Chapter 276: The current Dong Zhuo is also a good man
In 184 AD, the sixth year of Han Guanghe, in early April, although it was said that the Yellow Turban Army was in chaos and lost the hearts of the people in just two months, the Yellow Turban generals seemed to be in a broken jar and broken, attacking the major states and counties without their lives, killing those who could be killed, and robbing those who could.
In two months, the population loss of the Han Dynasty is extremely serious, the first of which is the Yanzhou area, because the tiger prison is closed to the moat, the Central Plains Yellow Turban is not allowed to go west, can only be looted in the same place, it is rumored that at this time in Yanzhou in addition to some counties can barely see the people, almost most of the people in the county have been killed and wounded, lucky to escape into the mountains and forests to avoid disaster, bad luck to become the Yellow Turban Army rations is also a very normal thing.
The Central Plains is ten rooms and nine empty, mourning is all over the wilderness, those Yellow Turban generals are full of money, as if stimulating the Yellow Turban Army in other states and counties, Zhang Mancheng of Nanyang slaughtered hundreds of families in Wancheng overnight, and collected as many as tens of thousands of cars of money and grain, and even the big granary in Wancheng could not be put down, and most of these grains and grass were Zhang Mancheng's trophies.
Nanyang is the hometown of the Great Han Emperor, Zhang Mancheng's move can be regarded as really touching the Han Ling Emperor in the imperial capital Luoyang, it is reported that when the Han Ling Emperor received the news that night, he stayed in the ancestral temple for the first time for a day and a night and did not come out, without any howl, nor any painful sound, very calm, calm and weird.
The next day, without any warning, Emperor Ling of Han sent a letter to Liu Tai in the north of Xinjiang with a personal quote, it is reported that Emperor Ling was preparing to let Liu Tai go south, and this news touched the hearts of all officials in the entire Han Dynasty, and even that night there were countless secret talkers from all parties in Luoyang City, but Liu Tai's sworn enemy Yuan did not move at all.
For a long time, Emperor Ling's ignorance of northern Xinjiang made many courtiers and princes think that Emperor Ling was worried that Liu Tai would go south and take the opportunity to seize his throne, and the disaster in Nanyang in front of him completely touched Emperor Ling's final bottom line, and most of them privately speculated that perhaps Emperor Ling was ready to give up the throne in order to save the Han Dynasty and let Liu Tai lead troops south.
On the third day of Emperor Ling of Han's letter, the war in Xinzheng changed dramatically, Zhang Wen, who commanded 20,000 soldiers and horses, was defeated, and the defeat was very complete.
As soon as Xinzheng was lost, the southeast gate of Luoyang was completely opened, and the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty was exposed to the eyes of Bocai's 200,000 army, who is Bocai? A bandit, a madman, in a few months, the entire northern part of Yuzhou has become an inch of grass, and almost all the people have become the rations of the Yellow Turban thieves.
Zhang Wen's battle report made Emperor Ling angry in the court, and ordered Zhang Wen to be killed alive on the spot, but fortunately, Zhang Wen's connections were good, and under the intercession of many colleagues, Zhang Wen was spared death, but the official position of Si Li's lieutenant could not be retained.
The situation is extremely urgent, in order to avoid Luoyang directly encountering the fire, the general He Jin asked the commander of the five battalions of the left and right Yulin Army to go to Yangcheng to block the 200,000 troops of Bocai, but unfortunately, the hundred officials who were afraid of death were worried that after He Jin led the troops to leave Luoyang, Luoyang soldiers and horses were insufficient, and they did not agree at all, although Emperor Ling also had this idea, after all, the Han still had to save face, but his arms couldn't twist his thighs, everyone was against it, what could Emperor Ling do?
Xinzheng, which has 20,000 soldiers and horses, has been conquered by Bocai, how can Yangcheng, which has only a few thousand soldiers and horses, stop Bocai's footsteps?
In three months of history, the Yellow Turban thieves finally under the leadership of Bocai, the soldiers came to Luoyang, 200,000 Yellow Turban thieves besieged Luoyang, under the leadership of Bocai, cut off the major water sources of Luoyang, put poison in the moat, in just a few days, Luoyang City killed and injured as many as 100,000 people, for a time I saw, the prosperous Luoyang, turned into a ghost in the world.
Luoyang was besieged, the princes shook, the world shook, and even the momentum of the entire Yellow Turban Army was raised, and the triumphant songs of the Yellow Turban Army were everywhere, like a rolling ball, and the Yellow Turban ranks around the country were getting bigger and bigger, shouting the slogan of "The sky is dead, the Yellow Sky should stand" asked Zhang Jiao to ascend the throne and claim the emperor, completely destroying the Han Dynasty.
However, Zhang Jiao in shame told the world that unless he attacked Chang'an, he would never ascend the throne and be the emperor, and Lu Zhi, who was besieged by Zhang Jiao, felt that the situation was getting worse and worse, although he was a little hesitant to let tens of thousands of people in shame be buried too cruelly, sorry for the ancestors' spirits in the sky, but if he didn't win the battle, the Han would really destroy the country.
In desperation, Lu Zhi could only grit his teeth, ruthlessly made the decision to put sulfur and pour fire oil in the water, and ordered that the people in the city should not be allowed to go out to prevent being discovered by the people.
In less than three days, everything was ready, Lu Zhi asked Dong Zhuo to lead the army to the expedition in order to make the seemingly defeated retreat more realistic, under the banner of a decisive battle with Zhang Jiao, to induce Zhang Jiao to lower his vigilance, and Lu Zhi personally stood on the city wall to supervise the battle.
In front of the two armies, Dong Zhuo sat on a batch of jujube red war horses, holding war knives in both hands, staring at the yellow turban thieves on the opposite side, and shouted: "Zhang Jiao Xiaoer, do you dare to fight with General Ben?" ”
The sound is like a bell, Dong Zhuo's voice spread throughout the battlefield, looking extremely arrogant, but no one knows that Dong Zhuo's appearance is just pretending, because Dong Zhuo has inquired about Zhang Jiao in private, and knows that Zhang Jiao's martial arts are very strong, even to the legendary innate peak realm, although Dong Zhuo is also very brave, but after a few years of enjoyment, martial arts have inadvertently begun to regress, how can it be Zhang Jiao's opponent?
However, since Dong Zhuo knew that he was not Zhang Jiao's opponent, how could he come forward to fight Zhang Jiao alone? In fact, it was because Dong Zhuo also got another piece of news, that is, Zhang Jiao was seriously ill! Very serious! It's hard to even get into the ground! As the saying goes, the tigers in the mountains don't dare to bully, but don't the tigers in the zoo dare to grin at them?
Hearing that Dong Zhuo actually dared to call out the battle, and the object was actually a god-like Zhang Jiao, the Yellow Turban Army suddenly felt a strange tranquility, and looked at Dong Zhuo with their mouths closed one by one, and the atmosphere on the battlefield suddenly became extremely solemn.
Four or five hundred thousand Yellow Turban troops were piled together, occupying two-thirds of the entire battlefield, although they were all croppers, but there were also two or three hundred thousand Yizhou regular troops, these regular troops were all cultivated by Zhang Jiao's hard work, although it is impossible to compare with the heavenly army in northern Xinjiang, but it has also experienced several major battles, it is considered an elite soldier, and those who have been on the battlefield will naturally form a bloody aura around their bodies, well, in layman's terms, that is, murderous energy, these murderous spirits gathered on Dong Zhuo's body, making Dong Zhuo couldn't help but be furious.
"Ahem" In the quiet battlefield, there was a slight cough suddenly, as if it sounded in all hearts, and I saw that a man who looked pale but revealed an ethereal aura all over his body was sitting on the eight-lift sedan chair and walked out slowly.
"Dong Zhongying, do you really want to fight with the deity?" raised his head and glanced at Dong Zhuo, who was sitting on a war horse hundreds of meters away, Zhang Jiao's expression was very flat, and it was so plain that it made people stand upside down.
A drop of cold sweat fell on Dong Zhuo's forehead, the power of this horn was too strong, Dong Zhuo felt that every word Zhang Jiao said seemed to be like a hammer hitting his heart, breathless and painful!
A mouthful of crimson blood stood out, Dong Zhuo looked at Zhang Jiao with a pale face, trembling slightly, as if he had seen something incredible.
The two sides will enter seven or eight hundred thousand soldiers, all of them looked at Dong Zhuo with bated breath, one by one with their mouths open and speechless, the Yellow Turban Army was shocked by the divine power of their commander, and the soldiers and horses behind Dong Zhuo were frightened because Zhang Jiao's gentle words could make Dong Zhuo vomit blood, completely different expressions, completely different consequences.
"You are too weak" Zhang Jiao looked at Dong Zhuo extremely indifferently, just like looking at an ant, unspeakably high, indescribably made Dong Zhuo want to spit out a few more mouthfuls of blood.
"You Rebel !!" Dong Zhuo gritted his steel teeth, this time it can be regarded as a loss of face and a big hair, in the Xiliang Army, Dong Zhuo has always been based on a strong attitude, but he didn't expect that this time he actually lost his front hooves, not only did he not show his heroism, but also lost face and lost more than he lost.
"Hey" sighed, indescribable melancholy, Zhang Jiao's eyes showed a hint of nostalgia, looked at the military formation of the imperial court army opposite, and said lightly: "Don't think that it is great to have a few innate masters hidden behind you, in the eyes of the deity, even ants are inferior, you better surrender as soon as possible, my Huangjiao dominates the world is the general trend, and no one can stop it."
"Heh" Dong Zhuo had blood stains on the corners of his mouth, and said with a miserable smile: "Zhang Jiao, Zhang Jiao, do you really think you can dominate the world?" Even if I, Dong Zhongying, died in battle, don't forget, there is still a tiger in the north of the Han Dynasty that has not gone south, as long as this tiger is released, everything you Yellow Turban thieves get is just a flower in the water! ”
"Humph!!" Zhang Jiao snorted coldly, his expression was indescribably ugly, since the uprising, Zhang Jiao chose to forget Liu Tai with his surname, and privately ordered that no one should be allowed to mention Liu Tai, in Zhang Jiao's opinion, as long as he invades Chang'an and destroys Luoyang, Liu Tai will sooner or later be his own meal, in this case, why should he consider Liu Tai?
"What if you have that tiger in the Han Dynasty? Don't you dare to use it? Zhang Jiao smiled, it was ugly, but people couldn't help but feel a gust of spring breeze blowing, and it was indescribably comfortable.
"Hehe, I didn't expect Zhang Jiao, who has already controlled the Central Plains and Southern Xinjiang, to know that His Majesty has issued an edict to let this tiger go south hahahaha!!ha Dong Zhuo laughed for a while, although it was said that Wen Wu was the first and Wu was the second, but for Liu Tai, Dong Zhuo really admired it from the bottom of his heart, because Liu Tai did what Dong Zhuo didn't dare to do, and did what tens of millions of heroes didn't dare to do, which is worthy of the admiration of martial artists and the admiration of people all over the world!
"What ???" Zhang Jiao shouted out of shape for a while, pointed at Dong Zhuo, his face turned from white to red, but he suddenly smiled, as if he suddenly realized his touch, pointed at Dong Zhuo, and shouted angrily: "Nonsense, who are you Dong Zhuo, who dare to disturb the hearts of our army and kill the whole army to charge, whoever took Dong Zhuo's head, the deity will be rewarded with 10,000 catties of gold!!! ”
"Woo woo woo"
The horn sounded, the two armies finally inevitably fought each other, the battlefield is a large meat grinder, this is the consensus of the Chinese nation for thousands of years, in just half an hour, the battlefield is full of stumps and broken arms, blood and water converge into a river, flowing in the battlefield
This is a bureau, with hundreds of thousands of Xiliang iron cavalry and hundreds of thousands of people in the city, Dong Zhuo is naturally impossible to fight on the battlefield, feeling that the time is almost up, Dong Zhuo ordered to slowly retreat to the city, preparing to escape from the east city.
Today's county town is a time bomb, although it may be very dangerous for the army to enter the palace, but in order to lead the king into the urn, Dong Zhuo has to do so, because Dong Zhuo also has a heart to serve the country, Dong Zhuo's natural gambling surname determines that Dong Zhuo will flee when it is impossible to defeat the enemy, but in the case of hope of defeating the other party, Dong Zhuo will fight with the other party.
