The Three Kingdoms: My Wife is a Great and Good Teacher

Yes, the siege vehicles have reached the city gate, but where are those talented people under Dong Zhuo?

Even if it was a weak or even weaker person, if he rushed out at this time, or launched an attack from the top of the city wall, he would at least give the siege troops a hard time.

"They should have all been taken to attack Kong Jun, right?" Han Fu guessed.

Later, Han Fu discovered that the siege equipment in front had been attacking the city gate, but the city gate showed no sign of shaking.

"The city gate has been reinforced." Tian Feng said at this time, "Dong Zhuo... knows we are coming."

Han Fu frowned, then ordered the siege troops to attack the city with all their might.

But until sunset, the city gate showed no sign of being blown open.

"My lord, the siege vehicle has been damaged and the second one is still behind. We have to go back to rest and come back tomorrow, or we can lay siege to the city." Gao Lan came to Han Fu and said.

Han Fu was silent for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "Withdraw."

Although Luoyang was captured in less than a day, Han Fu knew that this was the normal situation.

Even if Dong Zhuo went to attack Kong Jun, she would definitely be on guard against anyone attacking Luoyang.

As the army retreated, the sky gradually darkened.

After a day of fighting, even if there was no one charging, standing under the June sun for half a day would be exhausting.

As the night climbed up the sky, wisps of smoke began to rise from the camp. The fire caused by the camp of 120,000 people could illuminate very far.

This naturally also includes the mountain range adjacent to Luoyang, Mangshan.

On a high slope at the foot of Mount Mang, a large number of soldiers were standing motionless in the forest.

They did not raise any torches, and there was only a faint light in one place, which was in a luxurious carriage in the center of the army.

The reason why it is an exception is that the person sitting in this carriage is the current emperor of the Han Dynasty.

Beside the emperor's carriage, a woman riding a white wolf with a scar on its eye was looking intently at the place where the lights were like torches and the smoke from cooking was rising into the sky.

Her purple eyes reflected the sparkling fire in the distance, as if she saw the most beautiful scenery at night she had ever seen.

But it’s not enough, it’s not the most beautiful.

The next moment, a tiny fire light appeared like a star in the distance near the Yellow River, far away from the army’s camp.

"Your Majesty, come and take a look." Dong Zhuo said to the people in the emperor's carriage beside him.

Then he signaled to the coachman to draw the curtain.

After the coachman bowed his head and respectfully did as he was told, a young man in the carriage, wearing imperial robes, looked at Dong Zhuo fearfully, then looked at the person Dong Zhuo was looking at and put down his hand.

He saw the "stars".

"what is that?"

The next second, the "stars" turned into a golden "flower", and then turned into a "cluster of flowers".

Now the young emperor understood: "That is... fire."

"It's the flame of shattered hope. This is the most beautiful scenery." Dong Zhuo smiled.

"However, it is a bit regrettable that we cannot see their expressions here."

"Isn't that right, my Lords?"

Dong Zhuo looked back at the group of Han officials in official uniforms following the emperor's carriage. No one dared to answer his question.

Although they were very angry, they were helpless. All they could do was pray to God for a miracle so that Han Fu's army could turn defeat into victory.

But this is even more impossible than a meteorite falling from the sky and killing Dong Zhuo.

"Li Jue and Guo Si, each of you take 10,000 soldiers and go to support Hou Cheng who is burning the rebels' food supplies." Dong Zhuo ordered his men.

"Here!"

“And the rest, come with me to kill the remaining rebel army.” Dong Zhuo said with a grim look.

The next moment, a large number of torches suddenly lit up in the originally pitch-black forest where she was. At a glance, almost the entire foot of Mount Mang was filled with the army.

This is Dong Zhuo's main force, and she has been waiting for Han Fu here for a long time.

At this moment, the tent where Han Fu was was already in chaos.

When Han Fu learned that the food and grass in the rear were burned, he couldn't believe it and even asked who did it.

Before he could come to his senses, someone suddenly shouted, "Look, look over there on the mountain!"

When everyone looked up, they saw that the flames formed by countless torches almost covered the entire foot of the mountain.

Dong Zhuo obviously did it on purpose in order to disrupt the army.

And he did it too.

Tian Feng let out a deep breath. What was supposed to come finally came.

At this time, Gao Lan, Zhang He and other generals were stunned for a moment, then they immediately put on their armor, picked up their weapons, and went to stabilize the morale of the army and deal with the invading enemy.

It is definitely too late to retreat now, and only fighting to the death can give us a chance of survival.

"How...how come you are really here..." Han Fu murmured in a daze.

At this time, Tian Feng came up to him, looked at his appearance, and said loudly: "My lord!"

"We have an army of 120,000. We are not completely powerless to fight against Dong Zhuo!"

"Yes, yes! I have an army of 120,000!" Han Fu suddenly reacted.

Then he saw that it was Tian Feng who reminded him, and he felt mixed emotions.

Then he quickly calmed down and said, "Quick, tell Zhang Yang and the others not to panic, we can still fight Dong Zhuo!"

Seeing that Han Fu was able to recover, Tian Feng was finally able to feel relieved.

This also means that they may still have a chance of survival.

However, the situation of inevitable defeat is irreversible, unless a miracle happens...

-

At this moment, on the opposite side of the Yellow River, the army led by Liu Zhaoqing and Cao Cao just arrived here.

Seeing the flames rising into the sky in the distance, everyone was speechless.

After watching for a while, Cao Cao turned his head to look at Liu Zhaoqing and spoke first: "It seems that Zhaoqing still overestimated him."

Liu Zhaoqing: “…”

Liu Zhaoqing really didn't expect Han Fu to be so eager to cross the river. It would have been fine if he just crossed the river, but what courage did he have to set up the food and fodder across the Yellow River?

The other side didn't even need to cross the river to burn his supplies.

Moreover, when he was fighting against Dong Zhuo in front of Luoyang City, didn't he ever think that even if the other side did not fight back and defended Luoyang to the death, he would not be able to capture it?

Chapter 277 Secretly Entering Luoyang, Meeting Cai Yan and Ji Ling, Fighting Lü Bu Alone

Liu Zhaoqing thought that Han Fu would hide on the side of the Yellow River. After all, his personality was the type that would never take action unless he felt the situation was stable.

Although his move might seem ridiculous, at least he wasn't the kind of person who would be blindly confident in the face of a known strong enemy.

As long as Han Fu can retreat and defend himself, Dong Zhuo will definitely be the first one to get impatient, after all, Kong Rong's advance will not stop.

As long as Dong Zhuo crossed the river to outflank and pursue Han Fu, Dong Zhuo's supply line would be stretched, and the natural barrier of the Yellow River would make it difficult for Dong Zhuo's army to retreat.

At that time, Liu Zhaoqing would be able to lead his troops to secretly cross the Yellow River, find the food and grass of the enemy army and burn their retreat.

But obviously, Liu Zhaoqing did not expect such a change, and did not expect Han Fu to be so anxious.

Fortunately, this is not beyond repair.

"Han Fu's army is very large. If it's as expected, it should be close to 100,000." Xun Yu said. Although she didn't know that Han Fu had recruited a large number of soldiers again, it did not affect her conclusion.

"Although Han Fu is incompetent, his generals are all capable and capable people. Dong Zhuo is unlikely to defeat them in a short period of time, and will definitely be stuck in a stalemate for a long time."

"At this time, we can choose to swallow up Dong Zhuo's team that is burning food and grass." Xun Yu said.

"But, simply taking down this team won't change the situation of the battle, right?" Zhao Yun asked doubtfully.

"It can't change the situation, but it can distract Dong Zhuo." Liu Zhaoqing explained for Xun Yu, "But in this way, we will be targeted."

"Yes." Xun Yu nodded, "This is the way to rescue Han Fu's army."

"But we are here to defeat Dong Zhuo, or at least kill his elite troops in small but repeated attacks, right?" Cao Cao said calmly.

The meaning of these words was very clear. The 5,000 soldiers they brought were not here to rescue people, and Han Fu's life or death had nothing to do with them.

Cao Cao did not care about the life and death of Han Fu and his subordinates. After all, Han Fu was a mediocre person and he was lucky enough to occupy the position of Governor of Jizhou.

And if she considers Liu Zhaoqing's perspective, it might not be a bad thing for Han Fu and his army to die here.

In this way, Liu Zhaoqing's future rise will be smoother.

"This is indeed our purpose." Liu Zhaoqing nodded slightly.

"but……"

"But what?" asked Cao Cao.

“But now how can we try our best to kill Dong Zhuo’s elite troops?” After Liu Zhaoqing finished speaking, he was a little surprised to see Cao Cao heaved a sigh of relief.

"I thought you were going to say, 'But Han Fu should also be saved,'" Cao Cao said.

"..."

Liu Zhaoqing certainly didn't care about Han Fu's life or death. Compared with Han Fu, Liu Zhaoqing cared more about the generals under his command, and those outstanding generals would certainly not die so easily.

Therefore, as long as Liu Zhaoqing led the team to kill as many elite troops as possible from Dong Zhuo, he would also indirectly give those people a chance to survive.

"Since Dong Zhuo is going to destroy Han Fu's army, he will definitely lay siege. However, to encircle 120,000 people, 100,000 elite soldiers will definitely not be enough. Dong Zhuo will definitely transfer ordinary soldiers from Luoyang." Xun Yu said.

The situation on the battlefield is ever-changing. Although it is somewhat different from what was expected, the essence has not changed.

The goal of Liu Zhaoqing's team is still mainly based on sneak attacks.

"Then the garrison in Luoyang will definitely be empty." Zhang Liao seemed to understand what Xun Yu meant.

"Yes." Xun Yu nodded: "We need to enter Luoyang. We don't need too many people, even just a few people will do. Find the place where Dong Zhuo's military supplies are in Luoyang and burn them."

"Not only will it destroy their food supplies, but the fire in Luoyang will also cause chaos in Dong Zhuo's army outside. If there are generals in Han Fu's army who can seize the opportunity, it will not be difficult to break out."

"But how do we get into Luoyang?" asked Cao Ren beside Cao Cao.

Xun Yu looked at Liu Zhaoqing and said, "Show your identity."

"what?"

While Liu Zhaoqing was surprised, Cao Cao's eyes lit up: "Since Dong Zhuo's elite soldiers have left, the people guarding the gate must be ordinary soldiers."

"But what if the other party doesn't know me, or doesn't dare to open the city gate?" Xiahou Dun asked at this time.

"That's why we need to gamble." Xun Yu said.

"We are the one that wins the hearts and minds of the people."

Liu Zhaoqing pondered for a moment, looked at the fire on the other side, and then said, "This is the only way."

"So if we go in and burn the food and grass, do we have to leave immediately?" Zhao Yun continued to ask at this time.

"Yes." Xun Yu nodded. "Five thousand of us would make too much noise. This mission is best accomplished by only a few people. Even if we can lead the whole team in and successfully occupy Luoyang, we will be surrounded by Dong Zhuo afterwards."

"If Han Fu was Yuan Shao or someone else, we might still be able to hope that they could help us attack Dong Zhuo together, but Han Fu is not one of the others, and the surrounded army is already demoralized."

"Secondly, and most importantly, Dong Zhuo has a key hostage."

"Hostage?" Cao Ren didn't understand.

"The Emperor of the Han Dynasty." Liu Zhaoqing gave the answer.

Yes, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty was going to enter Luoyang City. How could the coalition forces, which had risen in the name of fighting against the traitor Dong, not open the city gates to welcome him?

Perhaps Dong Zhuo had thought of this when he took the emperor out?

"What about after we burn the food?" Xiahou Dun asked at this time: "When Dong Zhuo sends his men back, we must have already left. With the prosperity of Luoyang City, we can buy food again in a few days. We are taking such a risk only to buy a chance for Han Fu's army to break out."

"That's right." Xun Yu nodded, "What we want is to disrupt Dong Zhuo and allow Han Fu's army to break through."

Liu Zhaoqing also understood Xun Yu's meaning and what she wanted to do, and immediately said: "After Han Fu breaks out, he will definitely retreat and escape. In that case, it will return to the situation we predicted at the beginning."

"It is also."
