Lü Bu fled into the Tiger Prison Pass in panic, but the 30,000 Liangzhou Iron Cavalry he brought out of the city was not so lucky, because Dong Zhuo was afraid that the coalition army would follow and rush into the Tiger Prison Pass, so after Lü Bu entered the city, he hurriedly ordered the city gate to be closed.

The allied forces of the princes annihilated the more than 20,000 Xiliang troops who stayed outside the Tiger Prison Pass, and won a great victory!

Looking at the Xiliang army that was too frightened to open the city gate again, the three Liu Yu brothers and the princes all laughed, and the morale of the princes' coalition army was also like a rainbow.

However, Yuan Shao, as the leader of the coalition alliance, did not do so.

"Collect the whole army!" Yuan Shao ordered.

Cao Cao was beside Yuan Shao, and when he heard Yuan Shao's order to withdraw his troops at this time, he was directly shocked.

"Huh." Liu Yu also smiled, his expression was quite a hint of banter, he had long known that this would happen.

This time the princes joined forces to fight against Dong, except for Cao Cao, who really wanted to destroy Dong Zhuo in one go, the other princes, who did not preserve their strength and only planned to pursue their own interests, were able to destroy Dong Zhuo in one go.

The news of the alliance of the princes and the victory of the coalition over Lu Bu in the Battle of Tiger Pass also spread quickly.

……

It is said that the coalition army broke through the Bishui Pass, and fought against Lu Bu under the Tiger Pass, annihilating nearly 30,000 Xiliang troops, and at the same time of successive victories, Sun Jian had just collected the remnants of the defeated soldiers by Huaxiong, seeing that there were less than 3,000 soldiers and horses left, and hearing that the coalition forces had won many victories, Sun Jian beat his chest and cried.

"Yuan Shu thief misunderstood me!"

He Sun Jian is also one of the princes of the Nineteenth Road, but in addition to attacking Bishui Pass as the vanguard of the coalition army at the beginning, he beheaded Huaxiong, broke Bishui Pass, and fought against Lu Bu in the Tiger Prison Pass, etc., without his participation, and he was also defeated by Huaxiong, losing most of his troops, and his Sun Jian's so-called Jiangdong Tigers almost became a laughing stock, all because of Yuan Shu.

After returning to the coalition camp with less than 3,000 remnants of the army, Sun Jian took Cheng Pu and Huang Gai to question Yuan Shu angrily.

"Highway, I have no enmity with that Dong Zhuo, now I am desperate, risking my life to fight to the death, the upper is for the country to seek thieves, and the lower is for the private interests of the general's family, but the general listens to slander and does not give food and grass, resulting in my defeat at the hands of Huaxiong, how can the general be safe?"

Facing Sun Jian's questioning, Yuan Shu was terrified, knowing that this matter was indeed something he did wrong, although the result met his expectations and pitted Sun Jian half to death, but he still had to give Sun Jian an explanation, otherwise Sun Jian would definitely not give up with him.

After thinking about it, Yuan Shu suddenly looked at the strategist beside him, and angrily pointed at him and said to Sun Jian: "It is this person who gives advice and does not give food and grass." ”

This strategist was also a little clever, and instantly understood that Yuan Shu was trying to use him to atone for Sun Jian, and immediately said in fear: "General, it's not all the meaning of the villain." ”

"Dare to deny it!" Yuan Shu scolded angrily, the heart is not exactly what you want, it is difficult to make the father-in-law guilty, of course, you have to bear all the blame, so the soldier who was guarding outside the tent said: "Come on, pull this person down and cut it down!" ”

The strategist fell to his knees in fright and cried out for mercy: "General, spare your life." ”

It's a pity, how could Yuan Shu not only intend to take him for his crimes, but also how could he spare his life.

Several soldiers rushed in, grabbed the strategist, pulled him out, cut him down, and presented his head to Sun Jian.

Sun Jian glanced at the head of this blind strategist, and only sneered.

Yuan Shu stepped forward and confessed: "I misheard the villain's words, and I ask the lord to forgive me." ”

In order to obtain Sun Jian's forgiveness, Yuan Shu had a good attitude, and also respected Sun Jian as a 'lord', in his opinion, this can be regarded as giving Sun Jian enough face.

Sun Jian smiled, of course he didn't want to forgive Yuan Shu in his heart, but he was defeated by Huaxiong and lost his troops. ”

"What Wentai said is extremely true." Yuan Shu smiled and said yes.

At this time, a soldier suddenly came to report to Sun Jian: "General, there is something in the village, please return quickly." ”

"So, Sun Jian said goodbye." Sun Jian resigned from Yuan Shu and returned to his military camp.

When he returned to the army camp, Sun Jian learned that the person who came was Li Dao, one of the generals under Dong Zhuo.

"Li Dao?" Sun Jian smiled shamelessly, but asked, "What are you doing here with me?" ”

Li Wei replied with a smile: "I came on the orders of the prime minister." ”

Sun Jian was puzzled: "What did Dong Zhuo send you for?" ”

Li Dao said: "Among the princes, the only person respected by the prime minister is the general, and now I am the special envoy to marry the general." ”

"Marriage?" Sun Jian was stunned, he never thought that Dong Zhuo sent Li Dao to see him for this kind of thing, but when he came back to his senses, Sun Jian snorted coldly.

Li Wei chuckled in his heart, and immediately said: "The prime minister has a daughter, and he wants to be married to the general's son......"

"Shut up!" Sun Jian didn't wait for Li Dao to finish speaking, then interrupted sharply, how could he not know Dong Zhuo's abacus, but how could he be fooled, you must know that Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army has been defeated again and again, and the morale of the princes' coalition army is like a rainbow, isn't marrying Dong Zhuo at this time the same as looking for death.

"Dong Zhuo rebelled against the sky and bullied the royal family, I hate to destroy his nine clans, to thank the world, and to marry the traitor." Sun Jian rebuked angrily.

"General, this ......" Li Dao still wanted to persuade, but Sun Jian didn't give him a chance.

Sun Jian scolded loudly: "Get out, if you don't roll, let your head fall to the ground." Go back and tell the old thief, let him quickly surrender the pass, give the pass early, spare his life, if he is delayed, he will be crushed! ”

"Get out!" Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and other generals under Sun Jian also held the hilt of the knife and shouted angrily at Li Dao, as if they were going to add a sword to the next moment and cut Li Dao into pieces.

Li Dao was so frightened that he ran away with his head and fled back to the Tiger Prison.

Li Dao informed Dong Zhuo of this and portrayed Sun Jian's rudeness.

Dong Zhuo scolded angrily: "Hmph, damn Sun Jian, you don't know the current affairs!" ”

After scolding angrily, Dong Zhuo became worried again, and asked Li Ru: "If you can't marry Sun Jian, what can I do?" ”

In fact, if you want to marry Sun Jian, the purpose is to win over Sun Jian, fight the alliance of princes, and enhance your own strength. As for why it was Sun Jian who was wooed, not the other princes, especially the three Liu Yu brothers, who beheaded Huaxiong and defeated Lu Bu.

Because, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru knew that Sun Jian was killed by Yuan Shu's calculations, and thought that Sun Jian would have a grudge against Yuan Shu's brothers, and it was easiest to win over Sun Jian, plus Sun Jian was known as the Jiangdong Tiger, which was a fierce general, which could increase the strength of his Western Liang army.

Li Ru sighed, but he couldn't make a plan, so he had another plan.

Li Ru walked up to Dong Zhuo and said to Dong Zhuo: "Lord, the newly defeated Marquis of Wen has no fighting spirit, and it may be difficult to repel the coalition of princes, so it is better to lead the troops back to Luoyang and move the capital to Chang'an." ”

"Move the capital?" Dong Zhuo was immediately stunned.

Li Ru nodded and said, "Yes, move the capital." Chang'an is a vast land and rich people, it is the place where the emperors of the past dynasties built the capital, and the lord has been operating there for many years, the foundation is strong, and there is a natural danger in Tongguan, you can avoid the front of the heroes, and you can defend it with danger. Hasn't the lord heard such a nursery rhyme? ”

Speaking of which, Li Ru also sold a pass first.

"Nursery rhymes?" Dong Zhuo was immediately aroused by curiosity.

Li Ru said: "There is a Han in the west and a Han in the east." When the deer enters Chang'an, there is no difficulty. Chen Si said that 'the first Han in the west' should be Gaozu Wang in the western capital of Chang'an, and passed on the 12 emperors; 'The first Han in the east' should be Guangwuwang in the eastern capital Luoyang, and now it is also passed on to the 12 emperors. Fortune is back. The prime minister moved back to Chang'an, so he could have no worries. ”

Dong Zhuo laughed and said, "It's not that you said, I really don't know the truth." ”

"Nursery rhyme, meaning providence, yes, yes, this is providence!" After laughing, Dong Zhuo's eyes flashed sharply, and he said decisively: "Order, return to Luoyang in the starry night to discuss the relocation of the capital." ”

Nearly 200,000 Xiliang troops and Dong Zhuo returned to Luoyang overnight, and Dong Zhuo summoned hundreds of civil and military officials to the court overnight, and announced the relocation of the capital.

All the civil and military courtiers were shocked, and some jumped out to oppose it.

Dong Zhuo angrily killed several people to establish power, and even belittled Yang Biao, Huang Wan, Xun Shuang and other important ministers as commoners, which frightened other civil and military courtiers.

Dong Zhuo was in a hurry to move the capital, and only gave the other civil and military courtiers time in the middle of the night, and he had to move the capital early the next morning.

At the same time as moving the capital to Chang'an, Dong Zhuo also sent troops to plunder the rich households in Luoyang, robbed them of their property, grain and grass, and drove hundreds of thousands of people in Luoyang to move to Chang'an together, and also burned palaces, official mansions, temples, private houses, etc., intending to leave only one ruin for the princes.

All of a sudden, Luoyang was on fire, crying everywhere, and it was unbearable.
