Volume 1 The Beginning of the Late Han Dynasty Chapter 74 The Burning of the Golden Gate (3)
"Kill!"
The soldiers of the special service battalion roared angrily, clenching their knives and guns and slashing at Sergeant Xiliang.
Five or six Xiliang soldiers couldn't react, "Ah......" screamed, and fell on their backs with their hands covering the wounds.
But more Xiliang sergeants were holding their blades, a block, and blocked the sudden attack.
"Peng Peng Bao ......" knives and guns come and go.
The two sides fought fiercely in the small hotel lobby.
Yan Qing cut off half of the head of a Xiliang soldier with a knife, "poof", red blood pillars, white brains, splashed all over the ground. He hissed and yelled, "Don't let anyone go!" …… I'm going to kill the officer at the door! ”
Yan Qing jumped out of the hotel gate.
The Xiliang team at the door saw that the situation was not good, grabbed the Xiliang war horse beside him, crossed over, turned over on the horse's back, and was about to escape.
"Where to go!"
When Yan Qing saw it, he threw the steel knife in his hand lightly, corrected his grip to a reverse grasp, and threw the steel knife as a throwing gun.
"Bang!"
The Xiliang team was blocking the bronze broadsword, and the steel knife "banged", crashed away and rebounded and fell to the ground.
But at least it was delayed.
Yan Qing made a force under his feet, and he jumped on the back of the team's horse.
The two arms were like iron pincers, tightly squeezing the team's arms from behind, preventing them from moving and preventing them from lifting the bronze broadsword.
The team was screaming and struggling, the back of the head pounding backwards, the elbows pounding backwards and the elbows kept slamming back.
Yan Qing made a fierce force, "plop", and the two fell off the horse, both of them snorted.
"Bang", the bronze broadsword in the forehand of the team fell far away.
Yan Qing endured the pain, twisted the team's arm with her right hand, inserted her left hand into the team's crotch, and pressed his chest tightly with her knees, twisting the team's ravioli.
The team was so strong that they couldn't move, they gasped for breath and shouted, "There's a kind of knife-to-knife fight!" ”
Yan Qing also gasped for breath, and smiled: "Wrestling...... Wrestling is also a martial art! ”
The team was struggling, and the two of them threw dust on the ground.
Yan Qingqiang held down this team that was as strong as a brute bull and kept struggling, and used his dexterity to unload this brute bull to exert force. On one side, his right foot kept hooking the steel knife not far away.
Finally touched the steel knife, Yan Qing grabbed it, and stabbed into the chest of the Xiliang team with a "poof".
"Ah......" accompanied by a scream, the resistance of the wild bull under him gradually disappeared.
"Bah......" Yan Qing spit out a mouthful of dirt in her mouth, groaned and got up, and scolded secretly: "This Xiliang Barbarian Bull is even more difficult to deal with than Li Kui." ”
Haha, I just don't know how Li Kuiruo feels when he listens to Yan Qing's words here, I'm afraid that he will be like thunder, his strange eyes widened, and he shouted: "Come on, come on, Yan Xiaoyi, we will fight for three hundred rounds."
Yan Qing didn't dare to gasp, pulled out the steel knife, and rushed to the hotel lobby.
At this time, the fight inside was also over.
Nearly twenty Xiliang sergeants fell in a pool of blood.
However, there are more than ten soldiers of the special service battalion who have already pledged their lives to the country.
Yan Qing looked at the rest of the soldiers of the special service battalion who were sitting on the ground in the lobby of the hotel, carrying bloodstained knives and guns, and were grieving. With a hoarse throat, he said softly, "Clean it up......"
The air is unusually oppressive. was silent, everyone was silent and didn't say a word, only hurriedly carrying the bodies of their comrades-in-arms and the bodies of Sergeant Xiliang.
"Bring in the corpses of that team. Outside the door, the horses were killed......" Yan Qing arranged.
The remaining people in the back hall have long been sent down the tunnel. Sister-in-law Gu and Sun Xin, as well as a few guys, worked together to move back to the stepping stone and stone mill, and hurried back to the front hall with a sharp knife.
Sister-in-law Gu looked at the corpses of her sons and daughters piled up in the hall, at the severed limbs and stumps on the ground, with rivers of blood, and at the blood stains and sad expressions on the brothers' bodies. She howled and cried again, kept beating her strong chest, raised her head and shouted, "Brother Yanqing...... Brethren...... It's all my fault, it's all my ......."
Sun Xin hugged the Hun family who was hysterical and blamed himself.
Yan Qing slammed down the steel knife and said softly: "Sister-in-law Gu, I don't blame you, you are fiery and benevolent...... Blame, blame Dong Zhuo, blame this world, cannibalistic world! ”
He looked at the brothers and said, "Brothers, you are all hard-working and loyal men in Luoyang and Shouzhang, and it is the way of the world that has caused you to fight here and face death here. What we and the living brothers have to do is to push the way of the world and return the sky to a bright and blue sky. ……”
He didn't say it anymore, and it wasn't appropriate to say it now.
Waving his hand, he said, "Let's all go to the hole...... Grab a break. ”
The soldiers of the special battalion entered the hole in silence, and Sun Xin and Gu's sister-in-law helped each other into the hole.
Yan Qing smashed the oil jar and wine jar in the store with a bang, and lit the torch in his hand.
"Pong"
Flames rose in the lobby of the hotel, burning the seats, walls, windows, and beams of the hotel; The fire burned the bodies of the soldiers of Xiliang, and reduced them to ashes; The flames burned the bodies of the soldiers of the Secret Service Battalion and sent them to heaven......
This is just a small corner of the huge Luoyang capital.
Within a radius of several hundred miles from the vast Luoyang, Li Ru led 10,000 Xiliang iron cavalry to rob the Han Emperor Liu Xie and his concubines, driving countless officials, chamberlains, palace maids, and servants to Chang'an. There are countless manned cars, and the cars loaded with gold beads and treasures to play silk and satin are innumerable, densely packed, the cars and horses are connected, like a long dragon, not seeing the head and tail, and staggering and congesting forward.
Later, Li Dao, Guo Yan, Fan Chou, and Zhang Ji drove millions of people in Luoyang. The common people have a team of tens of thousands of people, and there is a team of Xiliang Iron Cavalry behind them to urge the superintendent, if there is a late walk, the Xiliang sergeant behind him immediately raises a sharp blade, raises the knife in his hand, and kills people on the road. The number of people who died by the roadside is innumerable. The four generals Li Dao, Guo Yan, Fan Chou, and Zhang Ji even indulged their officers and men in burning, killing, and looting, prostituting people's wives and daughters, and robbing people of money and food.
Along the way, the sound of crying and wailing shook the heavens and the earth; It's terrible, and it's hell.
Dong Zhuo himself is about to set off. Before leaving, he ordered the entire Luoyang to be burned. More than 10,000 soldiers and horses were dispatched to set fire to the east gate, burning the houses of the residents, and even setting fire to the temple palace.
He even sent Lu Bu to excavate the tombs of the first emperor and concubine of the Han Dynasty, and looted the burial jewels and gold and jade inside. With the whole beginning above, the soldiers below took the opportunity to dig up the graves of the officials and civilians, no matter who you are, as long as the tomb is a little larger and more luxurious, dig it up to your heart's content, throw away the bones inside, and loot the burial materials.
Dong Zhuo stood on the car, turned his bloated body, looked back at the fire in Luoyang City, his face showed endless fierce light, and he laughed loudly: "Burn, burn, burn the temple, burn the palace, burn the entire Luoyang...... Rob, let you rob! ”
The Great Migration lasted several days and nights.
The fire lasted for several days and nights.
……
Let's return to the army of the princes of the Twenty Towns in front of the Tiger Prison Pass.
The atmosphere in the current coalition camp is very strange. The military horses of each town ignored the tiger prison that was close at hand and weakly defended, and all of them shrank in their own camps, with swords and guns in hand, concentrating on vigilance but showing joy on their faces.
All this is the credit of the knighthood.
On the same day, several chamberlains hurried to Luoyang, got down to the tiger prison, and held the edict in front of Yuan Shao, the leader of the big tent of the allied army, and rewarded the princes of the twenty roads one by one.
Everyone was pleasantly surprised, those who had no officials were crowned officials, those who were weak were promoted, and those who were high-ranking officials were knighted, and they were all happy. Even the last two princes of the town, Song Jiang and Liu Bei, were resealed.
Qianshou Zhang County ordered Song Jiang to be the East Ping Xiang, General Zhenwei, and the rank was 2,000 stones.
Moved to Pingyuan County and ordered Liu Bei to be the prime minister of the plains, and to ask for General Kou, with a rank of 600 stones.
In fact, Song Shijiang didn't know much about the official title of Lujue, and he didn't have much time to study it after entering the Han Dynasty. Fortunately, there was a great Confucian disciple Chen Gong Chen Gongtai behind him, and he quietly explained to Song Shijiang.
Song Jiang's Dongping Xiang is a county-level official title, the country is equivalent to a county, and he is the highest administrator of the county, with a rank of 2,000 stones. He is also a military officer, General Zhenwei, although he is a miscellaneous general, he also has four grades. is so civil and military, he is already a feudal official!
Liu Bei is not bad, he was originally a 300-stone rank county commander. Now the right move county order is the state minister, of course, this state minister is not the same as Song Shijiang's state minister. Song Shijiang's state minister is the state minister of Dongping Kingdom, and Liu Bei's state minister is the state minister of Houguo Pingyuan State, so the rank is 600 stones. However, he was also given a military position, and he was also a miscellaneous general, with a fifth-rank rank. But it's also a heavy reward.
Song Shijiang and Liu Bei sat at the bottom of the row, and the two sat opposite each other, both looking at each other with joy.
Song Shijiang smiled "hehe", bowed his hand to Liu Bei, and congratulated: "Congratulations to Brother Xuande." ”
Liu Bei also returned the salute, smiled respectfully and said, "Congratulations for Brother Gongming." The preparation is only for 600 stone Lu officials, how can he and Gongming brother 2,000 stones.
Song Shijiang grinned and said modestly: "It's the same." In fact, he was also excited in his heart, although he had been prepared for more than a year, that is, he was prepared to compete for the best in the world. However, Lao Tzu was originally an obscure poor teacher who graduated from college for a few years, but now he has really sat in the position of Taishou and general, which is equivalent to the secretary of the regional city and municipal party committee and the commander of the military division in later generations. Wow, I can't imagine it, I can't help but laugh.
Zhang Fei, who was standing behind Liu Bei, laughed loudly and roared: "So, General Song, why don't you come to your camp tonight to congratulate?" …… Straight lady thief, after eating your wine, now I feel very tasteless about what wine I eat. ”
Song Shijiang was summoned back to his senses by Zhang Fei's thunderous roar, and hurriedly replied: "General Zhang, General Zhang has this Yaxing, does Jiang dare to agree?" Tonight, please come with the three generals, and the wine is enough......"
Zhang Fei laughed and shouted, "Tonight, you can get rid of the prohibition of alcohol in your escort army." Well...... The prohibition of alcohol was lifted by the three Naruda brothers. A certain family wants to have a good drink with the three of them......"
When it came to drinking, Zhang Fei immediately danced with his eyebrows, and he also forgot the time of the occasion. Liu Bei heard his third brother speak louder and louder, and the more he talked, the more excited he became, so he had to remind him of a dry cough of "uh-huh".
Well, the last two towns fell silent.
This silence was the strangeness of the atmosphere in the tent.
