At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

As a matter of course, Yuan Shao got He Jin's revenge and the righteous title of commanding the old army of the general.

So Yuan Shao, a first-class actor of the Yuan family who has practiced for more than ten years, wiped away his tears, gritted his teeth, and looked in the direction of the palace with angry eyes.

"The great general has treated me with such kindness as a mountain, I don't want to encounter such a calamity today! Good! Even if I, Yuan Benchu, don't want this life, I will avenge the great general!! Gentlemen! Enter the palace and punish all the eunuchs!!"

Yuan Shao raised his arms and shouted, and everyone in the General's Mansion roared loudly together.

When Yuan Shao rushed to the gate of the Yellow Palace with a group of troops hurriedly assembled by the former generals, he found that Yuan Shu had already led the army of General Huben Zhonglang to attack the palace.

Where did the news come from this kid?The speed is too fast, right?

Yuan Shao was a little dissatisfied, but at this time, it was time to show why the brothers worked together to get revenge.

"highway!"

"Original!"

Yuan Shu shouted loudly: "I have already begun to attack the city, and the eunuchs are not heavily guarded. Please work hard! You can definitely kill the eunuchs and avenge the general!"

"kill!!!"

Yuan Shao immediately used his superb acting skills to cooperate with the low-level actor Yuan Shu who had also practiced for more than ten years, and at the same time secretly scolded Yuan Shu in his heart for not calling him brother at this time.

The offensive was fierce here, and He Jin's younger brother He Miao and He Jin's former subordinates Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang also joined in with their troops.

When asked, He Miao found out about this incident only after the fact. He was very angry, and immediately led his troops to settle accounts with the eunuch.

Not long after, Ding Yuan came with forbidden soldiers to participate in the attack on the eunuchs, and after a while, the highly respected Grand Tutor Yuan Kai also came with troops.

Yuan Kui said that the eunuchs had no morals, and Yuan Kui wanted to do justice for the heavens, kill the eunuchs, avenge the general He Jin, and stabilize the court.

So everyone listened to Yuan Wei's order, and Yuan Wei seemed to be the commander of this coalition army against eunuchs, leading the army to attack the eunuchs in the palace and the forbidden soldiers they controlled.

Only then did Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Duan Gui and others realize that something was wrong. They poked a hornet's nest to ruin something. They hastily mobilized the forbidden soldiers and young eunuchs they could control to guard Miyagi.

They were few in number, and they were not opponents of the eunuch crusade against the coalition forces. It was very difficult to resist, but the crusade against the coalition forces was also not elite. The palace city was tall and thick, and the two sides fought back and forth.

Yuan Kai was worried that things would change if he was late, so he ordered Yuan Shu to burn the Jiulong Gate of the South Palace and the East and West Palaces, trying to force the eunuchs to flee with flames.

As soon as the fire started, the eunuchs panicked.

In the early morning of August 26, the eunuchs couldn't resist the offensive of the coalition forces, so they entered the Changle Palace and announced to the panicked and pale Queen Mother that Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others were plotting to rebel.

Empress Dowager He had no master, so the eunuchs took advantage of the situation to coerce Empress Dowager He, Emperor Shao, and King Liu Xie of Chenliu to flee from Tianqiao Pavilion Road to Deyang Palace in the North Palace.

They ran to the North Palace with a large group of people, and finally met Lu Zhi on Tianqiao Pavilion Road.

Lu Zhi led dozens of soldiers, armed with long daggers, and rushed over wearing battle armor, angrily rebuking the eunuchs for disorderly government, and wanted to attack and kill them. In a burst of chaos, Lu Zhi rescued the Empress Dowager He from Duan Gui.

But the young emperor Liu Bian and Chenliu king Liu Xie were taken away by the eunuchs. Lu Zhi couldn't catch up and was very angry.

At this time, Nangong had already been breached. Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others led an army into the Nangong, announcing that everyone without beards would be killed. The whole Nangong was filled with blood, a sea of ​​corpses, and eunuchs and non-eunuchs who had no beards died. very many.

The coalition forces originally wanted to attack and kill the eunuchs. Of course, how could they let go of such a good opportunity to kill the eunuchs and loot the palace at the same time?

As a result, the treasures and decorations in the palace and the maids were all taken as property and plundered by the coalition forces, and no one could stop them.

Many palaces were burning, and black smoke billowed over Luoyang City.

Seeing the thick black smoke, Guo Peng immediately knew that his chance had come, and it was time for him to step onto the stage of history that belonged to him.

So starting on the morning of August 26, Guo Peng led the army to destroy the camp and began to cross the river. In the afternoon, the whole army crossed the river and arrived at Xiaopingjin Pass.

In Xiaopingjin Pass, Guo Peng temporarily stopped, and sent people to scatter to inquire about the specific information. He ordered the guards to approach Luoyang City to observe the situation closely, while he discussed the current situation with the civil servants and generals.

Mi Zhu was sent back to Xuzhou by Guo Peng to handle errands. After Zhao Yun and Guo Lie escorted Cao Lan and the children home, they would stay in Qiao County and wait for Guo Peng's orders. These three were not there, but the others were.

Guo Peng expressed that he would wait for specific news before moving forward. No one under his command had any objections. They were all shocked by the accident in the imperial capital and could only obey Guo Peng's orders.

On the 27th, the eunuchs could not resist the offensive of the coalition forces in Luoyang Beigong.

In desperation, Zhang Rang, Duan Gui, etc. were forced to pursue the soldiers, so they had to lead Shaodi, Chen Liuwang and dozens of people out of the valley gate on foot, and fled further north, trying to cross the Yellow River to seek help.

Before that, Guo Peng's intelligence personnel urgently reported that the eunuch was trapped in the North Palace, and the coalition forces had the absolute upper hand.

The sentry cavalry sent to observe the situation also came back and reported that there was black smoke in the North Palace, and it should be that there was also war in Luoyang North Palace, and many refugees had already escaped from Luoyang.

Guo Peng gathered the information before and after the rendezvous, and finally remembered that the eunuchs had led the young emperor and Liu Xie to escape from the north of Luoyang and came up to the Yellow River, while Dong Zhuo had garrisoned in the west of Luoyang, and he had the advantage!

Guo Peng's heart beat suddenly, and he immediately ordered the whole army to get ready, and set off together towards Luoyang.

Chapter 183 Three Rescuers

While Guo Peng was inquiring about the news, Lu Zhi was leading a group of people running wildly in the north of Luoyang City, searching for traces of Shaodi and his party.

Originally, he and Wang Yun divided dozens of soldiers to pursue the eunuch, and wanted to take back the emperor and a group of officials, but they were too few to fight against the eunuch's side, and only the Queen Mother He was taken back.

So Lu Zhi placed Empress Dowager He in the palace, and used most of his manpower to protect Empress Dowager He, and took a few people to chase the eunuch himself.

During the pursuit, he suddenly encountered a group of soldiers and horses who were also chasing the eunuch. He stepped forward and asked, it turned out that it was a group of soldiers and horses under He Jin's subordinates, with a number of about 400 people.

"You are Lu Gong?"

Lu Zhi confessed his identity and wanted to lead this army to chase down the eunuch.

The leading officer was stunned for a moment, and immediately said: "The last general was originally under the command of Lord Shanggu Guofu. He led the army to Luoyang to participate in the military parade, and was later incorporated into the Luoyang Forbidden Army by the general."

It turned out that this person was Guo Dong, Lu Zhi was overjoyed, and immediately called the more than [-] people to follow him to chase the eunuch, and he was confident enough.

They chased and killed many eunuchs along the way, and only after rushing out of the palace gate did they realize that the eunuchs had taken the young emperor, Chen Liu Wang Xie and a group of officials outside Luoyang, and fled north.

Lu Zhi was very indignant, scolded the eunuch for making trouble, and immediately led his men to chase north.

After chasing until the evening, Lu Zhi finally led people to catch up with Zhang Rang, Duan Gui and others who were fleeing, and saw the young emperor Liu Bian, Chen Liuwang Liu Xie and some of their courtiers.

"Shoot! An dare to threaten the emperor!!"

Lu Zhi glared angrily, and with a wave of his hand, Guo Dong led his army forward and surrounded the eunuch and his party.

The eunuchs looked left and right, but they didn't dare to coerce the emperor as a hostage. In desperation, Zhang Rang, headed by Zhang Rang, threw down the sword in his hand and knelt on the ground crying bitterly, begging for mercy from Lu Zhi.

Furious, Lu Zhi stepped forward and kicked Zhang Rang and Duan Gui over, beheaded them twice with two swords, and then ordered the army to arrest all the remaining eunuchs, waiting for questioning.

Seeing the death in front of the young emperor Liu Bian, he burst into tears, but the nine-year-old Chen Liu Wang Liu Xie remained calm even though his complexion was pale, and he called out "Young Master Lu".

When Lu Zhi heard Liu Xie calling him, he immediately stepped forward and knelt down, looking worriedly at Liu Xie and Liu Bian's whole body, and he was relieved only after making sure that they had no injuries.

"It's fine that your majesty and the king have nothing to do, it's fine that there's nothing to do."

Lu Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, and then stepped forward to appease Liu Bian who was crying bitterly. After Liu Bian finally stopped his tears, he got up and asked the officials around them what happened.

After learning about it, he was very angry and ordered the army to take all the captured eunuchs to a distance and behead them as punishment.

After everything was done, it was already late, Guo Dong took out some rations carried by the army and gave them to Liu Bian and Liu Xie.

Although it was very rough, Liu Bian and Liu Xie, who were hungry, had nothing to be picky about. The surrounding officials also shared their rations and began to eat in big mouthfuls.

Lu Zhi let out a long sigh, and was about to protect the emperor back to the palace, but within a few steps, there was suddenly the sound of horseshoes stamping on the ground from the north, and as time went by, the sound became louder and louder.

Then, under Lu Zhi's amazed gaze, a large queue of torches suddenly appeared in the north, and they were advancing here quickly.

Who is it?

Could it be the Yellow Turban?

No, it is impossible for the Yellow Turban to have so many war horses.

Could it be the Huns? !

Recently, the Southern Huns took advantage of the chaos in Hebei to loot them. Could it be that some of them have already come here? !

"Array!!"

Lu Zhi immediately ordered Guo Dong's troops to line up.

There is no other way now, we have to line up to protect the emperor, if it is the Xiongnu, he must immediately ensure that the emperor and King Chenliu can escape, for this, he will pay any price.

Seeing so many troops coming this way, Liu Bian cried again.

Lu Zhi, who was crying, couldn't help looking over, secretly feeling that the emperor was too cowardly, but Liu Xie, who was only nine years old, was calm in the face of danger. Although he clenched his fists and trembled all over, he didn't say a word.

When the world is in chaos, the emperor is so cowardly, I am afraid it is not the blessing of the country.

Lu Zhi secretly worried about the future of the Han Dynasty.

Worried about the immediate threat.

But fortunately, it was not the Huns who came.

The large group of cavalry rushed to the front and stopped advancing.

Then a cavalryman holding a torch stepped forward and saw a wave of troops here who were on guard against them, and asked, "Who are you? What happened to Luoyang? The governor sent me to ask."

"Your Majesty?"

Lu Zhi was taken aback, and quickly asked, "Where are you from? Why did you come to Luoyang?"

"We are the army under General Karasuma Nakaro's army under the guardianship of Shanggutai, and we are ordered to come to Luoyang."

Kamiya Tai guards Karasuma Zhonglang?

Guo Peng?

Your own students?

Lu Zhi stared.

Guo Dong beside him hurriedly said: "Mr. Lu, it is Mr. Guo Fu who is here! Mr. Guo Fu is here!"

"Zifeng! Is it Zifeng?!"

Ignoring Guo Dong's words, Lu Zhi shouted directly.

Guo Peng looked from a distance, and when he heard someone calling his name, he was taken aback for a moment, and then he got off his horse and walked forward. Looking again, he saw Lu Zhi who was walking towards him at a fast pace.

"teacher?!"

Guo Peng was taken aback, and hurried forward. When he got closer, he saw that it was indeed Lu Zhi. Could it be that the group of people behind him were...

"Zifeng! You're here? Great! Fortunately, you're here! Great! Great!"

Lu Zhi was very excited, held Guo Peng's hand tightly, and then took him back.

"Come and meet Your Majesty! Your Majesty and King Chen Liu are here!"

Catch up?

Just hit it? !

Guo Peng was so overjoyed that he couldn't hide the joy on his face, and immediately followed Lu Zhi forward.

"My lord, the prefect of Shanggu and General Guo Peng of Hu Karasuma Zhonglang are ordered to lead the troops here, and pay homage to His Majesty! Greeting to Your Majesty!"

Liu Bian's crying gradually became quieter, while Liu Xie looked Guo Peng up and down, and found that Guo Peng had a handsome face and a majestic figure. He looked like a loyal minister, and he was Lu Zhi's disciple, so he was relieved.

However, it is also a problem that Liu Bian did not let him stand up for a long time.

"Brother Huang is overly frightened, please ask Guo Qing."

Liu Xie stretched out his hand and asked Guo Peng to stand up instead of Liu Bian.

Guo Peng just kept his head down, stood up without looking directly at him, and abided by the etiquette of being a minister.

However, he felt it personally, that Liu Bian was indeed not made to be an emperor.

He is still crying and twitching, without the majesty that an emperor should have. On the contrary, the nine-year-old Liu Xie looks more like an emperor.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, now that Zifeng is here, he has also brought an army to keep His Majesty and Your Majesty safe. Let's find a safe place to rest tonight, and return to Luoyang tomorrow morning."

When Lu Zhi said this, Liu Bian didn't respond, and Liu Xie nodded.

"Just do what Lu Shaofu said."

"Yes."

Lu Zhi discussed with Guo Peng some things tonight.
