However, Lan Xin didn't see that Lu Bu's hands had already been pierced by his fingertips and blood flowed out, and the two of them stayed quietly in the dark room......

If it weren't for Lan Xin to comfort Lu Bu, he must have already had a nervous breakdown. In the past few days, Lu Bu has been practicing martial arts non-stop, starting from Linchen every day until late at night, the sweat is dry, and it doesn't take long for it to flow down again, it seems that only in this way can Lu Bu temporarily forget all his troubles, and Lan Xin has always been by his side and has never left.

Peaceful days always pass quickly, and the distress letter from Bishui Pass reached the imperial court and fell into Dong Zhuo's hands. That Emperor Han Xian was actually just a puppet, and before he could read the content of the distress letter clearly, Dong Zhuo had already taken it, took his subordinates, and went back to the house directly, leaving a very embarrassed Emperor Han Xian in the hall, as well as those ministers who were like walking corpses.

In fact, the happiest person in this is Emperor Han Xian, because of unavoidable reasons, he has succumbed to Dong Zhuo's obscenity for a long time, and he has long hated him in his heart, he didn't want to be this puppet emperor, and he was forced to come to power by Dong Zhuo, and he had long wished that he would die sooner!

To be able to sit on the throne of the emperor is not a fool, these allies who are pretending to support the Han family are actually the same kind of people as Dong Zhuo, but for Emperor Xian, they are all raccoon dogs, dog eats dog, and fighting to defeat both is the best outcome, but because of their own status, they don't even dare to say a word.

Dong Zhuo, who returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, was so angry that he dropped five wine glasses in a row, so frightened that the subordinates who cleaned up the residue trembled, and they didn't even dare to breathe. "What a useless waste, a rabble, scared him so much that he didn't even dare to go out of the city gates?" Dong Zhuo smashed the sixth wine glass and scolded angrily.

The four major generals stood on both sides, Lu Bu stood behind him, and Li Ru, as his son-in-law and strategist, was naturally on the left and right. "According to the future report of the Bishui Guan, the pioneer is Sun Jian, this person has extraordinary martial arts, and there are several fierce generals under him, and it is definitely not something he can resist. Now he is using a retreat strategy, which is the best plan! Li Ru saw that Dong Zhuo was a little calmer, so he analyzed.

At this time, the four major generals said that they would go into battle to kill the enemy and annihilate the rebels in one fell swoop. But Dong Zhuo waved his hand and asked Li Ru to continue. For this strategist and relative, he believes in Li Ru very much, from pacifying the civil strife in Chang'an, to poisoning Liu Wei and supporting Emperor Xian, it was this Li Ru's idea, and it was Li Ru who helped him achieve today's status step by step.

Li Ru looked at Hua Xiong and the other four generals, shook his head slightly, turned to look at Lu Bu again, and then said: "Bishui Pass is the first stop of our battle with it, and we must not lose, otherwise it will affect our next deployment and hit the morale of the army, so I think it is most appropriate for Lu Bu to guard Bishui Pass!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Dong Zhuo remembered the scene where Lu Bu and Hua Xiong fought a few days ago, in fact, he noticed it early on, and just hid in the dark to observe the competition between the two. After Li Ru said this, he gradually showed joy on the ground, and said with a smile: "Well, there is Feng Xian, don't worry about quelling the rebellion!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Lu Bu felt extremely helpless in his heart, now he was worried about Diao Chan's comfort, and he didn't have the heart to fight at all, not to mention that he had already known the outcome of this war, and when he was about to shirk it, Hua Xiong suddenly stood in the center of the hall and said to Dong Zhuo: "Xiangye, I think it is most appropriate for me to go, these shrimp soldiers and crab generals, I am enough to deal with it alone, I have followed you for so many years, you should know me!" ”

Dong Zhuo couldn't help but hesitate when he heard him say this. The world is so big, who dares to say that they are invincible in the world? If Lu Bu wins, it's okay, everyone is happy; If there is any mistake, there will be one less master to protect yourself by your side. Besides, Lu Bu didn't have any experience in leading troops to fight......

Seeing Dong Zhuo's hesitation, Li Ru was anxious, and hurriedly said: "Xiangye......" Before he finished speaking, Dong Zhuo suddenly waved his hand and said, "Needless to say, kill chickens with a knife, let's let Huaxiong go!" ”

At first glance, a cold light flashed in Hua Xiong's eyes, knowing that in Dong Zhuo's heart, he was still inferior to Lu Bu. When he thought of this, he aroused Hua Xiong's determination to go into battle to kill the enemy, and after a while, Hua Xiong knelt on one knee and said: "Xiangye, please rest assured, I will definitely cut the enemy generals under the horse and annihilate the rebels in one fell swoop. ”

Listening to Hua Xiong's bold words, Dong Zhuo nodded and said with satisfaction: "Well, I now appoint you as the captain of Xiaoqi, Li Su, Hu Zhen, and Zhao Cen as generals, leading 50,000 elite soldiers and quickly rushing to Bishui Pass!" When you return victoriously, this prime minister will promote you well, ensure your glory and wealth, and enjoy it endlessly! With that, Hua Xiong smiled with a smile on his face, deliberately glanced at Lu Bu defiantly, turned around and left.

Lu Bu didn't pay attention to him at all, he was very disdainful in his heart, this Hua Xiong was really a reckless man, he dared to fight casually without even figuring out the details of the enemy, he didn't have any brains at all, but the other three were still expressionless, but they were actually cunning to the extreme, and it was clear that Hua Xiong would go to the front line to explore the military situation first.

However, after the three of them left, Li Ru walked in front of Dong Zhuo and said worriedly: "Xiangye, I don't doubt General Hua's strength, it's just that Sun Jian is quite prestigious...... Before he finished speaking, Dong Zhuo stood up suddenly, snorted coldly, and said a little angrily: "Don't say it, I believe in Hua Xiong, with his ability, he is enough to sweep away those rabble!" With that, Dong Zhuo flicked his sleeves and left the hall.

Let's say that there is a Jibei minister Bao Xin among the princes of the Eighteenth Road, seeing that Sun Jian was the vanguard and led the troops to attack Bishui Pass, he already had an idea in his heart, and after discussing with the strategists and generals around him, he decided to send troops to attack Bishui Pass first, in case Sun Jian won the first credit. So, he asked his younger brother to be loyal and led 3,000 soldiers and horses to take a small road to attack Bishui Pass.

However, he never expected that Hua Xiong was in a hurry to make meritorious contributions, and in order to prove that he was stronger than Lu Bu, so he let his soldiers and horses travel day and night, and rushed to Bishui Pass as soon as possible, so tired that the soldiers complained bitterly, and on the way, someone proposed to take a break, but was beheaded by Hua Xiong in public, standing in front of the army, pointing the knife in his hand to the corpse on the ground, and said sharply: "Cheer me up, if anyone dares to disturb the morale of the army again, this is his fate!" As soon as these words came out, no one dared to say more than half a word.

However, Hua Xiong's trick of killing chickens to show monkeys is indeed very useful, and in a short period of time, he arrived at Bishui Pass. And the guard general was also very surprised to see Hua Xiong arrive so soon, but he was more relieved in his heart, since Hua Xiong came, then he didn't have to worry all day long!

In fact, after such a long journey, Hua Xiong was really tired, but he was in a hurry to make meritorious contributions, so he didn't dare to rest. Now that we have arrived at our destination, and we are about to take a rest, a soldier suddenly comes to report, "Lord Captain, Bao Zhong has brought people to challenge!" As soon as the words fell, Hua Xiong was puzzled, didn't he say before that Sun Jian led people to attack the city, how did he change people?
