Chapter 342: Hulao Pass
"Lord."

Looking at the valley in the distance, which was enveloped by thick smoke and raging fire, Jia Xu's eyes flickered. "I'm afraid this matter will be criticized by others."

“Some people just eat too much.”

Chen Ran looked towards the valley and responded without turning his head, "Morality is for people. To talk about morality to robbers is a mental illness."

"Besides, the Xiongnu people were unlucky. They encountered a natural disaster, a wildfire, when they were camping. What does it have to do with us?"

Jia Xu smiled and said, "My Lord, you are right. It is their bad luck."

After a pause, he asked, "My lord, the fire is spreading very quickly. If it is not stopped, I'm afraid..."

Jia Xu didn't care whether the fire spread or not.

What he cares about is that this spreading fire should not hurt me, Jia Wenhe~~~
"It doesn't matter."

Chen Ran looked up at the sky and said, "It's going to rain soon."

Jia Xu looked up at the sky and saw that the clouds were rolling, as if it was going to rain heavily.

He has also read a lot of books, so he has a basic understanding of this. "As the old saying goes, when a mountain fire spreads, the sky will bring a downpour of rain. It's true~"

"Then do you know why it rains when wildfires break out?"

Chen Ran's question made Jia Xu stunned. "Maybe this is the manifestation of the mountain god."

"Hey~~~"

"What mountain god? It's because the fire generates vertical hot air currents, which carry a lot of smoke from the burning up into the sky."

"The hot air currents cause convective clouds, and the particles in the smoke act as condensation nuclei, causing water vapor to condense into clouds, which in turn produces rainfall."

Chen Ran turned around and looked at Jia Xu, who was dumbfounded and didn't understand what he said, and said with a smile, "This is science~~~"

A huge fire burned all the Xiongnu Khan Yufuluo and tens of thousands of young and strong men under his command.

Although there are still the elderly, the weak, women and children in the old camp, the tribe is doomed to fall without its main young and strong forces.

Of course, this is not all about the Huns.

There was a rebellion among them, and Yufuluo's troops were only a part of the entire Huns.

The grassland has been in chaos since Tan Shihuai's death.

Without the assistance of the Xiongnu cavalry, the Baibo bandits led by Guo Da and others lost their confidence.

In the following battle, he continued to suffer heavy blows from Chen Ran.

After repeated defeats, the Baibo bandits collapsed and dispersed.

Generals such as Han Xian, Li Le, and Hu Cai were all beheaded.

The men under his command were either killed in battle or captured alive, and only a small number of them escaped into the deep mountains and forests.

Only Guo Da, after learning that the Huns had been defeated, began to secretly prepare for escape. In the end, he successfully fled to the Heishan area of ​​Jizhou by betraying his teammates to cover his retreat, and joined the Heishan Army.

Here, Chen Ran counted the seized supplies and food, dealt with the most heinous prisoners, executed the officers, issued an eleven-drawn killing order, and reorganized the prisoners.

Just as they were planning to continue their pursuit northwards, a messenger from Luoyang arrived.

".Cao Cao of Chenliu forged an imperial edict to the world, and the princes from all over the country rose up. Eighteen princes have already come to Suanzao for a meeting."

The place called Suanzao is actually Yanjin, a famous ferry crossing on the Yellow River.

The main reason for holding the alliance here is the convenient transportation. It is not only suitable for the gathering of troops from all over the place, but also for the transportation of large amounts of food and supplies.

By the way, Suanzao County is rich in sour jujube, but this thing is not edible, but used as medicine.

"Eighteen princes, the drama of conquering Dong Zhuo has begun."

As the high-end part of the early stage of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Chen Ran would definitely not miss this drama.

but
"There are many bandits in Hedong, and the roads are not safe." Jia Xu understood Chen Ran's meaning and used his ability to speak for him. "In order to help the local people, a lot of military rations have been distributed. If the army wants to return to Luoyang, the military rations must be sent first."

In order to control Chen Ran's troops, Li Ru has been restricting them by blocking their logistics.

When in Luoyang, they were only given three days' worth of food and fodder at a time.

When sending troops to Hedong, we also tried our best to maintain the supply of food and fodder for fifteen days.

Chen Ran watched all this but didn't say anything.

It’s not that he can’t stand being bullied, but he is just waiting for the right opportunity to give it all back!

Now, the opportunity has come.

". Allocate three months' worth of food and fodder to 20,000 men, and then we can march out!"

When the news reached Luoyang, Li Ru and Dong Zhuo did not get angry, but agreed readily.

The reason is very simple. Hua Xiong, who led tens of thousands of troops to garrison Sishui Pass, won at first but was defeated by the allied forces, and more than half of his tens of thousands of troops were lost.

The coalition forces' powerful strength and strong desire to attack made Dong Zhuo keenly aware of the danger.

In comparison, Chen Ran was just asking for food and supplies, which was much better than being lured over by the princes of Guandong and then stabbed in the back.

The food and grass were quickly allocated, and Chen Ran immediately led his troops south back to Luoyang.

The aggressiveness of the Guandong coalition forces also aroused Dong Zhuo's courage to resist.

During this period, he successively dismissed Huangfu Song and others and regained command of the Xiliang Legion.

A large number of Xiliang troops were transferred to the vicinity of Luoyang, together with Lu Bu's Bingzhou troops, Chen Ran's troops, and the previously annexed imperial court's Southern Army, Northern Army, Xiyuan Army and other troops.

He led the Xiliang Army, which was said to have an army of 200,000, and after killing Yuan Huai's entire family as a sacrifice, he set out in a mighty force to fight against the Guandong coalition forces.

One of the main forces went to Sishui Pass to fill the hole left by Hua Xiong.

The main force of the troops arrived at Hulao Pass, fifty miles away from Luoyang.

Dong Zhuo arranged for Chen Ran and Lu Bu's troops to set up camp outside the pass, while his own direct subordinates were stationed in various places inside and behind the pass.

This operation is indeed in the style of a certain diary maniac, with the miscellaneous cards going up first to consume the opponent.

Lu Bu was unhappy about this arrangement and looked very unhappy.

Chen Ran felt much more comfortable here, because he would do the same thing if he were in the same situation.

Moreover, he had already made a backup plan. Xu Huang led a group of troops to stay in Hedong to restore the local production order and provide a steady supply of soldiers and supplies.

"Big brother."

Lu Bu came and complained while drinking, "I am really dissatisfied with the arrangement made by the Grand Master." "Second brother."

Chen Ran said with a smile, "Since you have chosen to work for the Grand Tutor, this is inevitable. As for the Grand Tutor's arrangement, you and I are still outsiders to the Grand Tutor after all, so there is nothing to say about this arrangement."

Ever since he was coerced into setting fire to the emperor last time, Lu Bu took the initiative to distance himself from his sworn brother Chen Ran.

But now, I feel that I share the same pain and I took the initiative to post back.

For Lu Bu, these are basic operations.

"Humph."

After a few drinks, Lu Bu, who was drunk, said angrily, "The Grand Master regards us as outsiders, so we must let him see what we brothers are capable of!"

Chen Ran smiled but said nothing. What he was thinking was, "At this time, Lu Bu still has illusions about Dong Zhuo. We need to add fuel to the fire so that he can get rid of Master Dong."

After all, since Chen Ran once nominally belonged to Dong Zhuo, he would not kill Dong Zhuo by himself.

In comparison, Lu Bu is the most suitable tool.

"Well said. Now that the war has begun, it is a great opportunity for warriors like us to show our prowess. Come, drink!"

The coalition forces are very powerful.

But there are also many internal conflicts, and people who are just slacking off are everywhere.

The process dragged on until the Xiliang Legion became impatient and finally they slowly arrived at Hulao Pass.

When heroes gather together, the most common thing they do is not discuss how to fight, but feast.

That was truly a small banquet every three days and a big banquet every five days.

On weekdays, banquets would continue to be held in their respective camps every day.

Those who knew about it thought they were here to fight.

Those who didn’t know would think they were here for an outing and a feast.

Cao Cao kept persuading them, and finally convinced the heroes to send troops to attack Hulao Pass.

The first to appear was Wang Kuang, the governor of Henei. He first dispatched thousands of soldiers to attack Lu Bu's camp.

Unexpectedly, he was beaten badly by Lu Bu and the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry.

At the critical moment, the famous Hanoi general Fang Yue took the initiative to ride out and challenge Lu Bu to a duel.

Just as Lu Bu was about to show his bravery in front of all the heroes in the world, he ordered his subordinates to stop chasing him, and after re-establishing his formation, he stepped forward to duel with Fang Yue.

Even though he was beaten badly in the previous duel with Chen Ran, and even his Fang Tian Hua Ji was taken away.

But Lu Bu is still the same Lu Bu. He has a strong advantage when facing anyone except Chen Ran one-on-one.

After only a few rounds of fighting, Fang Yue was easily stabbed off his horse by Lu Bu.

The morale of the Xiliang Legion was greatly boosted, and cheers were heard everywhere.

Groups from all walks of life gradually gathered together, with flags waving and people everywhere.

There is no doubt that this is a good opportunity for warriors to make a name for themselves.

Mu Shun, a general under the command of the Shangdang governor, was the first to lead the charge.

This man may seem like an unknown person, but in fact he is a well-known hero in Shangdang, and can be said to be invincible in the surrounding area.

In his world, he is the best in the world.

Then he was killed instantly by Lu Bu as soon as they met.

To put it in one sentence, the peerless genius cultivated and ascended to heaven, only to find that he was just one of the 100,000 heavenly soldiers besieging the monkey~~~
Immediately afterwards, Wu Anguo, a general under the Beihai prefect, rushed out.

His martial arts skills were pretty good, and he fought for a while, but then Lu Bu chopped off one of his arms and he fled in a panic.

Such a strong performance attracted the attention of countless people.

However, Lu Bu’s highlight moment has just begun.

Seeing that no one dared to come forward for a duel, Lu Bu, who had already become arrogant, simply took the initiative with the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry and attacked continuously, continuously attacking the various units of the coalition forces, causing chaos wherever he went.

When he attacked Gongsun Zan's troops, he finally met his opponent.

"Look here, you slave of three surnames! Zhang Fei from Yan is here!"

The so-called three surnames, Lü Bu's own surname was Lü, after he worshipped Ding Yuan as his adoptive father, his surname became Ding, and after he worshipped Dong Zhuo as his adoptive father, he naturally changed his surname to Dong.

This was shouted very loudly, and Lu Bu also heard it.

There is no doubt that the furious Lu Bu immediately rushed forward to fight with Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei’s second brother is Guan Yu, and Guan Yu’s most prominent character trait is his arrogance.

Guan Yu would absolutely disdain to join forces with others to fight the enemy.

But there are always exceptions, and Lu Bu is the first exception.

Seeing that his third brother could hardly hold on any longer, he hurried forward to help, and the two of them joined forces to fight Lu Bu.

But even so, the two of them still couldn't hold on together.

Liu Bei did not hesitate and immediately joined the battle. This was the famous battle between the three heroes and Lu Bu.

Dong Zhuo, who was standing on the top of Hulao Pass and saw this scene, said, "Today I know how brave Zihou is~~~"

It was clearly Lu Bu's highlight moment, but the person Dong Zhuo was praising was Chen Ran.

The reason is simple, Chen Ran once defeated such a powerful Lu Bu!

A sure win in a one-on-one situation.

Don't be at a disadvantage when facing two people at one time.

But when it was one against three, Lu Bu couldn't hold on any longer.

He had no choice but to turn his horse around and run away.

The three brothers chased after him closely, but they saw Lu Bu running away in front of them, shouting loudly towards the direction of the camp, and his voice shook the whole area.

"Brother, help me~~~~~~"
