Today, the situation is improving.

Most of the princes have their own thoughts, and cracks are beginning to appear within the coalition forces.

If you continue to hold on, maybe a month, two months...... In short, once the contradictions between the coalition forces deepen to the point of irreconcilability, infighting is bound to occur. This sign is already being revealed, and it may not be long before the harvest is in season.

But Dong Zhuo asked them to withdraw their troops at this time?

Ding Chen couldn't turn a corner, looked at Li Su, and said after a while: "Li Jun, do you say it again?" ”

Li Su sighed and said, "Ziyang, I know you can't figure it out.

However, the prime minister believes that Luoyang is now surrounded by princes and is in danger, so there is no need to hold on. The prime minister has ordered the capital to be moved to Chang'an. At that time, 800 miles of Qinchuan, there is the danger of Hangu in the east, and the land of Bashu in the south, which can be attacked and defended, which is more conducive to development.

Since Guangwu revived the Han Dynasty, it has been exactly 200 years.

The Han dynasty is in good fortune, and it's time to return to Guanzhong...... Therefore, the prime minister has an order, let us evacuate Xingyang. ”

What and what!

Ding Chen's mouth grew up, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

What is the flow of luck?

What sits on Guanzhong...... Are you kidding?

"Ziyang, I know you can't accept it, but the prime minister has made up his mind, let's do what he wants."

"Then we retreat, how to retreat?"

"Retreat to the revolving gate and answer Wen Hou."

Ding Chen heard this, took a deep breath, and then sighed.

Dong Zhuo has always been shrewd, why did he make such a decision?

Based in Luoyang, he can radiate the entire Heluo and deter the princes of Shandong.

But if the capital is moved to Chang'an, it sounds very wonderful, there is the danger of Hangu, there are 800 miles of fertile land in Qinchuan, but it is like being isolated from the Central Plains.

Once they retreat to Guanzhong, then the princes will inevitably lose their deterrence, and when the time comes...... Isn't there chaos in the world?

Ding Chen couldn't understand what was the reason for Dong Zhuo to make such a confused decision. But he also knew that he couldn't stop it! Although he is now gradually valued by Dong Zhuo, in the final analysis, he is an outsider, how can Dong Zhuo listen to his persuasion?

"When will you evacuate?"

"As soon as possible!"

Li Su said in a low voice: "The prime minister has ordered General Xu Rong to lead his troops to garrison Guangcheng Pass, and make a posture of sending troops at any time to attack the princes with Ziyang. I believe that the princes will also get the news soon, and they will inevitably retreat when the time comes, and we can evacuate by the way. ”

Has Xu Rong already started to act?

This also shows that Dong Zhuo has made up his mind.

Ding Chen sighed again and said in a low voice, "Then how to retreat?" ”

"Taking advantage of the truce of the princes now, Ziyang can lead the soldiers and horses of his headquarters and go to the revolving gate pass to station.

I will help Ziyang with 5,000 soldiers and horses, and wait for Wen Hou to join you. As soon as the two of you join forces, the prime minister's wishes, you will temporarily obey the dispatch of Wenhou. After the relocation of the capital to Luoyang is completed, you will quickly evacuate the revolving gate and camp in Mianchi. ”

Sounds like no problem.

Ding Chen thought about it, then nodded in agreement.

Revolving Gate Pass, located in the southwest of Xingyang, is one of the eight passes in Luoyang.

The Eastern Han Dynasty has been the first pass in the east of Luoyang, when Ban Zhao wrote in the "Eastern Expedition Fu": Wanghe Luozhi exchange, as the revolving door of Gao. That's what I'm talking about, that is, the revolving door. After Luoyang passed this pass to the east, there was no more Guancheng that could be defended.

Dong Zhuo handed over such an important gate to Ding Chen to garrison, which also showed that he was very satisfied with Ding Chen's performance in this section.

"What about you, Li Jun?"

Li Su smiled gently: "Ziyang doesn't have to worry about me, after you withdraw, I will retreat to Guangcheng Pass and join General Xu." ”

Ding Chen thought about it, then nodded in response.

"So, I'll evacuate tonight."

"Well, that's for the best."

"Li Jun."

"Huh?"

"Among the princes, I am only worried about the Jiangdong tiger.

In the past few days, Sun Wentai has not appeared, saying that he is guarding Liangdong to rest.

However, he can kill the governor of Huaxiong, and he must not be an idle person. You have to be more careful, and it is best to contact General Xu in advance when evacuating, so that he can try to respond.

Well...... These days, thanks to Li Jun's help, I was able to fight with all my might.

Hehe, I feel, we have a tacit understanding, and thank you Li Jun for tolerating me. On another day, we will see you in Chang'an. ”

Ding Chen's words came from the bottom of his heart.

In the battle of Xingyang, Li Su did help him a lot.

He took on almost all the chores in the city, so that Ding Chen could avoid worries.

Those miscellaneous things are trivial.

Ding Chen felt that without Li Su's cooperation, maybe he would be overwhelmed. From this point of view, he is really grateful to Li Su.

Li Su was stunned for a moment, and looked at Ding Chen's gaze, which softened a lot.

"Ziyang, you should also take care.

Lu Buqi is unruly, lonely, and has a strange and changeable temperament.

Then you need to be patient when you touch him...... Actually, it's not difficult to deal with him, as long as you follow him, it's okay.

See you in Chang'an! ”

Ding Chen glanced at Li Su gratefully, bowed and retreated.

"By the way, the prime minister still has an order, and he will return to Luoyang as soon as possible.

After all, the affairs in the prime minister's mansion are complicated, and Wen He is good at this matter, so he needs to go back early. Besides, next you are under Lu Bu's tent, and Wen He is afraid that it will not be of any use. I'll tell Wenhe about this later. ”

Transfer Jia Xu back?

Ding Chen listened and was a little confused.

Others don't know Jia Xu's skills, how can he not know?

This will transfer Jia Xu away, as if he had his arm broken...... You deserve to be with the light, and now it's okay to embarrass me.

Ding Chen agreed, and hurriedly walked down the city tower.

As soon as he came down, he saw Jia Xu walking slowly along the main street.

"Mr. Wenhe, please stay."

Ding Chen hurriedly shouted and quickly ran forward.

Jia Xu stopped and looked at Ding Chen with a calm face.

"What, are you going to evacuate?"

"How do you know?"

"Ha, not only did I know that you were going to evacuate, but I also guessed that the prime minister was determined to move the capital."

Hiss--

Ding Chen couldn't help but gasp when he heard this.

He looked at Jia Xu's gaze, and it also became a little strange.

Jia Xu didn't care about Ding Chen's gaze, but laughed twice, and then lowered his voice and said, "Actually, I have been waiting for this day to come." ”

"What do you mean?"

Jia Xu clasped his hands and walked forward.

"It's not interesting...... A month ago, I heard a nursery rhyme circulating in Luoyang City: A Han in the east and a Han in the west. When the deer walks into Chang'an, there is no difficulty. Listen, how smooth, how smooth, how rhyming this nursery rhyme is. ”

Ding Chen followed Jia Xu's side, his eyes flashing.

"Mr. means ......"

Jia Xu nodded and said softly: "Before, I told you that the prime minister came early, and that's what I meant.

Nowadays, the decline of the Han family does need someone to support it, but this person can never be the prime minister. Liangzhou is a bitter cold and desolate place in the eyes of the world. The prime minister started with military achievements, but he had no prestige, and he lacked a foundation in the court.

As early as when Empress Dowager He was killed, I felt that there was a black hand in Luoyang City, manipulating behind the scenes.

Cao Cao's sudden assassination must also have something to do with it. It was precisely because he felt that there would be chaos, so he fled from Luoyang.

He doesn't want to take you away, but I'm afraid he can't do it.

After that, King Hongnong was killed, which must have something to do with it...... Now, the black hand has reappeared, which has made the prime minister lose a good situation, and his ability can be seen. Look at it, the prime minister's move to Chang'an, the world will inevitably be in chaos. ”

Ding Chen also saw the clue at this point, so it was not surprising.

It's just that......

Could it be that when the elder brother fled from Luoyang, did he really have a last resort?

His heart moved slightly, and he asked, "In that case, can the gentleman guess who is behind the scenes?" ”

"Who is it?"

Jia Xu glanced at Ding Chen with squinted eyes, and said softly: "It may be one person, or it may be a lot of people, it's still unclear."

However, I believe that when you arrive in Chang'an, you will definitely have contact with him. ”

"Me?"

Ding Chen pointed to his nose.

Jia Xu nodded, but the words suddenly changed.

"I guess, when you came to me, it should be the prime minister who called me back."

"You can guess that?"

Jia Xu smiled incomprehensibly and pointed to his head.

He stopped, lowered his voice and said, "Ziyang, you will be stationed at the revolving gate next, I have something to remind you." ”

"What's the matter?"

"You come here."

Ding Chen leaned over, and Jia Xu whispered in his ear.

When he started, his brow furrowed.

Immediately, his eyebrows stretched out again, revealing a smile of understanding......

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Outside the Tiger Prison Pass, the coalition army camp.

Lü Bu's sudden withdrawal from Tiger Prison caught the coalition forces off guard.

It happened so suddenly that by the time the coalition forces found out, Lü Bu had already withdrawn from the Tiger Prison.

Yuan Shao was not there, and Cao Cao had to find the princes and tell him about it.

"Lu Bu retreated without a fight, it must have happened in Luoyang.

In that case, why don't we take advantage of the victory? More than 100,000 troops, blocked by a Lu Bu outside the Tiger Prison Pass, helpless, spread out, will inevitably be ridiculed by the heroes of the world. I thought that we should pursue it immediately, and we must not let Lu Bu go. ”

The man who spoke was nine feet tall and had a strong physique.

He raised his arms and shouted in the big tent, completely ignoring Cao Cao, who was sitting on the main seat.

This person is Sun Zhan, the Taishou Gongsun of Beiping.

Cao Cao was not angry, he knew that the reason why Yuan Shao dared to teach him the coalition army was because Yuan Shao knew that he could not suppress the princes of all sides.

Gongsun Zhan, the word Bo Jue, Liaoxi Lingzhi people.

He was born in the noble Gongsun clan of Liaodong, but because of his mother's humble status, he had to become a county official.

However, his appearance is handsome, his voice is loud, and he is both civil and military, and he once apprenticed to Lu Zhimen, so he was appreciated by Zhuojun Taishou, and married his daughter to him. Gongsun Chan is good at riding white horses, so he has the reputation of "White Horse General" in Youzhou.

And around him, often follow dozens of good at riding and shooting, and skilled guns and horses, strong martial arts of the servants, and all of them have white horses as mounts, when the battle, the servants are the left and right wings of each other, bravely kill the enemy, no one can stop, so it is called 'white horse righteous servant'.

Now, he worships the Zhonglang general as an official, and is the Taishou of the Right Beiping, regardless of identity and status, he is higher than Cao Cao.

"Bo Jue, I know that you are loyal, but you must know that Dong Zhuo also has capable people around him, how can he not guard against Lu Bu's retreat today?"

"Capable people?"

When Gongsun Chan heard this, he laughed.

"What Meng De said is a capable person, could it be that you can't be 'cheap in the world'?"

This sentence suddenly made Cao Cao's color change.

"What do you mean, Bo Jue?"

"Hahaha, it's just a joke, a joke, Meng De doesn't have to take it seriously."

Gongsun Chan laughed, and then said: "Lu Bu is a tiger in the world, and he has an arrogant temperament.

I expect that if he retreats, he will be unguarded, and if he pursues at this time, he will surely win a great victory. What's more, I have Xuande to help me, just Lu Bu, what can I do? ”

Cao Cao's gaze immediately fell on the three people behind Gongsun Zhan.

The man at the head was white-faced and black-bearded, tall and with his hands hanging down his knees. This person is Gongsun Zhan's classmate who studied under Lu Zhimen, Liu Bei and Liu Xuande. And the two people around him, the nine-foot-tall red-faced man named Guan Yu, a beautiful hair fluttering on his chest; The other has broad shoulders and a round waist, a leopard's head and eyes, and a short beard under the chin.

His name is Zhang Fei, and like Guan Yu, they are Liu Bei's sworn brothers.

These three people fought against Lu Bu under the Tiger Prison before, and Lu Bu was beaten with crooked armor and fled in embarrassment.

Because of this war, people say that Liu Bei's three brothers are 'Sanying'. The reason why Gongsun Chan dared to be so arrogant was also because of the three of them.

Cao Cao glanced at the three of them, and his gaze fell on Gongsun Zan again.

He paused, and said softly: "Since Bo Jue has made up his mind, he will no longer stop him."

However, if Bo Jue wants to pursue Lu Bu, how can he be left behind? In this way, please go first, and then answer it. ”
