After crossing Hangu Pass, Cao Cao was surprised to find that there were completely two worlds outside the pass and inside the pass.
It was calm outside Hangu Pass, as if the world was peaceful, but inside the pass it was completely chaotic.
In the counties around Chang'an, Xiliang soldiers could be seen burning, killing, looting, and even setting fire to the city from time to time.
This is not over yet. After one wave of Xiliang soldiers destroyed it, another wave of Xiliang soldiers rushed out to strangle the rebels.
In line with the principle of not taking advantage of the bastard, Cao Jun made a fortune all the way. Not only did he replenish the baggage he had used when he was stationed outside Hangu Pass, but he also made a fortune.
Just then, Cao Jun swallowed up another small group of troops and was collecting the spoils of war.
In ancient times, productivity was low, and weapons and armor were a top priority. With these trophies, Cao Cao could raise an army in an instant.
On the contrary, if there are no weapons and armor, even if you recruit soldiers, they will just be peasants without weapons.
Among the princes, Dong Zhuo was undoubtedly the richest, and the equipment of the Xiliang soldiers was also the best.
At this time, there was a flying horse coming from the front.
Report! ~
The scout stopped in front of Cao Cao's carriage and quickly dismounted.
"Reporting to the lord, a large cavalry force was spotted ahead."
Xiliang cavalry!
Cao Cao's heart skipped a beat. He really came to whatever he was afraid of.
Among Cao Cao's 30,000 troops, there were only 5,000 cavalry, and the remaining 25,000 were infantry. Encountering a large group of cavalry on the plain was simply a nightmare.
Run, Can't run away. Cao Cao can't leave all his infantry and run away.
Fighting would be too disadvantageous. As we all know, the Xiliang Flying Bear Cavalry is brave and good at fighting, and is definitely the overlord among the cavalry. And there are many of the 5,000 cavalry in Cao Cao's army that he has never seen before.
A discerning eye can tell which of the bloody recruits are better and worse at a glance.
"Have you seen the number of enemy troops clearly?
The scout bowed again and said,"There are about ten thousand people in this vast area.""
Cao Cao gritted his teeth and ordered to Cao Ren beside him:"Line up! Prepare to meet the enemy!"
"promise!"
Before Cao Ren could turn his horse around, he saw another flying horse running towards Cao Cao's carriage.
The man was not a scout. He was eight feet long and handsome. He was carrying a nine-foot spear.
Xiahou Dun, named Yuan Rang.
Cao Cao One of his favorite generals, he is also synonymous with the fierce generals in Cao's army. But that was before Zhang Wu surrendered to Cao Cao.
Xiahou Dun did not dismount, but only clasped his fists at Cao Cao on horseback:"My lord, Li Jue has arrived to ask for an audience. In front of the former military formation"
"Li Jue, it’s actually Li Jue! This guy is Dong Zhuo's best friend. Why does he want to see me?"
"He did not tell the general, he only said that he wanted to meet the lord."
"Don't worry, my lord." Guo Jia picked up the wine gourd on his waist next to the carriage and wanted to take a few sips, but found that the gourd only had fresh water instead of fine wine, and he laughed awkwardly:
"The Xiliang army has done many unjust things. If Dong Zhuo dies, the old army will be as frightened as a lost dog. My lord, go and have a look. Maybe there will be some surprises."
"Even though Dong Zhuo is dead, he still has 400,000 people in his old army. Is it possible that Li Jue can still join me?"
"The Lord will find out once he finds out."
Cao Cao followed Xiahou Dun to the front army formation with suspicion, and found that a group of cavalry were lined up behind Li Jue, holding their horses and sheathing their swords, with no intention of charging. Cao Cao was immediately convinced.
Even if this distance is real, When the fight started, the cavalry couldn't charge forward. Cao Cao was not afraid at all, and he even believed Guo Jia's words.
"General Zhiran asked to see me, Cao, by name. I don’t know what advice I can give."Because he was not sure whether the other party was coming to seek refuge with him, Cao Cao still spoke in a very polite tone.
After Cao Cao finished speaking, Li Jue and his generals got off their horses and knelt down on one knee:"I have seen my lord."
This move made Cao Cao a little confused. Even if they wanted to come to seek refuge with him, they didn't need to just call him lord. The normal process shouldn't be like
"Hey, how could Zhi Ran call someone Cao his lord? Li
Jue clasped his fists and said,"Before Chang'an executed Dong, I had been recruited by General Zhang Wu. I am willing to lead my lord's horse to the ground and charge into the formation. I also ask your lord not to abandon Li as a fool.""
Cao Cao was overjoyed, got off his horse and helped Li Jue up:"I have a general who is more powerful than a tiger, how dare I despise him. But since Dong Zhuo is dead, why not help Zi Qian stabilize the situation in Chang'an City?"
"Lord Rongzhen, after gathering the Feixiong Army, Sishui Pavilion was waiting for the general to gather the remnant army of Xiliang, while he led 20,000 Feixiong to guard Chang'an and wait for the Lord. During the march, the general saw the word"Cao" written in big letters. Flag, I knew it was my lord who was coming, so I came to pay my respects."
At that moment, Li Jue explained in detail how Zhang Wu broke through three thousand flying bear troops with one man and one horse, broke open the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion with a big gun, killed Dong Zhuo, and deceived the emperor.
Cao Cao's eyes shone brightly and he praised him for his bravery. '.
Xiahou Dun, who was following Cao Cao, didn't look convinced, and his fists clenched.
"Ziqian is not only the most brave general in the world, but also the most blessed general in the world. I am lucky to have him, I am lucky to have him!"
Cao Cao's old face was almost crooked with a smile. He had already begun to think about whether to betroth his four-year-old daughter to Zhang Wu as a son-in-law. Otherwise, Cao
Cao really wouldn't know what to reward him with. Anyway, that boy is as famous for his lust as his bravery. During the war, he even brought his female dependents with him. Even Yuan Shu, the playboy, didn’t dare to do this.
Killing Dong Zhuo, holding the emperor hostage, and collecting flying bears. If he can accomplish any of these three things, it will be a miracle. What a big harvest, but the boy was out for two months and finished it all.
Why was the Xiliang army able to dominate Luoyang and look down on the princes of the world? It was all because of the strength of the cavalry.
Cao Cao knew very well, and now he has recruited 30,000 With Fei Xiong, it won't be long before he can become the next Dong Zhuo and become the largest prince in the world.
Cao Cao believes even more that he is not Dong Zhuo and will not ruin his great future. Moreover, with Zhang Wu's allegiance, he is no better than Dong Zhuo. Weak.
After all, Zhang Wu Fourteen can defeat Lu Bu. In ten years, will there be anyone in the world who can be the opponent of that monster?.........
Zhang Wu, who was in Chang'an, didn't know that Cao Cao and Li Jue had already joined forces and rushed towards Chang'an.
Now he is extremely busy.
First, Lu Bu gathered some Xiliang soldiers and evacuated Chang'an.
Later, Guo Si incorporated Niu Fu's troops and built a high-walled stronghold in Xiwu to peek into Chang'an.
There was also the Baibo thief Yang Feng, who gathered some of the remaining troops and served the emperor under the guise of loyalty.
Zhang Wu could understand Lu Bu's running away. After all, Lu Bu had the fewest remnant troops to control, and because he was the one who betrayed Dong Zhuo, he was hostile to many of Dong Zhuo's old troops.
Chang'an would definitely not be able to tolerate him.
Guo Si devoured Xiwu's wealth and Zhang Wu could bear it for the time being. After Dong Zhuo died, Li Jue surrendered to the enemy again. He became the oldest general in the Xiliang army and had collected
200,000 Xiliang soldiers. He was temporarily crazy. It doesn't matter, since he doesn't have the guts to really launch an army to attack Chang'an anyway.
What disgusted Zhang Wu the most was that Yang Feng.
You said that you, a Baibo thief, had just been recruited, and you jumped out to act like a loyal minister and filial son.
But the emperor's ministers just fell in love with this trick.
You have three to five hundred people, and I have one or two thousand domestic slaves to deliver them to Yang Feng's military camp, asking for money, and equipment for equipment.
At this moment, Yang Fengshao said that he had mastered an army of no less than 50,000 people.
Yang Feng was like a toad lying on his feet. Zhang Wu was greedy for Guo Bin's wealth and wanted to send troops, but he was also afraid that Yang Feng would occupy Chang'an and kidnap the emperor. He doesn't bite.
He is really jealous.
Unfortunately, Zhang Wu had no way to kill him directly. The key was that there was no excuse.
There had already been a chaotic war in Chang'an because of the demand for Dong. At that time, the chaos could be said to be due to justice. Now it would be difficult to kill Yang Feng in name. If the war breaks out again, Baixin in Chang'an can drown Zhang Wu in one breath.
