Chapter 259 Dong Zhuo Enters Luoyang
"This is."

Seeing the scene of soldiers from both sides fighting, Xu Jing was so scared that he swallowed his saliva, stopped immediately, and his hands couldn't stop shaking.

The most urgent task is to find the general.

Xu Jing held his trembling arms tightly, he knew that it would be useless if he went forward, and there was a great possibility that he would become a ghost who died tragically under the knife.

But the general was not in the general's mansion.

It was night time, and it was impossible for the general to stay in the palace.

There is only one possibility, the General of Chariots and Cavalry’s Mansion!
In a moment of extreme anxiety, Xu Jing's brain was working rapidly and he immediately rushed towards the General of Chariots and Cavalry's Mansion.

However, when Xu Jing arrived at the gate of the General of Chariots and Cavalry's Mansion, he saw a scene that made him sigh inwardly.

The door of the mansion, which should have been closed, was open at this moment, and the threshold was stained red with blood. Several corpses were lying in a mess, and three or five soldiers were carrying the corpses up and down.

Xu Jing secretly said that this was not good.

what is the problem? !
Without time to think, he took two steps forward, grabbed a soldier, and asked hurriedly:
"May I ask what happened?!"

The soldiers raised their eyes and looked at Xu Jing.

"It turned out to be Minister Xu. Just now, a group of assassins disguised themselves as nobles, saying that they were commissioned by General Zhang to come to see the general and the general of chariots and cavalry. Then, when they were forced into a desperate situation, they counterattacked before their death and killed several of my brothers."

As he said this, he gritted his teeth, as if his back teeth were about to break.

"Is the general okay?"

"Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang are going to have their brains blown out!"

"Dong Zhuo is still outside the city, eyeing us covetously!"

Xu Jing's back was covered in cold sweat and his face was pale. Although he was not good at military strategy and was just average in political affairs, he had read a lot of books. Perhaps it was the danger that stimulated his talent. As soon as he turned around, he thought of the extremely terrifying consequences.

If He Jin had not taken action immediately to appease Zhang Zhang and Wu Kuang's troops, the result would have led to an extremely bad situation. Communications were already a problem in the Han Dynasty, let alone at night. If Dong Zhuo sent people to trick the city gates open, then the entire Luoyang would likely fall into Dong Zhuo's hands. He knew very well the consequences of falling into Dong Zhuo's hands.

Why is the thousand-mile grass so green? I have been fortune-telling for ten days, but it will not grow.

This is a nursery rhyme that became popular after Dong Zhuo’s dictatorship in the dream. Even the nursery rhymes sung by children were cursing Dong Zhuo to death. It can be seen that the scene created by Dong Zhuo was extremely cruel and horrifying.

"Take me to see the general!"

Without waiting for the soldiers to reply, Xu Jing shouted.

"promise"

The soldiers had no idea what Xu Jing was thinking, they just felt that Xu Jing was particularly concerned about He Jin's safety, which made them feel ashamed.

"Minister Xu, please follow me."

The soldiers did not dare to delay, and he led Xu Jing through the gate of the General of Chariots and Cavalry's Mansion.

"General, it's in this room."

The soldier made a gesture of invitation.

Xu Jing nodded and thanked him. When he pushed open the door and saw the inside of the room clearly, his pupils widened to their maximum.

The room, which should have been luxuriously decorated, was now filled with blood. The bloodstains and scattered weapons all over the floor indicated that a fierce battle had taken place here.

As for the great general He Jin.
He Jin, who had just recovered from an old injury, suffered a new injury. His face was pale, his back was leaning against the wall, a sharp blade was stuck in his abdomen, and blood had dyed his clothes red.

Fortunately, a doctor took out some bottles and jars and seemed to be trying to treat the patient.

When He Jin saw Xu Jing standing at the door, no matter how weak and pale he looked, he still smiled at Xu Jing. He even raised his arm with all his strength and waved to Xu Jing.

"Wen Xiu, come here."

This sound brought Xu Jing's thoughts back to the present.

"General." Xu Jing hurriedly walked to He Jin's side, half squatted, his eyes fixed on He Jin's abdomen. Fortunately, he didn't hurt the vital parts, but the long knife pierced into the abdomen, which was a serious injury anyway, and it was heartbreaking.

Xu Jing was about to speak.

He Jin raised his hand and pointed at his mouth.

Xu Jing was particularly familiar with this action. It meant that He Jin wanted to speak and wanted Xu Jing to listen to him finish first.

He Jin was sweating profusely from the pain, his facial features were distorted by the pain, but he still tried to squeeze out a gentle voice.
"Wen Xiu, Liu Xuande saved me again."

"?"

The sudden words left Xu Jing confused. What did this matter have to do with his lord?
Suddenly he seemed to remember something, so he looked at the doctor beside him, and the doctor smiled at Xu Jing.

He Jin's words followed closely

"Yes, this man is the doctor who came out of Jincheng in Liangzhou. If it weren't for him, I would have died."

Sure enough
Xu Jing nodded in his heart, but the crisis was not alleviated at this time. The battle between Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang was the top priority.

As if seeing Xu Jing's worry, He Jin smiled and said

"Please be at ease, Wenxiu. Shuda has led the troops to quell the situation."

Shuda is the pen name of He Miao.

Hearing this, Xu Jing was not relieved but became anxious. You know, He Miao died at the hands of Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang. Could it really succeed to let the garrison troops pacify the five schools of the Northern Army that were out fighting?
"General, let me go!" Xu Jing volunteered.

However, He Jin shook his head and said, "I have something else to entrust to Wen Xiu."

What could be more important than ending the war between Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang?
Xu Jing's eyes were full of confusion.

He Jin reached out and held Xu Jing's hand, "I want you to give something to Liu Xuande."

Xu Jing refused without even thinking, "General, Luoyang is in deep danger right now, how can I abandon you and go to Xixianghou? You can just send a personal guard, why do you need me!"

He Jin showed a relieved expression, but his next words made Xu Jing stunned.

"Wen Xiu, say hello to Xi Xianghou for me."

"Greetings? General, I'm not refusing—"

Before he could finish his words, Xu Jing felt a pain in his neck, his eyes went dark, and his body fell forward uncontrollably. Before his consciousness faded, he thought to himself, "Oh no! I've been ambushed!"
"General, are you really okay?"

The soldier standing behind Xu Jing asked.

He Jin said: "Luoyang is about to undergo a great change, and I don't want Xu Wenxiu to be stuck in the quagmire."

After saying this, he took a deep look at the unconscious Xu Jing, feeling mixed emotions of regret, admiration, and shame.

Liu Xuande, Liu Xuande, why can you make Xu Wenxiu obsessed with you?
I'm not as good as you.
Suddenly He Jin's face became even more distorted
"It hurts so fucking much!"

The news of the battle between Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang was like a rain shower that the cracked earth had been waiting for. The soldiers who had been dormant for a long time spared no effort in spreading the rumor that Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang were causing chaos. Even General He Miao was not immune to the rumor and was killed by Zhang Zhang and Wu Kuang after word of mouth spread among them.

The city defense troops stationed on the Luoyang city wall were instantly panicked. It was common knowledge that Wu Kuang, Zhang Zhang and He Miao had always been at odds with each other.

What's more, a troop with the word "Dong" on its flag appeared under the city wall.

The leader called himself Li Ru. He held up a secret order and said that he came to provide assistance on the orders of the General of Chariots and Cavalry.

It was already dark and they couldn't see anything clearly. The worried city defense troops didn't find anything wrong with the secret order, so they opened the city gate.

Walking on the streets of Luoyang, Dong Zhuo sniffed the air and laughed out loud.

"Hahaha, Luoyang!"
