34. Burning Hulao Pass

"What? Zicong, what did you find?" Liu Bei asked softly.

"Today, Dong Zhe's army is much worse than the previous two days. I'm afraid they deliberately lead people into the city and then there will be ambush in the city!" Han Fei told his guess. Liu Bei smiled and said, "Zi Cong is the one who thinks badly, but there is ambush in the city, so what if there is ambush in the city? Without the protection of the city wall, Dong Zhe's army will not cause any trouble at all!"

"Lord, I still think it's wrong. You must listen to me. You must not let the second and third generals enter the city." Han Fei said seriously. Seeing that he was serious, Liu Bei asked him to go down and pass on the order, asking Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to take people to the city, and be sure not to enter the city.

On the other side, Yuan Shao commanded the coalition forces and had already attacked Hulao Guanzhong. Seeing more and more troops entering Guanzhong, Yuan Shao couldn't help but clench his fists and said to himself: "Uncle has a spirit in the sky. You must watch your nephew kill Dong Thief to avenge you!" Before he could finish his thoughts, he suddenly heard a scream of exclamation. When he looked up, he saw a blazing flame rising from Hulao Guanzhong!

Not only that, the Qianjin Gate at the city gate was also put down, and the troops entering the city could not retreat even if they wanted to retreat! Yuan Shao was shocked and said, "Come on! Put out the fire quickly! Go and put out the fire!"

At this time, Hulaoguan was like a purgatory. Ten thousand wounded soldiers knew they would die, and all burst out with super combat power. They not only ignited all the houses in the city, but also took up weapons to block the coalition forces.

Not many coalition forces entering the city were directly burned to death by the fire, but many died in the hands of these ten thousand wounded soldiers. In this way, the fire was reduced for a day before it gradually went out. The coalition forces entered the Hulao Pass from the burned city wall, and at this time there was no living person in Hulao Pass.

Not to mention that the entire Hulao Pass was almost burned to white land, and Yuan Shao had to command the coalition forces to camp again ten miles away from the city. Afterwards, he counted the troops and found that more than 30,000 people were killed or injured in this battle alone. There was no way for the coalition forces to rest for another day, and the princes sent people to the city to find the remains of the soldiers of each army and buried them in peace.

Liu Bei was also extremely scared at this time. Fortunately, Han Fei reminded him in time, otherwise it would be difficult for the soldiers and horses to be trapped in this Huzhuo Guan!

Hu Zhen and Li Su had completed the task at this time and led the remaining troops back to Luoyang. Dong Zhuo was very happy after hearing the report, and then rewarded Hu and Li with great rebirth.

Seeing that his subordinates had withdrawn from Luoyang, Dong Zhuo's plan to retreat west was also started to implement. He ordered Zhang Jiduo to prepare the fire-burning items. Zhang Ji did not think too much and asked his men to collect them everywhere! At this time, Sima Jia Xu in Zhang Ji's army learned the news, and his eyes flashed, and he had already made up his mind. So he said to Zhang Jiyan: "General, if the Grand Master arranges people to escort things to Chang'an, the general must rob the errand. Do not stay in Luoyang."
