The Yellow Turban soldiers came in force and left calmly. After getting the spoils, they abandoned the Luoyang City, which they had captured at all costs, without stopping.
By the time the imperial army arrived in Luoyang, the Yellow Turbans had already left and retreated to Hulao Pass.
…
The divine envoy Lin Han led his troops into Luoyang, beheading the dragon head from the armrests of the dragon throne. The imperial palace was in shambles. All the valuables that the civil and military officials could not take with them when they hurriedly left Luoyang were completely plundered.
This move made Emperor Ling of Han furious, and he issued an edict to the entire country.
"System prompt: All players, please note that the Yellow Turban Divine Envoy Lin Han led his troops to attack Luoyang and plunder the imperial palace, angering Emperor Ling of Han. Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, has issued an edict that anyone who beheads the Yellow Turban Divine Envoy Lin Han will be rewarded with a 10,000-yuan reward and be granted a higher rank."
"System prompt: All players, please note that the Yellow Turbans' Supreme Envoy Lin Han has led his troops into Luoyang. Emperor Ling of Han is furious. Anyone who kills the Supreme Envoy Lin Han will receive 50 million points of military merit."
This news made countless players eager to take action, and they wanted to pull Lin Han out and kill him.
Even players in the Yellow Turban faction were eager to try their luck, as chopping off Lin Han's head would earn them a title of nobility. Unfortunately, ordinary players had no way of knowing Lin Han's whereabouts, let alone getting close to him.
At this moment, Lin Han, who was wanted by Emperor Ling of Han, had just returned to Hulao Pass.
There were hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban main forces guarding Hulao Pass. They were powerful and imposing, and it was impossible to break through.
Unless Hulao Pass is breached, the Eastern Han army would not dare to enter Jizhou at will, as they might be surrounded and their food supplies cut off at any time, cutting off their retreat.
Returning to the camp to take charge of the troops, Lin Han arranged for the troops within Hulao Pass to withdraw from Sili in an orderly manner and return to Guangzong and Julu. At the same time, he ordered Zhang Sheng to lead the Bloodthirsty White Cavalry to escort all the gold, silver, treasures, blueprints, techniques, equipment, magic weapons, and other spoils seized in Luoyang to Youzhou.
The Yellow Turban camp is bound to be defeated. These treasures found in the secret vaults of eunuchs and relatives of the emperor are not safe in Guangzong and Julu.
After rewarding the three armies, Lin Han gave all the remaining treasures to Zhang Sheng to send to the Great Xia Kingdom, which was the real safe place.
…
The court's counterattack was equally crazy.
Luoyang City was broken, and Emperor Ling of Han was furious. Many military generals of the court, as well as provincial governors, prefects and generals of various states, led their troops to Hulao Pass and launched a fierce attack.
There were more than ten major battles and countless smaller ones, and Hulao Pass became another fierce battlefield.
Lin Han held Hulao Pass for more than a month, allowing the troops to retreat in an orderly manner and gaining many military merits.
Only by guarding Hulao Pass did Lin Han realize the terrifying nature of Hulao Pass’s city defenses.
Fortunately, He Miao, who was guarding Hulao Pass at the time, was incompetent, otherwise it would be difficult to capture Hulao Pass even if he had more troops.
After the battle of Luoyang, Lin Han's military merits reached a terrifying 200 million. Now his military merits are as high as 220 million. He is now looking forward to the opening of the military merit mall so that he can make large purchases at that time.
"Reporting to the Divine Envoy, a letter has arrived from Guangzong."
A scout, carrying an urgent message, was sent to Lin Han.
Letters from Zhang Jue.
