Ailang Suiyang Military Camp received an urgent report from Chen Gong forwarded by Zhuge Mengxue. He opened it and read it. He was surprised and couldn't help but pace back and forth in the big tent. Seeing this, the generals couldn't help but look at each other. Zhao Yun couldn't help but clasp his fists and asked, "General, I don't know what happened?" Ailang stopped and frowned and said, "The barbarian coalition suddenly attacked Jiguan. Luoyang was in danger. Cao Pi couldn't hold on anymore and planned to give up Luoyang! Damn!" The generals looked at each other, but they didn't expect that the situation in Luoyang would become like this.

Zhao Yun looked worried and said to Ai Lang: "General, if Cao Pi withdraws, the barbarian army will inevitably ravage my China's confidant land. The consequences will be unimaginable! I am afraid that the prosperity accumulated in Luoyang over the past few hundred years will be burned!"

Ailang said annoyedly: "This is what I'm worried about! Damn! How can I stand this tone when an outsider is domineering and doing things in his home?" Then he quickly walked behind the Shuai Case, sat down, picked up a pen and wrote a few orders, called his personal soldiers, and ordered him to send them immediately. Then Ailang said to Zhao Yun again: "Zilong, I have just passed the order, and you are responsible for the fight to eliminate the Yellow Turban Rebellion Army for me." Zhao Yun was stunned and asked with his fists, "General is leaving?" Ailang frowned and cursed: "Although I am not a good person, I can't watch Luoyang be ravaged by foreign races! If this happens, wouldn't this general become a joke?"

In the middle of the night, Zhuge Mengxue, who had just been sleeping, was awakened by her female guard. The female guard clasped his fists and said, "Madam, the lord is back!" Zhuge Mengxue was quite surprised and stood up immediately. At this moment, a figure swayed at the door, and a man walked in, and then Ailang's voice sounded: "Mengxue, I'm back!" Zhuge Mengxue hurriedly greeted her, and saw that her husband was dusty, she couldn't help but feel strange. She caught Ailang and asked, "Why did your husband suddenly come back to Xuchang?" Ailang sat down at the round table, picked up a teapot and poured himself a full cup of tea and drank it. He said to Zhuge Mengxue, "Cao Pi wants to give up Luoyang, I can't watch Luoyang fall into the hands of a foreign race!"

Zhuge Mengxue sat down beside Ailang and frowned and asked, "Husband is planning to intervene? But our army is currently pursuing the Yellow Turban Army. The hasty mobilization will not only fail our previous arrangements, but also have no time to rescue Luoyang!"

Ailang said: "I don't plan to transfer those troops. Don't we still have 30,000 troops in Xuanyuan Pass? What are enough!" Zhuge Mengxue was surprised and said anxiously: "Husband, it's so risky!..." Ailang raised his hand to interrupt her and said firmly: "Some things can be ignored, but some things must be done no matter what! I have decided, so don't say it!" Ailang seems to be easy to talk to, but once he makes up his mind, no one can change it. Seeing that his husband's determination is made, Zhuge Mengxue stopped persuading him, and couldn't help but sigh and said in his heart: Husband! Others say you are a jackal, but in my eyes, who in the world is more like a great hero than you? I'll go even if I have thousands of people!

Ailang said: "I have ordered Zhao Zilong to be the commander of the front enemy and be responsible for the extermination of the Yellow Turban Army. However, you have to take the responsibility for grasping the overall situation. Once the Yellow Turban Army is wiped out, you must immediately mobilize troops to reinforce me." Zhuge Mengxue nodded and said: "I understand!"

That night, Ailang left Xuchang and rushed to Xuanyuan Pass. A day later, Ailang arrived at Xuanyuan Pass. Chen Gong and Yan Liang, who were discussing the current situation in Luoyang, suddenly heard that the general was coming, and were shocked and hurried out to greet him. Seeing Lu Bu strode, he immediately stepped forward and said, "General (lord)!"

Several people entered the tent, Ai Lang turned around and asked, "How is the situation in Luoyang?" Chen Gong immediately clasped his fists and said, "According to the report sent by the scout not long ago, Cao Pi had already crossed the Yellow River and retreated to Hanoi County with his family members of civil and military supplies, as well as a large number of food, supplies, gold, silver and treasures. A large number of people were brought to their side, and the wailing sounds along the way were shocking!"

Ailang couldn't help but curse, "Cao Cao is such a hero! How could he give birth to such a useless son! The internal struggle is amazing, but the battlefield of the battle is a waste!" Then he asked Chen Gong, "Where are the barbarian army and Liu Bei's army now?" Chen Gong said, "Shortly after Cao Pi evacuated Luoyang, Liu Bei broke through Hangu Pass and entered Gucheng County, 60 miles west of Luoyang! However, according to the report of the scouts not long ago, they did not continue to advance east after entering Gugucheng. I guess they did not want to collide with the barbarian coalition forces!"

Ailang hurriedly asked, "Where is the barbarian coalition now?" "The Cao army guarding Jiguan is still fighting to the death! But I guess it's just recently that Jiguan should be lost."

At this time, a general suddenly ran in from outside. Everyone couldn't help but look at him. The general was originally going to report to Chen Gong and Yan Liang, but suddenly saw the general here, so he quickly reported to the general: "Report to the general, the scout just heard an urgent report, Ji Pass was lost, and the barbarian coalition forces had broken through Ji Pass and drove straight in!"

Ailang couldn't help but curse. Chen Gong said, "After Ji Pass, the barbarian vanguard cavalry will enter Luoyang within two days. If we leave the time we have been delayed on the scout road, the enemy vanguard will enter Luoyang within one day."

Ailang said firmly: "Our cavalry can feel Luoyang within one day, and I will lead the army to set off immediately!" Chen Gong was shocked and asked hurriedly: "General is going to resist the barbarian coalition?" Ailang said: "Of course!" Chen Gong frowned and said: "Lord! My subordinates would never want to see the barbarians ravage my China confidant land, but the situation is quite unfavorable to our army at this moment! Most of our troops are encircling and suppressing the Yellow Turban Rebellion Army. Now the only ones that can be used are 30,000 infantry and cavalry here. It is impossible to turn the tide with 30,000 soldiers and horses!"

Ailang shouted, "You can do it! You can do it even if you can't do it! I've made up my mind, so don't say much!" Chen Gong felt very depressed, and sighed, and said with a fist, "I'll follow the order!"

Seeing that Chen Gong had no objection, Ailang immediately said, "Old Chen, I will leave you three thousand infantry troops to defend Xuanyuan Pass." "Yes." Ailang immediately said to Yan Liang, "Yan Liang, go and gather all the troops here for me!" Yan Liang clasped his fists and went in a hurry.

Not long after, a cavalry unit of 5,000 people left Xuanyuan Pass and advanced northward under the leadership of Ailang. The destination was Luoyang more than a hundred miles northwest. Shortly after Ailang led the cavalry to leave, the 22,000 infantry led by Yan Liang also drove out of Xuanyuan Pass.

At about the same time, Liu Bei, who led his army to Gucheng, also received news that the barbarian coalition broke through Jiguan and drove straight forward. Liu Bei did not want a big war with the barbarian coalition in this state, and immediately led his army to evacuate Gucheng and retreat to Hangu Pass. At this time, Luoyang City seemed to have been pushed to the forefront. Jiguan was lost, and the barbarian army was about to come to the city. The military and civilians in the city were panicked! The guard Liu Xun felt that the situation was urgent and wanted to give up Luoyang, but Guo Jia's incident happened.

But his words forced him to decide to stay and defend. Guo Jia said to him: "General Liu, your parents, wife and children are now retreating to Hanoi with the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister ordered General Liu to defend Luoyang to death. If General Liu leaves without a fight, General Liu will certainly be unable to escape and die, but he is afraid that his parents, wife and children will be implicated by the General and suffer together! But if the general defends Luoyang and dies in battle, both parents, wife and children can be safeguarded. The Prime Minister will never treat the family of the heroes unfairly. If you go, please think twice!”

After Liu Xun left, Guo Jia lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling, looking very calm.

At this time, the old servant walked in and bowed and said, "Young Master, General Liu has gone back." "Well, you have worked hard, go and rest." The old servant responded, but did not leave. Seeing that he was eager to speak, Guo Jia asked with a smile: "Do you have something to say to me?"

The old servant couldn't help but clasp his fists and said, "Young Master, I really don't understand why the young master refused to evacuate with the Prime Minister. Isn't it just a dead end to stay in Luoyang?" Guo Jia smiled slightly and murmured to himself: "I can't hold on for long, so why should I be so scared and flee for my life again! It's better to stay here quietly and wait for the last moment! It's a blessing to die in my own home!... I offered the Prime Minister's advice to give up Luoyang. Although it was a forced one, it was my plan to make Luoyang fall into the hands of a foreign race! I, Guo Jia, have been determined to support the world since I was a child, but now it has caused my Chinese country to fall into a foreign race. It's really a crime that cannot be punished. How can I thank the world if I don't die!"

The old servant was shocked and hurriedly said, "Young Master! This is not your fault at all!"

Guo Jia waved his hand, looked at him, his expression calmed down, and said, "You don't have to stay here to accompany me to die. Now go to the account to pay a hundred taels of silver and go to escape!" The old servant suddenly knelt down and cried, "I will never deviate from the young master! I will live and die with the young master!" Guo Jia looked at him and couldn't help but sigh.

After Liu Xun gave up the idea of ​​escaping, he immediately returned to the city wall and dispatched troops to arrange war defense matters. However, he only had three thousand old and weak troops in his hands. It seemed too inappropriate to arrange defense matters on a big city like Luoyang. No matter how he arranged it, he felt that the entire defense line was full of loopholes and could not be known as a dense defensive line.

At this moment, the urgent report suddenly came. The barbarian coalition forces built a floating bridge near Pingyin County. The 30,000 Xianbei and Xiongnu cavalry had crossed the Yellow River. Liu Xun was shocked and couldn't help but murmured: "It's coming so fast!" Then he quickly ordered the entire army to prepare for war. The people in the city heard that the barbarian coalition's vanguard had crossed the Yellow River and were about to come to Luoyang. They were all shocked and didn't know what to do. The huge Luoyang city was silent, and only occasionally remembered the crying of children and women, which made the atmosphere of the entire city extremely desolate!
