N-A-A Chapter 183
Chapter 183
The sun was shining brightly. Outside the big tent, the cold wind carried a bit of murderous atmosphere. Liu Yao stood tall, holding a human head that was still dripping with blood in his hand. He slowly walked out of the shadow of the military tent. His cold eyes seemed to penetrate the night and shoot directly into the darkest part of people's hearts.
"Jia Xu, this thief dared to secretly plot against my life!" His voice was low and powerful. Every word was like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of the soldiers around him, stirring up waves.
"Now, the evil deeds are over. Here is his head to show everyone!" After saying that, he waved it gently, and the head drew a bloody arc in the air, and finally fell to the ground, splashing a circle of shocking red.
"Clean up quickly and bury the body of this thief. Don't let the filthy land tarnish the morale of our army!" Liu Yao's tone was both unquestionable majesty and revealed a trace of heartache for the indistinguishability of loyalty and treachery.
"Yes!" Dian Wei responded like thunder. His burly body shook violently, and then he turned around, his eyes were like torches, and he quickly dispatched several elite soldiers to enter the military tent and carry the headless body away from the scene.
At the same time, the other soldiers also took action. They either dismantled the military tent or sorted out their luggage. Although their movements were fast, they were well-organized.
The group continued to set off towards Luoyang.
...
At night, when everyone began to prepare for rest.
Outside the tent, in a dark corner deeply embraced by the night, Wang Yue's figure quietly left the dimly lit military camp side by side with a mysterious man wrapped in a black robe.
They jumped on the horse's back, like two ghosts, and under the cover of the moonlight, they galloped towards the direction of Bingzhou, leaving a string of horse hoof sounds echoing in the open wilderness.
At the same time, Gongsun Zan, Cao Cao and Wang Yun, the three of them, were all shocked when they heard that Liu Yao had been assassinated, and they all led their confidants to ask for details.
Gongsun Zan, with a worried look on his face, almost rushed to Liu Yao, his tone full of concern and urgency.
"Zi Yi, I heard that you were unfortunately assassinated by Jia Xu during the interrogation? Were you injured?"
Liu Yao's eyes were firm, and his tone revealed an unquestionable power.
"That's right, Jia Xu was cunning and tried to escape the net by plotting secretly, but he failed in the end. Although I was frightened, I killed him personally to eliminate future troubles."
Hearing this, Cao Cao looked at Liu Yao carefully, and a trace of subtle doubt flashed in his eyes.
"Brother Ziyi, your trip was extremely dangerous, but you were able to turn danger into safety. You are truly a role model for our generation."
"But why did you suddenly interrogate Jia Xu?"
Liu Yao's words were light but contained a profound meaning that could not be ignored. He slowly said,
"I always have a lingering doubt in my heart. There seems to be an unknown undercurrent behind the death of His Majesty. I asked my men to investigate and found Jia Xu."
"Just now, I have ordered Jia Xu to be escorted here, intending to let him use his pen and ink to expose Dong Zhuo's venomous heart. How he gradually eroded the life of the emperor. "
"I never expected that he would not repent as I wished, but took a risk in desperation and tried to assassinate me to gain a chance of survival."
"He knew that he would have no chance of survival if he returned to Luoyang, so he wanted to hold me hostage to find a way out."
"But he underestimated my martial arts and was killed by me in the end."
Wang Yun's expression changed suddenly when he heard this, and he asked impatiently: "General Liu, did you get some inside information from that person?"
Liu Yao nodded slowly.
"It has been found that although Dong Zhuo did not personally harm your majesty, his crimes are closely linked to him and are difficult to be separated from."
"Your majesty has been running around day and night recently, and he is exhausted physically and mentally, like a candle in the wind. When that tragic scene came into view - the whole court of civil and military officials suffered an unexpected disaster, and all officials were beheaded in front of him, this scene was like a bolt from the blue, which severely crushed your majesty's already fragile mind. Under the endless fear and grief, your majesty finally couldn't hold on, exhausted his heart and died with hatred."
As soon as these words came out, everyone around showed a complex expression, with shock, indignation, and unconcealed sorrow. The death of the emperor was such an unexpected tragedy, which made people sigh and made everyone present hate Dong Zhuo a little more.
"Alas, the late emperor was young, but he suffered disasters repeatedly! Dong Zhuo is really hateful! I really want to cut him into pieces immediately! "
Wang Yun lowered his head, his face was livid, and his eyes were constantly flashing with anger.
Liu Yao waved his hand aside.
"Okay, everyone, the late emperor has passed away. I will arrive in Luoyang tomorrow. After we have judged Dong Zhuo, we will see the late emperor off."
Gongsun Zan and others all nodded, and everyoneThey all turned around and left the military tent, going back to rest.
…
At noon the next day, the sun shone dappled on the ruins of Luoyang City, adding a bit of historical heaviness and desolation to this ancient capital that had experienced vicissitudes.
Liu Yao and his party, dusty, returned to this land that had been baptized by war again.
Yuan Shao and others had already led the mighty coalition army and lined up outside the city, waiting with smiles of both admiration and expectation on their faces, as if they were welcoming a triumphant god of war.
"Haha, leader Liu, you are really a hero of the time, a young talent, amazing! This battle not only wiped out the arrogance of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry in one fell swoop, but also captured all the remnants of Dong Zhuo who had brought disaster to the country and the people. Your achievements are unparalleled and admirable!"
Yuan Shao's voice was loud and enthusiastic, and every word revealed his sincere admiration for Liu Yao.
Yuan Shao entertained Liu Yao and others very warmly.
Of course, when someone is happy, someone else is sad. The more Liu Yao is in the limelight, the more jealous people become.
Yuan Shu stood on one side, his face was so gloomy that it seemed like he could squeeze water out of it. He secretly spat in his heart, full of disdain and jealousy
Bah! What the hell, isn't it just relying on the large number of troops under his command?
If I, Yuan Gonglu, want to hunt them down, I only need half of Liu Yao's troops to kill Lu Bu and capture Dong Zhuo.
Liu Yao looked at the people in front of him.
"Everyone, this time I will bring Dong Zhuo back to Luoyang to publicly try him!"
Upon hearing the news, General Yuan Shao stepped forward quickly, his eyes flashing with determination and determination.
"The leader is wise. We have already made preparations. The trial site is solemn and dignified. We are just waiting for the traitor Dong Zhuo and his followers to enter the execution ground and accept the judgment of the world."
"Okay! Take all of Dong Zhuo's followers to the execution ground!"
"Invite all the people in Luoyang, regardless of age or status, to go and watch the execution and witness this righteous act together!"
At Liu Yao's order, all the coalition forces began to get busy.
