Chapter 128
Only after Li Jue left, Zhao Feng's marching speed changed from normal, it was not because of the speed of soldiers, but only for three hours a day, walking slowly.

It took five days of walking for more than three hundred miles before arriving at Mangrove Bay, fifty miles north of Gaoling.

This made Li Jue puzzled again. He had sent troops to urge him three times in a row, but Zhao Feng always replied that the food and grass could not keep up, and the soldiers were too hungry to march quickly.

In Gaoling City, Li Jue and Li Ru had already set up a net, and they were waiting for Zhao Feng to sneak in, but they couldn't wait for the prey to arrive, and they seemed a little impatient.

"Sir, what tricks do you think this thief Zhao Feng is playing?"

Li Jue said with a serious face.

The battle of Gaoling City was the battle of Li Jue's turnaround. Xiao Guan fell, and he became a thief with his own body. All these pasts have become stains on his body that are difficult to wash away.

This will be a turning point in Li Jue's life. If he wins here, Dong Zhuo will naturally not ask too much for the crime of Xiaoguan's fall, and maybe he can get his fame.

But if he loses, Li Jue will be useless and have no place to live.

"drive……"

Outside the city, a fast horse came, and at the gate of the city, he reined in his horse and said to Li Jue on the tower: "General, Zhao Feng's army stopped at Hongshuwan, and they are already starting to camp."

"Stopped?"

Li Jue paused in doubt, turned to look at Li Ru, and said worriedly: "Sir, could it be that the thief Zhao Feng already knew about Gao Ling?"

Li Ru shook his head and said, "Probably not. The four gates of Gaoling City have been closed these few days, and no one else has gone out except for the confidants sent out to spy on horses."

"Then what are they waiting for?"

Li Jue was at a loss, Chang'an was right in front of him, but Zhao Feng didn't move forward, could it be that he intentionally left time for Dong Zhuo to dispatch troops, isn't this self-defeating?
"Explore again!"

Li Jue shouted in a long voice, if Zhao Feng is not eliminated, he will be in trouble for a day.

"promise!"

Tanma bowed his hand to accept the order, turned the horse's head around, and drove away at a high speed, kicking up a large cloud of dust.

……

Mangrove Bay, the camp of the Chinese Army.

Zhao Feng asked Du Ruhui with a smile on his face: "Du Gong, is Li Jue useful?"

Du Ruhui stroked his beard, smiled back and said, "This man has no cheekbones, is mediocre, has big cheekbones, and is arrogant. How can he easily submit to our army? Let him go back to Gaoling City now. Lay an ambush and wait for our army to throw ourselves into the trap."

"So good!"

Zhao Feng replied in a solemn voice, then came to the desk, pointed to the topographical map of the march, and finally landed on Anling City.

"Du Gong, has the Tan Ma who went to spy on An Ling come back?"

Du Ruhui replied: "The people have already returned, and there are only more than a thousand defenders in Anling. Dong Zhuo must have used all his troops to guard against Hangu Pass. This is a good time for us to attack. We can go down to Anling first, and then Straight into Chang'an City."

"good!"

Zhao Feng nodded in response, then got up and told the soldiers outside the camp: "Quickly go and tell Yue Fei to come to the army account to discuss matters."

After a while, Yue Fei strode in, bowed his hands and said, "My lord, are you going to send troops to Gaoling?"

"No!"

Du Ruhui shook his head with a smile, and said bluntly: "General Yue Fei, it is true to send troops, but it is not Gaoling, but Anling!"

"An Ling!"

Yue Fei responded, and then said: "Master, Anling is only less than a hundred miles away from Chang'an. If you take Anling and attack Chang'an, it will be easier."

"Tomorrow, the soldiers will be divided into two groups. I will lead the iron-blooded army to Gaoling to confuse the Gaoling defenders. Pengju will lead the Yue family army to raid Anling and make a quick decision. After taking Anling, they will rush day and night to kill Chang'an."

Zhao Feng ordered.

"promise!"

At this moment, Di Lei from the front battalion hurried in, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, Hangu Pass has sent someone to send urgent information."

Hangu Pass?
Zhao Feng and Du Ruhui paused at the same time, could it be that Hangu Pass was lost?

"What about people?"

Zhao Feng shouted.

"Just outside the camp!"

Delay responded.

When I was young, a soldier in black armor walked in. This attire was clearly an iron-blooded soldier.

The soldiers of the Jagged Army shouted anxiously: "General, something is wrong! Lu Bu has defected to Cao Cao, and the two armies have joined forces to capture the Luoyang area and are storming Hangu Pass. General Dianwei has returned to Hangu Pass to take charge of the overall situation. "

"This……"

Zhao Feng exclaimed, this plot has seriously deviated from the historical track, how could these two people get together.

Du Ruhui said in a low voice: "Don't worry, tell me everything you know!"

The Jagged soldier took a deep breath and replied: "A few days ago, General Zhang Yang sent someone to find General Dianwei, saying that there was a sudden change at Hulao Pass, and Dong Jun killed each other. Then Lu Bu and Cao Cao's army joined forces. Two for one, a large-scale invasion of Luoyang, the matter is very important, General Dian Wei led us back to Hangu Pass overnight, within three days, Lu Bu's troops rushed to the pass."

"Cao Aman, can you show some face! You are an empty-handed white wolf!"

Zhao Feng cursed, turned to look at Du Ruhui, and asked, "Du Gong, how should we fight now!"

Du Ruhui thought for a while, then slowly said: "My lord, it is very difficult for our army to attack Chang'an. If we divide our troops to defend Hangu Pass, it will be like cutting off an arm. It cannot be done. We should think about it in the long run."

After finishing speaking, Du Ruhui ordered the iron-blooded soldiers to go down to rest first. Seeing that there were only Yue Fei and Di Lei in the tent, he said, "My lord, it seems that Cao Cao also wants to share this pie. If we refuse it with all our strength, Hangu Pass may be possible." Bao, but the matter of Chang'an is bound to be frustrated, it is better to simply open Hangu Pass and let Cao Cao and Lu Bu in."

"Du Gong, Cao Aman is very ambitious, you must guard against it!"

Zhao Feng sighed.

Du Ruhui replied: "Cao Cao has occupied the land of Yanzhou in less than two years. Among the princes, except Yuan Shao, no one can match him. He really has great ambitions. With this opportunity, we can use Dong Zhuo's hand to weaken the its strength."

"good!"

Zhao Feng finally understood that Du Ruhui was going to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight and reap the benefits, so he immediately ordered: "Di Lei, you go to Hangu Pass on a fast horse and let Dian Wei and Zhang Yang pretend to be invincible. Withdraw from Hangu Pass and head towards Xiaoguan, remember, retreat slowly, and don't get confused to avoid disaster."

Di Lei cupped his hands and said, "The last general takes orders!"

Zhao Feng said to Yue Fei again: "Pengju, you can send elite soldiers into Anling first to respond internally and be ready to attack at any time."

"promise!"

"As for Li Jue, tomorrow we will send a food delivery team to Gaoling. We will ask him to deliver food due to the lack of food and grass in the army, and see how he responds. In addition, let him build a military camp outside the city to prepare for the arrival of the army."

Du Ruhui nodded, because it can be delayed for a day now, as long as Dong Jun's main force is entangled with Cao Cao's troops, they can attack on a large scale and take down Chang'an City.
