Agents of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 144 Parting ways?

Luoyang is located in the north of Luoshui, and the north of the water is called "Yang", so it is named Luoyang.

Luoyang is located in the Central Plains, with mountains and rivers in its territory, and the danger of the Yellow River. Luoyang is based on Hulao Pass in the east, Hangu Pass in the west, Funiu Mountain in the south, and Mang Mountain in the north. Strategic location.

Today, Dong Zhuo has given up Luoyang and headed west to Chang'an.

When Wang Lei, Cao Cao and others arrived in Luoyang with their troops, Dong Zhuo had already left.Everyone entered the city, and their mood gradually became heavy.The prosperity and wealth in the city disappeared, replaced by a sense of devastation.Looking around, it is lonely, desolate and desolate, giving people a feeling of endless sadness, like the bleakness under the autumn wind, and like the withering of winter.

Pedestrians are rarely seen on the street, and even if they are seen, they are ragged civilians dragging their tired bodies.

The whole Luoyang was full of endless fatigue.

Such a state made Wang Lei's heart tense.

Wang Lei frowned into a "Chuan" and rode forward slowly. As he walked, he looked at this thousand-year-old capital.The majestic and majestic city tower is full of scorched marks, and the top is even more bumpy, full of vicissitudes of life and desolation.Many houses in the city have also been burned or damaged, and are no longer intact.

Everything is full of desolation.

"The capital of the great country has become like this, Dong thief should be killed!"

Cao Cao clenched his fists with a look of indignation.

When Dong Zhuo left Luoyang, Dong Zhuo not only took away Luoyang’s food and equipment, but also excavated the tombs of previous emperors, and took away all the valuables such as gold and silver jewelry buried with him. A big fire broke out and burned the palaces, houses, etc. in Luoyang City, so that the land of thousands of miles was turned into scorched marks.

A group of people came outside the palace, and everyone stopped and stood.

At this moment, everyone concentrated and held their breath, because what caught their eyes was a piece of scorched earth.

Cao Cao got off his horse and walked towards the burnt palace step by step. He looked at the scorched palace. Suddenly, Cao Cao knelt down with a plop, kowtowed with his head, and lay on the ground with choked hands. You are so arrogant, but the minister is helpless, the minister Cao Cao is ashamed of the late emperor, the minister is incompetent..."

At this moment, Cao Cao was lying on the ground and crying loudly.

There was endless desolation in the voice.

Wang Lei got off his horse and helped Cao Cao up. He could feel Cao Cao's body trembling constantly. It was because the emperor was in trouble and the royal family was robbed.At this moment, Cao Cao, the future traitor, is still dedicated to serving the country, and his life opportunities are indeed amazing. Such a person who is loyal to the Han Dynasty has come to the opposite side of the court in the future.

Wang Lei patted Cao Cao on the back and sighed softly: "Brother Meng De, crying is useless, if you are a man, you should stand up and use your usefulness to benefit the country, and strive to bring Dong Zhuo down as soon as possible."

"Yes, yes, we will immediately march westward and attack Dong Zhuo!"

Cao Cao wiped the tears from his eyes, calmed down his excitement, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit.

"Ugh……"

Wang Lei sighed softly, with helplessness in his eyes.

Cao Cao's heart skipped a beat, and he asked, "What's the matter, why are you sighing?"

Sun Jian was also quite puzzled. In Sun Jian's eyes, Wang Lei was a talented and capable young boy.Not only that, Wang Lei is always smiling, with no worries on his face, he is an optimist.When Wang Lei was like this suddenly, Sun Jian immediately had a bad feeling in his heart, wondering if something happened?

Sun Jian was worried, and hurriedly asked, "My dear brother, what happened?"

Wang Lei sighed softly: "The lord has sent a message, asking me to withdraw my troops immediately!"

"what?"

Cao Cao and Sun Jian were surprised at the same time, with incredible expressions in their eyes.

Cao Cao asked again: "Why?"

Wang Lei looked dignified, and said slowly: "The leader said that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu had withdrawn their troops privately. The leader wanted to persuade them to stay, but he couldn't persuade them. Inspector Liu Dai, Hanoi prefect Wang Kuang, etc., the princes from all walks of life have withdrawn. Now, there are only one or two people left, only our three groups are still fighting, and the rest are busy with themselves thing."

"Bastard, idiot, how can he withdraw his troops? Ahhhh..."

Cao Cao screamed in anger, beating his chest and stamping his feet.

Sun Jian's face was ashen and cold.

Wang Lei knew that this news would hit Cao Cao and Sun Jian hard, but it was indeed Han Fu's order.

Up to now, Han Fu has discovered that the situation in Jizhou is not right.

After Cao Cao vented his anger, he said expectantly with hope in his eyes: "My dear brother, you send a message to the leader and say that if you give us a little more time, we will be able to march westward to Chang'an and defeat Dong Zhuo." He looked Xiang Sun Jian asked expectantly: "Wentai, what do you think?"

Sun Jian nodded and replied, "I agree!"

Cao Cao was overjoyed and said, "My dear brother, what about you? Do you dare to fight with us?"

Wang Lei said: "Brother Meng De, I can't fight with you!"

"What... you, you, you... why? Can't you fight for the country?"

Cao Cao was worried, and said loudly: "During my time in Luoyang, Dong Zhuo was very arrogant. He killed the queen mother and the prince without any scruples. After Dong Zhuo became the emperor, he became even more daring, and often entered the palace to defile the concubine. Ladies and gentlemen, don't take the royal family seriously... Up to now, Dong Zhuo has taken the emperor to Chang'an, burned the foundation of the Han Dynasty, and dug up the tombs of the previous emperors. Shouldn't such a person be killed? Isn't it worth your Wang Lei to risk it?"

Cao Cao was as mad as mad, with deep disappointment in his eyes.

In Cao Cao's heart, he has always treated Wang Lei as a confidant.Because after he escaped from Luoyang, he wanted to contact the princes in the world to attack Dong Zhuo together, but Han Fu, who was the first to find him, ruthlessly rejected him, which made Cao Cao despair.At that time, it was Wang Lei who gave him hope, and it was Wang Lei who pointed out the way for the future, which made Cao Cao rise up, and only then did the princes seek Dong today.

During the crusade against Dong Zhuo, he and Wang Lei fought side by side, like brothers.

At this time, Wang Lei wanted to withdraw.

In this case, it was like a sharp knife suddenly piercing Cao Cao's heart, which made Cao Cao feel a heartache.

Obviously the person who is most likely to help, but they have to part ways.

Wang Lei was very calm, and asked lightly: "Brother Meng De, I know your ambition is to help the country, but do you know my situation? Do you understand my situation? You can go all out for the crusade against Dong Zhuo, you can go all out for righteousness , that's because after you go all out, there is a strong backing behind you to rely on. But after I go all out, who will give me a strong backing? I am the backing of a group of people, I can't fall, I can only rely on myself, no one to give me shoulders."

"Boom!!"

A thunderstorm sounded, and the dazzling lightning flashed across, shocking people's hearts.

"Crash!!"

The pouring rain fell, and the bean-sized raindrops fell on Cao Cao and Wang Lei, wet their clothes and wet their hearts.The two people who knew each other had extremely complicated emotions at the moment.
