Yuan Shao was defeated in successive battles, and was killed by Lu Bu who lost his armor and abandoned his armor, and was unable to form an army, and even folded the princes of the four roads.

Although the soldiers and horses that were damaged were not his own troops, this successive defeat was a catastrophic blow to Yuan Shao's prestige.

Yuan Shao, who lost the red eye, no longer expected Ye Zhao and Yuan Shu to gather the princes' soldiers and horses outside the Tiger Prison Pass, and launched a crazy attack on the Tiger Prison Pass.

An army of more than 100,000 Chen soldiers outside the Tiger Prison Pass, according to Cao Cao's suggestion, divided the hundreds of thousands of horses into 30,000 people, and launched an attack, attack, and attack again on the Tiger Prison Pass day and night......

Under such a frenzied attack by the coalition forces, the Tiger Prison was transformed into a Shura battlefield, and the walls, the land, and even the water of the moat were stained red with blood.

Compared with the tragic battle in front of the Tiger Pass, Yuan Shu and Ye Zhao, who were stationed in Yique Pass and Xuanyuan Pass, were much more relaxed, Yuan Shu organized several attacks after arriving at Yique Pass, but all of them were blocked, as for Xuanyuan Pass, Ye Zhao set up trebuchets outside Xuanyuan Pass, dug up ravines, and made a posture that if you dare to come out, I will kill you, Niu Fusheng is cautious, seeing Ye Zhao put on such a battle, not to mention that he was not ready to fight, even if he had this mind, looking at Ye Zhao's posture, he would be scared back.

In addition to patrolling the barracks every day, most of the time, Ye Zhao was preaching with Kong Rong.

The predecessor has an amazing memory, not only is he familiar with the hundreds of schools of thought, but also has a lot of research on Confucianism, even if he is a great Confucian like Kong Rong, he can sit and talk about the Tao, so that Kong Rong feels like he has met a confidant, and he pulls Ye Zhao to talk about the past and the present all day long, and almost forgets that he is now on the battlefield.

"Lord, this Hua Xiong has been arrested for almost a month, and you won't interrogate him?" On this day, Ye Zhao said goodbye to Kong Rong and took Dian Wei back to the camp, and on the way, Dian Wei finally couldn't help asking.

"What is he doing when he is arraigned? I know the affairs of Luoyang better than him. Ye Zhao asked rhetorically.

"But this guy has an astonishing amount of food, one person can top three, and he spends all day foul language, so that he is not noisy, and he is not interrogated, what is he doing and arresting him? Why don't you cut it down? Dian Wei said with a dark face.

"One person tops the other?" Ye Zhao glanced at Dian Wei strangely, this thing is embarrassed to say that others, he eats the size of five people in one meal, but now he thinks that others eat too much.

"yes." Dian Wei nodded as a matter of course.

"Okay, it's been almost a month, and the sharpness is almost gone, you bring him." Ye Zhao shook his head helplessly, this is a typical double standard.

"Whoa!" Dian Wei nodded, and after a while, he took Hua Xiong to the tent.

"General Hua, I don't want you and me to see each other again, but this is the situation!" Ye Zhao sat on the Hu bed, looked at Hua Xiong and said with a smile: "These days, are you still comfortable?" If the soldiers under the tent have any rudeness to the general, I know everything. ”

"Dare to ask Ye Hou!" Hua Xiong looked at Ye Zhao and said, "Ye Hou secretly formed an alliance with my lord, why did he capture me?" ”

"If I don't capture you, I save you!" Ye Zhao looked at Hua Xiong and said: "Do you know that among the coalition forces of the Kwantung princes, at least three people are not under Dian Wei, if I hadn't asked Dian Wei to capture you as a guest, but one of these three people would have made a move, General Hua is afraid that he has no head to talk and laugh with Ben Hou like this at this moment." ”

"Ye Hou's hospitality, it's really ......" Hua Xiong looked at the rope on his body, and sneered, but he didn't believe half a word about Ye Zhao's words, when did Dian Wei and other fierce generals rot the street?

"Believe it or not." Ye Zhao smiled: "As for hospitality...... I have a word that General Hua will not believe. ”

"Ye Hou said it." Hua Xiong looked at Ye Zhao and said with a smile.

"I said that Dong Zhuo will be defeated!" Ye Zhao looked at Hua Xiong and smiled.

"Ye Hou's words make people laugh, just rely on those Kanto rats?" Hua Xiong sneered: "Non-Hua Xiong looks down on Ye Hou, Ye Hou is a hero at that time, Hua admires, but the Kwantung princes, but the local chicken Wagouer, under my lord's account, not to mention the courage of Wen Hou, the brave crown is in the world, among Luoyang, there are many stronger than Hua, if Ye Hou is the leader of the alliance, maybe there is still a few chances of winning, but Ye Hou looks at the Kwantung princes, just rely on them, how can they compete with my lord?" ”

"This is true, but Ben Hou did not say that Dong Zhuo was defeated at the hands of the Kwantung princes." Ye Zhao looked at Hua Xiong and smiled.

"What do you mean by that?" Hua Xiong frowned and looked at Ye Zhaodao.

"Under Dong Zhuo's command, there are many factions, the Xiliang Army is Dong Zhuo's lineage, and now Lu Bu is in the Tiger Prison Pass, overpowering the heroes, the Kwantung princes who fought can't raise their heads, and their prestige is flourishing, this time they will return to the dynasty after the war, they will be reused, but they are generals, but they are in high positions, and they will be rejected by the Xiliang soldiers, in addition, the Luoyang scholars, and Dong Zhuo are also on the same page, the general does not know that during the period when the general was captured, Dong Zhuo sacrificed a butcher's knife in Luoyang, killing countless celebrities, although those scholars were shocked, but they were also more hated by the scholars."

"How can a group of people who only know how to talk nonsense, without soldiers and without power?" Hua Xiong said disdainfully when he heard this.

"Then General Hua dares to gamble with me?" Ye Zhao looked at Hua Xiong and smiled.

"How to bet?" Hua Xiong looked at Ye Zhao and frowned.

"Just bet on whether Dong Zhuo will lose, if he loses, then General Hua needs to be loyal to me." Ye Zhao looked at Hua Xiong and smiled.

"What if Ye Hou loses?" Hua Xiong looked at Ye Zhaodao.

"If Dong Zhuo is undefeated, Ben Hou will join Dong Zhuo with General Hua and serve him!" Ye Zhao said with a smile.

Hua Xiong looked at Ye Zhao vigilantly, although he didn't know much about it, but thinking about Ye Zhao's comments in the past, he always felt that he would be deceived by Ye Zhao, after thinking about it carefully, the light in his eyes moved, and he looked at Ye Zhao with a sneer: "If my lord has been undefeated, has Ye Hou always not let me return?" ”

Ye Zhao looked at Hua Xiong in surprise, he didn't want this reckless man to have such scheming, he shook his head and said with a smile: "General Hua has impressed me, then it will be a year, within a year, Dong Zhuo is undefeated, even if I lose, vice versa......."

One year, it is also a period of transformation for Dong Zhuo, if Dong Zhuo can carry this year, then he holds the Son of Heaven, in the name of the Son of Heaven, he can also collect a large number of talents for his own use, those scholars have brains, I am afraid that Dong Zhuo will not let Dong Zhuo survive this year, otherwise a year later, after Dong Zhuo is successful, what they want to do, it will be even more difficult, if Dong Zhuo can really survive this year, then the general trend of the world is Dong Zhuo's tiger in Guanzhong, the land of Kanto, the two Yuan Zhengfeng, Ye Zhao is in the cracks, and he has to take refuge in one of the forces, otherwise it is easy to be targeted by the three parties at the same time, even if there is no gambling contract, Ye Zhao will consider temporarily taking refuge in Dong Zhuo.

"If that's the case, Hua will be loyal to Ye Hou!" Hua Xiong said loudly.

"Refreshing!" Ye Zhao nodded and smiled: "Dian Wei, untie him." ”

"Whoa!" Dian Wei didn't talk nonsense, and directly stepped forward to untie the rope on Hua Xiong's body.

"Ye Hou is not afraid that Hua will regret it?" Hua Xiong looked at Ye Zhao unexpectedly.

"I believe that General Hua is a believer." Ye Zhao smiled.

"You and I are so close, if you make trouble at this moment, even if Dian Wei beats me, he may not be able to stop me here." Hua Xiong looked at Dian Wei, and then at Ye Zhao and said: "If you can capture Ye Hou, even if you don't fulfill the gambling contract, Ye Hou will return to the court with me, and you will also have to serve my lord." ”

Ye Zhao suddenly laughed when he heard this, and he smiled very happily.

"What are you laughing at?" Hua Xiong said angrily.

Dian Wei grinned and said: "It's Lu Bu, he doesn't have a weapon in his hand, and at such a close distance, he doesn't dare to say such crazy things, just rely on you?" ”

After speaking, he also threw Hua Xiong a contemptuous look.

Hua Xiong suddenly remembered that when Ye Zhao was still in Luoyang before, he seemed to have fought with Lu Bu head-on, and no one said anything about the process, but with Lu Bu's temperament, Ye Zhao was sitting here dignified at the moment, and he had already explained a lot of problems, and sighed helplessly: "Thank you Ye Hou for your trust, Ye Hou please rest assured, within a year, Hua will never escape." ”

"Let's arrange for him to stay first, treat him with the courtesy of a general, and in the barracks, General Hua should not be stopped wherever he wants to go." Ye Zhao smiled and nodded.

"Whoa!" Dian Wei bowed and took Hua Xiong out of Ye Zhaoshuai's tent.

Looking at the back of the two leaving, Ye Zhao stood up, Huaxiong's matter is done, next, it's up to Dong Zhuo, the day before yesterday he had received news from Xi Zhicai's side, Dong Zhuo was secretly migrating the people around Mianchi and Gucheng to Guanzhong, Dong Zhuo had already begun to prepare to shrink his forces and abandon Luoyang.

It's just that now all the checkpoints are blocked, and the news has not yet come out, Xi Zhicai has also been deduced through the intelligence of Sanfu, and a large number of people in Hongnong have been driven across the border recently, this kind of news is too far for Kanto, but for Hanzhong, it is easy to get, and you can't hide it if you want to.

Now that Lu Bu is suppressing the princes, the Tiger Prison Pass has been attacking frantically for several days, but it has failed to break through the Tiger Prison Pass, and it has also given Dong Zhuo time to deploy calmly, plus Yuan Kui and other scholars have been killed, even if the remaining scholars are on the side of the Kwantung princes, I am afraid it will be difficult to spread the news in a short time.

After Ye Zhao thought about it, he still gave up passing the news to Yuan Shao, Dong Zhuo moved these people into Guanzhong, once Dong Zhuo was defeated in the future, when Guanzhong was in chaos, as long as he was well guided, he would benefit the most from himself, why should he help the princes of Guandong?

The next few days were fine, but a few days later, early in the morning, Ye Zhao was still exercising, but he saw Kong Rong hurriedly come to Ye Zhao's camp with a few personal guards.

"Why is Wen Jugong in such a hurry?" Ye Zhao looked at the joy on Kong Rong's face and smiled: "But what's the good thing?" ”

"This morning, the alliance leader sent a letter, saying that the Tiger Prison will not be broken soon, and I will be summoned to wait for the Alliance Tiger Prison to prepare to gather soldiers and horses and enter from the Tiger Prison!" Kong Rong looked at Ye Zhao and smiled.

"It's a great joy." Ye Zhao nodded when he heard this, no matter how strong the Tiger Prison Pass is, under Yuan Shao's crazy attack regardless of the cost, in such a short period of almost a month, even if it is demolished, the Tiger Prison Pass can be demolished.

"When are we leaving?"

"Immediately!"
