Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 124 Entering Luoyang 2
Soon, the Xiliang Military Academy captain led Gongsun Xu and others into one house after another that had not been looted.However, apart from finding some more valuable items, Gongsun Xu didn't find anything exciting.

Seeing that there was no smile on Gongsun Xu's face, the captain of the Xiliang Military Academy was also anxious, and immediately asked: "I don't know what kind of treasure the lord likes, so the villain can look for it, otherwise, according to this method , I’m afraid we’ll have to search the entire palace.”

Gongsun Xu gave him a white look, and thought in his heart: "If only I knew what I like, I still need you to find it. Of course, whatever you find is what you find. Really,,,,,,"

Just when Gongsun Xu was about to answer, a soldier ran over and said, "Master, I found a warehouse like an armory, and there are many books in it."

"Arsenal? Books?" Gongsun Xu asked in amazement: "Go, have a look, maybe there is something good."

When Gongsun Xu walked into this warehouse, what caught his eyes was not an arsenal with many kinds of sharp weapons and armor on display. On the contrary, it was full of dust, and it seemed that no one had cleaned it for many years.

Although there are many houses in the palace, there are still very few houses like this that have not been cleaned for such a long time. Gongsun Xu found it strange when he saw it.Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the eunuch on duty in the palace being lazy, why is there such a dirty place in the palace.

Gongsun Xu looked at the dozen or so large boxes lined up in the warehouse. Through the thick dust on the boxes, Gongsun Xu could still see the simplicity of these boxes at a glance. Gongsun Xu dared to conclude that only these boxes were old. of cultural relics.

After obtaining Gongsun Xu's consent, the soldier who had just reported the news stepped forward and pried open one of the boxes. After he opened the box, everyone found that the box contained only a few swords.

Everyone was disappointed again, but Gongsun Xu found the difference. He found that these swords were obviously wider than the swords in the army now, and they didn't seem to be popular weapons in the army now.

Gongsun Xu stepped forward, he picked up a sword, and then slowly drew it out. Even though it had been dusty for so many years, when the sword was unsheathed again, it was still glowing with a cold light. Everyone was about to congratulate Gongsun Xu for winning When it was a good sword, Gongsun Xu had pulled the sword out of its sheath, only to find that it was a broken sword.

Everyone couldn't help sighing, it's a pity that such a good sword, looking at the style, definitely cuts iron like mud.Even the weapons inspector in the Youzhou Army couldn't forge such a good weapon, but it's a pity that this good thing turned out to be a waste product.

However, Gongsun Xu did not throw away the sword. He looked at the sword carefully because he found something unusual.

First of all, the sword has 8 facets, which are extremely symmetrical and balanced.It has been in the scabbard for so many years, but it has no corrosion or rust, and it is as clean as new.Moreover, looking at the edge of the sword, Gongsun Xu also felt the sharpness of the sword, so Gongsun Xu ordered his soldiers to take out a military sword, and after the two of them slashed hard, the military sword was broken A big cut was made, but the broken sword was unscathed.

Everyone was even more surprised when they saw this situation, because the weapons worn by the soldiers were all the best in the Youzhou Army. Putting it in other armies of the Han Dynasty, it is definitely a rare product.

But such a broken sword can break such a long knife, it is really incredible.

However, Gongsun Xu discovered something even more surprising. He stroked the blade of the sword, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar it seemed, as if he had seen or heard of it somewhere.

After careful observation, Gongsun Xu concluded that it was a bronze sword, and the internal structure of this bronze sword must be dense. In addition, the blade is bright and smooth, the blade is finely ground, and the textures come and go without interlacing. What's even more strange is that, Gongsun Xu felt that there seemed to be something on the surface of the sword.

Gongsun Xu frowned. Suddenly, he remembered something. The bronze sword was a weapon before the Han Dynasty. In other words, this sword was most likely left by the Qin Dynasty. This discovery suddenly made Gongsun Xu Think of some swords unearthed from the Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses in later generations.

"The error of the ancient sword of the Qin Dynasty is less than a hair." Gongsun Xu muttered to himself: "Then, the layer on this sword must be a chromium salt compound. The legend is true. Before the Qin Dynasty, China Someone has mastered this advanced technology."

The more Gongsun Xu thought about it, the more excited he became, and immediately smiled and said, "Hahahahaha, hurry up, look at the other swords and see if any are complete."

Everyone immediately pulled out the other swords in the box, and found that five swords were intact.

Gongsun Xu immediately took out one of the swords and ordered someone to bend it forcefully. It is incredible that even though it was bent more than 45 degrees, the sword returned to its original shape after the external force was removed.

Everyone was boiling all of a sudden, this is definitely a rare sword.However, only Gongsun Xu said to himself: "Shape memory alloy, the wisdom of the ancient Chinese, really cannot be underestimated."

So, everyone immediately opened other boxes and found that besides some swords, there were bows, crossbows, guns and other weapons in the boxes. Some were intact, but some were broken.Finally, Gongsun Xu found some books in several boxes.

Gongsun Xu couldn't understand many of the characters on it, and only a few books, Gongsun Xu could barely recognize these characters as Xiaozhuan.

"Could it be something from the Qin Dynasty or even before the Qin Dynasty." Gongsun Xu wondered: "The Liu family is really ignorant. They are planting good things, and they don't study them. It's a waste of money. The records in these books must be some forging techniques. , the long-lost forging technology, hahaha."

"My lord, look, this little box is so strange." A soldier said while holding a box about 1.5 meters long and less than [-] centimeters wide.

Gongsun Xu took a closer look and found that there were two small seal characters written on the box.Although Xiaozhuan is not a popular character nowadays, Gongsun still managed to recognize these two characters: Tai Ah.

Seeing that there were still some things in the warehouse that had not been opened, Gongsun Xu suppressed the excitement in his heart, and then ordered: "Okay, clean up the things in this warehouse, and transport them back to the camp. Remember, even if Even broken weapons cannot be left behind, they must be taken away.”

After everyone took the order, they immediately followed suit, and Gongsun Xu handed over the box in his hand to the soldiers around him and walked out.

After leading people to inspect the situation in the palace for a while, Gongsun Xu was about to go outside the palace, but he happened to meet Zhao Yun and Guan Yu who came to look for Gongsun Xu.

Gongsun Xu asked: "Yun Chang, what's the matter? Are they still honest?"

"My lord, Gao Lan and Cao Ren will not mess around. General Sun Jian's subordinates only have 500 people, and nothing can happen." Guan Yu replied solemnly: "However, according to the report of the spies, Lord Zhou Mu will come back in an hour. I will definitely lead the army to arrive, and the others, I am afraid they will also arrive within two hours."

Gongsun Xu nodded and didn't say anything else. Now that he has occupied most of Luoyang, even if all these princes have come, it's up to him.However, Gongsun Xu did not intend to monopolize Luoyang. In any case, the entire Luoyang cannot be occupied by him alone. However, the current situation in Luoyang is indeed not suitable for a large army to be stationed. It is true that most of the coalition troops can only be stationed outside the city.

At this time, Zhao Yun added: "Cao Cao rushed to Luoyang with a whip, and he set off with two thousand cavalry. Also, General Sun Jian hurried back to the camp after patrolling the palace for a while. I don't know. Did something happen in the camp, and later led troops to send troops with Cao Cao?"

Gongsun Xu nodded, he understood that Cao Cao wanted to immediately lead his army to pursue Dong Zhuo, and as for Sun Jian, he probably went too.However, thinking that Sun Jian had also been to the palace, Gongsun Xu immediately asked, "Which part of the palace did Sun Jian go to?"

"According to reports from my subordinates, it is in the direction of Jianzhang Hall. However, it was getting dark, and the soldiers didn't see clearly." Zhao Yun replied solemnly.

"Oh, I understand." Gongsun Xu nodded and said, "Understood, Sun Jian, Sun Jian, you are destined."

"Also, Yide has sent people to search through the houses of all the aristocratic families in the east and north of the city. All the books have been taken away by Yide. Moreover, Yide also released news that he bought books at a high price. He even I bought a lot of books from Gao Lan's subordinates."

Zhao Yun looked at Gongsun Xu's face while talking, and then Zhao Yun asked: "My lord, is Yide making a fuss over a molehill, or is this going too far?"

Gongsun Xu smiled and said: "Yide understands me, let him go, he has a measure."

When Zhao Yun and Zhao Yun were about to ask questions, Gongsun Xu replied first, "Okay, quickly gather three thousand white horse followers, and we will send troops after a two-hour rest. Dong Zhuo must be holding back. Cao Cao and Sun Jian are sure this time." Can't get any good fruit to eat. "

After Zhao Yun took the order, he immediately went down to rectify the army, Guan Yu did not delay, and he continued to lead people to patrol the safety of Luoyang.

Gongsun Xu looked in the direction of Chang'an, and murmured: "Cao Cao, Cao Cao, you are impatient. You know that Dong Zhuo must have retreated in a hurry, but there is no such cheap thing in this world. Dong Zhuo has an elite army of 20. You can defeat it with only a few thousand cavalry, I hope you will be auspicious."

Gongsun Xu didn't intend to send troops immediately. Anyway, he had to put Luoyang in order first. After more than half an hour, Gongsun Zan led his subordinates and Yuan Shu's cavalry to Luoyang first. The army is still seventy miles away.

As soon as he entered the city, Gongsun Xu arranged for everyone to be stationed in the east and north of the city, and then sent people to inspect the whole Luoyang. Then, Gongsun Xu sent Tai Shici to lead 3000 people to station in the palace. There are still many things that have not been shipped out. Gongsun Xu must be protected first.

Then, Gongsun Xu repeatedly told his father to protect the books he transported from the palace, and it was best to transport them to Bingzhou now. After that, he led 3000 people and generals Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei out of the city to the direction Dong Zhuo retreated.Because, he still has to meet an opponent for a while.
