As the two armies of Cao Hong and Xiahou brothers continued to approach, the number of Ma Yuanyi's men became smaller and smaller, and finally there were dozens of people left, who chose to draw their swords and kill themselves because they couldn't bear the cruel torture of slow roasting. Before he died, he shouted loudly in unison, the slogan of the Yellow Turban Sect.

"The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the age is in Jiazi, and the world is lucky!"

"Hmph, a group of stupid and lost ants, before they die, they dare to judge the world, it's really not a pity to die."

Cao Hong's face was covered with the blood of Ma Yuanyi's men, and he was about to rush to kill the last dozens of people, when he suddenly heard them shouting, and then killed himself, and couldn't help but kill a lot, and spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm to those dead corpses.

On the other side of the grassland, Tang Zhou and his henchmen of less than ten remnants did not take advantage of the chaos to flee just now. Tang Zhou's heart was bright, there must be a reason why these court soldiers and horses did not chase them to death from beginning to end. However, once Tang Zhou and his party wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape, they would immediately be chased and killed. It is obvious that it is impossible for a pair of feet to outrun these court soldiers and horses on horseback.

Not to mention, Tang Zhou was seriously injured and couldn't run fast.

Tang Zhou looked at Ma Yuanyi's men, who had 2,000 people, and were killed by the court soldiers and horses of about 1,000 people in only half an hour. His face kept changing, and finally he muttered a sentence in his heart lonely.

"How strong are the soldiers and horses of the imperial court? Ma Yuanyi's 2,000 subordinates, within half an hour, were annihilated by these 1,000 court cavalry without much effort. If every soldier and horse in the imperial court is like this horse so brave and good at fighting. 'M afraid... The revelation of the great sage and good teacher will be a dream. ”

Tang Zhou was thinking in his heart, and suddenly found that his sleeves had been ripped off, and then he came back to his senses.

"I am the Great Han Lang, Cao Cao, Cao Mengde. You are the Yellow Turban Teaching, Tang Zhou? ”

As soon as Tang Zhou came back to his senses, he first saw a man riding a pitch-black horse with a shiny body, and at a glance he knew that it was a rare horse for thousands of miles in the world. This man's eyes devoured people, as if he could see through people's hearts, and after Tang Zhou looked at him for a while, he felt as if he had been stripped of his clothes, and there was nothing to hide.

Then, hearing this person's question, Tang Zhou's heart was shocked, and he quickly knelt down.

"Sinner Tang Zhou, meet Cao Yilang."

Tang Zhou is a smart person, and he quickly understood a lot, at this time and place, it will definitely not be an accident that a court soldier will suddenly appear. Tang Zhou almost guessed half of the truth, guessing that the news of the collusion between the Yellow Turban Sect and the Luoyang eunuchs had leaked, but Tang Zhou didn't know how much the man with devouring eyes in front of him knew about the Yellow Turban Sect. But at the very least, this man must have known that the Yellow Turban Sect was already a threat to the imperial court.

"Oh, sinner? What sin are thou? ”

Cao Cao heard Tang Zhou admit that he was a sinner, his eyes instantly narrowed, and he had a little appreciation for Tang Zhou in his heart, and secretly said that this was a smart person.

"Tang Zhou is guilty, but the stakes are high. If you say it, it is related to the entire Han world, millions of lives, and even the rise and fall of the world in the next two or three hundred years. Please Lord Lang, forgive Tang Zhou for arrogance. Tang Zhou has a request, if Lord Yilang agrees, Tang Zhou is willing to say it all without reservation. ”

Tang Zhou, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly changed his momentum, his eyes were tough and full of hatred, and he put on a posture that if you didn't agree to the request, he would rather die than give in.

"Huh. Thou knowest that thou art a sinner, but thou hast dared to make demands. It seems that this requirement is more important than your life! Aren't you afraid that when I find out, I will unload the mill and kill the donkey? ”

Cao Cao suddenly sneered, his eyes were full of murderous intent, and he was so frightened that Tang Zhou's henchmen were about to jump out.

But Tang Zhou was not afraid, showing an expression of putting life and death aside, and replied lightly and calmly.

"As long as Lord Yilang accepts the request of the sinner, the life of the sinner is Lord Yilang, and it is up to Lord Yilang to be a cow or a horse, or to kill or chop up."

"Hahaha. Good! I admire you. I have granted your request. ”

Cao Cao suddenly laughed again, moody, this expression and attitude changed too quickly, making people at a loss.

Tang Zhou looked at Cao Cao, who was laughing, his expression was a little stunned.

"Before Lord Yilang knew what I wanted, he said yes? Isn't Lord Yilang afraid that I will make some difficult and unrealistic requests? ”

"Haha. Your request is just for Ma Yuanyi's life. I'm right or not. ”

Cao Cao laughed, staring at Tang Zhou with interest with a pair of fine eyes, and after Tang Zhou heard this, he was shocked again, thinking about how this Cao Yilang was so powerful, as if he couldn't hide anything from him.

After being stunned, Tang Zhou reacted and bowed deeply to Cao Cao.

"Lord Yilang, he is like a god. Tang Zhou bowed to him. In this way, the life of the sinner Tang Zhou is Lord Yilang's. ”

"Hahahaha. Good! Good! Good! ”

Cao Cao looked up and laughed again, seemingly very happy, but in the process of laughing, his eyes changed a little subtly.

"It's not my Cao Mengde who is like a god. It's that extraordinary. Wen Bufan, Wen Bufan, what kind of ability do you have, and how did you learn about such a big thing. You're getting more and more interesting..."

After that, Cao Cao said a few more words to Tang Zhou, and told him some details that needed attention, Cao Cao planned to arrange for him to live in Cao's mansion first, and then let him tell all the things about the Yellow Turban Sect. The stakes are very high, and it involves the eunuchs of the imperial court, Cao Cao is cautious and must collect enough evidence before he acts.

When Cao Cao led the soldiers and horses and led Tang Zhou and his pedestrians back to Luoyang City, it was already the time when the rooster crowed, and the sun rose, driving away the night and illuminating the entire Luoyang City. Many hawkers and traders in Luoyang City have woken up and come and gone on Luoyang Street, preparing for the day's trading.

After a while, it's time for the upper dynasty. On the other side, inside the school barracks. Wen Han, Guan Yu, and Xu Huang got up early, and after washing, they changed into a clean imperial court uniform and prepared to go to court. After a while, the carriage sent by He Jin had arrived at the gate of the school, and the housekeeper of the General's Mansion found Wen Han, Guan Yu, and Xu Huang, and saw that they had been sorted out, so he led them into the carriage and drove in the direction of the palace.

Luoyang Imperial Palace, magnificent and magnificent. Under the sun, it shines brightly. The bricks of the palace are green jade, and when the sun is warm, it produces cool smoke, and when it is cold, it disperses warm air. The palace is red and vermilion lacquer gate, as high as ten zhang, standing mightily under it, making people dare to be humble and weak. The antique style around makes people feel solemn.

Wen Han, Guan Yu, and Xu Huang walked into the palace and walked towards the Wende Palace, all the way down, constantly encountering patrolling forbidden troops and heavily guarded. Coming to the front of the Wende Palace, a long corridor staircase, there are 3,680 steps, all the time, the corridor pillar of the hall body is square, and there is a spitting water head under the pillar. The top cover is inlaid with green glazed tiles, and the whole dragon is connected with a carved dragon between the two columns, and the dragon head sticks out of the eaves, and the dragon tail goes straight into the hall.

The long dragon leads directly to the 3,680 steps of the corridor, and every step of the way makes people feel that the footsteps are heavy and majestic.

Came to the front of the Wende Palace, only to see that the top of the hall was covered with yellow glazed tiles, inlaid with green trimming, and the flame beads in the middle of the phase wheel. Wen Han, Guan Yu, and Xu Huang waited quietly, standing upright, and almost heard the conversation between the hundred officials in the Wende Hall and Emperor Han Ling.

In the Wende Palace, hundreds of officials knelt down, Emperor Han Ling ordered him to be flat, and the head of the ten permanent servants next to him, Zhang Rang said that there was nothing to do and retreated. I don't know which officials it was, Shi Li stood up and played national events, Emperor Ling of Han sat on the Wangui dragon chair, examined and listened one by one, and decided on a strategy.

After the major event was discussed, it was He Jin's turn to walk out and report to Emperor Han Ling. After a while, a eunuch was heard.

"Xuanda Han Army Sima Wenhan, Wen Bufan. Riding Governor Guan Yu, Guan Yunchang. The three of them, Xu Huang and Xu Gongming, entered the temple on a pilgrimage! ”

Wen Han, Guan Yu, and Xu Huang, who were waiting outside the hall, listened to this, and each of them had a straight face, bowed their heads, did not look at the holy might, and stepped into the hall step by step calmly.

"Long live my emperor, long live!"

Wen Han, Guan Yu, and Xu Huangyan shouted at the same time, kneeling in front of the Wende Palace. On the throne of the golden lacquer carved dragon, Emperor Ling of Han looked at Wen Han, Guan Yu, and Xu Huang with a pair of eyes that looked at the world, and ordered majestically.

"Flat."

"Emperor Xie!"

After Wen Han, Guan Yu, and Xu Huang stood up, they bent down and saluted before they could raise their heads to meet Long Yan. Emperor Ling of Han was only thirty-four years old, but his face was pale and a little sickly, and his eyes were majestic but weak. Wen Han, Guan Yu, and Xu Huang were looking at Emperor Han Ling, and Emperor Han Ling was also looking at Wen Han, Guan Yu, and Xu Huang.

"Who is Wen Han, Wen Bufan?"

Suddenly, Emperor Han Ling asked. Wen Han's face was stunned, and he hurriedly took a step forward and bowed.

"The saint, the minister is exactly."

"Hmm... I heard that you led 5,000 soldiers and horses, took the repair capital, guarded the river, killed Keba Wuyan father and son in two battles, and destroyed 50,000 Hu people. He made great achievements, and won the people of Shuofang County and was crowned with the title of champion. Is this true? ”

"In the Holy Place, the slave came from a humble background, but he was favored by the Holy One, received orders to resist foreigners, and has always led the army to fight with a humble heart and diligence. There is no fraud in reporting the merits, as for the name of the champion, it is just that it is wrongly loved by some people, and it cannot be taken seriously. ”

"Oh..."

Emperor Han Ling nodded, but after a sigh, he didn't speak. At this time, a man walked out and knelt in front of the main hall.

"Holy! This article is simply nonsense, how can he have a humble heart. A month ago, the imperial court issued a decree ordering him to lead the army back. But he didn't return for a long time, and his journey was a month slow. With this action, he can be cured of a great crime of contempt for the court, and he will be punished by splitting the car! ”
