Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 215 The Chaos After Dawn
A night of chaotic battles, the flames of war covered every corner of the capital, the sound of shouting and killing, the sound of hoofbeats, the sound of mourning... This confluence of war sonatas made the entire capital, from the civil and military officials to the small traffickers. disturbed.

But the night will pass, and the sound of war will die away.

The day finally dawned.

The cold rain that had been falling for a whole day and night gradually stopped.

Although the sun did not rise in the sky, the dark clouds had dissipated, and the darkness over Luoyang gradually dissipated. There was no cold rain, and the sky was not as clear as it looked. It was so dark, with a little more life.

The chaotic battle in Luoyang City gradually disappeared.

The western suburbs of Luoyang.

Only about twenty miles away from the Upper West Gate, there is a plain.

The name here is Sunset Pavilion.

Xiyang Pavilion is the place where the setting sun gathers. I heard that the sunset here is beautiful and you can see the scenery of burning clouds, so it is called the Xiyang Pavilion, and the Xiyang Pavilion is the place where Luoyang Gongqing said goodbye to Beijing.

A stone pavilion stands on the top of the mountain, surrounded by open space, condescending, connected to the roads in all directions, under the intersecting roads, standing in the middle, extending in all directions, and there are rivers passing through the surrounding, with sufficient water sources, it is very suitable for soldiers and horses to set up camp.

After leaving Luoyang City in a hurry, a group of exhausted soldiers and horses were exhausted and unable to go on their way, so they set up camp here, waiting for the situation in Luoyang City to change.

Outside the stone pavilion, soldiers in twos and threes were resting, back to back, in a circle. Doctors in the army walked around and bandaged the wounds of the wounded soldiers.

In the stone pavilion, the surrounding area is covered with sackcloth, bamboo mats have been spread on the ground, a desk, and a pot of wine is warmed.

He Jin's burly body was kneeling in the middle, his battle robe was quite messy, and the hair between his forehead was also very messy, looking a little messy. He took a sip of hot wine suddenly, and then calmed down the grievance in his heart: "He Jin of a certain family is the great general of the dynasty, under one person, above tens of thousands, but with a single thought, he is in such a state, hahaha, Your Majesty, I have failed you, and you have failed me too!"

He was originally a minister with power in his hands.

Overnight, he became a king-killing and rebellious minister. Everyone got it and punished him, and the world and the court were not tolerated.

This huge contrast made him a little uncomfortable.

And all this is because of the Son of Heaven.

The emperor's methods made him shudder. Even after the emperor's death, the smile before his death still echoes in his mind. The imprint is deeply rooted in his bones, and he will probably remember it in his sleep.

"Brother, the empress and the prince have settled down, and they will not be short of clothes or food!"

"Ok!"

He Jin nodded, his expression turned cold: "How about our casualties?"

"Father, I just counted them!" Northern Army Marquis He Xian cupped his hands and said.

"Say!"

"Three of the five major lieutenants of the Northern Army died in the battle, and only two survived. The commander of the military marquis suffered heavy casualties, and only 1 sons of soldiers remained under his command!"

"Crack!"

When He Jin heard the words, the wine cup in his hand was crushed abruptly, and a stern look burst out in his pupils: "I have tens of thousands of Beijun sons, and now only less than one-third of them are left, damn it!"

In the battle of Luoyang, he lost the first mover, lost his reputation, lost all morale, and the army's morale was in turmoil. Even if he used his power to forcefully break through, he still suffered heavy losses.

"Where are the elite soldiers from the West Garden?"

"Cao Cao has five thousand soldiers and horses, and Yuan Shu has ten thousand elite soldiers!"

"Kong Zhang!"

"exist!"

"You go and comfort the two of them for me. At this moment, the two must be at ease!" He Jin said in a deep voice.

At this moment, Xiyuan's elite soldiers are the ones to rely on.

"promise!"

As a counselor, Chen Lin followed closely when breaking through, and he immediately went down to appease Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others.

"Brother, although our tens of thousands of soldiers gathered here at the Sunset Pavilion, most of our weapons have been lost, and we have no food and grass supplies. We only have dry food for a few days, and we will run out of food in three days. We may not be able to carry it in five days!"

He Miao said worriedly.

"Send people to collect grain around here. If there is no food around here, go to Gucheng and Pingyin. We must find food supplies!"

"Yes!"

He Miao smiled wryly.

"Shu Da, I know it's hard, I'm sorry to trouble you, we have no other way now, the name of killing the king is known all over the world, there is no way to return to Luoyang, the soldiers and horses in Luoyang City are very strict in defending us, don't pursue us It’s because of the shortage of soldiers and horses, if Ding Yuan gathers and merges the main force of the prefecture, we may not escape a battle!”

He Jin smiled self-deprecatingly, and asked.

"Brother really killed His Majesty?"

He Miao asked suddenly.

"I said I didn't kill him, do you believe it?" He Jin smiled wryly.

"Whether I believe it or not, the world already believes it!"

He Miao replied.

"So now we have only one way to go to the dark!" He Jin's expression became resolute: "Support the prince to ascend the throne, and use force to suppress Luoyang City!"

"Support the crown prince to ascend the throne?"

He Miao's pupils flashed brightly, and he hesitated: "Brother, how can we make the crown prince rightfully enthroned in the current situation in the capital!"

"The most important thing is to have enough soldiers and horses!"

The corner of He Jin's mouth raised slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "There is only one way for a certain family to think about it!"

"what way?"

"Order immediately to summon Dong Zhuo to lead the troops into the capital. With the soldiers from Xiliang, they can help the crown prince ascend the throne. When the time comes to seize the capital, we can set up a court order and condemn the crimes. Everything can be overthrown and the world will still be in our hands!"

"Dong Zhuo?"

When He Miao heard this, his expression was shocked, and his eyes lit up: "If I remember correctly, he is the shepherd of Bingzhou, but he has not yet taken office. He has been stranded in Hedong on the grounds that Baibo Yellow Turban and the Huns blocked him, and he is only ten days away from us. If the journey goes well, it will take half a month!"

"Dong Zhongying has a heavy army in his hand, so he may not be willing to respect orders. Who will call him?"

He Jin hesitated.

"I heard that Dong Zhuo's younger brother, Dong Min is in the Northern Army, and he is the Captain of Fengche!" He Miao said, "Let him pass the order himself!"

"it is good!"

He Jin was overjoyed immediately, and said, "You immediately arrange for him to call Dong Zhuo in person, so that he can go to Beijing quickly!"

"The general can't!"

At this moment, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao came together and stopped them.

"At the beginning, Meng De, why not?" He Jin frowned.

"Grand General, when foreign soldiers and horses enter the capital, they will break the rules of the ancestors. Everyone in the court will impeach the general. No matter how difficult it is for the general to gain a foothold in the world, such a dangerous thing must not be done!" Cao Cao said, cupping his hands.

"Also, General, Dong Zhuo is a Xiliang tiger and wolf. If after entering Beijing, he holds a heavy army and disrespects orders, the General will not lead the wolf into the house!" Yuan Shao also said.

"You said it, so why don't you know it!"

He Jin said in a deep voice: "But now we have nowhere to go, and only Xiliang's elite soldiers can rescue us. The crown prince's ascension to the throne is orthodox. Don't you want to wait until the ten permanent servants support Liu Xie's son to ascend the throne, so as to cause chaos in the world?" Chao Gang?"

"General, this matter can still be discussed with Luo Yang, but once foreign soldiers and horses enter Beijing, the world will be chaotic, please think again!"

The two looked at each other bitterly, and said with cupped hands.

"I have made up my mind, you don't need to persuade me any more!"

He Jin said firmly.

A piece of order, with the Queen's Phoenix Seal and the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace Seal, made it logical for Dong Zhuo, known as the Great Demon King of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and his extremely elite soldiers from Xiliang to rush to the capital.

……

……

In Luoyang City.

The big battle last night was over, but this imperial city is still under martial law. One after another, clear notices have been pasted down, stipulating that every household closes its doors to thank guests and is not allowed to walk on the street. Otherwise, it will be regarded as a rioter and directly Kill.

In the North Palace, the soldiers of the Southern Army were clearing up the battlefield.

"Sima Fang!"

"exist!"

"All the soldiers from the Luoyang government office are out, and the order in the capital must be maintained!" Yuan Feng was very busy, he was busy cleaning up the mess, He Jin withdrew from Luoyang, and now Luoyang was in charge.

"promise!"

Sima Fang took the order and left.

"The situation is unpredictable, His Majesty is dead, He Jin has turned against him, how can I stabilize this court!"

Yuan Feng naturally couldn't sleep all night, and even now he didn't intend to rest. He kept reviewing the news from all directions, and some news in Luoyang City that people observed, all of which were gathered by him. .

"Master Sikong, Lord Taiwei is back!" A guard came to report.

"Please come in!"

"promise!"

The guards led Taiwei Lu Zhi in.

"Captain Lu!" Yuan Feng cupped his hands.

"Yuan Sikong!" Lu Zhi replied.

The two of them knew very well that with the changes last night, General He Jin had lost his foundation in the imperial court, and the ten permanent servants were kicked out like a dog.

Among the scholars, Yuan Feng is the main family of powerful families, and Lu Zhi and Wang Yun are the main members of Qingliu's poor family.

Basically Luo Yang is what they say.

But first they have to solve this mess.

The emperor is dead.

General He Jin turned into a traitor.

Luoyang's soldiers and horses fought in a melee.

This chaotic situation will definitely make the people of the imperial court shine.

The world cannot be chaotic.

"I don't know where Taiwei Lu can intercept the crown prince?" Yuan Feng asked, cupping his hands.

"After He Jinbing left the upper west gate, he traveled all the way west, and now he is stationed at the Xiyang Pavilion. The Xiyang Pavilion was originally easy to attack and difficult to defend. My soldiers and horses are not half as strong as his, so it is so difficult!" Lu Zhi shook his head.

After all, He Jin is a great general who has been in charge of the army for many years. He is not inferior to him in terms of marching strategy.

"He Jin kills the king, the world will know about it, and the world will definitely have a bright future. If the crown prince fails to ascend the throne smoothly, the world will be in chaos!"

Yuan Feng said gloomyly.

"I don't know!" Lu Zhi said: "It may be very difficult to take back the crown prince from He Jin. If there is a prince who can sit firmly in the capital, there is still a chance to stabilize the court, and slowly plan it!"

"Zhang Rang brought the prince out of the north gate, and now I'm afraid he's going to Beimang!" Yuan Fengdao: "I have already ordered the road to lead the troops to intercept and kill, and take advantage of the situation to solve the imperial cancer of the ten permanent servants!"

"I also asked Ding Yuan to divide his troops to pursue, and want to recover the Prince's Association!" Lu Zhi said.

"I just hope that Ding Yuan and Yuan Shu can stop him!"

Yuan Feng said.

"The northern boundary is not far from Shangdang. I have a way!" Lu Zhi said suddenly.

"any solution?"

"Let Ding Yuan summon the Bingzhou Army to enter the capital!" Lu Zhi said: "From the north down, you can go straight into the capital!"

His military strength is not enough to maintain order in the capital, and it is difficult to completely defeat He Jin. He can only rely on Ding Yuan. Ding Yuan holds the elite Northern Xinjiang Bingzhou Army in his hand.

"Ding Jianyang is trustworthy?" Yuan Feng narrowed his eyes slightly.

"That's the only way!" Lu Zhi said: "The layout of the capital is already in chaos. If we want to support the new king, we must destroy the rebel He Jin. He Jin holds the soldiers and horses. We can't do anything about it. Let's go!"

"Soldiers and horses from foreign vassals entering Beijing will definitely cause chaos in the world!"

Yuan Feng shook his head and still disagreed.
