Chapter 65: Biography of the Jade Seal

Sun Ce was defeated, and the soldiers and horses led by Sun Jian were also defeated by Gan Ning. The entire Jiangdong Army could not resist the ferocious counterattack of the Yulin Army and fled the city one after another. Chen Lang quickly ordered the troops to close the four gates and put them on guard, and at the same time cleared the enemy's skirmishers in the city. The war came to an end.

Many soldiers shuttled back and forth in the streets and alleys of Luoyang City, banging the gong while shouting loudly: "The people don’t panic, General Yingyang has expelled the rebels! People don’t panic, General Yingyang has expelled Rebels!..." The people in the city heard that General Yingyang had taken control of Luoyang, they couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. Many people thanked God for coming. It turned out that during the period when Chen Lang was stationed in Luoyang, he had strict military discipline and often helped the people. Therefore, the people were very grateful to the Yingyang Army and General Yingyang. They were very pleased to hear that General Yingyang took control of Luoyang.

Jiangdong Army defeated Luoyang, and Sun Jian was very angry and cursed: "What are the other princes doing? Why haven't anyone come for so long!"

Huang Gai rushed over to report in a hurry: "Master, Young Master is injured!" Sun Jian was taken aback and hurried to inspect. When Sun Ce saw his father coming, he quickly got up and saw him. Sun Jian hurriedly supported Sun Ce, and said in an angry manner: "If you have an injury, don't move!" Then he was relieved to see that although Sun Ce's injury was not minor, it was not a major problem.

Sun Jian asked incomprehensibly: "My son is brave and invincible, who can hurt you?"

Sun Cejai said, "It's Chen Lang! One day I will return the humiliation to him a hundredfold!"

Sun Jian and the others were taken aback. Sun Jian frowned and muttered: "I have heard of Chen Lang Xiaoyong a long time ago, and he really deserves his reputation!"

A scout rode a horse and ran to a short distance behind Sun Jian, strangled the horse, turned over, rushed to the side of Sun Jian and knelt down on one knee, reporting: The cavalry's surprise attack has caused a lot of damage."

Sun Jian frowned. Zhou Yu nodded and said, "No wonder they were late, because they were attacked by enemy cavalry."

Huang Gai scolded angrily: "That Chen Lang is really cunning!"

Zhou Yu said to Sun Jian: "It seems that it is impossible to capture Luoyang in one fell swoop. It is better to set up the camp first, and then make plans after the princes and soldiers arrive." Sun Jian nodded and immediately ordered the troops to camp.

At this moment, Han Dang also led his troops to retreat. When Han Dang saw Sun Jian, he clasped his fists with ashamed expression: "Master, I am incompetent and repelled by the enemy!" Sun Jian patted Han Dang on the shoulder and comforted: "This is not your fault, it is the enemy. Too cunning!"

When Han Dang remembered something, he quickly untied a yellow silk wrapper on his back, presented his hands to Sun Jian, and said as if offering a treasure: "Fortunately, this battle is not completely useless. I will finally find this!"

Sun Jian couldn't help being curious. When he reached out his hand, the yellow silk parcel was opened, and the Nine Dragons were wrapped around each other, and the legendary jade seal of the legendary kingdom came into view. Sun Jian and others were all shocked when they saw this. Huang Gai's eyes widened and shouted: "This, this is the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom!!"

Han Dang nodded and said, "It was just passing through Yuxi. I found it from the body of an eunuch."

Sun Ce said excitedly: "This is God's will! God gave the country's jade seal to Daddy, that means Daddy is the fate of God!!" The generals all agreed, all very excited. Sun Jian couldn't help but smile, and thought of it in his heart.

Zhou Yu frowned and said, "This is just a stone, it's useless at all!"

Everyone looked at Zhou Yu, and Huang Gai said in an unpleasant manner; "The jade seal of the country represents the destiny of heaven, how can it be said to be useless!" Everyone agreed, saying that Zhou Yu's statement was too absurd.

Zhou Yu said to Sun Jian: "Uncle, passing on the jade seal of the country not only can't bring any practical benefits, but will put uncle at the target of public criticism and bring infinite disasters. Therefore, it is a disaster at all!" Sun Jian frowned and said nothing. Cheng Pu said: "The words of Lord Zhou are a bit inexplicable! The rumored jade seal represents the destiny, so how can it bring disasters! The jade seal falls into the hands of the lord, this is the will of heaven! Is it possible that we want to extrapolate this providence? Violation I am afraid that God’s will is the way to bring disaster!” Huang Gai echoed: “Yes, Demou’s words are extremely true! This is God’s will, how can I go against God’s will!” Sun Jian nodded and said: "Since it is God’s will, then I will accept it." Zhou Yu was shocked and said anxiously: "Uncle..." Sun Jian waved his hand impatiently and said, "I know Gong Jin, you are kind, but I have already decided, so stop talking! "Zhou Yu was depressed.

In Luoyang City, Chen Lang sat down on the steps in front of the Nancheng Gate Tower, and looked at the earth illuminated by the sun with a lot of thoughts.

Dong Yuan, Gan Ning, and Chun Yuqiong came to Chen Lang's side, clasped his fists and said, "Big Brother (Langge) (General)."

Chen Lang asked: "How is the situation?"

auzw.com Dong Yuan said: "All cavalry has retreated into the city. The total strength of all the troops and horses of the Imperial Forest Army plus ours is 120,000." Gan Ning said: "Every city wall is It is very intact and has not been damaged in any way." Chun Yuqiong said: "All major depots have sufficient food, grass and weapons, and the people are fairly calm."

Chen Lang was surprised and said: "The food, grass, and weapons in the major depots are actually very sufficient?!" Then he nodded clearly and said; "Yes, it must be that the enemy came too suddenly, and the master went too hurriedly, so they all Daku’s grain, grass, and ordnance are all down!” He smiled, “Okay! With enough grain, grass, and ordnance, this battle will begin!”

Dong Yuan said worriedly: "Although we have enough food, grass and weapons, we only have 120,000 soldiers and horses. How can this be able to withstand the opponent's more than one million people!"

Chen Lang smiled and said: "Don't think about this problem for now, let's talk about it if you really can't resist it." Dong Yuan gave Chen Lang angrily.

Chen Lang asked; "What's the situation on Yunchang's side?" Gan Ning said, "I just received the news that Yunchang's side is very calm, and the enemy did not attack Bangshuiguan."

Chen Lang smiled; "The Tiger Prison Pass is broken. I am afraid that the thoughts of those princes are all on Luoyang and the emperor." He turned his head and glanced at the three of them, and said: "The armies take turns to rest and be careful." The three clasped their fists and promised. .

The princes from all walks of life came to Luoyang City one after another, and Yuan Shao summoned all the princes to discuss matters in the big account.

Cao Cao first said: "Dong Zhuo is holding your Majesty and fleeing in a hurry. We should immediately raise troops to chase Dong Thief to save His Majesty, and then be ordered by heaven to destroy the rebel." Everyone whispered, everyone seemed to be uninterested.

Cao Cao frowned and asked, "Why don't the princes speak? Isn't what Cao said is wrong?"

Yuan Shao said, "Brother Meng De stay calm. The matter of chasing Dong Thief and saving Shengjia will be discussed later. Now I have more important things to talk about." Cao Cao was surprised and looked at Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao looked at Sun Jian, who was sitting in danger, and asked, "I heard that Wentai got something during its invasion of Luoyang?"

When Sun Jian heard the words, he couldn't help but feel shocked. He pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What did Brother Benchu ​​say? Why don't I know?"

Yuan Shu, who was sitting next to Yuan Shao, couldn't bear it anymore. Huo Suisheng got up and asked, "Where is the Jade Seal of the Kingdom?" When this statement came out, all the princes lost their color. Sun Jianhuo got up, and said angrily: "I don't know how Brother Gong heard such rumors! The rumored jade seal is the emperor's property, how can it be with me?!"

Yuan Shu sneered: "You know it is the emperor's belongings. As a courtier, if you dare to hide the emperor's belongings, do you mean to rebel?"

Sun Jian was furious, and shouted: "There is nothing wrong with the crime! Yuan Shu, don't spit people!"

Yuan Shu hehe sneered, and said: "You all say you Sun Jian is bold, but I didn't expect it to be so treacherous! If we don't have real evidence, how can we come to ask you!" Then he shouted outside: "Bring people up!" , Then two soldiers led an officer to the tent. When Sun Jian saw it, he was startled. The other person was a soldier beside him. Sun Jian furiously cursed: "You are rebellious, I'm looking for you everywhere, but I didn't expect you to run to the leader to slander me!" Cursing, he pulled out the ancient ingot knife and rushed towards the officer. Upon seeing this, the officer was frightened!

Sun Jian was about to slash the officer with his sword, but he was blocked by a spear extending from the diagonal stab, but Zhang Fei couldn't bear to jump forward to hold Sun Jian's ancient sword. Sun Jian was taken aback. Zhang Fei stared and shouted: "You guy is guilty of wanting to kill people!"

Sun Jian's face was green and white. Yuan Shu shouted: "What a Sun Jian, you dare to kill people in front of us, you are too mad!" All the princes showed dissatisfaction.

Sun Jian retracted the ancient ingot knife and pointed at the officer loudly: "This man colluded with Chen Lang to make our army able to attack Luoyang, but ultimately fell short! I wanted him to rectify the law on the spot, but he escaped here without thinking. Slander me in a vain attempt to get rid of sin!"

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help believing. The officer yelled anxiously; "I didn't collude with Chen Lang! I didn't!..." Sun Jian turned his head abruptly, staring at him and shouted, "You still dare to quibble!" I can’t say anything.

Yuan Shu said to the officer: "Don't be afraid, he can't kill you here. Tell everything you know."

The officer glanced at Sun Jian with a pale face, swallowed his saliva, and said tremblingly: "Last night, last night our army defeated Luoyang. Soon after, General Han Dang came and brought one thing, which is the Jade Seal of the State, which is said to be from He found it in an eunuch. Sun and Sun Jian said that he said that this was the destiny of heaven, so he took the Jade Seal of the Kingdom as his own!" Everyone listened to him in a clear structure, and couldn't help but believe it seven or eight. Yuan Shu said loudly: "Everyone has heard that, Sun Jian secretly concealed the jade seal of the country, and the sins are the same to deceive the king!"

Sun Jian was furious, drew out the ancient ingot knife and glared at Yuan Shu and shouted: "You slander me, will I wait and die?"
