Chapter 122 Kill Dong Zhuo and retire after success [Subscribe]

Clang!

Dian Wei crossed his two halberds and attacked the armored guards.

Dark patterns flow on the armor of the Iron Guards.

The hidden patterns of the eight people intertwined like a battle formation, protecting Dong Zhuo in the center and blocking Dian Wei.

These eight iron armor formation diagrams are a supreme military treasure and are indestructible.

It was also the protective shield that Dong Zhuo always kept with him, helping him to resist many life-and-death assassinations.

At this time, the eight men appeared in an armored formation. Zhao Yun's spear followed closely behind, attacking the same person as Dian Wei.

The eight of them are a unit, so let's break them up a little, focus on one person, and attack hard!

Dian Wei and Zhao Yun had never cooperated before, but once they started fighting, it was as if they had rehearsed it thousands of times beforehand, with one advancing while the other retreating.

The tip of Zhao Yun's spear split into thousands of stars, and then converged into a point.

A flash of lightning suddenly appeared from the front end of the silver spear and pierced the armored guard.

In the space of a breath, Dian Wei used his double halberds to attack dozens of times, slashing at the armored guards again and again, with each wave of power rising higher and higher.

When the power of Dian Wei and Zhao Zilong is combined, it acts on an armored guard.

——Crack!
The armor on the Iron Armored Guards began to crack, and the patterns on the formation began to break.

The armored guard fell to the ground without even a scream.

The person in the armor was hit by the powerful force, his bones were broken, and wisps of blood mist oozed out of his pores.

Dong Zhuo was shocked.

These two generals broke through the protective formation formed by the eight armored guards!

The Eight-Armored Formation was destroyed just like that!

Dian Wei lowered his shoulders and swung his double halberds left and right.

The other two armored guards lost their balance and moved sideways.

Zhao Yun took the opportunity to push forward, his spear was like a dragon, even Dong Zhuo's consciousness seemed to be pierced!
In the blink of an eye, a tiger roar sounded from the shadow behind Dong Zhuo.

His momentum rose, as if there was an imaginary shadow of a vicious tiger, which pounced and blocked Zhao Zilong's spear.

That was the military power that Dong Zhuo, as the commander of the Liangzhou Army, had used to plunder the country's destiny, control the emperor, and achieve multiple breakthroughs in the past year.

At this moment, Dong Zhuo managed to break free from Zhao Yun's spear.

His face was grim and he was eager to escape.

He treated the fort as his lair, and there were mechanisms inside the fort that could save his life.

Dong Zhuo stretched out his hand and pressed down the low seat in front of him, trying to activate the mechanism.

But Zhao Yun's spear was faster and followed him like a shadow.

On the other side, Dian Wei’s double halberds were like spinning wheels, with the sun and the moon shining together.

Several armored guards were hit by the large double halberds, and the sound of breaking bones and flesh was as dense as rain.

Dong Zhuo's hand was already on the low mat.

As long as the mechanism is triggered, the ground will sink and sink him into a safe secret room.

But just as Dong Zhuo touched the low seat, Zhao Yun's silver spear arrived.

He tried to dodge helplessly, but with a bang, Dian Wei rushed over and hit Dong Zhuo hard with the Hun Tian Ji.

puff!
Dong Zhuo's shoulder blade was broken and he was seriously injured.

Facing generals of the same level as Dian Wei and Zhao Yun, Dong Zhuo could only rely on life-saving measures to resist two or three attacks, which was already his limit.

"Somebody come!"

Dong Zhuo shouted loudly, trying to call on the soldiers outside the palace to rescue him.

But at this time, there were cries of killing outside the palace, and some people were fighting with Dong Zhuo's troops.

However, his defense was broken by Dian Wei and Zhao Yun together. His fat body swayed and he fell to the ground like a mountain of flesh, losing the ability to resist.

From Dian Wei and Zhao Yun's attacks, both sides moved swiftly and swiftly, in just three or four breaths.

The outcome has been decided.

Dong Zhuo sat on the ground, his chest, mouth corners, and shoulder blades were all covered in blood.

He stared at Cao Cao and said in a hoarse voice: "You came to Chang'an just to kill me?"

Cao Cao drew out the Spring and Autumn bronze sword from his waist and walked over.

Dian Wei put the large double halberds on his back, lifted Dong Zhuo with one hand, grabbed his hair and tilted his neck up.

"Dong Zhuo, you have committed countless evil deeds. You deserve to die."

Cao Cao placed his sword on Dong Zhuo's thick neck.

"If you kill me, you won't be able to leave Meiwu... cough cough..."

The expression on Dong Zhuo's face turned into fear.

Cao Cao's sword cut his neck without hesitation.

Dong Zhuo could almost hear the sound of his skin and flesh, and even his larynx being cut.

The sword moved very slowly, taking away Dong Zhuo's life bit by bit.

"It's such a good deal..."

The fear, anger, and ferocity on Dong Zhuo's face...all disappeared from him as the blood splattered and his larynx was cut.

His fat body fell to the ground, his eyes wide open, and he was dead!
[You killed Dong Zhuo, and the reputation you gained is being summarized in a special stage... You have obtained a new direction for the 04th sequence tomb. You have obtained part of the guide map for the tomb.]

[Because of killing Dong Zhuo, you will gain the reputation and luck admired by the people of the world]

[Chang'an Meiwu is the location of the previous 'pointing'. Please take away the object indicated by the pointing]

One of the reasons why Cao Cao came to Chang'an was related to the direction obtained when Caoying’s power was upgraded last time.

That direction is Chang'an, Dong Zhuo's Meiwu.

Entry annotation: This direction is a fixed direction given for the continued improvement of Caoying.

So Cao Cao, Wang Yun and Cai Yong joined forces to choose the fortress as the place to kill Dong Zhuo.

Cao Cao had already made arrangements before this.

Jia Xu and Xu Chu never showed up, which was a backup plan he had set for himself.

At this time, Cao Cao killed Dong Zhuo.

Dian Wei picked up Dong Zhuo's body and walked out.

Outside the palace, two armies were fighting.

Dong Zhuo highly regarded the defensive capabilities of this fortress.

No matter how good a fortress is, it can only be effective if it is controlled by people.

Dong Zhuo was in charge of government affairs, and the way he maintained his power was to hold on to military power.

If he wanted to convey orders, he had to rely on Yuan Wei's Shangshutai, and if he wanted to manage the government, he had to rely on Wang Yun, Cai Yong and others. When these people secretly united and wanted to conceal his actions, they had many opportunities.

Dong Zhuo's direct followers were fighting against Lu Bu's rebellion outside the fortress.

He sent his younger brother Dong Min, as well as generals such as Xu Rong, Li Jue, and Guo Si to guard the pass around Chang'an to prevent Chang'an from being attacked in the same way as Luoyang.

For a man like Dong Zhuo, who would truly work for him except his own soldiers?

In fact, some of his troops who were guarding the fort had been secretly bribed by Wang Yun.

So there was also fighting inside the fort, and people were fighting everywhere.

Even if Cao Cao had not come to Chang'an, the civil service group headed by Wang Yun was secretly united and planned to plot to get rid of Dong Zhuo.

Cao Cao was taking advantage of the opportunity, and Wang Yun was also relying on Cao Cao's power.

The fundamental reason for Dong Zhuo's death was that he had no civil servants to manage the government and had to rely on Wang Yun and others, which doomed him to failure.

Cao Cao was just taking advantage of the situation and moving the time forward.

Dian Wei shouted: "Dong Zhuo is dead!"

This loud shout from Dian Wei could be heard by half of Chang'an.

When his voice fell, Chang'an suddenly fell into silence.

boom!
Dong Zhuo's fat body was thrown high up by Dian Wei and fell outside the main gate of Meiwu, a bloody mess.

Historical records say that when Dong Zhuo was stabbed to death by Lu Bu, only the two armored soldiers around him fought to the death to protect him.

When he was killed, no one thought of avenging him.

His elderly mother knelt in front of the fort, begging the angry people for forgiveness and to spare the Dong family, but she was trampled to death by the crowd.

Dong Zhuo's body was set on fire by someone who smeared grease on his abdomen.

Because it was too fat, it took two or three days to burn completely.

At that time, the whole Chang'an people cheered for his death.

Some people took to the streets beating gongs and drums.

When the news spread, the whole world rejoiced!
What is happening before our eyes is like history repeating itself.

Dong Zhuo's body fell to the ground, and the soldiers fighting inside and outside the fort were quiet for a moment, and then exploded.

The generals of the Liangzhou troops were in a state of panic because they realized they would be liquidated.

They each act independently, without any subordinate relationship, and no longer have a unified leader.

However, a large number of Liangzhou troops were not in the city at that time, had not received the news, and had no time to respond.

Chang'an was in unimaginable chaos on that day.

Some Liangzhou generals led their troops to withdraw and returned directly to Liangzhou. Others tried to plunder before leaving, causing chaos everywhere.

Wang Yun stepped forward and joined forces with Lu Bu, together with the imperial guards and other troops that had been connected before, to suppress the unrest.

By the afternoon, the situation had eased somewhat, and Wang Yun suddenly remembered that Cao Cao had not made any move since he killed Dong Zhuo.

Ever since Dian Wei threw Dong Zhuo's body outside Meiwu, Cao Cao has never appeared again.

Where did he go?

It seems that Cao Cao has never left the main hall of the fortress?

Wang Yun's heart moved slightly, and he hurriedly led his men back to the fort.

At this time, the fortress looked like it had been looted and was in chaos.

Dong Zhuo's body was still at the entrance of the fortress. It had been set on fire and a large hole had been burned in his abdomen, but only a human shape could be barely seen.

Wang Yun, followed by some people, entered the main hall of the fortress.

It was he who helped Dong Zhuo find the craftsmen who built the fortress.

Although Dong Zhuo later killed all the craftsmen to keep it secret.

But Wang Yun was one of the few people who knew quite well about this fortress.

He came to the low mat where Dong Zhuo had died and wanted to activate the mechanism to protect himself.

Wang Yun observed for a moment and pushed hard.

The low mat sank and the ground shifted sideways, revealing a hidden underground entrance.

This is the means Dong Zhuo uses to save his life in times of crisis, so it is very simple to open. You must be fast enough to push the low seat and it will appear.

When Wang Yun saw the entrance, he suddenly understood why Cao Cao came to Chang'an in person and chose the fortress as the place to kill Dong Zhuo.

During the period when Dong Zhuo was in power, he plundered countless wealth.

He also moved the capital from Luoyang, and most of the things accumulated by the Han Dynasty were burned.

But a few extremely precious artifacts, ancient scrolls, treasures, and even the spoils from looting all the tombs around Luoyang were all taken for themselves.

These things represent an unimaginable amount of wealth.

Dong Zhuo built a secret vault in Meiwu, right under Meiwu, to store the treasures he gained from ruling the world.

This wealth, which consists of the remnants of the Han Dynasty's treasury and loot from the tombs of successive emperors, includes several very special items.

Wang Yun knew something about it, and this underground entrance in front of him... he personally led his men in.

Not long after walking down the stairs, we saw many mechanisms with signs of destruction.

At the end, a cast iron gate was also opened.

There was indeed a secret room under Meiwu where Dong Zhuo stored his things.

After Wang Yun came in, he found a tomb-robbing hole.

Jia Xu and Xu Chu never showed up, but they were secretly preparing with Ling Jin. They treated Dong Zhuo's secret room in Meiwu as a tomb and took away the things by means of tomb robbing.

So Cao Cao chose to take action in this fortress.

Even if Dong Zhuo successfully opened the mechanism and hid in the secret room, he would still die.

Xu Chu was waiting for him in the basement of the fortress.

This secret passage was also Cao Cao's escape route from the fortress.

Why was Cao Cao able to make such accurate arrangements?
Wang Yun couldn't figure it out because it was the direction of the entry that told Cao Cao.

Cao Cao came to Chang'an, ostensibly to cooperate with Wang Yun to kill Dong Zhuo.

In fact, even Wang Yun was on guard.

He was just following his own plan, going to the location given by the entry to take away Dong Zhuo's accumulation, kill Dong Zhuo, and gain huge reputation.

Retire after success without stopping.

After this battle, Dong Zhuo died and the world entered a new stage.

Cao Cao will not come to Chang'an easily again.

The war between Yanzhou and the surrounding states and counties is still in full swing, and they are waiting for him to return and take command!
Some people in Chang'an were also taken away by Cao Cao...
