It is said that Zhao Yue is pacing nervously in the palace hall, calmly and unhurriedly full of disguise, his angular handsome cheeks make it more and more obvious that he is a noble monarch, and his black eyes are full of energy, but he hides his inner thoughts deeply.

"Zhao Aiqing can sit down first, there is no need to worry." Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty seemed to think that Zhao Yue was only two or three years older than him, so there were some things that could be said, thinking that before Dong Zhuo and Wang Yun were in power, they were oppressed by age, so that Liu Xie did not dare to speak at will.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, it's just that the minister doesn't dare to relax his carelessness." Zhao Yue politely refused, and her heart was really anxious.

This time, the 100,000 horses he brought with him may only be 50,000 or 60,000 when attacking the city, and Zhang Duan's troops are at least about 30,000, not to mention whether he can have an advantage when the two sides suddenly turn against each other and turn against each other, or when Zhang Duan takes the initiative to destroy the alliance and launch an attack.

Even if he finally sacrificed his life and defeated Zhang Duan, his army was only about 30,000 left, at that time, if Li Dao and Guo Yan in the northwest suddenly reconciled and led a large army to come, how would he be good?

The most important thing is that the 100,000 horses sent to Hongnong this time are almost all the belongings of the new Qin army that he has not yet developed and grown, that is to say, the current Luoyang is comparable to an empty city, and there is no general to defend it, if Wang Kuang, Zhang Yan and others in Hebei have any attempts, it is also a disadvantage of thorns in the back!

It was difficult to choose between advance and retreat, Zhao Yue's palms were full of sweat, and he paced again, he became more and more uneasy, and even asked for a set of armor worn by the general from the personal guard, personally draped it on his body, and put a pair of copper helmets on his head.

After the equipment stopped, he looked at the bronze mirror, showing the demeanor of a military general, but he was not confident.

This is one of the few times Zhao Yue has worn armor, since he came down from Songshan before, he has always been wearing a wide robe, at this moment, he really has to face the reality: this is a very urgent moment!

"Qin Feng is responsible for guarding the palace, Meng Idiot and Wang Jian are controlling the key places in the city, Cao Ping will be there in a while, why is there always not enough manpower......" Zhao Yue kept thinking, at this moment, who can help him, suddenly, he hammered the palm of his hand with his fist, and shouted: "How did I forget him, if he helps, even if he is seriously injured and unable to go into battle, it is also a deterrent!" ”

After a while, Cao Ping led the army to the palace, and Qin Feng greeted him and immediately put him in. Cao Ping drove all the way in, took Ding Guan, explained the current situation to Zhao Yueyu, and did not dare to go to Hongnong City to pick up officials above the third rank in the DPRK.

Zhao Yue waited for Qin Feng to go away, and looked at the moon in the sky, which was already getting more and more eastward, and a few thin clouds covered the originally bright moonlight. He turned around, walked to the hall, knelt down facing Emperor Han Xian, and said: "Shengshang, the minister has something to leave the palace for a while, and I hope that the saint will cherish himself and not live up to the loyalty of the minister." ”

Emperor Han Xian blinked, and couldn't help but open his mouth, looking like he wanted to yawn, but he didn't do that, because it was about the etiquette of the royal family, "Zhao Aiqing, go early and return early, I will wait for you to bring back good news." ”

When Zhao Yue heard this, she hurriedly thanked her, and then turned around and walked out of the hall, not daring to delay for a moment.

Zhongchang Bai Ying consulted Emperor Han Xian's meaning with his eyes, and after getting the emperor's permission, he quickly caught up with Zhao Yue, who had already stepped out of the palace, "Zhao Taishou, your eyes are already bloodshot, if there is something, if it doesn't matter, it's better to wait until tomorrow to ......."

Before Bai Ying's words could be said, Zhao Yue interrupted him with a smile: "Lord Bai, at this moment, everything Zhao Yue does is important, I hope Lord Bai can be considerate and take care of the Holy Lord." ”

After saying that, Zhao Yue stepped into the night without looking back.

If he remembered correctly, according to the news from his soldiers, Lu Bu had been imprisoned in a cell a little east of the middle of the city, at this time he was seriously injured, but he should not die, Zhao Yue wanted to go there to see if he could persuade Lu Bu to serve him, in that case, in a short time, Zhang Duan was afraid of Lu Bu's existence, and he should also have some concerns.

Zhang Duan, he listened to Gao Shun's advice, and at this time, he was leaning on the gate of Wang Yun's mansion to take a nap, and the soldiers who searched everywhere in the mansion were relaxed. Gao Shun left Wang Yun's mansion and went all the way to Yamen, and just arrived at a street not far from Yamen, he ran into Jia Xu.

"Lord Jia Xu, please don't get me wrong, I have already submitted to General Wumo, and General Wumo sent me here this time to support your occupation of the yamen." Gao Shun saw that the soldiers under Jia Xu were all fighting with open fire, and he was worried that they would misunderstand, so he hurriedly stepped forward to explain alone.

Jia Xu nodded slightly, and said: "I saw you coming, I guessed that this was the case, at this time the yamen has been occupied by Zhao Yue's general Wang Qian, I am afraid that we will not be able to occupy it easily, what about Lord Zhang Duan?" ”

"General Wumo is still resting in Wang Yun's mansion, after Wang Yun's mansion was breached, Wang Yun's whereabouts are unknown, and the soldiers are still searching the mansion." Gao Shun said nervously, after he finished speaking, he looked around vigilantly, and a few drops of sweat oozed from his head, as if he was affected by the tense atmosphere that permeated Hongnong City.

After listening to this, Jia Xu frowned slightly, he never thought that at this time, Zhang Duan would still have the heart to sleep......

"Now Wang Yun's life or death no longer matters, the only two forces that dominate Hongnong City are General Zhang Duan and Zhao Yue, I continue to wait here, you quickly go and invite General Zhang Duan to come here, only by taking this place can you prepare for the occupation of the palace." If my expectations are correct, Zhao Yue should have entered the palace by now, and I don't know if I can see the emperor. ”

Jia Xu stroked his beard under the flickering flames, his face full of worry, he was thinking, thinking about how he could take advantage of the chaos.

Gao Shun heard Jia Xu's words, and without thinking, he led his troops back to Wang Yun's mansion.

At the same time, in the night, another army also rushed towards Wang Yun's mansion, the main general was Meng Idiot, Meng Idiot came to Wang Yun's Mansion this time, and the number of troops led by Meng Idiot had reached nearly 10,000. He knew that if Zhang Duan didn't leave, then Zhang Duan's main force must also be in Wang Yunfu, and he came here this time, so he could only bring more people and horses, just in case.

In the dark night, Hongnong City seems to be a gloomy area, and the two soul envoys from the east and the west lead all kinds of soldiers who look like lonely ghosts and ghosts to shuttle between the gloomy streets and houses. In Hongnong, the people in the houses did not dare to light the lamp, let alone make a sound.

If you are a little brave enough to light a faint copper lamp, it will look particularly dazzling in the dark environment, but as soon as a soldier passes by this house, the room will instantly become pitch black, and the eerie scene makes people feel as if they are in a ghost town.

Tonight, Hongnong City is destined not to be calm, the forces of all parties are surging, and heroes, generals, and strategists from all walks of life will launch fierce duels and confrontations. (To be continued.) )
