Chapter 153: Burning Luoyang
Xuzhou.
Ding Yuan's troops and Kong Rong and Ma Teng's troops have been fighting at the border of Xuzhou, and the two sides can now be said to be fighting very hotly, from the initial small battlefield to the large battlefield.
At the beginning, Ma Teng and Kong Rong wanted to carry out a decapitation operation or assault operation on Ding Yuan's department.
However, because the situation on the battlefield is changing too quickly. Ma Teng and Kong Rong's side had to switch to frontal combat.
The previous plans played a role to a certain extent, and they were not useless.
On the frontal battlefield in the early stage. Ding Yuan's unit did not get any head start. It was repulsed by Kong Rong and Ma Teng's troops.
However, after Ding Yuan's subordinates put the follow-up troops into the frontal battlefield.
The situation changed in an instant. At the beginning, Ma Teng and Kong Rong were on the side of the advantage, but they slowly turned into a disadvantage.
Kong Rong and Ma Teng's troops had to temporarily retreat some distance.
And how could the troops on Ding Yuan's side give Kong Rong and Ma Teng a chance on their side.
Ding originally planned to take advantage of the victory to pursue, and was bound to take Xuzhou in one go. On the side of Xuzhou, when the fight was hot, great changes took place in Luoyang.
He Jin's troops. In the middle of the night, he raided the place where Liu Xie was. For a time, the people of Luoyang were struggling to make a living. The people fled out of the city in a hurry.
A huge Luoyang city. Overnight, most of it was burned. Too many people have been displaced.
Many people did not expect that the national capital would undergo such a big change. With the changes on the Luoyang side.
Before dawn, the news went to sweep the thirteen states. And Wang Yue, who was on his way to Luoyang, also got the news and was also shocked.
Wang Yue didn't expect He Jin's troops to be so fast and move so quickly.
He realized that he had to hurry to Luoyang, and if he didn't hurry up, His Majesty's side would be in danger.
At the same time, Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao, and Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang also got the news. They sent troops to support Luoyang.
Because they also understand that Liu Xie's side can't have an accident now.
Just when the action began on the side of the states.
At this time, Luoyang City.
He Jin stood on a high place, looking at the once glorious Luoyang City under his feet. After a night of devastation on his side, he is now unrecognizable.
At this time, He Jin looked into the distance and said lightly.
"Where are our people now?"
The person next to him said at this time.
"Tell the general, we have surrounded Luoyang City, and Liu Xie's department has been trapped by us."
He Jin nodded, and then said.
"Continue to force Liu Xie's side and launch a few more assaults, understand, Liu Xie is not so easy to kill."
I thought for a moment and then asked.
"By the way, what's going on in other states right now. And what's going on with Wang Yue? ”
The person next to him said at this time.
"Tell the general that Wang Yue's people are already on their way to this side. Our people are already holding them back, and they won't be there anytime soon. ”
He thought for a moment and then said.
"Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang, and Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao have also sent troops over. The distance on their side is still far away, and they will not reach Luoyang in a short time. ”
"At present, Ding Yuan's troops on the Xuzhou side have been pinned down by Kong Rong and Ma Teng's troops. The other is the Jizhou side. Yuan Shao's side seemed to be fighting with Yuan Shu's side. I don't think we can take care of it. ”
"Right now, there are only Cao Cao and Lin Chuan left, and Sun Jian's troops are left, but there doesn't seem to be any movement on their side."
At this time, He Jin said with a frown.
"I see. Try to hold Wang Yue's side, they should be the fastest to arrive. The others don't have to worry about it for the time being, they must take Liu Xie's side today, understand? Let's go down with the speed. ”
The person next to him said at this time.
"Okay general, let's arrange it."
At this time, He Jin looked at Luoyang City in front of him. Then he said.
"I will let this Luoyang City be buried with you. Wait, Liu Xie. I've put up with you for so many years. I'm going to make you pay for it this time. Let you know what pain is. ”
After thinking for a moment, he muttered.
"My sister's business, and my brother's business, have nothing to do with you. Don't think I don't know. Back then, my He family supported you so much, but in exchange for this. Since you are unkind, then don't blame me for being unjust. ”
At this time, Liu Xie and others, who were besieged in the palace wall, were very embarrassed. At this time, Liu Xie, looking at the few remaining troops in front of him, he knew. If you don't withdraw from your side, I'm afraid it's all gone.
After all, Liu Xie had already transferred most of the troops outside. He didn't expect He Jin to launch a surprise attack at this time.
If he knew, he wouldn't have been able to transfer all his troops out. The situation is already critical.
He Jin is determined to die by himself this time.
At this time. A bloodied guard rushed in and said.
"Your Majesty, they are coming, let's withdraw quickly. We can't stop it. The people on He Jin's side were like crazy, and they launched many head-to-head confrontations on our side. Our people can't stop it. Soon, the last few lines of defense will be breached. ”
Liu Xie waved his hand and said.
"I see. So much so that I underestimated this He Jin. He's a man of courage. Since he doesn't care about the overall situation of the world. Just shoot at me like that. He's a ruthless man. After enduring it for so many years, it broke out today. ”
"You're going to kill me with one blow. It's a pity. He didn't find out what was going on on my side. I still have some hole cards. It's just that He Jin's operation broke a lot of my deployment. What a bastard. ”
After thinking for a moment, he said.
"Since he wants to use this Luoyang City to bury with me. Then I'll let Luoyang City be buried with him. A Luoyang city. How can he be worthy? This time, I was careless again. ”
"I planted it a few times in Yuzhou, but I didn't expect this time. It was planted in He Jin's hands again. This really annoys me. These damn bunch. I'm going to make them pay, I will. ”
At this time, Liu Xie thought for a long time, and then said.
"Let the Ten Servants take their men and arrange them on the second line of defense. In addition, the speed informs our immediate troops. ”
At this time, the person next to him said.
"Yes, Your Majesty. I'll arrange it. ”
At this time, Liu Xie thought for a moment and said again.
"This time. Let the people of the Ten Standing Servants and He Jin's people stay there forever. Don't let them. Escaped, understand? ”
The person next to him said at this time.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
At this time, Liu Xie asked again.
"Are all the preparations we made before?"
The person next to him said at this time.
"Tell Your Majesty, it's all ready. I promise that the fire will be very strong and they will not be able to escape. We also have a lot of flammable materials around the perimeter. You can burn him for a few days and nights. ”
Liu Xie nodded at this time and said.
"Okay, you can arrange it then. See if I don't burn them all this time. is more ruthless, then let's see who is ruthless. ”
At this time, Liu Xie looked fiercely at the direction where He Jin was. If it weren't for him, he wouldn't be so embarrassed.
The layout here in Luoyang will all be destroyed in one fell swoop. Even if the matter in Luoyang is over, the impact will be great, and the prestige of the Eastern Han Dynasty will really not be there at that time.
When the time comes, I'm afraid it will really be doomed. Liu Xie actually knew it very well in his heart. He Jing just wanted to break the net with him, just to let the people of the world see clearly that this Eastern Han Dynasty has existed in name only.
It can be said that Hejing's plan was successful, and he did it.
With the shaking of Luoyang's side. The whole world was shaken. Luoyang, the national capital they once believed in. It has now fallen.
So what about them. Add to that what happened before, when today's inaction.
There has been a lot of anger among the people again. A new round of riots began to break out in various places. This is something that many people don't think of.
Originally, it was halfway through, the tri-state troops. When they received the news of the riots in the surrounding areas, they were also shocked.
I didn't expect this time, the change in Luoyang. It actually caused the anger of the people.
The troops in these three states had no choice but to return to the defense, and a large part of the people began to return to the defense and began to suppress the mob.
The only place that is more peaceful at the moment is Cao Cao and Sun Jian. Lin Chuan, where they are located, the state capital.
The Jizhou side has not been very peaceful recently, because of Yuan Shu's problems. Yuan Shao is now fighting with Yuan Shu, and the two sides have already started fighting.
The infighting in Jizhou will not last long. After all, Yuan Shao has the vast majority of military power.
Yanzhou, which supported Yuan Shu before, has now been subdued by Yuan Shao, so Yuan Shu has nothing to fight with Yuan Shao at all, and it can't compare to Yuan Shao's side, and Yuan Shao's side believes that the battle will end soon.
At the same time, Yuzhou also got the news. I didn't expect He Jin's movements to be so fast.
As soon as their side was deployed, He Jin's side began to act, and it can be said that the action was particularly fast. didn't give Liu Xie a chance to breathe at all.
At this time, Lin Chuan looked at the previous information and said.
"He Jin over there. I'm afraid it's going to work. If nothing else. Liu Xie is afraid that he will be killed by He Jinkeng over there. But I vaguely feel that Liu Xie is not so easy to kill, if there is really that easy to kill. Back in those days, they succeeded. What do you say? ”
Guo Jia said at this time.
"The lord is right, Liu Xie is not so easy to kill. Liu Xie is in Luoyang City, and there should be some back-up for them to escape. I think He Jin should know. ”
However, He Jin shouldn't know what Liu Xie's backhand is, and He Jin is probably also gambling this time. Bet on whose time is fast. ”
Cai Yong on the side said at this time.
"Definitely. He Jing is a thoughtful person, he can't fail to think of this. He Jin's situation over there. It seems that the attacks are quite violent. In fact, it should be forcing Liu Xie's side to retreat. ”
After thinking for a while, he said.
"When the time comes, He Jin's people will find him. Then order the troops to go to the assault there. I'm afraid that Liu Xie will really be gone at that time. Now it's up to who's fast. ”
At this time, Lin Chuan on the side said.
"Liu Xie is not simple, two people who are not simple are together. Interesting. It's just a pity. Those people in Luoyang City. Because of these two people, they are going to become displaced, and their families will be ruined. This time, I don't know how many people will die in the flight. ”
After thinking for a moment, he said.
"Over there in Xuzhou. Part of it is our reason. Luckily, we brought over all the families of the soldiers over there. There is not much loss on the Xuzhou side for the time being. If there are people fleeing to our side, try to save as many people as possible. ”
Guo Jia said at this time.
"Okay, my lord, we'll arrange it."
At this time, Lin Chuan thought for a moment and said again.
"Right now, it doesn't matter what happens to him over there. And Ding Yuan's side. What will happen to Liu Xie's side. Let's stabilize Yuzhou first. There is now a kind of civil unrest in other states. They were angry at Luoyang's changes. After all, these people still believe in the Eastern Han Dynasty. ”
After thinking for a moment, he said.
"I think the people on Liu Xie's side probably didn't expect that there would be a riot at this time. None of us thought of it. It seems that this time the heavens are helping He Jin. What do you say, I'm afraid the luck of the Eastern Han Dynasty is really coming to an end. In the next period of time, we will just consolidate the defense of Yuzhou. Do you understand? ”
Everyone said.
"Yes, my lord."
At this time, Wang Yue was rushing to Luoyang. He's gotten the news, it's serious.
Right now. Luoyang City has all fallen, and it is only a matter of time before His Majesty's side is breached.
But Wang Yue's side was still restrained by some people. Although the strength is not strong, it is still very annoying.
It's been holding them back for a while.
At this time, Wang Yue walked in the direction of Luoyang with a gloomy face. He vaguely felt that He Jin's attack this time was probably not so simple, and it seemed to have other purposes.
At this time, Wang Yue seemed to think of something. I'm afraid there's danger on Your Majesty's side.
Then, Wang Yue shouted loudly.
"Turn around and let's go that way, avoid all the spies, understand?"
Said by the person next to him.
"Yes, sir."
At this time, Wang Yue had already changed his direction and rushed to Liu Xie's side.
At this time, He Jin's side had already been rectified, and he was ready to retreat. He looked deeply at this Luoyang City.
He knew, after today. He never came back, and it was a little sad. The inheritance passed down from the ancestors to his own hands is gone.
If he wants to destroy it, he will destroy it in his own hand.
At this time, Liu Xie said lightly.
"Are you all ready?"
The person next to him said at this time.
"Your Majesty, the people on the side of the Ten Standing Servants have already handed over to the people on He Jing's side. Should we do it? ”
Liu Xie said lightly.
"Let's do it."
The person next to him said at this time.
"Yes, Your Majesty. We'll arrange it. ”
Just when He Jin's troops fought with the troops on the side of the Ten Standing Servants.
Suddenly, a fire broke out all around. Suddenly they felt that something was wrong. The people of the Ten Standing Servants suddenly felt that the situation was a little critical.
They understood, their side was abandoned. They tried to retreat, but they soon found out. They were already surrounded by fire.
The entire Luoyang City fell into a sea of fire in an instant. And the troops on He Jin's side seemed to have expected it and were retreating in an orderly manner.
When the people of the Ten Standing Servants saw it, they originally wanted to rush over, but the people on He Jin's side also set a big fire.
The road is cut off, and the people of the Ten Permanent Servants can't get through it at all.
At this time, He Jin, who was far away, looked at everything in front of him and said.
"I'm afraid that Liu Xie's side will escape from the secret passage. You keep an eye on your surroundings for any change. Speed to report, understand? ”
The person next to him said at this time.
"Yes, General. It's all already arranged. ”
He Jin looked ahead at this time and said.
"This time the heavens are helping me here, Liu Xie, you are dead, I will definitely find you."
"The shaking in Luoyang has already caused a lot of anger among some people. There have been riots everywhere, you know? You're really done this time. ”
After thinking for a moment, he muttered.
"This time, you have burned the inheritance of your ancestors. What else can you rely on? Able to make a comeback. You're left with nothing now. I'll be sure to send you on your way myself. Wait, Liu Xie. ”
Before He Jin's side to make a move. Dong Zhuo's troops stationed around Luoyang City had actually retreated.
It's not that He Jin gave him the news, but Dong Zhuo has already felt the murderous aura of Luoyang City. He also sensed that something was wrong with He Jin, so Dong Zhuo withdrew all the troops early.
At that time, Liu Xie's news was actually very closed. didn't notice that Dong Zhuo had secretly transferred the troops away.
If. If Liu Xie's side could find out at that time, maybe it wouldn't be the situation it is today.
At this time, Dong Zhuo looked at Luoyang in the distance, Luoyang eroded by the fire. Said lightly.
"A huge Luoyang City, if you say no, it's gone. He Jin is still a little scary. It's just a pity, it's not the right time. ”
