C46 Sudden change of situation

After resting for a while, West Cold Army continued his fierce attack. Chen Lang and Cao Cao Cao's allied army relied on the ground to forcefully resist, the two sides fought fiercely for a full three days and three nights, killing many corpses on the ground, but West Cold Army was unable to take a step forward. Dong Zhuo was furious, but there was nothing he could do in the face of such a tenacious opponent.

Dong Zhuo could not help but be slightly discouraged and said to Li Ru: "Just two armies are enough to prevent my West Cold Army from advancing. If the entire imperial army is transferred over, wouldn't we have no choice but to retreat?" Li Ru, who had always been a resourceful person, didn't know what to say at this moment.

After the meeting ended, Li Ru found Jia Xu and asked, "Wen He, what do you think we should do now?"

Jia Xu laughed, and asked instead of answering: "What does Wen You think?"

Li Ru frowned: "Our troops' rations are already insufficient, and our opponents are so tenacious. I'm worried that even before our rations are exhausted, we won't be able to break through their defenses! The most worrying thing was still the movement of the imperial government's main army! If the main force of the imperial government were to come here, the situation in our West Cold Army would be in grave danger! "

Jia Xu laughed: Didn't you guys come to the Empress He before?

Li Ru was startled, and asked: "Empress He? What's the use of that? "

Jia Xu smiled and said, "I presume that the Empress He's emissary would definitely come once again. There may be unexpected surprises. " Li Ru's face was full of suspicion.

Jia Xu said: "Just relying on Empress He is not that reliable. If Chen Lang and Cao Cao Cao were true heroes, I'm afraid we still would not be able to break out of this predicament. So we should have another means. We can use our main forces to confront Chen Lang here, and at the same time send a group of people to cross the Yellow River to the north, and then cross the Yellow River to the south, and suddenly enter the Luoyang. If this operation is successful, the Luoyang will fall into his hands, and not only will the danger be solved, the entire world will be in your hands as well! " Li Ru was overjoyed, and anxiously said: "I'll report to the lord right now!" As he spoke, he impatiently ran towards the big tent.

After a moment, Dong Zhuo's laughter came from the tent.

Zhang Ji looked at Jia Xu and praised, "Wen He's magnanimity is truly admirable!"

Chen Lang and Cao Cao Cao were discussing their strategy of fighting against their enemies. Cao Cao Cao Cao frowned: "West Cold Army's fighting strength is indeed worthy of its reputation. Chen Lang said: "I hope our prediction is correct, if not, in a few days, we will not be able to persevere any longer!" Cao Cao looked worried.

Guan Yu hurried in and cupped his fists and said: "Big brother, General Cao, the angel has arrived!"

Chen Lang and Cao Cao Cao looked at each other, then Cao Cao laughed: "Could it be that the imperial government has gathered all of our army?" Chen Lang said to Guan Yu: "Please be an angel." Guan Yu replied and left the room immediately. Following that, a middle-aged eunuch came in with an imperial decree. After the chaos in Luoyang not long ago, many eunuchs were massacred, but there were still many eunuchs who survived and remained on duty in the palace.

The eunuch bowed slightly towards Chen Lang and Cao Cao, the secretary activated the imperial edict and shouted: "Under the imperial edict, kneel down and receive!"

The two of them knelt on one knee.

The eunuch recited, "I will follow the destiny of the heavens, the imperial edict..." After reading a bit of nonsense, he turned to the main point, "The Western Lion Thorny Stonecroft, Shi Donghuo, is being appointed to the capital as the diligent king. He is not a rebel, so you all can no longer obstruct him and bring calamity upon yourself! On the day of the decree, you will immediately withdraw your troops and make way for the loyal foreign vassals to see the light of the sky and rest their hearts! This! Generals, accept the decree to thank us. "

Chen Lang accepted the order and the two stood up. When the eunuch saw the two of them continue to carry out the imperial edict, he smiled and said, "The empress dowager and Your Majesty know that the two generals have worked loyally for the country. When the two generals return to the Luoyang, they would definitely receive heavy rewards! My family congratulates the two generals! We still have to return to report back. Farewell! " And then, he nodded towards the two and left.

Cao Cao couldn't help but scold, "How ridiculous!"

Chen Lang looked at the imperial edict in his hand and frowned, "I never thought that the empress dowager would actually send such an imperial edict! Dong Zhuo led 400,000 West Cold Army into the capital city and disobeyed the orders of the capital city's garrison. He openly engaged in a huge battle with the capital city's garrison army.

Cao Cao asked Chen Lang: "What are Brother Chen's plans?"

Chen Lang pondered for a moment, then decisively said, "I will not accept any orders from an outsider! I have decided to continue to obstruct Dong Zhuo in order to force him to retreat! " Cao Cao said excitedly: "Brother Chen's words are just as I say! We will continue to block them! "

When Dong Zhuo heard that Empress Dowager He had given Chen Lang the order to retreat, he could only stare helplessly as Chen Lang withdrew his troops. However, after an entire day had passed, the Ying Yang Army and Cao Jun showed no signs of retreating. Dong Zhuo couldn't help but grow anxious and asked Empress Dowager He's emissary, "Didn't the empress dowager already issue an imperial decree? Why did the army on the other side not seem to retreat at all? It can't be that you're lying to me, right? "

The envoy hastily replied, "Indeed, they have given the order to the General Ying Yang and General Cao! Why did they not retreat, I do not know! "

Dong Zhuo snorted and said angrily: "Since they don't know what's good for them, I will kill them all!" He then ordered the generals, "Generals, listen up. Attack!"

All the generals responded in unison, but Li Ru hurried to say: "Master, please calm down! Please don't be angry, my lord! Lord, don't forget our plan! Right now, there's no need for us to fight them head on. As long as Guo Si and the other two generals win, the situation is set! At that time, Chen Lang and Cao Cao Cao would be like a turtle in a jar, if Master wants to do something with them, wouldn't Master be happy with how you do it! " Dong Zhuo felt that Li Ru's words made sense and laughed out loud.

After Chen Lang and Cao Cao decided to continue guarding, they actively prepared to face Dong Zhuo's even more ferocious attack. However, to their surprise, Dong Zhuo didn't launch a fierce attack nor retreat. The army stayed where they were and didn't move. For two whole days.

Cao Cao frowned, "I feel something is wrong. Dong Zhuo's reaction should not have been like this! "

The two of them were moved at the same time. Cao Cao frowned, "Could it be that he has some conspiracy that we are unable to detect?"

Chen Lang frowned: "That's the only way!" Then he turned to Chunyu Qiong and said, "Immediately send scouts from all around to investigate the situation of the enemy!" Chunyu Qiong replied and ran down the stairs.

Just as Chunyu Qiong left, an officer dressed in dust rushed in. It was Cao Cao's staff member who was stationed in Luoyang. The military officer anxiously reported, "Not good, not good! Dong Zhuo's underling, Guo Si's second general, led fifty thousand Western Cold Cavalry Soldiers and crossed the Yellow River from the north straight into the Luoyang! "

Chen Lang and Cao Cao Cao were shocked, they immediately understood, and Chen Lang angrily shouted: "Damn! Guo Si must have circled around from the north bank of the Yellow River! " Cao Cao frowned, "I never thought that there would be such a resourceful person under Dong Zhuo's command!" Then, he said worriedly: "Guo Si has entered the Luoyang, we are now in a situation where we are being attacked from the middle. We are not in a good situation!" Chen Lang frowned: "I wonder how the other armies will react to West Cold Army now? If the other armies fight back, we will still have a chance to win this battle! "

One day later, the members of Cao Cao Cao's group who were staying in Luoyang rushed back to the barracks. They urgently reported: "Reporting to the two generals, the majority of the troops guarding the Luoyang have gone to Dong Zhuo!"

At the same time, Dong Zhuo was in a good mood. Not only did Guo Si enter the Luoyang, but to Dong Zhuo and the rest's surprise, the Central Army of the various ministries of the Luoyang did not resist, they all surrendered to him, causing his strength to instantly increase by a lot.

Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru and praised him infinitely: "Your plan is indeed useful! Once I enter the capital, I will definitely receive heavy rewards! " Li Ru was also very happy and immediately thanked him.

Niu Fu could not wait and said: "Master, it's time to eliminate Chen Lang and Cao Cao Cao!"

Dong Zhuo nodded and said loudly, "Those two brat dared to be my enemy, so I will cut them into pieces!" The generals began to howl as the bloodthirsty atmosphere filled the tent.

Li Ru anxiously shouted: "Master, master!"

The tent quietened down.

Li Ru cupped his fists and said: "Master. That Chen Lang and Cao Cao Cao were not simple people, especially Chen Lang and the Ying Yang Army under his command, they could be said to be as fierce as a tiger or a wolf, they were extremely brave! If we want to eliminate them, with our current strength in the West Cold Army, there is no problem at all. But I'm afraid we will have to pay a very painful price! "

As the crowd thought of the battle scene from the past few days, they couldn't help but feel a lingering fear. They felt that if they continued to fight, who knew how many more people would die before the battle could come to an end!

Dong Zhuo said snappily: "Are we just going to let it go like this?"

Li Ru hurriedly replied, "That is not true either. Master, the situation now was completely different from before, Chen Lang and Cao Cao Cao should know that if they continued to fight, there would only be death. We can send people to persuade them that as long as they come over, they will be able to make good use of their wealth and authority! On one side is hell, and on the other side is heaven. I believe Chen Lang and Cao Cao Cao would definitely make wise choices. "
