() "The most important thing at the moment is to repel the coalition forces of the princes. What's more, there are Zhang Liao and other generals in Hulao Pass. Jia Rong will not succeed so easily. -" Li Ru really had no good way to comfort Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo said: "Allied soldiers have appeared in Mengjinguan and Pingjin, and the people in Luoyang City are also unstable. At this critical moment, a good son-in-law must contribute more to the army, so that everyone will be prosperous and everyone will suffer."
Li Ru's body was shaken, and he bowed his head and said: "No!" Dong Zhuo's words suddenly lifted Li Ru out of the cold palace and became a hot figure.
After becoming Dong Zhuo's military advisor, Li Ru never thought of betrayal and always worked hard for Dong Zhuo's development.
"My lord, there is no need to worry. Xu Rong is guarding the Mengjin Pass, and everything is safe. As for Pingjin, it will not be the place where the princes have the most troops. As for Yique and other passes in the south of Luoyang, only a few hundred troops are needed to guard it, and the princes will be unable to make an inch of progress.
"Li Ru talked in detail.

Dong Zhuo said happily: "I have Wenyou, so I have nothing to worry about! Wenyou can handle matters in the army at his discretion. You only need to report to me afterwards."
Li Ru was once again favored by Dong Zhuo, and Li Ru was also very heroic. Li Ru had already secretly remembered some of the restless generals in the Japanese army. Dong Jun generals who were familiar with Li Ru knew that once Li Ru regained power, it would be
When the bad luck came for the powerful general who was so good in the past, he was the former general of Dong Jun. No matter how frustrated Li Ru was, he always treated him with respect and did not dare to show any slights to him.
An imperceptible smile flashed across Li Ru's lips.
With Li Ru's assistance, Dong Zhuo once again restored his carefree life. Among Dong's troops, Li Ru was an all-round talent, capable of everything from battlefield strategy to military management.
Huang Wan, Yang Biao and others had recently become very close to Dong Zhuo, ranking among the three princes. They colluded with Dong Zhuo in court. Many officials bowed their heads to the two of them openly and said bad things behind their backs.
In Luoyang City, Jia Xu was sorting out the information from Xianlian Pavilion and analyzing the changes in the situation in Luoyang City. When Jia Rong was leaving, there were 1,200 cavalry and 5,000 infantry in Luoyang City. The princes were knocking at the gate.
The Xiliang army also had to dedicate its forces to assist Dong's army in guarding the pass.
Now there are only 1,000 cavalry and 2,000 infantry in the city, and Dong Jun has about 6,000 troops. Jia Xu must always think about how to protect Luoyang's various checkpoints at the minimum cost. The Xiliang Army is the foundation of Jia Rong.
Every cavalryman is Jia Rong’s hard work.
The city gate of Luoyang was closed, and it was difficult for Jia Xu to obtain information from all aspects. Fortunately, Su Shuang did not run Luoyang overnight, and information continued to come to Jia Xu, including the restless families in the city.
Among the information Dong Zhuo received, there was a lot of information provided to him by Jia Xu, who used a borrowed knife to kill people. Dong Zhuo would bear the bad reputation. Why not do it? Jia Rong himself had no bad reputation in Luoyang.
The Eighteenth Route Allied Forces numbered hundreds of thousands, and Dong Zhuo's heart was raised. The most distasteful thing to hear was that there was a wealthy family in the city colluding with the allied forces. His attitude was that he would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go.
With this information, Jia Xu could predict the next move of the princes' armies in advance.
There are many generals such as Jiang Yu and Ma Teng in the city. More importantly, Zhang Xiu also came to Luoyang to assist Jia Xu in processing intelligence.
Zhang Xiu is a member of the Lone Wolf Army. He has a strong ability to collect intelligence, but is relatively slow to sort it out. He also acts as Jia Xu's subordinate in Luoyang City. Zhang Xiu is quite happy with this. In the Han Dynasty, the identity of a scholar was always better than that of a warrior.
So superior.
Gao Shun led the enemy camp and two hundred cavalry to station in Hangu Pass. At that time, the army retreated. Jia Rong only had to hold Hangu Pass to prevent the Kwantung princes from advancing. Jia Rong's troops were stationed in counties and counties along the way, although there were not many.
, but it can play a key role. After all, these counties do not have many standing troops, and grain, grass and other supplies have long been requisitioned to Luoyang by Dong Zhuo's order.
The allied forces of the princes began the most violent attack, with Hulao Pass bearing the brunt, and there were endless ways to attack the city.
Outside Hulao Pass, the allied forces of the princes built two large mountains of earth. They not only played a role in monitoring the defenders inside the pass, but also provided cover for the attacking soldiers by confronting the defenders when they attacked the city.
It greatly divided the attention of the defenders.
Jia Rong was not weak at all against the coalition's offensive methods. Pieces of rawhide were hung outside the city, and most of the coalition's arrows were blocked by the cowhide.
Yuan Wei's death really stimulated Yuan Shao greatly. He rushed to build rams and ladders in the army day and night, and all the surrounding trees were cut down.
The Hulao Pass could not be captured for more than ten days in a row, and the initial vigor of the allied forces of the princes was also dampened. Sometimes the princes' troops attacked the city just to make Yuan Shao feel at ease. The death of the lower-level soldiers was taken for granted by the princes.
Soldiers should sacrifice for the future of the Han Dynasty, but each soldier represents the strength of the princes.

No prince is stupid, just like Sun Jian, no matter how Yuan Shao tried to persuade him, he just sent a few hundred soldiers to participate in the battle as a symbol.
Although the wall of Hulao Pass was thick, Jia Rong had to deal with it carefully. In order to prevent the princes' troops from digging tunnels and attacking the city, urns were buried underground one by one with soldiers on them.
The soldiers listened carefully, and if there was any movement, they would report it to the generals as soon as possible.
There is a lot of oil accumulated in the pass. In ancient times, boiling oil was an effective way to prevent soldiers from attacking the city. The boiling oil that fell from the sky was hard to guard against, which was enough to make the soldiers who were attacking the city burst into liver and gallbladder. The people in Luoyang City unconditionally supported Jia Rong in his mission.
For the operations at Hulao Pass, consumables such as arrows, knives and guns were continuously delivered.
The soldiers of the princes' armies outside the pass became the targets for the Xiliang army to practice their bow skills, especially the group of princes' soldiers on Tushan. The rapid progress of the Xiliang army's soldiers' bow skills was inseparable from their sacrifices. The reputation of Lu Bu, the divine arrow, became even greater.
It is widely spread among the soldiers of both armies that as long as Lu Bu appears on the city, all the coalition soldiers in Tushan will have to climb down obediently.
Compared with Lu Bu, Hao Meng and Cao Xing, who were known as unparalleled archers, were much inferior.
In the army of the princes, Yuan Shao sat in the upper position with a gloomy look. In terms of military strength, the princes were more than ten times that of the defenders in the pass, but in terms of combat capability, they were not as good as the cavalry of the Xiliang army.
Just yesterday, Zhao Yun, Lu Bu, Hua Xiong, Zhang Liao and other generals came out. The cavalry came in force and attacked the Chinese army. The coalition soldiers did not dare to step forward to stop them and returned in defeat. At the critical moment, if Gongsun Zan had not led the white horse
If justice comes to help, the losses of the princes' armies will be even greater.
The princes outside the pass continued to attack, and the defenders inside the pass became more united than ever before. There was an example of Jia Rong treating and condolencing the wounded soldiers. The relationship between the Xiliang Army, Dong Army and Bingzhou Army was no longer so tense. The soldiers from both sides spent their free time.
Yu Hui sat down and chatted with each other, laughing and joking. In the final analysis, this was just a grudge between the upper-level generals. Maybe the soldiers had long forgotten what Ding Yuan looked like.
After Li Su and Zhang Liao received Dong Zhuo's order, they fully cooperated with Jia Rong.
"In your opinion, how can Hulao Pass be broken?" Yuan Shao said as he sat on the top with a gloomy expression.
As the leader of the vassal army, one hundred thousand men could not conquer Hulao Pass in half a month, and his face was always a little worried. What's more, he still had family hatred. Yuan Wei's kindness to him was like a movie playing in Yuan Shao's mind every night.
Playback continues.
Seeing no one answered in the tent for a long time, Cao Cao clasped his fists and said: "Alliance leader, the Hulao Pass is not the only road leading to Luoyang. Our army can allocate most of its troops to attack Pingjin or Mengjin. As long as one of these two passes is passed,
If it is defeated, the army can march to Luoyang City. There are eight passes around Luoyang. Dong Zhuo and Jia Rong will definitely divide their forces to guard it. Luoyang is actually an empty city. Once the army arrives at that time, Luoyang can be easily captured."
"With the cooperation of the aristocratic families in the city, Dong Zhuo and the other rebellious officials in Luoyang City will be finished. Once Luoyang is broken, the Hulao Pass defenders will lose the support of food, grass and weapons, and they will definitely flee in confusion." Cao Cao talked about it in detail,
It creates a large fantasy space for the princes in the tent. The purpose of the princes' coalition is to attack Luoyang.
Cao Cao's words won the support of many princes in the tent, but Yuan Shao still sat on the alliance leader's throne with an unhappy face. Cao Cao's words made sense, but Pingjin and Mengjin simply took the small road to Luoyang, and there was no tiger.
The people who came to prison were fair and aboveboard. If the coalition forces wanted Qing Jun to punish Jian Ren, naturally the more legitimate the better.
"Our army has been attacking for many days, and the soldiers in the pass are probably already exhausted. You don't need to be discouraged. We will attack Hulao Pass in the coming days." Yuan Shao consoled him.
Cao Cao sighed softly and looked elsewhere. Since ancient times, when you become a king or lose a bandit, others will not care how you win. They will only remember you as a winner. Yuan Shao loves fame so much that he disdains to adopt Cao Cao's strategy.
Having grown up together, what Yuan Shao thinks will certainly not escape Cao Cao's eyes.
"Tomorrow the army will attack Hulao Pass. You all need to work together and not slack off." Yuan Shao's voice suddenly rose an octave, causing the princes in the tent to tremble.
Yuan Shu, who was standing in the tent, turned his gaze and said, "Actually, our army does not need to resort to climbing the city. We can also enter the city from underground."
Yuan Shao glanced at Yuan Shu in surprise and said in surprise: "Is there any good plan for the highway?"
Seeing the princes in the tent turn their attention to him, Yuan Shu felt very satisfied. He liked this feeling of being taken seriously.
"We can attack the city while digging tunnels to the inside of the pass. In this way, we can penetrate into the pass without anyone noticing. If the inside and the outside are coordinated, the Hulao Pass will not be broken."
The princes heard the words and started talking a lot. Those who can become princes are not ordinary people. They all have extraordinary minds and cities. Yuan Shu's words are very straightforward, which is to maximize the advantages of manpower so that the soldiers behind the gate have no time to take care of the inside of the city. The inside should be coordinated with the outside.
Go down and capture Hulao Pass.

"Not only that, the chariot ladder and the well gate must also be covered together. The Chinese army only needs to leave General Gongsun's white horse followers." Yuan Shao added.
Gongsun Zan was so happy that the siege of the city would consume a lot of soldiers. He did not want to watch his good men go to die. These soldiers were the biggest support for the feudal princes to compete for fame and fortune after they invaded Luoyang. Although Gongsun Zan
He looks rough and bold, but in reality he is meticulous. The city is quite deep. On the surface he is respectful to Yuan Shao, but in fact he is disapproving of this leader. A hundred thousand troops cannot win even if they attack a small Hulao Pass.
