end of August.

The huge relocation team finally arrived outside Hangu Pass, and the common people all showed happy smiles as they looked at the hazy city outline ahead.

They were already exhausted from the non-stop rush, and they could finally take a rest.

"Sir, you lost."

Lu Bu on the horse looked at Xi Ce with a smile on his lips.

He made a bet with Xi Ce before, he bet that Dong Zhuo would not come after him, and Xi Ce bet that Dong Zhuo would come.

In fact, it seems that the ploy has indeed lost.

But the loser's face was full of joy, as if he was happier than himself winning.

That afternoon, a shocking news came.

The fierce battle at Hulaoguan that lasted for several months finally came to an end with Dong Zhuo's victory.

In this battle, the two sides have invested 70 to [-] troops, which can be said to be the largest battle in recent years.

Paper could not contain the fire, and the princes quickly broke out in internal strife after learning that the food and grass had been burned.The original allies fell apart in an instant, and became harboring evil intentions and hating each other.

Liu Dai asked Qiao Mao to borrow food but was rejected, and even killed Qiao Mao himself, and recommended Wang Gong to be the new governor of Dongjun.

Without food and grass, this army of justice under the banner of "crusating the country's thieves and entering the king of Jingqin" will be destroyed without attack.The princes from all walks of life left Hulao Pass with their soldiers and horses, and returned in defeat.

Hulao Pass was not breached, and Lu Bu knew that history had been officially rewritten at this moment.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

In the first ten days of September, the emperor's officials successfully settled in Chang'an under the welcome of the chariot general Huang Fusong.

The next day, a court meeting was held in the main hall of Weiyang Palace.

There are two things discussed: one is to reward meritorious deeds.

Lv Bu, who made the most contribution, was named General Right, given a gold seal and purple ribbon, and was in charge of the Dianwei capital.Wei Wei Yang Biao was promoted to Taiwei, Wang Yun was promoted to Situ, Huang Wan was promoted to Sikong, and the rest of the meritorious people were also awarded.

Second, conquer Dong Zhuo.

All the ministers and officials hated to poison the devil, and loudly accused Dong Zhuo of more than a dozen serious crimes in the court.Each one is the death penalty of beheading.In the past, when Dong Zhuo was domineering and monopolizing power in Luoyang, they were trembling and acted on the basis of Dong Zhuo's winks in everything.

Now that he is out of the clutches of the devil, everyone is naturally shouting and beating him.

The meaning of Baiguan is to let Lu Bu lead troops to conquer Dong Zhuo, and let them two dogs bite dogs, it is best for both sides to suffer.

Of course Lu Bu refused. Dong Zhuo repelled the princes of the Kwantung and defended the Hulao Pass, using Luoyang as his base.From the perspective of strategic terrain, it can be regarded as indirectly erecting a strong barrier for the Guanzhong land.

What's more, Dong Zhuo still has nearly [-] soldiers in his hands, and there are many strong generals under him.If you rashly lead troops to fight Dong Zhuo to death, you will just fight between snipe and clam, and these fishermen who watch the theater will benefit.

Lu Bu didn't comment on this, but said indifferently: "If this general leads his troops to the east and the Qiang people from Xiliang take the opportunity to attack, I would like to ask everyone here, who can stop it?"

The Qiang rebels occupied more than half of Xiliang, but the Han Dynasty has not been able to regain it for several years.

Moreover, when Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, he almost emptied the Guanzhong soldiers and horses, and there was no extra troops to deal with the Qiang people.

If the Qiang people took advantage of Lv Bu's departure and launched a surprise attack, it was very likely that they would capture Chang'an in a short time.

"Don't you just watch Bandit Dong get away with it like this?" Someone asked loudly unwillingly.

Lu Bu glanced at this person, but he didn't have any impression in his mind, and replied calmly: "The most urgent thing is not to attack Dong Zhuo, but to stabilize the rear first. When Guanzhong is stable, I will lead people to attack Dong Zhuo."

"As for what this minister said, he doesn't want to see Dong Zhuo get away with it. This general can lend you [-] soldiers and horses, and you can command Dong Zhuo. What do you think?"

"you you you……"

The Chao Qing, who was wearing a civil official's uniform, was trembling with anger at Lu Bu's words. He didn't expect a reckless man to be so eloquent.

"If you still think it's inappropriate, you can recruit all the prefectures and shepherds from all over the world to fight against Dong Zhuo. There are countless heroes in the world, and the one who is good at fighting is not someone like Lu."

In the hall, Lu Bu's voice was loud.

After the court meeting ended, a young eunuch stopped Lu Bu who was about to leave the palace, saying that he had been ordered by the emperor to go to the Chengming Hall to meet the Holy Majesty.

What did the Son of Heaven call me for?

Lu Bu was puzzled, but he followed suit.

When they arrived at the Chengming Hall, the Son of Heaven opened his eyes to Lv Bu after retreating from the left and right sides.It turned out that the emperor missed his elder brother Liu Bian, and hoped that Lu Bu could let him return to the palace and accompany him.

If the emperor didn't mention it, Lu Bu almost forgot about it.

After all, in recent days, Lu Bu has been tense all the time, thinking only about the general trend of the world.

He nodded in response, reassuring the emperor, saying that after he left the palace, someone would take Liu Bian back to Chang'an.

After leaving the palace, Lu Bu returned to the mansion and ordered someone to call Chen Wei back.

As the evening approached, Lu Bu took his daughter to the military camp outside the city.

The emperor was able to be rescued this time, in addition to careful planning, the three armies also contributed a lot.

As a general, he naturally wanted to reward him himself.

The little bell was riding on Lu Bu's neck, clamoring to come and play with her, but Lu Bu couldn't resist her, so he had to take her with him.

Lü Bu was coming to reward the three armies. Gao Shun and the others had received the news in advance, so they kept their uniforms in strict uniform and waited for Lv Bu in the barracks.

When they saw that tall and handsome figure appearing in front of their eyes, all the soldiers of the three armies stood up straight, turned their eyes to Lu Bu, and shouted in unison from the bottom of their hearts: "I'll wait, see the general!"

wow~~

The neat movements of saluting caused the scales on the armor to rattle together.

Lu Bu's eyes scanned from left to right, passing over the faces of Gao Shun, Song Xian, Cao Xing, Huang Zhong and others, as well as the countless soldiers of the three armies.

In this situation, Lu Bu was full of pride.

"My sons and daughters, it is my honor, Lu Bu, that you are willing to follow me. Today, there is no military rank or position, only Brother Pao Ze, let me let go of all the drinks, let me drink them all, and drink him until he is drunk!"

"No drunk, no return! No drunk, no return!"

Lu Bu's frank speech drew cheers from the soldiers.

Afterwards, Lu Bu ordered to cook pigs and slaughter sheep, and had a drink with all the soldiers.

Cao Xing, Hao Meng and others came to toast Lv Bu in turn. Fortunately, during the time in Luoyang, Lv Bu went to many banquets, and he had practiced his drinking capacity. It was no problem to drink him twenty or thirty bowls.
