Chapter 651 Return to Luoyang

"General, please get on board the ship with your brothers." Gao Chong asked for instructions.

"good!"

Liu Ye turned around and ordered: "All troops on board!"

Dozens of ships and boats gradually approached Baima Port, but because they could not afford such a large army in one trip, Liu Ye, Jia Xu and more than 2,000 Xiliang elite soldiers boarded the ships first. Ma Chao and Ma Dai supervised the rest. The troops temporarily stayed in Hebei, waiting for Gao Chong to lead his army to respond.

"High Governor, the wind is favorable now." A naval officer with a tall nose and a burly physique reported to Gao Chonghui: "Our army will arrive at Mengjin Port tomorrow without any accident."

Mengjin Port is located to the north of Luoyang and is a ferry to the south of the Yellow River. It was Gao Chong who led the navy from Xuanwu Pond along the Luoshui River to the north of the Yellow River and came out of Mengjin Port.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Gao Chong smiled.

Liu Ye looked at the naval officer with admiration: "Bo'an, who is this?"

"General, this is a righteous man from Yangzhou who has come to join our army." Gao Chong said, "Xiu Mu, come forward and pay homage to the general."

"My Excellency, Zhu Huan, I have met the great general." The young officer came forward and clasped his fists. He looked at Liu Ye with an expression of admiration.

"Zhu Xiumu?" Liu Ye laughed and nodded: "He is indeed a young hero. He must serve our army well."

"It's natural."

After that, Liu Ye said nothing and closed his eyes to rest.

The whole journey went smoothly, and the distance from Baima Port to Mengjin Port was not far, so we arrived at Mengjin Port on the second day.

After landing, the inn had already prepared horses. Liu Ye and Jia Xu took more than a hundred horses and went ahead. After galloping for a while, they finally arrived at their destination.

Seeing the tall and majestic city wall, Liu Ye couldn't help but sigh.

"Alas, I finally saw Luoyang City again after not seeing each other for several years." Liu Ye looked up at the tall and majestic Luoyang City with its gates on three sides, and couldn't help but sigh.

Since Xu He led the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans to rebel against Yanzhou, Liu Ye has been leading troops to fight abroad. He first stationed in Puyang, then went north to Hebei to conquer Liyang and Yecheng. He did not return to Luoyang for nearly two years. After suddenly seeing the tall city walls of Luoyang, I naturally couldn't help but sigh.

"go in!"

However, Liu Ye quickly gathered his attention, roared loudly, and led more than a hundred cavalry into Luoyang City.

A guard at the city gate wiped his eyes hard and said in disbelief: "Did I see it wrong just now? It seems that the general is back?"

"The general is back? Are you mistaken?" Another guard denied: "Isn't the general still in Hebei? Besides, the general will definitely lead the army when he comes back. How can he come back by himself?"

"That's true." The guard nodded and said, "However, the man just now really looks like the general."

At this time, it was the Chancellor's desk.

"The general has arrived!"

Xun You, who was leaning on the desk and writing furiously, quickly raised his head when he heard the words. He heard heavy footsteps as dozens of people walked in surrounded by a gust of wind.

The leader was very popular, he was already in his prime, he was wearing armor, and he had a red cloak on his back. Who could he be if he wasn't Liu Ye? Surrounding Liu Ye are Jia Xu and other generals. They are also all outstanding people. Surrounding Liu Ye is like stars holding the moon, which makes him even more extraordinary.

"General?" Xun You suddenly became happy when he saw Liu Ye. His originally anxious expression was diluted a lot after seeing Liu Ye.

"Well, sit down." Liu Ye waved his hand and motioned for Xun You, Jia Xu and many other civil and military officials to sit down.

"Gongda, what happened?" Liu Ye asked: "How did His Majesty disappear? Can you determine where he is now?"

Xun You looked apologetic and held up his hands and said: "I didn't think carefully about this matter, which caused your Majesty, the Queen, the Queen Mother and others to escape. However, I have ordered a search in the city and found that Tang Mao, the head of the country, has also disappeared. I want to come up with this matter." It should be inseparable from Tang Mao."

"Tang Hao?" Liu Ye's eyes flashed coldly.

When Cao Cao kidnapped Emperor Xian, Fu Shou, the father of Empress Fu, was also the head of the state who planned the rebellion against Cao Cao. Unexpectedly, Tang Mao did the same thing.

"This Tang Mao seems to be honest and responsible on weekdays, but unexpectedly he is very courageous." Liu Ye sneered: "I can't blame you completely for this matter. It was my negligence."

"From now on, all the eunuchs and maids in the palace must be replaced by our own people, otherwise there will be a next time sooner or later."

Most of the maids and eunuchs in the palace were old people from the time of Emperor Ling. Since Liangzhou soldiers had been sent to guard Luoyang City, Liu Ye didn't pay much attention to this matter. Unexpectedly, it was because of this small oversight that Liu Bian fled. It will naturally be improved in the future.

"By the way, have you found out where the emperor, queen mother and others went?" Liu Ye asked.

"According to the intelligence, it seems that we have passed Hulao Pass." Xun You sighed: "At that time, someone thought that His Majesty was still in Luoyang City, so he just ordered the troops to block the twelve city gates, but did not block Hulao Pass in time."

"Leaving Hulao Pass in the east?" Liu Ye's eyes flashed: "So, are you going east to Liu Bei? Sun Ce? Or Cao Cao?"

"I'm afraid this matter is not simple. It is very likely that the princes are secretly supporting it." Jia Xu suddenly said.

"Oh?" Liu Ye became interested: "Wen He, you analyze it."

"Your Majesty is only more than ten years old and has not yet been crowned. Where does he have his own ideas? And although Tang Hao is a prince, he was just a county guard before. I'm afraid they don't have much courage. But..." Jia Xu said slowly: "What if? Is there a local prince who chooses to support Your Majesty?"

"The general belongs to the clan and holds a large number of troops. He drove away Dong Zhuo, so your majesty had to choose the general. But if there is a second person in the world who chooses to support your majesty, then your majesty will not be willing to give up his power."

Jia Xu spoke without hesitation, but the people in the hall did not say anything. It did not mean that they were not loyal to the Han Dynasty. Rather, they all belong to Liu Ye's confidants and have formed a huge interest group around Liu Ye. Liu Bian is dispensable to them.

Only Xun You couldn't help but frown, but still didn't say anything.

"In this case, Cao Cao will also serve the emperor as a slave." Liu Ye sighed and shook his head.

"Yes, our army must take countermeasures, otherwise our army will be passive in terms of justice." Jia Xu nodded.

"There is no need to worry for now." Liu Ye waved his hand: "Let's wait and see where His Majesty will appear."

"Right?" Liu Ye suddenly asked Xun You, "Is King Chenliu staying?"

"Yes, General." Xun You replied.
