Chapter 232 - Die Before You Apprentice - Guo(2/2)
Lord! Gao Shun is afraid that he can no longer run on the battlefield with you. It’s really a pity.
Chang'an.
After nearly two years of war, in the fourth year of Jian'an (191), Ma Yue finally pacified the grasslands and the Western Regions of the northern desert, and completely placed thousands of miles of the country outside the border and dozens of barbarians under his iron fist rule. What made Ma Yue even more gratified was that Ma Chao also grew from an ignorant young man to an outstanding commander.
After conquering the outside of the frontier, Ma Yue led the army back to Liangzhou at night. When he arrived in Long County, he realized that Guo Tu had reoccupied Chang'an, so he rushed to Chang'an without stopping, but Ma Yue was still one step late. Before he arrived in Chang'an, Guo Tu and Gao had already led the army to fight.
With just this difference, Ma Butcher never met Guo Tu for the last time.
What's even more unfortunate is that Li Ru finally changed into a wise new lord, but before he could show his talent, his life came to an end quickly. Things in the world were impermanent, and life was always full of such accidents. Many famous generals often died at the hands of unknown people, and many wise men had all the calculations, but in the end they could never escape the simplest calculations.
Ma Yue entered Chang'an City surrounded by Jia Xu, Dian Wei, Ma Teng, Ma Chao and others. Before he could reach Gaoshun's official residence, a deputy general who stayed in Chang'an came forward.
"Where is Gao Shun?"
"Report to the lord, General Gao Shun has led a large army to attack Hangu Pass."
"Well, attack Hangu Pass?" Jia Xu's face changed and he said anxiously, "My lord is not good, so he is afraid that he is eager to make contributions and wants to take advantage of the empty Luoyang army to attack Luoyang."
"Attack Luoyang?" Ma Yue frowned and said in a deep voice, "Although Luoyang has empty troops, Liu Bei is no better than Dong Zhuo. He is very respectful to the emperor and the empress dowager. It is far from the time when heaven is angry and people are resentful, and gods and people are angry. At this time, the uprising of the attack on Liu Bei can only lead to unanimous condemnation from the princes of the world."
Jia Xu asked the deputy general anxiously, "How many days have the army been on the expedition?"
"It's been three days."
"There may be news."
“No news yet.”
"Report..."
As soon as the deputy general finished speaking, a shrill howling sounded in the direction of the city gate. Then, the rapid sound of horse hooves shattered the quiet long street. Ma Yue and others looked back suddenly and saw a fast horse galloping towards him. The knight was slid a triangular flag behind his shoulders, flirting in the wind.
"Report~~Hanguguan urgent report~~"
When Ma Yue saw the messenger's expression, his heart suddenly sank. He stopped the horse and shouted sternly: "Tell me!"
The messenger instinctively pulled the reins of the horse. When he saw clearly that the person blocking the road was horse leaping, he rolled off his horse in a panic and said sadly: "General, it's not good, something big happened."
