In the camp of the alliance army.
The 200,000-strong army of the eight vassals was defeated, and even the Governor of Hanoi, Wang Kuang, was killed.
Once the news spread out, it directly made Yuan Shao unable to sit still!
Dong Cheng first broke three thousand from three hundred, then defeated Bao Zhong and then Sun Jian.
Although Sun Jian's weakness had been caught due to the lack of food, it was undeniable that he had defeated Sun Jian's slash.
Hulao Pass defeated the Hanoi army, killed Fang Yue and Wang Kuang.
Immediately, he defeated the 200,000-strong army!
At this moment, Dong Cheng was already like a god of war in the alliance army!
"I didn't expect that there would be such a powerful person under that thief Dong!”
"Everyone, do you have any plans to defeat the enemy?”
Although Yuan Shao was the Alliance Master, he was chosen because of the reputation of the four generations and three dukes. It had nothing to do with ability.
The current Yuan Shao was completely unable to think of a strategy that could deal with Dong Cheng.
And Yuan Shao did not have any powerful strategists by his side at the moment.
The one who asked Dong Lianjun to come up with a plan was still Cao Cao, the vice alliance leader.
Cao Cao frowned.
He had met Dong Cheng before.
But when he met Dong Cheng in Luoyang, Dong Cheng was just a person who often followed Wei Yang Lord Dong Bai, and was given a sinecure by Dong Zhuo.
If it wasn't for Dong Bai, Cao Cao wouldn't even remember Dong Cheng.
However, such a nameless person had actually transformed into General Pingdong, who made the entire alliance fear him!
Qiao Mao, Yuan Yi, Bao Xin, Zhang Yang, Tao Qian, Gongsun Zan, and Kong Rong all lowered their heads in silence.
Their 200,000 strong army had suffered a crushing defeat and had long lost the heroic bearing they had when they first met.
How much they bragged back then, how ashamed they were now!
They had once thought that Dong Zhuo's subordinates were useless, but in the end, Dong Cheng, who they had never heard of, had stepped on them and made them famous from obscurity!
As for the remaining dukes.
Whether it was the minor characters like Yuzhou Governor Kong Wei, Yanzhou Governor Liu Dai, Chenliu Governor Zhang Miao, Guangling Governor Zhang Chao, Jizhou Governor Han Fu, or the fierce figures like Sun Jian, Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao, their morale was low.
The entire alliance army tent was filled with helplessness.
Cao Cao sighed.
He wanted to blame her, but he couldn't.
If this alliance army was under Cao Cao's command, he would be able to take down Tiger Cage Pass in ten days!
But it was a pity!
He, Cao Cao, had only become a vice alliance leader by faking the imperial edict.
He only had around ten thousand soldiers under him.
There was no way he could contend with Dong Cheng of Tiger Cage Pass.
Coupled with the loss of the 200,000 alliance army, it was a fatal blow to the morale of the alliance!
Not to mention ordinary soldiers.
Even half of the 16 dukes here believed that Dong Cheng was no match for them!
Qiao Mao and Yuan Yi had the deepest feelings. They already had plans to return to their respective encampments.
With the army staying here, the daily consumption of rations was extremely severe.
They were here to gain fame, not to be bullied!
At this moment.
Yuan Shao's trusted aide suddenly came to the tent and whispered something in his ear.
Instantly.
Joy appeared in Yuan Shao's eyes!
"There's good news from Luoyang. Dong Zhuo has requested to confer Dong Cheng the title of East Conquering General. Dong Cheng is returning to Luoyang!”
Cao Cao suddenly stood up.
"Benchu, is that true?"
"The news was sent by my uncle, Grand Tutor Yuan Huai, so it must be true. However, I don't know if Dong Cheng will listen to my orders and go to Luoyang!”
"But with this information, we can send more scouts to spy on Dong Cheng's movements!"”
What Cao Cao cared about was not Dong Cheng's departure.
What Cao Cao cared about was whether Dong Cheng's return to Luoyang would be able to raise the morale of the soldiers!
The current Dong Cheng was like a huge mountain, pressing down on the back of Dong Zhu Hou.
If they continued to fight Dong Cheng, Cao Cao was sure that some of these dukes would want to retreat!
If they were defeated and retreated, the alliance would become a joke!
Cao Cao was not convinced!
Cao Cao wanted to gamble again!
If Dong Cheng returned to Luoyang, it would give these cowardly provincial governors and prefects the courage to attack Tiger Cage Pass again. That would be a good thing!
"Everyone! This Cao is willing to help you plan the strategy to attack Hulao Pass and Mushui Pass!”
"I hope everyone can work together!”
"As long as we break through either of the two passes, our 500,000 strong army will be able to reach Luoyang City!”
"At that time, all of you will be heroes who have helped the king!”
Cao Cao's words were very provocative.
Because of this piece of information, the provincial governors and prefects who originally wanted to retreat gradually felt at ease.
As long as he didn't fight Dong Cheng, there was still hope!
" Meng De," Han Fu said first," Mushui Pass is easier to attack than Hulao Pass. Why don't we formulate a strategy to attack Mushui Pass first?"”
Qiao Mao, Zhang Yang, Zhang Chao and the others also agreed.
Li Jue and Guo Si were in Mushui Pass, so it was much easier than Tiger Cage Pass!
Even if Dong Cheng wasn't here.
They did not have the confidence to attack Tiger Cage Pass!
Especially those who had seen Dong Cheng and the other valiant generals, they were even more terrified!
Cao Cao was helpless.
He could only formulate a strategy to attack Mushui Pass first.
As long as he could mobilize the enthusiasm of this group of people to attack the pass, everything else was not important!
