Chapter 208 Assassination is a path

Lu Bu's new defeat, Dong Zhuo's heart was frustrated again.

Thinking of all the princes outside the Hulao Pass who were staring at him like a tiger, he was even more worried.

Dong Zhuo is still self-aware, and now his reputation in the world is already notorious.

If it falls into the hands of those princes, it may be difficult to even die.

Can't stay here any longer...

As soon as this idea came out, it immediately took root and sprouted in Dong Zhuo's heart like a weed.

Why not just move back to Chang'an, Chang'an is in danger of Weihan, back then the Western Qin relied on guarding the Weihan pass to achieve the momentum of the Western Qin.

Dong Zhuo gathered all the civil and military officials in the court hall and said, "The eastern capital of Luoyang has been in decline for more than two hundred years. I think the prosperity is actually in Chang'an. I plan to serve you to the west. You should pack up and go west as soon as possible!"

Dong Zhuo's words left everyone in the room shocked.

Luoyang is the capital of the country, with the most wealth, population, food and grass. How can the relocation of the capital be said to be possible?

Situ Yang Biao said, "Guanzhong is scattered and dilapidated, and has long since lost its prosperity in the pre-Qin period. Abandoning the ancestral temple now for no reason may alarm the people of the world."

There is a deep reason why the big man regards Luoyang as the eastern capital.

However, Dong Zhuo is so focused on running away now, how could he care about these things?

"Do you want to thwart the country's plans?"

Dong Zhuo's words choked Yang Biao so much that he didn't dare to speak again.

Taiwei Huang Wan and Situ Xun Shuang remonstrated one after another, but Dong Zhuo didn't listen at all.

In order to scare the chickens and monkeys, Yang Biao, Huang Wan, and Xun Shuang were directly demoted as ordinary people.

The effect of killing the chickens to warn the monkeys was immediate, and the whole Luoyang took action, and all began to prepare for the relocation of the capital.

What Dong Zhuo didn't know was that when he decided to "move the capital", more than half of his luck instantly disappeared.

Between the heaven and the earth, the mist that represented "doom" immediately enveloped Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo's dizzy eyes became cloudy several times again.

At this moment, Menzi reported to Li Ru and Li Wenyou to see him.

Dong Zhuo didn't want to meet at first, but when he thought about the friendship between Li Ru and him along the way, he decided to meet after thinking about it.

Seeing Li Ru coming in, Dong Zhuo was the first to speak out, "Wen You, are you also here to persuade me?"

Li Ru was stunned, only to see that Dong Zhuo's eyes were red, like an angry lion, ready to choose someone to eat at any time.

Seeing Dong Zhuo like this, Li Ru swallowed all the words that came to his lips.

Li Ru: "Master Xiang, now that money and food are scarce, Jiange has ordered that it is forbidden to coerce the people. I don't know what good strategy Master Xiang has."

Dong Zhuo fell silent when he heard the words.

He was born in the army and knew everything about the army.

If there is not enough food and grass, the army mutiny is inevitable.

Once such a thing happened, his plan to hold on to Xiaohan Pass would naturally come to naught.

Dong Zhuo: "There are a lot of wealthy households in Luoyang, but they can't be registered as officials. Also, Yuan Shao and others can kill their clan and confiscate their family wealth, and they will definitely get huge."

"Yes."

Li Ru didn't object, but Dong Zhuo's words reached his heart.

In fact, he was planning to remonstrate like this just now!

Seeing that Dong Zhuo wanted to pay attention in an instant and coincided with him, Li Ru couldn't help but ignite hope again.

Going west to Chang'an may not be a dead move.

If Master Xiang can really pull himself together, he may not be able to reproduce the momentum of the Western Qin Dynasty swallowing the world back then.

As for the runes, these days he quietly dispatched a lot of detailed work.

As for the runes mastered by the allied forces of the princes, he basically mastered seven or eight.

Also.

The chaos of the Han Dynasty has been settled, and it is not impossible for the land of Shandong to be turned into a piece of white land.

And they guard the land of the Western Qin Dynasty, work hard to govern, and recuperate, so they may not be able to rise again, and sit and watch the world.

However, at this moment, Dong Zhuo's words came again.

"Chang'an is in ruins, and the military supplies are very expensive. If you don't steal the wealth of the rich, it's just a drop in the bucket...Wen You, you are responsible for collecting taxes. Don't leave a rich Luoyang to those thieves outside Hulao Pass!"

Li Ru's eyes widened, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Where did he not understand what Dong Zhuo meant?

Didn't the Jiange order to prohibit coercion of the people?

Then don't coerce!

But it is still possible to leave a city of refugees.

at that time.

No matter which way the princes take over Luoyang, what they receive is a huge mess.

In order to relieve the victims, they even need to consume countless money and food, so they have no energy to pursue them.

What a poisonous plan!

Li Ru was known as a poisoner, but he didn't dare to make such a vicious strategy.

It's not that such things cannot be done, but because there is a sword pavilion on it!

Looking at all the actions of Jiange, "preserving the vitality of the world" is very important.

In the end, Li Ru still didn't say anything.

From this day on, Luoyang became a purgatory.

There is blood and tears everywhere!

On this day, after drinking, Dong Zhuo went to the harem as usual.

Or because he did too many bad things, Dong Zhuo brought a large number of guards by his side.

But as soon as he reached the palace gate, the guards beside Dong Zhuo firmly guarded Dong Zhuo in Gaixin.

I see.

In front of the gate of the palace, stood a man in gray clothes with a sword on his back.

Seeing the man in gray dressed like this, Dong Zhuo's cloudy eyes suddenly became clear.

"Jiange!"

It's too late, it's too soon.

The sword on the man's back in gray came out of its sheath with a groan, and the guards guarding Dong Zhuo only felt a black shadow flicker in front of them and a strong wind blowing.

Subsequently.

The guards saw that the man in gray had appeared in front of Dong Zhuo!

Seeing the sharp sword raised high by the man in gray in front of him, Dong Zhuo was so frightened that he slumped on the ground, but before he could say anything, he saw a silver sword slashing across.

Subsequently.

Dong Zhuo saw his head raised high!

Severe pain instantly filled his entire brain, but Dong Zhuo could no longer utter any words.

Dong Zhuo felt his head being lifted by a hand, and then fell into endless darkness.

And the gray-clothed man who was holding Dong Zhuo's head paused every step, his steps were steady, and his figure quickly moved away.

"Xiang... Xiangye was assassinated..."

With a scream, the entire Luoyang City was instantly alarmed.

All the generals of Dong Zhuo's army were shocked and furious.

And Lu Bu, who received the news, was even more furious.

What he never expected was that his adoptive father was assassinated so casually.

Not long after, a soldier hurried over to send a message—the gray-clothed man who had assassinated Xiangye appeared at the head of Luoyang City, and hung Xiangye's head on the flagpole at the top of the city.

Hearing the news, Lu Bu, who was furious, rode a red rabbit horse and rushed to the head of Luoyang City immediately without any nonsense.

at the same time.

Outside Luoyang City, the nineteen princes who were preparing to attack the city also received the news, and they were all shocked.

All the princes couldn't care about anything else, and all galloped towards the head of Luoyang City.

When they saw the head hanging high on the flagpole at the head of Luoyang City, all the princes lost their words.

What made everyone speechless was that the princes also saw the man in gray who had killed Dong Zhuo sitting cross-legged at the gate of the city.

Not far from the man in gray, many soldiers circled three times inside and outside three times, surrounding the man in Gaixin.

but.

Of all the soldiers, none of them dared to step forward.

of course.

It was not without reason. Not far from the gray-clothed man, countless soldiers with wounds on their legs, bleeding profusely, were hugging their thighs and crying in pain.

Howling!

Accompanied by the howling of horses, it was Lu Bu and a group of generals who ran to their bodies.

Seeing the "foster father" whose head was hung high on the flagpole and still dripping blood, Lu Bu was about to burst into tears.

Lu Bu: "Assassinate my adoptive father, you dare not run away, I have to say you are very arrogant!"

Seeing Lu Bu coming, the man in gray stood up and showed the sword in his hand.

"Want to avenge your adoptive father? Then come!"

Lu Bu raised Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand, and asked, "Someone who doesn't behead an unknown person, report his name!"

The man in gray: "I used to have a name, but I don't want to report it. I don't want to embarrass my name and the teacher who named me. Let's do it!"

Lu Bu took a deep look at the gray-clothed man in front of him, said nothing more, and immediately turned into a stream of light, charging towards the gray-clothed man.

Pfft!

With the sound of gold and iron clashing, Lu Bu's Fang Tian painted halberd stabbed straight at the gray-clothed man's abdomen.

Lu Bu's face sank like water, and he felt an unprecedented humiliation.

"Why don't you stop?"

Blood dripped from the corner of the gray-clothed man's mouth, and a contented smile appeared on his face.

"Assassination is Xiaodao... I have no regrets to die at the hands of the strongest grandmaster in the world!"

The man in gray died with a smile on his face.

Lu Bu was stunned.

The many generals who came together with Lu Bu were all stunned and did not say a word.

Many princes outside Luoyang City were also stunned.

There was silence between heaven and earth, except for the occasional sound of a horse's hoof stamping on the ground, and the snorting of a horse.

This gray-clothed man appeared like the wind, and also scattered like the wind.

From the beginning to the end, he only said one sentence, and he didn't even know his name.

But his words resounded in everyone's heart, shocking everyone.

Assassination, Nai Xiaodao!
