Forty miles could be completed quickly, and in just one hour, Lu Zhi's vanguard appeared outside the Tiger Prison Pass.

The reason why Lu Zhi was in such a hurry to rush to the Tiger Prison Pass was precisely because he received the news that the Tiger Prison Pass had been broken by Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses not long ago.

The Tiger Prison was broken, and this news was very bad for Lu Zhi.

He received an order from the imperial court to go back to rescue Luoyang, and he knew that the emperor must have been jealous of Liu Zheng's siege of the Tiger Prison, otherwise he would not let him suddenly move back to the court to rescue him in a good situation.

And now that Liu Zheng has broken the Tiger Prison, once this news is transmitted back to Luoyang, it will inevitably make Emperor Han Ling of Luoyang feel some worries.

If Lu Zhi could not stop or eliminate Liu Zheng's troops and horses before they reached Luoyang, the imperial court would definitely blame Lu Zhi.

For this reason, it is a small matter to suffer, in case Liu Zheng really broke Luoyang City and captured Emperor Han Ling alive, it would be a matter of shaking the world.

Lu Zhi can't afford to be charged.

Therefore, Lu Zhi rushed from Xingyang County to the Tiger Prison Pass overnight, trying to stop Liu Zheng when he left the Tiger Prison Pass.

And Liu Zheng did not plan to leave the Tiger Prison Pass to attack Luoyang.

The reason why he wanted to occupy the Tiger Prison Pass was not to attack Luoyang at all. Instead, he wanted to block Lu Zhi's attack in front of the Tiger Prison Pass.

If there is no Tiger Prison Pass, Liu Zheng will have to fight with Lu Zhi's men and horses in the wild, which is not a good thing for Liu Zheng, if there is a Tiger Prison Pass as a support, Liu Zheng will be stable.

You can directly kill Luoyang, and you can rely on the thick walls of the Tiger Prison Pass to slowly compete with Lu Zhi.

And Lu Zhi didn't want to fight a tug-of-war with Liu Zheng, so he decided to kill the tiger prison as soon as possible.

But when Lu Zhi really arrived at the Tiger Prison Pass, Lu Zhi realized that Liu Zheng was difficult.

Lu Zhi has been fighting with these Yellow Turban Army for several months, and naturally he knows the strength of the Yellow Turban Army very well.

If someone told him that a group of Yellow Turban soldiers could break the Tiger Prison Pass in just one day before coming to the Tiger Prison Pass, Lu Zhi would not believe anything.

But when he saw with his own eyes that it was burned and dilapidated, and even the city wall was a black tiger prison, Lu Zhi sighed that there were also capable people in the Yellow Turban Army.

Originally, he didn't think much of Liu Zheng, who was admired by both Huangfu Song and Dong Zhuo, but after seeing the appearance of the Tiger Prison, he knew that Liu Zheng was indeed a difficult opponent!

Tiger Prison Pass is one of the eight male passes of Gongwei Luoyang, it is extremely difficult to break the Tiger Prison Pass, and the predecessors have tried many ways, but it is difficult to break the Tiger Prison Pass.

But right now, the Tiger Prison Pass was broken by Liu Zheng in just one day, successfully occupied the Tiger Prison Pass, and changed the flag of the Tiger Prison Pass.

But the strategy of fire attack was not thought of at all before, or if it was thought of, there was no chance to realize it at all.

Liu Zheng was able to break the tiger prison in such a short period of time, which shows Liu Zheng's cleverness, which makes Lu Zhi have to be vigilant.

"Teacher, we have arrived outside the Tiger Prison Pass, do we want to attack the city directly?"

In the big tent of the officers and soldiers outside the Tiger Prison Pass, Lu Zhi looked at the sand table in front of him silently, it takes a day to go from the Tiger Prison Pass to Luoyang, but if you use cavalry, you can go back and forth in half a day.

Gongsun Zhan was wearing armor, standing in the military tent, looking at Lu Zhi and asking Lu Zhi if he wanted to attack the Tiger Prison Pass directly.

After all, the gate of the Tiger Prison has been broken, the new gate has not been repaired, and the current gate is just a temporary pile of wood, if it is a siege, Lu Zhi's soldiers and horses are much simpler than when Liu Zheng first attacked the city.

Lu Zhi was interrupted by Gongsun Chan in his contemplation, raised his head, and glanced at Gongsun Chan.

"Bogui (Gongsun Zhan's cousin), don't rush to attack the city."

When Gongsun Zhan heard Lu Zhi's words, his expression changed slightly, and he asked with some curiosity.

"Teacher, let's hurry in the starry night to this tiger prison, why don't we attack the city as soon as possible?"

"Brother Bogui, Lord Lu Zhi said that he would not attack the city, naturally he has a reason, we just need to listen to Lord Lu Zhi's arrangement, now we have raised troops to come, with more than 40,000 soldiers and horses, as long as we surround the Tiger Prison Pass, then Liu Zheng will definitely not be able to run."

Lu Zhi didn't speak, so Wang Yi spoke first, half-jokingly saying a word to Gongsun Zhan.

Wang Yi and Gongsun Zhan are also acquaintances, and the two can be regarded as brothers.

Gongsun Chan was originally a noble child, and because of his handsome appearance and loud voice, he was recruited as a son-in-law by the Taishou at that time, and because of his father-in-law's recommendation, he worshipped Lu Zhi as a teacher, but Gongsun Chan actually worshipped Taiwei Liu Kuan as a teacher in addition to Lu Zhi.

Wang Yi is a student of Taiwei Liu Kuan. Because Wang Yi and Gongsun Zan are also friends.

In the military tent, in addition to Gongsun Zan and Wang Yi, there are a few people, Yin He Miao of Henan, and Liu Bei, the famous founding emperor of the Shu Han Dynasty in history, all here.

"I have the same opinion as Brother Bogui, we should take advantage of the fact that those yellow turban thieves have not yet gained a firm foothold, go directly into the city, kill those yellow turban thieves without leaving a piece of armor, and then go to Luoyang to receive the reward, otherwise once we surround the tiger prison, those yellow turban thieves have no way to survive, and if they desperately attack Luoyang, I am afraid that we will all have to be buried with us."

He Miao didn't have any brains, what he was most worried about at this time was that the Yellow Turban Army would attack Luoyang, because once Luoyang was attacked, they would inevitably be implicated, and when the emperor was angry, it would be possible to directly cut off their heads.

"Yes, I also think that the city should be attacked, now that the city gate is unstable, with my white horse from the main gate, I can definitely kill most of those yellow turban thieves, let them see the power of my Youzhou cavalry, I heard that Dong Zhuo said, this Liu Zheng has an elite cavalry, I can just see it."

Gongsun Zhan was more belligerent, especially when he was in Jizhou, he saw Dong Zhuo and pulled Dong Zhuo to compete with the cavalry.

But Dong Zhuo told him that his cavalry was defeated by Liu Zheng, and there were not many people left, and they did not compete with Gongsun Zhan. In this way, Gongsun Chan knew that these yellow turban thieves actually had a powerful cavalry.

aroused Gongsun Zhan's belligerent heart and wanted to fight against Liu Zheng against the cavalry.

And after Lu Zhi heard the conversation between Gongsun Zhan and He Miao and others, he just touched his beard and did not speak.

Seeing Liu Bei who was silent, Lu Zhi had a whim and immediately asked Liu Bei.

"Xuande, they are all discussing the matter of attacking the Tiger Prison Pass, why don't you say a word? Don't you have an idea? ”
