Three Kingdoms Eschatology

Even if Feng Yu sided with the anti-Dong forces in the future, even if Dong Zhuo was implicated, Cai Yong would not be implicated.Because the wife clan is not counted among the three clans.In the Han Dynasty, no matter in terms of law or ideology, the three clans of Zhu were already the most widely implicated.As for the Zhulian Nine Clans, that was only a matter of the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Of course Dong Zhuo doesn't care about the laws of the Han Dynasty, but he won't do meaningless things either.According to the ideology of people in the Qin and Han Dynasties, killing Cai Yong was just killing a person who had no relationship with Feng Yu other than marrying his daughter to Feng Yu.

Cai Yong just didn't have to go to court today, so he sat in the lobby of the mansion early and waited for his future son-in-law.After some etiquette, Cai Yong cheerfully accepted the dowry.He had another serious conversation with Feng Yu, and he became more and more satisfied with this prospective son-in-law.Then they negotiated with Feng Yu the wedding ceremony the day after tomorrow.

Feng Yu returned to the mansion, ready to wait patiently for the past two days.Cao Cao had already been properly settled by him, and he just waited to pick up Cai Yan and lead them out of the city together with the welcoming team.

Unexpectedly, within an hour after he returned to the mansion, a member of Dong Zhuo's Xiangfu came and informed Feng Yu that Xiangguo Dong Zhuo wanted to summon him.

Feng Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he thought [I really made my calculations, this Dong Zhuo didn't ignore him after all.Now that Dong Zhuo asked, it was impossible not to go.Can only adapt to the circumstances.I hope Dong Zhuo will not let his established plan become complicated. 】

Guided by someone who came, Feng Yu came to a mansion in the inner city that was comparable to a palace.Feng Yu clearly remembered that this house was originally the house of Zhang Rang, who often served Zhang Rang when Emperor Ling was in power.

At the gate of the mansion, another servant of the mansion led the way.After passing through the winding corridors and through the huge courtyard, Feng Yu came to a lobby, but found that the lobby was empty.

The servant bowed to Feng Yu and said, "Your Majesty, please stay here later, and I will inform Xiangguo right away." After that, he lifted his feet and walked to the back room.

Feng Yu had no choice but to stand in the hall with his hands down, waiting for Dong Zhuo to come.Only at this time did Feng Yu feel the difference between being a prince who dominates one side and being a minister and servant.

After waiting for a long time, no one came out. Feng Yu was wondering when he wanted to investigate the system.A man in his thirties walked in, five feet tall, thin and capable, with a high crown in soap clothes.

This made Feng Yu even more surprised, this couldn't be Dong Zhuo!Isn't Dong Zhuo a fat man over sixty years old? !The visitor seemed to see Feng Yu's doubts, smiled slightly, clasped his fists first and saluted, and then introduced himself, "I am Dong Xiangguo's son-in-law, surnamed Li, surnamed Confucian, styled Wenyou."

Feng Yu immediately cleared his doubts, cupped his fists in return and said, "So it's Brother Wen You, I've admired him for a long time."

At this time, with the sound of the collision of jade hooks and rings, a large group of people came out of the back hall.Numerous servants and guards escorted a fat man with gray hair and beard to the hall.If this isn't Dong Zhuo, who else could it be?

Dong Zhuo seemed to wake up from a nap, his eyes were sleepy and he was yawning profusely.He carelessly sat down on the couch at the head of the hall, Feng Yu had no choice but to follow Li Ru and kowtow to Dong Zhuo: "We will see Xiangguo."

Dong Zhuo waved his hands and said, "There's no need to be too polite, just sit down and talk."

After both Feng Yu and Li Ru sat down at the table, he looked at Feng Yu seriously, and then said: "Zhuyanghou is really extraordinary in appearance and has a heroic spirit."

"Xiangguo is absurd."

"Marquis Zhuyang, do you know that the Kwantung bandits have turned against each other in the past two days?" Dong Zhuo then asked straightforwardly, his eyes fixed on Feng Yu's when he asked.

Feng Yu was startled when he heard the words "Kandong group of thieves", but he still pretended not to understand and asked, "There are yellow turban thieves in Kanto again?"

Dong Zhuo sneered and said, "It's not the Yellow Turban Thief, but these rats are not as good as the Yellow Turban Thieves. It's Yuan Shao, Han Fu, Kong Rong, these ungrateful and unfamiliar rats who have begun to spread the word to the world and want to crusade against the old man."

Feng Yu immediately replied: "To Xiangguo, these rats are no different from gnats shaking trees and mantises blocking cars. Xiangguo doesn't have to worry. As long as Xiangguo orders the world with imperial edicts and attacks them in groups, a few small thieves , Fall is just a matter of time.”

Dong Zhuo suddenly stopped the topic, and asked Feng Yu with a smile: "I heard that you are going to marry Cai Yong's daughter in the near future, is there such a thing?"

"Don't dare to lie to Xiangguo, there is indeed such a thing."

"It's so good. I want to attend your wedding in person, and officiate the marriage for you two beauties. When the time comes, I will give Zhuyang Hou a big gift!"

Feng Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he scolded: [Old man, is it a good thing to spoil me?Give me extra problems, right? 】

But the expression on his face was really calm and he said: "The general is grateful for Xiangguo's kindness, but the fiefdom is far away from the capital, how can he use Xiangguo's ten thousand gold body to marry the young general."

Dong Zhuo had already leaned his fat body on the soft pillow of the couch, squinted his eyes and glanced at Li Ru.Li Ru understood, smiled and said to Feng Yu:

"Zhuyanghou, you have misunderstood Xiangguo's meaning. Xiangguo means that the prince can hold the wedding in the capital. In addition, the big gift Xiangguo prepared for you is a mansion in the capital. After you get married, you can live in this capital for a long time."

Feng Yu already understood what their intentions were, but he still pretended to be stupid and said: "But there are still some parts and soldiers in the fiefdom of the last general, they..."

Li Ru smiled again and said: "You can write a letter in hand, and the imperial court will send someone to transfer them to the capital with the handwritten letter from you. But don't worry, you will still be the part of the Lord after they come to the capital."

Dong Zhuo, who had been silent for a long time, sat up straight again, and said earnestly:

"Zhuyang Hou, it's too humiliating for a talented and promising young man like you to be placed outside. This old man loves talents, and the current imperial court is in the midst of employing people, so this old man wants to transfer you to the capital. Entrusted with a heavy responsibility. From now on, the position of General Chaqi will be yours."

Feng Yu's face suddenly revealed a look of surprise, he came from the table to the hall, kowtowed to Dong Zhuo and said, "Thank you so much for Xiangguo's kindness, and I will definitely do my best to serve the court and repay Xiangguo's kindness. So here is a handwritten letter to Zhuyang's All the parts are transferred to the capital."

Both Dong Zhuo and Li Ru laughed joyfully in the hall, but Feng Yu could hear clearly, the laughter was full of complacency.

Seeing Feng Yu's back exiting the hall, Li Ru looked at Feng Yu's handwriting, and at the same time called his personal guards, and whispered: "In the past few days, the security of the inner and outer cities has been stepped up, and the people from the Zhuyang Hou Kingdom cannot let go." One out of town."

Chapter 052

Feng Yu returned to the mansion from Dong Zhuo's Xiangguo Mansion, without saying anything, ordered someone to find him a pair of fishing gear, and went to a small pond near the "city wall" of the outer city to catch fish.

In Luoyang City in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the outer city had no walls.There is only a moat formed by artificial ravines on three sides and Luoshui River in the south.However, during the closure of the city during the Great Plague during the Zhongping period, a low earth wall was rammed along the moat.

At the foot of the earthen wall and on the other side of the moat, there are light cavalry cruising from time to time.If someone climbed over the wall and swam across the river, they would definitely be spotted by patrolling light cavalry and shot with random arrows.Even if they managed to cross the river by luck, they would inevitably be overtaken by these light cavalry.Not to mention a large group of people sneaking across the river.

More than a dozen suspension bridges, pontoon bridges and other bridges erected along the river are the only way to the suburbs.These places are guarded by soldiers.

Behind the bridge is the "city gate", but this so-called "city gate" is just a gap in the earth wall, and there is no actual city gate to open and close.The earthen wall itself was not used for military defense.If there is a real army coming, a gap can be easily opened anywhere in the earthen wall.

At this time, the Zhuyang army's heavy engineering soldiers stationed on the outskirts of the city on the other side of the river suddenly moved.They quietly left the camp, came to a bamboo forest, and replaced the spear blades on the shafts of their short spears with spades, hoes and other engineering tools.Then started tinkering.This location is already the most marginal position in Feng Yu's system overlooking the scene.

Before dawn on the second day, Feng Yu woke up Cao Cao who was still soundly asleep.Cao Cao rubbed his sleepy eyes and said, "Why did you wake up so early?"

"What are you doing? Of course I want you to wake up and have breakfast. Today we are going on the road."

Only then did Cao Cao get up, and while dressing up, he asked in surprise, "Didn't you say that you will marry the young lady of the Cai family tomorrow? Why are you leaving today?"

"Well. People are not as good as heaven. That old man Dong Zhuo wants to play tricks on someone. Someone can only take surprises and act in advance."

After the two washed up, they sat cross-legged in front of the table.Cao Cao ordered soup and porridge in the face of a few noodles, and he was not polite, and he started to eat.This was much more elegant than the meal the night before yesterday, when Cao Cao was like a hungry ghost who had been hungry for several lifetimes, and immediately ate all the dishes on the table.

Feng Yu told him stories while eating:

"...I had a piece of song that I fled in the early years and was taken in by a friend, and I wanted to kill pigs and goats as a treat for him. In the end, just because of a few words, my song was misunderstood as that the other party wanted to harm him and asked the government for credit. My song Just killed the entire family, only to find out afterwards that it was a misunderstanding..."

After Feng Yu finished speaking, he saw Cao Cao was touched.Cao Cao poured the last few mouthfuls of porridge into his mouth, put down the bowl heavily and said, "If so, he would do the same. It's just that he won't make a judgment based on the other party's few words. His decision is correct, Just misjudged."

Feng Yu chuckled twice, got up and raised his weapon and walked out the door. When he was about to go out, he said to Cao Cao: "Wait a minute, my people will take you away, and we will meet again in about half an hour. "

……

Rare good weather in early winter.Cai Gao, the housekeeper of the Cai Mansion, moved a small chair and sat in the courtyard, bathing in the warm sunshine.

Cai Gao's surname is not Cai, but a high-ranking servant who often serves Song Dian's family.After Song Dian was killed in the Ten Changshi Rebellion, he was taken into a hard labor camp by Dong Zhuo, who had entered Beijing, together with other domestic slaves.

But within a year, his fortunes turned around.Selected by Li Ru and assigned to be Cai Yong's domestic servant, he not only bid farewell to the labor in the hard labor camp, but also became a housekeeper who can dictate orders in Cai's mansion.Of course, he is also an eyeliner arranged by Li Ru in the Cai Mansion.

At this time, there was a sound of horseshoes outside the door, and there were quite a few horses hearing the sound.Cai Gao had already heard the welcome voices from the doormen: "Oh, why is my uncle here? Isn't this the day to greet the bride? My uncle has something to do, just let the younger ones pass the message..."

Hearing this, Cai Gao was also surprised: 【What did Marquis Zhuyang do in Cai's mansion today?Shouldn't you be busy preparing for the wedding tomorrow? 】

Cai Gao hurriedly took three steps and two steps, and rushed to the door.Just as a smile formed on his face, a steel knife was placed around his neck.

"Don't move, don't shout. Otherwise, your head will be cut off!" The other party threatened in a low voice.Cai Gao couldn't make up his mind for a while, but he knew that life and death were in the opponent's hands, so he didn't dare to make a sound.

After the Zhuyang scouts followed Feng Yu into the courtyard, the gate of Cai Mansion was shut with a bang.Cai Gao and Men Ding were tightly bound, and their mouths were gagged with sackcloth.Thirty scouts continued to control all the servants in the mansion.

Feng Yu also had two personal guards, who coerced a servant to lead them straight to Cai Yan's boudoir.Without saying a word, Feng Yu stepped into the boudoir.

Cai Yan was sitting in the room facing the bronze mirror, with a personal maid behind her combing her hair.Cai Yan was surprised and delighted to see Feng Yu suddenly appear in the room.Thinking that Feng Yu was impatient to see her, a blush suddenly appeared on his face, and he said:

"Lang Jun, didn't you come to welcome the bride tomorrow? Why did you come here today, and entered someone else's boudoir without even saying hello. Eh, that's wrong. You...how did you enter..."

Before he could finish speaking, Feng Yu stuffed a clean sackcloth into his mouth, and quickly tied his hands behind his back.He held her in his arms and walked out.Cai Yan was also in a daze, not knowing what happened.

She was shocked and ashamed and angry.He whimpered and kicked his feet wildly, but Feng Yu held him tightly in his arms, unable to break free at all.At the same time, the personal maid was also controlled by the scouts.

When they arrived in the courtyard, Feng Yu put Cai Yan on the saddle, came to Cai Gao, took off the sackcloth from his mouth, and asked sharply, "Tell me, where is that old man Cai Yong now? Tell a half lie Just let your head move!"

"There is an important temporary court meeting in the court hall today, and the Patriarch has gone to attend the court meeting. Gu...junhou, why are you here..." Cai Gao replied with a mournful face.Feng Yu stuffed the sackcloth into his mouth again.

Feng Yu thought [Cai Yong is really not here, fortunately he made a plan for this]

He continued to play, and shouted at Cai Gao angrily: "This old man and the old thief Dong Zhuo plot against Lord Ben. Tell the old man that his daughter was taken away by Lord Ben. Today is his fate, otherwise Take his old life!"

"Get on the horse" Feng Yu gave the order, and the scouts flew onto the saddle one after another.Feng Yu himself got on his big black-maned horse, and held Cai Yan, who was still bound and gagged, in his arms.The gate of the Cai Mansion compound was opened again, and 31 rode out on horseback.

Cai Yan heard those words in Feng Yuyuan, and knew that a major change had taken place.Although I don't know what happened specifically, I can guess that I will break up with Feng Yuen, and I don't know what Feng Yu will do to her.

Cai Yan's two lines of tears already welled up in her eyes, streaming down her cheeks.Feng Yu said softly in her ear: "There have been some accidents, and I can't marry you as planned. It's too late to explain in detail. Just now, I was acting to make your father and my father-in-law's situation safer. Now you have to do All you have to do is close your eyes.”

Cai Yan's mood was like bungee jumping from hell back to the world.

Chapter 053

In the inner city of Luoyang, in front of the Shengyang Gate on the south wall.Seven or eight soldiers on duty were chatting about their daily affairs.Normally, the guards at the inner and outer city gates were local soldiers mixed with a small number of Xiliang soldiers, but these two days they were all replaced by Dong Zhuo's direct Xiliang army.

The gates of the inner city are not like the "gates" of the outer city, where people, horses and carriages entering and exiting need to be checked one by one. The guard posts here are only for warning.

These seven or eight soldiers suddenly stopped chatting, because an unusual figure came to them.

It's unusual, one is because they have a large number of people, and they look like thirty or so riders.At first glance, it seems that the street is full of traffic jams.The second is that there is more than one person on one of the rides, and it seems that there is a woman with him.The third is that their speed was very fast, and when they approached the city gate, instead of slowing down, they accelerated.Fourth, they took out their crossbows...

They are naturally Feng Yu and the thirty scouts.When they entered the inner city, they entered through several city gates in groups, and each group consisted of five or six people.And there is Feng Yu's identity cover.Naturally, it could not arouse the vigilance of the defenders.

Moreover, Cai's mansion is not far from Shengyang Gate, just a distance of more than a hundred battles, and it can be reached in a blink of an eye.So there was no patrolling Dong Zhuojun on the road.

But now, the soldiers guarding the Shengyang Gate have noticed something abnormal, so they will loudly warn of the enemy's attack and turn around to close the city gate.But it was too late for them to do so, thirty sharp arrows rushed towards their faces, and with a few screams, seven or eight Xiliang soldiers all rushed to the street on the spot.

The soldiers on the top of the city were startled and screamed loudly.But 31 cavalry rushed out of Shengyangmen like a gust of wind and entered the outer city.Running towards the outer "city gate" two or three miles away...

Along the Luohe River, at the end of a pontoon bridge, is a gap in Luoyang's "outer city wall".More than a dozen soldiers are setting up checkpoints here to check people entering and leaving the city.This checkpoint is by no means just the dozen or so people, there are nearly a hundred people stationed in a small camp next to the checkpoint.

Not many people entered the city this early winter morning, and nearly a hundred people in the camp squatted in the open space outside, lazily basking in the sun.

At this moment, the sound of galloping horses familiar to the Xiliang army came from the opposite side of the pontoon bridge.In the warm winter sun, more than a dozen soldiers on duty who were drowsy suddenly woke up.

They looked up to the other side of Luoshui.At least fifty or sixty war horses are rushing forward, and the speed is getting faster and faster, and they are still holding bows and arrows.

These warriors didn't come to enter the city at all, but came to attack the city!The sound of enemy attack warnings sounded one after another, and before more than a dozen soldiers could dodge in the future, dense arrows came like a shower.In an instant, a number of Xiliang soldiers were wounded by arrows.

The soldiers in the nearby camp heard the screams, found their weapons in a panic, and rushed towards the bridgehead of the pontoon bridge and the gap in the earth wall.The mountain of knives and the forest of guns immediately appeared at this "outer city gate".

After the incoming warrior rushed to the bridge on the other side, he had no intention of crossing the river.Instead, it separated to the two sides, turned around and turned back again, and released round after round of arrows.

Some people in the Xiliang army held shields, but from time to time some people fell to the ground from arrows.Their duty is to guard the "city gate", so they cannot attack each other, and even if they attack, they will not be able to catch up.

In this way, under the continuous shooting of the opponent, over time, the defenders of this checkpoint will inevitably suffer heavy casualties.This is the intention of the defenders to believe that the opponent only shoots but does not attack.

"Up the oar shield", a Qiang soldier leader of the defenders shouted loudly.Afterwards, more than a dozen soldiers lifted a tall oar shield from the camp, preparing to erect a shield wall in front of the gap and behind the bridgehead.

A soldier from Xiliang who was walking out with his oar shield suddenly felt his back go cold, and then saw a sharp spear protruding from his chest.

Fifty soldiers with short spears and two-foot round shields quietly appeared behind the gap, stabbing wildly at the unaware Xiliang soldiers.They were the fifty heavy engineering soldiers who entered the city.In addition, more than ten scouts also dismounted and joined the operation on foot.

In addition, there are more than a dozen knights nearby, including the staff of the residence, guarding Cao Cao.Cao Cao shouted anxiously: "Don't worry about me, you go up and kill too!" After that, he got off his horse and drew his sword, and attacked and killed the Xiliang army.

He was galloping towards this place, and there were more than a hundred battles away. Feng Yu, who manipulated the system to command the battle, said anxiously: [Cao Cao, why are you joining in the fun!Be careful to accidentally injure you among the chaos. 】

A hundred soldiers from Xiliang focused their attention on the cavalry on the opposite bank, but they didn't expect seventy or eighty infantry to appear behind them and launch a surprise attack on them.Caught off guard, more than 60 soldiers fell down in an instant.

The rest of Xiliang soldiers panicked when they knew someone was attacking from behind.As soon as they turned around, they were stabbed into the abdominal cavity and chest cavity by the opponent's first knife and short spear, and some of them lost their heads with a single knife.

The last dozen or so Xiliang soldiers were already out of their wits, and some even knelt down and begged for surrender.In the end, within a few breaths, they were all wiped out by the chaotic swords and guns of the soldiers of the Zhuyang Army.

Cao Cao pulled out his sword from a soldier, and then returned to his horse.The rest of the soldiers removed all the roadblocks that refused to horse, and the heavy soldiers ran across the river along the pontoon bridge, but the scouts returned to their horses.

At this time, Feng Yu arrived just in time with thirty scouts, and rushed out of Luoyang City without stopping.Cao Cao and more than [-] other cavalry followed closely behind.The fifty heavy soldiers had already run to the other side of the river, and jumped onto the horsebacks of the fifty scouts who had come to meet them.Also fled in the same direction.

From the beginning to the end of this battle, it took place within a few minutes, almost in one go.However, Feng Yu and others did not get rid of the entanglement of the Xiliang Army.

Qingqi patrolling along the river noticed the change here, sounded the horn, and groups of patrolling Qingqi gathered here.Less than a minute after Feng Yu and the others left, they gathered seventy or eighty riders and chased them down along the trail.

These light cavalry could not catch up with Feng Yu's cavalry scouts, but they could catch up with those cavalry with one horse and two people.Just when they are getting closer and closer to the goal.In a small forest on their left flank, accompanied by the sound of rushing thunder, a billowing "torrent" suddenly rushed out. It was the tiger and leopard cavalry of the Zhuyang Army.

The Xiliang army is good at cavalry, but they have never seen such excellent cavalry, and the opponent also has an overwhelming advantage in numbers. In addition, the opponent suddenly launched an attack from its own flank.

The experienced Xiliang knights immediately foresaw the outcome of this battle, that is, the entire army was wiped out.They beat their horses desperately, trying to escape the trap.However, after the torrent of tiger and leopard riders swept through, only Miao Miao Shuqi escaped.

The rest of the people and horses turned into piles of blood and bones with spears inserted, cut into several pieces by sabers, and trampled into meat paste by iron hooves.

Only a moment later, a cavalry force of more than a thousand horsemen chased from the city to the bridgehead of the pontoon bridge.The leading Xiliang general looked at the corpses all over the ground, and said in a cold voice: "A group of trash, the other party has only a few people, but you can't hold on for a moment!" Then he waved his hand, and said in a low voice: "Chasing !"

Chapter 054: Li Ru's Confusion

In the Chongde Hall of the Luoyang Imperial Palace, the sunlight pours in from the skylight on the upper part of the wall, and shines on the court clothes of the highness's civil and military officials.

On the first stage of the hall, there are two people, one young and one old.The little boy on the dragon chair in the middle is Liu Xie, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and the fat man with gray beard and hair on the side is naturally Dong Zhuo.

The topic of the current court discussion is the issue of "rebellion against the imperial court" by the officials of prefectures and counties in Hebei, Qing, Yan and Henan areas who played the banner of anti-Dong.Dong Zhuo leaned lazily on the couch, listening to His Royal Highness's civil and martial arts report.

He didn't expect to find a solution in this court, this court meeting was just a formality in his eyes.The real discussion of political affairs and military affairs should be in the lobby of his prime minister's mansion, where he discusses and agrees with his generals and staff.

At this time, a little yellow door came in from the side door of the main hall, Xiaobu hurried to Dong Zhuo's side, and whispered something in his ear.At this moment, His Royal Highness and his ministers suddenly saw that Dong Zhuo suddenly stood upright from the couch, and his two small eyes suddenly opened wide.

The news that came in from Xiaohuangmen was the news that Feng Yu had suddenly betrayed and broke the door, and Feng Yu also kidnapped Cai Yong's daughter before he left.

Dong Zhuo made a gesture without making any further announcements.The eunuch who was chanting at the head of the palace had already seen it, and shouted: "Today's court meeting ends here, retreat!"
