What is going on?
How come there are so many Northern Army soldiers and horses in the palace?
Dong Zhuo felt for a while that he had been trapped and imprisoned.
He pulled Li Ru over and asked in a low voice: "Wen You, what's going on?
Why did the Northern Army soldiers appear in the palace?
Could it be that Liu Cheng had planned to kill our family in the palace?"
Li Ru didn't know what was going on.
He felt that the situation was out of his control.
There were so many more Northern Army troops in the palace.
He didn't even know it.
It seemed that Liu Cheng had not been idle these days.
Come on, he doesn't dare to look down on Liu Cheng as a military commander now.
The atmosphere inside and outside the hall is very tense.
The situation may get out of control at any time and a large-scale battle breaks out.
Only a few people in this hall have actually experienced some big scenes.
Most people are just talkers.
Many timid people have already He was so scared that he shrank into the corner.
At this time, Zhang Xiu slowly moved from outside the main hall into the main hall, approached Dong Zhuo and reported in a low voice: "Sir, all the thousand Xiliang soldiers we arranged under the command of the two palace guards have disappeared.
The general made a rough estimate. , in addition to the more than 3,000 Yulin Army and Huben Army, there are 3,000 more Northern troops outside, including 1,000 infantry and 2,000 archers."
Zhang Xiu's voice was not loud, but everyone in the hall was silent and almost held their breath.
His voice was particularly clear and many people heard it.
Dong Zhuo frowned.
He felt relieved and immediately shouted: "I'm afraid we have 5,000 elite soldiers.
Even if he has 3,000 more soldiers, he still needs to guard the palace gates and walls.
He can use There are less than 5,000 troops to deal with us, but we still have the advantage.
Send a signal outside the city and order Duan Xuan to lead 5,000 troops into the city to attack the palace gate."
As soon as Dong Zhuo finished speaking, and before Zhang Xiu had time to agree, he heard the long sound of horns and drums coming from the west direction of the city.
The expressions of Dong Zhuo and others changed.
What was going on?
How could there be a sudden sound of horns outside the city?
The sound of beating drums is a signal to start war.
Liu Cheng was shocked when he heard Dong Zhuo say that he had brought five thousand troops this time.
Wasn't it only three thousand?
He couldn't help but look at Wang Shuang who was confronting Zhang Xiu.
Wang Shuang felt Liu Cheng's questioning eyes, and Wang Shuang gently He nodded and confirmed Dong Zhuo's words, seeing that Dong Zhuo had indeed brought five thousand elite soldiers instead of the originally planned three thousand.
In fact, yesterday when Liu Cheng was deciding how many Northern troops to send into the palace, he also asked for more.
After all, the more troops and horses, the greater the chance of victory.
However, the area of Nangong is not very large.
There are thousands of eunuchs and maids in the palace itself. , the more soldiers and horses are mobilized, the harder it will be to hide it.
Once the news is leaked in advance and Dong Zhuo detects it, everything done before will be in vain, and Dong Zhuo will use this news to counterattack.
When Liu Cheng heard the sound of horns and drums outside the city, he knew that the Changshui Xiaowei Division and Shesheng Xiaowei Division led by Du Kai and Yang Ru had arrived.
He immediately said to Dong Zhuo: "Dong Zhuo, don't try to mobilize troops from outside the city.
Come in, your Xiliang soldiers and Bingzhou troops in the military camp outside the city have all been blocked by our Northern Army.
Your Xiyuan Army in the city has been restrained by our Northern Army.
Let me see where else you can mobilize.

"soldier" Dong Zhuo shouted: "Impossible.
Your Northern Army is all trapped in the city.
How can you get out of the city?
Even if you can get out of the city, your Northern Army only has a total of 20,000 people.
You brought 3,000 people here and divided them up to 8 people outside the city."
Thousands, there are only more than 8,000 people left in the city, you just want to use such a few people to contain the Xiyuan Army inside the city and the Xiliang Army outside the city."
Liu Cheng sneered: "Who said I let the Northern troops in the city divide?"
"If there is no division of troops, where did the Northern army outside your city come from?
Don't try to deceive our family, our family is not that easy to deceive," Dong Zhuo shouted.
Li Ru seemed to have thought of something, his face changed drastically, and he looked at Liu Cheng and asked: "Could it be the Changshui Xiaoweibu and Shesheng Xiaoweibu?"
"Hahaha" Liu Cheng laughed for a while and said: "That's right, Dong Zhuo, only Li Wenyou among your men is smarter.
The others, including you, are idiots.
If you want to scheme against me, I will let you steal the chicken."
Look at these ministers again, look at the expressions on their faces, Although they are afraid of you on the surface, they don’t know how much they despise you in their hearts.
How many of those ministers and officials who have taken refuge in you are sincerely serving you and you still want to abolish the establishment?
I, Liu Cheng, dare to guarantee with my head that if they have the chance to kill them, You, I will definitely tear you into pieces to satisfy the hatred in my heart."
Dong Zhuo glanced at the ministers and officials in the hall with extremely ferocious eyes.
Everyone caught by his gaze was trembling and frightened.
Even Yuan Wei, the Grand Tutor, had to shrink his head at this time. .
Li Ru slowly walked to Dong Zhuo and whispered in his ear: "My lord, given the current situation, it is no longer possible to use military force to force Liu Cheng to compromise and agree to abolish Li.
We can only kill him.
The only way is to kill him."
Only by killing him can we break the situation.
If you really can't kill him, you can only take a step back, temporarily give up your plan to abolish Li, and try to keep the power of regent."
Dong Zhuo weighed it in his mind and shouted: "Feng Xian, kill Liu Cheng for our family!"
Lu Bu's expression was stern, but then his fighting spirit soared.
He stared at Liu Cheng with burning eyes and held Fang Tian's painted halberd in both hands.
At this time, a voice came from the ministers: "Lu Bu, since you can serve Dong Zhuo, why can't you serve General Liu?
What Dong Zhuo can give you, I believe General Liu can also give you, or even more.
A mere cavalry captain can give you I can make you sacrifice your life, General Liu, why don't you ask your majesty to confer Lu Bu as Zhonglang General?"
Liu Cheng heard Xun Yu's voice and immediately said: "That's right, Lu Bu, as long as you serve me as general, your official position, title, money, everything is easy to negotiate, how about" The civil and military officials of the court were trying to win over Lu Bu like this.
Dong Zhuo was so angry that he blushed and became thick-necked.
No matter how thick-skinned or shameless Lu Bu was, he knew he couldn't waver at this time, otherwise he would definitely become a laughing stock in the world.
He was furious and looked at the courtiers.
He shouted: "Who, who is talking?"
Xun Yu stood up and cupped his hands and said: "I am here to guard the palace, Xun Yu."
"I, Lu Bu, am a manly man.
I joined Dong Gong and believed that my adoptive father believed that only he could achieve great things."
Lu Bu said this righteously.
Repeating what he really thought in his heart, he pointed at Xun Yu and shouted: "Official position , Titles and money are indeed good, but it also depends on who rewards them.
Not everyone’s official title, title, and money will be accepted by me, Lu Fengxian."
Dong Zhuo immediately shouted: "Fengxian my son, that's right.
Don't worry, as long as you kill Liu Cheng, your adoptive father will immediately confer you a title of marquis and general."
Although Xun Yu's words did not win Lu Bu over, they successfully created a gap and suspicion between Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu.
This was equivalent to planting a thorn in Dong Zhuo's heart.

Once the time comes, this thorn will definitely break out.
"General Liu, Bu has always wanted to spar with you, but you always shirk it.
Today you can't shirk it no matter what.
When it comes to fighting, Bu will never hold back, and Bu also hopes you won't hold back."
After Lu Bu said this, he immediately rushed towards Liu Cheng with a vigorous step, and stabbed Fang Tian's painted halberd at Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng quickly pulled out the Greedy Wolf Sword and blocked Fang Tian's painted halberd.
There was a "dang" sound, and both of their arms felt it at the same time.
Yi Ma knew that he had met his opponent in chess.
"Ah!"
When the ministers saw that the two men were really fighting in the hall, their faces turned pale with fright.
They ran towards the walls on both sides and crawled to clear the space in the middle of the hall, lest they fight.
It affects the fish in the pond.
Liu Bian had long been paralyzed with fear.
When he saw Liu Cheng and Lu Bu fighting in the main hall, he was so frightened that he hid behind the screen.
The eunuch Zhao Chun shouted: "Guard you, protect you!"
Several soldiers of the Yulin Army who were on guard duty in the hall immediately rushed to Danbi with swords in hand to guard him in front of and behind the screen.
Wang Shuang suddenly drew out his saber and retreated under Danbi, looking intently on guard.
With a "dang" sound, Lu Bu and Liu Cheng separated temporarily, and each took two steps back.
The hands of the two holding weapons couldn't help trembling.
This was a real competition of strength.
The two of them just stabbed each other in just a few breaths.
After more than ten moves in a row, no one took advantage.
To some extent, Liu Cheng is still slightly inferior to Lu Bu.
In fact, long weapons are not an ideal force in infantry battles.
They are not easy to deploy.
Especially heavy weapons such as Fang Tian Hua Ji, which must be used on horseback.
Only a certain height can be used to perform the complete moves.
Standing on the ground, only a tall figure like Lu Bu can barely perform them.
Liu Cheng also knew the difference between infantry and horse battles, so he did not bring the dragon teeth to break the army today.
He only brought the Greedy Wolf Sword with him.
This is also a precious sword that can truly cut iron like mud and gold.
Broken jade.
"Kill!"
Liu Cheng shouted and stepped forward, slashing at Lu Bu with his sword.
Lu Bu swept away Liu Cheng's saber with his Fang Tian Hua halberd.
Liu Cheng turned around and approached Lu Bu.
He slashed the saber between Lu Bu's waist and abdomen.
Lu Bu had no choice but to retreat, but Liu Cheng followed closely like a top.
Seeing that he was about to be forced to the entrance of the hall, Lu Bu had to collect Fang Tian's painted halberd and use the long pole to block his waist.
With a "ding" sound, the Greedy Wolf knife cut on the long pole of Fang Tian's painted halberd, but Liu Cheng did not stop.
Attacking, he slashed at Lu Bu's neck with his knife again.
Lu Bu was beaten in close combat by Liu Cheng.
Fang Tian's halberd was too long and he could only parry but not fight back, so he was beaten into a bit of embarrassment.
Lu Bu had no choice but to abandon Fang Tian's painted halberd, and immediately drew the sword from his waist to deal with Liu Cheng.
The two sides fought more fiercely in the hall.

Lu Bu, who used the sword, began to regain the situation.
With one hundred and fifty moves, Liu Cheng Cheng began to feel a little difficult.
He felt that Lu Bu's combat experience was solid.
In Too Rich, this guy's body seems to have the instinct to dodge any attack.
No matter what moves he uses, Lu Bu seems to be able to predict them in advance and dodge them in time.
However, he cannot completely dodge Lu Bu's attacks on him, and many of them cannot be avoided.
Blocking is required to resolve the danger.
Liu Cheng's mind flashed like lightning.
He immediately gave up the subtlety of his moves in fighting Lu Bu and directly used the simplest moves.
He struck at him with a thunderous force.
Lu Bu couldn't dodge.
Even if he evaded Liu Cheng, he would change his moves midway.
He You can only block with your sword.
Liu Cheng twisted his wrist and the blade hit the opponent's sword.
Lu Bu's sword was cut into two pieces.
Lu Bu was shocked and jumped away quickly.
How could Liu Cheng allow him to get out of his attack range?
After being chased, Lu Bu felt extremely embarrassed for a while.
When Dong Zhuo saw something bad, he immediately pulled out the sword from his waist and threw it to Lu Bu, shouting: "My son, take the sword first":
