"Brothers, rush for me, take Hulao Pass, and capture Huang Gongheng alive!"
"Capture and kill Huang Gongheng, and you will receive a reward from the marquis!"
"Follow King Rencheng and make great achievements!"
"Kill!"
"Brothers, you must hold the pass and shoot them hard!"
"Swear to the death to defend Hulao Pass and the Han Dynasty!"
From Hulao Pass, there were bursts of fierce shouts of killing.
At the pass, the Han army fought tooth and nail to defend, while at the pass, the Wei army fought tooth and nail to attack.
It was already the third day of the Wei army's attack on Hulao Pass. Under the command of Cao Zhang, the Wei army continued to attack day and night. Even if Huang Quan commanded the army to defend desperately, it was already in danger.
You must know that the 50,000-strong army led by Cao Zhang can be considered strong after more than a year of training and exercises. In addition, Cao Zhang's command and coordination of forces are extremely powerful, and they are not afraid of death in battle.
After only two days of fighting, two thousand Han soldiers and horses in Hulao were killed and wounded, leaving them unable to fight. At this time, there were only less than 2,000 soldiers left in Hulao.
After three consecutive days of day and night attacks, the Wei army suffered less than a thousand casualties.
Cao Zhang's ability is evident.
At this time, Hulao Pass was closed, and Huang Quan, Jufu and others were patrolling back and forth on the pass. The two of them were covered in blood and dressed in dark red. The color of the armor itself could no longer be recognized clearly.
You must know that Huang Quan is the general of Zhendong. He has a high position and is supposed to command and deploy troops. However, due to lack of manpower, he is forced to go out and fight the enemy personally, just like Xia Houyuan went out to repair antlers in person.
Jufu's face was full of exhaustion, and the spear in his hand was no longer as sharp as before. In the past three days, he rested for at most one or two hours every day, and fought with Cao Zhang twice. If he hadn't been outstanding in martial arts, he would have been
Standing in a condescending position, with the help of guards around him, he had been hacked to death by Cao Zhang long ago!
At this time, Cao Zhang stood at the foot of Hulao Pass and said to Hu Zhi: "Now that the Shu Han's momentum has declined, if I lead an army to attack once, I will definitely be able to kill Huang Quan and occupy Hulao Pass!"
"Your Majesty, it's best to be careful!" Hu Zhi said, speaking from the bottom of his heart.
In the past three days, he saw with his own eyes that the King of Rencheng, Cao Zhangyi, risked his life to attack Hulao Pass without disarming his armor. Anyone who could do such a thing must be loyal to the Wei Dynasty and his Majesty.
people.
Cao Zhang and Cao Ziwen can truly be used by His Majesty.
Hu Zhi was proud and admired.
"Hahaha, I, Cao Zhang, have been able to defeat fierce tigers since I was a child. I have never been defeated in marches and battles. In front of me, I have been attacking Hulao Pass for three days and I am already in danger. This time, with a full blow, I will definitely be able to conquer the city and advance to Luoyang! Wende!
, I will meet you in the government office after I capture Hulao Pass!"
Cao Zhang laughed loudly, then hit the spear with his hand and shouted: "Brothers, follow me!"
After saying that, he took the lead and led five thousand soldiers to launch a fierce attack on Hulao Pass again.
At this time, there were only about two thousand Han soldiers in Hulao Gate, and they were so exhausted that they could hardly hold their swords and guns.
Huang Quan and Jufu stood at the pass, looking at the Wei army charging forward again and the giant man with a yellow beard leading the way, and couldn't help but have sharp eyes.
Huang Quan said: "Xiaoxing, it seems that today is the day when you and I will die!"
Jufu said: "It is Jufu's good fortune to be able to serve the country with General Zhendong together."
"I am deeply trusted by the late Emperor and His Majesty. I have long been determined to serve the country and die without regrets. It is a pity that you are young and will die on the battlefield!"
"A man died in battle and returned with his body wrapped in horse leather. He died a worthy death!"
Ju Fu said loudly!
"Okay! Then we will fight to the death with Cao Zhang!" Huang Quan shouted loudly, pressing the spear in his hand heavily to the ground!
"What's the matter with death? My General Zhendong wants to conquer Hebei and sweep through Liaodong. How can he say death so easily?"
A cheerful voice came from behind.
Huang Quan and Jufu were startled and hurriedly turned around, only to see a young general under twenty years old holding a spear and smiling at them. It was the Han Emperor Feng Zhou.
Behind him, elite soldiers continued to rush up the pass and towards the crenel mouth.
"Your Majesty!" Huang Quan and Jufu couldn't help but be overjoyed and bowed down quickly.
"Two generals, please rise. This is a war zone, so don't be too polite!" Feng Zhou helped them both up, walked to the crenel in a few steps, and looked outside.
In the distance, tens of thousands of troops were seen lined up in formation, ready to fight.
At the foot of the pass, five thousand warriors had already come to kill them. The leader among them was a sturdy man wearing heavy armor, holding a long spear, and a wisp of yellow beard.
Feng Zhou said: "Is he Cao Zhang?"
"Your Majesty, this person is Cao Zhang, the king of Rencheng in Cao Wei. In the past three days, he has killed seven generals of our Han army and hundreds of soldiers. General Jufu also almost died in his hands!" Huang Quan said hurriedly.
"Even Jufu is no match for him?"
Feng Zhou was slightly startled, and his evaluation of Cao Zhang's force was a little higher.
Jufu was a fierce general in the Han army, and his personal force was very good. He once fought against Wu Tong and Zhang Wen, and the outcome was indistinguishable.
You must know that Wu Tong and Zhang Wen were personally instructed by Feng Zhou, and they already have eight or nine points of Zhao Yun's martial arts at their peak. And this Jufu, who was born in Yeluzi, has actually practiced such advanced martial arts, which shows his strength.
And when such a fierce general met Cao Zhang on the battlefield, he was no match for him!
"It seems that the yellow-bearded boy is indeed so brave!" Feng Zhou said calmly, then raised his spear and shouted: "Brothers, repel the Wei army for me, and then we rush out of the pass and crush them completely!"
"No!" A burst of uniform shouts suddenly erupted above the pass.
But Huang Quan and Jufu were shocked: "Your Majesty, you will only bring this few people?"
Both of them had been leading troops for a long time. It could be seen at a glance that the number of Han soldiers who rushed to the city gate was only four or five hundred.
There were 4,000 to 5,000 men coming to kill them. Cao Zhang was the leader. These 4,000 to 5,000 men were not enough!
Feng Zhou laughed loudly: "Although there are many Wei troops, how can I take them seriously?"
He stood at the crenel, pointed at Cao Zhang, who had already rushed to the pass, and shouted: "Cao Ziwen, I wanted to fight you back in Yangping Pass, come on!"
The sound was like thunder and thunder, reaching the pass. Cao Zhang looked up and saw a young general holding a spear, pointing at him and shouting.
"Yang Ping Pass? How old are you!" Cao Zhang looked disdainful and ordered his soldiers to push up the siege ladder. He took the lead and galloped up, followed closely by dozens of elite soldiers.
"No matter who you are, I, Cao Zhang, will kill you with one shot!" Cao Zhang rushed to the city gate, brandished his spear, and killed the young general in front of him, shouting loudly.
"You are worthy of saying this!" Feng Zhou raised his gun to meet the enemy and hit him with one shot.
"boom!"
A sound of earth shattering suddenly exploded,
But there was the sound of two divine weapons colliding, and a powerful force suddenly spread out in all directions.
Countless pieces of earth and dust on top of the city rose up under the action of the air waves, covering the two of them.
But only for a moment.
Cao Zhang felt an incomparable force suddenly hit him. His hands shook wildly, and he could no longer hold the weapon. His body could not hold on anymore. He couldn't help but take a few steps back. Then he stepped lightly and started to fight.
Fell down from the city gate!
"Your Majesty!" Several fierce soldiers nearby shouted.
"Your Majesty!" Several fierce generals who were charging into the city also changed their expressions and shouted.
"Your Majesty!" In the distance, former general Hu Zhi, who was watching the battle, also changed his expression.
Cao Zhang, the invincible and invincible king of Rencheng, met the enemy face to face and was thrown into Hulao prison!
This thing is appalling!
At this time, Feng Zhou felt regretful:
"I didn't expect that I used a little more strength, but Cao Zhang didn't block him! Instead of catching him, I threw him to death. What a pity!"
At this time, the morale of the Han army officers and soldiers has been greatly boosted!
"Long live your Majesty! Long live your Majesty!"
Countless exhausted Han soldiers suddenly regained their fighting spirit, and with the addition of four hundred fresh troops, they were all high-spirited. Those who could fire three shots, fired five shots in a row, and those who could pull the bow string four times, shot six times in a row.
arrow!
More than 2,000 fierce soldiers defeated the advancing Wei soldiers from the pass in one fell swoop.
At this moment, a roar came from under the city gate: "Little Liu Chan, I'm looking down on you this time. Do you have the guts to rush out of the gate and fight me?" It was Cao Zhang's roar.
Feng Zhou looked down the city.
It turned out that after three days of fighting, there were already many corpses under the city. Although the weather was hot and the corpses had to be disposed of as soon as possible every day, the entire army was exhausted today and how could they have the strength to clean them up? Therefore, Cao Zhang fell on the pile of corpses and was not injured.
Feng Zhou laughed loudly: "I have come here with destiny. No matter how I fight you, I will definitely defeat you!"
Cao Zhang and Feng Zhou could look at each other for a moment, then suddenly turned around and mounted their horses, shouting: "Stop using your words and lead me to withdraw my troops. Then you can go out of the city and fight me! If you don't dare, then kneel down and surrender!"
"Haha, a defeated general dares to speak so loudly here!" Feng Zhou sneered, his voice echoing through the gates.
Everyone's expressions changed drastically.
Naturally, the morale of the Han army's officers and soldiers was greatly improved, but the morale of the Wei army's soldiers declined.
Fighting requires courage, and the commander is the courageous soul of the three armies.
Now, under the gaze of tens of thousands of people, Cao Zhang was defeated by the Han emperor in one move, and the morale of the two armies was naturally reversed.
At this time, Cao Zhang also knew that the soldiers were already a little frustrated and timid, so he snorted coldly, rode back to the army, and said: "Mingjin withdraws the troops, I will reorganize the army and fight again, and I swear to kill Liu Chan!"
