The battle at Huxiao Pass is still going on.

Even though Chen Qingzhi and Zhao Yun had tried their best to buy Cao Shen a day, Huxiao Pass was still not captured.

At the beginning, Cao Shen's plan was to withdraw his troops after capturing Huxiao Pass, but when things developed to this point, the inherent plan would definitely not be able to keep up with the changes.

After the war situation gradually expanded, Cao Shen simply changed his mind and used all his strength to capture Huxiao Pass. The entire army was stationed at Huxiao Pass, which served as a hub for Chen Qingzhi and Zhao Yun to defeat the enemy. In this way,

It's not in vain to spend so much time fighting a war of attrition with the Jin army.

Yue Fei stared at the front line and continued to attack the city one after another. If one wave failed, he would use two waves. However, the battle seemed to be in a stalemate. No matter what siege method he used, he could never capture Huxiao Pass in a very short time.

.

In the tent.

Some soldiers temporarily retreated and said to Yue Fei: "General Yue, let the soldiers rest. We have been attacking the city for a whole day, and the soldiers are already very tired..."

I originally wanted to continue talking, but after noticing the change in Yue Fei's expression, I didn't dare to say anything anymore.

How could Yue Fei not know how tired the soldiers were now?

But he really couldn't stop.

From the moment the decision was made to attack Huxiao Pass, it was destined to be a quick battle and there was no room for delay.

Because every moment, friendly forces will sacrifice one more point to prevent the arrival of enemy reinforcements.

He said to the general who wanted to take a rest: "Have you participated in the defense of the capital?"

The general was stunned, clasped his fists and said in shame: "Are you saying that when Emperor Renzong was still alive, the battle to defend the capital started on the ninth day of March in the 16th year of Taiping? The last general joined the army when His Majesty took office as King of Qi in Qingzhou, and

I never participated in that battle with His Majesty."

Yue Fei nodded and said: "I see. Do you know that during the battle to defend the capital, His Majesty, who was the eldest prince at that time, only slept for a few hours a day? I heard that it was not even three hours.

Your Majesty can do this. How long have the soldiers been attacking the city before they are tired? If we don't seize the time to capture Huxiao Pass, our friendly forces will suffer a lot of casualties. This kind of price is beyond our ability to bear. You understand

?”

The general instantly felt ashamed and ashamed. He buried his head very low, clasped his fists and said, "I understand, general."

Yue Fei nodded again and said to the generals: "You will personally lead the army to attack the city to boost the morale of the three armies. If Huxiao Pass cannot be captured by this time, I will personally lead a force to attack the enemy city at night.

!”

The officers and soldiers of the three armies bowed in unison, "The last general will take your orders!"

The battle at Huxiao Pass was urgent, and Yue Fei was reluctant to waste every minute.

On Cao Shen's side, he heard that a Jin army of 50,000 people was passing through the deep mountains and canyons, heading straight towards Huxiao Pass.

This really shocked him. Fortunately, he discovered it early, otherwise the consequences would be unpredictable.

He asked Bai Qi to lead 50,000 people to intercept them.

After coming to Qingzhou again, I haven't seen Bai Qi's fighting skills. After all, Bai Qi, the killing god of Wei, is now famous all over the world.

Taking this opportunity, we can also take a look at how far Bai Qi can take this battle when evenly matched.

By the Wuding River.

Jianwu has been fighting a bloody battle with 100,000 Jin troops for half a day. Generally speaking, Jin's casualties are much greater than Wei's casualties.

Probably because the strength of the Sword Five Half-Step Land Immortal combined with the strength of Wei Guobingfeng, an extraordinary level of power was unleashed.

But even so, the 30,000 elite infantry and 20,000 cavalry brought by Jian Wu paid the price of more than half being damaged.

In ancient wars, as long as there was a scar on the body, a person's combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced.

By the Wuding River, against the backdrop of the sunset that looked like residual blood, the remaining 20,000 people were waiting in formation.

Beside them, countless bodies of robes and enemies had fallen.

Although they were seriously injured, fortunately, not a single enemy soldier was allowed to cross the Wuding River.

Jianwu looked at his colleagues and brothers in front of him, and his nose suddenly felt sore. Ever since His Majesty went out from Qijun to fight against the Jin Dynasty, he has never been in such a weak state. This time the Jin army is really too powerful.

, so strong that it exceeded his expectations.

A general advised Jian Wu to call for reinforcements.

Because if the war continues like this, in the end, these tens of thousands of people will face the risk of being annihilated.

But Jianwu was very helpless and didn't know how to answer the general.

Because before leading the troops out of the barracks, he received a message from Marshal Zhao, 'We are going to Wudinghe and there are no reinforcements. You have to rely on yourself for everything.'

There are no reinforcements, which means they will not be able to retreat until they receive the news of the withdrawal from Marshal Zhao Yun.

Otherwise, we can only defend ourselves at Wuding River.

"Enemy attack enemy attack!"

Suddenly a sentry yelled, bringing Jian Wu, who was deep in sad thought, back to reality.

Seeing the enemy troops in front of him once again organized a charge, he shouted to the remaining 20,000 Wei heroes: "Hold your weapons tightly, these people are coming again!"

The soldiers were refreshed and shouted angrily:

"Never let them cross the river!"

"Long live Wei! Long live Your Majesty!"

"Those who sacrifice their lives for the country will only wait for this day!"

There is no doubt that a life and death battle has begun again.

Skyline Canyon.

Zhao Yun personally guards here.

They are fighting against the enemy.

Zhao Yun saw that the enemy was about to break through the line of defense, so he personally led a force to defend this place.

He was calm and composed in front of thousands of troops, and said with a chuckle: "Changshan Zhao Zilong is here, anyone who is brave can come!"

Then, I saw the cold light flashing, and the gun coming out of the dragon!

Under the illumination of Gentian's bright silver spear, the enemy's heads rolled to the ground one after another.

However, no matter how brave an individual is, he will never be able to control the endless stream of enemy soldiers.

An extremely strenuous defensive battle began.

While Zhao Yun was killing the enemy, he was also thinking about the current situation on the other side of Wuding River.

He had never heard of this Jin army.

Especially the cavalry, their combat power is even more astonishing.

The Jin army was more powerful than the ones he encountered before.

After a long while, I heard that the scouts came to report that this army had been personally trained by the King of Beiliang a few years ago and that it was the elite of the Jin army.

No wonder he was able to compete equally with the Wei army he brought out.

This was the only time in the battle between the Wei army and the Jin army that the battle loss ratio was one to one.

In other words, for every Wei soldier who died, a Jin soldier died.

One for one.

This was a terrifying battle for Wei's army.

Ever since Zhao Changqing took control of Wei's military and political power, there has never been such a battle-loss ratio as now.

Two days have passed.

For two whole days and nights, Huxiao Pass still failed to be taken.

However, the war situation has continued until now, and it is becoming more and more unfavorable to Wei.

The situation at Jianwu is the worst. As of now, only 8,000 people are left.

And there are no reinforcements yet.

If the fight continues, I'm afraid the whole army will really be wiped out.

When Cao Shen decided to attack Huxiao Pass, he had already sent someone on a fast horse to bring all the news from the border area to the capital.

It was not until the evening of the third day that Zhao Changqing received intelligence from the border area.

At this moment, a large map was placed on the ground in the Xuanzheng Hall. In order to clearly see and analyze the situation on the border, Zhao Changqing turned on the light and looked at the border map non-stop.

This state has been maintained for an hour or two.

When it was time for dinner, he didn't eat either.

According to the soldier who sent the information, the battle at Huxiao Pass was the key to whether the Wei army could take the initiative in the battle with Jin, and there was no room for failure, so he was so concerned.

Empress Murong Hening of the Wei Dynasty brought a bowl of sweet porridge that she had learned to cook for several days, and wanted to give it to Zhao Changqing to drink. However, she stood outside the palace for a long time without seeing His Majesty say a word, and she did not want to disturb him.

His Majesty, who was attentive, just stood outside the palace and waited quietly.
