Early the next morning, the coalition forces continued their fierce attack.

The battle was as fierce as before, the army was like a tide, the sound of killing was loud, and the mountains and rivers seemed to be shaking.

However, after a day of fierce fighting, just like before, no progress was made despite paying a heavy price.

Everyone in the coalition felt that this fierce battle was like committing suicide. There was no hope of victory other than death.

As night fell, inside the coalition tent, most of the princes including Zhang Miao and Liu Dai believed that this hopeless battle could not continue.

Zhang Miao said angrily: "I originally thought that when our princes raised troops, the officers and soldiers in Luoyang who were forced to submit to Dong Zhuo, as well as the major noble families, would respond in large numbers, but who would have thought that this was not the case at all!

Many of the people who came here to fight with our army were former officers and soldiers!

And Sishui Pass is the most powerful pass in the world. It can be said that one man can rule the pass and no one can open it! It is simply impossible for us to break through it completely from the outside by ourselves!" His tone was full of frustration and withdrawal.

Liu Dai immediately echoed: "What Brother Zhang Miao said is absolutely true! Although we want to be loyal to the imperial court, the imperial court itself does not want to resist, so what else can we do?

There is a saying among doctors that ‘medicine can’t cure diseases’, but now the imperial court wants to kill it, and it’s useless no matter how anxious we foreign princes are!”

Everyone agreed, saying that the Sishui Pass was unbreakable and that this battle was unwinnable. Rather than risking the lives of the officers and soldiers in vain, it was better to return home as soon as possible and save their own lives.

When Sun Jian saw them talking like this, he felt angry and was ready to scold them.

At this moment, Zhang Lang's voice suddenly came from outside: "Who said the Sishui Pass is unbreakable?"

Everyone was slightly surprised. They all looked towards the door and saw Zhang Lang, who was dusty and still had a few scratches on his face, striding in. Sun Ren, who was standing next to Sun Jian, saw Zhang Lang and his bright eyes suddenly shone.

Come.

Zhang Lang walked to the middle of the tent, clasped his fists at the princes present, and then said: "I have a way to break through Sishui Pass!"

Everyone was in disbelief, and Zhang Miao said with a mocking tone: "I haven't seen the Fourth Young Master all day today, and I thought that the Fourth Young Master had left in fear! I didn't expect that as soon as he came back, he suddenly became so arrogant!

Fourth Young Master, the art of war is not a child's play, and Sishui Pass is the most important pass in the world. Even our elders and I can't do anything about it. What can you, a young man, do?

You must know that there is no joke in the army. If you boast but cannot fulfill it, even if you are the heir of the alliance leader, you must give an explanation to the princes!

So you’d better not talk nonsense, let me and other elders decide on major matters here!”

Zhang Lang saw that Zhang Miao was actually posing and looking down on himself. He felt annoyed and said to Zhang Miao: "Since I dare to say it, I am sure of it!

As a great hero, Zhang Taishou is so disappointed in others' ambitions that he destroys his own prestige. It's really disappointing!"

Zhang Miao was furious and stood up, pointing at Zhang Lang and shouting: "How dare you, a child with a yellow mouth, be so arrogant! If it weren't for the sake of the alliance leader, I would definitely make you look good!"

Zhang Lang stared at Zhang Miao and said coldly: "Stop pointing your fingers. You have to know that when you point one finger at me, the other fingers are all pointing at yourself!"

Zhang Miao couldn't help but get furious when he saw that Zhang Lang dared to contradict him, but he didn't dare to explode when he thought that Zhang Lang was Yuan Shao's son after all.

Zhang Lang glanced at everyone present and said: "I have investigated clearly. I am confident that I will sneak into the city gate and attack the city gate. I will take action tonight. Please continue to attack Sishui Pass tomorrow as before.

Once I open the city gate, the army can rush into the pass in one fell swoop!" In fact, Zhang Lang's words were a bit exaggerated. Although he thought that he could cross Feixian Ridge after exploring Feixian Ridge, saying that he was confident of attacking the city gate in one fell swoop was not

Deceptive.

Even with Zhang Lang's rich experience, the probability of success for this raid was probably less than 50%. But at this moment, he had to say he was sure.

Zhang Miao didn't believe Zhang Lang's words at all and sneered: "What a shame!"

Others began to discuss in low voices, and most of them shook their heads, obviously not optimistic about Zhang Lang. Only Sun Jian expressed his support for Zhang Lang.

Zhang Lang looked at these people and felt a little disappointed. The so-called heroes of the Three Kingdoms were actually only those few who were truly powerful.

Zhang Lang said loudly: "If I succeed, everyone will be able to invade Guanzhong and establish immortal feats to shock the world! If I fail, I will die, and you will not lose anything. This can be said to be a business that guarantees profit and no loss.

What is there to hesitate about?”

There was quite a bit of sarcasm in his tone.

Everyone was stunned for a moment. Although they were very dissatisfied with Zhang Lang's tone, they all felt that Zhang Lang's words were quite reasonable.

Seeing that everyone was still hesitating, Sun Jian said angrily: "Everyone, what nephew Yuan Maixian said has been quite clear. If you are still hesitating, you will really be looked down upon!

Tomorrow we will attack with all our strength for another day, if it fails, we will retreat!"

Everyone looked at each other and nodded. Zhang Miao was still angry at Zhang Lang and stared at Zhang Lang and shouted: "Since the Fourth Young Master has such determination, he must issue a military order!"

Sun Ren was shocked and subconsciously shouted: "How can this be done?!"

Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Sun Ren's face, and many people showed strange expressions.

Sun Ren's cheeks turned red, and then he stared at Zhang Miao and said angrily: "Prefect Zhang is a prefect of a county and a high official in the border areas. He calls himself an elder, but he is so competitive with a junior. It is really embarrassing!"

Zhang Miao felt ashamed and angry. He looked at Sun Jian and asked, "Sun Wentai, your daughter speaks to me like this. It is extremely rude. What do you say?"

Sun Jian had long disliked Zhang Miao, but now that he was facing a formidable enemy, he did not want to disappoint Zhang Miao too much, so he turned to Sun Ren and shouted in a low voice: "Okay, please stop saying a few words."

Sun Ren was depressed, but he did not dare to disobey his father and stopped talking.

Zhang Lang cast a grateful look at Sun Ren, then smiled and said loudly: "Since Governor Zhang has this request, I will fulfill his wish and issue a military order!"

Everyone was shocked, and Sun Jian quickly reminded: "My dear nephew, there is no joke in the army, you must be careful!..."

Zhang Lang cupped his fists and said, "Thank you for your concern, uncle! I firmly believe that our army will win this battle, so why not issue a military order!"

Zhang Miao was afraid that Sun Jian would continue to persuade him, so he quickly said: "Since the Fourth Young Master is willing to issue a military order, then quickly bring the pen and ink!"

An officer immediately brought a pen and ink and a blank piece of wood. Zhang Miao took up the pen and wrote a military order, saying something like, if he could not succeed, he would be willing to die to apologize!

When Sun Jian saw this content, he frowned and felt that Zhang Miao was really narrow-minded!

Zhang Lang didn't care. He didn't have a writing brush, so he dipped his finger in some ink and made a fingerprint on the military order. He then clasped his fists towards Sun Jian and said, "Uncle, I'm going to take action now. Say goodbye!"

Sun Jian clasped his fists and said, "Be careful, nephew!" Sun Ce also clasped his fists and said, "Brother Yuan, take care!" Although Sun Ren didn't say anything, his concern was obvious.

Zhang Lang nodded to Sun Ce and Sun Ren and turned around.

He returned to his military camp, gave a few orders, and then led the sharp-edged troops alone and set off with all the equipment for mountain assault! Hundreds of people quickly disappeared into the night!
