Chapter 39: Rebellion

In the morning, the streets of Chang'an City gradually became lively, and the people at the gate of the city went in and out, all of which were the same as usual. The sergeants guarding the door all looked a little lazy.

A middle-aged man in business led a group of companions to drive the donkeys carrying goods to a tea shop at the city gate. The owner of the tea shop obviously knew him and greeted him from afar. The middle-aged man and his companions sat down, and the boss immediately brought a few bowls of herbal tea. "Lao Zhou, I haven't seen you for a long time! I thought you weren't coming to Chang'an! The two of them laughed and said, "How can you not come!" The dozen or so people in my family are all pointing to this business! The situation was unstable some time ago, so it didn't come out! โ€

The boss nodded, "Old Zhou, you drink slowly, I'm going to get busy." โ€

"You go and get busy, you don't have to call me." The owner left. The middle-aged man picked up the tea bowl and was about to drink tea, when he suddenly saw the water surface of the tea soup tremble violently, and he was stunned, and then felt the earth tremble, and the thunderous rumble came from far and near.

The middle-aged man was surprised and turned his head to look at the city gate. When he saw a large group of wolf-like cavalry rushing in, he killed anyone he saw, and he was so frightened that his soul was scared.

Zhang Lang came to the hall with Fang Tian's halberd in full clothes. Several women were there, and when they saw Zhang Lang, they hurriedly greeted them, and Yan Yuyao asked worriedly, "What's going on outside!" โ€

Zhang Lang shook his head and said, "It's okay!" Stay at home and don't go anywhere! I'll check it out! Then he ran out of the lobby and out the door.

As soon as I went out, I saw the flames in the direction of the West City Gate from afar, and the screams and shouts of killing kept coming. Zhang Lang frowned, he felt that things seemed to be very strict, but he didn't know what was going on?

Gao Shun led eight hundred iron horsemen to Zhang Lang, hugged his fists and said, "General, everyone is ready!" Zhang Lang commanded: "Stay outside the door!" Then he hurried back, saw several women, and immediately ordered them to pack up and prepare to evacuate. Although Zhang Lang didn't know what was going on, he decided to prepare for the worst!

At this moment, Wang Yun rushed in and shouted in horror: "Oh no, Fengxian!" Guo Yan and Li Qi led the army to rebel! โ€

Zhang Lang was shocked, he originally just wanted to disturb the situation in Chang'an, so that he could take the opportunity to break into Chang'an and rescue the members of the royal family and the ministers to the five northern counties, but he didn't expect those two wolf-hearted people to rebel!? Things went far beyond what he had anticipated!

"How's it going?" Zhang Lang asked urgently.

Wang Yun panted and said, "Dong Zhuo's personal guards and Niu Fu's army are engaged with Guo Yan and Li Zhen's army near the West City Gate!" I don't know how the battle went! Then he hurriedly said: "Fengxian, you hurry up to save the emperor!" โ€

Dong Ying, who was standing on the side and was fully clothed, said anxiously: "I'm going to my father's!" With that, he was leaving.

Zhang Lang pulled her back and said angrily: "Don't run around in this situation!" lest I take care of one at the expense of the other! I'll escort you out of the city first, and then I'll come back to save them!" โ€

A moment later, Zhang Lang led 800 iron cavalry to escort Wang Yun and Yan Yuyao from the north gate to leave Chang'an. The group traveled several miles and joined the 3,000 light cavalry led by Zang Ba. Zang Ba and these 3,000 light cavalry had actually been lurking near Chang'an for a long time, and many of the previous actions were done by them.

Zhang Lang handed over Yan Yuyao and Wang Yun to Zang Ba, and asked him to escort everyone to the north side of the Weiqiao Bridge to wait. Weiqiao, an important bridge over the Wei River north of Chang'an, whether you want to go north from Chang'an or from the north to Chang'an, Weiqiao is the only way.

Zhang Lang led 800 iron horsemen back to Chang'an, and encountered many panicked people fleeing along the way. Enter the city and find that the situation in the city is even more chaotic! In front of the palace, several main streets were reduced to the main battlefield, and the armies of the two sides fought back and forth! Soldiers from both sides took advantage of the chaos to break into people's houses, kill people and loot! The whole Chang'an seems to have become an oven!

Suddenly, news came that Dong Zhuo was trapped in the Taishi Mansion by Guo Yan's army and was in danger.

Zhang Lang immediately led eight hundred iron horsemen towards the Taishi Mansion. Before he arrived at the Taishi Mansion, he saw a sea of people on the street in front of the Taishi Mansion from a distance, and the sound of killing resounded in the sky, and thousands of rebels were attacking the gate of the Taishi Mansion.

Zhang Lang immediately led 800 iron cavalry into the enemy's army, and the enemy was caught off guard and killed, so that people were on their backs and trembled, and someone shouted in shock: "It's Lu Bu!" Lu Bu is here! โ€

Zhang Lang took the lead and opened a bloody road, until in front of the rebel generals, he raised his halberd and fell, and the other party was cut off before he could react!

The rebels were shocked and scattered.

The gate opened, Zhang Lang rode in, but he didn't see Dong Zhuo, and after asking, he learned that Dong Zhuo had already broken out of the siege from the east gate under the escort of the Flying Bear Army, and was currently in Mei Wu, and now only Dong Zhuo's direct pro-army and Niu Fu's army were fighting against the rebels in the city, and it seemed that Dong Zhuo didn't want to give up Chang'an just like that.

Zhang Lang led 800 iron horsemen to leave the Taishi Mansion. From afar, I saw the flames in the direction of the palace, and huge roars and shouts of killing kept coming. Immediately led 800 iron horsemen to the palace.

Guo Yan and Li Zhen personally commanded 30,000 elites to storm the palace. Niu Fu led nearly 20,000 horses under his command to resist hard. The battle situation was very unfavorable for Niu Fu's side.

At this moment, in the palace hall, the young emperor was trembling with his sister in his arms, and a group of ministers and ministers were around, all of them looking overly frightened. Every shout or loud impact from outside startled them.

Boom! Suddenly, there was a loud noise outside. A bad feeling rose in everyone's hearts.

Outside the main hall, there were all kinds of murderous sounds, accompanied by chaotic running shouts and screams.

A eunuch covered in blood rushed in, "No, it's not good! The rebels have come in! โ€

As soon as the words fell, countless rebel soldiers poured in from the door, and the hall immediately exploded, and everyone ran in a panic, in this case, no one could take care of the emperor and the princess!

When Niu Fu led the army to snatch out the emperor and wanted to save others, he was repelled by the army led by Guo Yan himself, and he could only flee with the emperor wolf Bรจi. Guo Yan and Li Zhen's armies plundered the palace, the palace maids became the trophies of the rebels, and those princes and nobles were slaughtered like pigs and dogs, and the originally splendid palace became a purgatory on earth!

The princess and several palace maids escaped from the palace through the west gate of the palace under the escort of a dozen eunuchs, but thousands of rebels chased after them. The princess heard hurried footsteps and horses' hooves behind her, and someone shouted wildly, "The one ahead is the emperor's sister!" Catch her and dedicate it to the general! โ€

Soon, the princess and a dozen of them were surrounded by rebel legions!

The rebel generals at the head glanced at the princess and exclaimed, "How beautiful! She is worthy of being a princess of the Han Dynasty! I will dedicate you to the general, and the general will be rewarded! The princess turned pale with fright, like a sheep surrounded by wolves.

At this moment, the sound of rolling horses' hooves suddenly sounded on the street behind me. The rebel generals subconsciously looked back, and saw nearly a thousand heavily armored iron horsemen rushing towards them, like a group of tigers descending from the mountain, and the momentum was extremely impressive! He immediately realized that it was not his own person, "Prepare to fight!" โ€

More than 2,000 rebels immediately turned to meet the battle.
