The Kanto coalition forces had hundreds of thousands, divided into three directions, southeast, north and north, besieged Luoyang. However, few of them really supported the Han Dynasty.

Only after Cao Shen, the people of Qiao County dreamed of expeditioning Cao Cao, who was still loyal to the Western General Cao Hou.

This is so thrilling, but hundreds of thousands of troops should not be underestimated. After several days of formation, they finally arrived in front of Sishui Pass.

On that morning, the wind was very cold and the white mist was everywhere.

The western pass is long, with the word "Zhang" flying in the wind, and one man is the pass and ten thousand men cannot open. The eastern army has hundreds of thousands of flags everywhere, and the people are roaring.

After several days of cultivation, Yuan Shao's "disease" was cured. He also put on iron armor, rode a horse, and came to the front of Sishui Pass with Cao Cao and others against the wind and cold.

It is also important to establish a camp in this army. How to establish a camp has been established. But now it has arrived in front of Sishui Pass, and the general Zhang Xiu is right in front of him. Can you still not be prepared?

After the army stopped, Yuan Shao turned over and dismounted, and said to Cao Cao who turned over and dismounted together: "That Zhang Xiu is so strong. Our army has not yet established a stable foothold. He may break out of the door and catch us off guard."

"Let Gongsun Zan lead the cavalry of Youzhou to guard the side. If Zhang Xiu fights out of the pass, he will attack him from the side."

"I ordered Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei, to lead the elite soldiers under his command to set up a formation on the front. He prepared more shields and crossbows to fight with crossbows. The embroidery is sophisticated that it cannot be connected in close combat."

"Our central army will not move, make preparations."

"The rest of the princes should step up their camps."

Yuan Shao is not incompetent when he wants to say that he is incompetent, but not incompetent. Just like at this moment, he has excellent military acumen, arranged troops and dispatched troops, and dispatched troops without any mistakes.

"No." Cao Cao responded to the promise and immediately ordered a few commissars to go down to pass the order.

The troops sent orders to send orders, and the princes should do whatever they should do. For example, Liu Dai, Qiao Mao, Kong Yichang, and Cao Cao's subordinates all began to dig trenches and set up camps.

The powerful princes such as Gongsun Zan and Bao Xin were strictly guarded.

Gongsun Zan led the elite infantry cavalry of Youzhou under his command and slowly moved to the south as a flank. The infantry was behind, the cavalry was in front, the spears were splendid, and the armor was bright.

"Gongsun Zan" and "Liu" under the Jing, the three brothers Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei stood on horseback, each holding weapons.

"I see that Yuan Shao is also a waste snack. If I follow my actions, I will lead a team of three thousand elite troops to challenge the gate. If I can win, my morale will be greatly boosted. If I can kill Zhang Xiu, the Sishui Pass will be ours. The Hulao is ahead, and Luoyang is Luoyang."

Zhang Fei looked up from time to time at the "Zhang" flag on Sishui Pass, very restless. Although Zhang Xiu is the same surname as him, he didn't mind at all and twisted Zhang Xiu's head.

Guan Yu still didn't say anything, but his pair of phoenix eyes opened and closed, and his murderous aura was flashing.

"Hundreds of thousands of troops set up camps, the leader must have all-round considerations. Third brother, don't say too much." Liu Bei had no choice but to scold him again.

This time Gongsun Zan did not speak for Zhang Fei, and nodded.

This war is not just about fighting generals or inviting wars. Especially such a large-scale war is rare in decades. Yuan Shao has hundreds of thousands of soldiers in his hand, so he needs to mobilize his troops and prepare it.

There is a saying.

Han Xin is the one who leads millions of troops to rampant the world.

Xiang Yu was the one who led more than 10,000 elite troops to rampage the world.

It is not that Xiang Yu is awesome than Han Xin, but that Han Xin is really awesome. The general of a general with millions of troops attacked the city and fell into the city. The army is not in chaos and is rampant. He is a true hero.

This kind of army with hundreds of thousands of troops is easy to lose its footsteps and is not something that ordinary people can command.

Xiang Yu is different. It is not difficult to let Xiang Yu die in a row, and it is not difficult to win consecutive battles. But if Xiang Yu is given a million soldiers, he will definitely stop.

................

Inside Sishui Pass, in the Guan Ling Mansion.

Zhang Xiu held a big black gun and fought with Xu Shu, who also held a gun for dozens of rounds. The main thing was to feed the moves and explain the explanation as the auxiliary.

Usually Dian Wei advises Xu Shu, and occasionally Zhang Xiu will end up in person.

After Zhang Xiu put away his big gun, he glanced at Xu Shu. He had to admit that this kid does have the potential to become a powerful general.

He has good sword skills, and he has been playing with guns and sticks since he was a child. He is bold and brave. At first glance, he is really a fierce general.

But this guy is clearly called "Xu Shu".

"Han Shouhou. The Guandong army has already arrived at the gate." Guan Ling Niu Li hurried to see Zhang Xiu and bowed to salute.

Zhang Xiu glanced at him and looked a little nervous. But it was no wonder that hundreds of thousands of troops were really not common.

"Chang Fazheng, Meng Da and the others all shouted, and follow me to the city to see." Zhang Xiu smiled, looked around and ordered.

Then he first entered the pass, put on armor, went up the pass with everyone, and looked at the army in the east.

Zhang Xiu first glanced at the shield and crossbow formation in front of him, and the banner was "Bao", and then looked at the southern cavalry, and the banner was "Gongsun".

Zhang Xiu looked around and smiled and said, "Yuan Shao was still cautious in using troops. Bao Xin fought with the Yellow Turban Remnants in Jibei, and fought dozens of battles. Gongsun Zan fought with Wuhuan in Youzhou, and was surrounded by powerful cavalry. They were all guarded against me from the pass and caught him off guard. But they were all useless, and I didn't plan to come out of the pass and kill him."

All the civil and military officials smiled slightly. They all agreed with Zhang Xiu's strategy. If you are guarding the majestic pass, why should you fight with these Kanto soldiers on the flat ground?

At this moment, a person stood up. Everyone looked closely and found that it was another Sima Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao was not afraid when facing the eyes of everyone. He bowed and bowed to Zhang Xiu and said, "Han Shouhouhou, a young general, is not talented. Since he surrendered to the command of the Lord, he has not made any contribution. Now he is willing to lead fifty personal soldiers to go down to fight against the people of Guandong."

Even the defenders were not completely in conflict with the generals who went out of the city to fight. Zhang Xiu even knew that a big drama was about to begin.

Besides, Zhang Liao was extremely brave to stand up in the face of hundreds of thousands of Kanto soldiers.

"Wenyuan is a real tiger general." Zhang Xiu praised, but then comforted him again: "Wenyuan doesn't have to worry. Yuan Shao holds hundreds of thousands of Guandong soldiers in his hand, and his momentum is very strong. But it is difficult for me to attack, so he should set up a formation to fight tomorrow. Wenyuan will be able to accumulate energy tonight, and I will let you fight first tomorrow and get the final result."

"Thank you, Han Shouhou." Zhang Liao was overjoyed, bowed and saluted, returned to Zhang Xiu, stood with his head raised and his chest pressed his sword.

He is young and energetic, brave and aggressive, like a wild horse that breaks his reins, and is a fighting maniac. And as he himself said, he hopes to win something and express his feelings.

There are many generals around Zhang Xiu, but there is only one Dian Wei who is like Zhang Liao. However, Dian Wei only wants to protect Zhang Xiu and will not speak by himself.

It is indeed a good choice to let Zhang Liao play the forward.

"Although I expected Yuan Shao would not attack the city, nor would he attack at night. But I was not afraid of ten thousand, but I was also afraid of something. General Xu Rong and General Niu, you two are good at setting up defenses and dispatching people to guard the passes. You should not make any mistakes." After taking a look, Zhang Xiu felt bored, so he said to Xu Rong and Niu Li.

"No." Both of them agreed seriously. Later, Zhang Xiu left with Dian Wei and others, but Meng Da, Shi Guangyuan, Xu Shu, Wu Yi and Wu Ban stayed. This was the first time these juniors saw so many soldiers and were very excited.

Unlike Zhang Xiu, he had already experienced hundreds of thousands of Liangzhou soldiers from Ma Teng and Han Sui when he was in Liangzhou.

............

Hundreds of thousands of troops built the camp. Moreover, the weather is cold and the land is still frozen, which consumes even more time. The coalition forces arrived at Sishui Pass in the morning and built the camp until the evening.

After the construction of the camp was completed, there was no need to be wary of Zhang Xiu's sudden attack. Yuan Shao ordered Bao Xin and Gongsun Zan to return to the army, and ordered the princes and generals to take strict vigilance and be careful that Zhang Xiu's sneak attack on the camp at night.

Then he prepared a banquet in the big tent and drank with the princes.

Although the wind outside the tent is cold, it is as warm as summer. The central location of the tent is red, reflecting the faces of all the princes, and they are also red.

Yuan Shao sat on the commander's seat and exchanged cups with the princes. The atmosphere was very warm.

These princes are not mediocre, but most of them are literary literati who are good at writing and do not know how to fight. Now they have hundreds of thousands of troops, and while they are drunk, a few of them are lawless.

Qiao Mao, the prefect of Dongjun, raised his wine glass and stood up, came to the central position, and said to everyone: "I heard that Zhang Xiuren was called "General Shenwei Tian" and was extremely wise and brave. I have hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Guandong, and there are no less than a thousand powerful generals. Are you afraid that he will not succeed?"

After saying that, Qiao Mao turned around and bowed to Yuan Shao and said, "The leader of the alliance. The Sishui Pass is really a powerful pass, and it is difficult to conquer it for a while. Tomorrow morning, I will ask my general Liu Sandao to name a call to fight Zhang Xiu. If Zhang Xiu cannot retreat, our morale will rise sharply. If Zhang Xiu goes to fight, he will definitely kill him within three swords."

As soon as these words came out, the tent was quiet and the princes were ready to move. If they could kill Zhang Xiu, it would be a big achievement.

"Who is this Liu Sandao?" Yuan Shao despised Qiao Mao for showing off, and said calmly on the surface.

"Can they be from Liaodong, Youzhou. The surname is Liu and the name is Guang?" Gongsun Zan thought for a moment and said in surprise.

"That's right." Qiao Mao was quite content and said with a smile.

"Who is this Liu Guang?" someone asked impatiently.

"This man was born with a weight of 7000 pounds and 800 pounds, and his mother died of labor. When she grew up, she had a strong bones. At the age of fifteen, she dared to go into the mountain to chase the bear and tiger with a bow and crossbow. At the age of sixteen, she joined the army and made a big knife. She was invincible. People said that "within three swords, the enemy will definitely be chopped under the horse", so she is known as "Liu Sandao".

Gongsun Zan was from Youzhou and had heard of this person quite well, so he acted as an explanation.

"That's right, it's Liu Sandao, a really powerful general. Now he is the captain under my command." Qiao Mao was even more contented, and raised his glass and drank it, and his drunkenness was obvious.

Gongsun Zan believed quite well this "Liu Sandao", so he bowed to Yuan Shao and said, "The leader of the alliance, the prefect of Qiao, is true. If Liu Sandao can challenge Zhang Xiu tomorrow, he will definitely make contributions."
