Wang Yue's black-clothed soldiers used death to open the city gate, until the death of the last person allowed Lu Bu to enter Sishui Pass. His mood was extremely heavy. The Xiliang army could sacrifice itself anytime and anywhere for the mission.
Life is all for a belief, for the commander-in-chief of the Xiliang Army. I thought that Wang Yue was just a man walking around in the rivers and lakes. Because he was used by the Han Emperor, he became a sharp blade in his hands. Only after he truly joined the Xiliang Army did he understand what he was doing.
The order is so heavy. In order to complete it, the lives of assassinated soldiers are like a piece of grass.
Lu Bu's tyranny frightened Yu Jin. He had heard that there were many fierce generals in the Xiliang army, and that all of them had bravery that no man could match, but he had never really seen it. Now that he saw Lu Bu, everything became clear.
It can really change the situation on the battlefield, especially when the two sides are in a stalemate.
The cavalry behind him followed Lu Bu's footsteps and broke into the enemy camp. The scimitar kept cutting off the lives of the defenders. Everyone's face was solemn. People around him kept falling off their horses, but they did not stop for a moment. This is the elite.
You won't be distracted by external objects.
Yu Jin said coldly: "Shoot an arrow."
The three hundred archers in front were already wailing under the iron hooves of the iron cavalry. The archers could only have one chance to fire. When the cavalry got close, they had no armor to protect them and only had their swords in their hands. They could only be slaughtered continuously.
, heavy casualties.
"General, there are still our soldiers ahead. They..." the deputy general advised, stretching out the butcher knife towards his robe. The previous time had made him unbelievable, but now Yu Jin gave another order.
"We can't care about so much anymore. For the sake of Sishui Pass, even if they sacrifice themselves, they will die in a worthy death. There is no room for loss in Sishui Pass." Yu Jin said coldly.
A dense rain of arrows caused the cavalry to lose more than a dozen people, but the defenders suffered more deaths. They looked around blankly, not understanding where these cold arrows came from. They were defending the cavalry in front, but they were completely defenseless in the rear.
The soldiers' hearts were shaken. The general they trusted actually shot arrows at them and kept retreating, giving the cavalry a chance.
All five hundred cavalry entered the city. There were only a few dozen cavalry in Sishui Pass. How could they stop them? The cavalry who entered the pass were like demons from hell. Within a quarter of an hour, they defeated the defenders step by step.
Two thousand infantrymen came to the pass and established the victory of this war. Yu Jin looked at the enemy in front with a cold face and a bitter taste in his mouth. He thought that Sishui Pass was built like an iron barrel, but he did not expect that he was still defeated by the Xiliang army.
He easily entered the city. Thinking of his lord's trust and the current situation, he really wanted to pull out the sword on his waist and cut his throat and commit suicide.
"General, hurry up and retreat, leaving the green mountains behind. Don't worry about running out of firewood. There is Hulao Pass behind Sishui Pass. General, you should quickly go to Hulao Pass and notify the defenders inside to prepare for the Xiliang Army's attack."
Yu Jin was suddenly awakened by the lieutenant general's advice. The Xiliang army launched an attack on Sishui Pass. It must have been planned for a long time, and the loss of Sishui Pass was so sudden. If the Xiliang army used a small group of cavalry to disguise Cao's army and attack Sishui Pass,
Shuiguan is the real danger. Hulao Pass, like Sishui Pass, is a natural danger. As long as it is defended, the Xiliang army can only wander outside Luoyang and cannot enter the hinterland of the Central Plains.
"Retreat." After Yu Jin gave the order, he took the horse rein from the soldier, got on his horse, led dozens of cavalry, and left first.
After pacifying Sishui Pass, Lu Bu went without stopping, ordered his soldiers to put on Cao's army's clothes, and led more than a hundred cavalry in the direction of Hulao Pass. He was able to capture both Sishui Pass and Hulao Pass in one night.
Naturally, Lu Bu's status in the Xiliang army will be unshakable, and it cannot be matched by Ma Chao, a young rising star. Being provoked by Ma Chao one after another, Lu Bu also wants to make some achievements and let Xiliang
Look at all the generals of the army, the most powerful general of the Xiliang Army is not in vain.
Guo Jia's plan just gave Lu Bu this opportunity.
The infantry soon took over the control of Sishui Pass. The banner of the Xiliang Army fluttered in the night. The merchants staying in the pass only heard the constant sounds of fighting and the sound of horse hooves coming from the pass. They didn't know what was going on. They had been doing business abroad all year round.
They naturally understand that they cannot go out at this time. No matter who becomes the ruler, it will not delay their business, and there is no need to lose their lives for a little curiosity.
After capturing Sishui Pass, Lu Bu had only 300 cavalry left in his hands. Yu Jin's counterattack caused the Xiliang army to lose 200 elite cavalry.
When Lu Bu led his army to Hulao Pass, he saw that the gate was tightly closed and the soldiers patrolling the pass were densely packed. It was many times stronger than Sishui Pass. He was secretly shocked. It seemed that there must be many Cao troops in Hulao Pass. They attacked by force.
, even if 50,000 troops are dispatched together, it will take several months.
"Open the city gate quickly and let me enter the city." A general next to Lu Bu shouted at the door, while Lu Bu hid among the cavalry. He had fought against Cao Jun many times, so someone in Cao Jun's general must know him.
"Who is locked up?"
"This general is the defender of Sishui Pass. The Xiliang army came to attack overnight, so the general sent me to ask for help." The general shouted.
"The Xiliang army is attacking the city?" the gatekeeper general asked. Sishui Pass is a natural danger, and Yu Jin has thousands of troops in his hands. Even if the Xiliang army comes to attack, he will not be so panicked.
"Archers prepare," the gatekeeper general ordered.
"Don't talk nonsense. The general has thousands of powerful soldiers. How can the Xiliang army be afraid of attacking the city?"
"Hurry up and open the door. The situation is urgent. If Sishui Pass is lost because of this, can you bear the responsibility?"
The general guarding the gate looked at the cavalry at the pass with a faint light of fire, and saw that they were indeed Cao's cavalry. There were still some blood stains on these cavalry. Some of the soldiers were seriously injured and would die quickly if they were not treated.
With secret shock in his heart, he ordered: "Open the door."
The rumble of horse hooves was heard again in the distance, and a general shouted loudly: "Don't open the city gate, these people are Xiliang Army cavalry."
The general guarding the gate hurriedly ordered his soldiers to stop opening the city gate and observe the situation outside the pass. At the same time, he ordered the soldiers to go and notify Xia Houyuan.
"Open the city gate quickly." The general beside Lu Bu shouted unwillingly.
Lu Bu's eyes suddenly sharpened. Unexpectedly, the situation he had finally created would be broken by Yu Jin's arrival. He secretly ordered: "Kill all these cavalry, capture Yu Jin, and we will retreat."
He just wanted to capture Yu Jin alive when the garrison at the gate was unprepared. It was a worthwhile trip.
Yu Jin's shout also made his situation very critical. After running all night, the horse under him was already exhausted. It was really unwise to fight the Xiliang army at this time, but for the sake of Hulao Pass, he
There is no need to worry about so much anymore. As long as the Xiliang army can be kept out of the pass, it will be a success.
When the general guarding the gate saw the cavalry who had just asked him to open the city gate, he suddenly changed his direction and charged towards the other ten cavalrymen of Cao's army. After a moment of fighting, they became clear and he said nonchalantly: "What's going on? Our cavalry is
How can we fight each other?"
Lu Bu's eyes were cold and pointed at Yu Jin. The two of them could not fight against the Triads. Lu Bu stabbed the horse under Yu Jin's body with his halberd. When Yu Jin stood up from the ground in embarrassment, he had already been captured.
"When the Japanese general comes, he will definitely take down Hulao Pass." Lu Bu's angry voice kept echoing in the gate.
The general guarding the gate was very happy in his heart. Fortunately, there was another Cao army who brought it to him. Otherwise, the cavalry would swarm in after the city gate was opened and Hulao Pass would be lost. His responsibility would have been great, but he also mourned for that general.
After Xia Houyuan received the news from the soldiers, he hurried to the pass without even dressing neatly. After hearing the situation described by the general, his face was like the bottom of a pot. Xia Houyuan was able to gain Cao Cao's trust to guard Hulao Pass, an important pass.
The reason why he passed the checkpoint is because he is brave and resourceful, has a strong ability to judge things when he encounters them, and is a member of Cao Cao's clan, so he is trustworthy.
"Sishui Pass?" Xia Houyuan murmured: "Lost?"
"General, how is it possible? There are thousands of General Yu Jin's soldiers in Sishui Pass, and General Yu Jin is cautious and will definitely not give the enemy a chance." said the deputy general.
Xia Houyuan did not explain why. When a cavalry came to seize the city gate, everything was already clear. It was impossible for the Xiliang army to fly over and approach Hulao Pass. Sishui Pass was a natural danger.
Even if we are capable, we cannot reach Hulao Pass.
"Be on strict guard. No one is allowed to open the city gate without my order. Anyone who dares to approach the city gate will be killed without mercy." Xia Houyuan said.
"promise."
Hulao Pass was agitated by Lu Bu's loud shout and the changes outside the city. The strength of the patrolling soldiers at Hulao Pass was more than doubled. The torches were burning brightly, and the situation outside the pass was clearly visible.
The army arrived at Sishui Pass. After hearing the results of the battle reported by Lu Bu, Zhao Yun praised: "General Lu is really a blessed general for our army. He lost hundreds of men and captured Sishui Pass and deserves the greatest credit."
.”
Lu Bu cupped his fists and said, "Thank you so much, general. The successful victory of Sishui Pass in this battle is all due to General Wang Yue."
"Wang Yue?" Zhao Yun asked, but he didn't expect that this battle would be related to Wang Yue.
"That's right, General Wang Yue sent his soldiers to sneak attack Sishui Pass overnight and opened the city gate. Only then did he have the opportunity to lead the cavalry into the pass, but fifty assassination soldiers died under the gate."
Lu Bu's voice was slightly choked.
Zhao Yun said with emotion: "I will definitely report this matter to my lord, bury the dead warriors, and treat their families well."
Ma Chao looked at Lu Bu with burning eyes. All the credit should have been attributed to him. He was sure that the sneak attack on Sishui Pass must have been carried out by Guo Jia.
Less than three days after the army was deployed, Sishui Pass was captured, which greatly boosted the morale of the army. The generals were already rubbing shoulders and preparing to show off their skills outside Hulao Pass.
