Chapter 1099 The Battle of Tongguan IV

The coalition forces of the princes are approaching, and the Xiliang army is also forming a formation.

Among Tongguan.

"My lord, I just got the news that the allied forces of the lords have already begun to march. They counted their troops around, first occupied some Yellow River ferries, and then camped on the north bank of the Yellow River, and some of the main force are approaching Tongguan!"

"Continue to investigate, a certain family wants the most detailed information!"

"promise!"

The scouts led the way.

"Wenyou!" Dong Zhuo suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said, "When shall we move?"

"It's better to be still than to move!"

Li Ru shook his head: "It's not the time yet. Waiting for three days, waiting for their main force to cross our set line, before making a move. Either don't fight or fight. We will never give them a chance to react. We have given up a lot , to create this battlefield centered on Tongguan, the purpose is to fight against the fear of the princes of the world, so as to show the demeanor of the lord, and wherever the Xiliang army goes in the future, the world will be afraid!"

"Hahaha!"

The happier Dong Zhuoyue thought about it, he said, "Okay, I'll listen to you!"

At this time, a good news came.

"My lord, Jia Xu has escorted His Majesty, and passed Huayin smoothly!" A soldier reported in Li Ru's ear, and after Li Ru heard about it, he waved his hand to let him go, and then personally reported to Dong Zhuo: "It is estimated that at noon today, you will be able to leave." Arrived at Tongguan!"

"it is good!"

Dong Zhuo was overjoyed suddenly, he thought for a while and asked: "Then who is accompanying His Majesty?"

"There are quite a few ministers in the court, among them Situ Wangyun!"

"That old man is here too?" Dong Zhuo said with a gloomy face.

"How could Wang Situ allow His Majesty to conquest without following him? He is concerned about His Majesty's safety, and it is already a concession to allow His Majesty to come to Tongguan. It is estimated that he will not give in because he dare not fight us to the death, but he will not rest assured. Naturally, he will follow!" Li Ru was not surprised by this, a Wang Yun, who has no strength to restrain a chicken, no soldiers, no one, in the army, he can't afford to make trouble.

"This old man has never been used to seeing a certain family. He came here in person, so a certain family is not at ease with him!"

Dong Zhuo stood up and asked, "Can you get rid of him!"

If he was in Chang'an, he wouldn't ask this question. After all, the influence is too great, and he has not fully controlled the influence of the government, so he would try not to touch Wang Yun as much as possible.

"No!"

Li Ru thought for a while, shook his head, and said softly: "We let the Son of Heaven personally conscript, which has dissatisfied many people, but they are still restrained, just thinking that we still have a bottom line, once we kill Wang Yun immediately, then Even if we force these royal ministers to fight us, we wouldn’t be afraid of them in the past, but now it’s the time when we are fighting with all the princes, and it will affect the outcome of this battle in the slightest. One more thing is worse than one less thing!”

"It makes sense!"

Dong Zhuo thought for a while, and thought what Li Ru said was reasonable, so he said, "Then spare him his life first, and he will be punished sooner or later!"

"Lord!"

At this time, another fast horse rushed into the camp, and a scout, bowing his head under Dong Zhuo, reported loudly, "Report from the Western Front!"

"West Line?"

When Dong Zhuo heard this, his face was stern, and he personally took the report from the scouts, opened it, and his face turned pale immediately: "Waste, they are all a bunch of waste!"

"what happened?"

Li Ru was a little startled, and asked quickly.

"Han Sui is defeated!"

Dong Zhuo gritted his teeth and said: "Just three days ago, he was slaughtered by the army under his command, almost completely slaughtered by the Mu army. The west of Guanzhong is like opening a gate, and Chang'an will not be able to defend it!"

"what?"

Li Ru couldn't help but change his face slightly. He asked: "Han Sui has more than 3 Jincheng Army. In terms of strength, he is not inferior to the Mu Army. Even if he can't beat the Mu Army, he will not be defeated so badly. What happened?" matter!"

"Look for yourself!" Dong Zhuo threw the memorial to Li Ru.

"Use your body as bait to attract troops to surround..."

Li Ru looked at it carefully, and found that the report was quite detailed, and it should have been learned by the people on the battlefield. Look at the signature, Yan, it should be written by Han Sui's general Yan Xing himself.

He took a deep breath, calmed down his agitation, and said to Dong Zhuo, "My lord, I'm afraid Chang'an will be lost!"

"It's a mistake!"

Dong Zhuo paced back and forth, feeling like a mountain was pressing down on his heart, he was a little out of breath: "I really didn't expect that Han Sui is so useless, if I knew it, I shouldn't use him!"

"I don't blame Han Wenyue for this battle!" Li Ru said in a low voice: "The main reason is that Mulongtu is too ruthless. He dares to use himself as a temptation. What a risk. Han Wenyue wants to kill him, so naturally he will be moved. Fang will fall into the trap, and now he himself has lost his life!"

"But our western front has been completely lost. Do we still need to fight this battle at Tongguan?" Dong Zhuo put his foot on the desk fiercely, smashing a desk to pieces, and then shouted angrily. A: "If you haven't fought, you've lost!"

"Not always!"

Li Ru said in a low voice: "If we didn't let His Majesty go north, maybe we really lost, but it's not necessarily the case now, my lord, we built Tongguan and stored a lot of food, grass and weapons in Tongguan, which is enough to support our army. Chang'an is lost, we have losses, and we can't hurt our vitality, and we have His Majesty in hand, where is the capital!"

"How about Mu Jun going north?"

Dong Zhuo's face looked a little pale: "It's not that a certain family is not confident, and a certain family is not afraid of the princes of the world, but we must not underestimate the Mu Jun. We were defeated by the Mu Jun several times back then. How much fighting power does the Mu Jun have? , we know!"

At this time, Dong Zhuo suddenly had a special feeling.

The cycle of heaven, the retribution is unhappy.

When the Mu army fought against the princes of the world, they hid behind themselves, and then ruthlessly stabbed their knives.

But now, when he was fighting against the princes of the world, Mu Jun hid behind his back, ready to stab him.

But Dong Zhuo didn't believe in retribution.

He cleared his mind, his face was as gloomy as ever, but with a touch of ferocity: "How about we go back to Chang'an and clean up the Mujun first!"

"No!"

Hearing this, Li Ru rejected Dong Zhuo's proposal, saying: "My lord, it's too late. We have been deployed in Tongguan for so long. Once we mobilize our troops, we will be defeated in all directions. At that time, we will be chased and beaten by all the princes. There are still thousands of miles away from Chang'an, and I am afraid that we will collapse directly, let alone whether we can go back to Chang'an, even if we can go back, we don't have many troops to deal with the Mu army!"

"But in today's environment, we are in a dilemma!" Dong Zhuo paced back and forth, with heavy steps, stomping the floor loudly.

"not necessarily!"

Li Ru said softly: "Master, I think we are safe!"

"How to say?"

"Even if Chang'an is lost, I don't think the Mu army will go north!"

"Why?"

"My lord, don't forget that we have enmity with the Mu army, but the princes in the world have enmity with the Mu army. They all participated in the war against the Mu army back then. Could it be possible to shake hands with the Mu family and make peace!"

Li Rudao: "Mulongtu is a kind-hearted person. At this time, if I were him, I would just wait for the result and watch the tiger fight!"

When Dong Zhuo heard the words, although he felt a little obedient, he somewhat agreed with Li Ru's words.

If he is Mujing.

I'm afraid they will sit back and watch the tigers fight instead of getting involved at this time. This time is the way to ensure the best interests of the Mu army.

"But even so, it's still hard to guarantee that Mrs. Mu won't go north!"

Dong Zhuo said: "Mulongtu has never been a person who follows the rules!"

"So we're going to talk!"

Li Ru said.

"Talk?" Dong Zhuo was a little puzzled.

"Send someone to talk to him. The purpose is to hold him back. As long as his determination is not stable, there is a chance for him to stand still!" Li Ru said: "And we have to make a quick decision, deal with the princes' army as soon as possible, and return to Chang'an!"

"He hates me to the bone, will he sit down and talk to us?" Dong Zhuo was puzzled.

"meeting!"

Li Rudao: "It's about profit, even the revenge of killing my father has to be put aside, he is not an ordinary person, he is Mu Jing, the current master of the Minghou Mansion, a prince in charge of the southwestern part of the world, the lord who is followed by countless people, there are many things , can no longer be determined by his emotions, I believe that he will not be impulsive, and the Minghou Mansion will not allow him to be impulsive!"
