Chapter 1685: : Yumenguan

No matter how tyrannical a person is in his hands, don't be arrogant. Maybe someone who was not worth mentioning in your eyes in the past will become a deadly existence. From Chen Ying, Lu Bu learned these things.

Regardless of whether Chen Ying is dead or not, Dunhuang must be occupied. Now Dunhuang has become a more important county in Liangzhou, and the number of people in Dunhuang is not comparable to that of Zhangye and Jiuquan. Having Dunhuang can not only control and enter the Western Regions. The roads of the various countries can also strengthen their own strength, and Lu Bu has no reason to give up.

"Master, if Chen Ying is dead, I am afraid it will take a lot of effort to occupy Dunhuang." Guo Jiadao.

Lü Bu nodded and said, "The Yumen Pass that worries the Lord the most is the Yumen Pass. If Dong Wu seeks reinforcements from the Western Regions, Yumen Pass will be dangerous."

"Dong Wu is a Han Chinese after all, he won't do this easily when he has no alternative." Pang Tong said.

"It can be seen from Dong Wu's actions that this is a man who has achieved his goal without compromise. If he is defeated in Dunhuang, how will he choose whether to wait for death or seek reinforcements, since he knows that Chen Ying has already taken refuge in this king. After killing Chen Ying, he is ready to break with the king." Lu Bu said.

"From the subordinate's point of view, you can send elite soldiers to Yumen Pass. As long as you control Yumen Pass in the hands of the lord, Dong Wu and others will be the turtles in the urn." Li Ru said slowly.

"Wen You's words are true, Yumen Pass must not be lost. Zhang Yun, you led three thousand soldiers and rushed to Yumen Pass overnight. It is best to persuade the guards in the pass." Lu Bu said: "The guard at Yumen Pass is Chen Ying's hand. , There is a great possibility of persuading to succeed."

"Here." Zhang Xi clasped his fist. Lu Bu's last sentence was clearly telling him that this was to give credit to him.

"Lord, although Dunhuang cannot be called Gaochishen, there are 8,000 defenders in the city. It is not eager to break through. If the lord sends his generals to control the rest of Dunhuang's counties first In the hands, Dunhuang becomes an isolated city. As a result, the defenders in the city will be panicked when they learn about it. After facing the lord's army, it is difficult to have high fighting spirit." Pang Tongdao.

After thinking a little bit, Lü Bu agreed. Even though he is worried about the situation in Dunhuang, it is difficult to seize Dunhuang from Dong Wu's hands. Dong Wu has been in Dunhuang for many years and has a certain ability, otherwise Chen Ying will not die in Dong Wu's hands, but after controlling the counties of Dunhuang in his hands, the situation can be greatly changed.

When the rest of Dunhuang counties are under the control of Dong Wu, it will give the defenders in the city a sense of peace of mind, but when these cities fall into the hands of the enemy, they will feel completely different.

When Dunhuang became an isolated city, would the defenders in the city still have the high fighting spirit they are now? Unless they are soldiers who are absolutely loyal to Dong Wu, they must consider their own safety, including the family in the city.

The family was afraid of Lu Bu, but in the face of true life and death, they often did not have more choices. When the difference between the strengths of the two sides was too large, they had to make such a choice, just like the Jizhou family succumbed to Lu Bu, it was not them. If they are willing to do this, but do not choose this way, they will be in danger of life.

The strength of the aristocratic family is tyrannical, and they still value their own lives.

Zhao Yun led an army of 3,000. After arriving in Dunhuang, he camped directly outside the city. There were 8,000 defenders in the city. What he had to do was to guard against the news of Dunhuang at the same time, and prepare for the attack on Dunhuang after the army arrived.

There were only three thousand enemy troops outside the city, which gave Dong Wu an idea. He was a captain in the army. However, before Dunhuang had Chen Yingzai, he did not have much reputation in the army. Now the opportunity is here. He soon took over the army, if he could win the battle against Lu Bu's army, he would definitely be able to increase his prestige in the army, and some generals who still had ideas about Chen Ying would naturally go to him.

Dong Wu thought he still had some martial arts, and his strategy was not bad. If he defeated Zhao Yun, the benefits would be huge. Faced with this temptation, Dong Wu decided to put it together.

However, Dong Wu decided to discuss this matter with Zhao Lu. After all, Zhao Lu was the prefect of Dunhuang at this time.

After hearing Dong Wu's words, Zhao Lu was silent for a long time: "General Dong, do you know why Chen Ying turned to King Jin instead of fighting against King Jin with the strength of the city."

"What's the reason?" Dong Wu couldn't help asking. When Chen Ying was in the city, his influence in the city was naturally not comparable to that of Dong Wu at this time. At that time, only an order from Chen Ying could make the city The soldiers followed Chen Ying and fought to the end.

"It's not that Chen Ying doesn't want to fight against King Jin. It's that King Jin's army is too strong. Otherwise, how could King Jin defeat the powerful Qiang army?" Zhao Lu said.

When Dong Wu heard this, his brows frowned slightly: "Even if the strength of the army under King Jin’s tent is strong, the strength of the Dunhuang army is not weak. Besides, there are only 3,000 enemy troops outside the city. If these 3,000 can be defeated, it will be inevitable. It is not difficult for King Jin to be able to shake the morale of our army and defend Dunhuang."

Zhao Lu said, "General Dong will do what he can. Now the lives of the family in the city are in the hands of General Dong. After defeat, he must know what situation he will face."

After that, Zhao Lu left. Although he is the nominal prefect of Dunhuang, the power in the city is in the hands of Dong Wu. The military power is crucial to Dunhuang at this time.

After thinking about it for a long time, Dong Wu decided to fight hard. If he succeeded, it would bring too much benefit to Dong Wu, and he could hardly resist such a temptation.

Defeating the vanguard army of the Han army gave Dong Wu more expectations.

After the scouts heard the news of the vanguard army outside the city, Dong Wu's heart was relieved. Judging from the news of the scouts, the enemy troops outside the city were not very tightly guarded, and even a little lax, although there was something in it. There were hundreds of cavalrymen, and there were a thousand cavalrymen in Dunhuang City. With a thousand cavalrymen enough to entangle these cavalrymen, and then the army rushed and killed Zhao Yun, wouldn't it be a simple matter.

But Dong Wu didn't plan to do so much. Since the enemy was at such a disadvantage, if he could achieve a hearty victory, it would have a greater impact on the city.
