Chapter 794: Sad Luoyang
Cao Pi died, falling from the four-zhang high White Tiger Gate, and when Cao De rushed to the front and jumped off the horse, the blood had already flowed all over the ground.
On the White Tiger Gate, Cao Zhi and Cao Zhang lay on the female wall, screaming with all their might; Under the White Tiger Gate, Cao De stood quietly in front of Cao Pi's corpse. Not far away, all the soldiers stopped and watched silently......
I don't know how long it took, the gate of the White Tiger Gate opened, Cao Zhi and Cao Zhang ran out, fell on Cao Pi's body and cried.
"Someone! An order was given to Xu Shu, all military operations were immediately stopped, and the whole line was put on the defensive. Always be vigilant against the movements of Liu Bei and Sun Ce. In addition, I have to tell Xu Shu what happened here. ”
"No!" A soldier dressed as a guard immediately agreed and ran.
————
By the time Mrs. Bian woke up, it was already the third watch of the night.
"Pi'er, my Pi'er!" fell from such a high palace gate, not to mention the arrow stuck in Cao Pi's chest, Cao Pi must have died and could not die again.
And Cao Pi is Mrs. Bian's eldest son, how can she be a mother when her son dies......
When Madame Bian was carried down the White Tiger Gate, Cao De's army had already marched into the palace. The Praetorian Guards in the palace threw away their weapons and chose to surrender after seeing the Hanzhong knights in fresh clothes and angry horses.
And Cao Pi's guards and cronies didn't know what to do. Although some people threw away their weapons with the Praetorian Guards, they were still pinned to the ground by the red knights who swarmed up.
Cao De had been to the White Tiger Gate, but Liu Xie had already lost his breath at that time.
No one thought that it would be such a result.
Cao Pi killed Liu Xie, took the crown himself, and loudly announced that he would ascend the throne and become emperor. The arrow that shot Cao Pi was shot by Huang Wudie, and it was Cao De's order when he heard Cao Pi's enthronement declaration.
"Carry Your Majesty back!" Cao De glanced at Liu Xie's corpse a few times, and after saying a few words, he walked towards the South Palace.
On the way, Cao De kept thinking, why? Why did Cao Pi do this.
Cao De didn't know.
Why did Cao Pi ambush himself, this Cao De understood. Cao Pi was worried that he would make the King of Wei an empty shelf. Moreover, what kind of King Wei will become in the end, Cao Pi has no bottom in his heart. Therefore, Cao Pi did it frantically.
After that, Cao De escaped death. Cao Pi panicked, and after returning to Luoyang, Cao Pi ordered all the troops around Luoyang to be concentrated in Luoyang. However, when Cao Pi's soldiers saw that the enemy was actually Cao De, and Cao De also explained the reason for the incident. The soldiers hesitated. But it was this hesitation. Cao De's people were able to climb the city wall so easily. And after that, if it weren't for Xiahoudun's help, Cao De wouldn't have broken the city so quickly.
Although Luoyang is strong, it is a famous city in the world. But today, Cao De's time to break Luoyang also broke the record. Less than half an hour. Luoyang City has already changed hands. This is unprecedented. And if it weren't for Xiahoudun and the soldiers defending the city to release water, I'm afraid that Cao De's 35,000 cavalry attacking the city would not have much left.
In the South Palace, Cao De had already come to Liu Xie's dormitory before. The strong smell of blood, the stumps and broken arms everywhere, even the battle-hardened Cao De couldn't help but walk out again immediately.
"It's burning!"
The raging fire engulfed this magnificent hall that had just been restored for more than ten years just because of Cao De's two words.
The smoke of the thugs rolled up into the sky, and outside the White Tiger Gate, teams of defeated soldiers with their hands tied were pushed out under the strict watch of the red knights.
"The prime minister has an order! Since you are Cao Pi's guard, you are Cao Pi's person in life, and you are also Cao Pi's ghost in death! Shoot the arrows! ”
This was the first time, and this was the first time Cao De had killed a prisoner. And this killing, more than 4,000 people were killed.
Outside the White Tiger Gate, the screams broke through the clouds and penetrated into Mrs. Bian's ears in an instant.
"Mother, uncle ordered, Brother Pi's guards are all buried for Brother Pi!"
Liu Xie, who was the Son of Heaven, was killed by Cao Pi, and then Cao Pi, who had usurped the throne, was killed by Cao De.
But now, everyone's attention is on Cao Pi. And the body of Liu Xie, the Son of Heaven, has not been taken care of since it was carried into the Deyang Palace.
Now, the owner of Luoyang City is Cao De, Cao De didn't speak, who messed up.
"Zhao Yun! Raise 10,000 troops to patrol the whole city, and kill anyone who takes the opportunity to make trouble! ”
"Lu Bu, order three thousand troops and take over Nangong. All the Janissaries were disarmed and returned to the camp, and anyone who did not obey was killed. ”
"Cao Fan, bring three hundred horsemen, the civil and military ministers who are still alive in the city, you will visit them one by one, and the hall will be discussed tomorrow."
"Huang Wudie, take 3,000 soldiers and take over the North Palace!"
……
Cao De's orders after orders made Luoyang, which had already begun to be chaotic, even more chaotic.
Murderous scenes are being staged everywhere in the entire Luoyang City, and there are ruffians and hooligans who take advantage of the chaos to rob.
Under Zhao Yun's order, the red knights quickly dispersed in units of Wu and Shi.
A few ruffians were plundering a grain store, and three knights in red suits rushed in on their horses.
"Bold thieves, actually take advantage of the fire to rob. The prime minister has an order, and there is no forgiveness for killing! The knight at the head of them roared, and the sharp sword was already unsheathed.
A few cold flashes of light flashed, and the ruffians in the grain store had turned into corpses.
"Where's the store?" The knight didn't leave immediately after killing people,
"Army, military master! Small, small...... At! ”
"Cut off the thief's right hand, and tomorrow you can go to the Wei Wangfu to receive a part of the silver. The prime minister said that although the money is not much, it can also compensate for the loss of the store! ”
"Thank you, Prime Minister! It's a great grace for the villain to be rescued by all the military masters, how dare he ......"
"Gurgle, gurgle......"
Before the shopkeeper could finish his sentence, the three knights had already left the grain store on their horses and galloped away to the other shops that were in distress. "How dare you accept the prime minister's reward!"
That half a day and one night was a bloody night in Luoyang City. Afterwards, according to some incomplete statistics, in just nine hours, nearly 20,000 corpses of the residents of Luoyang City, including the ruffians and hooligans who were killed, and not including the soldiers killed during the siege, were pulled out of Luoyang City. And if you add the soldiers killed and killed in battle, the total number reaches more than 30,000 people!
30,000 people! It doesn't seem like much, but in a similar alternation of rights, there are really not many, but the current Luoyang City, how can it withstand such a toss.
More than ten years ago, Dong Zhuo's fire turned Luoyang City into nothing. It was Cao Cao who led the army into the ruined Luoyang City, and it took nearly ten years to almost restore Luoyang City to its previous state.
And in order to attract people to Luoyang City, Cao Cao did not go through careful inspections. No, this caused today's turmoil in which thousands of homes were robbed. Fortunately, Cao De's cavalry appeared in time, and although there were many dead people in Luoyang City, the losses caused were still within a controllable range. At the very least, after Cao De opened Liu Xie and Cao Pi's treasury, he paid the compensation promised before. And Cao De also brought endless prestige to himself because of this huge expenditure. And this prestige is not very important now, but later, Cao De is also very happy: take other people's money and do practical things for himself!
