Zhang Liao noticed that Luoyang was strange and ordered the whole army to continue westward towards Hangu Pass. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Li Xianzhong, Di Qing and others at the head of Luoyang City did not dare to pursue, waiting for Liu Wei and others to arrive.

But half an hour, under the east gate of Luoyang, the sound of war horses galloping sounded again.

"Your Majesty?" Di Qing shouted at the city tower.

"I am Yang Zaixing, who is in the city?" Yang Zaixing wanted to continue to chase west, but he didn't want the general in the city to be quite respectful to Liu Wei, so he couldn't help but ask back.

"Zaixing, I'm loyal!" On the city wall, Li Xianzhong heard Yang Zaixing's voice and shouted to the city.

Li Xianzhong and Yang Zaixing, as the first batch of generals who took refuge in Liu Bian, knew each other very well, and the relationship between Yang Zaixing and Yang Yansi was no worse, but since June last year, Li Xianzhong guarded the party, and Yang Zaixing followed Liu Bian to fight in Taiyuan, so he heard Yang Zaixing's voice, and Li Xianzhong seemed excited.

"Loyalty? Are you loyal? Your Majesty is loyal in Luoyang City! Yang Zaixing also heard Li Xianzhong's voice and shouted excitedly.

On the city wall, Li Xianzhong said to Lin Renzhao, Di Qing and the others with a happy face: "It's Your Majesty, that's right, everyone follow me out of the city to greet Your Majesty." ”

"So I'll hurry up and greet Your Majesty!"

Lin Renzhao and other generals quickly descended to the city to greet Liu Wei.

And Liu Wei in the city heard Yang Zaixing's shout, and his first reaction was not excitement, but full of doubts. How could Li Xianzhong be in Luoyang? Even if Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Xiliang, it would only be a matter of two days, how could Li Xianzhong be so fast? It even seems to be in control of Luoyang.

Could it be that Dong Zhuo retreated with the whole army and gave up Luoyang, but with Li Ru's character, how could he let himself get Luoyang so easily? However, seeing that Luoyang was fine, Liu Wei was relieved.

Liu Wei originally thought that Zhang Liao's army would enter Luoyang, and when the time came, the princes' army would besiege Luoyang together. But he didn't want Li Xianzhong to be on the city wall.

Luoyang Liu Wei has always wanted that from a strategic point of view, Luoyang is in danger of Zhongzhong, and sitting firmly in Luoyang is equivalent to mastering the rich land of Guanzhong, and it is difficult for the enemy to attack.

And from Luoyang, you can attack Jizhou to the east, and you can enter Yuzhou, Jingzhou Nanyang and other places to the south. With millions of people, it can be said that it is the easiest place to develop.

The capitals of several countries in later generations, such as Nanjing, Beijing and other places, are far inferior to the current Luoyang in terms of strategy, and they are even more different from each other in terms of economic prosperity.

From the beginning of the princes' discussion of Dong, Liu Wei was worried that Dong Zhuo would move the capital and that Luoyang would be burned down. So he ordered Li Xianzhong and others to garrison the Yellow River, and when there was an accident in Luoyang, they would come to the rescue. In fact, Liu Wei didn't have much to do about Dong Zhuo's burning of Luoyang, so he could only try his best to remedy it, and Li Xianzhong and other soldiers and horses left on the bank of the Yellow River were Liu Wei's followers. Unexpectedly, there was such a big surprise.

"Crunch!"

The city gate slowly opened, and Li Xianzhong, Lin Renzhao, and Xiahou Yuan walked side by side, followed by Di Qing and Lin Chong. Five later, the soldiers' torches were raised.

Seeing the arrival of Li Xianzhong and others, Liu Wei turned over and dismounted, and the princes from all walks of life saw that Luoyang City had been successful, and obviously did not plan to pursue again.

"Wechen has seen Your Majesty!" Li Xianzhong, Lin Renzhao, and Xiahou Yuan said excitedly.

"Sin General Di Qing has seen Your Majesty! Cao Min Lin Chong has seen Your Majesty! Behind Li Xianzhong, Di Qing and Lin Chong also bowed to Liu Wei.

"Half a year apart, the three Aiqing have worked hard!" Liu Wei held the hands of the three people, helped the three of them up, and greeted them for a while.

"Han Chen is loyal to the Han family, and bending to Dong Zhuo is a matter of internal responsibility, how can he be a criminal general?" Liu Wei walked in front of Di Qing and helped Di Qing up.

"Thank you Your Majesty for your trust!" Di Qing said with excitement on his face.

"Who is this?" Liu Wei helped Di Qing up and looked at Lin Chong, who was excited when he heard Lin Chong introduce himself. But Liu Wei couldn't be too exaggerated, and asked knowingly.

"This is the former head of the forbidden army, Lin Chong, nicknamed the head of the leopard, a certain family can stabilize Luoyang this time, thanks to his help!" Next to him, Xia Houdun explained.

"Oh? It turns out that he is also loyal to the Han family, and when I come over this time, I will definitely be rewarded for my meritorious deeds! Liu Wei first promised a blank check and said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lin Chong was also overjoyed when he heard this.

"Miaocai, what's going on? Why are you in Luoyang, Dong Zhuo? Cao Cao also walked up and asked Xiahou Yuan suspiciously.

The other princes all stepped forward and looked at Li Xianzhong and the others with surprised faces.

"Your Majesty, brother, Dong Zhuo has moved the capital to Chang'an with the puppet emperor Liu Xie!" Xiahou Yuan said with a look of resentment.

"What, Dong Zhuo actually moved the capital?"

"It's hateful, I actually let that guy run away!"

"How can Dong Zhuo dare to move the capital?" Behind Liu Wei, the princes talked one after another.

"What the hell is going on? How did you end up in Luoyang? Liu Wei asked with a full of doubts.

"Your Majesty has a long journey, and it is a long story at this time, so it is better to enter the city first and tell Your Majesty one by one!" Li Xianzhong saw that Liu Bian's face was tired, and said with concern.

"What about Zhang Liao? You saw the Xiliang army before? Liu Wei was not in a hurry to rest, and asked where Xiliangjun went.

"That Zhang Liao acted cautiously, before he led a large army to enter the city, the minister wanted to deceive him under the city. Waiting for His Majesty to arrive, he should gather inside and outside and annihilate him, but unfortunately he was very vigilant, and when he sensed that something was wrong, he continued to go west! Li Xianzhong explained.

"Your Majesty, the Xiliang thief fled westward, and the minister thinks that he should continue to pursue westward!" After Liu Wei, Cao Cao immediately gave up.

As soon as Cao Cao's words came out, some princes were immediately unhappy.

"Cao Mengde, what kind of heart do you have? At this time, it is getting late, and to the west, it is a precipitous place, if there is an ambush, how can it be good? ”

"The cavalry under my command is already exhausted, but they can't chase it!"

"At this time, the sky is dark, I am worried that there is an ambush, if Your Majesty has a mistake, I can't afford it!" Gongsun Zan also shook his head and rejected Cao Cao's proposal.

"Your Majesty, continue to pursue at this moment, not to mention that you can break through Hangu Pass, but you can also destroy the tens of thousands of Xiliang soldiers, so you can also destroy Dong Zhuo's general strength!" Cao Cao looked at Liu and argued.

"That Liao Gaoshun is not an easy person, I don't think you should attack rashly!" Liu Wei shook his head and said.

When Cao Cao heard Liu Biao say this, he thought it was Liu Bian's resignation, he had never heard of Zhang Liao at all, how did he know that Zhang Liao was powerful? Cao Cao felt that the Xiliang soldiers were only defeated, and if they pursued with victory, they would definitely be able to win a complete victory.

Cao Cao was a little disapproving of Zhang Liao, thinking that Xiliang was just a group of defeated troops, as long as he led a few thousand soldiers and horses, he could pursue, so he said: "The generals of Xiliang are all incompetent, and they are willing to lead light cavalry to chase after them." ”

Since ancient times, with the victorious army, chasing the defeated army, with a very small number of troops, can achieve victory, Cao Cao's words, not the dragon's lair. It's not that Liu Wei doesn't want to pursue, firstly, he is worried that there will be an ambush, and secondly, the princes from all walks of life do not want to pursue.

"Your Majesty, there are still 3,000 cavalry in Luoyang City, and I am willing to chase and kill the Xiliang cavalry with my brother!" Xiahou Yuan also asked for battle. Previously, he even wanted to hit Dong Zhuo the most. Naturally, this opportunity will not be given up now.

"Your Majesty, the minister is also willing to go to pursue the Xiliang thieves." Behind Liu Wei, Xiahoudun also asked for battle.

Seeing that Cao Cao's Xiahou Yuan Xiahou Dun brothers asked for battle, Liu Wei couldn't bear to chill their hearts, so he had to nod and said: "Okay, I still have 5,000 cavalry here, plus 8,000 cavalry in Luoyang City, I will hand it over to you to pursue the Xiliang thief soldiers, and when the sky is clear, I will lead the army to meet you!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Cao Cao said overjoyed.

"But Zhang Liao, you must not be underestimated, you must be cautious along the way, and you must not take it lightly!" Liu Wei was not at ease, but still admonished.

Although Cao Cao doesn't know why, but in the past year, Liu Wei has promoted Lin Renzhao and Fan Zhongyan, these people, the ability, Cao Cao saw in his eyes, Liu Wei said that Zhang Liao's ability is extraordinary, that is definitely not a lie, Cao Cao nodded and kept his advice in his heart.

Liu Wei glanced at the generals around him again, and said to Yang Zaixing, Yang Yansi: "I'm afraid that Meng De is in danger, so I can only work hard for the two generals to accompany Meng De to the pursuit." ”

Yang Zaixing and Yang Yanhe, who were already belligerent people, listened to Liu Wei's words and said happily: "Your Majesty is serious, and the last general can't ask for it, so it's hard to talk about!" ”

"With two generals together, you will be able to win a great victory!" Cao Cao said happily.

After the matter was agreed, Cao Cao immediately led 8,000 cavalry to continue to chase the Xiliang soldiers. And Liu Wei led the other soldiers and horses to Luoyang to rest, and continued the pursuit early tomorrow morning. (To be continued.) )
