Chapter 228: Hunt down Dong Zhuo
Thinking that it was time to ask for Dong Zhuo's head, Zhang Shuang said to Dian Wei: "Go down and call Xun Gongda to me." β
"No."
Dian Wei promised to go down. It didn't take long for Dian Wei to walk in with Xun You. Xun You was also very energetic, and it was obvious that Dian Wei had already told him what had happened.
"Map." After Xun You came in, he immediately took out a map from his sleeve and placed it between Zhang Shuang and himself. There are four counties on it.
In the north, there is Beidi County in the state, Fufeng County in the west, Jingzhao County in the south, and Fengyi County in the east. The rest of the counties are only rough, and only the thirteen cities of Feng Yi County are specified.
After putting the map on the table, Xun You made a gesture of embracing and said: "When Dong Zhuo went north, the general sent nine generals to guard a city in order to protect the territory and the people. And now this ploy has turned into a big net. β
As he spoke, Xun You pointed to Yunyang City in the middle and left, and said, "We are in Yunyang with Dong Zhuo, he has 130,000 soldiers and horses, and 30,000 cavalry. We have 40,000 cavalry and about 10,000 infantry. β
Then Xun You pointed to Fufeng County again: "There are thirty or forty thousand elite soldiers of Yan Xing here, and they can also block Ma Teng and Han Sui." Dong Zhuo is the turtle in the urn. β
Finally, Xun You pointed to the county town in the north of Yunyang City: "Dong Zhuo will definitely escape." Although Dong Zhuo could also flee north, it was impossible for him to abandon the 80,000 troops of Jingzhao Yin County. So he will definitely flee south. We can mobilize the generals of the cities in the north of Yunyang City to travel overnight and join the generals in the south. In this way, the big net will be more resilient. Coupled with the strength of our central Yunyang City, Dong Zhuo fled south to harass us along the way, and even if he returned to Jingzhao County to join the 80,000 elite soldiers he left behind, it would be a great loss of troops. When the time came, more than 100,000 of us chased down Jingzhao County, and then ordered the Zhenxi General Zong to lead 60,000 soldiers and horses from the north and south battalions of Luoyang to besiege Jingzhao County. β
"Yes, give the order." Zhang Shuang pondered it carefully and ordered.
"No."
Xun Yu promised and went down quickly.
"The hunt for Dong Zhuo has begun." Zhang Shuang rubbed his hands. Excited.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Yan Xing did a really good job, and the news of his seizure of power has not been delivered. Dong Zhuo mistakenly thought that Ma Teng, after Han Sui dealt with the affairs of the Qiang people. You can rush back quickly.
Zhang Shuang mobilized his troops, and besieging Dong Zhuo was taking advantage of the darkness, so Dong Zhuo never found out.
Three days later, Dong Zhuo noticed the wind and knew about Zhang Shuang's troop movement.
"It's trying to trap me. Am I like a king-size fish? Dong Zhuo and Jia Xu looked at the map together, Dong Zhuo's eyebrows were twisted into a rope, and he scolded.
At the same time, I also felt a feeling of suffocation, like a turtle in an urn.
"It seems that Zhang Shuang has made up his mind to encircle and suppress us. He has 40,000 cavalry to gain the upper hand, and in the long run, we are definitely no opponent. It is better for us to send troops to the west and join Yan Xing and Pang De in Fufeng County. In this way, we have 100,000 troops, which can guard and support the wind. Jia Xu suggested.
"But isn't that far away from Jingzhao County??" Dong Zhuo hesitated.
"It doesn't matter. There is Li Ru in Jingzhao County, and nothing can happen. On the contrary, if Zhang Shuang wants to cross the Yellow River and attack Jingzhao County, we will attack Fengyi County from the west, Zhang Shuang will definitely not dare. In this way, we can form a corner and stabilize the situation for the time being. Jia Xu said.
"Okay, that's it."
Dong Zhuo patted his thigh and decided.
"Woooooo
In Dong Zhuo's camp, a whining horn sounded, and soon after, the army began to move west. Defected to Fufeng County in Yan Xing.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦.
Zhang Shuang immediately got the news, and boarded the city with Xun You, Lu Bu and others, and watched Dong Zhuo's army go west.
"That's kind of interesting. Dong Zhuo actually planned to join Yan Xing? Zhang Shuang said with interest.
"If it weren't for Yan Xing's rebellion, this move would also stabilize the situation. The one who made the move is not mediocre. Xun You said.
"No matter whether the person who makes the move is mediocre or not, as long as Yan Xing is there, it is his weakness. We can expand the results even more. Zhang Shuang smiled, and then ordered Lu Budao: "Fengxian, you lead Huaxiong, Yu Fuluo and other 40,000 cavalry." Slowly follow to the west. Don't rush to attack first, and after Dong Zhuo is rejected by Yan Xing, launch an attack when morale is low. β
"No."
Lu Bu suddenly agreed, and led the generals to pursue Dong Zhuo with 40,000 cavalry.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"The life of the rider will be broken." After Dong Zhuo got the news, he was not surprised, and immediately ordered his remaining 30,000 cavalry to be cut off and rushed to Fufeng County.
Because of the heavy baggage and the huge amount of grain and grass, Dong Zhuo walked for three days along the way, and he was relieved that Lu Bu's cavalry did not attack.
When Huaili City appeared in front of Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief. smiled at Jia Xu and said: "Fortunately, I also strengthened and repaired this city at the beginning, and more than 100,000 soldiers guarded it together, which can block Zhang Shuang's 300,000 soldiers." β
Jia Xu's face was a little solemn, and he looked at the city head a little strangely and said, "This city is too quiet." β
Dong Zhuo also noticed it, and immediately wondered: "How can there be no one?" β
"I'm Dong Zhuo, General Yan Xing, General Pang De, open the city gate quickly." Dong Zhuo shouted.
"Hahahaha, Dong Zhuo, the city gate won't open, I'll send you a burst of arrows." On the quiet city, Yan Xing's vigorous figure suddenly appeared, and he laughed and said to Dong Zhuo.
"Whoosh."
"Kill."
With a roar, countless archers appeared on the city and released arrows towards the city. Arrows rained down, and whistling came and went.
"Ahhhh
Countless Xiliang soldiers under the city screamed and were shot dead on the spot. Dong Zhuo is protected, it's fine. But he was furious and shouted: "Yan Xing, I am an ally with your general, how dare you!!! β
"Hahaha, are you kidding??? Are you an ally of the Great General? Yan Xing laughed wildly, hearty and majestic.
"You surrendered Zhang Shuang????" Dong Zhuo said in surprise and anger.
"What do you mean by surrender??? It's really ugly, I'm originally Han. And the general is an auxiliary minister of the Han family, but Han Sui, Ma Teng and you are traitors. Yan Xing shouted categorically.
"Shoot !!!"
Immediately, Yan Xing roared again.
"Whoosh." The arrows fell even more violently on the city.
"Shameless villain." Dong Zhuo yelled.
"My lord, don't worry about that. Let's go. We couldn't stay here, so we went back the way we came, and returned to Jingzhao County from the ferry. Jia Xu yelled.
"Let's go." Dong Zhuo had to grit his teeth and swallow the blood, and yelled.
"I will definitely come, I will definitely come back. Kill you, Yan Xing, Yan Xing. Dong Zhuo yelled in his heart.
"Hahahaha!" Yan Xing laughed endlessly, then waved his hand and said to the left and right: "Hang the Han flag." β
"No." With Yan Xing's order, the Han flag was hung on the city. Then someone asked: "General, do you want to pursue?" β
"No need. I forcibly controlled the army, and the top and bottom were not in unison. It's okay to defend the city, and going out of the city to pursue Dong Zhuo must be a bad thing. It's better to let the fierce generals under the command of the general do it for you. The general is san, and he will definitely not let Dong Zhuo go back to Jingzhao County in vain. Da Yan Xing shook his head and said, very clearly.
"No."
β¦β¦β¦β¦
",!!!" Soon, Dong Zhuo led his troops out of the range of Huaili City, and he didn't need to count the soldiers to know that he had lost one or two thousand men and horses.
Although Yan Xing didn't chase after him, Dong Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief. But it also gave him more strength to scold.
Very, very unhappy.
"Report to the lord, the cavalry general who was ordered to break off is engaged in battle with Lu Bu. Something is wrong. "The house leak happened to be raining, and at this time, a scout came to report.
"Damn, Lu Bu also came to bully me. Hurry up and catch up and fight with Lu Bu. Dong Zhuo scolded, and then the army hurried forward.
"Let's go."
Lu Buzheng fought with Dong Zhuo's cavalry and killed five or six thousand people. Seeing that Dong Zhuo's army was back, he immediately laughed and led his troops to retreat decisively.
",."
When Dong Zhuobujun came, Lu Bu had long since disappeared. Count the soldiers, and lose a large army. My teeth are crushed.
"Let's go, to the south, to the south, let's go back to Jingzhao County." Dong Zhuo yelled.
"Hang from afar." Lu Bu ordered not far away.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The county under it is an important city in the south of Fengyi County, which is on the road to the south of Dong Zhuo. When Zhang Shuang ordered the mobilization of the army, the generals Tai Shici, Sun Ce, and Cheng Pu were ordered to defend it.
The three of them always sent spies to inquire about Dong Zhuo's situation and gather troops.
"Report to the general, Dong Zhuo is ten miles away." There are spies to report.
"General Lu Bu can follow behind?" Tai Shi Ci was pleasantly surprised.
"Yes." The spy said.
"Send troops to intercept Dong Zhuo."
Tai Shi Ci laughed.
"No." Sun Ce and Cheng Pu agreed with a bang, and the three generals led 18,000 elite soldiers to pursue.
"Kill !!"
At the same time, Lu Bu also shrewdly led the cavalry to attack Dong Zhuo and engaged Dong Zhuo's cavalry. And Dong Zhuo's army of 100,000 infantry troops has both food and baggage, and the army is scattered, so they can't take care of each other at the end.
After Tai Shici and the three of them arrived, they immediately killed them. The three generals were brave, although Zhang Ji and others resisted desperately, but they still suffered heavy losses.
Finally, Dong Zhuo led a large army to come to support, and Tai Shici and the others had already retreated and joined Lu Bu. On the other side, LΓΌ Bu fought with Dong Zhuo's cavalry, and killed five or six thousand people.
After Dong Zhuo's army stopped, he counted the soldiers and lost 20,000. Half of them were killed, half fled or surrendered.
"I have 145,000 troops back in Jingzhao County, and there are still a few copper plates left??? On the one hand, Dong Zhuo was angry, and on the other hand, great fear swept over him, despair, deep despair.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦.
The city was sealed, with generals Wei Yan, Gao Shun, and Han Dang guarding it, and the same army of 18,000 people. When Dong Zhuo was passing by, the three of them fought with Lu Bu, Tai Shici and others who were hanging far away.
Swallowed 30,000 of Dong Zhuo's elite soldiers.
β¦β¦
In Dianyang City, there are generals Huang Gai and Zu Mao, who are guarded by the two generals, and the generals converge, and swallow Dong Zhuo's 30,000 elite soldiers.
Mouthful after bite, Dong Zhuo changed from a fat man to a thin man. (To be continued.) )
