Chapter 1357 Yang Cong made a move?
"Report!"

A messenger hurriedly ran into the Allied camp.

At this time, in the tent of the Allied Army, many great Han princes gathered to discuss the next matters.

After all, they had just defeated Dong Zhuo's army, and they had to plan carefully for the future.

However, the arrival of the messenger interrupted the discussions of these princes from all sides.

"What's the matter?"

The one who spoke was Yuan Shao Yuan Benchu ​​who was the leader of the big account.

"League leader, this is an urgent message from Kyoto!"

As he said that, the messenger handed the bamboo slips in his hand to Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao took the bamboo slips and opened them for a look. He didn't know if he didn't read them. He was in a good mood at first, but he was so angry that he was thinking about asking for fiefdom in the future.

"The lord is like this, what happened in Kyoto?" one of the princes below asked.

"Dong Zhuo is dead," Yuan Shao said.

"what!"

As soon as Yuan Shao's words came out, the princes in the entire tent were stunned instantly.

Dong Zhuo, who had fought them decisively not long ago, was actually dead now. Although Dong Zhuo was defeated by the allied forces of the eighteen towns, he still had tens of thousands of soldiers in his hands.

"Does it say how Dong Zhuo died?" the princes asked.

"It's Yang Cong." Yuan Shao said.

"Is this Yang Cong, who was given the title of General of the Kingdom by the late Emperor and was in charge of the [-] Royal Imperial Army?"

"Exactly."

"However, Yang Cong has only [-] soldiers. How can he fight against Dong Zhuo's tens of thousands of Xiliang troops? I think this report must be fake, it was released by Dong Zhuo to confuse us."

When the princes heard the words, they thought it was right. After all, Dong Zhuo was insidious and cunning, and he had lost a battle. Maybe he wanted to use such a trick to trick them, and then he wanted to wipe them all out.

"Regardless of whether this matter is true or not, we have to confirm whether Dong Bandit is dead or not." Yuan Shao frowned: "If it is true that Yang Cong killed him, then I'm afraid it will be even more troublesome than Dong Bandit."

"What's the trouble?" A prince said disdainfully: "I also know about this Yang Cong. I have heard about it. He is basically a second-generation ancestor. He has power but does not use it. He is drunk and well-fed all day long and does not care about the affairs of the court. , such an opponent is enough for me alone."

"Yeah, such an opponent is simply unfounded."

"No need for everyone, just the next person is enough, a mere ten thousand, no problem."

Yuan Shao couldn't help shaking his head when he saw how the princes below looked down on Yang Cong.

The princes are princes after all, and those who have never stayed in Luoyang, the capital, have no idea how powerful Yang Cong is.

Yang Cong's strength lies in his mystery. Before he left the capital, he tried to win over Yang Cong, but in the end it was nothing. Every time he said something to his face, Yang Cong shirked it.

He could feel that Yang Cong's strong self-confidence was not only his self-confidence, but even his subordinates were very confident, which was different from his subordinates.

"Brother thinks that what Yuan Shao said at the meeting today and what the princes said, which one can be trusted." Cao Ren said while pouring wine for Cao Cao.

After hearing this, Cao Cao couldn't help but shake his head: "Those princes are all short-sighted and have no idea that there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the capital."

"The dragon and the tiger that elder brother mentioned are the generals who rule the country?" Cao Ren was not stupid, so he naturally understood Cao Cao's words.

"I hope we don't become enemies with him in the future." Cao Cao shook his head: "This opponent is terrifying. He obviously has the strength to kill Dong Zhuo in an instant, but he doesn't make a move, but once he makes a move, he will become famous all over the world. This is a typical example. .”

"Since eldest brother wants to compete for the world, why not try to recruit them. If that doesn't work, you can make friends." Cao Ren said.

Cao Cao took a sip of his wine, glanced at Cao Ren and said, "Pretend I never thought about it. You heard it today. Yuan Shao was rejected. Do you think a lieutenant like your elder brother can become a great general of the country?" Dharma eyes?"

"That's true." Cao Ren smiled wryly: "I feel that since the elder brother is so cautious, he should be cautious."

"When the alliance of the princes of the eighteen towns is dispersed, the world will be in chaos." Cao Cao said.

"But I think Yuan Shao and others want to go to Beijing." Cao Ren said.

"Wishful thinking." Cao Cao immediately scolded: "This group of people are just whimsical. A single Dong Zhuo is enough for them to eat. Now it has become Yang Cong. How can they resist it?"

"But Yang Cong is only [-] people, not to mention the allied forces of the eighteen towns, the eldest brother alone is enough." Cao Ren said.

"Look, let alone the capital." Cao Cao said, "I'm afraid they won't even be able to see the gate of the capital."

Half a month has passed since General Yang Cong killed Dong Zhuo.

The allied forces of the Eighteen-Town Princes, who had originally raised their heads to attack Dong and exterminate the traitors, suddenly turned to the general of the country, Yang Cong.

Because they received news that the current capital of the Han Dynasty is completely controlled by one of them, although not as much as Dong Zhuo.

But no matter what, those princes will not leave it alone.

Back then, Dong Zhuo held 20 soldiers alone, and none of them could stop them, so the disasters in the court have been early for these years.

And what Dong Zhuo did was what the princes wanted to do but dared not do.

Dong Zhuo and the others can't be provoked alone, but Yang Cong can't beat a man with [-] soldiers in his hands?
So even though they are the princes of the eighteen towns, their respective divergences are already very obvious at this time.

They all wanted to defeat Yang Cong first and come to Beijing to be the third person to control the ruling and opposition parties.

But what shocked them was that the Hulao Pass they had just captured after defeating Dong Zhuo fell in an instant.

And it was Yang Cong who sent troops.

There are two roads to enter Luoyang, one is to enter Luoyang's Hangu Pass from the west, and the other is to enter Luoyang's Hulao Pass from the east.

Originally, they broke through the Hulao pass, and the next step was to enter King Jingqin.

But now that the Hulao pass is lost, they won't even be able to see Luoyang.

"Hulao Pass is lost, tell me how it was lost!" Yuan Shao, who was in charge, looked angrily at the kneeling generals guarding the city below.

"My subordinates were patrolling the city wall as usual. But that night, a group of people suddenly appeared outside the city. They couldn't help but jump to the wall. Those people were very powerful. Our soldiers were no match at all. They had no choice but to last resort."

The defeated general knelt down on the ground and didn't even dare to look up.

"As a last resort, you led the remnant army to run away, didn't you?" Yuan Shao's face was surprisingly cold, this person was one of his subordinates, and his occurrence of such a thing was an insult to him.

"Come here, drag this man who speaks nothing, and cut him off!"
