Three Kingdoms: Ten Times Speed, Diao Chan Says I'm Too Fast
Chapter 529 The Death of He Jin! [3]
It was noon, the sun was shining brightly, and the scorching sun hung high in the blue sky, baking the earth.
There was no rain in January, and the water level of the Luo River had dropped to an extremely low level.
Near the southeast of Luoyang city, close to the bank of the Luo River, a huge military camp was set up.
This place was originally the camp where the five Northern Army Schools were stationed.
After the Battle of Jizhou, in which the five schools of the Northern Army were completely wiped out, this place became an empty camp.
After the beginning of the year, He Jin began to recruit soldiers again to establish the Five Schools of the Northern Army, citing the weakness of the Northern Army and the inadequacy of Luoyang's defenses.
As a general, He Jin originally had the right to mobilize troops from all over the country.
Unfortunately, General He Jin was essentially sidelined in Luoyang.
The city defense forces currently stationed in Luoyang, including the Tiger Warriors and the troops under Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, are not obeying He Jin's orders.
It was precisely for this reason that He Jin was eager to take control of an army.
However, they had previously suffered from a lack of money and food, and Empress Dowager Dong would absolutely not contribute a single copper coin or a single grain of millet.
Fortunately, with Duan Yu's blank paper and the share of the snow salt business, He Jin finally had some money and grain reserves.
At this moment, inside the central command tent of the five schools of the Northern Army.
He Jin was sitting in the stuffy tent.
His armor had been removed, leaving him only in a thin long robe.
Two maids knelt on either side of He Jin, using palm-leaf fans to cool him off from the sweltering heat.
Since the establishment of the five schools of the Northern Army, He Jin has lived here for most of his time.
He would only return home every now and then to visit Empress He and spend some time with his concubines.
The sweltering heat made He Jin's face show a hint of anxiety.
I picked up the cool honey water in front of me and gulped down a big mouthful, which finally relieved some of the heat.
Just as He Jin placed the bowl of water in his hand on the table.
A guard entered the main tent.
"General, someone from the manor has come and says they have important news to report. They are outside the camp and wish to see you."
Upon hearing this, He Jin casually waved his hand and said, "Let him in."
Before long, a servant from the manor came into the tent with his head down.
"whats the matter."
He Jin leaned back in his recliner, closed his eyes, and asked.
The servant immediately knelt on the ground, swallowed hard, glanced furtively at He Jin, and then lowered his head to whisper, "Reporting to the General, Her Majesty the Empress..."
"Her Majesty the Empress is about to give birth..."
Ok?
He Jin, who was leaning back in his chair, immediately straightened up: "Is the Empress about to give birth?"
The servant, kneeling on the ground with his head bowed, nodded: "Yes...yes, General. Her Majesty the Empress specially sent me to inform you."
He Jin suddenly stood up from the armchair: "Men, quickly change your clothes and prepare the carriage... no, prepare the horses!"
He Jin's face showed an excited expression.
Liu Bian's disappearance meant that the He family had no chance of vying for the throne.
Fortunately, the Empress was carrying the Emperor's child.
As long as this heir is a prince, the He family still has a glimmer of hope.
A moment later, He Jin dressed in his robes, took a riding whip, and walked out of the tent.
Warhorses were already prepared outside the tent.
In addition, there were dozens of armored cavalry guards.
He Jin, impatient and disregarding the attendants behind him, instructed the guards beside the tent: "Send someone to inform my brother immediately."
After saying that, he couldn't wait to spur his horse and gallop out of the camp.
Dozens of personal guard cavalry followed closely behind.
He Jin's Northern Army camp was only a dozen miles away from the south gate of Luoyang. Before long, He Jin and his party arrived outside Pingcheng Gate.
At this time, there was no one on the drawbridge over the moat leading to Pingcheng Gate.
Even the usually crowded city gates were deserted.
"General, something seems... amiss."
One of the captains standing beside He Jin spoke up.
At this moment, He Jin had already ridden his horse onto the drawbridge over the moat.
Hearing the captain beside him remind him, He Jin was slightly taken aback.
Why is it that no one has entered the city at this hour?
That does seem a bit strange.
Instinctively, He Jin raised his head and looked up at the city walls above him.
On the windless city wall, the battle flag hung limply on the flagpole, and there wasn't a single soldier in the middle of the battlements.
"what?"
He Jin frowned in surprise.
Why isn't there even a single soldier guarding the city?
Moreover, there are usually soldiers guarding the city gates, so why are there not a single soldier here now?
Just as He Jin was wondering what was going on, a large number of soldiers suddenly stood up from behind the battlements, all holding bows and arrows and aiming down.
"By imperial decree, He Shi has deceived the emperor and deserves to die ten thousand times over. Her entire family shall be executed!"
A familiar voice reached He Jin's ears.
Huangfu Song, clad in armor, emerged from the city wall with one hand on the sword at his waist.
He Jin was greatly alarmed.
"Huangfu Yizhen, how dare you...!"
"Fire arrows!"
Before He Jin could finish speaking, Huangfu Song on the city wall had already lowered his raised arm.
In an instant, hundreds of sharp swords rained down from the city walls.
He Jin hurriedly turned his horse around, trying to escape.
However, at such close range, He Jin was not even wearing armor, and in an instant, several arrows pierced through his chest and the warhorse beneath him.
As for the personal guards who came with He Jin, they were in a better position because they were wearing armor.
But before they could escape, they heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the direction they had come from.
The leader of the riders was none other than Zhu Jun.
"Slay them all, leave no one alive!"
Zhu Jun, on horseback, gave the order, and hundreds of riders behind him charged straight toward Pingcheng Gate.
Not long after.
The battle ended, leaving only bloodstains on the ground and arrows stuck in the drawbridge.
He Jin, lying in a pool of blood, kept spitting out blood foam from his mouth.
Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun approached He Jin and looked down at him.
With disbelief in his eyes, He Jin reached out his hand, seemingly trying to grab something.
However, Zhu Jun slowly drew the long sword from his waist.
As you raise your arms, then lower them.
puff!
Blood stained Zhu Jun's combat boots.
"Humph."
Zhu Jun snorted coldly and bent down to take He Jin's head in his hand.
.............
Several days later, in Hanoi County.
A horse-drawn carriage is slowly traveling from Huai County towards Wude County.
The carriage was small, and it was pulled by an inconspicuous old horse.
A young girl dressed as a maid was sitting in the carriage.
Two guards stood on foot on either side of the carriage.
It looks like an ordinary wealthy family traveling together.
Two women could be seen through the occasionally opened side windows.
Inside the carriage, He Lingsi held her protruding belly with one hand, her face showing worry and exhaustion.
He Lingman, standing next to He Lingsi, looked similarly haggard, her beautiful eyes filled with exhaustion.
Neither of the sisters expected things to turn out this way.
"Sister, do you think... we can make it to Liangzhou alive?" He Lingsi asked worriedly.
He Lingman pursed her red lips and nodded: "Yes, he definitely will. If he knew, he would definitely come to save us."
outside the car.
Hong Chan bit her lip tightly.
Although she successfully escaped Luoyang and crossed the Yellow River, Hongchan's heart was far from calm and relaxed.
She originally intended to take the Pingjin Ferry, but both Pingjin Ferry and Mengjin Ferry were blocked.
This proves that the imperial court is determined to capture the two people sitting in the carriage behind her.
In that case, Duan Liuqing is in even greater danger.
"Sister, you must be safe and sound."
Hongchan clutched the hem of her clothes tightly and prayed softly.
P.S.: I saw someone in the book review section asking about DY. The author's Douyin name is: Zen Chan Chan.
DY doesn't have any jokes about writing; it's all about the author's daily life, hehe!
While the author may not be the best writer, no author on the entire internet is as handsome as this one. Feel free to follow and urge for more updates!
