Chapter 423

"I will send you a batch every three days, how about that?"

Guo Si was still calculating in his heart at this time.

As long as he doesn't tell anyone about the money from selling these ancient books, no one will know.

He can completely swallow them all and keep them for himself.

If he hands them over to Dong Zhuo, the gold and silver treasures dug out are enough.

"Can! Then the matter is settled! Please, General, be as quick as possible; after all, we have to move to Chang'an later, and our firm also needs time to prepare for the move."

Jia Yi immediately nodded and agreed.

"Haha! Naturally!"

Guo Si laughed loudly upon hearing this, waved his hand and said: "Don't worry! The matter of moving to Chang'an is on me! If there are any problems, you can send someone to find me, and I will solve them for you!"

Making money, right! It's not shameful.

Convenience for others is convenience for oneself.

"Haha! Then thank you in advance, General Guo!"

Jia Yi also smiled and bowed to thank him.

Soon, as time passed, batches of ancient books dug from the graves were secretly sent by Guo Si to a firm of the Su Family Firm in Luoyang.

Of course, this firm did not use the name of the Su Family Firm.

After all, Su Xuan is now a member of the warlord alliance, and Dong Zhuo hates Su Xuan to the bone.

If he used the name of the Su Family Firm, Guo Si would be the first to raid the firm.

After the ancient books were sent and the transaction was completed, they were all ordered by Jia Yi to be sent to the underground base immediately, transported out of the city, and temporarily placed in a secret underground base outside the city.

Waiting for the right time to send them back to Jingzhou.

In the Luoyang Imperial Palace,

Li Ru looked at the Imperial Jade Seal in front of him, then looked up at the Great Han's Qi Luck Golden Dragon over Luoyangcheng using the Qi-Watching Technique.

"Awoo...."

The Great Han's Qi Luck Golden Dragon sensed Li Ru's peeping, but unfortunately, it was weak, and even its cries had become feeble, let alone giving Li Ru a strong backlash.

It could only glare at Li Ru.

"Hehe!"

Li Ru just smiled faintly when he saw this, looked at the Great Han's Qi Luck Golden Dragon, which was still constantly weakening, judged it in his heart, and thought: "It seems that after the Son of Heaven moves away, this Qi Luck Golden Dragon won't be able to make any waves for the time being!"

"The backlash against the Lord and me will also be reduced to a minimum!"

"Unfortunately, it is not yet time to destroy it!"

"But it is enough for now!"

"This time, let's leave this Imperial Jade Seal in Luoyangcheng and throw it to those warlords for them to fight over!"

"It just so happens that it can further weaken the Great Han's Qi Luck Golden Dragon and make it completely lose any possibility of turning things around;"

"At the same time, it can also avoid this Imperial Jade Seal making any more trouble!"

He knew very well that the reason why Zhang Jiao's dragon-slaying failed was because of the trouble caused by this Imperial Jade Seal.

He would not make the same mistake as Zhang Jiao.

"You! Put the Imperial Jade Seal into the box for me!"

Thinking of this, Li Ru waved his hand at an ordinary palace maid beside him.

Anyway, he himself did not dare to touch this Imperial Jade Seal.

Once touched, with the curse and robbery Qi of the Great Han's Qi Luck Golden Dragon on him, he might be directly backlashed to death by this Imperial Jade Seal.

He would not seek death.

"I hope some of you can catch this big gift, this causality, and bear this backlash for me and my father-in-law!"

"After you bear it and take over this causality, then the Great Han will truly exist in name only;"

"At that time, my Lord will be able to truly begin to seize the world and take the Great Han!"

Li Ru looked to the east and thought with a cold smile.

"Yes!"

The palace maid heard this and quickly stepped forward to put the Imperial Jade Seal into the box and covered it.

Only then was she waved away by Li Ru.

In a flash, nearly several days passed,

Here at Hulao Pass, the situation had already changed.

Three days after Zhao Yun fought Lu Bu, Yuan Shao and the others couldn't wait any longer. After discussing with Su Xuan, they took advantage of Zhao Yun's third fight with Lu Bu to directly lead the army out of the camp, ignoring Lu Bu, and directly led the army to kill toward Hulao Pass.

As a result, Lu Bu was startled by this formation, quickly repelled Zhao Yun, and ran back on his horse.

At the same time, Lu Bu did not forget to transmit to Zhao Yun: "Damn! Zhao Zilong! You kid are not loyal; you actually plotted against me?"

Zhao Yun heard this and replied with a funny transmission: "This really can't be blamed on me! It's Yuan Shao and their strategy!"

"Brother Fengxian, you'd better run quickly!"

"Damn!"

Lu Bu cursed, quickly accelerated, and retreated into his own army formation.

He directly connected and built the army formation, continued to retreat, and had no intention of staying to fight the allied forces.

Ridiculous, that was hundreds of thousands of allied forces; he would be a fool to stay and fight!

No matter how powerful he was, could he be more powerful than hundreds of thousands of troops?

Not to mention, there were divine generals on the opposite side like Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, and even Su Xuan who were at the same level or even stronger than him.

Saving one's life is the priority.

His retreat directly affected the Dong army several kilometers behind.

"Brother Fengxian! What's going on? Why are you back so early today?"

Dong Zhuo saw Lu Bu retreat and asked in confusion.

Lu Bu quickly replied: "Lord! The allied forces are not following the martial way; today they deliberately sent Zhao Yun to fight me, and then secretly, the whole army attacked and came to surround and annihilate me!"

"I see their goal is obviously not just me, but also you, Lord; so, Lord, retreat quickly!"

"It will be too late if it's late!"

"What?"

Dong Zhuo was shocked upon hearing this: "The allied forces have moved the whole army?"

"Really retreating?"

"No! My army has hundreds of thousands; how can I retreat without a fight?"

"Lu Bu, I order you to quickly lead the army to fight the allied forces;"

"I will also attack here, and fight the allied forces first;"

"Direct retreat is absolutely not allowed!"

Facing Dong Zhuo's tough request, what else could Lu Bu say?

He could only agree.

He immediately led the army to fight.

This battle was fought until the sky was dark and the earth was dark, and blood flowed like a river.

The casualties on both sides were very large.

But in the end, Dong Zhuo was outnumbered and had to choose to retreat.

They were chased by the allied forces all the way until they retreated to Hulao Pass, and then they temporarily caught their breath.

Next, the allied forces began to attack Hulao Pass with all their might.

At the same time, they wanted to send troops to attack Yique Pass.

"Who is willing to lead troops to Yingchuan, take the Liangxian road, attack Yique Pass, and then attack Luoyang?"

Yuan Shao looked at the warlords and asked.

Su Xuan heard this and immediately stood up and said: "Alliance Leader Yuan, I am willing to lead the army to attack Yique Pass!"

If he continues to stay at Hulao Pass and consume, for one thing, the loss is too great.

He couldn't bear to let his soldiers fill this majestic pass.

Of course, he could let the soldiers unleash their full strength and cooperate with Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and others to forcibly take Hulao Pass.

But this would completely expose the combat power of his army, which is not conducive to future development.

It would arouse the hostility and vigilance of all warlords.
