Besides, Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, etc. knew that Dong Zhuo was dead and Lu Bu was about to arrive. So he abandoned Xiwu and took his followers with him. Even the gold and silver treasures that Dong Zhuo had collected could not be taken away, let alone Dong Zhuo's relatives. If you can't control yourself, how can you care about others. Taking advantage of the darkness, he fled to Xiliang, Dong Zhuo's hometown, all night, and then stopped.
Those who still have illusions about the imperial court will have people go to Chang'an to express their vassal status. I hope that Wang Yun can pardon their sins, and of course it is best to give them official positions.
You know, Wang Yun and Lu Bu were very proud at this moment, thinking that no one in the world could defeat them. Still sitting in the fortified city of Chang'an, with a hundred thousand soldiers under his command, he could dominate the world.
They looked down upon Li Jue and Guo Si, especially when Wang Yun thought of his close friend Yuan Shao's close uncle being brutally killed by them, he felt itching with hatred.
In addition, on the way to move the capital to Chang'an, I witnessed the atrocities committed by the two of them along the way, and I couldn't bear it anymore.
If you still want to ask for help, it would be better if I didn't send troops to destroy you. There is no way to ask for help. So they sent their messenger away and asked him to go back and tell Li Jue and Guo Si. Now everyone in the world can be forgiven, but you four cannot be forgiven.
The messenger brought the news back, and hopes were dashed. Li Jue and Guo Bang were a little panicked and didn't know what to do, so they quickly gathered everyone to discuss what to do.
After a while, I heard that Li Jue and Guo Si had important matters to discuss. Zhang Ji, Fan Chou and other Xiliang generals have arrived.
When Li Jue and Guo Si saw that everyone had arrived, they informed everyone of the replies from Chang'an Wang Yun and Lu Bu.
Seeing that their hopes were shattered, everyone was dejected. They didn't expect Wang Yun and the others to do such a desperate thing, leaving no way for them to survive.
On behalf of Guo Si, Li Jue expressed their thoughts and said helplessly, "I can't ask for mercy. There is no other way. Let's all escape."
Zhang Ji, Fan Chou and other Xiliang generals were a little disheartened when they saw how dejected they were. I just want to agree, disband the team, and run for their lives.
Suddenly, a different meaning came from behind Zhang Ji, bringing them back to reality.
Everyone looked around and found out that it was Jia Xu, the counselor, who was now an aide to Zhang Ji.
Just listen to Jia Xu's advice: "If you abandon the army and go alone, the commander of the pavilion can restrain you. It is better to lure the Xiliang people and their own troops and horses, and rush into Chang'an to avenge Dong Zhuo. Serve the emperor and serve the court to rectify the world." If he cannot win, it is not too late to leave.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jue and Guo Si's eyes lit up. Yes, we can avenge Dong Zhuo. If you succeed, fame, fortune, and wealth will be at your fingertips. It doesn't matter if you fail, it won't be too late to leave when the time comes.
This strategy is really wonderful. It is worthy of being Xiliang's think tank Jia Xu. It seems that he can compete with our strategist Li Ruyou.
Thinking of this, Li Jue and Guo Bang praised him in unison and said, "Sir, this plan is very clever. We are not willing to accept you as our military advisor. I wonder what your intentions are?"
Everyone also reacted and echoed loudly, but Zhang Ji's voice was the loudest.
"Please sir, be our military advisor. I will obey your orders."
These words caught Jia Xu off guard. Originally, Jia Xu's plan was not to make suggestions for them, nor to avenge Dong Zhuo. He just wanted them to go to Chang'an and cause chaos so that he could take the opportunity to escape.
To be honest, Jia Xu is actually more afraid of death. He values his life more than anything else. I believe more: I only care about my own life and death, not the flood after my death. Therefore, Jia Xu is selfish in his tactics and will not care about the consequences as long as he can save his life, so he is called a poisonous warrior.
The purpose of providing advice for Li Jue and Guo Si was to save their lives. Seeing that Dong Zhuo died, the other generals in Xiliang were all a bunch of losers and unreliable. I'd better take this opportunity to go back to my hometown, where it's relatively stable.
Of course, you cannot say this to them, otherwise there will be no good fruit to eat.
Jia Xu was Jia Xu. When he heard Li Jue and Guo Bang's request, he pretended to agree without blinking.
"I am so respected by the General that I dare not obey orders and everything will be subject to your arrangements."
After saying that, he made a grateful expression, but in fact he was planning in his heart to see when he would have a chance to escape.
"Hahahahaha, with the help of military advisors, we can accomplish great things," Li Jue and Guo Si said with a proud look on their faces, laughing a little arrogantly.
So, according to Jia Xu's suggestion, rumors were spread throughout Xiliang. Let his subordinates and confidants spread the word everywhere.
"Wang Yun wants to wipe out the people here!"
"Lu Bu wants to wipe out the roots and wash this place with blood!"
"The imperial court is dissatisfied with us for aiding the tyrants and wants you to increase taxes as atonement."
Anyway, there are rumors about everything, but they don't have a good word to say about the imperial court. It's because they are bad in this and that.
Within ten days, the news spread throughout Liangzhou, and there were voices of dissatisfaction everywhere, and people were excited.
The soldiers of Xiliang were even more panicked and frightened when they heard this. He was deeply afraid that Wang Yun and Lu Bu would lead their troops to kill them, and he hated and feared them in his heart.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Li Jue, Guo Si and others encouraged them, saying, "It is useless to die in vain. How can you rebel against me?"
That's right, you're going to die no matter what, so why not try to find a way out for yourself? Since the court has treated us like this, don't blame us. We all carry one head on two shoulders, who is afraid of whom? If we rebel, follow the generals and fight back to Chang'an to take revenge. Everyone rallied in response and were willing to follow.
"We are willing to follow the general in rebellion!"
"Damn it, I'm rebelling, there's no one good in the court!"
"That is, follow the general to rebel and avenge Lord Dong Zhuo!"
Li Jue, Guo Si and others were filled with indignation when they saw the people in Xiliang were discussing fiercely. They all looked very proud, but they didn't expect it to be so easy and incite the anger of the masses. Such a big thing would definitely happen. At the same time, I also looked at Jia Xugao with admiration in my heart.
So they gathered a hundred thousand people, with Li Jue and Guo Si as their leaders, and Jia Xu as their military advisor. They divided their troops into four groups and rushed to Chang'an to kill them.
On the way, Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, Zhonglang General Niu Fu, led an army of five thousand people to avenge his father-in-law. This guy is indeed a big fan of Dong Zhuo. With five thousand people, he dares to trouble Lu Bu and Wang Yun. He is really not afraid of death.
Although Li Jue and the others despised this, they did not refuse. I thought that the more fools like this the better, the stronger I would be and the more cannon fodder I would have. So he joined forces with him and asked him to take his troops as the vanguard and take Chang'an directly.
Li Jue and Guo Si marched forward one after another with an army of more than 100,000 people, and asked their cronies to contact Dong Zhuo's remaining troops in Chang'an City, thinking that if they responded internally, they would be able to fight back and win a complete victory.
Suddenly, war broke out again, Chang'an was in danger, and all the princes were a little ready to take action.
