Chapter 42
"However, now that Yuan Shao is the leader of the Kwantung Army, we must prevent the aristocratic families in Luoyang from cooperating with others." Li Ru said slowly to Dong Zhuo with a gloomy face.

After hearing this, Dong Zhuo became less angry, and said impatiently: "There are so many families in Luoyang like ants, why don't we kill them all?"

hehe!Li Ru smiled with a sullen face and said, "My lord, of course you can't kill them all. You only need to punish the leader of the villain. At that time, all the big and small families in Luoyang city are afraid of him. How dare you cooperate with the Kwantung Army?"

Dong Zhuo nodded suddenly after hearing this, and said, "Haha! Our family has long disliked the Yuan family. If that is the case, let's start with the Yuan family of four generations and three fathers."

Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, who were in Hulao Pass, didn't know it, because the alliance of other princes brought disaster to their family.

This is the benefit of mastering military power in troubled times. Talking and laughing can actually decide the fate of a family. I don't know how many heads will fall!In troubled times, people are inferior to dogs. Whether you are aristocrats or ordinary people, you only need a word from the superior to decide your fate.

The news of the alliance of the Kwantung Allied Forces had just reached Luoyang today. When all the Chinese and military officials in Luoyang City were eagerly watching Dong Zhuo's fate, a sudden burst of bad news came.

The Yuan family of four generations and three princes was killed by nine clans for colluding with the Kwantung rebellion.Because of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's actions, the Yuan family can be said to be a dog and a dog!
After receiving the news, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were all trembling, fearing that the next family would be their turn to be decapitated.

Dong Zhuo then ordered Li Jue to guard Chang'an, while his son-in-law Niu Fu and Li Su guarded Luoyang.Qiushui Lu Bu was ordered to be the vanguard, carrying 19 soldiers and 20 troops from his headquarters, and headed for Hulao Pass in a mighty way.

And Dong Zhuo led [-] Xiliang elites, also headed for Hulao Pass.

In addition to Xu Rong's 30 army guarding Hulao Pass, Dong Zhuo gathered an army of [-] for a while, shaking the court and the opposition.

At this time, Hulao Pass has become a place of common concern in the world. A battle involving millions of troops is about to be revealed. Who will win and who will lose?
Xu Rong watched nervously in front of Hulao Pass, the eighteenth princes had set up their camp, and the tents were boundless, even Xu Rong, who was proficient in the art of war, was full of a kind of feeling when facing such a large army. Powerlessness.Fortunately, the military order was received today, and Dong Zhuo's army will arrive soon.

And the princes of the Eighteenth Route gathered in a battalion to discuss how to attack Hulao Pass.Hulao Pass, as the most powerful pass in the world, is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is obvious to all. No one wants to waste their troops in vain, and no one complains about being the first bird.

"Report, leader, received a secret report that Dong Zhuo has led an army of 25 generals under his tent, and will arrive at Hulao Pass in a few days."

boom!After hearing the words of the messengers under the tent, there was a sudden chaos in the camp. After all, the elites of Xiliang are everywhere in the world, and only Gongsun Zan of Youzhou's Baima Yi can compare with him, but the soldiers and horses under the tents of other princes are also slightly inferior. .

Snapped!Yuan Shao looked at the panic-stricken camp, slammed down the desk, and said loudly: "Everyone, we have an army of more than [-], are you still afraid of Dong Bandit's mere [-]?"

The other princes also became quiet after hearing Yuan Shao's words, thinking that it is true, our alliance now has more than [-] troops, more than twice the enemy's army, how could we be defeated.

The princes were also a little shocked when they heard the news. After all, the princes of the 25th Route have only assembled an army of more than 28, and Dong Zhuo has gathered an army of about [-] by himself. There were [-] defenders, and there were [-] troops at one time.The princes were also shocked for a moment.

Cao Cao stood up with a serious face and said: "Leader, everyone, Dong Zhuo's army should not be underestimated. Although there are [-] soldiers and horses left behind by General He Jin, they fought south and north during the Yellow Turban Rebellion. It doesn't need Xiliang army, but it is also extraordinary."

Then he took two steps and said, "However, there are two peerless military generals under Dong Thief's account, both of whom are generals in the Ten Thousand Armies, and they are the generals who take the head of a general, so we should be careful with them!"

"Meng De, don't exaggerate and make others prestige. Don't we have any existence in the tent of heroes from all walks of life that can match him?" Gongsun Zan stood displeased when he heard Cao Cao say how great the generals under Dong Zhuo's tent were. Come out and interrupt Cao Cao's words.

"That's right, I also have General Fang Yue under my tent."

"That's right, that's right, all the generals under my account are no worse than that thief Dong."

All of a sudden, the princes from all walks of life praised how grand and mighty the generals under his tent were.

Yuan Shao watched the chaos in the camp like a vegetable market, slapped down the desk with a sullen face, and said: "Quiet, quiet, everyone, don't underestimate Dong Bandit, if Dong Bandit is so unbearable... , How could he occupy Luoyang and take the emperor with him?"

Immediately after seeing the quiet big tent, Yuan Shao looked at Cao Cao hopefully and said, "Meng De, please tell me the situation in Dong Bandit's army slowly. After all, knowing yourself and the enemy is the only way to be invincible."

After Cao Cao heard Yuan Shao's words, he nodded slightly, looked around at the princes in the tent, and said with a serious face: "Everyone, I am not exaggerating the enemy. I think everyone is familiar with the Xiliang tiger Qiushui under Dong Zhuo's tent."

After hearing this, the princes nodded slightly to indicate that, indeed, Xiliang Tiger has a good reputation. It is rumored that this person is born with supernatural powers, can tear tigers and leopards with his arms, and is good at using a Fangtian painted halberd. The Qiang people suffered a lot.

"The Xiliang tiger is no worse than the legends, even stronger. Except for this person, Dong Zhuo and Bingzhou Inspector Ding Yuan surrendered Lu Bu, who is known as a flying general in Bingzhou. This person is no better than the Xiliang tiger. Difference."

Cao Cao looked at the serious expressions on the faces of the princes, and said gloomyly: "A few days ago, I received a secret report from the city of Luoyang that Lu Bu in Bingzhou had a five-hundred-round battle with Xiliang tigers, but after that, Lu Bu unexpectedly I personally told all the generals under my command that I am not as good as the Xiliang Tiger, so it can be seen that these two are the strongest under Dong Zhuo's tent."

After the other princes heard Cao Cao's words, they all pondered. After all, the shadow of the famous tree, the flying general of Bingzhou, and the fierce tiger of Xiliang can be said to have earned their reputations in the frontier, how could they be weak.

Especially Gongsun Zan, Youzhou and Bingzhou are connected, and the name of the flying general of Bingzhou has long been impatient, and he has long wanted to learn.

Especially the three people standing behind Gongsun Zan, one with a red face, one with a black face, and the third one is even more peculiar, with ears hanging from his shoulders and arms reaching to his knees, he is simply a replica of an ape.

Especially the red-faced one, after hearing the princes discuss how brave the Xiliang Tigers and Bingzhou Flying Generals are, there was a flash of contempt in his eyes, his face was full of complacency, and he thought to himself, in the future, these two people will be my swordsmen. Revenant, so that you can make your own name.

Needless to say, these three are Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei who were sworn brothers in Taoyuan.

report!A soldier ran into the tent in a panic and knelt down on one knee in front of Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao asked curiously, "What's the matter?"

The pawn did not dare to raise his nervous head in a panic, and stammered: "My lord, upon receiving the news from Luoyang, Dong Zhuo has executed the whole family of Yuan's family, the fourth generation and the third lord, and now the head of the old master has been locked up."

puff!After Yuan Shao heard the report from his soldiers, his face flushed with anger, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and fainted to the ground.

"Leader, lord!"

When Yuan Shao was lifted up by the princes and slowly woke up, he roared angrily: "Old thief Dong Zhuo, I will never die with you."

"Leader calm down, leader calm down." After seeing Yuan Shao's expression, the princes comforted with worry, but they didn't know whether they were genuinely worried or took pleasure in misfortune.

It turned out that when the Allied forces were discussing, Dong Zhuo had already led the army to Hulao Pass and was ready to go.

After the tiger prison was closed, Xu Rong cupped his fists respectfully at the rushing Dong Zhuo and said, "The final general will see the lord."

"Excuse me, is there any news about the rebellion in the Kanto region?" Dong Zhuo asked worriedly as he stood on the Hulao Pass and looked at the endless camps in the distance.

"My lord, now the vassals of the Eighteen Routes have gathered, and they will attack the checkpoint soon." Xu Rong also had the courage at this time, and the reinforcements arrived. With an army of 20, Xu Rong is sure that he can hold on to Hulao Pass, and he will wait for the Kwantung Allied Army to retreat when the time comes.

But Dong Zhuo didn't think so, Dong Zhuo still wanted to rub the prestige of the Kwantung Allied Forces.

Li Ru also saw the expression in Dong Zhuo's eyes at this moment, and knew what his father-in-law wanted to do, so he quickly persuaded him: "Master, our army has just arrived at Hulao Pass, and we are short of men and horses. After taking a rest for a day, we can go to fight outside the pass tomorrow." , the prestige of the Esau Allied Forces, when our army's morale is soaring, and the benefits of the pass, how can we be afraid of the Kwantung Allied Forces."

After Dong Zhuo heard this, he slapped the battlements with both hands, and said in a hateful voice: "Let's let these traitors go today, and tomorrow we will make these traitors look good, hmph!" After finishing speaking, Dong Zhuo snorted coldly and looked deeply The camp of the Kanto princes.

When Dong Zhuo was about to go down the tower, he suddenly thought of something, and said to Hua Xiong, "Hang up the head of the Yuan family's rebellion on the top of the wall for our family, and I want to see how the little boy Yuan Shao will react, hahaha! "After that, he laughed and walked down the tower.

Li Ru also smiled sinisterly, and followed Dong Zhuo.

Seeing Dong Zhuo leave, Qiu Shui said to Lu Bu beside him heavily, "Brother Feng Xian, don't underestimate the heroes of the Kwantung Army tomorrow."

"General, the Kwantung Army is just a bunch of rats, what can they do?" Hua Xiong stood up unwillingly and said proudly.Hua Xiong himself only admired Qiu Shui in terms of martial arts, but after meeting Lu Bu, there was only one more person. How could other people fall into Hua Xiong's eyes.

Qiu Shui stared straight at Hua Xiong with cold eyes, and Hua Xiong's heart trembled at the sight of Qiu Shui's cold eyes.

And Lu Bu was also a little puzzled: "Could there be any masters in the Kwantung Army?"

Only then did Qiu Shui turn his gaze away, Hua Xiong let out a long breath, after all Hua Xiong was shocked by the power of the Xiliang tiger, and was even more afraid of Qiu Shui.Recalling the indifferent eyes that looked at the dead just now, Hua Xiong felt a chill in his heart.
