Chapter 16 Brother, this is called the Second Palace
Luoyang, out of the river Tuluo, cultivates the three emperors and five emperors. It stands between Heluo and lives in the world. It not only has the rich and magnificent atmosphere of the land of the Central Plains, but also has the charming and romantic quality of the southern water township. It is not only the political capital of the Han Dynasty, but also the source of Chinese ideology and culture.
Luoyang City, according to the mountains in the north, the Yique in the south, the left and right stream, the Luo water runs through it, the tiger prison in the east, the west control Han Valley, surrounded by mountains and Xiongguan, so it is known as "Baguan Duyi" and "mountains and rivers are arched, and the situation is better in the world"; and it is majestic "in the world", suppressing Jianghuai in the east, Guanlong in the west, and the north leads to the secluded. Yan, Jingxiang in the south, is known as "eight-way spokes", "the hinterland of Kyushu" and "the access of ten provinces". It is also said that Luoyang is the place where the dragon veins of China are gathered, so all dynasties are the places where the princes compete with the emperors of the Central Plains, and has become the most important political, economic and cultural center in history.
Chang Geng fell, the gold rose, and the sky was red, but the red light was not very dazzling, gentle and warm. On the wide official road to Luoyang, the mountains on both sides are already green, and the spring is on the shore, which makes people feel full of vitality. It's just that the once endless fertile fields are now weeds and sentient beings, desolate and smoked, and sometimes there are wild animals.
Inside and outside Luoyang City, after Dong Zhuo's "prison", the city withered, and everything was yellow yesterday.
The guards are all listless and lazy.
Now Luoyang is no longer prosperous as before, and the merchants entering and leaving Kyoto are even at the door. Even their oil and water are rapidly tightened. If it goes on like this, I really don't know how to live. Thinking about the killing and burning of the captives in Guanzhong, they did all kinds of evil, but they still lived happily, which made the officers and soldiers guarding the city a little envious.
At this time, a man came with hundreds of forbidden guards.
The city general hurriedly stepped forward and said with a flattering smile, "General Wu, what brings you here today?"
General Wu's face was extremely arrogant. He didn't pay attention to the general's beard patting the horse. His nostrils were raised to the sky and hummed twice. Then he said arrogantly, "Is there any abnormal movement in the city gate today? Are there any people in and out?
The city general patted his chest and said with a very thick face, "General Wu, don't worry, the official has been conscientious since he took over the city's position and never neglects. Today's population is no different from the past."
"What's the order from the top?"
"General, as usual, there is no special order."
"Sun Duwei did a good job. At that time, I will come to General Niu to say a few good words for you at present."
"Thank you, General Wang."
"Who is Sun Duwei?"
"Small..."
"..."
Although this Sun Duwei wondered why General Wu suddenly became so enthusiastic and pulled up his parents with him, he did not think about it in excitement. He thought that he was treated differently and had a dream of being promoted and getting rich.
After chatting for a while, just when General Wang's face was a little anxious, the earth suddenly trembled slightly, and then there was a muffled thunder sound coming from the distance, from the beginning to the back became clearer and clearer.
Everyone is different.
Sun Duwei suddenly turned over and fell to the ground. He put his ear on the ground and listened carefully for a while. Suddenly, he got up and his face turned pale and said, "General Wang, a large group of cavalry are rushing towards Luoyang City. I don't know if it's an enemy or a friend?"
General Wu nodded, with a trace of invisible joy in his eyes. His face changed in an instant, and he made a hidden gesture to the guard on the side. At the same time, he pulled out the sword and stabbed the defenseless Sun Duwei to the ground with one move. Poor Sun Duwei didn't know why he died, which made General Wang suddenly turn around ruthlessly. His eyes were wide open and he couldn't close his eyes.
"Ah ah" At the same time, the screams around me sounded one after another.
The officers and soldiers who guarded the city without any preparation were caught off guard by the sudden distress, and the blood splashed five steps. Only a few ordinary merchants next to them who were waiting for Hou to enter the city, their legs were so scared that their legs were weak, they screamed everywhere, and fled everywhere. The guard's face was ferocious, and he rushed up without hesitation and cut it clean with three knives and two knives.
In less than a column of incense, the gate of the city is like a hell on earth, and the blood flows into a river. None of the defenders will escape and become a dead soul under the knife.
At this moment, He Chen led 2,000 cavalry and appeared on the distant horizon. One shadow, two shadows, and finally the black pressed like an ant moving, constantly moving ups and downs, like a black dragon to the sea. After more than half of the morning's attack, Wancheng soldiers were a little tired, but if Luoyang City was far away today, it made them excited.
More than half of the 2,000 cavalry went to Beijing with He Chen more than half a year ago to participate in the feat of killing. That has become the most brilliant achievement and private boasting of them. Whenever the new soldier's egg and others are close to worship and admiration, they all hold their heads high and talk proudly and loudly about how heroic the Taishou is, how they fight to kill the enemy, and enjoy it. Now that he enters the imperial city for the second time, he has to do an earth-shaking career with He Taishou. Everyone is full of blood and breasts. Thinking about the respected eyes of the world, Taishou is not stingy with golden money, as well as extremely beautiful, charming and charming maids, and more rewards for official promotion. There is a fire hidden in every scholar's chest, and he can't wait to show himself well in front of Taishou immediately.
The cavalry galloped quickly and soon came to the gate of Luoyang City.
The Wancheng soldiers, who thought they were going to go through a big war, were highly concentrated, and the weapons in their hands were already ready to go. However, they suddenly saw the corpses in front of them pile up and blood stained with loess, which made them dumbfounded. The weapons in their hands were in the air and could not fall down. Until the general knelt down and cried loudly, "Wu Kuang saw the Taishou." Only then did I realize that this person came from the inner city. The soldier looked at He Chen's eyes and worshipped him passionately.
The one who led the Forbidden Guard was Wu Kuang in those years.
Wu Kuang is loyal and brave. Since he entered Beijing with He, he has been loyal and has never had a different heart. He Jin died, and the generals followed all the trees and scattered the macaques and ran to the future. He was the only one who cried loudly and mourned, and resented that He Jin's brother He Miao could not work together with his brother, and colluded with the castries in the palace. With the help of Dong Zhuo's brother, he and Zhang Zhang led hundreds of loyal songs to kill He Miao in Luocheng. After that, He Chen, who wanted to lead the army to kill all the castrated people in the palace and revenge on He Jin's deep blood, was just persuaded by He Chen's secret letter to stay in Kyoto, assist Dong Zhuo, and then wait for the opportunity to act. It's just that Wu Kuang was implicated in the matter of the Empress Dowager He and was cut off most of his military power. Now he is only a Yulin Zhonglang general, responsible for training a forbidden guard.
He Chen decided to attack, so he wrote a letter to Wu Kuang and asked him to be an insider.
Wu Kuang agreed without hesitation, and the two made an appointment to do it together. Of course, He Chen was also on guard for fear of Wu Kuang's degeneration, but under the questioning of He Chen's messenger, Wu Kuang unexpectedly chopped off his little finger without changing his face and asked the messenger to send the letter to He Chen. At the same time, He Chen also contacted He Jin's owner, Bo Chenlin and other old people. He didn't find any changes. Only then did He Chen make up his mind to let Wu Kuang seize the city.
"General Wu doesn't have to be polite. Now that the military situation is urgent, I bring my own cavalry into the city to meet the emperor. Leave Zhang Liao to lead 500 soldiers to help you guard the checkpoint and protect me from the way out. Since you use Wu Kuang, you have to use people to give him enough trust.
"General, don't worry, there is Kuang here. They can't take back the gate in a short time and step on the bodies of their subordinates." Wu Kuang's eyes were firm and his voice was sonorous and powerful.
" OK, then please, General Wu, let's go."
"Driving"
The "Daradala" cavalry brigade, led by He Chen, rushed into Luoyang City like a gust of wind.
Luoyang City is in a severe depression, and the spacious streets are deserted. Compared with more than half a year ago, it is very different. There were only a few pedestrians on the street, and they also bowed their heads and hurriedly. The vendors, juggling, etc. were difficult to find. Occasionally, one or two stores opened their doors, but they saw a fierce array of cavalry coming, scared chickens and dogs, and hurriedly closed the door.
He Chen didn't have time to sigh there. Although Dong Zhuo's army had been sent to prison, there was still his beloved general Niu Fu, who led 3,000 elite soldiers to guard the imperial city, and Zhang Ji's 5,000 soldiers were stationed in Luocang. After Zhang Ji was defeated and returned to Luoyang, he was scolded by Dong Zhuo, and then demoted to the next level and assigned to guard the grain depot, which was a thankless job. It's also unlucky.
If you can't rush to the palace in a short time and be bitten by Niu Fujun who heard the news, then Zhang Ji, Xu Rong, and even Dong Zhuo's troops, who then heard that Kyoto were shocked, have formed a big net to surround themselves from all directions. Even if they want to run, they have to put on their wings.
He Chen still had a faint impression of the road to the palace, adding full horsepower all the way and running wildly.
It was sent for nearly an hour, and the gate of the palace was already in sight.
He Chen was refreshed, and the long gun was raised. He didn't give the other party time to close the door. He shouted, "I rushed in with the Taishou."
"Let's go." Two thousand cavalry burst out deafening, the roar of the mountain tsunami, and the sound of the iron horse "tock" madly knocking on the ground. Ten miles away, the people in Luoyang City can be heard. It is as powerful as a tiger coming out of the cage, and its power is like a dragon going out to sea.
Yu Linjun hasn't figured out what's going on yet. He Chen has brought a black whirlwind, as if no one rushed into the south gate. The subsequent cavalry crushed it without hesitation. Guns, spears and other weapons were flying, and blood was sprinkled all over the ground.
Once again, he entered the palace and led the troops to rampage again. He Chen suddenly found that he had a mortal resentment with the palace. He had only entered the palace twice until now, but each time he brought a bloody disaster. Can't you hedge against this palace? As He Chen marched, this idea suddenly came to his mind.
Catch the two maids of honor who have been scared and discolored, and ask the position of the emperor. He Chen and the cavalry brigade gallop freely in the spacious imperial city.
