"Nope! Go to Aocang! Sun Jian suddenly had a dispute with Lin Nan, "Dong Zhuo was defeated and retreated, and there was a lot of grain in Aocang, even if he would send heavy troops to guard it, as long as he chased and fought hard, he would definitely occupy Aocang." Besides, Dong Zhuo will never finish transporting the grain in Aocang in a short period of time, and now most of the coalition forces have reached the point of lack of grain and grass, if we occupy Aocang, we can replenish the necessary grain and grass, and wait for the coalition army to come, and then march to Luoyang together It is not too late, why rush to occupy Luoyang at one time? ”

Lin Nandao: "Since you don't go to Luoyang, then I won't be reluctant, I want to go to Luoyang, if you don't catch Dong Zhuo off guard, I'm afraid that Dong Zhuo will stick to Luoyang, Luoyang City is extremely well defended, if all the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses are stationed there, with our current combat strength, even if the grain and grass are sufficient, we may not be able to attack it in a year." Brother Wentai, since we each insist on our own opinions, it is better to part ways here, I will go to Luoyang, and you will go to Aocang. ”

Sun Jian was also refreshed, and immediately hugged his fists and said: "That's it." ”

"However, I have said first, you must not chase and fight, according to my speculation, Cao Cao's soldiers and horses are in front, you just need to follow behind." Lin Nan reminded.

Sun Jian laughed and said, "Thank you for reminding me, but I know it in my heart, Brother Ziyu, then let's separate here." ”

"Farewell!"

The two had already decided, so they each took their soldiers and horses and soldiers into two routes, one to Luoyang and the other to Aocang.

Lin Nan led Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, Jia Xu and three thousand cavalry to pursue slowly along the official road, because judging from the time of the death of the dead bodies on the ground, they were not far from the place where the Bingzhou soldiers and the Xiliang soldiers were fighting. After a group of people walked for about five miles, Lin Nan ordered to stop and sit on the side of the road to rest.

At this time, the sky was just bright, and the surroundings were still gray, and the official road in front of them. Dead bodies were everywhere, and some horses that had lost their owners were resting in the grass on the side of the official road. Broken weapons, mutilated arrows, tattered banners, and all kinds of dead corpses made the morning very bleak. Crows flew around, wild wolves scurried, many carcasses were torn into piles of rotten flesh by animals, and blood filled every corner of the air.

Lin Nan was obviously hungry. But he saw many corpses along the way, and he couldn't eat at all, so he just poured a few mouthfuls of water.

Jia Xu walked to Lin Nan's side at this time, bowed down and asked, "Lord, you call me?" ”

"Well, military advisor, do you say that Sun Jian really doesn't know the stakes between Luoyang and Ao Cang?" Lin Nan took a sip of water and asked softly.

Jia Xu didn't dare to say it clearly, nor did he dare to talk nonsense. Then he asked, "What does the lord mean?" ”

Lin Nan saw that Jia Xu was speaking very carefully, so he smiled and said, "It's okay for you to just say it." ”

Jia Xu said loudly: "Lord, my subordinates think that Sun Jian did this deliberately. ”

"Hmm...... Go on. ”

"Sun Jian may not know the stakes of Luoyang, but when he went to Luoyang with the lord, there was another Lu Bu in front of him, he had the least soldiers and horses, and he couldn't get any cheap when he went. It's better not to go. Among the heroes, Sun Jian can be regarded as a well-known figure. But he is also very sympathetic to his subordinates, so he would rather give up than do something that loses soldiers and horses. ”

Lin Nan closed the water bladder, slowly stood up from the ground, slapped his buttocks, and said with a smile: "The military advisor has analyzed it very well. It seems that Sun Jian is also worried, afraid that there will be a conflict with me on some interests, rather than being in a dilemma at that time, it is better to take the initiative to withdraw. is a good Sun Wentai, who can know advance and retreat. It is worthy of the Jiangdong Tiger, and with time, if there are wise and resourceful people to assist, they will definitely be able to dominate in the south of the Yangtze River. ”

"Since the lord knows that Sun Jian is a powerful person, why did he still want to ignite him in the first place, isn't the lord afraid that when he becomes an enemy of Sun Jian in the future, it will become very tricky?"

"Hahaha, military advisor, do you say it's easier to deal with one person, or easier to deal with a group of people?"

"Oh, I understand, my subordinates understand, it's much easier to deal with someone who knows a lot than it is to deal with a group of people who don't understand, the lord is really clever."

"Hehe, enough rest, order the whole army to get on the horse, move forward at a uniform speed, as long as we follow slowly for another day, it will be our turn to strike."

"No!"

After the order was given, all the soldiers got on their horses and followed Lin Nan to continue to advance in the direction of Luoyang.

At the same time, on the road to Aocang, Sun Jian, who had been walking five or six miles slowly, ordered the troops to stop advancing.

Cheng Pu saw that Sun Jian was worried along the way, so he hurriedly asked, "Lord, why did you stop?" ”

Sun Jian turned the horse's head, estimating that he was far enough away from Lin Nan, so he rushed to Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang and shouted: "The rear team becomes the front team, go to Xuanyuan Pass!" ”

Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang were all surprised, and it was difficult to understand the decision made by Sun Jian, so they said in unison: "Lord, what does this mean?" ”

Sun Jian said with a straight face: "Aocang is a heavy land for grain, how can it not be guarded by heavy soldiers?" Cao Cao has never fought with the Xiliang army, and he has the tiger and leopard cavalry under his account, and the Qingzhou soldiers are extremely strong, he is a master of art and courage, holding 30,000 soldiers in his hands, and he has enough capital to compete with the Xiliang soldiers in Aocang, we can't. This time we only brought only 1,000 cavalry, I can't let you all die in vain, on the way to Luoyang, there are two strong teams of Lu Bu and Lin Nan, and Cao Cao in Aocang, these two places are not places where we can compete for merit, only Xuanyuan Pass can go. ”

Huang Gai carried two iron whips, rode his horse to Sun Jian's side, and hurriedly asked, "Lord, since this is the case, then why should we go to Xuanyuan Pass?" ”

Han Dang said: "Could it be that the lord wants to attack Xuanyuan Pass from behind? ”

Sun Jian nodded and explained: "I saw very clearly at the fork in the road just now that there are horseshoe prints on the official road to Luoyang and Aocang, which shows that Dong Zhuo has arranged soldiers and horses in both places, but Xuanyuan Pass has not. If our army attacks Xuanyuan Pass from behind, it can lead Liu Biao and Kong Yi's soldiers and horses to attack Luoyang from Dagu Pass and Yique Pass, although it is a bit roundabout, but as long as Xuanyuan Pass is broken and the army is in a hurry, Niu Fu will not be able to deploy defense in the remaining two passes, and if he knows that Dong Zhuo has been defeated and retreated in the Tiger Pass, he will definitely not have the will to fight anymore and go to Luoyang from this road. Not only did not lose too many soldiers and horses, but they could also arrive together when Lin Nan and Lu Bu arrived in Luoyang. ”

Cheng Pu frowned and asked, "But, in this way, didn't the lord help Liu Biao?" That Liu Biao and the lord are a little bit dissatisfied, and the lord was too punctual when he took office in Changsha......"

"Let him pass the past. After the alliance, we will not stay in Changsha, and I have asked Zu Mao to write a letter to Sun Jing, asking him to take all the family and the rest of the soldiers and horses down the east of the river. My brother-in-law Wu Jing is the Taishou of Danyang, so we will go to him and take the six counties of Jiangdong as the foundation. ”

After Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang listened, they all had a trace of excitement on their faces, and they all understood in their hearts that Liu Xuan, the assassin of Yangzhou, was very weak. There is no one in Jiangdong, if Sun Jian really wants to dominate Jiangdong, it will be easy. The three of them immediately bowed their hands to Sun Jian and said, "No! ”

Sun Jian looked up at the bright sky, and said to himself: "Everyone knows that I have a dislike for Liu Biao, and from the perspective of common sense, I can't help Liu Biao break through the Xuanyuan Pass, but they are all wrong." Lu Bu and Lin Ziyu, take a good look. I will definitely arrive in Luoyang before you, and my Sun Jian will definitely surprise the heroes at that time. Only the higher prestige that is possessed here. When it is located in Jiangdong, it can attract more local celebrities. ”

At this time, Sun Jian's troops had changed teams, the front team became the back team, and the back team became the front team, Sun Jian ran to the front of the team with Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang, and gave an order. He began to return the way he came.

When he returned to the fork in the road, Sun Jian saw from afar that the big banners with the words "Cao", "Yuan", "Tao", "Gongsun" and so on were exposed on the mountain, and he did not stop long, but drove quickly in the direction of Xuanyuan Pass, when they were all gone. The army of the coalition army rushed up from the crowded official road, you squeezed me, and I squeezed you......

After the sky was bright, Lin Nan led the soldiers and horses to advance at a constant speed, and he would dismount and rest for a period of time every ten miles he advanced, he was not worried that the coalition forces behind him would catch up, in order to hinder the advance of the coalition forces in the direction of Luoyang, almost all the corpses killed in battle were burned everywhere he passed, and some roadblocks were brought from all around, preventing the rapid pursuit of the coalition cavalry on a certain distance.

By noon, Lin Nan had advanced seventy or eighty miles, and had reached the junction of Gongxian and Yanshi, and the scouts sent to report that Lü Bu was engaged in a battle with the Xiliang soldiers near Yanshi City.

Lin Nan lay on the grass on the side of the road, watching the soldiers pile up all the corpses killed in the middle of the official road, and then lit a fire and let it burn, and thick black smoke also rose. He saw that everyone was almost busy, so he gathered everyone and began to eat, for him, no matter how tense the battle in front was, it didn't matter if he didn't fill his stomach, and he couldn't fight without body, and he also believed that the coalition forces behind him were at least seventy or eighty miles away, and the layers of obstacles alone were enough for the coalition troops to carry for a while.

At this time, Tai Shici carried a bow and arrow, and a few soldiers carried a wild boar that had just been hit, and walked towards Lin Nan in a hurry.

"Ziyi, where did you call from?" Lin Nan saw that Tai Shici had called a wild boar, so he licked his lips, and he was already a little greedy.

Tai Shi Ci threw the wild boar to the ground, walked straight towards Lin Nan, and said happily: "Lord, this is the biggest harvest today, the dry food is not enough, only wild meat can be eaten, I found a nest of wild boars on the mountain over there, so I took people to hunt and kill, and the rest have been distributed to the brothers, and I specially brought a big one to come and honor the lord." ”

Lin Nan smiled and said to Tai Shici: "Well, yes, it's still early, this bit of game will be roasted quickly, and after eating, it will be on the road." ”

Tai Shi Ci said "Okay", and ordered his subordinates to go to the barbecue.

Jia Xu was by Lin Nan's side, and when he saw this kind of scene, he couldn't help but feel a little funny, and couldn't help but say to Lin Nan: "Lord, Lu Bu is fighting in front, Yuan Shao and others are still carrying obstacles behind, but we are eating game here. ”

"If you are angry, you will be angry, and you will save trouble in the future. This is called preserving strength, as long as I can enter Luoyang City within two days, I won't care about other things. At this time, I am afraid that Dong Zhuo is still worried and afraid, it is estimated that it is not pleasant to be bitten tightly by Lu Bu, he exchanged the red rabbit horse for a person who wants to kill him, this deal is a miscalculation. Lin Nan smiled while looking around, and saw that Zhao Yun was still directing the soldiers to carry the rocks and put them on the official road, so he said casually to Jia Xu.

Jia Xu also admires his lord. Things are always done unexpectedly, although he has no problem with Lin Nan calling him a poisoner, but in his heart, Lin Nan is many times more poisonous than him. Although he tried his best to persuade Lin Nan to become a non-toxic and non-husband, it was not easy to be a vicious person. Let's take the last time Lin Nan's entire clan was killed. He saw that Lin Nan's heart ached for a while, but he became happy because of Xu Huang's arrival, for him, he might not be able to change his mood so quickly. However, he also felt a hint of happiness, after all, his lord was vicious to his enemies, but he was very loving to his own people, such a person. It's worth following him.

After a while, the fragrant barbecue came to the nostrils, and the three thousand soldiers began to enjoy the delicious food on both sides of the official road, and the horses under the seats bowed their heads and graze, all of which were so peaceful.

At the same time, on the official road eighty miles to the east, Yuan Shaozheng was anxiously riding on horseback, and saw another hill of corpses piled up in front of him, and both sides of the official road were also burned by flames. The boring, flammable plants were all consumed by the fire, and his heart was on fire.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou were even more scolding. Both of their faces were blackened, and they had just solved an obstacle ten miles away, and now they had encountered another obstacle, which made them very annoyed.

“***！ Who is so damn lacking in virtue to set up an obstacle every ten miles like this? Yan Liang's temper was short-tempered, and he picked up the big knife in his hand and slashed it down on the dead tree on the side. When the blade passed, the dead tree that was not too thick was immediately cut into two ends and fell to the side, "If you let me know which bastard is so messed up, I must cut off his head!" ”

Yuan Shao was also angry. He finally took the lead in squeezing out of the narrow official road with the cavalry, and wanted to go straight to Luoyang, but he didn't know that he would encounter such a situation. However, he is not a good bird, and wherever he passed, he ordered the soldiers to set up roadblocks in this way in the back, blocking the pursuit of the rest of the coalition forces, and at the same time, he also used his identity as the leader of the alliance to order Gongsun Zhan and Tao Qian, who were traveling with him, to support Ao Cang, so that only his soldiers and horses were left.

"Lord, according to the scout's report, the first to rush out of the West Gate of the Tiger Prison Pass are only the four soldiers and horses, Lu Bu, Cao Cao, Lin Nan and Sun Jian, when Cao Cao's infantry was taken to Ao Cang by Li Dian and Le Jin, it seems that Cao Cao asked them to go to Ao Cang, so it means that Cao Cao also went to Ao Cang. In this way, only Lu Bu, Lin Nan and Sun Jian went to Luoyang. And on the way to Xuanyuan Pass, there were also soldiers and horses passing by, and it should have been sent by Dong Zhuo to support Xuanyuan Pass, because no one would be willing to help Liu Biao and Kong Yi at this time. A middle-aged man in a strong suit beside Yuan Shao looked both elegant and a little majestic, and he said slowly to Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao snorted coldly and shouted: "Lu Bu is brave and unscrupulous, Sun Jian is just and unwise, and only Lin Nan can do this kind of thing." ”

The middle-aged man continued: "It seems that Lin Nan wants to prevent the coalition forces behind from entering Luoyang, and he wants to monopolize this great achievement of expelling Dong Zhuo with Lu Bu and Sun Jian. Once Dong Zhuo is bitten tightly, he will definitely not return to Luoyang, and if the three of them coerce the Son of Heaven to order them not to obey, then the lord will have to listen to them in everything. ”

"Matching, what do you say I should do?" Yuan Shao also had a trace of worry in his heart, so he hurriedly asked the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was the judge, a person from the Chinese Wu Shuangquan, a think tank summoned by Yuan Shao, who could not only go into battle to fight, but also give advice, so Yuan Shao often took him with him, and trusted him more than the rest of the people. When Yuan Shao was repelled by Dong Zhuo, the troops were in Hanoi, so he took the initiative to come to take refuge, and the scholars in Runan and Yingchuan were on an equal footing, and Yuan Shao was listed as a guest, and Xin Ping, Guo Tu, Xin Bi, Chen Lin and others were Yuan Shao's think tanks.

The judge stroked the green beard on his chin, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lord, Yuan Highway has no intention of attacking Sanfu, there has already been news that Yuan Highway has secretly killed Nanyang Taishou, and he and Liu Xuan, Yuan Yi and others are stationed in Yangren, and Liu Biao secretly echoes each other, and the careful thinking of the Southern Route Army has long been self-evident. As soon as they learned that Dong Zhuo's troops were defeated in the Tiger Prison, they would inevitably storm the three passes where Niu Fu was stationed and enter Luoyang. The lord only needs to deliver this news to Yuan Highway, and Yuan Highway will definitely be able to take advantage of the situation, which is much smoother than the road that is fortified layer by layer. Once Yuan Shu and Liu Biao's army marched into Luoyang, with the prestige of the lord, they would inevitably be able to control the overall situation again. ”

After Yuan Shao heard this, he still had some worries. Because he knew Yuan Shu's personality very well, once he entered Luoyang, he would take advantage of the situation to control the power and leave him aside. This half-brother gives him both a headache and a fear. He is now leading his troops in pursuit. I've reached a dilemma, but I'm still hesitant and don't know what to do.

The judge seemed to see some of Yuan Shao's worries, so he continued: "The worries in the lord's heart are not unreasonable, but if you want to stop Lin Nan, Lu Bu, and Sun Jian from advancing to Luoyang, you can only rely on this method. Liu Biao is a self-guarded man, he doesn't have much ambition, although Yuan Shu is a little dislike with the lord, but after all, he is the younger brother of the lord. In any case, this fertilizer and water cannot be left in the fields of outsiders. If the lord is still worried, he will send Yan Liang to take a thousand light horsemen to Yuan Shu to fight together, as long as he enters Luoyang, the officials in the city will know that the lord has arrived as soon as they see Yan Liang, and then Yan Liang can also take advantage of the situation to control the situation in the city, after all, there are many people in the city who are interested in the lord, but there are very few who are oriented to Yuan Shu. The lord thought it was like this. Is it feasible? ”

Yuan Shao's shortcoming is indecision, and because of this. Only by seeing through Yuan Shao's shortcomings can he give advice in a timely manner, and when Yuan Shao hears such a method, he has no opinions from other strategists around him, so he will naturally rely on him. He thought about it for a long time, and then said to the judge: "Zhengnan, just do as you say." Immediately let Yan Liang take a thousand light horsemen to take the path and go straight to Yangren, but to avoid Xuanyuan Pass, you can't let Liu Biao know. ”

The judge smiled and summoned Yan Liang for Yuan Shao. And he was about to tell the matter to continue.

After Yan Liang received the order, he ran away with a thousand light horses, while Wen Chou led his subordinates to clear the obstacles ahead.

The sun was high and the sun was shining, and black smoke was billowing from all over the land.

On the official road to Luoyang, Lin Nan began to go on the road with well-fed and well-fed soldiers, because the scouts sent reported that Lu Bu had successfully broken through the Yanshi, and Dong Zhuo continued to retreat under the escort of Ma Teng, Han Sui, and Guo Yan. At the same time, the scouts also heard the news that Li Ru took Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, and Yang Feng to guard Aocang.

In order to keep the distance between him and Lu Bu, Lin Nan was not in a hurry to catch up, because on the road ahead, there would be a dangerous mountain road, and he let Lu Bu be a praying mantis and himself a yellow finch, and forced Luoyang step by step.

The night covered the land, Lin Nan led his soldiers and horses to follow Lu Bu closely, keeping an interval of twenty miles, and constantly sent scouts to the front to inquire about the news, and the places along the way also smelled more and more strongly blood, and even picked up some seriously injured and dying soldiers in the pile of dead.

Lin Nan left the military doctor with him to take care of the wounded, and sent a hundred soldiers to escort them, and let them follow slowly to carry the wounded to Luoyang.

After a day of stop-and-go, the soldiers were fully rested, and at this time everyone's hearts were ready for battle, because judging from the battlefield they had passed, the battle ahead had become particularly fierce, and the corpses of the soldiers could be seen everywhere.

Lin Nan was sitting in the woods on the edge of the official road, resting against a big tree with his back, looking up at the cold moon hanging in the sky, the breeze was blowing, he felt a little cool, and the leaves began to turn dark yellow, and even fell off naturally.

"It's already mid-August, and I have to finish these things and return to Youzhou, and the longer I stay outside, the more I feel at ease with Youzhou." Lin Nan seemed to be talking to himself, and he seemed to be telling someone something.

After Jia Xu heard this, he walked over and said to Lin Nan: "Lord, one month, another month will definitely be able to return to Youzhou, now we have walked hundreds of miles, and we are getting closer and closer to Luoyang, and we will definitely be able to come to Luoyang early tomorrow morning." ”

Lin Nandao: "Zilong, how much money did you collect along the way?" ”

Zhao Yun stood behind Lin Nan, and his handsome face was also stained with some vicissitudes at this time, and he bowed down and said: "It's not too much, only hundreds of thousands of dollars have been collected, and few of these Xiliang soldiers have money on them, and these are still turned out from the destroyed baggage trucks." ”

"Hundreds of thousands of dollars, it's just a few dozen catties of gold, it seems that Dong Zhuo has not deducted military salaries, now that we are in the time of war, the prices in Luoyang will definitely soar, and these dozens of catties of gold are not enough for us to buy forage for horses." Lin Nan was a little worried, "Forget it, there is no need to set up roadblocks, no more money collection, rest for a while, and we will march with the whole army." It's also time to help Lu Bu's state soldiers. ”

After resting for a while, Lin Nan took all the people and began to mount their horses, and after giving an order, they began to gallop towards the front, no longer paying attention to the dead bodies along the way.

The more they walked forward, the more Lin Nan and the others could feel the breath of death brought by the front. After galloping for more than ten miles, he saw the fire in front of him, so he ordered his subordinates to speed up.

Five miles ahead, there was a small village, the village was on fire all around, a group of Xiliang soldiers were surrounded in the village and could not break through, while the Xiliang soldiers led by Lu Bu kept throwing torches into the village on the periphery, and when they saw someone coming out of the village, they all shot and killed.

The flames are blazing. Under the reflection of the firelight, each of them had a colorful red face, and there was a strong smell of blood on their bodies and horses, which made people feel very frightened after seeing it, as if this was a cavalry from the region, which came to the world to spread death.

"Burn me!" Lu Bu wielded Fang Tian's halberd, and the gaze shot out of his viper-like eyes was enough to kill a qiē. He himself bent his bow and shot arrows, whenever he saw someone rushing out of the fire. Whoever the other person was, he shot an arrow at the man's face, and threw him into the fire, allowing it to burn.

In the sea of fire, the Xiliang soldiers were all like frightened birds, desperately rushing outward to kill. Some were burned in the flames and rushed out of the village, not to live, but to find relief.

The screams were incessant, and the moans of pain were mixed in. The raging fire began to spread outward with the momentum of a prairie fire, making the fire bigger and bigger, and after only a short while, the sea of fire engulfed the entire village, and the Xiliang soldiers inside struggled to crawl out of the sea of fire, and when the burnt black arm was stretched halfway, it stopped moving, and stiffened there, gradually engulfed by the flames.

Soon, no more shouts could be heard in the village, only the crackling of the fire and the smell of burnt mush.

At this time, Lin Nan's troops rushed to this place of fire, and saw that Lu Bu had gathered the remaining five or six thousand Bingzhou cavalry, so he waved and shouted: "Brother Fengxian, please stay!" ”

Lu Bu was about to set off, when he saw a group of troops chasing after him on the official road, and when he turned around and saw that it was Lin Nan, he turned his horse's head and greeted him: "It turned out to be General Lin, I don't know why General Lin came so slowly?" ”

Lin Nan looked at the village that was engulfed in flames, and the corpses of the Xiliang soldiers lying around, and already knew the battle situation. He arched his hand towards Lu Bu and said: "Brother Fengxian, don't blame, I chased all the way, but there are corpses all over the way, I have to deal with it, otherwise, if it causes a plague, it will be very bad, and I also took in a lot of wounded soldiers of Brother Fengxian, so I came slowly." ”

Lu Bu did not take this seriously, he relied on his own martial arts, led Gao Shun, Cao Xing, Xue Lan, and Li Feng to chase all the way here, although he encountered Dong Zhuojun's layers of interception, but there was not too much danger, he led the Bingzhou athletes like a tiger and wolf to pounce on the panicked Xiliang soldiers, always breaking through with the momentum of the wind and clouds. Finally pursued here, he was ambushed by Guo Yan, surrounded by 10,000 infantry in the village, he commanded Ruoding, led the army to break through, Guo Yan saw this and fled. So he drove the leaderless team to the village and set fire to death.

He glanced at Lin Nan, and saw that the people behind Lin Nan were also elite, so he said loudly: "Since we are here, then we will work together to pursue Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo has left an hour in advance under the protection of Ma Teng and Han Sui, as long as we are chasing non-stop now, when dawn, we will definitely be able to pursue to Luoyang City, no matter whether Dong Zhuo enters Luoyang or not, I am sure that he will be defeated, because I have mastered the weakness of the Xiliang soldiers." ”

Lin Nan understands very well that the weakness of the Xiliang soldiers is that they are too scattered, and the discipline is not very good, and as long as the recognized commander dies, the remaining commanders will disobey each other, which is equivalent to a group of dragons without a leader, and it doesn't take much effort to deal with such an army, just put on a position and strike at the person who gives the order with a resolute momentum. Coupled with the fact that the Xiliang soldiers were still on the way to rout, this made their army even more disheartened, no wonder Lu Bu would use more than 10,000 cavalry to pursue the enemy several times his invincible, coupled with his personal martial bravery, it was enough to make the morale of the Bingzhou soldiers always high.

"Okay, then we will join forces now, pursue Dong Zhuo together, and conquer Luoyang in one fell swoop." Lin Nan is very happy, because it is a union with the strong, and the result of the strong alliance is only victory. As for what happened after the victory, Lin Nan had already planned it.

Then, Lu Bu's face suddenly changed color, and he roared in a low voice: "No! You must kill Dong Zhuo! If I don't kill Dong Zhuo, my pursuit will be meaningless. ”

Lin Nan's eyes flickered, and he said, "Okay." When they arrived in Luoyang first, Dong Zhuo and Ma Bujun retreated together, and they must not be able to run far. We just have to quietly follow behind, we don't have to ......"

"We must pursue at full speed, Dong Zhuo has no infantry anymore, the rest are all cavalry, it is the Qianghu cavalry brought by Ma Teng and Han Sui from Liangzhou, and most of the infantry has gone to garrison Aocang." Lu Bu roared and turned the horse's head. Then he said to Lin Nandao, "General Lin, your soldiers are few, please follow me, if there is a battle ahead, I will take the lead, you finish, and we will work together to Chen soldiers under Luoyang City." ”

Lin Nan did not object after hearing this. Since he didn't let himself lose his troops, he naturally couldn't ask for it. And his mind is only in Luoyang, whether Dong Zhuo kills or not has no meaning to him, and he doesn't have to lose his troops.

After the discussion, Lü Bu took Gao Shun, Cao Xing, Xue Lan, Li Feng and the remaining less than 6,000 Bingzhou cavalry to run at the front of the official road, while Lin Nan took Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, Jia Xu and other subordinates to follow behind Lü Bu.

As soon as the army started here, the sound of horses' hooves of rolling thunder resounded non-stop on the official road. It gives people an extreme threat.

I thought that I would encounter Xiliang soldiers along the way and then intercept them, but I didn't even see a figure after running for twenty or thirty miles in a row. Lu Bu wondered in his heart why he didn't intercept it when he arrived in Luoyang. Suspicion flashed, but in exchange for extreme joy, as soon as he remembered that Dong Zhuo was ahead. He was overjoyed in his heart, as if he had seen Dong Zhuo's head in his hands.

The calm also made Lin Nan feel suspicious, he didn't know what was going on, but he was sure that something must have happened that made Dong Zhuo unable to divide his troops for defense, or he was engaged in some conspiracy, ambush or something like that. He sent Zhao Yun to remind Lu Bu of the former army, but Lu Bu didn't care about these things at all, he just rushed blindly.

After Zhao Yun came back from the front army, he said to Lin Nan: "Lord, Lu Bu is too arrogant, what do you say that he is a pioneer, don't worry about it, and let me come back to tell my lord, just follow behind and pick up the cheap." ”

"Humph!" Tai Shi Ci shouted angrily, "Eight lambs! Who does he think he is, but he is just a puppet, how can he be compared to the lord? If I have the chance, I will definitely cut off his head with my own hands. ”

Jia Xu hurriedly stopped: "Ziyi, be quiet, there are Bingzhou soldiers not far ahead, and it's not good for them to hear it." ”

Lin Nandao: "Forget it, I didn't want to contribute anyway, I was just following him to pick up cheap, since he is not worried, then I have nothing to say, now we are all vigilant, if there is really an ambush, it will generally not attack the front army, but the middle army and the rear army, let the whole army be careful." ”

The order was conveyed, and the whole army began to be very cautiously on guard, but after galloping for a while, seeing that the sky was about to brighten, he still did not encounter a little ambush by Dong Zhuojun, which made Lin Nan's heart feel very strange.

When the east showed the white of the fish's belly, Lü Bu and Lin Nan had already pursued to the territory of Luoyang, and when passing through Yishui, the combined forces of Lü Bu and Lin Nan saw the most tragic scene.

The banks of Yishui have become blood-colored areas, the corpses of people and horses are scattered on both sides of the riverbank, the blood stains the riverbank a blood-red color, there are broken weapons and arrows everywhere, and many corpses are still floating in the river, floating downstream along the river.

Seeing this scene, Lu Bu immediately stopped the advance of the army, he didn't understand what was going on, according to the speed of pursuing Dong Zhuo, his army should have been the first to arrive here. With a hint of doubt, Lu Bu quickly called Lin Nan, who was behind.

Lin Nan took Jia Xu and quickly galloped to the front army, letting Zhao Yun and Tai Shici suppress the formation. As soon as the two of them arrived at the front army, they were quite surprised to see the tragic scenes in the Yishui River.

"General Lin, most of the dead were Dong Zhuo's Xiliang soldiers, and many of them were soldiers in the coalition army, we have worked hard to pursue Dong Zhuo here, it can be said that no one arrived here first than us, why did this happen here?" Lu Bu waved the halberd in his hand, pointed to the corpse on the river bank, and asked loudly, "I just want to find out, where did these coalition forces come from, and whose soldiers and horses they were?" ”

Lin Nan looked carefully at the corpses on the riverbank, and there were indeed many soldiers with orange-red cloth bands wrapped around their arms, and the cloth ribbons were embroidered with the word "Han", which was a symbol of the unity of all the soldiers in the coalition at the time of the alliance. He turned his head to look at Jia Xu behind him, his eyes were also full of doubts, and he urgently needed Jia Xu to help him find the answer.

Jia Xu realized Lin Nan's eyes, and immediately searched for some relevant information in his mind, and then neutralized the subtle characteristics of the soldiers and horses in the coalition army, and connected with the things along the way, it only took a moment of effort, then opened his mouth wide, and said with a little surprise: "It's the Southern Route Army...... That's right, it's the soldiers and horses of the Southern Route Army......"

Lu Bu was taken aback: "Southern Route Army? Why did the soldiers and horses of the Southern Route Army appear here? Liu Biao is in Xuanyuan Pass, Yuan Shu is in Wuguan, there is a certain distance from here, and Dong Zhuo's defeat of the Tiger Pass was only two days ago, even if he went to inform him, it would be very laborious to attack Xuanyuan Pass, Dagu Pass, and Yique Pass, why would the soldiers and horses of the Southern Route Army be ahead of us? ”

As soon as Lin Nan heard this, his brain quickly worked, and he pointed to Yishui and said: "Not far upstream is Yique Pass, it seems that the Southern Route Army has broken through Yique Pass, and now the top priority is to quickly chase after it, and we must not let the Southern Route Army enter Luoyang City first, otherwise, our efforts will be in vain." ”

Lu Bu immediately shouted loudly: "The whole army is forward!" ”

After the order was given, more than 8,000 cavalry from Lu Bu and Lin Nan marched towards Luoyang together, quickly crossed the stone bridge over the Yishui River, and chased forward without stopping.

After pursuing for less than ten miles, Lu Bu and Lin Nan saw more and more corpses along the way. When Lin Nan saw the corpses of some of Sun Jianjun's soldiers, he suddenly realized why Liu Biao of the Southern Route Army broke through the Xuanyuan Pass.

There was a noisy sound in front, the fields on both sides of the official road and the official road were full of people, the black pressure of the sea of people, the cavalry of the coalition army was engaged with Dong Zhuo's Xiliang soldiers, and in the shaking of the figures, the cavalry led by Sun Jian was like a sharp knife into the heart of the Xiliang soldiers.

Sun Jian's right wing is Liu Biao's subordinates, a man dressed as a soldier in his forties is holding a phoenix mouth knife, and two young men behind him are guarding his left and right, one is holding a spear, the other is dancing with a double knife, the three of them cooperate tacitly, and the place where they pass is like chopping melons and vegetables, and soon rushed into the camp of the Xiliang cavalry, although they were surrounded in it, they still did not show their flaws, and killed many Xiliang soldiers who came to besiege, and they were stunned to kill a world belonging to the three of them in the middle of the Xiliang soldiers.

The soldiers and horses on Sun Jian's left flank were all under the banner of the word "Yuan", and Yan Liang under Yuan Shao's account and Ji Ling under Yuan Shu's account were leading their subordinates to attack the Xiliang soldiers in front of them, and the soldiers and horses on the left flank were driven back and backward.

Under the fierce blows of the three forwards on the left, center, and right, Yuan Shu and Liu Biao rode side by side on horseback, looking at each other angrily, while Kong Yi, Yuan Yi, Liu Miao and others around them were all gloating, and none of the generals around them moved, just watched the three forward teams in front of them charge.
