Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 105 Coercing the Emperor
Chapter [-]
At this time, Zhang Rang had no time to think about it, and went straight to the residence of Queen Mother He.And the palace gate behind Zhang Rang was trembling under the attack of a group of generals, obviously it couldn't last long.

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, something is wrong. The officials and soldiers in the city suddenly rebelled for some reason. The general went to suppress him and was killed by the rebel army. Now the rebellion army is attacking the palace. The queen mother quickly asked me to escape. Go to the palace, there is still a glimmer of hope, and it will be too late." Zhang Rang came to the Empress Dowager He, and fell to the ground, kowtowed, tears streaming down his face.

"What? What did you say? Brother, what happened to him?" Empress Dowager He obviously couldn't bear such a blow, and couldn't react for a while.Just imagine that this woman was the lord of the six palaces yesterday and was the mother of the world, but now she suddenly became a bereaved dog. What kind of situation is this? Ordinary people only need to encounter this kind of encounter once, and I am afraid that they will be unbearable and faint. past.It is a miracle that this Empress Dowager He can still hold on.

However, Zhang Rang was so anxious at this time that he could no longer care about the feelings of the queen mother, so he winked at the eunuchs next to him, and some eunuchs rushed over, intending to set up the queen mother and take him away forcibly.

"The empress dowager made atonement, the servant had no choice but to do it, and please ask the empress dowager Haihan." Zhang Rang only said such a non-painful sentence when the eunuchs set up a stall with the empress dowager, which was regarded as an explanation to the empress dowager.Zhang Rang didn't want to waste time on Empress Dowager He. He still wanted to coerce Liu Bian, the present son, and Liu Bian's younger brother Liu Xie. Those two talents were Zhang Rang's magic weapon to save his life. No more.

At the same time, a group of generals in the General's Mansion finally broke through the gate of the palace. The fierce soldiers swept into the corners of the palace like a flood from an embankment, killing anyone they saw and trampling wantonly. The majesty of the high Han Palace seems to be able to vent the anger in the hearts of the soldiers.

"You follow me." After Cao Cao rushed into the palace, he was not in a hurry to kill, but directly led his troops towards the palace where the queen mother was. The reason is very simple. The current emperor is still young, so he lives with the queen mother. Together, a group of generals broke into the palace now, it is inevitable that they will be regarded as rebellion, but as long as they can control the emperor in their hands, they will have the right to speak. Even if they really rebel, they can still say that they are serving the king.

However, what made Cao Cao helpless was that the soldiers searched the entire palace, but only rescued the Empress Dowager He alone. As for the emperor and the emperor's younger brother Liu Xie, there was no trace of him.

It turned out that when Zhang Rang kidnapped Lingdi's two sons and wanted to escape.Suddenly found that the officers and soldiers had already killed them. As a last resort, they could only find a corner of the palace to hide. Taking advantage of the soldiers' unpreparedness, they got out of a dog hole opened in the palace.It is really embarrassing that the emperor of the mighty Han Dynasty ended up in such a miserable state all of a sudden.

In the imperial palace, there was a sound of shouting and killing, and the flames shot up into the sky. But outside Luoyang City, a team composed of light cavalry was approaching Luoyang. It was He Jin and his Xiliang Army.

"Li Ru, why do I feel that this time is a bit mysterious? You must know that Luoyang's northern army is well-equipped and has extraordinary combat effectiveness. It is known as the most elite army of the Han Dynasty. Are we being too reckless in doing this?" On the horse , Dong Zhuo suddenly asked Li Ru on the side.

"Hahaha, the general is too worried. Since ancient times, whoever has achieved great things has not risked the disgrace of the world to create it. If the general wants to achieve great things, how can he not take some risks. Besides, we are now in Luoyang , not to turn against them right away. We must first grasp the emperor. As long as we hold the emperor in our hands, the general's words are the imperial decree. Anyone who dares to disobey is the rebellion of the court. The general has nothing to worry about. As for the northern army, although equipped Excellent, but He Jin regards the Northern Army as a private concubine, and cannot hide it. The Northern Army has never fought any battles in these years. This kind of army is just a bride who has made a rouge, waiting for the arrival of the general. What is there to worry about, General?" Li Ru laughed and explained to Dong Zhuo with a teasing face.

"Hahaha, Li Ru, Li Ru, you are still so funny, I am completely relieved after you say that." Dong Zhuo laughed, full of confidence.

"Look, general, Luoyang is on fire. Could it be that He Jin and Shi Changshi are on fire together? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that cannot be missed." Suddenly seeing the fire in Luoyang's direction, Li Ru couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart.

"Pass my military order, the army hastened to Luoyang, tomorrow I will go to the village in Luoyang city."

Following Dong Zhuo's order, the Xiliang soldiers behind him moved quickly, the sound of horseshoes resounded in all directions, and the ground began to tremble violently.

At this time, the Luoyang Imperial Palace was already in chaos, and all the generals who were originally murderous were also panicked at this time, because the emperor was lost.If the emperor was in his hands, these generals would naturally have nothing to fear. They could justify killing anyone, and even directly said that they were killed according to the order, and they didn't even need to explain the reasoning. , a charge of treason can't run away.

"The top priority is to find the emperor as soon as possible. The emperor will not be able to get far away. We will send troops to search everywhere immediately. As long as we find His Majesty before dawn and give an explanation to the princes and ministers, everything can be saved." Seeing the generals Everyone looked gloomy, Cao Cao stood up and proposed first.

"Brother Meng De is right, we will do this. Immediately send soldiers and horse officials around to look for His Majesty's traces, and report back as soon as there is news." Yuan Shao finally reacted at this time and immediately issued an order.After all, without the emperor, no matter how powerful his old Yuan family was, they would not be able to support the Han Dynasty.The emperor is the banner of the Han Dynasty and the foundation of the strength of the Han Dynasty.

In the dark night, outside Luoyang City, beside an unknown road, three figures are staggering with difficulty. These three people are unkempt but luxuriously dressed. It is the aristocratic temperament, the life of a beggar, giving people a strange feeling.These three people were none other than Zhang Rang and the eleven or twelve-year-old emperor Liu Bian, and the emperor's younger brother Liu Xie.

"Zhang told us where are we going? I'm tired and can't go anymore. Go and get me something to eat." Emperor Liu Bian obviously didn't want to leave anymore.This Liu Bian was born as a prince, living the days when he stretched out his hands in clothes and opened his mouth when he ate. He suffered such fatigue there, and even traveled on foot. If it wasn't for the rebellious soldiers rushing into the palace last night, Liu Bian was really panicked and helpless. How could he make up his mind? Follow Zhang Rang to drill the dog hole, even walk so far.However, after walking for a while now, Liu Bian's sleepiness came up, and his delicate temperament naturally broke out.

"Your Majesty, if you bear it any longer, there will be a village not far ahead. When you arrive at the village, I will let your majesty eat something." Zhang Rang deceived the emperor with a smile on his face.

After all, Zhang Rang didn't go out of the palace very often, and he actually didn't know much more about the world outside the palace than Liu Bian, so how could he know where there were villages.

While the two were talking, the east had begun to shine, and a new day had arrived.

At this moment, the ground under the feet of the three of them trembled, and then there was a loud sound of horseshoes. It was obvious that a brigade of army horses was rushing over from the front.As soon as Zhang Rang raised his eyes, he saw dust flying in the distance, and countless Xiliang cavalry charged straight towards him. Among the cavalry, a large flag was erected high, with a big and vigorous character on the flag. Yes, it is a "Dong" character.Zhang Rang instantly understood that it was Dong Zhuo's Xiliang soldiers who had arrived.

"Look, Your Majesty, that's Dong Zhuo, the governor of Xiliang. He has led his troops to the king. We are saved." Seeing the arrival of Xiliang soldiers, Zhang Rang's plump face finally glowed.

However, at this moment, groups of soldiers suddenly appeared from nowhere, surrounded Zhang Rang, Liu Bian and Liu Xie Tuan.It turned out that Yuan Shao led his troops to catch up.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for the late rescue. Your Majesty, please go back to the palace with me." Yuan Shao led a group of soldiers and knelt down in front of Liu Bian. Before Liu Bian could answer, he hurriedly asked the soldiers beside him After winking, two soldiers rushed forward, intending to drag Liu Bian back to the palace.

It's no wonder Yuan Shao is anxious, seeing that Dong Zhuo's Xiliang Army has arrived in Luoyang, and the troops of other princes are still far away. Although Luoyang's Northern Army is well-equipped and well-trained, the Northern Army is He Jin's old base , among which the forces of all parties were mixed, and the old Yuan family wanted to control the Northern Army without coordination for a period of time, but it was absolutely impossible.But now that He Jin was suddenly killed, Yuan Shao had no time to control the Northern Army. If Dong Zhuo were to snatch the emperor away again, Yuan Shao's hard work during this period of time would probably make Dong Zhuo easier.Thinking of this, Yuan Shao moved, wanting to take back the emperor, and then stick to Luoyang, waiting for reinforcements.

However, it was obviously too late for Yuan Shao to do all this at this time.Just when the two soldiers of Yuan Shao were approaching Han Emperor Liu Bian, there was a neighing of a war horse, and they suddenly wanted to pull up. Crashed to the side, this horse is Dong Zhuo's beloved horse from the Western Regions, the legendary Red Rabbit and BMW.And on top of the red rabbit, sat a knight, it was Dong Zhuo himself.

"Bold Yuan Shao, what are you going to do?" Dong Zhuo sat on the red rabbit horse, looked at Yuan Shao on the side, and asked sharply. Following Dong Zhuo's shout, many Xiliang soldiers rushed over and took Yuan Shao and Yuan Shao away. The soldiers and horses who came surrounded them, as if Dong Zhuo's order would kill Yuan Shao's gang and bleed into rivers.
