"Benchu, why are you retreating!?" In the coalition tent, Cao Cao glared at Yuan Shao. All the coalition princes had different intentions, including Yuan Shao. Cao Cao knew this very well. But he never expected that Yuan Shao would actually
Will he choose to retreat when hundreds of thousands of troops have already attacked outside Hulao Pass and are only one step away from success? Even if Yuan Shao does not consider the Han Dynasty, this is still a great opportunity to build a career for himself and make a name for himself. Is it possible?
Is Yuan Shao indifferent to all this?
"Mengde..." Yuan Shao himself felt a little guilty and did not dare to look directly into Cao Cao's eyes, he hesitated and said, "You also know that Hulao Pass is the most powerful pass of our Han Dynasty. Although our army is large, the number of Dong Zhuo's army is
Quite a few. If we attack the pass by force, even if the pass is broken, our hundreds of thousands of troops will probably be killed or injured."
Cao Cao was completely disappointed. He didn't expect that his childhood friend would turn out to be so useless when he grew up. Yes, Cao Cao had always thought that he was richer and more talented than Yuan Shao, but he never expected that Yuan Shao would
It's so bad.
"Yuan Jiujiu! Come out!" Just when Cao Cao was still about to rebuke each other, a roar like a thunderbolt suddenly came from outside the tent.
I saw a tall man with a height of more than eight feet, a burly face, and exuding a heroic aura as he walked into the military tent with his head held high, followed by three well-appeared generals. Needless to say, the leader was naturally Sun Jian, who followed
Behind him were Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang.
Sun Jian asked for orders to fight Hua Xiong this time. He was originally very ambitious and planned to make great achievements, and the battle situation was as smooth as he originally expected. Seeing that Hua Xiong's army was about to be crippled by him, he did not
I thought that at this time, Yuan Shu, who was in charge of the food and fodder of the coalition forces, unexpectedly dropped his chain and hindered him. He did not give himself a grain of food for several days, which caused the morale of the army to fluctuate. In the end, Hua Xiong saw the flaw and seized the opportunity to attack the camp at night and attack the enemy.
A great victory was achieved. In order to cover Sun Jian's escape, Zu Mao, Sun Jian's confidant, used his body as a bait to attract Hua Xiong's attention and died tragically, which made Sun Jian resentful.
Sun Jian naturally hated Yuan Shu, the instigator of such a result, to the bottom of his heart. Sun Jian had been wanting to hold Yuan Shu accountable these days, but for the sake of the overall situation, he resisted the urge. When the coalition forces withdrew from Hulao Pass today, everyone
Wei Zhuzhi analyzed Sun Jian and said that Yuan Shao was too suspicious and decisive. The great opportunity to conquer Hulao Pass was right in front of him but he did not cherish it. The coalition must be disbanded soon. After hearing this, Sun Jian thought it was reasonable. Anyway, the coalition could not achieve great things, so then
Why did he have any scruples in his heart, so he immediately brought his three generals to question Yuan Shu.
"Dong Zhuo and I have no enmity at all, but now I have raised 30,000 elite troops to obey the order of the leader of the alliance and fight to the death with Hua Xiong in front of the Sishui Pass. It is not to support the country and the country and to reflect the great justice of the world! But you have been slow to send me food and grass.
Even though I sent envoys several times to ask for food, you turned a blind eye. Yuan Gongdao, what are your intentions!?" Yuan Shucai walked out slowly, and Sun Jian pointed at the tip of his nose and cursed.
Just like Yuan Shao felt guilty in front of Cao Cao, Yuan Shu also felt guilty when facing Sun Jian. Although he was very angry that Sun Jian revealed this matter in front of many princes and yelled at him, he had no other choice.
Fa. He knew Sun Jian's temper very well. Although he did not lack resourcefulness, he would definitely be reckless if he was really impulsive. This time I pushed Sun Jian too far. What if he really fell out with me in public here?
, the one who suffered the loss was himself. At this moment, Yuan Shu could only say to Sun Jian with a smile: "Wentai, please calm down. It's all my fault for misunderstanding the traitor's lies, which caused you to suffer such a defeat. I will immediately go and arrest the person who made the remarks."
Beheading, I hope Wen Tai will forgive me."
After saying this, Yuan Shu immediately ordered the soldiers around him to behead the man and presented his head to Sun Jian.
When Sun Jian saw this, he was still angry, but it was hard to get angry. Yuan Shu completely shied away the responsibility and killed the "culprit" "without any favoritism". What other excuse could he find to make trouble? More
What's more, the leader of the alliance here is still Yuan Shu, his elder brother. Although the relationship between the two brothers is not very close, there is no guarantee that Yuan Shao will not favor Yuan Shu. Then he will be in an embarrassing situation. Therefore, Sun Jian said nothing more and snorted coldly,
Turn around and leave.
After Cao Cao watched the whole process from the side, he could only sigh helplessly. It seems that the anti-Dong alliance is really not far away from being disbanded.
————————————————————————————————It is said that although the coalition forces have no intention of attacking Hulao Pass, Dong Zhuo is still trembling.
After coming to Li Julius for discussion, he decided to move the capital from Luoyang to Chang'an to avoid the aggression of the Guandong princes. So that night Dong Zhuo led the army from Hulao Pass back to Luoyang, and then took the emperor and all the civil and military officials hostage and rushed to Chang'an. Anyone who opposed the move of the capital was
They were all treated as Yuan Shao's accomplices and executed. Before leaving, Dong Zhuo ordered his soldiers to dig out the imperial mausoleum and set fire to the palace. After the fire spread, it was impossible to control it, and soon the entire city of Luoyang was engulfed in a sea of flames. Only the flames were visible.
Soaring into the sky, the dark night sky was illuminated extremely brightly. The imperial capital Luoyang became a hell on earth in an instant, with countless people running and shouting, and charred bones emitting stench can be seen everywhere on the roadside.
"Dong thief! How dare you do this!" Although Yuan Shao and others had no intention of fighting Dong Zhuo in order to preserve their strength, when they saw the fire raging in the direction of Luoyang, they all changed their colors. Even those stationed outside Hulao Pass changed their minds.
The Kwantung Allied Forces could clearly see the fire in Luoyang City, which shows how intense the fire has reached. I am afraid that even if they reach Luoyang City now, what will be left to Yuan Shao and the others will only be ruins.
"Quick! March to Luoyang!" Since Dong Zhuo was so determined to burn Luoyang, it means that he must have given up Luoyang City and fled elsewhere. Yuan Shao was still very angry at Dong Zhuo's act of burning Luoyang City at first, but
Then I thought about it, as long as I led the troops into Luoyang City, then the great credit for forcing Dong Zhuo away would fall on me, and the Kwantung Allied Forces would be considered a success, and everyone would be happy.
Although Yuan Shao did not reveal the secret joy in his heart on the surface, Cao Cao, who had a close relationship with him, only took a brief look at Yuan Shao's expression at this time and had a general understanding of his thoughts at this time.
"There is really no cure." This is the first time Cao Cao has said this in his heart. If he could have fought hard to win Hulao Pass, how could Luoyang City have suffered such a disaster? Now Luoyang has become
A dilapidated and empty city, Yuan Shaocai became interested in raising troops to enter the city, and regarded this as an immortal achievement. He was really stubborn and ignorant. This time the coalition forces launched a large-scale attack, in addition to killing a Hua Xiong and indirectly causing the loss of Luoyang City.
What other achievements could there be besides being burned to the ground? Dong's thieves were still as rampant and violent as before. The emperor and all the officials were still firmly controlled by Dong's thieves, and the situation still did not change much.
