In the front camp of the Qiang people, Zhou Shen, the general of Dangkou, led the northern army late, but he saw the corpses of the Qiang people everywhere, as well as the broken camp tent, and the entire front camp looked chaotic.

At this time, seeing Dong Zhuo arriving with a few horsemen from the Chinese army camp, Zhou Shen said a little sourly: "Congratulations to Zhong Ying for his success in the first battle." ”

Dong Zhuo said: "Hold the truth, don't say these words, Beigong Boyu has already fled to the north, and he will pursue it with me to achieve this great achievement together." ”

Zhou Shen heard it and said with great joy: "Really? ”

Dong Zhuo laughed and said, "Naturally, hold the true brother and order the subordinates to prepare one or two, and we will come out as soon as possible." ”

Zhou Shen heard it and said, "Okay, but the general of the chariot is ......."

I have ordered someone to report to the general of the cavalry, but the general of the cavalry belongs to the infantry, and we will lead the cavalry to pursue first.

Zhou Shen heard it and laughed: "Okay." ”

……

Dong Zhuo and Zhou Shen joined forces, with about 40,000 troops, with Zhang Xiu and Xu Rong as the vanguard, commanding Zhang Xiu's 4,000 men and horses (which were damaged in three months) and Xu Rong's 4,000 men and horses, a total of 8,000 fine cavalry as the front. Dong Zhuo and Zhou Shen led the generals to the Chinese army. After Zhang Wen knew that Dong Zhuo and Zhou Shen were preparing to pursue, he also gathered 3,000 cavalry and handed them over to Sun Jian's command, and attacked with Dong Zhuo and Zhou Shen.

In the past three months, Dong Zhuo has also seen Sun Jian's brave martial arts, when he is not under Zhang Xiu and Hua Xiong, the four generals under his command are also extraordinary, and the martial arts alone are probably not much better than the rest of his own generals. Dong Zhuo attached great importance to Sun Jian, and ordered Li Ru to prepare a small amount of grain and grass for Sun Jian's troops to lead the army to escort in the back, and because there was not much grain and grass escorted, if there was a war ahead, Sun Jian could also divide his troops to help, so that Sun Jian would definitely have credit after the war, which shows Dong Zhuo's importance to Sun Jian.

The army marched all the way and soon entered Beidi County, and the sporadic Qiang soldiers encountered on the way were quickly solved by Zhang Xiu's front army, and Dong Zhuo's army behind them did not take action at all.

Dong Zhuo and Zhou Shen were very happy, but only Li Ru was frowning from time to time thinking about something.

And Zhang Xiu, who was in the former army, also felt a little uneasy, but the reason was Beidi County. He remembered that in the original history, Zhang Xiu was called the Gun King of the Northland, so the fame must be in the Northland County, so it is estimated that there must be a big war here, if not, it is impossible to achieve the name of Zhang Xiu's Gun King of the North. However, Zhang Xiu vaguely remembered that there were Ma Teng, Han Sui, and the rebellion of the kingdom behind, and the Han court had to conduct one more battle of Pingqiang, so it was calculated that there were three battles of Pingqiang between the Yellow Turban Rebellion and Dong Zhuo's entry into Luoyang, and now Zhang Xiu participated in the second time, but Zhang Xiu was not sure whether it was the second or third achievement of Zhang Xiu's reputation as the gun king in the north in the original history.

……

A few hours ago, Beigong Boyu, Li Wenhou, Bian Zhang, and Han Sui, who had fled to Yuzhong, got together, but the four of them rode a high-class horse, leaving the army and moving forward, and they could return to Jincheng from Meiyang in less than a day. Beigong Boyu's mood is a little low, this is also normal, whoever loses nearly 100,000 troops will not be in a good mood.

At this time, the sergeant outside came to report: "Commander, Dong Zhuo and Zhou Shen led the army to chase after them, and it has been a day since they came out of Meiyang." ”

After Beigong Boyu waved off the soldiers, he sighed and said, "Alas, Dong Zhuo is chasing after him, what should I do." ”

Han Sui on the side heard it and said with a smile: "Don't worry, handsome, now that we are in Xiliang, we have taken advantage of the land." And Xiliang is our place, as long as the marshal raises his arms, 100,000 Qiang people can immediately get on the horse to fight, so marshal and have 100,000 troops. Just now I came to report that Dong Zhuo led the army out, they must have passed through Beidi County and entered Jincheng, and they were in Xiliang for a long time, familiar with the location, and there was a place in Beidi County...... We can...... So ...... so."

After listening to Han Sui's words, the three of Beigong Boyu laughed at the same time, Beigong Boyu slapped the long case fiercely, and said hatefully: "Beidi County is the place where Dong Zhuo was buried." ”

Han Sui said with a smile: "Dashuai, without further ado, please recruit the Qiang people immediately, and lead some of the soldiers who were originally left behind in Xiliang to make arrangements, and Dashuai will come to meet after gathering the army." ”

Beigong Boyu laughed and said, "Okay, Brother Li Xian will go and help Brother Han Xian, and Brother Bian Xian will stay to help me." ”

Several people should be at the same time, but when Han Sui heard such an order, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes, obviously sensing Beigong Boyu's distrust of him.

……

Dong Zhuo's army has been out for two days, and he has been rushing non-stop for two days, but at this time, Dong Zhuo summoned a guide and asked, "How long will it take to arrive in Jincheng?" ”

The guide said: "Go back to your lordship, with the progress of the army, it only takes one day to get out of Beidi County, and another day to Jincheng." ”

Dong Zhuo heard it and said: "In this case, why don't our army rush overnight, go out of Beidi County and rest again, and then attack Jincheng in one go." ”

Li Ru heard it and said: "Father-in-law, no, our army is tired after marching overnight like this." And this is Xiliang, there are many Qiang people, and it is difficult to guarantee that they will not be ambushed by the Qiang people. ”

Dong Zhuo laughed when he heard this: "The Qiang army has been defeated, how can I ambush it, our army has been pursued, and we should be a noble soldier, so that we can achieve a big victory. ”

Li Ru could only be silent when he heard this, but Zhou Shen smiled when he heard it: "Zhong Ying really knows the art of war, and when the Qiang people meet us, they can be said to have killed themselves." waited to calm down the chaos, but I wanted to congratulate Zhong Ying on becoming an official. ”

Dong Zhuo smiled when he heard it: "Brother Zhen, happy and happy." ”

The two glanced at each other and laughed, but they didn't notice Li Ru's worries on the side.

Zhang Xiu of the former army received the news that Dong Zhuo was going to march overnight, but he suddenly had a sudden attack in his heart, but he still took the order, and later Li Ru ordered a personal soldier to carefully explain Zhang Xiu and Xu Rong, and be careful when marching, which made Zhang Xiu's doubts deeper. And Xu Rong is a steady person, the two of them glanced at each other, but they ordered to go down to scout and inquire strictly, and report any news immediately.

However, Zhang Xiu and Xu Rong didn't find any news after a night of probing, as if Li Ru's guess and Zhang Xiu's doubts were superfluous, even Xu Rong relaxed his vigilance, only Zhang Xiu was still secretly on guard. He regretted it a little, he didn't bring Jia Xu here at that time, if Jia Xu was here, I'm afraid he could guess one or two, it's better than being at a loss now.

And Li Ru of the Chinese army received the news that the former army Zhang Xiu and Xu Ronglai did not move overnight, but his brows wrinkled even deeper, but he felt as if he had entered the palm of an invisible hand of the enemy, once the enemy's five fingers were closed, I am afraid that he would not be able to escape.
