In Li Yunze's view, the so-called Three Kingdoms may seem lively, but in fact most of the time they show their power on their own people.
The Kwantung Allied Forces came to attack Dong Zhuo, essentially just to fight for control of the Han Dynasty.
Li Yunze had no intention of getting involved in this internal struggle for power among the big men, but Yuan Shao's arrogance made him angry.
If the sky is crazy, there will be rain; if people are crazy, there will be disaster.
If he offends the petty Li Yunze, Yuan Shao's position as alliance leader will be in trouble.
Entering Hulao Pass, the chubby Dong Zhuo actually had the courage to bring his generals to greet him in person.
He knew how fierce Li Yunze was, and he also knew that he was alive now entirely because he was using the Huns' heads to prolong his life.
But even so, Dong Zhuo still took huge risks to greet Li Yunze in person.
After all, when he was young, Dong Zhuo was also the most famous powerful hero in Liangzhou, and he still had some courage.
"Wahahaha~~~"
Dong Zhuo, who had a full beard on his face, smiled and stepped forward to Li Yunze and said, "Mr. Zihou is here."
Li Yunze raised his hand to stop Dong Zhuo's next words, "Get out of the way, you are pretending to beeping in my way."
Ignoring the eager, hostile, or frightened looks of many Xiliang military generals, Li Yunze walked directly past Dong Zhuo and walked straight to the city wall of Hulao Pass.
Again, if anyone else had dared to do this, Dong Zhuo would have summoned the Xiliang army to surround him and skin him and remove his bones.
But the problem now is that even if the Xiliang army surrounds him, they can't do anything to him and they will be beaten until they collapse.
It's not like the Xiliang army had never surrounded Li Yunze before, but unfortunately the result was very tragic.
Li Yunze stepped up to the city tower, and what he saw was a huge military camp stretching for dozens of miles outside the city.
Countless flags of various colors fluttered in the wind, and many soldiers and horses came and went. The scale and momentum were truly astonishing.
During the Han Dynasty, the blood of the sons of the Han family was still cold, and martial arts among the people was extremely popular.
Most of these troops outside Hulao Pass are mainly local county soldiers, supplemented by recruited young ranger Liang Jiazi and others.
Although it is not as powerful as the border army, it depends on who you are comparing with.
Compared to the Shence Army at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the Imperial Guard Army at the end of the Song Dynasty, and the Three Battalions at the end of the Ming Dynasty, they were definitely at the elite level in the world.
What’s more, there are too many of them.
The coalition claims to have an army of hundreds of thousands, but that is really not an exaggeration.
At this time, Dong Zhuo and others had already followed, smiling and saying without changing their expressions, "This battle with the rebels depends entirely on the power of Mr. Zihou."
"It's not impossible to ask me to take action."
Li Yunze rubbed his chin and looked at Dong Zhuo, who had a sinister face, "We need to have a good discussion on the price."
Dong Zhuo'(°_°)'
He looked at Li Yunze blankly, then turned to look at Li Ru, waving his hands back and forth to signal.
We need to have a good discussion about the price. Didn’t we already negotiate it before? Li Ru, what kind of thing are you doing on your own horse!
Li Ru, who had a good mind, was also dumbfounded. He hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Zihou, didn't we negotiate before, 10,000 Huns?"
"That's the price of coming here."
Li Yunze said slowly, "Every time you ask me to take action, you have to pay for it."
Li Ruzhen couldn't help but rolled his eyes.
There's nothing like the demeanor of an outsider. It's nothing more than a profiteer.
Li Yunze hadn't finished speaking yet, "The specific price will depend on the difficulty, but the starting price is at least 3,000 Huns."
Li Jue beside him couldn't help but mutter, "The Huns in Hedong are almost wiped out."
Although the voice was small, it was still heard by Li Yunze.
He looked over and said, "There are no Huns, and there are Xianbei, Jie, Di, Qiang and other barbarians. As long as they are barbarians, I won't pick them."
Everyone just felt it was ridiculous.
Over there, Guo Si couldn't help but ask, "Since Sir hates Zhu Hu so much, why don't you do it yourself?"
"It's too slow for me to do things alone." Li Yunze simply shook his head, "In this kind of matter, there is still strength in numbers."
"no matter who."
Li Yunze looked around at the people around him with sharp eyes, "As long as he does not harm the Han people, as long as he can destroy the barbarians, I will help him!"
"I don't dare to say anything else. In terms of materials, I can get whatever I need."
Even if they join forces with the modern world, there is a high probability that they will not take action.
These things can only be done through consultation with these indigenous people.
The Xiliang army didn't know this. They only knew that it was bad luck for Zhu Hu to offend such a person.
Li Ru hurriedly asked, "Mr. Zihou, our Xiliang army has killed many Huns before and after. Why don't you see your supplies?"
He also knew that Wang Yun and others had received financial support from Li Yunze, and the amount was huge.
I never thought about it before, but now I know that my Xiliang Army also has this opportunity.
"That's because you all deserve to die!"
Li Yunze's eyes were slightly cold, "You have committed all kinds of evil since you entered Luoyang City, and you should have dealt with them all. That is to say, you can use Zhu Hu to extend your life. Whoever dares to harm the people, I will destroy him, and at worst, I will support his enemies. My ability , you can never imagine
Where are the boundaries? "
Dong Zhuo had no choice but to sigh and said, "Please sir, please disperse the Kwantung Allied Forces first."
"This can be done, but it will cost 50,000 heads of barbarians." Li Yunze snapped his fingers, "Pay first, then do the work."
Just like what Li Yunze said, if the Xiliang army hadn't kept attacking the Huns and using their heads to survive, Li Yunze would have killed them long ago.
It doesn't matter if there are too many people. Just kill everyone above the captain and above, and just offer a reward for the remaining stragglers.
But since they are still fighting Zhu Hu, Li Yunze is willing to let them live temporarily.
In this regard, the Kwantung Allied Forces outside Hulao Pass did far worse.
The Kwantung Allied Forces couldn't stand it anymore. With so many soldiers and horses gathered here, the daily consumption of food and military supplies was an astronomical figure.
It's not okay to just sit back and have nothing.
A few days later, the Kwantung Allied Forces launched a fierce attack directly on Hulao Pass.
All the princes will send troops together in proportion, and no one can take advantage.
During this time, many siege equipment built by the coalition of princes were also deployed in this battle.
Including rush cars, goose cars, crash cars, ladders (non-ladders, wheeled box structures), Lugong cars, nest cars and other large equipment.
The battle was extremely fierce. The Kwantung Allied Forces, mainly composed of county soldiers, attacked fiercely and attacked the city of Hulao Pass several times.
It was not until the defenders destroyed more than ten ladders with grappling hooks at the front and extremely strong bases that the fierce attack came to an end.
In this battle, the Kwantung Allied Forces suffered more than 5,000 casualties, and the Xiliang Army, which was the defender of the city, also suffered badly, suffering nearly 4,000 casualties.
Obviously they have the advantage of defending the city, and it is also the world-famous Hulao Pass. The Xiliang Army suffered such heavy losses. In addition to the good combat effectiveness of the Kwantung Allied Forces and the use of a large number of siege equipment, there is another important reason. The strongest thing about the Xiliang army is their
Cavalry, but when defending a city, cavalry is almost useless.
With the numerical advantage of the Kwantung Allied Forces, they were able to consume the Xiliang Army alive.
Li Yunze watched the fierce battle with cold eyes and was very dissatisfied with the lives of the Han family members being thrown into such a battle.
The late Han Dynasty was an era when aristocratic families and local powerful forces were at their peak.
Rather than saying that the emperor controls the world, it is better to say that the powerful people control the world.
The princes outside the Pass are basically from aristocratic families, and they only care about the power and interests of their own families.
As for what this country is like, I'm sorry, I'm not the emperor, it's none of my business.
And the lives of the sergeants were even less important.
Aren't they just people? Just like the grain in the fields, they will always grow one after another.
As long as the goal is achieved, it doesn't matter how many people die.
These aristocratic families have accumulated money, food and supplies over the past century to recruit people.
And Dong Zhuo in Hulao Pass is essentially a representative of local power.
The biggest difference between powerful people and aristocratic families is that they lack foundation, or they are more like nouveau riche.
Therefore, Dong Zhuo cherished his soldiers and horses, and lost thousands of elite soldiers in one battle. This blow was really heavy.
The soldiers and horses were sent out to borrow Zhu Hu's head for use, but they were so anxious that they could not come back.
Therefore, asking the great god Li Yunze to take action seems to be impossible for the time being.
There is no other way but to find a way to take advantage of the Xiliang Army.
The advantage of the Xiliang army is their cavalry.
In the next two days, both sides agreed to clean up the battlefield and transport away the dead and wounded outside Hulao Pass to avoid causing a plague.
After all, once a plague occurs, it doesn't matter whether you are a wealthy family or a powerful nouveau riche, everyone will be treated the same as long as you are infected.
In this unfair world, only death is fair.
The Xiliang army also took the opportunity to dismantle and transport all the damaged and abandoned siege equipment, and cleared the open space in front of Hulao Pass.
Another day with clear skies and mild weather.
Lu Bu, Lu Fengxian, Dong Zhuo's top horseman, led his Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry out of the city gate and formed a formation outside the pass to challenge the princes.
In official history, there are very few such duels.
After all, when you can fight in a group, who will challenge you in a one-on-one fight?
But in Lao Luo's Romance of the Three Kingdoms, one-on-one duels are normalized. One-on-one duels are repeated at all times, as if there is no way to fight without dueling one-on-one.
Among them, the only exception is Lu Bu.
Because when beating Lu Bu, everyone would beat him by default.
Li Yunze on the wall of Hulao Pass was lying on the female wall watching the battle.
He watched Lu Bu stab the famous Hanoi general Fang Yue off his horse with a halberd, watched the Shangdang governor Zhang Yang's general Mu Shun be knocked down by Lu Bu, watched the famous North Sea general Wu Anguo have his wrist cut off by Lu Bu, watched the famous general Gongsun Zan be killed Lu Bu chased him with no way to the sky and no door to the earth.
After that, he saw a classic scene.
The three brothers surrounded Lu Fengxian.
When Lu Bu couldn't resist and fled, Li Yunze took a step back and prepared to jump off the city wall.
Then he saw Dong Zhuo coming to his side, and immediately frowned, "Get out of the way, you're pretending to beeping in my way!"
Dong Zhuo was surprised and doubtful, "Sir, are you going to take action? But the troops who went to destroy Zhu Hu have not returned yet."
Without looking back, Li Yunze jumped directly and jumped off the wall of Hulao Pass.
He only left one sentence for Dong Zhuo.
"I can pay on credit this time."
