Chapter 178
The next day, at dawn, the sky was still shrouded in a few shades of night blue. Zhang Liao and Gongsun Xu led elite light cavalry, like two lightning bolts that broke through the tranquility of the valley. They cleverly deployed their troops and successfully blocked the throat of Dong Zhuo's escape.
In the valley, drums beat, swords clashed, the two armies clashed, sparks flew, and every collision was like thunder. However, the powerful Lu Bu, Hua Xiong, Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji and others under Dong Zhuo had all died at the hands of Liu Yao.
On Dong Zhuo's side, the generals were dying and morale was low. Now he had almost no generals who could fight against Zhang Babai.
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate and the outcome was unpredictable, a large group of people and horses suddenly appeared in the sky, and Liu Yao personally led the cavalry to arrive.
"Haha, my dear brother Ziyi, time flies. It's really unpredictable that we two brothers meet again after such a long separation. It makes people feel a lot of emotion!"
Dong Zhuo rode slowly to the front of the Xiliang army. His voice was like a bell, full of enthusiasm, as if he wanted to resolve the tense situation with the old friendship.
However, Liu Yao sat on his horse, his face was cold, his voice was like ice, and he refuted mercilessly:
"Oh, Dong Zhuo, you burned Luoyang! Massacred hundreds of officials, and now even His Majesty is not spared. How can you have the face to talk about friendship with me? The past military exploits are just a fig leaf for your ambitions!"
"Considering that you have made some contributions to the country in the past, I, Liu Yao, will give you a chance to survive today. If you end your life by yourself, you can still retain some dignity!"
Liu Yao never thought of giving Dong Zhuo a chance. If he lets this kind of person go, he will miss him.
Dong Zhuo felt mixed emotions when he heard this. He knew that the situation was hopeless and there was no way to turn things around. He looked up to the sky and howled, his voice full of regret and unwillingness.
"Alas! I regret not accepting Li Ru's good advice, which led to the disaster today. God doesn't bless me, it's fate!"
"Hehe, Dong Zhuo! If you lose, you lose! The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit! You may suffer less if you end it quickly!!"
Gongsun Zan held Ma Shuo and kept shouting:
Liu Bei's eyes were red, and he wished he could eat Dong Zhuo alive in the next second.
Dong Zhuo's face suddenly became gloomy, and an uncontrollable tyranny flashed in his eyes, as if a sleeping beast was about to break free.
"Hmph, now that it has come to this, how can I, Dong Zhuo, sit in a city of sorrow and let others slaughter me! Good men of Xiliang, follow me, break through these heavy sieges and fight our way out!"
His voice was deep and powerful, echoing on the battlefield like thunder, instantly igniting the fighting spirit of the Xiliang army.
With Dong Zhuo's order, the two armies collided with each other like waves blown up by the wind, and launched a thrilling life-and-death contest. The flashes of swords and shadows intertwined, and the shouts of killing shook the earth.
The three brothers Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei were like three tigers coming down the mountain. Their figures shuttled across the battlefield like lightning, and every time they swung their weapons, the figures of the enemies fell.
Seeing this, Dong Zhuo was horrified. He knew that these three people were not trivial. If they could not be eliminated as soon as possible, they would become a big trouble. So, he personally led the army to charge several times, trying to break through the siege, but each time he was ruthlessly repelled by the elite cavalry led by Gongsun Xu and Zhang Liao.
"Liu Yao! Can't you really spare my life?"
The spear in his hand turned into silver lightning, cutting through the sky, accurately picking up the last guard beside Dong Zhuo, blood splashing, staining the battle robe red.
Liu Yao ignored him, but kept telling him with his actions! You must die today!
The fight lasted until noon, and the corpses of the Xiliang army piled up like a mountain. Their generals, either died on the battlefield or returned to the underworld, and none of them were spared, and the rest of them all chose to surrender without exception.
Dong Zhuo, the once powerful hero, was now like a stray dog, firmly bound by the warriors under Liu Yao, and no longer had the former prestige. Li Ru and his followers also had the same fate and were captured one by one.
"Come here! Keep these rebels under close watch, no mistakes!! I will take Dong Zhuo back to Luoyang! In front of the whole world! Publicly try Dong Zhuo!"
Liu Yao waved his hand, and his men put an unconscious fat pig on the ground into the prison car.
...
Just as the coalition army was on its way back to Luoyang.
Si Tu Wang Yun, the pillar of the court, brought a group of important officials to hold a banquet, and sincerely invited Liu Yao, Cao Cao and other heroes to celebrate the execution of Dong Zhuo and the collapse of the Xiliang rebels.
After the ceremony, the hall was filled with laughter, and the guests took their seats in order. The surroundings were surrounded by the elegant fragrance of flowers and the aroma of wine. The maids shuttled lightly between the tables to pour wine for everyone.
At this time, Si Tu Wang Yun smiled warmly and said, "A Xiu, come on, give me the champion marquis! Hold the cup yourself!"
""Yes..."
The one who responded was a singer in a scarlet dress. She walked lightly, like a fairy walking on clouds, and walked to Liu Yao's side.
She opened her red lips lightly, her voice was as gentle as a stream, and she bowed, showing her graceful figure. Then, her white jade-like hands gently lifted the exquisite copper pot, and the fine wine in the pot was slowly poured into the cup like a thread.
Liu Yao's eyes were deeply fixed on the face that eclipsed everything in the world. Suddenly, a storm surged in his heart.
Wait... Si Tu Wang Yun... Ah Xiu? Could it be Ren Xiu? ... Is it Diao Chan! ?
Liu Yao's eyes widened immediately.
No wonder she is so beautiful, with a willow-like waist, unparalleled in the world.
God is playing tricks on people.
Tsk tsk tsk, what a pity, Lu Bu was originally lucky enough to see her after arriving in Chang'an, but now, Diao Chan is still waiting to be married, and has no master.
"Marquis Guanjun, please drink this wine. "
As the crisp voice fell, a pair of white jade hands handed the wine glass to Liu Yao's lips.
Diao Chan also looked at Liu Yao carefully and found that he was different from the rumors in the outside world. They all said that he was a butcher who killed people like crazy, and that he had a green face and fangs and would eat a person in one meal.
But this man was born with sword eyebrows and star eyes, and looked like a jade-faced scholar. If he was in Bingzhou, he would probably be a famous handsome man in the surrounding area.
How could I not drink when a beautiful woman persuaded me to drink?
Then in my previous life, I went to Shang K either This kind of service?
This made Cao Cao on the side envious, his saliva almost flowed all over the floor, and he wished that Liu Yao could be kicked out and he could sit there.
The look in their eyes was almost like pulling a thread.
You, Liu Yao, you are fairer than me, taller than me, better in martial arts, more in military exploits, and richer than me, what else do you have? What do you have left?
Cao Cao looked at Liu Yao, and suddenly he was a little unhappy and drank alone.
