Chapter 139: Zhao Hui's Opportunity

Yuan Shao and others joined forces to attack Dong Zhuo, which was the opportunity Zhao Hui had been waiting for.

This time the crusade was huge, but it ended in a hurry, which made Yuan Shao's fame stained with dust.

In the eyes of many scholars, Yuan Shao's status declined a lot after the end of this alliance.

This time, the attack on Dong Zhuo by the princes, also completely made the central government, which Dong Zhuo controlled, lose control of the local government.

Especially when Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an, the Chang'an government's order could never pass Luoyang again.

Even the edict that Dong Zhuo wanted to appoint Liu Yu as the Grand Tutor could not be given to Liu Yu.

In the eyes of these princes, the Chang'an government has become a decoration. When needed, it sends someone to send a memorial to send a letter of appointment to the Chang'an government.

When it is not necessary, even if you receive an imperial edict from the court, you will burn it and pretend that you have not seen it.

And the princes started one after another, and everyone wanted to annex others and strengthen themselves.

Yuan Shao's alliance this time not only failed to support the Han Dynasty, but also completely shook the foundation of the Han Dynasty.

Before this, even though Dong Zhuo was in chaos in politics, the Han Dynasty was still one, and local officials from all over the country were appointed by the court.

But after that, local officials from all over the country either appointed themselves as the prefect, the prefect, the governor, or appointed themselves as the governor, and then symbolically handed a memorandum to the central government.

Yuan Shao got himself a Jizhou governor, and then appointed Qingzhou governor and Bingzhou governor.

Tao Qian dared to report to Liu Bei as the governor of Yuzhou.

Two or three state pastors can appear at the same time in a state.

At this time, Zhao Hui could naturally stand up and talk about his prefect of Shanggu County.

Even if others know that he is a remnant of the Yellow Turbans, except for Gongsun Zan, who is also in Youzhou, who will attack Zhao Hui, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao and others will never let the enemies around them stop fighting, but will send troops from thousands of miles to attack him.

Although Gongsun Zan also won the title of White Horse General in Youzhou, Zhao Hui was completely confident that he defeated Gongsun Zan and occupied Youzhou in the future.

As for Liu Yu, the governor of Youzhou, Zhao Hui didn't care about it.

Liu Yu is indeed a kind and righteous person, and he is not just saying this with his mouth like Liu Bei.

Liu Yu is a person who is consistent in words and deeds. His abilities can completely benefit the people of a state.

But this is in a chaotic world. He who implements benevolence and righteousness to the end will eventually be unable to gain a foothold. He blocks others' path, and the result that he is doomed to be a tragedy.

Although Liu Bei also established his footsteps by benevolence and righteousness, he never ruthlessly when he should take action.

No matter who it is, no one dares to underestimate Liu Bei who speaks of kindness and righteousness.

Gongsun Zan had already set off with his troops, and Zhao Hui was not in a hurry to take action.

The Alliance Army on Yuan Shao's side attacked Dong Zhuo this time and moved the capital to Chang'an. The Alliance Army had more than half a year left.

Zhao Hui first sent a large number of horses to the battlefield to observe the battle situation.

During this period, none of Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and other princes had combat experience comparable to Dong Zhuo.

After more than 30 years of military career, Dong Zhuo has fought countless victories and failed.

Facing the Alliance Army on the three sides of the north and southeastern sides, Dong Zhuo did not feel much pressure in his heart, and he himself did not even go to the front line to command.

But he only sent several generals under his command to deal with the attacks of Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and other princes.

To the north, Dong Zhuo sent his son-in-law Niu Fu and Li Su, who was promoted to the General of the Hu Ben, to station troops with Mengjin and Xiaopingjin to prevent Yuan Shao, Wang Kuang and Gongsun Zan from crossing the river.

With natural danger to the Yellow River, as long as Niu Fu and Li Su defended Mengjin, Xiaopingjin, Yuan Shao's army would not dare to cross the Yellow River easily.

On the eastern front, Dong Zhuo sent generals Duan Wei, Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, Xu Rong and others to station in Chenggao, Xingyang, Xuanyuan Pass, and Taigu Pass to resist Cao Cao and Zhang Miao stationed in Sour Jujube.

On the southern line, headed by Hu Zhen and Huaxiong Lu Bu, he stationed at Guangcheng Pass and Yique Pass. He resisted Yuan Shu and Sun Jian stationed in Luyang.

Although the Kanto Alliance Army led by Yuan Shao had an army of more than 100,000.

But Dong Zhuo's troops in his hands will not be much less than theirs.

Dong Zhuo had already transferred all his 50,000 Xiliang troops, including the original imperial guards in Luoyang and the 20,000 Bingzhou troops from Bingzhou from behind.

Whether it is the Xiliang army or the Bingzhou army, they are all tigers and wolves, and the strength of only 50,000 imperial guards will be slightly worse, but this is also an imperial guards.

The troops of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others were almost all newly recruited, and many soldiers had not yet been trained.

It is extremely difficult to break through the layers of levels, enter Luoyang and kill Dong Zhuo by more than a dozen princes.

According to the news sent back by Zhao Hui, Dong Zhuo has more advantages.

Whether it is Yuan Shao on the northern line, Cao Cao on the eastern line, or Yuan Shu on the southern line, it is difficult for him to break through Dong Zhuo's defensive line.

On the eastern front where Cao Cao was located, all the princes gathered in the sour jujube. Seeing Dong Zhuo’s formation, many people had already given up the idea of ​​attacking Dong Zhuo.

These soldiers were just recruited by them, and no one wanted to waste their soldiers here in vain.

The world is in chaos, and my troops are ruined here. What capital will there be to protect my territory after I go back?

If we can break through Luoyang and kill Dong Zhuo, there may be some help.

But now it seems that even if they combined their powers together, they would not meet the requirements of killing Dong Zhuo.

Although Cao Cao was determined to send troops, Yuan Shao, as the leader of the alliance, was not in the sour jujube.

Although Cao Cao had a reputation, he left Luoyang later than Zhang Miao and others, and left behind with the failure to assassinate Dong Zhuo on his back.

Although he is famous, Cao Cao's current position is the lowest among these princes.

His current general Fenwu was given by Yuan Shao.

If Yuan Shao was here, most of these princes followed Yuan Shao at the beginning. Yuan Shao is now the leader of the alliance. Yuan Shao spoke in person and they would still obey.

But it was just Cao Cao, and Cao Cao himself only had 5,000 newly recruited recruits. Except for Zhang Miao and Bao Xin, who were friends with Cao Cao, no one paid attention to Cao Cao.

After staying in Hanoi for a few days, Gongsun Zan took his people around and joined the Sour Jujube Alliance.

Only Yuan Shao and Wang Kuang's men remain in Hanoi.

The Alliance Army faced Dong Zhuo's defense for several months without any progress.

As the leader of the Alliance Army, Yuan Shao is not in a hurry at all.

He was guarding in Hanoi. Although he sent someone to inquire about the situation in the sauna and Luyang, he never issued an order to launch an attack.

After spending a few months in this calm, Yuan Shao began to propose that they set up a new court and let Liu Yu, the governor of Youzhou, be the emperor.

However, his proposal was strongly opposed by Cao Cao, Yuan Shu and others.

When the news reached Liu Yu, Liu Yu also refused firmly.

Yuan Shao saw it clearly than other princes.

Over the past few months, although his army has not done anything, Yuan Shao has been thinking about the subsequent problems and various possible situations every day.
