Just after the unitary hour, Liu Wei opened his eyes on the bed.

The first thing you see is the gauze tent on top of your head. The style is not ornate, and the simple white gauze curtain hangs from the roof in the shape of an awl. As the bedroom of the Son of Heaven, it looks a little shabby, which is related to Liu Wei's unluxurious personality all along.

Lying on the bed and watching quietly for a while, my mind fell into a meditative state. It wasn't until he reached out to grab the top of the tent that consciousness returned to his body. He thought that he couldn't reach the height of the tent.

Looking sideways, the other side of the bed was empty, and Queen Tang, who slept next to him last night, woke up early and got out of bed according to her usual habits.

Liu Wei got up and sat on the edge of the bed, and Empress Tang, who heard the movement in the house outside, pushed open the door and led the palace mermaids in, and after saluting Liu Bian, she commanded the palace people to wait for Liu Bian to wash and change clothes.

The habit of getting up earlier than Liu Wei and waiting for him to change clothes was developed by Empress Tang after she moved into Zhutao Yashe, although Zhutao Yashe was not as luxurious and majestic as the North Palace, but it did not have so many rules in the palace. In Empress Tang's heart, this place is more like the home she wants.

After dressing neatly, Liu Wei solemnly took Empress Tang's hand and walked out of Zhutao Yashe side by side with her.

At this time, the sky is getting white, the morning fog wraps the bamboo forest, and the car of Liu Wei and the Tang Empress walks through the bamboo forest, and the surrounding atmosphere is ethereal and solemn.

Walking out of the Maolong Garden, the Xiyuan Army, the Pingcheng Army, the Shenwei Eighth Battalion and the Silifu Army were already waiting outside. , the armies are neatly arrayed and imposing.

Liu Wei walked out of the car and stood on the car to scan the troops.

Tens of thousands of people are silent and ready to go.

At this time, there was no need for more words, Liu Wei drew his sword and shouted: "Today is a battle for the country, I will go out of the city with you, live and die together." Win! ”

"Victory!" A tsunami of cheers rang out in the queue.

The army rose up and walked along the street to the east gate, and people continued to join Liu Wei's team along the way, militiamen, students, and even ordinary young and strong people.

When Liu Wei's car stopped beside Ren Hongchang, Ren Hongchang raised his proud head on the side of the road. She was followed by a group of Hongdu Gate students.

completely expected what Liu Wei was going to say, Ren Hongchang spoke first: "Although we have no power to restrain the chicken, we have the heart to protect the family and defend the country. Even if you can't go out of the city to fight, you must go to the city to wave the flag and cheer for Your Majesty and boost morale. ”

Liu Wei was speechless, so he had to order Che Yu to continue to move forward. Ren Hongchang led people to follow behind the queue.

When I walked to the re-road between the North Palace and the South Palace, the court ministers headed by Lu Zhi were waiting there. Next to them were a group of palace people and Huangmen led by Wei Yi.

Liu Wei nodded to Lu Zhi, and then looked at Wei Yi with an inquiring gaze.

Wei Yi was wearing a suit of armor that he found out of nowhere, loosely on his body, and when he saw Liu Wen's questioning gaze, he immediately bowed down and replied: "When the minister was young, he was chivalrous and good at fencing, which can just help His Majesty go out of the city to kill the enemy." ”

Wei Yi said it easily, but Liu Wei was extremely moved. In the past few years since he met Wei Yi, he had never seen Wei Yi hold a sword.

The palace people behind Wei Yi, Huang Men, also shouted: "We are all willing to go out of the city and fight to the death for the country!" ”

Although the voice was not as neat as that of the army soldiers, the continuous participation of the soldiers and civilians in Luoyang along the way constantly moved Liu Wei, and his eyes were already red and his voice was choked at this time.

There was a sharp sound of horses' hooves, Liu Wei raised his head, and saw Jia Xu coming to him with a bumpy body on the horse, standing side by side with Wei Yi.

Liu Wei showed a surprised expression, he had originally ordered Jia Xu to wait in the secret passage.

"Your Majesty, it's too late!" came too quickly, Jia Xu said a little breathlessly on the horse.

"Wenhe, you ......" Liu Wei didn't expect that Jia Xu, who had always taken his life very seriously, would also appear here.

"Your Majesty, the minister Jia Xu was originally a thief to Li Dao and rebelled against the court. His Majesty does not condemn his ministers to death, but instead takes them as confidants and entrusts them with important tasks. Even in today's time of danger and fierceness, His Majesty will still care about the safety of his ministers. This kind of trust and kindness is difficult to repay the ministers, so they have to use this useless body to defend the city for His Majesty, even if they can only block the enemy soldiers one step to repay the emperor's favor. ”

When Jia Xu said this, his voice was already a little choked. Liu Wei heard that he was really emotional.

"Wenhe, why are you doing this?"

Jia Xu said with a straight face: "Although the minister is afraid of death, he is even more afraid of being nameless after death. Your Majesty treats his ministers so kindly, if the ministers are afraid of death and steal their lives, won't they be vain? Please allow your majesty to defend the city for the country, even if he dies in battle, he can leave a name after his death. ”

Liu Wei didn't expect Jia Xu to say such a thing, and Jia Xu's estrangement to himself was finally gone. It is not until today that the relationship between the two people has truly become "comrades" who share hardships and hardships for the same goal.

Liu Wei showed a happy smile and said loudly: "I am a big man, no one is timid and cowardly, and he will defend his family and the country today." ”

At this time, the team became bloated and huge, and they came to the Upper East Gate. Liu Xie was waiting there.

Liu Wei walked out and sighed.

He had already heard that Liu Xie refused to stay in Luoyang and did not leave, and when he saw him guarding in front of the Upper East Gate, his mind had already been understood.

The two looked at each other, and Liu Wei felt as if there was something in his heart that had to gush out. At this moment, he remembered the scene when the two of them supported each other in the mountains to tide over the difficulties.

Liu Wei laughed, and Liu Xie also laughed together. Liu Wei stretched out his hand to him, Liu Xie hesitated, but still shook it. Liu Wei pulled him into the car with all his might.

Lu Zhi opened his mouth, but finally didn't say anything. Liu Xie's car on the Son of Heaven is indeed unruly, especially Liu Xie's identity is still very sensitive. However, at this moment when the country is about to fall and unite to go to the national crisis, there is really nothing more to say.

"Your Majesty, my brother did not leave Luoyang in accordance with the edict, and I hope that Your Majesty will forgive your sins." In the car, Liu Xie whispered to Liu Wei.

Liu Wei shook his head with a smile and pointed to the city wall. Liu Xie saw that Empress Tang had stepped into the city at some point.

"I have a wife to accompany me, brothers fight side by side, even if I don't know life and death, I feel that life is fast!"

Liu Xie said heroically, Liu Xie's blood boiled, his fists clenched, and his eyes shimmered.

At this time, the army had already walked out of the city, Liu Wei took Liu Xie's hand, walked out of the car, stood on the car and looked at the black army outside the car, Liu Wei let out a loud roar: "The whole army, line up to meet the enemy!" ”

***********

Ten miles away from the east gate, and the state army camp.

Lu Fengxian, who is invincible in the world, rode a red rabbit horse and stood in front of the military formation. His elite divisions stood in formation, staring at each other.

A soldier came to Lu Bu's side and whispered something, and a mocking sneer appeared on Lu Bu's face.

The imperial army's army really abandoned the city defense and set up a military formation outside the Upper East Gate. According to reliable information, the little emperor Liu Wei was also in the army.

God help me! If he can break through the enemy formation and capture or kill the little emperor Liu Wei alive, it will be a battle in the real sense.

Although the intelligence also said that there were hundreds of thousands of defenders outside the Upper East Gate, the little emperor actually took the ordinary people with no military experience and the Yellow Gate as the forerunner, how could these ordinary people compare with the army, and a charge of the wolf cavalry in the state made it collapse, and when the time came, the rear army formation was chaotic and trampled on each other, and the little emperor was just asking for his own death.

Although I don't know which sour Confucian gave this idea to the little emperor, but he risked arrows and boosted morale? How can there be such a child's play in war! Lu Bu already had confidence in winning this war in his heart.

Chen Gong also heard the news that the imperial court generals lined up outside the east gate, and hurriedly ran to Lu Bu and suggested: "The imperial court will use heavy troops to the east gate, and the other city gates will inevitably be empty, and the general can divide his troops to attack the other city gates and take the opportunity to take Luoyang City." ”

Lu Bu had always been obedient to Chen Gong's ideas, but at this time, after listening to his plan, there was a hesitant look on his face.

There is no problem with Chen Gong's strategy, if he follows the plan, he will definitely be able to capture Luoyang. However, if the troops are divided, the little emperor in the army may concentrate his forces and break through. Although the capture of Luoyang City was brilliant, Luoyang City without the emperor was just a relatively strong city.

"Since the puppet emperor Liu Wei has made an appointment with me openly, I naturally want to fight to the death with him in a dignified manner. How can you sneak attack from behind and make the world laugh! Lu Bu shook his head and vetoed.

Chen Gong sighed helplessly. Lu Bu's thoughts are actually understood by him. With the successive military victories, Lü Bu's ambitions were also greatly expanded. In his heart, he was no longer satisfied with merging states and places, dissatisfied with being under Yuan Shao, but had the intention of seizing the world.

Yuan Shao supported Liu He as the emperor in Xindu, if Lu Bu could capture Luoyang and hold the little emperor Liu Wei in his hands, he would have the capital to fight against Yuan Shao. is also like Yuan Shao, who can coerce the Son of Heaven to command the world.

The state army is invincible in the world, and it is difficult to say that Lu Bu's decision is wrong. Seeing that Lu Bu, who was extremely self-confident, raised the Fang Tian Painting Halberd in his hand, and in the end, Chen Gong retreated to the side without a word.

"Send someone to the Xiongnu camp to give Hu Chuquan an order, ordering him to lead the army to guard the rear of our army, and attack and kill the puppet emperor Liu Wei with our army." Although he was already extremely contemptuous of the imperial army, Lu Bu could still reflect the caution of an excellent general in his military arrangement.

"The public station stays in the camp, everything is careful."

Although he rejected Chen Gong's plan, Lu Bu still respected him very much. After commanding him a few words, he then shouted to his subordinates who were already ready to go: "Sons, the enemy army is ahead, capture Luoyang City, and do not seal the sword for three days, everything you see is acceptable!" ”

"Whoa!" And the state army roared like thunder.

"Come with me!"

Lu Bu took the lead, with thousands of roars behind him, and thousands of horses galloping, like a mountain torrent and tsunami, sweeping everything straight to the east gate of Luoyang!
