Inside and outside Luoyang City, the Western Liang cavalry burned, killed, and looted. It was a tragic scene.
Countless merchants were robbed, and large amounts of rations and supplies were moved west.
In order not to leave any value to the eighteen vassals, Dong Zhuo directly ordered Luoyang to be set on fire.
The capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty was burned to the ground in a merciless fire.
The most innocent ones were the commoners. The capital was burned, and most of them had no choice but to follow the army west on foot.
Some merchants and officials moved to other counties.
Just as Dong Zhuo's army left the city, a thousand-man light cavalry had already bypassed Luoyang and headed south of the river toward Mount Mang Dang.
"Zian, we found a small troop ten miles south.”
While they were resting, Li Dian rode his horse over to report the situation.""The direction is from Luoyang."
This was not strange.
It was impossible for all the officials to be willing to follow Dong Zhuo to move west to Chang 'an. It was normal for some unimportant officials or their relatives to flee.
" Do you have a lot of rations?!"
Cao Yun stood up and asked casually.
Hearing this.
Li Dian was slightly stunned. He thought for a moment and replied,""It doesn't look like many. It should be the wedding procession of a wealthy family…"
"Not much?"
Cao Yun nodded and mounted his horse."Alright, then let's put on a good front and communicate with them as the royal army!”
With that, he led Yue Jin and dozens of cavalry straight to the west.
"Zian's way of doing things is really strange!”
Li Dian looked at Cao Yun, who had disappeared in a flash, and asked Cao Hong in surprise,""Brother Zilian, didn't we dispatch the scouts to conceal our tracks?!”
"Wouldn't we be completely exposed if we were to raise the flag?!”
"Haha, Mancheng doesn't know…"
Cao Hong laughed." The purpose of our trip is to let them know that our lord will save the emperor no matter how difficult it is!"”
Li Dian nodded and revealed a look of realization. Then, he asked,
"Brother Zilian, why does Zian want us to investigate the provisions?!”
"If we have more provisions…"
Cao Hong shrugged and said with an indifferent expression,""Then we are the Western Liang Cavalry.”
Li Dian was speechless.
Le Jin was speechless.
……
"Miss, don't cry. Didn't Master think it through?!”
The little servant girl lay in the carriage and carefully wiped the tears on the bride's face.
" Xiaolan, you don't understand. There's chaos everywhere…"
The 'bride' was elegant and refined. She had a spiritual aura. Her beautiful eyes were tearful and her aura was like an orchid."After this farewell, I don't know when I'll be able to see father again.”
She was the beloved daughter of the Marquis of Gao Yang, Cai Yan. It seemed like she was getting married in Luoyang, but Cai Yong was actually asking her to go around the east of the river and go to Yanzhou to seek refuge with her uncle, Cai Gu.
Cai Yan's red lips opened slightly, wanting to say something but stopped.
He lifted the curtain and looked at the scholar riding a horse in front of him. He felt very strange.
She knew that this person was Jia Fujun's old butler.
However, an old butler had returned to the east of the river with twenty private cavalry escorting him. This made her puzzled.
However…
To Cai Yan, this was not a bad thing.
After all, the eighteen vassals were fighting a fierce battle in Xingyang. There were many refugees and scattered soldiers within a hundred miles. With this small cavalry, the safety factor would be greatly improved.
Cai Yan thought.
Suddenly, they heard a commotion in front of them, followed by a loud shout. The horses in the carriage were startled, and the entire carriage shook.
She opened her eyes and looked over in shock.
It was a small group of mountain bandits that came out of the forest, they were most likely from the tribulation path.
The world was in chaos. In addition to the remnants of the Yellow Turban, there were also countless bandits who occupied the mountains and wreaked havoc.
After a while.
The sounds of fighting and screams rang out.
Cai Yan's face was somewhat pale as he looked over in panic. The combat strength of the cavalrymen following the old butler of the Jia Residence was unexpectedly formidable.
More than a hundred mountain bandits killed twenty private cavalry, but there were no casualties.
This was definitely a well-trained cavalry!
Cai Yan was not the only one who saw this.
"Zian is not an ordinary cavalry!”
At this time, Cao Yun and Le Jin had just arrived with dozens of cavalry. Seeing this scene, Le Jin was secretly shocked.
"Naturally, they are not ordinary cavalry.”
Cao Yun's eyes flashed with an indescribable light as he revealed a smile and said,"Wenqian, let's go over."
"Milord, there's a small group of cavalrymen in front of us with the 'Cao' flag.”
Hearing this.
Jia Xu opened his eyes and looked over. He saw the young general in the lead wearing silver armor and a white robe. He held a five-hook divine flying silver spear and rode a golden thread white dragon steed. He was full of heroic spirit and extremely handsome.
He was secretly shocked. Am I that unlucky?!
When the information reached Luoyang, Jia Xu knew that the person who defeated Lu Bu was Cao Mengde's son. Cao Yun.
His most obvious feature was a peculiar silver spear. Five hooks flying silver spear.
But shouldn't he be leading troops to attack Luoyang?!
Why was he here?
Jia Xu had some doubts in his heart, but he was not too worried. After all, no one could guess his identity.
Cao Cao was one of the 18 vassals, and he supported the Han Dynasty with righteousness. Cai Yong was an old minister of the Han Dynasty, so it was not a big problem.
Jia Xu stepped forward and cupped his hands." Generals, we are the bridal escort team of the High Sun Marquis. We just encountered bandits."”
"Thank you, General, for coming to the rescue.”
Immediately, Jia Xu's gaze descended onto Cao Yun, only to see this young general have a strange smile on his face.
This smile.
Jia Xu could not help but feel a chill down his spine.
"General, our Marquis Gao Yang and Commandant Cao are old acquaintances…"
"Yes, I know."
Cao Yun nodded and said,"In that case, the one in the carriage is Gao Yang Hou's daughter Cai Yan?"!”
Jia Xu was very polite, and he cupped his hands and said,""My family's young miss is Cai Yan."
"Then…"
Cao Yun's eyes suddenly narrowed. He pointed his Five Divine Hooks Silver Spear and said with a smile,""Jia Xu, why did Lord Jia personally send Cai Yan off?!”
In his eyes.
An indescribable glimmer flashed.
Name: Jia Xu
Strength: 26
[Commander: 61]
Intelligence: 102.
Internal Affairs: 99
[Evaluation: Peerless strategist]
When Cao Yun's words fell, Le Jin and the others widened their eyes and looked at Jia Xu in disbelief.
The latter looked left and right with a blank expression, then heaved a sigh of relief and said,"General, you scared us. We thought that the Western Liang cavalry was chasing after us!”
You're not Jia Xu?!"
Cao Yun was amused. He sized up this fellow and saw that his expression changed.
He was stunned at first, then his pupils constricted slightly. He opened his mouth slightly and said in surprise,"Jia Fujun is an important official of Thief Dong, and he must be following Thief Dong at this moment…This lowly one is only a servant of the High Sun Marquis's estate, so General, don't joke around with this lowly one.”
Hearing this.
"That's true."
"Since you're not Jia Xu…" Cao Yun nodded seriously.
"Then I can only kill you."
Jia Xu,"(o) protruding."
Le Jin was speechless.
Cai Yan was speechless.
