Seeing that all the soldiers except his own private army beside him were whispering, he shouted: "Don't panic, all the troops, come with me, and see how the old man kills the enemy!" ”

With a sense of pride, he said to the scout: "Send the order, immediately let the various departments move closer to me, and try to avoid contact with the people of Shu and Xiliang." At the same time, he sent people to inform Wang Situ and others, so that they could protect the Son of Heaven and send troops to support and beat the enemy out. ”

The crowd was infected by his emotions, and their courage increased and they cheered up. The other defeated armies in the city also moved closer to Chong Fu, and under the leadership of Chong Fu, they marched towards Tongyuan in the north of Chang'an City.

The two armies soon met in the city, and without saying a word, they fired at each other in a wave, and then gradually approached, trying to decide the victory in hand-to-hand combat.

After a moment of fighting, the two sides fought inextricably. Tong Yuanbu is an elite soldier, has been in battle for a long time, and has high morale.

There are many people on this side, and there are no less than 2,000 people in his own tribes, doormen, and slaves and maids, plus many chaotic troops, the number is far greater than that of Tong Yuan, who has already divided his troops.

Hu Lang'er, Huang Yu and others seized the advantageous terrain, so that the army could line up to meet the enemy, and relied on the house to give full play to their bow and crossbow advantages. And it is not simple to plant a whisk, let the people be cannon fodder to consume the arrows and physical strength of the Xiliang Army, and secretly arrange manpower to divide and surround it, and tightly restrict the activity area of the Xiliang Army.

Seeing this, Tong Yuan couldn't help asking: "The enemy in front is so fierce, who is commanding the troops to be my enemy?" ”

Zhang Lu next to him was more familiar with the officialdom, and said: "The leader is too often a kind of brush, this person is a native of Luoyang, Sili, born in the family of the minister, there are many subordinates and guests, and he is Wang Yun's sworn friend." ”

Tong Yuan said helplessly: "These Dashi clans are not easy to deal with, don't be enemies if we can fight for them in the future, but Wang Yun's dead friends must be eliminated."

Zhang Lu said: "After our army entered the city, it controlled the East and West Cities and a large number of refugees, and has achieved enough results, and now that the gates are being taken one after another, why not wait for the friendly forces to converge before breaking Zhongfu?"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Lu gestured to Tong Yuan with his eyes.

Tong Yuan knew that Zhang Lu had something to say, so he ordered: "The whole army temporarily retreats to the line close to the Chucheng Gate and Dongshi, stretches the enemy's battle line, and waits for the friendly forces to attack."

Sure enough, the rebellious army under Zhong Fu saw the temporary repulsion of the enemy army and hailed victory, but when Zhong Fu ordered the recapture of the other two gates north of the city, these guerrillas were scattered but unwilling to pursue.

It's not a morale issue, it's a matter of skill and physical strength.

These refugees in the city were originally pulled into the city for defense, and they were allocated very little food these days, and they didn't even have enough water. A fight just now, exhausted their physical reserves, and even if they won the initial victory at this moment, they had no strength to start a pursuit.

In addition, these people have less training, and they often use all their strength to scream and smash weapons as soon as they fight, and they do not know how to distribute physical strength. Half an hour later, I was so tired that I couldn't pick up my weapon.

Therefore, Hu Lang'er and other old people in the army know very well that these recruits are not durable to fight, and an important part of recruit training is not to use up their strength as soon as they start fighting, but to do their best when they should be hard, and to save when they should not spend their energy.

At this moment, of course, Zhong Fu could not order the rebellious army that had lost its strength and lacked reorganization to continue the pursuit, so he had to stick to the northeast of Chang'an City.

Tong Yuan and Zhang Lu led the troops to take a short rest, and Tong Yuan asked Zhang Lu separately what he could do.

Zhang Lu looked around and found that Hu Zhen and the others were far away, and said: "According to the scout's information, now that the three directions of the west, south, and north have broken through, our army is bound to win. But why should we waste our strength instead of retrieving what was hidden in the treasury of the Dong family? ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Tong Yuan's eyes, yes, he had long wanted to maximize his interests in this battle, instead of wasting his own troops, but he had never found the direction, Zhang Lu said that he had recovered the original things, which were obviously the property that Dong Zhuo had robbed before.

Zhang Lu said: "There are two cities and residences in the northwest of Chang'an City, which have been protected by us, and there are many weapons and equipment in the south of the city, which are estimated to be occupied by others."

"Now many soldiers and horses must be besieging palaces such as Weiyang Palace in the southwest of the city, and why don't we take the opportunity to empty the treasury?"

Tong Yuan's pupils shrank, and he couldn't help but be frightened by Zhang Lu's words and thoughts. Emptying the treasury is really in line with the style of Zhang Lu and other unloading people.

However, Tong Yuan thought about robbing the treasury or large households, it is indeed the fastest way to accumulate wealth, but how is this behavior different from a thief? The New Xiliang Army is already a new army, and it should not follow the old path again. Moreover, the Han Dynasty has not yet died, and the grain and property of the treasury are the key to supporting the lives of the people and the operation of the imperial court in the next few years.

Tong Yuan didn't want to be a real national thief and pushed down the big man. However, he had an idea for it.

"Zhang Sima has a clever plan, but we don't need to take the treasury property, but we should send troops to protect our property."

Zhang Lu didn't understand what Tong Yuan wanted to do, and thought that his sense of morality exploded and he was going to do something stupid. In his later life, Tong Yuan had seen a lot of yin and yang in college, so he naturally observed Zhang Lu's doubts.

He continued: "Some of the most important things are nominal. If we guard the treasury for the imperial court, we are true fools. ”

"But what if we're guarding the property we moved from the Dock? That's justice. ”

Zhang Lu was confused when he heard this, and couldn't help asking, "Is this ...... What's the difference? How? ”

Tong Yuan replied: "You only need to send troops to guard the treasury, and claim to the rest of the Xiliang army that this is the property of Yiwu and belongs to the Dong family." When he met the Son of Heaven, he restored the reputation of Dong Taishi and returned the wealth of Yiwu. ”

This is justified and a reward for all. If we move the treasury ourselves, firstly, other soldiers and horses will also ask for a share of the property, and secondly, we will be spurned by the imperial court. When the time comes, we will fall behind. ”

Zhang Lu was impressed, Tong Yuan summoned the military officials, publicly explained and issued orders, and the whole army was excited to hear that the property would eventually be distributed to him, and soon completed the occupation and defense of the treasury.

......

After repelling the attack of Luochengmen again, Chong Fu couldn't help but wonder a little, the movement in the north was so big, it could be said that the killing sound shook the sky, Wang Yun was stationed on the tower of Xuanpingmen not far away, why was there no news for so long.

Before he could send someone to ask, Dong Jiahu came to the direction of Luocheng Gate from a general who was not tall but conspicuously dressed. If anyone had a telescope for the afterlife, they would find out that this person was actually a young girl.

However, contrary to the harmony, she held the Meteor Hammer in her hand and ordered the servants to launch a new round of attacks.

"Rush!"

The big sword behind Dong Bai waved, and the servants led a large number of soldiers to carry the long ladder, let out a wolf-like howl, and rushed to the city gate.
