Chapter 18 Dong Zhuo’s Death

 Lu Bu did not hesitate too much this time and quickly took over the imperial edict from Wang Yun.

He learned this skill and fought against the Huns outside the Great Wall, not just to make achievements and gain the title of general.

A chariot general is enough to make him forget about Dong Zhuo.

Even three-year-old children understand that what they get is their own.

The imperial edict sent by Wang Yun was real and not something Dong Zhuo had promised in vain.

Even the official position Dong Zhuo promised at the beginning was not as good as that of a chariot and cavalry general.

The alliance will be complete only if Lu Bu is recruited and Dong Zhuo is killed.

Dong Zhuo, who was thirty miles away in his stable, received the news from the eunuch that day.

Dong Zhuo was naturally very happy when Wang Yun suddenly entered the palace and asked the emperor to abdicate the throne.

I feel that I have truly conquered Wang Yun.

Without any hint from him, Wang Yun took the initiative to plan for him.

Another half month later, Wang Yun entered the palace almost every day, and every time in front of the eunuchs, he begged Liu Xie to give the throne to Dong Zhuo.

Half a month later, Wang Yun felt that the time was ripe.

Although he did not go to Yiwu during these days, Dong Zhuo sent many rewards.

Obviously Dong Zhuo knew what he was doing.

On this day, Wang Yun entered the palace again.

This time, when he came out, he carried two imperial edicts with him.

One is Liu Xie's abdication edict, and the other is a secret edict to kill Dong's thieves.

Wang Yun took the imperial edict of abdication and hurried to Xiwu to ask for an audience with Dong Zhuo.

On the other side, Wang Ding handed over the secret edict to Lu Bu.

At the same time, Zhang Liao sent Gao Shun to the palace, and at the same time, Zhang Liao replaced a group of the imperial troops who maintained the security of the palace.

Everything is bypassing Dong Min, and he, the guard, is still being deceived.

Dong Zhuo's eyes and ears in the palace failed to come out.

Even if there were some who escaped quietly, they were all captured by Wang Ding's people.

Although Dong Zhuo is no longer very eager for the throne, but now faced with the pie falling from the sky, he still can't help but take a bite.

Liu Xie was about to give up the throne to him, wouldn't Dong Zhuo still dare to accept it?

As an old man, it is still very good to be able to legitimately be an emperor. At least in future history books, Dong Zhuo can also be included in the emperor's biography.

Dong Zhuo did not go crazy with joy, he still sent someone to call Lu Bu to the camp.

He also put on the iron armor, and then put on his imperial robes.

There were also a thousand soldiers. Dong Zhuo was sitting on the carriage, and Lu Bu was riding a red rabbit horse, holding a Fangtian Huaji, following beside them.

Wang Ding was waiting at the city gate. The commanders of the garrison at the city gate had been beheaded by Wang Ding this morning.

Now the three thousand city gate troops are all under Wang Ding's control.

Dong Zhuo hadn't noticed anything unusual yet. After entering Chang'an City, he went directly to the palace city.

Among the Forbidden Army, Dong Min has been killed by Zhang Liao. At this moment, all the guards around the palace have been replaced by Zhang Liao's men.

Dong Zhuo walked forward without encountering any accidents.

On the Fengchan platform, Li Su was already standing beside him, but he was brought here by Lu Bu.

However, Li Su, like Lu Bu, had long been dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo.

He came to Chang'an with Dong Zhuo, but he was quickly marginalized by Dong Zhuo. Others were promoted to nobility, but he was still the same as when he was in Luoyang, just a lieutenant general, and he also had a name but no real power.

.

Lu Bu also has his own little ideas.

It was Li Su who persuaded him to kill Ding Yuan and switch to Dong Zhuo's sect.

Today, he will let Li Su do this.

Lu Bu also had a thorn in his heart about the killing of Ding Yuan, and he felt somewhat regretful.

Twelve-year-old Liu Xie is also standing on the Fengchan platform.

Just seeing Dong Zhuo coming, his body was trembling.

It is true that Dong Zhuo left such a profound shadow on him.

Even though it was Dong Zhuo who deposed his brother Liu Bian and let him ascend the throne.

But in the past few years, Liu Xie has spent every day in fear, fearing that one day, like his brother, he would be forced to drink poisonous wine.

This morning, Wang Yun had already told Liu Xie that inviting Dong Zhuo to come today was not to give in, but to kill the traitor Dong.

But even so, when Liu Xie saw Dong Zhuo, he was still divided.

Even though he is the emperor of the Han Dynasty, he is only a twelve-year-old boy now.

However, he could still barely control his expression. His body was trembling, but his face was calm, with only deep sadness.

When Dong Zhuo walked up to the Feng Chan platform, Li Su suddenly pulled out his long sword and stabbed Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo was frightened and fled in a hurry.

It's just that his body is now too fat and bulky. Li Su's sword was shot out with hatred, fast and accurate, and the tip of the sword hit Dong Zhuo's heart.

But it was blocked by Dong Zhuo's armor.

But in panic, Dong Zhuo still rolled down from the Fengchan platform.

"Where is my son Fengxian?" Dong Zhuo shouted regardless of the pain.

How could he still not know at this moment that all this was Wang Yun's plan?

Lu Bu took out the secret edict from his arms and shouted: "I, General Lu Bu, have been ordered to punish thieves."

When Lu Bu saw that Li Su failed to kill Dong Zhuo with one sword, he immediately prepared to take action himself.

As for what he had been thinking before, he hoped that Li Su would be like him, and Lu Bu had already forgotten about it at this time.

He could not let Dong Zhuo escape and must kill Dong Zhuo today.

Otherwise they will be the ones who die.

But there was someone faster than Lu Bu. Wang Ding also followed Dong Zhuo all the way after he entered the city.

When Dong Zhuo rolled down from the Fengchan platform, Wang Ding already held the Yanling knife in his hand and rushed to Dong Zhuo's side in a few steps.

When Lu Bu shouted that he was ordered to kill the thief, Wang Ding had already slashed Dong Zhuo's neck with his knife.

The hard training during this period has also shown results.

Dong Zhuo's thick neck, which was not protected by armor, was cut off by Wang Ding with a sword, and his fat head with big round ears just fell into the hands of Lu Bu, who was holding the secret edict.

Cutting off Dong Zhuo's head with his own hands was a good opportunity to enhance his reputation, so Wang Ding naturally wanted to seize it.

From the beginning, he wanted to kill Dong Zhuo himself.

Among the thousand guards who followed Dong Zhuo, some wanted to avenge Dong Zhuo when they saw Dong Zhuo was killed, while some simply threw away their weapons and surrendered.

Wang Ding asked people to carry Dong Zhuo's body onto a cart, and then he personally rode a war horse and pulled the cart, walking around and around the streets of Chang'an City.

Hundreds of thousands of people in Chang'an City came after hearing the news. They were cheering and celebrating. Some people rushed over and spat at Dong Zhuo's body with tears in their eyes.

Many of these people had their families broken up and their wives separated from their children by Dong Zhuo.

Especially those who were forced to come to Chang'an from Luoyang by Dong Zhuo.

Many of their family members died on the road, and now they have nothing.

Dong Zhuo's death is a great relief.

There are even wine shops in Chang'an City that offer free drinks to celebrate with everyone who comes and goes.

Zhang Liao and Gaoshun led the imperial army to maintain law and order in the city.

Zuo Fengyi and Huangfu Song led their soldiers and horses to kill Xiwu.
