Luoyang City.

Although there was a burning fire in the sky at this time, the fire had not yet come down after all, and everyone present knew why the fire was burning and when it would fall, so the court meeting that should be held would still be held.

"You're restless."

Above the main hall, Dong Zhuo sat on the steps below the dragon chair and sighed softly.

Although the sound was not loud, it clearly reached the ears of everyone in the temple.

The courtiers still stood in line according to their usual positions, but there were a lot more vacant seats in today's queue.

Those ministers were all killed by Dong Zhuo's soldiers who wanted to disguise themselves as civilians to go out of the city after the fire broke out last night.

"I've told you, I'll let you go when it's time to go, and I'll definitely not hurt you if you're obedient!"

Like educating a stubborn child, Dong Zhuo looks like a loving father with a serious speech.

"Yes, Captain Ho."

He Tingwei, who was called by name, trembled, and cold sweat flowed down instantly, and he buried his head deeply, as if Dong Zhuo couldn't see him in this way.

"I heard that you dressed up as a civilian near the East Gate last night, did you see anything?"

He Tingwei responded hesitantly, and he didn't know what he was saying.

"But it doesn't matter, this Luoyang is going to be gone soon."

As if talking to himself, Dong Zhuo said calmly.

"Let's take a look at it, this palace has been lived in for a while, and it is quite comfortable, but it will burn down immediately, which is a pity."

Dong Zhuo got up, glanced at the roof of the hall a few times, and then walked down the steps slowly, and casually waved out a large fire, burning He Tingwei into ashes in an instant.

"Fornication with Yuan Shao."

Dong Zhuo walked out of the hall without looking back.

"Congratulations to the ...... of the Grand Master"

A shout of not-so-uniform sounded.

And at the moment when Dong Zhuo walked out of the main hall, Li Ru, who had been waiting in the shadows, hurriedly followed behind Dong Zhuo.

"Taishi, the scouts have found traces of coalition forces on the way to Tiger Prison Pass."

"How many? All or just the vanguards? When will it come? ”

Dong Zhuo's footsteps abrupt, and he turned his head to look at Li Ru.

"It should be the vanguard, I can arrive at this time tomorrow, looking at the banner of the coalition army, it seems that Sun Jian and Liu Bei are leading the team."

"These two ......"

Dong Zhuo groaned, Liu Bei only heard about it recently, he defeated Lu Bu in Huaxiong, and he broke the two levels of the Bishui Tiger Prison, and it is not too much to say that he is in the limelight. But this Sun Jian is an old acquaintance.

Most of the princes' bases in the coalition army are in the north and south of the Yellow River, and only Sun Jian is in Changsha south of the Yangtze River.

If you want to say that Dong Zhuo is afraid of the coalition army, eight of them are on Sun Jian.

Because of this, Dong Zhuo privately suggested to Sun Jian that his granddaughter Dong Bai marry Sun Jian's eldest son Sun Ce, but he was directly scolded back by Sun Jian.

If it's these two people, this Luoyang really can't have it.

"How's your formation going?"

"If you go back to the Taishi, Emperor Guangwu's soul is not as powerful as he imagined, if he is the soul alone, it will be ...... to support the large array."

"Then dig again! There are so many imperial mausoleums around Luoyang, I don't believe enough! ”

Dong Zhuo interrupted Li Ru's words loudly.

"Yes, Master."

Li Ru bowed his head and said respectfully.

That's what he was waiting for, digging the imperial tomb is a matter of retribution, if he excavates without authorization, this retribution will naturally attract himself, but if he is ordered to excavate, then retribution will not find himself.

"Hurry up and do it!"

Seeing that Li Ru was still unhurried and respectful, Dong Zhuo waved his hand a little angrily and urged loudly.

……

At the same time, before the Tiger Prison was closed.

After a night of chaos, the former powerful coalition camp was now in ruins, with collapsed military tents, invincible banners, and corpses strewn across the field.

"The coalition forces are scattered."

On the head of the city of Tiger Prison, looking at the camp that had become ruins, Cao Cao sighed lightly.

"It's all Han Fu's fault!"

Yuan Shao on the side said angrily, his face was full of black ash, and his hair was messy and untidy, this embarrassed appearance was almost difficult to see on him in a famous family.

"If it weren't for him, the coalition forces would have taken Luoyang just around the corner!"

Listening to Yuan Shao's words, Cao Cao had an undeniable expression on his face.

Han Fu is a great Confucian, and his personality is called peaceful if he sounds good, and he is called cowardly if he says something bad, such a cowardly person doesn't have the courage to make trouble at all.

Cao Cao had an intuition that the reason why this Han Fu set off turmoil was definitely related to the alliance leader Yuan Shao in front of him, but Han Fu was dead and there was no evidence.

Yuan Shao quietly glanced at Cao Cao with his spare eyes, and his mind was also turning.

Killing Han Fu was the last step in his plan to seize Jizhou, and he used the illusion of Han Fu created by Frustration to send false orders, so that Han Fu's soldiers raided the other princes, and the real Han Fu soon fell under the swords of the other princes. As for the chaos behind, it was also expected by him, and this chaos just covered up many doubts for him.

It is not important that he occupies Jizhou, the important thing is a matter of cause and effect, one is that he seized Han Fu's Jizhou and caused Han Fu to set off turmoil in the coalition army, but the other is because Han Fu died in the turmoil, so there was no one in Jizhou, and he managed it on behalf of the imperial court.

The fourth generation and third duke of the Yuan family, there can be no loss in reputation, not to mention that he is just a concubine, and he must pay more attention to what he does.

Cao Cao and Yuan Shao stood at the head of the Tiger Prison Pass, silent for a long time, but suddenly said in unison.

"Dare to ask Meng De (Brother Benchu), what are you going to do next."

The coalition forces have now dispersed, and the princes of the Eighteenth Route have all dispersed overnight, and only the two of them are left here.

Seeing that the two collided, Cao Cao, who had a lower status, did not give in this time, but spoke first.

"When the camp was in turmoil last night, it coincided with the fire in Luoyang, and now although there are no millions of coalition troops, Meng De still wants to rush to the aid of the Han family, even if he exhausts the remnants of the army in his hands."

Lie, at the beginning of the turmoil last night, he Cao Cao took all his men to hide aside, if he really wanted to rush to the aid of the Han family, he would have joined Sun Liu a long time ago.

"If it is Luoyang, I can go with Meng De, on the one hand, it is also for the sake of righteousness, and on the other hand, it is for my uncle Yuan Kui."

Yuan Shao's uncle Yuan Kui was originally the Taifu of this dynasty, and Yuan Shao's previous alliance leader also relied on his uncle's momentum, but Dong Zhuo directly killed Yuan Kui's entire family in Luoyang in order to retaliate against Yuan Shao's army.

After he is a famous family, Yuan Shao has to take his uncle's body back for a good burial.

"In that case, when does the first brother plan to leave?"

"In two days, now that the army is out of chaos, it needs to be cultivated."

Cao Cao, how could he not see through Yuan Shao's cover-up, to put it bluntly, he just let Sun Jian and Liu Bei, who had passed over last night, consume it first, and then go over to pick the fruit himself; As for that uncle Yuan Kui, it is not so much that Yuan Shao wants to save it, but that he wants to let the world know that he wants to save it.

"Brother Ben Chu is really steady, since this is the case, then I will also cultivate a little, and then I will save Luoyang with Brother Ben Chu."
