Xiangwu, the inner courtyard of the county government.

Jia Xu hurried straight into the side hall and bowed his hand to Luo Zheng: "I've seen the general." ”

Luo Zheng waved his hand and said, "Wen He doesn't need to be polite, but Lu Bu has a reply?" ”

Jia Xu replied: "Exactly, but Lu Bu refused to join forces with the general. ”

Luo Zheng looked surprised and said, "How come, isn't Lu Bu interested in Guanzhong?" ”

Jia Xu said: "It's not that Lu Bu is not interested in Guanzhong, Lu Bu was already moved, who expected that Zhang Liao, the general of Lu Bu's account, would see through our army's plan, and Lu Bu broke off his delusions and didn't dare to plot against Guanzhong again." ”

Luo Zheng was even more surprised, and said solemnly: "Wen is gentle and careful." ”

Jia Xu said: "Guanzhong is a strategic buffer place for Si Li, once Dong Zhuo can't stop the momentum of King Qin in Guandong, then Guanzhong is the only way to retreat." Zhang Liao took a fancy to this point and reminded Lu Bu to break our army's plan. ”

Luo Zheng frowned, and said: "I don't want Zhang Liao to have such an overall view, such a good general actually followed Lu Bu's house." It's a pity that Lu Bu has no ambition, but he has no talent to match his ambition, even if Zhang Liao is a real piece of gold, he doesn't have much chance to shine under Lu Bu, he can only be dusted, if it can be used by this general. ”

Jia Xu thought deeply and said: "What the general said is very true, Lu Bu is really not a master, and he does not need to be a good general, but he only favors Wei Xu, Cheng Lian, Hou Cheng and other people who are flattering to him, even if he gains the most power for a while, it is difficult to last long." ”

Luo Zheng nodded, frowned again, and said, "Since Lu Bu doesn't join forces with General Ben, it will be troublesome." ”

Jia Xu said in a condensed voice: "There is no other way at the moment, but to pacify Di Dao before Duan Xuan breaks through Longxian." and then fight to the death with Duan Xuan, so that there is a chance. Otherwise, if Duan Xuan is allowed to break through Longxian. It's hard to figure it out again. ”

Luo Zheng said 'um' and said, "Li Meng and Yan Xing, do you have any news?" ”

Jia Xu said: "Longxi Eleven is quietly watching. In addition to Di Dao, the remaining ten counties have been owned by our army, Li Meng, Yan Xing two generals are leading the army to Xiangwu to assemble, at most tomorrow will arrive, only General Gao Shun to capture Di Dao, can enter Longxian. ”

Luo Zheng got up and paced a few steps and asked, "What about Di Dao, is there any news coming back?" ”

Jia Xufang was about to speak, but he heard hurried footsteps outside the door. A small school rushed in.

"Lord, Di Dao is urgent!"

Xiao Xiao ran to the bottom of the hall and said loudly.

Luo Zheng's eyes froze, and he said in a deep voice: "Speak." ”

The junior colonel said excitedly: "General Gao Shun sent a quick report to Ma Lai, Di Dao has gone down, and now he has led the army south." ”

"Is that true?"

When Luo Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but be happy.

If Di Dao goes down, then Longxi can be determined, and he can wave the army to the east. Approaching Longxian.

Duan Xuan has been storming Longxian for ten days, and he doesn't know how long Ma Teng can hold on. At the moment, for Luo Zheng, what is most lacking is time, if he doesn't kill Longxian before Duan Xuan breaks through Longxian. That's a big problem.

At that time, Duan Xuan has a strong city in Longxian County to defend, and it will not be so easy to drive it out of Liangzhou.

Gao Shun will break Di Dao if he breaks it quickly. The biggest piece of good news indeed.

Luo Zheng struck hard and said: "Okay, Gao Shun has indeed lived up to General Ben's high expectations. But. Although Pound broke through and lost, Di Dao still had thousands of soldiers and horses. How did Gao Shun attack Di Dao, and where is Pang De, has he ever been captured? ”

The little colonel hurriedly recounted the experience, and said: "Pound has committed suicide." ”

Luo Zheng sighed and said with regret: "It's a pity that a tiger general can't be used by this general." ”

Jia Xu also looked pity, and said again and again: "What a brave general who is loyal and righteous, if it can be used by the general, it will not be defeated and lost, and he will draw his sword and kill himself in desperation, but it's a pity, it's a pity!" ”

Luo Zheng regretted it a few times, then perked up again, and asked again: "How many soldiers and horses did Gao Shun leave to defend the city?" ”

The junior colonel replied: "General Gao Shun left two thousand soldiers and horses to guard Di Dao. ”

"Two thousand soldiers and horses are enough."

Luo Zheng waved his hand and said loudly: "Quickly send a fast horse to Lintao counties to find Li Meng's army, and tell Li Meng that he does not need to rush to Xiangwu to assemble, but can lead 3,000 cavalry to guard the army's grain route, and there is no loss." ”

"Order."

The little school responded quickly and immediately ran out.

The next day, Yan Xing led 3,000 cavalry to Xiangwu to rest and wait for duty.

Two days later, Gao Shunqin led an army of 8,000 to arrive and stationed in Xiangwu.

Luo Zheng did not wait for the army to rest, so he personally led an army of 20,000 cavalry out of Xiangwu, abandoned all the cities along the way, and drove more than 200 miles in five days, directly killed Longxian, and set up camp five miles west of Longxian.

Duan Xuan was taken aback when he heard the news, and he didn't care about attacking Longxian anymore, so he immediately retreated ten miles and set up camp.

Longxian, Ma Teng's official residence.

"My lord, it's not good."

A small colonel rushed to the bottom of the hall, and said to Ma Teng with a pale face: "Luo Zhengqin led an army of 20,000 to kill, and has set up camp five miles west of Longxian, and Di Dao has been lost?" ”

Ma Teng was taken aback, Huo Di got up, and asked sharply: "Di Dao has been lost, where is Ling Ming?" ”

The colonel wept and said, "General Pound refused to surrender and has committed suicide!" ”

"Ahh

Ma Teng shouted, and his face turned from blue to white, and then from white to blue.

It took a long time before he spewed out a mouthful of old blood and fell backwards.

"Lord!"

The generals under the tent exclaimed in surprise, and hurriedly stepped forward and lifted Ma Teng.

The general also said loudly: "Lang Zhong, pass on Lang Zhong quickly, where the fuck Lang Zhong ran?" ”

After a short time, Lang Zhong arrived in a hurry, and after some manipulation, Ma Teng woke up leisurely.

"Alas!"

Ma Teng sighed leisurely and said gloomily: "Since Ling Ming followed this general, he has been loyal and has never had two hearts, but he doesn't want to die in Di Dao. Luo Zhengpifu, General Ben will never die with you! ”

The latter sentence was bitten out through gritted teeth.

Ma Chao said sonorously: "Father, rest assured, the child must have beheaded Luo Zheng with his own hands to avenge General Pang De!" ”

Ma Teng waved his hand, sat up, and sighed: "I don't want Longxi to be captured by Luo Zheng so quickly." This thief was really premeditated! No wonder Duan Xuan suddenly retreated ten miles, it turned out that Luo Zheng had fought to Longxian. ”

"Father. What now? ”

Ma Chao said in a condensed voice: "Luo Zheng and Duan Xuan add up to no less than 50,000 troops, and Longxian is afraid that they will not be able to hold it." ”

A hideous smile appeared at the corner of Ma Teng's mouth. Said categorically: "No, don't you hear the truth that tigers and wolves compete and fishermen benefit?" If Luo Zheng does not come, within ten days at most, Duan Xuan's army will be able to break through Longxian. However, now that Luo Zhengqin led the army to Longxian, Duan Xuan would definitely not dare to raise troops to attack the city again, and Longxian County could not worry about it for the time being! ”

Ma Chao thought for a while and said, "Father, is it saying that Luo Zheng and Duan Xuan are jealous of each other and will not raise troops to attack the city at the same time?" ”

Ma Teng said: "Not bad. The gains and losses of Longxian County are a matter of great importance, and before the other party is resolved, Luo Zheng Pifu and Duan Xuan will not raise troops to attack the city, in case they are taken advantage of by the other party. In this way, the father can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and let them go dog-eat-dog. ”

"That's right, let Luo Zheng and Duan Xuanpifu go dog-eat-dog!"

All the generals suddenly lifted their spirits and breathed a sigh of relief, it was really a lot of pressure these days.

Since Duan Xuan raised troops to storm Longxian. From Ma Teng to ordinary soldiers, he has never slept well or eaten a good meal. Even sleeping in the city, I didn't have time to go back to the house to sleep on the ondol.

It's good right now, Luo Zheng led the army to kill. He and Duan Xuan had mutual scruples and did not dare to send troops to attack Longxian.

The crowd listened to Ma Teng's analysis. Finally breathed a sigh of relief and was able to get a good night's sleep.

Ma Teng said categorically: "Order the army to hurry up and rest. There must be no mistake in rebuilding the city defenses. ”

"Yes."

The generals agreed with a bang, and Yuguan retreated.

Ten miles east of Longxi, Duan simmering camp, the commander of the Chinese army.

Duan Xuan's face was ugly, and he sighed again and again: "Alas, I don't want Luo Zheng to calm down Longxi so quickly, I really didn't expect it." Now that this guy is on the side, how can General Ben attack Longxian? ”

A general said excitedly: "General, why don't you fight to the death with Luo Zheng." ”

Duan Xuan shook his head and said: "No, if our army fights Luo Zheng in a decisive battle, even if we can defeat Luo Zheng's 20,000 army, don't forget that there is Ma Teng on the side, if Ma Teng takes advantage of the situation to attack, I am afraid that he will not succeed in fighting the tiger, but will be bitten by dogs." ”

"This ......"

The general choked and was speechless for a moment.

At present, the three parties are afraid of each other, and the situation is complicated, which is indeed a problem.

If you have a decisive battle with Luo Zheng, you can't help but beware of Ma Teng's sneak attack.

A general said: "How about joining forces with Lu Bu?" ”

Duan Xuan perked up and muttered, "It's not impossible to give it a try." If Luo Zheng can be repulsed, then the general will only take Hanyang, Longxi, and Wudu, and Jincheng and Wuwei belong to Lu Bu. ”

"Yes."

A follower strategist hurriedly received the order, got up and ran out.

At this moment, another junior colonel rushed in and said, "General, Luo Zheng wants to pass on the book and want to meet the general for a while." ”

"Huh?"

Duan Xuan's eyes froze, and he immediately shouted: "Pass my general order, blow the trumpet and order the troops." ”

"Order!"

All the generals responded with a bang, got up and strode out of the tent.

An hour later, ten miles north of Longxian, on the endless wilderness.

Amid the incessant sound of horns, two cavalry teams galloped from the east and west, rapidly approaching.

It was not until they were two hundred paces apart that they each retracted their horses, and their wings stretched outwards and fanned out.

Luo Zheng urged the horses out of the battle, and the two generals Xu Chu and Yan Xing also rode out of the formation.

Xu Chu is on the left, with angry eyes and murderous eyes.

Yan Xing is on the right, holding a gun and reining in the horse, and the god is majestic.

"Where is Duan Xuan?"

Luo Zheng reined in the sweaty BMW under his crotch and shouted.

"General Ben is here!"

Listening to a loud shout from the cavalry formation on the opposite side, three horses also flew out of the formation.

Luo Zheng fixed his eyes and looked closely, and saw that the middle rider was Duan Xuan, and there were two athletes on the left and right.

"I haven't seen you for many days, but the general's demeanor is still the same!"

Luo Zheng carefully looked at Duan Xuan a few times before he said aloud.

Duan Xuan also said loudly: "I am really honored to have Lao Shengping concerned!" However, Shengping is the old general of Xiliang, and now the general has come to take Longxian, for the sake of the past, he really doesn't want to fight with Shengping in the same room, why don't you go back to Jincheng temporarily? ”

Luo Zheng said with a smile: "I also have the intention of taking Longxian, why don't you return to Chang'an temporarily?" ”

Duan Xuan said: "This is the order of the Emperor of the Great Liang Majesty, how dare I disobey it?" ”

Luo Zheng couldn't help but snort lightly, and even his face words were fierce, and said, "It's Dong Zhuo, right?" The traitor openly usurped the Han Dynasty, and dared to crown the monkey, calling him a lonely widow, which is simply ridiculous. In vain, your Duan clan is also a great Han noble, and the world has received the emperor's favor, not only do you not want to be loyal to the monarch to serve the country, but you are rebellious from the thief, don't you know how ashamed? ”

"You ......"

Duan Xuan said unhappily: "You have also worked for His Majesty, why don't you know loyalty?" ”

Luo Zheng said loudly: "What is loyalty? As a Han minister, this general serves the Han Dynasty, not Dong Zhuo, a traitor who deceived me and treasoned against the country. Today, the princes raised troops to Qin Wang, Dong Zhuo's rebel thief died on the eve of the day, and the general saw that he cherished the day, so he came to persuade you to return to Chang'an as soon as possible, otherwise the general would break through the camp and not take it lightly. ”

"Humph!"

Duan Xuan said with a smile: "Luo Zheng, Hugh is going to be rampant, I want to see how you break through the general's camp." ”

"Then you just wait!"

Luo Zheng sneered, seeing that there was nothing left, he didn't bother to say more, patted the horse's head, and urged the horse to return to the main formation.

The three thousand cavalry quickly turned their horses around and went away.

Luo Zheng only brought three thousand old troops to come, Duan Xuan was not at ease with him at all, and brought the army over, hundreds of steps away, the thousands of archers lined up in front of the formation had already drawn their bowstrings, even if the raid was difficult, it would be difficult to cut Duan Xuan.

Seeing the three thousand iron horsemen go away, Duan Xuan's face was gloomy, and with a wave of his hand, he also led the army back to the camp. (To be continued......) R1292
