Volume 5 The Flame of the Burning Han Chapter 31 The Fighting Generals Under the City

"Boom! Boom! Boom! The sound of the golden drum that shocked the bottom of the heart resounded in the sky, and a group of state troops appeared like an ant colony, forming a strict military formation outside Luoyang City.

Although it is said that the Bingzhou army was unable to build a large number of siege ordnance for a while, the hearts of the soldiers guarding Luoyang were still heavy...... Luoyang is no longer the Luoyang of the day! Under the continuous civil strife, many city walls have been extensively damaged, and even a few city gates are in urgent need of repair before they can be used normally, not to mention, after a series of brutal fires, the soldiers in the city are far inferior in terms of both number and fighting spirit. At this time, the army of the state army was pressing, and it cannot but be said that it was a kind of robbery.

Yuan Shaozhuo stood on top of the city tower, looking at the Bingzhou army that was still coming, and anxiety flashed in his eyes. Ding Yuan's ambition was too great, and he actually tried to wipe out himself and Dong Zhuo's side in the imperial capital! In this way, he will no longer have to resist the monopoly of the government and become an incomparable contemporary hero.

He had an unspeakable remorse in his heart, in order to contend with Dong Zhuo and Jian Shuo, and even to deal with Nanying and leave behind, he did everything possible to invite Ding Yuan to send troops to help in the war. How do you know that today, after successfully getting rid of Jian Shuo and forcing Nanying away, he and Dong Zhuo will be forced to join forces to resist Ding Yuan, which cannot but be said to be a great irony for him Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao looked at Dong Zhuo, who was standing with his sword not far away, and saw that he was still expressionless, and he couldn't see his inner thoughts at all, and his heart was even more complicated. This person was supposed to be his subordinate, but he gradually grew into a serious threat to the entire organization...... But as long as there is the slightest room for choice, Yuan Shao is never willing to join forces with him! It's all that hateful Ding Yuan. refused to send troops when besieging Xu's Mansion, and put on a sinister face looking at himself and Nanying were both defeated, which made him have to put down his posture. Agreed to Dong Zhuo's provisional covenant.

In the midst of the chaos, a group of Dong army generals such as Hua Xiong and Guo Yan rushed to the city and stood still behind Dong Zhuo. This made Yuan Shao's heart even more awe-inspiring, he was also sent out to surround Nanying's men and horses, why did Dong Jun get the news so quickly and rush back? However, He Hao, Yan Liang and others have not been able to return to Beijing so far....... he has palpitations, even if he joins forces with Yuan Shu at this time, Dong Jun still occupies an advantage in strength. This is really a response to the phrase "there are strong enemies outside, and there are troubles inside"!

A gentle sound of footsteps sounded behind him, and a familiar voice let out a low sigh, and Yuan Shao's heart was cold. He didn't reply: "What? Is it all bad news? ”

"Not bad!" Wang Yun lowered his voice behind him and said: "The messengers we sent out to ask for help have returned one after another....... Bao Xin, Zhang Yang and Wang Kuang's men and horses are still entangled by the unknown superior enemy army, and they have no power to return to the division for reinforcements!" Now, we're on our own! ”

"Who is it?" Yuan Shao said hatefully: "I never believe that there will be such a coincidence in the world? ”

"If what I expected is right, it can only be Nanying!" Wang Yun sighed and said: "These people are all arranged in the southeast line of Luoyang. Originally, it was to intercept his withdrawal to the Bohai Sea...... We can only think. This is the Bohai Navy's counteraction against us! ”

"This time it's really a cocoon!" Yuan Shao was stunned for a long time before laughing miserably: "Not only did I not solve all the enemies in Luoyang, but it caused Ding Yuan to take advantage of the gap to counterattack, I really made a mistake!" ”

"Do you want to start a backup plan?" Wang Yun said softly: "After this battle, whether it is our crushing victory or Ding Yuan's victory, Luoyang, we can't stay any longer....... in fact, what I'm most worried about is Dong Zhuo!" ”

"Let's prepare for the worst!" Yuan Shao exhaled a long breath of turbidity. Mu Ran said: "I hope that Jizhou is ready." Otherwise, we will still have an inevitable conflict with the Bohai Sea for the sake of a foothold! ”

"Look! Ding Yuan has arrived! At the head of the city, one of the generals shouted. Immediately, everyone's eyes looked in a certain direction under the city.

Nanying emerged from behind a vegetation with a gray face and looked at Luoyang City two miles away with a telescope. This hill is already the closest safety observation place to the confrontation between the two armies, and a ditch in front of the mountain that has not been dredged for a long time completely restricts the expansion of the military formation, so that Nanying is not afraid that there will be enemy scouts sneaking quietly, because even if he is located on a hill and discovers an important military situation, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive to climb the ditch, and it is very easy to cause a delay in the transmission of information, but for a lonely person like Nanying, it is very suitable.

He adjusted the telescope, and soon found Yuan Shao and Dong Zhuo and others in the city, whose faces were clearly visible.

Nan Ying was secretly happy, he looked at the sun, very carefully avoided the angle that might reflect the sun, and looked back at the camp of the state army.

In the shouts of the soldiers of the Bingzhou Army, Nan Ying just took a big man who rode out of the battle and his face was like a heavy jujube.

Ding Yuan, finally appeared!

Surrounded by dozens of generals and guards such as Lu Bu and Zhang Liao, Ding Yuan, who was dressed in gold armor, galloped out of his own formation and stopped his horse outside Luoyang City.

"Where is the original brother?" Ding Yuan's majestic voice rumbled, showing full of neutrality.

"Ding Jianyang! Do you still have the face to come to me? Hearing Ding Yuan's initiative, Yuan Shao couldn't help but shout angrily: "On that day, you and I made an appointment to protect the Han family and revitalize the dynasty, but now the court is in danger and the Han is declining...... Trying to rebel? ”

"Yuan Benchu! You don't have to be hypocritical here! Ding Yuan was not half angry, but looked up to the sky and said with a long smile: "You asked me to enter Beijing that day, and you just wanted to borrow a knife to kill people, except for Dong Zhuo and Nanying!" It's ridiculous that you have done everything today, but you have achieved nothing, you are really laughing at the world, what qualifications do you have to blame me here? ”

"Humph!" Dong Zhuo smiled slightly, and said to himself: "This Ding Jianyang is not a fool!" ”

Yuan Shao was furious when he heard this, but his face was still impassioned: "Ding Yuan, don't you want to sow discord!" I and Zhong Ying, Highway and others swept away the traitorous party and helped the young master, and their hearts can show the sun and the moon, and you support the army and respect yourself, and the soldiers are trapped in the imperial capital, what is the difference between Han Sui and Han Sui at that time? If you don't get lost and find your way back, today's evil deeds will spread all over the world, and you will always be despised by people with lofty ideals in the world! ”

"That's righteous!" Ding Yuan saw that the faces of the generals around him changed slightly, but he was unmoved, and he said lightly: "It's just that success or failure in the world has always been like this, if I win in the end today, then the only person who bears the shame can only be you...... It's a pity that the Yuan family has four generations and three dukes, but its name and glory will be ruined because of you Yuan Shao alone, look at what face you will have to see the ancestors of the Yuan family after you die? ”

"The whole army obeys the order!" Ding Yuan slowly turned his horse's head and shouted at the banner commander: "Prepare to attack the city!" ”

"Not good!" Wang Yun in the city was shocked and said, "Ding Yuan is so eager to launch an offensive? He's afraid of long nights and dreams! ”

"General!" He hurriedly said to Yuan Shao: "We must delay time, even if we can't wait for the Northern Army to return to the division for reinforcements, we must also buy more time for the soldiers defending the city to consolidate the city defense!" ”

"Procrastinating?" Yuan Shao's heart was confused, and he said with annoyance: "How to delay? If Yan Liang and Wen Chou are both there, we can still slow down the method of fighting, and now ......."

"Primatim! Are you deceiving your brother and having no one under him? Dong Zhuo suddenly smiled, he turned his head to his subordinate generals and shouted, "Have you all heard the words of the lieutenant of the middle army?" Who dares to go out of town to challenge? ”

"The last will go!" Hua Xiong was the first to jump out and shouted: "I heard that Ying Yang Zhonglang said that Lu Bu, under Ding Yuan, is the first in the world, and the last general will not accept it!" Willing to go out of the city to challenge! ”

"Good! There you go! Dong Zhuo said happily: "I also want to let these fools know that the world's fierce generals, where do they come from?" ”

In Wang Yun's expectant gaze, Yuan Shao could only nod helplessly in agreement.

"Drum cheers!" In the sound of the majestic horn, one heavy drum after another was beaten, and in an instant, the blood of the soldiers on both sides was boiling.

"Huh?" Ding Yuan, who was about to issue a combat order, turned around, looked at the gradually opening Luoyang City Gate in amazement, and blurted out: "How dare you challenge the general?" Such a superficial procrastination plan, do you also want to induce Ben to be fooled? ”

"Ignore him!" He shouted, "Keep preparing ......"

"General, slow!" Lu Bu opened his mouth and said: "Our army's morale is insufficient, but the enemy army has the heart to fight to the death, if there can be a big victory that makes him exhausted, he can get twice the result with half the effort in the next battle!" ”

"This?" Ding Yuan hesitated for a while.

Zhang Liao also shouted: "General Ding! Our soldiers have always been conceited and brave, and if they don't even dare to respond to the enemy's initiative to fight, the morale of the soldiers will fall...... Think again, general! ”

"In this way, it is right in their arms!" Ding Yuan was a little helpless, he stared at Lu Bu and Zhang Liao and said, "In that case, who are the two of you going to fight?" Be sure to win the battle, and never lose your sharpness! ”

"Kill chickens with a knife?" Zhang Liao shouted violently: "Of course, it will be the last general to fight!" ”

While speaking, at the opening of the Luoyang City Gate, a general in black helmet and black armor flashed out, rode his horse straight across the moat, and roared with a spear: "Liangzhou Huaxiong is here, can anyone dare to fight with me?" ”

"It's Huaxiong?" Lu Bu seemed to be a little uninterested and said: "This person, don't fight!" Let's go to Wenyuan for a hard trip! ”

"General Lu, don't worry!" Zhang Liao laughed and said: "If the enemy Yan Liang and Wen Chou go to battle, it will not be too late for the general to clean it up himself!" ”

Ding Yuan saw that the two of them were talking and laughing, and he made a decision on his own, and he was unhappy for a while, and said coldly: "Okay! Wen Yuan is still not going to fight quickly? If he loses, he will not be spared! ”

"The last will be ordered!" Zhang Liao heard Ding Yuan's displeasure, he lowered his head, successfully concealed a trace of anger on his face, clamped his legs, and galloped towards Hua Xiong on the opposite side.

In the tsunami-like shouts of the distant mountains, Nan Ying looked at the two generals who took the other side like arrows, couldn't help but smile, and whispered to himself: "Huaxiong to Zhang Liao? I've never heard of this, but who is more powerful of these two boys? ”

He brought the telescope closer to his eyes: "I'm really looking forward to it!" (To be continued......)
