After all, Danyangwei is an elite, especially good at mountain warfare, they are very good at light skills, more than 1,000 people collectively forcibly broke through to the north, and Gao Wang sent people to defend the north The pressure suddenly doubled.

Luoyang Chen's Mansion was in the south of Chenji Restaurant, which was exactly the opposite direction of the breakthrough chosen by Guan Thirteen, so after the 5,000 people who attacked Chen's Mansion found that Chen's Mansion was empty, they hurriedly supported Chenji Restaurant. And the breakthrough time chosen by Guan 13 happened to be on the way back to attack Chen's manpower.

There are more than 1,000 people to besiege the north of Chen Kee Restaurant, plus those who were killed by crossbow arrows before, the number of people in black who are left is almost the same as the number of people in Chen Kee Restaurant.

The black-clothed men in the rest of the Chen Ji Restaurant saw that the guards of the restaurant had broken through from the most unlikely north, and they were rushing to the north at the moment, but the guards of the restaurant who broke through were very smart, they knew that they were not capable of fighting at this time, and they all rushed to the north, and the hundreds of black-clothed people who were surrounded were directly scattered.

After Guan Thirteen broke out of the siege under the escort of more than 100 guards, he let his brothers scatter and flee, while he continued to evacuate to the north with more than 100 people, and the north was the direction of the palace.

Guan Thirteen saw that most of the brothers were scattered in a hurry and said loudly: "Brothers, run away!" ”

"Ahh Guan Thirteen shouted after speaking, but someone knocked Guan Thirteen unconscious from behind.

"Brothers, I'll take the thirteen stewards away, and you guys should also scatter and escape!" After the man who stunned Guan Thirteen finished speaking, he quickly left with Guan Thirteen on his back, and his light skills were indeed good.

The remaining hundred or so brothers also scattered and fled after seeing the man who was in charge of the thirteen on his back and walking away. The man in black chasing after him was instantly stunned in place, not knowing what to do.

Seeing this, Gao Wang shouted, "Don't chase it!" Quickly notify the blockade of the four city gates in Luoyang, and order the city wall guards to guard the city wall, and no one can be allowed to pass, otherwise there will be no mercy, and the rest of the people will disperse quickly. ”

"Yes!" The men in black left one after another.

Gao Wang saw that it was already dawn at this time, and it was very bad for so many black-clothed people to chase and fight in Luoyang City, so he gave an order, anyway, the guards of Chen Ji Restaurant couldn't escape from Luoyang City.

After Gao Wang finished arranging, he quickly went to the palace to report to Zhang Rang.

After hearing Gao Wang's words, Zhang Rang said angrily: "What can you do? 10,000 people were dispatched, but they couldn't even take more than 1,000 guards from Chen Ji Restaurant? After only killing about 300 people, do you want to me off? Is Luoyang City blocked? ”

Gao Wangyan lowered his head and hugged his fists and said, "Yes, big brother!" The four city gates have been blocked, and I have also made arrangements for the guards of the city wall, and the guards of Chen Ji Restaurant will definitely not be able to escape from Luoyang City. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Rang said in a deep voice: "You personally go to see Taiwei Zhang Yan and ask him to send someone to search for the guards of Chen Ji Restaurant in the whole city." ”

Gao Wang looked at Zhang Rang in embarrassment when he heard this: "Big brother, Taiwei Zhang Yanke is very close to Chen Qun, are you sure you want him to help us search for him?" ”

Zhang Rang frowned when he heard this: "If you want to go, you will go, what is so much nonsense?" ”

After Gao Wang glanced at the angry Zhang Rang, he hurriedly saluted Zhang Rang with a fist, and then quickly turned around and left.

After Gao Wang left, Zhao Zhong on the side looked at Zhang Rang and frowned and said: "Big brother, it's no wonder that Gao Wang is doing this, you also know that the guards of Chen Ji Restaurant are training every day, rain or shine, our people are not as diligent as them, plus the movement last night was so big, they must have prepared in advance, and it is normal for them to miss."

Now that the guards of Chen Ji Restaurant are all blocked in Luoyang City, why don't you shoot Yu Linwei to search, but ask Zhang Yan to help? Big brother, what does this mean? ”

Zhang Rang sneered when he heard this: "What do you mean? Of course, it's to get rid of Zhang Yan! The guards of Chen Ji Restaurant were not killed, and Shaomu Mountain City could not be attacked, so the only way to get rid of Chen Qun's henchmen was to get rid of them. I think that Zhang Yan will definitely refuse to meet the high hopes, and then his captain will be regarded as the end. ”

Zhao Zhong's eyes brightened when he heard this: "Seconds! Big brother's trick is really clever! That Zhang Yan's work can be described as leaky, and we can't catch his handle at all, but since then, he really has no way back. ”

Zhang Rang sneered: "Hmph! Just take this opportunity to get rid of Zhang Yan and see how he can make small moves below. ”

As Zhang Rang expected, Zhang Yan really refused Gao Wang's request, and Gao Wang had no choice but to return to Zhang Rang to regain his sight.

After Zhang Rang learned the news, he said in a deep voice: "I know, I ordered the Yulin Army to dispatch and search for the whereabouts of the guards of Chen Ji Restaurant in the whole city." ”

"Obey the order, big brother!" Gao Wang hugged Zhang Rang and bowed quickly and left, he felt that he was really too much today, and he didn't finish the two things that Zhang Rang handed him over, so Gao Wang made up his mind to take the Yulin Army to search out all the guards of Chen Ji Restaurant hidden in Luoyang City.

After Yulinwei was under martial law in the whole city, he began to search for news of the guards of Chen Ji Restaurant from door to door, but in these years, Luoyang City has always been restless, many people have hidden cellars, and Chen Ji Restaurant has a very good reputation in Luoyang City, so many people have secretly rescued the guards of Chen Ji Restaurant hidden in their homes.

At noon, Emperor Ling finally knew the news of the chaos in Luoyang City, and he sent Zhang Rang angrily and said: "Zhang Rang, there is such a big thing in Luoyang City, why don't you report it to me?" ”

Zhang Rang had already thought of a countermeasure at this time, he bowed his head after clasping his fist to Emperor Ling, and said: "Your Majesty, it's not that Weichen doesn't report it, but that Weichen is investigating this matter, and there is no clear result yet, and Weichen doesn't know how to report it to you, so it has been delayed until now." ”

When Emperor Ling heard this, his anger decreased, and he looked at Zhang Rang, who was bowing his head, and said, "Say, what's going on?" ”

Zhang Rang looked up at Emperor Ling when he heard this: "Your Majesty, there is a strongman who killed the officials who worked hard to build the Nangong last night, and the twenty main officials who were preparing to build the Nangong were all wiped out. ”

Hearing this, the Spirit Emperor frowned and said, "There is such a thing? Find out who did it? ”

Zhang Rang nodded and hugged his fists and said: "Back to Your Majesty, this matter was done by Cao Cao, but Cao Cao has fled Luoyang with the villains, but Cao Cao was very close to the Yingchuan Chen family before, so this matter should be instructed by the Yingchuan Chen family." Wechen has ordered someone to raid the Chen Mansion and Chen Ji Restaurant in Luoyang City, but the Chen family guards have arrested and escaped, and are currently searching for them throughout the city. ”

Emperor Ling blinked when he heard this, and looked at Zhang Rang: "Since this matter was done by Cao Cao, then you can just target Cao Cao, why do you want to implicate the Chen family?" ”

Zhang Rang's eyes rolled when he heard this: "Your Majesty, the destruction of the Nangong is related to the face of the Son of Heaven, but Cao Cao, Chen Qun and others have repeatedly prevented the repair of the Nangong, and the minister thinks that they are committing the following crimes, so Weichen wants to take this opportunity to bring all these people to justice." ”

Hearing this, Emperor Ling frowned and said, "Chen Qun, how did he stop me?" You're making such a big fuss! Forget it! Don't expand it anymore, it was Cao Cao who did it, you should settle accounts with Cao Cao, don't implicate the Chen family. ”

"Weichen takes the order!" Zhang Rang lowered his head and hugged his fists and said: "Your Majesty, in the morning, Weichen asked Taiwei Zhang Yan to send troops to search for the gangsters in the whole city, but Lord Taiwei refused the minister's request, and said that the minister was an unreasonable request, Zhang Yan's move was obviously to protect the gangsters, and asked Your Majesty to be the master of the minister." ”

Hearing this, Emperor Ling frowned and said, "Didn't you say that Cao Cao had escaped from Luoyang City before?" Why is there a city-wide search? The Chen family has nothing to do with this matter, don't make a fuss, go ahead! ”

"Wechen obeys!" Zhang Rang bowed to Emperor Ling, saluted his fists, and then turned to leave.

After Zhang Rang left, Emperor Ling looked at Zhang Rang's back and shook his head slightly: The development momentum of the Chen family is fierce, but the Chen family is a child of Chen Qun, so there is nothing to worry about, you don't want to deal with those big families, but only pick soft pinching, it's really useless waste!

After Zhang Rang returned to his residence, he ordered the lifting of martial law in the city.

On the evening of the second day of the Lunar New Year, after Guan Thirteen, who was sure to be fine, left Luoyang City, he and his three accompanying brothers went straight to Shaomu Mountain.

At this time, Zhang Yan had already informed Chen Qun of what had happened in Luoyang City, which made Chen Qun very depressed, but Chen Qun did not tell anyone about it.

On the second night of the Lunar New Year, the brothers who escaped from Luoyang returned to Shaomu Mountain one after another, and Chen Qun ordered people to settle the brothers who came back, so that everyone could eat and rest again.

Xu Shu, Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun and others came to visit Chen Qun after hearing about the accident at Chen Ji Restaurant in Luoyang City.

Xu Shu frowned after seeing Chen Qun and said: "Changwen, I said in the morning that Cao Cao returned the gold so quickly, and the way the gold came from must be not right, sure enough, it is the same as I guessed, Cao Cao's move is really despicable!" You were expecting him to block the sword for us in Luoyang City, but now it's okay, but let's block the knife for Cao Cao. ”

Chen Qun nodded: "Senior brother is taught!" What do we do now? I didn't expect Senior Brother Opera to go to Cao Cao's side, this matter must have been the idea that Senior Brother Opera gave Cao Cao, otherwise Cao Cao would not have done this. ”

Zhu Jun said in a deep voice when he heard this: "This Cao Cao is too unsentimental!" For his filthy purpose, he did anything. Changwen, you must next guard against the Ten Standing Servants sending people to attack the mountain city again. At least this time, we have seen how many manpower the Ten Standing Servants have prepared in Luoyang, and the threat to the mountain city is indeed very great. ”

Huangfu Song also frowned and said: "Yes, Changwen, since the matter has happened, we will face it calmly, and now there is no point in complaining about Cao Cao, and we will admit defeat."

At the very least, Cao Cao got rid of the twenty people who were closest to the Ten Standing Attendants, which was a great help to us, and also provided us with a practical way to deal with the Ten Standing Attendants. We can keep taking the people around the Ten Constant Attendants until no one dares to follow the Ten Permanent Attendants and others openly. ”

Chen Qun nodded: "Uncle, you're right!" After all, we also had the intention of using Cao Cao before, and now I have nothing to say about being used by Cao Cao. Cao Cao didn't dare to fight with the Ten Standing Servants, so let me come. ”

Xu Shu nodded: "This time, if the Ten Standing Servants dare to send people to attack Shaomu Mountain City again, then we will attack inside and out, and strive to kill all their minions, and the Ten Standing Servants will not be far from real defeat." ”

Chen Qun nodded: "Okay!" So be it! Worry no more, everyone! ”

Zhao Yun got up and said, "Changwen, then the teacher will go back tomorrow to prepare." ”

Chen Qun nodded: "Good master." ”

Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun also got up to say goodbye to Chen Qun.

On the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year, the people who came to Shaomuro Mountain for the New Year dispersed.

And it was also the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year, Jia Xu sent someone to send Zhang Rang to see him, although Zhang Rang didn't want to see Jia Xu after getting the news, but after all, there was such a big mess in the court, Zhang Rang had to go to see Jia Xu to see how the master explained.

Zhang Rang knew that it was easy to hide this matter from the Spirit Emperor, but how to explain it to the master had become his biggest headache.

On the way to see Jia Xu, Zhang Rang heard the nursery rhyme that had made him doubt for a long time: "God orders the emperor, don't dare to disobey, success is also a god, defeat is also a god, the emperor orders the emperor, the emperor orders the emperor, the emperor orders the return, the world is peaceful." ”

Zhang Rang walked past a group of children playing, wondering why this nursery rhyme was circulating again, Zhang Rang thought about it for a long time, thinking that it was a prank by some ill-intentioned people, but when he heard this nursery rhyme again, Zhang Rang frowned and pondered.

Zhang Rang thought about it while walking all the way, and after seeing Jia Xu, Zhang Rang saluted Jia Xu: "Zhang Rang meets Master Jia." ”

Jia Xu looked at Zhang Rang and nodded: "Zhang Rang, I won't say much about the superfluous, I know your little thoughts, but I hope you can do things for your master wholeheartedly." ”

"Master Jia is too worried! It is our duty to do our best to serve our masters and repay the kindness of our masters. Zhang Rang interrupted Jia Xu's words and smiled, but his smile seemed to Jia Xu to be a naked provocation.

Jia Xu didn't say anything, but looked at Zhang Rang and continued: "Okay! The master has two orders, and you must do your best to implement them, one is to persuade Emperor Ling to rebuild the South Palace as soon as possible, and the other is to send someone to take the Shaomu Mountain City.

Zhang Rang, the master let me tell you that the geographical location of Shaomuro Mountain City is extremely superior, and there is an atmosphere that has been inherited for thousands of years, and the master plans to build the headquarters there after you take Shaomuro Mountain City. ”

Zhang Rang looked at Jia Xu and frowned and said, "Lord Jia, if you hadn't attacked Shaomu Mountain before, then your subordinates guaranteed to be able to take it, but you have already attacked it once before, and you failed!" There must be a strong defensive force on the side of Shaomuro Mountain, and if we want to attack again, I'm afraid it won't be so easy.

What's more, now that the Taishou of Yin in Henan Province and Hanoi County are very close to the side of Shaomu Mountain, if we want to attack again, it will be very difficult and almost impossible to achieve. ”

Jia Xu nodded and said: "The master knows that you will say this, so the master still has an explanation, although you attack Shaomu Mountain with all your might, the people of the White Horse Hall will contain Zhao Yun, the Taishou of Henan Yin, and Zhu Jun, the Taishou of Hanoi County." But be clear in advance, the master will only send someone to contain them, and will not help you get rid of them. You still have to solve the bitter fruits you have sown. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Rang hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Thank you for your help, please tell the master that Master Jia will live up to the master's high expectations." ”

"So much the best!" Jia Xu nodded and continued: "You send someone to inform me as soon as possible after you set the time for attacking Shaomu Mountain City, and I will arrange for the people of the White Horse Hall to help you act." ”

"It's a deal! Leave. Zhang Rang saluted Jia Xu and turned to leave.

Zhang Rang couldn't help but ponder after Jia Xu's broken temple: Attacking Shaomu Mountain City, the current Shaomu Mountain City is really not as easy to start as before, and if you don't get it right, you will lose both.

After Zhang Rang returned to the palace, he immediately convened the ten permanent attendants to discuss and informed everyone of the master's orders.

Zhao Zhong waited for Zhang Rang to finish speaking, and took the lead in saying: "Big brother, there is no need to discuss this matter, let's do it!" ”

Zhang Rang nodded: "I know this, but how many men should we send to attack Shaomu Mountain City?" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Zhong frowned and said, "Big brother, do you mean to send the Yulin Army?" ”

Zhang Rang nodded: "Yes, if we only send those 50,000 men over, I am worried that we will not be able to take Shaomu Mountain, and if we also send 20,000 Yulin troops over, then once things change, we will lose our greatest support." ”

Zhao Zhong frowned when he heard this: "Big brother, I think those 50,000 people are enough!" The Yulin Army is our greatest reliance on controlling the court, and until the last moment, the Yulin Army must not be dispatched. ”

When the eunuchs heard this, they all nodded yes, Zhang Rang actually didn't want to send Yulin Jun over in his heart, he saw that everyone agreed, so he said in a deep voice: "Okay!" Then we will negotiate and send 50,000 members of the Eagle Hall to attack Shaomuro Mountain Castle. ”

"Good!" Everyone agreed in unison.

Zhang Rang nodded: "Then the brothers should hurry up and prepare!" The attack on the Shomuro Mountain Castle can only succeed, not fail, and if it fails, you will wait to bear the wrath of the master together! ”
