The messenger He Jin sent was Cao Cao.
Chen Lang and Cao Cao made small talk before separating to their seats. Chen Lang asked: "Why did the great general send Brother Meng De here?"
Cao Cao Cao said: "The Great General is afraid of Brother Chen, so he sent me to send a message to Brother Chen, to stay behind and guard the fir pool and not enter the Luoyang without permission."
Guan Yu, who was standing beside Chen Lang, frowned and said angrily: "With the death of your majesty, this subordinate should pay his respects. The actions of the Great General are not only absurd, but also presumptuous! "
Chen Lang smiled and said to Cao Cao, "This one is only a small General Ying Yang, but Great General He Jin is a big shot who can control the universe, why would he be afraid of me?"
Cao Cao laughed and asked, "Brother Chen, you don't even know yourself?" Then, he said seriously, "Although Brother Chen's position is not too high, his subordinates are like a tiger, and his warriors like a bear. Everyone has seen this with their own eyes! Although the general looks down on Brother Chen on the surface, but I am very clear that the general is actually very afraid of Brother Chen! " Chen Lang laughed: "Great General, you are overthinking it! Since the Great General does not like me entering the capital, then I will not enter the capital! " Cao Cao Cao looked at Chen Lang deeply, then laughed: "Brother Chen is truly unfathomable!"
Chen Lang laughed and said: "Since Brother Meng De is here, let's have a good drink! Just leave the rest of the bullshit alone! "
Cao Cao also laughed and said, "That's exactly what I want!"
Chen Lang called for wine and started drinking with Cao Cao Cao.
Since He Jin raised the young emperor, his steps were as fierce as a dragon and as fierce as a tiger's. However, He Jin was still worried about one thing, and that was the eunuchs group who still held power. Hence, He Jin always wanted to get rid of the eunuchs group in order to have complete control over the imperial government. But He Jin did not dare to act rashly, because the Eunuch Group still held a strong army. Therefore, He Jin came up with a method to gather all the army in the city into the capital. Cao Cao and others firmly objected to this. They believed that with the arrival of the vassal army, the matter could not be settled. However, He Jin did not listen to her advice and continued his journey. Not long after, orders were sent out to enlist troops in various parts of the empire.
A large group of people kneeled in front of the black mass on the ground, and Zhang Fu said in a sorrowful voice: "Esteemed Empress Dowager, I am waiting as a slave in the palace, there are many things that I did not have any choice for, and do not dare to go against my will, but I do not want General He to bear a grudge and refuse to forgive me. You have to put me to death! I hope that Esteemed Empress Dowager can help me beg for mercy, and save this lowly life, so that I can help you! " All the eunuchs kowtowed one after another, begging for mercy. Their appearances were extremely sorrowful.
Empress Dowager He mused to herself, I'm in the ninth layer. Without the assistance of these eunuchs, how can I control the imperial government? In fact, the siblings were born of low status. If it weren't for the help of these officials, how could they have achieved their current status?
Thinking up to here, Empress Dowager He made a decision. "I can let the great general let bygones be bygones, but you all mustn't forget my kindness from now on." The eunuchs were overjoyed as they kowtowed one after another, swearing an oath to the heavens. Empress Dowager He was extremely satisfied. "I'll invite the great general to attend the banquet tomorrow night. When you personally apologize to him, he'll definitely forgive you." The eunuchs kowtowed again to express their gratitude.
Empress Dowager He sent a trusted aide out of the palace, came to Great General's Estate, and presented a letter personally written by Empress Dowager He to He Jin.
After He Jin read the letter, he laughed heartily, waved the letter and said to the people around him proudly: "Those eunuchs are afraid! They ran to Her Majesty to beg for mercy, and Her Majesty told me to come to the palace tomorrow night to accept the pleadings of the eunuchs in order to resolve the dispute between the two parties! "
Chen Lin frowned: "I'm afraid there's a trick to it?"
He Miao said snappily: "Chen Lin, you're too cowardly! This was a letter personally written by the Esteemed Empress Dowager. Those eunuchs must have been scared out of their wits when they heard the news that the general had recruited soldiers into the capital. They were anxious to get a pardon from the general in order to survive! " He Jin laughed and nodded, "He Miao is right! That's right! "
Yuan Shao said: "The great general must go, and must bring troops."
He Jin laughed: "You guys don't have to be so timid! "Fine, I will bring my army and horses with me!"
On the evening of the second day, He Jin was escorted by Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and a few thousand soldiers to the entrance of the imperial palace. Yuan Shao walked up and knocked on the door, causing the Academy Officer to exclaim loudly, "You are not allowed to enter the important grounds of the Imperial Palace! Esteemed Empress Dowager only invited two Great Generals, and invited two Great Generals to come in! "
Yuan Shao said to him: "I'm afraid there's a trick!"
He Jin laughed: "How can you be cheating, don't worry about it." Soon after, she and He Miao both entered the palace, and the moment the two entered, the door closed immediately.
Yuan Shao frowned and said to Cao Cao, "I feel that something is amiss!" Cao Cao frowned, "Everyone should be prepared!" Yuan Shao immediately passed down the order.
He Jin and He Miao entered the palace together and headed straight for Empress Dowager He. Before they reached Empress Dowager He's palace, however, countless soldiers suddenly jumped out from the flowers, plants, and trees around them and surrounded the two.
He Jin suddenly saw the scene and was shocked. He anxiously pulled out his sword and asked: "Who are you? "What do you want?"
Zhang Lie and the others came out from the crowd, he pointed his halberd at He Jin and cursed: "You little brat, you were originally just a butcher who killed pigs and sold meat, if not for our family's help, how could you be as rich as you are today! Yet you do not want to repay us, and instead want to harm us all. You truly have a heart of a wolf and a heart of a dog that deserves to die! "
He Jin was so scared that his face turned pale and he ran for his life. Unexpectedly, a sword came from the side and hit him squarely in the back. With a blood-curdling scream, he fell to the ground.
He Jin struggled to turn his body over. To his surprise, it was her own brother, He Miao, holding onto a long sword that was dripping with blood and standing not far away. He Jin stared at He Miao in disbelief, pointing at him, he questioned him: "You, why are you …?" He Miao laughed sinisterly, and said: I'm sorry big brother, Elder Eunuch Zhang has promised me that as long as you die, I will become the Great General Fu Cavalry! He Jin was extremely angry, pointing at him, he scolded: "You, you heartless thing!"
"Kill him!"
All the soldiers immediately went forward, with their swords and spears, they sliced He Jin into mincemeat in an instant. The butcher who fought his way into the meat market ended up with the same fate as the pigs and sheep. Perhaps this was retribution.
Yuan Shao and the rest were anxious when they saw He Jin not coming out even after going in for a long time.
Just at this time, Zhang Fu appeared at the palace gate, recognized He Jin's head, and shouted loudly: "He Jin's rebellion has been killed! This matter has nothing to do with you, so don't pursue it. In the eyes of Zhang Gong and the rest, He Jin was the leader of the group of dragons, so as long as he died, they could take control of the situation.
Yuan Shao and the others were shocked to see He Jin's bloody head. Yuan Shao flew into a rage, and bellowed: "Eunuch, you dared to publicly murder an important official of the imperial court, you are guilty of an unspeakable crime! Everyone listen up, follow me in, kill the eunuchs, and save the king! " Everyone was furious as they loudly agreed. After which, the crowd began their assault on the palace gates, and the sound of their battle erupted. Cao Cao wanted to stop it, but how could he?
All of a sudden, a fire broke out near the locked door, and the palace eunuchs and guards fell into chaos. Yuan Shao and the rest took the opportunity to break into the palace and enter the Forbidden Palace. The palace guards surrendered, and the eunuchs scattered in all directions. The soldiers and horses that had slaughtered their way into the palace madly slaughtered the eunuchs. As soon as they saw a person dressed in the uniform of a eunuch, they would start hacking and screaming. Blood immediately dyed the imperial garden red.
Yuan Shao and the others arrived at the front of the emperor's chambers, but there was no trace of the emperor. Through an interrogation of a palace maid in the palace, the crowd found out that the Emperor and Prince Liu were kidnapped by Zhang Yang and disappeared without a trace. Cao Cao said, "If the eunuchs capture the Emperor, they will definitely leave the palace. Quickly chase them or else the consequences will be unimaginable!" Everyone felt that the situation was serious and quickly led their troops out of the palace. Some of them were searching the city, while others were chasing after them. In the middle of the night, the entire Luoyang was in chaos.
At the same time, Chen Lang who was in fir pool suddenly received an urgent report from the west. It said that the Western Lion Thorny Shi Donghuo had personally led 400,000 West Cold Army s here, and was only 20 li away from fir pool.
When Chen Lang heard the news, he could not help but frown. He gathered all the generals and gave the order: "Pass down the order, the entire army is to move out!"
The military camp was in an uproar. Twenty thousand Ying Yang Army s gathered quickly, and under Chen Lang's lead, they left the military camp straight towards the west. An hour later, Chen Lang led the Ying Yang Army to the mountain ridge to the west of the fir pool.
Not long after, under the moonlight, countless troops could be seen coming from the west!
Chen Lang looked at Chunyu Qiong, who immediately nocked her bow and released an arrow towards the front. The arrows whistled as they landed in front of the army. The army immediately stopped as the surging waves temporarily stopped. A bloodthirsty and manic atmosphere permeated the air.
Chen Lang shouted loudly: "Ying Yang Army Zuo Yu and Lin Wei are here, quickly report who it is!"
Someone from the army shouted with a thick Western Cold accent, "Western Cold Thorny Lord Shi DongZhuo has come here to serve the king with four hundred thousand West Cold Army s under his general! Hurry and get out of the way! "
Chen Lang raised his voice: "Since the great general has not given me the order, I will have to ask the great general for permission first!"
Another voice from the opposing army said, "Cut the crap. I am here for the summons. If you don't move away, we will attack you! " His tone was haughty and impatient.
Chen Lang laughed coldly: "Dong Zhuo, it really is you. If you want to rebel, then do it! "
"Humph!" "Kill them all!"
The tens of thousands of Xiliang Steel Cavalry at the front immediately activated, and rushed towards the Ying Yang Army's defensive line! In a short period of time, the iron hooves roared and the smoke and dust swirled in the air. It was as if countless bloodthirsty wild beasts had charged straight at them, causing the earth to tremble! Chen Lang raised his right hand and waved it forward, thousands of infantry s released arrows at the same time. However, after the rain of arrows passed, not only did the Xiliang Steel Cavalry's charging wave not weaken in the slightest, it became even wilder! Humans roared, horses hissed, and murderous intent soared into the sky, unstoppable! As expected of the invincible Xiliang Steel Cavalry who could shake the world!
