"What should we do, Brother Benchu?”
Outside Luoyang, the dukes looked at each other as they watched Sun Jian's army slowly march toward Luoyang.
They were originally prepared to chase after him.
However, when he arrived, he discovered that Dong Zhuo had already been ambushed by Sun Jian once.
So now, were they still chasing after him?
As Kong Rong asked this question, the dukes all turned to look at Yuan Shao.
Cao Cao frowned and said,"
"Since we're already here, we should naturally pursue. How can we retreat?”
But just as he finished speaking, he heard Yuan Shao sigh,"
"Meng De, now that Thief Dong has retreated, we have rushed out without any reinforcements. We are unable to pursue!”
"In my opinion, let's retreat first!”
"What? Everyone wants to retreat?"
Hearing this, a look of disbelief appeared on Cao Cao's face.
They had already chased him to this point, and everyone was actually retreating?
However, the vassals did not notice Cao Cao's expression. When they heard Yuan Shao's words, they all sighed,
"That's right, Alliance Master is right. At this point, we can only retreat first!”
"Sun| Wentai has retreated, and the Dong thieves have gone far away. How can we fight?”
"Retreat, retreat. We'll return to Luoyang first.”
As everyone spoke, Cao Cao felt his heart grow colder.
These were the heroes that he had gathered by taking the risk to issue a false edict?
No wonder Dong Zhuo slipped away from under his nose!
The battle had come to this point, how could they retreat!
Thinking of this, he turned his gaze to Yuan Shao and said with a trace of hope,"
"Brother Benchu, you really don't want to chase me anymore?"
"This is a great opportunity!"
"Meng De, stop talking!"
Yuan Shao looked at Cao Cao and said,"
"Now that the three armies are exhausted, how can we chase them?”
"Why don't we go back to Luoyang first and rest for a while before chasing after them?”
"This... Sigh, forget it!"
When Cao Cao heard this, he sighed and said,"
"Since everyone wants to rest, then go back and rest first. However, after you rest, you must quickly pursue!”
"If we delay any longer, I'm afraid we won't have the chance to defeat Dong Zhuo!”
"We'll do as Meng De says!"
Seeing that Cao Cao had finally relented, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Under Yuan Shao's orders, he led the army towards Luoyang.
After arriving at Luoyang, the alliance army set up a large camp that stretched for dozens of miles. They covered almost the entire area around Luoyang.
After setting up the camp with great difficulty, the dukes gathered together again. Compared to the last time, there was an additional layer of sorrow.
When Sun Jian saw that the dukes who had originally wanted to pursue him had all returned, a cold smile appeared on his face.
This group of people was really a motley crew!
Fortunately, he had a strategist to plan.
Otherwise, he would end up like these dukes and gain nothing in this battle!
However, he was no longer the same as before.
Although he didn't show it on his face.
He was still chatting and laughing with the dukes.
They escorted a group of officials to Luoyang. When they saw the ruins, they all shed tears.
Yang Biao looked at Luoyang and wiped his tears with his sleeve."
"Dong Zhuo is truly an unpardonable villain. Our Great Han Empire is so great, but he has actually harmed it to this extent.”
When the ministers heard this, they were filled with emotions and cursed Dong Zhuo.
After cursing, the officials looked at the dukes and said with gratification,
"Fortunately, everyone is righteous. They raised an army to attack Dong and the country's bandits fled. It's really comforting!”
Lu Zhi also smiled at Gongsun Zan, Sun Jian, and Cao Cao."
"When we attacked the Yellow Turbans, I knew that you were not ordinary people.”
"Now it seems that my Great Han will still have to rely on you in the future!”
Facing Lu Zhi's praise, everyone expressed that they didn't dare.
Hearing this, Sun Jian smiled and said,"
"It's a pity that we don't have enough troops in this battle. Otherwise, we could definitely destroy that Dong thief in one battle and save the emperor!”
All the ministers looked sad when he said that.
The heroes felt ashamed again.
What did he mean by insufficient troops?
They were mocking them for being too slow!
They wanted to refute something, but they realized that their words were so weak.
The officials had yet to react and nodded repeatedly.
Huangfu Song looked at Sun Jian with admiration and said,
"Fortunately, there's a pillar like Wentai!”
"I'm very pleased to be able to defeat Dong Zhuo with fewer people!”
Huangfu Song was Sun Jian's old superior, so he was naturally relieved to see that Sun Jian wasn't colluding with Dong Zhuo.
Hearing Huangfu Song mention Sun Jian again, the ministers praised him again.
Putting everything else aside, just by chasing Dong Zhuo alone, he was a loyal subject of the Great Han Dynasty!
Only a capable general like him was the hope of the Great Han Dynasty!
Sun Jian was naturally overjoyed when he heard everyone's praise.
The value of the reputation he obtained from this battle was not the slightest bit inferior to those gold, silver, and money!
When the vassals saw this, they were even more envious. Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao looked at him with complicated expressions.
At this moment, Yang Biao glanced at Sun Jian, then at the group of heroes. He stroked his beard and said with a smile,
"Speaking of which, this old man is a little puzzled. I wonder if General Sun can answer my doubts?”
When Sun Jian heard this, he hurriedly said,"
"Duke Yang asks, Jian will answer everything!”
When Yang Biao saw this, he smiled and asked,"
"It's not a strange thing. It's just that since everyone is here to attack Dong, why did the only grandson general arrive first? From the looks of it, it seems that everyone is not on the same path as the general!”
Hearing Yang Biao's words, the ministers were all stunned. The dukes also looked at Sun Jian.
Sun Jian smiled and said,"
"That's because Jian came from the east of the river, so he didn't go with the other generals.”
"What?"
When the ministers heard this, they were all shocked."
"Did Wentai rush over from the east of the river?"
"Then why did you arrive earlier than the other generals?”
Although most of them were not trained in military affairs, they knew that it was not easy to cross the river from the east to the south and reach Luoyang.
Sun Jian had rushed over from the east of the river, yet he was able to arrive first?
Sun Jian was already prepared for this question. He smiled faintly and said,
"This is all thanks to the merit of the wise men under me!”
"Actually, our army was originally on the east side of the river, but our military counselor saw that Dong Zhuo's army was not moving and was worried that there might be changes in the south, so he ordered our army to go south!”
"After going south, I saw that Dong was moving people west. The military advisor was suspicious and concluded that he wanted to move the capital.”
"I suggest that I send a troop to the upper reaches of Chanhe River to build a dam, in case Dong Zhuo really wants to move the capital and attack!”
"I didn't believe it at first, but because it was just a guess, I didn't dare to report it casually!”
"But yesterday, when I saw Luoyang on fire, I knew that Dong Zhuo was serious about moving the capital, so I hurried south. As expected, I caught up with Dong Zhuo by the side of the stream.”
"This is only the big battle from last night!”
However, when the dukes heard this, they were all shocked.
Military Advisor!
Another military advisor!
According to Sun Jian's words, the reason he was able to appear here was also due to the military counselor's credit?
So when they confronted Dong Zhuo, they had deduced that Dong Zhuo wanted to move the capital and formulated the corresponding countermeasures?
Amidst his shock, Cao Cao hurriedly asked,"
"The military advisor that Brother Wentai mentioned, could it be that Mister Baili that we met last time?”
"That's right!"
Seeing Cao Cao's question, Sun Jian smiled and said,
"Speaking of which, everyone has seen it before. The person who deduced that Dong Zhuo was going to move the capital was none other than our military advisor Baili Ruozhong!”
The two of them asked and answered, causing the dukes to suddenly recall the situation at Mushui Pass that day.
The young man behind Sun Jian!
They thought Sun Jian was joking.
She didn't expect him to be serious!
Was that young man really Sun Jian's military advisor?
Furthermore, he had planned this ambush completely!
What a joke!
When the ministers saw the reactions of the dukes, they were all curious.
Yang Biao asked curiously,
"Who is this Baili Ruozhong that General Sun spoke of?”
Sun Jian was just about to make Baili Ming famous, so he quickly explained to everyone when he heard this.
Not only did he mention the key to Baili Ming's strategy, but he also mentioned how he had killed Hua Xiong and taken over the Mushui Pass.
As the ministers listened, the shock in their eyes deepened.
In the end, he was speechless,"
"There's actually such a genius in the world?"
This was also the first time that the dukes had heard of the details of seizing Mushui Pass. After hearing this, they did not speak anymore.
However, they looked at Sun Jian with envy.
How did such a talented person fall into Sun Jian's hands!
Under everyone's mixed reactions, Cai Yong stroked his beard and smiled,"
"Since you're such a talented person, why don't you call us over to take a look?”
When the officials heard this, they hurriedly said,"
"That's right. Why don't you call such a meritorious minister over to meet him?”
They were all extremely curious. What kind of person could have such talent!
When Sun Jian heard what everyone said, he said proudly,"
"Everyone, don't be anxious. Ruo Zhong is still at Little Pingjin Pass. I've already sent someone to fetch him, so he should be here soon.”
"When we arrive, everyone will be able to see it!”
When the ministers heard this, they could not help but click their tongues in wonder.
So after this military advisor planned, he didn't follow the army at all and became a hands-off manager?
Who exactly was this military advisor?
......
At this moment, on the official road from Mini Pingjin Pass to Luoyang.
"Tsk!"
Suddenly, someone sneezed from inside a car.
