Chapter 319: Pan Feng vs. Lu Bu
Regardless of whether it was Cao Ju's beheading, Cao Ren's beheading, or Huangfu Jianshou's beheading, the more than 300 heads of the Yuan family finally landed, including Yuan Huai and Yuan's widowed father and son.
Fortunately, after Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu fled Luoyang, they were forgiven by Dong Zhuo and divided into Bohai Taishou and Nanyang Taishou respectively, so their wives and children were easily taken out, otherwise, the Yuan family estimated that only their brothers would be left.
After the Yuan family was beheaded, in exchange for Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's anger at the crown, the two of them one south and one north, led the army of princes, and began to attack, Kong Ling also got Yuan Shao's order, and the army was raised, and they also rushed to Luoyang.
The combined army of the three routes, no less than 500,000, is so powerful that it can only be compared with the Yellow Turban Uprising a few years ago.
Dong Zhuo, under Li Ru's planning, also almost exhausted the army, intercepting the alliance of princes in three ways.
The south road, basically immovable, is still Xu Rong's army of 50,000, defending Liang County, allowing Yuan Shu's army to attack in turn, Liang County is still towering, so that Yuan Shu has no way at all.
Even, Yuan Shu also sent his first general, Ji Ling, to personally lead his troops to attack the city, not only failed to capture Liang County, but almost took his life.
In this way, Yuan Shu's passion for attacking the city was lowered again, and he returned to the confrontation stage before the Yuan family was destroyed.
Kong Ling on the East Road is not handsome, but fortunately, there are Xin Bi and Xun Yu under his command, and Liu Guanzhang in Wu, and his strength should not be underestimated.
However, the commander sent by Dong Zhuo to block Kong Ling's army was Hu Zhen, and led Li Yu, Guo Yan, Fan Chou, and Zhang Ji to defend Yangcheng, which also made Kong Ling's army linger.
Zhang Fei was responsible for the siege of the city, but the Xiliang army led by Li Yu four generals to defend the city, Zhang Fei led the army to attack the city for several days, suffered heavy casualties, and attacked the city several times, but were counterattacked by the Xiliang army.
Later, Kong Ling couldn't stand the huge damage anymore, so he ordered no more sieges, and adopted Liu Bei's strategy to besiege Yangcheng and cut off its grain routes.
However, before Hu Zhen came, he had already taken precautions in this regard and brought enough grain and grass.
In addition, Yangcheng is basically an empty city, and the people have long run out, so the grain and grass brought by Hu Zhen only need to be provided to the army, and it is no problem to support it for half a year. Half a year is enough time for Dong Zhuo to finish Yuan Shao's army, and then as long as he returns to the division, Kong Ling will definitely be scared.
Therefore, the most critical and wonderful battlefield of this great war is Dong Zhuo's main force and the main force of the princes' coalition army.
Xu Rong took away 50,000 troops, Hu Zhen took away 50,000 troops, and Luoyang City still had 300,000 troops, but Dong Zhuo couldn't take them all, so he left 100,000, led by his younger brother Dong Min, to guard the Beijing division, so as not to cause civil strife, and he personally led an army of 200,000, with Lu Bu as the general, Li Ru and Jia Xu as the military division, and went north to resist Yuan Shao's main force.
Dong Zhuo's movements were a little slow, and Yuan Shao's army came with hatred, and conquered Bishui Pass in one battle, so Dong Zhuo's army could only garrison the Tiger Pass and confront Yuan Shao's army.
When this news came out, Yuan Shu and Kong Ling's fighting spirit immediately weakened a lot, because even if they could break through Liangxian and Yangcheng, if they wanted to capture Luoyang City, which was defended by 100,000 Xiliang troops, it would be impossible.
However, Yuan Shao saw hope, his side was the alliance of the Eight Route Princes, no less than 400,000 people, twice the army of Dong Zhuo, if he fought and went down to the Tiger Prison Pass, he went straight to Luoyang. At the same time, Yuan Shao sent two more troops to help Yuan Shao and Kong Ling respectively, attacking from both sides, Hu Zhen and Xu Rong will be defeated, and Dong Zhuo will be defeated.
When the tiger prison was closed, Dong Zhuo looked at the formation of the princes' coalition army, and couldn't help but admire: "Yuan Shao'er, if you are not a mediocre talent, such a battle, if the two armies meet, our Xiliang army may not be able to win." β
When Lu Bu heard this, he was not convinced, and snorted coldly: "Father-in-law, the child asks for battle, and he can be defeated by only leading the three thousand flying bear army in his headquarters." β
Dong Zhuo's words were precisely to provoke Lu Bu, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this: "Okay, my son is brave and brave and fights for his father." β
At that moment, Lu Bu really rode on the red rabbit horse, holding the Fang Tian painting halberd, and led the three thousand flying bear troops under his command to fight.
It's just that, compared with history, Lu Bu's lieutenant generals are not so pompous, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao and Cheng Lian are still under Ding Yuan's command, only Wei Xu, Song Xian, Hou Cheng and Cao Xing followed Lu Bu to surrender to Dong Zhuo, Hao Meng and Zang Ba have not yet met Lu Bu.
LΓΌ Bu led his army out of the city to drown, and immediately alarmed Yuan Shao, so he asked the princes who was the general who could defeat LΓΌ Bu.
What Mu Shun, what Fang Yue, what Gongsun Zhan fought Lu Bu, are all fake, but Pan Feng is real, and he has already returned to the princes' alliance with Ju Yi.
Seeing that no one made a sound among the princes, obviously everyone knew how powerful Lu Bu was, Pan Feng was not convinced, and shouted: "The last general, Pan Feng, is willing to fight Lu Bu." β
Yuan Shao raised his eyes and immediately asked, "But Hebei Admiral Pan Feng?" β
Pan Feng hugged his fists and shouted, "It's the last general." β
Yuan Shao was overjoyed and said: "General Pan is the first general in Hebei, and if General Pan comes out, he will be able to behead Na Lu Bu under the horse." β
Pan Fenglang said: "I don't dare to be so promoted by the alliance leader, the last general will fight this time, either Lu Bu will behead the last general under the horse, or the last general will behead Lu Bu under the horse, and ask the alliance leader to allow the last general to fight." β
Yuan Shaozheng was worried that no one would test Lu Bu's strength first, where would there be a possibility of not agreeing, so he immediately nodded and said: "Okay, General Pan is brave, and the leader of this alliance allows it, so you should set up a celebration banquet to celebrate General Pan." β
Pan Feng Langsheng said: "Order." Then he walked out, took the Xuanhua axe, and ordered three thousand military horses to meet Lu Bu.
Yuan Shao also knew that the outcome of this battle would have a great impact on the morale of the princes and the two armies, so he immediately called Yan Liang and Wen Chou again, asking them to sweep the battle for Pan Feng, and they must not lose Pan Feng's life.
This is also Yuan Shao's helpless move, after all, he is now attached to Han Fu, although he is now the leader of the coalition army, and he looks beautiful, but once the princes are disbanded, he is still the Bohai Taishou, so in case Pan Feng loses, Han Fu will use this as an excuse to raise troops to crusade against him in the future, and with his current strength, he will definitely not be able to resist.
Although Yan Liang and Wen Chou received Yuan Shao's order, they didn't think so in their hearts, they really wanted to see the joke and see how Pan Feng lost to Lu Bu, and it was best to be beheaded by Lu Bu.
The reason is very simple, Yan Liang and Wen Chou are also generals in Hebei, but Yuan Shao said that Pan Feng is the first general in Hebei, which is equivalent to ranking ahead of the two of them, how can these two be angry.
