() It was another battle without any suspense. The resistance of these people was not even comparable to that of the Xiliang sergeants just now. Ma Chao and the others completely defeated them with just one attack, and then they just had to clean up the mess.

In less than half an hour, about fifty people, including Dong Huang, were knocked to the ground, and a knife was put at Dong Huang's throat.

At this time, Dong Huang no longer had the arrogance and arrogance of the past, his face was even more pale, and his body was trembling slightly, but not because of anger, but because of fear. He could clearly feel the pinch coming from his throat.

The coldness emanating from the steel knife seemed to make it easy for the blade to rip his throat open and send him to his death with just a slight exertion of the hand holding the knife.

In this way, Dong Huang was completely honest. When he was brought to Ma Yue, he didn't say anything. He just looked at him with frightened eyes, obviously worried that Ma Yue would really let someone kill him.

But Ma Yue did not call for action as he feared. Instead, he stared at Dong Huang coldly and said after a long while: "Now you know how stupid and incompetent you are?"

"I..." Dong Huang struggled to say a word, but then closed his mouth again. There was a knife across his throat. As long as he spoke, the cold feeling would appear again, which made him dare not speak.

.

Ma Yue smiled calmly, waved his hand to let go of Dong Huang, and then shook his head and said: "You are too afraid of death, so even with an uncle like Dong Zhuo, it is difficult to achieve anything big. Dong Huang, you have always wanted to

You want to seek revenge from me, but you don’t know that in my eyes, you are no match at all because you are not worthy.”

Hearing that Ma Yue despised him so much, Dong Huang was a little angry at first, but then calmed down. Isn't this just right? If he didn't treat himself as an enemy, then obviously he could let him go this time. So Dong Huang

Then he said: "Since you don't regard me as a rival, are you willing to let me go?"

"Let you go? No, you are still useful to me now, and I won't let you go." Ma Yue shook his head: "But as long as you are willing to stay here obediently, I can guarantee that you will not be in trouble for the time being.

For you."

"You want me to stay?" Dong Huang asked with some fear, and then sneered again: "This matter will soon reach my uncle's ears. If I can't go back,

Are you afraid that he will come to you to ask for someone else? Aren't you afraid that my uncle will blame you for this? Don't forget that now you are suspected by my uncle. If you treat me like this again, I'm afraid it will make you even more angry.

He is dissatisfied with you."

Hearing the threat in his words, Ma Yue laughed even more, but soon his smile faded again, and he just said softly: "I just want him to know this, it's best

He came to look for me personally because of you!" With a wave of his hand, he motioned for everyone to take Dong Huang into custody.

When he was pushed into the door, a thought suddenly flashed through Dong Huang's mind: "What did he mean by this? Why did he have no respect or fear at all when I mentioned my uncle? He said that this was the result he wanted.

...Does he want to..." Thinking of this, his already pale face turned even paler, and he almost couldn't believe his guess.

Over there, Ma Yue was about to go back, when suddenly a man hurried over: "Brother Zhong Ling, what are you planning? Why are you so reckless that you detained Dong Huang?" But it was Jia Xu who got the news.

Then he rushed over and happened to see Dong Huang being brought in. He asked strangely.

"It turns out that Brother Wen Ruo is here. If you have anything to say, come in first." Ma Yue was not in a hurry. He just smiled, took Jia Xu's hand and walked through the door. The two quickly came to the front hall and sat down.

At this time, Jia Xu asked anxiously: "What is going on? Although you have long wanted to replace Dong Zhuo, and the situation in the city is now very favorable to you, I am afraid that now is not the time to fall out with Dong Zhuo.

But you captured Dong Huang, isn't this telling Dong Zhuo that you are going to attack him?"

Facing Jia Xu's eager cross-examination, Ma Yue seemed to be very relaxed. After pouring water for both of them, he smiled and said: "Because the incident happened suddenly, I didn't have time to send you the news. I have already planned to take action on this."

Already."

"What?" Jia Xu trembled and said worriedly: "Is this too hasty? The battle ahead has not started yet. If you take action now, I'm afraid the Xiliang army will turn back soon.

I'm afraid your situation will not be very good then..."

"Of course I know this, but my intention is to use the Xiliang Army for my own use. If we wait until the battle starts in the front before we start, I'm afraid the blow to the Xiliang Army will be huge. And in the battle on the battlefield, once something happens at the rear,

I'm afraid that the army will inevitably suffer a big defeat, and the men and horses will be severely damaged. This is not what I want to see. So I think now is a good time to take action.

"In addition, I don't plan to lead the attack myself this time. Lu Bu and others will take action against Dong Zhuo. So even if the army in front hears the news and turns back, I will not become their enemy."

"It turns out that you have considered everything, so I feel relieved. But since you have such a plan, why didn't you inform me earlier?" Jia Xu asked with some confusion.

"No, this is not my plan, but something that happened suddenly." Ma Yue shook his head and said: "I just took advantage of the situation. Then Dong Huang suddenly came to the door at this time, he was the one who could pull Dong Zhuo from him.

Lu Bu and the courtiers would certainly not let go of such an excellent opportunity to take action from that solid fortress-like mansion."

"Oh?" After thinking about it for a while, Jia Xu, who had calmed down, felt that this was indeed a good opportunity, but he still had one last concern: "Will those people really seize this fleeting opportunity?"

"Well... I'm more than 50% sure, I guess they won't let me down."

????????????

At this time, in Wang Yun's mansion, Lu Bu and he both had serious faces and were discussing the major event in front of them. Wang Yun frowned and said: "Is this Ma Yue really trustworthy? He didn't have any warning beforehand.

He asked us to send out men and horses to ambush him halfway up the road. Can this really eliminate Dong Zhuo?"

Although Lu Bu was a little hesitant, he still said: "I believe in Ma Zhongling's judgment. Now that he has captured Dong Huang, it is obvious that he has fallen out with Dong Zhuo. As long as we move out as soon as possible, we will definitely be able to ambush Dong Zhuo."

"Is this person really trustworthy? Don't forget that he is also from Xiliang."

"Although he is also from Xiliang, he is a Xiliang person who wants to replace Dong Zhuo, so he will not openly plot against Dong Zhuo, but in fact he is against us." Lu Bu said without any doubt: "

Wang Situ, the opportunity is right in front of you now, it depends on whether you have the courage to take this gamble. If it succeeds, you will be a great hero of the imperial court from now on, and your reputation will last forever!"

"This..." To be honest, when Lu Bu said this, Wang Yun was naturally very moved, but he still had concerns. After all, this matter was related to the life and death of court officials, because once the matter failed, they and

It is impossible for their families to even think about the puppet-like life in front of them. Death is bound to be waiting for them.

After hesitating for a long time, Wang Yun looked at Lu Bu: "Will General Lu take action this time?"

Lu Bu understood the meaning of his words. If he took action, he would naturally be able to gain the trust of these people. So he nodded and said: "Of course! But because the matter is serious and Dong Zhuo has already noticed it, I can use it."

We only have two to three hundred trusted people, so we need your full help."

"In that case, I'm going to risk it all!" Wang Yun finally made up his mind. Instead of stalling like this, it's better to give it a try! He immediately said: "I'll gather the available people under my command, and then give them to others.

Those officials who sent a message to the imperial court said that Dong Zhuo must be eradicated this time!"

"Okay, then the general will go back and prepare. I think Dong Zhuo will react between dusk and dark. We must seize the time to bring the men and horses over. Time is not waiting for us!" After saying that, Lu Bu hurriedly handed over his hand.

And left. Wang Yun immediately called his confidants and gave instructions.

At dusk, Chang'an City, which seemed to be as peaceful as usual, suddenly became undercurrent. Many officials' houses, which had been keeping to themselves since arriving in Chang'an City and rarely opened their doors, suddenly opened, revealing many mysterious people.

People came out one after another from there. These people came out of different mansions, but rushed to the same place - Dingding Street, the only road leading to Ma Yue's house.

On the other hand, the soldiers in the city who were supposed to monitor them and report any changes as soon as possible seemed to be deaf and blind this time. No one reported these changes to Dong Zhuo.

At the same time, Dong Zhuo, who was in the house, finally learned that Ma Yue had detained his nephew Dong Huang. This made him extremely unhappy: "What does Ma Zhongling want to do? Even if Dong Huang went too far

, he shouldn’t act like this, otherwise what will others think of me? Go and ask him to let me go!”

Dong Zhuo originally thought that this was something he could solve with just one sentence, but half an hour later, the confidant who went to deliver the message came back with an embarrassed look on his face: "Lord, that Ma Yue won't let him go no matter what he says." He said

Mr. Dong has gone too far this time, I only ask my lord to give him justice."

"Hmph, useless thing!" Dong Zhuo cursed angrily, and then narrowed his eyes: "It seems that Ma Yue did this intentionally. Obviously he was also very dissatisfied with a certain person who refused to use him before, so

An excuse to attack. Huh, he is so self-righteous that he actually wants to use this trick to force Yu X! I will go to him to get Huang'er back and see what else he can do!"

Having made up his mind, Dong Zhuo summoned his personal guards, and under the protection of thousands of people, went out to Ma Yue's house. But he didn't know that a big net was waiting not far away.
