"Come on, pull these people out and chop them down!"

Dong Zhuo looked at the counselors around him with a hint of cruelty on his face.

"The Grand Master is wronged, the villain is loyal to the Grand Master"

"The villain doesn't know Cao Cao, but the world can learn from him"

"Please be aware that the villain is really not colluding with Cao Cao."

When several counselors on the city wall heard Dong Zhuo's words, their legs softened and they knelt on the ground.

They had a look of horror on their faces as they watched Dong Zhuo kowtow and beg for mercy.

They really didn't know why Cao Cao dared to ambush outside Hulao Pass.

"Please calm down the Grand Master, there is no traitor in the army."

Li Ru looked at the furious Dong Zhuo, stepped forward and said with his hands.

He was also responsible for the army's defeat. He should not come out to speak for these counselors at this time.

But these counselors also talked to him The relationship was good, and he couldn't just watch a few people being pulled out and chopped.

"snort!"

"Wen You, your good strategy caused a disastrous defeat for the Xiliang army under my command."

Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru with a hint of dissatisfaction on his face.

If Li Ru hadn't been loyal to him and assisted him, he wouldn't be where he is today.

It was Dong Zhuo who remembered this and didn't punish Li Ru.

Otherwise, this army After a disastrous defeat, Li Ru had already been pulled out and chopped by him.

After hearing Dong Zhuo's words, Li Ru knew that Dong Zhuo was already somewhat dissatisfied with him.

"I asked the Grand Master to punish me if I was guilty, but I still believed that there were no spies in the army."

"oh?"

"There are no spies in the army, why is Wenyou so sure?"

Dong Zhuo's anger subsided a little, and he looked at Li Ru and said

"I sent Lu Bu to call for battle in front of Sishui Pass just to anger Yuan Shao and other princes."

"Let them lead the army out of the city and into the ambush set by their subordinates"

"Just now, General Fengxian said that Yuan Shao and other princes had stepped into a trap and were beaten and retreated."

"When the princes fled, General Fengxian did not see Cao Cao."

"I thought that Cao Cao must have seen through my plan, so he did not take the army with him like Yuan Shao and other princes."

Li Ru glanced at Lu Bu, then looked at Dong Zhuo and expressed his thoughts.

Lu Bu nodded slightly. Li Ru's words made sense. This could explain why Yuan Shao did not have Cao Cao around him.

Dong Zhuo touched his own when he heard Li Ru's words. Beard, thinking for a moment, said: 22"Cao Cao not only saw through Wen You's plan, but also used Wen You's plan to ambush Lu Bu's army outside Hulao Pass."

"When did Cao Cao have the wisdom to ambush Lu Bu's army outside Hulao Pass?"

"Isn't he afraid that the Hulao Pass army will dispatch and join Lu Bu to annihilate his army?"

Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru and expressed his doubts.

He still couldn't believe that Cao Cao actually dared to set up an ambush outside Hulao Pass.

Dong Zhuo's words fell silent on the city wall, and everyone else felt that Dong Zhuo's words made sense.

Although Cao Cao He was more capable than other princes, but they couldn't believe the thought of setting up an ambush outside Hulao Pass.

Li Ru's face turned ugly when he heard Dong Zhuo's words,"Does Grand Master still remember Cao Cao's counselor?""

Dong Zhuo nodded slightly when he heard Li Ru's words. Sishui Pass was captured by Cao Cao and Hua Xiong was killed because of this counselor.

He wanted to recruit this counselor before, but Li Ru vetoed it.

"This time Cao Cao led his army to set up an ambush outside Hulao Pass. It must be this counselor's plan."

"This counselor has expected that Yuan Shao's army will fall into the trap designed by him."

"And I will also think of Lu Bu returning to Sishui Pass with his victorious army."

"At this time, the army will definitely relax their vigilance because they won the battle."

"Cao Cao led his army to ambush outside Hulao Pass, waiting until Lu Bu came with his army."

"Cao Cao's army launches an attack, and Lu Bu's army will be defeated!"

Li Ru's face turned very ugly after saying this. He had just figured out the truth behind Lu Bu's army's defeat tonight.

The strategy he set up from the beginning was thought of by this counselor, and the counselor used his own strategy.

In turn, he gave Lu Bu's army set up an ambush, so that Cao Cao's army would definitely win a complete victory.

Everyone was shocked when they heard Li Ru's words. A counselor actually guessed every move of the enemy.

Dong Zhuo's eyes widened and his mouth curled up slightly. Twitching, the last time Hua Xiong was lost at Sishui Pass and was beheaded.

He was already a little wary of Cao Cao as a counselor, but he didn't expect that this time he would be completely seen through by this counselor.

With a wry smile on his face, Li Ru looked at everyone Continued:

"This person is not only powerful in strategy, but also very courageous."

"He asked Cao Cao to set up an ambush with his army outside Hulao Pass. He was not worried that Hulao Pass would send cavalry out of the city to support Lu Bu."

"Only the counselor Cao Cao dared to think of such a bold plan."

Li Ru said with a hint of admiration on his face. If he were Cao Cao's counselor, he would not dare to set up an ambush under Hulao Pass. Once the Hulao Pass cavalry leaves the pass, Cao Cao's army may be completely wiped out.

"Could it be that Cao Cao, a counselor, was not worried that Hulao Pass would send troops out of the city to support the general?"

Lu Bu looked at Li Ru's evaluation of this counselor, and felt a little bit unwilling in his heart.

"It is dark at night and the general is attacked by a large army. It is not known whether there will be an army ambushing behind the enemy."

"Hulao Pass is Luoyang's barrier. If the cavalry in the city is sent out to support"

"Hulao Pass will become an empty city like Sishui Pass. Knowing this, the Grand Master will definitely not send out a large army to support"

"It was precisely because Cao Cao's counselor wanted to understand this that he set up an ambush outside Hulao Pass."

"Although this counselor is the enemy of the Grand Master, I have to say that his intelligence is far superior to mine."

Li Ru said with a hint of emotion on his face. He had already lost to Cao Cao's advisers twice.

The first time was the loss of Sishui Pass, and the second time was tonight when Lu Bu's army suffered heavy losses.

Dong Zhuo heard Li Ru's words and did not refute.

Even if he knew that Lu Bu's army was being attacked, he would not send troops out of the city to support him.

To him, Hulao Pass was the most important, and Luoyang would be in danger if Hulao Pass was lost. When it comes to the safety of Lu Bu's army and Luoyang, he must choose Luoyang.

Dong Zhuo At this time, I felt a little admiration for this counselor. I was defeated by this counselor twice in a row.

If I could have this counselor to assist me, why worry about the immortality of the princes? Thinking of this, Dong Zhuo hated Cao Cao even more. For Cao Cao, the eunuch, to have such good luck in the future.

When he was at his lowest, he had such a powerful counselor to assist him.

"My son, where are Li Jue and Guo Si?"

Dong Zhuo suddenly thought of his other two tiger generals. When the army escaped, he only saw Lu Bu. He did not see the two Xiliang generals Li Jue and Guo Si. When

Lu Bu heard Dong Zhuo's words, there was a trace of shame on his face!

"Dedicated father!"

"Li Jue was shot off his horse by the white-robed young man during the fight, and Guo Si was also seriously injured in the fight."

"Now he is being treated by doctors in Hulao Pass."

When Dong Zhuo heard Lu Bu's words, one of them lost his balance and took a few steps back.

Of his three fierce generals, one was dead and the other was seriously injured. Only one was left standing in front of him.

"Cao Cao, you are a traitor, I and you are at odds with each other."

Dong Zhuo mentioned Cao Cao's name with anger on his face.

"Lord, calm down!"

Li Ru looked at Dong Zhuo and spoke to comfort him.

Dong Zhuo came out of the army after all and calmed down quickly.

"Wenyou, what should we do next?"

Dong Zhuo rubbed his forehead, with a look of exhaustion on his face.

Li Ru was his most trusted adviser, even though Lu Bu's army was defeated miserably because of him.

He still chose to trust Li Ru and ask for his opinion.

"Please, Grand Master, retreat from those around you!"

Li Ru thought for a moment, looked at Dong Zhuo and said

"Get out of here!"

Dong Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and then waved the people around him to leave. Several soldiers standing on the city wall also left together. Only

Dong Zhuo, Lu Bu, and Li Ru were left.

"According to the Grand Master, the only solution for now is to move the capital!"

Li Ru looked at Dong Zhuo and expressed his thoughts. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu were stunned when they heard Li Ru's words. They didn't expect that Li Ru would actually say The word"move out of the capital"

"Wenyou's move to the capital is no small matter. Are you kidding?"

Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru and felt a little uneasy. All the emperor's courtiers are in Luoyang.

If the capital is moved, not only the emperor will go with him, but also the ministers.

Such a move is too huge, and there have been few capital moves in history.

Dong Zhuo temporarily moved the capital. There was some resistance.

Lu Bu was also very surprised at this time. He knew that Li Ru was very courageous.

He dared to poison the young emperor, and now he said something like moving the capital.

"Report to the Grand Master!"

"When Sishui Pass was occupied by Cao Cao, I thought about whether to move the capital."

"Sishui Pass and Hulao Pass are Luoyang's support. If Sishui Pass and Hulao Pass are lost, it will become dangerous."

"If General Fengxian's army had not suffered a disastrous defeat tonight, Hulao Pass could have blocked the attacks of the princes."

"There is even a chance to retake Sishui Pass. Now Fengxian's army has suffered heavy losses."

"The number of soldiers in Hulao Pass has been greatly reduced. It is difficult for the current Hulao Pass to withstand the attack of the coalition forces."

"Once Hulao Pass is breached, the coalition forces will march across the plains and march across Luoyang."

"By then the Grand Master's life was in danger"

"Only by moving the capital with the emperor and choosing a city that is easy to defend but difficult to attack can the life of the grand master be guaranteed."

After Li Ru finished speaking, there was a trace of bitterness on his face.

Hulao Pass could no longer bear it, and the only way he could think of was to move the capital.

Dong Zhuo was stunned for a moment when he heard Li Ru's words, and quickly reacted and looked at Li Ru and said:[]

"The army under my son Fengxian suffered heavy losses, and the armies under Yuan Shao and other princes also suffered heavy losses tonight."

"Hulao Pass is still safe now. I think there is no problem with the safety of Hulao Pass."

Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru and expressed his thoughts. The Xiliang army under his command was defeated miserably, and the princes like Yuan Shao were not in good shape either. Not only the army was defeated miserably, but also several princes died. Now the morale of Yuan Shao's side must be He was even more disappointed than his own side.

Li Ru shook his head slightly after hearing Dong Zhuo's words:"The grand master knows that the number of soldiers from the coalition of princes is greater than that of the Xiliang army.""

"Even if they are defeated tonight, they still have more soldiers than the Xiliang army."

"What's more, Cao Cao won a great victory tonight. Cao Cao must also be thinking about taking Hulao Pass at this time."

"Which counselor around Cao Cao will definitely give him advice. Hulao Pass can no longer be defended."

"The only way for the Grand Master at present is to move the capital with the Emperor."

Li Ru broke Dong Zhuo's fantasy. Sooner or later, Hulao Pass will be captured by the coalition forces, just one day sooner or later.

Dong Zhuo felt unwilling after hearing Li Ru's words, and knew that moving the capital was the best way.

He could only follow Wenwen Township, a bumpy journey to other cities

"In this case, prepare to move the capital as Wen You said."

Bishui Pass, City Lord's Mansion.

Yuan Shao was sitting in the main seat with a decadent look on his face, and there was a trace of blood on his armor.

Yuan Shu and other princes were also sitting on both sides. The situation of these princes at this time was similar to that of Yuan Shao.

His face was decadent, and his body was covered with blood. Wearing tattered armor.

Yuan Shao glanced at the other princes with a hint of bitterness on his face.

This time the princes led the army out of the pass and were ambushed by Li Ru.

The army retreated steadily, and several princes were not captured by war horses. To be trampled to death means to be hacked to death by the enemy's weapons.

Now there are not enough eighteen princes to gather together.

"Ahem!"

"Have you calculated the casualties of the army?"

Yuan Shao looked at the princes and asked about the casualties of the soldiers.

"The general lost five thousand cavalry"

"This general lost three thousand cavalry!"

"..."

After hearing Yuan Shao's words, the princes all told the number of casualties of their armies.

Yuan Shao was very angry when he heard the number of casualties reported by these princes.

This time the coalition of princes was defeated miserably, losing tens of thousands of troops in total.

Fortunately, Lu 690 Bu did not lead the army in deep pursuit, otherwise the losses to their army would have been greater.Heavy

"Leader Yuan, you have to give an explanation to the other princes!"

Gongsun Zan looked at Yuan Shao with an angry look on his face.

When the army came out of the pass tonight, he also took his soldiers out of the pass like other princes.

The princes stepped into Li Ru's trap, and his army also lost some soldiers..

Returning to Sishui Pass, he counted and found that his Baima Congyi had lost a total of two thousand cavalrymen.

Every cavalryman in Baima Congyi was his heart and soul. How could he not be angry when he lost two thousand people at one time

? It seems that the culprit of such a disastrous defeat tonight is Yuan Shao. If Yuan Shao had not issued the order to lead the army out of the city, how could they have followed with the army.

Gongsun Zan regretted it at this time. He had known that he would stay at Sishui Pass just like Sun Jian and Cao Cao.

"Yes, Alliance Leader Yuan, brothers all obey your orders."

"Yuan Benchu, as the leader of the alliance, you will naturally bear the responsibility for this defeat."

"You are right, Leader Yuan, you have to give everyone an explanation."

After Gongsun Zan finished speaking, the other princes looked at Yuan Shao with anger.

In their opinion, the defeat tonight was all Yuan Shao's fault, otherwise how could they have led the army out of the border.

Yuan Shao's face became ugly after hearing the princes' words, and he felt even more sorry for Gongsun Zan. dissatisfied.

This time the army suffered a disastrous defeat, and he lost a total of four thousand soldiers and horses.

However, he was the leader of the alliance. Under Gongsun Zan's questioning, other princes also began to question themselves.

Yuan Shu, who was sitting aside, saw Yuan Shao being beaten by other princes. He was very satisfied with his denunciation.

Tonight, he also lost more than 3,000 soldiers and horses, and he was very angry at first.

Now seeing Yuan Shao being questioned by everyone, his mood instantly improved.

Tian Feng, who was standing behind Yuan Shao, at this time He lowered his head with cold sweat pouring from his face.

This time the princes led the army out of the border, it was his suggestion.

Now that the army was defeated miserably, Yuan Shao was questioned by so many princes.

He, the person who contributed the idea, would be in a very dangerous situation.

Now he regrets it very much , one should not randomly offer up strategies just for the sake of fighting with Cao Cao's counselors.

Xu You, who was standing on the other side of Yuan Shao, saw Tian Feng's fearful look.

He felt satisfied in his heart. He had felt that there was something wrong with Tian Feng's strategy before.

Now look at it. Li Ru must have planned it long ago, and Tian Feng's plan fell into Li Ru's trap.

Xu You suddenly thought of Cao Cao's counselors again. The army of the princes came out tonight.

Sun Jian used the excuse that the new recruits under his command were still training. , did not leave the pass with the army of the princes.

Cao Cao also made an excuse for the army not to follow, and Yuan Shao and the other armies of the princes went out of the pass. Now any of Cao Cao's counselors must have thought that there was something wrong with Tian Feng's plan.

Dissuade Cao Cao not to wait with Yuan Shao Like the princes, they led the army out of the border.

Thinking of this, Xu You's fear of Lin Yuan became a little more...

"As the leader of the alliance, Yuan will naturally give you an explanation."

Yuan Shao looked at the princes with angry expressions on their faces and said it with a hint of seriousness.
