Chapter 229 – Demoralizing Tactic
Dong Zhuo Camp, north of Luo Yang.
It was already 7 PM, and both sides withdrew their troops.
Dong Zhuo had set up a camp three kilometers north of Luo Yang and close to the Yellow River.
In Dong Zhuo's private tent, the fat tyrant lied on his bed with a pale complexion. Though he survived Diao Chan's mental attack, he had yet to recover from the fright and the torture.
Hua Xiong stood beside the bed, guarding his boss. Unlike rusty Dong Zhuo, Hua Xiong's body was in shape, so he had already recovered from the previous battle.
Li Ru, however, stared at the two with a frown. He had helped to command the troops during the siege, but he did not expect a difficult fight. Furthermore, he was not satisfied by the sudden order of Dong Zhuo and Hua Xiong for signaling the attack without consulting him.
The loss of 20,000 soldiers of 100,000 in the siege was unacceptable to Li Ru.
