Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 801 This is not your time alone

Chapter 799: This is not your time alone

If Dong Zhuo had a chance to do it all over again, he would definitely not have so many worries. Even if he lost both sides, he would have to kill Qin Hao first, so as not to give him the opportunity to call on the princes to crusade against him.

It's a pity that it's too late to say anything now. The 55 Kwantung Allied Forces are ready to go, and they may attack Hulao Pass at any time. Another shocking war is inevitable.

"My lord, Liu Yan mobilized heavy troops in the northern part of Yizhou and had a faint plan to invade Hanzhong. Qin Wen also deployed a large number of troops at the junction of Bingliang, and Ma Teng and Han Sui in Liangzhou are also ready to move..."

Li Ru said with a serious face, and the situation facing the Liang army now is indeed extremely critical, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the enemy of the whole world.

Dong Zhuo's expression turned pale when he heard the words. He was not surprised that Qin Wen would sink to the border. After all, Qin Hao, the leader of the coalition army, was Qin Wen's son, but Liu Yan, a cowardly rat, dared to provoke him. Some of them can't bear it anymore.

Of course, it was Ma Teng and Han Sui who made Dong Zhuo most angry. He knew that these two scourges should not have been kept in the first place.

Dong Zhuo slapped the table angrily, his tiger eyes seemed to be on fire, and said in a deep voice: "They want to use this to contain our army's strength, so that our army cannot use all its strength to fight the coalition army. It is extremely vicious. Military division , My son-in-law, how can our army break this predicament?"

After Jia Xu and Li Ru looked at each other, Li Ru stood up and said in a deep voice, "My lord, it is not difficult to break the situation, you just need to stick to the Hulao pass, and you will only retreat when the princes' food is exhausted.

Just based on Sizhou's current strength, it would be extremely difficult to defend even with Luoyang's eight pass natural moats. The subordinates think that they should increase their troops as soon as possible. "

Although Dong Zhuo has an army of 50, he has to divide his troops to guard the territory of three and a half states. At this time, the four counties of Sizhou only have an army of 15. How can they be the opponent of the coalition army of 55 princes?
Dong Zhuo nodded subconsciously, and said: "My son-in-law thinks how many troops should be withdrawn is more appropriate than in the past?"

"Liangzhou 15, Guanzhong 30, Hanzhong [-], plus Sizhou [-], a total of [-] troops, this is also the limit that our army can mobilize. Adding the natural danger of the eight passes, it should be enough to fight against the allied forces of the Kanto princes." gone."

During the first battle of Hulaoguan, Dong Zhuo was one of Qin Wen's generals, and he also witnessed the whole process of that battle.

At that time, Qin Wen led 15 Han troops to defend the Hulao, while Zhang Jiao led a million troops, but they couldn't do anything.

Although Qin Wen gave up Hulao Pass in the end, it was because He Jin lost to Xiang Yu in the decisive battle of the Yellow River, which opened up the entire northern defense line of Sizhou, and Qin Wen had to give up Hulao Pass. Hulaoguan defensive problems.

Moreover, Hulao Pass has been destroyed twice, and its defenses have been rebuilt to be even stronger than before. Could it be that 30 troops can't stop the 55 coalition troops?
In addition, Dong Zhuo also has Li Yuanba, the most powerful general in the world, and four peerless generals Yuwen Chengdu, Lu Bu, Hou Yi, and Jia Fu, while the coalition only has Li Cunxiao, Ran Min and Gongsun Xuanyuan three.

Soldiers, generals, and Xiongguan all have an advantage here, so why can't we win this battle?
Thinking of this, Dong Zhuo finally smiled and said in a deep voice, "Let's mobilize troops according to what the virtuous son-in-law said. Keeping 20 troops to guard the territory is enough to make Qin Wen and others dare not move rashly."

Jia Xu stood up at this time and said in a deep voice: "My lord, besides mobilizing troops, the most important thing for our army at present should be to elect a general to lead the Sizhou army to fight against Qin Hao."

Dong Zhuo couldn't help being a little silent when he heard the words. Of course, he also wanted to be like Qin Wen back then, but the current situation of the Liang army is too bad. He has to stay in Chang'an Town to take care of the night. Once he leaves, some monsters and monsters will definitely appear to make trouble.

Besides, even if Dong Zhuo leads the army himself, he is better than the others. You must know that Qin Hao has not suffered a single defeat since he was in the army.

Dong Zhuo also didn't have the confidence to defeat Qin Hao, so he might as well sit in the center and hand over the army to someone who is more powerful than himself in commanding the army.

"The generals are chosen, and the miscellaneous family already has a good idea."

A gleam flashed in Dong Zhuo's eyes, and he said with a smile: "Li Shimin, the son-in-law of the miscellaneous family, once served as the leader of the 36th princes, and now Qin Hao is leading the [-]th princes to attack, so let Shimin, the former leader, come to meet Qin Hao. The current ally."

In today's Liang army, apart from Dong Zhuo who can lead an army of 30, only Li Shimin has this prestige. It can be seen that Dong Zhuo did not choose the wrong person.

"No matter how large the troops of the Kwantung princes are, they can't compare with the Yellow Turban Bandits back then. Although the situation our army is facing is very bad, it is much better than that of the Han army back then. Therefore, Zajia believes that as long as our Liang army is united, the victory will definitely be It belongs to my Liang army."

Dong Zhuo's arrogance also infected all the generals in Liangzhou, and they all shouted in unison: "We must win, we must win..."

Dong Zhuo nodded in satisfaction, and then issued an order: "The order goes on, and Li Shimin will be crowned as the General of Zhengdong, responsible for commanding the [-]th army of Sizhou to fight against the coalition forces of the Kwantung princes.

Li Yuan was granted the title of Marquis of Tang and Inspector of Yongzhou;
Conferring Yang Jian as Marquis of Sui and Governor of Sizhou;
Feng Li Jue..."

All the generals in Liangzhou were on Dong Zhuo's list of rewards, and Dong Zhuo's big rewards before the war was naturally to improve the morale of the generals under his command.

Sure enough, the effect of awarding rewards was quite good. Some people were frightened by the terrifying number of 55, but after awarding rewards, they no longer had the slightest fear.

Li Yuan and Yang Jian, the two governors who benefited the most from the reward this time, and the reason why Dong Zhuo didn't make them state shepherds was to avoid Liu Xiu's rebellion from happening again. After all, the power of the state shepherd is greater than that of the governor. a lot.

Hanzhong.

After Li Shimin received Dong Zhuo's edict, a complex look flashed in his eyes.

"Brother Zixu, I didn't expect that we would face off on the battlefield so soon."

Li Shimin looked at the east, and whispered to himself: "A few years ago, I could only stand behind you and watch you become famous all over the battlefield.

Now I can finally be your opponent and stand in front of you on an equal footing.

Brother Zixu, you have been the leader for too long, and now I want to let you know that this is not your era alone. "

Li Shimin took a deep breath, and immediately summoned the civil and military officials under his command. In the lobby, Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui, Chai Shao, Qu Tutong, Zhang Gongjin, Hou Junji, Liu Hongji and other civil and military officials lined up one by one. They can be called talents. ample.

"Dong Gong ordered me to be the commander of the 30 army to fight against the coalition of the Kwantung princes. After I lead the [-] elite army to leave, Li Xiaogong should be the leader in Hanzhong affairs. Remember to strictly prevent Liu Yan from attacking Hanzhong."

"promise."

　I've been too busy with work recently, so I really don't have time for more updates, so I can only maintain it at the point of one update a day. I will try my best to add more updates after I have been busy for a while.
