Fifteen miles outside Yangren City, the main army led by Dong Zhuo himself was stationed here.

Originally, Dong Zhuo decided to organize soldiers and horses again at noon today to meet the Jing and Yu coalition forces in Yangren City.

During this period of time, Dong Zhuojun has been taking a posture of fierce attack, and he has constantly driven troops to put pressure on Yangren City.

But the problem is that the defensive ability of Jing and Yu's armies is really beyond Dong Zhuo's imagination!

In the battle, the iron cavalry and fast horses of the Xiliang army were basically useless, Dong Zhuo's biggest advantage no longer existed, and in terms of attacking the fortifications, Dong Zhuo, who occupied Luoyang and controlled the central army of Luoyang, although his soldiers had sophisticated equipment, but in the face of the Jing and Yu coalition forces that were stubbornly defended like turtles, they could not take advantage of it.

Jing and Yu's foot soldiers are good at guarding, especially Huang Zu, and Wen hires these two people, one is more capable than the other.

If you start a war, you can make the soldiers of the Xiliang Army angry, but you just don't have a chance to take them.

And they are just fighting, not real waste, once they find the fighter in the process, they will bite you hard.

Even Dong Zhuo, who has extremely rich experience in battle, is also useless as a hero when facing these soldiers who are fighting up, and he has a headache.

It was at this juncture that Liu Jiansheng captured Niu Fu and defeated his 30,000 troops, and the news reached Dong Zhuo's ears again.

The moment he heard the news, Dong Zhuo was a little stupid.

It's really bad news one after another.

He stared at the scout who had reported to him, and didn't say anything for a long time.

As the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, the overlord of one side, he actually lost his temper at this moment, which has never happened in the memory of the generals.

Seeing Dong Zhuo's expression, everyone on the left and right didn't dare to say anything.

Who knows what kind of anger Xiangguo will have in his heart at this time, in case he wants to kill someone through his son, wouldn't it be a wrongful death.

But after a long time, Dong Zhuo's voice was not heard.

Dong Zhuo just sat there sullenly, his fists clenched, his brows furrowed, and the expression on his face distorted.

After a while, I saw Dong Zhuo take two deep breaths in a row, as if he was trying to suppress his unsettled heart.

Older people know a truth best, that is, when it is time to manage emotions, you must manage your emotions.

After Dong Zhuo calmed down a bit, he slowly spoke: "The old man looked down on Niu Fu and underestimated Liu Deran...... I wanted to clean up the Yuan thief alliance first, and then deal with Liu Jian, who would have thought that Niu Fu would be defeated so quickly...... How Niu Fu lost to Liu Jian, and tell the old man in detail, don't miss a word!"

When the scout saw Dong Zhuo asking, he immediately told Dong Zhuo word by word about the war between Liu Jian and Niu Fu.

Although the scout did not see it with his own eyes, through some inquiries and hearsay, he was basically able to answer the specific details of Liu Jian's defeat of Niu Fu.

Dong Zhuo Zhuo listened, the darker his face became, his fists were clenched, and his joints seemed to be rattling.

After a while, after the scout finished speaking, Dong Zhuo slowly stood up and roared in a low voice, "Niu Fu misunderstood me! He deserves to be put to death!"

None of the generals spoke, but they knew in their hearts that what Dong Zhuo said was right.

In fact, this time you shouldn't lose at all!

However, Niu Fu rushed to the army and had to fight urgently, which led to the whole trend of the battle on Liu Jian's side, and he himself was led by Liu Jian.

To be honest, Niu Fu is indeed damned.

And what is more difficult to do now is that if Niu Fu dies in battle, it will be fine, but he was also captured alive by Liu Jiansheng.

No matter how bastard he is, he is also Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, how Dong Zhuo punishes him when he turns around, that is his own business.

But if Niu Fu is thrown at Liu Jian like this, it is absolutely impossible for a person of Dong Zhuo's status.

As the most powerful person in the Han Dynasty, his every move was watched by the people of the world.

Now this situation is indeed difficult for Dong Zhuo.

He looked

Everyone asked, "The old man originally wanted to defeat Yuan Hou and break Liu, but he didn't want Yuan Shao to not only have many soldiers now, but also have all the baggage and armament, which is very difficult to fight, and in the short term, the old man and Yuan Shao are afraid that it will be difficult to distinguish the victory and defeat......

"But if Liu Jian takes this opportunity to attack the division and disturb my rear, what should I do? Alas, what a dilemma."

Speaking of this, Dong Zhuo sighed, his expression very lonely.

But it was at this time that a man dressed as a scribe stepped forward.

"Xiangguo is not in a hurry, according to the last official, the primary enemy of Xiangguo is still the Runan Yuan clan, not Liu Jian, although Liu Jian won a big victory, but Xiangguo wants to block his troops, but it is not difficult."

Dong Zhuo looked at the person who spoke, it was the new Prime Minister Shi Liu Ai.

Most of the scholars conquered by Dong Zhuo, similar to Zhang Miao, Wang Fen, Kong Ling, Han Fu and others, betrayed him, but it is not that Dong Zhuo did not win the heart of a single scholar.

Dong Zhuo in this era did not kill the emperor, but was a minister of the Han Dynasty, so he still subdued the hearts of a small number of scholars.

This Liu Ai, like Cai Yong, is a member of the scholars who were subdued by Dong Zhuo.

And Liu Ai's identity is relatively special, he is not only a scholar, but also a member of the Han family.

Listening to Liu Ai's words, Dong Zhuo suddenly came to his senses.

He hurriedly said, "What good plan does Jun have to retreat from Liu Jian?"

Liu Ai said: "Xiangguo, according to the last officials, Yuan Shao, Zhang Miaoqiao, and others are here to seize the authority of Xiangguo, these people are all treacherous and mobs who plot to make peace, Xiangguo and them are endless, and it is difficult to reconcile!"

"But Liu Jian is different from them, Liu Jian is not fighting for power this time, but to avenge Yuan Ji with mourning soldiers, and his behavior belongs to the path of heroism! There is no contradiction between him and Xiangguo in state affairs, and it can even be said that there is some meaning of interdependence."

Dong Zhuo snorted, "This is what the old man is most dissatisfied with! It's obvious that the old man has an alliance with him, but he sent troops to attack me for a Yuan Ji? It really chills the old man!"

Liu Ai shook his head and said, "Xiangguo, in fact, if you think about it carefully, doesn't Liu Jian's behavior like this also prove that he is a person who values love and righteousness? Compared to Yuan Shao, who is under the banner of righteousness, but actually does despicable things, isn't a person like Liu Deran as good as a sage?"

Dong Zhuo said angrily: "No matter how sage he is, he is also the enemy of the old man!"

Liu Ai said: "Xiangguo, between Liu Jian and Xiangguo, it is not a mortal enemy, about Yuan Ji's matter, there is always an opportunity to resolve it, as long as Xiangguo is willing, the last official is willing to use it as a messenger to go to Yanjin and help Xiangguo say that Liu Jian will withdraw from the army!" The two families have reunited their alliance."

When Dong Zhuo heard this, he was suddenly shocked.

If you can persuade Liu Jian to withdraw from the army, it will really be a piece of your own heart.

When the time comes, he can muster all his strength and fight to the death with Yuan Shao.

It was at this time that a discordant voice sounded.

"Xiangguo, Liu Jian crossed the river several times and entered the division, clashed with our army, and now captured General Niu alive, if Xiangguo negotiates peace with him at this time, everyone in the world will think that Xiangguo is afraid of Liu Jian! Then Liu Jian will also think that he has frightened Xiangguo, and he will have no scruples about Xiangguo from now on, and it is not advisable to negotiate peace at this time!"

When Dong Zhuo heard this, he immediately looked to the side.

But I saw a general with an extremely large body, a fierce appearance, and a messy beard on his face stand up.

This person is nine feet tall, with big shoulders and a round waist, and his face is full of horizontal meat, and he is full of confidence when he speaks, and his voice is loud, and he is a proper Northwest man.

"Captain Hua?"

Dong Zhuo raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at the person in front of him, and said, "What is Captain Hua's good plan?"

Hua Xiong said: "Xiangguo, my subordinates think that it is okay to negotiate peace with Liu Jian, but it is not possible to negotiate peace at this time! If you want to talk about peace, you must first stand on the battlefield! Win Liu Jian first, let him know the strength of my Liangzhou warriors, and then make peace talks, this is the best choice for Xiangguo!"

Dong Zhuo listened to Hua Xiong's words, and his eyes suddenly lit up:

"That's right!"

Du Hu Zhen also stood up and said, "Xiangguo, Captain Hua is very right, the soldiers under Xiangguo's command

Horses are the top in the world, the forbidden army of the Han Dynasty, the elite of Liangzhou, and the elite of the state are all led by Xiangguo! More than 100,000 strong soldiers look at the world, they can be described as invincible! If you negotiate peace with Liu Jian in the case of defeat, it will really damage the prestige of the country! It is not conducive to the future dominance of the country!"

Dong Zhuo said with satisfaction: "Yes, the old man has fought for half his life and rarely lost, but now that he is extremely powerful, how can he let Liu Jian be frightened?"

"The old man has decided, just according to what you said, don't make peace with Liu Jian for the time being!"

"Send troops and beat him hard! Let Liu Deran also know what it is like to be defeated, let him know too! Not everyone in this world can be messed with!"

"Then the old man will slowly negotiate with him."

Liu Ai heard Dong Zhuo say this, and hurriedly said, "Xiangguo, why do you have to do this? It's just a slight misunderstanding, so why bother with Liu Jian?"

Dong Zhuo waved his hand and said, "A little misunderstanding? Haha, that's not a misunderstanding! Liu Jian wants to avenge Yuan Ji, so he naturally has to show his ability and means, if he can't stop the old man's thunderous blow, what qualifications does he have to talk about the word "revenge"? The old man wants Liu Deran to know that the young man should not get carried away because of his momentary success, and if he wants to regret it in the future, there is no way back!"

Liu Ai still wanted to admonish, but Dong Zhuo had already stretched out his hand to block his words.

"Needless to say, after this battle, if you win Liu Deran, the old man will naturally send you to negotiate peace with him."

"Hu Zhen, Lu Bu, Hua Xiong obey the order!"

"The end will be!"

When Dong Zhuo's words fell, he saw three generals standing out from the left and right sides respectively.

"Hu Zhen, as the protector of the old man's command, you rarely made any achievements in the previous battle with the sour jujube thieves, but don't let the old man down this time!"

"It's up to you, Governor Hua Xiong and Feng Xian, to fight against Liu Jian! Do you dare?"

Hearing this, Hu Zhen hurriedly said, "It's all up to Xiangguo's orders!"

Dong Zhuo nodded with satisfaction and looked at Lu Bu again.

"Bong-first!"

"Father!"

Lu Bu stepped forward when he heard this.

"The old man thinks you are the governor of the left side, you have to cooperate with Hu Zhen,"

"Liu Deran is not an idle person, you must be careful, this person is good at scheming, you must discuss everything, you must win, and fight for some face for the old man!"

When Lu Bu heard Dong Zhuo say this, he said loudly, "Father-in-law, don't worry, Bu will do his best to defeat Liu Jian!"

Dong Zhuo looked at Hua Xiong again and said, "Captain Hua, the old man has mentioned you as the right commander, you are brave and brave, and you are very famous in Xizhou, you still need to make a lot of contributions in this battle, don't let the old man down!"

Hua Xiong said loudly, "Oh! Xiangguo rest assured, let him Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and the like, what can I do?"

After pacifying the group, Dong Zhuo raised his eyes and looked outside the camp.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Liu Deran, don't think that if you win Niu Fu, you will be able to crush the old man!" Old man, this time, I want you to cry and beg the old man!"
