Chapter 349: Deputy General Xu Rong

Li Ru, Guo Yan and Fan Chou fled to Dong Zhuo in the palace with a large number of remnants.

As soon as Li Ru fled, Lu Bu and Cao Cao did not continue the pursuit, and the two of them each led an army, and instead killed the side of Luoyang City Gate, wanting to join forces with Sun Jian and others.

Lu Bu and Cao Cao are both people who know how to fight, knowing that the two armies are fighting, victory or defeat is another matter, there must be a way out, at this time, open the Luoyang City Gate and occupy a retreat first, which is more important than beating the water dogs and killing Dong Zhuo.

"The state army listened to the order, followed Ben Hou to kill, broke through the city gate, and broke through Luoyang." Lu Bu stabbed Fang Tian's halberd into the sky, roared, clamped his feet, rode his horse and galloped, and rushed directly towards the city gate guarded by Niu Fu and Xu Rong.

"Yuan Rang, Zixiao, poor Kou Mo chasing, Dong Zhuo is already at the end of the crossbow, defeat is just an overnight moment, don't rush for a while, I will also follow behind Lu Bu, help Sun Jian and Lu Bu, first open a city gate." Cao Cao had lost a seven-star sword before, so he had to scrape a Qinghong sword again, and at this time pointed at the gate of Luoyang with his sword, and hurriedly persuaded Xia Houdun and Cao Ren.

Cao Cao's face was full of spring, as if he had seen Dong Zhuo fall, and the new owner of Luoyang City was Cao Cao Cao Mengde.

Luoyang City, above the city wall.

Niu Fu is one head and two big, Sun Jianjun under the city seems to be crazy, regardless of it, he actually wants to attack the city with more than a thousand soldiers and horses, which is obviously to send him to death, but even if Sun Jianjun's soldiers and horses are killed by Niu Fu's guards, their eyes are still angry, looking at the city wall, at least those soldiers who were seriously injured and fell to the ground did not shout or scream, but just desperately squirmed in the direction of the Luoyang city wall, without giving up.

This kind of will, this kind of perseverance, made Niu Fu and Xu Rong more and more frightened the more they fought, for fear that there would be a mistake in the Luoyang city wall.

However, Sun Jian was very defensive, but when Niu Fu and Xu Rong saw that the army of Zhuhou outside Luoyang City had moved, the two looked at each other, and then their faces were like ashes, without blood, and this city wall was difficult to defend.

Niu Fu now hopes that Taishi Dong Zhuo can receive some rumors, so as to transfer the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to help in advance, after all, the battle between Li Ru and Lu Bu just now, the battle between the two armies, although Niu Fu was not at the scene, but standing on the city wall, he can see some of them, this Li Ru is afraid that he will not be able to lead the army to come to help Niu Fu.

In fact, without Lu Bu, it is not all bad for Dong Zhuo, at least the generals who command the Xiliang army no longer have two hearts and crush each other. As long as Dong Zhuo does not fall, these Xiliang generals who were born in Xiliang and have ordinary identities will unite and forcibly reach a consensus.

"General, outside the city, there are three armies of Sun Jianjun, Cheng Yuanzhi and Yuan Shaojun to attack, and not far from the city gate, Lu Bujun and Cao Cao's army are also about to be killed. Seeing that the army under the command of Taishi has not moved, it seems that there will be no reinforcements for the time being, and I hope that the general will make a decision as soon as possible. Xu Rong, the deputy general of the defenders of Luoyang City, carried a steel gun and came to Niu Fu's side, covered in blood, and gave a military salute to Niu Fu with a fist, and asked Niu Fu in a slow voice.

Xu Rong is a military general with a good foundation, and in the face of thousands of troops, there is still no trace of panic. Xu Rong didn't panic, but he also knew that this city wall might not be able to be defended, and the reason why he let Niu Fu make the decision was because he wanted to see Niu Fu's idea.

Is it a fight to the death and no retreat? Or abandon the pass and flee, break out, and join Dong Zhuo? Or even switch to surrender and turn against each other?

All of this has to be decided by Niu Fu, the defender of Luoyang City.

Niu Fu, who was already extremely irritable, heard Xu Rong's question, and couldn't wait to slash the scimitar in his hand forward, splitting Xu Rong in half.

Dong Zhuo is not here, Li Ru is not here, and there will be a Lu Bu who is fighting for power and profit with Niu Fu in the future, and now Lu Bu has jumped back, Niu Fu's side is clean, but things are playing big, and trouble is one after another.

That's right, the Lu Bu army in the city was the Bingzhou army that Niu Fu drove out of the military camp with the Xiliang Iron Cavalry before, Niu Fu had just been defeated at that time, and returned to Dong Zhuo, although Dong Zhuo did not punish Niu Fu for the sake of Niu Fu is son-in-law, but also sent Niu Fu to guard the Luoyang city wall and be responsible for the first line of defense in the capital Luoyang.

With such an arrangement, it can be seen that Dong Zhuo still trusts Niu Fu very much.

Niu Fu and the army had just been deployed, only to find that the Xiliang Iron Cavalry under Niu Fu had no military camp to station, and this city wall could not accommodate Niu Fu's army, so Niu Fu started Lu Bu's idea. Niu Fu privately invoked Dong Zhuo's military order and ordered the state army to give up the barracks and give Niu Fu's Xiliang Iron Cavalry to enjoy.

Afterwards, Niu Fu also secretly refreshed, deeply feeling that Lu Bu was too faced, not like a man, and became a dog.

But now that Lu Bu has launched a ruthless attack, Niu Fu panicked, for fear that the Luoyang city wall would not be able to hold it, and he would have to take his own life.

"General Xu, you are also the deputy general of Luoyang City Defense, from your point of view, we are deeply affected by Taishi Longen, and at this time, we are being attacked on all sides, where should we be?" Niu Fu kicked the problem back to Xu Rong like a ball.

Whether to fight or surrender, it is up to Xu Rong to decide. If it is a battle, then Xu Rong will have to show his might, rush to the front, grow his majesty for Niu Fu, increase morale, at least if he surrenders, Niu Fu also wants to hear Xu Rong's opinion, which way to surrender?

If you choose the wrong direction, you will lose your life in vain, such as Yuan Shao on the waiting side, no matter what, Niu Fu will not surrender to Yuan Shao, even if he fights to the last soldier, it is better than defecting to Yuan Shao.

The fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family, with a great reputation, everyone wants to make friends with the children of the Yuan family, but others can, Niu Fu can't, it's not that Niu Fu is unwilling, but Dong Zhuo has done too much, and has uprooted the Yuan family in Luoyang City, even if it is Sikong Yuan Kui, Dong Zhuo also killed him.

At this time, even if he surrendered to Yuan Shao, it wouldn't be long before Yuan Shao would be liquidated afterwards, and Niu Fu and the others would also not be able to eat and walk around.

The only ones left are Cheng Yuanzhi, Sun Jian, Cao Cao and Lu Bu, in fact, Niu Fu also excluded Sun Jian in his heart, this Sun Jian was born in Jiangdong, and Niu Fu and others are from Xiliang, who are not accustomed to water and soil, and are prone to contradictions.

After thinking about it, Niu Fu couldn't make a decision.

Xu Rong didn't expect that Niu Fu, who was very arbitrary in the past, would actually ask Xu Rong's opinion, he didn't have time to think about it, Xu Rong had to make a slight judgment on the situation in front of him, and selected the two most suitable paths for Niu Fu to choose.
