Chapter 100: The alliance is scattered, and the world is divided
For three days, Zhuge Jin did not participate in the siege, except for the necessary time every day, he hid in the tent, and muttered to Jia Xu, both of whom knew that the alliance was about to disperse.
In the same way as Zhuge Jin, there are Ma Teng and Gongsun Zhan, one of them is all cavalry, and the other is almost completely damaged, and he sits like a mountain every day.
Tiger Prison Pass, guarding the general Zhao Cen Mansion, since Li Ru left, this pass belongs to him the largest, but the control of power did not bring him a trace of joy, but made him frightened.
On the first day, although he relied on the 30,000 Xiliang soldiers left behind to keep the tiger prison safe, Zhao Cen became more and more uneasy in his heart, and he woke up several times in the middle of the night, and he lost his sleepiness. got up and walked to Guanshan, looked at the endless night sky outside the pass, and secretly cursed Li Ru in his heart: "Turtle son, let Lao Tzu stay and guard the pass, it is clear that Lao Tzu is sent to death, and what do you say must hold on for two days, who doesn't know that with the speed of cavalry, two days is enough to run out of a distance that the princes can no longer catch up." Raising his head, he looked at the starry sky, and in the sky, a meteor happened to pass by, and the light was dazzling and extraordinary, but it made Zhao Cen sweat profusely: "Lao Tzu is also going to run away, and I can't see the sun tomorrow." ”
That night, when the coalition army stopped attacking for a day, Zhao Cen took two hundred horsemen with his henchmen and went north out of the tiger prison, looking at Chang'an without looking back.
The next day, when the coalition army started a new day of attack, the Xiliang army suddenly found that the defender Zhao Cen had already disappeared, and it was chaotic.
There was no resistance in the Tiger Prison Pass, and the coalition forces drove straight into the Tiger Prison and took the opportunity to occupy the Tiger Prison. Zhuge Jin knew that Dong Zhuo had given up the Tiger Prison Pass, so Luoyang must be in a catastrophe.
Since he learned that Dong Zhuo withdrew his troops, brought Emperor Xian and 100 officials to move the capital to Chang'an, guessed that the Tiger Prison would be conquered soon, and the worry of being cut off from the back road went to him, he quickly gathered his subordinates and led the troops and horses to Luoyang.
When Sun Jian arrived, when Dong Zhuo left the soldiers and horses to set fire, Sun Jian ordered people to kill and disperse the Xiliang soldiers on the one hand, and ordered people to fight the fire and save people on the other.
When the coalition army arrived, Sun Jian had just extinguished the fire and welcomed everyone into the station, so he talked about Luoyang and scolded Dong thief, but in the face of the temptation of Luoyang City, the princes were unwilling to march again, so they stopped in Luoyang City.
I don't know what Cao Cao thought, he continued to follow his own trajectory, and led the army to chase after him alone, but the result can be imagined, he was ambushed by Li Ru and almost all the troops were wiped out. When I returned to Luoyang, I saw a group of princes enjoying themselves peacefully, and there was a thick disdain in the depths of my eyes, leaving a famous saying for the ages: "The erector is not enough and the plan!" "I went to Yangzhou.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed, the intrigue between the princes has become more serious, Gongsun Zan saw that things could not be done, took Liu Bei and the three brothers, returned to Youzhou, passed through the plains, and made it a plain phase, so he took the remnants of Bai Ma Yi from the self-defense to the ground, licking the wounds.
After a few days, the logistics and supplies of the princes could not keep up, and in order to compete for food and grass, the contradictions between the several people intensified again.
One night, Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, led his troops to attack Qiao Mao, the Taishou of Dongjun, killed him, surrendered his people, and took the grain and grass to lead the troops to Yanzhou. Later Sun Jian was in a dry well in the palace, got the jade seal, hid it and did not report it, swore a gamble, and also led the troops away. Yuan Shao was not angry, so he wrote a letter to Liu Biao, the assassin of Jingzhou, saying Yunyun, and then Liu Biao intercepted and killed Sun Jian, so far, the two have a grudge.
At this time, Yuan Shao saw that everyone was scattered, and then looked at Luoyang, which had turned into ruins, and led the soldiers and horses to pull out the village, and went back to Jizhou. When the rest of the people saw this, they pulled out the village one after another, and each went back to his place. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the most huge alliance was dispersed in a hurry, and at this point, no one in the world drew their swords for the Han court, and officially fell into the era of world disputes and princes.
Yanzhou, Mount Tai. After the coalition army dispersed, Zhuge Jin led the military horse back to Mount Tai, and immediately went to see Tai Shici and Li Dian who returned from Luoyang.
"Ziyi, Mancheng, how did Luoyang and his party gain?" In the lobby, Zhuge Jin cordially took the hands of the two and asked them to sit down.
Li Dian listened, and the thief smiled: "Brother, we have gained a lot this time, Luoyang is in chaos, so I separated from Ziyi, and robbed some of the royal collection and some of the books of some wealthy families, a total of 100 carts, if it weren't for the help of the Zhen family, just trying to transport it back would make the two of us have a headache to death." ”
"Lord, this time it was possible thanks to Mancheng's plan, otherwise, just a few hundred of us would have been submerged if we bubbled up in Luoyang City." Tai Shici interjected and asked for credit for Li Dian.
"Hehe, Mancheng will also use the plan, yes, I've grown up!" Zhuge Jin smiled, patted Li Dian's shoulder, and embarrassed Li Dian with a word, his face blushed.
After laughing for a moment, Li Dian glanced left and right, and leaned his head close to Zhuge Jin's side, his eyes full of ambiguity: "Brother, I have snatched a lot of good things for my brother this time." ”
"Huh?" Zhuge Jin had doubts on his face, not understanding what Li Dian said.
"Ahem......" Tai Shici coughed dryly, turned his head and didn't look at the two, but his head was tilted towards the two of them, obviously very concerned about this matter.
"Hehe......" Before he could speak, Li Dian smiled again: "This time, Ziyi and I looted the palace maids in the palace, and before the Xiliang army entered the palace, we robbed all the beautiful women in the palace, and by the way, we also snatched out dozens of little eunuchs, just for the sisters-in-law to use." ”
Zhuge Jin listened, with a black line, feeling that this kid is not very old, and he thinks a lot: "Huh? Zhuge Jin pondered, nodded, and said in a thoughtful manner: "Well, Mancheng's age is not young, and he has also reached the age of marriage, this time you will pick two of these palace maids first, and I will ask my mother to help you pay attention to a family affair when I turn around, how about it?" ”
After Li Dian heard this, he was even more embarrassed, his face turned red, but he didn't say anything against it, but his eyes lit up: "This is what my brother said, then I really want to pick it, hehe......"
In the next few days, Zhuge Jin found Liu Wei and Concubine Tang in the crowd, did not say anything, and ordered someone to isolate the two and take care of them alone, so he did not say anything more.
In 190 AD, the second year when Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an, a large number of envoys set out from Chang'an one after another and went to various places. Soon after, news came out everywhere: Yuan Shao was named Bohai Taishou, Cao Cao was named Chen Liutaishou, Zhuge Jin was named Langya Taishou, Gongsun Zan was named Pingbei General, Lingyuyang Taishou, Yuan Shu was named Nanyang Taishou, Liu Yu was named Youzhou Mu, Tao Qian was named Xuzhou Mu, Kong Uranium was named Yuzhou Mu, Han Fu was Jizhou Mu, etc.
A series of rewards brought together those who had the potential to grow and had contradictions with each other, and once again, pulled the already stable situation in various parts of the world into tension.
Mount Tai, Zhuge Jin handed over everything to Xi Zhong to deal with, so he took Li Dian and others, returned to Langya to prepare for his post, and brought Liu Wei and a few people with him.
