Since the Allied forces marched out, Sun Jian, as the vanguard, led his troops and showed due bravery.
It was unstoppable along the way, passing through the pass and approaching Sishui Pass.
For several days in a row, news of a great victory spread back to the Allied forces from the front.
After hearing the battle report, the general guarding Sishui Pass was afraid of Sun Jian's bravery and was afraid that he would not be able to defend Sishui Pass, so he sent a messenger and rushed to Luoyang to report and send reinforcements.
However, it was said that after Dong Zhuo deposed the new emperor and established King Chen Liu as Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, he took charge of the power, but he pursued pleasure every day and did not pay attention to the affairs of the court, leaving everything to Li Ru.
The prosperous Luoyang was brilliant.
The imperial palace, plus the court being his one-man hall, had already worn away the ambition in his heart, and he was reduced to a person who could only enjoy himself, and his waistline had grown a few times.
Therefore, the urgent document sent from Sishui Pass just fell into Li Ru's hands.
Li Ru also felt a lot haggard and worried during this period.
However, after receiving the urgent document from Sishui Pass, he went to Dong Zhuo as soon as possible.
After all, this was no small matter.
Dong Zhuo was also horrified when he heard the news that the allies were about to attack Sishui Pass.
He had not paid much attention to the news about the alliance between the princes before.
He had hundreds of thousands of troops under his command, so how could he be afraid of these alliances?
The miscellaneous army did not expect it to be so fierce.
A vanguard had already attacked Sishui Pass unstoppably.
He quickly dressed up and summoned his subordinates and generals to discuss countermeasures.
When everyone gathered, Dong Zhuo did not hide anything and talked about the matter.
"My lord, don't worry about the princes outside the pass.
I regard them as nothing more than grass and grass.
I am willing to lead an army of tigers and wolves directly to Sishui Pass and kill them all outside Sishui Pass to shock the tiger's power."
A man stood up and said domineeringly .
Everyone looked and saw that it was Lu Bu, Lu Fengxian, the adopted son of Ding Yuan, who was currently serving as Marquis of Wen.
No wonder he spoke so grandly.
Although Lu Bu wanted Dong Zhuo and Li Su to die, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Bingzhou were still in Luoyang, and the alliance of princes came to attack Dong Zhuo.
No matter what the reason was, he was now Dong Zhuo's subordinate, and he needed to fight for Bingzhou.
For the sake of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.
Hearing this, Dong Zhuo was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Haha, I have my ancestors, so why should I be afraid of people outside the customs?"
Li Ru on the side disagreed.
He always felt that Lu Bu did not sincerely submit to Dong Zhuo, but Lu Bu's bravery was exactly what he needed, so he did not refute Dong Zhuo's reuse of Lu Bu, but he was still wary.
At this time, another man stood up from the military general's side and said loudly: "You don't need to bother Marquis Wen to go to the army with a knife to cut a chicken.
It's easy for me to behead the princes.
I only need an elite army to do it."
Put down the rebellion of the princes" Everyone looked and saw that the person who spoke was nine feet long, with the body of a tiger and the waist of a wolf, and the head of a leopard and the arms of an ape.
He was a Kansai native named Hua Xiong.
He was also a general who often stood behind Dong Zhuo as a bodyguard.
Lu Bu also looked at Hua Xiong, but didn't say much.
Hua Xiong knew it and turned to look at Dong Zhuo, waiting for Dong Zhuo's decision.
Hua Xiong also noticed that Lu Bu glanced at him, and he was still a little afraid of Lu Bu in his heart.
You must know that Dong Zhuo controls the 200,000 Xiliang army, and the most elite Xiliang cavalry is under his command.
Liangzhou and Bingzhou are connected, and they are both places that are often invaded by the Xiongnu.
I have always heard about the power of the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, and Lu Bu is also the commander of the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry.
With Lu Bu joining in, Dong Zhuo's attention is also somewhat Unconvinced, he wanted to give Lu Bu a blow.
But who knows, he doesn't even want to think about the ending, and even thinking about it now makes him a little scared.
Even the generals who had followed Dong Zhuo for a long time, such as Li Jue, Guo Si, etc., did not speak, but silently waited for who Dong Zhuo would send.

You must know that when Lu Bu did not come, Hua Xiong was Dong Zhuo's number one general.
Otherwise, he would not always stand behind Dong Zhuo as a bodyguard.
After Lu Bu came, they also knew that Hua Xiong wanted to give Lu Bu a show of strength, and even went to see it.
After that, they had no objection to Lu Bu becoming Wen Hou and being used more important than them.
Dong Zhuo looked at Lu Bu and then at Hua Xiong.
He felt it was a bit difficult to make a decision, so he said, "Wen You, what do you think?"
Li Ru was stunned for a moment.
He didn't expect Dong Zhuo to ask him.
He rolled his eyes and said, "I think what General Hua said is right.
The alliance of princes is a temporary combination.
There must be different people's hearts among them.
Everyone wants to We will conserve our strength and not go all out, so General Hua can go out and Marquis Wen can sit in the imperial capital to prevent young people from taking the opportunity to cause chaos."
That being said, only he himself knew what to fight for, and when he learned about the alliance of princes, he did not stop it at all and allowed it to develop.
He also wanted to take this opportunity to arouse Dong Zhuo's fighting spirit under the pressure of the princes.
As Dong Zhuo's son-in-law and most trusted adviser, he also knew that Dong Zhuo had changed and was no longer the Dong Zhuo he knew in Xiliang.
So he was secretly happy that the princes united at this time, hoping that the bigger the trouble would be, the better, so that Dong Zhuo could reflect.
"In this case, Hua Xiong will go on the expedition this time and stay in the imperial capital first."
Although Dong Zhuo has changed a lot, he still trusts Li Ru, otherwise he would not leave everything to Li Ru to handle.
"promise" Lu Bu didn't pay too much attention, and returned to the ranks of generals, standing at the top.
Hua Xiong also bowed and retreated, standing behind Lu Bu.
After discussing the matter, Dong Zhuo felt that he could sit back and relax again, so he dismissed everyone and waited for the good news.
Hua Xiong was also awarded the title of General of Valiant Cavalry.
He led an army of 50,000 horsemen and infantry.
Together with Li Su, Hu Zhen, and Zhao Qin, he set out on the same day and led the army to leave the camp outside Luoyang City and rush to Sishui Pass to meet the enemy.
However, when Dong Zhuo dispatched troops and generals to rush to Sishui Pass.
In the alliance of princes, Sun Jian's continuous meritorious service showed an unstoppable situation, which also aroused the jealousy of some people.
After all, it was Sun Jian who made meritorious service all the way.
If Sun Jian was allowed to directly attack Luoyang and kill Dong Zhuo, then there would be no If they have something to do, even if they have merit, it is only a small merit.
Just like Bao Xin, the Prime Minister of Jibei among the princes, he was very jealous of Sun Jian and secretly cursed in his heart.
If he knew that Dong Zhuo's troops were so vulnerable, he would have fought for the vanguard before.
However, I don’t regret taking the medicine, but it can still be remedied.
He secretly asked his younger brother Bao Zhong to lead an infantry of 3,000 horses to take a small road and rush to Sishui Pass.
It would be a great achievement to capture Sishui Pass before Sun Jian led his troops to arrive
