Chapter 677 Suspicion
Li Jue guessed right, Zhang Yu just wanted to treat him as a knife in his hand.

I would agree so painfully that Li Jue also wanted to use him against the aristocratic family.

And Li Jue had to agree.

If you don't promise yourself, you will make less money.

However, if you agree, then you will make a lot of money.

For Li Jue, being able to reoccupy Luoyang is of great significance.

Now he has a very bad relationship with Guo Si, and he may turn his face at any time. At that time, it will be life and death. Even if he wins, it will be a great loss of strength, and the surrounding pack of wolves will tear him to pieces.

Although Li Jue didn't have much brains, he was also one of the generals that Dong Zhuo relied on the most. He could see these things not because of his own vision, but because of his many years of experience, and he was very sensitive to danger.

After agreeing, it would be easy to handle, and Li Jue even sent someone to give Zhang Yu a deposit of 5000 million yuan.

Zhang Yu was naturally not polite, and if he didn't accept the money, he would be punished by God.

Li Jue's appearance was a complete surprise because he had to do things after receiving the money.

Originally, Zhang Yu was going to give up Luoyang to Cao Cao, and it was impossible for him to guard Luoyang.

Luoyang can't be defended, at most a year and a half, that's meaningless, my territory is in Jiangdong and Youzhou.

Zhang Yu called all his subordinates.

"Han Dong, gather all the items we collected and load them into the car. They must be tied tightly," Zhang Yu said.

"Promise, this subordinate will definitely complete the task." Han Dong replied.

"Xia Dong, your task is the heaviest. You must bear the heavy responsibility of attacking and holding back Cao Jun." Zhang Yu said.

"My lord, this subordinate swears to die to complete the task." Xia Dong came out and said with fists clasped.

Zhang Yu nodded and said, "I'll give you [-] soldiers and horses, and you can start to arrange them tonight."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Yu paused, collected his thoughts, and said, "Evil, you have 2 people in your army put on light armor, and you will personally lead them after leaving the city. When the time comes, quickly support Xia Dong."

"promise."

Zhang Yu divided the army into several parts.

Now that Zhang Yu has blocked Luoyang City, Cao Jun doesn't know the number of his troops. If they still calculate according to the previous soldiers and horses, they will definitely suffer a big loss by then.

Several people went to arrange the layout separately, and Zhang Yu was not idle, he planned the map carefully.

The prep work is quick, the day goes by and everything is ready.

And Li Jue's 5 horses also arrived at the ambush place smoothly.

"It's time to act, and the years of burning enthusiasm are about to begin." Zhang Yu said.

Zhang Yu was ready for a new day.

Early in the morning, Zhang Yu opened the gate of Luoyang City, and then swaggered out.

If there is any movement in Luoyang City, the surrounding Cao Jun spies will naturally know it immediately.

The information was quickly reported to Xiahou Dun and the others.

"Zhang Yu has left the city, I don't know if there is any fraud." Xia Houyuan said.

"We have to be careful, we can't move for the time being, let the soldiers check it out." Cao Ang said.

The three were very cautious and did not make any decisions.

The scouts went to inquire about the news again.

"How's the situation?" Xiahou Dun asked hastily as soon as the scouts arrived.

The three of them sat in the big tent of the barracks and looked at the scout.

The scout knelt down and bowed and said: "General, it has been confirmed that Zhang Yu and the others have about [-] troops out of the city, and there are also a large number of carts loaded with heavy items. There are also [-] prisoners of our army. "

"Are those soldiers pretending to be someone?" Cao Ang asked again.

"We have carefully identified it. It is definitely a real sergeant, not an ordinary person pretending to be it." The scout replied.

"Is there any movement in Luoyang City?" Xia Houyuan asked.

"The gates of Luoyang City were wide open, but none of the people came out. Our people dare not enter the city to investigate yet." The scout reported.

After the scouts reported, Xiahou Dun asked them to continue to stare at Zhang Yu and Luoyang City.

All this is too weird, and they don't believe it without a conspiracy.

But they still don't know what Zhang Yu and the others are going to do, so they can only be careful everywhere.

"Uncles, is this Zhang Yu's suspicion, or is there really an ambush in the city?" Cao Ang asked.

"No matter what, let's gather our troops first, so that if something happens, we can deal with it in time," Xia Houyuan said.

The three of them agreed that Xia Houyuan would go to assemble the troops first.

Three hours after Zhang Yu left the city, he led the army and left at a normal speed.

Three hours is enough for Zhang Yu to travel more than 30 miles, mainly because they have a large number of carts in their army and [-] prisoners.

Three hours later, Xia Houyuan and the others rushed to Luoyang with [-] soldiers.

An hour later, they arrived outside Luoyang City.

The city gate was still wide open, and no one came in or out.

"You two uncles, why don't we send a small team in to investigate." Cao Ang suggested.

"Alright, there must be strange things in this city," Xiahou Dun said.

They sent a team of 300 inside.

Suddenly, before this 300-man army approached the city, all the city gates were suddenly closed.

"Sure enough, it's tricky." Xia Houyuan said.

Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan immediately took precautions to prevent Zhang Yu and the others from attacking.

After half an hour.

"Report to the two generals that Zhang Yu's army is still moving forward without any changes." The scout came back and reported.

After waiting outside the city for more than half an hour, this turned out to be the case.

"Continue to investigate," Xia Houyuan said.

After the scout left, the three became even more puzzled.

"Could it be that Zhang Yu wanted to hold us back, and then took the opportunity to leave. He has prisoners in his army, and he brought so much luggage. The speed is not fast at all." Xiahou Dun guessed.

Cao Ang said: "It is entirely possible, and it is also possible that Zhang Yu took the opportunity to set up a suspicious formation to lure us into the bait. We must be careful."

The three finally decided to wait.

At noon, Zhang Yu's entire army stopped to rest, and then buried the pot to cook.

The soldiers began to rest after eating, looking leisurely.

Cao Jun's scouts were all around, and Zhang Yu didn't even send anyone to chase them away.

After resting for an hour, Zhang Yu and the others continued to set off, still at their normal marching speed.

Cao Jun's scouts observed carefully and kept a close eye on Zhang Yu and the others.

In the army, there is no doubt that all the troops in it are soldiers, and even most of them are elite soldiers, and they have not been secretly replaced.

According to the previous intelligence, there is not much difference in the number of Zhang Yu's army.

This is what confuses Xiahou Dun and the others the most.

They were very suspicious that this Luoyang was an empty city, but even so, they did not dare to act rashly.

"My lord, will Cao Jun be fooled?" Dian Wei asked again on the road.

"[-]% chance of being fooled, Luoyang is too important to them."

Luoyang is an important support point, and Cao Jun can't afford to lose, so recapturing Luoyang is their inevitable choice.

In this way, Zhang Yu has confidence in his plan.

The illusion they make will confuse them a little bit.

Even if they are not fooled, Zhang Yu has already sold Luoyang, and it will be handed over to Li Jue at that time.

It's just that the follow-up money is not easy to earn.
