A moment later.
Dong Zhuo and the puppet emperor, Liu Xie, led the officials of the imperial court to the city tower of Luoyang. They were ready to see the Western Liang army with their own eyes.
After all, what one heard was false, and what one saw was true. If one did not see it with their own eyes, it could still be false.
Very quickly.
An earth-shattering sound rang out.
Thirty miles was a distance that could be covered in the blink of an eye for cavalry.
Therefore, when Dong Zhuo spent a moment to reach the city wall, the Western Liang Army was already less than five kilometers away from Luoyang.
At the same time.
It was as if the earth dragon had turned over (the ancient people called it an earthquake), and some people with weaker physiques were shaken until they could not stand steadily.
This scene shocked everyone even more.
Soon, a black torrent appeared on the horizon.
It was like a heavenly river that stretched across the earth.
Seeing the endless black torrent, everyone on the city gate tower could not help but gasp.
What followed was endless fear.
After all, no one knew why the Western Liang Army was here.
People were always afraid of the unknown, and the people on the city gate tower were the same.
Even the arrogant Flying General Lu Bu felt his entire body turn cold, and his blood flow became blocked.
Not to mention those weak scholars who were older.
A few old men on the city gate tower fainted on the spot, causing the people who were already filled with fear to panic even more.
Just as the city gate tower was in chaos.
The Western Liang Army had also arrived 300 steps away from the city.
At this moment, Lin Feng, who was in the middle of the army, raised the Heavenly Dragon City-Breaking Halberd that weighed over 300 jin and ordered,
"Stop!"
As soon as he finished speaking.
The entire Western Liang army stopped in their tracks and pulled on the reins of their warhorses almost at the same time, causing them to quickly stop galloping.
After landing, neither the man nor the horse made a sound.
This scene once again stunned everyone.
When had they ever seen such an elite army?
Even Dong Zhuo, who was a border warrior, had never seen such a force before.
This made Dong Zhuo feel that the Western Liang cavalry, which he had previously regarded as elites, were no longer as good as before.
Cao Cao, Xun You, and the others were also shocked.
"It's unbelievable that there are such elite soldiers in the world. I really want to see who the Xi Liang King is who can train such an army."
Cao Cao sighed in his heart.
One had to know that the current Cao Cao was no longer the hero who had been through hundreds of battles and unified two-thirds of the Great Han Dynasty.
The current Cao Cao was still a patriotic youth who dreamed of becoming the Western Conquering General.
At this moment.
Li Ru also roughly sized up the number of soldiers in the Western Liang army. When he sized them up, he was so scared that he almost had a heart attack.
300,000!
A total of 300,000 soldiers!
And they were all f * cking cavalry!!
When Li Ru came to these three conclusions, his heart stopped and his face was extremely pale. He looked like he was going to GG.
Dong Zhuo's performance wasn't any better.
The most powerful official in the world, who had just completed the deposing of the Son of Heaven, trembled involuntarily at this moment.
The number of soldiers was simply too frightening.
After all, Dong Zhuo had accumulated his wealth for many years, and after annexing the Luoyang Imperial Army and Bingzhou Army, he only had a total of 200,000 soldiers.
In the end, the Xi Liang Army had outnumbered Dong Zhuo by 100,000 soldiers.
More importantly, they were all cavalry.
This was ridiculous.
How did the King of Xi Liang manage to raise such a large cavalry in a barren land?
This was not only the question that puzzled Dong Zhuo, but also the question that puzzled everyone else.
Without giving the people on the city walls any time to think, Li Cunxiao, the commander of the vanguard under Lin Feng, directly rode his horse forward. He held the spear in his hand and pointed the tip of the spear at the people on the city walls. He shouted,
"Everyone on the city gate tower, listen up! I am Li Cunxiao, the vanguard general under the Western Liang King. If you know what's good for you, quickly bring out the former emperor's eldest son, Liu Bian, and Empress Dowager He and hand them over to my king! Otherwise, when the city fell, no one would be left alive!”
Arrogant!
Too arrogant!
Li Cunxiao's words were too arrogant. He didn't put the people on the city wall, including Dong Zhuo, in his eyes at all.
Everyone on the city wall, especially Dong Zhuo, had pale faces. His body was trembling violently. It was unknown whether it was because of fear or anger.
Dong Zhuo wanted to give the order to fight to the death with the Western Liang Army.
However, Li Ru seemed to have seen through his thoughts and quickly went forward to dissuade him.
"Prime Minister, a little forbearance will spoil the plan. We absolutely can't fight at this time. Otherwise, your many years of hard work will all go down the drain.”
After hearing the advice of his most trusted son-in-law, Dong Zhuo slowly calmed down.
Yes, he had just completed the act of "deposing" the emperor and had just stabilized his footing. If they started fighting now, wouldn't everything he had done be in vain?
Thinking of this, Dong Zhuo shouted to the city,
"General, may I know where the Xi Liang King is?”
When Li Cunxiao heard this, he directly mocked,"
"What does my king's location have to do with you? If it's the truth, hurry up and send the person my king wants. Don't talk nonsense!”
Hearing Li Cunxiao's arrogant words, Lu Bu couldn't hold it in anymore. Good heavens, he actually met someone who was even more arrogant than him. How could he endure this?
Hence, he stepped forward and said,"
"Godfather, this person is too arrogant. Your child requests to fight!”
Hearing this, Dong Zhuo thought that sending Lu Bu out alone would not cost him a large army, so he could accept it.
At the same time, it could also give the enemy a show of strength and make them not be so arrogant.
After all, Dong Zhuo had a bad temper. How could he tolerate the other party's repeated provocations?
Hence, he nodded and said,"
"Alright, remember not to hurt the other party's life. Just defeat him and let the Western Liang Army know that I, Dong Zhuo, am not to be trifled with!”
"This child will accept your orders!"
After saying that, Lu Bu went down the city gate tower and led his horse to prepare for battle.
This time, even the usually calm Li Ru didn't say anything to stop him. Presumably, he felt that doing so would be fine.
As for whether Lu Bu would lose? Dong Zhuo had never considered this problem.
Was this a joke?
How could a peerless general lose?
As a peerless general that only appeared once in a hundred years, was he invincible in the current world?
Dong Zhuo wasn't the only one who thought this way. Lu Bu himself thought the same way. After all, ever since he started his career, no one had been able to last more than ten rounds against him.
Thinking of this, Dong Zhuo's heart gradually relaxed.
Unfortunately, they could never imagine how terrifying the opponent they were facing this time was!
