Thinking of this, Yuan Shao couldn't help but his face changed wildly, and he turned to look at Cao Cao with a gloomy face. The two looked at each other, and they both saw each other's worry.

Yuan Shao stood up abruptly, and spoke eagerly.

"Quick! The whole army..."

"Report...!"

Before Yuan Shao could finish speaking, a messenger came in in a panic, knelt down on one knee in front of Yuan Shao, and reported anxiously.

"To the lord, Yuan Yi, the prefect of Shanyang, was beheaded by Hua Xiong before the Hulao Pass, and the entire army he belonged to was wiped out. Only a few thousand people escaped back!"

Hearing this, Yuan Shao stared at the ordering soldiers in a daze, then slumped on his seat with a dull expression on his face.

At this time, Cao Cao, with a nervous face, hurriedly asked the ordering soldier: "How about my favorite general Xu Huang?!"

Hearing this, the messenger soldier clasped his fists at Cao Cao and said, "General Xu Huang has indeed escaped, but..."

When Cao Cao heard the words, he stood up abruptly and shouted at the ordering soldiers.

"But what?! Say it quickly!"

The soldier who sent the order was startled by Cao Cao, and his head broke out in cold sweat, but he didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and answered truthfully.

"General Xu Huang is covered in blood, limp on the horse, seriously injured..."

After hearing this, Cao Cao was silent for a long time, then sighed, with a look of sadness on his face.

Seeing this, the rest of the princes hurried forward to comfort Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.

"Yuan Yi! It's really harmful! Why didn't you order a retreat when you saw the opportunity?! You still want to fight that Hua Xiong?! Pity me, General Xu Huang, for being implicated like this!"

Yuan Shao had calmed down the sorrow in his heart at this time, and he was also full of guilt when he heard Cao Cao's words, just as he wanted to comfort him, he saw Cao Cao suddenly pushed away the crowd and ran out of the big tent in a hurry.

Seeing this, Yuan Shao could only sigh helplessly, and secretly hated Yuan Yi in his heart, he had no ability, what kind of hero should he be? !

This is all right, not only did he kill himself, but also implicated Cao Cao and himself!

Cao Cao ran back to his barracks anxiously, came to Xu Huang's tent, opened the big tent and walked in.

But he saw Xu Huang sitting on the desk with Guo Jia, drinking tea leisurely.

Seeing this, Cao Cao was not surprised at all. He walked straight to the desk and sat next to Guo Jia.

Seeing Xu Huang covered in blood, Cao Cao asked with a smile, "Gong Ming, are you injured? Then Yuan Yi was really beheaded by Hua Xiong's array?"

Xu Huang nodded with a smile when he heard this, and replied: "Yuan Yi was cut in half by Hua Xiong, that Hua Xiong did have some courage, even if General Xiahou confronted him, he would not be able to take him down in less than ten or twenty rounds! However, he thought Huo Huang, not qualified enough!"

Cao Cao nodded when he heard the words, and then told Xu Huang: "Since that's the case, Gong Ming should stay in the big tent!"

Xu Huang nodded when he heard the words, stood up, walked straight to the bed, and lay down on the bed without taking off the blood-stained armor.

Seeing this, Cao Cao pulled Guo Jia up, turned around and walked out of Xu Huang's big tent.

The moment Cao Cao walked out of the big tent, Cao Cao immediately changed his face, and saw him with a sad face, leading Guo Jia to the commander's tent of the coalition of princes.

Cao Cao led Guo Jia to the commander's tent and sat in his seat. At this time, the coalition commander's tent was full of gloomy clouds. Bao Zhong and Yuan Yi died in battle one after another, causing the army to lose a lot of troops.

And the morale of the soldiers in the army is also low. They really need a victory to boost their morale!

I wanted to lead the whole army to break out of Hulao Pass, to force Dong Zhuo to lead a large force to come to Hulao for support, and to have a decisive battle, but was interrupted by Sun Jian.

Sun Jian begged Yuan Shao with a firm face, "Leader, Jian, is willing to lead the army to attack Hulao Pass, cut off Hua Xiong's head, and win a battle for our allies!"

This Sun Jian is indeed a fierce general, but he supports Liu Yu. If he wins, it is due to Yuan Shao's contribution;

Yuan Shao lowered his head and thought for a moment, looked at Sun Jian with a firm face, and nodded in agreement.

Therefore, Yuan Shao decided to send [-] troops to attack Hulao Pass again. The leading general this time was Sun Jian, known as the Jiangdong tiger.

Sun Jian led [-] troops from his headquarters, and [-] troops supported by the coalition forces, making a total of [-] troops, and charged towards Hulao Pass in a murderous manner.

Sun Jian led the army to rush all the way, and after a short rest at a distance of [-] miles from Hulao Pass.

Then he led the army again and came to Hulao Pass to call for battle!General Hu Zhen under Dong Zhuo's command, as Hua Xiong's lieutenant general, was envious of his own general's showing off.

So Hu Zhen privately led [-] cavalry, fought against Sun Jian, and fought with Sun Jian in front of the formation, but was beheaded by Sun Jian, and the Xiliang army was also killed by Sun Jian, leaving behind tens of thousands of corpses.

Hua Xiong learns that Hu Zhen led the troops to fight without permission, not only was he killed, but also caused heavy losses to the army. Hua Xiong was furious and at the same time ordered to hang up the card of avoiding the battle and not to go out of the city to meet the enemy!

If Hua Xiong doesn't fight, no matter how strong Sun Jian is, there's nothing he can do to let them attack the city?He, Sun Jian, was really unable to attack. Fortunately, he won a game first, and the morale of the army must have recovered.

So the two were in a stalemate like this, and the food Sun Jian's army brought was only enough for two days, so they couldn't last too long.

Sun Jian sent people to find Yuan Shu, who was in charge of grain and grass, and asked for more grain and grass.

Although Yuan Shu said yes, but because of jealousy in his heart, he didn't send more food and grass to Sun Jian.

Sun Jian's army, who had been waiting for food for a long time, did not wait for the food, which made Sun Jian's army completely chaotic.

It was difficult to fight a war, but now you are still hungry, how can you fight a war? !

Hua Xiong, who was in Hulao Pass, also received the news from the spies, which made Hua Xiong very excited. Sun Jian and Yuan Shu were at odds, and Yuan Shu cut off Sun Jian's food.

Hua Xiong was so happy that he wanted to hold Yuan Shu in his arms and kiss him. How could Hua Xiong miss such a god-given opportunity?

Originally, Sun Jian led the infantry, not to mention the hungry infantry with their chests stuck to their backs!How can I compete against my Xiliang iron cavalry? !

So Hua Xiong took advantage of the dark night to attack Sun Jian's camp, and defeated the [-] hungry infantry.

But Sun Jian's general Zu Mao, in order to cover Sun Jian's escape, faced Hua Xiong alone, but was beheaded by Hua Xiong.

In the end, the soldiers and horses led by Sun Jian suffered heavy casualties and were scattered and fled by the Xiliang army. Even Sun Jian almost died.

Chapter 254 The Prince Is Here

Sun Jian fled in the direction of the coalition forces, gathering scattered soldiers and horses along the way. In the end, he only gathered more than 3 troops, most of which belonged to other princes.

When Sun Jian, who was hungry and tired, fled back to the coalition meeting place in embarrassment, the princes were discussing fiercely what would happen after the invasion of Luoyang.

Seeing Sun Jian in such a state of distress, everyone couldn't help but thump in their hearts. It seemed that Sun Jian had also lost to Hua Xiong!

After Sun Jian heard everyone's discussion, he was furious, overturned the table, pointed at Yuan Shu and cursed.

"Yuan Gonggong! You are not a son of man! You actually cut off my food and grass, causing our army to be defeated. My general Zu Mao was killed by Hua Xiong's hands! Today I will kill you! To avenge the glory! Yuan Gonglu, take Fate!!"

After Sun Jian finished speaking, he drew out his long knife, stared at his blood-red eyes, and ran towards Yuan Shu. It seemed that Sun Jian would really end Yuan Shu with one blow.

When all the princes heard what Sun Jian said, they all turned pale with shock, and all of them looked at Yuan Shu with unkind eyes.

Just when the long knife was about to hit Yuan Shu's head, a strange weapon suddenly appeared in front of the long knife, blocking the fatal blow for Yuan Shu who was paralyzed from fright.

"when!"

A loud noise echoed in the venue, making the ears of all the princes buzzing.

Seeing that his blow hadn't worked, Sun Jian raised his head angrily, looked at the person beside Yuan Shu, and said angrily.

"Who are you?! How dare you stop me?!

The man shook Sun Jian's long knife away with a strong shock, then took a step forward, pointed the weapon in his hand at Sun Jian, and said coldly.

"A certain Ji Ling! If you want to hurt my lord, first ask the crescent blade in a certain hand whether you agree!"

Sun Jian was furious when he heard the words. He raised his long knife and was about to fight Ji Ling, but Yuan Shao stopped him.

Yuan Shao stepped forward to grab Sun Jian, then turned his head and glared at Yuan Shu angrily, "Gaolu, what's going on?! Why don't you tell me the truth!"

Yuan Shu, who was already petrified, was woken up by Yuan Shao's yelling, and his body was shocked. He quickly stood behind Ji Ling and explained to Sun Jian.

"Wentai, don't get angry, listen to me first!"

Seeing Sun Jian put away the long knife, Yuan Shu breathed a sigh of relief, and then explained.

"Wentai wronged Shu. I heard that there was a shortage of food in Wentai's army, so I ordered the small school under my command to distribute food and grass to Wentai. As for why the food and grass were not delivered, I, Yuan Gonglu, don't know!"

After Yuan Shu finished speaking, he ordered Ji Ling to call the small school to the meeting place. Ji Ling led the order and left. After a while, Ji Ling returned to the meeting place again, and said to Yuan Shu.

"My lord, that little schoolboy has committed suicide in fear of crime!"

Yuan Shu was overjoyed when he heard the words, and secretly praised Ji Ling for his reliability, but now that there is no evidence to prove it, even if Sun Jian knew that he had cheated him once, without evidence, what could he do with himself?

Furthermore, now that most of Sun Jian's soldiers and horses have been lost, how can he fight against himself? !

Seeing that the matter had come to this point, Cao Cao came out again to try to smooth things over, and only then calmed down Sun Jian's anger.

They all knew in their hearts that the small school must be the ghost that Yuan Shu found for him!

But what does it matter to them?Although his soldiers and horses were also killed or injured, they were not injured yet. Sun Jian was different.

They still wished that Sun Jian's entire army would be wiped out. It would be better if even Sun Jian died at the hands of Hua Xiong, so that when Luoyang was captured, there would be one less person to share the credit.

After helping Sun Jian to sit on the seat, Cao Cao also turned around and came to his seat, and sat down slowly.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the venue reached freezing point, and it was no longer as enthusiastic as it was before Sun Jian came.

At this moment, a messenger soldier came to the meeting place nervously and reported to Yuan Shaohui.

"Report!...Leader! A group of cavalry came from the east, with a number of about 3! The banner read "Han, King Liu of Zhenbei!" "

When Cao Cao heard the soldier's report, the joy in his eyes flashed away, and he soon regained his composure, but looking at his clenched fists, he knew that Cao Cao's heart must be restless at this time.

As for Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, after hearing the report, they felt bitterness in their mouths and a slight chill in their hearts.

And everyone was shocked when they heard the words, the one from Bingzhou finally came...

No matter how much he disliked Liu Yu in his heart, at least he had to show his face. Yuan Shao stood up with a smile and said to everyone.

"The king of Zhenbei is here, I should go to greet him in person!"

After Yuan Shao finished speaking, he took the lead to leave the meeting place, and all the princes also got up with different expressions and went to meet Liu Yu.

Gongsun Zan and Kong Rong couldn't hide the excitement in their eyes when they heard Liu Yu's arrival.

Even Sun Jian, who had just lost his beloved general and damaged his troops, dragged his exhausted body and stood up to greet him.

This time when Liu Yu came to the alliance, he did not march in a hurry. He walked slowly all the way, and finally arrived at the place where the princes gathered today.

About [-] meters away from the camp of the allied forces of the princes, Liu Yu waved his hand to stop the army, and ordered Zhao Yun to take the army to camp.

And Liu Yu led Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Dian Wei, and Xun You to the princes who were waiting for him at the gate of the camp.

When Liu Yu came to him, all the princes, led by Yuan Shao, saluted Liu Yu.

"I've seen Prince Zhenbei!"

Liu Yu waved to everyone, signaling that they don't need to be polite, and then accompanied by everyone, he walked slowly to the alliance venue.

Yuan Shao originally wanted to invite Liu Yu to sit on the first seat and command the princes, but Liu Yu refused. He found a seat at random and sat down.

When Yuan Shao saw this, although he wished Liu Yu was like this in his heart, he couldn't show it on his face.

He raised his foot to the first seat, nodded to everyone, and then sat down slowly.

After everyone sat down, no one spoke first. Even Yuan Shu, who usually likes to argue, was very quiet at this time.

Seeing this, Liu Yu smiled slightly, then looked up and looked around for a week, and found Liu Bei standing behind Gongsun Zan opposite.

Liu Yu couldn't help laughing even more happily, watching Liu Bei speak slowly.

"Why is Xuande standing? Didn't Xuande tell Benchu ​​that you are the great-great-grandson of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty and the clan of the Han Dynasty after King Jing of Zhongshan?!"

When Liu Bei heard this, his face turned reddish, a little embarrassed, he cupped his hands at Liu Yu, and didn't reply.

Yuan Shao was taken aback when he heard what Liu Yu said, and then he realized that he quickly ordered the soldiers to give Liu Bei a seat.

After Liu Bei sat down, he first cupped his hands to Liu Yu, thanked him, and then thanked Yuan Shao, then Liu Bei sat quietly.

Liu Yu withdrew his gaze, looked around at the princes, and then spoke slowly.

"The king has been delayed for a long time because of something on the road. I don't know if there is any progress in seeking Dong in the past few days?"

Everyone was a little embarrassed when they heard this, but when Liu Yu asked, they couldn't help but answer.

In the end, Yuan Shao carried everything, killed Yuan Yi, Bao Zhong was killed, and Sun Jian was defeated due to Yuan Shu's fault, and he informed Liu Yu one by one.

Chapter 255 Hua Xiong Cheng Wei

After Liu Yu heard this, he couldn't help being a little surprised. Bao Zhong was killed and Sun Jian was defeated. This is fine, but what the hell is Yuan Yi? !How is he still dead?

However, Liu Yu hadn't heard much about Yuan Yi, and he died as soon as he died.

"Oh! It's okay to lose the first time, but Sun Wentai's defeat is really a loss."

Liu Yu said something mockingly, then looked at Sun Jian, and joked: "Wentai, Yuan Gonggong is so despicable, how many teeth are you knocking out that guy?!"
