Chapter 2 Meeting Dong Zhuo
"kill!"
With Liu Cheng shouting loudly, the soldiers on both sides of the war stopped one after another. On this night, they didn't know whether the person came was an enemy or a friend, so they did not dare to take it lightly.
Liu Cheng rode his horse and rushed straight to the little eunuch who was like mowing grass. With the impact of the horse, he used his mind to activate the energy of the Dantian. With the help of the horse, he used his mind to activate the energy of the Dantian. The "lightning thunder" in the Tiangang Boiling Technique was used. The energy jumped out of the Dantian and ran down the meridians to the arm, exerting force with his waist and abdomen, and stabbed out like lightning. The little eunuch saw such a fast attack. A hurriedly swung his sword to block it, but he could not block it. He himself was not good at his strength. The long sword could not shake Liu Cheng's Changtong, but he was pierced by Liu Cheng's Changtong, and his whole body was strung on Changtong.
Liu Cheng pulled the reins with his hand, and the war horse stopped and went horizontally to the left. Long Tong in his hand waved, and the little eunuch's body hit Zhang Rang and others. Zhang Rang and others screamed in fear and ran away. Liu Cheng took the opportunity to rush to Liu Bian to jump off the horse and leaned on Chang Tong and bowed on one knee, saying, "Liu Cheng, the young leader of the Caomin Luoyang Yangwu Escort Agency, pays homage to Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, King Chenliu!"
Before Liu Bian could come back from his panic, King Chenliu Liu Xie immediately shouted: "Okay, okay, since ancient times, the most great achievements are to save the Lord! Liu Yishi, kill Zhang Rang and others quickly. I ask Your Majesty to give you an additional title!"
Liu Cheng was surprised. King Chenliu was so calm. Before he could sigh, he immediately agreed: "Yes!"
"Hahahaha..." At this time, Zhang Rang laughed loudly. After laughing, he knelt down at Liu Bian and others and said, "Your Majesty, I have no choice but to do something transcendent. I wanted to use Your Majesty to escape to Hebei to make a comeback. Unexpectedly, human calculations are not as good as God's calculations. This is also the fate of my old slaves and others. I am not willing to die. But the world is already in chaos. I am only asking Your Majesty to take care of you. I am going to go!" After that, I got up and threw myself into the rolling river and sank.
Duan Gui, Zhao Dian and other eunuchs saw Zhang Rang committing suicide by jumping into the river. They all knew that there was no hope of survival. They also lost their weapons and jumped into the river. In the blink of an eye, they were washed away by the flood. Only Zhao Chun, Pan Yin and other eunuchs who were dependent on Queen Mother He and Liu Xie were spared.
"It's really cheap these dog thieves!" Min Gong put his sword in the sheath and cursed with hatred, leading the soldiers to come forward to Liu Bian. Liu Xie and Empress Dowager He bowed to him: "Min Gong, the official from central Henan, came to rescue the emperor late. Please forgive me!"
The subordinates behind him also bowed and shouted: "Long live!"
Empress Dowager He quickly raised her hand and said, "Min Qing is here at the right time, otherwise the Ai family, His Majesty and King Chenliu would almost be held hostage by these dog thieves in Zhang Rang. Please calm down quickly!"
Min Gong got up and said to the emperor and Empress Dowager He: "Report to Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, Secretary Lu and I led the troops to chase him. At that fork in the road, he and I divided the troops and chased the west with their troops. I am worried that there will be eunuchs' accomplices around us to attack. Now our soldiers are few, and we are afraid that we will be unable to protect Your Majesty and Empress Dowager Zhouquan. I ask for an order to send people to chase Secretary Lu quickly and ask him to quickly lead his army back to join forces with us to guard the imperial guards and return to the palace!"
Liu Bian calmed down at this time and raised his hand and said, "It's accurate!"
Min Gong immediately sent someone to chase Lu Zhi, and then sent soldiers to protect the emperor, the queen mother and the king Chenliu, and guard the imperial guards along the original route back to Luoyang.
On the way back, Min Gong turned his head from time to time to look at Liu Cheng, and after walking for a while, he asked, "Sir Liu, why are you here at night?"
Liu Cheng knew that it would be aroused the suspicion of Lord Min, so he had to hold his fists and answer: "When I say that, Cao Min, his father and his brothers from Chang'an and returned to Luoyang. He happened to meet a group of Xiliang cavalry at the fork in front of him. But the Western Liang cavalry rushed up and chopped us without saying a word and snatched all the escort carts. Cao Min's father and brothers were killed. Cao Min was injured after killing several people, and was lucky enough to escape! There were still some bodies of Xiliang cavalry killed by Cao Min in the grass not far from the fork in the fork in the grass!"
"Xiliang Cavalry?" Min Gong and Empress Dowager He were shocked when they heard this. The two brothers Liu Bian and Liu Xie were still young and did not understand the affairs of the government, but the two were involuntarily frightened.
Min Gong hurriedly asked, "Liu Yishi, this is not a joke. How could the Xiliang cavalry appear here? It is impossible for foreign enemies to enter Beijing without the order of the commander to transfer the commander!"
Liu Cheng shook his head: "Empress Dowager, Lord Min, everything Caomin said is true. Luoyang City has been in such a turmoil for so long. Maybe a minister has already issued a false decree to Dong Zhuo to go to Beijing to protect the emperor? Maybe it was General He, maybe it was Zhang Rang and others, who could be accurate?"
Min Gong was nervous and commanded the soldiers to protect the imperial guards to speed up the speed of rushing back. He soon joined Lu Zhi, who was returning to the army. Nearly 200 people gathered together. Lu Zhi met with the emperor and the empress dowager, and each talked about the Nangong Incident and the passage of being held hostage by Zhang Rang and others, and cried bitterly. It took both sides to calm down and then continue on their way.
As soon as the imperial guards arrived at the fork in the road, they were about to turn to Luoyang, they heard a large number of horse hooves coming from the west. Everyone couldn't help but turn their heads and look, and saw countless cavalry coming towards them like a fire dragon.
The emperor and others were shocked. Lu Zhi immediately comforted him and sent someone to investigate. The investigators quickly rushed back and reported: "It was Dong Zhuo, the governor of Bingzhou, who led his army!"
Liu Cheng's words were confirmed. Dong Zhuo was really here. No matter who faked the imperial edict to recruit Dong Zhuo, this was not good news for the emperor, the queen mother, Lu Zhi and Min Gong.
Since occupying Xiliang, Dong Zhuo has not followed the emperor's orders and led the governor of Liangzhou. He refused to accept the governor of Bingzhou who was enthroned before Emperor Ling's death and did not hand over the military power. Now this man leads his army to Luoyang to do what he wants to do? All fools know that this guy is afraid he is ill-behaved.
Perhaps Dong Zhuo had already received the news. He was riding a horse in front. When he saw the emperor's imperial carriage at the fire in front of him, he immediately ran over and shouted: "Dong Zhuo from Xiliang is here, where is the emperor?"
The young emperor Liu Bian was so scared that he fell from the horse's back by the roar. The guards next to him exclaimed, and he was almost caught by him, but he was already so scared that his face turned pale and his whole body was trembling.
The Western Liang cavalry stopped in front of the imperial guards, and the great momentum made the soldiers around the imperial guards look shocked and retreat continuously.
A big man with a round face with a fleshy face and a steel needle like a steel needle grabbed the reins and sat on the horse's back, looking at Liu Bian in a dragon robe, and shouted, "Who is the emperor?"
Liu Bian was frightened by this guy's fierce look and fell to the ground again, which disappointed Dong Zhuo very much. The nine-year-old Liu Xie hurriedly helped Liu Bian up and asked, "Brother, are you okay?"
Liu Cheng couldn't see Dong Feifei's arrogant look and immediately shouted, "Bold, who are you? Since you saw the emperor here, why don't you get off your horse and worship him?"
Dong Zhuo looked angry. No one dared to scold him like this for many years. His face was a little uneasy. Seeing that Liu Cheng was wearing civilian outfit, he must not be an amazing figure. He immediately reached out and pulled out the sword from his waist and pointed it at Liu Cheng and was furious: "I am Dong Zhuo, the governor of Liangzhou, who are you?"
Liu Cheng tightened his hand and was not afraid of danger: "I am just a small bodyguard in Luoyang City, so there is no need to condescend to me! It's because Lord Dong just called himself the governor of Liangzhou. I wonder if this governor of Liangzhou was enthroned by the imperial court or you were self-proclaimed?"
"Haha, hehe!" Dong Zhuo smiled anxiously. Liu Cheng said his shamelessness on the spot. How could he not be angry? "A merely a cannibalist dared to be so arrogant in front of me. Someone came and dragged him aside to me and killed me!"
"Yes, sir!" A general behind Dong Zhuo responded to his order, holding a big knife in his hand, and then stepped forward and swung the knife three times and slashed at Liu Cheng. The emperor, the queen mother and others were so scared that they screamed on the spot.
"What a thief!" Liu Cheng shouted loudly, and faced the challenge in his hand, waved at the big knife that was slashing. With a "date", everyone around him was shocked and his ears were numb.
Liu Cheng and the Xiliang General were also shocked and took a step back at the same time. The Xiliang General was shocked and angry. Unexpectedly, he met a good opponent here. He immediately stared at Liu Cheng and shouted: "Xiliang Huaxiong does not kill the nameless people, that man, come and report it!"
The foreign energy that Liu Cheng suddenly obtained was always ready to move, and he needed to fight continuously to completely absorb it. At this moment, there was another fight, and he was a little excited. He thrust Po Juntong in his hand and pointed at the General Xiliang and shouted: "Your grandfather's name is Liu Cheng! General Xiliang is just like this. If you have the ability, let's fight for 300 rounds!"
"I'm afraid you won't?"
Lu Zhi had had conflicts with Dong Zhuo before. He didn't want to come forward and provoke Dong Zhuo, but he was about to fight again at this moment. The fight was a little bit, and it would be a big problem if he accidentally injured the emperor and the empress dowager. He could no longer care about anything else. He rushed forward and shouted, "Stop! Dong Zhuo, what do you want to do when you use swords and guns in front of the imperial guards? Do you want to rebel?"
When Dong Zhuo saw that the person who was talking was Lu Zhi, he thought of the conflict with him and was about to turn against him. However, he wanted to lead his army to Luoyang to endure it. He couldn't help but look at Liu Cheng a few times, hesitated for a moment, and immediately dismounted and paid homage to Liu Bian: "Mr. Dong Zhuo, the governor of Bingzhou, paid homage to His Majesty the Emperor!"
Empress Dowager He, Min Gong and the soldiers couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Before Liu Bian could come back from the fright, he was calmer than King Chenliu Liu Xie. He calmed down and raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty asked Dong Qing to calm down and immediately protect the imperial guards and Lord Min, and Immediately, guard the imperial guards back to the palace!"
"I obey the order!" Dong Zhuo agreed and stood up. Liu Bian's performance just now disappointed him, but Liu Xie's performance made him shine.
When it was just dawn, the army guards returned to Luoyang. After entering the city, Liu Cheng was a gangster. He parted ways with the army without saying hello to anyone, and quickly rushed back to the escort agency on a horse. Now the city of Luoyang is still in chaos. Yesterday's Nangong Incident lasted for a whole night. Until this time, many rioters were still in chaos in the city, and some gangsters and bullies took the opportunity to catch fish.
