The Horse of the Three Kingdoms Treads the World

() Dingding Avenue is the largest street in Chang'an City, with a distance of nearly eight feet to the left and right, enough for four carriages to pass in parallel.During the day, this street is always crowded with people coming and going, but after dusk, there are no pedestrians on this street, and it looks extraordinarily empty and quiet.

At this quiet moment, a large and comfortable carriage appeared at one end of the street under the guard of hundreds of armored elites.It was Dong Zhuo who came. Although Chang'an City is now completely under his control, he is still very careful when traveling. After all, he has too many enemies. Assassins, that is, those court officials who have been deprived of the power of the court by him and who are powerless to resist are also the objects of his guard.So every time he goes out, his guard work is the most important.

Surrounding the carriage were all elites among the elites of the Xiliang Army, and they were the most trusted confidants who had followed Dong Zhuo the longest.These people Dong Zhuo did not send them to the battlefield to fight against the Kwantung Allied Forces, but kept them all by his side to protect himself, which is enough to show that he values ​​his own safety.And these troops are the sharpest in the Xiliang army, whether it is armor or weapons, it can be said that Dong Zhuo kept the most effective troops in his hands by his side.

Dong Zhuo believed that as long as this guard team of nearly a thousand people accompanied him, no one in the world with the same number of troops could kill him, and now that Chang'an was under his control, naturally he didn't have to worry about running out suddenly Such a large enemy army attacked him.

Because of his confidence in the protection of this team, Dong Zhuo didn't think about his own safety while sitting in the car, but was thinking about how to deal with Ma Yue's matter this time.He was quite displeased with what Ma Yue did today, even if Dong Huang was at fault and shouldn't have bullied him, Ma Yue has no right to detain him.Don't look at the monk's face but look at the Buddha's face, Dong Huang is his nephew, how could Ma Yue act so boldly as a subordinate.What's more, when he sent someone to negotiate later, Ma Yue dared to refuse to let him go, which made it even more difficult for Dong Zhuo to accept.

"This horse has made a lot of contributions by himself, and his father and brother are all in Chang'an, so he is getting more and more courageous. It seems that my decision not to let them lead troops eastward is completely correct. If we let them continue to make meritorious service and establish prestige in the army, I am afraid that the Ma family will become a hidden danger in our Xiliang army." Dong Zhuo leaned half on the wall of the carriage, closed his eyes and thought: "This time I will We should take this opportunity to hit him hard and let him know who he is. This time, not only do we have to take him out of his hands, but we also have to find a reason to punish him!" Dong Zhuo made up his mind. A sneer broke out, and a cold light flashed in his slightly opened eyes.Whenever he has such an expression, it means that some people who are not trusted by him will suffer.

But just when Dong Zhuo secretly decided that he was going to beat Ma Yue, three abrupt bangs of clappers came from the suddenly silent street. "Bang bang bang!" The three sounds were particularly harsh in such a quiet environment, and everyone couldn't help but tremble, and then a sudden change occurred.

Behind some shops and buildings on both sides of the seemingly empty street, many people with bows and crossbows suddenly appeared. The people in the middle rushed away.At the same time, there was a sudden cry of killing from behind them, and hundreds of men with various weapons shouted and waved their weapons and slammed them fiercely.

And right in front of them, hundreds of horses also appeared, and on the horses were knights sitting proudly, holding long knives and showing murderous intent.In just a blink of an eye, this team fell into a situation where they were surrounded by enemies.

This was obviously beyond the expectations of these guards. They never imagined that someone would set up an ambush early today and set up such a net to ambush themselves.For the Xiliang army, they were still wary when they were in Luoyang. After all, it already belonged to the hinterland of the Central Plains, and it was the capital of the Han Dynasty for more than two hundred years. resist.But since arriving in Chang'an, their nerves have relaxed a lot, because after all, this place is not far from Xiliang, but for those officials, it is out of their territory, so I wonder what else they will do Is something bold coming?

Therefore, even though they were going out at such a night, although they still guarded Dong Zhuo's carriage as usual, their attention was obviously not comparable to that of the past.They hadn't been able to react correctly until the sound of the clapper, but at this time, the random arrows on both sides had already arrived.

Many guards were shot by arrows before they had time to react.Fortunately, the armor they wore was very strong, so except for a few unlucky people who fell off their horses because they were shot in the face, the others were only slightly injured or frightened. Did not disrupt their formation.

But these men and horses who ambushed them obviously knew this, so after the first wave of arrows, they didn't gather again, but quickly shouted and charged over, thus forming a four-sided formation with the men and horses attacking from the front and rear sides. The situation of siege.

The Xiliang army who had been caught off guard didn't react as they should have until this time. They immediately shrank and put on a defensive posture.At the same time, someone straightened their spears and surrounded the team to ensure that the first wave of the enemy's attack would not be able to successfully break into their defense line.

But this can only defend against the pawns coming from the left, right and rear. The cavalry who are galloping are the key to this attack.With the power of a long-distance attack, they quickly rushed into the rear of the Xiliang army's guard formation, and then used the momentum to knock many people off their horses.Obviously, this cavalry team is also a seasoned veteran, not only good at seizing the opportunity, but also very capable on horseback.

Immediately, a guard general at the rear spoke loudly: "Meet the enemy with a long spear, and chop a horse's hoof with a long knife. Be sure to stop their attack!"

As for the other three sides, the two sides have already fought in a group at this time. Because they were passive from the beginning and were also at a disadvantage in numbers, the current situation is that the Xiliang army can only resist and it is difficult to counterattack.

Dong Zhuo, who was sitting in the car, felt dizzy when he saw this, and he also had a doubt: "Whose person is this, dare to assassinate me so openly? How did they know about my itinerary?" , actually set up an ambush here?" One must know that he appeared here at this time only out of a moment of anger, could it be that the other party was able to predict and set up an ambush here early?

But after thinking about it, Dong Zhuo seemed to have guessed the root cause of the matter: "Could it be these people sent by Ma Yue? I am sure that I will come out suddenly. I am afraid that Ma Yue who detained Dong Juan is the only one. But why did he want to?" How do you do this?" Although he was under siege from all sides, Dong Zhuo didn't worry too much, instead he was thinking about who planned this assassination, so that he could get rid of that guy later.

This is also due to his trust in these guards under his command. He believes that as long as they resist for a while, and after they gain a firm foothold, these elites in the Xiliang army will naturally take advantage of the situation to fight back, thus completely annihilating these sneak attackers .Moreover, Dong Zhuo knew better that Chang'an City now belonged to him. Once the defenders in the city knew that they had encountered an assassination attack, they would definitely arrive as soon as possible. The first batch of reinforcements was almost here?

So Dong Zhuo was not worried about his situation at all at this time, but was constantly calculating and guessing the identity of the culprit behind the scenes who dared to assassinate him.However, regardless of whether it was an ambush set by Ma Yue or not, Dong Zhuo was already thinking of eradicating this counselor who was already a threat to his rule.

The battle situation was just as Dong Zhuo had expected. With the deepening of the battle, those assassins had lost their advantage in the surprise attack, and their sharpness just now had also suffered setbacks, so the attack naturally became slow.The Xiliang guards who had stabilized had already started to counterattack in an orderly manner. Enemies were constantly eliminated by them, and it was no longer possible for those people to pose any threat to Dong Zhuo.

And then, something happened that made the Xiliang guards even more excited. Right in front of them, a team of two to three hundred people rushed straight over.Looking at the clothes of this team, one can tell that they are the Xiliang Army's own members.Immediately, someone even recognized the identity of the leading general at a glance: "It's General Lu Brui who is here!"

Hearing that Lu Bu had arrived, the morale of the soldiers was boosted even more. Although Dong Zhuo had some complaints about Lu Bu, in the eyes of the soldiers, this general who had defeated many enemy generals in a row at Hulao Pass was the real God of War. .Now that he leads people to help, he must be able to take down or kill all these assassins in a blink of an eye?

With the morale boosted, the Xiliang guards counterattacked even more sharply. In the blink of an eye, dozens of assassins were cut down again, and they were driven out of Zhangxu.And these assassins didn't seem to notice that someone was coming behind them, and they still rushed forward again regardless, as if they only identified Dong Zhuo in the car as their goal.

However, Dong Zhuo's heart in the car was lifted with the appearance of Lu Bu. If he remembered correctly, this place should not be where Lu Bu is patrolling today.His appearance was really unexpected, and he was still somewhat suspicious of Lu Bu.

At this time, Lu Bu had already rushed behind those assassins, and then something happened that surprised all the Xiliang guards. They suddenly let Lu Bu and his subordinates in, and the latter did not fight them. , but rushed straight to the Xiliang guards, with a flash of the halberd in his hand, it had already plunged into the heart of a Xiliang guard who was still smiling, and picked up his whole body!
