Luoyang!

"Huaxiong asks for help!"

Looking at the urgent report in his hand, Dong Zhuo said coldly to the generals who gathered together.

The generals were shocked. At this time, the eighteen princes had just formed an alliance. Did they kill them all at the Hulao Pass?

You should know that there are more than 10,000 elite troops in Hulao Pass at this time, and there are also general Hua Xiong guarding them. And hasn’t their lord sent an army of 50,000 Lu Bu and Hu Zhen?

"According to the front-line battle reports, the eight princes Wang Kuang, Qiao Mao, Bao Xin, Yuan Yi, Kong Rong, Zhang Yang, Tao Qian and Gongsun Zan, each led the troops and horses of the headquarters, and had already threatened Hulao Pass."

Li Ru, who was quite calm and composed, stood up and explained to the generals.

Only then did the generals realize that the princes had gathered and prepared to attack the Hulao.

However, what the generals didn't know was that Dong Zhuo looked ugly and his heart was filled with anger and worry. It was not just the eighteen princes who gathered nearly 300,000 troops.

Instead, Ao Cang fell into the hands of the princes. Although Ao Cang was no longer as glorious as it was in the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was also a famous granary storage place in the Han Dynasty. You should know that this is the granary storage place for the entire Han Dynasty.

Relying on Ao Cang, the eighteen princes had no worries in the logistics of their 18th lords, and the 300,000 troops were able to have a protracted battle with him.

But that's what happened. After seeing Li Ru's explanation, Dong Zhuo glanced at the generals coldly and said in a deep voice: "The generals and I personally led the army to Hulaoguanguan Guandong bandits."

"promise!"

Hulao Pass!

Hua Xiongxin had just returned from defeat, and Lu Bu and Hu Zhen led 50,000 reinforcements into the pass. Li Su at the pass also breathed a sigh of relief.

"General Lu, General Hu!"

On the head of Hulaoguan City, Hua Xiong, with a pale face, weakly clasped his fists to Lu Bu and Hu Zhen, and Li Su, who was beside him, also frequently showed Lu Bu a pleasing smile.

After seeing Hua Xiong's weak and injured appearance, Hu Zhen snorted coldly in dissatisfaction.

"Hua Xiong, as the chief general, you are reckless enough to take the risk of fighting without authorization. He even chased Sun Jian's bandits overnight to provoke the rebels of Kanto."

As soon as they met, Hu Zhen scolded him. Hua Xiong, who knew that he was in the wrong, couldn't help but hold his fists and sighed: "I will know the crime."

Hu Zhen showed his might in front of him. Seeing this scene, Lu Bu sneered unhappily, then stepped forward and patted Hua Xiong on the shoulder and said with a laugh: "Although it is a bit risky, it has also damaged the thieves all the way. I heard that it is Sun Jian, the Jiangdong tiger who is famous for his bravery among the thieves in Kanto."

Faced with Lu Bu's comfort, Hua Xiong hugged his fist awkwardly. It was obvious that this was a tit-for-tat confrontation between Hu Zhen and Lu Bu.

Hu Zhen looked at Lu Bu proudly, and Lu Bu also looked at the other party with dissatisfaction.

Finally, Hu Zhen looked at the layout on the city and said coldly as if he was the master: "Can you raise enough wood and stones in the pass? Can the turbulent oil, arrows, and sand be perfected for defending the city?"

"Report to the general, the rolling wood, stones, tincture and sand in the pass are enough to deal with the protracted battle, but the arrows are only more than 70,000."

Li Su, who was eager to show himself, stood up carefully and reported the preparations he and Hua Xiong made after coming to Hulao Pass.

Facing Hu Zhen's appearance of airs, Lu Bu's face looked a little gloomy and ugly.

Hu Zhen looked at Lu Bu in a calm expression, "Deputy General Lu, there are insufficient arrows in the pass, General Hua's injuries have not healed. Such arduous tasks are entrusted to Deputy General Lu to urge him to complete them as soon as possible."

Crack ~

Facing Hu Zhen's provocative look, Lu Bu's eyes with ugly expressions had a faint murderous aura, and his palms even made sounds.

Deputy General Lu! Hu Zhen deliberately emphasized the tone when he mentioned these three words, indicating that he was just a deputy general.

As both of the five major generals under Dong Zhuo's command, it is obvious that Dong Zhuo trusts Hu Zhen who followed him all the way, rather than Lu Bu who was the first to join him.

Hu Zhen is the main general, while Lu Bu is the deputy general.

Amid Li Su's worried gaze, Lu Bu slowly clasped his fists with a gloomy face and said in a deep voice: "The last general obeys the order! Master Hu!"

The two men were compared with each other, and Lu Bu even emphasized the words of Hu Zhen as the general, which meant that he was just following the commander's military orders, rather than obeying him.

But even so, Hu Zhen couldn't help but smile and pointed at the outside of the pass and patted Hua Xiong on the shoulder.

"Have the Kanto bandit army advanced now?"

Seeing that the two finally changed the topic, Hua Xiong was afraid that the two would face each other again, so he hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "General Hu, a few days ago, most of the troops and horses of the Kanto bandit army had gathered, including Wang Kuang, Qiao Mao, Bao Xin, Yuan Yi, Kong Rong, Zhang Yang, Tao Qian, and Gongsun Zan, led their troops and horses to march towards our Hulao Pass."

After hearing this information, Hu Zhen couldn't help but become solemn, and Li Su hurriedly said: "The eight princes marched into Huzhu. Three days ago, the flying cavalry had been sent to Luoyang to report to the Prime Minister."

Among the eight princes, there were at least 70,000 to 80,000 soldiers, and there were Gongsun Zan, who was powerful in Youzhou.

Although Hu Zhen and Lu Bu were not in the way, they were definitely not nepotism when they could achieve the position of General Zhonglang.

"Send additional scouts to report the news of the princes' troops in one hour, and at the same time, let the soldiers brought by me take turns to be on duty and familiar with the various defenses of Hulao Pass."

"Li Su, you will check all the food, grass, weapons and supplies in the pass once, and you will never be lost."

After a few orders, Hu Zhen, with a solemn expression, also showed his true abilities.

"Report~ The Prime Minister of Luoyang is 800 miles in a hurry~"

Just as Li Su clasped his fists and shouted for no reason, an urgent shout suddenly came from the top of the city, and a messenger who came from Luoyang rushed towards them.

"Report~ The Prime Minister is 800 miles in a hurry."

After rushing to Hu Zhen, the messenger directly held his fists and gasped and handed out the wooden box on his back.

As the situation in Babaili was exacerbated, Hu Zhen directly dismantled the hot paint with a serious expression, and a wide bamboo slip was engraved with a handwritten letter from Dong Zhuo.

After glanced at him, Hu Zhen's face became more and more ugly, and he snorted coldly at the end, throwing the urgent report in his hand to Hua Xiong on the side, and sneered in anger: "Follow your chief general."

After saying that, Hu Zhen strode down the city with anger, and Hua Xiong looked down at the contents, and immediately smiled bitterly and presented his hands to Lu Bu.

At a glance, after reading it in just a short moment, a smile appeared on Lu Bu's face.

"Master Hu, I'll be in trouble in the future."

After the sarcastic shouts, Lu Bu suddenly burst into laughter, and Hua Xiong, who was standing aside, persuaded with a wry smile: "General Lu, it is better to resolve enemies than to get them together."

Lu Bu had a smile on his face, and he didn't hear Hua Xiong's persuasion at all, but instead felt proud.

"General Hua, Ru, quickly selected elite soldiers in the pass, rushed to work day and night to garrison outside the pass!"

No! After a loud shout, Hua Xiong shook his head and walked down the city with a wry smile, and chose to comply with military orders.

Dong Zhuo rushed forward for 800 miles, and ordered Lu Bu as the main general and Hua Xiong as the deputy general to select 30,000 elite troops from the pass to garrison outside the pass, forming a horn in the Hulao Pass to deal with the coalition forces of the Kanto princes.

In other words, when Lu Bu became the chief general, he no longer had to be angry with Hu Zhen. Hu Zhen even had to cooperate with him to establish a camp outside the pass as quickly as possible.

Just now, Lu Bu shouted "Master Hu" and mocked the other party. How long can Hu Zhen be the master? Because it won't take long for the army led by Dong Zhuo to arrive.
