Zhang ordered a group of eunuchs to kidnap the young emperor Liu Bian and flee to Lubei. The situation in the palace was initially settled, and the courtiers either led troops or servants and left the city one after another.

Except for a few people who were more cautious and had a sense of luck and wanted to look elsewhere, most of the courtiers stopped searching and went straight to Lubei County to look for the emperor.

The young emperor Liu Bian and the king of Chenliu Liu Xie were rescued by Cai Yan, the daughter of Cai Yong. They protected the eunuchs who held the emperor hostage in Lubei County and were massacred.

At this time, in addition to the ministers in the court, the newly appointed governor of Bingzhou, former general Dong Zhuo led a large cavalry across the river to the south, running hundreds of miles at night, intending to go to Luoyang, but he also changed his route to Lubei County on the way.

This time, Dong Zhuo's cavalry marched eagerly. It was already dark at night and they were marching with fire. The road in the direction they were traveling was smooth, so they approached Lubei County earlier than the Central Army.

"My lord, the harriers and falcons have come to report. Wherever we advance, every seedling will be destroyed. The Wuyang Lord's Mansion will be burned."

"In the great chaos in Luoyang, Yuan Wei massacred the inner palace under the guise of an imperial edict. Zhang Rang's eunuchs may have fled to Lubei with the young emperor. This time, the lord took over the position of former general and guarded the capital."

"Zhi Jinwu and Guang Luxun have only been in office for a short period of time. They can be blamed for their dereliction of duty and should be punished first. The power of the imperial army can be withdrawn."

The army was running forward, and among Dong Zhuo's troops, Li Ru, who was riding in the same carriage with Dong Zhuo, looked happy and explained the situation in Luoyang to Dong Zhuo.

"Haha, the Central Plains family is nothing more than this. With the collapse of the relatives and the death of the eunuchs, the Yuan family is really bold and reckless. I originally wanted to take the position of Shizhou Mu, but now it seems that this is the time for my Dong family to prosper." Dong Zhuo said happily.

Laughing, the flesh on his face trembled, and his eyes narrowed.

"The disciples of the Yuan family in Runan are all over the world. They used to be role models for scholars, but now they are easier to get along with."

"Haha, in order for my lord to march into the army, my lord, the former general's position came in time. This time we have great righteousness, so the political leaders of the Yuan family can ignore it for now. Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu both command imperial guards. If there is any disharmony, they can chariot

Cavalry General He Miao’s name is used to punish the lawless people.”

"The Yuan family wanted to take over the world through eunuchs, but it was unwise to violate public taboos before gaining military power. Four generations and three princes? Haha, you are a family in the camp." Li Ru said with a disdainful smile.

The eunuch beheaded He Jin, and He Jin's men just killed the eunuch to avenge the general, but in the blink of an eye, He Miao was beheaded again.

What does a general of chariots and cavalry do? Counterinsurgency.

There was a lot of fanfare in front of the Kowloon Gate, and among He Jin's staff was Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, who took the lead in revenge and fame. Without Yuan's approval, only a fool would stab the Empress Dowager's half-brother, the Han Chariot General.

I don’t know if the Yuan family is worried that He Miao will ascend to the throne after He Jin’s death, so he is crazy? Or does he really think that he has the ability to lead the world’s nobles? Or is he simply being deceived?

The eunuch secretly killed the general, and a group of men helped the general to avenge him, and stabbed the cavalry general with his backhand. After this cunning operation, there is no need to think carefully, what is the difference between what these men did and what the eunuch did?

Not to mention the queen mother, in front of the emperor, that is, in front of everyone in the world, if someone wants to redress the injustice of the cavalry general and punish the lawless, it seems to be justifiable, no problem, right?

Well, it doesn't matter who killed He Miao. Anyway, it was Runan's Yuan family who was in charge from the beginning. Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were both there when He Miao died. Since he was leading the army, there was no way he could get rid of the blame.

"Humph, the Yuan family of Runan is a prodigal family. If you know your interests, I wouldn't mind accompanying them in carrying the sedan chair. However, how should the Dingyuan family and our King Dongping be positioned?"

Dong Zhuo also snorted disdainfully. Looking at the firelight of Lubei County City in the distance, Dong Zhuo asked Li Ru.

"If there was a dispute between the state and herdsmen earlier, we would indeed suppress Ding Yuan. But now that there is hope for the central government, if Ding Yuan is interested, we can live together. Liangzhou and Bingzhou can each take one state."

"If they don't know how to advance or retreat, we should use the power of thunder to destroy them, merge the states, and unite the powerful Liangzhou. The land of the two states is enough for us to mediate with the gentry in the court." Li Ru analyzed and said slowly.

"Well, Wen You and I have the same thoughts." Dong Zhuo nodded, then looked at Li Ru, waiting for him to tell Liu Cang.

"As for King Dongping, haha, my lord, King Dongping is really difficult to predict by common sense, and more contact and testing are needed." Speaking of Liu Cang, Li Ru had a wry smile on his face.

"Alas, I have met countless people in my life, but I don't know what Liu Cang is thinking." Dong Zhuo sighed. Although he did not blame Li Ru, there was some disappointment on his face.

"The outside world often says that King Dongping values ​​the people and his reputation, but in recent years, there has been a rumor among scholars that King Dongping has a reputation of being carefree and neglecting the people." Li Ru frowned and spoke.

"The new emperor has ascended the throne, and King Dongping has been hiding in the mountains. There was a chaos in Luoyang, and when we reported it earlier, he actually led a battalion of female soldiers with heavy armor and wounded doctors into Luoyang to rescue people."

"He found high-yielding crops for the Han Dynasty and spread them to various places, but he did not care about his own reputation. With Cai Gong by his side, he said that he did not know how to grow something, but he did not believe it."

"Based on the rumors from various sources, according to Ru Ru, it seems appropriate that he likes freedom and cares about people's livelihood. He doesn't seem like a person who likes to fight. But I don't know what his attitude is towards the royal family." Li Ru guessed.

"This time I have more than 10,000 elite cavalry, 100 soldiers with dead hands, and 2,000 iron prison troops. Liu Cang sent his elite troops to build roads, maybe he can take the opportunity to test them?" Dong Zhuo asked Li Ru with a gleam in his eyes.

"My lord, please be at peace. Let's contact him first before talking." Li Ru shook his head.

"King Dongping has a tough temperament. We may be able to fight with him, but it is difficult to lose troops and generals. We must not let others reap the benefits."

When Li Ru said this, Dong Zhuo was unwilling to give up and followed the army with his carriage. Suddenly, he saw that there seemed to be military horses galloping out from the direction of Lubei County.

In just a short moment, the sound of galloping horses and the treading of the ground came in front of the army.

Under the night sky, the army on the opposite side was brightly lit.

The sparkling light reflected from the soldier's armor made Li Ru startled when he saw it. Dong Zhuo even stood up with his eyes full of doubts, standing on the carriage.

"Roar~~" The roar of the tiger shook the field, and the horses of Dong Zhuo's former army neighed and panicked.

Dong Zhuo had great ambitions, and because he was familiar with Liu Cang in his early years, Dong Zhuo regarded Liu Cang as his imaginary enemy.

After the rebellion in Liangzhou was suppressed, Dong Zhuo used his elite soldiers to hunt tigers for food. The elite cavalry also deliberately made their horses accustomed to the ferocious beasts.

Most of the horses in Dong Zhuo's army are not afraid of tigers and bears, but the roar of the tiger in front of them frightens the horses, but the tiger running in front of the army is too big!

Two times? Three times? More than twice, right? Strictly speaking, it's not much bigger than an ordinary tiger.

But the tiger, whose head naturally droops and can hold the head of a strong adult man, gives people a sense of hugeness.

The white tiger roared proudly, and the war horses were frightened. But it was just a strange beast. It was not the white tiger that really shocked Dong Zhuo. It was the sudden cavalry of an army from the opposite side that really made him difficult to calm down.

"Damn it! Didn't you say that Feixiong Camp reorganized the wolf army? What are these things? Who said Liu Cang sent his elite to build roads!?" Dong Zhuo scolded, and Li Ru was speechless.

The situation in Luoyang was urgent. Dong Zhuo only led more than 10,000 elite troops to rush to Luoyang. Just now, they were talking about having a fight with Liu Cang. This fight also took into account the fact that Liu Cang could gather thousands of soldiers from Shanglin.

But in front of me, there was an army in formation, riding suddenly. All the soldiers were armored. The backs of turtles were guarding the waist, and the black light was black gold. The exposed armor plates were actually made of fine iron.

Marde, this kind of compound forging, the iron that is forged over hundreds of times is too luxurious to be used on an ordinary blade, right?

When Dong Zhuo's soldiers came out of Hedong, he had already observed the elite wolf army, all of whom were wearing armor. The sight of the water-patterned Mo Dao had already made him feel distressed.

It was only assumed that Liu Cang's Flying Bear Battalion had reorganized the Wolf Army. Looking at the sudden cavalry of a battalion running out of thousands of horses, it was obvious that these were the Flying Bears of the early years.

"Chirp~~" The war cavalry approached, and the flock spread its wings.

Big wither! It's real. The one riding on the horse is the Flying Bear Camp, and the wolf army is accompanied by falcons. They are not the same standard at all.

Gold withered in the sky, circling over the cavalry. Dong Zhuo gave an order, and the whole army immediately mounted.

Dong Zhuo's carriage arrived at the front army, facing thousands of giant tigers riding on it. Seeing the horses in the army panic, Dong Zhuo couldn't help but raise his voice and shout.

"Where is King Dongping!? This is Dong Zhuo, who is here to find His Majesty." When Dong Zhuo shouted, generals Hua Xiong and Guo Bin had gathered in front of the carriage. More elite soldiers from the front army formed a formation with spears, bows and strings stretched, and they were on guard. Giant tiger.

As Dong Zhuo shouted, the galloping horses on the opposite side slowed down. There seemed to be a woman's arrogant shout, and the giant tiger stopped galloping. Dong Zhuo's front army horses gradually calmed down under the comfort of the cavalry.

"My lord has not returned from Luoyang. Your Majesty is here. General Dong is here to pay homage." The two armies were tens of meters apart, and the other side responded immediately.

Riding suddenly to divide the waves, a carriage came out of the army. Liu Bian and Liu Xie rode in the carriage.

Liu Bian cocked his head and glared at the mountain king who was pacing in front of the army. Liu Xie sat upright and looked at Dong Zhuo, who was leading thousands of cavalry. His eyes occasionally glanced at Cai Yan, who was riding forward with his armor and stomach holding a gun.

Weapons are no child's play. Liu Cang has always advocated the thickest armor and the lightest beating.

Giant tigers are different species, such as the legendary white tiger, the leader of the army. The white tiger wandered back in front of the army, and Dong Zhuo and the others did not dare to approach.

It wasn't until a female general emerged from the opposite army, who shouted, and the white tiger swung the tail of the whip as thick as a strong man's arm around to the rear of the cavalry, that Dong Zhuo and others finally let go of their nervousness.

"Daughter of the people Cai Yan. General Dong, your majesty is here and would like to pay homage." Cai Yan put the cavalry in front of the army, and several generals in the army guarded him.

Alas~, forget it, everyone covered their faces with armor, and Dong Zhuo couldn't tell who was the soldier and who was the general for a moment. Anyway, there was someone guarding Cai Yan.

Dong Zhuo first stared at Cai Yan, then ignored the greetings, dismounted hastily, and led the crowd to bow down before Liu Bian's carriage.

Dong Zhuo shouted and paid homage, but many of them were thinking: Madhu, riding suddenly with a halberd, hiding his face with a beast's mask, having badger sacs hanging on his horse, and some of them would have thief-like tattoos on their shoulders.

Wolverine, the Flying Bear Camp is gone.

Now Hua Xiong, who was the most brave among Dong Zhuo's troops, was looking over and over among the flying bear soldiers.

The armor is too thick, and it is difficult to identify the body shape while sitting on a horse. I can't see the faces, and I can't tell who is who. I'm not sure which of them are my old acquaintances.

Hua Xiong thought that after years of hard work and hard training, he should be much stronger than in his early years.

With a cold expression on his face and his shoulders shrunk, Hua Xiong and Guo Si, who was slumped over, came together, making the figures of Zhang Ji and Li Jue more prominent.

"General Dong, Your Highness has already given instructions. If General Dong arrives, please also ask the general to lead his troops to escort the emperor back to the palace."

There was no conflict or accident. After paying homage to Liu Bian, Dong Zhuo's eyes moved. When he was about to greet Cai Yan, Cai Yan spoke seriously.

Dong Zhuo's eyes flashed as he looked at Li Ru, and the two of them couldn't help but feel surprised.
