Chapter 335 Hit the East and West, leading the snake out of the hole
As Li Zhong left Luoyang with his army, the boiling Luoyang City gradually calmed down.
It seems calm, but it is full of weirdness.
Chang'an, Taishi Mansion.
At this moment, Dong Zhuo is furious and the two are furious.
He was defeated by Li Zhong, and even lost Luoyang, losing nearly 200,000 troops. More importantly, he lost Emperor Liu Xie, which made him the most angry thing. Before he was born in Chang'an, it was rumored that Li Zhong would march to the west in a few days, which made him angry at the same time have a trace of fear and a trace of fear. Helpless.
He has argued with Li Zhong so many times, and every time he has ended in his failure. He doubts whether Li Zhong is the nemesis of his fate.
"Turple, what should we do now?" Dong Zhuo calmed down his inner mood and said.
Li Ru came out and said, "Master, our soldiers used to be too complicated. After the last battle, our army left behind were elites. Although we lost Luoyang and left only the Sanfu area, in the same way, we can also concentrate all our troops here. The previous army was too scattered. Now We gathered them together, and the combat effectiveness we played back is definitely much higher than ever, so there is no need to worry about this battle. Our army will win.
When Dong Zhuo heard the words, he felt a little better and said, "Wen You, why do I feel something is wrong? With Li Zhong's mind, it is impossible to reveal such important news. I'm afraid there is fraud."
Li Ru opened his eyes and looked at Dong Zhuo, as if he were looking at a monster. Dong Zhuo actually began to use his brain. This was something he didn't expect. It seemed that he was hit miserably by Li Zhong, and there was probably a shadow in his heart.
As the saying goes, once you are bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of well rope for ten years!
Li Ru came to his senses and smiled and said, "Master, only Hangu Pass and Tong Pass are the only ones to enter Luoyang. As long as we stick to these two passes and wait for the situation to change in the future, our army will be able to send troops to Luoyang and take it back in the shortest time, but at present, it seems that our army is not appropriate to defend and attack."
"Hmm, I still have nearly 300,000 troops, so I'm not afraid of Li Zhong's child," Dong Zhuo said firmly, but this statement was indeed a little mouthful, and even he blushed for a while.
"Cough, Taishi, our army suffered heavy casualties, countless losses of grain and fodder, and the morale of the army was low, and it was not suitable to fight," Li Ru comforted.
Dong Zhuo nodded and said, "In Yi Wenyou's opinion, what should I do?"
"The master can send a general to guard the Hangu Pass to ensure my safety in Chang'an, and then contact Cao, Yuan Shao and others to deal with Li Zhong. As long as they agree, the master can use their strength to recapture Luoyang again in a short time," Li Ru said.
Dong Zhuo nodded and said, "Okay, it's up to you."
"Li Wei, Guo Wei"
"Master"
"You two take 50,000 troops to the Hangu Pass and be sure to guard this pass, otherwise you will know the consequences, so you don't need to talk about it again," Dong Zhuo said to the two. Although the tone was not very fierce, no one doubted Dong Zhuo's courage and fierceness.
"Yes, Taishi, we will definitely live up to the high expectations of Taishi." The two of them were stunned and hurriedly agreed.
"Well," Dong Zhuo nodded with satisfaction.
"Feng Xian, Hua Xiong, you two recruit 100,000 troops in Luoyang to strengthen our army," Dong Zhuo said.
"Yes", Lv Bu and Huaxiong agreed.
"Okay, you step back, Wen You, you arrange someone to contact Cao and Yuan Shao." After Dong Zhuo finished speaking, he turned around and left here.
Li Wei and Guo Yan can be said to be Dong Zhuo's most confidant generals. Dong Zhuo sent them to resist Li Zhong, which shows Dong Zhu's fear of Li Zhong and the Youzhou army.
For Li Zhong, Hangu Pass is only the first checkpoint for him to enter Chang'an. After the Hangu Pass, there are Tong Pass and the mud overflow. These two passes are both dangerous places that are easy to defend and difficult to attack. It can also be said that these two passes are the inner pass of Hangu Pass.
The alliance that competed against Li Zhong left after attacking the Tiger Prison for half a month without results, and the alliance has been extinguished since then.
However, Yuan Shao did not return to Jiujiang, but went west, and the rest returned to their respective territory.
In three days, Li Zhong took 150,000 troops through Mianchi, Cao Yang, and finally arrived at Gao County, not far from Hangu Pass.
From the three confusions that Gao County did not want, a hidden mountain pass came out. From a distance, it turned out to be a big village.
"Ku Shuai, Li Zhong's army has arrived in Jia County, and it is estimated that it will not be long before they will attack Hangu Pass," said a half-** upper-fitted man on one side of the court. Looking at his appearance, he was very afraid and afraid of this man.
"Well, I know, you go down," the shady man said in a hoarse voice.
"Li Zhong, hum, I don't know if you have forgotten my old friend," the gloomy man muttered, with a chill in his eyes.
Notes on the Water Classic records: "There are mountains of Panla, Shila and Qianla, so it is called 'Sanla', and it is also divided into Dongla Mountain and Westla Mountain, so it is called 'Erla'.
In ancient times, Laoshan and Hangu Pass were called the plug of "Guanhan", which was known as "the dangerous world of Laohan".
However, since the beginning of Han*, Laoshan has been gradually replaced by the Hangu Pass, and the danger of the Hangu Pass is no worse than that of the Hangu Pass, and the Hangu Pass is also the boundary between the middle and the outer customs, which shows how important the location of the Hangu Pass is.
If Li Zhong wants to take Guanzhong, he must take the Hangu Pass across the Guanzhong and outside the Guanguan in his hands.
"Lord, Luoyang Flying Pigeon Biography", Li Zhongzheng looked at the map carefully and was suddenly interrupted by a sound.
When Li Zhong saw that it was Xu Chu, he took the paper and nodded with a smile. He said to Xu Chu, "Zhongkang, send an order that the army will gather outside the city tomorrow morning to prepare to attack Hangu Pass."
"Yes, Lord", Xu Chu said with a promise and retreated.
"Hmm, * has come out. It's really a vegetarian." After Xu Chu left, Li Zhong took the message and said to himself.
"All is ready, only the east wind"
These eight words are on the note.
Dongdong!
With the dull sound of drums, the tranquility of the morning was broken.
Outside Gao County, the 150,000 troops of Youzhou Army have assembled and are waiting for the god in their hearts.
Drive!
Under the escort of Dian Wei Xuchu and 5,000 iron guards, Li Zhong, dressed in armor, appeared in front of everyone.
"Departure"
Li Zhong pulled out his sword at his waist, pointed forward and shouted.
roar!
More than 100,000 troops roared, and then turned into a long black dragon and headed for Hangu Pass.
