Chapter 16: Countdown to the Return

"Meng De now has generals like Miaocai, Yuan Rang, Ziyi, and Zilian, but there are no strategists, this Jia Xu is exactly what Meng De is preparing for!" Now that Cao Cao has just been abandoned by Chen Gong, he is indeed very lacking in strategists.

Cheng Yu is still living in Dong'e County, East County, Yanzhou, and has just gained a little reputation for fighting against the Yellow Turban; Xun You also served as a waiter at the Yellow Gate in Luoyang, living a precarious life; His uncle Xun Yu has resigned from his official position as guarding the palace order and returned to his hometown Yingchuan; The ghost genius Guo Jiashang lived in seclusion in Yingchuan, secretly befriending Yingjie and not interacting with the world; Xi Zhicai does not know his whereabouts, perhaps only Xun Yu knows his whereabouts; Sima Yi is now just a teenager.

When he entered Luoyang and found Xun You, he might be able to wipe out the Yingchuan strategists, so after recommending Jia Xu, Li You pointed out again, "Today, there is a Huangmen squire Xun You who has no last resort, and he has reached the power change; When he entered Luoyang, Meng De should personally come to visit; Xun You was born in Yingchuan Xun's family, has a wide range of friends, and many of his relatives and friends have the talent of wind music, if he can get his help, Meng De will not need to worry about the strategist! "If you get Xun You, you can hook up with Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, plus the poisoner Jia Xu, Cao Cao's strategists are almost enough!

"Xun You's name Cao has also heard of it!" Cao Cao stroked his beard and nodded yes, his doubts were even worse, and he couldn't help but ask, "Why doesn't Wenjie take these two people into himself?" There are fierce generals like Li Yuanba, Guan Sheng, and Pan Feng under the Wenjie account! With the help of Xun You and Jia Xu, you will definitely be able to achieve a career! ”

"That's what Mende said! But I'm running out of time! Therefore, I can only hand over the responsibility of helping the world to Meng De! Li You sighed, he already felt that the tiger talisman in his arms was heating up, maybe it wasn't long before he completed the task and returned to Great Wei, right? It's really a coincidence, I traveled to the Great Wei, and the first mission met the Emperor Wu of Wei beside me.

"Huh?" Cao Cao's color changed, and he thought a little crookedly, "My Guanwen temperament is still good, I'm afraid it won't be like this, right?" ”

You don't have to make excuses for thinking like this, Li You took a few steps forward and leaned on the city wall and sighed, "This is a great country, I'm afraid I won't see the time for it to be resettled!" Waving his hand to stop Cao Cao's interjection, Li You continued, "I heard that the former famous scholar Xu Zijiang Zeng Yun Mengde is a capable minister who rules the world, and a hero in troubled times!" ”

Cao Cao was silent, according to the Tiger Prison Pass peeping into Luoyang, he is now standing at the crossroads of this choice, if you want to help the Han family, you will be able to become a capable minister of the world, and other thoughts are the heroes of the troubled times.

"I don't care if Meng De wants to be Huo Guang or Wang Mang, I just want the world to calm down as soon as possible!" Li You is not Liu Bei, he doesn't have a dime of admiration for the Liu royal family, if there is a hero like their ancestors Liu Che of the Han Dynasty and Liu Xiu of the Guangwu Emperor, what is there to admire about the Han Xian Emperor Liu Xie on the throne now?

Without waiting for Cao Cao to answer, Li You flicked his sleeves, "I'm a little tired, go back to the camp to rest first, and then kill Luoyang with Meng De tomorrow!" "I don't believe that you can't handle the other princes after helping you open such a big hanging!

Throwing the dazed Cao Cao on the city wall, Li You took Guan Sheng back to his tent, ordered him to guard outside the tent, and took out the tiger talisman himself, and the voice of the system sounded again, "Defeat Lu Bu to capture the Tiger Prison Pass, you will get a reward, and the host can choose to return within fifteen days; Is it time to return and claim your rewards? ”

Fifteen days! It seems that it is enough to wait for Cao Cao to capture Luoyang! I'd better see if I'll go back! As for the rewards, they shouldn't be needed now, so if you're in danger, just choose to return immediately!

With this in mind, Li You refused to return immediately and put the tiger talisman back into his arms! At this time, Li Yuanba, Pan Feng and others also completed their tasks and returned to the tent, drank and celebrated, and then went to sleep.

In the early morning of the next day, Cao Cao, Sun Jian, Ma Teng, Gongsun Zhan, Liu Bei and Li You set off again and led their men and horses straight to the direction of Luoyang!

At this time, Dong Zhuo, who had come to his senses, had already begun to kill in Luoyang City! Li Ruxian persuaded Dong Zhuo to abandon Luoyang and flee to Chang'an with Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and his ministers, but unlike the original book, this time the time was tighter, and Dong Zhuo had no way to take the people of Luoyang; Because of the dissuasion of Dong Zhuo, Shangshu Zhou Yu and Chengmen Captain Wu Qiong were beheaded, and Yang Biao, Huang Wan, and Xun Shuang were dismissed as commoners.

Because Yuan Shao was the leader of the anti-Dong coalition army, the Yuan family who stayed in Luoyang City was slaughtered! Before leaving, Dong Zhuo did not forget to arrest the rich families in Luoyang and loot gold, silver and jewelry, and for a time the cry in Luoyang City shook the sky. In the end, Dong Zhuojun simply set fire to Zhumen, burned the houses of residents, and set fire to the Zongmiao Palace. The north and south palaces are connected by flames; The Changle palace is full of scorched earth.

Walking to the vicinity of Luoyang, looking at the flames in the distance, black smoke covering the ground, for a while Liu Bei cried bitterly, Li You showed an angry face, and Sun Jian scolded Cao Cao and quickly ordered people to speed up.

When I arrived at the city of Luoyang, I saw that the city gate was wide open, and there was no defender on the city tower! After the coalition army rushed into the city, it was divided into two groups, one group under the leadership of Li You and Liu Bei killed the ruffians and hooligans who took advantage of the opportunity to make trouble along the road, restored order in the city, and helped the people to extinguish the fire. After doing these things, Li You instructed Pan Feng to lead his troops to garrison on the city wall, and be sure to block Yuan Shao's army outside the city.

And Cao Cao led the armies of Sun Jian, Gongsun Zhan, and Ma Teng to chase and kill Dong Zhuo along the way! Seeing countless gold, silver and jewels scattered along the way, Cao Cao immediately ordered the Xiahou brothers to lead their cronies to monitor along the way, but those who dared to pick up treasures were determined to be killed, and finally caught up with Dong Zhuo's army at sunset.

After defeating several waves of broken men and horses one after another, when they were about to attack Dong Zhuo's camp, I saw Li Dian take Li Ru to tie up Dong Zhuo's five flowers, and Li Dao and Guo Yan accompanied him left and right! Cao Cao was overjoyed when he saw this, knowing that Li Dian had persuaded Li Ru to surrender!

"Dong Zhuo old thief, have you ever thought that there is today?" Cao Cao immediately stepped forward and scolded.

"Bah, I only hate that I had no eyes that day, and I never killed you!" Dong Zhuo knew that he was no longer spared, and began to scold.

"You want to die quickly, but now it's hard to be afraid!" Cao Cao didn't care, and turned to Li Ru, "Wen You abandoned the secret and made great contributions to the court, and I will definitely reward His Majesty Ming!" But where is Your Majesty now? ”

When Li Ru heard this, he knew that his fate had been saved, so he immediately led Cao Cao to the way, "Your Majesty is now in the tent, so I will lead the princes to meet you!" ”

On Cao Cao's side, Li Ru led Dong Zhuo's army to surrender, Dong Zhuo was captured, and Liu Xie, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, was in his own hands; And Li You also encountered a great good thing here!
