Originally, with his strength, even if he could not defeat the coalition of princes head-on, he would still be able to confront the coalition of princes at Xiongguan, and retreat when the coalition of princes ran out of food.
However, with the production and transportation levels of this era, it is impossible to support so many troops to fight in a small area under Hulao Pass for a long time.
Anyone with a little military mind will continue to confront the coalition forces of the princes at Hulao Pass.Anyway, there are two major grain-producing areas, the Luoyang Basin and the Guanzhong Plain, are you afraid that it will not last?
But Dong Zhuo retreated out of nowhere.
He took the main force, including the troops belonging to Dugu Ce, back to Luoyang Xingye, and threw Hulao Pass to a general named Zhao Cen to guard it.As for Dong Zhuo's stupid move, Dugu Ce was happy to see the result, so he didn't express any opinion.
Not long after Dong Zhuo withdrew his main force to Luoyang, Zhao Cen switched to surrender and dedicated Hulao Pass to the coalition forces of the princes.
The coalition forces won Hulao Xiongguan without any damage.But then, disagreements occurred within the coalition forces.
A small group of loyal people, such as Cao Cao at this stage, advocated pursuing the victory, entering Luoyang, killing Dong Zhuo, and returning power to Emperor Han.
However, most of the people with ghosts in their hearts used the excuse that Luoyang City was high and deep, and Dong Zhuo's main force was not damaged, so it was difficult to capture, and they stopped at Hulao Pass.
Cao Cao was extremely angry, and with his blood on his head, he led his poor thousands of soldiers and horses to kill Luoyang alone.He didn't want to be ambushed by Xu Rong, a general under Dong Zhuo's command, and was killed to almost annihilate the entire army, so he managed to escape.
After this battle, Cao Cao, a passionate young man who once only wanted to be a "General of the Han Conquest to the West", died, and only the future hero in troubled times remained.
Of course, these have nothing to do with Dugu Ce.Just when Cao Cao was killed by Xu Rong and fled in embarrassment, Dugu Ce returned to Luoyang early, and came to visit Situ Wangyun's mansion with a gift of a carriage.
Wang Yun warmly received Dugu Ce.He opened the middle door wide, greeted him in person, and set up a banquet with singing and dancing to welcome Dugu Ce.
After drinking for three rounds, Wang Yun suddenly said: "Marquis of Duting, I heard recently that the Grand Master seems to have the intention of moving the capital?"
Lu Bu's title of "Marquis Wen" was awarded by Wang Yun in the name of the court after Dong Zhuo was killed.The current Lü Bu, also known as Dugu Ce, is still just a small dutinghou.
But after hearing Wang Yunzhi's question, Dugu Ce did not hide anything, and told him bluntly: "The army of rebels has occupied Hulao, and Luoyang is no longer in danger. It is the Taishi who intends to move the capital to Chang'an to temporarily avoid the rebels."
Wang Yun's face changed drastically, and he lost his voice and said, "It's absolutely impossible! Luoyang has been the capital of the Han Dynasty for nearly 200 years since Guangwu was revived, and it is the center of the world. Although Chang'an is the former capital of the former dynasty, it has long been abandoned , how can it be restored as the capital of Han Dynasty? What's more, there are millions of people in Luoyang City... If the capital is moved, what will the people do? If the people are moved to Chang'an, the journey is far away, and there is no food and clothing. Marquis Ting, General Lu, I also hope that the general will persuade the Grand Master to move the capital!"
Dugu Ce smiled wryly: "However, the grand master has made up his mind, and the clothiers are soft-spoken, how can we persuade you?"
Wang Yun said in a trembling voice: "General Lu is the Taishi's confidant and beloved general, and he has made great contributions to the Taishi... For the sake of the great Han world, and for the livelihood of millions of people in Luoyang, I hope the general will persuade the Taishi to change his mind. what!"
Dugu Ce shook his head and sighed: "Difficult, difficult, difficult! The grand master is now more and more majestic, authoritative and self-confident, and can no longer listen to the advice of others. Even I can only obey the grand master's wishes and dare not rebellious..."
What he said was just pretending.With his strength, even if he can't use more than the upper limit of the world, so as not to be rejected by the world and force this avatar to ascend, he doesn't need to be afraid of Dong Zhuo.
And the reason why he pretended so much...
"Hmph, thanks to the fact that you still claim to be the number one hero in the world, why are you so timid and afraid of getting into trouble, with no sense of responsibility?"
Accompanied by the scolding voice, Diao Chan, who was wearing a lady's long skirt, strode into the hall with her skirt lifted.
Dugu Ce smiled secretly in his heart, and said in his heart: "It's you who's waiting!" On the face, he showed a look of surprise and joy: "Miss Diaochan, I finally saw you again! After we parted that day, Bu missed you very much. Therefore, you When I return to Luoyang, I will come to visit the mansion immediately..."
On Diao Chan's innocent, beautiful and flawless pretty face, there was no joy at all.
After she walked into the hall where the banquet was going on, she stopped the music, waved away the singer, followed to Lu Bu's table, raised her sharp chin slightly, and looked at Dugu Ce with an extremely contemptuous look. , said coldly: "You are not the Lu Bu I know, so don't get close to me!"
Dugu Ce was stunned: "Miss Diaochan, what does this mean?"
Wang Yun also falsely scolded: "Cicada, how can you be so rude to Du Tinghou?"
Diao Chan ignored Wang Yun's scolding, continued to look at Dugu Ce with that contemptuous look, and said coldly: "The rumored Lu Bu is unparalleled in the world. , so that the [-]th princes are not allowed to advance. The Lu Bu I met that night is also a hero with arrogance. But who are you? How can your words and deeds be worthy of the word "hero"?
"Dong Zhuo wants to move his capital to Chang'an and abandon the ancestral temple of the Great Han Dynasty. He will also force millions of people in Luoyang to abandon their homes and businesses and stay away from their homeland, and even their lives will be ruined. How dare you not even dare to advise against such a stupid move? How dare you only obey Don’t you dare to disobey? Don’t you call yourself the number one hero in the world? Where is your bravery? Where is your spirit? Don’t you dare to show your prestige in front of me, a little girl?”
When she said this, Diao Chan's pretty face was pale with anger, and tears glistened in her bright and flawless eyes.
Although life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills, Diao Chan's words and style, although there is a bit of intention to act aggressively, they really express her heart.
In her mind, although Lu Bu is unpredictable and deep in the city, he is at least a hero.But now...
In her heart, there was nothing but disappointment.
Volume 613 [-], one word awakens the dreamer [first update]
Dugu Ce pursed his lips tightly, staring at Diao Chan expressionlessly.
Not to be outdone, Diao Chan's pretty face was flushed, and she looked at Dugu Ce without giving in, and the atmosphere in the hall seemed to freeze for a moment.
Wang Yun was trembling beside him, he felt that Diao Chan had spoken his heart out, and he was very happy; he was also afraid that "Lv Bu" would become angry from embarrassment, and he would get angry and draw his sword to cut people.
In this weird atmosphere, Dugu Ce, who was looking at Diao Chan, suddenly got up slowly.
Seeing that Dugu Ce made a move, Wang Yun's heart immediately rose to his throat.Even Diao Chan felt uneasy in her heart, not knowing how he would react next.
And Dugu Ce...
After getting up, he tidied up his clothes, bowed solemnly to Diao Chan, and said solemnly, "Miss Diao Chan's words awakened the dreamer. Here it is, thank you Miss Diao Chan!"
"Eh?" Diao Chan was stunned, looking at Dugu Ce in bewilderment, completely unexpected that he would have such a reaction.The vigorous momentum of not flinching and directly denouncing just now disappeared without a trace.
Dugu Ce said solemnly: "I'm going to meet the Grand Master now, and persuade him to take back his order! Miss Diao Chan, Wang Situ, and wait for my good news!" After finishing speaking, he turned and left the table, and strode out of the hall.
Seeing the back of him striding away, Diao Chan couldn't believe it for a moment: "He actually... just agreed? He... actually paid so much attention to my opinion of him? This is the second time I met him Right? It’s too late to use the natural power to really affect his will, how could he... Could it be that he really treats me..."
Thinking of this, Diao Chan's pretty face unknowingly flew two touches of rosy red.In my mind, I was also thinking about it for a while.
After Dugu Ce left, Wang Yun finally put his heart back into his stomach, and said to Diao Chan: "Chan'er, in your opinion, can Lu Bu persuade Dong Zhuo?"
Diao Chan withdrew her wandering thoughts, thought for a while, and said to Wang Yun, "My lord, my daughter doesn't have much hope for this. As Lv Bu said, Dong Zhuo is becoming more authoritarian, self-centered, self-willed, and doesn't listen to anyone at all. Even if it is Lu Bu, it will be difficult for Dong Zhuo to change his mind."
