In the wind and snow, on the gates of Chang'an City, a Wuzi golden dragon battle flag was hung, and these battle flags fluttering in the wind and snow represented that Chang'an changed hands again.

"It's only been peaceful for a long time, and there is another war, I thought that Wei was strong, but now even Great Wei can't keep us safe!"

"Isn't the country of Wu in the southeast? How did they get here? ”

"Is it true that Great Wei has been defeated? Could it be that the state of Wu has already ruled the world? ”

"Impossible!"

"I heard that even the Emperor of Wu has come in person this time, and Eastern Wu is going to the north to attack our Great Wei!"

The people of Chang'an City looked at the elite soldiers of the Wu Army trained in the streets and alleys, and began to discuss carefully among relatives and friends.

At noon, leaflets from Wu Jun's reassurance began to appear in the hands of the people of Chang'an.

"The chaos of the world, the people are miserable, years of war, the people are mostly suffering, the world is unified, there is a prosperous world, Cao Wei is corrupt, harsh government and heavy taxes, now the great Wu Xingyi division goes north, when overthrow Cao Wei, peace in the world, peace and ......!"

“…… Wu Jun is a righteous teacher, he does not deceive the people in the slightest, and does not damage the lives of the people......"

Although the leaflets are not enough to reassure the people, they can also stabilize the situation in Chang'an City to some extent.

The people are sometimes very simple and don't care about politics, they just want to know if the forces you enter the city will harm you.

With this peace of mind leaflet, many people will settle down, you beat yours, I live my life, after all, they are all Central Plains people, whoever is in charge is to live life, and it is not a foreigner who comes in.

"Xingba, there will definitely be a bloody battle in Chang'an City, if you can't do anything, you can give up Chang'an. Return to the Meridian Valley, use the Meridian Plank Road, and hold this road back to Hanzhong! ”

In the afternoon, the army of Wu's army, which had been resting for half a day in Chang'an City, began to set out of camp, and before leaving, Sun Quan instructed Gan Ning.

"Your Majesty. Gan would rather die, this retreat will never be lost! ”

Gan Ning said resolutely.

No matter what the battle of Luoyang was, Sun Quan now handed over this final retreat to himself, and Gan Ning's heart felt heavy, and he didn't dare to relax a little.

"Chang'an City is Wei land after all, although the Wei people's hearts are unstable, but they also have a few points, you must not only guard against external troubles, but also be careful about the stability of the city. When necessary, I will allow you to kill the hearts of the townspeople! ”

Sun Quanzai gave him a permission.

Wu Jun has strict laws, even if it is to attack Shu, it is absolutely not allowed to harm innocent people, this is the rule that Sun Quan set for Wu Jun.

The two armies are fighting, the people are innocent, Sun Quan is a person who pays attention to the people's hearts, but not now. Sometimes it takes thunder to suppress some people with different intentions.

"The last general understands!"

Gan Ning nodded and stood at the head of the city. Farewell to Sun Quan: "Your Majesty, you must be careful, the last general is here to wait for Your Majesty to break Luoyang, capture Emperor Wei, and return triumphantly!" ”

"Hahaha, I will win this battle!"

Departing from Chang'an. There is a big gallop road can go straight to Luoyang City, as long as the cavalry is on the spacious gallop road, the speed is like the wind, and it will not take two days, the main force of the Wu army has already crossed Huayin City. Enter Hongnong-gun.

Hongnong goes east to Luoyang City, as long as you enter Hongnong, Luoyang City is close at hand.

The wind and snow in the past two days were not heavy, but the snow of the previous days had caused a layer of snowflakes on the road of galloping, which greatly delayed the speed of the march.

"I'm about to enter Xingyang, I feel like I'm revisiting my old place!" During the march, Sun Quan raised his head and looked at Xingyang City, which was faintly about to appear in front of him, and the corners of his mouth slightly hooked up a playful smile.

"Back then, we fought side by side with Cao Cao in Xingyang, and I remember it vividly!" Sun Ce sighed a little.

"I also had a fight with you here!" Lu Bu said coldly and arrogantly: "I almost killed Cao Mengde back then, if you hadn't appeared, how could Cao Mengde be today!" ”

In Xingyang that year, Sun Ce and Sun Quan led the Jiangdong Army to reinforce Cao Cao, and had a good time with Lu Bu here, and Sun Quan also has a clear memory of that battle.

"His Majesty Emperor Wu's heart is really not small!"

Sima Lang's eyes were a little complicated, and the young monarch beside him said: "If you want to settle the battle in one battle, will it be too risky!" ”

He was forced to go north, he didn't want to die, you can listen to their orders, and he also wanted to get close to this young and powerful overlord today.

"Hahaha, my heart has always been not small, my heart is big, my appetite is big, I can swallow the world!"

When Sun Quan heard this, he whipped the lion dragon, rode his horse, smiled slightly, glanced at him, and said firmly: "What does Mr. Sima think of the outcome of this battle?" ”

Sima Lang is a talent, and Sun Quan plans to go to Jinling City later.

It's one thing to use it or not, it can't be left to Cao Wei, and his identity is very important for the future governance of Guanzhong, Sima Jia, that is the head snake of the ground.

If it was Sima Yi, he might not dare to use it, but Sima Lang, he might not dare to use it.

"Does His Majesty Emperor Wu think that this trip will have results?"

Sima Lang sneered and said sarcastically: "Luoyang City is located in the hinterland of the Great Wei, although the army is empty now, but even if you take Luoyang, so what, as long as our reinforcements come back, you won't be able to get out of Guanzhong!" ”

"Huh!"

Sun Quan looked at the snowstorm, smiled, and Shi Shiran said: "As long as Cao Mengde is in my hands, I don't need to go out, this level is already mine!" ”

"What kind of person is Your Majesty, how can it fall into your hands!"

When Sima Lang heard this, there was a slight contempt at the corner of his mouth: "His Majesty Emperor Wu is taking it for granted, be careful to leave your life in this pass!" ”

"Then let's see, which of us has a higher means!"

Sun Quan's expression was calm, and he smiled indifferently: "At this time, Cao Mengde should also get the news of Chang'an City, do you say that he chooses to escape from Luoyang, or defend Luoyang?" ”

"It's too late to know now, all the cavalry under the command of the Wu army are cavalry, the cavalry is like the wind, and Your Majesty is not stupid, don't you know what he will face once he leaves Luoyang at this time?"

Sima Lang's eyes were slightly worried, and he replied calmly: "Your Majesty, of course, is guarding Luoyang City at this time, and waiting for help!" ”

——————————————————

Shangyang Palace.

Before a belated blood letter appeared on Cao Cao's case, he was so angry that his whole body reversed. I almost couldn't stand on my feet, my eyes were full of stars, and my whole body was extremely cold.

This is Cao Xiu's blood book, the blood book is not important, what matters is the content of the blood book.

Yangping Pass is lost.

Tens of thousands of elite troops were wiped out overnight.

This will mean that the road to the north of Wu's army has been opened. And his heavy troops are still in Xiliang, and Guanzhong is not prepared at all.

"Thunder?"

Cao Cao looked at every word on Cao Xiu's blood book, looked at Jia Kui with a sinister gaze, and gritted his teeth and said: "What the hell is going on in this battle, let's make it clear!" ”

"Your Majesty, the Wu army used a terrible weapon, similar to the Heavenly Master Alliance's secret weapon, the Heavenly Thunder, this weapon is so terrifying that it broke the wall of Yangping Pass in a snap of a finger. Bombing the entire city wall into ruins, and directly entering the city pass, General Cao led the remnants of the army to fight endlessly, and now life and death are uncertain! ”

Jia Kui knelt in front of the hall and said with a cry: "General Cao knew that he could not break through, so he ordered the general to break through alone and return to Luoyang to report to His Majesty, but the Wu army has been cleaning up the fish that have slipped through the net. I had no choice but to escape into the mountains. Bypassing the mountain road, walking out of Hanzhong from the deep mountains and forests of the Qinling Mountains, Fang is now back in Luoyang! ”

"I ask you, how is Yangpingguan now?"

Cao Cao was furious.

"The last general didn't know that before breaking through, Cao Xiu was less than 10,000 remnants. has been besieged and killed by tens of thousands of elite iron cavalry of the Wu army, and there are many auspicious ones! Jia Kui said with tears in his eyes.

"My Thousand Miles of Horses?"

When Cao Cao heard this, his expression was sad and indignant, and he staggered to his position. Yang Tian shouted: "Sun Zhongmou, a certain and a certain are incompatible!" ”

"Your Majesty!"

At this time, the old eunuch Cao Leng walked in with light steps, and whispered in his ear: "Taiwei asks to see!" ”

"Biography!"

Cao Cao stabilized his spirit and called out faintly.

"Minister Xi Zhicai, knock to see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!" Xi Zhicai walked in and bowed.

"No need to be polite!"

Cao Cao gave him a hand, and then handed him the blood book in his hand: "I am looking for you and tell you bad news, Yangping Pass is lost, you must transfer troops back to Guanzhong to resist the Wu army!" ”

"Is that really the case, thunder? Does this have anything to do with Zhang Lu? ”

Xi Zhicai looked at the blood book, not surprised, but a little puzzled, and then he couldn't care about these things.

His face was solemn, and he directly arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen also has bad news to report to Your Majesty!" ”

"What's any bad news for you?"

Cao Cao's heart was cold, and his eyes seemed to be able to breathe fire.

"Your Majesty asked me to transfer troops back to Guanzhong to prevent the Wu army from going north, it was too late, two days ago, Sun Quan personally led nearly 100,000 elite cavalry to enter Guanzhong from the Meridian Road, it was just an hour to break through Chang'an City, and now the main force has gone north to Luoyang!"

Xi Zhicai knelt on his knees and reported word by word: "Sun Quan took Zhao Zilong as the vanguard and went north first, Zhao Zilong's vanguard army is already close to Gucheng, at most one day, the army can be under the city of Luoyang!" ”

Valley City is

"What?"

When Cao Cao heard this, it was like five thunderbolts, and the whole person was stunned, and his face showed a look of disbelief: "How is this possible, Wu Jun can't be fast here, impossible!" ”

"Your Majesty, this is true!" Xi Zhicai said heavily.

"Sun Zhongmou has a big appetite!"

Cao Cao's teeth were about to be crushed, and he said angrily: "Bashu is not stable yet, he actually went north, and went north in person, that is, he wants to swallow Dawei in one go, break the formation and be a general, and capture a thief to take the head, he wants to be beheaded!" ”

Beheading, beheading whom, is naturally the head of the Great Wei Dynasty, the head of his Cao Cao.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that's what he meant, Dongwu has unified the south, when today, only Your Majesty will contend with him Sun Zhongmou, as long as Your Majesty is killed, no one can stop Sun Zhongmou's footsteps!"

"He's delusional!"

"Your Majesty, you must not underestimate this force!"

Xi Zhicai said: "Sun Zhongmou personally killed in, and he was determined to win, and it was only when he killed under the city gate that we found out that he must have used a large-scale force to block the news!" ”

"Meet Jia Xu, the commander of the ghost pawns!"

Cao Cao only remembered the ghost pawn at this time, and shouted angrily, he was about to be killed under the city gate, and the ghost pawn actually had no news at all, which really disappointed him.

Jia Xu came quickly, and he happened to have something to tell Cao Cao. He had already received Cao Cao's summons at the gate of the palace.

"Minister Jia Xu, knock to see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!" Jia Xu walked in and hurriedly saluted.

"Jia Aiqing. What are you busy with these days? ”

Cao Cao's eyes were gloomy and his expression was cold.

"Tell Your Majesty, the minister is about to report to Your Majesty some of the achievements made by the ghost soldiers in Luoyang City these days!"

Jia Xu was a little surprised by Cao Cao's cold attitude, but he didn't care too much, he began to invite credit: "In the past few days, the ghost pawn has continuously found out that the Jinyi Guard has four strongholds in Luoyang, and has taken down a group of Jinyi elites who have been lurking in Luoyang for many years, among which several local heroes and powerhouses in Luoyang City are involved......"

"You take a look at this first!"

Cao Cao interrupted him coldly. smashed Cao Xiu's blood book to him.

"What is this?"

Jia Xu was confused, and hurriedly picked up the blood book, looked at it carefully, and suddenly his face changed greatly: "Your Majesty, how is this possible?" ”

"Commander Jia, this matter is absolutely true!"

Xi Zhicai patted him on the shoulder and smiled slightly bitterly, this Jia Xuke planted a big heel: "And it's not only that." Wu Jun followed Yangping Pass and had already taken Chang'an City. Now that they are approaching Luoyang, their vanguard army can be in the city for a day at most! ”

"Jia Xu, you come to tell me, what are your ghost pawns doing?"

Cao Cao's anger was out of control, and he picked up a teacup. smashed directly on Jia Xu's head, and said coldly: "Is it that when Luoyang City is breached, I will still be kept in the dark?" ”

"The minister is derelict in his duty, and he deserves death!"

Jia Xu trembled and crawled on His Royal Highness, not daring to raise his head. Practice and plead guilty.

He was ashamed in his heart, the Wu army was about to fight under the city, and he was still twisting that little profit, and the ghost soldiers didn't notice it at all, and it was really an unforgivable crime.

"Your Majesty, in fact, it's no wonder that Commander Jia, after all, the ghost pawn was uprooted at the entrance of the southwest hall because of Zhuge Liang's calculations, so there must be something wrong with the news network, and Commander Jia's recent thoughts have been on Xiliang, and all of them have ignored some clues, which is understandable!"

Xi Zhicai interceded for Jia Xu.

When Jia Xu heard Xi Zhicai's words, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and he crawled on the ground, but the thoughts in his mind were straightening out some clues, and suddenly, a terrible thought appeared in his heart.

It couldn't have been that coincidental.

If the actions of the past few days are all Jinyiwei calculating him, then there is a person's identity that is about to come out.

"Wenhe, you get up and speak!" When Cao Cao heard this, he suppressed his anger and looked at Jia Xu coldly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Jia Xu was sweating profusely in this winter.

"Now that Sun Quan is about to come to the city, and the Luoyang soldiers are about to be empty, how should I be?" After all, Cao Cao is a big hero, the overlord who has been killed from the battlefield many times, although the incident happened suddenly, but it did not disturb his heart, he still calmed down.

"Your Majesty, although the minister is angry, he has to admit that Sun Zhongmou is shrewd!"

Xi Zhicai said with a wry smile: "The timing he chose was too precise, now nine percent of our Great Wei garrisons in Guanzhong are in Liangzhou, and there are only about 10,000 Imperial Forest Army left in Luoyang City, so he was given the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, from Chang'an to Luoyang, such a long distance, there is actually no force to stop their march, the speed of the army is like the wind, and the main army will come to Luoyang City in a few days!" ”

"I understand the situation, and I want to know what we should do now?"

"Your Majesty now has two choices, retreat to Yuzhou, let General Xiahou lead the troops to converge, and retreat the Wu army together, and the other is to hold on and wait for help?" Jia Xu said.

"Zhicai, how do you think I should make a decision?"

"Your Majesty, admit that you should stand by and wait for help!"

Xi Zhicai suggested: "Behind the high walls of Luoyang City, if you want to break through, it is not so simple, once our soldiers will return, they can be surrounded and annihilated!" ”

"Encirclement and annihilation?"

Cao Cao's eyes lit up.

"The premise is that we can hold the sun!" Jia Xu added.

"What if you can't keep it?"

Cao Cao is not a person who does not know how to soldier, in today's situation, they do not have many troops, if they want to hold a small city, it is still possible, but if they want to hold such a large scale of Luoyang, it is not easy.

For a city of this size, there must be at least 30,000 troops to form a defensive line, and if he has 30,000 elites in his hands, he can use it as ten times the number of troops outside the city.

But 10,000 troops are too few, and even the defensive line cannot be fully arranged, and any of the seven city gates will collapse completely.

"Your Majesty, we have no choice!" Xi Zhicai said in a deep voice: "There is no time now, in a day, Zhao Zilong's vanguard cavalry will come to the city, they are all cavalry, we can't outrun them, with the city, we can still hold it, if they are blocked in the wild, we will definitely die!" ”

"If you hold on and wait for reinforcements, how long will it take?" Cao Cao asked through gritted teeth.

"The tiger and leopard ride is now in Bingzhou, and it has gone north to Yanmen, at the speed of heavy snow now, there is no ten days, and there is no way back!"

"What else?"

"General Xiahoudun's Jin Wuwei is in Yuzhou, this is the closest force to us, but most of them are foot soldiers, and it will take ten days and half a month to return to Luoyang!"

"Ten days?"

Cao Cao's eyes sharpened: "I'll fight with Sun Quan here in Luoyang City!" ”

"Your Majesty, Liangzhou has descended, and Weichen has a suggestion!" Jia Xu stood up and said in a low voice.

"Please Xiliang Tie ride south to Chang'an, Xiliang Tie Cai is very fast, it may be too late to return to Luoyang, but to Chang'an in the south, it is definitely too late, as long as Chang'an is taken, the road to Wuguan is blocked, and then General Xiahoudun guards Hangu Pass, he can cut off his Sun Zhongmou's return journey and leave him in Guanzhong completely!" Jia Xu said fiercely.

"Ma Chaoxin surrendered, can you believe it?"

"With Pound as the deputy general, you can balance him!" Xi Zhicai proposed.

"Good!"

Cao Cao walked resolutely, spread out a few black frames and white background silk books, wrote a few holy decrees, and then stamped a big seal and handed it to Jia Xu: "Wenhe, send these edicts of King Qin out as quickly as possible!" ”

"No!"

"Zhicai, the soldiers and horses in the city, at your disposal, including me, we will fight a bloody battle with Sun Zhongmou in this Luoyang City!"

Cao Cao said categorically.

"Your Majesty, the minister will never let Luoyang be attacked!"

Xi Zhicai said firmly. (To be continued.) )
