Chapter 609: Upside Down and Away

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty Zhang Yangzhi, the Taishou of Hanoi, is almost on a hunger strike, and the special chief bookkeeper Dong Zhao has a hundred stones of rice and meat, and it is sent in the starry night!" Yang Biao led a group of people carrying cooked rice porridge and meat to Liu Xie, who had been unable to eat coarse tea and light rice for several days.

Liu Xie, who was so hungry that he had already smelled the aroma of rice, immediately disregarded his face, threw himself in front of these rice meats, and chewed them heavily.

"Your Majesty, eat slowly, don't choke!" Yang Biao looked at Liu Xie's eating appearance, and couldn't help but turn around and weep secretly.

Dong Zhao, who came with the sergeant, looked at this "palace" that was ventilated on all sides, and sighed: "Your Majesty has suffered!" ”

Liu Xie didn't react, he just cared about eating, perhaps, when people are hungry to a certain extent, they will only know how to eat, what kind of favor, what fame, fortune and face, where can they beat this most practical thing?

"It's not the way to go on like this!" Yang Biao and Dong Zhao walked out, met Dong Cheng and Yang Feng who were about to come to meet them, looked back at the dilapidated houses and said, "In the long run, where is the face of the Han family?" ”

"That's right, Li Dao Guo Yan's pursuers may chase after them at any time, if it weren't for Gao Yi and Neiying Jia Xu trying to stop their attack in the middle, it is estimated that there will be dead bodies here again at this moment!" Yang Fengdao, "This is what Jia Xu once agreed with me, and it's really difficult for him!" ”

"For today's plan, we must send someone to repair the Luoyang Palace as soon as possible, and on the other hand, step up the return of the Son of Heaven to Luoyang, although I don't know if the edict to the princes everywhere to rescue the Son of Heaven can work, but Luoyang is close to the Kanto, and it is impossible for Li Dao and Guo Yan not to be afraid of the power of Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Zhang Ji and others at that time!" Dong Chengdao.

"I disagree!" Suddenly, Li Le's voice came, he had already heard everyone's discussions, and walked over with an unkind face, "Although we are short of food and grass, but Li Dao and Guo Yan's food and grass are even worse, I heard that their subordinate general Duan Xuan Wu Xi has betrayed them and occupied Chang'an and Yicheng, their situation is worse than ours, why should we run?" ”

Dong Zhao said: "Luoyang is the place where the Son of Heaven built the capital, and Anyi is a small ground, how can it accommodate a car?" It is right to return to Luoyang today. ”

Li Le smiled: "What a group of cowards, you wait for Feng to go, I only live here." ”

"You!" Yang Feng was furious, drew his sword and pointed at Li Le, "I've endured you for a long time, haven't you been powerful enough these days?" Do you still want to put Your Majesty in danger again? ”

"If you have the ability, you will stab!" Li Le was not afraid, and his hand touched the hilt of the sword, "Anyway, Hu Cai is dead, and I have nothing to be nostalgic about!" ”

"It's nonsense!" Yang Biao said angrily, "The Son of Heaven is above, the enemy is current, you still have the heart to fight!" ”

"Hmph, for the sake of Lord Situ's face, I don't care about you!" Yang Feng put the sword in the sheath and left with hatred.

Li Le also snorted and left.

Dong Zhao said: "Now that the army's morale is unstable, it is better to start tomorrow morning and return to the east, so as not to change!"

The rest of the people nodded in agreement.

Late at night, Yang Biao and Xu Shu were talking in a secret place.

"The lord is alone against Li Dao and Guo Yan's pursuit, and I'm worried that something will happen to him!" The first to speak was Xu Shu, although he still had an extraordinary bearing in the night, it was difficult to hide the tiredness on his face.

After listening to Xu Shu's words, Xu Huang said worriedly: "I'm also a little worried, but before leaving, the main bus agent must escort His Majesty to Luoyang safely, which is really difficult!"

Yang Biao frowned and said: "Gao Fujun once said that if the method of moving the Son of Heaven to Luoyang is not feasible, he will try to escort the Son of Heaven to Yanzhou under Cao Cao, and it seems that this is the only way!"

Xu Huang was a little suspicious and said, "That Cao Cao?" Seems to be a moody man, is his loyalty to the Han family reliable? ”

Xu Shu said: "I can't tell! Maybe there is, maybe not, or maybe he's a guy who doesn't care about the Han family at all, that's how he felt to me during the time I was in his camp! ”

"No matter what, I can only rely on him, although Zhang Yang is loyal enough, but it is a problem for him to protect himself, let alone protect the Son of Heaven!" Xu Huang said.

Xu Shu smiled bitterly: "The princes everywhere are actually like this, the small forces are loyal but incapable, the big forces want to stand on their own, but the dignified son of heaven is going to be reduced to relying on the princes to protect it, it's really sad!"

Yang Biao said: "Now the people and horses of all walks of life who protect the Son of Heaven are not working together, Hu Cai died in the chaos, Li Le is arbitrary, Yang Feng, Han Xian, Dong Cheng and the three of them are all in harmony with each other, Gongming, Yuan Zhi can only rely on the bravery and strategy of the two of you!"

"This is natural, but I still don't understand something!" Xu Shu was puzzled, "What has Your Majesty experienced in the days since he disappeared, there has been no news since we let Ling Jian escort him out of Chang'an that day, and now Your Majesty will never mention the events of that time, and now Your Majesty seems to no longer trust anyone, he must know something, but unfortunately we as courtiers can't threaten Your Majesty to tell this experience!" ”

Yang Biao turned to look at Liu Xie's bedroom and said, "When Your Majesty wants to say it, it will naturally be said!" ”

Xu Huang said: "Jia Xu sent a message to me today and said that I should wait without delay, Li Wei and Guo Yan have begun to suspect him, he originally planned to leave the Xiliang Army now to defect, and he was afraid that Chang'an would be afraid that Li Guo's forces would be surrendered by the two of them, so he wanted to go to work for it!" ”

Yang Biao sighed and said: "It's really embarrassing for this Jia Wenhe, when His Majesty Andu Luoyang, I must repay him well!" ”

In Li Dao's military camp, Jia Xu was discussing the next step with Li Dao and Guo Yan.

"That's the situation, lord, our army is running out of food and grass now, what can we do about it?" Jia Xu said.

Guo Yan said: "What are you afraid of, rob it, and the mausoleums of these princes and generals along the way, which of the funeral goods in it is enough for us to use for a while!" They eat, drink and be merry before they are alive, and they still occupy so many treasures after they die, the living will starve to death, but the dead are still alive and well, there is no such reason in the world! ”

"It's because I didn't listen to Mr. Jia's advice before he sent out the army, and I mistakenly used Duan Xuan as a general to guard Yicheng, this is good, there is no way back at all!" Li Wei said remorsefully, looking at Guo Yan, "Old Guo, how many times have we been divided and reconciled, I don't have the heart to count!" ”

"Hehe, I hope there will be no more time for division in this reconciliation! Because I found that every time we fought among ourselves, a lot of chaos ensued. Guo Yan said embarrassedly, he is now betrayed by his subordinate general Wu Xi like Guo Yan and has become homeless, "The consequences of this infighting are the most serious, and even the Son of Heaven has been lost!" ”

"Hmph, Yang Feng is no better there!" Li Wei gloated and said, "I heard that most of his soldiers starved to death due to lack of food and grass, didn't we also see many ministers who starved to death along the way?" ”

"There is no way, this year, locust plague and plague are rampant in the Guanzhong area, and the crops have not been harvested, and the people who have died of hunger and disease have been seen by the march alone as many as one million!" Jia Xu has never been so distressed as now, he asked Li Wei for his life, "Don't worry, Da Sima, I have already investigated, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao also have no extra grain and grass to support the rescue of the Son of Heaven, Yang Feng's army is at the end of the road, Da Sima can be captured with one blow, Duan Xuan has received a lot of favor from me before, I am willing to ride to Yicheng alone, persuade him to hand over the military power to me, and support the lord grain and grass as soon as possible!" ”

"That's great!" Guo Yan said happily, "Wen He believes in your ability, if you go, I will lead the troops to loot nearby tomorrow and dig up a few of his graves!" Lao Li, you continue to bite Yang Feng, Dong Cheng, Han Xian, these guys, although they can still fight, they can't afford to be hungry! ”

Jia Xu walked out of the camp tent with a wry smile, looking at the gloomy night overhead, and sighed in his heart, the partners who got together a few days ago are now scattered all over the place and fighting together for the common goal in their hearts!

Gao Yi, my task is complete, and it's up to you next.

"Prepare the horse, go to Chang'an!"

The next day, Li Dao prepared his troops and horses and was about to order an army to Anyi, but received a letter sent by Li Le, Li Dao laughed after opening it, it turned out that Li Le wanted to unite to deal with Yang Feng and others, this was really a godsend, Li Dao immediately no longer hesitated, and ordered the army to march to Anyi again.

Anyi here, Yang Feng and others escorted Liu Xie was about to set off, but they couldn't find Li Le's people everywhere, and when they were confused, the sergeant came to report that Li Le had voted for Li Wei, and the two armies jointly wanted to rob the Son of Heaven, Yang Feng was naturally shocked, and did not wait for the people and horses from all walks of life to converge, and he escorted Liu Xie's car to drive towards Jiguan.

Li Le was waiting for the whole army to attack Yang Feng, and when he heard that Yang Feng had already left Anyi first, he didn't wait for Li Dao's army to arrive, and led his own troops to chase after him. On the left side of the fourth watch, he rushed to the foot of Kei Mountain and ordered the sergeant to shout: "The car is on leave!" Li Dao and Guo Yan are here! ”

"What, has Li Dao already caught up?" Liu Xie, who was driving in the car, was frightened, and when he saw the fire on the mountain from afar, he was at a loss.

"Your Majesty is shocked, Li Dao can't catch up so quickly, this must be Li Le! Wait for Weichen to go and fight with the whole army! Yang Feng was also suspicious in his heart, but he still came to comfort Liu Xie before driving, and then gathered Xu Huang and said: "Brother Yi, I didn't tell you before, this Li Le has already taken refuge in Li Dao, you go and kill this person quickly, don't be merciful!" ”

"Brother, don't worry, just escort Your Majesty on the way, I'll come when I go!" Xu Huang carried a big axe, said goodbye to Yang Feng, flew on the horse, and hurried to the way he came.

Han Xian walked late, and when he arrived at Keiguan, he saw Xu Huang leading the army and Li Le to fight together, and he was immediately shocked, so he ordered to stop the attack, but the soldiers were chaotic at night, how could he hear it, and Xu Huang had already killed Li Le's attack in a short time, and Pegasus took Li Le himself.

Li Le was shocked, but Xu Huang was so brave that he had no way to retreat, so he had to reluctantly face the battle, but what kind of character Xu Huang was, in just one round, Li Le was dead on the ground and lost his breath.

When the rest of the soldiers saw that the commander was dead, they stopped the battle, and fled half and half down.

Looking at Li Le's corpse, Han Xian felt bad in his heart, the autumn breeze was bleak, and the killing field just now was already empty, and there were messy corpses that no one could clean up.

"Li Le, why are we here!" Han Xian choked and covered Li Le with a layer of white cloth, silent.

"General, Li Dao's men are about to chase after you, let's go!" Han Xian's soldiers urged.

"No, I've changed my mind!" Han Xian muttered, "What's so good about following the emperor, if you die, you will die in vain, there is no food to eat and no official to do, just the name of a general of the Four Expeditions is good, or a general of the Four Expeditions without a scarf, and even if he dies, there is no grave, do you say that he is wronged?" ”

"But where else can we go, General?" The sergeant under his command also said helplessly.

"That's it, let's go to Yuan Yao!" Han Xian said as if he had made up his mind, "Instead of following this true emperor who may be killed at any time, it is better to defect to the person who is most likely to be the emperor, I heard that Yuan Yao recently got the jade seal of the heirloom country?" We took Yuzhou from Nanyang to Huainan! ”
