Chapter 159

~6 min read 1,089 words

"The Emperor's carriage is also there; perhaps Dong Zhuo is forcing the Emperor to flee Luoyang."

Everyone was shocked and put down their wine cups.

"That old thief Dong Zhuo has actually fled!"

At the same time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Dong Zhuo still had over two hundred thousand troops; if a full-scale war really broke out, there would definitely be heavy casualties!

Yuan Shao slapped the table in anger.

"Thief Dong is shameful, actually fleeing west!"

Cao Cao stood up excitedly.

"Gentlemen, Dong Zhuo must be fleeing to Chang'an. If our army pursues with all our might now, we will definitely crush Thief Dong and welcome the Emperor back!"

Unfortunately, almost no warlords responded to him!

Yuan Shu curled his lips.

"Mengde, why are you so excited? This might be Dong Zhuo's trick, waiting for us to pursue so he can launch an ambush."

Cao Cao couldn't be bothered to pay attention to this trash Yuan Shu and cupped his hands.

"Alliance Leader, if we don't pursue Dong Zhuo now, when will we?"

Yuan Shao didn't want to pursue either; Dong Zhuo had fled west, so the alliance was successfully completed.

Next, he was in a hurry to go back and plot to seize Jizhou and develop his own power.

These warlords had all realized the benefits of being the boss themselves.

Now, asking them to go to court every day and flatter others was not making things difficult for them!

Yuan Shao waved his hand.

"Don't be anxious, Mengde. It won't be too late to wait for the scouts to investigate again. Gonglu is right; if this is Dong Zhuo's trick, our army's rash pursuit will inevitably be dangerous!"

Cao Cao?!

He said loudly,

"Before Hulao Pass, Liu Bei defeated Lu Bu, and the Xiliang army has lost its edge. Dong Zhuo fleeing west to Chang'an is a helpless move. If you gentlemen fight this battle, the world can be settled!"

Yuan Shao remained silent and did not respond.

A few warlords said in low voices,

"Don't act rashly."

"Mengde is too excited!"

Cao Cao was furious.

"Hmph, these fools are not worth consulting with!"

After saying this, he strode out of the tent and led his own troops to pursue toward Luoyang.

Liu Bei was still sparring with Zhang Fei in his camp at this time.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

Liu Bei used the Overlord Spear Technique, the spear tip striking Zhang Fei's serpent spear violently, forcing him to retreat step by step!

Zhang Fei was drenched in sweat and shouted loudly,

"Big Brother, your strength is even greater than that guy Lu Bu, and this spear technique is also extremely good!"

"Whoosh!"

Liu Bei withdrew his spear and laughed heartily.

"Satisfying!"

Zhao Yun rode over.

"My Lord, scouts report that flames are soaring to the sky in Luoyang; Dong Zhuo has burned Luoyang City."

"Cao Cao's camp is already empty, and he has gone to Luoyang to pursue Dong Zhuo!"

Liu Bei?

"This Boss Cao is too anxious; he went to pursue Dong Zhuo without even saying a word."

Liu Bei looked around.

"You all hurry up and prepare too. In two hours, our army will also set out in full force to pursue Dong Zhuo!"

"Understood!"

Zhao Yun and the others felt that their lord was indeed different from those warlords who only knew how to drink; he cared about the Great Han!

Jia Kui cupped his hands.

"My Lord, should we inform Yuan Shao's side?"

Liu Bei thought for a moment.

"That's fine. Yide, take some men and get a month's worth of grain and fodder for our army from Yuan Shu's side."

"If Yuan Shu isn't willing to give it, you know what to do!"

Zhang Fei grinned.

"Big Brother, I understand! I understand very well!"

Guan Yu asked,

"Big Brother, is the alliance about to break up?"

Liu Bei nodded.

"Just about. Dong Zhuo has fled west to Chang'an. Only Cao Cao has led troops to pursue, and the other warlords have different agendas; the team is not easy to lead!"

Liu Bei looked around.

"The people of Luoyang are being driven by the Xiliang army. It's freezing cold now, and forced migration will likely kill many people. We will try our best to help the people take refuge in Hedong."

Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Jia Kui, and others cupped their hands one after another.

"My Lord is righteous!"

A few hours later,

Yuan Shu rushed into the Allied camp with a pair of panda eyes, feeling extremely aggrieved.

"It's rebellion, this Liu Bei is rebelling!"

Several drunken warlords were a bit strange.

"Gonglu, what happened to you?"

Yuan Shu said loudly,

"Liu Bei's third brother Zhang Fei rushed into the supply camp and snatched a batch of grain and fodder. I didn't allow it, and he gave me two punches!"

Yuan Shao??

"Liu Bei just sent someone to say he was also going to pursue Dong Zhuo. I didn't agree, but he led his troops away himself and even snatched grain and fodder?!"

"This is truly lawless!"

Yuan Shao felt that people's hearts were scattered and the team was not easy to lead!

Especially Cao Cao and Liu Bei, who had set a very bad example!

Yuan Shu looked around and didn't see Liu Bei, so his courage grew.

"This weaver of mats and seller of sandals is just a bandit! He doesn't listen to orders at all!"

Yuan Shao was afraid that more warlords would go to pursue, and if they really welcomed the Emperor back, what would happen?

"Gentlemen, let's stay put for now and discuss it after the scouts investigate clearly!"

Yuan Shu spat.

"With Cao Cao and Liu Bei's troops, they aren't even enough to fill the gaps in Dong Zhuo's teeth!"

The other warlords also wanted to preserve their strength; Dong Zhuo's twenty thousand Xiliang soldiers were fierce, so there was no need to go and find trouble!

"Drink."

"Come, come, keep drinking!"

The live stream chat increased.

"Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are truly disgusting. They claimed to be avenging their uncle, but what now? They're lying flat!"

"With these two nephews, their uncle probably wishes he could take them both down with him!"

"These warlords haven't wanted to be loyal to the Great Han for a long time."

"That's right, instead of fighting, it's better to go back and grab territory!"

"Cao Cao and Liu Bei have unique vision; they are the ones who will accomplish great things!" ===== CHAPTER 160 =====
