The Three Kingdoms: My Wife is a Great and Good Teacher

"Wow, can this be saved?" Xiahou Yuan beside Xiahou Dun said in surprise.

Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, the little girl and others all looked at Xun Yu in surprise. Even Cao Cao smiled and said, "It's a good thing Wen Ruo came with us."

"This is not something that is difficult to think of. With Zhao Qing and Meng De's talents, I think they will be able to think of it if they think about it for a while." Xun Yu shook his head modestly.

"Okay, okay, don't be so modest, let's make a plan quickly, otherwise if we delay any longer, the enemy's fire will shine on us and we will be exposed!" Xiahou Yuan reminded.

Although Xiahou Dun frowned and wanted to tell her not to shout so loudly, what she said was indeed not wrong.

Now is definitely not the time to chat more.

"Then send a few people to Luoyang, and the rest of the troops will find a hidden place to cross the river. Then, when fire appears in Luoyang and Dong Zhuo returns to defend, we will attack from another side the remaining people who are harassing Dong Zhuo's army that is surrounding Han Fu's army, and help Han Fu's army break out. Then we will meet beside the Luo River and avoid Dong Zhuo's sight." Liu Zhaoqing briefly explained the plan.

So the question was who would go to Luoyang to do the most crucial task of burning food and grass and starting a big fire.

Liu Zhaoqing paused for a moment and then said, "Wenyuan and my daughter, you two will follow me to Luoyang, and the rest of us will follow Cao Cao to cross the river."

"Ah? Just three people?" Xiahou Yuan asked in surprise.

"My lord, this is too dangerous." Zhao Yun, who was excluded, said, "It's not that I don't trust Wen Yuan, but if I go too, I can't guarantee the completion of this plan, but I am confident that I can keep my lord safe."

"The reason why I don't bring Zilong is not because of any other reason, but because Zilong is more suitable for the subsequent battlefield where we charge into the enemy's territory." Liu Zhaoqing said.

"Besides, there is actually no need to worry about my comfort." Liu Zhaoqing looked at Cao Cao: "Meng De should know this."

Cao Cao was a little confused at first, but then he immediately understood something.

"Did Zhao Qing bring that thing?"

"Yes." Liu Zhaoqing nodded: "It has recovered a little, just enough for three people to use once."

"If it can be used, then the possibility of success will be greatly increased, and Zhao Qing's safety will also be more assured." Xun Yu also nodded.

Then Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun seemed to have thought of it as well. Zhao Yun stopped worrying and instead bowed and accepted the order.

Only Cao Ren, Xiahou Dun and others did not understand.

"I have to leave now without delay. I'll let Meng De or Wen Ruo explain the details to you." Liu Zhaoqing said to Cao Ren and the others, then looked at Zhao Yun: "Zilong, borrow the white dragon. After crossing the Yellow River and reaching the side gate of Luoyang, let it come back to find you."

Zhao Yun nodded.

Afterwards, Liu Zhaoqing ordered the soldiers to follow Zhao Yun and temporarily obey Cao Cao's orders. Then he rode on the white dragon and pulled Zhang Liao onto the back seat.

Without any time to think, he let the little girl sit in front of him, then he threw the reins, and the white dragon jumped into the Yellow River.

The four hooves landed steadily on the surface of the Yellow River. In the darkness of the night, the white horse carried the three people and quickly reached the other side of the river bank as if they were walking on flat ground.

After they got ashore, the little girl in his arms wanted to say something, but Liu Zhaoqing immediately hushed her and then gently touched Bailong with his leg.

The human-like Bailong immediately understood what was meant. He lowered his steps and slowly hid behind a rock. Soon after, he heard the sound of hurried marching from afar.

That was the unique sound of armor making as it ran.

"Speed ​​up! Move faster!" The general on horseback urged the team.

Judging from the style of armor illuminated by the torches, they were undoubtedly Dong Zhuo's army.

This army has a large number of troops. Logically speaking, Han Fu's food and supplies have been burned, so Dong Zhuo should not send so many troops.

But this also just proved once again her determination to annihilate the 120,000-strong army. She transferred so many troops here just to block Han Fu's possible escape route and to be alert to possible support.

But Dong Zhuo did not expect that Liu Zhaoqing would arrive so quickly with 5,000 troops.

Cao Cao on the other side of the river must have known about this. With Cao Cao and Xun Yu there, it would not be difficult to slightly change the subsequent plan and clear out those blockading or lone Dong Zhuo soldiers while helping Han Fu break out or before.

After all the soldiers had gone away, Liu Zhaoqing also rode the white dragon back towards the front.

"The color on the white dragon..." Just when Liu Zhaoqing felt that the white dragon was a little too bright.

A faint light suddenly emanated from the white dragon's body, and its hair changed from pure white to gray.

This makes it much harder to detect from a distance than before.

Liu Zhaoqing was surprised that Bailong had such ability. Although he was curious about how Zhao Yun got it, now was definitely not the time to ask someone for a horse.

The white dragon is very fast. When it attacks at night, it does not need Liu Zhaoqing to control the direction. As long as Liu Zhaoqing tells it where it wants to go, it can avoid obstacles on its own and try to stay in hidden places.

Not long after, Liu Zhaoqing saw the towering city walls of Luoyang.

It stretches endlessly like a sleeping dragon, and is even more spectacular than the Great Wall in the northern frontier.

This city is desired by countless people, and will be desired by even more people in the future. It will also witness too many rises, falls, and destructions in the future.

And now, Liu Zhaoqing actually wanted to go in and burn it.

Although to be precise the intention was to burn the food supplies, why did Liu Zhaoqing feel that setting fire in Luoyang was something that only Dong Zhuo would do?

"My benefactor, the one ahead should be one of the northern gates."

Zhang Liao behind him reminded Liu Zhaoqing.

Liu Zhaoqing looked up and saw the gate of the city wall in the distance.

This is one of the gates located on the northern city wall of Luoyang. Although it is not as large and magnificent as the main gate, it is still two meters high and can accommodate two carriages side by side in and out of the city.

When they reached a short distance before the city gate, Liu Zhaoqing asked Bailong to stop. The first person to dismount was the little girl in front of Liu Zhaoqing.

Next came Zhang Liao and Liu Zhaoqing himself.

Patting Bai Long's ribs, Liu Zhaoqing said softly, "Go back to find Zilong, and don't let anyone find you on the way."

The white dragon's ears moved, then it swung its tail, and then it turned around and went back.

Liu Zhaoqing then went towards the gate with Zhang Liao's daughter.

The door was closed at this time and one could not see what was going on inside.

As Xun Yu said, if Liu Zhaoqing wants to get in, he needs to take a gamble.

Of course, since he has the feather of the Peng bird, he doesn't have to take the gamble this time.

But if you use the Peng bird's feather to enter the door, then if you encounter any problems in Luoyang City, it will be difficult to escape.

That's why Liu Zhaoqing brought his little daughter with him.

"Do you remember the voice of the general who passed by with us just now?" Liu Zhaoqing asked the little girl.

The little girl nodded.

Originally Liu Zhaoqing was still thinking about who to choose to open the door, but he didn't expect to meet Dong Zhuo's subordinates, so he didn't have to think about it anymore.

When he arrived at the door, Liu Zhaoqing pulled the door knocker and knocked on the door.

"Who's outside?" A question came immediately from inside the door.

The little girl imitated the general's voice and said in a deep voice: "It's me!"

"Ah? Is this the voice of General Li Jue?"

"But didn't General Li Jue leave the city with the Prime Minister?"

"Something has gone wrong. The Prime Minister has specifically ordered me to return to Luoyang to retrieve the treasure. Open the gate quickly. If you delay the opportunity, you will be held accountable!"

These words also made the soldiers on the other side of the door feel fear.

Dong Zhuo was really ruthless when it came to killing people. She would execute those officials who openly opposed her without blinking an eye. The lives of these small fry were just a matter of her words.

With a rumbling sound, the door slowly opened.

Liu Zhaoqing immediately nodded to the girl, praised her with his eyes, and then signaled Zhang Liao to prepare to use force.

Xun Yu said that he needed to gamble, but Liu Zhaoqing would never really gamble. Even though Liu Zhaoqing was a "gambler", he never left the outcome entirely to luck. He also tried his best.

In this way, if the city gates were opened like now, even if the soldiers inside were loyal to Dong Zhuo, he and Zhang Liao could kill them quickly.

Although this might attract attention and make it difficult for Liu Zhaoqing to leave Luoyang later.

But the most important thing is to enter Luoyang first, not to mention that he has already thought of a retreat.

"You! You are not Li Jue's subordinates, who are you?!"

When the door was opened just wide enough for one person to pass sideways, a startled voice suddenly came from inside.

Liu Zhaoqing immediately realized that there was a big problem, so he turned sideways and rushed into the gate alone, and then knocked one of them down in the chaos.

When he faced the other person, he happened to meet his eyes: "Marquis of Changping?"

The hand that was about to punch stopped.

The man who was knocked down by Liu Zhaoqing also asked, "What Marquis of Changping?"

When he stood up and saw Liu Zhaoqing, he was also stunned.

Then both of them showed joy at the same time.

Just at this time Zhang Liao and my daughter also came in.

Seeing the expressions of the two men and the military uniforms they wore, which were completely different from those of Dong Zhuo's elite troops, Liu Zhaoqing understood that these two men were also former subordinates of the Hanting general.

He was also a pawn who was disloyal to Dong Zhuo.

"It's me." Liu Zhaoqing nodded.

"I'm not in a position to talk about the specifics, but thank you for opening the door for me. I have to do something now."

"We understand that the Marquis of Changping must have come to get rid of Dong Zhuo just like he got rid of the Ten Eunuchs before," said one person.

"Fortunately, fortunately we were transferred here just a moment ago, otherwise Marquis Changping might have really been discovered." One person said thankfully.

This made Liu Zhaoqing, who was about to leave immediately, stop for a moment and turn around to ask the man: "Were you just transferred here?"

"Yes, they were transferred here by General Yuan Shu, the General of the Central Army. It seems that the soldiers originally guarding the gate are also going to gather together to go out for support."

Liu Zhaoqing thought for a moment and felt that this should just be a coincidence. He then asked the two to clean up the traces at the door and then close the city gate as if Liu Zhaoqing had never been there and not to tell anyone.

As for how he would leave, which the two were worried about, Liu Zhaoqing also said that he had his own way and asked them to trust him.

The two nodded quickly.

In this way, Liu Zhaoqing entered Luoyang City smoothly, and then walked through the streets with Zhang Liao and his daughter.

Luoyang should have been full of flowers at night, but the streets were empty, with only a few patrolling soldiers walking by occasionally.

Apparently, martial law was imposed in Luoyang.

Although this added some trouble to Liu Zhaoqing and others in their search for Dong Zhuo's food and grass, the impact was not too great.

With Zhang Liao, a great man, around, she could sense when the soldiers were far away, and even if she encountered any problems, she had her daughter as a backup.

This also fully proves that Liu Zhaoqing's choice of candidates was carefully considered.

Along the corners of the streets and alleys, Liu Zhaoqing and his group sometimes walked along the wall, sometimes climbed over the wall, and sometimes quickened their pace, and soon arrived at a place close to the center of Luoyang City.

Liu Zhaoqing is more familiar with this place, but not that familiar with it.

After all, the last time he was in Luoyang, Liu Zhaoqing spent several days in prison. Even after he was released, he either ran around to visit several great Confucian scholars or stayed at Xun Mansion. He didn't have many opportunities to wander around Luoyang.

After climbing over a wall again to avoid the patrolling soldiers, Liu Zhaoqing wanted to climb back again, but at this time he heard footsteps not far away, and then a petite figure appeared in his sight.

The little girl's eyes turned cold, their actions must not be exposed.

Just as she was about to pounce on the figure, Liu Zhaoqing suddenly called out to her: "Wait!"

"Cai Yan?"

Hearing Liu Zhaoqing's voice, the figure also made a puzzled sound: "Is it Brother Zhaoqing again? Is there Sister Wenyuan this time? Could it be that I was too tired from practicing calligraphy at night and had a strange dream again..."

She muttered, turned her head and then bumped into the wall.

"Ah." She cried out in pain and covered her forehead, and at the same time she realized that this seemed... not a dream.

Cai Yan turned around and looked at Liu Zhaoqing again, her eyes wide open. Under the moonlight, she covered her forehead with both hands and stared with her eyes wide open, which was quite funny.

"It's really Brother Zhaoqing...Mr."

This look was indeed a bit silly. The little girl looked at Cai Yan who was covering her head in silence. Zhang Liao had met Cai Yan before and knew that she was a smart girl who was well-educated and well-mannered. This was just an accident.

Liu Zhaoqing also smiled and said, "It's me."

Then he thought for a moment and said, "But I can't chat with Xiaoyan here for long."

"Sir, are you here to arrest Dong Zhuo?" Cai Yan asked timidly. Her cheeks were a little red. She didn't know whether it was because of shyness after her private name for Liu Zhaoqing was exposed, or it was just a normal reaction after being hit on the head.

After thinking about it, Liu Zhaoqing nodded and said, "We need to catch him, but we may not be able to catch him now."

"So sir, are you going to destroy Dong Zhuo's supplies?"

"Huh? How did Xiaoyan know?" Liu Zhaoqing was surprised.
