When Dong Zhuo and the others left, leaving only Li Ru and Jia Xu, Jia Xu immediately invited Li Ru into the mansion for a detailed discussion.

Li Ru then followed Jia Xu into the living room of the house.

After the two sat down, Jia Xu took the lead and said, "Master Li, I don't know what Prime Minister Dong wants me to do?" ”

"Mr. Jia, my lord wants to send troops to fight against Wang Kai and Gai Xun, but the troops that our department can mobilize are a little scarce, my lord plans to recruit the rebels in Liangzhou and collect them for his own use, and Mr. Jia is the candidate for this envoy, after all, Mr. Jia is from Liangzhou."

Hearing this, Jia Xu quickly shook it in his heart.

Soon, Jia Xu replied: "Master Li, the lower officials will start to prepare." ”

Seeing that Jia Xu agreed so quickly, Li Ru added: "Mr. Jia, this mission, whether it is successful or not, I hope you can return safely!" ”

"Thank you Lord Li for your concern, and the officials will remember it in their hearts!"

"That's fine, then I'll stay soon, if Mr. Jia is ready, come to look for me, and I can arrange an escort for Mr. Jia."

"Jia Xu understands."

Immediately, Li Ru left Jia Xu's residence.

After Jia Xu saw Li Ru leaving, he immediately rearranged his luggage.

In the early morning of the next day, Jia Xu, who had finished preparation, immediately went to Li Ru's office.

When Li Ru learned of Jia Xu's arrival, he immediately transferred the elite of the Fifty Flying Bear Army to Jia Xu.

After Jia Xu took over the guards, Li Ru told again: "Mr. Jia, go to Liangzhou, I hope you must return safely!" ”

Hearing this, Jia Xu thanked him again and then set off.

When Li Ru saw Jia Xu's figure walking farther and farther, he immediately returned to Dong Zhuo's side and reported the matter to him.

Dong Zhuo learned that Jia Xu had set off, and he immediately said: "Wen You, since Jia Xu has already set off, then we must also speed up the deployment of defenses, so that we can deploy troops to attack Wang Kai and Gai Xun." ”

"The minister is stepping up to deal with this."

Dong Zhuo nodded, and then let Li Ru retreat.

After talking about Dong Zhuo's movements, he turned back to Wang Kai's side.

After Wang Kai and Gai Xun led their troops to evacuate, they soon passed through Hangu Pass and entered the Jingzhaoyin territory.

Walking to the vicinity of Chang'an City, Gai Xun immediately said to Wang Kai: "Wang Anxi, this encirclement and suppression of Dong Thief ended in failure, where do you plan to go next?" ”

"This ......"

Seeing that Wang Kai wanted to speak and stopped, Gai Xun immediately asked: "What is there to hide in Wang Anxi?" ”

"Not really, I suddenly found myself with nowhere to go."

"So that's the case, then Wang Anxi might as well go to Chang'an City with me to station, and in the spring of the next year, the allies will make a comeback, and it will be easier for us to march from Chang'an."

After hearing Gai Xun's proposal, Wang Kai suddenly pondered, because he didn't really want to send someone to the fence in his heart, but he had no place to stand now.

After thinking about it again and again, Wang Kai finally decided to follow Gai Xun to Chang'an to station.

Immediately, Wang Kai replied: "Lord Gai, then I will bother you." ”

"Wang Anxi, what are these words, you and I are both Hanchen, and we should help each other."

When Wang Kai heard this, he immediately smiled slightly.

In this way, Wang Kaibu followed Gai Xun and marched towards Chang'an City.

A few days later.

Gai Xun and Wang Kai finally led their troops into Chang'an City.

After settling in Chang'an City, Wang Kai and Gai Xun immediately began to recruit the strong enough to attack Dong Zhuo again in the coming year.

At the same time, after returning to the fiefdom, the princes of all walks of life also began to recuperate and prepare for another battle in the coming year.

Then turn back to Dong Zhuo's side.

After Li Ru rearranged the armament of the various passes, he immediately came to Dong Zhuo and reported the matter to him.

Knowing that Li Ru had already arranged it, Dong Zhuo immediately ordered to start recruiting troops and horses.

A few days later, Dong Zhuo also mobilized 40,000 soldiers and horses that could go to battle.

When the army was assembled, Dong Zhuo immediately ordered Lu Bu to be the vanguard and take the lead, while he himself sat in charge of the Chinese army.

When Lü Bu's vanguard army entered Jing Zhaoyin's territory, Gai Xun quickly received the news.

When he learned that Lu Bu led his troops to appear in Jing Zhaoyin's territory, Gai Xun immediately found Wang Kai and said to him: "Wang Anxi, something is wrong. ”

"What's the matter with Lord Gai's panic?"

"Wang Anxi, Lu Bu led the cavalry to appear in the realm of Jing Zhaoyin."

"What? How could Lu Bu appear? He is the righteous son of Dong thief, and he has always been by Dong thief's side, if he appears, it doesn't mean that Dong thief has sent troops. ”

"I think so too, it seems that Dong Thief is planning to take advantage of the rest of the princes to recuperate and deal with us first."

"Lord Gai, I wonder how long the food and city defense equipment in Chang'an City can last?"

"Wang Anxi, let me tell you the truth, the grain stock in Chang'an City has been used up a lot during the crusade against the rebels in Liangzhou, but the equipment to defend the city is still sufficient."

"Lord Gai, do you mean that there is not enough food in Chang'an City?"

"That's true, if you add the amount of money under Wang Anxi's command, the food in Chang'an City is only enough for us to eat for three months."

"Three months, it's enough, Dong thief wants to fight, then we will fight to the end."

When Gai Xun heard this, his blood immediately boiled.

Afterwards, Gai Xun and Wang Kai immediately began to strengthen the city walls and prepared for a protracted battle.

Besides, after Lu Bu's vanguard army entered the territory of Jing Zhaoyin, he quickly led his troops to the city of Chang'an and stationed down to wait for Dong Zhuo's main army.

After Wang Kai and Gai Xun in the city saw Lu Bu leading his troops to camp outside the east gate of Chang'an, Gai Xun immediately proposed to Wang Kai: "Wang Anxi, Lu Bu has just arrived, should we go out of the city and attack the camp?" ”

"Lord Gai, since Lu Bu appears here, it means that the army of Dong thieves must follow behind, and there is no need to go out of the city to attack the camp, in case Dong thieves lead the army to kill, it will be difficult for us to withdraw to the city."

After a few glances like this, Wang Kai and Gai Xun went down to the city tower and went back to rest, because Lu Bu's soldiers and horses were not enough to attack the city.

Besides, after Lu Bu set up the camp, he immediately came to Luoyang City single-handedly and shouted loudly.

Hearing Lu Bu's call, Luo Cheng on the city tower suddenly had signs of being unable to help it.

Seeing this, Qin Qiong hurriedly reminded Luo Cheng and asked him not to be rash.

After Luo Cheng got Qin Qiong's reminder, he finally endured it.

Lu Bu shouted for a while and found that no one from Qin Qiong and Luo Cheng came out, he immediately retreated helplessly.

Not long after Lu Bu returned to the camp, Dong Zhuo's army finally arrived and joined forces with Lu Bu.

Soon, Dong Zhuo summoned Lu Bu and asked, "Feng Xian, you went to call the battle today, did Wang Kai and Gai Xun go out of the city to fight?" ”

"Father-in-law, this Wang Kai and Gai Xun have now become shrinking turtles, no matter how I shout, they are all closed."

At this time, Li Ru, who was beside Dong Zhuo, interjected: "Lord, it seems that we can only carry out siege warfare. ”

"Well, since Wang Kai and Gai Xun are not fooled, then we will forcibly take Chang'an City."

Dong Zhuo ordered a night's rest, and then he ordered the whole army to start attacking Chang'an City.

Wang Kai and Gai Xun saw that Dong Zhuo led his troops to attack the city, and the two of them immediately commanded the defense of the city on the city tower.
