"The alien lord Xu Fengnian general Wang Yanzhang, Li Hu defeated the governor of Yuzhou, Kong Yichang, and killed 6,000 Yuzhou troops. Kong Yichang fled in a hurry!"

"The alien lord, the old Qin general, Meng Tian, ​​stabbed the Guangling prefect Zhang Chao under his horse, killed the Guangling soldiers and horses, and beheaded three thousand!"

"The General Xu Rong of the Central Army defeated the prefect of Chenliu Zhang Miao. Zhang Miao was killed in the chaos army, and Chenliu's troops were killed or injured at least 5,000!"

"The cavalry commander Hua Xiong beheaded three thousand!"

The generals and lords of Dong Zhuo's camp who took the initiative to attack returned, and many troops won a great victory, which scared the princes of Kanto.

Dong Zhuo's gloomy expression finally soothed.

"The prime minister of Langya, General Fubo, Chu Zi, plotted to enslave troops to kill the cavalry commander Hu Zhen. His general Li Guang carried Hu Zhen's head and challenged him at Hulao Pass!"

"Chu Zi planned to kill the heads of our Xiliang cavalry, and captured thousands of prisoners, which shocked Heluo!"

When Dong Zhuo learned that various armies had won, he suddenly heard that the cavalry commander Hu Zhen was killed. In addition, Hu Zhen led the elite Xiliang cavalry, not the new recruits of the weak princes. The loss was about 2,000, which made Dong Zhuo feel very distressed.

"I have no peace if I don't die!"

Dong Zhuo's important general was killed by Chu Tian, ​​and he felt a little scared.

On the battlefield in Guangzong County, Chu Tian's general Zhou Yafu temporarily commanded the Han army and turned the tide. Dong Zhuo was also his savior, which impressed Dong Zhuo.

Now that Chu Tian has become Dong Zhuo's enemy, Dong Zhuo is very scared.

Chu Tian’s three generals defeated Lu Bu at Hulao Pass and killed Hu Zhen, the cavalry commander, which became Dong Zhuo’s confidant.

Dong Zhuo really has no choice but to do anything to Chu Tian.

Li Guang called out under Hulao Pass, but no one could do it after Lu Bu was injured.

The powerful general Wang Tieqin can fight against Li Guang, but Chu Tian and Xue Rengui and Zhao Yun go to fight, which is so powerful that Hulao Pass, no one dares to assist Wang Tieqin in the battle.

Dong Zhuo could also order the Western Liang Iron Cavalry to fight, but unfortunately there was a coalition of the Guandong princes outside the pass. Dong Zhuo was not willing to use the Western Liang Iron Cavalry as the trump card to avoid being consumed by the Guandong princes. He would be unable to control Guanzhong and Xiliang.

"Li Ru, Chu Zima is as fierce as a tiger and as cunning as a fox. I feel uneasy. What should I do?"

When Dong Zhuo faced Chu Tian's threat, he had no choice but to ask military advisor Li Ru.

Li Ru replied: "Chu Zimou came to fight not to support the Han Dynasty, and most of them were unwilling to be enemies with his lord. Yuan Shao conferred him as General Fubo and attracted him to join the Guandong coalition. If today, why didn't the lord's title of Chu Zimou and other lords in the name of the emperor, and let him turn against Yuan Shao into enemies, then the lord can benefit from it."

"Why is Feng Chu Zimou's official position? He is now the prime minister of Langya and General Fu Bo. Further up there are the governors of Xuzhou, the governor of Xuzhou, or Siping, Si'an, Sizhen, and Sizheng General... He is young, what qualifications are there to become the governor of the state and governor?"

Dong Zhuo thought carefully that Chu Tian was like a rank-level official, or a miscellaneous general, and almost nothing could be granted.

Li Ru said: "This is a bad word. If there is an official but no soldier, it is a false title. If you can use an official position to order Chu Zi to retreat, or if the princes are allowed to kill each other, the heroes in Guandong will be defeated without attacking and defeating them. The lord is profitable, so why should you care about the false title?"

“What’s the point.”

Dong Zhuo was reminded by Li Ru that he realized that the emperor was in his own hands and could use the emperor to enthrone official positions to cause internal strife among the princes. Once the princes had internal strife and could not take care of themselves, they would naturally be unable to attack him.

Another military advisor Jia Xu said: "The lord can confer Cao Cao as the governor of Yanzhou, Yuan Shao as the governor of Jizhou, Yuan Shu as the governor of Yuzhou, Sun Jian as the governor of Jingzhou, and Tao Qian as the governor of Xuzhou..."

"There are already people in Yanzhou, Jizhou, and Yuzhou, so why do you want to enthrone again?"

"There is no two days. If Cao Cao and Liu Dai were both the governor of Yanzhou, they would definitely have a gap. Yuan Shao was the governor of Jizhou, and Han Fu would be disloyal with him. Yuan Shu was greedy. If he was the governor of Yuzhou, he would definitely try to kill another governor of Yuzhou, Kong Yichang. Sun Jian was the governor of Jingzhou. Liu Biao was afraid of him and might cause trouble for him in Changsha. Tao Qian was the governor of Xuzhou and had the power to take charge of the military and political power of Xuzhou, so he would not allow the prime minister of Langya to expand his power."

Jia Xu made a plan to disagree, which made Dong Zhuo very satisfied.

Dong Zhuo plans to re-appoint a group of governors to make them conflict with the current governors.

Li Ru said: "Lord, it's time to move the capital to Chang'an, and our army's morale is still declining."

"From now on, all the population of Luoyang will be moved to Chang'an, and the property will be excavated. The imperial tombs will be obtained, and the property will be rewarded to the entire army!"

Although the cavalry commander Hu Zhen was killed, Dong Zhuo generally defeated the troops of the princes under Hulao Pass, and the princes of various routes retreated ten miles to prevent Dong Zhuo's army from attacking again.

During this period, Dong Zhuo sent envoys to announce the appointment of governors to some of the princes of Kanto.

"Dong Zhuo's traitor, I am a general of the Han Dynasty, how can I be appointed by him!"

Sun Jian was very angry at him and drove away the envoy sent by Dong Zhuo, but did not accept such an attractive position as the governor of Jingzhou.

Players who supported Sun Jian originally planned to persuade Sun Jian to accept the position of Jingzhou Governor for the time being, so that they would attack Xiangyang in the future, but since Sun Jian insisted, they would be useless.

Cao Cao did not accept the position of governor of Yanzhou appointed by Dong Zhuo, but continued to regard himself as the prefect of Dongjun and still regarded Liu Dai as governor of Yanzhou.

Cao Cao was also a wise man. He knew that the governor without military support was not as good as the prefect who held real power. At present, Cao Cao had annexed the soldiers and horses of Chenliu County who had Zhang Miao, and his strength was above the governor of Yanzhou Liu Dai, and he was the uncrowned governor of Yanzhou.

Yuan Shao hesitated for a long time when facing the position of the governor of Jizhou, but ultimately refused.

Among the princes under Hulao Pass, only Nanyang Prefect Yuan Shu accepted the appointment as the new governor of Yuzhou. This made Kong Yichang, the original governor of Yuzhou, deeply dissatisfied.

Yuan Shu seemed to want to covet his Yuzhou.

The Kanto princes generally remained in alliance, but the seeds of internal strife were planted because of this incident.

Even if Cao Cao refused the appointment of the governor of Yanzhou, Liu Dai was concerned about Cao Cao, and it was hard to say whether Zhang Miao really died at the hands of the Xiliang cavalry.

Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou, was also afraid of Yuan Shao. It is said that Yuan Shao had close contact with the alien lord of Jizhou.

In addition to the Guandong princes under Hulao Pass, there was another prince Tao Qian who did not participate in the Guandong coalition. He was granted the title of Xuzhou Governor and took charge of the military and political power of Xuzhou. Tao Qian also sent envoys to Luoyang using teleportation array to pay homage to the young emperor of Han.

"Yuan Shu was both incompetent and greedy, and actually accepted the position of governor of Yuzhou as enthroned by Dong Zhuo in private. Now he and Kong Yichang are like fire and will probably be together soon."

Chu Tian learned about Yuan Shu's decision and knew that Yuan Shu could not succeed. Compared with Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others, Yuan Shu was far inferior to Yuan Shu.

When Tao Qian accepted Dong Zhuo's enthronement and became the governor of Xuzhou, Chu Tian cared even more about it.

Dong Zhuo wanted to use Tao Qian to restrain him.

"If you enthrone me as Xuzhou Governor, I will probably withdraw my troops."

Chu Tian did not enthrone him, but instead enthroned him. If he had the title of Xuzhou Governor, he could openly start the action to unify Xuzhou, declare war on Donghai Kingdom, Xia Pi Kingdom, Pengcheng Kingdom, and Guangling County, and also gain greater support from the Xuzhou family.

Chu Tian believes that Dong Zhuo has not been afraid of being beaten by him, so he must be afraid of being beaten by Dong Zhuo, so that he will grant you a larger official position, request to withdraw from the army, and may even marry you.

Chu Tian also learned that Diao Chan seemed to have disappeared after the fall of Luoyang and did not come to Dong Zhuo's hands.

Many princes were afraid of being beaten by the Xiliang Legion and were waiting for the morale of the Xiliang Legion to continue to decline, so they did not attack Hulao Pass, but began to set up defenses and then drank and had fun.

Chu Tian secretly contacted Cao Cao, Sun Jian, Liu Bei, Mingguan, Prince Yan and other capable princes, and planned to invade Heluo. Yuan Shao and others remained indifferent, but Chu Tian and the others still wanted to regain Luoyang and might get more military achievements.

Suddenly, the prefect of Liaodong Mingguan received the news and came to Chu Tian: "Chu Zimou, although we will be opponents in the future, I have to remind you that Langya Kingdom is being besieged by Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian, Xuzhou and Yanzhou lords and forces. This time, the coalition forces claimed to be a total of 500,000 troops, aiming to capture Xiacheng. Langya City is besieged, and you can no longer return to Langya Kingdom directly."

Because at this time, Chu Tian was unable to contact the rear in time at Hulao Pass, but the well-informed Ming Pass took the lead in reminding Chu Tian.

Chu Tian's face changed slightly.

He rarely suffered a great loss. This time, the Langya Kingdom was plotted by Tao Qian, which was considered a great loss.

He did not expect that the weak Tao Qian would have such a strong side. However, in history, Tao Qian seemed to have indeed attacked Cao Cao and then beaten up by Cao Cao.

"This news is a favor I owe you. I believe that Langya Kingdom can be kept."

Chu Tian remained silent and could not show panic in front of other princes.

According to the information provided by Mingguan, the main city of Langya Kingdom has not been lost, which is enough.

After Cao Cao was attacked by Lu Bu and Zhang Miao, only three cities were left to turn the tables, so could Chu Tian do it.

An important choice is placed in front of Chu Tian. Should we return to the army immediately and how should we return to the army?

Since Tao Qian planned the attack on Langya Kingdom behind the scenes, he must have a perfect countermeasure. Surrounding Langya City, causing the teleportation array of Langya City to be invalid, and making Chu Tian unable to return to Langya Kingdom directly, this is Tao Qian's first and most important step.

There are five counties and states in Xuzhou, four of which are in the hands of Tao Qian, and Chu Tian cannot use these four teleportation arrays to return to the army. The lord of Taishan County in the west is also an enemy of Chu Tian. Then only the teleportation array of Beihai Kingdom can be used.

"Young Master Zhao and I have fought side by side, and he controls the North Sea Kingdom's teleportation array in his hands. If he can allow me to use the North Sea Kingdom's teleportation array..."

Chu Tian found a way to return to Langya Kingdom.

The teleportation array of Langya Kingdom failed, which also brought another problem. Apart from the food provided by Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou, Chu Tian could not get other supplies, especially the most important material - Arrow.

"Tao Qian, don't let me catch you in the future."

Chu Tian held a grudge against Tao Qian who stabbed him in the back.

"I can lend you a batch of arrows and you will return them back in the future."

Prince Yan, the prefect of Liaoxi, learned that Chu Tian’s territory was attacked and offered to provide supplies to Chu Tian.

"Although our Western Regions Protectorate has a little poor supply, you have any shortage of supplies, and you will definitely help you."

Huo'an from the Western Regions Protectorate also intends to make friends with Chu Tian.

Chu Tian only asked for a batch of bows and arrows as supplies, and he was temporarily owed it. He believed that Langya would defend it. Langya Kingdom still had 30,000 Xuzhou troops and 10,000 Qingzhou troops, plus a group of Taishan bandit generals and Xu Sheng. Tao Qian wanted to swallow Langya Kingdom, which was not that simple.

Then Chu Tian tried to contact Mr. Zhao from Shangbeihai to see if he could ask Mr. Zhao for reinforcements.

Chu Tian doesn't have to go back in person, just try to rescue the Langya Kingdom. Tao Qian joins the alliance, but Chu Tian also knows a group of lords.

If you want to go back, Chu Tian has to arrive at the nearby county town, then arrive at Beihai Kingdom, and then return to Langya Kingdom from Beihai Kingdom. It is estimated that it will take one month to use, and it may not be too late.

When she learned that Langya Kingdom was attacked by the coalition forces, Xia Tianliang commissioned the players who came to report to Chutian to arrive at Hulao Pass: "At present, all cities are defending, and there is no tendency to fall. Miss Xia said that she will definitely defend it. Please don't worry, lord, and act according to her plan."

Chu Tian felt a little relieved.

Langya Kingdom, the Jiuzhen area of ​​Hedong, was once the land conquered by Zhou Yafu, and five of them had been captured by the 40,000 coalition forces of the Donghai Kingdom.

Xueyue joined forces with Zang Ba, and Sun Guan led 12,000 troops from the northern and central areas of Langya Kingdom to enter Jiuzhen, Hedong, intending to defeat the East China Sea Alliance and then break the siege of Xiacheng.

Xiacheng has not yet fallen within ten days and half a month, and the same is true for Langya City.

With the strong city walls and Chu Tian’s two years of operation, and the guard Xu Sheng, how could it be so easy to be broken?
