Chapter 213: Three Slaves

Cao Yingdu stomped his feet and said angrily: "We are waiting to do great things and serve the court, how can we delay big things because of one person!" It's just that the matter has come to this point, and he can't do it, so he has to let Gongsun Zan lead Liu Bei down, and then send someone to send some wine and meat over, which can be regarded as a reward for Guan Yu.

But said Luoyang, Dong Zhuo heard that Huaxiong was defeated, and hurriedly gathered the generals and asked Li Ru for a strategy.

Li Ru suggested dividing the troops into two routes, one was for Li Dao and Guo Yan to lead 50,000 troops to take control of Bishui Pass, and one for Dong Zhuo to lead an army of 150,000 to Hujiao Pass. There were not only Lu Bu who went with him, but also more than 300 heads of the Yuan family.

Meteor Ma sent the news to Yuan Shao's camp, and Yuan Shao ordered Wang Kuang, Qiao Mao, Bao Xin, Yuan Yi, Sun Rong, Zhang Yang, Tao Qian, and Gongsun Hao to lead an army of 100,000 to meet the enemy at Tiger Prison Pass.

didn't want the Eighth Route Army to be killed by Lu Bu, Yuan Shao couldn't, so he personally led the army to meet the enemy.

When it was said, the tiger prison was closed, the battle flag was fluttering, the war drums shook the sky, and under the pass, Lu Bu led 30,000 iron cavalry to camp in the state, and on the opposite side, 300,000 Kwantung coalition troops were waiting for it.

As soon as Yuan Shao's army arrived at camp, spies came to report.

"Alliance leader, Lu Bu has come to call for battle!"

Yuan Shao was furious, "The shaft is so arrogant, everyone, why don't we meet this tiger!" ”

Lu Bu galloped back and forth on his horse, he wore a purple and gold crown with three-pronged hair, a Xichuan red cotton robe on his body, a beast-faced head swallowing chain armor, and a delicate lion belt around his waist; With a bow and arrow, holding a halberd, he sat down and neighed the red rabbit horse: sure enough, it was "Lu Bu among the people, and the red rabbit among the horses". shouted: "Lu Bu is here, who dares to fight!" As he spoke, the momentum of the sky spread, and a proud and invincible Ling Ran made the audience admire.

The princes were furious, first the famous general Fang Yue went to battle, the battle was not three, and the wine cup Lu Bu was stabbed to death, and then, the Shangdang Taishou Zhang Yang Department General Mu Shun, Wu Guoan, and Gongsun Zan went to war, all of them were defeated. The princes did not expect that Lu Bu was so brave, and they were all terrified for a while, and they were afraid of the innocent casualties of their subordinates, so they did not dare to send people to fight easily.

Seeing this, Liu Bei secretly said in his heart: "Now that the troubled times are coming, all the people here are famous people at that time, only I am unknown, if I want to achieve great things, I must establish a reputation, and at this time, isn't it an opportunity!" It's just that this Lu Bu is so brave, and I'm not an opponent, so what can I do? ”

Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly saw a person rushing out from behind him, holding a gun on a horse, and shouting: "Lu Buxiu is arrogant, see if I come to the east Tai Shi Ci will meet you!" ”

Liu Bei looked at it, and was immediately overjoyed, Tai Shi Ci was met by him on the way from the plains, he saw that Tai Shi Ci was extraordinary, so he deliberately intersected all the way, and the relationship between the three of them was very good, but although he recruited intentionally or unintentionally all the way, the other party always avoided it intentionally or unintentionally, Liu Bei knew that he was not worth enough, and he could only think about it in the long run.

Tai Shi Ci iron gallant flying dragon spear, white horse silver armor, seven feet seven inches long, beautiful beard, ape arms good shooting, carrying a pair of short halberds, handsome and extraordinary.

Lu Bu saw that this person was extraordinary, and after a careful look, he was not surprised but rejoiced, and shouted: "It looks good, but I don't know how I can take a halberd from a certain family!" ”

Tai Shi Ci sneered, "Lu Bu, don't be arrogant, watch a certain family behead you!" While speaking, the two fought, and after a period of "pounding and dingling", Tai Shici intuitively felt that his hands were numb, and his chest was churning. He took a long breath, "Lu Bu, sure enough, there are two hits, come again!" ”

Lu Bu had just made a move with him, and although he had the upper hand with his fast speed and extremely powerful arm strength, he no longer dared to underestimate Tai Shici. Haha laughed and said, "You are much stronger than those people just now." ”

The two of them shot again, and completely attacked, Lu Bu's crotch red rabbit horse is fast, martial arts are extraordinary, Tai Shici's marksmanship is exquisite, young and vigorous. After thirty or forty rounds of fighting between the two sides, Tai Shici gradually lost his opponent, and the situation was urgent. Tai Shi Ci was about to flee when he suddenly heard a shout from behind him.

"Brother Xian is panicking, someone is here to help you!"

It was Guan Yu who came, with the addition of Guan Yu, the battle situation changed again, even though Lu Bu was an invincible general in the world, but under the attack of these two, he could only be able to fight a draw. Liu Bei saw it in the back, his heart moved, and he knew that the opportunity was rare, so he immediately took out the double-strand sword and slapped the horse out.

"Two virtuous brothers, come for brothers!"

When Lu Bu saw it, he sneered, "No matter how many ants there are, how can they bite an elephant to death!" With a loud shout, he stabbed his feathers, leaned forward, and avoided a shot from Tai Shici behind him, Fang Tian's halberd swung and stabbed Liu Bei in the neck, in his mind, Liu Bei was the weakest link between the three of them, and only by killing Liu Bei could he deter them.

With this blow, Lu Bu was stunned for seven points, and with a stunning blow, Lu Bu seemed to see Liu Bei's neck being pierced.

However, things are often unexpected, and Lu Bu's exquisite shot was actually framed. A flush flashed on Liu Bei's face, and the tiger's mouth was almost shattered, but looking at the disbelief in Lu Bu's eyes, he smiled indifferently. Lao Tzu was also a tyrant in his hometown when he was a child, and he has practiced martial arts for many years, will he be so vegetable?

At this moment, Guan Yu Tai Shi Ci came up in the second circle, and if he missed the first opportunity to kill Liu Bei, there would be no second time, and Lu Bu knew this very well, Liu Bei would naturally not give it to him.

The three of them surrounded him and fought together, and Lu Bu was really brave, but under the siege of the three, he was gradually defeated.

The rise of the three-person killing, haha also laughed, Liu Bei shouted: "Two virtuous brothers, work hard, kill this thief." A positive dynasty. ”

Guan Yu and Tai Shi Ci agreed, and they became more and more ruthless, and after supporting them for thirty or forty rounds, Lu Bu finally couldn't withstand the siege of the three, but the three of them wanted to take Lu Bu for a while, but it was not so easy.

Lu Bu intuitively felt that his arms were sore and weak, and he was sweating all over, Tai Shi Ci was fast, Guan Yu Yanyue was sinking, and Liu Bei was sucking cold on the side to sneak attack, such a combination, Lu Bu who killed was frightened, knowing that the matter was urgent, and he couldn't stay for a long time, so he saw a hole at the moment, and separated the three weapons with one move, and the legs were lightly clamped, and the red rabbit horse was psychic, and quickly jumped out of the circle.

"You are a despicable villain, you win with more, you are not a hero!" Lu Bu shouted and fled to his camp. Liu Bei and the three of them ignored each other, and in the midst of a long whistle, the three of them let go of their mounts and chased out.

"Lu Bu Xiao'er will leave and accompany a certain family in the battle for three hundred rounds!" Guan Yu's shout woke up the stunned princes, and Cao Ying hurriedly said: "Originally, Lu Bu was defeated, and it was when I waited for the victory to pursue, so hurry up and give the order!" ”

Yuan Shao's heart moved, isn't this the time to consume their strength?

"The army is besieging the city!" In an instant, hundreds of thousands of people shouted and killed the tiger prison, Dong Zhuo was watching the pass, seeing Lu Bu's defeat, he was shocked, and when Lu Bu pulled out his horse and ran into the city gate, he immediately ordered: "Close the city quickly!" ”

"Prime Minister, our sergeants have not yet entered the city, how can we close the door!" A young general next to him hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

Dong Zhuo turned his head and saw that the man was a little strange, young, about twenty years old, slightly shorter, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a pair of bright eyes that looked shining.

Li Ru stepped forward and whispered: "Prime Minister, this person Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan are one of the eight strong generals under General Lu. ”

When Dong Zhuo heard this, he was immediately unhappy, and snorted: "Little First Captain, my father-in-law is talking, do you have the right to intervene." Close the door! ”

Zhang Liao's face suddenly turned red, and he retreated resignedly.

Dong Zhuo sneered in his heart, more than 10,000 soldiers under the city have not yet entered the city, how can he not see it, but after Lu Bu surrendered to him, the state army and horses have been reading their strength in the Xiliang army and are self-contained, which is resolutely intolerable for Dong Zhuo, but Lu Bu's strength is there, and he does not dare to move easily, now that there is an opportunity to consume Lu Bu's soldiers and horses, how can Dong Zhuo give up!

It's just that he didn't know that because of his thoughts, he missed Zhang Liao, a general.

Zhang Liao, whose name is far away, is a native of Mayi, Yanmen, and after Ben Nie Yi, he changed his surname to Zhang in order to avoid disasters. A famous general of Wei during the Three Kingdoms period. In the past, it was subordinate to Ding Yuan, Dong Zhuo, and Lu Bu. and Lu Bu was defeated and returned to Cao Ying. For the middle general, give the title of Marquis of Guannei. Under Cao Ying, he was deeply used, and it is not an exaggeration to call him the head of the five good generals.

Outside the pass was the siege of 100,000 troops, and the 10,000 soldiers and horses of the state were wiped out in a tea time. It's just that in the face of the Tiger Prison Pass, he can only look at the pass and sigh. An army of 150,000 guards such a majestic pass in the world, and who can break through it.

Yuan Shao ordered the siege of the city, but put his Bohai soldiers and horses behind, just waving the flag and shouting, seeing that the front could not be attacked, and it was not easy to do too obviously, so he had to order the troops to be withdrawn.

Back to the big tent, Cao Ying asked: "At the beginning, my army was hundreds of thousands here, why not go all out and take the Xiongguan!" ”

Yuan Shao smiled heartily, "Meng De, the enemy army is strong, and there is a strong pass, it is not something that can be attacked for a while, it is better to think about it in the long run, come to someone, send a banquet, and celebrate the great victory of our army today!" ”

After a while, at the banquet, Yuan Shao summoned a group of dancing girls, listened to Yale, looked at the dancing girls, drank wine, and chatted about the world, so happy.

At that moment, a spy suddenly came to report.

"Alliance leader, the enemy army has sent a box, please check it!"

Yuan Shao was drinking happily, and said with a smile: "This Dong Zhuo Lao'er doesn't know what to do, come on, open it and take a look!" ”

A soldier cautiously opened it low, and suddenly screamed in fright, leaned back, sat down on the ground, his eyes widened, and his face was frightened.

Yuan Shao looked at it, and suddenly shouted, "Uncle! Then he fell to the ground.

Some of the princes recognized that some of the heads inside were the Yuan family. Yuan Shao came back to life, Yuan Shao pushed away everyone's hands, stumbled and climbed to the front of the box, picked up Yuan Huai's head, burst into tears, and howled to the sky: "Dong Zhuo Lao'er, kill my whole family, I Yuan Shao will cut off your dog's head!" ”

Yuan Shu looked at Yuan Shao coldly, but there was no sadness in his heart, and he scolded secretly: "Yuan Benchu, my uncle is dead, and no one cares about you anymore, I'm afraid that you are the most proud!" ”

He and Yuan Shao had been at odds for a long time, and later experienced Han Jin's incident, which made Yuan Huai more and more disappointed in Yuan Shu, which directly led to Yuan Shu's dissatisfaction with Yuan Huai.

…… There was a murderous atmosphere in front of the Tiger Prison, but there was a quiet scene in front of the Bishui Pass.

At night, the stars are shining, and in Sun Jian's barracks, soldiers patrol from time to time. Sun Jian's big tent. The three lieutenant generals are all there. The four were studying the military situation.

"Report to the general, the enemy Li Dao has come to ask for a meeting."

Sun Jian frowned and glanced at Huang Gai, who shook his head and signaled that he didn't know.

"Pass him in!" In an instant, Sun Jian decided to see what he could do on his own territory.

After a while, Li Dao walked in with a smile on his face. "I've seen General Sun!"

"Come down, what do you have to say?" Sun Jian was defeated for a while, his heart was unhappy, and there was not the slightest dragging mud and water between his words.

Li Wei scolded secretly in his heart, laughed dryly, and said, "I heard that General Sun has a son under his knees, and he is not yet married!" ”

Sun Jian nodded, his heart becoming more and more confused.

Li Dao laughed and said, "Li congratulates the general, congratulations to the general!" ”

Sun Jian said: "Where does the joy come from? ”

Li Wei slowly took out a piece of paper from his arms and said with a smile: "General Sun, the prime minister heard that the general Huzi is extraordinary, and the prime minister has a daughter under his knees, with outstanding appearance and unparalleled talent, and the prime minister intends to marry the general to be good for Qin and Jin." Don't you know congratulations on such a happy event? ”

After listening to this, Sun Jian looked at Li Dao's grinning face, and suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed.

Before he could do so, he stopped, his tiger eyes widened, he glared at Li Dao angrily, and scolded loudly: "Dong Zhuo Lao'er, the rebel of the court, the cholera dynasty, the chaos of the harem, the heinous, a certain family is about to take its head, with the Zheng Dynasty Gang, how can there be a reason to marry, read you as a messenger, today I will let you go, get out of here, go back and let Dong Zhuo surrender quickly, lest there be no bones!" ”

Li Wei thought that with Dong Zhuo's status, Sun Jian would readily agree, but he didn't expect Sun Jian to be so pale, he wanted to be angry but didn't dare, and turned around and left in a gloomy manner.

When the news reached the Tiger Prison Pass, Dong Zhuo was stunned on the spot when he heard it, and after a while, he sat down on the chair and said in a daze: "Bishui Pass is in danger, and there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers in front of the Tiger Prison Pass.

Seeing this, Li Ru sighed gloomily, this person is not a person who has achieved great things after all.

"Lord, it is rumored that there is a Han in the west and a Han in the east. When the deer enters Chang'an, there is no difficulty. Chen Si said that 'the first Han in the west' should be Gaozu Wang in the western capital of Chang'an, and passed on the 12 emperors; 'The first Han in the east' should be Guangwuwang in the eastern capital Luoyang, and now it is also passed on to the 12 emperors. Fortune is back. If the lord wants to get through this difficulty, the only way is to avoid the edge for the time being! ”

Dong Zhuo said: "What does Wen You mean? ”

Li Ru bowed his hand and said proudly: "My lord, the Kwantung coalition army is hundreds of thousands, and we are not opponents, but their army comes from all over the world, the military discipline is scattered, and the generals are different, although they are working together. In wartime, they can still work together, but once they win, they will inevitably fight for power and kill each other. ”

Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru, slowly stomped his steps, and suddenly turned his head and asked, "What does Wen You mean - retreat?" ”

Li Ru nodded and said with a smile: "Prime Minister, take a step back and open the sky!" ”

Dong Zhuo thought about it carefully, and suddenly clapped his hands and laughed. "The old man has excellent literature, how fortunate he is!"

That night, Dong Zhuo ordered the whole army to retreat, and the hundreds of thousands of troops all quietly pulled to Luoyang overnight, and then, Dong Zhuo asked people to roll up the population of Luoyang, burn and loot, and burn Luoyang. By the time the coalition forces arrived, Luoyang had become a sea of fire.

…… Hanyang County, Taishou Mansion, Han Jin is dressed in armor and sits on the top position.

Below, on the left, Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia, Du Ji, Zhong Xuan sat firmly, and on the right Huang Zhong, Zhang Fei, Ma Teng, Gan Ning, Xu Huang, Ma Chao, Zhao Yun, Yan Xing and others were arranged in turn.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Dong Zhuo is almost in Chang'an, and now it's time for us to act. Commander, how is the army that needs to be prepared? ”

Xi Zhicai handed it over and said with a smile: "Lord, everything is ready, just wait for the lord's order, and the army can set off!" ”

Han Jin nodded, his face sank, he took a long breath, and ordered: "Generals listen to orders!" ”

"No!"

"Yide, you take a large army as the vanguard, kill Chang'an, kill Dong Zhuo, and take the Zheng Dynasty Gang!"

"The rest of the generals, follow the order!"

Everyone said yes and went down together.

It is said that Han Jin ordered 30,000 Xuanjia elite horsemen, 20,000 foot soldiers, slaughtered pigs and sheep, and swore an oath, murderous, killing the ancient capital Chang'an like a tornado.

Dong Zhuo fled all the way, and under Li Ru's strategy, he defeated Cao Ying, who was chasing, thinking that he was in control of everything, all the way he just held the hundred officials of the imperial court and the millions of residents of Luoyang, and slowly soared all the way to Chang'an.

Chang'an was originally the ancient capital, the palace is complete, just a little good repair, the emperor can move in.

When it was said, Dong Zhuo held a feast in the palace and feasted hundreds of officials. During the banquet, the women in the palace danced, and they got carried away for a while.

"Princes, the Kanto rebel thief is powerful, the old man has no choice but to retreat, retreat, just rest and recuperate, and wait for the opportunity, he said that Luoyang will be concurrent, revive the prestige of the past, and hope that all the kings will encourage you!"

After Dong Zhuo finished speaking, he toasted a glass of wine to the ministers. Raise your head and drink it all.

Although the hundred officials were dissatisfied in their hearts, no one dared to act in the confrontation, Dong Zhuo killed the Taifu Yuan Huai's family in Luoyang, and then beheaded Wu Qiong and dozens of other courtiers.

Wang Yun snorted secretly in his heart, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter.

"The prime minister is the pillar of the country, he bears the hundred-year hope of my Han Dynasty, and the prime minister refers to the might, he said that he will be able to eradicate these thieves and let them die and bury them!" After speaking, he also raised his head and drank it all.

Dong Zhuo laughed loudly, "The master has won the award, the old man wants to be a big man, and he still needs the help of the princes!" ”

Li Ru glanced at Wang Yun, and his heart moved, thoughtful. At the moment, all the officials congratulated, and Dong Zhuo's old department was even more happy and smiling.

Just then, a figure stumbled in.

"Prime Minister Bing, something is wrong!"

Dong Zhuo drank seven or eight points of wine, he was already a little drunk, and when he heard this, he jumped up, immediately grabbed a wine glass and threw it over, smashing it on the head of the stall, and suddenly a big bag rose on his head.

"Bastard, my father has a banquet with all his colleagues, you dare to say such an unlucky thing, you must be looking for death!"

The spy was startled, and for a moment lay on the ground in a daze, forgetting to answer. Li Ru squinted at Dong Zhuo, and suddenly said, "Lord, why don't you listen!"

Dong Zhuo has always been obedient to Li Ruyan, so he extinguished his anger, "Say it!" What is it that is so flustered? ”

"Prime Minister, General Zhenxi led tens of thousands of troops to Chang'an to kill!" The spy had a good vegetarian diet in his heart, and after being scolded by Dong Zhuo, he calmed down and said a few words fluently.

...... "What? What did you say? Dong Zhuomo stood up suddenly, his eyes were as big as bull's eyes, and he was seriously full of disbelief, looking at the spy, looking like he was choosing someone to devour.

The spy was frightened here. Stunned, he stammered and said, "Town...... Zhenxi ...... Checkmate...... Tens of thousands of troops...... Toward...... Long...... Long ......"
