In the first battle of Hulao Pass, the 30,000 troops dispatched by the coalition forces suffered nearly half of the losses, including the most elite Baima Yicong.

Although Yuan Shao had just woken up, Gongsun Zan was angry that he had lost his chain at the critical moment and did not hide it. He directly reported the war damage to Yuan Shao. This was the result of Baima Yicheng's desperate attempt to stop him. Otherwise, it would not be easy for these 30,000 troops to escape back ten thousand. The Bingzhou Iron Cavalry suddenly lost his bounds under the leadership of Lu Bu.

Since the alliance between the princes, except for Ye Zhao capturing Hua Xiong, he has almost never received any benefits. Yuan Shao led a 30,000 army to attack, originally trying to impose oppression on Hulao Pass, but who would have thought that he would be defeated by others without even touching the city wall. Yuan Shao felt that his life was depressed, and he had been concentrated in these days. After Gongsun Zan reported the damage to the war, he did not breathe a sigh of relief. He rolled his eyes and fainted again.

"A bunch of waste who only knows how to praise!" After coming out of Yuan Shao's central army tent, Gongsun Zan spat fiercely in the direction of the camp.

At this time, instead of thinking about how to fight, he began to condemn him for not saying so bluntly, as if Yuan Shao fainted, he was so angry that Gongsun Zan almost didn't directly attack anyone.

"Lord, I, Baima Yisheng, suffered heavy losses. Why not say goodbye to the leader and go back to Youzhou to cultivate and train the soldiers again?" Tian Yu looked at Gongsun Zan and said.

This time, the princes met to fight against Dong, except for the princes who were directly destroyed, Gongsun Zan suffered the most casualties. The inaction of the coalition forces, the performance of Yuan Shao, the leader of the alliance, and the face of other princes who seemed to owe them, not only disappointed Gongsun Zan, but also had a lot of resentment from his soldiers.

If one or two princes could cooperate with Gongsun Zan yesterday, the coalition would not be defeated so badly. The White Horse Yicheng would not suffer heavy losses. What is even more annoying is the attitude of the princes before. Originally, Gongsun Zan tried hard to recover the losses, but after returning, not only did no one comfort him, but they were all as cold as they owed them.

"Okay!" Gongsun Zan nodded fiercely. When he thought of Qiao Mao and Liu Dai's group of people before, his anger rushed upwards. He would not fight this battle.

On that day, Gongsun Zan directly packed up his luggage and led the remaining white horse Yicong. After leaving a letter to Yuan Shao, he led the crowd to leave. After Cao Cao learned about it, he wanted to recover Gongsun Zan, but was stopped by a group of princes.

"Why should Meng De pay attention to him? He thought he had some merits, so he looked at us coldly. He left like this. Could it be that without him, Gongsun Zan, we would not be able to fight a war?" Liu Dai and Zhang Miao held Cao Cao and said with disdain.

Ho~

Cao Cao glanced at everyone in the tent, and Yuan Shao, who was still in the main position, suddenly felt an unspeakable depression in his heart. One of them could be killed and the other was forced to leave. Now the last one left. If he fought with Dong Zhuo, what would he do to fight? Just these old men who were not even willing to go to the battlefield?

Even if you chase after him at this moment, Gongsun Zan's troops were all cavalrymen, so I'm afraid they couldn't catch up.

Yuan Shao coughed lightly and looked at everyone and said, "The Dong thief slaughtered loyal and kind, and the gods are angry. If this thief is not eliminated, we will have no way to survive. But this Hulao Pass... Cough cough~ With the fierce generals like Lu Bu and the Western Liang Iron Cavalry as his arm, I am anxious and difficult to break. I wonder what good strategies do you have to destroy the thief?"

"Leader!" Everyone looked at each other. They had seen the power of Lu Bu yesterday. It was difficult for them to face Lu Bu again. Tao Qian hesitated for a moment and stepped forward and said, "Our army stationed here has attracted the attention of Dong Zhe. The defense of the second pass of Yique and Xuanyuan must be weak. Now our army has been defeated and the morale is low. We should not force the recruitment. I think that our army will be repaired for the time being, and we can order Ye Zhao's troops to step up the attack. As long as it can break Xuanyuan, it will no longer matter whether the Huzhu will break."

Cao Cao frowned immediately when he heard this. He was giving up. He immediately clasped his fists and said, "The leader of the alliance, we must let Ye Hou break Xuanyuan. We will continue to step up the offensive here. Only when the fiercer the Huzhu fights, Dong Zhe's attention will be placed here. Only then will Xuanyuan and Yique passes have a chance to break the city. If our army does not move, how can Dong Zhe pay attention to it?"

"Meng De's words are wrong!" Tao Qian said with a smile: "Then Yique, the total number of people in Xuanyuan's two passes is only 50,000. We have an army of 200,000 here. How could Dong Zhuo sit and watch?"

Two hundred thousand army? Where?

Gongsun Zan left, Sun Jian died, and with a defeat, the 200,000 army is probably not enough now, and there is no need to produce a few powerful generals. What's the use of a large number of people?

With the strength of Hulao and the dangerous terrain, Hulao Pass can actually invest about 30,000 troops at one time. If they are all as they fought like yesterday, let alone 200,000, or 2 million, it would be useless to deal with others. What's more, Tao Qian made up his mind to scare the enemy to death by relying on the number of people. After living so much, it was the first time that Cao Cao heard of such a war.

When the other princes heard this, they nodded and praised. Cao Cao wanted to say something else, but heard a deafening cry of killing outside the camp, and the camp was riots.

"What happened outside?" Yuan Shao's expression changed when he heard the voice, and he quickly stood up and said.

"Report to the leader of the alliance, it's... it's Lu Bu stealing the camp!" Cao Bao, a fierce general under Tao Qian, came in in panic and said with a sad face.

"Stealing the camp and robbing the village?" Yuan Shao was stunned when he heard this and cursed: "This is broad daylight, do you think Lu Bu steals the camp and robbing the village? How did he steal it?"

"Yes...yes..." Cao Bao glanced at Yuan Yi helplessly and said, "Na Shanyang Prefect's tent was robbed, and Lu Bu drove away the defeated army and collided with our army camp."

"What!" Yuan Yi's expression changed drastically when he heard this. He hurriedly ran out of the camp, and the others also quickly got up and ran out of the tent.

I saw that many places in the camp had been ignited by fire. Among the fleeing coalition forces, I saw teams of cavalry galloping and rushing among the chaotic army. They were the leader, and the red rabbit horse was neighing under their crotch and the painting halberd in the sky in the palm of the hand. Even among the thousands of troops, people could recognize him at a glance.

"The Lu thief is too bullying!" Yuan Shao looked at Lu Bu who was galloping back and forth among the crowd with a blue face, cursed and pointed his sword at Lu Bu and said, "Who killed this thief with me?"

The princes were afraid of Lu Bu's power, and no one dared to respond. Seeing Lu Bu galloping among the crowd, what they brought this time was not the soldiers and horses of Bingzhou, but the bravery of Xiliang under Dong Zhuo. Among the eight thousand horses, horse hooves flew over and broke into the coalition camp like a torrent of steel. Wherever they passed, corpses were everywhere.

Seeing that no one agreed, Yuan Shao couldn't help but sigh: "I am sorry that my general Yan Liangwen Chou is not here, but there is one person here, why are you afraid of Lu Bu?"

When the princes heard this, they continued to remain silent. No one of the huge coalition forces dared to resist Lu Bu.

Under Cao Cao's command, the Xiahou brothers and the Cao brothers wanted to come forward, but were stopped by Cao Cao. These princes were not serious about doing things. They only talked about scriptures and studies all day long, and scolded Dong Zhuo together. Those who had a little contribution were excluded by them. There were Sun Jian and Ye Zhao, and now there was Gongsun Zan, so they should make these people have a memory. On this battlefield, the most useless thing is the classics. No one could come here to discuss the classics with you. If you are so arrogant, you will sooner or later cheat yourself.

Lu Bu led his army to fight for a while. Seeing that no one came to stop him, he was happy and left behind a corpse. After leaving behind 8,000 Western Liang cavalry, he left. It was not until this time that the princes breathed a sigh of relief.

Just looking at the messy battlefield, all the princes were speechless.

The 200,000 army was robbed by Lu Bu in the whole day. Although it was not completely defeated, Lu Bu was allowed to lead the 8,000 cavalry and come and go freely among the 200,000 army. This made many people realize the importance of a powerful general to an army for the first time.

After returning to the military tent, the atmosphere became obviously a little different. Although the war damage had not been settled, the coalition forces of the princes and the 200,000 troops allowed Lu Bu to come in, but no one dared to compete. If this matter was spread, the coalition forces would not want to be faced or something.

"Meng De, why don't we invite Gongsun Bogui back now?" Liu Dai looked at Cao Cao awkwardly.

What have you done long ago?

Cao Cao was so angry that if Gongsun Zan did not leave, even if the coalition forces were weak, it would be a systematic training war. As long as Gongsun Zan could involve Lu Bu, he could die even if he was exhausted.

But these people looked down on Gongsun Zan before, and even spoke ill of each other. Now that they saw Lu Bu's power, they immediately began to miss Gongsun Zan a little. At least they really dared to fight.

What have you done long ago?

Cao Cao felt a little depressed and shook his head and said, "Bo Gui left with anger. With his temperament, I am afraid that no one will be useful at this moment!"

Even if the recall is returned and Gongsun Zan's troops are dispersed, how can he compete with Lu Bu? As for the soldiers of the princes, haha, will these people be willing to hand over the military power in their hands?

"If Lu Bu attacked our army like this every day in the future, how should our army deal with it?" Qiao Mao frowned.

This is also the most worrying issue for everyone. Lu Bu launched an offensive in broad daylight without warning, and even successfully secretly camped. If this continues, before Ye Zhao and Yuan Shu can break through the two levels, they will have to be beaten by Lu Bu's fighting style first.

"For the sake of the present, we can only strengthen our defense and not give Lu Bu an opportunity to take advantage of it." Cao Cao sighed and said, "In addition, it is to turn the defense and attack. In fact, our army should attack, but now it is the leader of Lu Bu. If the iron barrel of Hulao Pass cannot be encircled, then Lu Bu is all under his command. As long as he leaves Hulao Pass, he can launch an attack at any time, which is even more unfavorable to our army!"

When the princes heard this, they chose to remain silent again. In this way, they had to take action. Tao Qian and others looked at Yuan Shao unconsciously. No matter how much they said, Yuan Shao was the leader of the alliance, and this kind of thing should be decided by Yuan Shao.

"Okay, just follow Meng De's words!" Yuan Shao stood up with some depression and said, "You all need to set up a camp and set up a defense. Don't let Lu Bu succeed again!"
