The chariots, the horses, the dust, the dust. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
On the official road leading from Bishui Pass to Luoyang, the teams of the Kwantung princes, you compete for each other, do not give in to each other, at first glance, just like the teams participating in the competition, they are all in a hurry, and no one wants to be left behind.
First, the Imperial City of the Son of Heaven in Luoyang, even if it is an empty city, the significance of leading troops to occupy it is extraordinary, and second, Dong Zhuo has just led the troops to move the capital, and these princes also want to take advantage of the chaos to reap some benefits, whether it is gold and silver treasures, or something else, even if they take advantage of the chaos to kill a few Xiliang soldiers.
"Hurry up, don't rub me in..."
Zhang Min Cao Leopard, kept riding back and forth to urge the team to speed up the march, at this time, everyone's eyes were round, it seemed that in Luoyang, there were countless gold and silver beauties beckoning to everyone.
The princes, scrambling to be the first, not giving in to each other, the closer to Luoyang City, the more chaotic the ground became, the Xiliang soldiers walked in a hurry, falling on the ground armor, knives and guns, gongs and drums, tents, as well as the clothes and parcels discarded by the people on the roadside, and even chickens and ducks... There are too many to count.
Seeing these things on the ground, the princes were happy, and they all breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, even Yuan Shao touched his chin, and laughed loudly, "Dong Zhuo, the eyes of the rat are light, not enough to worry, if it were me Yuan Benchu, I would never move the capital and withdraw the army in such a hurry, I will definitely take advantage of the situation to enter the Central Plains, with the power of a great victory, first go down to Jizhou, and then take Yanxu Erzhou, and then annex Jingyang, seize the world, it is as easy as a hand!" ”
Yuan Shaohao was angry, and Yan Liang and the others on the side all smiled, and their faces showed disdain for Dong Zhuo's actions.
Similarly, Yuan Shao's words also strengthened their determination to follow to the death, because, at first glance, these words were a pity for Dong Zhuo's hasty retreat, and they didn't hide Yuan Shao's ambition to be in the world.
"Roundabout..."
Xi Zhicai suddenly grabbed the silk reins, ignored the dissuasion of the soldiers around him, turned over and dismounted, bent down and carefully investigated on the ground.
"Zhicai, what's wrong with you? Is there anything wrong? ”
Cao Cao saw that Xi Zhicai dismounted, and also followed and restrained his mount.
Xi Zhicai shook his head, he couldn't say for sure, but he was getting more and more uneasy in his heart, the miscellaneous things scattered all over the ground were too mixed, and there were too many traces of vehicle hooves on the ground, even if Xi Zhicai was sharp-eyed, it was difficult to find flaws.
This is exactly what Li Ru is brilliant.
If it was just for the Xiliang soldiers to withdraw in a hurry, the traces on the ground must be too obvious, and now, the team of the Xiliang soldiers is carrying no less than 200,000 people, as well as so many courtiers and families, no matter who they are, they can't even think through Li Ru's conspiracy.
The armor and sword tents of the Xiliang soldiers were deliberately discarded on the side of the road in order to confuse the allies.
However, none of the sundries carried by the people were deliberately dropped by them, because the team was too crowded, you squeezed and pushed, pushed each other, and the people walked in a hurry, plus the Xiliang soldiers kept beating and scolding, and dropped things along the way, which was also very normal, and these dropped sundries covered up a lot of armor and other things that the Xiliang soldiers deliberately threw on the side of the road.
No matter who it was, it was impossible to see that Xiliang soldiers deliberately retreated.
These things that the people left on the side of the road are the best cover.
Even if Xi Zhicai has the ability of ghosts and gods, it is difficult to see through the tricks.
From top to bottom, the allies looked at the armor and other things that were scattered all over the ground, and they were excited and happy, everyone thought that Dong Zhuo had really led the troops to withdraw, and they fled very embarrassedly, and while they were happy, everyone's originally tense nerves were also relaxed.
Even Xi Zhicai didn't find a flaw, and the other people also decided that Dong Zhuo had really moved the capital away.
After entering Luoyang City, the princes were even more convinced.
Luoyang City was in flames, thick smoke was billowing into the sky, the city was surrounded by a sea of fire, and even there were a lot of scattered gold and silver utensils on the ground.
"Shan Fu, come here..."
After entering the city, he called Xu Shu to his side, and Lu Zhuo asked Xu Shu to lead the way, leading more than a dozen people directly into the imperial city.
"You kid......"
Xu Shu saw that Lu Zhuo looked anxious, and named him and asked him to take him to the imperial city, Xu Shu thought that Lu Zhuo wanted to take advantage of the chaos to get some oil and water.
After all, the Imperial City is a place where the Son of Heaven has stayed, and there must be a lot of valuable good things in it.
Lu Zhuo moved quickly, and Sun Jian also led people to the imperial city as soon as possible.
Fortunately, Sun Jian didn't know that the jade seal was in the imperial city, he just didn't want this place to be destroyed by fire, and when he entered the imperial city, Sun Jian finally breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the still intact imperial city, Sun Jian sighed and said, "It's still an old thief, he has a little conscience, and there is no fire to burn here." ”
Lu Zhuo entered the imperial city, and when he saw that there was no fire here, his heart suddenly became more uneasy, Lu Zhuo led people to search for valuable things, and at the same time he thought in his heart, "If Dong Zhuo really wants to move the capital, he will definitely burn this place to the ground, it is definitely a butcher who dares to think and dare to do, Dong Zhuo will never be afraid because this is a symbol of the emperor's imperial power, he will not leave any good things for the princes." ”
In the history books, in the romance, Dong Zhuo set fire to Luoyang, completely burned to ruins, after the first emperor moved east from Chang'an again, entered Luoyang, and did not even have a place to shelter from the rain, so he could only stay in the broken temple at night.
It didn't take long for Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu to also bring people into the imperial city, Lu Zhuo's heart became more and more anxious, he was different from others, others had to rummage everywhere, just like the devils who entered the village to sweep around, their eyes were round, for fear that they would miss valuable treasures.
And Lu Zhuo, although he was also searching everywhere, was just to hide people's eyes, and even the soldiers he brought around him were also to hide his true purpose.
As long as he encounters a dry well, Lu Zhuo will never let it go.
Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, under the guise of protecting the imperial city, filled their pockets with the treasures inside.
At this time, no matter who it is, see something valuable. Their eyes are shining, and they can't pounce on them immediately with excitement, as if they are crazy.
There were discarded valuables everywhere, and even Lu Zhuo's gaze would be attracted from time to time.
"This ......"
In Lu Zhuo's heart, the more suspicious he became, how did he know that this was all a decoy deliberately set by Li Ru.
The imperial city, the reason why there was no arson, because Dong Zhuo would come back and continue to live, of course, it couldn't be burned.
Although there were a lot of fires in the city, Dong Zhuo was very measured, he didn't plan to burn Luoyang completely, and the fires were all inconsequential.
As for the gold, silver and jewels discarded everywhere in the imperial city, in order to confuse the allies, to lure the allies to fight for it, and at the same time, to give the Xiliang soldiers a timely siege and win time.
Not long after the allies left Bishui Pass, Li Dao Guo Bi had quietly led his troops to kill Bishui Pass, and Fan Chou and Zhang Ji also led their troops to seize the Tiger Pass.
