"No!" The crowd replied in unison.

"Okay, you guys also rest early, you have all been sleepless all night, so that all the soldiers have enough rest, and there is no need to patrol during this time."

When the command was finished, they all left the tent and went back to their camp to rest.

Lin Nan let his own soldiers also go down to rest, while he lay down in the big tent and began to replenish his sleep.

I don't know how much time I slept, but when I woke up, it was already evening when the sun was setting. He walked out of the big tent alone, and when he saw that the soldiers were still asleep, he did not disturb them, and walked out of the barracks aimlessly.

The setting sun seemed to roll in a golden-red glow before sinking behind the gloomy horizon. The reddish fireball glittered with gold, and two or three points of hot sparks flickered in and out, and the faint outline of the distant woods suddenly appeared in a continuous line of light blue.

Lin Nan sat alone in the woods on the edge of the official road, not far away was a continuous barracks, and beside him was the afterglow of the sunset, although the weather was still the same hot, but the landscape of the sunset still made people feel very beautiful.

After a long while, Lin Nan yawned, stretched, and as soon as he stood up, he heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves from the northwest. Immediately afterward, several knights came out of the horizon, with their backs to the setting sun, as if they were running out of the sun.

Because it was far away, Lin Nan couldn't see the person who was coming at all, he turned his head, blinked his stinging eyes, and said slowly: "It seems that he is here to meet the alliance again, but I don't know where the soldiers and horses are?" ”

Walking slowly and leisurely forward, the sound of the horse's hooves behind him getting closer and closer to him, he politely leaned towards the side of the road and made way for the knights behind him.

Not long after, the sound of horses' hooves stopped behind Lin Nan. I heard a knight shouting and asking, "Hey! This brother, is it Chen Liu? ”

Lin Nan nodded, but did not look back, and said softly: "Well, eight miles ahead is Chen Liu, and you can go directly to the city along this official road." ”

One of the knights at the head stared at the connected barracks in front of him. said lightly: "I didn't expect the Chen Liuhui Alliance to be so powerful, but in my opinion, it is just a group of rabble, and it may not be the opponent of Dong Thief Xiliang Bing." ”

"What a big breath!" The voice behind him came into Lin Nan's ears, and he, who was walking forward, suddenly stopped, secretly screamed in his heart, and turned his head, wanting to see clearly who the person who said such words was!

Go back. Lin Nan saw that the knight on the horse led by him was wearing a strong suit, nine feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, long arms and huge hands, and a handsome bronze face with sharp edges and corners, like a knife and axe; The two thick eyebrows are pitch black and neat, without half a trace of messiness, like an ink painting knife cut; Straight nose bridge. The lips are closed, and in the deep eyes are a pair of eyes that seem affectionate and ruthless, warm and indifferent. The silver light flashed, as sharp as a knife's edge.

Speaking from the heart, this guy's appearance is really tasteful, and he exudes an indescribable temperament, even Lin Nan, who has read tens of millions of people, has never seen this kind of temperament. The knight on the horse does not have the handsome jade face of a small white face. But he has a kind of rough lines, which can be said to be a pure man's face, especially the star-like eyes are extremely deep, making people unable to see through what he thinks, with his tall and strong majestic tiger body. There is an irresistible masculinity.

The knight on the horse noticed that Lin Nan was looking at him silently, and he also looked at Lin Nan, and saw that Lin Nan had a black and humble hairstyle, his complexion was a little dark, and his cold face was inlaid with a pair of hot eyes, and the eyes that emanated from his eyes seemed to be able to see through a person's qiqi. This was the first time he had met such a heroic and extraordinary person among the many foreigners he had seen, and he already had a third liking in his heart. He secretly thought in his heart: "I have been in contact with the Hu people since I was a child, and the Hu heroes I have met in my life are nothing more than this, but this person is more imposing than any Hu hero I have seen, I don't know if it is a Wuhuan person or a Xianbei person?" ”

Under the exchange of eyes, Lin Nan gave a high evaluation of the knight on the horse in his heart, and among any of the fierce generals and heroes he had seen, he might not be able to find a person who was so manly as the knight in front of him, so he secretly said in his heart: "This person must be an extraordinary hero." ”

"May I ask ......" After a brief meeting of eyes, Lin Nan and the knight shouted almost at the same time.

"Hahaha......" The two looked at each other and smiled.

After the laughter, it was Lin Nan who took the lead in asking: "In Xia Lin Nan, the word Ziyu, did you not ask Your Excellency's name?" ”

The knight on the horse was stunned for a moment, with a hint of surprise, and pointed at Lin Nandao: "You...... Are you really Lin Nan? ”

"If you don't change your name, you won't change your surname, and you'll be Lin Nan!"

"Hahaha!" The knight on the horse jumped off the horse, stood in front of Lin Nan, and arched his hand, "I have heard the name of General Lin for a long time, it is really like thunder, and when I see it today, it is really a kind of fate." A native of Wuyuan in a certain state, surnamed Lu, named Bu, the word Fengxian, is the main book under the original account of Ding Ding, and he has seen General Lin! ”

"Lu Bu, oh......" Lin Nan's eyes almost didn't fall, he didn't expect the famous Lu Bu to actually stand in front of him, for him, it was too unexpected, and he thought to himself, "Lu Bu actually came to the alliance?" It seems that this world has been completely changed by me, and it seems that the Tiger Prison Battle will not exist anymore, which is really a great surprise......"

Accidents are accidents, but for Lin Nan, who has seen too many celebrities of the Three Kingdoms, he still maintains a calmness, and he knows that Lu Bu is also a wolf with ambitions, he will definitely not take Lu Bu for his own use, compared to Liu Bei, who still has room for control, Lu Bu is an out-and-out dangerous person. However, since he knew that he was not in Dong Zhuo's camp now, it would be much simpler. He immediately arched his hand and said: "It turned out to be Lord Lu, disrespectful and disrespectful." ”

Lu Bu saw that Lin Nan's hairstyle was dressed by a foreign clan, and he was a little puzzled, so he asked: "General Lin, I came to Chenliu to meet the alliance on the order of my lord, I don't want to meet the famous General Lin just after I arrived in Chenliu, it seems that I should take back what I said just now." There was actually General Lin among the people who came to the alliance, so it was not a rabble. But what puzzled Lu was. Why is General Lin's hair ......"

Lin Nan smiled: "Oh, this, it's a long story, in short, it wasn't a punishment, but a little sacrifice made in order to quell the rebellion in Youzhou Wuhuan." ”

Lu Bu heard Lin Nan's name when he was in Bingzhou, and at that time he only thought that Lin Nan was just relying on luck. But as soon as he saw Lin Nan in person today, he immediately dispelled the previous speculation. Because in his opinion, Lin Nan exudes a kind of majesty that is different from ordinary people, and it is difficult for people to forget it after they meet. is also a martial artist, he also envies Lin Nan, who can actually achieve the high position of general of Zhenbei. He thought that he would not be worse than Lin Nan, but he could only be a general under Ding Yuan. He sighed in his heart, turned to a knight behind him and said, "Wei Xu, Hou Cheng." The two of you go back and tell your father-in-law that your father-in-law will be stationed in the wild king, and you don't have to cross the river, and I will attend the affairs of the alliance in place of your father-in-law. ”

The two young generals behind Lu Bu only made a soft "promise", then turned the horse's head and rode towards the road they had come.

Lin Nan only noticed the four knights behind Lu Bu at this time, Wei Xu and Hou Cheng left, and there were two people left. The younger one still looks a little immature, while the older one looks mature. Although the faces of the two people are not as majestic as Lu Bu, if they are placed in a group of ordinary people, those two people look quite conspicuous. He secretly speculated, and asked, "Who are these two behind Brother Lu......?"

"Oh, the one on the left is called Gao Shun, and the one on the right is Zhang Liao. It's all my subordinates, which makes General Lin smile. Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, why don't you meet the famous Zhenbei General and Liaodong Marquis? ”

Lu Bu's voice fell, but he saw Gao Shun and Zhang Liao arching their hands together: "I've seen General Lin." ”

"Excuse me!" As Lin Nan spoke, he looked at Gao Shun and Zhang Liao carefully.

Gao Shun looked to be twenty-seven or eighteen years old. He was burly, with a scorched complexion, but he said little, and there was a shrewd look in his small eyes.

Zhang Liao is about seventeen or eighteen years old, with shoulder-length hair that is shiny and moving, a slightly thin face, surprisingly handsome facial features, a high nose and thin lips, and the most special thing is that the eyes, the corners of the eyes are thin and long, and the eyes are cold and bright. All in all, this is a handsome guy with a temperament that people can't forget at a glance. But he is such a handsome guy with a temperament, but he looks immature, as if he has just stepped into society from home.

After looking at it, Lin Nan gave up his hand and said, "Brother Lu has these two subordinates, which is indeed enviable." ”

Lu Bu only smiled faintly, and was not polite, and replied directly: "General Lin has good eyesight, my subordinates are all carefully selected, and there is no superior force, I will not let them follow me." This time, I will join the state army to show my demeanor in front of the heroes of the world, and I want to let the heroes of the world see how majestic the tiger and wolf division led by my Lu Bu is! ”

Hearing Lu Bu boast of his words like this, Lin Nan was not surprised at all, but frowned, he believed that Lu Bu did have this strength, if nothing else, Lu Bu was still among the allies, and it was estimated that Lu Bu would occupy a pivotal position in this crusade against Dong Zhuo. Because, Lu Bu's martial arts can be called unparalleled in the world, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Dian Wei, and Xu Chu are not his opponents, not to mention that Dong Zhuo's Huaxiong was also dug up by him, and there are almost no people who can resist Lu Bu for a few rounds.

"In that case, then please Brother Lu hurry up and enter the city, Yanzhou Assassin Shi Cao Cao and Taiwei Yuan Shao are in the city to welcome the princes from all walks of life."

Lu Bu arched his hand towards Lin Nan, although he envied Lin Nan for becoming the general of Zhenbei at such a young age, but he had a momentum of looking down on the world, in his heart, he firmly believed that after this alliance, he would become a figure that the world talked about. Turning over and getting on the horse, Lu Bu said "goodbye", and then took Gao Shun and Zhang Liao to Chen Liucheng with a whip.

Lin Nan stood on the side of the road, looked at the backs of Lu Bu and the others, and said to himself: "It seems that this meeting is the largest gathering of the heroes in history, Dong Zhuo has no Huaxiong and Lu Bu, only some soldiers and horses from Xiliang, and it seems that he will be forced to withdraw from Luoyang." But I can't take it lightly, the scene of the heroes is bound to be full of deceit, intrigue and intrigue, I must treat this alliance calmly, and the key to my acquisition of Youzhou is in this alliance. ”

The date of the alliance is getting closer and closer, and soldiers and horses from all walks of life have rushed over in these last days. Liu Biao, the assassin of Jingzhou, Sun Jian of Changsha, and Liu Xuan, the assassin of Yangzhou, all three people who were far away from Chen Liu, rushed over, except for Sun Jian who led 5,000 elite soldiers to arrive, Liu Jian only brought 3,000 soldiers and horses, Liu Biao was afraid of trouble, and directly stationed the soldiers and horses in the Nanyang area. He brought only a hundred of his relatives with him. In addition, the soldiers and horses of Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang, Shangdang Taishou Zhang Yang and the soldiers and horses of Bingzhou Thorn Shi Ding Yuan were stationed in Yewang, and Wang Kuang and Zhang Yang also came with only a few personal companions.

On July 31, one day before the alliance, all the heroes of the world who responded to Dong Yuwen arrived in Chenliu, and only Lu Bu attended in place of Ding Yuan. For a time, Chen Liu became a gathering place for the world's elite soldiers, and there were dense people stationed within a radius of ten miles from Chen Liucheng, just the strength of the alliance this time. It is as high as about 350,000 people, and this still leaves aside Liu Biao's soldiers and horses in Nanyang, as well as the soldiers and horses of Ding Yuan, Wang Kuang, and Zhang Yang in Yewang.

On the first day of August, from the cracks in the clouds, from the edge of the orange-yellow lining the sun, the sunlight became a wide fan-like light, projected obliquely. Under the lonely sky, a high platform was built near the Mingyan Pavilion ten miles west of Chen Liucheng. The high platform is three zhang high and six zhang wide. There are stairs on all sides, and on the top platform of the high platform, there is a giant tripod, in which a raging flame burns, and the four corners are full of flags, and all kinds of flags are waving in the breeze. Under the raised platform. All the soldiers and horses were neatly arranged, surrounded the high platform in all directions, and waited for the completion of the alliance ceremony on the high platform.

In front of the giant ding, there were more than 20 people standing in total, all of whom were the generals and captains of the various states and counties who came to meet the alliance this time. Everyone had a few sticks of sandalwood in their hands. Regardless of the official title, they were divided into three rows and stood down, and under the leadership of Yuan Shao, who initiated this alliance, they burned incense and sacrificed to the sky together.

As early as last night, all the princes who participated in the alliance gathered together to jointly elect Yuan Shao as the leader of the alliance. Later, under Cao Cao's construction, Liu Yu and Yuan Shu were the deputy alliance leaders, Lin Nan and Cao Cao were the army members, Ding Yuan was the pioneer of the North Road, Liu Biao was the pioneer of the South Road, and Sun Jian was the pioneer of the Middle Road, all of which were unanimously recognized by the princes of all walks of life.

Yuan Shao was wearing a captain's court uniform at this time, with a sword hanging from his waist, and after burning incense, he turned around and said to everyone: "The Han family is unfortunate, and the emperor is out of control. The thief Dong Zhuo, took advantage of the provocation and indulgence, added disaster to the supreme, and abused the people. Today, we are afraid of the loss of the society, entangled the volunteers, and went to the country. Whoever is allied with me and works together to make the ministers have no two aspirations. There is this alliance of Chongqing, and it is impossible to lose its life, and there is no legacy. The emperor and the queen of heaven, the ancestors and the spirits, are all learned! ”

As soon as the words fell, Cao Cao made people come up with the wine jar, opened the wine bowls one by one, and filled them with spirits.

Yuan Shao walked in front of the spirits first, pulled out the saber in his waist, stretched out the thumb of his left hand, and slashed it on the blade of the sword, causing the blood to flow out of his fingers and drip into the wine bowl, and shouted loudly: "Today's blood alliance is an alliance, and those who participate in this alliance must take it as their responsibility to kill Dong Zhuo. ”

The rest of the people followed suit, and when it was Lin Nan's turn, Lin Nan also dripped two drops of blood in the wine bowl, but sighed in his heart: "It's better to say than to sing, after my understanding in the past few days, the princes who came to the alliance are nothing more than to join in the fun, and there are very few people who really want to save the country and save the people." Even I have selfish intentions, let alone others. ”

When everyone was allied with blood, Yuan Shao picked up the wine bowl with everyone, exchanged wine bowls with everyone, and drank the bloody wine of different people with each other.

Lin Nan didn't know whose wine bowl he was holding, a trace of sorrow appeared on his face, looking at the blood in the wine bowl that had faded, he didn't know if the blood in the wine bowl was clean or not, or if there was any genetic disease. He brought the bowl to his lips, and when everyone took a sip, he threw the rest of the wine on the ground with the bowl and smashed it to pieces, and he didn't even dare to taste it, but threw the whole bowl of wine directly on the ground, and it fell neatly and painfully.

After a crackling sound, with Yuan Shao's shout of "send troops", everyone present hugged their fists together and said, "No!" ”

So, after the alliance, the heroes got off the high platform one after another, and Liu Biao and Lu Bu took their own people to take the lead. The rest of the people gathered their own troops and horses and slowly set out.

Lin Nan came to Sun Jian's troops first, walked to Sun Jian's side, and arched his hand to Sun Jian: "Brother Wentai, you and my brother have not had time to talk for a long time, and they are going to separate." We're here to meet together. After a few days of delay, Dong Zhuo had already learned the news and had set up heavy troops in the Xingyang area. You are the pioneer of the middle road, the first pass is Bishui Pass, the younger brother wishes Brother Wentai a victory, and I will lead the soldiers and horses to support three days later. ”

Sun Jian only smiled. patted Lin Nan on the shoulder, and said loudly: "Brother Xian is too worried, although my 5,000 soldiers and horses are few, they are also elite soldiers under my subordinates, not to mention that I have also seen the four generals Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, and Zu Mao with my own eyes, no matter how many soldiers and horses Dong Zhuo has stationed in Bishui Pass, my Sun Wentai will conquer this pass to admire the prestige of my ally." ”

Lin Nan didn't say anything more, he knew the Jiangdong Tiger. As long as he handles the affairs of the rear well and does not let Sun Jian have any worries, Sun Jian will definitely be able to conquer the Xiashui Pass.

Sun Jian turned over and threw his hand towards Lin Nan and said, "Brother Xian, I will leave my brother, please wait for the news of my victory!" ”

"Brother Wentai take care all the way!"

Luoyang, Imperial Palace.

In the quiet of the night, the lights in the Hehuan Hall are bright. Outside the gate of the temple was a group of tiger armorers wearing iron armor and holding halberds. They stood straight at the door of the main hall, looking so mighty.

"Ahh

A heart-rending woman's scream came from the hall, followed by a man's hoarse roar, followed by a series of groans of pain or pleasure.

When the tiger warriors outside the temple gate heard these voices, everyone's hearts felt extremely frightened. For a long time, they guarded the entrance of this large hall, and watched as many women were carried in, but in the morning, the bodies were indeed carried out. Rao is that they have become accustomed to this kind of scene. I can't help but feel an inexplicable fear of the person they want to protect.

After a long while, there was no movement in the Hehuan Palace, and the peace of the night was restored.

The door of the Hehuan Hall was hidden, and there were only two people in the huge hall, a man and a woman, both naked. The man looked like he was forty-five or sixteen years old, sitting upright on the golden emperor's throne, leaning there limply, his forehead and body covered with sweat, and something with a trace of blood between his legs was slowly weakening.

In the center of the main hall, a long-haired beauty with a naked body, her limbs spread out in a large shape, her ankles and wrists were tied with ropes, tied to the dragon pillar in the hall, and the two ** were bitten alive, leaving a broken and bloody chest, and between her legs dripping mixed with blood and white viscous liquid, which was dripping to the ground drop by drop, in the silent hall, there was a slight sound of crackling.

The woman threw her head back, her face was covered with scars, her eyes were full of horror, and there were bruises on her fingers on her neck, and from the broken throat bones, it was clear that the woman had been strangled to death.

The man was still sitting on the emperor's throne, panting slowly, his eyes fixed on his masterpiece of the night, and a happy smile on his face. After a while, he picked up one of his own garments from the ground, wrapped it around his waist, and shouted to the outside of the temple, "Carry the man out!" ”

The tiger warrior standing outside the hall hurriedly pushed the door in, and as soon as he entered the hall door, he knelt on the ground for the man first, and said "no" before he dared to get up and clean up the qiē in the hall. These tiger warriors were very nimble in their hands and feet, and after wrapping the woman's body in a piece of silk, they carried it out directly, while the rest of the people carried buckets to wash the ground in the main hall, and in a short time, the original filthy hall became golden again.

At this time, a person wearing an official uniform walked in from outside the hall in a panic, his face was slightly dark, his face was gloomy, and his mustache was slightly upturned. As soon as he entered the main hall, he walked straight to the emperor's throne where the man was sitting, only bowed slightly, and immediately shouted: "Taishi, there is news in the eastern part of the country, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao gathered many princes, and the total strength was as many as 400,000 in Chenliu, and they marched in three ways, and the state assassinated Shi Dingyuan, Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang, and Shangdang Taishou Zhangyang, and the three routes of soldiers and horses were combined into one, forming the Northern Route Army, and the troops were in the Yewang; Liu Biao, the assassin of Jingzhou, and Kong Yi, the assassin of Yuzhou, formed the Southern Route Army, and the troops were stationed in Yingchuan; The rest of the roads are unified to form the middle route army, starting from Chenliu, at this time there is no movement in the north and south two roads for the time being, only the middle route army to Changsha Taishou Sun Jian as the vanguard, has left Chenliu, is coming to Xingyang. ”

The man sitting on the emperor's throne was none other than Dong Zhuo, who was already in control of the entire situation in Luoyang. As soon as Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, he immediately pulled the kidnapped Huangfu Song from his high position and tore off the human skin he was wearing. In order to make the Qiang Hu he gathered follow him with all his heart, he drove the soldiers to rape and plunder around Luoyang, often set up wine ponds and meat forests in the imperial palace, often feasted the Chinese military officials, and forced the hundred officials to drink the wine soaked in human heads at the banquet.

In addition, he often stayed in the palace. **Harem, any concubines, princesses, and palace maids, as long as they are favored by him, they are all called to the Hehuan Hall and become a tool for him to vent his desires. In order to pursue excitement, he does not hesitate to abuse the woman he wants, and every time his ** reaches the limit, he can't restrain himself, so he kills the woman he plays with. Today is no exception. The one who was just carried away was Princess Wannian, the daughter of Emperor Ling of Han. All the officials in the DPRK and China are in danger, and they dare not speak out.

At this time, Dong Zhuo's body was slightly fatter than before, he stroked his big belly with both hands, glanced at the mustache beside him, and said slowly: "What Kanto heroes?" Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Biao, Yuan Shu, Ding Yuan and other generations are all characters who are not in the stream, I didn't take them seriously at all, although there are many soldiers and horses. But it's all a rabble, as long as I ride out of Xiliang Tie. Even if he has a million people, there is nothing to fear. But...... Sun Jian is a character, how many soldiers and horses did he bring? ”

That eight-character Hu Nai is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, surnamed Li Mingru, Dong Zhuo was able to enter Beijing along the way, and he contributed a lot of advice behind the scenes. Heard Dong Zhuo ask. He immediately said, "It's only 5,000 people." ”

Dong Zhuo said: "Sun Jian is a fierce tiger, in the battle of Jicheng back then, I witnessed his bravery, if I can subdue him, I can use it." It must be able to give those rabble in the Kanto region a dismount, do you have any way? ”

Li Ru thought for a while, and said with a sneer: "I heard that Sun Jian has a word, named Sun Ce, and now he is only eleven or twelve years old, but he has infinite strength, isn't there another ** under the knees of the Taishi?" If he can form a family with Sun Jian, and then promise to be a high-ranking official and pay homage to the prime minister, then won't Sun Jian become the right and left hand of the Taishi? ”

"Well, this matter is very important, where has Sun Jian gone now?"

"It's less than fifty miles away from Bishui Pass."

"Li Ru, you go to Sun Jian's barracks in person, and you must get this done."

"No!"

"In addition, can Lin Nan be in the Kwantung Coalition Army?"

Li Ru hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "Taishi, Lin Nan is now a member of the coalition army and is in the camp of the coalition army. ”

After Dong Zhuo heard this, an incomparably fierce light appeared in his eyes, slapped the dragon chair fiercely, and yelled at Li Ru: "You quickly write a letter to Lin Nan in my name, and ask him to come with all the soldiers and horses to take refuge, otherwise, he and none of his Flying Feather Army clans will want to live!" Compared with Sun Jian, Lin Nan is both wise and brave, and he is the person I am really worried about, if he appears in the camp of the coalition army, it will be very unfavorable to our army. Lin Nan was born in Liangzhou, and he knew Qianghu's combat methods very well, and if he was there, it would be a great threat to our army. ”

Li Ru let out a "promise", bowed down and asked, "What else does the Taishi command?" ”

Dong Zhuo said: "Let Zhang Ji and Fan Chou lead 50,000 troops to garrison Chenggao, in case the soldiers and horses of the Northern Route Army are merged, you take Li Dao, Guo Yan and 50,000 soldiers and horses to arrive at Bishui Pass first, and reinforce Xu Rong and Hu Zhen." When Ma Teng and Han Sui arrive from Chang'an with soldiers and horses, I will personally lead the army to reinforce you. ”

Li Ru said: "Taishi, don't you send troops to support Xuanyuan Pass to resist the Southern Route Army?" ”

Dong Zhuo said with a smile: "Liu Biao has no ambitions, a thief who guards himself, and it is enough for Niu Fu to be stationed at Xuanyuan Pass, and he will definitely not advance his troops." Okay, you go quickly, settle the matter of Sun Jian and Lin Nan first, and leave the other things for later. ”

Li Ru turned around and left, just took two steps, and turned back and said: "Taishi, the soldiers and horses of the Northern Route Army are all brave men, and Taishi should be more careful." ”

"Ding Jianyang's generation is not worried, even though his soldiers and horses are very brave, but Zhang Ji and Fan Chou are not vegetarians, with him here, I can sit back and relax."

Li Ru wanted to say something, but as soon as he saw Dong Zhuo's face showing displeasure, he immediately "promised", turned around and walked out of the hall quickly, he only felt that there were two cold eyes on his back staring at him very uncomfortable. When he walked out of the Hehuan Palace, he let go of his heart, let out a sigh of relief, and said slowly in his heart: "Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, following someone like Dong Zhuo, I must be careful in everything." I hope that this time I can dismantle the Kwantung Coalition Army, and then I will soon be able to become a founding hero. Dong Zhuo has no son, a hundred years later. Isn't this throne mine? ”

With his own wishful thinking, Li Ru went out of the palace, ordered the soldiers and horses, and took Li Dao, Guo Yan and 50,000 horse infantry troops to quickly go to Bishui Pass.

At the same time, Chen Liu, more than 200,000 coalition troops had already set off one after another the day after Sun Jian left, and now there were less than 100,000 left in Chen Liucheng.

Chen stayed in the house. Yuan Shao, Liu Yu, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Han Fu, Lin Nan, and Zhang Miao gathered together.

Cao Cao took the lead and said: "Although our army is now divided into three routes, but the South Route Army and the North Route Army are relatively weak, Dong Thief is powerful, Xiliang Soldier is even more brave in the world, our army has more infantry, Dong Thief has more cavalry, although the coalition army has 400,000 people, but whether it can defeat Dong Thief in one fell swoop, it is also unknown." Liu Biao and Kong Yi although they were stationed in Yingchuan. However, there were Niu Fu guarding Xuanyuan Pass, Dagu Pass, and Yique Pass, and there was still Yishui barrier, so it was very difficult to break through the three passes and one water to enter Luoyang. Therefore, please Yuan Highway lead his troops to Nanyang, attack Wuguan, and after breaking through Wuguan, you can enter Sanfu in one fell swoop. Disturb the rear of the Dong thieves, and then guard the Tong Pass. Cut off the way for Dong thieves to return to the west. I don't know what the highway thinks? ”

Yuan Shu stroked his mustache, his fair face showed a treacherous smile, and asked: "Meng De's arrangement is indeed good, but may I ask Meng De, I went to fight in Sanfu, and I only have 20,000 soldiers and horses under my command." If I defend Tongguan, it can indeed block the way of Dong thief's return to the west, but it also makes me fall into the situation where Dong thief's soldiers and horses are flanked before and after, and who will supply food and grass? Aren't you putting me in danger? If you want to go, I won't go! ”

Yuan Shu's words shocked everyone present. I didn't expect Yuan Shu to openly say such selfish words, thinking only of himself, regardless of the overall situation, which made Cao Cao, Liu Yu, Zhang Miao, and Han Fu all taken aback.

However, Yuan Shu's half-brother Yuan Shao and Lin Nan were not surprised at all. One of the two of them is a person who knows Yuan Shu well, and the other is a person who knows the historical figures of the entire Three Kingdoms, for the two of them, Yuan Shu's words not only did not surprise them, but made them feel a kind of nature, if Yuan Shu didn't say such a thing, and agreed, it would surprise the two of them.

Liu Yu frowned, and immediately said loudly: "Meng De's strategy is very good, if you don't go to the highway, I ......."

Without waiting for Liu Yu to say the last word, he heard Cao Cao grinning, hurriedly interrupted Liu Yu's words, and continued: "Lord Situ is really good at laughing, Brother Highway is the third prince of the Han Dynasty, I didn't expect this joke to be very beautiful." However, Brother Highway can rest assured, Han Tingshi will find a way to supply grain and grass, Jizhou is a place where money and grain are widely gathered, and the grain and grass of only 20,000 people should be able to cope with it. Han Tingshi, what do you mean? ”

Han Fu never expected Cao Cao to pull him in with a word, as far as he is concerned, he doesn't like Yuan Shu's lofty character, but likes Yuan Shao's approachable and courteous corporal kindness, not to mention that his Jizhou assassin history is also recommended by Yuan Shao, and the mustard between Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu is not a day or two, he naturally understands. At this time, he squinted at Yuan Shao, who was the leader of the alliance, and when he saw Yuan Shao nodding slightly, he said: "Please rest assured that the deputy alliance leader, I will definitely do my best to raise grain and grass, and now I can take out half a year's grain and grass to supply the deputy alliance leader." ”

"You ......" Yuan Shu's lungs were about to explode, he didn't expect Cao Cao and Han Fu to collude, just as he really went to attack Wuguan and Ketong Pass and cut off Dong Zhuo's way back, he was very likely to be wiped out. For him, he won't do anything to find death.

"Highway!" Yuan Shao's low roar interrupted Yuan Shu's words, "As the deputy leader of the alliance, you should set an example for the heroes of the world, you have the blood of our Yuan clan in your body, the Yuan clan is loyal to the Han Dynasty, the fourth world and the third duke, you and I can be elected as the leader and deputy leader of the alliance by the heroes of the world, all because of the reputation of the Yuan clan." You have repeatedly pushed back, don't you want to discredit the Yuan family? Where did the son of the Yuan family, who was not afraid of the sky and the earth, go? ”

Yuan Shu now knows very well in his heart that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao grew up wearing a pair of pants since childhood, and Han Fu is also inclined to Yuan Shao, Zhang Miao, as Chen Liutaishou, is also close to Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, although Liu Yu does not deal with Yuan Shao, but he will not help himself to speak, his only hope now is that another one in the allied army joins the army. He squinted at Lin Nan, and saw Lin Nan sitting there with an expressionless face, and immediately said, "Lin Ziyu!" You are also in the army, don't you have any opinions on the strategy formulated by Cao Mengde? ”

"Nope!" Lin Nan's answer was crisp and neat.

Yuan Shu's heart was completely cold, although he didn't want to go, but he had been forced to do this, and he couldn't go if he didn't go. He really regrets it now, why did he insist on fighting for this deputy alliance leader in the first place, if he was not the deputy alliance leader, how good it would be. But at this point, he can't regret it, who made him the deputy leader of the alliance now. He was very confused and entangled, pondered for a moment, and suddenly a thought flashed in his mind: "Go and go, I will be an example and show the world." After taking the Wuguan, I won't advance, I see who can do what to me? However, you can't let go of Yuan Benchu before leaving! ”

"Good! Since this is the case, then ask Han Tingshi to give me a year's grain and grass, and I will lead the army to sweep through the Sanfu area, and if I don't achieve my goal, I will never return to the army! Yuan Shu said coldly, "However, Yuan Benchu, as the recognized leader of the alliance of the world's heroes, can't he lead by example and personally lead the army to the front line to command the battle?" If you have been hiding in the rear, you are not afraid of being ridiculed by the world? As you said, the prestige of my Yuan clan cannot be ruined by you here! ”

Lin Nan saw that Yuan Shu's ball was kicked to Yuan Shao, and he laughed in his heart, secretly thinking that it was not a matter of a day or two for the Yuan brothers to fight openly and secretly, driven by common interests, they could unite regardless of their previous suspicions, but if it was really about their personal interests, they would fight each other.

Yuan Shao was not as stingy as Yuan Shu, and immediately said loudly: "The soldiers and horses of Bingzhou are in Yewang, and the strength is only 30,000, which is relatively weak, so I am ready to take the troops to Pinggao, and join the division with the Bingzhou soldiers, attack Chenggao together, and then attack the back of Xingyang, seize Xingyang with Sun Jian, occupy Aocang, and finally join forces to advance, attack the revolving gate pass, and approach Luoyang." So, you don't have to worry, after today's meeting, the army will be divided into three again. In order to win this crusade against Dong Thief, I decided to let Liu Xuan, the assassin of Yangzhou, and Yuan Yi, the Taishou of Shanyang, attack Wuguan with you. ”

Yuan Shu chuckled in his heart, he understood very well that this was because Yuan Shao was afraid that he would stop moving forward, so he specially found someone to monitor him. But he is not afraid, Liu Miao and Yuan Yi's soldiers and horses together are only 5,000 people, and he has 20,000 people, he can definitely suppress Liu Miao and Yuan Yi in momentum, and he also knows that Liu Miao and Yuan Yi may not be willing to send them to death, so that they can station troops together in the Wuguan area. He didn't refuse, but agreed very heartily, and immediately said: "Okay, then I'll set off today, and I'll let Ji Ling come to fetch food and grass at that time." I'm going to get ready now, guys, and we'll have a meeting later. ”

As soon as the words fell, Yuan Shu walked out of the hall without looking back.

Yuan Shao snorted coldly, and was extremely dissatisfied with Yuan Shubiao, but he didn't say anything, but turned his head to Han Fu and said: "You go back to Jizhou to raise grain and grass and supply it to the Northern Route Army, Meng De will naturally supply the Middle Route Army here, and Liu Biao will bear the responsibility of the Southern Route Army alone." ”

Han Fu said resignedly: "No! ”

Yuan Shao said to Lin Nan, who had not spoken much: "General Lin, please command the Middle Route Army with Da Sima and Meng De, and the day we conquer Xingyang will be the time when we will meet again." (To be continued......)
