Chapter 286: Entering the Throne

At the moment when the Mengjin fortress was broken by the earth-shattering three blows, in the fortress, the open jaw grew and lost his mind, the generals at all levels lost their minds, and all the soldiers collectively lost their minds. The entire fortress fell into an eerie silence in an instant.

"This is immortal art!" Zhang Jaw turned pale and muttered to himself.

After two breaths, as if agreed, the 200,000 troops in the fortress exploded in an instant!

"Run! The heavenly soldiers have descended to earth! ”

"Immortal! Immortals! ”

"The gods are here!"

All the people, even many of the generals, were like headless flies, losing their blades, panicking, and scurrying in all directions.

Crash, big crash!

If you say why Yuan Shaojun was defeated so quickly, it was only because he saw the Youzhou army's combined attack technique for the first time. Don't you hear that during the Battle of Gaotang, the Xiahou brothers also surrendered unconditionally?

In the fortress, the chaotic shouts made the jaw fierce and almost sit on the ground.

"Quick! Hurry up and get the order down, and gather the army! We retreat! ”

At this time, the heavy infantry of Zhang Fei, Wei Yan, and Zhang Yan had already entered the Mengjin fortress.

In the dark heavy infantry formation, patches of snow-bright sword walls fell, and where they passed, houses collapsed and men and horses were shattered. The panicked Yuan Jun didn't have the slightest intention to resist at all, and the military spirit was completely lost.

At the same time, on the fleet, light infantry, light cavalry, heavy cavalry, crossbowmen and other types of troops landed one by one, and the whole line was pressed up!

It was that Zhou Tai, because of the heartache of the casualties of the soldiers under his command, who also led a team of elite soldiers and rushed into the Mengjin fortress.

Meng Jin, about to fall!

Luoyang.

Knowing that the Youzhou army was attacking Mengjin, Yuan Shao was restless, did not eat two meals, and had been waiting for the battle report from Zhang Jaw.

"Report!"

Suddenly, there was a loud shout, which made Yuan Shao tremble, and he stood up suddenly, "Come in!" Say! ”

"Report to the general, the city wall is broken, Meng Jin is in a hurry!"

"What!?" Yuan Shao only felt a cool breath, rushing up from the spring in the center of his feet, reaching the heavenly spirit, and his whole body was cold and cold.

"How so!? How so! ”

"How could my Mengjin fortress be breached? That's impossible! Someone, pull him down, behead! Yuan Shao's voice was so fierce that he couldn't believe it at all.

"The general spares his life, spares his life!" When the soldier who reported the news heard this, he immediately cried out: "The enemy army has broken through the city wall with heavy infantry with heavy infantry against the arrows, and it is none of my business, not my business!" ”

"Slashed!"

Yuan Shao yelled hysterically.

With a scream outside, Yuan Shao finally calmed down a little.

He stared at a pair of bloodshot eyes, walked back and forth, and after a while, shouted out the door: "Come on, pass on Guo Tu, Feng Ji, Jian Yong!" ”

After a while, Guo Tu, Feng Ji, and Jian Yong hurriedly entered the study.

"Mengjin is broken, it is about to fall, and Luoyang is in danger!"

Yuan Shao was the first to say a sentence, and the three of them were stunned.

"What's the right moment? Wait until you come up with an idea! ”

The three of you, you look at me, I look at you, and they are speechless.

If Meng Jin is broken, Luoyang will lose the north gate, like a naked [***] girl, presented in front of a group of wolf-like men. In this way, there is no way to return to the sky. Even though the three of them are resourceful, where do they have any ideas for a while?

"Say it quickly!"

Yuan Shao drank more than once.

All three were pale and speechless.

"Rubbish! Rubbish! Yuan Shao scolded: "If Xu Ziyuan is still here, he will definitely be able to give General Ben an idea, you, the three of you are all waste!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the three changed drastically.

Xu You, Yuan Shao mentioned the Xu You who had been dead for many years.

At the beginning, Xu Yu was valued by Yuan Shao the most, and he pressed several people underneath, which can be said to be an eternal pain in the hearts of several people. Now, Yuan Shao brought up this dead man and compared him, how could a few people stand it? !

"Lord, Meng Jin has been broken, the only way to do this is to go now!"

Guo Tu stiffened his head, stepped forward and said, "Either defend Luoyang City." With the height and thickness of the Luoyang city wall, it may not be impossible to block the enemy army. or retreat immediately"

When Yuan Shao heard this, his whole body was stagnant.

Yuan Shao, who was defending it, remembered the destruction of the Mengjin fortress, and felt that Luoyang City would definitely not be able to stop the pace of the Youzhou army. To defend is to defend to death! There is no way to live.

And where did the retreat go? Where else can we retreat? The fall of Meng Jin made Yuan Shao no longer believe in any Xiongguan danger, and the Tiger Prison Pass was useless, not to mention, outside the Tiger Prison Pass, there was also the Youzhou army! And what about Jingzhou, Yuzhou, and even retreating to Jiangnan? It's just a matter of breathing. Moreover, Luoyang is his foundation, without Luoyang and Si Li, he has no chance to turn over!

If to the west, Yuan Shao immediately denied it. Xiliang is Liu Yuan's territory, and now that Mengjin has been broken, then Chang'an may not be guaranteed, withdrawn, and simply sent to death!

Yuan Shao was full of entanglement.

It is said that Zhang Fei broke through Mengjin, and the guard was about to escape, but was blocked by the cavalry guarding outside and captured him.

At this point, the battle of Mengjin was won.

The high-spirited Zhang Fei was about to threaten the momentum of a big victory and capture Luoyang in one fell swoop, but he got Liu Yuan's secret order brought by Zhang Zhao.

Liu Yuan ordered him to be stationed on the spot and stand by to move.

When Zhang Fei saw this, he lost all his strength, as if the whole person was a few points shorter.

"Strategist, what do you mean by this, my lord?"

Zhang Fei asked.

Zhang Zhao smiled and said, "The lord has his own reason, just be on standby." ”

Yanzhou, Juye.

After receiving the order of General Liyi, the three-way army of Pan Feng, Tai Shici, and Cao Bao immediately set off, marched together, contracted the encirclement, approached Juye, and approached the city. At the same time, Koji Yi led his own army and also killed here.

The entire 100,000 Youzhou elite army, plus 100,000 Xuzhou troops, surrounded Juye. Seeing this, the Xiahou brothers didn't say anything, and simply opened the city and surrendered - anyway, it was not the first time, and there was not much pressure.

Then, the pawn was handed over to Cao Bao for custody, and Lu Yi took a few important prisoners, gathered a large army, caught up with Zhao Yun, and came to Bishui Pass.

There was no one in Bishui Pass for a long time, so it was naturally easy to enter the pass, and then after a day of rest, 150,000 Youzhou elite troops pulled out and killed the Tiger Pass.

The Tiger Prison Pass is close to the water and the mountain, and it is very majestic, but how can it block the combined attack of the Youzhou army?

The cavalry army took turns to fight, and after several consecutive combined attacks, they broke through the Tiger Prison Pass. At that time, Cao Ying slipped and fled to Luoyang with the remnants. Lu Yi and Zhao Yun were waiting to catch up, but they also received Liu Yuan's order to lead the army to take Xuanyuan Pass, Dagu Pass, Yique Pass, Revolving Gate Pass and other passes in the south of Luoyang.

The two did not dare to slack off, divided their troops and horses, and hurried away in the starry night, and after a while, they captured these passes.

When Cao Ying fled to Luoyang and met Yuan Shao, they looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

Now that the Tiger Pass has fallen, Mengjin has fallen, and the north and east gates of Luoyang City have fallen into the hands of the Youzhou army, this Yanjing has almost become an isolated city.

"After the Youzhou army broke through Mengjin, somehow, it didn't move." Yuan Shao said: "My Luoyang, right under their noses, has not attacked, but it is a little strange. ”

After listening to Yuan Shao's words, Cao Ying instantly remembered that after the Youzhou army broke through the Tiger Prison Pass, they did not pursue it, and in his heart, he turned his eyes to Xun Yu on the side.

Xun You's face changed, and he suddenly shouted, "Enter!" ”

Cao Ying was stunned when he heard this, and his heart was miserable.

At this time, another soldier came to report.

"General, Zang Hong and Gao Ran, two generals, lost Chang'an and retreated to Hangu Pass, but they lost Hangu Pass and are retreating in the direction of Luoyang."

Yuan Shao and Cao Ying's faces turned pale.

Then, within half an hour, a succession of soldiers reported on the battle.

"Xuanyuan Pass is lost!"

"Otani Pass is lost!"

"The revolving door is lost!"

"Yique Pass is lost!"

"It's really a good thing!" Yuan Shao stumbled a few times and almost fell to the ground.

This Luoyang, isn't it a big pit? The Tiger Prison Pass was lost, and the East Gate was lost; Mengjin lost and lost the northern gate; Xuanyuan, Otani and other passes were lost, and the southern gateway was lost; Hangu Pass was lost, and the west gate was lost.

Up to now, the entire Luoyang has completely fallen into an encirclement, and he Yuan Shao and Cao Ying are difficult to fly!

No wonder the Youzhou army did not rush forward after breaking through the pass, but it turned out to be this idea!

Half a day later, Zang Hong and Gao Ran led the army to arrive.

There are 200,000 people in this army! Because, among them, not only Yuan Shao's army, but also Gongsun Zan and Zhang Lu were among them!

The four princes were opposite, and the situation suddenly became clear.

Gongsun Zan was defeated by Gao Shun, retreated south in panic, retreated to Chang'an, and fought against Gao Shun's army with Zang Hong and others. Then Zhang Lu was defeated by Liu Zhang and Ma Chao, and retreated north in panic and also withdrew to Chang'an. The three-way army of hundreds of thousands guarded Chang'an, but it was broken by the 250,000 army of Gao Shun, Xu Huang, Huang Chang, and Ma Chao.

So he withdrew to the east of Hangu.

Hangu lost and retreated to Luoyang.

Now, the four princes of the Central Plains have all fallen into the huge pit of Luoyang.

"So, we're done?"

Zhang Lu swallowed his saliva, his mind blank.

In an instant, a few people were ten years old, and they all stumbled for a few points, and each of them stopped talking. The entire hall was silent.

"I think we'll be able to see Liu Zihong soon."

Cao Ying got up, said a word, and went out.

The next time, the eastern, southern, western, and northern Youzhou armies poured out.

Lu Yi, Zhao Yun, Gao Shun, Huang Chang, Xu Huang, Ma Chao, Zhang Fei and various military divisions, Xi Zhicai, Zhang Zhao, Man Chong, Chen Deng, Cheng Yu, each led soldiers and horses, a total of 500,000 troops, under the city of Luoyang, surrounded this thousand-year-old Yanjing, where the Dragon Court is located, and the water is impassable.

Third, Liu Yuan personally led 2,000 personal guards, and brought Dian Wei, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Fu Zhu, Chen Qun, Jia Xu, and the sailors Gan Ning and Zhou Taiqi here.

Inside the big tent, Liu Yuan sat on the main seat with a smile.

Under the hall, a cadre of civil and military officers was ranked in turn and sat opposite each other.

"It's a pity that Yan Liang and Yuan Hao didn't have the opportunity to come here to witness this last moment." Guo Jia said with a smile.

Everyone nodded in unison.

The remaining four princes of the Central Plains were all trapped in Luoyang City, and this battle was the last battle of the Central Plains, and it was a battle of historical surnames. Yan Liang is now subduing Xuzhou, and Tian Feng is backed by Linzi, but he does not have this opportunity to participate in witnessing this moment of history.
