"Hmph, Wei Yan, a general under the account of the imperial lieutenant and the general of the Han Hussars, was ordered to garrison Luoyang today to welcome the return of the Son of Heaven! Why don't you surrender to the soldiers! ”

Wei Yan snorted coldly in his mouth, slammed the lance knife in his hand to the ground, and said with a bit of arrogance, of course, now he can use Zhu Wei's new official position to scare people.

Hearing Wei Yan's words, the commander of the army was stunned again, who was the hussar general and the captain of the dynasty, he didn't know.

In this day and age, what generals, what captains, it seems that they are also changing people every day, where can he figure out what kind of person this is, so he just glanced at Wei Yan suspiciously, "Since you are ordered to garrison Luoyang, why do you want to attack Dagu Pass, directly show the customs clearance order, and the customs clearance is, now it is like this, why!" ”

"Hmph, I'm just afraid of the order of the lord of a certain family, you don't recognize it, a certain family is from Jingzhou, you can know it now, don't hurry up and surrender!"

Wei Yan was also amused by this military marquis's words, he naturally knew that the other party might not have thought of where he came from, so he simply explained his origin again.

"Jingzhou? Ah, could it be that Jiangnan Qian Tanghou! But why did you come to Luoyang! This ......"

After listening to Wei Yan's words, the military marquis who commanded the old soldiers of Xiliang here was also unexpectedly stunned, he had also heard about Zhu Wei in the south, after all, Zhu Jun was also very famous in the Xiliang army, so Zhu Wei, as the son of Zhu Jun, became a big warlord in the south of the Yangtze River as a white son, which is really a bit legendary.

Although these Xiliang soldiers in the chaotic land of Guanzhong have never been to the south, they often use the rumors of Zhu Wei in the south as a usual talking point, but they would never have thought that Zhu Wei, who was far away in the south of the Yangtze River, would actually send troops to the northwest of Guanzhong.

The commander's eyes rolled wildly for a while, and then he looked at Wei Yan and the sword and shield men and crossbow archers who followed in behind Wei Yan, especially those crossbow archers, his eyes flashed slightly, and he seemed to have made a decision in his heart.

"Well, we're down! Brothers, don't die in vain, Tang Hou won't lose money if you drop it! ”

Immediately, this commander of the army took the lead in dropping the ring head knife in his hand, indicating that he had surrendered, in fact, these old soldiers of Xiliang had also changed masters many times, for them, as long as they could live, they could surrender to anyone, anyway, the warlords were very welcome to these veterans.

With him taking the lead, the other old Xiliang pawns also threw down their weapons, "We have surrendered, surrendered!" ”

Wei Yan couldn't help but be happy when he saw it, "Okay, count the people who know the current affairs, come and escort them out, don't kill those who descend, and take over Dagu Pass!" ”

In this way, the entire Dagu Pass can be regarded as easy for Wei Yan to take, that is, less than half an hour, and the follow-up Jingnan Battalion army also arrived, as more than 10,000 troops entered the Dagu Pass, the soldiers here had no other ideas.

Wei Yan did not delay time, leaving only Deng Yi to lead 3,000 soldiers to guard Dagu Pass, and he took 7,000 main forces and 2,000 Dagu Pass soldiers, and then went straight to Luoyang.

Now, although some of the escapees from Dagu Pass have escaped, they may report what happened in Dagu Pass to Wu Xi of the Luoyang garrison, but when Wu Xi gets the news, it is too late to react.

Therefore, Wei Yan will kill Luoyang now, and naturally he can beat Wu Xi by mistake.

There weren't many troops under this Wu Xi's tent, but with Wei Yan's current strength, it was enough.

And Dagu Pass is more than 50 miles away from Luoyang City, in fact, at the height of Dagu Pass, you can already see the buildings built on high platforms and high hills in Luoyang City.

Although most of these buildings have been burned down, until now Zhong Xuan, who is stationed in Luoyang, does not have much money that can really be used to repair the city walls and palaces of Luoyang.

Perhaps shortly thereafter, as the fleeing Luoyang refugees returned to Luoyang, Zhong Xuan could use the form of work relief to appease the displaced people to restore Luoyang, so that Luoyang could finally restore the status of the imperial capital.

But at least the current Luoyang, just like when Dong Zhuo left, is mostly a dilapidated situation.

Wei Yan didn't need to hide it, he directly led the army to show the banner of the Jingnan camp and the banner of the main general with the word "Wei", put the army in formation, and went to the south gate of Luoyang City.

Not long after, Luoyang City also discovered the arrival of the army led by Wei Yansuo, but the soldiers who had escaped from Dagu Pass did not seem to return to Luoyang to report the news, but went home directly as deserters.

Therefore, the defenders on the side of Luoyang also did not understand what was going on, and some of the soldiers defending the city reported to the main general Wu Xi, and Wu Xi also went to inform the captain of Sili, Zhong Xuan, so a large number of people also went to the city gate tower in Luoyang to watch from afar.

Seeing the size of Wei Yan's army, Zhong Xuan and Wu Xi both looked solemn, although they didn't know the origin of Wei Yan's army, but they believed that this was definitely not the soldiers and horses sent by Cao Cao, the capital of Xu.

This is not only the difference on the military flag, but also the different colors of the Han scarves worn by those soldiers, this is not Cao Cao's army, so no matter what force the soldiers and horses are, it is not a good thing to come to Luoyang at this time.

"General Wu, is it possible to resist?"

Although Zhong Miao also felt that this question was nonsense, he still wanted to get some comfort from Wu Xi's side, otherwise he could only think about whether he should run away or what.

"Zhong Overseer, if the last general is ashamed of himself, now Luoyang soldiers and horses are only more than 2,500, and most of them are useless new soldiers, Luoyang City is so dilapidated, how can it be resisted, the overseer, it is better for the last general to escort the overseer to withdraw to Hongnong, at least to meet the soldiers of Hongnong Duanxuan, in order to have the possibility of resisting! If it really doesn't work, I will transfer Ma Teng and Han Sui to the enemy! ”

Wu Xi naturally didn't dare to stay in Luoyang to resist, although he also regretted that his family business in Luoyang didn't seem to be able to be saved, but after all, his life came first, so he still wanted to preserve his strength and prepared to withdraw to Hongnong to resist with Duan Xuan, of course, it would be better if Zhong Xuan could transfer Ma Teng and Han Sui's Liangzhou army.

"Well, at least know which side this is!"

Zhong Xuan knew the situation when he heard this, but he still wanted to know the origin of the attacking army, otherwise he wouldn't even know who called, then he would be too irresponsible.

"No! Then arrange this! ”

Wu Xi knew what Zhong Xuan meant, so he immediately ordered someone to prepare for the retreat first, and then took the initiative to take the initiative to meet Wei Yan in the direction from which Wei Yan came, anyway, Luoyang City is difficult to hold, it is better to take the initiative to attack, and there is a chance to escape.

Immediately, Wu Xi got off the city wall, personally took a thousand Xiliang old soldiers and cronies to ride out of the south gate of Luoyang, and when there were still a thousand steps away from Wei Yan's army, he let the Xiliang cavalry brigade behind him stop first.

Wu Xi brought more than a hundred escort cavalry before slowly meeting him, and finally stopped in front of Wei Yan's army.

Wei Yan naturally saw the army coming out of Luoyang City, so Wei Yan was also holding a lance knife at this time, and with four or five hundred pro-army troops, he stepped forward to meet him.

Wu Xi and Wei Yan are both generals in their twenties, but Wu Xi is no more than a second-rate general, but he can't be compared with Wei Yan in terms of strength, and there is a significant gap between the two......
