Chapter 316 314, A good show is about to be staged.
Liu Bei captured Sishui Pass and continued to arrange for Wenpin to guard Sishui Pass. After taking a short rest, he led his men and horses and continued to rush to Luoyang.
Liu Bei's attack here was extremely smooth, but the Hulao Pass side was a bit of a headache for the coalition forces.
Because this guy Guo Si is actually an unparalleled warrior.
A first-level master.
No one thought of this.
Coupled with the fact that Hulao Pass was guarding the city, and Wei Yan was secretly helping, the coalition's hundreds of thousands of troops were unable to do anything against a small Hulao Pass.
This is so fucking embarrassing.
In fact, it's not that the coalition forces have no solution at Hulao Pass, but that everyone is unwilling to contribute.
However, when the news of Yuan Huai's murder spread to Hulao Pass, both Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu could not sit still.
Yuan Huai was very good to both Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, and her feelings were very deep.
In addition, Yuan Huai is now the banner of the Yuan family in the imperial court.
This flag is now down like this.
It was also a huge blow to the Yuan family.
Yuan Shao immediately worried about the princes, his eyes were red and swollen, and there was murderous intent in his eyes. He held a long sword and was not polite at all. He said in a hoarse voice: "Today I personally command soldiers to attack the city. We will not withdraw our troops if we cannot capture Hulao. If you dare to neglect,
Anyone who does this will definitely be killed without mercy."
After saying that, Yuan Shao directly wielded his long sword and slashed the case in front of him.
Seeing Yuan Shao's appearance, he was really angry.
Many princes no longer dared to do anything but brought out their elite troops and powerful generals. This time the siege force was very different from before.
Immediately under Hulao Pass there was a cry of killing, and murderous intent soared into the sky.
However, the terrain of Hulao Pass is dangerous, and it is a key point. It is sandwiched between two mountains and has a defensive formation to help it.
Even if Yuan Shao personally risked his own bullets, it still took him two days to capture Hulao Pass.
This was because Wei Yan received news from Liu Bei, asking him to let the coalition troops enter the pass.
Otherwise, with Wei Yan's ability and Guo Si's, it would not be difficult to defend for several days.
However, it is no longer necessary.
Because not only Liu Bei was marching towards Luoyang on the Jingzhou side, but the prepared army on the Nanyang side was also heading straight for Luoyang from Yique Pass led by Guan Yu.
It can be said that this time Jingzhou deployed almost 80% of its strength.
Of the 150,000 troops, except for 50,000 who stayed behind, all the 100,000 troops marched into Luoyang.
The captain of Yiqueguan was also a native of Jingzhou, so he naturally entered Sili territory without any difficulty.
Therefore, when Yuan Shao defeated Hulao Pass and marched to Luoyang with Cao Cao as the leader.
Liu Bei has already made peace with Guan Yu, and a hundred thousand troops have garrisoned Luoyang City.
During this period, Dong Zhuo never thought of escaping.
He even wanted to carry Luoyang's wealth westward to Chang'an.
However, Chen Yuan had arranged everything long ago, and with the backstabbing of Jia Xu and Li Ru, Dong Zhuo did not escape in the end.
He was blocked by Liu Bei at the gate of Luoyang City.
Dong Zhuo stood at the top of Luoyang City, looking at the 100,000 troops under the city and the huge Liu Ziqi with a solemn expression.
At this time, Dong Zhuo was not as crazy as in history because of Chen Yuan's various methods.
Apart from killing some ministers, he didn't do anything outrageous.
It’s not that I don’t want to do it, it’s that I don’t dare to do it and can’t do it.
After all, both Jia Xu and Li Ru were stabbed in the back, so it would not be easy for Dong Zhuo to do anything.
Moreover, the scene when Chen Yuan killed Zhang Rang with a single sword strike that day made Dong Zhuo extremely frightened.
Dong Zhuo looked at Liu Bei and felt very wronged.
I didn't do anything, I just killed a few ministers. It was enough for others to oppose me. Why did you, Liu Bei, oppose me too?
Isn't this what you want to do?
You should support me, Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo shouted to Liu Bei: "Liu Bei, your commander-in-chief's army is besieging Luoyang. What do you want to do? Do you want to rebel?"
Dong Zhuo was not a fool. He put the hat on Liu Bei first and then tried to win a moral victory for himself.
However, Liu Bei didn't pay attention to Dong Zhuo's tricks.
At this time, Liu Bei already had the momentum and courage of a hero.
Liu Bei sat on the horse and looked at Zixiong: "Dong Zhongying, you have gone against the grain, killed loyal people, harmed the people, and deposed the emperor. It is a heinous crime that cannot be forgiven. Today, Liu Bei, I, Liu Bei, punished the people and punished the thieves under the emperor's order. If you still have a hint of repentance,
You should tie yourself up in front of the city gate so that you can still preserve the family sacrifices, otherwise it will be too late to regret everything under the influence of the army."
Good guy, Liu Bei is not the Liu Bei he was before.
This kind of talk about occupying the moral high ground comes out of your mouth.
In fact, Liu Bei also thought so.
In Liu Bei's view, or in other words, in the view of Liu Bei, anyone who deposes the emperor is heinous.
Because who will be the emperor is a matter for the Liu family. How can outsiders participate or even manipulate it.
Dong Zhuo was almost angered to death by Liu Bei's words.
Grandma, there is no good thing in the Liu family.
However, Dong Zhuo was not a vegetarian for being able to reach this point. Naturally, he could not surrender because of Liu Bei's words. He still had to fight.
Besides, Dong Zhuo's generals Li Jue, Hua Xiong, and Zhang Jike were all there.
Historically, Zhang Ji was not in Luoyang, but was plundering people outside.
However, history has changed, and the entire Xiliang Army, except for Niu Fu who was stationed in Huayin, is basically here in Luoyang.
On Niu Fu's side, Chen Yuan can only make arrangements and cannot run away.
Although the Xiliang Army has poor military discipline, its overall strength is still very strong. It would be a pity if they were all killed in one go.
Such an army with poor military discipline cannot be used in a civil war, but it can be used in foreign conquests.
And if used well, it is still a very powerful fighting force.
In the future, these armies will be the armies of the imperial court, and some of them can be preserved.
Anyway, the goal is to kill as few people as possible.
Seeing that Dong Zhuo did not want to surrender, Jia Xu and Li Ru were a little anxious.
In this case, if you don't surrender, you'll give me a slap in the face.
Even though Luoyang's army is no less than Liu Bei's outside army, except for the Xiliang Army, no other army here is trusted.
Who knows, how many people Chen Yuan has infiltrated into these armies.
When the war begins, it's hard to say whether these armies will fight themselves or Liu Bei.
Liu Bei did not want to attack the city, because even if there were chess pieces planted by Chen Yuan in the city, the tens of thousands of Xiliang troops under Dong Zhuo were still a powerful fighting force. Once they broke out, the damage to Luoyang would be immeasurable.
If you can't attack the city, don't attack it.
So Liu Bei waited at the foot of Luoyang City and tried to attack a few times. However, the Xiliang army was good at fighting, but it had no great effect and resulted in many casualties.
Ever since, Liu Bei waited quietly.
He was not in a hurry at all.
He was very stable in his heart.
He knew that this big game still lacked some protagonists and supporting roles.
Chen Yuan has not arrived, and neither have the princes outside Hulao Pass.
Only when everyone has arrived can the drama begin.
