Chapter 135: Cao Cao's Defeat
Xue Rengui looked at the fires everywhere, countless victims, and the people on the ground who were scolding, and couldn't help but have mixed feelings in his heart, and he couldn't imagine that he was still too late, so he sent some soldiers here to help extinguish the fire and save the people. He continued to bring up his silver scissors Fang Tian painting halberd.
Just as he was about to speak, the herald came and said, "Lord Qi, Lord Yuan Meng, they are here." β
It turned out to be Dong Zhuo's subordinate general Zhao Cen, and when he saw that Dong Zhuo had abandoned Luoyang and left, he contributed to Bishui Pass. Sun Jian drove his troops into first. Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei entered the Tiger Prison Pass, and the princes each led their armies in.
At this time, Yuan Shao's coalition army also came to Luoyang.
Let's say that Sun Jian flew to Luoyang, looking at the flames from afar, black smoke covering the ground, two or three hundred miles, and there were no chickens and dogs; Sun Jian sent troops to extinguish the fire, and ordered the princes to station their troops and horses on the wasteland.
Before Dong Zhuo left, he ordered Niu Fu Luoyang to drive the millions of people in Luoyang to Chang'an. One for each people, one for the army, dragging each other down; The number of people who died in the ravine is innumerable.
and indulged the sergeant *** woman, and took food from people; The sound of crying shook the heavens and the earth. If there is a person who walks slowly, there are 3,000 troops behind him urging the superintendent, and the army is holding a sharp knife and killing people on the road.
Dong Zhuo personally walked, taught all the gates to set fires, burned the houses of residents, and set fire to the temples and palaces. The north and south houses are connected by flames; The Changle palace is all scorched earth. He also sent Lu Bu to dig up the tombs of the first emperor and his concubines to take the gold, silver and jewelry. The soldiers took advantage of the situation to dig up the graves of officials and civilians. Dong Zhuo had more than 1,000 cars of gold satin and good things, robbed the Son of Heaven, the Queen Mother, the Queen, the Queen, the Queen, etc., and finally looked at Chang'an.
Cao Cao came to see Yuan Shao and said: "Now the thief is going west, and he can take advantage of the situation to pursue; It turns out that the soldiers are not moving, why? He said: "These soldiers are tired, and I am afraid that it will not be good to enter." Cao Cao said: "Dong thieves burned the palace, hijacked the Son of Heaven and moved there, the whole country shook, I look at you, I don't know where to go: this is the time for God to perish, and the world has been pacified in a war." What doubts do you have about not entering? β
And all the princes said that they should not act rashly.
Cao Cao was furious and said, "This kid is not enough to discuss!" So he personally led more than 10,000 troops, leading Xiahou, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Li Dian, and Le Jin, and came to chase Dong Zhuo in the starry night.
Xue Rengui said: "I'm afraid that Brother Meng De will suffer, I'll go and see." β
Yuan Shao said: "Okay! β
Let's say that Dong Zhuo went to the Xingyang area, and Xu Rong, who was too guarded, came out to greet him.
Li Ru said: "The prime minister has just left Luoyang to prevent chasing soldiers. You can teach Xu Rong to ambush the army next to the mountain dock inside and outside Xingyang City, and if there is an army chasing after them, you can let them go; Wait for our side to be defeated, and then intercept him and chase him down. so that latecomers dare not chase again. β
Dong Zhuo listened to his strategy, and asked Lu Bu to lead the elite troops to stop him.
While Bu was walking, Cao Cao chased all the way. Lu Bu laughed and said, "As Mr. Li expected! β
Lu Bu swung his horse away. Cao Cao dispatched troops and horses and shouted: "Traitor! Hijacking the Son of Heaven and moving to, where are the exiled people? β
Lu Bu scolded: "Cao Cao, a dog thief, how dare you speak wildly!" β
Xiahou jumped on his horse with a spear and directly attacked Lu Bu. The battle was not counted, Li urged an army to kill from the left, and Cao Cao hurriedly ordered Xiahou Yuan to meet the battle.
The shouting on the right started again, Guo Yan led the troops to kill, and Cao Cao hurriedly asked Cao Ren to meet him. Three-way people, unstoppable. Xiahoudun couldn't stop when he arrived at Lu Bu, and Pegasus returned to the battle. LΓΌ Bu led the cavalry to chase and kill, Cao Cao's army was defeated, and he ran away when he looked back at Xingyang.
Walked to the foot of a barren mountain, when there was about a change, the moon was as bright as day. In order to gather the remnants of the soldiers, he was about to bury the pot for cooking, but he heard the shouts around him, and Xu Rong ambushed the soldiers. Cao Cao hurriedly rode his horse, took the road and fled, and when he met Xu Rong, he turned around and left.
Rong took the arrow and shot Cao Cao in the shoulder. Cao Cao fled with arrows and stepped over the hillside. The two soldiers were ambushed in the grass, and when they saw Cao Cao's horse coming, the second shot was fired in unison, and Cao Cao's horse was shot and fell to the ground. Cao Cao rolled over and fell off his horse and was caught by two soldiers.
I saw a general coming on a flying horse, commanding two infantry to death with a sword, and dismounted to rescue Cao Cao. Cao Cao saw it, it was Cao Hong's.
Cao Cao said: "I'm going to die here, you can leave quickly!" β
Cao Hong said: "Gong hurriedly got on the horse!" I'm willing to walk. β
Cao Cao said: "The thief army is catching up, what should you do?" βγ
Cao Hong said: "The world can do without Cao Hong, and there can be no lord." β
Cao Cao said: "If I can survive, this is your strength." β
Cao Cao got on the horse, Cao Hong took off his armor, dragged his knife and fled with the horse.
When I walked about four or more, I saw a big river in front of me, blocking the way, and the shouting behind me was getting closer and closer. Cao Cao said: "My life has come here, I can't live anymore!" β
Cao Hong hurriedly helped Cao Cao dismount, got rid of his robe and armor, and dragged Cao across the water. After crossing the other side, the pursuers have arrived, and they release arrows across the water. Cao Cao ran away with water.
At this time, Xu Rong led a large number of Xiliang cavalry to rush over.
Cao Cao was suddenly shocked and said, "My life is over!" β
At this time, I suddenly heard a loud shout: "General Cao, don't worry!" Changshan Zhao Zilong is also here! β
Xue Rengui had expected that Cao Cao had fallen for Dong Zhuo's strategy, and specially sent Zhao Yun to support Cao Cao, while Xue Rengui personally led the Xue family army to chase Cao Cao, hoping to intercept him in the middle.
Xue Rengui chased halfway, Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army had already divided part to attack Cao Cao, and the rest were responsible for urging the people and hundreds of officials to hurry, the hundred officials were better, Dong Zhuo had prepared a carriage, although it was squeezed a little, but it was not enough to work the body, and the people were unlucky. Behind the people was only Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army, and if the pace of walking was a little slower, Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army would whip him with a leather whip behind him.
Even some irascible Xiliang soldiers directly pulled out the scimitar on their waists and hacked them to death. There was no one to dispose of the corpse, and even worse, the one who wanted to take the corpse of his family with him also became a corpse.
At this time, the scouts of the Xiliang Army came over, ran to Dong Zhuo and said, "Lord Qiqi, I found people and horses chasing after me under the banner of 'Xue' in the back. β
Dong Zhuo's face turned pale suddenly, and he said, "It must be Xue Rengui who is chasing after him, how can this be good?" We're dying. β
At this time, Xu Rong jumped out and said, "Don't be especially the lord, I am willing to resist the lord for a while." β
Dong Zhuo seemed to have a backbone, and said: "General Xu is worthy of being the general of our family!" The safety of our family is in your hands! β
Xu Rong said again: "Xu Rong is willing to go to the soup for the lord, and he will not give up!" β
Lu Bu couldn't help but be annoyed when he saw Dong Zhuo relying on Xu Rong so much, he was originally mixed with Dong Zhuo because of his strong martial arts, and Lu Bu had just lost to Xue Rengui a few days ago, during this time, Dong Zhuo's dependence on Lu Bu couldn't help but be much less.
Lu Bu couldn't stand it anymore, and jumped out and said, "Father-in-law, although the child was overwhelmed by Xue Rengui's anti-thief before!" However, the child is sure to block Xue Rengui for you this time. β
At this time, Li Ru said: "Although the Xue family army is brave, without Xue Rengui's bravery, it is not difficult to resist them!" Now, if General Lu Bu is allowed to block Xue Rengui, he can delay the migration of the large army. β
Dong Zhuo, who was originally hesitant, wanted Lu Bu to protect him closely. But when he heard Li Ru say this, he immediately made a decision and said, "Okay, let the child stop Xue Rengui, and General Xu Rong will command the soldiers and horses!" Tell the troops behind that they should hurry up for our family, don't grind, what's wrong with not eating! Diao Min, who walks slowly, must be trying to delay time for the rebels and kill our family! β
After finishing speaking, Dong Zhuo patted Lu Bu on the shoulder and said, "Child, we are waiting for you to come back safely!" Let's share the glory and wealth! β
Lu Bu said excitedly: "The child must follow the teachings of his father-in-law. β
After speaking, he picked up his Fang Tian painting halberd, rode a red rabbit horse, galloped on a horse, and went to the back.
Xu Rong also bowed his hand, said goodbye to Dong Zhuo, and commanded the army to stop Xue Rengui's Xue family's army.
Xue Rengui rode the white dragon horse, leading the Xue family's army at the moment, but suddenly found that Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army was already in front of him.
So, he raised his silver scissors to signal the troops to stop, and shouted, "Who is leading the army in front?" β
