Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 123 Entering Luoyang 1
Gongsun Xu hurried on the road, hoping to get to Luoyang quickly.Although he had already guessed that Dong Zhuo would move the capital, he didn't expect Dong Zhuo to act so quickly. He thought it would be delayed for ten days and a half months, but he didn't want Dong Zhuo to run away overnight.

Just when Gongsun Xu was fifty miles away from Luoyang, on the other side, Sun Jian was about to arrive at Luoyang with five hundred cavalry.Since Sun Jian set off from Sishui Pass, he and Gongsun Xu did not follow the same path.

An hour later, Sun Jian and Gongsun Xu entered from the south gate and east gate of Luoyang successively. The first thing Gongsun Xu thought of after entering Luoyang was not to go to the imperial palace. Homes, however, are disappointingly empty.Gongsun Xu didn't find the person he was looking for either.

However, except for some treasuries that were turned over, other places were in order. It seemed that Lu Zhi and the others left in a hurry.

However, due to Dong Zhuo's haste to retreat, he only forcibly took away Lu Zhi and Cai Yong, and also casually snatched away their belongings. As for other things, Dong Zhuo's soldiers had not had time to snatch them.

After Gongsun Xu failed to find anyone, he immediately ordered: "Dong Zhuo must have retreated a long time ago. Everyone, in a team of ten, was scattered throughout the city. If you encounter scattered soldiers from the Xiliang Army, you can surrender if you can, but you can't. shoot to kill.

In addition, leave 200 people to organize the things of my master and my father-in-law's house, especially pay attention to books, which are more precious than gold and silver, so be careful.Also, send 500 people to search for me when they come across the houses of aristocratic families. If there are books or other things, they must find a way to get them back. I would rather not lose the books than gold and silver.

Zhao Yun, take 500 people with me into the palace to have a look, and Yide stays in charge of collecting books in the city.Do you understand? "

"Understood." Everyone roared in unison.

Just when Gongsun Xu had just stepped on his horse and walked a few steps, a messenger rushed to report and said: "Report, General, General Guan Yu has arrived with five thousand cavalry."

"Five thousand? Hahahaha, well, my father is still very concerned about me, and even sent me more troops. Ziyi, you go to meet Yun Chang quickly, and let him bring 3000 people to the palace to join me, and the rest They are all responsible for collecting books and killing the remnants of the Xiliang army in the city."

Tai Shici led his people to leave immediately, and Gongsun Xu didn't delay any longer, so he led his people to rush to the palace first.

However, when he was less than five miles away, there was a burst of black smoke from the direction of the palace, and Gongsun Xu said angrily: "No, I'm still late, so hurry up and be sure to beat the palace before it burns down." Put out the fire."

Everyone was even more inconsiderate of the horsepower now, and when Gongsun Xu and others arrived at the gate of the palace, when Gongsun Xu and others arrived at the gate of the palace, Gongsun Xu heard the sound of killing from the palace. Zhao Yun immediately led his own soldiers to kill him. It was when Sun Jian led his men to kill the hundreds of people Dong Zhuo left behind to set fire, he shouted: "Changshan Zhao Zilong is here, my master Hussar General has led his army to kill, you should surrender quickly."

Gongsun Xu also heard Zhao Yun's roar outside, so he immediately yelled in cooperation: "All the soldiers, let me kill them all, and leave no one behind..."

At this time, Sun Jian also led the army to roar and charge. The hundreds of Xiliang soldiers couldn't figure out the situation for a while, but seeing the fierce Jiangdong soldiers in front of them, and the Youzhou army that was about to kill outside, these Xiliang soldiers also Terrified, within a quarter of an hour of fighting, this group of people surrendered.

Gongsun Xu didn't have time to deal with these captives. What he cared about was the palace, so Gongsun Xu ordered: "Go and put out the fire as quickly as possible. Anyone who is good at fighting the fire will be saved from death. If there are other outstanding performances, I will definitely have them." A heavy reward, otherwise, there will be no mercy."

It has to be said that Gongsun Xu's deterrent power is still there. Most of these Xiliang troops chose to surrender to Gongsun Xu, so they were willing to carry out Gongsun Xu's orders. Also busy all of a sudden.

Sun Jian was naturally not far behind, and he immediately led his troops to fight the fire in another direction.Soon, Guan Yu led his men to arrive, and the fire was quickly brought under control.

Seeing that the palace was not burned down much, Gongsun Xuxuan finally let go of his heart.At this time, Gongsun Xu grabbed a lieutenant of the Xiliang Army and asked, "Tell me, has Dong Zhuo removed the books from the library in the palace?"

"Back,,, back,,, back to the general, the prime minister left in a hurry, and only took away all the valuable gold and silver in the palace. As for those books, many brothers went in and looked through them, but they didn't find anything valuable. So I didn't take anything away." The captain replied in fear.

"Really? Hahahaha, okay, okay. Come on, take me there. If the books in Zangshuge are preserved intact, I will give you a great credit." Gongsun Xu said excitedly after hearing this.

Then, Gongsun Xu turned to Zhao Yun, and Guan Yu and the two said: "Leave 300 people to patrol the palace, and the rest of them will follow me to sort out the books, and remove all the books in the Zangshu Pavilion as soon as possible. Everyone is called in."

After Zhao Yun and the others heard this, they immediately led the people to follow Gongsun Xu to the library. In fact, they didn't understand why Gongsun Xu cared so much about books at this time. So many people moved books in the palace.

However, Zhao Yun and Guan Yu never doubted Gongsun Xu's orders, especially at such a critical juncture, they would only faithfully implement them.

Soon, everyone came to the library under the leadership of the captain. Gongsun Xu walked in first. He saw that many books were thrown on the ground, but not many were damaged or destroyed.There is a lot of confusion.

Looking at such a book library and so many books, Gongsun Xu smiled and said: "Hahahaha, God treats me well, God treats me well, hurry up, be careful, don't break the book, and don't put the The order is messed up, these are things more precious than gold and silver."

Many soldiers showed puzzled expressions when they heard Gongsun Xu say that these books are more valuable than gold and silver, especially those Xiliang soldiers. In their opinion, they should look for gold, silver and jewelry in the palace at this time. Although the palace had already been raided by Dong Zhuo, there must still be a lot of valuables left behind.

However, Gongsun Xu had already ordered the death order, and naturally everyone would no longer object. At that moment, thousands of people were busy in Zangshu Pavilion.After more than an hour, the books in Zangshu Pavilion were moved less than two floors.

The books in this library are actually more bamboo slips, and many are cloth, so it is very troublesome to carry them. Fortunately, there are many people on Gongsun's side, otherwise, it would be really busy.

After working for another two hours, a messenger suddenly came over and said, "Report, the five thousand cavalry sent by General Zhou Mu and the six thousand cavalry sent by General Gao Lan under the leader's command and Cao Ren's six thousand cavalry under General Cao Cao arrived at the same time." , General Zhang Fei has led our army to occupy the east and north of the city, General Gao Lan has occupied the west of the city, General Sun Jian and General Cao Ren have each occupied a part of the south of the city, and the situation among the armies is a bit tense now."

Gongsun Xu frowned and said, "Yun Chang, you go and tell them not to mess around. Luoyang City is not suitable for large troops to be stationed. After the three parties enter the city, no other troops should enter the city. Otherwise, Luoyang will become more chaotic. If the troops of other princes arrive, let them be stationed outside the city.

In addition, go and warn Gao Lan and Cao Ren not to plunder the surviving people, otherwise our Youzhou army will turn their faces and deny them. No matter, but they must take good care of their own people. "

Guan Yu narrowed his eyes and nodded, "|Lord, don't worry, Yun Chang understands."

After speaking, Guan Yu led his two hundred soldiers and left.

Gongsun continued to leave Zhao Yun in charge of carrying the books, while he himself led 300 people to inspect other places in the palace.So far, only Sun Jian's 300 troops and several thousand of his subordinates have entered the palace. In addition, Sun Jian only occupied a part of the palace very wisely. Therefore, no one has visited other places in the palace. .

While patrolling, Gongsun Xu gave orders to the soldiers around him: "Send an order to Yide, let him lead three people into the palace, let Ziyi take charge of the camp, don't conflict with other people, the books in the palace may temporarily If you can’t move out, let Yide bring all the remaining war horses and move all the books to the carriage, ready to be transported away at any time.”

After finishing speaking, Gongsun Xu also felt that there was nothing more to order, so he sent the soldiers to deliver the order.

At this time, Gongsun Xu turned around and asked the Xiliang Military Academy Lieutenant who was following him: "You should know more about the palace than I do, so what places in the palace haven't been looted, take me to have a look." , from now on, you are my subordinate, understand?

After hearing this, the school lieutenant knew that Gongsun Xu had accepted him, so he replied excitedly: "Villain Wang Zhong, thank you General.

It is true that there are still many places in the palace that have not been looted by the Xiliang army. Those places were planned to be kept by the villain for his brothers, but we don't know what is inside.However, there should not be many things like gold, silver and jewelry. Those are all requested by the prime minister, and we dare not keep them privately. "

Gongsun Xu nodded in satisfaction. The school lieutenant named Wang Zhong was quite interesting, and he immediately recognized his position.It will be easier to do things this way.

At the moment, Gongsun Xu also comforted him: "It's okay, gold, silver and jewelry, Dong Zhuo will definitely not leave them to others, and I don't care, just take me to have a look. There are many things in the world that are It cannot be measured in gold or silver.

Forget it, you won’t understand after talking about it, anyway, you just need to remember, as long as you find something that I like, I will definitely reward you, don’t fool me with those unsightly gold and silver. "

The soldiers around Gongsun Xu and Wang Zhong all nodded their heads to express their understanding. They knew in their hearts that if they were really lucky to find something good at this time, and it happened that Gongsun Xu liked it, then they would be prosperous. , So, except for the fifty soldiers who protected Gongsun Xu, all the others went to look for treasures.
