At this time, everyone was extremely contemptuous in their hearts. If you guessed it, why didn’t you say it out loud?
Now here's the hindsight.
Yuan Shao completely ignored everyone's reaction and said immediately:
"Immediately inform the guards at Hulao Pass that Dong Zhuo is about to escape."
No one disagrees with this statement, and Yuan Shao is not completely useless.
There is still some wisdom in it.
As soon as he issued the order, the players at the lower level were the most active, and they all spread the word to those above.
"Oh no, General! People down there are saying that the Grand Tutor is going to flee Luoyang."
"Impossible? I won't get lost at Hulao Pass, and the Grand Master won't abandon me."
"General, our army's morale has been shaken. How about you send a letter to confirm?"
Lu Bu knew that this was no small matter. If the Grand Tutor really wanted to run away, they would definitely not be able to hold on.
After Lu Bu sent it out, he waited for a while.
There was no reply from Dong Zhuo.
Now cracks began to appear in Lu Bu's originally firm belief.
Then he couldn't wait any longer. There could be no hesitation on such an important matter.
So he specially sent scouts to check the situation in Luoyang at full speed.
The round trip took several hours.
By the time the scouts returned, the allied forces were already at Hulao Pass.
"General, this is bad. The outer city of Luoyang remains unchanged, but the north gate is open. I went in and saw that no one was there."
“Bang!”
Lu Bu slammed the wine bottle in his hand to the ground and said:
"Do you know where they went?"
"Judging from the wheel tracks, it should be heading towards Chang'an."
"Okay, I understand."
He didn't dare say anything.
But this left Lu Bu with a huge grudge.
I didn't expect that the Grand Tutor who always talked about me would abandon me without even saying hello.
At this time, Lu Bu did not hesitate at all. While ordering his defenders to defend Hulao Pass to the death, he quietly led his personal guards to Chang'an at high speed.
At this point, it was impossible for him to take everyone with him and run away.
At this moment at Hulao Pass, the coalition forces were already eager to attack.
In order to suppress the rolling logs and stones, the coalition forces specially made a batch of simple catapults in the past two months.
So many players are not without things to do. While they are mining stones and cutting wood, they also have to kill monsters to level up.
It can be said that their tasks are very full during this period.
This also gave the coalition forces a large number of catapults and slings.
When the coalition forces attacked, the defenders of Guanshang were stunned.
A torrent of rocks fell from the sky, making it impossible for the defenders to gain a foothold on the wall.
The players below the city were already climbing the ladders quickly.
When the catapult was about to reach the city wall, it stopped.
The players climbed up the city wall, and the soldiers defending the city rushed out, and they collided with each other in an instant.
At this time, the defenders' morale was obviously gone.
Because they found that not only General Lu was missing, but also the other generals were missing.
"Run! The general is gone."
"Kill, kill them all."
The morale difference between the two sides can be easily judged through the shouts on the battlefield.
The allied forces were in high spirits and drove the defenders all the way down Hulao Pass.
The game is over!
At this time, the defending army had been completely defeated.
After passing Hulao Pass, the princes were still celebrating.
But Sun Jian could no longer sit still.
Without waiting for others, he ran towards Luoyang with his personal guards.
At this time he may have already known some important information.
After a brief celebration, the bosses felt a pang of worry when they heard that Sun Jian was gone.
They also hurriedly rushed towards Luoyang with their personal guards, leaving the players looking at each other in bewilderment.
At this time, only Cao Cao and Liu Bei were left.
"Xuan De, why don't you go to Luoyang and try your luck?"
"Hahaha, some things are destined. If they are not yours, you can't force them. So why don't you go, Meng De?"
"Just like you, I don't want to take that chance. Even if I get the Imperial Seal, what's the point?"
It turned out that the two also knew that the imperial seal would be lost in the palace, but they did not believe that even if they got the seal, it would change anything.
"Hahaha, great minds think alike. So what are you going to do next?" Liu Bei asked.
He initiated this alliance, so of course he needs to take some responsibility. He said:
"Now that Dong Zhuo has escaped, we must give him a good beating. What about you?"
Liu Bei shook his head and said:
"Lü Bu is still alive, so we can't do anything to Dong Zhuo. I plan to go to Luoyang first to see what everyone is doing. Why don't you join us?"
Cao Cao was a little angry at this time, and left with a wave of his sleeves:
"If we do not share the same ideals, we cannot work together."
Liu Bei saw that Cao Cao had also left, and with so many players left behind, he was the only one left to command.
He then slowly led a large number of players towards Luoyang.
At this time, all the big guys were cursing Sun Jian in their hearts, saying that this guy was too cunning.
He disappeared without a word.
Fengyun followed these big guys all the way, but he was not looking for the jade seal.
Although he was also interested in the imperial seal, that thing was essential for national war.
In fact, to put it bluntly, it has little impact on individuals, but it affects the country's destiny.
As long as the imperial seal does not flow abroad, it doesn't matter who has it.
But it does have its advantages. It is a symbol of status and can also be used to launch a national war against a certain country.
If this falls into the hands of warmongers, we will have to fight national wars every day.
National war is both a good thing and a bad thing.
Winning is a good thing, losing is a bad thing.
But making too many enemies is not a good thing.
But he doesn't have to worry for the time being. According to the current trend, it will definitely be in the hands of Sun Jian, and then Yuan Shu. In the end, he doesn't know who will get it.
Even after all the big guys tried their best to catch up, they were still not as fast as Sun Jian.
When they arrived in Luoyang City, there was no sign of Sun Jian.
It is conceivable that he went into the city.
But they could only be stopped outside the city by the high city walls.
They habitually came to the outer city, which was Fengyun's territory, and Fengyun would never let them in.
Now the anxious people started cursing outside the city.
"Open the gate for us quickly. We are the coalition forces, and we are here to attack Dong Zhuo. We want to enter the city."
But the guards on the city wall did not give them any face at all.
"Dong Zhuo has already fled to Chang'an. You should chase him quickly. What are you doing in Luoyang?"
"We must protect Luoyang and prevent it from being set on fire."
"Don't worry, Luoyang is doing well now. No one dares to play with fire in Luoyang."
They were also puzzled at this time. Wasn't it rumored that Dong Zhuo would eventually burn Luoyang? How come it was still intact?
People are now beginning to question these rumors.
Just standing here is not a solution.
At this time, Fengyun, who was among them, spoke.
