236 Hulaoguan Battle 22

The duel between the coalition forces and Dong Zhuo is about to end. In the short duel, neither side lost much troops, and there was not even any large-scale battle. Dong Zhuo took the defensive at Hulao Pass to keep this war going indefinitely.

Delay it, for him

In other words, he wanted to bring down the coalition forces. The vast red land in Guandong, successive disasters, and the frequent outbreaks of the Yellow Turban remnants directly led to the shortage of food in Guandong. In contrast, Dong Zhuo was in Hulao, with Aocang as his back, and his troops

Having enough food and abundant food does have a huge advantage.

In the past two days, everything inside and outside Hulao Pass was calm. Another day passed as the sun rose and set. When night fell, bright firelight rose in Hulao Pass, dispelling the darkness of the night and bringing out the light.

The coalition forces outside Hulao Pass were making intensive preparations. An army of hundreds of thousands quietly drove to Hulao Pass and lurked in the dense forest outside the pass, waiting for the changes inside Hulao Pass.

In Hulao Pass, Dong Zhuo, who was not aware of the imminent war at all, was still enjoying himself in time in his official residence. The beauties brought from Luoyang filled his official residence. Naked women came and went in the official residence, with their billowy breasts

The gushing scene naturally became a beautiful scenery in the official residence, which feasted the eyes of the soldiers guarding Dong Zhuo's official residence.

In the hall of the official residence, the lights were brightly lit, and the sound of music could not be heard. The women kept bringing wine and meat to the hall. In the center of the hall, there were more than a dozen women wrapped in gauze dancing.

Dong Zhuo was lying on the couch, holding two beauties in his arms, surrounded by several plump women, serving wine, picking up vegetables, beating his legs, and pinching his back.

Serving this obese man who was also naked, he served him conscientiously, with a forced smile on his face.

"Master drinks wine... Master eats vegetables..." The beauty served Dong Zhuo obediently, making cooing sounds from time to time to seduce him, which made Dong Zhuo extremely happy.

On the side of the couch, several women with plump breasts were squeezing milk from their breasts, and several young girls were holding bowls underneath, daring not to slack off at all. When the bowl of milk was full, they

He hurriedly carried it to the couch, knelt on the ground, raised the bowl of milk in his hand, and shouted softly: "Master, please use it!"

The special person took the bowl of milk, poured it into the wine bowl, mixed it, and brought it to Dong Zhuo's mouth. A bright smile appeared on his face, and he said in a cooing voice: "Master, eat milk wine..."

Dong Zhuo laughed happily, opened his mouth and drank a large bowl of fresh milk. At the same time, he picked up a plump beauty next to him. There were two peaks on the beauty's chest.

At the same time, another beautiful woman sat on his waist, twisting her plump buttocks,

The other beauties hurriedly withdrew at this time, the music stopped, the dancing also stopped, and the lively hall suddenly disappeared, leaving only Dong Zhuo and the two beauties having fun. Immediately afterwards, the hall was full of people.

There were moans from two beauties and a low roar from an old man.

Not long after, the quiet night suddenly became particularly noisy. There were horses neighing and people barking everywhere, and the chaotic sound of horse hooves also continued. A general wearing armor walked straight into the hall and saw Dong Zhuo and the two

Beauty is

Zai Hexiu, without saying a word, rushed up quickly, pulled the two women away, clasped his fists and said: "Grand Master, Lu Bu has rebelled and has already reached the front of the mansion. Now the Flying Bear Army is struggling to resist. Please, Taishi."

Master, follow me quickly!"

Dong Zhuo was shocked. The raised area suddenly softened. He hurriedly stood up from the couch and exclaimed: "What did you say? Lu Bu is plotting rebellion?"

The general's appearance was somewhat similar to Dong Zhuo's, and he was much younger than Dong Zhuo. He had a determined look on his face. He was Dong Min, Dong Zhuo's younger brother. He didn't have time to explain too much, so he shouted to the two beauties: "Hurry up!

The grand master dresses."

The two beauties did not dare to disobey and hurriedly picked up Dong Zhuo's clothes from the couch and covered Dong Zhuo's body.

At this time, a group of cavalry came in from outside the hall. The knights were all wearing iron armor. They also brought two high-quality Xiliang horses. They shouted in unison: "Master, please mount your horse!"

Dong Min grabbed Dong Zhuo and took Dong Zhuo out of the hall. He helped the fat Dong Zhuo onto the horse, then climbed onto the horse himself and shouted to the people behind him: "Go through the back door, quickly!"

Dong Zhuo was very upset and wanted to use the red rabbit horse to bribe Lu Bu. Why would Lu Bu rebel? He had been given high-ranking officials, generous salaries, gold and silver treasures. He didn't believe that a greedy man like Lu Bu would rebel against him. But he also

He would not doubt his younger brother, and when he gritted his teeth with hatred, he said angrily: "Damn Lu Fengxian, I will never spare him..."

After exiting the back door of the official residence, there were already hundreds of flying bear troops waiting there, and the surrounding area of ​​the official residence was even more illuminated by fire. The air was filled with the smell of burning paste, illuminating the entire Hulao Pass as if it were daytime, not because of the lights, but because of the lights.

It was because of the fire that fires broke out everywhere in Hulao Pass.

Dong Zhuo, escorted by Dong Min and the Fei Xiong Army, quickly left the official residence and headed towards the west gate. As soon as he walked to the straight avenue, he saw messy Xiliang soldiers everywhere, many of them burned by the fire.

Shouting in pain in the sea of ​​fire, there were still some Xiliang cavalry running around, not knowing what to do.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" Dong Min opened the way first and escorted Dong Zhuo towards the west gate. Along the way, he met Xiliang cavalry who were blocking the way. No matter who they were, they all were killed.

At this time, the east gate of Hulao Pass had been opened. Zhang Liao led his soldiers to control the entire city gate. The coalition forces that had been waiting outside the pass also rushed over. Cao Cao led Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Xiahou Dun, and Cao Ren.

, Cao Chun, Cao Hong, Xia Houyuan and other generals led five thousand tiger and leopard cavalry to rush over first, and took advantage of the momentum to enter Hulao Pass.

The pass was already a sea of ​​fire, and all four main camps were on fire. Most of the Xiliang soldiers who were still sleeping in the camp were burned to death, and the rest all fled towards the west gate. While Lu Bu's Bingzhou soldiers were setting fires everywhere, they all gathered together.

In the area around the treasury, they completely occupied the treasury. Under the protection of Zhang Yang and others, they guarded the place and waited for the arrival of the Kwantung Allied Forces.

Lu Bu and Wei Xu led the cavalry to break through the defense line of the Flying Bear Army and quickly rushed into the mansion. Except for a panicked naked woman in the yard, Dong Zhuo had long since disappeared. He randomly grabbed a

The beauty shouted loudly and asked: "Where is the old thief Dong Zhuo?"

The beauty panicked, pointed at the back door, and squatted on the ground, covering the key parts of her body.

Lu Bu glanced at the beauties present, and immediately said to Wei Xu behind him: "These are all bitches who are willing to be Dong Zhuo's slaves. They provide Dong Zhuo with pleasure all day long. They will all be executed without leaving a single one behind!"

Wei Xu said "Promise" and led his men on a killing spree in the official residence. They would kill women whenever they saw them. Some of them were lustful, so they would drag the women into the room and rape them. After the pleasure was over, they would kill them again.

He carried out killings and did almost the same thing as Dong Zhuo's men.

Lu Bu didn't have that much free time to stay here. After he handed over the official residence to Wei Xu, he chased him out of the back door with two hundred cavalry. As for how Wei Xu dealt with those women, that was none of his business.

.

Lu Bu's Red Rabbit Horse was so fast that he quickly left his own men behind in the chaos and clashed among the panicked soldiers of Xiliang. The square-shaped painted halberd went wherever it went and killed them, never leaving a single person alive.

His eyes also showed an extremely fierce light, and unknowingly, he followed the fleeing rebels to the west gate and met Gao Shun.

"Where is Dong Zhuo?" Lu Bu reined in his horse, stopped directly in front of Gao Shun, and shouted loudly.

Gao Shun said: "A group of flying bear troops rushed out earlier, but there was no trace of Dong Zhuo among them."

"What's wrong!" Lu Bu shouted, "He must have left the city in disguise. Why didn't you chase him?"

Gao Shun said with a serious face: "There are many soldiers from Xiliang outside the city. Our reinforcements have not arrived yet. It is useless to pursue them. Instead, we will be surrounded by the enemy."

Lu Bu knew that Gao Shun was good at using troops and was loyal to him, so he didn't say anything. Seeing that things in the city were almost settled, he said to Gao Shun: "Get on your horse and follow me to pursue Dong Zhuo. At this time, Dong Zhuo was defeated.

It will inevitably retreat to Luoyang, and our army must reach Luoyang before the rest of the coalition forces."

Gao Shun said "Promise" and hurriedly ordered his men to mount their horses and follow Lu Bu out of the city.

But outside Hulao Pass, the troops of Ma Teng, Han Sui, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, and Yang Feng were all stationed together. Inside the pass, only the troops of Guo Si and Xu Rong were stationed. After Xu Rong died, the troops were assigned to Guo Si.

, there were 30,000 soldiers in the city plus 2,000 flying bear troops guarding Dong Zhuo. But no one expected that Lu Bu would suddenly betray him.

More than 30,000 Bingzhou soldiers attacked four camps in the city at almost the same time and set fire to the camps. Guo Bang was a guest at Li Ru's place and survived. Knowing that someone was making trouble, the two of them agreed to retreat, so they

When Gao Shun was fighting with the Ximen guards, he took advantage of the chaos and escaped.

When the fire in the pass was bright, the soldiers and horses outside the city didn't care, because the city was always brightly lit, sometimes accompanied by cheers and celebrations. In addition, the soldiers drank alcohol every day, and most of them were drunk and a little drunk.

He did not pay attention to the affairs within the pass. It was not until Guo Si and Li Ru came out of the pass with their people that they learned that Lu Bu was causing trouble.

Li Ru immediately used Dong Zhuo's military symbols to control the situation. Being calm in the face of danger, he immediately made reasonable arrangements and ordered Ma Teng, Han Sui, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, Yang Feng and other troops to retreat, while he followed Guo

Si and Yang Feng were waiting outside the pass to welcome Dong Zhuo. After Dong Min escorted Dong Zhuo out of the city, Li Ru, Guo Si, and Yang Feng took their soldiers and horses to protect Dong Zhuo and retreated. Those who stayed outside were empty.

Village.

Lu Bu led Gao Shun and others and chased them out of the west gate. When they arrived outside the pass, they saw that the army had already emptied out and all that was left was an empty stronghold. Without thinking, he led Gao Shun and others to continue the chase.

past.

As soon as Lu Bu chased him out, Cao Cao came out with his tiger and leopard men. He saw empty camps outside the west gate and the ground was in a mess, as if he had fled in a hurry. Cao Cao was happy and said hurriedly:

"The Dong thief must have been defeated by Lu Bu. We must not fall behind. Follow me and chase him out. There is still a long way to go to Aocang. We must rush there as soon as possible. If Lu Bu is also rushing towards Aocang, it will be terrible.

Got it!"

The generals said "Promise" and followed Cao Cao in pursuit.

At the same time, the coalition troops entered the city one after another from the east gate of Hulao Pass, passed through the streets and alleys of the city, and arrived at the open space outside the west gate.

Gao Fei took Zhao Yun, Tai Shi Ci, Jia Xu and three thousand cavalry into the city after Cao Cao. As soon as he entered the city, he met Zhang Liao. After asking about the situation, he rushed in behind Cao Cao's troops. At this time,

He was the first of the coalition forces to rush outside Ximen City after Cao Cao. When he saw the empty camp outside the city, he asked the soldiers to stop temporarily.

After Zhao Yun looked at it, he said: "My lord, once Hulao Pass is broken, Dong Zhuo will definitely be defeated. Aocang is an important place for the capital to store grain and grass. If our army goes to raid Aocang now, Dong Zhuo will definitely not stop in Luoyang.

Cao Cao's troops are already one step ahead of us. Although they are heading towards Luoyang, there is no guarantee that he will not take advantage of Ao Cang. We should attack Ao Cang immediately and don't let Cao Cao take advantage."

"Yes, once we have food and grass, we can bring them back to Youzhou and use them to recruit troops." Tai Shici said excitedly.

Jia Xu hurriedly said: "No! Don't go to Aocang, go straight to Luoyang!"

Zhao Yun hurriedly said: "Military advisor, there are still hundreds of miles to go to Luoyang. Although Dong Zhuo was defeated, his army was not damaged. He will definitely set up defenses on the road to Luoyang..."

"No! Aocang is a major grain storage area in the entire Gyeongsang Province. Dong Zhuo would not be so stupid as to abandon this place. Judging from the retreat of this military camp, although it was a mess, it retreated on its own. I guess

Dong Zhuo will definitely defend Aocang with heavy troops.

Fortify the area leading to Aocang to provide convenient conditions for transporting grain out of Aocang. Our army will be useless. It is better to attack Luoyang directly, giving Dong Zhuo no chance to breathe and preventing him from entering Luoyang City. Then our army

Then we can enter Luoyang." Jia Xu argued.

Zhao Yun retorted: "But Dong Zhuo will definitely carry out layer-by-layer defenses on the road to Luoyang..."

"Lü Bu has led more than ten thousand cavalry to pursue him. Our army only needs to follow him. Wherever there is defense, Lü Bu will naturally break through. When Lü Bu's army is exhausted, our army can provide support and break through Dong Zhuo's army.

line of defense, and then approach Luoyang in one fell swoop." Jia Xu said impassionedly.

Zhao Yun still wanted to refute, but was stopped by Gao Fei, and said hurriedly: "Stop arguing, what the military advisor said makes sense. Besides, my original plan was to go to Luoyang. I asked each of you to bring enough dry food for three days, just for

All this matter is with me..."

"Ziyu! Ziyu!" Sun Jian came over from behind with a group of cavalry, directly interrupting Gao Fei's words.

When Gao Fei saw Sun Jian following him, he hurriedly said: "Brother Wentai, you came so fast?"

Sun Jian smiled and said: "Ziyu, Dong Zhuo has suffered a new defeat and his morale is low. Now is the time for our brothers to make contributions. I am willing to pursue Dong Zhuo with you and attack Luoyang!"

Gao Fei rolled his eyes, thought for a moment, and then said: "Okay, then let's join forces and pursue Dong Zhuo together and attack Luoyang."

(Author's note: I have finally finished writing the Battle of Hulao Pass. The relationship between the characters in the middle is relatively complicated, but necessary simplifications have been made. In order not to affect the progress of the plot, I have briefly summarized the battlefield scenes. I hope you can understand.)
