At noon, it was getting dark.

Billowing smoke and dust filled the sky, this year's drought and little rain, most of the palaces and pavilions were dry and flammable, the fire was together, and the fire was fierce and difficult to extinguish.

The north wind does not stop, but so does the smoke and dust.

I don't know when, a dark cloud drifted in the sky, obscuring the sun and casting a large shadow.

Underground, through the dark and damp secret passage, Li Ru finally came to his destination.

"Babble! Bang! ”

Turning over the heavy stone slab, Li Ru walked out with the leader.

Here it is back above the ground.

It's just that it's in a closed stone chamber.

There was no light inside, only the torches held by the soldiers illuminated the surroundings.

Li Ru is also here for the first time.

Here, it is the mausoleum of Emperor Guangwu.

By the light of the torches, Li Ru took in the scene inside the stone.

The scale here is magnificent, the farthest as far as the eye can see is twenty or thirty zhang, the farther is the darkness that the light does not shine, looking up, the highest point is more than five zhang high, and the tall stone pillars seem to hold up the heavy zenith as if reaching through the sky.

Looking at a building of this scale, the soldiers who came in were silent, and they didn't dare to make a sound, so they even lowered their breathing.

In the Han Dynasty, there were four emperors who were very famous, Liu Bang, Emperor Taizu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, Emperor Xiaowu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Bei, Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty.

One hundred and sixty years ago, it was the last years of Wang Mang of the New Dynasty, the sea collapsed, and the world was in chaos.

After a twelve-year-long war of unification, Liu Xiu successively extinguished the separatist regimes in Kwantung, Longyou, Xishu and other places, and put an end to the warlord melee and secession that lasted for nearly 20 years since the end of Xinmang.

When Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu died, he left an edict: "I am not beneficial to the people, and the future affairs will be according to the system of Emperor Xiaowen, and I must be thrifty." ”

It stands to reason. Liu Xiu's imperial mausoleum should not have been built on such a scale.

But Li Ru knew that what was really important here was not Liu Xiu's coffin, but the root of the dragon qi of the Han Dynasty for more than 300 years!

The leader held a torch and walked slowly, saying as he walked: "In the past, Emperor Guangwu was in the Han Dynasty. The capital was Luoyang, and after the world was pacified, the remnants of the former Han Dynasty were also migrated and stored here. ”

Li Ru has also heard of this for a long time, and the imperial mausoleum here was built when Liu Xiu was still alive.

Li Ru followed behind and said, "I heard that Liu Xiu listened to the advice of the Daomen back then, and did his best to accept the soldiers of the 28 generals of Yuntai and stay here. Build a statue to form a formation and defend the mausoleum for its town? ”

The leader didn't look back, and said, "You're right. The 28 generals of Yuntai are loyal and righteous, have a fighting spirit, keep the fighting spirit, suppress demons and ward off evil spirits, and for more than 100 years, they have kept the Han room Antai. ”

"Huh." Li Ru smiled silently.

In recent years, natural disasters and man-made disasters have continued in various parts of the Han Dynasty. The yellow scarf was in turmoil, and the Spirit Emperor died. Now there are even more people with ill intentions who have broken into the emperor's mausoleum.

The role of the soldiers left by the 28 generals of this Yuntai is almost useless.

The leader didn't care, and said, "After all, it's been more than 100 years, and if you calculate it carefully, it's almost 150 years, right?" ”

Li Ru replied: "It's really about the same number." ”

"So, no matter how strong the soldiers, no matter how powerful the formation. After all, it can't withstand the baptism of time. ”

"Let's go."

The leader stopped.

Li Ru walked up to him and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"The front is the scope of the formation." Leading the way.

Li Ru asked, "You should have a way to break the formation, right?" ”

"Of course! I'm here to break this formation! ”

Li Ru raised his eyes and saw that the twenty-eight adult-height statues were in each direction, guarding the coffin of Emperor Guangwu in the center.

Each of the twenty-eight statues carries a weapon. There are dragon and phoenix knives, painted poles and square halberds, double gold armor, overlord guns, nine-eared eight-ring knives, and Tuotian flame forks and so on.

Twenty-eight weapons were still shining, as if someone had been maintaining them all year round.

But it was clear that of course very few people came in.

Even if someone comes in, under the protection of the formation, they generally can't break in.

Even if you can break in, you won't be so idle to wipe and maintain these blades.

The leader's voice sounded again: "This is the Twenty-Eight Nakshatra Great Array!" ”

His gaze also fell on those blades: "It is the power of this formation that makes these blades last for a long time!" ”

Li Ru sighed: "According to legend, the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai are the twenty-eight stars of Shangying Heavenly Court, and now it seems that it may not be groundless?" ”

"Naturally not! In the past, although not all of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai were born into the world with heavenly stars, nearly half of them were still there. ”

It seems that since entering here, the leader has been a little excited.

Li Ru turned his head to look at him, although this person was dressed inconspicuously, and even deliberately dressed up, but he couldn't hide Li Ru's eyes.

What's more, along the way, the closer he got to this emperor's tomb, the more undisguised this person's words and deeds became, and now it was almost completely exposed, and Li Ru would never underestimate him no matter how he was.

At this time, Li Ru asked: "I don't know who your Excellency is, I don't know if you can tell the truth?" ”

The leader smiled and said, "Since you know that I won't answer, why do you bother to ask?" ”

Li Ru also smiled: "How do you know without asking." ”

"Okay, without further ado, let's start breaking the formation."

"Okay. Childish, you asked people to come over and help. Li Ru commanded.

Li Ru came over on this trip, and naturally he would not be without the escort of the generals.

It was Li Dao who came over.

"Yes!" Li Wei immediately asked a small group of Xiliang soldiers to come over to help, while he himself pressed the formation behind.

In the imperial tomb, even the bold Li Dao was a little worried and didn't dare to go too far.

Just when Li Ru and the others were about to break through the twenty-eight star array, the wind and clouds in the sky changed, the clouds were stacked on top of each other, and the faint bright light flickered in them, and there were gradually signs of a coming thunderstorm.

Since repelling the army led by Lu Zhi, Zhu Jun, and Huangfu Song, Han Nuo and others came all the way to the imperial city.

Along the way, he actually collected and surrendered another three or four thousand people, half of whom were soldiers killed by Lu Bu when he pursued Dong Zhuo.

Ahead, with the help of the idle clouds, Lu Bu pursued Dong Zhuo all the way and killed the imperial city.

Thanks to Huaxiong and Xiliang Tieqi, and Mo Yiming to respond, I am afraid that Dong Zhuo will not be able to retreat into the imperial city.

"Kill!"

At this time, some court officials in the imperial city were gathering the guerrillas and scattering bravely, busy fighting the fire, but unexpectedly, the Xiliang army that had already left killed the horse gun again.

The Xiliang Army, who was fighting and fleeing, didn't care who these people were standing in the way, and they would cut them with a shout and a knife.

Those who couldn't run were immediately cut down to the ground, and even thousands of horses trampled them over, directly shattering into mud.

There are many palace gates and courtyard walls in the palace city, and the Xiliang army retreats here to stop the decline, and Hua Xiong, Guo Yan and others will each base the palace gate and block Lu Bu's and state cavalry outside the palace city.

At this moment, there was a thunderous sound in the sky.

"What's going on?"

It was this thunder that sounded, and everyone in Luoyang City realized that the sky did not know when it had changed greatly. (To be continued.) )
