I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 524, Liu Bei's Counterattack
Yuan Tan, who had been forced to hide in Funiu Mountain, knew that the main battlefield had been transferred to Yingchuan. If Liu Bei was defeated, he would die without a place to die, so he gathered his few elites and led three Wan Yuanjun rushed to Yingchuan County to support Liu Bei.

When Huanglong led the army to Yingchuan, he was surprised to find that the army in Liu Bei's hands was not inferior to him.

The two sides had a tentative fight, and Huang Long found that Liu Bei brought elites this time, and their fighting power was also very strong. He even made up the gap in artillery, and it was difficult for him to break through this alliance in a short time.

What surprised Huang Long the most was that a few days later, another 2 horses came from the upper reaches of the Han River. Liu Bei had more and more soldiers and horses, even surpassing the army in Huang Long's hands. Losing the chance to defeat Liu Bei, he immediately asked Xu Wei in Luoyang for help.

At the same time, Huanglong ordered the army to retreat to the front line of the Rushui River, and confronted the Dahan Company across the river, planning to wait for the reinforcements to arrive before fighting Liu Bei.

In mid-June, Luoyang City!
"What's going on? Where did Liu Bei get so much food and grass? Can he support an army of 10 to fight?" Xu Wei was surprised by the changes in the battle situation in Yingchuan County.

Xu Wei originally thought that Liu Bei could only fight soy sauce this time, but he didn't expect that Liu Bei would quietly gather an army of 10 to fight back against him. Huanglong was even caught off guard by Liu Bei, and most of the entire Yingchuan County was lost. The strength can't beat Liu Bei and the others.

Jia Xu immediately said: "Information from Jingzhou shows that the grain ships from Hanzhong to Jingzhou have not stopped since last month. Our spies found out that Zhang Lu of Hanzhong County supported Liu Bei with 100 million shi of grain. After obtaining enough food and grass to mobilize an army to support Yuan Tan, Zhang Lu even dispatched his general Zhang Wei to lead [-] Hanzhong troops to support Liu Bei!"

"And Zhang Lu has recuperated in Hanzhong these years, and the whole Hanzhong has absorbed hundreds of thousands of refugees. When Liu Bei conquered Chengdu, he dared not continue to attack Hanzhong because he was afraid of Zhang Lu's strength in Hanzhong. Hanzhong's food, grass and financial resources can really support this. Hundreds of thousands of troops fight!"

Wang Ge was surprised: "Isn't Zhang Lu one of us? How could he support Liu Bei?"

After talking about Wang Ge, he looked at Zhang Baiqi and other senior generals. It is better to say that Zhang Lu is a Taoist, and the close relationship with the great virtuous teacher is his own. Why is Zhang Lu not helping them, but helping Liu Bei, an outsider? ?
Zhang Baiqi is also full of question marks. Don't look at them as Qushuai of the Yellow Turban Army, but in fact their status is not too high. The original 36 Fang Qushuai didn't have their names at all, and they can't be regarded as high-level members of the Taiping Sect.

Of course, it was also because of this that they escaped the pursuit of the Han army and survived until now. Now they have to ask Zhang Baiqi about the relationship between Zhang Lu and the great virtuous teacher. They really don't know.

Jia Xu said: "It's not surprising that Zhang Lu supported Liu Bei. Everyone knows about the relationship between his lips and his teeth! Our big army aims to annex the world, but Zhang Lu is now the king of Hanzhong. As long as he doesn't want to give up his identity, he will definitely stand up. On the opposite side of us!"

"And now Sili has been conquered by us, and Hanzhong has become the frontline county against our army. Even if Zhang Lu wants to protect his own Hanzhong, he will definitely support Liu Bei."

Xu Wei was firm: "A mere Zhang Lu is nothing. If he is willing to support Liu Bei, he can support him. If there is no such scruple, we can justifiably attack Hanzhong."

"And Liu Bei led the army to Yingchuan County, which is exactly what I want. Now that Luoyang City has been breached, the army in our hands completely exceeds the number of Liu Bei's coalition forces, enough to defeat them!"

"Zhang Baiqi, Wang Yong!"

"exist!"

Xu Wei said: "The two of you lead an army of 10 to Yingchuan to support Huanglong first. After I have sorted out the affairs of Luoyang City, I will go there to support you."

Zhang Baiqi and Wang Yong said: "No!"

At the same time, the allied forces of the princes of the Han Dynasty also learned of the fall of Luoyang.

"Luoyang City is the number one city in the world, and there are still 8 levels of defense. How could Lei Gong break through Luoyang City so quickly!" The news of the fall of Luoyang City spread to the camp of the coalition forces of the princes, and Yuan Tan couldn't believe it.

The hundreds of thousands of troops he left behind in Sili couldn't even stop Lei Gong for two months, which made Yuan Tan feel dizzy.

Most of Yuzhou has fallen, and what remains in Yuan Tan's hands are only a few small counties near Funiu Mountain, and most of his army is also hiding in Funiu Mountain, relying on the location to resist Lei Gong's attack.

Sili fell again, which almost declared him a bereaved dog.This reduced him from the top three vassals in the world to a bereaved dog who was not even as good as Zhang Lu.

But the spies reported back: "I heard that there was a mutiny in Luoyang City. The defenders of Luoyang City wanted to join Lei Gong, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the Second Young Master. The Second Young Master massacred the defenders of Luoyang City. All the captains were brutally slaughtered, so the guards in Luoyang City were panicked, Han Meng led the remaining generals in Luoyang City to launch a mutiny, killed the second son, and sacrificed Luoyang City."

Hearing this news, the other generals of the coalition of princes all looked at Yuan Tan.

This Yuan Xi and his elder brother Yuan Tan are really a pair of crouching dragons and phoenixes. They kill the generals before the battle, and they kill them in a desperate manner. This is not to force the people under their hands to rebel.

Yuan Tan was embarrassed by Zhang Bei's gaze.

At this time, Liu Bei broke the siege and said: "Now is not the time to complain, Luoyang City has been completely captured by Lei Gong, and now the entire Sili has fallen into Lei Gong's hands. How to act?"

When Liu Bei said this, they just remembered that now the company has 20 more enemies, and suddenly there are 20 more enemies, like a mountain, overwhelming everyone, the Dagan army is already strong , Now the number of troops is more than three times that of them, there is no need to fight this time.

Now Zhang Wei regrets it, why did he jump into this pit of fire?

Zhang Fei immediately said: "This battle can no longer be fought. Sili has fallen, and more than half of Yuzhou has also fallen. It is useless for our army to stay in Yingchuan. Instead, it will be easily attacked by Lei Gong's 30 troops. If you are not careful, our army will be wiped out. I propose to withdraw the army now. The chariot general can hide the main force in Funiu Mountain to resist Lei Gong. The imperial court will send food and grass to support you. Given the terrain of Funiu Mountain, even if it is Lei Gong Even if an army of 30 attacks, it is impossible to destroy you!"

Yuan Xi said excitedly: "It's absolutely impossible. If our army flees without a fight like this, the whole Central Plains will be occupied by Lei Gong. Since ancient times, those who have won the Central Plains have won the world. General Zhang's proposal is to give the world to Lei Gong. We This time we are going to retreat, what do you want Cao Cao in Qingzhou to think of my big Han coalition army?"

"He saw that we dare not face-to-face with Lei Gong. Maybe he directly led Qingzhou and Xuzhou to join Lei Gong. When the time comes, Lei Gong will account for [-]% of the world of the big man. Who can stop Lei Gong from dominating the world?"

"This proposal by General Zhang is to completely destroy me, a big man!"

Yuan Tan doesn't care if the big man is destroyed or not, but if Liu Bei really listens to Zhang Fei's opinion, his Yuan family will really be over. Even if he still has tens of thousands of troops in his hands, he can't afford to lose Yuzhou. Being able to become Liu Bei's watchdog is absolutely unacceptable to Yuan Tan.
