Rampage through the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 120 Yuan Shu's Assassination
Yuan Shao was at the front of the team, and he was proud of himself at this time. Although he failed to rescue Emperor Xian and let Dong Zhuo escape, he took back the capital of the Han Dynasty and forced Dong Zhuo into Hangu Pass. For Yuan Shao, The strategic goal has been achieved, and now Dong Zhuo's power has been weakened, and the strength of the princes of the world has also been somewhat damaged in this battle. Through this alliance, he has become the leader of the princes of the world by virtue of his family background.

When Yuan Shao was complacent, a group of ordinary people rushed over from a distance.

"Do you know, Zhang Shenxian has entered the city!"

"Of course I know, hurry up, let's go and see what Zhang Shenxian looks like!"

"That's right, Zhang Shenxian is our benefactor. If it weren't for him, this city of Luoyang might be gone!"

……

Yuan Shao listened from a distance, not knowing what it meant, so he sent people to inquire, and soon someone would report that Zhang De, the prefect of Beihai, had just entered the city, and these people were there to welcome Zhang De!
Welcome Zhang De!Yuan Shao was stunned immediately, not only Yuan Shao was stunned, Tian Feng and others were also stunned.What are these people doing to meet Zhang De? This Zhang De is the prefect of Beihai. There is no reason for the people of Luoyang to meet him!Besides, Zhang De is still Zhang Rang's son, the common people should hate the eunuch, why are they all going to welcome him?
After sending people to inquire again, Yuan Shao found out that these people were all ordinary people who saved their homes during the fire in Luoyang.But now, the common people naturally attributed the heavy rain to Zhang De.

After hearing this news, Yuan Shao felt an indescribable feeling in his heart, was he angry?No, I don't seem to be angry.Is it helpless?No, this crusade against Dong Zhuo has benefited a lot, so there is nothing to be helpless.Suddenly, Yuan Shao realized that this feeling was jealousy!

Yuan Shao lived in a superior environment since he was a child. The Yuan family's "four generations and three princes" were very prominent, with countless disciples and old officials.Both his father and uncle are the third princes, and Yuan Shao is the eldest son in the family, and he has been loved by his family since he was a child. Therefore, only others have always been jealous of Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao has never been jealous of others.

But this time is different. Yuan Shao clearly felt that he was jealous of Zhang De. Zhang De was just a eunuch, and a large number of people welcomed him when he entered the city. Looking at himself, he is also the leader of the alliance, and "four generations and three princes" , but no one came to welcome him, which made Yuan Shao feel very unbalanced.

Of course Yuan Shao didn't know what the common people were thinking.In the eyes of these common people, they were living a good life. If Yuan Shao, the lord, had not brought all the princes to attack Luoyang, Dong Zhuo would not have escaped, his house would not have been burned, and his wife and children would not have been separated. Therefore, the common people in Luoyang City should hate Yuan Shao the most!

After Zhang De set up camp, he immediately sent people to the Yellow River to inquire about the news. Zhang De estimated that Fang Dali should come as well.And he was going to sneak into the treasure house of Lingdi to find out, but was stopped by Zhang Rang.According to Zhang Rang's intention, don't startle the snakes now. When Fang Dali's boat arrives, he will send soldiers to guard the main exit outside Luoyang City, and then move the treasure away as quickly as possible.

Besides, Yuan Shu was the last one to enter the city because he had to escort food and grass.When he entered the city, it was already sunset.

The desolate city of Luoyang looked extraordinarily dead against the backdrop of the setting sun. When a gust of wind blew, Yuan Shu couldn't help but shiver, thinking, is this the prosperous Luoyang back then?
Think about when I first came to Luoyang, when I was still young, Luoyang was so prosperous at that time, and my father Yuan Feng had just been promoted from a servant to Sikong, ranking among the three princes.At that time, the Yuan family was very beautiful. Thinking about the envious eyes of the children of those aristocratic families at that time, Yuan Shu was filled with emotion.

In a corner in the distance, a young man was staring at Yuan Shu, who was covered in golden armor, with hatred radiating from Li Yan's eyes.The young man took out his bow from behind, bent his bow and set an arrow at Yuan Shu in the distance.

At this time, a gust of wind blew up the sand on the ground, and just rolled Yuan Shu into it. Yuan Shu paused immediately and rubbed his eyes. It seemed that Yuan Shu was fascinated by the sand.

The young man saw that this was a good opportunity, and immediately aimed at Yuan Shu, and shot the arrow with a "whoosh".

However, people are not as good as heaven, and when Li Yan shot the arrow, a black cat suddenly jumped out from the side of the road and rushed to Yuan Shu's horse. Yuan Shu's horse was startled by the sudden black cat, Frightened, he lifted his front hooves off the ground and stood up, and the young man's arrow arrived at this time, hitting Yuan Shu's horse just in time, and Yuan Shu escaped a catastrophe.

Yuan Shu was taken aback for a moment, but then he understood immediately, quickly rolled to the ground, hid among the soldiers and guards, and shouted loudly: "Catch the assassin, quickly catch the assassin!"

The young man in the distance gritted his teeth resentfully, and thought to himself: "Yuan Shu, you are lucky this time, I, Li Yan, will pay for the lives of the 10,000+ people in Wancheng sooner or later!" Looking at Yuan Shu's guards at this time Come towards yourself, and immediately disappear in the alley!
……

Yuan Shu searched for assassins everywhere, and the camp of the coalition army quarreled. Originally, after arriving in Luoyang, everyone was ready to take a good rest, but Cao Cao called them to the camp of the Chinese army.Because Cao Cao wanted to pursue Dong Zhuo.

"Everyone, now that Dong Thief has been defeated and fled to Chang'an, we should take advantage of the victory to pursue and rescue Your Majesty!" Cao Cao said to the crowd.

"Meng De, our army has been exhausted after repeated battles, and now we need to rest. Besides, Dong Zhuo has been withdrawn from Luoyang for several days, so we may not be able to catch up with him!" Yuan Shao said.

"Dong Zhuo forced the big households in Luoyang to march together, so the speed must have slowed down. It must be that Dong Thief and the others have not entered Hangu Pass yet! Maybe we can take advantage of the situation and attack Hangu Pass!" Cao Cao continued to persuade.But the princes were indifferent.

Looking at all this, Zhang De thought to himself, "Cao Mengde, Cao Mengde, he won't go if you say so!"

Sure enough, although the princes did not speak, none of them wanted to pursue Dong Zhuo.Even Tao Qian and others had no intention of pursuing Dong Zhuo.

In fact, the princes have their own thoughts at this time.Yuan Shao believed that the capture of Luoyang consumed the strength of the feudal lords and Dong Zhuo, and his goal had been achieved, while Han Fu and others followed Yuan Shao's wink and acted. I was already very tired, and I planned to go to Luoyang to have a good rest, but now I don't have the energy to chase Dong Zhuo anymore!
Cao Cao looked at the crowd and said angrily: "Shuzi is not enough to plan!" After speaking, he led his troops to chase Dong Zhuo alone.
