Chapter 192: Liu Biao's poisonous plan
In the Luoyang Palace, Li Ru stood anxiously in the imperial study and waited for Liu Yan's arrival.
"Li Aiqing, what's wrong?" Liu Yan suddenly appeared in front of the door, frowned and asked.
After ascending the throne for so many days, Liu Yan's prestige is obviously good, and Li Ru's sudden request to see him also made Liu Yan feel unhappy.
Li Ru took a deep breath, faced Liu Yan's indifferent words, and tried his best to calm down some dissatisfaction in his heart.
"Your Majesty, Liu Biao is here!"
Li Ru's face instantly became unusually calm.
"What?" Liu Yan was shocked when he heard this, and the sense of nobility he deliberately made suddenly disappeared, and he lost his voice.
"Li Situ, is this true?"
Li Ru nodded, the expression on his face was still so ancient, but countless thoughts had already changed in his heart.
As the former chief think tank of Dong Zhuo, Li Ru's talent is undoubted, and the current situation of Liu Yan can be described as very bad. However, these Li Ru naturally wouldn't tell Liu Yanming, in Li Ru's eyes, Liu Yan was old after all, and it was difficult to do anything under the eyes of the heroes.
As soon as the news of Liu Biao's large-scale attack on Luoyang spreads, the entire Sili will inevitably be in chaos, and those subservient clans are afraid that they will be ready to move immediately.
Once the Luoyang magnates know that Liu Biao's dormant wolf has stretched out its fangs, these wall-grass will obviously have some dirty actions.
But paper can't contain the fire after all, since Liu Biao dares to appear, he must have made a perfect plan, I'm afraid it won't be long before the news spreads.
The big family doesn't care about any kindness and benevolence, they only value interests, and they can change people to take refuge at any time.
If hundreds of thousands of troops are still there, then Liu Biao is not afraid at all.
But the problem now is that Luoyang's troops are extremely empty, especially a few days ago, the state army attacked Hedong, and Fan Chou's Flying Bear Army took out half of it and went to Hedong, and now, even Luoyang City, the imperial capital, has less than 20,000 defenders left.
"Your Majesty, don't panic, it's the right way to secretly gather the people of the Tiger Prison Pass to return first." Li Ru said, his eyes suddenly flickered.
"It's really not good, you can move the capital to Chang'an or Guanzhong, or even enter Yizhou......
Liu Yan also has no choice, and now he can only make amends.
But the idea of entering Chang'an didn't flash in the mind of the message at all, Chang'an is the hometown of the Xiliang Army, although there are natural dangers such as Hangu Pass, but it is not Liu Yan's style to hand himself over to others.
As for Yizhou...... Liu Yan pondered for a while, and also gave up this idea, although Yizhou is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is a good place to settle down, but he is old after all, and he really has no time to kill from Yizhou again.
Only moving the capital to Hanzhong is the most suitable decision in front of you.
After all, Hanzhong can also be regarded as a tiger looking at Gyeonggi, and the Kwantung princes are not monolithic, as long as there is infighting, the possibility of Liu Yan gaining the advantage again is not small.
………………
In the mountains of the vast Qinling Mountains, several horsemen were urging horses to gallop.
Through the glow of the waning moon, it can be faintly seen that the rider in front is a white-clothed scribe, the rider behind is a middle-aged military general in armor, and the rest are also murderous warriors.
The team was fast, and on this slightly rugged mountain road, it was still on the ground.
Just as they stepped onto a mountain beam, the white-clothed scribe suddenly reined in the horse's reins with a "hoo", and the mount under the crotch suddenly stood up, and suddenly stopped the forward momentum, this time it became hasty, but the few people behind him still strangled the mount with superb riding skills, and did not hit the white-clothed scribe in front.
"Tiger, look at that Yiyang City!" The white-clothed scribe whispered with his finger in front of him.
The military general looked in the direction of the white-clothed scribe's finger, and sure enough, he saw that a sky-high fire had risen in Yiyang City, and through the red firelight, he could faintly see dense figures, as if they were troops.
"Let's go...... Check it out! The middle-aged general's eyes froze, and his face was full of doubts.
"Could it be that Liu Biao is already about to attack on a large scale?" A hint of a vulture flashed across the face of the white-clothed scribe.
A few people rushed a few miles ago, and they could barely see the color of the armor of the soldiers in Yiyang City.
"Huh? It seems to be a few of the Kwantung Coalition Army? The white-robed scribe's brow furrowed deeply.
"The Kwantung Coalition? Are they ransacking the county seat? The middle-aged general was obviously a little unconvinced.
"Aren't the people of the Kwantung Coalition still screaming outside the Tiger Prison Pass? How did it end up here? The middle-aged general's tone was completely inexplicable.
"It's strange, aren't Lu Bu, Tao Qian, Liu Yu and others in the Kwantung Coalition Army always boasting of benevolence and righteousness, how did he tear off the disguise on his face this time? This is indeed quite suspicious! ”
"Besides, if the Kwantung Coalition Army breaks through the Tiger Prison Pass, it will be impossible for the lord to think about uniting with Liu Biao anymore...... The prestige of the Kwantung Coalition Army will inevitably be great, and no one can stop it! As soon as the middle-aged general's words box opened, he suddenly couldn't hold it back, and said in a row.
"There must be something hidden in this matter, I'm afraid it won't be that simple." The white-robed scribe waved his hand.
"Look, General...... Hundreds of people poured out of the city gates! ”
The two were guessing, but it was one of the accompanying knights, whose eyes were sharp, and he noticed the abnormality.
"Liu Biao is so calculating!" The white-clothed scribe sighed in admiration, glanced at the middle-aged general, turned his horse's head, and rushed towards the mountains on the other side, disappearing in a moment.
Yiyang County, which was once a prosperous city, has now become hell!
At noon, groups of soldiers poured into the county seat of Yiyang, and the defenders of Yiyang City were breached before they could resist.
The soldiers who invaded the city wore the clothes and armor of the county soldiers in Yuzhou, Xuzhou and other places, and after entering the city on a large scale, they did not take the initiative to kill people, but just drove the people of the whole city out, burned houses and grabbed food.
As for those who really couldn't get out, this group of sergeants was not soft-hearted, and often took their lives with a wave of a knife.
Outside the county seat, Liu Pan looked at the sky-high fire in the city and sighed faintly.
Liu Pan is a native of Shandong, and he is used to seeing the scourge of soldiers and bandits, but it was not until today that he discovered that the so-called bandits are still far worse than the real Han officials, and his uncle's hand can be described as extremely vicious!
However, Liu Pan also admitted that this strategy is quite powerful, and it can be said to be a desperate plan!
Most of the soldiers under Liu Biao were new soldiers, at most, they had defeated some river bandits and bandits, and they lacked evil spirit, so they were not strong soldiers. Now after attacking these civilians, whether it is touched or not, the courage in his chest will always be stimulated a lot.
