Chapter 367: Fatal Temptation
Dong Zhuo raised the wine gourd high and poured it head-on, and the liquor in the wine gourd spilled down Dong Zhuo's head.
Some of the drinks fell in Dong Zhuo's grinning mouth, some poured on Dong Zhuo's forehead, and some even wet Dong Zhuo's long hair and beard.
A generation of masters, heroic and dry!
When the wine in Dong Zhuo's wine gourd was poured, Dong Zhuo slowly closed his eyes, and under the support of the weapons of Liu Bei, Zhao Yun and others, he stood on the ground and died of exhaustion.
Dong Zhuo is dead!
The soul of the Xiliang Iron Rider is dead.
Died under the siege of Liu Bei, Zhao Yun and other five people.
This news, like a cool breeze in the evening, spread all over the ears of every Xiliang Iron Rider, making the 100,000 Xiliang Iron Riders feel sad and feel a chill.
All the Xiliang Iron Cavalry knew about this battle, they were defeated, they lost.
But no one will complain about Dong Zhuo, complain about Dong Zhuo, complain about Dong Zhuo's hands-off shopkeeper, complain that Dong Zhuo doesn't know how to recruit talents and reuse talents, after all, there is no Dong Zhuo, and the Xiliang Iron Rider here is counted as one, and he continues to live a life of drinking blood in a desolate place like Xiliang.
How could he have had the opportunity to come to the capital Luoyang, and run rampant in Luoyang City, and everyone was afraid of wolves and tigers.
"Zhuang, worthy of being a traitor, dying heroically, dying on the battlefield, living up to the prestige of a good family. Prepare a cup for you and send you on your way. ”
Liu Bei also turned his hand and took off the wine jug hanging from his waist, most generals who marched and fought would prepare a wine jug for themselves and decorate the wine, not for drinking for fun, but to keep a decent place for themselves.
A few people returned to the ancient battle, and the general's horse leather shrouded was returned.
No one dares to say that he will not be like Dong Zhuo, surrounded by layers of enemy troops, if such a moment happens to him, and he doesn't want to surrender, if he wants to take the full name, he has to have a good drink and practice it for himself, so that his heart can be more comfortable.
As soon as Liu Bei took the lead, Dian Wei, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei all followed suit, took out their own wine jugs, and sprinkled wine around Dong Zhuo, paying tribute to Dong Zhuo's heroic opponent.
Dong Zhuo's death, for these generals, is just the death of a thief general, but for Cheng Yuanzhi and Yuan Shao, these heroes, it is a giant, and there are more benefits to share.
Therefore, heroes are heavy heroes, military generals know military generals, only Dian Wei and others can better understand Dong Zhuo's heroism before his death.
As soon as Dong Zhuo died, the army of Zhuhou was like taking a shot of heart, and their combat strength increased by leaps and bounds, killing Dong Zhuo's army to the point that they had to flee in the wilderness.
"The master is dead, run away." Niu Fu stood at the back of the battlefield, and saw Dong Zhuo being killed from a distance, and was instantly frightened to death, threw the big knife in his hand, shouted, and fled first.
As soon as Niu Fu fled, Li Ru, who wanted to continue to organize the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to fight against the Zhuhou army, felt a chill in his heart, so he had to abandon the idea and abandon the panicked Xiliang army, which was generally scattered and scattered, and absconded alone.
As a military advisor, Li Ru fled, and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry had no one to rely on at this time, so they fled for their lives and scattered and collapsed.
"General Niu, quickly gather the remnants of the army, and the soldiers will be united, and we will flee back to Chang'an, and we will still be able to save our lives and recuperate." Guo Yan was also on the run, following behind Niu Fu, but Guo Yan was still worried about the soldiers and horses under Dong Zhuo's command, these Xiliang Iron Cavalry were all obtained after a long period of training, and it was a pity to abandon them in this Luoyang City in vain.
If Niu Fu can collect some remnants, even if more than 100,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry can't keep all of them, and get back 350,000 soldiers and horses, then if he goes to Chang'an, he can also defend the land of Chang'an.
"That's right, General Niu, I'm waiting for a general, but I can't do without soldiers and horses, General Niu, you are the son-in-law of the Taishi, you give an order, there will be a large number of Xiliang Iron Cavalry who will flee with General Niu, and the general is also willing to conspire with General Niu to Chang'an, recruit troops and horses, wait for the times to change, and make a comeback again." Fan Chou was afraid that he would escape too slowly, and was caught up by the army of Zhuhou, so he quickly chased after Niu Fu and began to persuade Niu Fu.
Niu Fu finally saw that Guo Yan and Fan Chou, two acquaintances, were also a little more stable in his heart, and no longer looked like a frightened bird, so he stabilized his mind and said anxiously:
"General Guo, General Fan, great, with you assisting the general, it is not difficult for us to gather the remnants of the army, kill back to Chang'an, and start again. In this way, you and the generals will be together, each of them will gather the remnants of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and when they arrive in Chang'an, we will wait for the three generals to join forces, and we will definitely be able to make a comeback. ”
was said by Guo Yan and Fan Chou, Niu Fu's mind began to liven, and he kept sending signals to the Xiliang Iron Cavalry who was fleeing beside him, and used military orders to suppress the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to converge and approach Niu Fu's side.
When Guo Yan and Fan Chou heard this, their hearts were relieved, fortunately, Niu Fu still had some courage and did not just take care of himself and absconded, otherwise, even if he fled to Chang'an, he would not be able to hold Chang'an for long without soldiers and horses in his hands.
Guo Yan and Fan Chou widened the distance between each other, and like Niu Fu, they began to collect the remnants of the army while fleeing, and constantly expanded the escape team.
When Niu Fu, Guo Yan and Fan Chou escaped from Luoyang City, they found that there were really a lot of Xiliang Iron Cavalry under their command, not to mention 30,000, but most of them were injured, or their faces were as white as earth, they had no morale and ambition, and their combat power was almost equal to nothing.
As soon as Dong Zhuo died, the battlefield ended quickly, and some of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry who couldn't escape were washed by the blood in their minds, and they calmed down, and it was better to die than to live, and they began to dismount and surrender, and were tied up by the army of Zhuhou and connected into a string.
Luoyang City, the gate of the imperial palace.
Cheng Yuanzhi led Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Sun Jian to slowly enter and found Liu Xie, the son of heaven, and others.
Cheng Yuanzhi breathed a sigh of relief and summoned Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Sun Jian and others to the palace hall to discuss matters.
After killing Dong Zhuo, it's time to start sharing the spoils, Cheng Yuanzhi has the intention to appease all the candidates, and it is best to send the candidates from all walks of life away, and let the candidates return to their own territories.
And Luoyang City, the ancient capital of hundreds of years, Cheng Yuanzhi did not plan to give it to all the people, occupied Luoyang City, and guarded the palace, which has many benefits, which are self-evident.
Coercing the Son of Heaven to order the candidates, don't say Dong Zhuo, it is a fatal temptation for any candidate.
"Ben Chu, Meng De, Wentai, this time to discuss Dong, thanks to the three of you, you are so young, but you are young and promising, it is really a blessing for the Han family, I think the people will live a good life because of you in the future."
Cheng Yuanzhi first said politely, and then added:
"At the beginning, you have meritorious service in punishing thieves, this Sikong plans to welcome back the young emperor, and ask the Son of Heaven for merit, rewarding you as Jizhou pastor, Meng De is also courageous, can be used as Yuzhou pastor, and Wentai is as brave as a tiger, can be expressed as Jingzhou pastor, I don't know what the three of you want?"
