Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 87 Dong Zhuo is coming?

Although these days because of the advantage of defending the city, the casualties of the Yellow Turban Army are far higher than that of the Han Army, but at this time Lu Zhi's frowning brows showed no sign of relaxing.

The reason is very simple. After more than 20 days of fierce battles, the regular army of the Han in Yecheng has dropped to 40, and the rest are only 13 to [-] rebels who cannot guarantee combat power.Although the Yellow Turban Army suffered more casualties, there are still more than [-] Yellow Turban soldiers, and these do not even include the more than [-] elite Yellow Turbans.

During these days, more than 20, or even close to 30 corpses from both sides were buried under Yecheng.

Moreover, under the continuous bloody battle, the big Han has become a tired army, but the Yellow Turban Army has a large number of people, and they take turns to fight. The situation is much better than that of the big Han.Coupled with the ordinary soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army, after the bloody battle, their combat power has been significantly improved. Although they are still not as good as the Han Army, they are much stronger than before the Yellow Turban Army.

And Li Xiang was also very puzzled, the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army did not collapse with such huge casualties.As everyone knows, this time Zhang Jiao spent a lot of money. In order to boost morale, he took out a lot of property looted by the Yellow Turban Army time and time again.

At critical moments these days, even the cavalry from both sides dismounted for a time and climbed onto the city wall to fight.

The Han side lost [-] troops, so naturally Li Xiang couldn't be alone.Of the [-] cavalry brought from Bingzhou, nearly [-] will never return to Bingzhou.

Of the five thousand cavalry who died in battle, some died on the city wall, but more died in the raid planned by Xue Rengui.But there is no way around this. The Jinglan troops of the Yellow Turban Army have caused too much trouble to Yecheng, and it is impossible not to solve it.

In fact, until now, both sides of this great battle have been somewhat unable to survive.

Needless to say, the Han army, according to this trend, may wipe out the remaining 10 people, and may not be able to defend Yecheng.At that time, the Yellow Turban of Jizhou will be able to reach Sili directly, threatening the land of the imperial capital of Luoyang.

But now the land of Sili is full of elite soldiers and strong generals, so how can the remaining newly formed troops resist the yellow scarf soldiers who have gone through several bloody battles and their morale is high.

As for the Yellow Turbans, even though Zhang Jiao took out the looted treasures time and time again and allocated the lands of those powerful families to boost morale, under such huge casualties, the Yellow Turbans had to take a break to wait for the future. Japanese War.

In the conference hall of Ye City, except for a few generals who continued to guard the city wall to prevent the Yellow Turban army from suddenly attacking.The rest of the principals gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

All the people present are the princes who will sit in the future and resound for a while, how can they not see the current situation clearly.If it continues like this, the situation in Yecheng is worrying, and the situation in Dahan is worrying.

It's just that everyone knows that they know that there is nothing they can do. This is the gap in hard power that is the most difficult to make up.

The people present were helpless about the current situation, so the atmosphere in the hall was silent for a while.

After a long time, it was Gongsun Zan, who was still young and energetic, who spoke first, "Teacher, our army is outnumbered, and the situation is really unfavorable for our army. I wonder if the imperial court will send reinforcements?"

Hearing this, Lu Zhi's face was happy at first, but then he seemed to think of something, frowned again, and sighed, "The imperial court has indeed sent another support soldier, it is Dong Zhuo, the prefect of Hedong, who is now The [-] Xiliang iron cavalry led by us may have already entered the border of Jizhou."

After hearing Dong Zhuo's name, Li Xiang was slightly taken aback, well, another person who made great efforts to completely bury the big man is about to appear.

Speaking of which, this Dong Zhuo is not as stupid as described in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, forcibly destroying a good deck of cards. The real Dong Zhuo is not simple.

Dong Zhuo was born in a rich and powerful local family.At that time, Min County was a remote area, adjacent to the Qiang people's residence in Northwest China.Dong Zhuo was pampered and pampered since he was a child, and he formed an indulgent, willful, rough and fierce character in his youth.

When Dong Zhuo was young, he traveled to the places where the Qiang people lived. Relying on his powerful background and rich assets as a landlord, he often interacted with the chiefs of the Qiang tribe.Dong Zhuo is not only physically strong and powerful, but also proficient in martial arts. He can ride a horse and can shoot left and right with two bows and arrows.His savage and fierce character and strong and powerful physique made the local people fear him three points.Not only did the villagers dare not provoke him, but the surrounding Qiang people also did not dare to neglect him in the slightest.

In order to protect himself, Hao Shuai, the leader of the Qiang nationality, tried his best to cater to Dong Zhuo and made friends with him in order to live in peace for the time being.Local marshals often came to visit with a large number of livestock and property, and called Dong Zhuo brother and brother.

Dong Zhuo was very familiar with the situation there. Seeing that the Qiang people feared him so much, he thought about how to use and control them, cultivate and recruit cronies among the Qiang people, and lay the foundation for his long-term development in the future.Therefore, under the drive of ambition, Dong Zhuo did not hesitate to spend his own property. Whenever the Qiang people came to visit, he would kill cattle and goats to entertain the Qiang people in order to gain their support and support for him.

In addition to making friends with the Qiang people, Dong Zhuo also paid attention to maintaining his status and influence among the local tyrants. With his extraordinary talent, he wooed and merged other forces to continuously consolidate and expand his own power.He often plays the role of a knight-errant hero, and enjoys the reputation of "Jianxia" in the local area.At the same time, Dong Zhuo also recruited a large number of frustrated and down-and-out rogues. They were moved by Dong Zhuo's loyalty and followed him wholeheartedly.

It can be seen from this that Dong Zhuo is by no means as stupid and brainless as described in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but Dong Zhuo is quite a shrewd person.Dong Zhuo may lack great wisdom, but he definitely has a lot of little cleverness, otherwise he would not be able to control the Han court with the Xiliang cavalry.

Although it seemed that Li Xiang had thought a lot during this period, in reality it was just a fleeting moment.

"Since that's the case, it's a great joy. With Governor Dong's [-] Xiliang iron cavalry, the pressure on our army will be relieved a lot. I don't know why the teacher is so sad?" Gongsun Zan asked curiously.

It seems that Gongsun Zan heard that reinforcements were coming, but the authorities were lost.Li Xiang thought silently.

"The general is probably worried that Governor Dong will not be able to break through the blockade of the Yellow Turban Army and enter Yecheng." It was Li Xiang who spoke first.

Hearing this, all the people present were concentrating on hearing that the reinforcements were coming.

It's okay to put this matter at the right time, after all, Yuan Shao, Liu Yu, and Li Xiang could all break a bloody path by surprise and enter Ye City smoothly.

But those who have seen Chi You's fierce power these days will not be so murderous.With Chi You on the side of the Yellow Turban, Dong Zhuo would be lucky if he could survive Chi You, let alone enter Yecheng.
