"Lord......" Gao Shun came quickly and bowed.

"It's hard work!" Liu Zhang smiled and helped Gao Shun up.

"Where the duty lies, don't dare to say bitterness!"

"Okay, will the enemy attack for a while and a half, be cautious and rest, just leave the cleaning of the battlefield to others!"

"My lord, there will be something to report in the end!"

"Oh, what's the matter?" Liu Zhang said with some surprise.

Gao Shun pointed to the trench outside the camp and said, "Lord, according to the observation of the last general, there is still an enemy army in the trench at this moment......

Liu Zhang said in surprise: "There is such a thing? Could it be that Li Dao hid them on his horse and prepared to be a surprise army, waiting for our army to be careless and sneak attack our army's camp? Don't they know that we will clean up the battlefield? Or did he want to break into the camp in one fell swoop when our army was cleaning up the battlefield and the gate was wide open? ”

Gao Shun said: "It shouldn't be, just now our army's crossbow bow is sharp, the enemy can't resist, some of the enemy troops jumped into the trench in desperation to avoid our army's arrow attack, our army's trench is as deep as a zhang, although it can't be killed if it falls, but it is difficult to climb up, the enemy retreats too fast, and some of the enemy troops don't have time to climb out, so they are left behind!" ”

"Oh, there is such a good thing, pass the order down, persuade them to surrender, if they don't surrender, they will all be killed!"

"Yes, the last will be ordered!"

Not long after, nearly 1,000 desperate Xiliang soldiers threw down their weapons and helped each other climb out of the trench and surrender to the Yizhou army.

In this battle, the Yizhou army killed more than 5,000 enemy soldiers, captured 964 people, and wounded thousands of enemies. More than 1,000 were killed in battle, and 1,600 were seriously and lightly wounded.

After piling up the corpses of the enemy soldiers and burning the timber, the Yizhou army withdrew to the main camp.

In Liu Zhang's tent, the generals of Wenchen gathered together to discuss how to fight next.

Xi Zhicai said: "My lord, Li Dao is frustrated here, and his subordinates think that he will turn to Weishui, in a vain attempt to break through our army's Weishui camp and cut off the connection between our army and the rear!" ”

Xun You immediately said: "Yes, my subordinates and Zhicai have the same opinion, once the Weishui camp is taken, our army will be surrounded by the Xiliang army in Guanzhong, and sooner or later it will fall into the danger of starvation." Li Wei made a good calculation, but he never expected that the lord had already divided his troops, and right now, he was afraid that Sanguan and Chen Cang had fallen into the hands of Wen Chang! ”

Guo Jiadao: "Even if the Weishui camp is lost, relying on our army's cantonment to collect military rations, it will be enough for a month, and within a month, General Wenchang will already turn the hinterland of Guanzhong upside down!" ”

Liu Zhang nodded, indeed as the three of them said, he didn't care too much about the gains and losses of the Weishui camp, if it wasn't for the sake of confusing Dong Zhuo, he wouldn't even want to stay in the Weishui camp, but in this way, Dong Zhuo had to be suspicious, why was he so bold, could he have any conspiracy? Because in this way, his return path will be easily cut off, and the martial arts army will be like a rootless ping, which may perish at any time. When leaving the Weishui camp, he specially told Li Yan that if the enemy attacked, he could keep the rules, and if he could not violate the situation, he could choose the opportunity to withdraw to the south bank, or withdraw to the martial arts camp, and he would send troops to respond.

"What is Wenhe's opinion?" Looking at the silent Jia Xu, Liu Zhang asked.

Jia Xu said: "Hui Lord, my subordinates agree with the opinions of the three gentlemen, although the Xiliang Army is in an advantage in terms of strength, but its main force is cavalry, and the cavalry is not good at attacking fortifications, Li Wei's only chance of winning is that our army opens a large camp and sets up a position and fights in the field, but it is obvious that the lord will not make such a decision." As long as our army can't hold out, Li Dao is helpless, once the news of General Wei's troops entering the pass comes, the Xiliang army will inevitably be in turmoil, and our army will have an opportunity to take advantage of it! His subordinates thought that once Dong Zhuo learned the news that General Wei led the army into Guanzhong, in order to stabilize the morale of the army and clean up the situation, he would inevitably come to supervise the battle in person, Dong Zhuo's prestige in the Xiliang army was unparalleled, once Dong Zhuo came in person, the morale of the Xiliang army would be greatly boosted, if he fought with all his might, only with the 60,000 troops of our army here, the victory or defeat may be unpredictable! ”

Liu Zhang asked: "What Wen He means is that Dong Zhuo will come desperately to attack our army's camp, once he breaks through our army's camp, Lone will either be killed or captured, and Wen's army will collapse without a fight, and Dong Zhuo can also turn the corner!" Even if Lone escapes, it will inevitably greatly affect the morale of our army, and Dong Zhuo can take advantage of the situation to advance westward and use his huge cavalry to encircle and suppress Wen Chang? ”

"My subordinates are worried!"

"Wen He knows that if Dong Zhuo is determined to fight, how many soldiers and horses can he mobilize from Wugong?"

"Back to the lord, Chang'an is the core of Guanzhong, with a huge population, Dong Zhuo can easily expand the army by tens of thousands, even 100,000, or even more, of course, these recruits have limited combat strength and are not enough to cause trouble, but if Dong Zhuo uses some of the recruits to guard against the safety of Chang'an and other places, and sends garrisons to fight a decisive battle, at least he can get 30,000 to 50,000 old soldiers and 50,000 recruits!"

Liu Zhang smiled helplessly and said, "This is really a troublesome matter!" ”

"Actually, there is a way to divide Dong Zhuo's troops!" Jia Xu said.

"Oh, what a way, Wen He said quickly!"

"Order General Wei to capture this ......" Jia Xu came to the map, pointed to a place, and said.

"Yixian?"

Jia Xu said: "Definitely, Yiwu! ”

"Hewu?"

"Back to the lord, it is Yiwu, Dong Zhuo has taken the treasures snatched from the royal family and the gentry and the common people since he moved west, and there are even countless emperors and funeral goods that have been secretly excavated from the mausoleum by him and placed in the Wuwu, Dong Zhuo is greedy for property, and he will definitely not sit back and watch the things he looted fall into the hands of others, if our army attacks here, he will divide his troops to rescue!"

"This plan is even wonderful, be cautious, after dark, you arrange for someone to secretly go out of the camp, go west to contact the chief of the text, and order him to set up a posture and storm Yiwu!"

"The last will be ordered!"

Chang'an, Prime Minister's Mansion!

Since Liu Zhang's Northern Expedition, the Prime Minister's Mansion has not received a single piece of good news, and one bad news after another has made Dong Zhuo have the urge to cut down all the heralds, but if he cuts them, there is no bad news? Obviously, that's just a cover-up!

No, it was not easy to expect that Li Dao's army had all arrived at the front line of martial arts and stabilized the situation, Dong Zhuo could finally put his mind at ease and comfortably spoil the beauties of the harem who fell in Chang'an when the Han Emperor fled eastward, who expected bad news to follow. First, Hu Cai was beheaded in front of the battle, and he lost countless soldiers (Li Dao made the results of the battle very gorgeous in order to get rid of his crimes, but who is Dong Zhuo?). How can you not know his mind? ）； Then Li Daoqin led the main force to attack Liu Zhang's camp, but without saying an inch, he lost countless soldiers and horses; Dong Zhuo's official document of reprimanding and questioning Shangwen was issued, and a bigger bad news made him vomit blood on the spot - Liu Zhang took advantage of the opportunity that the main force of the Xiliang Army was attracted to the front line of martial arts and guarded the emptiness in the hinterland of Guanzhong, and went out of Chencang Road with an army of 100,000 troops, and then conquered Yulu and Wangxian on three days, and then successively captured Yulu, Wangxian and other places. Liu Zhangjun went back and forth wantonly, and there was no city or place to stifle his edge! Dong Zhuo has always regarded the hinterland of Guanzhong as his own back garden, but now there is one in his back garden, no, it is a group, a large group of vicious wolves, these vicious wolves look at the treasures he has spent countless hours to accumulate and show greedy eyes, and take action, but he, the master and a cadre of nursing homes, are not at home, leaving only the old and weak to let them *......

After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Dong Zhuo drew his sword and did something he had wanted to do for a long time - end the life of this messenger!

The blood-dripping sword was discarded to the ground by Dong Zhuo, making a crisp sound.

"Liu Zhang'er, you deceived me too much...... Ah......" spit out another mouthful of blood, Dong Zhuo's face couldn't help but turn a little pale, and he took the Jinpa from the maid's hand to wipe off the blood stains on his mouth, and his hatred for Liu Zhang increased a few points: "Shaft, the appearance is inseparable from you...... Someone, call Li Ru to see me! ”

"Yes......" A personal guard hurriedly ran out, at this moment, Dong Zhuo is very murderous, he must deal with it carefully, otherwise the blood-dripping sword may taste his blood!
