Chapter 023: Tiger Prison Pass

"Lord, is the so-called outside must first be inside, Yuan Shao Cao Cao's edict, is to gather the following martial arts, lead 30,000 troops, after the general Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu, also command 20,000 troops, among the Kwantung princes, the Yuan family can be regarded as the biggest hidden danger, his uncle Yuan Kui, now the Taifu, the princess went to suppress the thief, afraid that it colluded with Yuan Shao and others, the inside should be combined with the outside, which is not good for us, the lord can kill the sacrificial flag before our army goes out, and it can also deter the ministers who have different intentions in the court......"

A hint of murderous intent flashed in Li Ru's eyes, and he suggested to Dong Zhuo.

"If Wen Ru doesn't remind, Ben almost forgot, Ben Xiang thinks that he treats him Yuan family well, Yuan Shao Ben Xiang let him go, and gave him the position of Bohai Taishou, then Yuan Shu Ben Xiang shows him as a rear general, but the Yuan family is a wolf ambition, not killing is not enough to level the hatred in Ben Xiang's heart, send someone to arrest Yuan Kui's family, Ben Xiang wants to kill the sacrificial flag before going out on the expedition, and destroy his family!"

An unquenchable anger flashed in Dong Zhuo's eyes, the most intolerable thing for a person in a high position was betrayal, at least in Dong Zhuo's eyes, the Yuan family betrayed him.

"Father-in-law, the last general will ask for orders to arrest the Yuan family."

Lu Bu actually wants to act as a pioneer, but Hua Xiong and Li Ge are one step faster, and now they finally have the opportunity to perform in front of Dong Zhuo, and Lu Bu will not miss it again.

"Then I'll leave it to Fengxian."

Dong Zhuo pondered for a while, nodded and agreed, with Lu Bu making a move, it would be difficult for the Yuan family to get away with one person.

"The military situation is urgent, Hua Xiong is the main general, leading 20,000 people from the headquarters to set off immediately, Li Ge can be the deputy general, remember, you must not let the Kwantung coalition army cross the Tiger Pass, otherwise Luoyang will be in danger."

Dong Zhuo was cautious and authentic.

"No!"

Li Ge and Hua Xiong immediately took the order and set off, leading an army of 20,000 to rush to the Tiger Prison Pass overnight.

On the second day, the world was shaken, Dong Zhuo raised 200,000 troops, divided the troops into three routes, and ordered Li Dao and Guo Yan to lead 30,000 troops all the way to Bishui Pass to support Li Su.

Along the way, Hua Xiong and Li Ge were ordered to act as vanguards, and rushed to the Tiger Prison Pass overnight with 20,000 troops to prevent a surprise attack by the coalition forces of the Kwantung princes.

Dong Zhuo led 150,000 soldiers and horses, and set out with the military advisor Li Ru and Zhonglang generals Lu Bu, Fan Chou, Zhang Ji, etc., preparing to fight to the death with the Kwantung princes in front of the Tiger Prison Pass, and set the world down.

Mention the Tiger Prison Pass, people who are familiar with the Three Kingdoms can be said to be like thunder, famous, the Tiger Prison Pass is located in the northwest of Xingyang more than 30 miles of Bishui Town, because King Zhou Mu is here to store tigers, so it is called the Tiger Prison Pass.

Here, Qinzhi Pass, Hanzhi County, and all dynasties have taken the Tiger Pass as an important pass and defended it.

Tiger Prison Pass is connected with Songyue in the south, bordering the Yellow River in the north, the mountains are staggered, it is a natural danger, there is a big husband when the pass, the trend of ten thousand people is not open, it is the place where the soldiers of all dynasties must fight.

Tiger Prison Pass is so famous, mainly because there was a big drama of the Three Heroes vs. Lu Bu here, but people who are familiar with the Three Kingdoms know that this is actually a fiction made up by Luo Guanzhong, although Lu Bu once guarded the Tiger Pass, but Liu Bei has never participated in any battles against Dong, so naturally there is no talk of the Three Heroes vs. Lu Bu.

But everyone doesn't seem to agree because this is a fictional history, but is keen to chase this legend, relish it, and spread it for thousands of years.

Although the Battle of the Three Heroes against Lu Bu is fictional, the Tiger Prison Xiongguan is not blown out, and a fierce battle has been staged here, that is, the battle of Chenggao between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu.

Liu Bang and Xiang Yu fought in Xingyang to become the mouth of Gao, the big battle was seventy, the small war was forty, at first Liu Bang and Xiang Yu formed a confrontation in Xingyang, Liu Bang was in a weak position, trapped in Xingyang City, and the grain road was cut off by Xiang Yu's main force.

Liu Bang had no choice but to let the general Ji Xin pretend to surrender by himself, while he fled into Chenggao City, and crossed the river from Chenggao to the north to cultivate martial arts.

After seizing Han Xin's military power, he crossed the river to seize Chenggao, and provoked Xiang Yu's general Cao to go out of the city through the method of agitation, so as to capture Chenggao City, and since then has occupied Chenggao City and Xiang Yu.

Cheng Gao's gains and losses became a turning point in the Chu-Han War, and Liu Bang finally forced Xiang Yu Wujiang to commit suicide.

Now the Kwantung princes are fighting for Dong, and the soldiers are sour dates, how similar is the history, if Dong Zhuo wins this battle, the world is at his fingertips, there is no resistance in the world, if he loses, he will lose the world, and the original good advantage will be lost!

"The whole army obeyed the order and set up camp in place."

Li Ge and Hua Xiong led the army to set off overnight, arrived at the Tiger Prison Pass in the afternoon of the next day, and set up Dazhai behind the pass, plus the original 5,000 defenders, a total of 25,000 soldiers and horses, even if the Kwantung princes hundreds of thousands of male troops, they did not want to break through the pass in a short time.

"General Hua, I suggest that the army be divided into three groups and take turns to defend the Tiger Pass, so that the soldiers can not only ensure that the soldiers have sufficient physical strength, but also have someone to defend them around the clock......"

Although Li Ge doesn't know much about military affairs, he has never eaten pork, and he has never seen a pig run.

"General Lee has a point."

Hua Xiong pondered for a moment, thought about it seriously, and agreed with Li Ge's proposal.

"The generals listened to the order, Xiao Jiang, Xun Xiang, Wei Zhu, and Er led the men and horses of the headquarters to take turns to defend the Tiger Prison Pass, in case the Kwantung princes and coalition forces raided!"

The 20,000 vanguard troops were all Huaxiong's original troops, and they were easy to command.

"Yes!"

The three generals under Hua Xiong's command received the order and went their own way.

"Brother Li, you go to rest first, and let me keep vigil tonight."

In formal settings, even if the relationship is good, it is generally called his position, but in private it does not matter.

"It's fine."

Li Ge agreed, and he couldn't ask for it if he had time to cultivate.

With the other side in hand, Li Ge's strength is improving all the time, and there will be a big battle next, and every point of strength increases, there will be more security.

Among the coalition forces of the Kwantung princes, there are many powerful generals, not to mention Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, that is well known.

In addition, Beiping Taishou Gongsun Zhan, Changsha Taishou Sun Jian, Cao Cao's Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Yu Ban, Le Jin, etc. are all first-class generals.

After all, romance is just romance, in order to highlight Guan Erye's bravery, others will inevitably become foils, but it doesn't mean that others are really that bad.

Those who have carefully watched the Romance of the Three Kingdoms will know that the strength of the generals is inconsistent and difficult to justify.

For example, in order to highlight Lu Bu's bravery, Luo Guanzhong created a three-British battle against Lu Bu, but later a Zhang Fei could fight with Lu Bu for hundreds of rounds.

For example, in order to highlight Guan Yu, Yan Liangwen Chou was written very powerfully, Cao Jiang was completely straw bales one by one, and then Yan Liangwen Chou was killed by Guan Yu in seconds, and as a result, in the battle of Fancheng, it was the grass mustard Xu Huang who beat the god-like Guan Yu out of temper.

For the sake of prudence, Li Ge had to seize the time to improve his strength, who knows if it will cause a butterfly effect because of his appearance, and then a fierce man suddenly pops out of the Kwantung Coalition Army?
