In early May, Dong Zhuo personally led Xiliang's 290,000 cavalry into Hulao Pass, which was regarded as the king's 20,000 troops. A total of 310,000 Dong Zhuo's troops gathered on the front line. This was in addition to Xiliang Ma Teng and other fronts.

In addition to the troops, all Dong Zhuo's troops were assembled.

However, the small Hulao Pass could no longer accommodate so many troops, so Dong Zhuo had to divide the army into separate groups to protect Luoyang.

On the other hand, the North Allied Army led by Yuan Shao, the Middle Allied Army led by Cao Cao, and the South Allied Army headed by Sun Jian, a total of 290,000 troops, gathered at Hulao Pass and launched a decisive battle.

In the previous battle, Lu Bu's original 50,000 cavalry, except for the 5,000 men and horses in Hulao Pass, had all gone through the baptism of blood. Only 12,000 of the 50,000 Bingzhou cavalry returned to Hulao Pass.

Among them, the generals Wei Xu and Hao Meng were killed, which was a heavy loss for Lu Bu.

However, the Allies also paid a corresponding price. Among the Allied forces, Zhang Chao, the prefect of Guangling, suffered the heaviest losses. All the major generals in the army were beheaded. Except for his own personal guards, all the soldiers were besieged by the core of Lu Bu's army and lost their lives.

return.

The other armies and horses were also killed by Lu Bu's army, with a total of more than 25,000 casualties. Although Lu Bu was defeated in the end, people in the Allied Army now changed their minds when talking about Lu Bu.

In the world, the only army in the world that can be besieged by more than 200,000 troops and successfully break through the siege and deal a lot of blows to the Allies is Lu Bu.

...

In Hulao Pass, the Prefect's Mansion, Dong Zhuo looked at the generals under his tent with a very gloomy face. Lu Bu stood upright behind him, looking down upon the generals under his tent.

Five generals, Yang Feng, Wang Fang, Hu Zhen, Duan Xuan, and Li Su, each commanded 20,000 horses to garrison around Luoyang to protect the capital.

Jia Xu and Dong Zhuo's confidant Li Jue commanded an army of 100,000 and stationed themselves in Luoyang City.

Dong Zhuo led the Xiliang Army's outstanding troops, including 10,000 Dong family troops, in addition to the elite troops brought by Xu Rong, to personally defend Hulao Pass.

Zhang Chen also received the order and took his headquarters to garrison Hulao together with Lu Bu's headquarters.

"Report! The rebels are challenging again!" A deputy general came in quickly to report. At this time, there was silence in the lobby.

"Father! This is the eighth letter of challenge! If we don't accept the challenge, we will be sorry for those brothers who died!" When Lu Bu mentioned the old subordinates who died in the battle, he did not show much sadness. He only felt sorry for the Allies.

of hatred.

"Okay! I allow you to order five thousand Xiliang cavalry to fight, but you can't be reluctant to fight! I will help you raid the formation at the gate! Ziyue! You go and prepare for the response!" Dong Zhuo stood up, his fat body revealing a few words.

He was so domineering that he walked out first, but Lu Bu got out before Zhang Chen.

"Yes!" Zhang Chen saw Lu Bu's scene, shook his head, told Lao Jiang to get ready, and followed them to watch the battle.

For the confrontation, after resting and replenishing in the past few days, the Allied forces have restored their energy and morale, and this is the moment when they have high fighting spirit.

On the high platform that had been built long ago, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Pan Feng, Sun Jian, Gongsun Zan and other major princes were watching the battle.

"They finally came out!" Yuan Shao put down the fruit in his hand and stood up. They had been waiting all morning and were already tired. Yuan Yi, Yuan Shao's old boss, Shanyang Prefect, had even fallen asleep.

Looking at the momentum of the war drums beating in Hulao Pass, Cao Cao couldn't help but admire him. He couldn't help but imagine what it would be like if he had hundreds of thousands of elite troops. But what he didn't know was that in the near future, he would have nearly

Millions of troops.
