Chapter Eighty-Seven: Xiliang Iron Ride
Luoyang's shouts of killing gradually drifted away.
Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, who had picked up a life, glanced at Luoyang City, which had been left far behind, and each breathed a sigh of relief.
"I don't want Lu Zhi to be old, but he is as fierce as this!" Zhao Zhong said with some palpitations.
Lu Zhi led the troops, not to mention, who would have thought that Lu Zhi, who was gentle and elegant on weekdays and had a Confucian demeanor, would be so ferocious, that spear danced, and seven or eight armor soldiers surrounded him and couldn't get close, and he couldn't see the slightest shadow of Confucianism when he killed people.
Zhang Rang nodded silently, in the palace before, I didn't think that these generals were powerful, and if they changed people, they couldn't find out where to go, until today they took people and horses out of Luoyang, and met the enemy several times, but these armor soldiers were defeated in every battle, Zhang Rang understood the gap, but unfortunately it was too late to talk about these now.
"Where am I going?" Gao Wang looked at Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong blankly.
Zhang Rang and the others couldn't help but fall silent when they heard this, yes, where to go?
After leaving Luoyang, Zhang Rang found that they didn't even have a place to go, according to the previous routine, they held the Son of Heaven at the moment, and they should take the Son of Heaven to find a capital again, erect the name of the Son of Heaven and then call on the princes of the world to crusade against Luoyang Buchen.
But the question is where to go?
There are only a few big Han people who can be regarded as the capital, and Chang'an doesn't say whether it has been achieved now, even if they go, those Guan sergeants will tolerate them?
The same is true in other places, out of Luoyang, Zhang Rang and others found that in the huge world, even if they hold the orthodoxy of the Son of Heaven, they can't coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, the world is so big, there is no place for them!
"Anyway, get out of here first." After Zhang Rang was silent for a long time, he said astringently, the current situation can only take one step at a time.
Just as a few people were thinking about where to go next, there was a sudden sound behind them.
But it is a group of people from the rear to catch up, it seems, not from Luoyang, the leader, is a scribe, Zhang Rang recognized this person, is the central Peng Min Gong, is the river / south of the famous scholar, quite talented, since the office, has not relied on anyone, only with their own ability step by step to promote.
When the ten permanent servants were in power, they had failed to ask Min Gong for bribes, secretly slandered and framed, and in a fit of anger, they abandoned the official and returned to their hometowns, he was a very upright character, the kind that couldn't rub the sand in his eyes, and the two sides could be regarded as having grudges, plus Zhang Rang and others were weak at the moment, and when they saw that it was Min Gong, they didn't say a word, turned around and ran.
Min Gong was originally a person from He/Nan, saying that he abandoned the official and returned to his hometown, but his home was near Luoyang, he had already slept on this day, and suddenly heard someone report that there was a turmoil in Luoyang, and Min Gong ordered the family to come to find out what was going on, and when he saw someone here, he just wanted to come over and ask one or two, but he didn't expect the other party to run away when he saw him, and he suddenly became suspicious in his heart, and shouted: "The thief is leaving!" ”
Under this shout, Zhang Rang and the others did not stop, but ran faster, which also made Min Gong sure that there was something wrong with these people, and he no longer went to Luoyang at the moment, and directly chased after the servants of the family.
Zhang Rang and others were pampered, and most of the armor soldiers under his command had not experienced much training, and there were chariot battles in the team, while Min Gong's side was lightly armed, with extremely fast legs and feet, and soon shortened the distance between the two sides.
"Let Gong, you go first, I'll fight him!" Zhao Zhong gritted his teeth, suddenly stopped, and summoned the armor soldiers to meet Min Gong.
"Zhao Gong!" Zhang Rang was in a hurry when he saw this, among the ten permanent servants, he had the best relationship with Zhao Zhong, and now Zhao Zhong fought with his life several times to fulfill him, which made Zhang Rang's heart ache, and as soon as he gritted his teeth, he wanted to turn around to save him, but was stopped by Gao Wang.
"Let Gong, if you don't leave, it's too late!" Gao Wang dragged Zhang Rang to death and said in a mournful voice.
On the other side, Zhao Zhong was out of the way this time, and took the armor to meet Min Gong first, and when he raised his sword and fell, he killed a family member, and the armor soldiers behind him saw that Zhao Zhong was desperate, and they also rose up and pounced bravely.
Although Min Gong is talented, he is not a general, and the servants and servants in Zhuangzhong are also untrained ordinary people, and they can't gain the upper hand for a while when they fight with Zhao Zhong's men and horses.
However, Rao is like this, which also made the morale of the armor behind Zhao Zhong soar, and after fighting all night, almost all of them were pressed and beaten, and this time, he finally met his opponent in chess.
Min Gong didn't know who the other party was before, but when he saw Zhao Zhong, he couldn't help but be shocked, the ten permanent servants were the culprits who were more than him, and Min Gong naturally recognized it, but when he saw Zhao Zhong at this time, Min Gong's first thought was not revenge, but since Zhao Zhong was here, who was fleeing in front of him, and what was on the car tent......
Thinking of a possibility, Min Gong was in a hurry, so he wanted to abandon Zhao Zhong to chase Zhang Rang, but where was Zhao Zhong willing to let him go, the armor under his command fought for a night, and finally met a group of similar opponents, and the bigger they were, the more excited they were, and they bit hard, Min Gong rushed several times, but he couldn't rush over, seeing that Zhang Rang and the others were about to lose sight, he couldn't help but shout angrily, but he had no choice but to have a weak army, so he could only barely make a draw, how easy is it to get rid of?
In the middle of the struggle, the sound of horses' hooves sounded in the distance, but there was another team of people and horses to kill, the first one was more than eight feet long, with a golden crown on his head, heavy armor on his shoulders, a big knife in his hand dragged on the ground, on his bronze face, a pair of tiger eyes were blazing, and under the crotch was a big horse with a dark body. ”
When Zhao Zhong heard this, he thought that the rescue soldiers had come, his face was happy, and he said loudly: "General Hua, I am the regular servant Zhao Zhong, but Dong Liangzhou's soldiers and horses are here?" ”
Waiter? Zhao Zhong?
Hua Xiong's eyes fell on Zhao Zhong, remembering Li Ru's explanation before, the corners of his mouth grinned, his legs slammed into the horse's belly, the BMW under his crotch was a little faster, and he rushed into the crowd like a gallop, and went straight to Zhao Zhong's direction.
Zhao Zhong originally thought that the reinforcements were coming, and he was relieved in his heart, and he was about to invite Hua Xiong to join forces to strangle that Min Gong, but then he realized that something was wrong, and looked at Hua Xiong who was rushing straight towards him, and his heart was suddenly shocked, this is like a person who came to support, it is clearly here to kill!
"Huaxiong stays!" It's just that between these thoughts, Hua Xiong was less than ten steps away from him, and the long knife in his hand was lifted by Hua Xiong in shock, and under the moonlight, a cold light reflected the moon, leaving a miserable white arc in the air.
"Poof~"
As soon as the words fell, the arc of light swept through his throat, Zhao Zhong still had an angry expression in his eyes, and his head was rushed to the sky by a column of blood.
"Get out!" A knife slashed Zhao Zhong, Hua Xiong wrapped a jade belt around his waist, swept the knife, and all the people in the vicinity flew away, and the stump and broken arm fell to the ground, staring at the tiger, and shouted at a group of trembling and fearful armor soldiers.
How could the armor in the palace have seen such a fierce man, plus Zhao Zhong is dead, and there are a large number of Xiliang iron cavalry in the rear, the confidence that has just been fought from Min Gong instantly dissipated without a trace, and after a little hesitation, with the Xiliang iron cavalry rushing, it suddenly dispersed.
"Who are you?" Hua Xiongle turned his horse's head, looked at the guards, and looked coldly at Min Gongdao on this side.
"River/South, Min Gong!" Min Gong snorted coldly, straightened his chest and said proudly, he was annoyed that Huaxiong did not distinguish between the enemy and me, and even killed his own family, so naturally he would not have a good face.
Hua Xiong glanced at the trembling servants beside Min Gong, and suddenly smiled: "Luoyang soldiers and horses, are they all like this?" ”
"Presumptuous!" When Min Gong heard this, he couldn't help but be furious, and pointed at Hua Xiong and said: "Vulgar people, know that my Luoyang soldiers and horses are strong!" ”
"If I have the chance, I would like to see it." Hua Xiong hung the knife on the horse's back, and ordered all the men and horses to run to Luoyang, but saw that Min Gong did not return to Luoyang, but chased the direction of the group of armor soldiers, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Min Gong, where are you going?" ”
Min Gong snorted coldly, ignored it, and went straight to chase Zhang Rang and the others with his family.
Hua Xiong frowned, glanced in the direction of Luoyang, waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Follow up." ”
How could Hua Xiong appear here at this time, this should start from Zhang Rang's preparation to kill He Jin.
Dong Zhuo received a message from the Ten Standing Servants tonight, saying that he would design to kill He Jin tonight, hoping that Dong Zhuo could enter Beijing tonight to help stabilize the situation.
Li Ru even if the time has come, please Dong Zhuo immediately send troops, no matter who wins and who loses in Luoyang He Jin and the Ten Standing Servants tonight, there will be a big battle in Luoyang, Dong Zhuo enters Beijing at this moment, it is the best time, once the chaos is over, Luoyang gradually restores order, then there is no chance, therefore, Dong Zhuo ordered Huaxiong to lead a thousand Xiliang iron cavalry as the vanguard, one step ahead to Luoyang, and he led the rest of the soldiers and horses from Gucheng, followed closely.
On the way, Hua Xiong saw the frame that Zhang Rang had lost, although he didn't see too much, but he also knew that it was not ordinary people who could sit on this kind of frame, so he rushed up at the moment, and in the angry cheers of the family, he picked Min Gong up from the crowd.
"Say, who's up ahead?" Hua Xiong's eyes widened, and he shouted: "Believe it or not, I'll kill you now!" ”
If it was usual, with Min Gong's temper, he would never bow his head even if he died, but at this moment, it was a matter of the Son of Heaven, seeing that Hua Xiong was arrogant and worried about the Son of Heaven, he could only endure this breath and said angrily: "Your Majesty was kidnapped by traitors, and you still don't let me go, if you miss the opportunity to save Your Majesty, you can afford it!?" ”
"Your Majesty?" Hua Xiong was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly turned his head to look at a confidant and said, "Go and inform the lord, and the others, follow me!" ”
A Xiliang iron rider turned his horse's head and ran towards the way he came, Hua Xiong casually left Min Gong behind, and followed the trail with the men and horses.
