Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Chapter 456 The troops arrive in Luoyang

Originally, Cao Rui was not so upset when he heard the battle report. After all, he was used to it. But when he thought about it carefully, he suddenly lost his composure.

"You just said where is Ma Su? Where is the Shu army?"

"Heyin! The Shu army has reached Heyin, which is less than a hundred miles away from Luoyang!" The soldiers reported in panic, sweating profusely.

"The troops that have returned from Guanzhong are still resisting, but they can no longer stop the Shu army. It won't be long before the Shu army comes to Luoyang City. They will fight out!"

"How is this possible!" Cao Rui suddenly stood up, his face full of disbelief.

That is the most powerful pass in the world, Tongguan, and that is the Qinguan Pass! That's one hundred thousand Guanzhong troops, and that's eighty thousand reinforcements from Guandong!

Since last autumn, the entire country has been going all out to reinforce Guanzhong, investing tens of thousands of dollars and grains. The final result was that not only was Guanzhong gone, but the Shu army also fought all the way to the capital Luoyang?

"Where is the Guanzhong army? Where is Sima Yi? Didn't he promise me that he would stop the Shu army in Chang'an?" Cao Rui's face became extremely ugly, and he stood up angrily and asked. The emotions were very intense for a while, and the doctor next to him was frightened when he saw this scene.

"Your Majesty! Calm down, your illness cannot be affected by emotions..."

"Calm down? How can I be calm? If I remain calm, Ma Su should go shopping in Luoyang!" Cao Rui's face turned red with anger, and the anger in his eyes could no longer be concealed.

Cao Rui has always been very calm, but since he met Ma Su, his nemesis, he can no longer calm down.

After all, if anyone heard that the Shu army was fighting in Chang'an a few days ago, and today heard that Ma Su was less than a hundred miles away from him, no one would be able to calm down.

"Your Majesty! The ministers outside the palace are asking for a meeting, requesting your Majesty to send troops to resist as soon as possible, and call on the Kwantung armies to come to the rescue!" At this time, a eunuch hurried to the palace and reported to Cao Rui.

"The leaders are Situ Gaorou, Sikong Chenqun, Sima Jiang Ji..."

Ma Di is now a nightmare for everyone in the Cao Wei court. From Sangong to Gong Cao, everyone's expression changed when they heard Ma Su's name.

So when they heard that Ma Su and the Shu army suddenly appeared outside Luoyang City like divine soldiers descending from heaven, no one in the court could sit still. After a short silence, everyone hurriedly came to see Cao Rui and asked his Majesty to send troops to resist.

We must not let Ma Su break into Luoyang! This butcher really kills without blinking an eye!

"Send troops to resist? Where will I send troops? Do you want me to lead three thousand Yulin troops to resist!" Cao Ruiyu's anger has not subsided, and his face has become more and more ugly.

All this made the imperial doctor extremely nervous. Thinking of the lessons learned by the old veteran Hua Tuo, he had the urge to write a suicide note immediately.

However, Cao Rui's anger and worry are normal. At this moment, Luoyang really has no troops to resist.

Luoyang Yin was originally guarded by tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and Xu County was less than two hundred miles away, so he could also quickly serve the king.

However, in the past few years, the Shu Han, Dong Wu and Northern Expeditions have been successive, and Cao Wei's military depletion in various war zones has been extremely serious. Especially after the fall of Nanyang, in order to withstand the pressure from the south, Luoyang's garrison was mobilized in large numbers.

In addition, Guanzhong began to quarrel with the Shu Han last year. In order to urgently rescue Sima Yi, Cao Rui asked Sima Fu to take away Luoyang Yin's last 20,000 troops.

At present, there are only 6,000 troops stationed in the inner and outer cities of Luoyang City, including the Yulin Army! With this small force, Cao Rui no longer considered how to stop Ma Su. He should consider how to defend Luoyang.

"Wait a minute, you just said that the Guanzhong Army is still fighting Ma Su in Heyin, right?" Cao Rui suddenly thought of something, looked at the guard, and immediately ordered.

"Let Sima Yi lead the Guanzhong army back to Luoyang as soon as possible, and join the Luoyang defenders to resist the Shu army's offensive! As for his confiscation of Guanzhong and the loss of territory, I won't argue with him!"

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid... it won't be easy. The Guanzhong Army has suffered huge losses. It is estimated that it will be impossible to break away from the Shu Army."

"What? How many more of them are there?" After hearing this, Cao Rui suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart.

Even if the Shu army chased them all the way from Xiaohan Road, their strength would not be too large. If you can't escape with this small force, how many people are left in the Guanzhong Army?

"I'm afraid... less than 10,000!" The guard who reported the report said tremblingly, his whole body soaked in cold sweat.

As soon as he said this, Cao Rui rolled his eyes, fell to the ground on his back, and fainted on the spot!

"His Majesty!"

"Royal doctor! Save your majesty quickly!"

"Something happened to Your Majesty!"

After Ma Su led his troops to Heyin and defeated Guo Huai again, the road to Luoyang was no longer dangerous. As soon as this news came out, everyone in the Cao Wei Dynasty was in panic, and people in Luoyang City were panicked for a while.

No one thought that the Shu army, which was supposed to appear thousands of miles away, would suddenly appear in Luoyang Yin, less than a hundred miles away from the capital!

Such a terrifying situation was something no one expected.

There is no way, the Han army is advancing too fast, and Guanzhong is completely unable to resist it. Coupled with the collective rebellion of the Yang family and the entire Guanxi wealthy family, Ma Di led the Han army into Luoyang Yin so smoothly.

Cao Rui fainted on the spot because he could not accept the news. In response to this, Chen Qun and others had to invite the Queen out and asked Queen Guo to stamp the seal on her behalf, calling on the Kwantung armies to serve the King.

At the same time, the entire outer city of Luoyang was in chaos. Because the news that the Shu army was about to attack made the people fearful, some people even took the opportunity to go to the streets to rob.

The three thousand soldiers who were originally responsible for maintaining order were urgently transferred to the top of the city in an attempt to make a final resistance. But everyone knows that it may not be easy for people like this to stop the Shu army.

In order to bluff, the Wei army had to recruit many people to go to the city to set up false flags. They tried to intimidate the Shu army by planting flags all over the place and letting the soldiers in the field go up to gather the number of people.

At this moment, the entire capital of Cao Wei ushered in the darkest moment when it was at its most empty!

"Brother, what's going on here? Why are all the soldiers in the city so nervous?" At this time, in a house in Luoyang, a child curiously asked his brother, who was a high-ranking official.

"There is someone outside the city that makes them so afraid that even the Yulin Army was alerted."

"Remember the Xishu man I told you before who had a grudge against us for killing our father? He came to Luoyang! The one who brought them here was Ma Di, the famous general of Xishu."

The toddler's elder brother smiled bitterly and carefully explained to his younger brother.

"Ma Su alone caused so much panic in Luoyang, even His Majesty was panicked. This is what a man should do!" When the child heard his brother's explanation, he was filled with envy for a moment. But before he finished speaking, his brother covered his mouth, his expression suddenly changed and he said,

"Brother, don't talk nonsense!"
