Chapter 332: The princes attack the city

() "The most important thing at the moment is to repel the coalition forces of the princes, not to mention that there are generals such as Zhang Liao in Hulao Pass, Jia Rong will not be able to succeed so easily. <-"" Li Ru really has no good way, so he comforted Dong Zhuo with kind words .

Dong Zhuo said: "Soldiers from the coalition army appeared in Mengjinguan and Pingjin, and the people in Luoyang City are also unstable. At this critical moment, a good son-in-law must contribute more to the army, so that everyone will be prosperous and everyone will be damaged."

Li Ru's body shook, and he bowed his head and said, "No!" Dong Zhuo's words brought Li Ru out of the cold palace and became a very popular figure.

Becoming Dong Zhuo's military adviser, Li Ru never thought of betrayal, and has been working hard for Dong Zhuo's development.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. Mengjin Pass is guarded by Xu Rong, and nothing will go wrong. As for Pingjin Pass, it will not be the place with the most troops. As for the passes such as Yique in the south of Luoyang, only a few hundred troops are needed to guard it, and it is difficult for the princes to advance an inch. "Li Ru talked in detail.

Dong Zhuo said happily: "I have Wenyou, so I don't have to worry about it! Wenyou can handle matters in the military at his own discretion, just report to me afterwards."

Being reused by Dong Zhuo again, Li Ru is also a heroic man. Some restless generals in the former army, Li Ru has long been secretly remembered in his heart. Dong Jun generals who are familiar with Li Ru know that once Li Ru regains power, he will be When the bad luck of the powerful general who jumped in the past came, it was the former general of Dong Jun, no matter how frustrated Li Ru was, he would be respectful and respectful when he saw him, and he dared not neglect him in the slightest.

An imperceptible smile flashed across the corner of Li Ru's mouth.

With the help of Li Ru, Dong Zhuo once again resumed a carefree life. Among Dong Jun, Li Ru is an all-around talent who knows everything from battlefield strategy to army management.

Huang Wan, Yang Biao, etc. have been very close to Dong Zhuo recently, and they are among the three princes. They have been in cahoots with Dong Zhuo in the court, and many officials bowed to the two of them openly, and said bad things behind their backs.

In Luoyang City, Jia Xu sorted out the materials from Xianlian Pavilion, and also analyzed the changes in the situation in Luoyang City. Before Jia Rong left, there were [-] cavalry and [-] infantry in Luoyang City. The Xiliang army will also send troops to assist Dong Jun in guarding the pass.

Now there are only [-] cavalry and [-] infantry in the city, and Dong Jun has about [-] troops. Jia Xu must always think about how to protect Luoyang's checkpoints at the lowest cost. The Xiliang Army is the root of Jia Rong. Every cavalry is Jia Rong's painstaking effort.

The city gate of Luoyang was closed, and it was difficult for Jia Xu to obtain information from various sources. Fortunately, Su Shuang managed Luoyang not overnight, and the information still came to Jia Xu continuously, including the restless family in the city.

Among the information that Dong Zhuo got, Jia Xu provided him with a lot of information, killing people with a knife, Dong Zhuo will bear the notoriety, why not do it, Jia Rong himself has no notoriety in Luoyang.

The [-]th Route Allied Forces were mighty with hundreds of thousands, and Dong Zhuo's heart was raised high. The last thing he heard was that there were aristocratic families in the city colluding with the Allied Forces. His attitude was that he would rather kill one thousand by mistake than let one go.

With this information, Jia Xu can predict the next move of the princes' army in advance.

There are generals such as Jiang Yu and Ma Teng in the city, and more importantly, Zhang Xiu also came to Luoyang to assist Jia Xu in handling information.

Zhang Xiu is a member of the Lone Wolf Army. He has a strong ability to collect information, but it is slow to sort it out. He also acted as Jia Xu's undercover in Luoyang City. Zhang Xiu is quite happy about this. So much better.

Gao Shun led the camp and [-] cavalry to station in Hangu Pass. At that time, the army retreated. Jia Rong only needed to defend Hangu Pass to prevent the Kwantung princes from advancing an inch. There were Jia Rong's men and horses in counties and counties along the way, although there were not many. However, it can play a key role. After all, there are not many standing soldiers in these counties and counties, and supplies such as food and grass have long been conscripted to Luoyang by Dong Zhuo's order.

The coalition forces of the princes launched the most violent attack, and Hulao Pass was the brunt, and there were endless ways to attack the city.

Outside Hulao Pass, the allied forces of the feudal lords forcibly piled up two large earth mountains, which not only played a role in monitoring the defenders in the pass, but also provided cover for the soldiers attacking the city by confronting the defenders when they attacked the city. Greatly divided the attention of the defenders.

Jia Rong was not weak at all against the coalition's offensive methods. There were pieces of raw cowhide hanging outside the city, and most of the coalition's arrows were blocked by the cowhide.

Yuan Kai's death was indeed a great stimulus to Yuan Shao. He spent day and night rushing to build carts and ladders in the army, and all the surrounding trees were cut down.

Unable to attack Hulao Pass for more than ten days in a row, the initial vigor of the allied forces of the princes was also weakened a lot. Sometimes the princes attacked the city just as a show to reassure Yuan Shao. The death of the soldiers at the bottom was taken for granted by the princes. For the future of the Han Dynasty, soldiers should be sacrificed, but each soldier represents the strength of the princes.

No prince is stupid, just like Sun Jian, no matter how Yuan Shao persuaded him, he just sent hundreds of soldiers to participate in the battle symbolically.

Although the wall of Hulaoguan was thick, Jia Rong had to deal with it carefully. In order to prevent the princes' army from digging tunnels and attacking the city, urns were buried in the ground one by one, and there were soldiers on it.

The soldiers listened carefully, and as long as there was any movement, they would notify the general as soon as possible.

There is a lot of oil accumulated in the pass. In ancient times, boiling oil was an effective means to prevent soldiers from attacking the city. The boiling oil that fell from the sky was hard to defend against, and it was enough to tear the liver and gallbladder of the siege soldiers. The city of Luoyang unconditionally supported Jia Rong. For the operation at Hulao Pass, consumables such as arrows, knives and guns have been continuously shipped.

The soldiers of the princes outside the pass became the target of the Xiliang army to practice archery, especially the group of princes soldiers on the earth mountain. The rapid progress of the Xiliang army soldiers' bow skills is inseparable from their sacrifice. It is widely spread among the soldiers of the two armies that as long as Lu Bu appears on the city, the soldiers of the coalition army on the earth mountain will have to climb down obediently.

Compared with Lu Bu, Hao Meng and Cao Xing, who are known as unparalleled archery skills, are much inferior.

Among the princes' army, Yuan Shao sat on the top seat with a gloomy face. In terms of military strength, the princes are more than ten times that of the defenders in the pass, but in terms of combat ability, they are not as good as the cavalry of the Xiliang Army.

Just yesterday, Zhao Yun, Lu Bu, Hua Xiong, Zhang Liao and other generals came out together, and the cavalry came in mighty force, directly killing the Chinese army. If righteousness comes to help, the losses of the armies of the princes will be even greater.

The princes outside the pass continued to attack, and the defenders inside the pass became unprecedentedly united. There was an example of Jia Rong treating and comforting wounded soldiers. The relationship between Xiliang Army, Dong Jun and Bingzhou Army was no longer so tense. Yu would sit down and chat with each other, talking and laughing. In the final analysis, this was just a grievance between the upper-level generals. Maybe the soldiers had long forgotten what Ding Yuan looked like.

After receiving Dong Zhuo's order, Li Su and Zhang Liao fully cooperated with Jia Rong.

"In your opinion, when will Hulao pass be broken?" Yuan Shao said while sitting on the upper seat with a gloomy face.

As the leader of the army of princes, 10 people could not conquer Hulao Pass in half a month, and his face was always a little uneasy, not to mention that he still had family hatred on his body, Yuan Wei's kindness to him was like a movie playing in Yuan Shao's mind every night playback continuously.

Seeing that there was no one answering in the tent for a long time, Cao Cao clasped his fists and said, "Leader, the road to Luoyang is not just Hulao Pass. Our army can send most of our troops to attack Pingjin or Mengjin, as long as one of these two passes If it is defeated, the army can come to Luoyang city. There are eight gates around Luoyang. Dong Zhuo and Jia Rong will definitely send troops to guard it. Luoyang is actually an empty city. When the army arrives, Luoyang will be at your fingertips."

"At that time, with the cooperation of the aristocratic families in the city, Dong Zhuo and other rebellious officials in Luoyang City will be finished. Once Luoyang is broken, the defenders of Hulao Pass will lose the support of food, grass and weapons, and they will definitely flee in embarrassment." Cao Cao said earnestly. It created a big fantasy space for the princes in the tent, and the purpose of the princes' coalition forces was to attack Luoyang.

Cao Cao's words won the support of many princes in the tent, but Yuan Shao still sat on the throne of the leader with an unhappy face. Cao Cao's words made sense, but Pingjin and Mengjin simply took the path to Luoyang, how could there be a tiger? The prison is open and aboveboard, and the coalition forces want to punish the traitors on the side of the Qing emperor, so the more legitimate the better.

"Our army has been attacking for many days, and the soldiers in the pass are probably already exhausted. You don't need to be discouraged, you will be attacking Hulao pass in the next day." Yuan Shao comforted.

Cao Cao sighed and turned his gaze elsewhere. Since ancient times, when you become king or loser, others will not care how you win, they will only remember that you are a winner. Yuan Shao loves fame too much, so he doesn't bother to adopt Cao Cao's strategy. Growing up together, what Yuan Shao thinks will certainly not escape Cao Cao's eyes.

"Tomorrow's army will attack Hulao Pass, you all need to work together and don't slack off." Yuan Shao's voice suddenly rose an octave, causing the princes in the tent to tremble.

Yuan Shu on the tent turned his eyes and said, "Actually, our army doesn't need to go up to the city, it can also enter the city from underground."

Yuan Shao looked at Yuan Shu in surprise, and said pleasantly, "Is there a good way for the highway?"

Seeing the princes in the tent cast their eyes on him, Yuan Shu felt very satisfied. He liked the feeling of being valued very much.

"We can attack the city while digging tunnels to lead to the pass, so that we can sneak into the pass without anyone noticing, and the inside should be combined with the outside, and the Hulao pass will be broken."

The princes heard the words and talked a lot. To become a prince, they are not ordinary people. They all have extraordinary mind and city government. Yuan Shu's words are very straightforward, that is, to maximize the advantages of manpower, so that the soldiers in the gate have no time to care about the inside of the city. Next, capture Hulao Pass.

"Not only that, but the ladder and the well rail should also be covered up together. The Chinese army only needs to leave behind General Gongsun's white horse righteousness." Yuan Shao added.

Gongsun Zan was so happy. The siege would consume a lot of soldiers. He didn't want to watch his subordinates go to die. He looks rough and unrestrained, but actually has a careful heart. The city is quite deep. On the surface, he is respectful to Yuan Shao, but in fact he doesn't take this leader seriously. An army of [-] can't win if they attack a small Hulao Pass.
