On the plain, the Youzhou Army and the stopped Liangzhou Army began to confront each other!

There is no need to mention the Youzhou Army, after Li Yuan just said something, Zhao Yun, as the commander of the army, directly arranged all the situation, and the formation of the 10,000 cuirassiers was adjusted almost in a short period of a dozen breaths, from the formation of escorting the phoenix to the attack formation that could be put into battle at any time.

Seeing the well-prepared appearance of the Youzhou army, the number of Xiliang Tie, who was almost 10,000, stopped the war horses one by one and stopped a kilometer outside the Youzhou army in the shouts of his generals, and then began to look at the extremely indifferent Youzhou army opposite!

"Xiliang Iron Ride? It's almost 10,000, it seems that Dong Zhuo has taken out all his old books......"

Looking at the Xiliang Iron Cavalry Formation opposite, Li Yuan was slightly surprised, and then gave an accurate evaluation.

In the world of "Dynasty Warriors", the elite cavalry that can be named "elite cavalry" and "iron cavalry" will certainly not be the kind of elite cavalry in the main world, but an elite cavalry that has at least cultivated internal qi and reached the level that can attach weapons and armor at least ten times, and has gone through at least ten battles!

Even in places like Youzhou, Bingzhou, and Liangzhou, which are close to the grasslands, and where the chaos and killing are quite serious, resulting in a fairly strong average level of individual force, the number of elite cavalry is also limited. And in a place like Liangzhou, where the Han and Qiang ethnic groups are mixed, even if Dong Zhuo has annexed a lot of Qiang Hu cavalry, there are definitely not many elite Xiliang iron cavalry, for example, the 10,000 or so elite Xiliang iron cavalry that Li Yuan sees now are already all the elites in Dong Zhuo's hands, and it is definitely possible to use the word "sparing no blood" to describe Dong Zhuo's entry into Luoyang this time.

When the two sides confronted each other and watched each other think about how to deal with each other, a middle-aged-looking strong military general directly led a dozen generals and hundreds of horsemen to go out hundreds of meters. After walking to the middle line of the confrontation between the two elite cavalry, he looked at the well-equipped Youzhou army with the banners of "Youzhou" and "Li" very seriously and greedily, and then shouted loudly: "I am Dong Zhongying, the assassin of Liangzhou, and you are under the command of Li Zisheng, the general of Youzhou?!"

"It's down there!"

Listening to Dong Zhuo's words, Li Yuan took Zhao Yun and the guards cavalry out of the ranks, and looked at Dong Zhuo and the generals of the Xiliang Army under his command on the opposite side. The words shouted with a hint of inexplicability: "Lord Dong, we have just escorted the Queen Mother and Your Majesty who were held by traitors and are preparing to return to the palace, what do you mean by waiting?"

Well, Li Yuan saw Dong Zhuo for the first time, but he didn't expect that the other party was not the expected Dong Chubby, but looked quite strong and was also a top martial artist at the level of Qi Chenggang?!

However, after thinking about it carefully, Li Yuan immediately reacted that Dong Zhuona was able to gain a foothold in a place like Liangzhou where Han and Qiang were mixed. And commanded the Xiliang Army, an army with bad military discipline but strong combat effectiveness, no matter how you think about it, it can't be given to any weakling, right? As for the time when it was called Dong Feifei, it is estimated that after Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, he was eroded by the prosperity of Luoyang, the power in the court and the beauties in the palace, and became Dong Feifei, who could be burned for three days when he was killed later.

Now, Dong Zhuo can be said to be the supreme commander of the Liangzhou Thorn History and the Liangzhou Army, belonging to a wolf king who is at the peak of his prime, and he is completely inferior to the rest of the Liangzhou Army in terms of personal strength......

"The Queen Mother?! Your Majesty?!!"

Hear Li Yuan's words. Dong Zhuo couldn't help but look at Li Yuan with some surprise, and a solemn look flashed in his eyes.

For Youzhou Jun and Li Yuan. Dong Zhuo didn't dare to underestimate it, after all, he was not one of those families and eunuchs in Luoyang, and he didn't have too deep a deep understanding of the combat power of foreign races, especially the grassland peoples.

Dong Zhuo, who was dealing with the Qiang and the Northern Xiongnu in Xiliang, felt a chill in his heart when he was able to bring the news that Youzhou was able to directly destroy the Xianbei tribe when he was able to suppress the Huns for a time. And now I saw the situation of the entire 10,000 elite cavalry in Youzhou, and felt the momentum of Li Yuan and the white-robed general beside him. Dong Zhuo didn't have any thoughts to take lightly.

However, hearing that the Queen Mother and His Majesty, who had just succeeded to the throne, were under the protection of the Youzhou Army, Dong Zhuo was unwilling to watch like this, trying to seize this opportunity to take a step further!

“…… I see, General Zisheng. We were also summoned by the general to come to Luoyang, why don't you let me wait together to protect the Queen Mother and Your Majesty now?"

After a number of thoughts flashed in his heart, Dong Zhuo said to Li Yuan very politely.

Well, Dong Zhuo is not a fool, at least now he is not the Taishi who poisoned the Queen Mother and abolished the Emperor, and was blind after the power fell to the government and the opposition.

Now Dong Zhuo made a strong promise because of He Jin, who had already hung the point, and rushed to Luoyang with the ace unit Xiliang Tieqi in his hand, just to show his face in front of He Jin and show his strength. After hearing that the Youzhou Army was protecting the Queen Mother and Her Majesty, Dong Zhuo, who was extremely utilitarian, would certainly not choose to give up.

"No, you don't! The task of escorting the Queen Mother and Her Majesty back to the palace does not need Your Excellency!"

Regarding Dong Zhuo's abacus, Li Yuan rejected it without hesitation.

Are you kidding! Even if Li Yuan didn't understand Dong Zhuo's personality and what he did later, any commander with normal intelligence would not blindly choose a strange army to join his team, right? Not to mention Li Yuan, who knows the plot, has an attitude towards Dong Zhuo's rejection of people thousands of miles away.

However, of course, Li Yuan's attitude is definitely something that Dong Zhuo and other generals of the Xiliang Army are unwilling to accept!

"Phew!"

"What a big deal!"

"How dare you underestimate us!!" ……

Listening to Li Yuan's words, Dong Zhuo, who was originally smiling, couldn't help but have a smile in his eyes, and became as vicious as a hungry wolf hunting for food, and the dozen or so generals of the Xiliang Army around him were even more angry and scolded.

Dong Zhuo also had no intention of suppressing the scolding of the generals of the Xiliang Army around him, and looked at Li Yuan with a very unkind look, as well as the elite cavalry of Youzhou who still remained neat and did not have the slightest sound in this situation, so he waved his hand to stop the generals of the Xiliang Army beside him from scolding, and shouted to Li Yuan with a smiling appearance: "Since this is the case, we will go to the Luoyang military camp to repair on the order of the general!"

Even Li Yuan's words are very bad. But Dong Zhuo looked at the 10,000 elite Youzhou cavalry on the opposite side, and then estimated the situation after his 10,000 Xiliang iron cavalry fought with the other party, and still decided to endure this breath first, and decided to go to Luoyang City first, and then have the opportunity to slowly compete with Li Yuan in the future.

It's a pity that even Dong Zhuo endured this breath. Li Yuan would not choose to compromise, let alone think of letting Dong Zhuo take the Xiliang army to Luoyang to make trouble for his plan!

"Dong Tingshi, you don't know yet, the general has been killed by eunuchs!"

Looking at Dong Zhuo on the other side, Li Yuan deliberately told the other party about the current situation of He Jin, and then said to him in an indifferent tone that completely ignored Dong Zhuo: "Therefore, just in case, Dong Tingshi doesn't have to go to Luoyang now, please lead the army and return to Liangzhou directly!"

"Shaft! How dare you despise me so much!"

Hearing Li Yuan's understatement. But to put it simply, after saying "Boss He hangs up, all the things he promised you will be scrapped, and now you hurry up and lead the team home", Dong Zhuo's face suddenly turned blood-red.

If it is replaced by He Jin, who has already hung the point, or Liu Wei, the young emperor, who comes forward, the current Dong Zhuo may be reluctant, but he will also consider whether to ask the general and His Majesty to give some compensation conditions for grain, grass and property, and then return to his hometown in Liangzhou with the Xiliang army.

But now it is Li Yuan who is saying this. According to Dong Zhuo, one is just relying on military power to despise himself. The status is worse than the miscellaneous general who has been several steps in the history of the feudal territory. If Dong Zhuo can endure it at this time, don't say what other people will think, the Xiliang army is estimated to treat Dong Zhuo, who is reluctant to swallow his anger, as a waste, and then replace it with a leader who is strong and can guarantee their interests.

"Drive the general, I will come to Luoyang on the order of the general, and now we will protect the Queen Mother and Your Majesty together!"

looked at Li Yuan viciously. Dong Zhuo said without hesitation, waving his hand and shouting to the Xiliang Iron Rider behind him.

With Dong Zhuo's words and orders, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, who were originally wandering a kilometer away, did not hesitate to follow their boss's orders, and began to slowly approach the Youzhou Army with a posture that was ready to fight at any time.

But. When the Xiliang Iron Cavalry only advanced less than three hundred meters, Li Yuan signaled the Youzhou Army cavalry under his command, and the Youzhou cavalry on the side of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry did not hesitate to carry the alloy crossbow machine, aiming at the Xiliang Iron Cavalry that was still approaching, it was directly a wave of warning shooting!

"Whoosh--swish――――――"

"Puff puff ――――――" ......

Almost at the same time as seeing the rain of arrows flying out of the Youzhou army, after the Xiliang Iron Cavalry instinctively raised his shield to protect and prepared to attack, he judged that the landing point of the wave of arrow rain was not himself, but a vacant field hundreds of meters in front of him.

When a wave of arrows accompanied by the spiral alloy long sword landed with the sound of breaking through the air, leaving a neat and subtle hole in the ground at a hundred meters in front of the Xiliang Iron Rider and the situation that even the arrow shaft was not exposed, the eyes of the Xiliang Iron Rider who witnessed this scene couldn't help but shrink, and then the reins of the mount couldn't help but loosen.

- This kind of powerful crossbow arrow, even the Xiliang Iron Cavalry doesn't want to try it easily, not to mention that the order that the Xiliang Iron Cavalry has received now is to press forward, not to directly start a war with the Youzhou Army!

"Step into this range! Regarded as a rebel army that shocked the phoenix!! No mercy !!"

With a rain of arrows falling, it was Zhao Yunna's voice that spread throughout the Youzhou Army and the Liangzhou Army.

Zhao Yun, who was now promoted to Zhonglang General because of his military exploits, also didn't understand why his loyal general would choose to be so vigilant against the Liangzhou Army, and even did not hesitate to put on such a big move.

However, at least Zhao Yun understands that in the area under Li Yuan's jurisdiction in Youzhou, everyone can eat well and live like a person, even the grassland nomadic tribes that ravaged Youzhou have been defeated and surrendered, and the local governance is also clean and efficient...... These are enough for Zhao Yun to be loyal to Li Yuan, instead of choosing those big families or others!

Zhao Yun, who had already chosen to be loyal to Li Yuan, even if he didn't understand why his boss was not polite to the Xiliang army, he ignored the reason and carried out Li Yuan's order without hesitation.

Seeing this scene, Li Yuan still looked at Dong Zhuo with an ugly face on the other side with a smile, while Empress Dowager He, Liu Bian, and Liu Xie, who were originally in the phoenix, changed their complexions greatly, and the Empress Dowager He, who looked at this situation, wanted to say something but found that her voice could not penetrate the outside at all, and she felt even more weak.

"What's going on?!!"

Feeling this situation, Empress Dowager He couldn't help but panic in her heart. But after seeing his equally frightened son Liu Wei beside him, he held back his panic and pretended to have a calm expression to comfort his son......

……

Not mentioning the thoughts of Zhao Yun, Empress Dowager He and others, Dong Zhuo's face became extremely hideous and ugly.

"These bastards of the Youzhou Army ......"

Looking at the Youzhou army opposite him who showed his minions without hesitation and was more unreasonable than himself, Dong Zhuo roared in his heart.

According to Dong Zhuo's thoughts, he didn't really start a war with the Youzhou army. Even if he was humiliated by Li Yuan's words, Dong Zhuo, who was pragmatic, couldn't hold back that breath, thinking of a similar method of playing scoundrels, squeezing into the team escorting the Queen Mother and the little emperor, not to mention the evil anger in this way, but also to try to get some cheapness.

However, what Dong Zhuo didn't expect was that the Youzhou army ...... Well, or Li Yuan's actions are so decisive. There was no idea of not daring to do it at all, so he directly gave a dismount and buckled a justifiable big hat!

As a result, Dong Zhuo is now a little waxy!

Give up the action and return to Liangzhou?

According to the previous theory, it is difficult for Dong Zhuo to keep his position as the boss from being shaken, even if he can still sit in the position of commander of the Liangzhou Army, it is certain that his prestige will be greatly damaged.

After all, Liangzhou is not a place to be reasonable. As the commander of the Liangzhou army, Dong Zhuo lost face under the coercion of others, and did not bring benefits to the people below (this is the most important). The generals of the Liangzhou Army below will not understand Dong Zhuo's difficulties, but will have a different kind of thought in their hearts.

Continue to test and bet on whether the Youzhou Army will really dare to attack the Liangzhou Army?

This option, in Dong Zhuo's view, is a bit risky, but the harvest is also quite tempting.

The greatest credit. It is nothing more than the skill of the dragon and the skill of saving the driver, and Dong Zhuo thought that General He Jin had already hung up, and now that the queen mother and the little emperor had no pillars, they immediately had a different kind of thought.

If you squeeze into the team to protect the Queen Mother and the little emperor, there is no need to mention other rewards and temptations such as promotion and wealth. Just the possibility of replacing the power vacuum left by He Jin's death is exciting, and it is not impossible to become the situation of General He Jin's power leaning towards the government and the opposition......

"Keep going! If the other side does not attack us, we are not allowed to return fire!"

Dong Zhuo's heart quickly thought about it for a while, and then he made up his mind. However, after looking at the generals around him, he couldn't help but remind in a low voice: "Let the boys below be smart!" We are here to protect the Queen Mother and Your Majesty, not thieves and rebels!"

"We are the escorted Liangzhou Army!"

"We are here to protect the Queen Mother and Your Majesty!"

"We are not rebels and thieves!" ……

Later, while the Liangzhou army was ready for battle, it shouted and cautiously approached the Youzhou army camp.

It should be said that although there is some desire for profit, Dong Zhuo is still very careful, and the way he chooses is also a non-direct way, betting that in this case, Li Yuan will not and does not dare to take the initiative to provoke a battle with the Liangzhou army.

After all, according to common sense, Li Yuan, the general who drove the captives, did not dare to challenge the rules of the imperial court, and according to Dong Zhuo's judgment, he was unwilling to use his trump card elite Xiliang Iron Cavalry and Li Yuan's Youzhou elite cavalry that was not much inferior to each other, is Li Yuan willing to use his net worth to fight against Dong Zhuo?

It's a pity that Dong Zhuo made a mistake!

Compared with Dong Zhuo, who has limited capital, Li Yuan said that if necessary, it is okay to gather 300,000 cavalry (most of them are ordinary cavalry), even if 10,000 Youzhou elite cavalry is lost, it will only make Li Yuan feel distressed.

Besides, now with the Xiliang Iron Horse without Lu Bu's existence, it really didn't put it in Li Yuan's eyes, compared to the trouble that keeping Dong Zhuo might bring, Li Yuan would definitely not care about any reputation, not to mention that the current situation was a chaotic time, and there was definitely an exceptionally suitable excuse available for Dong Zhuo to do it.

"Shoot the arrows! Destroy the traitors who dare to attack the phoenix!!"

As a result, when Dong Zhuo and everyone nervously watched the approaching Xiliang Iron Cavalry step into the cordon formed by a wave of arrows just now, Li Yuan's unhesitating cold command made everyone in the Xiliang Army change their faces.

"Whoosh--swish――――――"

"Ah!!h

"The Youzhou Army has done it?!!"

"Slaughtered !! Them" ……

When the Youzhou cavalry did not hesitate to fulfill Li Yuan's order, the arrow rain formed by a wave of spiral alloy crossbow arrows was directly like rain hitting the pipa, easily piercing the more than 300 Xiliang iron cavalry who did not form a military formation.

In the face of this situation, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, which was already known for its ferocity, of course would not be obediently convinced, and as a result, under the leadership of a few hot-headed generals, more than a thousand Xiliang Iron Cavalry did not hesitate to form a military formation and launched an attack on the convoy, thus making the titles of "traitor" and "chaotic army" just now a reality.

"Bastard !!"

Seeing this chaotic situation, he didn't expect Li Yuan to do it without hesitation, and his subordinates were really stupid to attack Dong Zhuo, who attacked Feng Yu and launched an attack, almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

However, now this situation also made Dong Zhuo make up his mind, and shouted to the surrounding guards and generals with a hideous face: "The whole army will charge with me!" Let's kill the thief Li Zisheng who held the Queen Mother and Her Majesty hostage!!" (To be continued.) )
