Chapter 456: Chang'an Blocking Battle

"Holy War?" Yu Ji and Liu Bei finished speaking, staring their eyes so hard that they did not fall out.

Yu Ji, the old Taoist, lived so old. Although he was not as politically sensitive and skilled as Liu Bei, Yu Ji was still an expert after all, and he usually made friends with him as masters as Mr. Shui Jing. Of course, he understood that the holy war that Liu Bei mentioned was not a good thing. It was clearly Liu Bei who chose himself to lead the jar.

Yu Ji shook his head like a tumbling drum. He refused and said, "No. No. How can this be possible? How can I, a person who is a Taoist practitioner, let innocent scholars die in order to promote the Taoist Dharma?"

"Old immortal, isn't there any way to do this? Now Sun Ce has joined forces with Yuan Shu and sent troops to siege Yu Bei again. Now that I have lost all my Tu Zhong, I will never be able to fight on both sides with my strength alone. And your friend can't get anyone out of help now. Bei is really hard to support. And after Bei is extinguished, your Holy Fire Sect will be even more difficult to survive. Now, your Holy Fire Sect in Lujiang has been completely cleaned by Sun Ce.

.Sun Ce has formed a mortal enemy with your Holy Fire Sect. Even if you want to resolve it and settle the matter, Sun Ce will never leave the hidden danger of your Holy Fire Sect. And your loyal believers will never allow the executioner who killed their fellow Taoists to be fair. Since things have reached this point, will you admit that Sun Ce will wipe out all your efforts and kill all the religious people who are loyal to the Holy Fire Sect!" Liu Bei looked at Yu Ji very sincerely and said.

Yu Ji was speechless at that time. What Liu Bei said was the truth. Yu Ji could not refute it. Now Sun Ce has designated the Holy Fire Cult as a cult and has also killed so many Holy Fire Cultists. After Sun Ce unified Jiangdong and Jiangnan, Sun Ce would definitely not be able to keep such a hidden danger as the Holy Fire Cult to cause trouble afterwards. Even if he wanted to endure it, Sun Ce would not believe it. Moreover, the current Holy Fire Cult has suffered such great losses, and if there is no explanation, it would be difficult to explain to those believers. In addition, Yu Ji is a little older now, and Yu Ji really doesn't have so much energy to abandon the foundation in front of him and start again.

Seeing that Yu Ji was a little hesitant, Liu Bei said, "Old immortal, this holy war is not your selfish intention, nor is it that you want those innocent believers to die. It is because Sun Ce forced him. With Sun Ce's order, the backbone of your teachings will definitely not withdraw from the religion. And they have no organization or resistance, except being killed by Sun Ce. If you initiate a holy war, you are saving their lives. And those believers with unstable positions will also strengthen their confidence. This is a great opportunity for you to promote Taoism!"

It doesn't matter if a person has weaknesses, but if others know about weaknesses, it will be troublesome. A great paranoia like Yu Ji, the only thing he can't let go of in his life is to promote Taoism and pass on Taoism. This is fully known by Liu Bei. Yu Ji can't even plot against Liu Bei.

Yu Ji said hesitantly: "Donald Xuande, even if we launch a holy war, we can act hastily and have insufficient preparation. How can the believers resist the army of Sun Ce and others?"

Liu Bei said calmly: "Old God, in the past, Zhang Jiao claimed to be a great wise and good teacher. He waved his arms and responded to him, and millions of believers fought for him. If it weren't for his final disciplinary measures and his followers became bandits, the world might have changed hands. Now, Old God, your Taoism is more than Zhang Jiao, and your believers are more loyal than his. What else do you have to worry about? Do you have no confidence in yourself?"

Thinking back to the beginning, Liu Bei asked Yu Yu Ji for advice. Yu Ji pointed directly at his original heart, and said so casually. But now, Yu Ji has been captured by Liu Bei and dominated his thinking. This is probably what is called: the person involved is confused.

Yu Ji thought: Even juniors like Zhang Jiao can have such appeal, of course he can be even better. As for commanding troops and horses, although he is not good at it, there is still Liu Bei. Liu Bei has fought for so many years, and although there is no big victory, there is no loss. If Liu Bei had not been lucky and had always lacked major generals, Liu Bei would not be inferior to Sun Ce and the others. Previously, when Sun Ce's family fought with Liu Bei, they were always suppressed by Liu Bei. This would have to mobilize the believers to join the army. Liu Bei had enough troops and horses, of course he could defeat Sun Ce and the others. Moreover, it was not possible, was there Sima Hui? He could not stand by death.

So Yu Ji gritted his teeth and said, "Okay. I will fight with God this time."

Afterwards, Yu Ji asked Liu Bei to prepare equipment, and he went to mobilize the priests of the Holy Fire Sect to join Liu Bei's army to resist Sun Ce's invasion. At the same time, Yu Ji also promised Liu Bei that he would go to see Sima Hui in person and ask some helpers for Liu Bei to come back.

Just as Liu Bei and Yu Ji and others were launching a sacred war in Jiangnan, a huge army of horses were also rushing to Chang'an.

"Quick! Quick! Quick! After passing the hillside ahead, we will arrive. If it is late, the military advisor will scold you, beware that I will kill you!" The generals in the army kept shouting and urging.

But just as this army had just arrived at the hillside, suddenly, the sound of horse hooves sounded. Before the troops were rushing to wake up, arrows were like rain on the hillside, and the troops that were marching were in chaos at that time. At the moment of chaos in this army, a large number of horse soldiers turned around after the hillside. A sharp armor and a bright sword and gun were rushing into the chaotic army fiercely like a sharp arrow off the string. The already chaotic army suddenly showed a trend of collapse. The cooperation of the entire attack was really perfect.

"I am Duan Cheng, deputy general of Wuguan, and the enemy general dares to fight to the death!" Duan Cheng could not control the situation, and in order to save the defeat, he shouted loudly.

When Duan Cheng had just finished shouting, a general flew in the distance and slashed at Duan Cheng. Duan Cheng hurriedly pushed the flame fork to block it. With a "crack, bang" sound from his earlobe, Duan Cheng and his fork were chopped into two halves by the general and fell into dust.

"Notch rat!" Yan Liang waved the blood from the knife and said disdainfully. He turned to urge the horse and rushed towards the enemy again.

The troops that were already about to collapse had accelerated their collapse even more when Duan Cheng died and no one was in command. The soldiers turned around and ran back with faster speeds, faster enthusiasm and belief than before.

Although there is a joke that a wolf chasing him behind him will fully realize his potential and can run extremely quickly. But in fact, how can a person's legs run across the horse? What's more, the army turned around and the troops behind him don't know what was happening in front. How can they run when they are crowded together?

As Yan Liang's soldiers shouted loudly in Youzhou's traditional sayings: "You have been surrounded, put down your weapons, those who kneel down will not die!" and "The thief leader is dead, those who kneel down will not be killed!" The troops brought by the dead ghost Duan Cheng abandoned their weapons and surrendered one after another.

Seeing that the overall situation was settled, Yan Liang blocked the war horse and praised in his heart: This besieging the city to attack the aid was indeed a clever plan. The 50,000 enemy troops were taken down without much effort, which was really easy.

Afterwards, Yan Liang counted the battle report and brought 30,000 people to ambush here. His own losses were only 600, and nearly 6,000 enemies killed and the enemy trampled on each other. More than 30,000 prisoners were captured, but less than 1,000 people ran into the coniferous mountains and could not be pursued. This was really an easy meritorious service.

After Yan Liang finished the statistics, he took back the team to Chang'an camp in Youzhou and handed over to Liu Ming and Guan Yu to ask for credit.

Liu Ming remembered Yan Liang's great achievements, and then ordered people to call this matter to Dong Zhuo Chang'an's army, and the people knew about it. At the same time, he ordered people to write the fact that the reinforcements from Dong Zhuo Wu Pass had been annihilated on white paper, divided into dawn, and two hours in the evening, shooting into the city with headless bows and arrows, shaking the soldiers guarding the Chang'an city and the people's confidence.

After Dong Zhuo learned about this, he immediately ordered someone to ask Li Ru to ask. However, Li Ru immediately ordered the soldiers to search the leaflets shot in Youzhou in the city. Li Ru issued a strict order, and if any people or officers and soldiers dared to secretly hide the leaflets of Youzhou or were discussing this time, they would be killed without mercy!

After Li Ru finished this matter, he followed the summoner to Jin to meet Dong Zhuo.

When Dong Zhuo saw Li Ru, he immediately asked in panic: "Son-in-law, the reinforcements from our Wuguan were destroyed by Youzhou. Do you think this is true or false?"

"My father-in-law, in the opinion of the son-in-law, this matter is probably true. According to the son-in-law's order, our reinforcements from Wuguan will arrive in the past or two days. Liu Ming and others will not be able to promote this matter at this time."

"Ah? Our reinforcements have been eliminated by them. We have no reinforcements outside, how can we defend Chang'an?" Dong Zhuo asked in horror.

"It's okay. The Wuguan place is the place where Cao Cao's enemy is unknown now, so I dare not dim all the troops in Wuguan. Therefore, the reinforcements that came and returned to the rescue this time were only half of the troops in Wuguan. There were only 50,000. They walked in the mainland and were accidentally noticed by the well-informed Youzhou, and discovered and defeated it. However, they were just reinforcements used by the son-in-law to attract Liu Ming's attention and disperse Liu Ming's troops. The son-in-law had previously ordered the transfer of Guo Si's leadership from Wuwei.

The troops returned to the rescue, and the Wuwei soldiers had 100,000. Guo Si himself had been in martial arts for many years and had rich experience. He was transferred back from the north that the Youzhou army was beyond the reach of the Youzhou army. In addition, our Wuwei troops attracted the attention of Youzhou, Guo Si would definitely be able to bring the troops back to support him without any accident. Besides, I have told you my last method. This is what happened in the past few days. At that time, Liu Ming can't afford it and take care of it. What else do you have to worry about?" Li Ru said calmly.

When Dong Zhuo heard this, he was so happy that he laughed. He didn't notice what Li Ru said about his orders to return with all his troops. What should Wuwei's defense do? At this time, Dong Zhuoguang was thinking about his own safety, but how could he think that the people of Wuwei would be plundered by foreign tribes without the protection of officers and soldiers? Although even if Dong Zhuo's troops were stationed there, they would not be much exploitation and exploitation of the local people, but this meaning was always different. No matter what, Dong Zhuo, as an official of the Han Dynasty, was also responsible for defending the territory.

At this time, will Liu Ming and the others really stop paying attention to Dong Zhuo’s reinforcements in other places just because they eliminated Dong Zhuo’s reinforcements?

How is this possible?

Liu Ming and his team's plan originated from Huang Yueying's seven-year plan. After research and improvement by many advisers such as Guo Jia and Jia Xu, they considered a lot of things and were formulated very perfectly. Surrounding Chang'an was to siege the city to fight for assistance, and all the soldiers who left Dong Zhuo in other cities were led outside Chang'an City to be eliminated to reduce the difficulties in accepting Dong Zhuo's other places after conquering Chang'an. Anyway, with Dong Zhuo in Chang'an, they could not come to rescue him. When Dong Zhuo disappeared, Dong Zhuo's troops in other places were almost exhausted. How could there be other people in Liangzhou dare to resist stubbornly?

Therefore, on the important roads where Dong Zhuo came from other places, there were Liu Ming's horses guarding the horses day and night. With the flying eagle, Dong Zhuo's troops moved in and Liu Ming could immediately get information and make correct arrangements. Unless Li Ru and Dong Zhuo did not know about secret troops and horses, and they were not coming to Chang'an, it would be impossible to hide it from Liu Ming. After all, even if the actions of tens of thousands of troops were secret, they would not be as unaware as one or two people walking. Tens of thousands of people were walking, and people a few miles away could be heard without looking.

Wen Chou, who was under Liu Ming, had already been ordered to receive 100,000 troops and horses, bypassed Chang'an, and blocked Guo Si who came to rescue from Wuwei.

However, Wen Chou was very fierce. Liu Ming ordered him to block the attack, and his original intention was to let him choose a good place, just like Yan Liang, to give Guo Si a cold and defeat Guo Si's reinforcements in one fell swoop. But Wen Chou didn't hear it, and the other was Wen Chou couldn't do anything to choose a place and ambush. He just let Liu Ming down on his good intentions. This was also a fault for Liu Ming and Guo Jia around him for a long time, and he treated everyone as smart people who could just do it.

After Wen Chou led his troops out, he directly picked up a vast place, set up a formation, and waited for Guo Si's arrival to have a clear battle with Guo Si and defeated Guo Si's troops head-on.

Wen Chou's blatant interception would naturally be discovered by Guo Si. A fierce battle that shouldn't have happened was staged.
