Chapter 156: Luoyang Surprise Attack

The three outlines are really life, and morality is the root. ----------Southern song dynasty. Wen Tianxiang "Song of Righteousness"

It is said that Chen Long and his subordinate Wuxi soldiers, the commander of the Wuxi soldiers, Sha Moke, led 10,000 Wuxi soldiers to sneak thousands of miles in the dark night, taking advantage of the confrontation between Yuan Shu and Zhang Liao, and successfully bypassed the southern city of Luoyang and entered the Beibi Mountain area to hide.

According to intelligence, in addition to the 10,000 troops loyal to Dong Zhuo in Luoyang City, there are also 5,000 Praetorian Guards led by Shisun Rui. If Long Chen can convince Shi Sun Rui to help him, then the balance of power will be advantageous, and at least he can remain neutral. But his two identities were not enough to convince Shi Sun Rui, and Chen Long remembered Wang Yun, the former great Situ Wang Yun, who was guarding the tomb of Emperor Wen of Han Ling in the northern suburbs of Luoyang.

Chen Long thought about it for a while and felt that it was feasible, so he asked Lu Chang to follow, brought some personal soldiers, and still pretended to be Yan Baihu and Yan Yu, and crossed the mountains to Wenling. Guarding Wenling, but a few veterans, when they heard that they came to find Wang Yun, they all looked at everyone strangely, thinking that there were no officials to see Wang Yun, pointed to a small thatched hut with a courtyard on the edge of Wenling, and made a gesture to please enter by yourself.

Chen Long led people into the small courtyard, only to see mixed peanut trees, withered grass everywhere, and no one pruned them. Under the sun, a person with white hair, gray clothes, is sleeping soundly in a rocking chair, a piece of saliva in his mouth, flowing into his neck along the corner of his mouth, where is there still a little bit of the high and powerful in the past? You must know that Wang Yun was only in his fifties at this time, and Chen Long felt for the first time that even if he saved Wang Yun's life, I am afraid that he would be worse than dead.

In Chen Long's light cough, Wang Yun was slightly startled, and his old eyes were dizzy and looked at everyone in front of him. After a while, he suddenly recognized that it was Yan Baihu in front of him, so he stood up in shock, and he was dizzy again, sat back in the rocking chair, and muttered: "General Yan is here, but the old man's death is here?" ”

Chen Long's heart moved, and he understood that Wang Yun still thought he was Dong Zhuo's confidant, so he hurriedly said: "Wang Situ, don't be impatient. Wang Yun suddenly heard someone call him Situ, and couldn't help but recall the old things, lowered his head and sighed deeply.

Chen Long continued: "At the poetry meeting of Lord Cai Yong Cai that day, I just asked Situ if the monks Sun Rui, Yang Xun and others often gathered, why did Situ rush to send assassins to assassinate me? ”

These words were prominent, and Wang Yun's mental defense line was almost shattered. Wang Yun simply closed his eyes and ignored it, and Chen Long said again: "Chun Yuqiong's arrow that shot me is in my hand, and the feathers on the tail are your big white goose tail feathers, Situ has nothing to say, right?" ”

Wang Yun was shocked in his heart, thinking that Dong Zhuo sent Yan Baihu to kill him because of Diao Chan's disappearance, but he didn't expect Yan Baihu to come to investigate his anti-Dong position, and also pulled out Shi Sun Rui, Yang Xun and others.

Chen Long smiled and looked at Wang Yun, who was gritting his back molars, and suddenly said, "If I came to discuss with Situ today, how to exterminate the Dong thief, how can Situ teach me?" ”

Wang Yun's eyes widened violently and looked at Long Chen in disbelief. Chen Long said calmly: "When I said that to Situ that day, I really wanted to join the anti-Dong alliance as soon as possible, but I didn't expect to be misunderstood by Situ as Dong Zhuo's secret agent, and he also killed the killer." Fortunately, I am blessed with a great life, otherwise I would have been a dry bone in the grave. ”

Wang Yun finally opened his mouth, and a hoarse voice came: "What General Yan said is a thing, it is really unbelievable. Want to use me against Shi Sun Rui? Unfortunately, I had no idea. ”

Chen Long smiled bitterly: "To this day, Situ still can't figure it out. Dong Thief said nothing in the court, if he knew that Shisun Rui was plotting rebellion, what evidence would he need to kill him? I've worked so hard to come here just to sort out your black materials? Ridiculous, ridiculous. ”

Wang Yun thought about it, turned his head and asked, "Then what do you want to come here with all your hard work?" ”

Chen Long hurriedly said: "Situ, I have a plan to assassinate Dong Zhuo in a few days, and I need the cooperation of General Shisun Rui's five thousand soldiers and horses, or at least let him remain neutral." After I succeed in killing Dong, I can block the counterattack of Dong Zhuo's guards for me, or don't go all out to pursue my people. ”

After that, he took out a white silk cloth, dipped it in an ink pen, and asked Wang Yun to write a letter. Wang Yun finally took the brush and asked, "Shisun Rui is only a few thousand people, are you sure that the assassination of Dong will succeed?" Chen Long nodded vigorously and said, "Please write Situ quickly, I have to go back to the city as soon as possible." Wang Yun waved and swiped.

After successfully getting Wang Yun's letter, Chen Long and the others went back to the valley where the Wuxi soldiers were hiding, and it was already dusk. Chen Long saw that everyone was alive and well after resting during the day, and after letting the soldiers have a full meal, he took advantage of the night to pull up the team and go straight to the exit of the Beibi Mountain tunnel.

According to the plan prepared in advance, before Chen Long's troops entered the tunnel, they assembled in the cave outside the tunnel, which was very large and happened to cover the whereabouts of thousands of people. When all the soldiers saw the tunnel, they were all excited and inexplicable, but Chen Long was the first to say that anyone who leaked the location of the tunnel would be a capital offense after verification.

Chen Long first took his own special forces team of 100 people, let Lu Chang be the main general, and quietly entered the North Palace along the tunnel, and hid in the unattended sleeping palace of the dead ghost Emperor Han Ling, which was very safe. With the flag flower artillery as the number, no matter whether the troops outside succeed in destroying Dong or not, once the operation begins, the task of the hundred-man team here is to take away Emperor Han Xian, make Chang'an the only center of the Han family, eliminate the situation of confrontation between the two courts, and let the officials below end the split. This is a must-win move that he and Xi Zhicai planned together before coming to Luoyang.

After Chen Long settled the special forces, he and Lu Chang still pretended to be brothers of the Yan family, and came out of the tunnel near the Qinglou through the tunnel exit near the Qinglou, and easily found Shisun Rui's mansion to ask for a meeting.

The 5,000 people in the hands of Shi Sun Rui were the Praetorian Guards under Chun Yuqiong and Jian Shuo. Since these two people died and fled, Dong Zhuo won the hearts of the people, coupled with Wang Yun's insistence, and finally symbolically retained a special force to protect the emperor and appointed Shi Sun Rui as the main general.

Shisun Rui was about to sleep, and suddenly listened to the report of his subordinates, General Yan Baihu asked to see, and couldn't help but be suspicious, this Yan Baihu is Dong Zhuo's henchman, Wang Yun failed to assassinate him, and also caused Chun Yuqiong to flee, and I don't know if Wang Yun's daughter Diao Chan is missing, does it have anything to do with him? Didn't I hear that he was going back to the meeting? Coming back so soon? And why did you find me? Don't...... Did Dong Zhuo ask him to test me? Alas, it's really a night owl who comes into the house and doesn't come for anything.

With full of doubts, Shi Sunrui arranged fifty sword and axe men in the ear room next to the living room and met Yan Baihu in the living room. After some false greetings, Chen Long asked him to retreat, and seeing that Shi Sun Rui's face was full of doubts, he hurriedly signaled that he had no weapons. After everyone retreated, Chen Long took out Wang Yun's letter from his arms and said, "General Shisun, please read this letter first, and then let's talk about it again, so as to avoid a lot of useless tongues." ”

Shi Sun Rui secretly used his internal strength to prevent Chen Long's sneak attack, and when he read the letter, it was actually a very familiar Wang Yun font, and he burst into tears for a while. After looking at it for a long time, Fang wiped away his tears and said, "I didn't expect General Yan to be also a member of my generation." Lord Situ has always been good? Because of Dong Thief's eyeliner, I never dared to look at Wang Situ. ”

Before Chen Long entered the mansion, he had already thought that there might be eyeliner arranged by Li Ru. Chen Long was not too shy about making a move tonight, if Li Ru suspected Shisun Rui and sent troops to surround Shisun Mansion, it would inevitably reduce Dong Zhuo's defense, which would be convenient for him. If Shi Sun Rui and Li Ru's soldiers merged, they couldn't ask for it, and the bet was that Li Ru and Dong Zhuo didn't know that they had 10,000 strange soldiers along the tunnel in their hands.

Shi Sun Rui sent Yan Baihu away, knowing that General Yan would take action tonight, he was excited, and he didn't believe that he could succeed in assassinating Dong. According to the agreement just now, Shi Sun Rui came to the outside of the palace and lit the Praetorian Guards to keep vigil. Li Ru heard the eyeliner that two people had visited Shi Sun Rui and followed him to the vicinity of the Qinglou and disappeared, Shi Sun Rui rushed to the palace to be on duty, and he couldn't figure it out for a while, so he had to order his subordinates to keep a close eye on Shi Sun Rui's movements, and secretly transferred part of Niu Fu's troops to the palace and Dong Zhuo's mansion to set up defenses, and Li Su's troops organized a curfew.

Everything was ready, Chen Long and the others returned to the exit of Beibi Mountain from the tunnel, and introduced 10,000 Wuxi soldiers in the early morning and darkness. As soon as Shamoke returned to the capital for the first time, he didn't expect that there would be such a magnificent tunnel leading directly to the palace, and he couldn't help but be amazed and walk in the forefront with high spirits. The troops gradually infiltrated from the exit near the Qinglou, and under the cover of the night, they were fully armed and assembled in the direction of Dong Zhuo's Taishi Mansion along the predetermined route.

After walking a short distance, I met the first soldiers on curfew patrol. The leader Shamoke was very vigilant, and took the lead in squatting in the darkness under the wall, and the soldiers behind him were all specially trained, and they all stopped moving one by one and squatted down to cover their figures. Just walked and stopped, and suddenly there was a loud shout from the front: "What person!"

Seeing that his body was exposed, Shamoko struck out like a fly, silently in the dark night, knocking the patrolman shouting in front of him to the ground. At the same time, a volley of artillery guns was fired, which exploded at a high altitude, signaling a full-scale attack.

The three troops, seeing the flag flower artillery blooming in the air, began to act at the same time. Shisun Rui led the troops and rushed to the Taishi Mansion, but encountered Niu Fu's 3,000 military horses blocking the way halfway and started a scuffle. Shisun Rui has many soldiers, Niu auxiliary soldiers are strong, and the two sides can be tied and strangled together. Lu Chang's special forces, after entering the North Palace from the palace of Emperor Ling of Han, because there was no army of Shisun Rui to stop them, they easily defeated the small guard defense, went deep into the palace of Emperor Han Xian, took the sleeping Emperor Han Xian away, went out of the city through the tunnel, and quickly ran to Chang'an.

Chen Long and Shamoke's troops rushed forward, temporarily avoiding Li Su's large army, and quickly killed around Dong Zhuo's Mansion, where they encountered Niu Fu's remaining 2,000 guards guarding Taishi's Mansion. What Chen Long wanted was a quick victory, and ordered the troops to surround the Taishi Mansion and attack wildly, the Wuxi soldiers were not afraid of death, and for a while there was the sound of crossbows breaking through the air, and the troops who were fighting with Niu Fu and Shisun Rui heard the sound of fighting behind them, and fought desperately, and were chased and killed by Shisun Rui, with countless casualties.

Niu Fu took the lead, fought through the siege, and saw that countless black-armored soldiers had already invaded the Taishi Mansion, knowing that something was wrong, so he had to organize the remnants of the army and desperately rush inward, intending to snatch out Dong Zhuo. Unexpectedly, a horse flew around, and the iron thistle was like a hammer of Thor, smashing heavily on Niu Fu's back, Niu Fu only felt that the world was spinning, fell off the horse, and was followed by Shamoke, stabbed to death with another shot, and dismounted and beheaded. Poor Niu Fu has 5,000 strong soldiers inside and outside, who have no owner for a while, and are heavily wrapped by tens of thousands of Qinglong troops, killed and wounded.

Li Su's main force of soldiers and horses finally arrived, joining the melee around the Taishi Mansion, because he was concentrated in number and all of them were cavalry, he was rushed out of a gap, and in the dark, Dong Zhuo's fat body rode a fast horse and followed Li Su out of the gate of the Taishi Mansion. Dong Zhuo's crotch dismounted and was running wildly, and suddenly a unit of troops stabbed at him, and the first general held a steel gun in his hand, shouting: "Dong thief is leaving!" I've been waiting here for a long time!"
