Luoyang is still prosperous.

The tall and solemn palace in the middle is still majestic, but the overwhelming authority of the past has long gone.

On the right side of Dong Zhuo's mansion is the residence of Zhang Chen, Dong Zhuo's second son-in-law. However, the mansion is a little deserted now.

Because the owner of this mansion, Zhang Chen, took his soldiers to live in the military camp for more than two months, and the beautiful little sisters Xiaochan and Xueer in the backyard were really deserted.

Luoyang City is adjacent to the Yellow River in the north, and between the port and the main city of Luoyang, there is a huge military camp, which is Zhang Chen's military camp.

The soldiers who were originally recruited after the crusade against Ma Teng were all transferred to Xu Rong's account by Dong Zhuo. Zhang Chen was also happy with this, as he knew that it was not so much the soldiers but the quality.

Lieutenants Zhang Xiu and Xu Huang each led 3,000 troops to the left and right sides of the camp, while Zhang Chen led Zhang Heng, Lao Jiang, and 4,000 troops to the center and practiced separately all day long, because Zhang Chen knew that the day of the war was not far away.

Far.

With the old fox Jia Xu advising Dong Zhuo, his son-in-law's status became more and more important, and he was already on the same level as Lu Bu, Li Ru and others.

Zhang Chen's barracks is staffed by 500 personal soldiers from Zhang Chen's own headquarters every day, and there are strict rules for entry and exit. All this is to keep his previous training methods as a special forces soldier secret.

Zhang Xiu was responsible for training the infantry. He taught the soldiers Tong Yuan's basic marksmanship one shot at a time. After two months, it had begun to bear fruit.

There are three thousand cavalry in Xu Huang's tent, which is not too many among the Xiliang army with many cavalry. These three thousand cavalry are Xu Huang's old comrades under Zhang Ji, and it goes without saying that they have a tacit understanding.

Zhang Chen's four thousand troops were divided into five battalions.

There is the spirit camp responsible for serving as sentries, the strange camp responsible for sneak attacks on the city, the raiding camp good at surprise attacks and pursuits, and the mad camp capable of defeating one hundred, each with 500 people. The training methods of the four major camps are completely different, all led by Zhang.

Chen trained alone. After Zhang Heng surrendered, he was diligent and diligent. Although his ability was not very good, he always faced it with all his strength. He took the remaining two thousand people to undergo more rigorous training than Zhang Xiu and Xu Huang's army, and became an army.

Elite soldiers.

It was night, Zhang Chen had a rare free time, and walked outside the military camp to relax. Not far away, Lao Jiang followed with a few soldiers. Although there were Lu Bu, Xu Rong, and Dong Zhuo's headquarters military camps around, some precautions must be taken.

Accidents like wild beasts and bad guys.

It has been seven years since the Zhongping war [March 190], and I don’t know when the battle will come.

Zhang Chen was alone one day meditating under the moon. In Yecheng, which was thousands of miles away from him, more than 100,000 troops were gathering overnight. Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zan, Liu Bei, Han Fu and other princes came to gather with their elite troops and generals.

In the Central Plains, in the Chenliu City facing the majestic Hulao Pass, the first pass in the world, a generation of traitors are still awake.

"Yuan Rang, how are the armies from all directions in the Central Plains gathering?" Cao Cao was reading military books on the couch, and Xiahou Dun was also beside him.

"Meng De, Liu Dai, who is the fastest among all the armies, is only a few dozen miles away from us. If he marches in a hurry, he can arrive tomorrow. Kong Rong, who is the furthest away, also asked General Wu Anguo of his headquarters to lead the vanguard troops to come quickly.

Before the armies from the north and south reach Hulao Pass, our army from the middle can also assemble."

"That's good. With this lineup, why worry about Thief Dong!"

In Wancheng outside Sishui Pass in the south of Luoyang, Yuan Shuzheng, Sun Jian, Liu Biao and others were drinking and feasting. They were waiting for the last few princes such as Wang Lang, Yan Baihu and others.
