Sima Yi didn't take a few steps, Dong Zhuo shouted: "My nephew, please stay!"

Sima Yi looked back and Dong Zhuo clearly saw that Sima Yi was indeed a wolf-gu Zhixiang. He felt a sudden heart. After believing Li Ru's words, he began to doubt Wang and Sima Fang.

Because Sima Fang is currently the Jingzhao Yin and has thousands of soldiers in his hand. If Dong Zhuo kills Sima Yi now, he may be against Sima Fang, which is not conducive to Chang'an's defense. Dong Zhuo forced a smile and said, "Nephew, the plan you offered was very good last time. I want to reward you with something." Dong Zhuo took a piece of jade and handed it to Sima Yi.

Sima Yi took the jade with a smile, bid farewell to Dong Zhuo, and left the prime minister's mansion.

Dong Zhuo looked at Sima Yi's back as he left, his face gradually darkened, and he ordered Li Ru: "Send someone to keep an eye on him and notify Duan Wei who is staying in Chang'an to keep a close eye on Sima Fang. As long as Huangfu Song and others retreat, Duan Wei will immediately annihilate Sima Fang's family and their family soldiers to eliminate future troubles!"

"That's the plan Sima Yi offered?!" Li Rudao: "We have formed a secret alliance with Lu Bu. It's not good to incite rebellion in Yecheng."

"The civil strife in Yecheng was all instructed by the king, what does it have to do with our Xiliang army?" Dong Zhuo smiled contemptuously and said, "Lu Bu cannot have no arrangements for the next move. Those corrupt scholars and generals who are not valued by Lu Bu can cause great trouble. As long as Lu Bu returns to Yecheng, he will be able to calm down every day!"

Lu Fan will stay in Luoyang as a hostage. After Lu Bu retreated, he will exchange the Western Liang prisoners for Lu Fan.

Dong Zhuo sent Li Jue to lead hundreds of flying bear troops to protect Jia Xu to Xingyang City, conveying Dong Zhuo's meaning to Xu Rong.

Although Xu Rong was quite suspicious of forming an alliance with Lu Bu, he did not dare to disobey Dong Zhuo's orders and quietly withdrew from Xingyang City from the west gate overnight.

In recent days, Lu Bu said that his men and horses were exhausted in pursuing Xu Rong. So he used Sun Jian's infantry in the east of Danyang invaders as the front drive of the siege and used his thunder chariot as cover to launch several real sieges, but they were all repelled by Xu Rong. Sun Jian killed and injured more than a thousand people. He had complaints, and the head of Xingyang was also damaged by the thunder chariot of the Central Army. There were many gaps. Xu Rong's retreat seemed very reasonable.

Before Xu Rong retreated, he also sent his troops to plunder the city, and plundered a large amount of gold and silver from some aristocratic families close to the Yuan family. The Xiliang soldiers were too focused on burning, killing and plundering, so that some children of aristocratic families actually escaped from Xingyang City through the gap in the city wall and were discovered by the Xiliang soldiers. (The title of this book + Jinghu to watch the fastest update)

Sun Jian's men were closest to Xingyang City, and they were the first to discover Xu Rong's retreat. Sun Jian quickly sent someone to notify Lu Bu. Lu Bu said that the Central Army and Sun Jian's troops were too tired to attack Xu Rong's deserter. He asked Sun Jian to notify the leader Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao had already led his troops to the vicinity of Xingyang City with other noble princes. When Yuan Shao heard Sun Jian say that Xu Rong was preparing to withdraw from Xingyang City overnight, his eyes lit up. Is it possible to attack Dong Zhuo really successful? He summoned Yuan Shu, Yuan Yi, Liu Dai, Qiao Mao, Zhang Miao, Zhang Chao and other noble princes to discuss matters and discuss whether to continue to march.

Previously, Xu Rong's army defeated Wang Kuang, Cao, and Bao Xin in Xingyang. These noble princes were afraid of Xu Rong and did not dare to advance. Now Xu Rong took the initiative to withdraw from Xingyang City, which is likely because Xu Rong was crippled by Lu Bu's Central Army before, and felt that he could not defend Xingyang City.

These noble princes felt that their chance to become famous all over the world had come. They could not fight against the Western Liang cavalry like Lu Bu's Central Army. However, they still took the initiative to pursue Xu Rong and beat the dogs in the water. Several noble families who escaped from Xingyang City confirmed the news that Xu Rong abandoned the city and fled, and strengthened Yuan Shao and others' confidence in pursuing Xu Rong's remaining soldiers, because Xu Rong took away a lot of gold, silver and wealth from Xingyang City...

Under the supervision of Cao, each of the princes of Yuan Shao and other aristocratic families ordered elite soldiers from their headquarters, with a total of more than 80,000 people heading together to pursue the tens of thousands of remaining soldiers of Xu Rong.

Lu Bu and Sun Jian led his troops into Xingyang City. According to Lu Bu's instructions, Sun Jian led his troops to search some aristocratic families in Xingyang City for accusation of affair with Dong's thieves. Together with some of the supplies that Xu Rong had not had time to take away, they were divided into two, Lu Bu's central army and Sun Jian's entries.

Afterwards, Lu Bu ordered all the people to rest and rest, to accumulate energy, and to prepare for the emergence of the critical moment.

Thirty miles west of Xingyang City is the Si River. The Si River comes out of the eastern foot of Fuxi Mountain and flows into the Cheguan River, Yanglan River, and Pu River flows northward, and then enters the Xingyang territory. Through its west, flows northward into the Yellow River. In the fourth year of Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty, Cao Ju, the Grand Sima of Chu, was defeated by the Han army and committed suicide on this water.

Thirty miles west of the Sishui River is the famous Hulao Pass. According to legend, when King Mu of Zhou was hunting in the garden and ordered his followers to plunder the forest and frighten the beasts, he suddenly saw a tiger swimming among the reeds. The emperor was about to arrive. The seven-collection man rushed to Rongsheng to capture tigers and offered to the emperor. He ordered it to be a shark and a livestock Dongguo, which is called Hulao. The name of Hulao began from then on.

When Yuan Shao led the elite army of 80,000 Guandong families to the Sishui family, it was nearly five o'clock in the morning. The sky was getting dark. Xu Rong crossed the river in the dark. Most of them had already crossed the Sishui, and some remaining soldiers were still crossing the river.

When the princes of the aristocratic families saw that the west bank of Sishui was full of dense forests, they might have ambushed. They were afraid that they would fall like Cao and Bao Xin, so they hesitated. But the soldiers below saw Xu Rong's rear army's baggage truck scattering on the ground, scattering gold and silver all over the ground, emitting a brilliant golden and silver light under the rising sun. Most of these Kwantung soldiers did not have strict military discipline. When the general was still hesitating whether to attack, they saw money and swarmed up and chased Xu Rong's rear army along the floating bridge that Xu Rong's army had no time to destroy.

When Xu Rong's rear army saw the Kwantze League army coming in a crazily, they threw the baggage chariots all over the ground and fled in panic.

The soldiers of Kanto League put the gold and silver discarded on the ground into their pockets and continued to pursue them, because more than 30,000 remaining soldiers of Xu Rong kept running towards Hulaoguan, constantly throwing away his helmets and armor, and taking away his gold and silver goods.

Seeing that most of the soldiers were chasing them, these noble princes of the aristocratic families had seen the dense forests on both sides for a long time, and they rushed through the Sishui River with confidence. In the end, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu brothers also led their troops to the Sishui River. Originally, Yuan Shu was in charge of food and grass and should be staying behind, but he exhorted that this time, the soldiers entered Hulao Pass and were about to attack Hulao Pass, so the food and grass must be kept up.

Since Cao was defeated by Xu Rong, he was still in fear. He gathered up his and Bao Xin's seven thousand remaining soldiers, and urged the other princes to cross the river as General Fenwu. He used the excuse that there were too many soldiers under his command to stop crossing the river.

The dense forest on the west bank of the Sishui River stretched for more than ten miles. Liu Dai and Qiao Mao's men continued to chase Xu Rong's men and had just left the dense forest.

A shrill and long horn sounded, and a large area of ​​Xiliang cavalry suddenly turned from both sides of the dense forest. Each Xiliang cavalry is currently heavy-armored cavalry wearing iron armor and horse armor. The official road in the middle of the dense forest is very wide, with a foot of seven or eight feet. It leads to the slight slope of the water, which is suitable for heavy-armored cavalry to be used.

Once the heavy armored cavalry was launched, they swept over like a tsunami of landslides and tsunamis. They would die if they hit each other, and would die if they were next to each other.

The Kanto League soldiers who were already picking up the spoils discarded by Xu Rong's deserter were unable to form an array of soldiers. They could not organize a spear formation like the Central Army in a hurry. They did not have the powerful crossbow soldiers like the Central Army, and they were unable to stop the armored cavalry from ravaging them...

Two thousand iron-armored cavalry rushed into the Kanto League army, like tigers entering a flock of sheep, unstoppable and bloody. The more clever Kanto League soldiers fled to both sides of the iron-armored cavalry, but they could not escape the pursuit of the Xiliang Light Cavalry that followed.

The Xiliang Iron Cavalry stepped wildly through the bodies of the Guantung League soldiers. Countless Allied soldiers were knocked to the ground by the Iron Cavalry, and blood was spewed out of their mouths. They screamed and fell under the horse hoof of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. Their weapons fell to the ground. Their hands stretched forward weakly, but their arms were stomped by the thick horse hoof of the Iron Cavalry later.

Some of the Allied soldiers who dodged aside were glad that they had escaped from the ravages of the Iron Cavalry, but were pierced by the spear of the Xiliang Light Cavalry. The Xiliang Light Cavalry threw the Allied soldiers who had pierced the body to the ground and then rode their horses to trample over them.

Most of the Kanto League troops were from Yuzhou, Yanzhou, Xuzhou, and Jingzhou. These states did not produce war horses, so there were very few Allied cavalry. When they encountered cavalry on this plain, they would only be abused.

The iron-armored cavalry was unstoppable, and the Xiliang Light Cavalry behind them was also unstoppable, because all obstacles were swept away by their two young gods of war. All Allied generals who dared to organize allied soldiers to stop the attack of the Xiliang cavalry were either dead under Yan Xing's spear or under Zhang Xiu's spear. Yan Xing's spear was strange, Zhang Xiu's spear was changeable, and the two of them were perfectly matched to sweep away all the generals who claimed to be powerful generals in the Kwantung Army.

The Yanzhou Governor Liu Dai killed several people in a row, and finally stabilized the formation of the Yanzhou army and horses, but the troops of Qiao Mao, the prefect of Dongjun, who took the lead in defeat, were dispersed.

Liu Dai had already hated Qiao Mao very much. Under Dongjun's rule in Yanzhou, Qiao Mao repeatedly offended Liu Dai, without any respect for Liu Dai, and refused to provide food and grass. Liu Dai had long wanted to get rid of Qiao Mao. Now seeing that Qiao Mao took the lead in fleeing, he rushed forward and took advantage of Qiao Mao's inattention, cut off Qiao Mao's head with a knife, and then shouted: "If you dare to retreat, you will kill him!"

However, Qiao Mao's subordinates were full of Qiao Mao's loyalty. They were both angry at Liu Dai's killing their lords, and hated Liu Dai for blocking their escape route. Obviously, Liu Dai's troops were far less fierce than the Western Liang Iron Cavalry. These Dongjun soldiers rushed towards Liu Dai's Yanzhou soldiers like red eyes: "Dare to kill our lords, dare to block our way of life, go to death!"

The Yanzhou soldiers and the Dongjun soldiers were strangled together, and the chaos was in chaos. Liu Dai, who was broken, regretted that he was too reckless just now, but he had no choice but to lead the Yanzhou soldiers to fight with the Dongjun soldiers.

At this moment, the Western Liang Iron Cavalry had already rolled in~.-~
