Three Kingdoms: Warriors Lu Bu, You Can Become Stronger By Killing Enemies
Chapter [52] Chuan Guo Yuxi
Xu Rong communicated under the Chengguan for a long time, and finally returned to Lu Bu's side depressed.
"Your Majesty, the guard said that they have no right to open the city gate. This matter needs to be reported to the Xiangguo. Only when the Xiangguo agrees can they dare to open the city gate."
"Bastard!" Zhang Liao couldn't help yelling, "The army is in dire straits, we don't have much food and grass, and there are princes chasing after us, do they want to watch me die here?"
"No accident, they just want us all to die here." Lu Bu said blankly.
After the Bingzhou army was left in Hulao and shut down, it had already appeared that Dong Zhuo wanted to weaken Lu Bu's strength.
Now that Hangu Pass does not open the door, the other party's purpose is clearly revealed, which makes Lu furious.
If it weren't for his wife and daughter in Chang'an, Lu Bu would have led his troops to rebel.
Having encountered such a situation today, Lu Bu has become more and more determined to rebel. After returning to Chang'an, the first thing to do is to find a chance to kill Dong Zhuo!
"Your Majesty, are you saying they did it on purpose? Is this Dong Zhuo's order?" Zhang Liao dared not answer.
Lu Bu looked at the big banner with the word "ox" on the top of the wall, and judged that the identity of the general of the land must be Niu Fu, Dong Zhuo's son-in-law.
Dong Zhuo asked his son-in-law to personally guard such a critical place as Hangu Pass, so that the regiment could truly feel at ease.
"Maybe it's Dong Zhuo's order, or Niu Fu's own initiative, but it doesn't matter anymore, the other party just doesn't want us to have an easy time." Lu Bu said indifferently.
"Then what should we do now?" Zhang Liao was at a loss.
Hangu Pass was blocked, and it was impossible for Lu Bu and his party to pass through.
Even if there are no pursuers behind, food and grass are still a big problem.
"Let's go back to Luoyang." Lu Bu gave the order.
If you can't enter Hangu Pass, and the army doesn't have enough food and grass, you can only go back and grab the food and grass of the coalition forces of the princes.
At the head of Hangu Pass, Niu Fu looked at the turning army below, with a hint of sarcasm on his face.
"General, if we shut Lu Bu out, nothing will happen, right?" the deputy general at the side asked worriedly.
"What happened?" Niu Fu squinted at the lieutenant general, and said with a light smile, "Oh, I am the son-in-law of Xiangguo, even if I committed a heinous crime, what could happen?"
"Although Xiangguo didn't ask me to target Lu Bu, as a junior, I must know how to share the worries of the elders. 04"
"Lu Bu and the Bingzhou Army under his command have become the prime minister's worry."
"Blocking him outside Hangu Pass this time, he just borrowed a knife to kill people, and let the eighteenth princes get rid of Lu Bu. Even if Lu Bu can't be killed, it would be great to weaken the Bingzhou army.
"There is Weihan in Guanzhong, and the eighteen princes can't pass through Hangu Pass. Lu Bu's role is no longer that great. It's time to weaken it."
When the cunning rabbit dies, the lackey cooks; when the birds are gone, the good bow hides.
Previously, the Eighteenth Route's feudal lords had invaded so powerfully that even Dong Zhuo didn't have the confidence to deal with it, so naturally he had to rely on Lu Bu, an invincible general.
Now Dong Zhuo and the Xiliang Army have all retreated safely to Guanzhong, refusing to guard Hangu Pass, and there is no need to worry about the eighteenth princes coming.
Naturally, the idea of crossing the river and tearing down the bridge was born.
After all, Lu Bu is not from Xiliang, and there is a Bingzhou Army under his command. The entire Xiliang Group is wary of Lu Bu.
Blocking Lu Bu outside Hangu Pass was Niu Fu's own initiative, without Dong Zhuo's consent.
But even if Dong Zhuo knew about it, he would pretend not to know about it, a silent move.
Niu Fu figured out Dong Zhuo's thoughts very well. Dong Zhuo really wanted to weaken the power under Lu Bu's command.
"Then what if Lu Bu directly turns the other way?" the lieutenant asked cautiously.
"Hey!" Niu Fu smiled contemptuously, "Lu Bu's wife and daughter are still in Chang'an, and when the Bingzhou army is almost dead, Xiangguo can make Lu Bu come back obediently with an order.
"Then today's matter, do we need to report to Xiangguo?" the deputy general asked again.
Niu Fu pondered for a while, and said: "Let's say hello to Xiangguo, so Xiangguo knows it well.
"This subordinate understands, so I will send a message to Chang'an." The deputy general led the order and left.
Niu Fu glanced at Lu Bu and the others who were leaving, then turned and left the city.
Luoyang.
Sun Jian and Liu Bei stood side by side, looking at the devastation in front of them, no one spoke for a while.
Both of them had been to Luoyang when they were young, and they had seen the prosperous scene of the Han capital.
But now the prosperity is gone, leaving only a scorched earth.
Such a scene made it difficult for the two of them to accept it for a while.
"Dong thief! National thief!!!" Liu Bei was furious and cursed.
As a clan member of the Han Dynasty, the glory of the Han Dynasty is the glory of Liu Bei.
Even though Liu Bei has been reduced to the situation of weaving mats and selling shoes, Liu Bei, as a clan member, will still be honored when it comes to the Han Dynasty.
But now the Han Dynasty, which Liu Bei is proud of, was completely burned down by Dong Thief, which made Liu Bei, as a clan member, burn with anger and burn all inside.
"Ah~" Sun Jian sighed, "Xuande, let's take a look inside the city."
When I came to the city, there were ruins everywhere.
Because Luoyang City is so big, even though the fire has been burning for a long time, there are still many buildings still smoking.
Turning around, the imperial palace was turned into ruins, the imperial temple of the Han Dynasty was destroyed, and several royal tombs were excavated and looted.
As for the body of the tomb owner, it was randomly thrown among the weeds, which was extremely miserable.
Sun Jian and Liu Bei first repaired the Taimiao and sacrificed it with the ceremony of Tailong to comfort the ancestors.
Then those destroyed tombs were reburied, so that the dead could rest in peace.
As for Luoyang City and Imperial City, they have completely lost the value of rescue, and Sun Jian and Liu Bei are also helpless.
He hurriedly said, "Xuande, it's getting late, and I can't march today. It's better to set up camp in Luoyang."
"Brother Wentai just make up his mind." Liu Bei had no objection.
"The open space in front of the Jianzhang Hall in the imperial city is very large, just suitable for the army to station." Sun Jian suggested.
An army of 50,000 is stationed in a large area.
At this moment, Luoyang city is full of ruins, and there are not many places to stay. The square in front of the palace hall is very suitable.
"Brother Wentai, please go and settle down. Bei also wants to go to the Taimiao again to pay homage to the great man who is listed as the first emperor." Liu Bei said sadly.
Sun Jian knew that Liu Bei was a clan member of the Han family, so he didn't say much after hearing the words. After saying hello, he led the army back to Luoyang Palace first.
Liu Bei came to the Taimiao that had just been repaired, and entered it alone, while the two generals Guan and Zhang guarded the door.
In the imperial city, Sun Jian quickly settled down with 50,000 troops and set up simple tents for the soldiers to rest at night.
As the sky dimmed, Yinjun also began to bury the pot and cook.
In the palace, there is naturally no shortage of wells.
The soldiers collected materials locally, used the remains of the palace as wood to light the fire, and drew water from the well for cooking.
A soldier came to the well, was about to put down the bucket to draw water, and glanced into the well.
"Damn bad luck!" After cursing, the soldier turned his head and left.
Seeing this, the fellow at the side was curious and asked, "What's wrong?"
"What, there seems to be a dead person in the well, how can I drink the water?"
Another soldier was a little curious when he heard the words, and glanced into the well.
"Hey, there really is a dead body."
"Let's go." The soldier holding the bucket urged, "What's so interesting about dead people? Haven't you seen enough on this journey?"
"Don't tell me." The soldier pointed to the bottom of the well and said, "Look at this dead man, he is dressed gorgeously, and his identity must not be simple!"
"Let's salvage her, in case she has any property on her, then our brothers..."
The words are not finished, but the meaning is self-evident. To put it bluntly, it is a deadly fortune.
The present is a troubled time, and this kind of behavior of picking up corpses and licking bags is very normal.
"You're right, a little bit of gold and silver jewelry, our brother is not in vain."
Just do it, the two soldiers worked together to salvage the body in the water.
The corpse was a woman, dressed gorgeously, and the two soldiers couldn't figure out whether it was a palace lady or a concubine.
"Look! There must be a treasure hidden in the bulging arms."
The two soldiers immediately got to work and found a box from the corpse's arms.
"Hey! I picked up the treasure. This box alone is definitely worth a lot."
The box containing things is so precious, and the things inside are even more fascinating.
A soldier couldn't wait and opened the box directly.
After seeing the contents clearly, the two soldiers were taken aback.
In the wooden box, there is a jade seal.
"What the hell is this?"
"Looks like an official seal."
"It looks like it's carved from jade, isn't this stuff really valuable?" the soldier asked tentatively.
"Damn, who are you selling this thing to? Who would dare to buy the official seal?" another soldier cursed.
If it is gold and silver artifacts, or jade pendant jewelry, because of its own value, it can be directly used as money and bartered.
But it is not appropriate to use such special things as seals directly as money.
"Then what should I do? It's been a waste of effort for half a day?"
"Go, take this thing to the general, maybe you can get some rewards."
Together, the two soldiers went to find Sun Jian with the jade seal in their pockets.
Although this thing cannot be used directly as money, it is definitely valuable, and it can be dedicated to Sun Jian and exchanged for some rewards from Sun Jian.
The two soon arrived outside Sun Jian's military tent, and were stopped by the soldiers.
"The two of us have important matters to meet with the general, please let this brother inform you."
These two soldiers were originally soldiers under Sun Jian's command, not soldiers given to Sun Jian by the Yuan brothers.
Although Sun Jian was annihilated by Lu Bu's entire army, there were still survivors under his command.
The two soon saw Sun Jian and were taken into the military tent by the soldiers.
"What do you two want to do with Ben?" Sun Jian asked straight to the point.
The two soldiers were also unambiguous, and directly took out the things in their arms.
"General, the villain got a treasure when he was fetching water, and I came here to dedicate it to the general."
Sun Jian took the wooden box with a frown, "Treasure? Dong Zhuo has already dug the ground three feet, what treasure can we leave behind?"
Sun Jian didn't take it seriously at first, and opened the box casually.
But when Sun Jian saw what was inside, he was taken aback for a moment, and then his face flushed suddenly, and he couldn't help breathing quickly.
Seeing this, the two soldiers kneeling on the ground couldn't help but look at each other. It seems that this is definitely a good thing, otherwise Jian would not be so excited.
"Aon, this is... this is! This is!"
Sun Ce couldn't say anything excited, and couldn't utter a complete sentence several times.
"Snapped!"
Sun Jian suddenly closed the wooden box, adjusted his breathing, and calmed down the turbulent waves in his heart.
"Has anyone else seen this thing besides the two of you?" Sun Jian asked eagerly.
"Return to the general, except for us, no one else has seen it, so I sent it to you directly.
Hearing this, Sun Jian and his son looked at each other, and the father and son nodded secretly.
"You two are not allowed to mention this matter to the outside world, so just pretend it never happened, understand?" Sun Jian pondered for a while, and said, "I will give you enough rewards, and the two of you will stay by my side as personal soldiers."
"Thank you General
"Thank you General for the reward!"
The two soldiers smiled happily when they heard this, and thanked Sun Jian a thousand times.
"Go down." Sun Jian motioned for the two to back down.
"Resignation from humble position."
The two soldiers got up from the ground, turned around and were about to walk outside the military tent.
"Puff!"
"Shua!"
After the two soldiers turned around, Sun Ce stabbed a soldier in the back with a single shot, hitting the heart accurately.
He kept moving his hands, drew out his saber again, and killed another soldier with one strike.
Sun Jian had no expression on his face, and was not surprised by Sun Ce's attack.
This is a big matter, regarding the things in the wooden box, the father and son dare not take any risks.
Only dead people will not reveal secrets.
When a little person learns a secret that he shouldn't know, he will often pay the price of his life.
Whether it is Sun Jian or Sun Ce, they are all courageous people, and they will never be soft-hearted at such a moment. 293 It's just two little miscellaneous soldiers, killing them will cause any disturbance in their hearts.
Then Sun Ce summoned his own soldiers to drag out the two corpses on the ground and dispose of them.
"Ah Weng, is it really that thing?" After the soldiers left, Sun Ce couldn't help asking.
Sun Jian nodded and said with a slightly trembling voice: "There should be no mistake, there is a corner missing at the bottom. It is said that when Wang Mang usurped the Han..."
"This item was found in the palace again, so there should be no fakes."
After Sun Ce got the affirmative answer, he was very excited, "This thing was obtained by Ah Weng, this is the destiny! The Han Dynasty has been exhausted for a long time.
"Shut up!" Sun Jian snapped, "Walls have ears, don't say such things outside."
"Forget it baby." Sun Ce also came to his senses and dared not say any more radical remarks.
The thing in the wooden box is Chuan Guo Yuxi.
When the eight characters of "Designed by Heaven, Longevity and Eternal Prosperity" appeared in front of his eyes, no man could refuse its temptation, and Sun Jian and his son were no exception.
Sun Jian didn't have any ambitions before, he just wanted to make a lot of military exploits and then climb up, and he definitely didn't have the idea of becoming an emperor in his heart.
But it was different at this time. The moment he got the jade seal, this kind of thought couldn't be restrained. After taking root in his heart, it took root and germinated crazily.
Now that he got the jade seal, is it really the destiny? Sun Jian couldn't help but think this way.
"Ah Weng, what shall we do next? How should we deal with this thing?" Sun Ce couldn't help asking.
"It's too risky to take this thing outside." Sun Jian pondered for a while, "Go back to Jiangdong as soon as possible, recruit troops and buy horses, accumulate strength, and wait for...the time!"
Sun Jian didn't want to stay here any longer, and he came to the alliance to attack Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian was for military exploits.
But now, Sun Jian no longer looks down on the so-called military exploits.
All the jade seals are in his hands, now he only needs to accumulate strength, wait for the opportunity, and then ascend to the sky in one step.
Sun Jian just wanted to go back to his hometown in Jiangdong, a place he was familiar with, so that he could feel a sense of security.
Otherwise, staying here with a heavy treasure in his body will only make Sun Jian worry day and night, worrying about gains and losses.
"What Ah Weng said is very true, you can lie about the recurrence of the injury and return to Jiangdong to recuperate." Sun Ce suggested: "Anyway, Luoyang has been won, so it can be regarded as an explanation.
"The vanguard army is directly entrusted to Liu Bei, let's leave here quickly with 3,000 soldiers and horses.
"Yes." Sun Jian nodded and said, "Let's leave directly tomorrow morning."
Sun Jian was conspiring with his son to leave Luoyang and return to Jiangdong.
Liu Bei talked with his ancestors in the Taimiao, and Guan Zhang guarded the door outside.
The 50,000 pioneers went south to sleep in the tent after eating.
However, at this time, Lu Bu, who had already left, went back and forth, led his men and horses to march all the way, and returned to Luoyang from Hangu Pass.
At this moment, Lu Bu and his Bingzhou Army have arrived in the outskirts of Luoyang.
Borrowing the light of the moon, he looked at the dilapidated ancient city of Luoyang. .
