Luo Xiao rode on the ink qilin, slowly put away the big bow in his hand, and several figures were nailed to the ground, bleeding blood.

His gaze fell on the corpses of the men.

The so-called glory and wealth, the so-called power and weight, what is it in the face of life and death?

It's just a skeleton that will eventually decay!

He cast his gaze from Gongxian across the mountains and rivers to Luoyang City, where the emperors and ministers of the Han Dynasty were among them.

If you have the power to dominate the world, will there be any exceptions?

This defeat was really too miserable, the battle of Handan, which was known as the death of Qin in World War I, although the general trend had already gone after the battle, but at that time, in addition to Liu Bang, the princes' coalition army was still more than a thousand miles away from Xianyang, the capital of Qin.

But what about Gong County to Luoyang?

One hundred miles!

If this distance were to be forced to march rapidly, it could almost be called an overnight approach.

This is the reason why Liu Bei and others are reluctant to return to Luoyang, maybe they have just entered Luoyang City in front, and the next moment Luoyang City is besieged by Zhang Jiao's Taiping army.

Luoyang City is naturally not an empty city, and it is impossible for the emperor to let Huangfu Song take all the troops away.

There are still enough troops in the city to guard Luoyang, Luoyang is designed by King Su according to the city that does not fall, and after successive repairs, Bai Qi personally led the army to attack for a long, long time before breaking the city.

It stands to reason that it is impossible for the Taiping army to break through in a short period of time, and once the time drags on for a long time, there will be changes in the world.

The strength of the Taiping army lies in Luo Xiao alone, Luo Xiao is dragged in Luoyang, and the Taiping army in the rest of the directions will be slowly pacified.

In the end, the princes of the Han court were able to take turns to fight with the general trend of the world.

But as I said before, the general trend of the world lies in the hearts of the people, such a tragic defeat, under the panic of the people, can Luoyang City really be able to hold it?

Luo Xiao looked at the Han soldiers who were scattered and fleeing on the battlefield, looked at the bones all over the mountains, looked at the big sun that fell from the middle of the sky to the mountains, and felt the heat that gradually converged, just like the national strength of the Han Dynasty, it gradually entered the sunset West Mountain, and was divided into the bottomless abyss.

Click.

Zhang Yan and other high-level officials of Taiping Dao gathered around him, and Luo Xiao suddenly asked excitedly, "Do you know why the Han army suddenly collapsed?" ”

This question is not only unclear to Huangfu Song, but also to the commanders of these Taiping Army.

Although the Taoist Lord is invincible, no matter how you look at the alliance of the princes, it will not suddenly collapse like this, there are elite soldiers, there are fierce generals and fierce generals, and there is no problem with delaying it for at least a year and a half.

But almost all the princes suddenly turned their faces at the same time, rushing to flee, for fear that they would be left behind by others.

Luo Xiao didn't sell Guan Zi and said directly: "Do you remember when I once said what we are going to do?

Let everyone in the world know that Han Ting's destiny has been lost.

This defeat was that the hearts of the princes of the Han court were shaken, and those who fled felt that the Han court might really die.

So they did not hesitate to leave the emperor of Luoyang behind, this is the general trend of people's hearts.

Just as the reason why you fought bravely to kill the enemy, aren't you excited in your hearts, and you can clearly feel that Han Ting is really going to be defeated in our hands? ”

When Zhongqu Shuai heard what Luo Xiao said, his face was full of surprise, but thinking back to his heart, it was really like this.

Guan Hai asked directly: "Dao Master, do we want to march directly and attack Luoyang?" ”

The eyes of all the Qu Shuai lit up, and Luo Xiao just asked, "Do the soldiers under your command still have the energy to afford a rapid march of 100 miles, and then go into battle?" ”

As soon as Luo Xiao's words came out, the Zhongqu Shuai knew that it was impossible, they had already experienced a whole day of fighting, and now the soldiers did not allow them to march in a hurry and then fight with the army defending the city in Luoyang.

If you are a little careless, you may even lose the whole game, the Taoist master is invincible in the battle, not able to charge against the rain of arrows, that is something that only heaven and man can do.

Luo Xiao knew that there was an artifact in the family that could achieve this effect.

[Soldier Speed: It can increase the marching speed of a legion of no more than 50,000 people by 30% without consuming more physical strength. 】

It's a pity that this artifact is not even in the family now.

The generals dispersed to clean up the battlefield, treat the wounded in the Taiping army, and then lit a fire on the battlefield, but because they were too tired and the corpses were not as easy to burn as in the canyon, they only burned a little.

The sky gradually darkened, and Luo Xiao stood in the camp, looking at the sky with his hands in his hands.

The starry sky is still so bright, the stars in the sky are gradually twinkling, and the Milky Way composed of countless stars is like a band of light, hanging in the starry sky.

Among the stars in the sky, there is one called Zhang Jiao.

"Zhang Jiao, Zhang Jiao!"

Luo Xiao couldn't help but recall that the only person who could be called his friend, a strange person, a mortal who was able to communicate the destiny of heaven, and finally put his life on the line in order for Luo Xiao to break the destiny of the Han Dynasty.

"The final ending is coming, the Han court in the sky has perished, and the Han court on the earth is about to fall, but unfortunately you can't see this scene.

But at least your life and mine are not in vain. ”

A certain star in the starry sky seemed to be brighter, and the bright moonlight shone from the starry sky, shining softly on Luo Xiao's body.

……

After the Taiping army's victory, it was considered whether it could directly break Luoyang City, so it was necessary to consider the problem of physical strength, but those who retreated did not care about the problem of physical strength.

The army of the princes who retreated from Gongxian fled in all directions, especially those princes' armies, Lu Bu and Zhang Liao did not expect that the other princes would be so shameless and flee directly.

Are you also a warrior from the border county?

Are you also despised by the emperor and the minister?

I, Lu Bu, am a courtier of Ding Yuan's expedition, and it is reasonable not to give my life to the emperor.

How can you do this, O Hanlu?

Lu Bu and Zhang Liao scolded their mothers in their hearts, and the war horses under their crotches sped up a little, and after breaking through from the left side, they were preparing a big detour to kill back to the Chinese army to pick up their father-in-law Ding Yuan.

As a result, he saw Zhang Jiao kill Huangfu Song with one blow, Lu Bu and Zhang Liao immediately applauded in their hearts, and the next scene was that Zhang Jiao killed all the slow princes to the ground with one arrow.

Ding Yuan is among them!

There is no way now, Lu Bu and Zhang Liao glanced at each other, let's slip away, go back to Merge Prefecture directly!

So with Lu Bu as the leader, the wolf rode and turned around, and went directly to Bingzhou, not getting involved in the affairs of the Central Plains.

These princes, especially the princes who went out of the surrounding towns, such as Youzhou, Bingzhou, Liangzhou, or Sili Guanzhong, all returned to their old places and could hide for a day.

But there are still many people fleeing to Luoyang, which is a huge transit point that extends in all directions to all parts of the world.

The 100-mile road from Gongxian to Luoyang was crowded with dense people, and the vast majority of them were defeated soldiers who had lost their armor and abandoned their armor.

The largest of them was the Western Regions Army led by Luo Kong, which was one of the few armies that could still maintain a whole size at this time.

In this kind of escape, the advantage of having many and good horses is manifested, and they rush in front of the vast majority of deserters at a gallop.

……

After a whole night of marching, Luokong finally arrived outside Luoyang City at dawn, how could such an army of more than 10,000 people suddenly appear outside Luoyang City?

The Luoyang soldiers defending the city closed the gates of Luoyang City almost in a short period of time, and when Luokong arrived at Luoyang City, he was faced with all the gates tightly closed.

Seeing this, Luo Kong immediately said: "Raise the Great Xuan and tell Luoyang City that it is the Wushuang Marquis of the Western Regions, the princes' alliance army is defeated, and the Taiping Army is approaching, and the Wushuang Marquis will enter the palace to meet the emperor." ”

As the banners of Wushuang and Luozi were raised, the general at the head of Luoyang City was a little relieved, but the news that came immediately afterwards made him shiver all over his body, standing on top of the city and shouting: "Prince, Rong Bei will go to report to Your Majesty!" ”

A knight rushed from the city gate guards towards the palace, Luo Kong waited anxiously, now it was a race against time, and he couldn't tell when his brother would lead the army to catch up.

Before the knight stumbled to the palace, he reported the news, such a shocking news, and he went all the way into the palace.

The emperor had even just woken up, if it wasn't Chang Shi who interrupted his rest, I'm afraid it would already be a corpse now, "Your Majesty, Gongxian was defeated, Taiwei was killed in battle, the Taiping army was about to arrive under Luoyang City, and now Wushuang Hou is leading more than 10,000 Western Regions Iron Cavalry, just outside Luoyang City." ”

As he spoke, he handed the battle report written by Luo Kong to the emperor, and the emperor immediately became a spirit when he heard the words.

Huangfu Song is dead?

The army defeated?

Boundless fear instantly hit his heart, he trembled and unfolded the battle report, only after reading a few lines of the emperor, he couldn't grasp the battle report, and fell directly, his voice trembled a little, "Quickly invite the Wushuang Marquis into the palace, and then summon the ministers into the palace." ”

The Iron Cavalry of the Western Regions naturally could not enter the city, and after a night's trekking, now the people and horses were tired, so they camped directly on the spot, ready to rest, after all, there was still a long way to go.

Luo Kong rode the sweaty horse he brought from the Western Regions, took off his helmet and heavy armor and walked into Luoyang City, before entering the palace, he took off all his weapons according to the regulations, and took off his shoes before going to the palace.

After Luo Kong entered the hall, he saw that the ministers were already kneeling on the seats, all looking at themselves, these ministers were dressed in red robes, and they were all well-dressed when they looked over, but Luo Kong knew that at least half of them were guilty of the country and society.

The emperor sat at the top, and a trace of disgust flashed in Luo Kong's eyes, this emperor and those ministers who were vegetarian had made the world what it is now.

Everyone looked at Luo Kong, Luo Kong's face was still covered with blood and sweat that had just come off the battlefield, and even though his hair was tied, there were still strands of hair hanging down.

Embarrassed!

This is the first word that flashed in everyone's hearts, if it weren't for the holy mark in the center of the eyebrows, who would have seen that the embarrassed person in front of him was Luo's son?

"General Chenxiao, Wushuang Marquis pays a visit to Your Majesty."

Luo Kong bowed, and the emperor hurriedly asked Luo Kong to calm down, and then asked anxiously: "Qing, is Gongxian really as defeated as you said in your battle report?" ”

Luo Kong nodded and said, "It's all over it!"

This battle was like the battle of Handan at the end of Qin, the main force was almost annihilated, and the princes of King Qin scattered and fled, and I am afraid that it would be impossible to gather so many troops in a year or two. ”

Rumble!

The hall instantly resounded with a cacophony of noise, and the faces of the ministers in the hall were all extremely anxious, and they were saying something, but they didn't know what they were talking about.

Luo Kong's words completely shattered the luck in everyone's hearts, that Zhang Jiao really defeated the army of the imperial court, and really broke the coalition army of the princes of the world.

It's like the battle of Handan at the end of Qin!

Is this the death of the Great Han?

Countless thoughts rolled in the emperor's heart, and in the end he could only sigh and say, "What can I do about it?" ”

What should I do now?

Luo Kong didn't want to talk nonsense with the emperor and the full court of ministers here, so he immediately asked urgently: "Your Majesty, for the sake of today's plan, Luoyang City can't stay."

There are still more than 10,000 people under the command of the minister, there are still elite soldiers in this Luoyang City, and there are guards in the palace, so they should immediately pack up and go to Chang'an.

Chang'an is the land of four stops, when the Qin State relied on the Cuihan Tian to block the alliance of the six countries, now the Qinhan Valley Pass is not as dangerous as it was back then, but it is still easy to defend and difficult to attack.

As long as you can hold Guanzhong, the Han will not die!

The Taiping army will come to the city at any time, and if you don't hurry up, as soon as the Taiping army arrives, it will be too late to leave again.

Where are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and all the princes? Please call them out. ”

Luo Kong's words made the emperor startled and left Luoyang City?

This is the capital of the gods built by King Su!

And as soon as he leaves Luoyang, it is equivalent to giving up the entire east of Cuihan to the Taiping Army, how can Chang'an, a remote and bitter cold place, be compared with Luoyang.

But thinking about it again, there is really no other way but to leave Luoyang City now, and at least one life can be left behind if you flee to Chang'an.

The emperor hurriedly said: "The crown prince is still in the East Palace, and the second son is also in the palace, so let the palace people call him over, Wushuang Hou, if I go to Chang'an, can I guarantee safety on the road?"

It's a long way from Luoyang to Chang'an, what do I need to do? ”

Both the Chang attendant and the ministers in the palace said: "Wushuang Hou, I don't know what I need to prepare, what can I take away?" ”

Luo Kong knew what the emperor, the permanent attendant, and the minister wanted to ask, these people just wanted to know how much money they could take away, after all, these people had quite a lot of money in Luoyang City, and now they had to give up some of them in order to escape for their lives, but if they gave up all of them, they would naturally be unwilling.

But Luo Kong just smiled coldly in his heart, not to mention the goods, most of the people here, he was not ready to bring them!

————

The Han army died in the four wildernesses, and the corners looked at the eight wildernesses, and there was no enemy, but laughed wildly with the crowd and said: "The Han army is gone, Luoyang is close at hand, the clouds and mist disappear, and the light is seen." ”

When I heard this, I was quite emotional, and I had to say: Go forward to Luoyang, and see the light through the clouds! - "Heroes of the Late Han Dynasty"
