The three countries are very nuclear

Chapter 164 Trends of the parties

"Why not?"

When He Jin saw that Cao Cao was from an eunuch, he sneered in his heart and asked impatiently.

Cao Cao was so absorbed in thinking about the question just now that he didn't notice He Jin's wink.

"General, the calamity of eunuchs has existed since ancient times. You only need to make the best use of the situation and kill the chief culprit to calm it down." Cao Cao advised, "One jailer can accomplish things, why bother mobilizing troops. On the other hand, look at those local generals and let them enter the capital." It's easy, but it's hard to get them out."

Frankly speaking, what Cao Cao said is indeed reasonable, but from the perspective of He Jin and Yuan Shao, it naturally cannot be established.

Lieutenant Jian Shuo of the Shangjun Academy has soldiers and horses in his hands. If he is not willing to capture them without a fight, how can he deal with them easily.

Furthermore, due to their physical advantages, these eunuchs were able to accompany the emperor for a long time, and they were the most trusted people of the emperor.

With such a good opportunity right now, if the eunuchs cannot be completely eliminated, when the emperor grows up in the future, he will continue to favor the eunuchs...

The extermination of Dou's family is vivid, how can He Jin not be worried.

"Meng De's words are exaggerated." He Jin sneered, "These eunuchs have disrupted the government and committed a heinous crime. If they don't kill them all, how can they rectify people's hearts and clear the sea!"

"General..."

Cao Cao wanted to say more, but He Jin waved his hand to stop him.

"A decision has been made. An imperial edict is issued to summon Dong Zhongying and Ding Jianyang to lead the army into Beijing to punish the eunuchs!"

Seeing that He Jin adopted his strategy, Yuan Shao couldn't help but smile slightly, his face full of complacency.Then he glanced at Cao Cao again and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.

Meng De, you still think too simply...

Seeing that He Jin, who was originally indecisive, became self-willed, Cao Cao could only sigh and say yes.

Once these local generals with heavy troops in their hands enter Beijing, I am afraid that the whole world will suffer catastrophe.

Cao Cao sighed inwardly.

……

Hongnong Lake County.

Although it was a dark night, Dong Zhuo still ordered his soldiers to march quickly without stopping for a moment.

He Jin's edict had just been issued, but Dong Zhuo left two days ago.

When the news of Liu Hong's death came out, Yuan Kai of the Yuan family in Runan took action.

He ordered Ren Xingye to gallop to see Dong Zhuo, and ordered Dong Zhuo to lead his troops into Beijing immediately to make a big deal happen.

Dong Zhuo was overjoyed when he received the letter, and immediately invited Li Ru to discuss when to leave.

Li Ru believed that this was just a private message sent by the Patriarch of the Yuan family and did not represent the imperial edict, so he suggested that Dong Zhuo should first bring three thousand elites and set off immediately.

As for the army behind you, you can move forward slowly. When the imperial edict comes down, the army has already reached the surrounding area of ​​Luoyang, and can enter the capital at any time.

"Speed ​​up!" Dong Zhuo waved the whip in his hand and shouted, "If there are any laggards, cut them off!"

This is the best time to march troops into Luo and seize supreme power, how could Dong Zhuo let it go.

What is the life of a mere soldier!
Although Dong Zhuo's order was cruel, Li Ru beside him nodded his head, quite agreeing with it.

Right now is the critical moment, you must not relax, as long as you enter Luoyang, the entire empire is in your hands!
Fortunately, these soldiers are all elite frontier troops who have fought with Dong Zhuo for many years, and they can withstand such a high-intensity march for a while.

"Wenyou, how far is it from Luoyang?"

In the darkness, Dong Zhuo asked by the light of the torch.

Li Ru counted the time and said, "Dong Gong, half an hour ago, our army just entered Hongnong's territory, and it should be less than four hundred miles away from Luoyang."

Hearing this, Dong Zhuo nodded solemnly.

Four hundred miles...

Even if I brought all the cavalry, I am afraid it will take three days to arrive.

In order to ensure the speed of the march, Dong Zhuo decisively abandoned the baggage.

But even so, marching 130 miles a day is already the limit speed, and it is also the fastest marching speed in this era.

Moreover, after arriving in Luoyang, they had to rest for a while, otherwise, even the elite of Liangzhou would not have much fighting power left after three days of rapid march.

"Order, after another half an hour, the whole army will rest."

Dong Zhuo waved his hand and said loudly.

In fact, Dong Zhuo is not the only one who is anxious...

At the junction of Sili and Yanzhou, there is a former Wu County.

At this moment, Ding Yuan is marching here with [-] Bingzhou troops.

He originally led his troops to quell the Yellow Turban in Yanzhou, but he received an imperial edict before he entered the boundary of Yanzhou.

As soon as he saw the edict, Ding Yuan immediately smelled the opportunity inside.

It is a great thing to support soldiers into Luo!
Without delay at the moment, he sent an order to go to Luoyang.

Although he set off a few days later than Dong Zhuo, but luckily the distance was shorter than Dong Zhuo's. After a day's march, the distance between him and Luoyang was almost the same as Dong Zhuo's.

When resting at night, Ding Yuan called his subordinates Lu Bu, Zhang Yang and others over.

Ding Yuan said with a smile: "Feng Xian, the general worshiped a certain Jin Wu as Zhi Jin Wu. After entering Beijing this time, we will no longer have to endure the bitter cold in Bingzhou."

Hearing this, Lu Bu smiled and cupped his hands, "Congratulations, my lord!"

He, Ding Yuan, was granted the title of Jinwu, so he, the chief bookkeeper in the army, was second only to Ding Yuan in the Bingzhou Army, and he would naturally rise with the tide.

Therefore, Lu Bu's compliment was sincere.

Born in Bingzhou since he was a child, Lu Bu yearned for the prosperous Luoyang.

And since he went to Luoyang and really felt the prosperity of Luoyang, Lu Bu couldn't stay any longer when he returned to Bingzhou.

Especially the time when Lin Chao hosted a banquet for him, it was even more unforgettable for him.

The current Lu Bu only wants to break into Luoyang, the paradise of his dreams, and never return to Bingzhou, a place where no birds shit.

Ding Yuan talked with the people for a while, and then told them to go to rest, so as not to delay the march tomorrow.

After all, the imperial edict clearly stated that besides him, Dong Zhuo was called into Luoyang together with him.

The one who arrives first will naturally reap the greatest benefits, and he doesn't want to be preempted by Dong Zhuo.

……

No matter how Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan chased each other, the army led by Guan Yu was the first to reach Luoyang.

Liu Bei's army was stationed in Hedong, the closest to Luoyang.

After Liu Bei entered Beijing, Guan Yu followed closely behind. Even if the marching speed was not fast, he had already crossed Henan County at this moment, and saw the majestic and vigorous Luoyang City.

"Military division, if you go any further, you will already be in Luoyang's territory."

After nightfall, Guan Yu didn't feel like sleeping. When he went out to inspect the camp, he happened to meet Xun You who was also awake.

Xun You smiled and said, "Yun Chang is worried about the Lord?"

Guan Yu nodded, and said, "Naturally, I am worried about my brother's safety, but at this moment, our army is too close to Luoyang."

How could Guan Yu, who violated a big taboo by leading troops to approach Luoyang without authorization, sleep peacefully.

"You don't have to worry about Yun Chang, you just want to let the court know that our army has arrived in Luoyang." Xun You explained, "In this way, the safety of the lord can be guaranteed. The more soldiers we have, the safer the lord will be."

"What the military adviser said is that someone is worrying too much."

Xun You shook his head and smiled, "It's no wonder Yun Chang is worried. After all, as the leader of an army, he naturally has to take into account the overall situation. Having this worry shows that Yun Chang is a natural general."

"The military adviser is absurdly praised, and I am ashamed."

Hearing Xun You's praise, Guan Yu stroked his beard despite being modest, obviously caring about Xun You's praise.

Although Guan Yu is proud, he still respects those who recognize him.

Guan Yu is also very concerned about the evaluation of those who approve.

While the two were walking and chatting, Lin Xi led a hundred elites from the school affairs office to the army.

"Zixu, why are you here?" Guan Yu asked.

Lin Xi didn't explain, but just said:

"My lord ordered Yun Chang to lead the whole army to Luoyang!"
