Chapter 479: Wen Ruo is not weak (first update)
On the city of Xuchang, *** is bright. Whole \ Ben // Small \ Say // Net
Xun's face was full of tiredness, but he still insisted on standing on the city, and together with the defenders, resisted the crazy offensive of the Xuzhou army.
It seems that Xu Yu is not going to give this credit to Guan Yu!
Their purpose is very clear, they must break through Xuchang and capture the Han Emperor Liu Xie before Guan Yu defeats the men and horses of Lou Gui in Yangxiang.
This is the task given to them by Liu Bei. No matter what kind of reputation Liu Bei has on his back, one thing is undeniable, he has a very charismatic personality. People like Xu Youhu are bowing down to him, and they can't wait to put their lives on the line to repay their kindness.
Especially Xu Yu and Xu Ziyuan, who can also be regarded as characters who have experienced vicissitudes.
In his words: "Xuande Gong is generous, benevolent and gentle, and has the style of a high ancestor. Once everything is decided, let it go and do it, and never interfere with it. ”
At this point, whether it is Xu You or Sima Lang, they all think that in the whole world, only Dong Neng and Liu Bei can be compared.
Xu You has taken refuge in Liu Bei for many years, but he has not achieved an inch. Liu Bei treated him as if he were a brother when he was under Yuan Shao, which was enough for Xu You to abandon all kinds of selfish thoughts and work hard for Liu Bei. But this life is more comfortable than selling Yuan Shao's life.
Xun Tie's face was blue, looking at the Xuzhou army retreating like a tide under the city, and he was very depressed.
Cao Zhang walked up to his side and whispered, "Taifu, it's a little unbearable." The city began to be in turmoil, and the morale of the soldiers was also very low. Frustrated this guy is crazy, from dawn to now, nearly twenty attacks, some people are about to collapse! ”
Cao Zhang is in the city. It's been almost twenty days.
When he first went to the city, he was still a strong-blooded and high-spirited boy. But more than ten days have passed, and Cao Zhang has obviously matured.
If you want to make a person grow, the best way is to let him be tested in blood and fire.
Cao Zhang brought out 50 generals from the Prime Minister's Mansion, and now more than 40 people are killed or wounded. Most of them, who grew up with Cao Zhang, are a little older than Cao Zhang, and are now gone. Former friends. fell one by one, which was enough to make Cao Zhang numb. The face was smaller than before, and the baby fat looked gone, replaced by a fierce air.
Xun looked at Cao Zhang with great satisfaction, very satisfied with his performance these days.
It's a pity, if Cao Zhang could have been born five or six years early, he must have become famous. Thinking of this, Xun patted Cao Zhang.
"The third prince is worthy of the prime minister. Brave and brave...... The more aggressive the frustrated bird is now, the shorter its staying power will be. If it can last until dawn, the morale of the Xuzhou army will be exhausted. The third prince is relieved that it is imperative that we let the city settle down. ”
"What do you think?"
"When it is extraordinary, when it is extraordinary. Please ask the third prince to bring people and bring the people in the mansions of the officials of various provinces in Xuchang City. All of them are extracted. The children of the eunuchs, all over the age of sixteen, were to go to the city to fight. Doing so will at least make the soldiers feel a little comfortable...... Anyone who does not obey the dispatch will be killed! In addition, he ordered Xu Ding, the captain of the forbidden army, to strengthen patrols in the city. From now on, anyone who spreads rumors will be killed on the spot...... Third son, you have to remember that at this time. Don't be merciful. ”
Xu Ding is Xu Chu's brother and a brave man.
When Xu Chu followed Cao Cao, he brought out hundreds of clansmen from Xujiawu, and Xu Ding was second only to Xu Chu. It's just that on weekdays, most of them are Xu Chu, although Cao Cao fought in the south and north, and Xu Ding was responsible for the safety in Xuchang City, so his reputation was not prominent.
At this point, Xun must also mobilize the forbidden army.
Cao Zhang led the people down the city, and Xun was still in the city. Paying attention to the movements of the Xuzhou army.
Soon, the first batch of young generals came to the city. Among them, Xiahou Chong, the son of Xiahou, and Xiahou Lian, the son of Xiahou Yuan, are all majestic and high-spirited. These young masters and sons went to the city. not only brought thousands of soldiers from various prefectures. And, to a large extent, the garrison of the city was also a pawn. Feel excited.
At this time, Frustrated Hu launched an attack on Xuchang again......
This night is undoubtedly extremely sad for the people of Xuchang.
The shouts of killing in the city continued throughout the night, and from time to time huge boulders fell from the sky, destroying many houses.
By dawn, the Xuzhou army finally stopped the offensive. The casualties on both sides were very heavy, and even Xun was shot with an arrow.
The guards of the city, please go back and rest for the time being.
Xun, seeing that the Xuzhou army would be unable to attack again for a while, dragged his tired body back home. He fell asleep on the couch and fell asleep at once. I slept until dark, and I was able to recover my spirits.
Tang asked his subordinates to cook a little noodle soup and brought it over to satisfy Xun's hunger.
Before he could swallow a mouthful of noodle soup, he heard a loud rumbling sound in the distance, followed by a loud noise, and the sound of killing echoed in the sky.
"What's going on?"
Xun put down the bowl and got up.
As soon as he ran out of the mansion, he saw Xiahou Chong Pegasus coming, "Taifu, it's not good." The Xicheng guards surrendered, and the Zhong family reversed! ”
Xun didn't react for a moment, "Zhong family? ”
"It's the late Taichang Zhong Xuan's brother, Zhong Yan...... He's the opposite! ”
How could the old Zhong family be reversed?
Xun subconsciously shuddered, and shouted sharply: "Order Xu Ding to recapture the West Gate and drive the Xuzhou army out for me...... Xiahou Chong, your brother immediately ascended to the city to defend against the enemy. Ordered Cao Zhang to lead people to suppress the rebels in the city. Also, the families of all the prefectures went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to assemble. ”
Xuchang has become a slaughterhouse.
After Xun finished giving the order, he immediately ordered the accompanying soldiers and horses and rushed to Xicheng.
But halfway through, he suddenly reined in his mount.
Wrong......
Why is the Zhong family opposed? There must be articles in this. Now that the soldiers and horses of the whole city have been mobilized, isn't the imperial city slack?
"Cao Tai Lezhao, follow me to the palace!"
Xun couldn't say the reason, but reacted intuitively. This matter must have something to do with the Han Emperor. Cao Tai is the son of Cao Ren, eighteen years old, and Le Zhao is the son of Le Jin, who has reached the crown. From the beginning of the Battle of Xuchang, these two people followed Xundi to fight.
Although I don't know why Xun suddenly changed his mind, the two of them quickly followed behind Xun.
On the way, he met Cao Zhang, solved Zhong Hui's family, and led the people to the city. It's also a coincidence. When Zhong Yan opened the city, when the people of the Zhong family were in turmoil, Cao Zhang happened to patrol near the Zhong family and met the people of the Zhong family, and then there was a massacre.
The Zhong family and its generals, more than 300 people from all over the door, were all killed by Cao Zhang, including Zhong Yu, the eldest son of Zhong Xuan.
In the face of such a thing, Cao Zhang will not be a little merciful. Xundi dialect. Still ringing in his ears, how could he let the other party go?
"Taifu, why do we go to the imperial city if we don't go to the city?"
"I'm worried, I'm worried that someone is doing right and wrong!"
Xun didn't have time to explain, and he beat his horse and whipped along the way. Although Cao Zhang didn't understand what was going on, he still followed behind Xun.
The gates of the Imperial City Palace are wide open!
When Xun arrived with someone. I happened to see Liu Xie, supported by Ma Ri and others, walking towards the chariot.
"Your Majesty, where are you going?
Xun shouted loudly.
Ma Rihuang Wan was startled, and Liu Xie's legs and stomach also trembled, and he almost fell off the chariot.
Seeing Xun coming with someone, Ma Ri Huang Wan also knew that this matter had been revealed. It turned out that as early as when Liu Bei began to attack Runan, Liu Bei wrote a letter in the name of his father-in-law. Secretly sent Xuchang. At that time, Xuchang City was preparing for war, Cao Cao had already set out to rush to Sour Zao, and the guards in the city were in a short vacuum. This letter passed through Ma Ri and went to Liu Xiedi's hands.
Liu Bei used sincere words in the letter.
said that the traitors outside were in charge, and there were traitors who set up a name and called the emperor in Chang'an. The dynasty is sluggish. The emperor should strive for self-improvement. Although I, Liu Bei, don't have any skills, I also know the way of loyalty. So please come to Xuzhou, I would like to assist the emperor and the Han family.
Liu Xie was not an honest master in the first place.
The reason why he has been silent is that he was afraid of being killed by Cao Cao. Previously. The auxiliary general Fu Wan had plotted to cause rebellion. was beaten and killed by Cao Cao. As a result, the Manchu Dynasty was killed civilly and militarily. Almost no one listened to Liu Xie's words, except for a few old courtiers who accompanied Liu Xie from Luoyang to Chang'an, from Chang'an to Xuchang, the entire Xuchang was from Cao Cao, and he couldn't toss if he wanted toss.
Now, here's the opportunity......
As soon as Ma Ri and the others saw that the matter was revealed, they shouted: "Su Guard, stop them and protect the emperor from leaving!" ”
How old Huang Wan is, he also drew his sword and rushed forward with people. These more than 1,000 guards are all private soldiers who are loyal to Liu Xiedi's ministers and are drawn from their homes. But if you want to compete with these soldiers and horses around Xun, it is unlikely.
Cao Zhang took the lead and twisted the gun to kill Huang Wan.
A group of wolf-like soldiers, under the leadership of Cao Tai and Le Zhao, slaughtered the guards to pieces. However, taking advantage of this opportunity, Liu Xie boarded the chariot and shouted loudly: "Old lady, let's go, let's go!" ”
Ma Ri urged the vehicle to rush in the direction of Xicheng.
Xun led a group of men and horses to chase after him, desperately blocking the way of the chariot. Ma Ri accidentally fell from the chariot and was crushed by the horse's hooves behind him. Blood flowed all over the ground with a brain. And Liu Xie was stunned, still urging the vehicle forward.
"Your Majesty, where are you going!"
Directly ahead, a troop of men and horses blocked the way of the chariot.
The general was covered in blood, and he was stabbed in the palm of his crotch, and he was murderous.
It was Xu Ding, the captain of the forbidden army, who led the people to arrive.
At this time, Cao Tai Lezhao also led people over, Xun urged him to step forward immediately, and said coldly: "The emperor is in such a hurry, but where is he going?" ”
Liu Xie was so frightened that he couldn't speak at this moment, and his face turned pale.
Xun said to Xu Ding: "General, please escort the emperor back to the palace...... From now on, no one will be allowed to enter or leave the Imperial City without my orders. ”
"Whoa!"
Xu Ding didn't say a word, and ordered someone to pull the chariot and go back.
Xun couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and took Cao Tai and Le Zhao to the direction of Xicheng. Although the rebellion was quelled, the trouble was not resolved.
Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and asked, "What about Cao Zhang?" Where did the third son go? ”
"The third prince has entered the palace!"
"Into the palace?"
Xun Yi shuddered, and shouted, "Cao Tai, can you two see the figure of the eldest lady in the chariot just now?" ”
Cao Tai and Le Zhao were stunned, shook their heads, and said softly: "I haven't seen it!" ”
The eldest lady refers to the queen Cao Jie, that is, Cao Cao's eldest daughter. Liu Xie fled, and it was impossible for Cao Jie not to know. She didn't go with Liu Xie, could she say......
"Oh no, let's go back!"
Xun turned his horse's head and led people to the palace again.
But when he entered the palace gate, he found that Xu Ding was with soldiers and horses, all with a wry smile. And Cao Zhang stood on the wheel, grabbed the trembling Emperor Han, held a short sword in one hand, his eyes were red as if blood was dripping, and shouted angrily: "Dog thief, return my sister's life!" "Third son, don't ......"
Xun shouted, trying to stop Cao Zhang.
But it's over!
Cao Zhang held a short sword, and a sword stabbed into Liu Xie's chest. Liu Xie screamed, but the short sword in Cao Zhang's hand took advantage of the situation and dug out Liu Xie's heart. Xu Ding and the others were dumbfounded. Xun felt that before the chariot, Liu Xie's blood sprayed his face.
"Third son, how are you ......?"
"This dog emperor, kill my eldest sister!"
Cao Zhang has a very good relationship with his sister Cao Jie, Cao Jie is much older than Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhang's mother, Mrs. Bian, is not in good health, and Cao Jie has always taken care of Cao Zhang when she was a child.
Xun clenched his fists, suddenly turned around, and shouted to Xu Ding and the others: "Remember, you didn't see anything, did you hear it?" ”
Xu Ding and the others bowed down to answer the order.
Xun dragged Cao Zhang out of the chariot, turned his head and said to Cao Tai: "You accompany the third prince and take the eldest lady back to the mansion." Remember, you are not allowed to say a word without my command. Otherwise, Hugh blames me for not being emotional...... Xu Ding, clean the vehicle, and help the emperor in. ”
Xun used a support word, which meant to tell Xu Ding: Remember, the emperor is still alive!
It is true that the Han dynasty has declined, but with the rise of Chang'an, the situation has become very complicated. Liu Xie is still the emperor no matter what. The crime of killing the emperor, at least for the time being, is by no means a crime that anyone, no prince, can bear. If it spreads, Xuchang will be chaotic.
What to do?
Xun sat on the steps of the Jinluan Treasure Hall, meditating on the solution.
Seeing that Liu Xie could not be picked up, he did not mobilize troops and horses. This night, everyone spent the night in inexplicable panic.
