Chapter 2043

The next day, the central army stopped and stopped marching towards Hulao Pass.

All the princes were very confused by this.

At this moment, the vanguard army headed by Zhou Ye is heading for Hulaoguan. It is about to rush into the capital and take down the head of the national traitor Dong Zhuo... Why is Yuan Shao, the leader of the army in the middle of the road? , suddenly stopped moving? ?

What kind of situation is this? ?

All the princes sent envoys to inquire...

In the end, the news we got was...the leader of the alliance, Yuan Shao, suddenly contracted a serious illness and was unable to lead the army...So, the current army is under the command of Yuan Shao's younger brother, Yuan Shu.

In view of Yuan Shao's physical condition, his younger brother Yuan Shu was deeply disturbed, so he decided to stop the march and make all decisions after Yuan Shao's condition improved.

For this reason that is not a reason, all the princes understood the Yuan brothers' thoughts in seconds.

You guys are planning to shrink back and let us fight to consume our power...

How many people who can achieve the position of one of the princes are not enough brains to count? ?

So, for a while, all the princes followed suit and stood still, pretending to be sick... You Yuan Shao is sick, so we can't get sick? ?

You see, we are also sick from water and soil problems... and we are all so sick that we can't march.

In an instant, a strange scene appeared on the entire land of the Central Plains, between the army of the Thieves Alliance and Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army...

Dong Zhuo's army, because of Zhou Ye's initial exertion, was in a state of panic all day long, for fear that one day Zhou Ye would lead the army to kill them, and what about the army of thieves? Instead of attacking Luoyang in one go, they repaired one by one on the spot...

This made Li Jue and Guo Si, who were in charge of guarding Hulao Pass, confused.

"Brother, what do you think Yuan Shao is planning?? Why did he suddenly stand still??" Guo Si said with a confused expression.

"Who knows!" Li Jue also looked confused, "The Jingzhou iron cavalry in Zhou Boyang was really powerful. Although there were only five thousand, they killed none of our thirty thousand troops... Now we only have less than five thousand horsemen left. With 20,000 people, we can only stick to this Hulao pass, and rely on the natural danger of Hulao to deal with them...Anyway, I won’t send troops no matter what!!”

"Brother is right..." Hearing Li Jue mentioned Zhou Ye, Guo Si couldn't help but shudder... "If it wasn't for Big Brother who desperately rescued me that day, maybe I would have died at the spear of that Blood Dragon Cavalry down!"

"You and my brother, what are you talking about!!" Li Jue waved his hand and said, "We are right here in Hulao Pass, waiting for those bandits to attack the city. When they attack, it will be the day of our revenge... ..."

"I will follow the lead of my elder brother!"

Just when the two were discussing the countermeasures, suddenly a soldier ran in from outside, "Report, report to the general... Our scout horse is back!"

"Oh? What are the gains!?" Hearing the report from the soldiers, Li Jue asked hastily.

"They seem to have captured a grain urging officer who came out of the White Horse Fortress...!" The soldiers reported.

"Food urging officer??" After thinking for a while, Li Jue ordered, "Press him up quickly!"

"Here!" The soldier responded, then turned and left the military tent.

Not too long ago, a young man who was tied up and covered in scars was brought to Li Jue.

"Let me ask you, who is your master?" Li Jue asked.

"My lord is Sun Jian and Sun Wentai, the prefect of Changsha!" The young man was also well-behaved and replied directly.

"Oh? How many days are there in your army??"

"I... I'm just a grain urging officer, how would I know that kind of thing?" The man replied with a bitter face.

"Since I don't know, what's the use of leaving you... drag it on, it's torn!"

Following Li Jue's order, several Xiliang soldiers rushed in like wolves and tigers, holding the man's shoulders and dragging him away...

This frightened the man quite a bit, "You know, you know... In Sun Jian's army, there are only three days of rations left..."

Hearing the man's words, Li Jue laughed loudly and said, "Since you've said it all, it's even more useless to keep you... drag it on, chop it up, and pay homage to my brothers who died in battle!"

"No...general...don't..."

Following the man's shrill cry, he was dragged out of the tent by several Xiliang soldiers.

"Brother, do you think this little school is telling the truth?" Guo Si asked.

"Hehe..." Li Jue laughed and said, "Although this small school is fake, I guess what he said must be the truth..."

"Fake?? How did the eldest brother see it?"

"How can one of his own subordinates call his lord by his name? He doesn't have the slightest respect for his lord. Will such a person be entrusted with important tasks?" Li Jue laughed.

"Brother is really amazing!!" Speaking of this, Guo Bang asked a little strangely: "But brother, since the grain urging officer is fake, why is the news he said true??"

"Hahaha...Second brother, you're still a little short of grasping people's hearts!" Li Jue laughed loudly and said, "I guess this grain urging officer must be a dead man sent by other princes, and his intention is to let us Go ahead and capture the White Horse Fortress... fight to the death with that Zhou Boyang, and they will be able to reap the benefits!"

"Why are they like this??"

"Eighteen princes, bah, except for Zhou Boyang of Jingzhou, the other princes are like grass in my eyes.

Mustard..." Li Jue said disdainfully: "This group of thieves, fighting for power and profit, will fight for their heads, and plan alliances to get ahead... marching and fighting, they are more idiots than one..."

"Brother, are we going to fight or not?" Guo Si asked.

"What kind of battle is going to happen? Lock the door and never fight!" Li Jue said with a smile: "They are fighting among themselves, we just need to wait... After a few days of starvation, Zhou Ye's army will be a man of iron, It will also become weak in hands and feet... At that time, we will naturally get out of the customs to avenge our shame!"

"Brother's trick..."

At this time, another Xiliang soldier rushed in and reported: "Report, general... Li Ru, the constant servant, leading 50,000 reinforcements, has arrived before the pass... is calling the pass!"

"Oh?? Hurry up!!" Hearing what the soldiers said, Li Jue was overjoyed, "Master Xiangguo really hasn't forgotten us... This is to send us reinforcements!"

"Second brother, quickly follow me to meet Master Li Ru!"

"yes!"

Li Jue and Guo Si walked out as soon as they took a step...

After a while, we came to the front of the pass...

Li Jue ordered people to open the city gate... Sure enough, a man dressed as a civil servant was standing in front of the army... none other than Dong Zhuo's advisor, Li Ru.

"Master Li Ru, you are really timely..." Seeing Li Ru, Li Jue immediately smiled and cupped his hands and said, "If Mr. Xiangguo doesn't send reinforcements, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold the Hulao Pass. !"

"Hahaha... General Li Jue is too modest. With the danger of a tiger prison, can the general not be able to defeat Zhou Ye and Zhou Boyang?" Li Ru laughed.
