The shouting and killing sound of the sky was transmitted into the big tent of the Chinese army in the alliance, and the princes of the Seventeenth Road changed their complexions when they heard it.

Yuan Shao stood up in a panic and said hurriedly: "Could it be that Dong Zhuojun is attacking the camp!" ”

Previously, Hua Xiong was brave and brave, and even picked up two generals, Yu Shi and Pan Feng, but left a lot of psychological shadows on many princes. At this moment, the drums outside the camp shook the sky, and the shouts of killing were like a mountain collapsing and the earth cracking, and the sky was falling. Most of the princes of the Seventeenth Road thought that Huaxiong had won again, and they couldn't help but lose their color.

Yuan Shao, who got up, was about to send someone to find out the truth and reality, and saw a small colonel rushing into the account.

When the princes saw it, their hearts jumped in shock. Even Li Yi, who was calm and composed, saw that everyone was panicked, and he was also infected, and he was muttering.

"Report ...... That Huaxiong, Huaxiong ...... "The little school was so excited that after running hundreds of meters, he couldn't say it all while breathing.

Li Yi scolded in his heart, what is the quality of this soldier under Yuan Shao, Du Nima, either falling down and gnawing, or out of breath, no wonder with the land of four states and an army of more than 100,000 can't beat Cao Apu in two states and 20,000 people.

Just when Yuan Shao was displeased, the little colonel finally took a breath and said hurriedly: "General Lu Wenlong's Huaxiong, who was beaten in seven moves, vomited blood and left, and led three thousand iron cavalry from the north to kill five thousand iron cavalry from Xiliang, beheaded eight hundred, and captured more than three thousand!" ”

"What!" The princes were shocked, and they all got up in shock.

After Ding Yuan, Kong Rong and other princes gasped, they couldn't help but praise: "With the hussar general here, Dong Zhuo will be destroyed in the near future!" ”

Yuan Shao was the leader of the alliance, but he was robbed of the limelight by Li Yi, and he was very unhappy, but he still said with a smile: "There are many talents under the account of Brother Peng Feixian, and a small military candidate can defeat a general like Hua Xiong, I admire it!" ”

Li Yi smiled secretly, and said in his heart that all this was arranged by labor and management. With Lu Wenlong's ability. It's enough to be a lieutenant or even a lieutenant general. Moreover, with his strength, not to mention that Hua Xiong vomited blood and walked away, even if he killed him, it would not be difficult. It's just because labor and management are worried about killing Huaxiong, so that Dong Zhuo's old boy can't play, so he just slaps his ass and leaves. This didn't let Lu Wenlong be ruthless.

At this time, Lu Wenlong's blood-stained robe walked in, and he didn't look at Yuan Shao, who was the leader of the alliance, and walked straight to Li Yi, and said: "Lord, Lu Wenlong is fortunate not to be dishonored, he has seriously injured Huaxiong and defeated the Xiliang army!" ”

"Good, good, good!" Li Yi rang three times.

Cao Cao immediately fell in love with Lu Wenlong. Hurriedly went to get the wine on the table. didn't think that Li Yi had already calculated it, walked over quickly, and picked it up first.

Cao Cao was stunned.

Li Yi made a look, and the meaning couldn't be more obvious: Cao Apu, this is my general, don't play any tricks on you.

Cao Cao was furious when he saw this, and he was about to refute it, but he thought of Li Yi's fierceness. Thinking about it, forget it, and comfort yourself: Who made us a step slower. Just be generous and give it to Li Yi's kid.

Li Yi took the wine over and said with a smile: "Wenlong, this wine is still warm!" ”

"Lord!" Lu Wenlong felt the sincerity of the lord, bowed to the ground, took a drink and drank it all.

Everyone saw that Li Yi was in harmony with Lu Wenlong's ministers. They are all envious. I secretly thought that if I had such a general, why worry about the great cause!

………………

The coalition camp was overjoyed and morale was high because of Lu Wenlong's serious injury to Huaxiong, and some princes clamored to enter Luoyang. captured Dong Zhuo alive, but when Yuan Shao led his troops to attack the Tiger Prison Pass, no one stood up and squeaked.

What are you kidding, attacking the Tiger Prison, is that what people do? Previously, Xu Rong only had 5,000 men and horses to defend the pass, and Sun Jian led an army of 20,000 to attack, but he lost a lot, and he did not take the pass. Now Hu Zhen is leading an army of 20,000 to garrison, and although the number of soldiers in the hands of our people is about the same as Sun Jian, they are not material for war, how can we attack the pass?

If, as before, the two sides sent one or two generals to fight one-on-one in front of the battle, it would just be a matter of playing. Dispatch a large army to attack the pass, hehe, it's not early, everyone should wash and sleep.

These princes all know that if they send a large army to attack the Tiger Pass, whether they can attack it or not, the casualties will definitely be very heavy. Isn't Sun Jian the best example before?

Originally, Gongsun Zhan was still interested in planning to send troops to attack, but after Li Yi gave him a look, he also sat firmly on Mount Tai and no longer came up.

In fact, Gongsun Chan was also a hot blood rush at that time, although he brought 15,000 troops, but 10,000 of them were cavalry, only 5,000 foot soldiers, attacking the Tiger Prison Pass garrisoned by 20,000 people, what is the use?

Therefore, after the coalition battalion no longer came out to challenge in Huaxia, it fell into festivities. The princes got together every day to drink and brag, and the days went by.

In Luoyang, a few hundred miles away, Dong Zhuo was in a dilemma.

On the one hand, the princes did not move forward and did not have the strength to attack the Tiger Prison Pass at all, and it was not good for him to lead the army to retreat to Chang'an like this, otherwise the morale of the army would be dealt a heavy blow.

But if you don't retreat, it's not a matter to confront the princes in Luoyang, the army is always in a state of readiness, and the consumption of grain and grass is huge, and now the most lacking thing in the Xiliang army is grain and grass.

In order to maintain the expenses of more than 100,000 troops, Dong Zhuo has basically stripped off a layer of land in Yin, Henan, and it is difficult to find out what kind of food. And there is not much grain and grass left in the army.

At this time, good news came from the front line, saying that Hu Zhen's general Hua Xiong defeated Sun Jianjun, which made Dong Zhuo very happy, so he added Hua Xiong as a captain.

Dong Zhuo knew Hua Xiong's bravery, and after thinking that there didn't seem to be any powerful generals in the coalition army, he thought about it for a while, and asked Hua Xiong to follow the example of the ancient generals and go to the coalition camp to challenge and hit the morale of the coalition army. Only when the morale of the coalition forces was low did he lead a large army to attack and defeat the coalition forces.

According to the news from the scouts, Hua Xiong's challenge was smooth at first, and he killed two princes' generals in succession. But in the third game, the unfortunate news came, Li Yi sent an army to fight, and in seven moves, Hua Xiong was beaten to vomit blood and fled, and the 5,000 troops who went with him only fled back more than 1,000 points.

Hearing the news, Dong Zhuo was so angry that he almost vomited blood on the spot. Nima Li Yi is really a cheat, he actually sent a general to disguise himself as a soldier to fight.

Dong Zhuo couldn't understand how Li Yi guessed that he would send someone to challenge in front of the coalition army. You must know that this kind of tactic has not appeared for hundreds of years, and it was Li Ru who reminded him that he remembered that there had been such a thing. And it was precisely because of the fact that none of the generals under Li Yi's command went south with the army, and it was impossible for Li Yi himself to stand up and fight alone with a small person like Hua Xiong, that he ordered Hua Xiong to act according to the plan. Unexpectedly, he still fell into Li Yi's calculations, so that Hua Xiong, a fierce general in Xiliang, was seriously injured and lost more than 3,000 horses.

At this time, Dong Zhuo already wanted to withdraw from the army.

However, the sudden arrival of a person made him dispel the idea of retiring from the army.

This person's name is Zhang Xiu, he is the nephew of his general Zhang Ji, who studied under the famous martial arts master Tong Yuan of the Han Dynasty.

Originally, Zhang Xiu was appointed by Dong Zhuo as the Taishou of Beidi County, stationed in the rear, and worked with Dong Yue to guard against Han Sui Ma Teng's rebels in Xiliang.

Just a few days ago, Dong Yue and Zhang Xiu led a large army to fight with Han Sui and Ma Teng's men and horses, Zhang Xiu defeated Ma Chao, the son of Ma Teng, who was the strongest martial artist in the Xiliang rebels, and defeated the Xiliang rebels. Ma Teng and Han Sui had no choice but to withdraw their troops, and Han Sui returned to his old nest, Jincheng County, and Ma Teng also returned to his old nest, Wuwei County.

In this way, the threat to Dong Zhuo's rear was temporarily lifted, which also made Dong Zhuo dispel the idea of withdrawing troops.

Especially after Zhang Xiu knew the battle situation ahead, he very resolutely asked to go to the Tiger Prison Pass to challenge the generals under the command of the princes, especially Li Yi.

Although Zhang Xiu has no enmity with Li Yi, his uncle Zhang Ji has an enmity with Li Yi. And Zhang Xiu has great respect for his uncle. Because Zhang Xiu's parents died early, he was raised by his uncle Zhang Ji since he was a child. The two are called uncles and nephews, but they are better than father and son.

In the past few years, because he had no chance to fight Li Yi on the battlefield, he never found a chance to avenge his uncle. Now that Li Yi has joined the coalition of the princes, and the two sides are on a hostile position, isn't it the best chance for him to take revenge?

Dong Zhuo knows Zhang Xiu's martial arts, over the years, Zhang Xiu has fought in Xiliang, especially after serving as the Taishou of Beidi County, he is called the "Gun King of Beidi" by the people in the county, and even Huaxiong will be defeated if he can't hold on to three moves in his hands, how powerful is that. The subordinate of Li Yi, who defeated Hua Xiong, also used seven moves to win, and he must not be Zhang Xiu's opponent.

And Lu Wenlong, who defeated Hua Xiong, must be Li Yi's hidden backhand. Now that he has been exposed, it has lost its effect. Send Zhang Xiu to fight again to see who else Li Yi can deal with.

The plan was decided, Dong Zhuo appointed Zhang Xiu as a lieutenant and led an army of 10,000 to support the Tiger Prison Pass.

When Zhang Xiu received the order, he was very happy to light 10,000 horses and hurried to the Tiger Prison Pass.

The next day, Dong Zhuo, who had no worries, led an army of 50,000 out of Luoyang, and the troops were divided into two routes. He took another 30,000 to the Tiger Prison Pass, and led 20,000 troops to the Rotary Gate Pass all the way, thinking that it was a corner.

The revolving gate is 30 miles southwest of the Tiger Prison Pass, and the seven passes around Luoyang, Yique, Guangcheng, Dagu, Yuyuan, Mengjin, Xiaopingjin, etc., are collectively called "Luoyang Eight Passes", and it is also one of the important gateways in the east of Luoyang. It is only because its geographical location is slightly more remote, and it is surrounded by Songshan Mountain and the roads are difficult to travel, so its status is not as prominent as Tiger Pass.

But now that Dong Zhuo personally led the army to the Tiger Prison Pass, the status of the Revolving Gate Pass, which is not far from it, has become important. Because once the revolving gate pass is captured by the alliance of princes, it means that the back road of Dong Zhuo's army is likely to be cut off. Therefore, Dong Zhuocai sent Guo Yan to lead an army of 20,000 to garrison the Revolving Gate Pass. (To be continued.) )
