Chapter Eighty-Nine: Pursuing Dong Zhuo

"My lord, the fire in Luoyang has been extinguished, seventeen brothers have died in the firefighting, and one hundred and twenty-nine others have suffered burns of varying severity. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Guo Jia cautiously reported to Gao Changyu.

Dong Zhuo's fire was so powerful that even though Gao Chang mobilized nearly 70,000 troops under his command to fight the fire with all his might, in the end, the fire burned for two days and two nights, and Luoyang, the century-old imperial capital, was still burned to ashes.

For the past two days, Gao Chang has been directing the firefighting without sleep, and his voice has become hoarse at this moment, "The injured should hurry up to find a military doctor for treatment, be careful of the deterioration of the wound, and the dead will be counted according to the battle death, and the family will be divided into 30 acres of land, and the government will subsidize 10 taels of silver every year." β€œ

Guo Jiayi arched his hand and said, "No! β€œ

"Fengxiao, how many people are left in Luoyang City?"

Guo Jia showed a trace of sadness in his eyes, "Lord Yu, according to Xuan Ling's statistics, now counting all the villages near Luoyang, the total number is less than 50,000, and the population is about 200,000. β€œ

Gao Chang said sadly and angrily: "I think I took you back from the expedition to Shu, at that time, Luoyang alone, there were 300,000 households, and nearly 2 million people, in less than three years, Luoyang has become like this, Dong Zhuo is an old horseman, he is alive for a day, and he will harm the world for a day!" β€œ

"Newspaperβ€”"

When Gao Chang and Guo Jiazheng were talking, they saw a scout rushing over, panting and reporting to Gao Changyu: "My lord, there is a force of men and horses outside the city, under the banner of Cao Cao, the general of Fenwei, Wang Shichong, the assassin of Songzhou, and Liu Che, the assassin of Xuzhou, bypassing Luoyang City and killing directly to the west. β€œ

"Cao Cao? Wang Shichong? How many soldiers and horses did they carry? Guo Jia heard the scout's report and hurriedly asked.

"Back to the military division, the three of them led about 15,000 soldiers and horses, but they were all cavalry, according to the villain's observation, all of them were fine cavalry, not infantry on horseback."

"Cao Mengde, Wang Shichong, Liu Che, a few of them are indeed not simple!" Gao Chang said lightly.

Guo Jia said: "My lord, according to the bottom of the view, most of the princes are some people with little eyes, and there are few who can really be counted as heroes, and Cao Cao, Wang Shichong and Liu Che happen to be among them, and the other is Yang Su and Zhu Yuanzhang, but Yang Su is now far away in Mengjin, and Zhu Yuanzhang can't even get a decent cavalry, otherwise, these two people will inevitably chase Dong Zhuo." ”

Gao Chang said in a deep voice: "Han lost his deer, and the heroes chased it together." Feng Xiao, in your opinion, should I pursue Dong Zhuo. ”

Guo Jia Zhengse said: "Yes, this is the time for the lord to make a big reputation. ”

"But it's definitely not to join Cao Cao and the others to chase it together!" Guo Jia's words changed, "Dong Zhuo has been galloping on the battlefield for decades, and the withdrawal of the army will inevitably leave an ambush army, according to Jia, Cao Cao and others are bound to be defeated, and when Dong Zhuo defeats Cao Cao and others, he is bound to relax his guard and return with a light car, and our chasing army will definitely win a big victory." ”

Gao Chang muttered to himself: "I'll go, isn't this Jia Xu's strategy in the Battle of Wancheng?" After the chasing soldiers, there are chasing soldiers, and they do the opposite, but speaking of which, Guo Ghost has only been born for so long, and this Jia Poisoner is still unknown, and I don't know if he is still in the system memory of the heroic spirit. ”

"Phewβ€”"

Cao Cao pulled the reins, strangled the war horse under his crotch, sat on the horse, stared ahead, and asked in a deep voice to his brother Cao Ren, "Zixiao, where are we now?" ”

Cao Ren replied: "My lord, this is already the territory of Michi. ”

"Brother Meng De, I see that it is getting late, why don't you rest here?" Liu Bei on the side suggested.

Liu Che's own martial arts are not high, plus the Xuzhou army has more than 70,000 people, and all the people who are chasing Dong Zhuo are elite cavalry, but there are only four or five thousand people, so Liu Che still stayed in the allied army camp to command the soldiers and horses, and only sent his brother Liu Bei to follow Cao Cao to pursue Dong Zhuo.

"Xuande Gong's words are wrong, now that His Majesty is covered with dust, how can we, as courtiers, only care about our own rest and ignore Your Majesty's safety?" Wang Shichong said with a cold face on the side.

Compared with Liu Che's gentleman who does not stand under the wall, Wang Shichong and Cao Cao are both very adventurous people, this time the pursuit of Dong Zhuo is risky, but there is also a big opportunity, if you can save the Son of Heaven, you can naturally get many benefits and prepare for the future.

Cao Cao nodded in agreement with Wang Shichong's opinion, "The soldiers are fast, Dong Zhuo is now the time to flee for his life, if we wait for the march to be slow, we will inevitably lose the best opportunity." ”

Since neither Cao Cao nor Wang Shichong agreed to rest, Liu Bei could only continue to urge his subordinates to continue the march.

The three coalition armies marched in the starry night, passing through a valley outside Michi County, the army had just marched halfway, and suddenly, countless ambushes appeared in the mountains on both sides, and the arrows rained straight at the three coalition troops, and the soldiers of the coalition army were not on guard, and the people who were shot turned over on their backs, and there were countless casualties.

"Oh no, I've been tricked." Cao Cao was taken aback, hurriedly turned his horse's head, and commanded the whole army: "All the troops listen to my orders and retreat quickly!" ”

"Where is Cao Apu?"

Countless Xiliang troops were killed on the grass on the left and right, and the leader wore a purple and gold crown, a golden lock chain armor, a red cloak, a red rabbit and a fierce horse in his crotch, and a halberd in his hand, which was Lu Bulu Fengxian.

Cao Cao saw that Lu Bu was killing him with an unstoppable momentum, and all those who blocked him were ghosts under his halberd, so he couldn't help but be shocked, and exclaimed bitterly: "My life is over!" ”
