Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

Chapter 333: A man was born between heaven and earth, how can he want to live with others for a long time!

three days later.

The western capital of the Han Dynasty was Chang'an.

Located on the central axis of the city, Li Ru had already ordered people to build a three-story altar here overnight, claiming it to be the place where Dong Zhuo was ordered to be crowned king.

However, because it was manufactured in a hurry, the details inside and outside of this altar can be seen, and there are obvious traces of roughness in many places.

Of course Dong Zhuo didn't care about this.

All he wants is the lofty honor of being crowned the king of a different surname, and the pleasure of being above all others in the world. As for the slightly rough procedures, it doesn't matter. He can just make up for it later.

It is located outside the south gate of Chang'an Palace.

Dong Zhuo was riding a tall horse, and he was full of high spirits. Although from the outside, he looked as bloated as a dark hill, this did not prevent him from being satisfied with his ambition.

Dong Zhuo was accompanied by dozens of elite Xiliang cavalry and hundreds of infantry armed with weapons to protect his safety.

Li Ru, Lu Bu and other figures Dong Zhuo regarded as his confidants were also among the guards, while the civil and military ministers in the court stood slightly further away.

"Prime Minister, the auspicious time is approaching. Your king-making ceremony must not be delayed. If you have no other instructions, please leave for the altar now!"

Following Li Ruchu's statement.

Dong Zhuo nodded happily and agreed.

Following his order, the entire team headed towards Chang'an Central Street in a mighty manner.

Along the way, gongs were sounded to clear the way, and there were ceremonial guards in front and behind, but ordinary people could not see many. Most of them were soldiers in uniforms, guarding the left and right sides of the streets to maintain order.

…………

At the beginning of the trip.

Dong Zhuo still looked around leisurely and leisurely, and as the horse swayed forward, he was still thinking about the future prospects.

It’s just halfway through the trip.

The sensitivity that still vaguely remained in his mind, as well as the vigilance developed through years of military and frontier service, made him realize that something was wrong.

After careful observation, he asked Li Ru next to him in a solemn voice: "Wen You, why do I see so many people from the Northern Army along the way? How come I don't see a few Xiliang men?"

I found that Dong Zhuo was wary.

Li Ru was shocked at first, but quickly regained his composure, bowed his hand to Dong Zhuo, and then responded calmly.

"Don't worry, Prime Minister. It's a long road from the palace to the altar. If we just rely on the Xiliang headquarters, we won't have enough manpower."

"Therefore, my subordinates have put more emphasis on arrangements. The Northern Army will be guarding most of the journey ahead. When we arrive at the altar, it will naturally be different."

Dong Zhuo had a high degree of trust in Li Ru.

And this explanation is reasonable.

So with that said.

Dong Zhuo nodded as if he had some understanding, and the tense and serious expression on his face quickly softened, replaced by a bit of a smile.

"Wen You's words make sense. I was too nervous. Now that I think about it, it makes sense. After all, Zhang Ji and Fan Chou have been ordered by me to lead troops to stop Cao's army, while Li Jue and Guo Si are still guarding Liang to the west of Chang'an. State bandits, it is true that there are not many soldiers and horses in Chang'an City, so it is appropriate to use the Northern Army to fill them."

…………

Seeing Dong Zhuo, all doubts disappeared.

Li Ru secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He continued to speak more calmly and calmly: "It has been several years since the Prime Minister first entered Luoyang, and it has been a long time since the Northern Army took refuge under your command. In comparison, it is still worthy of your trust. of."

"If you are worried, wait until the king is crowned king and then transfer the two generals Li Jue and Guo Si back. This way you will be safe."

Speaking of it.

Li Ru paused briefly.

When Dong Zhuo nodded repeatedly, he cupped his hand towards Lu Bu who was on the other side of Dong Zhuo.

Then he said with a smile on his face: "As for General Lu, he is guarding you every step of the way. Even if there are thousands of troops, there is nothing to be afraid of!"

Dong Zhuo laughed loudly after saying this.

He couldn't help but pat his thigh.

"Well said, Wen You's words are very good!"

"My son Fengxian is invincible in the world and has courage that no one can match. Not to mention that everyone in the army is loyal to me. Even if there are thousands of enemies, my son can conquer them all!"

Lu Bu, who was praised by the two men, raised his head proudly, and then nodded slightly to Li Ru.

Such an appearance fell in Dong Zhuo's eyes.

On the contrary, it only increased his trust and confidence in Lu Bu. After all, he knew quite well what kind of temperament this adopted son had. The more arrogant he was, the more sure he was.

But what Dong Zhuo didn't know was.

As early as the day before he arrived in Chang'an City in a hurry, Li Ru and Lu Bu had talked all night long and discussed many details. Every action he made at this moment was carefully planned.

Counting with a heart without a heart.

How could Dong Zhuo be so lucky?

…………

Chang'an Central Street.

Outside the three-story altar.

Huangfu Song, who was dressed as an ordinary soldier and lurking in the crowd in disguise, saw Dong Zhuo and his party who had arrived not far away.

A cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

As a loyal minister and good general of the Han Dynasty, the thing that Huangfu Song regrets most so far is that he did not follow the advice of his subordinates and his son to kill the thief Dong Zhuo in advance and extinguish his potential.

Just because of a moment of indecision and insistence on so-called procedural justice, today's tragic situation of the collapse of the Han Dynasty and the loss of the country has resulted.

Fortunately, a good opportunity came from heaven today.

Thief Dong acted against the will of the people and was unpopular. Even his confidants had to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side. This was a perfect opportunity given by God.

As long as we seize this opportunity, we will show the Dong thief's head to the public to set the record straight.

In the future, under Jiuquan, I will have the face to meet the previous emperors of the Han Dynasty.

I thought so in my heart.

Huangfu Song quietly gave some instructions to the few messengers waiting nearby, and the videos immediately disappeared into the crowd.

Following their obscure movements, the Northern Army soldiers who had been stationed on both sides of the street quietly began to change their formations.

As Dong Zhuo's team continued to advance, the path he took was soon blocked by soldiers, blocking all retreats.

In a trance, a large encirclement was formed that could only move forward without any other way out.

Dong Zhuo, who had been calmed down by Li Ru and was relaxed, did not notice this. He only continued to have thoughts racing in his mind and kept thinking.

…………

After arriving at the altar.

Dong Zhuo looked at the empty three-story high platform, with a little doubt in his eyes. He pointed to the platform in confusion and asked.

"Wen You, the emperor should be present when conferring a king with a different surname. Why is there no one on this high platform now? I wonder where the emperor is now?"

Li Ru quickly rolled off his horse, and then offered his hand to Dong Zhuo.

"Prime Minister, don't be anxious. The emperor has been waiting here for a while. I will go and invite him here!"

After a little comfort with words.Li Ru left Dong Zhuo's side decisively and quickly, strode to the high platform, and confirmed that he was out of Dong Zhuo's attack range and at a safe distance.

Immediately his expression changed.

The original caution and respect disappeared without a trace at this moment, replaced by a solemn face. He straightened his back and stared at Dong Zhuo with sharp eyes like a knife.

Then he took out an edict made of cloth from his arms, and then unfolded it in the eyes of Dong Zhuo, who was confused and didn't know what was going on.

And he read it loudly.

…………

"The Han Dynasty is unfortunate, and the imperial line is out of control. The traitor Dong Zhuo takes advantage of provocations and indulges in harm, causing harm to the Supreme Being. He abuses the people, despises the heaven and the earth, destroys the country and kills people; he defiles the palace and bans, kills living beings; he is ruthless and unkind, and he is full of sins. !”

"Those who act so perversely and usurp the country and are disobedient have committed heinous crimes and are unforgivable. They deserve to be punished by death by both heaven and man!"

"Today, Confucian scholars, following the emperor's secret edict, inherit the loyalty and kindness of Cao family on the outside, and the aspirations of hundreds of officials on the inside, gather righteous men to kill this thief. I hope that the loyal and lofty people will spare no effort to inherit the land of the emperor and empress, and restore our great Han Dynasty!"

It's just a piece of writing about begging for thieves.

Dong Zhuo was stunned on the spot.

The original confusion and confusion had all turned into shock and horror at this moment, his eyes suddenly protruded outwards, and the flesh on his body was trembling uncontrollably.

What kind of bullshit is it to grant a king with a different surname?

This is simply a trap!
It was a trap set by Li Ru, or Cao Ang, who was already on the way, bribed Li Ru to set a trap and wanted his own life.

As for why the people responsible for blocking the streets along the way were all Northern Army soldiers and there was not a single Xiliang Army officer in sight, the reason was explained.

Li Ru seized the time difference and took advantage of the large Xiliang army to be deployed on the east and west sides. He transferred the remaining small group of Xiliang army in the city to other places, thus creating this dead situation.

at this moment.

Dong Zhuo figured everything out.

"Wenyou, why are you like this! I treat you well, you are my family member!"

While muttering to himself and repeating this sentence back and forth, Dong Zhuo quietly reached out and touched the long sword hanging on his waist.

And seeing such a situation.

Li Ru couldn't help but sneered, then raised the edict with both hands high and shouted angrily to the left and right.

"I am a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty. How can I be a member of the family with a usurper like you? Where are the righteous people on the left and right? If I don't take action now, how can I wait?!"

…………

The execution order issued by Li Ru.

Dong Zhuo felt very bad, and his heart was like a huge stone sinking to the bottom of a lake, sinking continuously, making his whole body cold and sweating.

Don't care about that much.

Looking at the Northern Army soldiers who were surrounding them and ready to make a move, no matter how stupid Dong Zhuo was, he knew that he must not fight forcefully at this time.

So without saying anything, he drew the sword from his waist.

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

"Generals, listen to the order, mount your horses immediately, head south, and break out of the encirclement for me!"

"Feng Xian, yes! Feng Xian my son, quickly escort my father away from Chang..."

However, the words were not finished.

Dong Zhuo felt a huge pain in his neck.

The blood gushing out wildly and the Fang Tian painted halberd inserted directly into the neck directly interrupted his words and swallowed up the remaining few words he said.

Dong Zhuo didn't know what was happening with this familiar weapon and the direction from which it was handed.

He looked at Lu Bu, whose face had been splattered with blood, making him look even more ferocious.

He couldn't help but stretched out his right hand and scratched it a few times. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he could only spit out a few mouthfuls of blood.

"Shh!"

Lu Bu, who had already shouldered the heavy responsibility, didn't care about Dong Zhuo's reaction. He decisively drew out Fang Tian's halberd, and then touched it on the chest.

Then he laughed loudly.

"Hahahaha! Old thief, a real man was born between heaven and earth, how can he live in a depressed state for a long time!"

"I, Lu Bu, am a hero. An Ke is your adopted son. Today, I have been ordered to punish thieves. I swear to the people of the world that I am a high-ranking Han official. I am at odds with you, a Han thieves. I wish I could take your dog's head early." !”

…………

Dong Zhuo could no longer hear the rest of the words clearly.

Because he was exhausted.

The huge body suddenly fell from the horse, causing the ground to tremble.

And with Dong Zhuo's death.

The dozens of cavalry and even hundreds of Xiliang infantry who accompanied him were instantly disintegrated.

Lu Bu rode his horse into the crowd, killing them randomly. While reaping lives, Lu Bu yelled wildly.

This was more than just venting, he was feeling aggrieved and angry that Dong Zhuo had suppressed for so long.

At the same time, he was also deliberately performing for others to show his determination to Xiang Han. The more exaggerated the performance, the easier it would be to clear his name afterwards.

It can only be said that Lu Bu is indeed a smart man.

…………

After Dong Zhuo was executed.

The remaining Xiliang army in Chang'an City collapsed directly.

The Northern Army quickly took over the entire Chang'an City, and in the shortest possible time issued an order to close all the gates of Chang'an City, restrict entry and exit, and impose a curfew.

After Li Ru, Lu Bu, Huangfu Song and others sat down to discuss.

They even decisively dispatched men, even if they were traveling at night, to deliver the news to Cao Jun's camp as quickly as possible and send an invitation to Cao Ang to enter the city. This was also to prevent the Xiliang army on the east and west sides from reacting. After returning to the army, Chang'an City The Northern Army alone cannot hold it.

At the same time, Li Ru directly cut off the logistics supplies of Zhang Ji, Fan Chou and other troops on the front line to ensure that Cao Jun could win a quick victory.

The many arrangements are extremely meticulous.

In order to make meritorious service and to clear his name, Li Ru tried his best.

As for Dong Zhuo, who was killed by Lu Bu.

Then he returned to his original destination.

In a grand bonfire, it turned into black smoke and charcoal on the ground.

The fire shot straight into the sky, and the cheers in the city were as loud as the mountains and the sea, everyone was celebrating that this demon king who had caused harm to the two capitals of the Han Dynasty was finally ripped out of his heart and lungs, and the sky lantern was lit.

…………

The bonfire gradually went out late into the night.

At this time, it was located in Dong Zhuo's old residence.

Li Ru, who had already sent Huang Fusong away, sat across from Lu Bu in the study, discussing the second mission he had received from Cao Ang.

Let the Emperor of Chang'an never return to the Central Plains!
