Liu Xie saw a shining sword suddenly appearing above Fu Shou's head, about to chop it down!
His mind went blank and he opened his mouth wide, but somehow no sound came out.
At this moment, Zuo Ling, the prefect of Nanjun on the side, reacted the fastest and shouted at the man holding the sword: "Who are you!"
Everyone was shocked and turned around to take a closer look. It turned out to be Fu Jie Ling Sun Yan!
When Sun Yan saw what had happened, he looked ferocious and did not answer. He slashed at Fu Shou with his knife. Zuo Ling had already drawn the knife in his hand and raised it with his backhand. The two swords met and each side deflected.
Sun Yan's knife was blocked and hit the shoulder of the waiter next to Fu Shou. Blood splattered all over Fu Shou. She screamed and retreated involuntarily, threatening to fall off the river bank if she looked at it.
Fu De, with quick eyesight and quick hands, pulled Fu Shou behind him and shouted to Sun Yan: "What are you doing?"
Seeing that he had chopped the wrong person, Sun Yan drew his sword and took several steps back. His face was gloomy and uncertain, and all the officials kept away from him.
At this time Dong Cheng spoke, "Maybe he didn't recognize the emperor and the empress. He saw someone holding a piece of silk in his hand, so he grabbed it this time. This was also for the emperor to board the ship. It was all a misunderstanding."
Liu Xie squinted his eyes and slowly scanned the crowd. Sun Yan held the knife and lowered his head in silence, but Dong Cheng faced it head on, seeming to be extremely candid.
Liu Xie's eyes finally fell on Dong Guiren in the distance, and found that his expression was strange, as if there was a look of regret on his face.
He also saw that among the crowd, there seemed to be several people who were ready to make a move. He knew that this time was extremely sensitive, and if he said the wrong thing, the officials might start killing each other in the next moment.
The shouts of killing from Li Jue and Guo Si's army were heard in the distance. They saw the light of the fire and were already chasing after them. Yang Fengxu Huang was leading his men to block and delay the attack.
When Liu Xie saw this, he sighed secretly and winked at Fu De next to Fu Shou.
Fu De understood and said loudly: "Horse bridles are not suitable for binding the emperor. Indeed, silk cloth is the most suitable!"
"Yuan Ji·Volume 28": Dong Cheng and others thought it was appropriate and ordered Liu Taishou to send Li Le to ferry a boat at night and raise a fire in response. He and the ministers stepped out of the camp and approached the river to help. The bank was more than ten feet high and they were not allowed to go down.
.
It was discussed that the horse's bridle should be fastened to the emperor's waist. At that time, his brother Fu De supported him and held ten pieces of silk in one hand. Dong Cheng sent Fu Jie to order Sun Yan to cut off the queen from the human world. Zuo Ling said: "What kind of person are you!" He defended him with a sword.
Then, he killed the waiter beside him, and the blood was splashed on his back clothes. Fu De did not touch the waist of the horse's bridle, and used silk as a bridle.
Fu pulled Fu Shou who was still in a daze, took out the silk cloth from his arms, handed it to Dong Cheng, and said: "General, we have the silk cloth."
After hearing this, Dong Cheng took the silk cloth calmly and said to the attendant: "Tie the silk cloth around the emperor's waist and put it down. Don't hurt the emperor!"
At this time, the school captain Xiang Hong came up and ordered the guards to tear apart the silk cloth and tie one end around Liu Xie's waist. He and several guards pulled the other end and slowly hung Liu Xie down.
Liu Xie looked at the rolling river water under his feet, his feet trembling. This height was higher than the Chang'an city wall!
He knew that he could not delay any longer. If he hesitated, many more people would die later!
He turned to Fu Shou and said, "When I get on the boat, you can follow me down."
Although Fu Shou had a look of panic on his face, he still suppressed his fear and nodded vigorously.
Dong Guiren on the side looked at it with secret hatred in his heart, and his eyes showed an unusual light.
Liu Xie noticed Dong Guiren's expression and felt cold in his heart. He looked at his feet, gritted his teeth and jumped forward. His body suddenly fell. The silk cloth suddenly stretched straight. The soldier holding the silk cloth quickly used force to pull Liu Xie's body.
.
As the silk cloth was lowered little by little, Liu Xie got closer and closer to the boat under his feet. Finally, Liu Xie finally stepped on the board of the boat. Everyone on the shore cheered and felt relieved.
Then everyone looked at the long silk cloth, and their eyes suddenly became hot.
Fu De pulled the silk back and immediately tied it on Fu Shou. He pressed the handle of the knife with one hand while staring at Dong Cheng.
Dong Cheng saw it and knew that if Fu De got violent and cut the silk cloth, Dong Guiren would not be able to get out, so he had to shout: "How long will it take to use silk one by one?"
"Except for the emperor's family members, everyone else climbed down the river bank!"
The officials had no choice but to drag the weeds along the steep river bank, dig at the shallow stone pits on the river wall, and rub down bit by bit.
From time to time, someone would lose their footing and their bodies would roll and fall. They would fall into the river amidst screams, and then be swept away by the cold and fast current without a trace.
Those who were lucky enough to get down to the river bank, regardless of the biting river water, struggled to swim in the water and get into the boat. They looked dignified and looked even more embarrassed than a dog.
Those who got on the boat couldn't help laughing. When the officials on the river bank saw it, they became even more anxious and scrambled to climb down.
At this time, there was complete chaos on the river bank. Hundreds of officers and soldiers formed a stream of people and swept towards the river bank.
On the river bank, Fu De had just lifted Fu Shou onto the bow of the boat and wanted to throw the silk cloth down. However, Dong Cheng, with quick eyesight and quick hands, snatched it away, pulled the silk cloth up and tied it around Dong Guiren's waist.
Fu De cursed secretly and called Zuo Ling. The two of them inserted their knives into the earthen wall by the river and climbed down steadily.
Liu Xie pulled Fu Shou and saw Dong Guiren also boarding the boat, and said calmly: "The noble man is frightened."
Dong Guiren's heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly whispered: "I don't dare."
However, Liu Xie ignored her and raised his head to watch the people on the river bank rushing down like a flood, seeming to submerge his boat.
The shouts of death in the distance gradually approached, and everyone became more panicked. They fell to the shore and died. People fell into the water and drowned everywhere. They saw more and more people on the boat, and it was almost full!
Liu Xie looked around the boat. It was not a big boat, and there were only a few dozen people on it. He recognized all of them.
Queen Fushou, several nobles, Guo Zhaoer, Taiwei Yang Biao, Zongzheng Liu Ai, Zhijinwu Fuwan, Shizhong Zhongji... The middle official servant She Fude, Shilang Wang Chou, Yulin Lang Houqi,
There were dozens of government officials including General Dong Cheng of Wei, Zuo Ling, Governor of Nanjun, and others.
But compared to those who did not board the ship, these people were less than one-tenth.
Seeing that the guards were about to get on the boat, Dong Cheng shouted: "You are not allowed to get on the boat. If you get on the boat again, it will capsize!"
But who would listen to him at this time? Hundreds of people desperately pulled the side of the ship with their hands, trying to turn it over. The force was everywhere, and the ship suddenly shook violently. All the nobles fell on the board one after another, panicking.
Dong Cheng and Li Le looked at each other, took out their Changge at the same time, stood on the side of the boat, waved their Changge, and chopped off the fingers holding the side of the ship one by one!
Amidst the screams, countless fingers were cut off and fell into the cabin.
The soldiers and guards who had their fingers cut off screamed and fell into the river. Someone from behind immediately pounced on them again, grabbed the side of the boat, and then repeated the same fate as the people in front.
The smell of blood filled the cabin, which was filled with fallen fingers. Thick blood flowed everywhere like streams, staining the deck red. Miserable cries resounded inside and outside the ship.
This sight made Liu Xie want to vomit, and his heart was bleeding. Most of those whose fingers were cut off were the only remaining Habayashi Langs, and that was it!
His lips trembled, as if he wanted to stop him, but in the end he hung his head weakly.
The soldiers who grabbed the side of the ship finally realized that it was impossible to get on the ship. They had no choice but to let go and cursed as they watched the ship slowly leave the shore.
Liu Xie just breathed a sigh of relief and looked back at the river bank, his pupils suddenly tightened.
On the river bank, Li Jue rode a tall horse and led his men to charge up. His soldiers rushed and killed the emperor's convoy who was left behind. The women of the palace who had not escaped were captured and robbed by the soldiers while they were crying.
Liu Xie clenched his fists in his sleeves. He could only comfort himself. He had no choice but to do so. It was Li Jue and Guo Si who were at fault!
Li Jue raised his riding whip and shouted: "Where are you people going to take the Emperor?"
Dong Cheng was frightened and said to Liu Xie: "Ignore him and ask the emperor to hide in the cabin first."
Seeing Liu Xie entering, Dong Cheng saw Li Jue ordering the soldiers to fire arrows, and quickly ordered people to spread out the quilts and hang them up to block the bows and arrows. The ship gradually moved away in the rain of arrows.
In this way, the Emperor's convoy finally escaped to the north bank of the Yellow River. At this time, there were only a few hundred people left compared to the thousands of people who left Chang'an a year ago.
After landing, the Emperor's convoy first arrived at Yang County, and then at Dong Cheng's suggestion, entered Li Le's military camp.
After several days of food shortage, everyone was so hungry and exhausted that they were about to be forced to eat weeds to satisfy their hunger.
Liu Xie was sitting in the tent, enduring the hunger in his stomach and thinking about where to go next.
Along the way, he had become accustomed to thinking when he was hungry. At first, he was so hungry that he almost went crazy and even wanted to bite Fu Shou's hand next to him.
Now he pinches his palms and tries his best to stay awake. Now that he has passed Hexi, will he go to Hanoi, Hedong, or Jizhou next?
He understands that although he can't say it now, it is still possible to steer things in the direction he wants. Since the situation of being held hostage cannot be changed, then he can recruit more people and let these people restrain each other and fight among themselves.
Get some respite from this!
Suddenly there was an uproar outside the camp, and when Liu Xie was in shock and doubt, Fu De came in to report that Wang Yi, the governor of Hedong County, and Zhang Yang, the governor of Hanoi County, came to greet him with food and clothing!
Fan Shu "Dong Zhuo Biography": After arriving in Dayang, he stopped at someone else's house, and then he was lucky to be in Li Le camp. All the officials were hungry, and Zhang Yang, the prefect of Hanoi, sent thousands of people to pay rice and tribute. The emperor was driving an ox cart, and his capital was Anyi. Wang Yi, the prefect of Hedong,
Donate the silk and give it to the Duke and the following.
In the following days, Liu Xie sent his servant Han Rong back to Shaanxi County on the south bank to have peace talks with Li Jue and Guo Si. He successfully recovered the plundered palace people, officials and several vehicles, and the emperor's prestige could not be restored.
few.
Liu Xie struck while the iron was hot and appointed officials and generals in Anyi, Hedong's administrative office. Except for Yang Feng, who had already worshiped the general before returning to the east, the others were entrusted as follows:
Hu Cai is the general who conquers the north and is the pastor of Bingzhou. Li Le is the general who conquers the west and leads the pastor of Liangzhou. Han Xian is the general who conquers the east and leads the pastor of Youzhou. Zhang Yang is the general of Anguo and is named Marquis of Jinyang. These four people are on holiday.
, opening a mansion is like the three Dukes.
Wang Yi was made General of Zhenbei and granted the title of Marquis of Anyang Ting.
Soon after, the news reached Jicheng, Youzhou. Yuan Xi was discussing the matter with everyone at this time. After hearing it, he joked to Liu He: "As the governor of Youzhou, my reputation is not justified."
