It's almost noon! In Chang'an City, which lasted for five hours, the morale of Xiliang was becoming more and more low, and after suddenly discovering that the great Sima Li Dao, who was still personally supervising the army at the east gate, had also begun to withdraw from Chang'an, he was finally squeezed into the city by Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Ma Teng, Han Sui, four families totaling nearly 100,000 troops, and the fighting spirit was suddenly scattered, and it was difficult to escape the situation of defeat and retreat after all.

The four coalition forces that attacked the city, after controlling the chaos in the city a little, did not immediately take advantage of the good opportunity of the defeated troops of Xiliang to crowd at the east gate of Chang'an and want to flee again, but coincidentally drove to the old palace in the city. But after all, the luck was still defeated by the expected facts, the Son of Heaven and the ministers, when the four coalition forces easily attacked Chang'an, as Cao Cao had feared before, were robbed by the defeated and fleeing Xiliang army.

Originally, when he captured the west gate of Chang'an, Cao Cao did not think about dividing his troops to fight back at the east gate along the path when he came, after all, there were still more than 10,000 Xiliang troops led by his own general Xu Huang at the east gate.

But Cao Cao, who had made up his mind several times, was almost fundamentally injured by being ambushed by the ambush when he pursued Dong Zhuojun alone three years ago, and even had a criminal record that took his own life on the line. Although Yuan Shao had said before leaving that he would lead the matter this time, he didn't have to think about it, just Yuan Shao's temperament and open-mindedness, coupled with Yan Liang's guard in Tongguan, would never agree to let go of the opportunity to capture Chang'an and gain great fame, and divide troops to cooperate with Cao Cao to pursue the defeated army of Xiliang, who was already a turtle in the urn. At that time, Cao Cao could only hope for Qin Xu, who had defeated him several times, and this time he should not be cowardly.

But when I saw the empty Chang'an Palace, and the chaotic courtier's mansion, there was no one behind. The news that the Son of Heaven and his courtiers were kidnapped by the defeated army of Xiliang was confirmed, especially when Yuan Shao was persuaded by himself to use Yuan Shu's matter to send out to contact Yan Liang of Tongguan and terminate his plan to drag Qin Xu to death on the battlefield The cold color on Cao Cao's face was about to form ice slag.

"Mengde! How good is that! …… You have always been highly intelligent, Yuan really didn't expect that the defeat of these Xiliang thieves was a foregone conclusion. He even dared to rob the Son of Heaven, this ...... How good is that? "I can't say that Yuan Shao, who is already the lord of Hebei and the two states, is also panicked when he sees that he has lost the Son of Heaven this time. didn't care about Ma Teng, Han Sui and other Liangzhou generals, but he grabbed Cao Cao's sleeve robe without grace, and asked with an anxious face.

Yuan Shao was really panicked! At first, he was bent on fighting for the great reputation of rescuing the Son of Heaven, even though the strategists who came with the army were persuaded several times. If you want to take into account the Xiliang thief soldiers, you may jump over the wall in a hurry and do unspeakable things. was also not taken to heart by Yuan Shao, who was full of desire to recover Chang'an. In addition, Cao Cao suddenly said that Yuan Shu had a jade seal of the country, which made Yuan Shao's mind all focused on the artifact, and he was worried about whether his cousin would overtake him in the matter of competing with him because of this, and for the Son of Heaven in Chang'an City, his "enthusiasm" was really reduced a lot.

At this moment, seeing that he was indeed plundered by the defeated army of Xiliang as his own advisers and Cao Cao were worried, this time Yuan Shao calmed down rarely, and suddenly remembered his original intention of coming here. It is inevitable that there will be a little anxiety in my heart, if the Son of Heaven is not rescued. Isn't this going back and forth in vain?

"How is it good? At present, the east gate of Chang'an is broken by the hearts of the soldiers, and the defeated soldiers of Xiliang who are running for their lives are blocked. Only when we immediately send troops to the north and south gates to attack the defeated soldiers of Li Dao and Guo Yan and the two thieves can we rescue the Son of Heaven before Tongguan is broken by the two thieves! Cao Cao flicked the sleeves of his robe, dodged Yuan Shao's hand, and said with a cold face. Miscalculated, this time it was really miscalculated! Such an obvious flaw can still appear in his Cao Cao's hands? Cao Cao asked himself, maybe it was really after listening to Yuan Shao's desperate plan against Qin Xu, and the hesitation in his heart for a while led to the current situation. Although Lao Cao will not admit it anyway.

"Tongguan has fallen? Meng De said carefully! How is this possible? Although Yuan Shao did not find the Son of Heaven, he was anxious to run for nothing, but after listening to what Cao Cao said, he still retorted and said: "Tongguan is no less dangerous, it can be called a husband who is not open, and there is Yuan General Yan Liang to guard, including 10,000 elites, these wolves are rushing to the pigs, and the two thieves Li Guo who only care about fleeing for their lives are defeated in Xiliang, can they go down to Tongguan?" However, what Meng De said is also reasonable, at this moment, we will immediately divide our troops into two ways, and attack those defeated soldiers in Xiliang halfway, maybe there will really be some gains! ”

Among the four coalition armies that broke through Chang'an this time, Yuan Shao's Jizhou elite was the most, and Cao Cao's troops lent Qin Xu more than 10,000 newly subdued Xiliang troops, and the army ranked second. According to the "convention" fist-sized speech, seeing that Yuan Shao adopted Cao Cao's "suggestion", Ma Teng Han Sui had already shared the credit for breaking through Chang'an and saving King Qin, and he had no objections. At the moment, Yuan Shao set up the fan of the lord of the princes a few years ago, and ordered Gao Lansuo to lead the Jizhou soldiers to guard Luoyang, continue to exterminate the defeated troops of Xiliang blocking the east gate of Chang'an, and at the same time be responsible for clearing the remnants of the enemy to prevent the chaos in the city and injuring the people, and Yuan Shao thief personally led the army and Cao Cao led the headquarters of 10,000 soldiers each for the way, and took the cavalry out of the south gate to pursue the road, Ma Teng Han Sui took the cavalry of the headquarters to go all the way out of the north gate, and agreed to meet under the Tongguan, waiting for the opportunity to rescue the captive son of heaven Liu Xie and the ministers of the court, and take the opportunity to completely destroy the remaining troops of the two thieves.

Yuan Shao's distribution was actually a small calculation. Ma Teng Han Sui was originally because of the "uneven distribution of spoils" with the two thieves Li and Guo Yan, so he sent troops to attack Chang'an under the banner of rescuing the Son of Heaven under the provocation of anger, even if he met the Son of Heaven, it would definitely be harmless. But Cao Cao is different, Yuan Shao knows his friends in his youth too well, and he is extremely good at exploiting loopholes, although Yuan Shao has secretly concealed the frustration of his confidants and advisers, and made a deal with Cao Cao with the settlement of the Son of Heaven after rescuing the Son of Heaven. In exchange for Cao Cao's support in the matter of Yuan Shu. But this deal is a deal, but if the credit of King Qin's rescue is also snatched by Cao Cao, then his old Yuan will not only get a promise from Cao Cao that is not a promise. Nothing is gained from co-authoring, and a trip is made for nothing. Therefore, Yuan Shao made up his mind, no matter what, he must not let Cao Cao take half a step out of his sight. And the meaning of Cao Cao's arrangement for Yuan Shao is also clear, but Cao Cao has always been a pragmatist, and no one has to carry such a black pot at the moment. But sending Yuan Shao's army to death is definitely a good thing, and Cao Cao is also happy to get a strong reinforcement for nothing. After all, as long as the Son of Heaven is in hand, his ambition to serve the Son of Heaven and order him to be unsubordinate can have a chance to be successfully realized. This so-called first merit of saving the driver was just a gimmick at the time.

"My lord! The last will be damned! Failed the trust of the lord! It's really hard to get away with it! Please behead a certain man! Although Cao Cao and Yuan Shao and other four coalition forces have successfully occupied the Chang'an Palace, after all, the war to clear the defeated troops of Xiliang is still continuing, and 20,000 soldiers and horses of Cao Yuan's headquarters who are chasing and killing the defeated troops of Xiliang have been transferred. It is no longer harmful to the war that is about to end. But the four coalition forces are each drawing troops and horses. Preparing to follow Yuan Shao's previous arrangement, each out of the fixed gate, under the Tong Pass, together with the army of Yan Liang on the Guan, together with the two thieves of Li Dao and Guo Yan in front of the Tong Pass, a person who surprised Yuan Shao actually led more than 1,000 cavalry to help Yuan Shao leave Gao Lan to guard Chang'an, and killed the defeated soldiers of Xiliang who were congested at the east gate of Chang'an. rushed into Chang'an City, and saw Yuan Shao and the others Xiaoxiao was about to set off. He shouted in an almost miserable tone.

"You...... Yan Liang!? How did you end up here? What about Tongguan? What about a certain Tongguan! Yuan Shao almost stared at Yan Liang, who was covered in blood, with the eyes of a fairy, and was very surprised that his first general, who was not good at guarding Tongguan, actually appeared here. But subconsciously glanced at Cao Cao, who was also full of anger, and Yuan Shao then thought of what Cao Cao said just now that was refuted by himself, his face suddenly became extremely flushed, as if he was about to spurt blood, and asked in an almost hoarse angry voice.

"My lord! Weekend...... The last general lost Tongguan! At this time, Yan Liang still had the domineering look when he saw Cao Cao and the arrogance when facing Qin Xu, Yan Liang was covered in blood at this moment, and his usual swarthy face became extremely white, holding a long knife in his hand, kneeling on the ground, and said sadly: "The last general is really guilty and deserves death!" When the old thief Guo Yan came to the front of the pass, he thought that as long as he guarded the west gate of Tongguan, he would have no worries, but who would have expected that there was a small road directly under the pass above the Tongguan, and dozens of elites of the Xiliang army took the opportunity to sneak into Tongguan, first indulging the Xiliang auxiliaries who were suppressed by the last general to cause chaos in the pass, killing horses, and even taking advantage of the panic of the defenders, they secretly opened the gate and let tens of thousands of Xiliang defeated soldiers in. The defenders had no horses and defenseless, suffered heavy casualties, and were broken by the Guo Yan thief army and the Li Dao thief army who caught up. The last general had no words to see the lord again, and wanted to kill himself to apologize, but along the way, he heard that the scattered Xiliang defeated soldiers had words, and the lord and the traitor Li Dao stuck in the city, so he killed him back, but he could ...... Maybe this is also the plan of that Li Dao, at this time, the two thieves of Li Guo are afraid that they have gone east, and the lord ......"

"Good! Yan Liang! You're good! Yuan Shao listened to Yan Liang's self-defense, sat on the horse and pointed at Yan Liang's fingers and trembled involuntarily, his face that was still ruddy just now was already pale at this time, panting heavily, just repeating the previous words, unable to say anything else.

"General Yan, where is the Son of Heaven? Where is Qin Xu? Although the news that Yan Liang brought back was too shocking, not only Yuan Shao's headquarters soldiers were dumbfounded, but even Ma Teng Han Sui, who was about to pursue, stopped. Come on, people have escaped, there is no need to play! Cao Cao already had a bad premonition before, but this time he was the most calm. Pulling the horse forward a few steps, he helped Yuan Shao, who had already been said by Yan Liang, and staggered angrily and wanted to fall off the horse, and asked sharply.

"This ...... Where the Son of Heaven is, the last general has not seen and does not know, but Qin Xu had sent people to the pass to ask for help before, and wanted to enter the pass to rest, but ......" Yan Liang secretly glanced at Yuan Shao, whose face was like gold paper, his head hung lower, as if he had made up his mind, he took a sharp breath, and said loudly: "But at one time, taking care of the personal enmity with that Qin, he did not let him enter the customs, and he led only more than 10,000 troops, and against the tens of thousands of Xiliang cavalry left in Guo Yan and Li Wei, this time presumably, it must be ......."

"Big man!" Cao Cao held Yuan Shao with one hand, his brows were tightly wrinkled into a high and bulging big Sichuan character, his teeth were biting his lips stubbornly, and he let the blood beads gushing out from the lower lip of his teeth drip down, and he suddenly threw the horizontal sword in his hand that was about to give the order to march to the ground in front of tens of thousands of soldiers who were about to attack, and let out a rather unwilling heavy sigh, as if he had used all his strength to shout: "The Son of Heaven fell into the hands of thieves before, and it was we and other Hanchen who had no plan, and this time I made the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty be robbed and humiliated by the traitors again, The pillars of the Han Dynasty, the ministers and hundreds of officials, all of them have suffered in a row, that is, I have a deep admiration for Cao, this trip has made great contributions to the society of Xuzhou Thorn Shi Qin Xu, who is a hero at a young age, has no defeat in his life, has great merit in the country, and is a model for all ministers! He was even buried here because of the calculations of his allies! Great man! Zhong Ming! it hurts! What a heartache! You...... Belch!!! ”

"Meng Degong! Qin Mou has been so favored and admired by you, but I don't know that Qin Mou has such an image in Meng Degong's heart, ashamed, ashamed, admitted, acknowledged! But cursing people behind the scenes is not a good habit after all! Just as Cao Cao was full of melancholy, crying and shouting in front of the army, causing everyone's faces to be depressed, and there was no joy in the previous successful breakthrough of the city, which should have been the direction of the north gate of Chang'an, which should have been driven by Ma Teng Han Sui's troops out of the city to attack and pursue the defeated army of Li Dao Guo Yan, there was a sudden sound of dense horses' hooves. It almost caused a commotion among the soldiers of the four coalition forces who were getting ready to go, and the first horseman, it didn't just make Cao Cao cry, who was Qin Xu who died on the battlefield?

It's just that what is not very harmonious in the field is that the more than 100 cavalry behind Qin Xu are also wearing Xiliang army armor, but one by one they are mostly bearded, and there are even women and children!

And what surprised Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Ma Teng, and Han Sui even more was that on an extremely luxurious horse behind Qin Xu, who was strictly protected by Qin Xu and these people, the young man who was dressed in a tuanhua sleeve robe, accompanied by a young girl, and protected by his uncle Dong Cheng, was standing on top of the carriage with an excited face, why was he so familiar?

I'm going to go! It turned out to be ...... The Son of Heaven! (To be continued......)
