Tang Ji looked at the surging soldiers outside. The little girl who had always been quite timid rarely cried anymore. She lay on Luo Kong, leaned close to Luo Kong's ear, and said with a trace of choking: "Teacher, If you are about to die, you must kill me first. I am afraid of pain, so you must do it quickly."
Luo Kong froze. He knew why Tang Ji said that, because in the chaos of the army, a person like her would be more miserable alive than dead.
He wrapped his arm around Tang Ji a little tighter. The warm blood dripped on Tang Ji's face, and the hot breath made the trembling Tang Ji feel a warmth higher than the sky and thicker than the mountains.
Luo Kong stepped forward. The seven-star sword was already covered with mottled blood stains, but this made it even sharper. Luo Kong rushed forward. Some Xiliang soldiers rushed forward, while others stepped back. Go, this gives Luo Kong a lot of room for maneuver.
If Luo Kong was riding a horse and holding a horse blade now, he would definitely not be as passive as he is now. Fortunately, he had just put on armor in the apse, so he would not be fighting without armor.
Luo Kong felt that his heart was beating faster and faster, and the blood all over his body was rushing to his limbs and veins. It seemed that there was endless power in his body. He wrapped Tang Ji behind him, and Tang Ji hugged her tightly. Holding him, holding a seven-star sword in one hand and a spear in the other, he rushed forward unstoppably.
More than a dozen soldiers in a row were killed with one strike, which frightened all the Xiliang soldiers. The number of people who dared to rush forward was greatly reduced. There were officers urging them behind, but no one was a fool.
The military pay is only a few dollars, is it worth risking your life?
They are not the elite dead soldiers of Xiliang who followed Dong Zhuo all the way through wind and rain. They are just people from Xiliang who were recruited by Dong Zhuo.
Under this situation, Luo Kong was actually alone, rushing out of the hall from the back, although Luo Kong knew that even if he rushed out of the hall, there might still be endless Xiliang soldiers outside.
Unexpectedly, suddenly there was the sound of two armies fighting outside the hall. Luo Kong immediately knew that the opportunity had come. He tried his best to sweep away the Xiliang soldiers around him, and then rushed out of the hall, and immediately saw another wave of people. Troops wearing imperial uniforms were fighting against the Xiliang army.
"Where is Prince Wushuang!"
After Bu Cai saw Luo Kong, his scalp was numb. He never expected that under such circumstances, Luo Kong would actually survive until they arrived.
The reason why they came here was probably because the Taoist Master said in his last words that befriending Luo and showing kindness to Luo would bring untold benefits to the future.
Luo Shi has the ability, strength, and credibility, and will definitely repay the favor. Showing kindness to Luo Shi can bring you wealth and honor, save your life, and make a lot of profit.
Bu Cai and others came on horseback. After rushing over, they shouted loudly: "Marquis Wushuang, get on the horse!"
As he spoke, a rather handsome war horse jumped up. Luo Kong flew up directly. The moment he was riding the horse, he dropped the spear in his hand, inserted the sword in his hand into the side of the horse, and removed the sword hanging on the right side. Ma Shan pulled it out directly.
"Thank you generals for the reinforcements. Your Majesty and the Queen Mother have been killed by Li Ruzhen sent by Dong Zhuo. I only entrust the Queen to this prince. Let's kill them out!"
Luo Kong gritted his teeth, even drawing blood. There were wounds all over his body, and even his handsome face had shocking wounds. At this moment, Luo Kong simply looked like he was coming from the dead. Evil ghosts who came out of hell.
Bu Cai looked at Luo Kong, whose body pressure was extremely low, and heard that the emperor was dead, so he quickly retreated while fighting. The infantry without horses could not catch up with them, but the Xiliang Army cavalry had already entered the palace.
When the group of people rushed out towards the east gate, they saw Yan Liang under Yuan Shao's command suddenly rushing out with a cavalry of several hundred people. He happened to see Luo Kong and shouted with great joy: "Your Majesty, my lord asked Liang to come look for you. The east gate is not open yet, I’ll leave through the south gate!”
Hearing this, Luo Kong quickly followed Yan Liang and asked anxiously: "Is Dong Zhuo outside the palace?"
Yan Liang replied: "That's right. The prince somehow leaked the news. The evil thief actually led an army to attack the people the lord was ambushing. Now the lord is leading Hebei Erlang to fight against the evil thief Dong Zhuo in Luoyang City!
Your Majesty, has your Majesty passed away? "
Luo Kong looked at Yan Liang in confusion, wondering how Yan Liang knew about this. Yan Liang knew it as soon as he saw Luo Kong's expression, and immediately said with hatred: "The evil thief Dong Zhuo said in front of the army that His Majesty passed away due to excessive grief. He led the Xiliang army to welcome Liu Xie, king of Chenliu, to succeed him as emperor, and said that the lord was a traitor."
Luo Kong knew that King Chenliu Liu Xie had always been in Dong Zhuo's hands, not in the palace. For King Chenliu Liu Xie, the degree of danger around Dong Zhuo was the same as in the palace.
Hearing that Dong Zhuo had welcomed Liu Xie as emperor, Luo Kong's heart was calm. As early as Liu Bian's death, Luo Kong knew that Dong Zhuo would definitely welcome Liu Xie as emperor.
He just suddenly thought that the Han Emperor lineage of Ling Emperor was really coming to an end.
The two direct princes of the Ling Emperor died, leaving only one concubine prince, who was appointed by Dong Zhuo.
It is absolutely impossible for Yuan Shao to recognize Liu Xie's throne. The mere issue of the throne would blow a dog's brains out.
But these are no longer what Luo Kong wants to think about. He only wants to do one thing now, and that is to twist off Dong Zhuo's ugly head.
With the presence of war horses, and the fact that Bu Cai and Yan Liang were all fierce generals, the group of five led the Taiping Army to rush out of the south gate relatively smoothly. As soon as they exited the south gate of the imperial city, they saw a large number of Taxi soldiers were fighting fiercely in the streets.
Yuan Shao was sitting in the middle of the army, and Wen Chou was guarding him. Xun You was a little embarrassed, but at least he managed to escape with his life, but Wang Yun was nowhere to be seen, probably lost in the rebel army.
As the reinforcements from Xiliang gradually increased, Yuan Shao's army was under increasing pressure. Yuan Shao had a firm look on his face, knowing that what he said was in vain.
Yuan Shao had to wait for Yan Liang to come out of the palace before leaving here. Xun Chen had already advised Yuan Shao to withdraw his troops two quarters of an hour ago, but Yuan Shao said directly: "Our army can still fight, but if one of me is lost, General, isn’t it painful? Yan Liang has been ordered by me to go into the palace to search. He wants to see people alive, and wants to see corpses after death!”
Yuan Shao tightly grasped the sword in his hand. He had judged the current situation, and different from the perspective of counselors, what Xun Chen and Xun You were doing was planning and calculation, and what Yuan Shao cared about was It's the human heart.
He firmly believed that although the army seemed to be in turmoil on the surface, as long as he was still here, he could stabilize the people of the army. As long as the people of the army were stable, the army would be indestructible. If he really retreated in such a dejected manner, the army's combat power would instantly decline. Going to collapse.
Facts have proved that there is no problem with Yuan Shao's judgment. Facing an enemy several times his own, the seemingly shaky front can be held firmly. Of course, this is also related to the slight difficulty in performing in Luoyang City.
But the result was very good. Yuan Shao managed to hold on until Yan Liang and others came out. Wen Chou, who had been guarding Yuan Shao, breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Yuan Shao as if he were looking at a god. His loyalty to Yuan Shao had reached Extremely.
Luo Kong rode up to Yuan Shao, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you so much, Lord Xiang, for your help. Kong is grateful. I wonder where Dong Zhuo is?"
The emergence of the Taiping Army made the line more stable. Now Yuan Shao was about to retreat. He glanced at Empress Tang who was hugging Luo Kong tightly, and knew that the emperor had indeed passed away.
Yuan Shao was a little sad, but also a little happy, and his mood was extremely complicated. He was not a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, because he felt that the royal family was nothing more than that, and no emperor was qualified to sit on the throne for many generations.
The position of emperor is occupied by those who are virtuous, and the position of emperor is occupied by those who are capable. These Han emperors were without virtue and incompetence, so what qualifications did they have to be the leader of the world?
Liu Bian was a virtuous man, and Yuan Shao still recognized Liu Bian in his heart. Now that Liu Bian, the last emperor, has died, leaving only Dong Zhuo's puppet Liu Xie, the banner of the Han Dynasty is really about to fall.
Who will carry the flag? Can Yuan get his destiny?
Countless thoughts flashed through Yuan Shao's mind, and then he heard Luo Kong asking where Dong Zhuo was.
Yuan Shao looked at Luo Kong. His whole body was covered with wounds, and blood kept oozing out of the wounds. The scabbed wounds were also cracked by the violent movements, but
Deep in Luo Kong's eyes, there were endless flames that seemed to burn out everything.
It was the fire of anger, the fire of life, the fire of soul, and everything in Luo Kong's being.
Yuan Shao understood something and looked at Xun You. He remembered what Xun You said that Wushuanghou was willing to die and was willing to give his life as long as he could kill Dong Zhuo.
Yuan Shao felt his throat was a little dry and asked: "Your Majesty, Dong Zhuo is in the Xiliang army. It is impossible to rush over and kill him.
Dong Zhuo is now very powerful. Why don't we leave Luoyang City first and gather all the heroes to fight against Dong Zhuo? It won't take long. When we came to Luoyang, there were actually many people who cared about the imperial court among the original Qin Wang princes. coming.
As long as several people come, and with the current number of people, they will be enough to fight Dong Zhuo to the death! "
Luo Kong's eyes dimmed for a moment. He knew that he couldn't let Yuan Shao fight because of the resentment in his heart, so he nodded slightly and Yuan Shao breathed a sigh of relief.
In this situation, a head-on fight with Dong Zhuo is really a win-win situation. It was too hasty and the time given to him was too short.
When he left Jizhou, Yuan Shao had already sent letters to many people. Calculating the time, if all those people were willing to come, it would be almost time.
It doesn't take much, as long as four or five princes come, Yuan Shao dares to fight Dong Zhuo!
The group of people gradually retreated from the south gate of the imperial city to the south gate of Luoyang City. Luo Kong looked at countless blood flowing in the streets. He looked up at the blue sky and couldn't help but shed bright red tears from the corners of his eyes, just like It's like blood.
"Ancestor, ancestor."
When Luo Kong reached this point, he always felt that he still needed to do something. He looked up to the nine heavens with a blissful soul and called out to his ancestors.
Then Ji Zhao responded to him, a message and artifact fell into his mind, and Luo Kong's dim eyes ignited a raging fire again.
He forcibly restrained his emotions and understood that he only needed one chance, which was to wait for these princes to create a chance for him to get slightly closer to Dong Zhuo.
Luo Kong, Yuan Shao and others retreated all the way. Dong Zhuo naturally would not let go and chased them all the way. Especially after Dong Zhuo learned that Li Ru and Hua Xiong had all died in the palace, he became even more furious and directly issued a killing order. Whether it is Yuan Shao or Luo Kong, whoever kills them can be promoted to three levels in a row and given a thousand gold coins!
Yuan Shao and others led the army all the way out of Luoyang City, and the Xiliang army continued to pursue them. At this moment, a large army suddenly rushed out from the north of the army.
Yuan Shao was surprised at first, thinking it was the Xiliang army, but upon closer inspection, it was obvious that that army was not any army in Luoyang City.
This is a fairly new army, and it looks like his Jizhou army. It seems to be a local prince. With the appearance of the big banner, there is a big word Cao on the head.
Yuan Shao's eyes lit up, and he could probably guess who it was. When the vanguard appeared, it turned out to be Cao Cao's clan brothers, and it turned out that Cao Cao led his army here.
Yuan Shao had just told Luo Kong in the city that those Qinwang princes would definitely come here, but he did not expect that he would meet Cao Cao just after leaving Luoyang City.
Yuan Shao was overjoyed to see that his friends were coming, and said to everyone: "Everyone, this is Cao Mengde's army. You should all know that he was also in the army of King Qin at the beginning and fought bravely. With Cao Mengde here, those Xiliang troops will definitely retreat. Already."
While talking to everyone, he immediately led his army to join Cao Cao. Cao Cao also saw Yuan Shao's flag and hurriedly came towards him.
Cao Jun happened to be on the flank of the Xiliang Army. Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan immediately led their cavalry and slammed into the flank of the Xiliang Army.
The Xiliang army was attacked by Cao's army who suddenly rushed out. They were unable to respond and suffered a small defeat and quickly retreated.
Yuan Shao and others finally relieved the threat from the Xiliang army and reunited with Cao's army.
Cao Cao was able to recover so quickly and even come to Luoyang, so he naturally had the support of the nobles.
Yingchuan Xunor, who was living in Yanzhou due to the war, fell in love with Cao Cao at first sight and defected to him, introducing him to Yanzhou along the way.
State gentry.
Cao Cao was already famous and talented, and was recognized by many of them, so he quickly regained some of his strength with the support of these nobles.
He took charge of Chenliu as the prefect, and occupied several counties in Yanzhou. Compared with the previous simple support of the Cao family and the Xiahou family, he was three points stronger.
Yuan Shao directly stepped forward and held Cao Cao's hand, saying emotionally: "Ah Ma, you came in time. If you hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid we would have suffered heavy losses."
When Cao Cao saw Yuan Shao calling him by his childhood nickname, he knew how tense the situation before Yuan Shao was. He smiled casually and said: "Benchu, your act of showing your sword in front of Dong Zhuo spread throughout the world.
I came with an army to help you and cheer up the Han Dynasty! "
Yuan Shao smiled bitterly when he heard this. Cao Cao felt bad when he saw this and quickly asked: "Benchu, what happened? Where is your majesty?"
Yuan Shao pointed at Luo Kong and said, "Let Marquis Wushuang come and talk to Meng De." Cao Cao exclaimed, "Marquis Wushuang?"
He never dreamed that the bloody man in front of him would be Wushuang Hou Luokong, the knight general who was more powerful than the three nobles, the son of the Luo family!
Another drop of blood dropped from Luo Kong's face, and he said in a deep voice: "Both your Majesty and the Queen Mother were killed by Dong Zhuozhen. Only the Queen survived. Your Majesty entrusted it to me before his death."
Cao Cao felt dizzy for a moment, came to his senses, and shouted angrily: "Dong Zhuo, this female thief! This evil thief! This treacherous traitor!"
Everyone who followed Cao Cao was full of resentment. This meant that Xun Yu was still guarding Cao Cao's home in Yanzhou. If Xun Yu came here with the mentality of Han Dynasty, I am afraid that no matter how virtuous he is, he would still treat Cao Cao. Then Dong Zhuo cursed.
Cao Cao paced anxiously, and then asked: "Your Majesty is dead, what should we do now?"
Yuan Shao quickly told his plan of waiting for the princes to gather together to defeat Dong Zhuo. Cao Cao was silent for a moment and then said: "But Dong Zhuo can't just wait there and let us kill him.
Moreover, there may not be many princes in the world who can come, so it is still difficult to defeat Dong Zhuo. "
At this time Luo Kong suddenly said: "I can kill Dong Zhuo!"
Everyone looked at Luo Kong, only to hear the serious look on Luo Kong's blood-stained face as he said word for word: "As long as I enter three hundred steps in front of Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo will die. There is no need for anything." Man can keep him.”.
Hearing Luo Kong's words, everyone was a little surprised. There is a saying called "a hundred steps can pierce the Yang" to describe a sharpshooter. Those who exceed this distance are all magical, but they still dare not say that they are sure to hit. Luo Kong naturally knows what everyone is thinking. What, just said, "In the name of Emperor Su, Dong Zhuo will die!" Boom!
Now everyone had no choice but to believe what a Luo family member said in the name of Emperor Su. No one in the world could question it. This was a trust forged for thirteen hundred years!
Even if everyone doesn't know Luo Kong's methods, even if everyone doesn't know what Luo Kong is going to do, everyone is willing to believe his words.
Cao Cao said with emotion: "Since you are so sure, then wait for the opportunity and create opportunities for you!"
The strong wind blew up the corners of Luo Kong's clothes, and the flames in his eyes seemed to never burn out!
In the third year of Zhongping, in May, Dong Zhuo's daughter Qian acted recklessly. Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and other princes and righteous men gathered in the suburbs of Luo and faced the Luo River and swore to defeat Dong Zhuo together.
The feudal lords of Guandong expressed their blood and said: "The righteous men of Kyushu, even the relatives of the Han Dynasty, the scholars, and the heroes, pointed to the sacred water of Luohe and swore an oath of alliance.
Today, Dong Zhuo is tyrannical, regicide and treacherous, and even harms the people. His evil deeds are too numerous to be described, and the poison in his heart cannot be washed away by pouring out the sacred water of the Luo River.
He has trampled on humanity and caused suffering to the people, so now all the princes are punishing him together, rising up to show off their power and put an end to the tyranny! "
Having made the oath, the princes arrayed themselves to attack. ——"Book of the Later Han·Biography of Dong Zhuo"
