Chapter 236 Burning Luoyang
Dong Zhuo, who retreated first, met Lv Bu who was supporting him on the way. Naturally, he praised Yifan lavishly. Then Lv Bu dispatched most of the cavalry to escort Dong Zhuo back first.

Just when Guo Si was extremely irritable, Lu Bu appeared.At this moment, Guo Si was so excited that he almost cried as if he had grasped at straws.

"Woo!!" When Huo Yu found Lu Bu, he ordered the horn to be blown.Whether it was Feiyuqi or Baima Yicong, they all retreated in an orderly manner, widening the distance from the Xiliang army.

After hearing Guo Bang's brief introduction, Lu Bu was also the first and the second big.The tactics of the Liaodong cavalry are obviously the result of long-term training. Even if he leads the Bingzhou cavalry himself, he may not be able to take advantage of it.

"My lord, is this considered to be selling Lu Bu's favor?" Zhao Yun asked after returning.

"Forget it, it doesn't count! It is estimated that Dong thief has fled back to Sishui Pass." Huo Yu looked at the Bingzhou cavalry in front of him and said slowly.

In this way, the two cavalry tacitly kept the fighting distance, and it was not until Sishui pass that Huo Yu gave the order to retreat.

In the coalition camp, Yuan Shao remained silent with a livid face.God's will tricks people, Dong Zhuo can escape in such a desperate situation, he, the leader of the coalition army, really can't hold back his face.

"Huo Zhengbei, why did you stagnate before Sishui Pass?" Yuan Shu asked Huo Yu angrily.

"The generals are all cavalry, how do we attack the city?" Huo Yu shot back with a white look at Yuan Shu.

"Gaolu, what Brother Polu said is the truth! You can prove it!" At this time Cao Cao was the first to speak up. He didn't want Yuan Shu, a bastard, to offend Huo Yu completely, and finally lead to a civil war between the coalition forces.

Just when Yuan Shu was about to speak again, Yuan Shao's voice came in time.

"Okay, let's not say a few words! The coalition army has lost a lot, and they need to rest for a few days before attacking Sishui Pass!"

Dong Zhuo, who fled back to Sishui Pass in one breath, was terribly frightened.After a brief conversation with Li Ru, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru led some troops and Lv Bu's Bingzhou army to flee back to Luoyang in a panic overnight, leaving only Guo Si to guard Sishui Pass.

The people along the road were all surprised when they saw the panic-stricken Xiliang army.Thinking about how majestic it was when Dong Zhuo led the army into and out of Luoyang, but now it looks like this.The common people just watched all of this and did not dare to speak nonsense.

Back in Luoyang, Dong Zhuo couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and Dang even ordered the whole city to be put under martial law to prepare for defense.

However, Li Ru persuaded: "Father-in-law, it is only a matter of time before the coalition forces conquer Sishuiguan! Now the only way to move the capital?"

Hearing this, Dong Zhuo's complexion became ugly, Luoyang's luxury, he was reluctant to part with everything in Luoyang.Giving Luoyang over like this is like cutting a piece of flesh off him.

"Just surrender Luoyang to the princes of the Guandong?!" Dong Zhuo asked unwillingly.

"Father-in-law, do you still remember that nursery rhyme?" Looking at Dong Zhuo who was still hesitating, Li Ru reminded anxiously.

After a pause, Li Ru said again: "Moving the capital to Chang'an, firstly, is to avoid the front of the Guandong princes; secondly, the coalition forces of the Guandong princes are unpopular, once Luoyang is conquered, there will be infighting. We will wait and see what happens, and then wait for the opportunity to move!"

"Well, let's do this! Send an order to move the capital to Chang'an. Send an order to Guo Bang to withdraw his troops after holding on for a few days."

"promise"

"Wait, all the wealth of Luoyang and the ministers of the court will be taken away! And... and the tombs of the emperors of the past dynasties were sent to be dug, don't let one go." Just as Li Ru was about to leave, Dong Zhuo added.He didn't want to leave Luoyang's wealth to the princes of the Guandong.

Following Dong Zhuo's general order, Xiliang soldiers rushed into the mansions and palaces of the ministers like wolves and tigers, and forced the court officials to relocate. It is self-evident that few resisters will end up.

Immediately, the whole Luoyang and the mansions of the ministers were crying and shouting.As for the young emperor Liu Xie, Xiliang soldiers were more polite, at least they were recited.

Two days later, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru first set off with the emperor and a small number of ministers in the direction of Chang'an.go.After Dong Zhuo left, the uncontrolled Xiliang soldiers began to do evil in Luoyang City, searching for the people's fat and anointing everywhere, and the whole Luoyang fell into chaos for a while.

When Guo Si led his troops back to Luoyang, the whole situation was out of control.Therefore, Guo Si and his men also joined the looting team.There was chaos in Luoyang City, and the cries of the people were everywhere. The Xiliang Army that was retreating was also mixed with a large number of people.

The prosperous Luoyang has fallen into an unprecedented military disaster at this time.The Xiliang army murdered, set fire, raped and looted everywhere, doing all kinds of evil.The entire Luoyang was in flames, not to mention the common people, even the family members of the ministers and ministers who had no time to leave also suffered.

Most of the officials were escorted to Chang'an with the emperor, and Dong Zhuo, a family member of Huang Fusong and others, who had a high official position and reputation, personally ordered someone to "protect" them and escort them to Chang'an.

On the third day, the coalition forces were shocked when they learned that Sishuiguan was already an empty city.In fact, Huo Yu got the news when Guo Si was retreating, but he didn't say anything.It should be because Huo Yu's target is those people who have been raided and anointed, if he doesn't give the Xiliang army enough time, all his arrangements will be in vain.

After the coalition forces entered Sishui Pass, Yuan Shao stopped again, but Huo Yu didn't care, because the [-] wolf cavalry led by Guan Yu had already arrived at the predetermined position.

At the end of December 190 A.D., Dong Zhuo was defeated at Sishuiguan, and then forced the Han court to move its capital to Chang'an.However, the Kwantung princes headed by Yuan Shao had their own ghosts and delayed their advance, so that Dong Zhuo could retreat calmly. In the end, Yuan Shao and others still refused to send troops if they hadn't learned that the Xiliang army had set fire to Luoyang.

In order to make up for the lack of population in Chang'an, Xiliang soldiers even forcibly drove the people of Luoyang to migrate.

In this way, the bloody killing lasted for three days, and various corpses could be seen everywhere in Luoyang City.Even Luoshui was filled with all kinds of corpses, and a strong smell of blood permeated the sky of Luoyang.

If there is any safe place in Luoyang, the answer is yes.At this moment, Cai Yong and Liu Chong are hiding in an underground secret room somewhere in the Hero Building.

"Ai! Ai!" Cai Yong kept walking back and forth and sighed.

"Bo Jie, there is nothing the two of us can do, besides, the Dark Feather Guard has already saved many people, so we can only wait for Yu'er to lead the army to arrive as soon as possible!"

"Dong Zhuo is a traitor, the crime cannot be punished!" Cai Yong cursed angrily.

In the camp of the coalition forces, after learning of the crimes committed by the Xiliang army in Luoyang, Yuan Shao summoned all the generals to discuss countermeasures.No, nearly an hour has passed, and there is still no answer.

"Leader, what is there to talk about at this time! Luoyang is in danger, and the people of Luoyang are bleeding!" Cao Cao got up and said hurriedly to Yuan Shao.
