Chapter 84 Troops to Luoyang

At this time, Liu Zhi's army had already approached the Tiger Pass, and the number of the original Xiliang Army in the Tiger Pass was not very large, after Guo Yan's army was completely annihilated, the soldiers guarding the pass thought that it was difficult to resist the attack of the Runan army, so they hurriedly abandoned the pass and fled, so Liu Zhi would not blow the effort to take the Tiger Pass.

In the Tiger Prison Pass, Liu Zhi was discussing with several military advisors, and after the Yang Zhai War, Chen Gong was finally willing to submit to Liu Zhi, and Liu Zhi also worshiped him as a military advisor and participated in military and political affairs together.

"Ladies and gentlemen, right now that the Son of Heaven is trapped, hundreds of officials are in trouble, and Luoyang City is only a stone's throw away, should we go to meet them?"

Liu Zhi glanced at everyone and said slowly, he said this, in fact, he had already decided to welcome the Son of Heaven in his heart, and the reason why he asked like this was to see how many people thought the same as him, or whether there were different opinions.

"Lord, now is a great opportunity, the Son of Heaven is fleeing eastward, the Xiliang army is fighting separately, and there are not many troops around the Son of Heaven, if we send troops, we will get a good card, a good card that can command the world."

Cheng Yu is not a royalist, and his feelings for the Han Dynasty are not too deep, but he suggested to Liu Zhi from a strategic height, because he was afraid that everything was inconvenient to say clearly, so what he said was not very straightforward.

Liu Zhi looked at Guo Jia and saw that he bowed slightly, obviously following Yu Yu's point of view, so he asked Chen Gong, "What does Mr. Gongtai think?" ā€

Chen Gong got up and saluted Liu Zhi, and then said: "Lord, Chen Gong also agrees with Lord Cheng's opinion that the Son of Heaven must be controlled in his own hands. ā€

Somewhat unexpectedly, Chen Gong's words were so direct, even more direct than Cheng Yu, which he didn't expect.

"Oh? Mr. Gongtai, please keep talking! ā€

"Luoyang is more than 50 miles west of the Tiger Prison Pass, we are the closest one among the Kwantung princes, so it is not a question of whether to save or not, when to save the problem, the Han Dynasty lasted for more than 400 years, the clan power is all over the world, and the grace is even wider under the yellow sky, if the Son of Heaven has an accident under the nose of our Runan Army, then we are bound to become the object of the people's criticism, and the scholars and celebrities will also stay away from us, we will lose a lot of popular support, so we have to save."

"Secondly, I got the news that Cao Cao, who was in Jizhou, had sent his subordinate Cao Hong from Dongjun at this time, to the north to bypass the Tiger Prison Pass, cross the river and bypass Hanoi County, and will arrive in Luoyang in a few days, Cao Hong's purpose is very clear, that is, to pick up the Son of Heaven before us, I heard that Cao Cao recently accepted a genius, named Xun Yu, this person is extremely intelligent, this plan must be proposed by him to Cao Cao."

Chen Gong mentioned Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and Guo Jia both had a look of surprise in their eyes, but soon both of them returned to normal, and the relationship between the two and Xun Yu was already good, so they also knew Xun Yu's talent very well, but they had been away from Yingchuan for a long time, so they didn't know when Xun Yu went to Jizhou and defected to Cao Cao.

Liu Zhi nodded, in history, it was Xun Yu who made this suggestion to Cao Cao to blackmail the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and finally controlled the Son of Heaven in Xuchang, making the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty a pawn in the hands of Cao Cao.

In this way, they still have competitors, Cao Cao is not to be outdone, if Cao Cao takes the lead in this matter, it will be troublesome, so Liu Zhi immediately ordered: "Xu Chu, you immediately lead three thousand cavalry to Luoyang, remember, you don't enter the city, just guard the surroundings of Luoyang, don't let outsiders approach immediately, if you encounter Cao Cao's troops, you know what to do, remember, don't make too much movement!" ā€

Xu Chu took the order and left, and Liu Zhi said to everyone: "Everyone, come with me to Luoyang to meet the Son of Heaven and hundreds of officials!" ā€

Xu Chu's cavalry galloped all the way from the Tiger Prison Pass, and had arrived in Luoyang in less than an hour and a half.

The defenders of Luoyang City at this time only had more than 300 people from Yang Feng, and his troops had 3,000 people before, but because they were pursued by Xu Rong's cavalry, most of the soldiers either died in the chaos or fled in all directions, leaving only the more than 300 soldiers led by Xu Huang finally rushed back and joined everyone, and this army is currently the last army around the Son of Heaven.

Xu Chu's three thousand cavalry made a lot of noise, and the defenders in the distance saw the flying dust and the rumbling sound of horses' hooves, and the defenders were very nervous for a while, and many people even began to flee, they had fought with the cavalry of the Xiliang Army before, and knew the strength of the cavalry, and at this time they had already left a shadow in their hearts.

"General, these people are from the east, they shouldn't be from the Western Liang Army, right?"

Xu Huang said to Yang Feng with some doubts, Yang Feng was originally a Yellow Turban Army, because of his meritorious escort, and there were no available generals around the emperor at this time, although General Wei Dong Cheng was a foreign relative, but he had no military power, so he could only rely on Yang Feng, so Yang Feng was named the general of the chariot and cavalry, and led the three armies.

"Who among the Kwantung princes has such a strong cavalry? Isn't it Yuan Shao from Hebei or Gongsun Zan from Beiping? ā€

Yang Feng shook his head, the two of them were very far away from here, and they would not send troops so quickly, and who among the remaining Kwantung princes had such a powerful cavalry? He couldn't remember for a moment.

While Yang Feng was meditating, Xu Chu's men had already arrived, and a white-robed and silver-armored young general, Le Ma, stopped opposite Yang Feng and asked loudly, "Do you two know Yang Feng?" Tell him to come out to meet my general! ā€

Yang Feng was stunned, this person didn't look very old, but the tone of his speech was not small, although he didn't have many soldiers and horses, but he was also a chariot general appointed by the emperor himself, but this person dared to call him by his name, and he didn't respect him at all, Yang Feng was angry in his heart, and made a color to Xu Huang, Xu Huang understood.

pretended to tell the general Yang Feng's whereabouts, but in fact he was preparing to attack him.

This young general is none other than Zhang Ji's subordinate Zhang Xiu, after Zhang Ji surrendered, his army was split by Liu Zhi, he himself was left by Liu Zhi's side, named Reuse, in fact, for surveillance, and Zhang Xiu was arranged under Xu Chu's command, became a cavalry captain, commanding a thousand cavalry.

For Xu Huang's sneak attack Zhang Xiu is not defenseless, he has long noticed that this person is muscular, rough and cocooned, obviously a strong general, but Xu Huang's movements are very fast, walked to his side, shouted, actually led people and horses, lifted him up, and then threw it at a boulder in the distance, Zhang Xiu was taken aback, and used a little force on the horse's back, and he had landed safely, but his white horse chasing the wind was thrown on the boulder and died.
