Chapter 32: Winning the Throne

Zhao Cen was taken aback when he heard the return of the defeated soldiers, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to pull up the suspension bridge of the East City Gate, and was writing an official document to Luoyang to report the emergency, but he saw the smoke and dust outside the city, covering the sky and the sun.

When he was in a hurry, he saw Li Su leading a group of remnants of the army to rush to the front of the pass, and shouted, "General Zhao, please open the city gate, and the princes' 150,000 troops will arrive immediately."

Hearing that the remnants of the soldiers said that there were 150,000 enemy troops, Zhao Cen was even more busy in his heart, hurriedly put down the drawbridge, and shouted: "Please General Li quickly enter the city and resist the enemy together." ”

The drawbridge had just been lowered, but he saw a group of cavalry rushing in the smoke and dust, Zhao Cen saw Li Su crossing the drawbridge, and was about to order the drawbridge to be pulled up and close the city gate, but he heard that the city gate was in chaos, and a soldier ran up to the city.

"Report ...... Report to the general, Li Su turned against the water, and now the city gate has been captured by the enemy, and a large number of enemy troops are rolling in.

When Zhao Cen heard this, he was in a cold sweat, and saw that the smoke and dust outside the city were getting bigger and bigger, and the colorful flags were looming in the smoke and dust.

"Retreat, retreat to Luoyang, and report the battle situation here to the Taishi."

Zhao Cen was busy, galloped all the way down the city, rode on his war horse and shouted, "All the soldiers will withdraw from the Tiger Prison Pass with me and retreat to Luoyang." ”

There are 150,000 enemy troops, and they have already controlled the city gate, no matter how bold Zhao Cen is, he does not dare to fight, and the three of them are not Hua Xiong's opponents, even Hua Xiong has been beheaded, and he will wait for when he does not run.

The Xiliang army that fought against the Yellow Turban and the Bianzhang finally returned, and Liu Wei ran with the branches of the horses for a while, and then let the soldiers run around with the flags, but they were only met with some sporadic resistance and successfully captured the Tiger Pass.

……

Tiger Prison Pass, Captain's Mansion.

Looking at the exquisite wine and food, although it was already cold, it still glowed with an attractive luster, Liu Wei said to Wang Yue beside him.

"Master, we accidentally made a windfall."

Wang Yue, as a ranger, is a loner, and does not have much concept of money and food, but 3,000 soldiers and horses can win the Tiger Prison Pass, and Wang Yue has already admired the strategy of the lord.

"Lord, there are so many things, I'm afraid I can't move them."

The corners of Liu Wei's mouth raised a smile, "How tiring it is to move, things are dead, people are alive, we can trade with the princes, and use these in exchange for what we urgently need, war is not only politics, but also a business." ”

Wang Yue looked at Li Su next to him and said to Liu Wei: "How to deal with this person?" ”

Looking at Li Su, who looked a little nervous, Liu Wei made a gesture to the two, "Everyone sit down and talk carefully, after fighting for a long time, are you not hungry?" I'm already with my chest pressed against my back. ”

The relaxed words made Li Su smile as well.

Li Su is the cavalry captain of the Xiliang Army, and he said that he was a great merit to oppose Lu Bu, but he did not get the opportunity to be promoted, and now Li Wei, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji, and Fan Chou are already leading captains, and Niu Fu is even more of a lieutenant, he is still a small captain, and Li Su, who is very obsessed with officials, is loyal to Dong Zhuo, which is hell.

Later, when Dong was punished, Li Su did not hesitate to stand on the side of Wang Yun and Lu Bu, but unfortunately he met Lu Bu, a man who didn't pay attention to the morality of the rivers and lakes at all, and was beheaded after a defeat.

The three of them ate some wine and food casually, and Liu Wei analyzed Dong Zhuo's character to Li Su, raised his glass and said with a smile: "When the general goes back to Luoyang, he must be beheaded, why don't you throw it elsewhere?" ”

Li Su agreed with what Liu Wei said, hugged his fists and said: "I want to go to Xiliang Ma Teng, I don't know if General He can let him go?" ”

Liu Wei now only said that he was Bao Xin's subordinate, Li Su was naturally unwilling to take refuge in Bao Xin, and Liu Wei had no intention of soliciting this capricious person.

However, Li Su has meritorious service, if he is killed now, who will dare to defect to him in the future? Liu Wei would not do something big because of a small loss, so Liu Wei made up his mind to let Li Su go.

"Ma Shou became a descendant of General Fubo, stationed in Xiliang, and was the hero of the world, of course it was the best choice for General Li to go there, but ......"

Li Su was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "But what?" ”

Liu Wen's tone became heavy, "Xiliang is a mountain that does not tolerate two tigers, although Ma Shoucheng and Han Wenyue are sworn brothers, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not turn against each other, the general is here, but you must be careful." ”

Hearing the concern in Liu Wei's words, Li Su was greatly moved, and frequently raised his glass to thank him.

"Then Feng will borrow this glass of wine and wish the general a smooth journey here." A smile like a spring breeze appeared on the corner of Liu Bian's mouth.

……

"General, there are 50,000 stones of grain and grass of various colors in the Tiger Prison Pass, a number of forage, and nearly 10,000 pieces of cloth and silk of various colors, and there are not many knives and guns in stock, and there is also little armor, about 20 million yuan."

Liu Bianji clicked on the harvest of this battle, and felt very satisfied in his heart, he started from scratch, but he was a poor man, and now he has income in the account, which is excellent.

"How many war horses are there?"

Liu Wei is still concerned about war horses, weapons are useless, just now these weapons, except for bows and arrows, are garbage in their own eyes.

And the war horse is an absolute strategic resource, and there is nowhere to buy it if there is money, whether it is the Jurchens' tactics or the Mongols' riding and archery, Liu Wei knows it well, but you must have a horse first, and you can only train an army with a good war horse.

"The horses, plus the captured, are five hundred."

Liu Wei calculated, 800 cavalry plus 500, then there would be 1,300 cavalry, which is not a small number, and his heart suddenly became hot.

With these generals in his hands, Liu Wei plans to learn from Liu Da'er, whether he borrows or not, but he will preach morality, and these materials will be given priority to Bao Xin, after all, among the princes of the Eighteen Roads, those who are really close to the Han family are Bao Xin and Liu Dai.

After Liu Wei counted the materials, he began to rectify the surrender of the army, and those who were willing to surrender were directly accommodated, and those who were unwilling to send some travel expenses to let them leave, and strictly enforced military discipline, and those who created chaos will be killed!

Preferential treatment of prisoners, starting from me, now people are also strategic resources, for their compatriots, Liu Wei's strategy is to only punish the evil, and not kill those who surrender.

Think about the chaos after the Three Kingdoms, isn't it that the Han nation lost its elite after the cannibalism, so that the land of China experienced a catastrophe, if it wasn't for the birth of the martial mourning king, I am afraid that the Han nation will no longer exist.

The Three Kingdoms era was the beginning of the dark years of the Han nation, and now the weak Hu people of all kinds will almost wipe out the Han people in a hundred years!

"Two-legged sheep!" No man who likes history sees these three words and doesn't want to pull out his sword and slaughter those Hu people!

"Kill Hu Ling!" How many Chinese men were so excited that they burst into tears!

Liu Wei wrote a letter to Bao Xin and Yuan Shu, and after writing it, he stretched his waist and was about to rest for a while, when he heard a few cannon shots outside the gate.

"Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian has arrived." Liu Wei smiled and walked towards the city tower with Wang Yue.
