Three Kingdoms: I will return it ten thousand times, my lord, I will never keep it for myself

Deep in the imperial city, the drums of war have not stopped, the smoke of gunpowder is everywhere, and a life-and-death contest is in full swing.

The elite guards under the command of the General's Mansion are like tigers descending from the mountains, pressing forward step by step, and their momentum is unstoppable. On the other hand, the eunuchs who have hastily responded to the battle, although they are barely supported by Zhang Rang's encouragement, are like the fallen leaves in the autumn wind, shaky and ready to fall.

The blood on the ground has gathered into streams.

No matter how Zhang Rang continues to cheer and cheer for everyone, these eunuchs who have just been armed are no match for these professional soldiers.

"Stop! Stop them for me! No retreat!" Zhang Rang's voice penetrated the hustle and bustle of the battlefield, but it could not hide the sadness of being powerless to save the situation.

Although the eunuchs fought hard, facing the well-trained and well-equipped guards, their resistance seemed so pale and powerless. Every charge was like a moth flying into a flame, tragic and desperate.

Wandering on the edge of the abyss of despair, Zhang Rang finally made a decision and divided the remaining ten eunuchs into two.

One team relied on the terrain of the palace to hold back the guards of the general's mansion; while the other team was shouldering a heavier mission. They needed to take the little emperor and the empress dowager and escape from the palace. As long as the emperor and the empress dowager were in their hands, they still had a chance.

At this moment, inside the palace, the flames soared into the sky, reflecting half of the sky red, like a doomsday scene, swallowing up the former glory and tranquility. The raging flames not only burned the palaces and pavilions, but also incited the fanaticism and hatred in people's hearts.

"Charge! We swear to root out these eunuchs who are harming the country and the people, leaving no one alive!"

Yuan Shao's roar penetrated the raging fire, and his voice was mixed with the fighting spirit and unyielding spirit ignited by the flames. Under his command, the warriors of the General's Mansion rushed towards the panicked eunuchs like a raging wave, with the cold light of the sharp blades in their hands flashing. Every swing was accompanied by the disappearance of life, and the breath of blood and revenge filled every corner.

Inside the palace, chaos was rampant, like a small boat in a storm, swaying. The elite guards of the General's Mansion have now turned into bloodthirsty blades, with only scarlet in their eyes. Wherever they passed, eunuchs, young and old, became dead souls under the knife, and none of them were spared. This is not only a reckoning of power, but also a feast of wild beasts out of control, tearing the tranquility and order of the past into pieces.

People's hearts are floating, and greed is surging like an undercurrent. In this chaos, some people were short-sighted and blinded by desire, and they coveted the rare treasures in the palace. The innocent palace maids hiding in the shadows were not spared and became pawns in the hands of some soldiers. Their dignity and innocence were trampled.

At this time, He Miao was also leading the Imperial Guards, wearing armor and holding a long sword, shuttling through the bloody battlefield. Every time he swung his sword, the eunuchs wailed and fell.

The conspiracy of the Ten Eunuchs, like a chronic poison, gradually eroded He Miao's vigilance. Their frequent banquets were nothing more than gentle traps. With superficial friendship and respect, the Ten Eunuchs collected more than a dozen beauties in the palace to paralyze He Miao.

He Miao was drunk and lying in the flowers every day. When He Jin entered the palace, Zhao Zhong happened to bring a beautiful woman for him to enjoy.

Otherwise, the Ten Eunuchs would not have been able to kill He Jin so easily in the palace.

When He Miao learned that his brother died at the hands of the Ten Eunuchs, he was furious. During this period, He Jin and Empress Dowager He had supported him a lot, and he had enjoyed a long period of wealth and glory.

Now that his brother was killed, he would of course avenge him.

At this time, the Imperial Guards and the guards of the General's Mansion were mixed together, and it was even more chaotic.

In addition, the fire that started at some point in time ignited everyone's negative emotions in an instant. Killing, looting, and debauchery, the palace has now become a purgatory on earth.

At that moment when the war was raging and the situation was changing rapidly, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao stood at the center of the chaos, looking at the out-of-control situation in front of them, with mixed feelings in their hearts.

Now that the Ten Eunuchs have been killed, it is disrespectful for them to plunder the palace so wantonly.

Moreover, the sudden rise of the army led by He Miao is like a boulder thrown into still water, stirring up waves and making the situation even more chaotic.

Cao Cao knew that a head-on confrontation was not the best strategy. After all, blocking someone's wealth was like killing their parents.

If he forcibly stopped everyone, he would probably be drowned by the angry crowd the next moment.

He took a deep breath, his eyes were sharp, and his voice penetrated the hustle and bustle, with a force that could not be ignored: "My fellow comrades, have you ever thought about how to have more wealth in this chaotic world and let your family enjoy peace and tranquility?"

His words were like a stream of clear water, instantly attracting the attention of the surrounding soldiers.. Cao Cao continued: "The Ten Eunuchs have been selling official positions and embezzling money for many years. The accumulated wealth is enough to make people excited. Now, they are like grasshoppers in autumn, and they can't jump for a long time. Brothers, don't you want to take this ill-gotten wealth into your pocket?"

While speaking, Cao Cao cleverly guided the emotions of the soldiers and directly shifted the target of plunder.

"Go! In the name of justice, go after the wealth that should belong to us, so that every drop of sweat will not be in vain, and every sacrifice will be rewarded!"

As his words fell, a trace of greed burned in the eyes of the soldiers again.

"Follow the general's order!!!"

The soldiers on the side heard the words and began to turn their guns around, leaving the palace and killing the mansions of the Ten Eunuchs.

After all, everyone knows that the Ten Eunuchs participated in selling official positions, and they may have accumulated huge wealth over the years. If they are really found by them, they may not worry about food and drink for the rest of their lives.

Cao Cao looked at the devastated palace and breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, these hell kings were sent away.

…

At this time, the palace was already filled with smoke. Zhang Rang, one of the Ten Eunuchs, led the remaining eunuchs, robbed the queen mother, the little emperor, and the Prince of Chenliu and his party, and fled Luoyang.

In an instant, the inside and outside of the imperial city were swept by an undercurrent of uneasiness, and people were panic-stricken, as if the sign of the sky falling and the earth collapsing had quietly arrived.

The ministers looked at each other, their eyes full of fear and worry about the unknown fate. The shadow of He Jin's death had not yet dissipated, and Zhang Rang, the treacherous man, was so bold and reckless that he took the emperor hostage and fled. This move was tantamount to cutting a knife in the heart of the empire.

Many nobles took their own guards and hurried out of the city to defend the emperor. No matter what, they had to bring the little emperor back.

It happened that the light cavalry led by Dong Zhuo happened to arrive near Luoyang at this time.

And there are scouts reporting that they have discovered the location of the little emperor.
