"Promise!"

    After listening to Lu Li for a long time, Zhang Heng had no choice but to bow his hand. At present, he was defeated and didn''t say it. He had to pass back these provocative words.

    With the Lord''s character, I will certainly be punished for a crime of demoralizing my spirit, and I will withdraw my skin if I don''t die.

    At this point, Zhang Heng''s face became more gloomy. He subconsciously turned his horse''s head and thought about his words while moving forward, so as to reduce his guilt.

    Just then, a feather arrow flew by rubbing the towel on his head, "wait, I haven''t let you go yet."

    "You led the troops to break through Hangu pass. If you don''t punish them, how can you show the majesty of the Han law?"

    Speaking of this, Lu Li put down the magpie painting bow, raised his eyes and looked at Guan Lou, and ordered, "come on, cut off the nose of the enemy, and then cut off their ears."

    Cutting nose and ear is a criminal law handed down from ancient times——

    Anyone who touches the king''s order, changes the public service system, rapes, steals and injures others will be punished.

    However, Lu Li''s move is just to humiliate Dong Zhuo. Anyway, the other party can''t retreat. On the contrary, Dong Zhuo is bound to attack on a large scale when he sees that the vanguard is frustrated. Therefore, it''s better to provoke him and make him lose his mind.

    "General, a scholar can be killed and not humiliated." Zhang Heng restrained his expression, but his eyes still turned red.

    No one with a little blood can accept such an insulting punishment.

    Because of this, Zhang Heng pulled out the tassel gun inserted on the ground, raised his eyes and stared at Lu Li. His expression was ferocious. It was obvious that he was ready to die.

    You know, the nose is in the middle of the face, and the position is significant. Once it is cut off, a prominent mark will be left on the face, which can never be covered up.

    "I didn''t say I would torture you."

    Lu Li knew it well and asked Zhang Heng to return to the camp to deliver the news. It was already a great humiliation for him. If he cut his nose and ears again, he would work hard with himself.

    "You are naturally your own man when you deliver the news for captain Bendu. How can you be punished?"

    With that, the door behind him opened again, and a hundred horsemen rushed out, led by vice captain Zhang Jing.

    The general is incompetent and tired to death.

    After the general''s defeat, the 500 Dong riders stayed where they were because they knew that if they dared to resist, they would die on the spot.

    In addition, for the penalty of cutting nose, these military Han people from Xiliang did not conflict very much——

    Hundreds of years ago, some people who had been tortured had no face to survive in the local area, so they fled in groups to live in remote areas. The foreign people were surprised to see these people without noses and ears. When they asked the reason, they deceived the foreign people and said that this was a custom in China. Out of their admiration for the culture of the Central Plains, the foreign people followed suit and cut off their noses and ears.

    Most of Dong Qizhong are Hu people and Hu Hua Han people, so it saves a lot of trouble.

    Zhang Jing took a hundred soldiers and divided them into several teams. He quickly cut off the enemy''s nose and ears without bandaging them. When he was finished, he stripped their armor and took away their horses.

    In the whole process, Zhang Heng''s hand clenched and loosened the gun rod, and so on until Lu Li waved like a fly: "remember to bring my reminder to Dong Hou."

    "Promise... Promise!"

    Zhang Heng''s heart crossed, turned his horse''s head, and went straight away.

    Not long after, Hangu pass was closed again. Lu Li boarded the city tower and overlooked the Xiliang army camp.

    At this moment, if you ignore the smell of blood and the mess on the ground, everything seems to have never happened, especially silent.

    Although Zhao Yun was a novice and lacked battlefield experience, he could understand this practice and did not dislike it. He asked, "brother, cut his nose, cut his ears, and ordered the enemy to send a message to Dong Zhuo. Do you want to use the general''s method?"

    "Show it strong."

    Lu Li said frankly, "Dong Zhuo came thousands of miles away and led the army himself. Would he like to return it empty handed? This time, he sent troops to test the reality of the valley pass. Now I have broken the pioneer camp he sent, and I will certainly put away his contempt."

    "Good."

    Zhang Yang nodded, "but Dong Zhuo has been on the battlefield for 20 years. He has seen countless formations. Now he is pressed by strong troops. He will never give up easily."

    "Next, there will be a fierce battle."

    Speaking of this, Lu Li sighed and said in a deep voice: "as long as he blocks it when it is sharp, the Xiliang iron cavalry outside the pass will stop a little."

    "And after tonight, the reinforcements will arrive as scheduled, and all the troubles will be solved."

    After all, one drum up, and then decline, three exhausts, each exhausts, so conquer it!

    For Lu Li''s words, Zhao Yun and Zhang Yang have no objection, but who should fight next time has become their most concerned problem.

    "If I can fight the enemy two times, I will defeat Dong Zhuo''s spirit!"

    It''s really rare that people can say that they can''t refute it, and Lu Li is undoubtedly the leader.

    Zhao Yun: "

    Publicity: "

    At the same time, Zhang Heng, who narrowly escaped, returned to Dong camp with 500 disabled soldiers.

    Seeing this behind the scenes, the soldiers in charge of guarding Yuanmen were shocked and hurried to call the doctor for treatment. The soldiers along the way saw it and ignored the strict military discipline. They directly surrounded and asked. When they learned that these tragedies were caused by the captain of Hangu pass, they immediately shouted for revenge.

    They want to follow Dong Zhuo to fight in the north and south, suppress the yellow scarf and counter the rebellion. They have always won more and lost less, and they have never been humiliated like this when they lost!

    For a moment, the camp was in an uproar.

    From the village commander to the military Marquis, and then to the Sima of other departments, they all looked at the camp and wanted to rush in immediately to ask for war.

    You know, for this ever victorious division, it''s just a defeat. It can''t make them sink. On the contrary, it will only arouse their fighting spirit: wash away this shame with blood!

    As for Zhang Heng.

    How can a defeated general be brave?

    In order to survive and remain useful, he chose to endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens at that time, but he could go back to the camp and face the exploratory eyes of soldiers and small schools, and his regret immediately surged into his heart.

    Especially after seeing the camp with a big flag, Zhang Heng felt unprecedented fear and humiliation. Subconsciously, he pulled out his waist knife

    When tangled, the account door was opened.

    A scholar with a beautiful face walked out and said in a warm voice, "the Lord ordered you to go in."

    "Sir..."

    "Needless to say, we underestimated the defender."

    At this time, Li Ru patted Zhang Heng on the shoulder and said with forgiveness, "after you left, Jia Xu and I started a divination at the same time."

    "How?"

    "The thirtieth hexagram, separation, two separation, and fire are mutually important. The upper and lower parts are clear. Fire has Qi, but it is invisible. The Lord has no real and uncertain intention

    Seeing the attitude of the first counselor in the army, Zhang Heng was a little relieved and said: it turned out that the will of God is so. I think the Lord will not punish him severely.

    With this in mind, he asked, "how do you understand, sir?"

    "The appearance is very prosperous, and the sun is in the sky. It''s not suitable to rush forward and be impulsive." Li Ru shook his head. "At the beginning, we shouldn''t have hastily sent you two over. It''s useless to say more. Go in and the Lord is waiting inside."

    In this way, they walked into the big account side by side.

    Seeing Dong Zhuo, Zhang Heng immediately fell on the ground without saying a word, grabbed the ground with his head, and silently waited for his fall.

    Time passed minute by minute.

    During this period, the sound of wailing came from afar. The doctors were dealing with the injuries of 500 disabled soldiers. It was really sad to hear it and tears to see it.

    After waiting for a long time, Zhang Heng bravely raised his head and said, "Captain Hanguguan asked me to send a message to the Lord."

    Dong Zhuo was expressionless. He held the knife at his waist with one hand and stroked his erect stomach with the other hand. He seemed to be suppressing his anger and asked, "what''s the word?"

    "The guard said, and the guard said..."

    "What are you doing? Just say it!"

    With that, Dong Zhuo narrowed his eyes and recovered his appearance of being independent of the world, but the veteran who had followed him for many years knew it——

    This action... I''m afraid someone will suffer.

    Zhang Heng swallowed his throat, pressed various ideas, kowtowed and apologized, and said, "the guard Du Wei said: I hope Dong Hou will return to Xiliang as soon as possible before he makes a big mistake."

    "Wait, what does he call me? Listen to what he says."

    "Dong Hou," Zhang Heng answered truthfully.

    Hearing the speech, the people in the tent were surprised. The enemy general acted so arrogantly that he thought he would speak unkindly, but he didn''t expect to know some manners.

    At this time, Duke, who frowned and thought about all kinds of situations, thought of a possibility:

    Guard Du Wei is also the actor!

    After all, only those who are familiar with the historical process will maintain their due respect under the current situation of making clear their cars and horses and preparing for a war.

    Dong Zhuo stared at Zhang Heng and looked at Shaoqing. Seeing his respectful attitude and fear on his face, he loosened his right hand and said expressionless, "is there anything else?"

    "... the end will dare not say."

    "Huh?"

    Pu fan''s big hand put on the handle again.

    "There are guards of the Yulin army in the palace Province, and there are also Chengmen, Shangjun Colonel''s Department, Zhujun Colonel''s department and Dianjun Colonel''s department in Beijing... Now, it is very inappropriate for officials other than Duke Dong to enter Luoyang, even if they are escorting the king of diligence."

    At this point, Zhang Heng choked again, like a dilemma.

    But before Dong Zhuo could speak, he caught a glimmer of cold light in the corner of his eye and hurriedly said:

    "In addition, the old thief yuan Kai coaxed the imperial edict to kill the old Taiwei fan Ling and the Shaofu Xu Xiang, connived at the children of the family to besiege the imperial city and disturb the empress dowager, resulting in the young emperor''s exile among the people. Hou Dong also believed in these Haoshou and cangbearded old thieves who deceived heaven and earth, destroyed the country and killed the king?"

    "To tell you the truth, the Empress Dowager has issued a decree to gather righteous soldiers and vowed to sweep Qinghua Xia and kill the murderers. If you know the overall situation, you can retreat early, or you can protect yourself. If not..."

    "How?"

    "If you still rely on your soldiers, you will be nothing but a turtle in a jar. You can turn your hands and catch it!"

    Without Dong Zhuo''s reaction, Hua Xiong was furious and said in a hate voice: "an unknown young man dares to speak wildly and humiliate the Lord like this. He will ask for war at the end!"

    "Yes, as long as the Lord gives an order, we will immediately call troops out of the camp and kill him personally!"

    The words were quite passionate.

    However, Duke still noticed that some of the generals were angry. Instead of fearing to guard the pass, Duke felt guilty and worried about being liquidated by the so-called volunteer teachers——

    It''s a great crime to enter Beijing without an imperial edict. Now I hear that Yuan Kai, the patron of the imperial court, is a man who tries to destroy the country and kill the king. He is vaguely about to fall down. Who doesn''t panic when encountering this change? It''s just not obvious on the face.

    And who is Dong Zhuo?

    At a glance, you will have doubts.

    He sighed with a long sigh and looked particularly angry. Lang said, "when I was young, I joined the army and was determined to kill the country. The Qiang in Liangzhou, the yellow scarf in Jizhou and the rebels in Xiliang have been fighting on the battlefield for 30 years now!"

    Except Li Ru and Jia Xu, no one knew what the LORD was selling, and they all listened with their hands.

    "In the past thirty-one years, I have fought almost every month. There is no good meat behind me. Why are there more than a hundred injuries? As we all know, I came from a low background and was not a famous family. Now my military skills are all fought one knife at a time!"

    Even if he already knew that his cheap father-in-law was not simple and not as unbearable as described by later generations, Duke still couldn''t help sighing when he heard this.

    At the same time, Dong Zhuo still said to himself: "is it the so-called King minister who leads the land? Now the young suspect and the castrated party controls the government. As long as we are loyal to the king, how can we distinguish between foreign officials and court officials? I vowed to enter Luoyang and see with my own eyes who are loyal officials and who are sycophants! Help the Han Dynasty!"

    Words fall, and all accounts are silent.

    These words were resounding and enlightening.

    Somehow, Duke felt that he was full of a sense of mission. He wanted to fly into the imperial city with a knife and kill all traitors and villains.

    In other words.

    What I do is the right way!

    This is especially true for the jumper, let alone others.

    Hua Xiong, Xu Rong and other town generals asked for war one after another. Those in a hurry pulled out their swords on the spot to show their determination. As for the previous doubts, they have long disappeared!

    Seeing that the atmosphere was almost over, Dong Zhuo turned his anger into a smile and said in a loud voice: "gentlemen, don''t be impatient. The city guard thief frustrated my vanguard. At this time, the morale of the army must be high. He must want to win another game by taking this opportunity..."

    Work hard, fail again, and run out three times.

    Who knows this truth?

    Dong Zhuo saw Lu Li''s planning at a glance and was secretly vigilant.

    Li Ru and Jia Xu divined separately, but the result was exactly the same: they should not be eager and impulsive.

    With this in mind, Dong Zhuo waved his big hand: "it''s not too late to bury the pot and cook for the soldiers before marching thousands of miles."

    "Go back to camp and rectify."

    "Promise!"

    Military orders are like a mountain, so the generals have to temporarily press their hearts and withdraw from the big account.

    No reward or punishment. Zhang Heng felt that this was the best result. He kowtowed to Dong Zhuo three times in a row before silently getting up and walking outside the account.

    Seeing this, Duke hurried to follow. He wanted to know what the captain of Hanguguan looked like and who dressed him up.

    Meng Ming?

    Obviously a word!

    You can''t guess anything with this.

    Suddenly, Dong Zhuo shouted to Duke, "Ziqing, where are you going?"

    "Father in law, my son-in-law has something to ask general Zhang." Duke quickly folded and reported back.

    Seeing that he was in a hurry, Dong Zhuo nodded, waved and said, "go and return quickly, and have dinner together later."

    "Promise."

    It was dark at a quarter past midnight.

    The smell of meat wafted over Hangu pass.

    With an empty stomach, Lu Li grabbed a roast leg of lamb and asked, "does Marquis Dong mean to go to war?"

    "I tell you, Duwei, we''re passing by. The gate of Dong camp is closed. It seems that we don''t want to send troops."

    Zhang Jing stood with his hands down, looking at the golden lamb leg and swallowing his saliva.
