My Three Kingdoms is a bit fierce
Chapter 54
The Northern Expeditionary Army arrived in time, and Dong Zhuojun did not cause much damage and losses to the people.
For the arrival of the Northern Army, the vast majority of the people in Luoyang were in a complicated mood of excitement and worry. They were excited that Dong Zhuojun, who usually plagued them, had finally suffered retribution; And the worry is that they don't know how the Northern Army will treat them ordinary people, if this Northern Army is also as arrogant and domineering as Dong Zhuojun, then it is really a wolf but a tiger.
The streets were deserted, and basically no people dared to go out. Everyone hid in their homes, looking through the crack in the door with complicated eyes at the iron cavalry of the Northern Expeditionary Army passing in front of the door from time to time.
How these Northern Expeditionary Army treated the people, everyone does not know for the time being. However, the first impression of the Northern Army to the people of Luoyang was majestic and imposing.
"Good boy! These cavalry are really scary! No wonder Dong Zhuo's army was defeated! In the guest inn, a shopkeeper looked at the passing iron cavalry of the Northern Army through the crack in the door, and couldn't help but sigh.
The other shopkeeper nodded sympathetically, and then said mysteriously, "General Zhengbei once came to our inn, do you know?"
"Really! Tell me what's going on?
So the shopkeeper said the scene when Chen Chu first came to Luoyang as if he were a treasure. In the beginning, there was only one audience, but later on, the guests who stayed in the store also gathered around.
"This little brother, you're not bragging, are you?" A guest looked visibly incredulous.
Questioned, the shopkeeper immediately swore by the sky.
Seeing that the shopkeeper swore by it, the customer still felt a little incredulous, so he turned his attention to the shopkeeper. "Shopkeeper, you said, is this true?"
Everyone's eyes immediately converged on the shopkeeper who was yawning on the side.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, the shopkeeper took a sip of tea very pretentiously, and just when everyone was so anxious that he said slowly: "There is indeed such a thing." This general and our host are also good friends. Hearing
this, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The reason why they care so much about this matter is purely out of their own safety. If Chen Chu really has a good relationship with this store, then the personal and property safety of the merchants who live in the store will be guaranteed.
When I came to the treasury, I saw a mess in the large warehouse, and the ground was full of turned wooden boxes and strings of coins. However, the treasury did not lose much, most of the reserves and the people's fat and ointment that Dong Zhuo had looted over the years were still there, and a small part of them that had been looted by Song Xian's troops were basically confiscated.
Suddenly seeing this mountain of money, including Chen Chu, all the soldiers couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. However, fortunately, Chen Chu's military discipline in the Northern Expedition was extremely strict, and there were no looting incidents.
Chen Chu didn't stay here long. Leaving 5,000 people to guard the treasury, Chen Chu then led the rest of the horses to leave.
It took more than half a day for the Northern Army to basically purge Dong Zhuojun who remained in Luoyang. At this time, Luoyang City was already completely under the control of the Northern Army.
Chen Chu gathered the generals in the general's mansion on the edge of the palace. This general's mansion originally belonged to He Jin, and after Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, He Jin was killed, so this general's mansion was idle. Now this general's mansion has become Chen Chu's temporary residence in Luoyang.
"The chaos in Luoyang has basically calmed down. I decided to continue the pursuit of Dong Zhuojun to the west. Chen Chu sat on the main seat and said to the military generals at the head of the head.
Fu Zhu, who was sitting at the head of the right, immediately hugged his fist at Chen Chu and said, "The lord is wise." Dong Zhuo hijacked the emperor and the courtiers and officials, and we can't sit idly by. Besides, Dong Zhuo and his entourage are full of miscellaneous items, and our army should be able to catch up with them in a hurry with light horses.
Chen Chu nodded, and then ordered; Mr. Frustration, Mr. Yide.
The two of them immediately came out of the ranks, "The lord (eldest brother)." "
You two stay in Luoyang, and I will give you 20,000 horses."
"Yes." Frustrated and immediately agreed. But Zhang Fei showed a reluctant look, "Big brother, I don't want to stay in Luoyang." I want to go with my eldest brother to catch Dong Zhuo.
Chen Chu's eyes widened, "This is a military order, don't mess around with the second brother!"
Seeing Chen Chu's sharp eyes, Zhang Fei immediately shrunk his neck, and quickly changed his words: "Big brother, don't be angry, I just obey the order."
When everyone saw Zhang Fei's appearance, they couldn't help but feel a little funny.
The reason why Chen Chu wanted to keep Zhang Fei in Luoyang was because soon, the other princes would arrive, and leaving Zhang Fei here could serve as a deterrent.
"The other generals will follow me to lead 30,000 horsemen to the west and pursue Dong Zhuo."
"Yes." The rest of the congregation will come out together to answer the promise.
At the beginning, after learning the news that Chen Chu was about to arrive in Luoyang, Dong Zhuo and his cronies took many precious gold and jade treasures that they could carry with them and led 15,000 soldiers to leave Luoyang first. Also taken by Dong Zhuo's side were Emperor Ling of Han, who was seriously ill, and a group of royal family members.
Shortly after Dong Zhuo left Beijing, he left Luoyang to escort the officials and courtiers of various ministries. Dong Zhuojun was not polite to these old men at all. Due to the limited number of carriages, many people were often stuffed into the same carriage, and these usually high-ranking officials were really miserable, but they dared not speak out. Because those who complained had been killed on the spot, and then abandoned in the wilderness, those officials and masters who were in the same car with him had to endure the pungent smell of blood and did not dare to make any more complaints.
These who can get on the bus are still given special treatment. A considerable number of lower-level officials and their families were not even treated as a crowd, and they had to march on foot. Dong Zhuojun's soldiers thought they were walking too slowly, and often punched and kicked them, and even whipped them, treating them like animal slaves.
So a strange scenery appeared on the official road from Luoyang to the west. A group of well-dressed officials and their relatives were crying and screaming as the soldiers shouted and cursed.
However, not all officials were treated like this, and those ministers who had a good relationship with Dong Zhuo were still treated with considerable courtesy. For example, Situ Wang Yun and university scholar Cai Yong and others. Dong Zhuojun was very polite to these people, and these people had their own carriages.
Cai Yong's double-bridled carriage was very wide, and Cai Yong sat in it with his wife and daughter. In the middle of the car was a small table, on which there were some wine, meat, melons and fruits, and the treatment they received was really different from that of other courtiers. Despite this, the three of them did not look very good, and Cai Yong sat there and sighed from time to time.
Cai Wenji lifted the curtain and glanced out, then lowered the curtain and said, "Father, Dong Zhuo fled west in such a panic!" Could it be that the Kwantung princes broke the second pass of the Bishui Tiger Prison?
Cai Yong nodded, "It should be like this, otherwise why would Dong Zhuo run, and he ran so frightened."
Cai Wenji showed a look of surprise, "I heard that Dong Zhuojun is a tiger and wolf!" How could the Kwantung princes defeat Dong Zhuojun and break the second pass in such a short time?
"Although Dong Zhuojun is a tiger and wolf, the princes of Kwantung are heroes. Every prince is not a fuel-efficient lamp, among which Yuan Shao IV and the third duke, the strategists under his command are like rain and fierce generals are like clouds, and the general Chen Chu is famous for his good war, and his command Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, etc. are all fierce warriors of ten thousand enemies. If these two join forces, it won't be too difficult to break through the second level! Hearing
Chen Chu's name, Cai Wenji's heart trembled for no reason. He didn't understand what was going on, maybe he had heard the name too much during this time.
The group walked for another hour, and it was already getting late. So the team stopped in the grove on the side of the official road, lit a bonfire, and Dong Zhuojun's soldiers began to boil water for cooking.
After dinner was ready, Cai Yong was invited off the carriage, but Cai Wenji and her mother did not get off. The little officer who was in charge of protecting Cai Yong's family hoped to see Cai Wenji's graceful figure, but he couldn't do so, and couldn't help but sigh lowly.
Cai Wenji's beauty, these Dong Zhuojun's soldiers have been famous for a long time, but for a long time, they have only heard of their names. When he escaped from Luoyang before, many Dong Zhuojun soldiers, including this junior officer, were finally fortunate enough to be able to witness it with their own eyes, although it was only a glimpse, but the graceful posture and flower-like face made all the Dong Zhuojun soldiers who saw it shocked. These Dong Zhuojun soldiers were amazed and felt a little regretful, and each of them secretly thought in their hearts: How good it would be if this Cai Yan was not Cai Yong's daughter! The reason why they think so is because Dong Zhuo attaches great importance to this Cai Yong, if it weren't for this, these wolf-like Dong Zhuojun soldiers would probably have been unable to hold back and turn Cai Wenji over and over again.
Cai Yong first asked the maid to bring food to the carriage, then sat down by the campfire, and took the food respectfully presented by the junior officer.
At this moment, a wailing and crying sound sounded not far away. Cai Yong looked up and saw those former colleagues being driven into a pile like cattle, and then the soldiers threw a wooden bowl in front of everyone, and then another soldier came to everyone with a wooden barrel, scooped something from the barrel and threw it into the wooden bowl.
Seeing this scene, Cai Yong couldn't help but sigh. He had the heart to help, but he couldn't do anything about it. At the same time, Cai Yong still had a faint trace of worry in his heart. In the eyes of these courtiers and the people, he Cai Yong is Dong Zhuo's comrade at all, and once Dong Zhuo loses power in the future, I am afraid that Cai Yong's situation will be quite bad.
Cai Yong ate absentmindedly, while approaching the petty officer. The junior officer was flattered when he saw that the other party treated him kindly.
After a while of nonsense, Cai Yong began to shift the topic to some sensitive issues without a trace. At this time, the little officer was already dizzy with joy, basically Cai Yong asked something, and he immediately poured out everything he knew.
Not far away, a courtier carried a bowl of juice that couldn't be more diluted and couldn't be more diluted. Looking at this bowl of gray things, smelling the unpleasant smell, this courtier, who was over half a hundred years old, had a bitter look on his face. Looking up at Cai Yong, who was being carefully served by Dong Zhuojun's soldiers in the distance, a strong hatred suddenly appeared on his face.
