Chapter 252: Chang'an Changed Hands

Wei Yan learned the news of the capture of Yiwu later than Liu Zhang and Dong Zhuo, and when the messenger arrived, he was still staring at the map, looking at the location and movement route of the troops marked on the map, estimating when they would be able to rush back and go to Yiwu to join the Chen Palace. Unexpectedly, he was still having a headache at the last moment, and he didn't know when he would be able to complete Liu Zhang's order, and in the blink of an eye, all the problems disappeared. At that time, Wei Yan's mood was still a little complicated to be honest, of course he was happy that Hewu was conquered, but as the commander-in-chief of the Northern Expedition West Road, he still had some regrets, since the breakthrough of Sanguan, he has conquered more than 20 cities, but these cities are almost all descending from the wind, up to this time, he has an army of 100,000, but he has not fought a battle, how can he not regret it? Just when he thought that there would be a big battle waiting for him, and he had already begun to prepare carefully for this big battle, suddenly another basin of cold water poured him from his body to his heart! He knew that he had missed this battle, and there would be no decent battle left for him further east, not to mention Dong Zhuo's eighty or ninety thousand army, and now that Hewu had fallen into his own hands, Dong Zhuo would definitely retreat if he still had brains, and he would have chased Dong Zhuo's ass for a while at most.

After a short period of loss, Wei Yan looked at the map carefully, as one of the commanders of the four major field corps, Wei Yan clearly knew all the deployments of the Northern Expedition, he believed that at this time Chang'an may have fallen into the hands of the Yizhou army, if this is really the case, Dong Zhuo has only one way to go, that is, to retreat to Wuwei, the hinterland of Liangzhou, and converge with the 15,000 people left there to resist stubbornly! Dong Zhuo can't be allowed to retreat to Wuwei, he must be intercepted, but where to stop it? After looking at the map for more than an hour, Wei Yan couldn't help but show a smile on his face......

Anding County has been laid down by Wei Yan for most of the time, Dong Zhuo wants to return to Wuwei through Anding County is difficult, if he is Dong Zhuo, he will definitely go to Beidi County, first, Beidi County is still in the hands of Dong Zhuojun, and secondly, Beidi County is close to the grassland, once something happens, Dong Zhuo can wave the army to detour back to Wuwei through the grassland. Although the upper county of Bingzhou in the east of Beidi County is already Lu Bu's territory, and Lu Bu, who has a deep grudge against Dong Zhuo, may send troops from Shangjun to attack Dong Zhuo, but now the battle between Lu Bu and Yuan Shao for the state is becoming more and more intense, and there are fierce battles on the front line of Huguan every day, and Lu Bu's heavy troops are used to deal with the war with Yuan Shao, even if Dong Zhuo takes advantage of the merger, Lu Bu should not be able to take advantage of the fire to rob. What's more, if Dong Zhuo is eliminated by Liu Zhang, as long as people with brains will guess who holds the land of Jing, Yi, Liang, and Sanfu, and who has always regarded himself as a Dan and a sincere heart, who will be next! For Lu Bu, Liu Zhang, who unified Guanzhong, will be more threatening than Dong Zhuo, and Lu Bu, who has no time to care about him, will definitely choose to let Dong Zhuo go and let Dong Zhuo continue to contain Liu Zhang.

Wei Yan was a person who did what he said, and before he had time to ask Liu Zhang's consent, he collected the troops and went north, while writing to Liu Zhang to explain the situation, and asking Liu Zhang to forgive him for the crime of acting alone.

In the arrow tower of the east gate of Chang'an City, a flagpole with a thick bowl mouth was rudely cut off, and the "Dong" flag woven of gold wire floated towards the city with the wind.

"Rush, ......" A soldier saw the direction clearly, shouted and ran quickly down the city.

The others also reacted, and rushed to follow, it was Dong Zhuo's handsome banner, and it was not only a great achievement to seize it with his own hands, and when he returned to his hometown after disarming in the future, he told the villagers, what a glorious thing it must be?

Several soldiers followed the direction of their memories to a small inconspicuous courtyard, and as the victors, they had only come to take their own booty, so they trespassed on a private house without any scruples.

The soles of the shoes had just touched the stone slabs set up in the small courtyard, and dozens of arrows suddenly shot out of the quiet courtyard......

"Ah......h......h

The sudden killing machine made the soldier in a trance, and this shout came back to his senses, as if he suddenly saw it, he rushed to the soldier who still had a breath left, and shouted: "Brother Chen, what's wrong with you?" I'm here to save you! ”

The seriously wounded soldier scolded fiercely: "Get out of here, stay...... Wait for death, find someone to avenge us......"

"Ah...... But ......"

"But a bird, get out, don't let Lao Tzu die sleeplessly......"

"Yes, Brother Chen, I'll call someone, you hold on......" With that, the soldier twisted his hair and ran wildly, and the moment he turned his head, a second wave of attacks chased his ass and shot.

"Ah......h

"Chase, you can't leave a living mouth......" A grim voice came from the courtyard, and then five people with sharp hands rushed out, and they chased after them without the slightest stop. Although these people are dressed as ordinary people, but judging by their physique, eyes, and momentum, they are by no means ordinary people, even if they are not soldiers, they must be people who lick blood at the edge of the knife all year round.

Chang'an City has just changed hands, the level is unstable, so there are many soldiers patrolling the streets and alleys, the shouting of the soldiers who escaped from the small courtyard quickly attracted a patrol, when they saw a few people are chasing and killing their comrades, the small leader of this patrol team shouted, and more than 20 people immediately rushed up.

The five people who were chasing were not good at a glance, and they turned around and fled. The soldiers were about to let them flee, and when they would agree, the little leader shouted, "Bow and arrow, shoot these bastards......"

The soldier took his bow and arrow, and in an instant the five were corpses.

After the enemy was completely annihilated, these soldiers surrounded the fleeing soldiers and asked the reason.

When the little leader saw the noisy appearance of everyone, he couldn't help but scold: "Shut up, I'll ask!" ”

When the soldiers saw the commander angry, they were immediately speechless.

"Brother, what's going on? Why are these people chasing after you? Who the hell are they? ”

"Back to the commander's words, yes, it's like this......" The soldier who survived the catastrophe told the story intermittently, but he had no clue who these people were.

"That's right, quick, save people......" The soldier suddenly thought that when he left, Brother Chen still had a breath of air, and if he arrived in time, maybe there would be rescue.

"Don't worry, brother, according to what you say, that yard is definitely not simple, just us people rushing in, it must be a dead end, I'll find someone to help, don't worry! Li Erwazi, Yan San, you immediately go find someone to help, and the others will follow me to guard the courtyard, don't let them run away! The little leader said with a cool head.

The soldier grabbed the little leader's hand with tears in his eyes and said, "No, sir, it's too late, Brother Chen will die......"

The little leader said in a low voice: "Brother, it's not that I'm ruthless, after so much time, I'm afraid that the brothers in the courtyard have already been poisoned by the other party, and they just rushed in, that's to send my brother to death, you don't want to see your brother die, I can't let my brother die!" ”

The soldier's expression suddenly darkened when he heard this, he knew that the little leader was right, it seemed that there were at least thirty or forty enemies in that small courtyard who couldn't see the number of ways clearly, and there were at least twenty or more than five after chasing out, Brother Chen was seriously injured, how could he be their opponent, not to mention that even if they didn't kill Brother Chen, Brother Chen would probably be seriously injured and die, he gritted his teeth and secretly vowed to kill all the people in the courtyard, and to use their blood to pay tribute to Brother Chen.

"Ah, brother, you ...... You're injured......" The little leader suddenly noticed that the soldier had an arrow stuck in his back, and hurriedly said, "Quick, sit down...... Let us help you take the arrow off......"

The soldier didn't realize that he was wounded, and when he heard the little leader's words, he suddenly felt a piercing pain in his back, and his head felt dizzy.

Several people helped the soldier to sit down, a few hands tightly stabilized his body, and one soldier tore off a piece of his shirt and handed it to him: "Bite it, feel better!" ”

The soldier opened his mouth, clenched the placket of his shirt, and nodded to signal that he was ready to start.

"Brother, ......bear with it," the little leader said, unbuttoning the soldier's armor, but did not take it off, because if he did so, he would inevitably touch the arrow and cause damage, and then he put his hand on the shaft of the arrow and said, "Here it is......" With that, he pulled back like lightning, and a stream of blood arrows suddenly splattered out.

"Hmm......" The soldier who was gagged by his shirt was speechless, and his face was instantly forced into a large cold sweat.

The little leader threw away the arrows, quickly took off the soldier's armor, then tore his clothes, took a bag of earthy yellow powder and a ball of white cotton from the soldier next to him, poured a small amount of powder on the cotton, and then quickly pressed it into the bleeding wound.

The stimulation of the powder foam once again made the soldier's mouth "......", and the cold sweat on his face increased.

"Alright, it's all right...... " the little leader comforted as he pressed the wound tightly, and after a while until the blood stopped gushing out, he took a strip of cloth and wrapped it tightly around the soldier's chest three times.

The treatment time was not long, and the little leader was afraid that the people in the small courtyard had fled, and planned to leave the two of them to take care of the wounded soldier, so he took the others to rush over immediately to block the other party.

The soldier who took out the cloth regiment took a long breath, wiped the sweat stains on his forehead and face, and said stubbornly: "I'll go with the commander ......"

"No, your injuries are too serious to move, rest here and I'll take you to the military doctor in a moment. Don't worry, I will definitely avenge you for your enmity with your brother! With that, the little leader designated the two to stay, and led the others to run away quickly.

The street was full of patrolling soldiers, and after a while, Li Erwazi and Yan San each led dozens of soldiers to run over.
