Chapter 946: Luoyang Rebellion (7)

Dong Zhuo in order to fight against the power of the Kwantung family, and at the same time consolidate and strengthen his own strength. Preparing to move the capital to Chang'an was the last straw that crushed the balance that all the people were trying to maintain!

Since that year, Liu Xiu seized the throne with the help of the power of the gate lord of the Kwantung family, moved the capital from Chang'an to Luoyang City, and founded the Eastern Han Dynasty. Luoyang City has become the base camp of the Guandong Gate lords. For two hundred years, they had the absolute upper hand in the battle with the Guanlong nobles of Chang'an.

And Dong Zhuo's attempt to forcibly move the capital to Chang'an completely pushed him to the opposite side of everyone. Almost all the people of Luoyang hate him for not dying!

On the original historical trajectory, Dong Zhuo held a heavy army and threatened with force, forcibly relocated the entire Luoyang City.

At that time, the Kwantung Coalition Army, which had hundreds of thousands of troops, watched coldly not far away, without the slightest intention of obstruction.

And this time, the long river of history has gradually shifted from the original direction.

Gao Yang has more than 20,000 elite soldiers in his hands at this moment. Most of these people were the elite Central Army that had been forcibly disbanded by Dong Zhuo before.

Historically, these people had no organization, no weapons, armor, and no food. can only passively take his family to embark on the road of migration under the threat of knives and guns. In the end, the vast majority of the Empire's elite were left behind. Such an elite division was wasted in vain.

And this time, it's different.

These people were now assembled, with weapons, armor, and food. What's more, they have a commanding commander with a great reputation!

In the hot-blooded and martial Han Dynasty, these soldiers who were in Luoyang City also had the heart to forcibly resist Dong Zhuo!

At this time, the family gate lords headed by Wang Yun. still used his main energy on the Kwantung Coalition Army and Duan Xuan and others. Even if they want to use force, they believe in these people even more.

It's just that which one of the princes is a fuel-efficient lamp? They won't do anything to help someone for nothing. Moreover, if Dong Zhuo's action is really successful, it will be a great thing for the princes.

Although they are only spokespersons and CEOs, who doesn't want to be their own boss? Now that there is a great opportunity in front of us, who will help at this time? They also wished that Dong Zhuo would give Luoyang City a pot.

What's more, Dong Zhuo is not a rabbit! He still has more than 200,000 soldiers and horses in his hands at the moment! If there are fewer people, it will be given for nothing. If there are a lot of people, there are really few people who want to go. Under such circumstances, hundreds of thousands of Kwantung coalition troops were stationed in the Tiger Pass. Watching the wind and clouds in Luoyang City with cold eyes.

As for the other expectation of the family gate valves, Duan Xuan, who has a heavy army. It is even more difficult to move him than to move the Kwantung Coalition Army.

The reason is very simple, Duan Xuan belongs to the nobles of Guanlong! Even if he was dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo in his heart, it was impossible for him to take the initiative to jump out for the benefit of the Kanto family to oppose Dong Zhuo, who represented the interests of the Guanlong aristocracy! Being able to help each other is already the limit of what he can do.

In the original history, the family lords who lost all external support in a short period of time had to accept Dong Zhuo's relocation of the capital. But at this time, he has another card in his hand!

Duan Xuan's immobility was actually a gesture of support. In addition, Xu Rong and Lu Bu are also masters of preserving their strength. Most of the leaders of the other Xiliang armies were stationed outside Luoyang City, and the essence of these people had already been seen through by the elites of the shrewd family lords. They're just a bunch of mothers with milk.

As long as you can get rid of Dong Zhuo, the leader of the Xiliang Army. In the battle that has just been defeated, the army is not afraid, and the internal situation is unknown. There are still hundreds of thousands of Kwantung coalition troops outside. The greatest possibility for the leaders of the Xiliang army was to flee immediately with their soldiers and horses and the looted goods during this time.

By the time they can really react, the big picture is decided.

The real trouble is only the pro-army Flying Bear Army around Dong Zhuo. As long as this army can be leveled and Dong Zhuo killed, it can be said that it is a great success. This rare opportunity made the representatives of the interests of the Kanto gate lords led by Wang Yun excited.

Historically, they have no soldiers and horses in their hands who can make things happen. can only watch Luoyang City be destroyed in one fell swoop. However, now with Gao Yang's joining, they are determined to take risks and launch a fatal blow to Dong Zhuo! Keeping Luoyang City is for them. Above all else.

After all, once Luoyang was lost, the capital was moved to Chang'an City. That blow to the Kanto family gate valve can be called devastating. In order to protect their rights and interests, they are determined to take a chance.

If you want to kill Dong Zhuo, it is impossible to do it when you are surrounded by a large army. It is also impossible for Gao Yang to risk his life to play assassination in this situation. Then Dong Zhuo needs to be introduced into the trap. And where else can the most advantageous ambush position compare with the Imperial Palace?

Dong Zhuo, who was full of anger, didn't know that he was being secretly calculated. Dong Zhuo, who returned to Luoyang City in anger, immediately began to prepare for the forced relocation of the capital. After all, the Kwantung coalition army was already not far from Luoyang City.

A large number of sergeants of the Xiliang Army, especially Dong Zhuo's pro-army, began to wantonly loot people's property, kill people and set fires. And Dong Zhuo killed many court ministers who dissuaded him from moving the capital one after another, and unknowingly pushed himself completely against everyone.

There are more and more forces willing to start up with Wang Yun. These forces may not have many soldiers and horses in their hands, but don't underestimate the local snakes. The major forces that have been entrenched in Luoyang City for many years have a very huge strength!

After spending a day in Xiangguo's mansion, Dong Zhuo, who felt deeply in danger, rushed to the palace on the night of the second day after returning to Luoyang City to 'persuade' Emperor Liu of the Han Dynasty to move the capital. In this era, the emperor's will still have some effect, at least for the common people. What's more, the emperor's will is a righteous name!

At this time, Luoyang City was in chaos, fires broke out in many places, and the sound of screams and wails was endless. The streets are littered with corpses lying on the ground, stained with blood stains that stain the thousand-year-old capital.

A group of Xiliang cavalry, which had long lost its formation, galloped through the streets and alleys, wielding the ring-headed sword in their hands wantonly. Their horses carried a large amount of bloodstained goods, and their treatment of the people was no less ferocious than that of the steppe wolf tribe.

The bright moon hung high in the sky, and the cold moonlight spread on this ancient land, indifferently looking at the city that was gradually sinking into madness

Horses' hooves thundered, and a large army marched slowly through the ancient city. The wanton plundering Xiliang soldiers and horses could feel the huge momentum emanating from this army from a distance, and they didn't dare to approach at all.

"Sangkoku-sama." With a look of worry that could not be concealed, Li Ru, whose eyes flickered, approached Dong Zhuo's carriage and shouted softly.

"Squeak~~~" The beautifully carved window on the carriage was pushed open, and a strong smell of wine suddenly came out, making Li Ru next to the window suddenly frown, and almost raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose. It's just that he remembered that Dong Zhuo was brutal by nature, and if he really covered his nose, he was afraid that he would be unlucky, especially when Dong Zhuo was drunk. I had to endure it.

"What's the matter?" With a wine burp, the drunken Dong Zhuo poked out half of his head and asked in a slurred whisper.

This defeat hit Dong Zhuo very hard. Not only was he defeated on the battlefield, but more importantly, he suddenly realized that after he became the world-famous Xiangguo of the Han Empire, his control over his Xiliang Army was greatly reduced!

Those military leaders actually dared to unite to force the palace against him!

Although the excuses and justifications were very well found. What is far away from the land of Guanlong all the year round, and the sergeants have no intention of fighting. What is better than field battles, the unparalleled Xiliang Army dismounted and became a foot pawn, and it was really unwise to fight with those cannon fodder of the Kwantung Coalition Army. And so on and so forth.

The reasons are all false, and the real meaning is that he, Dong Zhuo, has gradually lost control of the Xiliang Army!

No one listened to his orders. Dong Zhuo, who felt a major blow, chose to use alcohol to kill his sorrows. No way, there is nothing else in this era that can anesthetize his nerves.

Dong Zhuo, who was devastated, could only choose to temporarily give up the grand plan and hegemony in his heart, give up the Tiger Prison Pass gloomily, and return to Luoyang City to prepare to move the capital back to Guanlong.

Because he knows that the capital for his real life is still this Xiliang army! And not the Xiangguo of the Han court!

"Sangkoku-sama." After the ugly Li Ru saluted respectfully, he glanced at the long queue of guards, and said in a deep voice, "At this moment, the ground in Luoyang City is not quiet, and there are too few guards around Lord Xiangguo. ”

Out of punishment for those military leaders who disobeyed his orders, Dong Zhuo did not let the soldiers and horses of those military leaders enter the city. At this moment, in the huge Luoyang City, in addition to Dong Zhuo's pro-army and Niu Fu's soldiers and horses, only Dong Yue and Duan Xuan's troops who were originally stationed in Luoyang remained. and the Gaoyang Department that returned ahead of schedule and the Bingzhou wolf cavalry under Lu Bu.

The total number of these soldiers and horses is 70,000 or 80,000. At least in Dong Zhuo's heart, the strength to protect himself is enough.

Dong Zhuo didn't know that those Kwantung family lords with Luoyang City as the core were eager to eat his flesh and skin him. It's just that Dong Zhuo firmly believes that although the strength of those gate lords is not weak, they are not a fart at all in front of tens of thousands of strong soldiers. He was reassured of his safety.

"Hmm." Although he was already drunk, Dong Zhuo still maintained three points of sobriety, and he understood what Li Ru meant. Shaking his head, he said in a low voice, "I have already ordered someone to recruit Fengxian and Zihou to lead the troops to come to protect them, Wen You doesn't need to worry too much." ”

"But" When Li Ru, who was frowning, wanted to say something, Dong Zhuo had already closed the car and boat with a 'bump'! (To be continued......)
