Three Kingdoms: The rebellious son of the Cao family married the queen at the beginning
Chapter 460 Dong Zhuo Requests Reinforcement
Chang'an City, in Dong Zhuo's palace.
Five people, Li Ru, Duan Yao, Li Su, Li Jue, and Fan Chou, stood dejectedly above the main hall.
Cao Shuo's army has surrounded Chang'an, and everyone has nothing to do.
It might still be possible to break out of the siege now, but once Cao Shuo brought the army in, it would be difficult for them to break out of the siege.
Dong Zhuo asked gloomyly, "Li Ru, how much food do we have left?"
Li Ru thought for a while and said, "The food in the city is enough for the army and the people in the city for three years."
Their food is very sufficient, otherwise, they would not have lent food to Liu Bei before.
Li Ru changed the subject and said, "The fine salt we store is only enough for two months. If we distribute it to the people in the city, I'm afraid it will be used up in less than half a month."
Dong Zhuo said angrily: "These belong to our soldiers, and they must not be distributed to the people in the city. These people are nothing but fools. Whoever is in Luoyang City should listen to whoever they are."
Everyone looked embarrassed. If the people complained or went to extremes, Chang'an City would be difficult to defend.
Duan Yan suggested: "Your Majesty, we have to block the city gates. They have a siege weapon, which is very domineering. It is close to a two-foot thick city gate and can directly shoot through it."
Li Su agreed: "Yes, I heard that they are called siege crossbows, and the arrows are thicker than the mouth of a bowl, and can directly shoot through our city gates."
The others wiped off a cold sweat when they heard this. Is this called a crossbow arrow?
Who can bear this, Dong Zhuo hurriedly said: "Li Su, Fan Chou, Duan Yao, Li Jue, each of you four is in charge of a city gate."
"promise!"
Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru and said, "Try to get some salt. There will be no problems in a short period of time. After a long time, the human body will become weak. We must not let Cao Shuo's plan succeed."
The Longteng Chamber of Commerce has cut off most of the goods in Chang'an City. There is a lack of salt, wine, and iron. After a long time, there will be chaos in Chang'an.
Li Ru suggested, "Your Majesty, do we need to recall General Yan Xing?"
Dong Zhuo looked at Li Jue and said, "Which general can break out now and ask Yan Xing for help?"
Li Jue was confused, what did Dong Zhuo mean by looking at him?Are you going to let him break out?
Gao Shun, Yan Liang, and Liu Ye guarded the north gate, Cao Shuo personally guarded the east gate, Dian Wei, Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, and Guo Jia guarded the west gate, and Huang Zhong and Xun You guarded the south gate.
Based on his ability, it may be extremely difficult to break through.
He said with a look of embarrassment: "Your Majesty, I am not their opponent. If we forcefully break through at this time, there is no guarantee that we will be able to get out."
Dong Zhuo waved his hand and said: "You misunderstood me, I didn't ask you to go in person, I heard that your nephew Hu Feng is quite brave, and I let him command the five thousand Feixiong army under my command, with the Feixiong army escorting him, he must able to kill."
Li Jue said with a mournful face: "Your Majesty, my nephew has already died in the hands of Gao Shun, I'm afraid I can't share your majesty's worries."
"What?" Dong Zhuo was surprised. He was going to make Hu a general who conquered the East, but he was already dead.
"Since that's the case, then Zhiran, lead the Feixiong army to fight out!"
"This……"
In desperation, Li Jue had no choice but to agree, but the five thousand Flying Bear Army was definitely not the opponent of Cao Shuo's Xuanjia Army.
"Your Majesty, with only five thousand flying bears, we may not be able to break out of the encirclement. I need the assistance of a few generals."
Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru, Li Ru said: "Several generals will fight out from the three gates to assist General Li Jue. After General Li breaks out of the siege, you will retreat to the city, and then block the three gates, leaving the west gate behind. Send heavy troops to guard and set up more obstacles."
"promise!"
Li Su, Fan Chou, and Duan Yan readily agreed, as long as they are not allowed to break out, everything is easy to talk about.
In the middle of the night, Li Jue led five thousand flying bear troops and ten thousand Xiliang iron cavalry, and waited early behind the west gate. As soon as the other three city gates fought and all attention was drawn, he would lead the army to break out of the encirclement. .
"Report, three cavalrymen suddenly appeared from the east gate, north gate, and south gate of Chang'an City, and harassed our army camp."
Cao Shuo frowned, why didn't Ximen come out with soldiers?
Xi Zhicai said: "Your Majesty, it seems that the other party wants to ask for reinforcements, and deliberately uses the three gates to attract our attention."
Such a simple strategy, anyone with a bit of common sense can see through their purpose.
Cao Shuo narrowed his eyes and thought for a while, Yan Xing, the prefect of Youfufeng, still has [-] troops outside, and there are several generals of Han Sui under Yan Xing's account.
Yan Xing's counselor, Cheng Gongying, has been paying attention to him for a long time. Although this person's resourcefulness is good in Xiliang, it is still not as good as his counselor.
"Order the other three battalions to kill more soldiers and less fight with the opponent's generals, so as to destroy their vital strength."
After Cao Shuo's order was issued, Gao Shun, Xia Houyuan, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, Yan Liang and others ordered the soldiers to shoot from a distance as far as possible.
Even if they break out, they don't care, only You Fufeng is left in Dong Zhuo's territory, and they have already broken through the other territories.
Let alone a few generals, even if Dong Zhuo escaped, where could he go?
The number of people in Chang'an City was far greater than that of You Fufeng, and he escaped without many soldiers to recruit.
The relationship between Dong Zhuo and Ma Teng is not very good. Ma Teng will not take Dong Zhuo in at all, let alone Liu Bei. As long as Cao Shuo exerts a little pressure, Liu Bei will obediently hand over Dong Zhuo.
Li Jue asked his deputy general to lead [-] Xiliang iron cavalry to entangle Dianwei's army first, and then took advantage of the scuffle between the two sides to lead the [-] flying bear army to break out of the encirclement.
Li Shi, Li Jue's son, said with a look of disdain: "Father, I think their soldiers' attack power is not as good as that of the Feixiong Army, why don't we charge again?"
"Snapped!"
Li Jue slapped Li Shi on the head, and then scolded: "I hate myself for living too long, do you think you are Dian Wei's opponent, or Xia Houyuan and Cao Ren's opponent?"
"This……"
Li Shi got excited for a while and forgot about this matter. Although he has both civil and military skills, he is by no means a fierce general. What he wants to do is a Confucian general.
Li Jue ordered: "After you arrive at Youfufeng, you don't need to stay in the army anymore. I will arrange some reliable subordinates for you. You leave Qin State quickly and go to Yizhou to be an Anyi general."
Li Shi asked with a puzzled face: "Father, why is this? If you think His Majesty will be destroyed by Cao Shuo, why don't we just rely on Cao Shuo?"
Li Jue shook his head and said: "Your Majesty has been kind to me, I can't be an ungrateful villain. After you arrive in Yizhou, ask for an official position in Nanzhong, and dominate one side there, absolutely no problem."
Li Shi had already understood what Li Jue meant, and Li Jue had the will to die, so he sighed and agreed to Li Jue's suggestion that it would be nice to be a local emperor.
