Chapter 179 Dong Zhuo Calls for a Battle

As for the shooting stars in the sky, the red light illuminates the earth. Although it shines in the Qiang camp, the Han army can naturally see it clearly.

"Zhang Cheqi! The red light of the shooting star from the sky enters the camp of the Qiang people. The Qiang people must be panicked. We can take the opportunity to send troops, and we will surely defeat the Qiang bandits."

In the camp of the Han army commander, Dong Zhuo suddenly stood up and begged Zhang Wen who was sitting in the commander's seat.

But Zhang Wen frowned: "The red is used to flying across the sky, it may be an ominous omen, we'd better hold back and wait for the opportunity."

Zhang Wen basically had no experience in leading troops. Although Zhi Jinwu Yuan Pang commanded the imperial guards in the palace, no army had ever entered Luoyang City, so naturally there was no need for the imperial guards to take action.

Since I have already stayed in Meiyang for three months, it doesn't matter if I stay a little longer. The Qiang people also have an army of nearly 100,000, so why worry?

Dong Zhuo frowned: "The reason why Zuo Cheqi was dismissed by His Majesty is that Zhang Cheqi doesn't know the reason? Now that we have delayed our war opportunity in Meiyang for another three months, I am afraid that the court is at the moment. Talk about Zhang Cheqi."

Huangfusong was dismissed because of several months of ineffectiveness, and Zhang Wen dawdled and didn't play, what if the emperor gets angry again? First remove Huangfusong, then take down Zhang Wen, change generals three times before the battle, and the soldiers have no fighting spirit. How can this battle be fought? Dong Zhuo didn't want to suffer along with Zhang Wen for delaying the fighter plane.

Zhang Wen frowned: "This"

"General Cheqi, I have been waiting in Meiyang for three full months, and the knives in the hands of the soldiers are about to rust. Sun Jian is willing to lead his troops to be the vanguard and break the front!" color.

Seeing that Sun Jian agreed with him, Dong Zhuo couldn't help looking over with a smile on his face, but Sun Jian didn't look sideways. Although he even proposed to Zhang Wen a few months ago that he wanted to kill Dong Zhuo to stand up, but now he also agrees with the number. Feeling impatient for Yue not going to battle, Dong Zhuo's favor was inexplicably won, which he did not expect.

Zhang Wen pondered for a while, then shook his head: "Let's wait a little longer, I'm ordered by the emperor, if there is any negligence, I'm afraid Sanfu will be shocked."

Sun Jian secretly sighed in his heart, and just as he was about to return to his seat, Dong Zhuo snorted coldly.

"Zhang's chariots and cavalry are very cautious in using troops, I really admire him!"

After saying that, Dong Zhuo went out with a face full of anger.

But this time Sun Jian didn't say anything, because he was also very disappointed with Zhang Wen, so he sat still.

And Zhang Wen was dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo's arrogance, but he was used to it, so he didn't say anything. But unexpectedly, not long after, a person suddenly broke into the camp with a panicked expression.

"Chariot General! Dong Polu led his troops out of the camp."

"What?" Zhang Wen was taken aback and stood up immediately.

"Bao Junjun's army also went with Dong Polu."

"Damn it, how dare Dong Zhongying send troops without authorization!"

Zhang Wen was furious, and drew out the long sword at his waist, and cut the table in front of him in half with one blow.

It's okay for Dong Zhuo to be arrogant and domineering normally, but to send troops directly without discussing with himself, is it too disrespectful to himself?

Sun Jian looked at Zhang Wen with unchanged expression, but sneered in his heart.

Zhi Jinwu Yuan Peng frowned, and asked cautiously: "Zhang Cheqi, shall we send troops to respond?"

"No!" Zhang Wen snorted coldly, "It would be best for Dong Zhuo to be defeated, and let him know what it means to be tall and strong, otherwise you won't be able to turn against the sky in the future?"

When Zhang Wen's camp was furious, Dong Zhuo had already returned to the barracks, summoned his 12,000 subordinates, and also called the 5,000 troops brought by Bao Hong, the prefect of Fufeng County.

There was only a large flag with the word Dong waving in the wind, surrounded by many flags, "Li", "Guo", "Zhang", "Fan" and Bao Hong's "Bao" general flag, the flags fluttered , 17,000 troops rushed out of the barracks.

"Wen You, will the Qiang people really retreat?"

"Father-in-law, don't worry, the Qiang people are contemptible. Yesterday they shouted horses, but today they will definitely retreat. Our army will cover up and kill them later, and we will surely reap miraculous results."

Under the banner of General Dong, two cavalry were talking, one of them was Dong Zhuo, and the other was wearing a robe but not armor. It was Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, Li Ru, a well-known resourceful man in Liangzhou.

Dong Zhuo laughed loudly: "Okay, let Zhang Wen, a scholar, take a good look at the combat power of a certain army today."

send troops!

The 17,000 troops suddenly attacked, and under the guidance of their respective flags and generals, they charged towards the Qiang camp like a tide.

The Qiang army had already conveyed the news of their retreat, and at this moment the army had no intention of fighting. After someone reported the matter to Beigong Boyu, he didn't say anything.

"Just withdraw the troops, don't have to entangle with the Han army."

Dong Zhuo and Bao Hong lived in the northwest for a long time, most of them were cavalry, tens of thousands of cavalry charged, it was really like a flood, countless horseshoes beat the ground, and their sabers shone brightly.

Beigong Boyu led most of the Qiang people to retreat, and it was impossible to remain indifferent to Dong Zhuo's pursuit, so thousands of cavalry were left behind.

"kill!"

The two generals Li Jue and Guo Si rushed up with their subordinates, and two groups of 4,000 Xiliang cavalry were divided into left and right, as if two sharp knives had been inserted into the Qiang army.

The war horses staggered head-on, and the Xiliang iron cavalry raised their sabers and cut the Qiang cavalry on the opposite side in two. The internal organs and intestines floated out together, and hot blood splashed all over his body.

Although Dong Zhuo and Bao Hong combined had less than 20,000 people, they had an advantage over the mere thousands of Qiang people behind. What's more, these Qiang people have long been thinking of retreating. Facing the impact of the brave Xiliang iron cavalry, how can they have any intention of fighting each other with their lives?

The Xiliang iron cavalry rolled forward, the Qiang people were killed without any fighting spirit, and Qiang people fell off their horses all the time.

A Hu Qi and the Xiliang cavalry on the opposite side charged head-on for a while, and the saber in his hand was almost thrown out of his hand by the opponent.

No, let's go!

Hu Qi, who had recovered his life, no longer had the will to fight in his heart, so he pulled his horse and fled. Seeing that he had escaped, many Hu Qi didn't want to continue fighting, so without saying a word, they turned around and joined the ranks of fleeing for their lives.

There were not many Hu Qi in the first place, but now many people escaped, and the remaining Hu Qi were suddenly knocked over by the torrent of Xiliang iron cavalry, causing countless casualties.

Dong Zhuo laughed loudly, and turned his head: "Wen You, you are right, these Qiang people have no intention of fighting at all."

Li Ru smiled slightly: "Father-in-law, the Qiang people are afraid, so they should continue to pursue."

"good!"

Dong Zhuo and Bao Hong continued to chase after them, biting Hu Qi's tail tightly and not letting go.
