Chapter 346 Dong Zhuo's Helplessness

"Fengxian, don't misunderstand."

Seeing that Lü Bu was about to turn against his subordinates, Dong Zhuo immediately stopped shouting, "This must be an attack from the rebel army."

Lu Bu was taken aback: "It's not the general's order."

Dong Zhuo shook his head: "Come here, let's see what's going on?"

Dong Zhuo guessed right, it was Liu Bei who led the army to attack.

After Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Yuan Shu led 2000 troops to ambush the Xiliang army, the Bingzhou camp was on fire. Liu Bei also wanted to lead the army out.

But Jia Xu didn't speak, and he couldn't move because of his anxiety.

Later, when Jia Xu saw Lu Bu leaving the camp, Jia Xu ordered to march.

Use Yuan Shu's Ranger Battalion to wipe out Xiliang's hidden sentries, Bai Mu soldiers clear the way, and Guan Yu's Xiyuan elite follow up.

The Xiliang army was caught off guard by the Lucheng army, and the various ministries in Xiliang retreated one by one.

Dong Zhuo hadn't waited for the general who had inquired about the news to come back, but when he encountered retreating Xiliang soldiers, Dong Zhuo grabbed a retreating soldier and asked, "Who is it? Who dares to attack a certain family?"

The soldier's bile burst from being frightened by Dong Zhuo's ferocious face, his face suddenly turned sallow, and Dong Zhuo was horrified to death.

Unluckily, Dong Zhuo threw the man on the ground, and waved to a captain-looking man: "You, come here."

"Lord."

The captain said with a stern look on his face: "My lord, I'll kill you right now, kill me back."

"return."

Dong Zhuo shouted loudly, Dong Zhuo's patriarchal style was deeply rooted in the Xiliang army.

"My lord, what are your orders?"

Dong Zhuo glared at the captain: "Useless trash, who dares to attack XX."

"My lord, I don't know, I just saw the banner with Liu characters, it seems, there seems to be a banner with Yuan characters."

"Who is a certain Tao? So it's Liu Bei, no wonder he has such courage. Haha!"

When Dong Zhuo heard Liu Zi Daqi, he subconsciously thought of Liu Bei, and couldn't help laughing.

The generals in Xiliang were horrified when they heard Liu Bei's name. Hua Xiong, the number one warrior in Xiliang, led the elite, and they were all beaten by Liu Bei.

"My lord, withdraw!"

All the generals in Xiliang persuaded him one after another, but no one dared to pull Dong Zhuo away.

Lu Bu saw more and more routs retreating, grabbed Dong Zhuo, and pushed him onto the horse: "Father, let's go."

Seeing that Dong Zhuo got on his horse, all the generals in Xiliang got on their horses one after another, surrounded Dong Zhuo and left in a hurry.

Dong Zhuo withdrew while mobilizing Xiliang soldiers to resist, and there were more and more soldiers and horses around him one after another. Dong Zhuo became more courageous: "If you kill a certain person, you will not believe it. A certain person has ruled the world for dozens of years, and you are afraid that he will be a little boy." Little Liu Bei, let someone kill you back."

"promise!"

Dong Zhuo personally led thousands of Xiliang troops back and fought with the remnants of the Xiliang army. As soon as Dong Zhuo came, Yuan Shu's troops retreated first, and Guan Yu's troops also retreated.

Liu Bei had no choice but to lead the Bai Mu soldiers to break through.

When Zhang Liao broke through the encirclement, he ran into the Lucheng army's scouts. He was overjoyed to learn that Liu Bei's army had ambushed Dong Zhuo's army, so he returned to the Bingzhou camp.

Zhang Liao watched the Xiliang soldiers withdraw from the Bingzhou army one after another, knowing that Liu Bei's army had dealt Dong Zhuo a heavy blow.

Zhang Liao looked at his subordinates behind him and said, "Brothers, Lord Jianyang is dead, Lv Bu rebelled, and thousands of brothers were detained by Dong Thief. You all know the cruelty of Dong Thief. The fate of these thousands of brothers is self-evident. Say we can leave them alone?"

"No, no."

Everyone is from Bingzhou, so naturally they can't watch the Xiangdang die.

"Then go back with XX and rescue the brothers."

Zhang Liao entered the Bingzhou camp, where there were very few Xiliang troops left, and a large number of Bingzhou troops were organized to fight the fire.

"Brothers, the lord is dead, and those who don't want to be killed by Dong Zhuo should go back to Bingzhou with someone."

Zhang Liao was also considered a famous general in the Bingzhou Army, he raised his arms, and the Bingzhou Army, who had long been unwilling to be a prisoner, immediately joined Zhang Liao's team, followed Zhang Liao out of the Bingzhou Army's camp, and then fled in all directions.

After Dong Zhuo killed Liu Bei's army, he inspected the troops around him, and in just over an hour, he lost thousands of people, without bringing the Bingzhou Army, which was originally in his pocket.

"Back to the city."

The overall situation finally returned to his own hands. Although Dong Zhuo felt distressed, this was a relatively acceptable result for him.

When Dong Zhuo returned to the South Palace that day, the fire in the North Palace had already been extinguished, and all the ministries in the capital were under his control, but Liu Bei and Yuan Shu were nowhere to be seen, and neither did they after that.

"My lord, it's not too late to dethrone the emperor. I heard that Liu Bei's Lucheng army is marching towards the capital one by one. If you don't abolish the emperor soon, it will be troublesome for Liu Bei to come to the Qing emperor's side with the queen mother in his arms."

Li Ru said immediately after seeing Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo nodded: "Okay, just take advantage of today's threat of defeating Liu Bei and killing Ding Yuan to frighten all officials, let's see who else dares to disobey."

Dong Zhuo summoned the ministers in the province and ordered Lu Bu to have more than a thousand soldiers and guards around him.

Grand Tutor Yuan Kui and all the officials arrived.

Dong Zhuo walked up to the hall with his sword, glared at the prince and said, "Nowadays, the emperor is weak and cannot worship the ancestral temple. According to the story of Yiyin and Huo Guang, I will abolish the emperor as the Hongnong king and make Chenliu the emperor. Anyone who does not follow will be executed!"

When Yuan Shao heard the words, he pushed the seat and said: "You have not been on the throne for a long time, and you have not lost your virtue; if you want to abolish your son and establish a concubine, what is the opposite?" Dong Zhuo was furious, drew his sword in his hand, and said, "I am in charge of the world! I am here today. For this, who dares not to obey! Do you think my sword is not good?"

Yuan Shao also drew his sword and said, "Your sword is sharp, but my sword is not bad?"

The two stared at each other for a long time, and all the officials advised them to calm down.

Dong Zhuo wanted to call Lu Bu to kill Yuan Shao, but Li Ru stopped him with his gaze.

Yuan Kai took the opportunity to stand out and said: "Zhu Zi knows the important affairs of the country, so he should retreat quickly."

Yuan Shao retracted his sword upon hearing the sound, bid farewell to all the officials and left.

Dong Zhuo looked at Yuan Kai angrily and said, "Your nephew openly rebelled against the minister. I see you letting your nephew go. Do you think I can abolish the establishment?"

"But also!"

Yuan Shu and Liu Bei were nowhere to be found, so Yuan Kai had to do his best to protect the future head of the Yuan family.

"Humph!"

Dong Zhuo snorted angrily, and immediately asked King Chen Liu to come out to meet all the officials.

All the officials dispersed, and Dong Zhuo stayed alone to serve Zhong Zhou and Wu Qiong, the school captain.

The two were terrified.

Dong Zhuo said, "How is Yuan Shao going?"

The attendant, Zhou Wei, was a nobleman in Guanxi, and he had a good relationship with Dong Zhuo. He said: "Yuan Shao left in a fit of anger. If he was in a hurry, he would be changed. Moreover, the fourth generation of the Yuan family has favored the fourth generation, and his disciples and old officials are all over the world; if you recruit heroes to gather together Disciples, heroes are born because of this, and Shandong is not owned by the public. It is better to pardon him and worship him as a county guard, then Shaoxi will be forgiven, and there will be no trouble."

What Zhou Yan meant was that if Yuan Shao is pushed into a hurry, Yuan Shao will inevitably rebel. If you want to save trouble, why don't you let him be the prefect of a small remote county.

Wu Qiong thought about it for a while and said, "Yuan Shao is always scheming, so it's nothing to worry about; it's really not worth adding a county guard to win the hearts of the people."

Dong Zhuo nodded: "What about Liu Bei?"

Wu Qiong said: "Liu Bei is no more than a merchant, and it all depends on the late emperor's promotion, otherwise he would not have the momentum he has today. With the imperial decree of the Ming Dynasty, a pavilion chief can be killed!"

Zhou Wei shook his head: "I think otherwise, Liu Bei will be a fierce general! If you meet the Lord of the Ming Dynasty, it will be a serious disaster. Liu Yu of Youzhou, an important minister of the clan, has been in Youzhou for a long time. If he raises an army, Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan will be the vanguard. Block it?"

Dong Zhuo shook his head lightly, he could only get one of the three heroes in Northern Xinjiang, and Liu Yu got the second, with one against two, the prospects might not be good.

"How to solve this dilemma?"

Dong Zhuo asked.

"It's better to give him a prefect of a county like Yuan Shao, so that he can use his remaining heat in the frontier, which can separate him from Liu Yu and trap him in government affairs."

Dong Zhuo nodded: "Divide and conquer, yes, where do you think Liu Bei should go?"

Zhou Wei: "The best places are Yunzhong and Dingxiang. In short, the farther the better."

Wu Qiong said: "Someone disagrees."

"Let me think about it."

Dong Zhuo hesitated.

Wu Qiong and Zhou Yan saw the opportunity and left.

Li Ru came out from the screen, Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru: "What do you think of what they said?"

Li Rudao: "I think what they said is right, especially since Zhou Yu is from Kansai, he should not harm the lord."

Li Ru is good at military affairs and conspiracy, but he is not so good at politics.

Dong Zhuo laughed and said, "It was so hard to get Yuan Shao, Liu Bei and others down, and now they are appointed officials. Are they still princes of the same place? It's ridiculous."

Li Rudao: "As long as the lord controls the court, Bianjun will let them play!"

"It can only be so."

Li Rudao: "About Liu Bei, someone feels that the prefect of a county is helping him, so it is better to let him be the governor of Bingzhou."

"The governor?"

Dong Zhuo's eyes widened, this is what made Liu Bei rise to the top!

"Duke Ming, you should know whether the governor's weight is the prefect's weight. How difficult is it for him to command the prefects of various counties? As long as Liu Bei has a little ambition, he will be trapped in the maelstrom of Bingzhou."

Li Ru sneered.
