Chapter 121 Xun Yu Persuades Lu Bu

Dong Zhuo and his party rushed back to the mansion in a hurry, and immediately discussed the matter of dispatching troops. Dong Zhuo asked Li Ru for advice, "Wen You, now that Luoyang has been lost, Hangu Pass cannot be lost."

Li Ru replied: "My lord, for now we can only suspend the attack on Chenliu, let Lu Bu return to Luoyang, regain the lost ground, and form a pincer attack to outflank the bandit army."

Dong Zhuo asked again: "Who can guard Hangu Pass!"

"Guo Si can resist the enemy!"

Dong Dongzhuo immediately shouted: "Order Guo Bang to lead five thousand elite soldiers to Hangu Pass, and guard the pass to the death. There must be no mistakes!"

"promise!"

Li Ru bowed his hands and took the order to leave. Before he left the gate of the mansion, he saw a young general rushing towards Li Ru and said to Li Ru, "Sir, is the lord in the mansion?"

This is Zhang Ji's nephew Zhang Xiu.

"Why is Youwei so panicked!"

Li Ru asked.

Zhang Xiu replied: "Hangu Pass has been lost."

"what……"

Li Ru turned pale with shock, and quickly asked, "Youwei, the news is definite!"

Zhang Xiu replied: "Sir, the last general dares to speak nonsense. The news that Vice General Hanguguan ran to death three horses in a row and sent them back has passed out in the west camp outside the city."

"broken!"

Li Ru let out a long sigh, and immediately shouted: "Youwei, follow me to see the lord."

Just as Dong Zhuo sat down, he saw Li Ru returning, and exclaimed, "Why is Wen Ruo back?"

"My lord, Hangu Pass has been lost, and the bandit army is coming to Chang'an!"

Li Ru replied.

Dong Zhuo's expression changed suddenly, and he cursed: "Damn thief, don't dare to do this, my grand master wants to tear his body into thousands of pieces, linking the nine clans."

Dong Zhuo asked Zhang Xiu again, "Do you know how many soldiers there are in the bandit army?"

Zhang Xiu replied: "According to the deputy general guarding the pass, there are only two or three thousand bandits in the bandit army, but they all ride on two horses, coming and going like the wind."

"With a mere 3000 people, you dare to come and die. It's really audacious!"

Dong Zhuo scolded angrily.

At the same time, Dong Zhuo was very disappointed with Niu Fu's generation. Tens of thousands of horses were beaten by 3000 people, and they couldn't find the southeast, north, south, and north.

"My lord, right now we have to gather heavy troops and wipe out this bandit army in the Hongnong area. Otherwise, if we really let them rush into the Chang'an area, there will be turmoil in the government and the public, and disaster will happen."

Li Ru remonstrated.

"Ok!"

Dong Zhuo felt the same, nodded heavily, and sent an order: "Call Zhang Ji and Guo Si immediately, lead [-] elite soldiers, and send troops to Hongnong. Be sure to destroy this bandit army. If it fails, follow the military law."

"promise!"

Li Ru bowed his hand and took the order to leave again.

……

Jujube, Lu Bu's camp.

In the past, the Kwantung Allied Forces formed an alliance here to hunt down thieves together. As a result, Lu Bu was defeated at Hulao Pass, and he was disgraced. Unexpectedly, the time was unpredictable, and he fought back.

Bingfeng pointed directly at Dongjun.

General Zhang Liao walked into Lu Bu's camp late at night and reported, "Marquis Wen, something is wrong. Luoyang has fallen into the hands of the bandits, and our army's food and grass have been cut off."

"Oh?"

Lu Bu exclaimed, but a strange look flashed across his face, and he said coldly, "Do you know which way it is?"

"Bingzhou Inspector Zhao Feng!"

Zhang Liao replied.

Lu Bu was still unmoved, and continued to ask, "How much food is there in the army?"

Zhang Liao replied, "Ten days at most!"

"it is good!"

Lv Bu shouted in a long voice: "Here's an order, the army will have a full meal, and send troops to Dongjun tomorrow morning to capture Cao Cao alive."

"Marquis Wen, Luoyang has been lost, and the final general is afraid of the danger at Hangu Pass. Right now, we should return to Luoyang. If we continue to advance eastward, not only will the food and grass be limited, but it will also encourage the bandit army to run rampant."

Zhang Liao persuaded him.

"The general has his own plans, so there is no need to say anything!"

Lu Bu shouted abruptly.

"promise!"

Zhang Liao saw that there was nothing he could do, so he could only accept his orders, but he didn't know that Lu Bu had long been rebellious during his trip, and now he wanted Dong Zhuo to die, so he could find a safe place to live and establish his own family. come to life.

Only after Lu Bu was hurt by love, people suddenly realized that in this troubled world, if you want to get what you want, you can only have power and strength. He has to prove himself to the world, and he, Lu Bu, will rise to the top sooner or later.

Winning Dongjun became Lu Bu's most urgent hope. He wanted to use this to recuperate and achieve great things.

"Marquis Wen, we caught a spy!"

General Wei You escorted a group of scribes into the camp, and saw that the scribes were not afraid of life and death, with a calm face, and said in a deep voice: "Marquis Wen, I am here to save you."

"Ha ha……"

Lu Bu laughed loudly and said, "Who are you, how dare you speak nonsense."

"I'm Xun Yu!"

The person who came was Xun Yu, who was going to Bingzhou to lobby Zhao Feng, halfway there, he learned that Zhao Feng had occupied Luoyang one after another, so he immediately returned and headed straight for Lu Bu's camp.

"Where is it now?"

Lu Bu asked arrogantly.

Xun Yu didn't hide anything, and said bluntly: "Now I am the Sima of Cao Gong's other department."

"Come on, tie me up!"

Lu Bu shouted in a long voice.

"promise!"

Two armored soldiers rushed in from outside the camp and were about to drag Xun Yu out, but Xun Yu said loudly, "Marquis Wen, you might as well wait until the next sentence is finished, it won't be too late to kill!"

"You know that this general intends to attack Dongjun, but you still dare to come. You are not asking for your own death!"

Lu Bu shouted.

Xun Yu replied: "Marquis Wen, if you are attacking Dongjun, the time limit may be approaching. If you rein in the precipice now, maybe there is still time."

"Don't be ashamed!"

Lu Bu sneered.

Xun Yu continued to speak: "Marquis Wen should have heard that Luoyang has been lost, Hangu Pass is also lost, the government and the public are bound to be in turmoil, with Zhao Feng's bravery, the people of Chang'an, who can resist, at that time, once the Bingzhou Army opens Xiao Guan, Chang'an will have no danger to defend, and Dong Zhuo will be undefeated after being besieged for three to five months."

Lu Bu replied in a deep voice: "Chang'an has [-] elite soldiers, no matter how brave Zhao Feng is, it is still difficult for him to attack Huanglong with his own strength."

"Of course!"

Xun Yu didn't refute, and said again: "What Wen Hou said is not unreasonable, but Wen Hou has thought about your own end."

"If Dong Zhuo continues to advance eastward, Dong Zhuo will definitely raise troops to question his crimes. Even if Marquis Wen has made great contributions, he will be killed."

"If you go back to rescue Chang'an, Marquis Wen will face Zhao Feng head-on. Even if the tens of thousands of people in Luoyang can't stop Zhao Feng, I'm afraid Wenhou's going here will be more dangerous than good. Besides, as far as I know, there have long been people in Chang'an city. If the righteous men gather, once the two cooperate with each other, Dong Zhuo will definitely be defeated, as Dong Zhuo's trusted general, Marquis Wen, how can you let you live."

Xun Yu's analysis was clear and logical, but Lu Bu was stumped and in a dilemma.

"However, I can show Wen Hou a clear path, so I don't know whether Wen Hou wants to live or not."

Xun Yu spoke slowly.

Lv Bu was taken aback for a moment, and asked in thought, "Just say it!"

Xun Yu cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Cao has always admired Marquis Wen. If Marquis Wen is willing to form an alliance with my lord, not only can he protect himself wisely, but he can also reap the benefits. When Dong Zhuo can't take care of himself, he will send troops to Luoyang. Wouldn't it be great!"
