Compared to Lu Zhi, Min Gong was just a lowly official. If he could save the Son of Heaven from danger today, it would be the road to Min Gong's fame. It could be said that Min Gong's happiness today would leave a name for Qing Shi, and with the help of the emperor, he would be bestowed the title of marquis, and the Duke of Qin will be the protector of the king.
"Kill …" Min Gong took the lead and rushed forward, slashing towards Eunuch who was in front of him. More than a dozen soldiers rushed up behind him and started to attack him. But they were afraid, too, and none of them went in front of Müngong.
Lu Zhi turned his head and ignored everything else. He would not do such a thing himself, but this did not mean that he did not allow others to do it. This was the so-called scholar, the great scholar. What kind of strong and resolute character with great integrity, always harboring the desire to help the world. To put it bluntly, it was nothing more than a hypocritical show.
After Min Gong raised his blade and killed someone, Zhang Rou looked at Lu Zhi and did not say a word. Some of the thirty eunuchs were brave and brave, and they held their swords high as they fought with Min Gong and the other eunuchs. However, they were no match for the soldiers. They continued to fall in front of Zhang Jean.
Although Zhang Rong used Young Emperor Liu Bian to threaten everyone, in his heart, he was not willing to hurt Hanling Emperor's own son. Seeing that the Eunuch was getting smaller and smaller, Zhang Rong sighed and pushed Young Emperor Liu Bian away. He turned around and said to Song Dian and the rest, "Let's go!"
Min Gong rushed forward and snatched the Young Emperor Liu Bian away, hugging him tightly. This was his future. He would never let go. He pointed the long knife in his hands forward and shouted to the soldiers: "Catch up, kill all these adulterous castration s."
"Killing adulterous castration is a small matter, but protecting the Son of Heaven is a big one. The other cavalrymen will be coming over very soon, quickly take the Son of Heaven and the King Chen Liu away first. " The other riders had dismounted and were searching for a boat. If they had to cross the river, they wouldn't be able to make it in time. Furthermore, Zhang Nan had already released the Son of Heaven, Lu Zhi did not want to kill everyone.
North bank of the Yellow River, Hussar General Yang Lin stood on his horse, frowning, his eyes staring at the south side of the Yellow River. Although it was far away, Yang Lin still held onto the telescope that Zhou Yi and Zhou Quan had just produced.
"Liu Pi, Gong Dou, follow the river and search for ferries. Prepare to cross the river." Although he was extremely unwilling, he had to act like a loyal king. He couldn't let others criticize him. This was politics. In the government, you had to bury your thoughts deep within your heart, and the words that came out of your mouth were things that people loved to hear about.
Yang Lin who was familiar with history knew clearly that chaos in the Luoyang had broken out in the past few days, but he still maintained his position in the army. Even when he was appointed as County Commander, he did not take a step further into the river. He let history develop as it should. He did not want to flutter the wings of a butterfly just because of his arrival.
However, Zhang Banxian's letter had disrupted his plans, so he had no choice but to bring Liu Pi and Gong Dou to the river, and even pretended to be extremely anxious. Even Liu Pi and Gong Dou were lamenting in their hearts how loyal the hussar general was to the Emperor. In order to protect the Emperor, they even forgot to eat.
Yang Lin was now at the crossroads of history, and he faced an extremely difficult choice.
Those familiar with the history all knew that when and the Luoyang mutineers entered the capital, it was only then that the chaos in the three nations officially started, and the rebellion that happened before was just a prelude to the chaos. In the four hundred years since then, the Chinese nation has entered the darkest period.
We need to change all this!
He was aware of the history and the development of the situation in the Luoyang. He could have sent troops to the south side of the Yellow River in advance, and Zhang Rong would have sent the Young Emperor to his camp. Even if it was the armies of the Luoyang, he would not put them in his eyes. As long as he gave them a lesson and went south, no one would make an enemy out of him.
But then what?
Could it be that he had to go and support the little Emperor, allowing the Liu's to continue to pass down its legacy, continue to act alarmingly, and harm the people? He was a person who hated and despised the dictatorships. Not to mention for others, even for himself, he would not protect this cannibalistic system.
Since the heavens had chosen him, it meant that the gods approved of his idea. From two thousand years later until now, he had not only brought about a few advanced technologies, but he had also spread the democratic values of the future generation and had striven to realize his democratic ideals.
The feudal imperial system was the darkest, most brutal, most backward, most ignorant, most selfish and corrupt social system in the history of the population. It stifled human nature, hindered progress and seriously hindered the progress and development of the Chinese nation. Only by completely abolishing feudal imperial system can the Chinese nation be truly saved.
To completely shatter the sacred halo that shrouded the emperor's head, Dong Zhuo had to enter the capital and step on the sacred imperial power beneath his feet. The so-called royal talent was nothing more than a puppet in the hands of a powerful expert, or even a pair of underpants, or a piece of cloth to cover up his embarrassment.
"Lord General, within fifteen kilometers, there isn't a single ferry. We only found a few fishing boats." Two hours later, scout ran back from upstream and downstream respectively. However, those fishing boats are really too small. I'm afraid they can only carry one person and one horse at a time. "
"Sigh …" Is this heaven's will? " Yang Lin let out a long sigh to the sky and couldn't help but laugh inside his heart. Maybe this was a warning from the heavens, that the Liu's Empire had come to an end and the feudal emperor system had come to an end. Yang Lin waved his hands at the exorcism and said expressionlessly: "Go and look again, what use are a few fishing boats?"
Min Gong had taken back the Young Emperor Liu Bian and King Chen Liu Liu Xie from the Eunuch, and more than half of his soldiers had died as well. However, he did not even glance at the soldiers, but only held onto the Young Emperor tightly, afraid that his bright future would fly away from his hands.
"Your majesty, let's leave quickly. I'm afraid we will never be able to leave once Yang Lin's army crosses the river." Of course, Lu Zhi understood Min Gong's thoughts, he only bowed to the Emperor before taking his servants and retreating to the side, at the same time urging Young Emperor Liu Bian to quickly leave.
After walking for such a long distance, Young Emperor Liu Bian and King Chen Liu Liu Xie were tired and hungry, and didn't want to go anymore. However, when they saw the mighty Cavalry on the other side of the Yellow River, the two children were also somewhat scared and immediately followed Min Gong into the depths of the Mang Shan.
The sky gradually darkened, and night once again enveloped the Mang Shan. As they were fleeing in panic, the torches were left by the side of the Yellow River and they could only follow the firefly's faint light as they walked towards the south. The childish and naive Young Emperor Liu Bian and King Chen Liu Liu Xie forgot about their fatigue and started to catch up with the firefly.
After walking for who knows how long, they finally met a family in the mountains. It was a pity that this family was too poor. All the food in the family was not enough to feed so many people. The soldiers and servants could only watch as Young Emperor Liu Bian and King Chen Liu scooped up the rice grains, and each of them barely managed to drink a bowl of the porridge.
As they were leaving, they found that the family had a cart. Mingon took some money from his pocket and bought it with the cart. Young Emperor Liu Bian, King Chen Liu Liu Xie, Shang Shu Zhi and Min Gong sat on the carriage, allowing the soldiers to pull them and push them away.
It was not until they reached Losher that they found two horses from a farmer's house. With the Shang Shu Zhi taking charge, and Young Emperor Liu Bian riding one horse alone, King Chen Liu Liu Xie and Min Gong rode the same horse, while Lu Zhi followed behind them while holding onto his spear.
Whether it was Lu Zhi or Min Gong, they were not familiar with the paths in the Mang Shan. Even the servants and soldiers under them did not know how to walk on them, so they could only walk while asking. Gradually, they deviated, and walked to the west side of Luoyang.
Zhang Banxian brought Zhang Liao and Gao Shun and chased them along the mountain road heading north. Along the way, they did not find any traces of Young Emperor Liu Bian or King Chen Liu. By the time they arrived at Little Pingjin, all they could see were corpses and abandoned torches on the ground. At the same time, they also saw cavalry of Youzhou on the north bank of the Yellow River.
As the distance between them was too far, the Zhang Banxian could not hear what the other side of the Yellow River was saying, so she could only carefully examine the corpses on the ground. Neither Young Emperor Liu Bian nor the Chief Eunuch Zhang Jean, Song Dian and Li Yu were discovered.
"The corpses haven't turned stiff yet, which means they haven't been gone for long." Zhang Banxian waved her hands towards Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, and decisively ordered: "Zhang Liao, bring a hundred people to search upstream. Gao Shun, bring a hundred people to search downstream. Whether or not I can find it, I'll be back within an hour. "
Just as Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were about to go out to search, the fishing boats brought by the cavalry of Youzhou had delivered the first batch of cavalrymen across the river. However, the fishing boats were small and few in size. cavalry of Youzhou's crossing of the river was very slow.
Just as cavalry of Youzhou was crossing the river, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun returned to Ping Jin. Zhang Liao returned empty-handed, while Gao Shun found Zhang Jean, Song Dian, Li Yu and the other six eunuchs, and brought them back. It turned out that Zhang Gong and the others did not run far before they were found.
The number of ships collected continued to increase, and the number of cavalry crossing the river also continued to increase. When a squadron of cavalry crossed the river, Yang Lin brought his personal guards over and ordered Liu Pi and Gong Dou to gather the boats. They continued to cross the river and set up camp on the south and north sides of the Yellow River.
Zhang Banxian immediately led Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Zhang Yong, Song Dian, Li Yu and the others to meet Yang Lin. After everyone finished chatting, Yang Lin looked at Zhang Liao and Gao Shun. They were not only martial arts experts, but also calm, calm intelligence, and more about leading the army to war.
Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were also sizing up Yang Lin. Although they had heard of his name before, they were surprised to see him today. They never would have thought that the dignified hussar general would actually be so young, and so quiet, like a scholar.
Seeing Zhang Jean, Song Dian, Li Yu and the rest, Yang Lin was also deeply moved. After so many years of scheming and scheming, he ended up fleeing in the end. If he hadn't arrived in time, he might have jumped into the river and drowned like he had done in history. This could have been considered his repayment for all these years of care and care.
Seeing Yang Lin, Zhang Rong was ecstatic, and once again the desire to seize power ignited in his heart. He told the details of what had happened to Yang Lin in detail, and urgently requested Yang Lin to search for Young Emperor Liu Bian, King Chen Liu Liu Xie, and then return to the Imperial Palace to assist the Emperor.
