Chapter 169, Hangu is heavily rewarded

"It's true, the little one doesn't dare to deceive the alliance leader, it is indeed Zhang Yan's men and horses, and the banner is fighting the Black Mountain General who is poisonous and stubborn, the men and horses are endless, the camp tent stretches for more than 20 miles, and the soldiers and horses are no less than 100,000."

"One hundred thousand?" Yuan Shao exclaimed, and retreated a few steps back in a daze, almost sitting on the ground.

"Huh?" gasped, although Cao Cao never spoke, his face became extremely gloomy, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, and sighed helplessly, Cao Cao looked up at Yuan Shao, "Originally, in this way, Zhang Yan must have been persuaded by Dong Zhuo to mobilize 100,000 troops to enter Mengjin, and the comers were not good, they not only guarded the east side, but also cut off the grain route for us, their hearts are really sinister." ”

"Come on." The situation was grim, Cao Cao immediately summoned the scouts to the front, whispered an instruction, and sent them out.

"Report, Zhang Yan led 100,000 Montenegrin troops to hold Chenggao."

"Report, Xiliang Han Sui commanded 20,000 troops in Tongguan, and the army of Huangfu Song, the general of Fufeng and Han Sui and Zhang Lu, was no less than 100,000, and they were coming straight to Beijing from the west side through Lantian."

"Report, Lu Bu, Xu Rong, and Liu Bei have left the Tiger Prison Pass and are coming to Luoyang."

"Report, Yanmen Zhang Liao doesn't know where to go."

"Report, in the direction of Hedong, Dong Yi's men and horses have not been found."

The reports sent out returned one after another, and the astonishing news came one after another, and the princes of the Kwantung region, who originally thought that the overall situation had been decided, were all stunned and speechless for a long time.

"Han Sui, a dog thief, actually fornicated with Dong Zhuo behind my back, ah... How can this be true, I will kill him in the future. ”

Ma Teng was the first to break the silent atmosphere, gritted his teeth and stunned, Ma Teng stomped his feet angrily, the princes of the Eighteen Roads, except for him, were all in Kanto. Only he was in Guanxi, Han Sui raised troops, and he also held Tongguan, plus Huangfu Song and others. Ma Teng's retreat has been completely cut off, and I am afraid that even if he wants to return to the base camp, it will be difficult to climb to the sky.

"East side, west side. On the south side, there are enemy soldiers on all three roads, this move is really amazing, I'm afraid, Dong Zhuo has already set up a trick, only the north, although he has not found any vision for the time being, it is also reasonable, after all, there is a way to the east of the river to the border stop. Dong Zhuo predicts that we will never go far and near. Standing in front of the map in the tent, Cao Cao stared at it for a long time and muttered a long sigh.

The morale of the princes in the tent was low for a while, even if they had the advantage now, they would be able to capture Luoyang in a few days, but since Huangfu Song, Lu Bu, Xu Rong, Zhang Yan and others were sandwiched, how could they sit and wait for the allies to break the city, but they were afraid that they would be covered up and killed immediately. In addition, the supply of food and grass could not be connected, and everyone's pride and ambition yesterday were all replaced by the fear of danger coming, and no one dared to mention the plan to attack the city again. Now that the allies are almost in a desperate situation, they have to plan a way out, otherwise, they will inevitably become fish and meat on the board, and they can only be slaughtered by Dong Zhuo and others at will.

Cao Cao raised his head suddenly, his eyes looking at the people in the tent. With a glint in his eyes and a compelling momentum, Cao Cao said loudly, "While the grain and grass can still support it for a few days, everyone, Luoyang is temporarily abandoned, and the Tiger Prison Pass must be taken back, otherwise, there is no way to retreat, and there is no need for thieves to encircle and suppress, I am afraid that we will also mess up." As for the east and west sides, there are heavy troops, rash attack, by no means the best policy, not to mention, the Tiger Prison Pass is the closest to the Kanto, to capture the Tiger Prison Pass, advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended, this is a foolproof strategy. ”

Gongsun Zhan nodded and agreed, "What Meng De said is very good, even if the guards of the Tiger Prison Pass are strict, they can't withstand Luoyang's defenses, not to mention that we still have so many soldiers and horses at the moment, and taking the Tiger Prison in one go, it will definitely be like digging into the bag to get something, not to mention that Lu Bu and Xu Rong have already led the troops out of the Tiger Prison Pass, and they must want to take advantage of our siege from behind, so that the defenders of the Tiger Prison Pass must be insufficient in strength and lax in defense." ”

………………

Lu Bu was eager to fight, and learned that the princes of Kwantung were going to attack Luoyang, so he naturally did not want to defend in the Tiger Prison Pass, even Liu Bei was the same, only by killing the enemy and beheading the generals, in order to make meritorious contributions, now the allied birds are not birds and Tiger Prison Pass, at the moment Liu Bei and Guan Yu Zhang Fei Jian Yong discussed, they were not willing to stay in the Tiger Prison Pass, Guo Jia did not stop it, not only Lu Bu left, Liu Bei also left, even the generals sent by Xu Rong to capture the pass before also left, Lu Bu only left 5,000 men and horses for Guo Jia.

In this regard, Guo Jia not only did not complain at all, but also said, "Five thousand people are enough!" Even if the allies really attacked on a large scale, Guo Jia let them return with a feather and could not take the pass. ”

Lu Bu was relieved to lead the troops away, Liu Bei couldn't wait to lead the men and horses to Luoyang, after everyone left, Guo Jia hurriedly gathered the soldiers to his side, after some instructions, many soldiers quietly left the Tiger Prison Pass, although more flags were erected on the city tower, but, everyone understands that the Tiger Prison Pass garrison is very empty, and even looks like it is a lot deserted.

But even so, the soldiers guarding the city could not see the slightest nervousness and uneasiness on Guo Jia's face, Guo Jia still had a calm face, always with a kind and gentle smile on his face, and even wrote poems and paintings, eating and sleeping, as leisurely and comfortable as in the past.

"Report, the allied army suddenly withdrew from Luoyang, and was rushing in the direction of the Tiger Pass, Sun Jian and Cao Cao were two people, and now they are less than 100 miles away from the Tiger Pass."

The scout hurriedly rushed into Guo Jia's study, and didn't bother to take a breath, so he reported the information to Guo Jia in one go, for fear of delaying the big event, but, after finishing speaking, he looked at the military division, and saw that the military division did not raise his head, and his eyes were still looking directly at a picture of a lady on the bookcase.

"Come here." After a while, Guo Jia beckoned and beckoned the scout who reported the news to the front.

"Strategist, what do you command?" Seeing that the military advisor was staring at the beauty on the picture scroll without blinking, his eyes were a little straight, and the scout was a little stupid, and secretly said in his heart, "When is this?" It's almost burning eyebrows, military advisor, let's not stay so idle, right? Didn't you hear what you just reported, do you want me to say it again? ”

The scout hesitated for a moment, and was about to repeat it again, but Guo Jia asked him without looking back, "What do you say is the figure of the woman in this painting?" ”

"Military Division, the big thing is not good, the Guanqian army has turned around and is coming in unison, and now it is less than 100 miles away from the Tiger Pass." The scout was about to cry, looking at Guo Jia with tears in his eyes, his legs were weak, and he actually knelt down in front of Guo Jia with a pleading, "Strategist, you should pay attention quickly." ”

"Hey..." Guo Jia glanced at the scout, let out a long sigh, and finally reluctantly glanced at the beauty on the scroll, and sighed, "It's a pity, it's a pity, it's hard to find a bosom friend to appreciate such a masterpiece." ”

"Bosom friend?" The scout cried with a sad face, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, when is this happening, what kind of soulmate are you looking for, it is important to resist the enemy!

"Let's go, come with me to the city."

Waving his hand helplessly, Guo Jia picked up the white feather fan on the desk, paced leisurely, and walked out of the study slowly and freely, and the scout hurriedly got up from the ground and hurriedly followed.

Liu Bei Lu Bu's two people, halfway happened to meet the army of the Kwantung princes, without saying a word, the two sides launched a fierce fight, Lu Bu Guan Yu Zhang Fei although brave, but the allies are not lacking in the ability to fight bravely, not to mention the other party's army of hundreds of thousands, the advantage is very obvious, a few rounds of charges, Lu Bu Liu Bei had to withdraw the troops and defeat, this battle, both sides have lost a lot of soldiers, it is considered to be a win, however, if Lu Bu Liu Bei does not withdraw in time, fight to the end, the result will inevitably be wiped out, after all, The difference in the strength of the two sides is too great.

"Report, the general of Fufeng Guard, Huangfu Song, led 30,000 troops, and has settled down in Hangu Pass."

Seeing that the majestic and upright shadow of the Tiger Prison Pass was seen not far away, a probe horse galloped to the front of everyone in a hurry, and the scout on the horseback may have been too anxious, almost slipped off the horse's back, and fell all over the body, unable to take a breath, and hurriedly galloped to Yuan Shao to report.

"Hangu Pass."

Yuan Shao and the others took a breath of cold air in unison, if it was not too surprising to learn that Han Sui sent people to defend Tongguan before, then at this moment, Huangfu Song led 30,000 elite soldiers to defend Hangu Pass, and almost knocked everyone into the bottomless abyss.

Because Hangu Pass, like the Tiger Pass, surrounded by mountains on both sides, the terrain is steep, leading to the land of Kansai, can only pass through Hangu Pass, there is no other shortcut, not to mention, Hangu Pass is almost hundreds of miles forward than Tongguan, that is to say, the space left for the Kwantung princes to stand on has been squeezed a lot again, if it is really surrounded by iron walls on all sides, this cage is not only extremely narrow, but also is simply impregnable.

"Hangu Pass, easy to defend and difficult to attack, sitting on the danger of the mountains, can be described as a husband and a pass, ten thousand people are invincible, the guard will be the famous general of the Han Dynasty Huangfu Song, this person commands the army, extremely good, by him to guard the Hangu Pass, although the soldiers and horses are only 30,000, but it is better than 100,000 divine soldiers, the west side, it seems that we don't have to think about it, for today's plan, quickly besiege the Tiger Prison Pass, otherwise, the consequences are unimaginable, I am afraid, the north of the mountain, will not be peaceful, what kind of character Li Ru is, since the laying of such a vast net, how can we be left to retreat."

In Cao Cao's opinion, it must be Li Ru and Li Wenyou who set up such a trick for Dong Zhuo!

To Huangfu Song, the Kwantung princes are not unfamiliar, in the past encircled and suppressed the Yellow Turban, whether it was Cao Cao, or Sun Jian, Yuan Shao and others, at that time, they were all under the orders of Huangfu Song, in the eyes of Huangfu Song, they were just a few fledgling immature babies, Huangfu Song was famous, and his military achievements were impressive. There, there is the invincible Huangfu Song guarding!

"Attack the city immediately." When he came to the Tiger Prison, he couldn't help but say, without waiting for Yuan Shao's order, Cao Cao directly raised the Yitian Sword in his hand and roared angrily in the air.

was robbed of the limelight, Yuan Shao pursed his lips stupidly, a little deflated, but he also knew that the situation was urgent, and it was not the time to be in the limelight. (To be continued.) )
