Chapter 498: The Luoyang Rebellion II
After receiving Wang Yun's urgent order, Min Gong left half of his soldiers and horses to guard the Nine Gates, and he led the other half of his soldiers and horses to rush to the Forbidden Palace. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
But at this time, the 20,000 Liangzhou troops stationed in Dongxiao had already killed under the city of Luoyang, and what was even worse was that Min Gong only defeated the chaotic army, and the defeated rebel army did not die down, but was divided into dozens of shares of different sizes, and began to burn and loot in the city in a more frantic way.
The Henan soldiers guarding Luoyang were already insufficient, and they had to divide their troops to resist the nine gates, and they had to beware of the rebellious army launching a sneak attack from the city.
The Liangzhou army of more than 20,000 horsemen came with a grudge, and they only had one crazy thought in their minds, that is, to kill and kill, and to wash Luoyang in blood, and leave no chickens and dogs!! From the moment the city gate was breached, no matter whether it was a rebel army or a defender, whether it was an innocent civilian or a mob, regardless of men, women and children, regardless of soldiers and clusters of civilians, regardless of people and animals, as long as they could move and breathe, they would all be killed!
The red-eyed Liangzhou army not only killed people and robbed things, but also began to frantically set fire to the whole city, and the twelve generations of emperors before and after the Eastern Han Dynasty, the prosperous eastern capital that had been operating for more than 200 years, were suddenly destroyed! And the initiator of this catastrophe, when Situ Wang Yun of the court, was in the forbidden palace with Cai Yong, Yang Biao, Lu Yu and other colleagues in panic.
The main gate of the forbidden palace has been destroyed, Dong play's three thousand tiger and wolf iron cavalry is wave after wave, launching an endless onslaught, the living Henan soldiers are becoming fewer and fewer, even the brave and unparalleled Lu Bu has been killed by several arrows and slightly injured, if there is no reinforcements coming, it is only a matter of time before the forbidden palace is captured.
。。。。。。
Luoyang, Deyang Palace.
The nine-year-old Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty was accompanied by eunuchs, although he was the son of today, in fact, he was just a child, in his young and pale mind, there was no concept of family and country responsibility, and the Empress Dowager He and a group of concubines shrunk in a corner of the Golden Palace and wept.
Wang Yun, Yang Biao and other ministers stood in the hall, their eyes were like ashes, and the situation had evolved to such a point that it was completely beyond the expectations of Wang Yun and others. Wang Yunping has always been conceited and wise, but at this time, he is also at a loss and has nothing to do, and the only thing left in his heart is to hope that the Eighteenth Route Kwantung Army can quickly kill Luoyang and end this catastrophe.
However, can the Eighteenth Route Kwantung Army really be able to kill Luoyang in time?
"Pedal Pedal ~"
Heavy and hurried footsteps sounded, the figure outside the hall flashed, Lu Bu's majestic figure had already entered highly, and the eyes of Emperor Han Xian and the ministers suddenly gathered on Lu Bu, but saw that Lu Bu's face was covered with blood, and his robe was also covered with red blood, some of his own, and more of them were the soldiers of the Liangzhou army.
Lu Bu also had two wolf tooth arrows stuck in his shoulder blades, and the feathers at the end of the arrows were trembling slightly.
Lu Bu's chest is rising and falling violently, and being able to tire Lu Bu, who is brave and champion of the three armies, into such a way is enough to show how fierce the attack of the Liangzhou soldiers on the Forbidden Palace is.
"Boom!"
Lu Bu slammed Fang Tian's halberd to the Golden Palace, raised his head to meet the dull eyes of Wang Yun and the others, and shouted: "The Liangzhou army is attacking fiercely, Lord Min Gong's Henan soldiers will soon be unable to support it, the military situation is urgent, you can quickly protect the Son of Heaven, and then the general will break out of the encirclement." ”
"What about the Kwantung Army?" Wang Yun's eyes flashed with the last trace of hope, "Isn't there any news from the Kwantung Army yet?" ”
Lu Bu shook his head gloomily and said, "No." ”
"Alas~~" Wang Yun let out a long sigh and said with a wry smile, "Right now, Luoyang City is full of Liangzhou bandits, where should I break through?" ”
"Your Excellency, rest assured." Lu Bu once again shook the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand, and said sharply, "But if there is an end general, we will never let the Liangzhou thieves hurt Your Majesty at all!" ”
"General~~ General!"
Lu Bu's voice fell, and Cheng Lian's long howl suddenly sounded outside the Golden Palace.
Hearing Cheng Lian's long howl, Lu Bu couldn't help but sink his heart, Cheng Lian and Song Xian were left by Lu Bu in the gate of the Forbidden Palace to assist Min Gong to resist the attack of the Liangzhou rebels, and suddenly appeared outside the Golden Palace at this time and spoke in a hurry, could it be that the main gate of the Forbidden Palace has been captured by the Liangzhou rebels?
In less than a moment, Cheng Lian's majestic figure appeared outside the Golden Palace.
"Cheng Lian." Lu Bu shouted, "Has the main gate been breached?" ”
"Uh, the front door?" Cheng Lian was stunned when he heard this, and then shook his head and said, "Not yet." ”
"Then what are you doing in Deyang Palace?" Lu Bu shouted, "Leaving his post so without permission, aren't you afraid of ruthless military law?" ”
"Nope." Cheng Lian said hurriedly, "It's Zhang Liao, General Zhang Liao has led the army back to kill!" ”
"Huh?" Lu Bu's eyes sank, and he shouted, "What did you say?" Zhang Liao! ”
"Yes!" Cheng Lian shouted, "Zhang Liao is back, and he has taken 10,000 recruits to the outside of the forbidden palace, and he is fighting with the Liangzhou rebels outside the palace." ”
"Whew~~"
As brave as Lu Bu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard the news, with Zhang Liao's 10,000 recruits, even if he couldn't save the chaos in Luoyang City, he could at least hold the forbidden palace, and the next moment, a sharp pain hit his shoulder blades, Lu Bu suddenly frowned, and snorted heavily.
"Hahaha~~" Wang Yun suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, laughing at the old man with tears flowing down his face, crying, "The sky will not die my big man, the sky will not die my big man, woo woo~~"
"There is salvation, Your Majesty is saved."
Yang Biao, Cai Yong and others also celebrated one after another.
。。。。。。
Outside the Deyang Palace.
Zhang Liao's 10,000 recruits arrived in time at the most critical moment of the situation, and without any hesitation, they launched a fierce attack on the Liangzhou army outside the palace.
Although Zhang Liao, the commander of the 10,000 new soldiers, is young, he can be regarded as experienced in a hundred battles, Zhang Liao is already strong in martial arts, and he has been personally guided by Lu Bu, which has benefited the young general a lot. With the entry of martial arts, Zhang Liao's ability to command troops gradually began to emerge.
And Dong Wan, the nominal commander of the Liangzhou Army, is just a pro-soldier captain, how can he be compared with Zhang Liao?
Soon, Zhang Liao keenly discovered that the command of the Liangzhou army was chaotic and fighting separately, and there was no coordination between the various arms, and Min Gong was able to hold the main gate of the Forbidden Palace for half a day, not because the Henan soldiers were so elite, but because the Liangzhou army lacked effective command. If the commander of the army with experience in battle formations is changed to the future, I am afraid that in less than half an hour, the Liangzhou army will already attack the Forbidden Palace.
After discovering the weakness of the Liangzhou army, Zhang Liao immediately transferred troops to punish the generals, first divided the Liangzhou rebel army with cavalry, and then formed a siege with hoplites, and finally shot them one by one with archers, less than half an hour, more than 6,000 Liangzhou rebel troops in front of the main gate of the forbidden palace have been wiped out by Zhang Liao's army.
Zhang Liao's timely arrival saved the forbidden palace, but still failed to keep the bustling market outside the forbidden palace, nearly 20,000 Liangzhou rebels were like a swarm of locusts raging everywhere in Luoyang City, killing people when they saw them, robbing beautiful women and valuable goods when they saw them, and setting fire to houses when they saw them.
However, the good fortune of the 20,000 Liangzhou rebels was no more, and the raging fire in Luoyang City would soon become the last and most brilliant fireworks in their lives, because the vanguard light cavalry led by Yuan Shao and other princes of the eighteen towns had already arrived and surrounded Luoyang City.
Facts have proved that Li Ru's speculation is correct, and killing back to Luoyang Xingshi to take revenge can only be self-defeating.
。。。。。。
Hanoi County.
Guo Yan's big tent in the army.
After listening to the narration of Li Ru's personal soldiers, Guo Yan jumped up in surprise and said in a mouthful of words: "What did you say!?" The lord is he~~ He has been killed? ”
The soldier nodded gloomily.
Guo Yan asked anxiously: "What about the military advisor?" Where is the advisor now? ”
The soldier said: "The military division has already rushed to Hangu Pass first. ”
"What about the 20,000 troops stationed in Luoyang Dongxiao, as well as the lord's 3,000 tiger horses?"
"They all went back to attack Luoyang."
"Huh? Attack Luoyang back! Guo Yan said in a speech, "Why didn't the military advisor stop them?" ”
The soldier said: "Dong Play didn't listen to the advice of the military advisor at all, and insisted on attacking Luoyang." ”
"Alas~~" Guo Yan sighed and said gloomily, "The more than 20,000 troops are over." ”
Guo Yan's voice fell, and the two generals in front of the tent asked, "General, what should we do?" ”
"What to do? What else can I do! A sneer suddenly bloomed at the corner of Guo Yan's mouth, and he said in a cruel voice, "Tell the brothers, burn, kill, and rob as much as you want!" Burn down all the houses, kill all but the young women, all men, women, and children, and rob all the gold, silver, and softness! What our Liangzhou Army can't get, the Kwantung Army can't even imagine. ”
"Yes!"
The two generals agreed with a bang and took the order.
