The guard was even more careful, fearing that if he accidentally damaged one of them, he would not be able to make up for it even if he broke the pot. He checked several vehicles in a row, and General Manager Li was not happy. He said lazily: "I told you, Master, that's pretty much it."
It's endless, take a look for yourself, I have more than a thousand cars, do you want to find out when it gets dark?"
The people all around also started to clamor: "Master, we have to enter the city. If the time comes and the city is closed, where will we go with the chaos everywhere? Master, please be kind, please hurry up!"
The guard pinched his nose and jumped out of the car. He waved his hands repeatedly and said, "It's my duty. I forgive you. Manager Li, please come in. Hey, hey, move the antlers to resist the horse. Come on, come on, the city gate is blocked."
The barriers in front of the city gate were removed, and the motorcade began to enter the city. The common people were crowded aside, helplessly watching the newcomers advance. They had long been accustomed to the life of being a subordinate, and consciously maintained their privileges, even though they might curse in their hearts.
Very vicious.
Manager Li snorted dissatisfiedly. As the motorcade rumbled into the city, a proud smile appeared on his lips as soon as the car entered the shadow.
Thousands of cavalry were silent. Only the snorting sounds of war horses and a few neighings filled the city gate with a suppressed atmosphere. They had rushed thousands of miles away. This was the first level. They had to enter here safely before proceeding to the next step. Otherwise, there would be no need to discuss anything else.
.However, now looking at the towering and tall city walls and the heavy city gates that seemed to be made of iron and stone, their hearts became anxious.
Cao Zhi was in the middle of the convoy. He was now dressed as an ordinary officer, escorting the tribute vehicle. When he passed the guard, he nodded to him with a friendly smile on his face, like two old friends. The guard
Because they were merciless, when Cao Zhi greeted him, he could only nod and wave perfunctorily.
The gate of the city usually looks quite big, but now so many cars and horses are pouring in at once, it is really too crowded. There are still hundreds of cars left outside that have not entered the city. Due to the overcrowding, the drivers driving the cars are cursing loudly.
The men and horses blocking the road jumped out of the car angrily, holding the horse's bridle, and under the command of the escort sergeant standing on the roadside shouting, they struggled to walk through the crowd towards the city gate.
Finally, the last mule cart and a few cattle and sheep entered the city gate. Fortunately, these were well-trained soldiers and worked in an orderly manner. Cao Zhi also deliberately arranged for Liu Bei's men and horses to walk in the middle, one in front and one behind.
It was all his men and horses, and he personally held the battle in the middle, so he could safely enter the city. After four to five thousand men, horses, and chariots entered the pass, they went straight out of the west gate without stopping and headed straight for Feng Yi.
The general guarding the pass wished they had left early! If so many people came down to spend the night, they would be squeezed to death in the palm-sized Hangu Pass. Some people here could not afford to offend them.
After leaving Hangu Pass, the carriages and horses went straight to Feng Yi. The next pass was much easier. The guards guarding the pass took the money and let them go. Lu Kang's official certificate was quite easy to use. Anyway, he came to pay tribute every year.
.
It didn't take long to reach Chang'an after leaving Feng Yi. However, this tribute team set up camp on a wasteland not long after leaving Feng Yi.
If the soldiers at various checkpoints were more diligent and went out to patrol once or twice, they would find that all those cart-style civilians had actually taken off their coarse clothes and put on military armor. Lu Kang, the prefect of Lujiang,
The tribute team now looks like a regular army of four to five thousand people, waiting for the night to fall with murderous intent. Moreover, the place where they are about to go for pilgrimage is not Chang'an, but Xiwu.
Cao Zhi ordered all the cattle and sheep to be slaughtered, so that the soldiers would have a feast. If Lu Kang saw Cao Zhi mistreating his tribute, he would be so angry that he would have a cerebral hemorrhage. Cao Zhi thought that Lu Kang's cattle and sheep were quite right.
!Isn’t it a waste to throw it away? Two to three hundred cattle and sheep can’t be eaten at the moment. All the uneaten food will be distributed to the soldiers to take away. Then there may not be time to bury pots for them to cook.
Before nightfall, all the soldiers burped and lay leisurely on the ground to rest. Because of the hot weather, some people opened their clothes, lay on the ground, leaned against the rocks, enjoying the cool evening breeze, until a shout was heard, followed by several
The rumble of horse hooves disturbed their peace. They saw Le Jin and a few scouts hurriedly riding back.
As soon as everyone saw Le Jin and the others galloping past, they quickly got up and packed their things. They just knew that the critical moment had arrived.
Today, Diyiwu has completely transformed a small town in the central region into a super small city. This city is now Dong Zhuo's private residence, and Dong Zhuo's family lives here.
Of course, Cao Zhi's troops did not go to Chang'an to pay homage to Emperor Xian. Instead, after hearing Yue Jin's report, they immediately set off and headed straight for Xiwu, more than 200 miles away.
Cao Zhi led his troops to quietly approach Xiwu. The first black spot that caught his eye in the open wilderness gradually grew larger from far to near, gradually revealing a huge black shadow.
Although it was not clear yet, the huge outline like Optimus Prime made Cao Zhi feel a majestic and shocking momentum.
When Cao Zhi got closer to the outline in secret shock, he finally got a clear overview of the black shadow.
It is indeed a city. This is by no means a palace, but a super small city that occupies the entire mountain.
What shocked Cao Zhi the most was that the main body of this city or this palace was completely different from what he had seen before. It was not built on flat ground, but with the original town as the center, with a towering tower like a cloud.
The huge mountain is the foundation, and palaces and houses are built in circles on its surface in a spiral shape.
At the bottom of the giant mountain, there are various buildings one after another, extending to the edge of the road, with almost no gaps.
There is no doubt that this is the "Xiwu Palace", the largest sexual den in history, that Dong Zhuo spent countless people's money and lives in exchange for.
Nowadays, Diyinwu is Dong Zhuo's private domain. The highest level "Zhiding Palace" lives in this castle. The sole owner of the palace, Dong Zhuo, rules the entire Eastern Han Empire from there.
After Dong Zhuo moved into Yiwu Palace, he became more and more mysterious and unusual. He rarely left the Zenith Palace. Wang Yun even planned to say that Emperor Xian would intend to give him the Zen throne, and issued an edict to ask Dong Zhuo to return to Chang'an. Wang Yun wanted to confront Dong Zhuo in the Chang'an Palace.
To start, Lu Bu had even arranged for his trusted warriors to disguise themselves as guards and join the ranks of the imperial guards, specifically guarding the palace entrance. As soon as Dong Zhuo's chariot entered the palace gate, he would assassinate him.
But Dong Zhuo was unwilling to leave the Zenith Palace, and actually asked Emperor Xian to come to Xiwu to sit in meditation with him. Dong Zhuo rarely appeared in public, so there were four rumors. Some said he was dead, and some said he was seriously ill.
What's more, it is said that he was infatuated with a beautiful woman and hid with her in the palace day and night to have fun with her. He even didn't want to be the emperor anymore.
Dong Zhuo wanted to be the emperor, but he also wanted to embrace a beautiful woman. "Can't my Xiwu be used as a palace?"
ps: The 200-day event of the World Expo has finally come to an end. Yifan was so miserable that he stood at the bus stop at 7:30 in the morning wearing a red armband and a small flag to promote civilization. He basically felt like a traffic coordinator.
