Chapter 32 Take the Tiger Prison and Point at Luoyang
In the battalion, the military council.
"Alliance leader, what should we do on this fifth day?" The princes under the account asked Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao asked, "What are the casualties of the soldiers?" How's the morale? ”
"There are many casualties among the soldiers, and the strength of the battle is less than sixty percent. Most of the soldiers were tired, and their morale was slightly sluggish. ”
After Yuan Shao heard this, he fell into deep thought, five days have passed, and there has been no news publicized, has it really failed? After tackling key problems for four consecutive days, even if he was tired, not to mention the generals and sergeants under the account.
"Mengde, what do you think?"
"After four days of fighting, although our army suffered heavy casualties, the enemy also suffered casualties, in a word, if we fight again, we will win in a few days!"
"However, the soldiers have no will to fight, so how can they fight the enemy?"
"A certain thief army is also scattered, how can it be defeated?"
"This... What do the crowd think? ”
The princes looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.
Liu Bei thought for a while, and was about to go out to speak. One will be in front, it is Changsha Sun Jianye.
"Alliance leader, in yesterday's battle, a certain led his troops to meet the cavalry who rushed out of the city to kill, and we knew that the thief army was indeed as Meng De said, the morale was weak, and it could be easily defeated, not the enemy of our army. I want to be a striker and go to tackle key problems! ”
"Wentai is eager to defend the country, loyal and can be learned, and a certain wish to go together!" "A certain wish to go together!"
In unison, Liu Bei and Cao Cao asked for battle at the same time.
Yuan Shao knocked on the table, "Since the three of you all have the will to fight, why don't you be the vanguard today, attack the key battles, and consume the enemy's morale." The rest of the good life is cultivated, and tomorrow will go to war, so the wheels will be consumed, and the enemy will be defeated! How is it? ”
"Good!" The trio agreed.
Yuan Shao then issued a military order, Cao Liu and Sun received the military order, transferred troops and sent generals, Cao Sun each led the generals of the headquarters, Liu Bei borrowed the soldier Sun Zhan, took Guan Zhang, and set off immediately.
On the road, the three of them rode together, Liu Bei felt that his status was slightly lower, and he retreated half of his position, saying, "Both of them are princes, and a certain is just a general, and they are not in accordance with the rules." ”
Cao Cao laughed, "Brother Xuande, we are all Han courtiers, we are all protective of the king, we are all loyal to the liver and courage, so what about the same generation?" Wentai, does it make sense? ”
"Yes, the three Xuande brothers and brothers fought against Lu Bu that day, how majestic, the three brothers are all heroes in the world, what rules do you want."
After Liu Bei heard this, he was full of emotion, thanked the two, drove the horse forward, and went to the Tiger Prison Pass.
At this moment, after the light rain, the blood stains left in the past few days have been washed away, as always, tall and majestic, as if the war in the past half a month is just illusory. It's a pity that the remnants of the corpses have ruthlessly captured people back to reality, and the bloody battles of the past few days are not illusory.
Under the tiger prison, Zhang Feiyue was eager to try, "Brother, go to fight, and fight with Na Lu Bu for three lilies!" ”
Sun Jian and Cao Cao also knew Zhang Fei's bravery and acquiesced.
Zhang Fei nodded as a sign of gratitude, raised his spear and slapped the horse, and closed the insult.
scolded dozens of times, but there was no reaction, and I was in a puzzled mood.
Cao Liu and Sun were also puzzled, there would be at least a few soldiers on the shut-up, why there was no one today, it was really suspicious.
The three of them looked at each other and saw each other's thoughts.
Cao Cao was the first to speak,
"There seems to be no one in Guanzhong, isn't it the enemy retreating?"
"There is a way to retreat troops, and it is not reasonable to withdraw all at once. Isn't it a ruse? Liu Bei retorted.
Sun Jian asked rhetorically, "A certain thief army, although the general is brave, but he has no resourcefulness. Who's going to do it? ”
Cao Cao seemed to remember something, "When I was in Luoyang, I heard that there was a strategist under Dong Zhuo's account, named Li Ru, who was vicious and insidious with tricks, isn't it... ”
Suddenly the wind blows the grass, the wind blows the weeds, the leaves rustle,
Cao Cao was already suspicious, but now in such a scene, he thought that he had been ambushed by the enemy, and shouted, withdraw the army.
Sun Jian and Liu Bei were also suspicious, and they also withdrew their troops, but they couldn't do it.
Lu Bu didn't know that his careless withdrawal of the army actually made the other party suspicious, and Li Ru didn't know that he had scared off the coalition army before he reached the Tiger Prison Pass, which was very magical.
Until that night, Sun Jian couldn't bear it, led the army to tackle the key problems, and rushed into the checkpoint without hindering, the place was in a mess, the firewood was already soaked, and the food in the old iron pot was also a little rancid.
Only then did he realize that Lu Bu and the others had already withdrawn their troops, and it was too late to chase and kill them at this time, so he regretted it very much. Hurry up and send someone to report, the tiger prison pass, captured!
Climb the checkpoint, look into the distance, look at the battlefield under the gate, the place where you have been fighting for half a month, it is as calm as the lake, but I don't know how many people are buried here.
"Lu Bu, one day, I will defeat you!"
However, it was said that Yuan Shao and others heard that the enemy had withdrawn after the capture of the Tiger Pass, and they were stunned at first, and then the hall was full of applause. We are finally victorious, the tiger prison is broken, Luoyang is not worried, Dong Zhuo is not worried. Yuan Shao was also overjoyed, and with an order, the whole army approached the Tiger Pass!
Each array counted the soldiers, the original more than 100,000 people, and then Cao Cao reinforcements 20,000, although the division of troops to attack Luoyang, at this moment there are only more than 50,000 soldiers in the barracks, this battle, 40,000 heroic souls, forever stay here.
There were two people in the camp, laughing a little awkwardly, Cao Cao Liu Bei also, seeing that the other party was like this, Cao Cao laughed heartily, "Unexpectedly, the two of us are too suspicious, and our cleverness is mistaken by cleverness, and if it is passed out, it will be laughed at by the world." ”
Liu Bei was also angry, "Jokes are jokes, take the tiger prison, Luoyang will not be able to go down in a day, and the Dong thief will be eliminated in a few days, this is enough, isn't it?" ”
"It's the pole, it's the pole. Brother Xuande, please. ”
"Please."
On this night, the princes drank and talked happily, and on the wall of the tiger prison, the flags of the princes fluttered in the wind, and they looked very dazzling in the moonlight.
Yuan Shaozheng sat in the general seat and said, "Everyone, be quiet, listen to me." ”
Everyone was quiet, not knowing what Yuan Shao wanted to say.
"Ladies and gentlemen, do you know why the Tiger Prison Pass Thieves Army withdrew?"
When I heard the news of the withdrawal, I was so happy that I forgot why the enemy was withdrawing.
"Let's look at the paperwork."
took out a piece of paper, which was written by Li Ru to Lu Bu, the withdrawal document, and Lu Bu threw it in the pass like this.
Everyone looked, "The rations of the soldiers have been cut off, withdraw the troops immediately!" ”
I see.
"I don't know if you know why the rations are broken?"
They all shook their heads.
Yuan Shao drank a glass of wine, said all the plans of Zhang Yang, and sighed from time to time.
When everyone heard this, they were quite shocked, and they hadn't seen General Zhang Yang for a long time, and it turned out that this was the reason. Such a loyal minister, the Han is very lucky! Zhang Yang is alone, and he is worth ten thousand armies! I don't know if I survived.
"Regardless of whether General Zhang survives or not, we should fight with all our strength to kill Dong and save Emperor Han, which is also what General Zhang Yang wants! Guys, can you fight again?! ”
"Fight!"
The morale that soared to the sky was issued from the tiger prison, and the sword pointed at Dong Zhuo in Luoyang.
On the outskirts of Luoyang, the army marched slowly.
"General, there are ten miles to go, and we will go to the military camp outside Luoyang City, and there will be no enemy pursuit." Scout Pegasus came to report.
"Got it, give the order to go down, march quickly, and there must be no mistake." Lu Bu seemed to be in a hurry, eager to arrive in Luoyang immediately.
"No."
"Luoyang, I'm Lu Bu back, Dong Zhuo, I'm Lu Bu back!" Lu Bu's face was smiling, a little warm, I was afraid that he was thinking of his wife and daughter at home, and it was a little bloody, I don't know what he remembered.
More than 50,000 people guarded the tiger prison, and only 30,000 returned with wounds.
Hurrying in the starry night, he finally came to the barracks, and explained a few words to his subordinates, Lu Bu rode the red rabbit and left quickly, not knowing where to go.
