Previous Chapter

Jiang Bo was seen by the people arranged by Li Ru when he picked up Fan Yan's family, and quietly ran to Li Ru and whispered to Li Ru, who went to tell Dong Zhuo after learning about the incident.

Dong Zhuo said angrily: "Hmph! Now even a mere goalkeeper dares to betray me, Wen You, you say, am I Dong Zhuo so a failure, what's the reason why I'm sorry for him to let him betray me, it's just that, I'm really angry, you go... You go and arrest all his family and cut them down, I, Dong Zhuo, haven't left yet, how dare these little people do this! ”

Li Ru raised his hand and said, "The lord can't!" ”

"Why not? Before I even came out of this Luoyang, someone dared to make a move under my nose, does Wen You think I can turn a blind eye to this kind of behavior. ”

Li Ru said: "Now the keeper's family is afraid that he has already left the city, and the keeper must be thrown outside to Yuan Shao, who is eyeing us outside, and now the lord is still leaving as soon as possible as the best policy, I am afraid that it will be delayed again, my lord!" ”

Dong Zhuo thought about how to retaliate against the goalkeeper's family, but was suddenly awakened by Li Ru's words, and immediately asked Li Ru to prepare the carriage so that he could run away, and when he got into the carriage, he told Li Ru to go behind and burn the palace by the way, leaving nothing for Yuan Shao.

Li Ru then asked the two generals Li Dao and Guo Yan to protect Dong Zhuo on the road, and when they saw Dong Zhuo's carriage leaving with the army, they set fire to the palace!

………………

At this time, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were discussing how to take Luoyang and kill Dong Zhuo.

"Meng De, now my army has been besieging this Luoyang for a long time, if it weren't for Dong Zhuo holding the Son of Heaven, we would have already broken through this Luoyang hand blade Dong Zhuo's old horseman, and now it's not a way to wait for time and effort, do you have any good ideas?"

Cao Cao thought for a while when he heard this, and then blurted out a word, "Wait."

Yuan Shao didn't understand what Cao Cao meant, "Wait? "What are you waiting for, now we are all strong soldiers and horses, if you can't do it, let's take this Luoyang, I think Dong Zhuo is just tens of thousands of Liangzhou soldiers, I wait for hundreds of thousands of troops, can't I beat him with tens of thousands of shrimp soldiers and crabs?

After hearing this, Cao Cao shook his head and said, "If you attack by force, it's okay, but just like Brother Ben said before, if Dong Zhuo threatens us with the Son of Heaven, will we kill Dong Zhuo regardless of whether the Son of Heaven lives or dies, or let Dong Zhuo leave?" ”

Yuan Shao suddenly stopped talking, and all the princes were silent, and the entire hall was silent, only the sound of breathing.

A soldier came in from outside the hall and broke the silence.

"Newspaper~~"

The soldier rushed in and knelt on one knee and said to Yuan Shao in the hall: "General Qiyu, there is a person outside the camp who claims to be from the Zhang family in Luoyang and asks to see the general. ”

Yuan Shao heard it, Zhang family, why did this Zhang family see me?

Then he waved his hand and said, "Bring him in!" ”

"No!"

Then Jiang Bo entered the hall, looking at the princes looking at himself, and he also looked at the princes, his heart was very excited, and then looked at the person at the top, he knew that this was the alliance leader Yuan Shaohou bowed his hand and said: "Hello general and adults, I am Jiang Bo, the son-in-law of the Zhang family!" ”

Yuan Shao saw that this person was from the Zhang family in Luoyang, and said: "Oh, you are the Zhang family, why don't the people of the Zhang family stay in Luoyang City and run to our army to do something?" ”

Later, after Jiang Bo finished telling Yuan Shao and the others about his plan, Yuan Shao and the others were happy, they could take this Luoyang City and kill Dong Thief without a single soldier, why not do such a good thing.

Cao Cao was so happy to see Yuan Shao, and besides, this method was indeed a good idea, so he didn't think much about it.

Yuan Shao laughed and patted Jiang Bo on the shoulder and said, "You go back first and ask the general guarding the city to open the city gate, and I will wait for the army to arrive later." ”

After Jiang Bo left, everyone congratulated Yuan Shao on such a good opportunity, which made Yuan Shao smile from ear to ear, and Cao Cao shook his head secretly.

Jiang Bo, who returned to the city, hurriedly went to report to Fan Yan, Fan Yan first asked Jiang Bo to settle his family, and only after seeing Jiang Bo say that they were all settled, he listened to Jiang Bo's words next.

After listening to Jiang Bo's speech, Fan Yan was very excited, and hurriedly asked the soldiers below to prepare to open the city gate and wait for Yuan Shao and others to come over and enter the city.

Suddenly, a soldier rushed to the door, knelt in front of Fan Yan and said: "General, it's not good, it's not good, the palace is on fire, the boss of the fire is burning, the people are panicking and they are all taking their buckets to fetch water to fight the fire, and the city is about to become a pot of porridge at this moment." ”

Fan Yan was stunned on the spot, and just about to get the tea in his mouth, he knocked it to the ground, grabbed the soldier and shook it: "What about Dong Zhuo, where is Dong Zhuo's old horseman!" ”

The soldier said: "Dong Zhuo has already run away with all his wealth, general, Dong Zhuo has run away!" ”

Jiang Bo was also stunned by this news, and asked Fan Yan to quickly send someone to chase along the way, and Fan Yan immediately asked someone to chase after Dong Zhuo's departure.

After Yuan Shao entered Luoyang, he saw that the palace was burned down, and asked Fan Yan what was going on Fan Yan explained to Yuan Shao for a long time, and after knowing what was going on, he hurriedly shot someone to chase Dong Zhuo, and he took the princes to rectify the now dilapidated Luoyang City...
