Tian Feng frowned and said: "The two generals did not listen to my advice and insisted on going to war. Now they are defeated, their morale is dampened, and Luoyang is in danger!"

Gao Lan opened his jaw and looked ashamed.

Guo Tu said angrily: "What's the use of talking about this now? It's only right to find a way to defend Luoyang! I don't think there's anything to worry about! Although our army was defeated, there were still 80,000 troops, twice as many as Lu Bu!

And with the strong city as a support, it is impossible for Lu Bu to capture it!"

Tian Feng frowned and said: "Lv Bu led his army in the Northern Expedition and saved countless people! Many of them were from Luoyang. There is no guarantee that some of them will not collude with Lu Bu! If we cooperate with each other inside and outside, the situation will be critical! I will implement it throughout the city.

Under curfew, the city gates and walls have become a restricted area. No one is allowed to approach without orders. Violators will be killed without mercy!"

Guo Tudao: "You are the left-behind minister, you can do whatever you want."

Tian Feng immediately made arrangements and ordered Zhang Zha and Gao Lan to take turns to be responsible for the defense of Luoyang. He then summoned representatives of the major families in Luoyang and asked them to come out to mobilize militia to strengthen the defense of Luoyang. Tian Feng was very relieved about these big families. After all, these

The big family was almost harmed by Dong Zhuo when he evacuated Luoyang. They all hated Dong Zhuo and his eagles and dogs, so there was no way they could have an affair with Lu Buan.

"Master Tian, ​​why didn't you send someone to inform the Lord of the emergency?" Guo Tu asked in confusion.

Tian Feng asked in reply: "Didn't you say that our army is twice as large as the enemy's and there is a simple defense, so there is no need to worry at all?"

Guo Tu snorted angrily and walked away.

Guo Tu summoned his cronies and handed him a handwritten letter, instructing him to leave the city immediately and rush to Jizhou to deliver it to Yuan Shao.

His eyes turned to the military camp outside the city.

Zhang Lang stood outside the tent and looked at the magnificent city in front of him. He had a strong desire to possess her, but he also knew that with his current strength, it would be difficult to capture this famous Chinese city. Even if he was lucky,

Even if it is captured, it cannot be defended!

The purpose of Zhang Lang's army heading out of Hanguguan to attack Luoyang this time was actually not to occupy Luoyang. Previously, Dong Ying brought a letter from Jia Xu, in which Jia Xu hoped that Zhang Lang could attack Luoyang, and it would be best if he could

Let Yuan Shao feel that Luoyang is in danger, so he can lead his troops back to help. Jia Xu's purpose is to help Gongsun Zan overcome the current crisis. He believes that Yuan Shao is his main threat, so any force that can contain Yuan Shao is a friend.

If you are a friend, you must save him. Zhang Lang believes that Jia Xu's view is very correct.

"General." Ma Teng came over and cupped his fists.

Zhang Lang retracted his thoughts and asked, "How is it?"

"Just now the Sentinels came to report that there were more than a dozen fast horses heading out of the east gate towards Jizhou!"

Zhang Lang smiled slightly.

"General, do you want to launch an attack on Luoyang?"

Zhang Lang thought for a moment, nodded, and ordered: "Divide the infantry into four teams and harass them on all sides, but don't really attack! The cavalry is divided into two teams and deployed in the east and west to attack the enemy troops leaving the city at any time.

Launch an assault!"

"Promise." Ma Teng clasped his fists in agreement and retreated.

That night, there were constant shouts of killing from all directions, and the defenders and people spent the night in fear. The next morning, everyone was exhausted and fell asleep.

A soldier leaning against the wall woke up faintly. He felt a slight vibration under his body. He turned his head and looked outside the city. He saw tens of thousands of Lu Bu's troops pushing various siege equipment.

Approaching the city wall!

The soldiers were shocked, jumped up in panic, and shouted at the top of their lungs: "Lü Bu's army! Lu Bu's army is coming!"

The soldiers on the city wall woke up one after another and were shocked when they saw the scene in front of them!

Taking advantage of the chaos on the city wall, Lu Bu's army launched a fierce attack. City-carrying vehicles violently rammed into the city gate! Ladders were put up on the city wall one after another, and brave soldiers rushed towards the top of the city along the ladders!

Lu Bu's army tore open gaps on the top of the city, and the two sides fought fiercely on the top of the city! The soldiers of Lu Bu's army fought bravely, and the somewhat absent-minded Yuan Shaojun fell into a pool of blood one by one, dead and wounded! In just a moment, Lu Bu's army

He actually controlled several city tops! Lu Bu's army quickly expanded its results along the city wall, and Yuan Shao's army, who had the numerical advantage, was beaten back steadily! There were thunderous roars from the city gate, and the city gate seemed to

I almost can’t support it anymore!

The people in the city couldn't help but tremble in fear as they looked at the fierce battle going on on the city wall. Many people were silently praying for Yuan Shaojun, praying that Yuan Shaojun could defeat the powerful enemy. Some people and noble families crowded with their families at the east city gate.

, clamoring to leave the city, the scene was chaotic.

At the critical moment, Tian Feng, Zhang Jaw, and Gao Lan personally led the army to the city wall and launched a counterattack with absolutely superior force. Although Lu Bu's army was brave and good at fighting, as the saying goes, a tiger cannot hold off a pack of wolves, and the advantages they had gained were gradually lost! Countless soldiers

The figures swarmed on top of the city, shouting and fighting, it was very thrilling!

Seeing that it was difficult to make progress, Zhang Lang ordered his troops to retreat.

The golden bell rang loudly, and Lu Bu's army retreated like an ebbing tide, leaving only a messy scene. The city wall was littered with corpses, and the blood dyed the city wall mottled. A turret was burning, and many soldiers were

Busy putting out the fire.

Tian Feng glanced outside the city and couldn't help but feel lingering fear.

Yuan Shao, who was besieging Yijing, was shocked when he received the urgent report from Guo Tu. He quickly ordered all armies to stop attacking and called everyone to discuss countermeasures.

Yuan Shao sat at the top and asked everyone: "Lü Bu is attacking Luoyang on a large scale, what should we do?" It can be seen that Yuan Shao looked a little flustered.

Jushou thought: "Lü Bu has only 40,000 troops, how can he attack Luoyang! My lord, all we need to do is make the defenders dig deep ditches and fortify the walls, and then Luoyang will be safe! Now that Gongsun Zan is about to be defeated, we must not waste all our efforts at this moment!"

Yuan Shao felt that what Ju Shou said made sense.

Xu You sneered and said: "Lü Bu, you are a tiger and a wolf! Gongsun Zan is just a withered bone in the grave! Let Gongsun Zan go now and attack him next time! But if Luoyang is lost, it will be a disaster. Even if Gongsun Zan is defeated, it will only be a disaster."

I’m afraid I can’t make up for the loss caused by losing Luoyang!”

Yuan Shaoshen nodded with the same feeling, "That's right, that's right! Luoyang must not make any mistakes! Send the order, and the troops will be dispatched immediately! After Yan Liang's death, Wen Choushuai's 30,000 cavalry will rush to Luoyang's aid first!"

Jushou was shocked, "Lord, you must not do such a short-sighted move!"

Yuan Shao was furious, "I have made up my mind! No more words!"

Jushou let out a long sigh.

On the same day, more than 200,000 Yuan Shao's troops retreated.

Gongsun Zan, who was already desperate, could hardly believe his eyes when he saw this scene, and quickly sent scouts out of the city to investigate. Soon after, the scouts reported that Yuan Shao's army had indeed retreated.
Chapter completed!
