When he came, Gao Chang was in a hurry to march and hurry, and when he went back, a soldier was overworked for days, and hundreds of thousands of refugees were not as good as soldiers, and his foot strength was not good, so Gao Chang only walked for one day when he came, but when he went back, he walked for two days and two nights and did not reach Luoyang.
"Report, lord, I found hundreds of soldiers and horses in front, suspected to be Cao Cao, the cavalry general."
"Cao Mengde?"
Gao Chang paused, and a thought suddenly popped up in his mind: Kill this hero!
However, Gao Chang quickly gave up this idea, there are hundreds of thousands of people here, and there are many people who can't hide miscellaneous things, and besides, killing Cao Cao will only cheapen Liu Che and Yuan Shao, so that they can dominate the Central Plains faster, and he will carry the infamy of attacking and killing allies to cheapen Yuan Shao Liu Che Wouldn't it be a brain in water.
So, Gao Chang urged him to step forward and shouted in front of him: "The opposite side is Brother Meng De, a certain Gao Chang." ”
Cao Cao, who was on the other side, originally saw the firelight, thinking that it was the Xiliang Army chasing the army, and when he heard Gao Chang's shouting, he was relieved, and immediately stepped forward and said: "It turned out to be General Gao, Cao is here!" ”
。。。。。。。。。。
"Hey." Cao Cao sighed and said to Gao Chang: "I knew that the general was coming from behind, I shouldn't have let Liu Xuande and the others flee at that time, so that I missed such a good opportunity to counterattack. “
Gao Chang comforted Cao Cao and said: "Meng De doesn't have to be like this, as the so-called life sometimes has to happen, although Meng De was defeated, but Chang believes that after this battle, Brother Meng De's reputation for loyalty and patriotism will be far and wide, compared to Yuan Shao, who can only hide in the tent and chew the root of his tongue, I don't know how much stronger." “
"Very much!" Cao Cao, who had always acted as a peacemaker in the coalition forces, showed an angry expression for the first time, and said disdainfully: "A group of people who are short-sighted only care about their own interests, and never know the long-term plan. ”
Gao Chang nodded and said: "What Meng De said is extremely true, the princes have more than 800,000 alliances, if they can work together, how can Dong thieves not be destroyed!" ”
The two looked at each other speechlessly, and finally dispersed unhappily.
Two days later, Cao Cao and Gao Chang finally arrived in Luoyang, and as soon as they entered the Allied camp, they smelled the strong smell of wine in the tent. Cao Cao suddenly stretched his face, angrily opened the tent curtain, and walked into the big tent.
Most of the princes in the tent were drunk except for a few people, and suddenly the sunlight pierced their eyes, and they couldn't help but be furious.
Wang Qing, the Taishou of Jining County, was already half-drunk and half-awake, and was stabbed by the sun's rays in an instant, his eyes hurt, and he scolded angrily: "Blind your dog's eyes!" ”
"That's right, Cao is indeed blind!" Cao Cao pointed to the princes in the tent and said loudly: "I have started to prosper the righteousness, get rid of the thieves for the country, and the princes have come to fight for righteousness, but they are afraid of the head and tail, and the more than 800,000 troops of the princes of the twenty-six towns still let the Dong thieves burn Luoyang and go west to Chang'an." It was a certain family who saw the wrong people, and thought that they were loyal to the king, but they didn't expect that they were the people who sold their reputation and fished for their reputation, and they were in the company of you, and Cao was deeply ashamed. ”
"Cao Mengde, you don't want to be presumptuous!" Yuan Shao was scolded so much since he was a child, and he immediately took the case.
"What's more, Cao Mengde, you obviously fell into an ambush by Dong thieves because of your greed, and you still want to slander the princes." Dongjun Taishou Dou Jiande was also angry.
Cao Cao didn't hear it, and walked straight out of the big tent, "This princes' alliance Cao has seen it through, and he will leave!" ”
"Brother Mengde, slow down!" Gao Chang just walked a step slower, and at this time, he heard Cao Cao scolding angrily in the tent, knowing that the day when the alliance of princes would collapse was not far away, he immediately shouted, opened the tent curtain and entered the tent, grabbed Cao Mengde and said to the princes: "Everyone, Chang doesn't want to waste time here, leave with Brother Mengde today, and say goodbye!" ”
。。。。。。。。。。
Wang Shichong returned to Luoyang to take the mountain road, and was afraid that the Xiliang army would chase after him, so he returned to Luoyang one day later than Gao Chang Cao Cao, and heard about Cao Cao Gaochang, without saying a word, he ordered the whole army to withdraw from Luoyang.
Gao Chang, Cao Cao, and Wang Shichong left successively, and Liu Che, the assassin of Xuzhou, listened to the advice of Liu Bei, who fled back to Luoyang, under the pretext that he had left Xuzhou for too long, and there was too much government affairs piled up, and he led the troops back to the east.
Zhu Yuanzhang, the assassin of Yangzhou, said that Shanyue rose again, and also led his troops back to Jiangdong.
Gao Chang, Zhu Yuanzhang, Liu Che, and Wang Shichong were all the main members of the allied forces, and they left one after another, and the strength of the entire allied army was greatly reduced.
Tao Qian, Tang Bi, Wang Qing and other princes, seeing that the power of the allied forces had been greatly reduced, were afraid that Dong Zhuo would make a comeback, and their own troops would all become cannon fodder.
In the end, Yuan Shao, Yuan Yi, Wang Kuang, Zhang Yang, Zhang Chao and several other Yuan lords' sons who still remained in Luoyang announced to the world that Dong Zhuo was defeated by the princes' coalition army and retreated to Guanzhong.
When this news came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the world, and there were advocates; There are those who slammed; There are those who remain neutral; There are also those who are dismissive.
But no matter what the scholars say, the dissolution of the alliance of princes is already a sure fact, and the Han world has entered a situation of competing for the deer!
