Chapter 329: The princes attack the city

() Even though he tried his best to fight the lion against the rabbit, Lu Bu tried his best to fight Fang Yue. Fang Yue was a little disappointed when they fought. Fang Yue's words were quite beautiful, but it was a pity that he didn't have real materials at his disposal. Lu Bu was confident that he could do it within five moves.

Take his or her life.

At the end of the battle, there was a flash of cold light, and Fang Yue's head was in a different place. The ownerless war horse neighed and ran towards the formation, and the Xiliang army let out a roar that shook the sky.

Lu Bu put away his halberd, looked at the eighteen princes with a sneer, and said slowly: "But there are still people who dare to step forward and fight!"

Wang Kuang's complexion kept changing, and the general he had guaranteed was killed by Lu Bu three times. This not only greatly damaged his prestige in front of the princes, but also made them laugh.

Seeing that no one in Wang Kuang's army dared to fight, Lü Bu roared and charged straight towards Wang Kuang's army, charging into Wang Kuang's army as if they were in a deserted place. Wang Kuang's army scattered and retreated when they saw Lü Bu's arrival. The Xiliang army took the opportunity to rush forward, killing Wang Kuang's army and throwing away their helmets.

Abandon armor.

The princes' army opened the gate of the stronghold, and Qiao Mao and Yuan Yi led their troops to fight out. Only then did Lu Bu lead his troops to retreat.

Seeing that Lü Bu had broken into the army alone, all the princes were in uniform mood. For a while, no one dared to come forward to fight, and Lü Bu was allowed to lead his soldiers to curse outside Hulao Pass.

"Reporting to the leader of the alliance, Lu Bu was cursing outside the gate of the stronghold." The messenger could not stand the instigation of the soldiers and ran to the Chinese army's tent to report the news.

Yuan Shao said with an ugly expression: "Does anyone dare to step forward and fight?"

Gongsun Zan looked around at the princes in the tent, stepped out of the crowd, and said loudly: "I am willing to go."

Upon hearing this, the princes all turned their attention to Gongsun Zan.

Yuan Shao praised: "General Gongsun is really a hero among men. It is easy to defeat Lu Bu."

Gongsun Zan walked out of the camp with high morale, gathered a thousand white horse followers, and opened the gate of the camp. When Liu, Guan, and Zhang saw Gongsun Zan personally going to battle, they were afraid of making a mistake and hurriedly followed.

Lu Bu saw that Baima Yi's military appearance was neat and tidy, with his flag fluttering in the wind, so he put away his contempt.

Gongsun Zan waved the long spear in his hand and said loudly: "Dong Zhuo and Jia Rong are immoral. Lu Bu must surrender quickly, otherwise we will all behead you on the day the army breaks Hulao Pass!"

Lu Bu sneered, didn't answer, and came over to him.

Gongsun Zan is known as the White Horse General, and foreigners are very afraid of him. He is also a man with strong martial arts skills. Seeing Lu Bu show off his power many times, he is naturally unhappy. He rushes to kill before the battle. He relies on his own ability. Gongsun Zan has been on the battlefield for many years and has never been afraid.

After all, he was quite dissatisfied with the successive defeats of the princes.

After a short battle, Gongsun Zan lost to Lu Bu and rushed back to the formation. Lu Bu was about to rush into the formation, but was caught by Zhang Fei and Guan Yu who were beside Liu Bei and killed him for a while.

The reason why Zhang Fei and Guan Yu tied with Lu Bu the day before was because Zhang Fei had fought with Zhao Yun before and was injured. Now that he had rested for a day, he was naturally not afraid of Lu Bu. The three of them fought vigorously.

The three of them fought in a D-shaped formation. About fifty feet away, Lu Bu made a feint of a halberd and rushed back to the main formation.

Zhang Fei shouted proudly: "Little Lu Bu, do you dare to fight again?"

A thunderous roar came from the Hulao Pass: "The coalition forces are shameless, bullying the few with their many; the coalition's shameless, bullying the few with their many..."

When the Xiliang cavalry beside Lu Bu heard this, they burst into laughter. They did not appear to be demoralized at all because of Lu Bu's defeat.

Zhang Fei, who was very proud in the field, felt as if he had eaten a dead fly when he heard these words. The corners of his mouth moved but he did not refute. His face was even more dark and rosy, and the red was shining. Guan Yu, on the other hand, was always red.

His face makes it difficult to judge.

The coalition soldiers heard this, because Zhang Fei and Guan Yu's sense of superiority in victory was gone. The most taboo thing for generals on the battlefield is to use more to bully the minority. However, in the two victories of the coalition, two or even three generals were used to suppress them.

What he obtained made the soldier feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Gongsun Zan snorted coldly and said: "Xiliang Army? Let you see the military power of Baima Yicong."

With a wave of his long sword in his hand, a thousand white horse followers behind him picked up various weapons and rushed forward. Among them, Gongsun Zan was the most obvious, with more than a hundred cavalry around him all riding white war horses.

Lü Bu led a thousand Xiliang troops to meet them, and the battlefield was filled with shouts of killing.

In the battlefield, these two ruthless men, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, were invincible. They killed the Xiliang Army's cavalry in succession. Lü Bu was heartbroken when he saw it. He raised his halberd and charged towards Gongsun Zan. No enemy along the way could defeat him. Wherever the halberd passed, a puff of air passed through him.

The sound of Tong's cavalry falling to the ground could not be heard. Gongsun Zan stepped forward with intention. Remembering Lu Bu's bravery before, he ordered his soldiers to charge forward and kill him.

But when I saw that Lu Bu's Fang Tian Hua Ji was dancing in the arena, it was airtight, and there were no enemy troops within two meters around him.

Lu Bu completely shocked Gongsun Zan. His personal bravery had reached such a level that even if there were tens of thousands of people trying to trap him, it would be difficult.

Although Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were brave and good at fighting, they could not kill the Xiliang Army cavalry with one blow. Several Xiliang Army cavalry teamed up to fight against Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. In this way, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu were defeated.

Falling into the Xiliang army formation.

Kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, both sides

There is no blood feud between the generals, so naturally they will not fight to the point of death. Moreover, Gongsun Zan and Jia Rong have an old relationship and do not want to get too serious.

Both sides withdrew their troops and returned to their strongholds to fight again the next day.

Two days later, after a full meal, the coalition soldiers began a fierce attack on Hulao Pass under the early morning glow.

In the first attack on the city, the Allied forces invested only 20,000 troops, divided into two rounds of attacks.

Jia Rong stood at Hulao Pass and looked at the densely packed coalition soldiers under the pass. He looked indifferent and ordered: "The generals of each department have organized their own soldiers to defend the city. If anyone shrinks from the battle, behead them; if anyone disrupts the morale of the army, behead them! Order!"

Those who arrive but do not arrive, behead!" The three consecutive beheadings made the surrounding soldiers hear clearly and did not dare to neglect, and returned to the prearranged positions to defend the city.

"Mi Wei, you lead a hundred soldiers. If you lock up anyone who violates the rules, you will be killed directly without having to report them!" Jia Rong handed the Qingzhi Sword to Mi Wei's hand and said slowly.

Mi Wei's body trembled, and he took the Qingzhi Sword with slightly trembling hands. This sword was used as the sword to command the three armies in Jincheng. Its significance to the Xiliang Army can be imagined. He did not expect such an important position.

It fell on his head, and looking at the envious looks of the Xiliang Army generals around him, Mi Wei felt extremely confident. At this moment, even if Jia Rong ordered him to lead a hundred people to rush to the coalition camp, he would not frown.

Jia Rong was in the center of Hulao Pass, facing the mighty coalition soldiers and surrounded by Li Shun's trapped camp.

At the forefront were Allied soldiers with siege ladders, chariot rushers, and eighteen princes gathered together. There were naturally countless siege weapons. They were more than ten times stronger than Sun Jian's army. The Allies were obviously prepared.

The attack troops and the ladder soldiers are followed closely by the archers and shield soldiers. With the cover of the archers and shield soldiers, the ladder soldiers can be easily set up to attack the city.

"Fire the arrows!" Following Jia Rong's order and the sound of closing the string, countless crossbow arrows roared towards the coalition forces outside the Pass. The dense crossbow arrows darkened the entire sky.

Hulao Pass guards the capital, and there are many weapons for defending the city. Crossbow arrows are one of them, and there is also a giant crossbow arrow. According to some generals, this kind of crossbow arrow can shoot a distance of 150 steps and is extremely powerful.

It can be called the Han's number one weapon for defending the city.

Although the attack speed of the crossbow arrows is slow, its accuracy is very high. One round of crossbow arrows took away the lives of thousands of coalition soldiers. The shields in the hands of the coalition soldiers were filled with dense crossbow arrows. The coalition forces were not trained, and they rushed to kill in chaos.

There is no formation at all, so the arrow rain plays a great role in killing the enemy.

"Fire the arrow!" Jia Rong waved the scimitar in his hand again, and the archer released the arrow in his hand.

"Fire the arrow!" With Jia Rong's constant orders, the arrows kept flying towards Guanxia. Jia Rong did not simply shoot the arrow directly, but listened to the order uniformly and used the three-stage shooting method.

, so that the coalition soldiers attacking the city will be threatened from the city at all times.

After suffering nearly 3,000 casualties, the coalition forces finally approached Hulao Pass. Aerial ladders were set up at Hulao Pass, and countless coalition soldiers climbed up the city wall desperately.

Jia Rong's orders were passed down one after another, and crossbows and arrows were constantly fired towards the pass, which greatly hindered the speed of the coalition soldiers climbing the ladder. The shield soldiers buried their heads firmly behind the shields, not daring to attack the tiger.

A closer look shows that although the shield soldiers can block the arrows to a certain extent, they cannot resist the large rocks falling from the sky.

It is an indisputable fact that the coalition soldiers lack training. The coalition forces are powerful and invincible. The cities along the way provide soldiers, horses and food and grass. The coalition forces are accustomed to fighting with favorable winds. This is the first time they have experienced such a tough battle.

"Let go!" Following Li Shun's order, the already boiling oil was poured towards the ram under the city gate. The rockets fell and the ram ignited into a raging fire. The allied forces of the princes were completely at a disadvantage.

Pots of boiling oil poured down from the door. The soldiers under the door were so densely packed that there was no need to aim at all. The screams of the coalition soldiers could be heard casually. The exposed skin of the soldiers was poured with hot oil.

Let out a miserable cry.

Suddenly, several jinglans slowly walked out from the coalition camp, and the jinglans were covered with densely packed soldiers.

The dozens of soldiers at the top are holding bows and arrows, and there are more infantry in the middle of the well.

Seeing the appearance of Jinglan, Jia Rong's heart became heavy. Jinglan can greatly weaken the advantage of the garrison at Guan pass. The soldiers at Guan are condescending and can easily kill the soldiers under Guan, but the Jinglan of the princes has ten soldiers.

meters high, which is a little higher than Hulao Pass. As a result, the defenders of Hulao Pass became the disadvantaged party.

The heights of the Jinglan and Hulao Pass are roughly the same. If the Jinglan is pushed below the Hulao Pass, the soldiers on the Jinglan can climb directly to the Hulao Pass without the need for ladders. There are hundreds of soldiers on the Jinglan, and they can suddenly climb up.

Climbing up the city wall will be a huge blow to the garrison at the gate.

However, the speed of Jinglan is very slow and it is extremely inconvenient to move. In addition, there are corpses scattered outside the pass, and there are soldiers clearing the road in front of Jinglan.
