Dong Zhuo has become a bit over-expanded since his dethronement.

With Xiliang cavalry and Lu Bu protecting him, Dong Zhuo really didn't take the people of the world seriously.

He even went to the palace every night, raped the palace maids, stayed on the dragon bed at night, and imprisoned the princess.

At the same time, Dong Zhuo also sent troops to burn, kill and loot near Luoyang, and distributed the robbed women and property to his subordinates.

However, what was even more shocking was that Dong Zhuo actually hanged Queen Mother He and poisoned Liu Bian.

In 189 AD, Cao Cao failed to assassinate Dong Zhuo, so he fled back to Chenliu, dispersed his family wealth, and recruited troops.

At the same time, Cao Cao issued a corrective edict, calling on the heroes of the world to attack Dong Zhuo.

In 190 AD, Bohai Governor Yuan Shao led 30,000 troops and horses to form an alliance with Cao Cao.

Yuan Shu, the governor of Nanyang, Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou, Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou, Wang Kuang, the governor of Hanoi, Zhang Miao, the governor of Chenliu, Qiao Mao, the governor of Dongjun, Kong Rong, the governor of Beihai, Zhang Chao, the governor of Guangling, Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou Waiting, a total of eighteen towns and princes raised troops to respond.

Including Gongsun Zan, the right governor of Beiping, he also commanded 15,000 elite soldiers and went to Chenliu to form an alliance.

At the same time, Gongsun Zan did not forget Liu Bei and took him with him this time.

……

In April 190 AD, when the eighteen princes in Guandong formed an alliance to fight against Dong, with Yuan Shao as the leader, and they were satisfied and high-spirited, Zhou Cheng was also ready.

The Rouran people sent 15,000 troops and horses, and the Qianman people sent 20,000 cavalry. They were already waiting for orders outside the camp.

In the handsome tent.

Zhou Cheng ordered:"He Man, you will lead 5,000 elite cavalry to attack Yanmen, plunder the people of Bingzhou and other counties, and introduce them to the grassland!"

"Here."He Man took the order.

Zhou Cheng ordered:"Guan Hai, you will lead 5,000 fine cavalry to invade Jizhou, go to Qingzhou, and lead the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans into the grassland."

"Here." Guan Hai replied.

Zhou Cheng continued:"Zhen Xian, Zhao Chen, Zhao Yuan and Zhou Cang stayed at the camp."

"Here."The four people stood up and answered in unison.

This time, the purpose of leading the army south was not to occupy the city, but to plunder the population.

In fact, Zhou Cheng was not short of land, and the land that no one cultivated or grazed was a piece of land. The wasteland could not bring substantial benefits to Zhou Cheng.

At this moment, Zhou Cheng looked at Wen Sheng again and said,"I will write a personal letter and you will forward it to Dong Zhuo for me."

Tian Chou, Zhen Xian and others were all confused.

Tian Chou asked directly:"Does the lord want to form an alliance with Dong Zhuo? Zhou

Cheng replied:"We are just using each other to ask for something. If Dong Zhuo doesn't give it, then I don't mind adding insult to injury.""

Face the siege of the eighteen towns princes, Dong Zhuo will definitely not be his opponent in the end.

However, Zhou Cheng hopes that Dong Zhuo can persist for a while to weaken the strength of the eighteen towns princes.

Otherwise, if the eighteen towns princes join forces, it will make People have a headache

……

In Luoyang City, Dong Zhuo kept rubbing his forehead. He had suffered from severe insomnia recently.

The princes on the ten towns and roads came fiercely, ranging from ten to twenty thousand to as many as twenty to thirty thousand.

Even though Dong Zhuo had the Xiliang Iron Cavalry under his command, as well as the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry and the annexed Luoyang soldiers and horses, the overall strength was not that weak.

However, Dong Zhuo didn't trust anyone except the direct Xiliang army.

Because whether it is Bingzhou's military horses or Luoyang's original military horses, they may rebel at any time.

At this time, Li Ru walked in.

As Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, Li Ru has long been closely tied to Dong Zhuo.

If Dong Zhuo collapses, Dong Zhuo's family will not survive, and Li Ru will not be able to escape.

At this time, Li Ru said:"My lord, the moth thief Qu Shuai Zhou Cheng sent an envoy"

"Zhou Cheng?"Dong Zhuo rubbed his head and said impatiently:"It's just a moth thief, don't pay attention to it." Li Ru said:"My lord, Zhou Cheng sent an envoy at this time with unclear intentions. My lord, it's better to meet him first and find out the purpose of his visit. If it's a moth, If the thieves are willing to send troops to Jizhou, Youzhou, Bingzhou and other counties, the princes of the eighteen towns will inevitably fall apart.

"Well, what Wen You said is absolutely true."

Dong Zhuo agreed, and soon Wen Sheng was brought to Dong Zhuo.

Although Wen Sheng saw Dong Zhuo for the first time, his expression was very calm.

Wen Sheng took out Zhou Cheng's letter and gave it to Li Ru, who Then he handed the letter to Dong Zhuo.

After reading the contents of the letter, Dong Zhuo angrily slammed the wine case and said angrily:"How dare you blackmail someone?"……"

No wonder Dong Zhuo was angry. Zhou Cheng's letter required Dong Zhuo to donate a large number of young women, and at the same time, young scribes were also required.

After Li Ru read the contents of the letter, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said:"My lord, please do not get angry. Zhou Cheng's words are not alarmist." The princes of the eighteen towns in Guandong are coming menacingly, with hundreds of thousands of troops and horses.

Although Dong Zhuo occupied important passes such as Hulao Pass and Sishui Pass, the princes of Guandong were not easy to deal with.

For example, Gongsun Zan, Sun Jian and others are all famous for their bravery.

Zhou Cheng, on the other hand, turned to Dong Zhuo and took the opportunity to ask for scribes. It didn't matter whether they were famous or not, the important thing was to have more.

Zhou Cheng does not need these scribes to govern the country and ensure peace. At present, he only needs some people who understand culture and can participate in the pioneering of the Northeast.

"snort!"Dong Zhuo snorted coldly, and then picked up the wine and poured it into his mouth.

The maids beside Dong Zhuo were cautiously scouting.

Li Ru said:"My lord, if Zhou Cheng is willing to attack Jizhou, Bingzhou, and Qingzhou, Guandong will be destroyed. It is bound to be difficult for the princes to take care of each other, not to mention that the civil and military officials in the court and the nobles in the world all hate the lord. If Zhou Cheng can help, the world can be settled."
