The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

And Liu Zheng only showed a smug expression on his face after seeing He Jin let these people back.

"He Jin, He Jin, I really didn't expect you to be so decisive. I didn't expect to directly order the Emperor Han to be shot."

Liu Zheng felt a little surprised by He Jin's decisiveness, but he didn't despise He Jin's idea at first.

At this point in time, Liu Zheng would not be surprised if He Jin did anything for his own future.

"I never thought that you would arrest my nephew! I underestimated you!"

Seeing Liu Bian in Liu Zheng's hands, He Jin was obviously more afraid of Liu Zheng.

"I knew that you would not let me go honestly, that's why I made this decision. You don't need to care about Handi, but your nephew, you must care about one or two things."

There was a slight smile on Liu Zheng's face. It seemed that he was already in control of the overall situation at this time, pinching He Jin's weakness. In fact, Liu Zheng was panicking in his heart.

Judging from He Jin's decisive order to shoot and kill Emperor Han, He Jin is an ambitious and thoughtful person. If he is more ruthless, he will directly order to fight regardless of the life of Prince Liu Bian.

Then Liu Zheng really has no cards to stop He Jin, and can only use the lives of more than 1000 Yellow Turban soldiers behind him to fight He Jin in the final decisive battle.

But such a result, Liu Zheng can know with a flat ass thinking, most of the losses are more than the gains, even if he can break through the guards of the palace gate, he will definitely not be able to escape Luoyang City.

"Tell me, how can we release the prince."

With a gloomy face, He Jin began to calculate, trying to delay time.

Liu Zheng didn't answer He Jin, but glanced left and right, signaling Zhou Cang to follow him.

Liu Zheng took the initiative to pinch Liu Bian, then approached He Jin step by step, and started walking towards the outside of the city gate.

At this time, when He Jin saw Liu Zheng walking forward, he also began to feel a little nervous, not daring to start a conflict with Liu Zheng easily.

You can only order people to start backing up a little bit.

"Back! Or I'll kill him!"

Liu Zheng used Liu Bian as a shield, and He Jin was frightened by Liu Zheng's action. As a last resort, he could only push back the people on his side.

The reason why Liu Zheng didn't communicate with He Jin was that he didn't want to give He Jin too much time to think. If Liu Zheng and He Jin were in a stalemate here, He Jin made a decision in his heart, which would be detrimental to Liu Zheng.

At this time, Liu Zheng directly forced He Jin, so that He Jin didn't have the mind to think and make decisions about these things.

In this way, Liu Zheng and his men had gradually arrived outside the palace. He Jin's men could only watch Liu Zheng covetously, but did not dare to step forward.

Chapter 126 escape from birth

He Jin's face was ugly, and he watched Liu Zheng and the others walk out of the palace.

Seeing that people like Liu Zheng had escaped from the palace, the counselors around He Jin immediately came up and asked He Jin immediately.

"My lord, those thieves are about to escape from here, and if they don't act, it will be too late."

Two men in general's armor stood beside He Jin.

These two people were named Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang.

Historically, after He Jin was suddenly killed by Shi Changshi, these two men also contacted Yuan Shao and others to take the lead for He Jin and beheaded He Miao and others.

It can be seen that they still have some loyalty to He Jin.

Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang huddled beside He Jin, wanting to obey He Jin's orders, but He Jin hadn't made up his mind yet, after all Liu Zheng was holding his nephew Liu Bian.

If Liu Bian ignored Liu Bian's comfort and launched an attack on Liu Zheng and the Yellow Turban Army, in case Liu Bian was injured, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty and Prince Liu Bian would both die in this palace accident.

Then the candidate to inherit the throne is not good.

Although He Jin could choose to make Liu Xie, the second son of Emperor Ling of Han, as emperor, Liu Xie was not He Jin's nephew after all. He Jin wanted power in the court, and even more wanted to make the throne his own.

He Jin hadn't thought of usurping the throne by himself, but if he had his own nephew but the emperor, wouldn't the throne of the Han family be the same as that of his He family?

Therefore, He Jin cared more about the life of the little prince Liu Bian than the life of Emperor Han Ling.

"My nephew is in the hands of these rebels. What if I get rough and hurt my nephew?"

He Jin was not reconciled, nor did he want to hurt his nephew, but he couldn't just let these Yellow Turban rebels leave here.

"My lord, shall we just let these traitors leave like this?"

"It's okay to let these guys leave for the time being. Anyway, the battle at Hulao Pass should be coming to an end. Once the fighting in Luoyang stops, we will slowly send people to negotiate with him. These rebels are only asking for their lives. It is the most important method to hold my nephew's life."

In the end, He Jin still did not choose to risk Liu Xie's life at this time.

Gritting his teeth, he gave Liu Zheng a vicious look after the meeting, but he still didn't let anyone charge up.

After Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang heard He Jin's words, they didn't say much. After all, they didn't have the power to influence He Jin's thoughts, they were only qualified to follow orders.

"Yes, my lord, I will immediately make people retreat and follow behind these thieves, lest they escape too quickly."

"I'll still come."

He Jin was worried about Liu Bian's life, and was afraid that Liu Zheng would really be bad for Liu Bian, so after Liu Zheng and the others left the palace gate, he immediately chased after him and yelled at Liu Zheng and the others.

"Thief, I can let you go, but you must not hurt my nephew's life!"

Liu Zheng turned his head and glanced at He Jin. After hearing He Jin's words, Liu Zheng's frightened mind relaxed a little at this moment.

"As long as the general lets me go, the previous grievances will be wiped out."

"You let my nephew go, and I will guarantee you to leave Luoyang City safely, how about that?"

"Hehe, general, do you think I will still be deceived by you? Do you still have the right to bargain with me now? If you are sensible, let me go now. When I get out of Hulao or leave, I will naturally let Liu go. debate!"

"Let you leave Hulao Pass?"

He Jin originally thought about letting Liu Zheng and others leave Luoyang City, and Liu Zheng would know how to let the little prince Liu Bian go, but what Liu Zheng said next made He Jin have to reconsider.

However, He Jin didn't have anything to think about. At this time, Liu Zheng and others took advantage of Liu Bian and quickly ran towards the east gate.

Although He Jin and the others were still chasing after them, it was difficult to order them to rush over directly, so they could only agree to Liu Zheng's request.

He Jin quickly asked people to go to the east gate, and asked the defenders of the east gate to open the gate and let Liu Zheng and others leave the city.

It took Liu Zheng and others less than half an hour to return from the gate of the imperial city palace to the east gate of Luoyang, where they had discussed with Xu Huang and others about attacking the city.

At this time, the flames of war outside the East City Gate were still loud, and the shouts of killing could still be vaguely heard even if Liu Zheng and the others were standing in the city.

Although the voice was not loud, it proved that the Yellow Turban Army outside the city had not been completely wiped out by the official army. The stone that Liu Zheng had been mentioning in his heart could be regarded as falling to the ground.

As long as nothing happened to Xu Huang, Huang Zhong and the others, then Liu Zheng's trip would be worthwhile even though there were some difficulties.

"Open the gates!"

Wu Kuang drove to the gate of the east city first, and immediately ordered the generals in the city to open the gate.

The guard in the city had also died long ago, and the person in charge of the entire east gate at this time was Yuan Shao, the commander of the Habayashi Army.

When Yuan Shao came to the east city with his troops, it happened that the city gate guard was shot and killed by Huang Zhong. Therefore, Yuan Shao took over the defense at the city gate and attacked the city. At that time, Yuan Shao frowned when he heard that someone in the city asked to open the city gate.

"Who are you, do you know that opening the city gate now is to let the thieves from outside the city enter the city, can you bear the crime?"

"I have the general's order to open the city gate quickly, otherwise you won't be able to afford to delay the great general's affairs."

Wu Kuang was not familiar with Yuan Shao, and the distance between them was relatively far, so he didn't recognize Yuan Shao at all.

But Yuan Shao still had a lot of doubts at first, when he heard that it was about the general, he immediately sent someone down to inquire, but after seeing the general himself, Yuan Shao was shocked.

Originally, Yuan Shao wanted to ask what happened, but at this time He Jin was getting impatient. Yuan Shao saw He Jin's impatience, so he stopped talking, and directly asked the people on his side to open the city. Door.

The city gate opened.

Surprise appeared on the faces of Liu Zheng, Zhou Cang and others.

Before Liu Zheng and others left the city ahead of time, the Yellow Turban Army outside the city had already entered Luoyang City.

Xu Huang led his people straight in. As soon as he came in, he saw Liu Zheng, Zhou Cang and others, and he was immediately pleasantly surprised.

However, Liu Zheng didn't let people like Xu Huang continue to enter the city. Instead, he immediately said something to Xu Huang. After Xu Huang's life was over, his group of people retreated directly from Luoyang City.

Although Xu Huang didn't know what happened, he would not disobey Liu Zheng's order, so he led his people and ran out of Luoyang city.

Yuan Shao watched these yellow scarf thieves leaving Luoyang City, then looked at General He Jin, hesitant to speak.

He Jin squinted, stared at Liu Zheng, glanced left and right, and gave Wu Kuang a look. Wu Kuang understood He Jin's meaning and immediately led others to follow.

Chapter 127 Returning to Hulao Pass

After escaping from Luoyang, the defenders in Luoyang City did not have many people chasing them out.

After all, in Luoyang City, there are not many defenders.

After experiencing an attack by the Yellow Turban Bandits, although there were not many casualties, the city of Luoyang was already in chaos. In addition, He Jin ordered someone to shoot and wound Emperor Han. It will not come out of this city easily.

When Liu Zheng saw that there was only a thousand troops following behind his own, he did not stop to wipe out this wave of troops, but let them follow. Go to Hulao Pass.

Now that such a big thing happened in Luoyang, staying here is just waiting to die. Liu Zheng didn't want to stay here any longer.

On the way, Liu Zheng heard Xu Huang and Huang Zhong talk about the attack outside the city.

It turned out that after Xu Huang and Huang Zhong learned that Liu Zheng was going to sneak into Luoyang City to do things, they began to lead people to cover Liu Zheng at the east gate.

The East City Gate has always been attacked on a small scale. Although there was a lot of momentum, there were not many people who actually attacked the city.

Most of them were feints, and then sent Huang Zhong's thousand archers to go up and shoot a wave of arrows, and then retreated. When the officers and soldiers at the city gate relaxed a little, Xu Huang sent people up to harass them again.

After so many repetitions, a siege battle has continued until now.

Although Xu Huang, Huang Zhong and others did not break down the east gate of Luoyang.But persisting for such a long time can be regarded as buying Liu Zheng and the others a long time.

If it weren't for Xu Huang, Huang Zhong and others attacking the city gate at the east gate, attracting the attention of the defenders in Luoyang city.

Liu Zhen, Zhou Cang and others in Luoyang City were not able to reach the General's Mansion so easily and capture He Jin alive.

Although the 8000 troops led by Xu Huang and Huang Zhong eventually lost more than [-] people, all this was worth it to Liu Zheng.

After all, it was extremely difficult for the 1 people who were near Luoyang City to break out from Luoyang. Not to mention escaping from here, even breaking through Hulao Pass, the defense lines of the three generals were extremely difficult.

At the price of thousands of deaths, in exchange for them leaving Luoyang, and using the Crown Prince Liu Bian as their trump card to make the officers and soldiers fight the rat, this kind of business is a huge profit for Liu Zhen.

Liu Zhen took his own people and quickly returned to Hulao Pass from Luoyang.

As soon as he returned to Hulao Pass, Liu Zhen found that Hulao Pass had not been completely lost and was still under their control.

Xu You and Sun Xia, who were in charge of guarding Hulao Pass, have not yet been defeated by the army, but the 4 soldiers and horses who had stayed at Hulao Pass had suffered heavy losses. When Liu Zheng returned here, 5000 soldiers and horses had already died. More than half, only more than [-] people remained.

With such heavy casualties, this is still defending Hulao Pass, not taking the initiative to attack. It is conceivable what kind of attack Xu You has suffered in the past half a month, and the battle must have been extremely tragic.

Originally, the defense of Hulao Pass was already very difficult, and there was a danger of being broken by the officers and soldiers at any time, but it happened that Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses returned to Hulao Pass, adding thousands of troops to the defenders of Hulao Pass at once. Xu You's pressure has also been reduced a lot.

And when Xu You saw Liu Zheng and the others came back, he was immediately overjoyed.

"Shuai Qu, I lived up to the expectations. I led people to guard the Hulao pass, and blocked the attacks of Lu Zhi, the general of Zhonglang. I can count on waiting for you to come back!"

It has been more than half a month since Liu Zheng left Hulao Pass, and the one-month period agreed by Xu You and Liu Zheng is coming soon.

In fact, Xu You had already received the news of the failure of the Jizhou Yellow Turban Army at Hulaoguan, and already knew that Zhang Jiao, the great virtuous teacher, had died, and most of the rebel army had been wiped out. of states and counties.

It can be said that Liu Zheng is the only one who can make great achievements now, but Liu Zheng's power now only has more than 2 left at Hulao Pass Soldiers and horses cannot become a big climate.

"Mr. Xu You, fortunately, I went to Luoyang and fulfilled our expectations. Not only did I plunder a lot of resources, but I also captured this kid."

Liu Zheng pushed out the prince Liu Bian who had been by his side all the time.

Xu You looked at Liu Bian beside Liu Zheng. He didn't know Liu Bian, and frowned, waiting for Liu Zheng to clarify his doubts.

"This is?"

"Who do you think this kid is?"

Liu Zheng glanced at Xu You with a smile and made a fool of himself.

Xu You is so smart, he immediately thought that the child who could attract Liu Zheng's attention must not be a mortal, so he opened his mouth immediately.

"Could it be the heir of some high-ranking official?"

"Well, do you know whose heir this is?"

"The son of General He Jin?"

Xu You was startled when he heard Liu Zheng's answer, and immediately reported it to the higher authorities. Xu You didn't think that the kid in front of him would be the prince, but only thought that he was the son of General He Jin. After all, the heirs of other officials are considered Being caught by Liu Zheng, Liu Zheng will definitely not attract attention.

Only the sons of the great generals of the current dynasty, or the sons of other three princes, can barely make Liu Zheng pay attention.

Liu Zheng smiled slightly when he heard Xu You's answer.

"Mr. Xu You, you are only half right."
