Han Sui quickly ran into the backyard of his house, and several Bu Qu followed him. He scratched in the yard for a while, but only found his subordinates who had been beaten to a bloody pulp. Seeing this, Bu Qu also followed him and moved away the bricks.
pieces of rubble and shouted to the people around to help.
Han Sui pulled for a while and finally dug out Lu Bu, but this was not what he wanted. Because Lu Bu was wearing armor and a bag, even though he was hit, it was not like the others.
He was smashed into a pulp. Instead, he was knocked unconscious.
"Quickly, take off his armor!"
Han Sui directed his troops to take off the armor from Lu Bu's body, and took away the horizontal sword beside him. I don't know what Lu Bu was thinking, but he didn't run out immediately after the earthquake.
Just a step too late, he was buried by the collapsed house.
While the tribesmen were busy cleaning up, Han Sui was still frantically rummaging through the rubble on the ground.
Damn it! Han Sui was secretly resentful. He had clearly dropped it here before, but why couldn't he find it now?
Immediately, fear arose in his heart. The emperor's edict was his trump card. As long as he took it out, it would surely cause waves inside and outside Chang'an. But the edict was also a reminder. If someone discovered it, hand it over.
, Chen Cheng is not allowed to kill his whole family!
Han Sui rummaged through the rubble for a long time, but still couldn't find the fatal thing, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.
At the end of the street, there was a sound of footsteps like a rainstorm. The footsteps got closer and closer, and then someone shouted the command: "Stop!, turn left!"
"Bang!" "Bang!"
Several Xiliang officers trotted over with a group of soldiers, and Han Sui's heart suddenly hung in the air. He looked dryly at the soldiers and horses getting closer and closer, and his mind went blank. Wasn't he not?
He had seen a large battle, and even he could not count the number of people killed. But now that he had just lost that fatal thing, he suddenly saw a large group of soldiers and horses, and thought they were coming to capture him. Fear grew in his heart.
, only then turned into the stunned look now.
"The first team is guarding this side of the street. The others are following me!"
Those soldiers were not here to capture Han Sui, but were sent by Zhao Yun into the city to maintain order after an earthquake. After every major disaster, someone would inevitably take advantage of the situation. So he sent these soldiers to guard the streets and alleys, announcing
The entire city was under martial law, and people were sent to organize the people in the city to clean up the ruins in the city.
On that day, after Zhao Yun left the trapped camp to guard the palace, he led his troops to inspect various construction sites outside the city, arranged more troops and horses, and strengthened the supervision. He had everything prepared. If anyone made trouble, he would kill one of them.
Net Cheng Qin. But who would have thought that such a big earthquake would suddenly happen?
Although earthquakes often occur in Guanzhong, most of them are very minor and the damage caused is not great. This earthquake collapsed many palaces and houses, which has not happened in decades. After the earthquake
, Zhao Yun no longer cared about Han Sui's affairs, and immediately sealed the city gate and declared that Chang'an had entered a state of martial law.
Compared with this big earthquake, what happened to Han Sui was just a trivial matter.
Zhao Yun entered the city with tens of thousands of troops and horses, not worried at all that there would be anything wrong with these original surrendered troops. Although these soldiers had served under Lu Bu, they were all locals from Guanzhong, even though there were some people who were worried about the world being unstable.
, under the strict military discipline and military law, what kind of waves can they make?
Now is an emergency period, and the penalties have been raised by one level. Crimes that can be killed or not, and can be sentenced to exile are all sentenced to death by hanging or beheading. Bodies are hung on both sides of the road, with bloody heads.
Level was picked up with a spear.
After killing hundreds of people who took advantage of the opportunity to rape and rob, no more rogue youths were seen holding open fire on the streets of Chang'an City. Everyone was restricted to a small area. If there were not two people as guarantees, they would immediately
They were imprisoned. Those who dared to resist were beheaded on the spot.
Even several local civil and military officials were ordered to be executed by Zhao Yun without hesitation after violating the ban. This thunderbolt method frightened all those who had evil intentions and were ready to take action. Officials and powerful people had some private soldiers.
, but how can we defeat an army of tens of thousands?
The soldiers who had just surrendered were still a little dissatisfied, but in this catastrophe, they completely sided with Zhao Yun. It only took half a day to control the situation inside and outside Chang'an. Jia Xu was in charge.
Weiyang Palace handled disaster relief matters, Zhao Yun led troops to patrol the four directions, and no one could see anyone who dared to cause trouble.
After Han Sui was busy for a while, he finally stopped because of his old age and lack of strength. He looked at the people around him and the soldiers who came over to work together to gradually clean up the surrounding area. When Lu Bu was sent back, the courtyard
After all the people buried inside were dug out, Han Sui became even more uneasy.
He had been watching from the side, and when he saw some letters, papers, etc., he quickly brought them over. But when the house was cleaned up, the damn edict was still missing, as if it had never existed.
. For a long time after that, this incident became Han Sui's worry, making him sleepless and eating, and he also aged rapidly.
When the earthquake occurred, the Xiliang Army and Dong Zhuo Army outside Xiaguang City were in position, preparing to decide the winner. The Xiliang Army was gearing up and full of confidence. The previous strength gap between them and the enemy had been eliminated.
We have evened a lot, and we will definitely achieve an unprecedented victory today.
Dong Zhuojun is also very confident, at least on the surface they seem to be very confident. Even if they are not confident, they still have to pretend to be 100 times more confident. Bingzhou has been harmed by them. Originally, there were more than 100,000 registered households in Bingzhou.
In the two or three years since Dong Zhuo took power in Bingzhou, the number of registered households has plummeted, and has now dropped to about 10,000 households.
It’s not that nine-tenths of the people died, but that there were only so many people left who could pay taxes to the government. At least half of them went up the mountains to become bandits. Anyway, there are mountains everywhere in Bingzhou. As long as you have the courage
If you are old enough, you can probably get bleak freedom if you run up the mountain. The remaining 10,000 households would probably have fled if they were not watched by soldiers and horses.
Such a small population cannot support Dong Zhuo's more than 100,000 troops. If Guanzhong cannot be conquered, everyone from Dong Zhuo to Hu Zhen, Li Meng, Yang Ding, Li Jue, and Guo Si will have no choice but to drink.
When the northwest wind blows, the troops gather together with pay, but disperse when there is no food. Without food, in a few days, the army of 100,000 will be completely wiped out.
Moreover, the hungry soldiers are not afraid of anything. They may take the sacrificial flags of their leaders before they break up. Dong Zhuo is not very afraid of the latter. He thinks that he has great control over the army and
The influence is there, and it will never fall to that point.
However, if there is no food to eat, all the troops under his command will be wiped out. This is something that the ambitious Mr. Dong cannot tolerate.
On the west side of the battlefield, Chen Cheng felt that it was almost done, and was about to order the soldiers to blow the horns. Suddenly, his body shook. Just when he was surprised, the ground shook violently.
"No, there's an earthquake!"
Chen Cheng understood immediately and shouted: 'Be careful, there's an earthquake!'
But even if his voice were ten times louder, what effect would it have in the face of such natural and man-made disasters?
The shaking here was more severe than the shaking near Chang'an. The soldiers who were originally neatly arranged were shaken and staggered, and everyone became panicked. No matter how elite the soldier is, no matter how brave the warrior is, as long as he has not escaped from the human race
In the face of this majestic power of nature, all categories are insignificant and not worth mentioning.
However, if you go to pray to gods and worship Buddha because you have witnessed the violent power of nature, you will be despised by Chen Cheng. He can no longer completely deny the existence of gods and Buddhas, but as long as the gods cannot show their power in front of him, then he can only
It will be treated as if it does not exist.
Next to the army is the Weishui River. At this time, with the earthquake, thousands of waves broke out in the river. The earth surged, and the waves suddenly became bigger in the rushing river. Waves five to six meters high rushed to the shore, and were about to
Many soldiers and horses from both sides in the water formation were swept away.
Although the war horses were well-trained, they became violent in the face of such a disaster. Many horses jumped wildly, knocking the riders to the ground. Chen Cheng tried his best to calm down the frantic mounts, and looked around intently.
It seems that the mighty and powerful army has fallen into chaos.
Many troops have been broken up, and only the Ya soldiers can barely maintain some organization. Although they have fallen into chaos, they have not broken up. The Xiliang army is so unbearable, and Dong Zhuo's army on the opposite side is not much better. Dong Zhuo
The army is less organized and usually relies on strict punishments and laws to maintain discipline in the army, but in the face of such natural disasters, the so-called discipline suddenly disappears.
Many cavalry hit their horses and fled to other places, while the infantry threw away their weapons and armor and ran away.
The earthquake lasted for a short time and basically destroyed the organization and morale of the Xiliang Army and Dong Zhuo Army. When the surroundings calmed down, Chen Cheng sighed in awe of the vast power of nature while trying his best to gather the surrounding people.
Troops and horses. After working hard for a long time, we were able to collect three to four thousand infantry and cavalry, which was less than one-tenth of the troops and horses that went out.
Now that his formation and morale were gone, Chen Cheng had no intention of fighting anymore, so he prepared to take these soldiers and horses back to the camp. In the earthquake just now, the Weishui River surged thousands of times, submerging half of a camp built by the water. Now it is still
It is necessary to rescue all the people and materials inside.
The order had just been given and the soldiers were returning to camp. Suddenly, a man rushed over on horseback. Chen Cheng took a closer look and saw that it was Han Li, the son of Han Sui. Han Li came to Chen Cheng and shouted: "My lord, please postpone the withdrawal of troops!"
"
Chen Cheng was stunned. Now that the situation is like this, why should we continue to fight if we don't withdraw our troops? In the earthquake just now, I don't know how many people were injured or killed, and they need rescue now!
