The Liaodong Iron Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 234 Dong Zhuo's Plan
"Hou Wen, if it wasn't for each of us being the master, the three of us should get really drunk!" Before leaving, Huo Yu said.

"I believe there will be that day!" Lu Bu said and got on his horse.

"Wenhou, Dong Zhuo is not a good leader, be careful!" Just as Lu Bu was about to leave, Huo Yu spoke again.

Hearing this, Lu Bu paused, looked back to see that Huo Yu hadn't spoken, and then rode back.

"Brother, is this a conspiracy?" Zhao Yun asked with a smile.

"Forget it! To be able to fight Lu Bu, this life is not in vain! In today's battle, the three of us will be famous all over the world! Let's go back!" As soon as the words fell, the two got on their horses and returned.

The fierce battle ended peacefully in this way. As for what the three of them talked about, Huo Yu didn't say much.After returning to the army, Huo Yu thanked the guests behind closed doors, on the grounds that the injury was too serious and needed to be recuperated quietly.

After Lu Bu returned to Sishuiguan, he was scolded bloody by Dong Zhuo, and finally he was relieved only after Li Ru persuaded him.

"Wen You, what did Lu Bu say to that Huo Yu kid on the battlefield, have you ever found out?" Dong Zhuo saw this matter in his eyes and kept it in his heart, because Lu Bu's murder of Ding Yuan made his general Feel uneasy.

"Father-in-law, after Lu Bu returned, he used the excuse that he was seriously injured and needed to recuperate, and thanked the guests behind closed doors, without seeing anyone!" Li Ru said helplessly. Nowadays, Dong Zhuo is always suspicious all day long. If Lu Bu is pushed into a hurry, he is not allowed to do something.

"Hmph! The Xiliang army is not limited to Lu Bu, but Guo Si is ordered to go out tomorrow to call for war!" Dong Zhuo ordered with a cold snort of displeasure.

The next day, before Guo Si led [-] Xiliang cavalry to go to battle, scouts came to report that General Zhengbei and Liaodong Governor Huo Yu was seriously injured, and he had already led his troops back to Liaodong.Dong Zhuo was surprised and delighted when he got the news, only Li Ru frowned.

"Scheme?" Li Ru had countless question marks in his heart, but judging from the information sent back by the scouts later, the Liaodong Army really withdrew, so that the morale of the entire coalition army was low, and the card of avoiding the battle was high.

"Guo Si, you can lead [-] Xiliang iron cavalry to conquer the camp of the princes of the Guandong!" Dong Zhuo was not a person who could hold his temper, so he ordered.

When Guo Bang led [-] Xiliang cavalry out of the customs to call for war, Yuan Shao also led his troops to meet the enemy for the first time.The soldiers and horses of both sides formed a formation in front of the camp of the coalition forces. Due to the lack of cavalry in the coalition forces, they formed a defensive formation.However, the Xiliang army did not take action for a long time, because Guo Si felt a trace of uneasiness.

As for the coalition forces, the giant shield soldiers on the infantry side are in the front followed by spears and halberd soldiers, the sword and shield hands are interspersed with the bearer for cover, and finally the archers. The whole formation looks like a tortoise.

"Report! General, there are no Liaodong Army cavalry around the battlefield!" After receiving another report from the scouts, Guo Si finally gave the general order to attack.

After that, the Xiliang cavalry began to charge towards the formation of the Kwantung princes' allied forces.The rain of arrows from both sides immediately covered most of the sky, and screams filled the entire battlefield.

As Xiliang soldiers fought to the death wave after wave, a gap was finally opened in the left wing of the coalition's phalanx.A large number of Xiliang cavalry rushed in like a flood. In the formation, although Hanoi prefect Wang Kuang, Shangdang prefect Zhang Yang, and Xuzhou Mu Taoqian commanded the troops to try to keep the left wing, the difference in combat power between the two sides was too great. Except for the Danyang soldiers in Xuzhou, the soldiers of the other two have begun to collapse.

"Report! The leader's left wing has been breached!" An urgent report from a scout interrupted Yuan Shao's thoughts.

"What?" Yuan Shao said in shock.There was no time to burn the incense, and the left wing was defeated. Before Yuan Shao could issue a general order, another scout covered in blood appeared in front of Yuan Shao's eyes.

"Report! The leader's right wing has been breached!"

"Ah!" Facing such a situation, Yuan Shao felt helpless to the extreme, and then issued an order for the entire army to withdraw to the camp.

As the saying goes, the defeat of an army is like a mountain, and Yuan Shao, the leader of the alliance, was the first to run away, and the rest will naturally follow suit.In an instant, the entire coalition army collapsed, and everyone ran into the camp like crazy.

Seeing this scene, Dong Zhuo, who had closed the water, laughed loudly, and kept praising Guo Si.The allied forces of the Kwantung princes were so unbeatable, if he led all the Xiliang cavalry to launch a general attack, he would be able to defeat them in one fell swoop.

Thinking of this, Dong Zhuo no longer hesitated to order Li Ru to lead [-] Xiliang soldiers and the Bingzhou army to guard Hulao Pass, and he personally brought the remaining [-] Xiliang soldiers to join the battle.

With the addition of Dong Zhuo and the new force, the morale of the entire Xiliang army was extremely high, and they followed the allied forces of the princes all the way.Yuan Shao, who originally planned to rely on the camp to defend, completely collapsed. His own rout broke up the defensive formation at the camp gate, and Xiliang soldiers then rushed in.

During the chaotic battle, Yuan Shao's commander-in-chief began to retreat, and the soldiers of the coalition army fled, throwing away all the weapons, armor, and money they were carrying.In short, how easy it is, everything is for running fast, if you run slowly, there is only one end.

Fortunately, during the escape, Yuan Shao's commander-in-chief flag was still there, causing most of the defeated soldiers to retreat in the direction of the commander-in-chief flag.At this point in the battle, Xiliang soldiers committed an old problem, because there is an unwritten military rule in the Xiliang army, all the spoils that they plunder are their own.

Dong Zhuo, who had been depressed for a few days, was in a good mood after seeing the allied forces retreat.If Li Ru was here, he would definitely persuade him to "don't chase after the poor". It is strange that Yuan Shao is still holding the handsome flag while fleeing.

Dazed, Dong Zhuo led the Xiliang army into a valley and lost Yuan Shao's trace.

On the top of the mountain, Huo Yu and Cao Cao stood side by side. In order to conquer Hulao Pass, the two brains took great pains to cover the entire valley with fire igniters.In order to be able to lure Dong Zhuo here, the Kwantung princes suffered a lot from their bitter tricks, but all of this is nothing in front of righteousness.

"Brother Meng De, let's do it! A Wang Zuozhi talent and a ghost talent, this is enough for Dong Feifei to drink a pot!"

"Hahaha, Dong Feifei? I'm speechless!"

Just as the Xiliang army entered the valley continuously, suddenly a fire arrow flew down from the top of the mountain, and then a sound of boulders rolling down separated the Xiliang army.In the valley at this time, the fire arrow that had just landed instantly caused a big fire.

"It's a plan!" Dong Zhuo lamented while riding on the horse and looking at the sea of ​​fire in front of him.

"Hahaha! Old thief Dong Zhuo, let's see how you escape today! Let the arrows go!" Yuan Shao's laughter came suddenly, but what followed was a rain of arrows.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and Guo Si, whose face was blackened by the smoke, stumbled to Dong Zhuo and cried, "My lord, please forgive me!"

"Alas! You are not guilty! The current plan is to try to escape!" Dong Zhuo calmed down and said with a long sigh.
