Chapter 469: 400,000 troops arrive at the revolving door
Yuan Shao was suddenly furious.
Without waiting for Liu Fan to speak, he asked Gongsun Zhan: "Gongsun Taishou, who is behind you?"
"This is my brother since childhood, Pingyuan Ling, Liu Bei, Liu Xuande."
Gongsun Chan got up and arched his hand and said.
"Liu Bei, back then, I recommended you as the gall Tao Ling, but you fled! I didn't expect to be here! ”
Liu Fan looked at Liu Bei and asked him.
"Be disrespectful! At that time, I had no intention of entering the office, so I said goodbye. Now the family is in trouble, and after King Jing of Zhongshan, the great-grandson of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty is duty-bound to come to the country. ”
Liu Bei hurriedly came out of the queue and saluted Liu Fan. Looks extraordinarily humble.
Back then, Liu Fan wanted to break up him and Zhang Fei, how could it be easy to give up?
So he fled with Zhang Fei from the army. At that time, it was a decisive battle with Zhang Jiao in Jizhou, and he and Zhang Fei were deserters.
Although he made military exploits and cleared the name of a deserter halfway, he also had a grudge with Liu Fan because of this.
Liu Bei's words just now not only put himself on the moral high ground, but also revealed his identity as a clan member of the Han family.
After King Jing of Zhongshan, the great-great-grandson of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty.
With Liu Fan's identity, he can no longer blame him.
It's just that Liu Bei didn't expect that after many years, Liu Fan, who had been at the border for a long time, still knew him.
What he didn't know was that Liu Fan forgot whom, and he wouldn't forget him Liu Bei.
"Royalty!"
Yuan Shao muttered to himself.
There are many royal relatives, there are not millions in the world, but hundreds of thousands.
But from Liu Fan's words, it can be seen that he attaches great importance to Liu Bei, which attracted Yuan Shao's attention.
In terms of conversation, Liu Bei is also quite extraordinary.
"Liu Xuande, who is flat yellow scarf, has long admired his name. I have heard about your deeds in Qingzhou! ”
Cao Cao squinted his eyes and said to Liu Bei.
"Since they are both relatives of the Han family, give them a seat!"
Liu Fan ordered the colonel.
The little colonel took a stool, put it in the last seat, and asked Liu Bei to take a seat.
"Your reputation is insignificant, let you be the same two thousand stones, but you and I are the same emperor!"
Liu Fan said to Liu Bei.
Without Sanying, see how you Liu Bei fights Lu Bu?
"Thank you, Alliance Leader!"
Liu Bei's face was full of gratitude, bowed to Liu Fan, and sat down on the last seat.
Although it is the last position, it is the same seat as the princes of the Eighteen Roads.
All of you here, except for Cao Cao and Xun You, are all officials with a rank of 2,000 stones.
Cao Cao was able to sit, and he was seated in the front because he assassinated Dong Zhuo, a righteous act. He also brought 30,000 soldiers and horses.
And Cao Cao also served as a major official of 2,000 stones.
The Xiaocai lieutenant on Cao Cao's head is a forbidden army lieutenant with a rank of 2,000 stones, which cannot be underestimated. Even though he had been dismissed by Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo was called a traitor by the Kwantung princes, and they recognized Cao Cao's official position.
Xun You is Liu Fan's confidant and strategist, Liu Fan sits, and no one dares to have an opinion.
Guan Yu and Xu Huang sat down, it was not a special case, but their rank had already been increased to two thousand stones.
Dian Wei and Xu Chu stood on Liu Fan's left and right, acting as escort generals.
"Alas! Such a great achievement is given to you, but you cannot take it. In this case, my 400,000 troops will press the revolving door! Just like coercing Xingyang, if the defenders of the revolving gate and Huaxiong do not surrender, they will storm the revolving gate day and night! ”
Liu Fan looked at the princes from all walks of life, and in the end, he sighed and said.
Then, Liu Fan set the direction of the march for the princes of all walks of life, and the troops pressed the spiral gate.
To fight against Dong's army, the soldiers were divided into more than a dozen routes. Although the first battle was frustrated, he was still full of confidence.
Because the princes from all walks of life claimed that Dong Zhuo had only 200,000 soldiers and horses, and the army of Dong Zhuo was one million. If you work hard, you will definitely overcome it.
After several days of marching, nearly 400,000 soldiers and horses finally gathered 30 miles away from the revolving gate.
Liu Fan also has a plan, that is, to send troops to take Chenggao City, and Chenggao will be able to go directly to the front of the Tiger Prison Pass.
Although the Tiger Prison Pass is more difficult to attack than the Revolving Gate Pass. But Dong Zhuo will be able to go to the Tiger Prison in person.
It is necessary to let Dong Zhuo's army be frustrated and afraid in front of the Tiger Prison Pass, so as to force Dong Zhuo to move to Chang'an.
However, before taking Chenggao, it is also necessary to thwart the defenders of the revolving gate.
Because Liu Fan remembered that the premise of Dong Zhuo's arrival in the Tiger Prison was the defeat of Huaxiong.
"Your opportunity to make meritorious service has arrived, who is willing to lead troops to the revolving gate and capture the gate. The 400,000-strong army is a solid backing. I'm here to wash the dust for you. ”
This time, the princes of the Eighteen Roads gathered in one tent. Liu Bei also mixed up in the last seat, but others spoke lightly and were not taken seriously.
Liu Bei wanted to end this job, but considering that the soldiers and horses under his command were not enough to fill the ravine, he could only give up. His "good brother" Gongsun Zan brought all cavalry, and he couldn't help him.
However, in the past few days, Liu Bei has befriended a person, who is Tao Qian, the assassin of Xuzhou.
"I'm willing to take my troops there!"
Everyone looked at it and spoke for Bao Xin, the minister of Jibei.
"Good! Yuncheng is really loyal and good. ”
Liu Fan exclaimed.
"There is no need for the eldest brother to come out, and in less than half a day, I will bring the head of Huaxiong to meet the alliance leader and the generals."
Before Bao Xin could move, a young man in armor behind him stood up and said.
He is Bao Xin's younger brother, Bao Zhong. Quite martial.
At this time, Xun You came to Liu Fan's side and whispered a few words to Liu Fan.
Liu Fan's eyes flickered and nodded. said to Bao Zhong: "If you go well, you will take it, if you don't go well, you will retreat, Huaxiong is brave, you don't have to fight with your life."
"No!"
After Bao Zhong received the order, he led 10,000 soldiers straight to the revolving gate.
The revolving door closed, and Hua Xiong leaned on the female wall, looking at Bao Zhongjun, who was preparing siege equipment.
"Fetch my weapons! Dian Tie rode three thousand, and went out with me. ”
For Bao Zhong's 10,000 soldiers and horses, Hua Xiong scoffed.
"No!"
Your Command.
At this time, Huaxiong had been appointed by Dong Zhuo as the governor of the festival.
After the addition of officials to the knighthood, Hua Xiong swelled up and did not put Bao Zhong's 10,000 soldiers and horses in his eyes.
Two minutes later, just as Bao Zhong was about to attack the city, the revolving door was closed and the door was wide open.
Huaxiong Pegasus descended the pass and led three thousand iron horsemen to rush towards Bao Zhong.
Bao Zhong wanted to line up to counterattack, but it was too late, and the Liangzhou horse rushed to Bao Zhong's formation in a moment after rushing to the city gate.
Bao Zhong's army was routed by the fierce Liangzhou Iron Cavalry.
Bao Zhong knew that things were not good and wanted to escape, but he was caught up by Hua Xiong and slashed under his horse.
When the rest of the soldiers saw that the Lord was about to be killed, they all laid down their arms and surrendered.
"Haha...... the princes outside the gates, but that's it! Send this head to Luoyang to invite merit. The soldiers went with me to the camp of the princes outside the border to fight. ”
Hua Xiong laughed, and suddenly looked down on the princes outside the Guanwai who were "known as the army of millions".
……
"Report ...... Inform the alliance leader that General Bao Zhong was not in time to attack the city, Hua Xiong led the iron cavalry to rush out, and in just a moment, he killed General Bao Zhong. The rest of the soldiers all surrendered to Huaxiong! ”
In the camp, the princes from all walks of life waited anxiously, and a small school rushed into the village and told Liu Fan.
"Brother!"
When Bao Xin heard this, he cried bitterly, but he didn't expect that in just two hours, the brothers would be separated by heaven and earth.
"General Bao's Day condolences!"
The princes from all walks of life hurried over to comfort Bao Xin.
