Chapter 425: Mou Dong
Zhou Fan galloped all the way with the army, and it didn't take long to return to Hangu Pass.
When he went to Tiger Prison Pass before, Zhou Fan didn't bring all his troops with him in order to keep a low profile, and only brought 20,000 soldiers and horses.
And now, in addition to Chang'an Cheng Yu, there are still 30,000 soldiers and horses to guard, here in Hangu Pass, Zhou Fan has 50,000 Yizhou soldiers and horses, plus the 50,000 Luoyang troops under Xu Rong who have just surrendered, a full 100,000 army, and the strength can not be said to be not strong.
Hangu Pass.
"This is Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, and they are also Zhang Ren's junior disciples. This is Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan, who was originally under Lu Bu, but now he has abandoned the darkness and joined us. As soon as he returned to Hangu Pass, the next day, Zhou Fan gathered everyone and held a meeting. At the same time, he also introduced Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao to everyone.
If you want to say that this Zhang Liao, he was persuaded by Zhou Fan before, and he also moved his mind to join Zhou Fan early.
Ants are still greedy, let alone human, and Zhou Fan is very moved by a corporal like him like him.
In addition, he was also a little disappointed with Na Lu Bu. Although Ding Yuan's death really has nothing to do with that Lu Bu, but what he did afterwards really made him a little overwhelmed, if it weren't for the two of them being born and dying for a long time, I'm afraid he would have carried him Lu Bu behind him, and now that he was captured by Zhou Fan, it can be regarded as helping him make a decision.
"Zhao Yun has seen you!"
"Zhang Liao has seen you!"
Zhang Yun and Zhang Liao saluted everyone present at the same time.
The rest of the people also returned the salute to the two of them, but for Zhao Yun, everyone was still more enthusiastic, but for this Zhang Liao, there were more or less pimples in everyone's hearts, which was obviously a little remote.
This Zhao Yun is okay to say, he has an innocent background, and he is the junior brother of Zhang Ren, so he is naturally trustworthy.
As for this Zhang Liao, he can be valued so much by Zhou Fan. Naturally, he also has some skills, and since Zhou Fan dares to use him, his character is naturally passable, but everyone has some concerns in their hearts.
This is not because Zhang Liao is a general. That Xu Rong is also a general, and they are not prejudiced.
For this Zhang Liao, it was mainly because he was Lu Bu's subordinate. For Na Lu Bu, I'm afraid that no one present will have a good impression, killing his father and betraying the master. Aiding and abetting abuse, all of which are despised. This Zhang Liao is his subordinate Lu Bu, and they don't want to see this Zhang Liao anymore.
Zhou Fan naturally saw this clearly, but he didn't say much. It's better to be blocked, I believe that after they get along with themselves for a while, they will naturally not be like this.
"Lord, now that the allied forces are scattered, what are we still doing in this Hangu Pass?" Koji asked.
"Dong Zhuo used this king's strategy, I believe it won't be long before the whole Han will be in chaos, but this is not the situation I want to see. It's okay to mess with the big guys, but it can't be so messy, and it can't be so fast! Zhou Fan snorted coldly and said.
Zhou Fan finally took advantage of this opportunity to take the Kanto, and was planning to fight the snake and roll up, take down Liangzhou, restore the land of the former pre-Qin, and then slowly move towards the Central Plains.
And now that Dong Zhuo is such a king, it really disrupted Zhou Fan's position a little and caught him off guard.
I believe it won't be long. Those princes and kings will fight first by themselves, if this is a small fight, forget it, if there is some big movement, so that the Central Plains forces will accelerate the integration. When the time comes, it will be troublesome, and one big force is far less easy to take down than several small forces.
Moreover, there are so many princes and kings in the Han Dynasty, and for Zhou Fan, there are indeed too many unfavorable factors, and only by killing all the thrones of these princes can he return to the same starting line. When the time comes, it will be easier to conquer the world.
"What do you mean by ......?" asked Koji cautiously.
"I want to let Dong Thief's plan to be the king completely collapse! and pull the princes down from their thrones. Zhou Fan gritted his teeth and said.
Everyone was shocked in their hearts, and glanced at Zhou Fan in some surprise. This king has already been sealed, how can he be invalidated.
"Big brother, are you going to kill that Dong Zhuo?" didn't wait for everyone to ask, but Zhou Yu was the first to say the answer.
Everyone suddenly glanced at Zhou Yu appreciatively.
This Zhou Yu is worthy of being the younger brother of their lord, although he is still young, he is already an excellent strategist.
With the current situation, as long as Dong Zhuo is dead, then his Dong Zhuo group has no leader, and it will definitely be chaotic, and the biggest possibility at that time is that as in history, Li Dao and Guo Yan will replace Dong Zhuo and regain control of the Luoyang court, or the Luoyang court will regain control of Luoyang.
But no matter what the situation is, it doesn't matter, whether it is Li Dao Guo Yan or the Luoyang Imperial Court, they will not want to see the existence of so many princes and kings in the Han Dynasty. Then when the time comes, it will naturally be decreed that Dong Zhuo's previous holy decree is invalid, and this throne will naturally become a joke.
Although today's Luoyang Imperial Court, it is basically a puppet, but it doesn't matter, as long as the Han Xian Emperor is still alive, the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty still exists, once the holy decree is issued, even if those princes and kings are no longer willing to accept it, they can not obey the summons of the Luoyang Imperial Court, but for this order, they have to abide by it, unless they are willing to be a real thief and be the enemy of the whole world. This matter, even with Zhou Fan's current strength, he would never dare to try it easily, it was no different from looking for death.
"What the lord means is that we are going to attack Luoyang directly!" Koji exclaimed with some excitement.
This time he went to the Tiger Prison Pass, and Koji Yi was not brought with him, so he is also full of energy in his heart now, and he really wants to find a place to vent.
Hearing this, Zhou Fan smiled and asked, "Koi Yi, do you think you can take Luoyang with our current strength?" ”
Belch! Lu Yi was immediately speechless, to be honest, with the current 100,000 troops in Hangu Pass, it is not impossible to take Luoyang and kill Dong Zhuo, but this price must be a heavy loss of 100,000 troops, or even the annihilation of the entire army. With Kojiyi's understanding of his own lord, this is something he absolutely does not want to see.
"If the lord wants to attack Luoyang, Yi is willing to act as a vanguard!" In the end, Koji Yi still held back such a sentence. It will not weaken the morale of your own army, but you can also express your loyalty, so why not. (To be continued.) )
