Ancestor Bless: I built a thousand-year-old family

Chapter 620 Heading Forward to Luoyang!
Luo Xiao rode on the ink unicorn, and slowly retracted the big bow in his hand, several figures were nailed to the ground, with gurgling blood flowing out.

His eyes fell on the bodies of these people.

The so-called prosperity and wealth, the so-called power and position, what is it in the face of life and death?

It's just a skeleton that will decay eventually!

He cast his eyes from Gong County across the mountains and rivers to Luoyang City, where the emperor and ministers of the Han Dynasty were there.

Let your power over the world, is there any exception?

The defeat in this battle was too tragic. Although the Battle of Handan, which was known as the death of Qin in World War I, was over after the end, except for Liu Bang, the coalition forces of the princes were still more than 1000 miles away from Xianyang, the capital of Qin.

How about from Gong County to Luoyang?
A hundred miles!

If this distance is to be forced to march quickly, it can almost be said that it will be reached overnight.

This is why Liu Bei and others were unwilling to return to Luoyang. Maybe they had just entered Luoyang City, and the next moment Luoyang City was besieged by Zhang Jiao's Taiping Army.

Naturally, Luoyang City was not an empty city, and it was impossible for the emperor to let Huangfusong take away all the troops.

There are still enough troops in the city to guard Luoyang. Luoyang was designed by Su Wang as a city that never falls, and after several repairs, Bai Qi personally led the army to attack for a long time before breaking the city.

It stands to reason that it is impossible for the Taiping Army to break through in a short period of time, but once the time is prolonged, the world will change.

The strength of the Taiping Army lies in Luo Xiao alone. If Luo Xiao is dragged in Luoyang, the Taiping Army in other directions will be gradually suppressed.

In the end, the princes of the Han court will be able to take turns to fight against the general trend of the world.

But as I said before, the general trend of the world lies in the people's hearts. With such a tragic defeat and people's panic, can Luoyang City really be defended?

Luo Xiao looked at the soldiers of the Han army fleeing in all directions on the battlefield, at the corpses scattered all over the mountains, at the big sun falling from the middle sky to the mountains, feeling the heat that gradually subsided, just like the national power of a big man, gradually falling Into the sunset of the Western Mountains, into the bottomless abyss.

blah blah blah.

Zhang Yan and other senior officials of Taipingdao gathered around him, Luo Xiao suddenly asked excitedly: "Do you know why the Han army suddenly collapsed?"

Not only Huangfusong couldn't understand this problem, but the Taiping army commander Qu Shuai also couldn't figure it out.

Although the Daoist Lord is invincible, but no matter how you look at it, the coalition of princes will not suddenly collapse like this. If there are elite soldiers, there will be strong generals, and there will be no problem if it drags on for at least a year and a half.

But almost all the princes suddenly turned their faces at the same time, scrambling to escape, for fear that they would be left behind by others.

Luo Xiao didn't pretend to be a joke and said directly: "Do you still remember what I said we were going to do?

Let everyone in the world know that Han Ting's destiny has been lost.

This big defeat caused the hearts of the princes of the Han court to be shaken, and those princes who fled felt that the Han court might really be about to perish.

So they left the emperor of Luoyang without hesitation. This is the general trend of people's hearts.

Just like the reason why you fought the enemy bravely, isn't it because you are excited in your heart and can clearly feel that the Han court is really going to be defeated in our hands? "

When all the handsome men heard what Luo Xiao said, they were all surprised, but looking back on their own hearts, it was really the case.

Guan Hai even asked directly: "Master Taoist, shall we march directly to attack Luoyang?"

The eyes of all the commander-in-chiefs lit up, Luo Xiao just asked, "Do the soldiers under your command still have the energy to undertake a rapid march of a hundred miles, and then go into battle?"

As soon as Luo Xiao said this, the commanders of the Qu knew that it was impossible. They had already experienced a whole day of fighting, and now the soldiers were not allowed to fight against the army defending the city of Luoyang after they marched in a hurry.

If you are a little careless, you may even lose everything. The Taoist is invincible in the battle, not able to withstand the rain of arrows and charge, that is something that only heaven and man can do.

Luo Xiao did know that there was an artifact in the Zeng family that could achieve this effect.

[Soldiers are expensive and fast: It can increase the marching speed of an army of no more than 5 people by 30% without consuming too much energy. 】

It's a pity that this artifact is no longer even in the family.

All the commanders of Qu went to clean up the battlefield, healed the wounded in the Taiping Army, and then lit a big fire on the battlefield, but because they were too tired, the corpses were not as easy to burn as in the canyon, so it was only a general fire. for a moment.

The sky gradually darkened, Luo Xiao stood in the camp, looking up at the sky with his hands behind his back.

The starry sky is still so bright, the stars in the sky are gradually twinkling, and the galaxy composed of countless stars is like a light belt, hanging in the starry sky.

Among the stars in the sky, there is one called Zhang Jiao.

"Zhang Jiao, Zhang Jiao!"

Luo Xiao couldn't help but recall the only person who could be called his friend, a strange man, a mortal who could communicate with destiny, and finally took his own life in order for Luo Xiao to defeat the destiny of Hanting.

"The final outcome is coming soon, the Han court in the sky has already perished, and the Han court on the ground is about to be destroyed, unfortunately you will not see this scene.

But at least your life and mine are not in vain. "

A certain star in the starry sky seemed to be brighter, and the gleaming moonlight shone from the starry sky, softly shining on Luo Xiao's body.

……

After the Taiping Army's victory, they considered whether they could directly break Luoyang City, so they had to consider the issue of physical strength, but those who retreated did not care about physical strength.

The armies of the princes who had retreated from Gong County fled in all directions, especially those armies of the princes. Neither Lu Bu nor Zhang Liao thought that the other princes would be so shameless that they would run away directly.

Are you also Bianjun warriors?
Are you also looked down upon by the emperor and ministers?
I, Lu Bu, are a subject of Ding Yuan's conquest, so it makes sense not to sacrifice my life for the emperor.

How can you do this when you have been paid by the Han Dynasty?
Lu Bu and Zhang Liao scolded their mothers in their hearts, and the horses under their crotches picked up a bit of speed. After breaking through from the left side, they were preparing to make a big detour back to the central army to pick up their adoptive father Ding Yuan.

In the end, seeing Zhang Jiao kill Huangfusong with a single blow, Lu Bu and Zhang Liao immediately applauded in their hearts, and the next scene was that Zhang Jiao shot one arrow and nailed all the slow-running princes to the ground.

Ding Yuan is among them!

There was no other way, Lu Bu and Zhang Liao looked at each other, let's go back to Bingzhou!

So led by Lu Bu, the Bingzhou wolf rider turned again and went directly to Bingzhou without getting involved in the affairs of the Central Plains.

These princes, especially those who came from nearby towns, such as Youzhou, Bingzhou, Liangzhou or Sili Guanzhong, all returned to their old places, and they could hide for a day.

But there are still many people fleeing to Luoyang. Luoyang is a huge transit point, extending in all directions and leading to all parts of the world.

The hundred-mile road from Gong County to Luoyang was crowded with densely packed people, most of whom were defeated soldiers who had thrown away their helmets and armor.

The largest of them is the Western Region Army led by Luo Kong, which is one of the few armies that can maintain the overall formation at this time.

In this kind of escape, the benefits of having more and better horses are reflected, rushing past most of the deserters like lightning.

……

After a whole night of marching, Luo Kong finally arrived outside Luoyang City at dawn. Such an army of over ten thousand suddenly appeared outside Luoyang City, how could it not make people panic?

The Luoyang soldiers guarding the city closed all the gates of Luoyang City in a short period of time. What Luo Kong faced when he arrived in Luoyang City was that all the gates were tightly closed.

Seeing this, Luo Kong immediately said: "Raise the big banner and tell Luoyang City that it is Wushuanghou of the Western Regions. The allied forces of the princes have been defeated. The Taiping Army is coming soon. Wushuanghou wants to enter the palace to meet the emperor."

As the flags of Wushuang and Luozi were raised, the general at the head of Luoyang city was a little relieved, but the news that came immediately after that made him tremble all over, and he stood on the top of the city and shouted: " Your Majesty, please go and report to His Majesty!"

A knight rushed towards the palace from among the city gate guards. Luo Kong waited anxiously. Now he was racing against time. He never knew when his brother would lead his army to catch up.

The knight stumbled before reaching the palace, and announced the news. Such a shocking news, directly entered the palace smoothly all the way.

The emperor had just woken up. If it wasn't the regular attendant who interrupted his rest, he would probably be a corpse by now, "Your Majesty, Gong County was defeated, the Taiwei was killed in battle, and the Taiping Army will soon arrive at the city of Luoyang. Now Marquis Wushuang Leading more than ten thousand cavalry from the Western Regions, just outside Luoyang City."

Speaking of submitting the battle report written by Luo Kong to the emperor, the emperor was immediately shocked when he heard the words.

Huangfusong is dead?
The army is defeated?

Boundless fear seized his heart in an instant. He unfolded the battle report tremblingly. After reading only a few lines, the emperor couldn't grasp the battle report and fell straight down. His voice was a little trembling, "Quickly, please enter Palace, and then summon all the officials to enter the palace."

Naturally, iron cavalry from the Western Regions could not enter the city. After a night of trekking, they were exhausted now, so they camped directly on the spot and prepared to take a rest. After all, there was still a long way to go.

Luo Kong rode the bloody BMW he brought from the Western Regions, took off his helmet and heavy armor and walked into Luoyang City. Hou naturally did not have the privilege of walking on the sword.

After Luo Kong entered the palace, he saw that the ministers were already kneeling on the seats, and they were all looking at him. These ministers were dressed in red robes, and all of them looked well-dressed, but Luo Kong knew that at least half of them were Guilty against the country and society.

The emperor sat on the top, and Luo Kong's eyes flashed a hint of disgust. This emperor and those ministers who were eating vegetarian food made the world what it is now.

Everyone looked at Luo Kong, Luo Kong's face was still covered with blood and sweat from the battlefield just now, even though his hair was tied, there were still strands of hair hanging down.

Embarrassed!

This was the first word that flashed in everyone's minds. If it weren't for the stigmata between the eyebrows, who would have known that the embarrassed person in front of him was Luo Shizi?

"General Chen Xiaoqi and Wushuang Houkong pay respects to His Majesty."

Luo Kong bowed and bowed, the emperor hurriedly made Luo Kong flattened, and then asked anxiously: "Qing, is Gong County really defeated as you said in the battle report?"

Luo Kong nodded and said, "It's more than that!

This battle was like the Battle of Handan at the end of the Qin Dynasty. The main force was almost wiped out, and Qin Wang and the princes fled in all directions. I am afraid that it will be impossible to gather so many troops within a year or two. "

boom!
The hall was instantly resounded by noisy sounds, and the faces of all the officials were extremely anxious. They said something, but they didn't know what they were talking about.

Luo Kong's words completely shattered the luck in everyone's hearts. That Zhang Jiao really defeated the imperial army and the coalition forces of the world's princes.

Just like the Battle of Handan at the end of Qin Dynasty!

Is this the big man dying?

Countless thoughts rolled in the emperor's heart, and finally he could only sigh: "What can I do?"

For what reason, what should I do now?

Luo Kong didn't want to talk nonsense with the emperor and the courtiers here, and immediately asked anxiously: "Your Majesty, for the current plan, Luoyang City cannot stay.

There are more than [-] troops under my command, there are still elite soldiers in Luoyang city, and there are guards in the palace, so I should pack up and go to Chang'an immediately.

Chang'an is a land of four fortresses. Back then, Qin was able to stop the Allied Forces of the Six Nations by relying on Weihan natural barriers. Although Qinhangu Pass is not as dangerous as it was then, it is still easy to defend and difficult to attack.

As long as Guanzhong can be defended, the big man will not perish!
The Taiping army will approach the city at any time, if you don't hurry up, once the Taiping army arrives, it will be too late to leave.

Where are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the other princes?Please also call them out. "

Luo Kong's words surprised the emperor, leaving Luoyang City?
This is the capital of gods built by King Su!
And once you leave Luoyang, it is equivalent to giving up the entire east of Weihan to the Taiping Army. How can the remote and bitterly cold place like Chang'an compare with Luoyang.

But thinking about it again, there is really no other way but to leave Luoyang City now, and at least one life can be saved by fleeing to Chang'an.

The emperor quickly said: "The crown prince is still in the East Palace, and the second son of the emperor is also in the palace, so let the palace servants go and call him over, Lord Wushuang, if I leave for Chang'an, will I be safe on the way?

It is thousands of miles from Luoyang to Chang'an, what do I need to do? "

Whether it was the regular attendant or the ministers in the palace, they all said, "Wu Shuanghou, I don't know what you need to prepare, what can you take away?"

Luo Kong knew what the emperor, the servants, and the ministers wanted to ask. These people just wanted to know how much money they could take away. After all, these people had quite a lot of money in Luoyang City, so it's fine to give up some of it in order to escape, but If you give up all of them, you are naturally unwilling.

But Luo Kong just sneered in his heart, not to mention wealth, he didn't plan to bring most of the people here!
----

The Han army perishes in the four wildernesses, looking across the eight wildernesses, there is no enemy, but he laughs wildly with all the marshals and said: "The Han army is gone, Luoyang is very close, the clouds and mists disappear, and there is light."

When I heard this remark, I was quite moved, and I had to say: I will travel to Luoyang without going forward, and I will see the light through the clouds and mists! ——"The Heroes of the Late Han Dynasty"
