Chapter Seventy-Two: Such Officers and Soldiers
Why did Zhang Miao enter the city first? It turned out that along the way, Zhang Lang, Sun Jian, and the other princes were constantly engaged in battles with the Xiliang army that was responsible for blocking them, so they all fell behind.
But this Zhang Miao played a slippery head, taking advantage of the opportunity of Zhang Lang and Sun Jian to entangle with their opponents, bypassed the battlefield, and rushed straight to Luoyang from the small road, so he arrived in Luoyang first.
Zhang Miao rode a horse to Zhang Liao, looked at him arrogantly, and said with a condescending attitude: "You are still an acquaintance, take the initiative to open the city gate and surrender, and I will spare your life!" ”
Zhang Liao felt very bad, was silent for a moment, and asked with a fist: "I don't know where the main army of the Yuan League is, and when will it arrive?" ”
Zhang Miao was immediately displeased, and asked rhetorically: "What is the purpose of asking this?" ”
Zhang Liao said: "The leader of the Yuan Alliance is the leader of the alliance, and the last general wants to meet him!" ”
Zhang Miao felt that the person in front of him clearly looked down on him, so he was very annoyed, and snorted heavily, and couldn't help but want to order his army to exterminate Zhang Liao and them.
But after thinking about it, Dong Zhuo fled in a hurry, maybe there were still a lot of gold and silver treasures left in Luoyang, Sun Jian and Yuan Mai and those people would arrive soon, and he couldn't waste his precious time on these people.
As soon as he thought of this, he raised his right hand and shouted at his troops: "Everyone listen to the order, search the whole city, give me more care, don't miss anything!" ”
Naturally, the officers and men under his command knew his intentions, and they all shouted their promises, and each of them exuded incomparable greed and excitement.
More than 20,000 men and horses immediately dispersed, either in groups of 1,000 or 100 people, and broke into all the mansions and houses, burned and looted.
Luoyang City was originally quite calm, but after Zhang Miao's army arrived, it immediately became boiling!
The cries of children, the screams of men, and the desperate cries of women resounded one after another, mixed with the laughter of Zhang Miao's officers and soldiers like excited jackals!
The glorious Luoyang seems to have turned into a purgatory on earth in an instant, and the murderous bandit army is wantonly destroying her!
Zhang Liao and the others were shocked and angry when they saw this scene, Zhang Liao led the army to block Zhang Miao, who was about to go to the palace, pointed at Zhang Miao with a big knife and shouted angrily: "Zhang Miao! What are you guys doing here?! Stop! ”
Zhang Liao and others, as the forbidden army in the capital, surrendered to Dong Zhuo before, in fact, because Dong Zhuo used the lives and safety of the people of Luoyang as a condition of exchange. Otherwise, how would Zhang Liao and the others surrender!
At this moment, seeing that this Miao army actually killed the people and looted the capital, he was naturally furious, and couldn't help but make a move!
When Zhang Miao saw that he was a surrendered general, although he dared to point a big knife at him, he was immediately furious and shouted: "You are so bold! Is this a rebellion? Get out of the way of me, or I'll tear you to pieces in an instant! ”
Zhang Liao laughed angrily and said angrily; "I thought that the alliance of princes represented the right path in the world, but it seems that I was wrong! You are more hateful than Dong Zhuo! Then he shouted at his officers and soldiers: "Brothers, kill these beasts!" ”
The officers and soldiers had long been angry and couldn't suppress it, and when they heard Zhang Liao's order, they immediately roared and killed the surrounding Zhang Miao army, like a tiger out of the cage!
Zhang Miao's combat strength was far inferior to the officers and soldiers under Zhang Liao's command, and they were suddenly killed and scattered!
Seeing this scene, Zhang Miao was shocked, and while hurriedly retreating to dodge, he ordered the scattered army to gather quickly to destroy Zhang Liao's army.
After receiving the order, Zhang Miao's troops hurried over, and many of them were still holding the young woman, which was the spoils they wanted to capture.
There are more and more Zhang Miao's troops gathered, and Zhang Liao's army is only two or three thousand people, although everyone sacrifices their lives to fight, but the situation is becoming more and more unfavorable. The sound of killing in the streets and alleys shook the sky, and one by one the soldiers were knocked down in a pool of blood by bandits who were several times their size.
Zhang Miao looked at the scene in front of him, with a cruel smile on his face, and scolded: "What a fool who doesn't know whether to live or die, he dares to go against me!" I'm going to cut you a thousand times today! ”
Zhang Liao wielded a big knife and fought fiercely with the five generals of the other side, and only the sword light flew wildly at the scene, and the murderous spirit was soaring!
Ten rounds away, Zhang Liao suddenly let out an earth-shattering roar, and at the same time, he swept towards the five enemy generals who were besieging him!
At this time, the big knife seemed to have skyrocketed to the size of two zhang, and it was an illusion formed by the condensation of majestic sword qi on the big knife, which was extraordinary, like the blade of gods and demons!
The five generals were shocked and hurriedly raised their weapons to resist!
However, the two-zhang broadsword phantom swept through the middle of the bodies of the five generals!
The scene was suddenly forbidden, and then the five generals showed infinite pain and screamed, and at the same time, their bodies and the weapons in their hands broke from them, and blood gushed out! Under the backdrop of this scene, Zhang Liaowei is like a god and a demon!
Zhang Miao, who was watching the battle from a distance, suddenly saw such a scene, and was so shocked that he almost lost his soul! He never dreamed that this enemy general who had just surrendered to him would be so terrifying, killing five fierce generals under his command in one fell swoop!
Zhang Liao looked at Zhang Miao fiercely, his eyes revealed a murderous aura as if he were substantial, shook his big knife, and rushed towards Zhang Miao on horseback.
Zhang Miao was shocked and hurriedly shouted: "Stop him!" Stop him! ……”
The officers and soldiers around came back to their senses and rushed forward with a loud shout.
Zhang Liao single-handedly broke into the enemy group, and the big knife swung out a bloody light in the air, and the enemy officers and soldiers who rushed to him were spilled on the spot with a knife and two blood, and no one was his general!
In the blink of an eye, Zhang Liao cut out of the enemy group, rushed to Zhang Miao like a tiger out of the cage, and roared angrily to launch a killing blow to Zhang Miao!
Zhang Miao was stunned in place, as if he had been stupid by the ferocity of the tiger wolf!
"Stop! Otherwise they all have to die!! At this moment, a rapid cry suddenly came from not far away.
Zhang Liao reined in his horse, followed the sound, and saw that Zhang Miao's army had actually used swords and guns to hold hundreds of people hostage. There were men, women, and children, and everyone was terrified to the extreme.
Zhang Liao was anxious and angry, pointed at Zhang Miao with a big knife and shouted: "Zhang Miao, do you still want to be shameless!?" ”
Zhang Miao came back to his senses, thinking of the terrible experience just now, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and his legs trembled.
After settling down, he saw that Zhang Liao was not far away, and he was extremely frightened, and hurriedly rode his horse back to retreat more than 20 steps away before stopping.
Zhang Miao looked at Zhang Liao, with a surge of hatred in his eyes, eager to cut Zhang Liao with a thousand knives.
Immediately, he noticed that Zhang Liao obviously cared about the lives of those people, and suddenly had confidence, and yelled at Zhang Liao: "Immediately abandon the sword and surrender!" Otherwise, kill these people! ”
Zhang Liao was trembling with anger, but the other party took so many people and threatened him, and he couldn't attack at all.
Zhang Miao had already seen that he had completely pinched the other party's weakness, and with a murderous and smug smile on his face, he yelled at his subordinates: "Cut down the front row!" ”
