Two hundred and twenty-six Is there such a truth in this world?
Early in the morning of September 28, the first year of Chuping, Guo Peng led his troops to appear behind the Oguchi Pass defenders like ghosts, catching them off guard.
Guo Peng showed his identity as the left general, the governor of Qingzhou, to the defenders in the pass, and falsely claimed that Dong Zhuo had escaped to Chang'an and had abandoned them.
Luoyang has fallen, and they have lost their way out. If they do not surrender, they will be dead.
The guard of Oguchi Pass was shocked and really thought that Luoyang had fallen, Dong Zhuo had already escaped, and his fighting will collapsed.
In front of Sun Jian, Guo Peng was behind him. He was attacked from both sides and was abandoned. It was already a dead end and there was no need to continue fighting to the death. So the Oguchi Guard quickly decided to abandon his weapons and surrender, just to save his life.
Then Guo Peng accepted the surrender of the Ogu Pass defenders and disarmed them. Under the protection of the personal guards, he opened the gate of the Ogu Pass with Cao Chun and placed the shocked and suspicious Sun Jian's army into the pass.
At this point, the two siege armies successfully met and all entered the pass. Luoyang had no danger to defend, and Dong Zhuo's failure was irreversible.
After that, the guards of Ogu Pass realized that Luoyang had not fallen at all. Guo Peng only took an army of 5,000 people to take a detour to attack Ogu Pass. Dong Zhuo in Luoyang still had tens of thousands of troops eyeing him.
Sun Jian was very surprised by Guo Peng's sudden appearance behind Oguchi Pass to attack the enemy troops in Oguchi Pass. After learning about Guo Peng's situation and his determination to take risks, he was even more amazed.
"It's a blessing for the great man to have a patriot like a general!"
Sun Jian praised Guo Peng's actions very much, praised the sharpness of this action, and then joined forces with Guo Peng to march quickly towards Luoyang.
When Guo Peng and Sun Jian were only ninety miles away from Luoyang, Dong Zhuo learned the news and was so scared that he threw down the wine glass in his hand.
It's over, defense is meaningless. Guo Peng has joined forces with Sun Jian to come here...
But why didn’t there be any news of defeat in Gong County? An hour ago, Dong Zhuo had just received a report from Gong County’s war, saying that Gong County’s defense was still continuing. Is this fake?
No matter what the situation was, Gong County's defense was meaningless. Dong Zhuo calmed down in time. Thinking of the retreat he had prepared, he immediately ordered the Gong County defenders to fight and retreat to Luoyang to assist in the defense.
Then Dong Zhuo wanted to lead his army to advance southward and face Guo Peng and Sun Jian head-on. He wanted to see if Guo Peng is stronger or he is more tough!
Early in the morning of September 30, the Gong County garrison Dong Yue and Niu Fu's troops received a retreat order from Dong Zhuo. They learned that Guo Peng and Sun Jian had led their troops to drive directly from the direction of Ogu Pass. The Ogu Pass was over, and asked them what was going on.
Niu Fu and Dong Yue were confused. After receiving the order, Jia Xu looked at it and his expression changed and he shouted that he was not good.
They were tired of dealing with Guo Peng's frontal attack, and they never expected that Guo Peng would split his troops to attack Ogu Pass.
The Arc destiny was broken, and Guo Peng actually had no need to hang him here at all. It was just that the offensive was too fierce, which made them feel illusioned.
Now Guo Peng has joined forces with Sun Jian's troops in the direction of Dagu Pass to march towards Luoyang. Gong County's defense is meaningless. If it is a little later, if Luoyang falls, they will be closed and beaten to the dog. Then everyone will jump to the Yellow River to feed the fish together.
After figuring this joint, Jia Xu immediately suggested that the army retreat slowly, fight and retreat, and move towards Luoyang, at least meet with Dong Zhuo, and not be left behind by Dong Zhuo when retreating.
I heard that Dong Zhuo had arranged Xu Rong to guard the village in Mianchi, leaving a way out for himself. I think Dong Zhuo had already prepared to give up the abandoned city of Luoyang, a wasteland city, and retreat to Chang'an.
"If you don't retreat now, you really have no chance. Tonight is the last chance. You can't retreat during the day and you have to leave at night. You have to speed up and you can't be caught up by the army outside the city, otherwise the army will inevitably collapse!"
Jia Xu made a quick decision and immediately suggested that Niu Fu and Dong Yue withdraw their troops. Niu Fu and Dong Yue had no choice but to do what Jia Xu said and withdraw their troops at night.
That night, Niu Fu and Dong Yue commanded the army to withdraw quietly, but Gongsun Zan and Bao Xin outside the city did not find it. It was not until dawn the next day that they observed the report of the soldiers at the head of Gong County. Gongsun Zan and Bao Xin discovered that Dong Zhuo's soldiers in the city had retreated and the city turned into an empty city.
Gongsun Zan and Bao Xin immediately raised their troops and rushed to catch up, but they were unable to catch up.
On the first day of October, Guo Peng and Sun Jian joined forces, with more than 20,000 troops, and arrived forty miles south of Luoyang City.
At that time, the two found an army ahead. After investigation, they found out that it was an army led by Dong Zhuo himself, with a number of about 20,000 people.
What a guy, Dong Zhuo is here in person...
Guo Peng and Sun Jian looked at each other and nodded together.
Then lead the army forward, set up a formation, and prepare for a fierce encounter at any time to fight Dong Zhuo.
The three powerful generals of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun under Guo Peng's command, Cheng Puhan Dang Zumao and Huang Gai under Sun Jian's command, can be said to be a gathering of generals and extremely strong combat power. They are not afraid of the Liangzhou Army and Bingzhou Army under Dong Zhuo's command.
So once he faces the enemy, Guo Peng and Sun Jian are completely sure to face Dong Zhuo head-on and win.
However, Dong Zhuo didn't seem to want to start a war with the two of them immediately. He seemed to have something to say.
Dong Zhuo hopes to have a head-on conversation with Sun Jian and Guo Peng.
"What's there to talk about? Everyone in the country will be punished!"
Sun Jian wanted to refuse, so he went directly to war, but was stopped by Guo Peng.
"Let me hear what the traitors want to say first."
Sun Jian nodded, thinking that this was OK, so he came forward with Guo Peng with some personal guards.
Over there, Dong Zhuo also brought a few personal guards forward.
"Zifeng, long time no see! You have become much more majestic again!"
Dong Zhuo praised Guo Peng when he came up.
"So too, Mr. Dong, for a long time, has actually turned from a Han minister to a Han thief!"
Guo Peng didn't say anything good, but started to argue.
Dong Zhuo's expression changed.
"Zifeng, everyone in the world says I am a thief, I didn't expect you to treat me like this too!"
"Isn't it? What you do one by one, aren't there any Han thief? You killed King Hongnong, dominated the court, deposed the emperor, and humiliated the royal family. What is it that Han thief can do?
Mr. Dong, I want to call you in the face of the Yellow Turban thieves in the past when I was fighting against the Yellow Turban thieves. I advise you to surrender, admit your guilt, accept punishment, and may be able to protect your family. Otherwise, you will die and die!"
After Guo Peng said this, Dong Zhuo was silent for a while, and then laughed to the sky.
"I almost forgot, Zifeng, you are also a scholar, and you also have the name of a famous scholar. Are you, the famous scholars in Kanto, very good at condemning people? Are you all good at confusing black and white?
I am making the most evil things that others say so that I can find reasons for myself. I am doing something similar to mine, but I am a traitor, but you are famous people in the world. Is there such a reason in this world?"
