Chapter 460: Bai Qi's First Battle
"Zhang Liang, you are right, I am a sinner through the ages."

Xiang Yu said with a look of remorse, then suddenly got up and walked out the door.

"Boy, why are you going?" Nan Hua asked.

Xiang Yu turned around and bowed his hands in a salute, "Thank you, senior, for clearing up the confusion for the younger generation. I lost the second gate in the southeast of Sizhou, and now I'm going to atone for my sins."

Seeing this, Guiguzi said lightly, "Boy, it's a certainty that the Yellow Turbans will suffer this defeat, and it can be resolved without human power. Besides, given your current situation, if you continue to be stubborn, you will die if you don't enter Luoyang."

Xiang Yu was silent for a moment when he heard the words, and Guiguzi continued: "Take care of this injury first, the Yellow Turbans will be defeated, but they will not die. You have a chance to atone for your sins."

The struggle in Xiang Yu's eyes flickered, and then he asked, "Senior, you save the junior, but something is holding you back?"

Guiguzi glanced at Xiang Yu, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "You will know it when you get there."

------

Daguguan, as a bridge between Sizhou and Yanzhou, played a decisive role in this battle.

Before the Battle of Han River began, Zhang Liao led an army of [-] people to bypass the Hulao Pass and attacked Dagu Pass from behind.

Dagu Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are [-] defenders in the pass, so Zhang Liao must be caught off guard by the enemy before he can capture the pass in one fell swoop.

Zhang Liao originally thought that he could take Daguguan in one fell swoop, but who thought he would encounter an opponent this time,

After a short period of chaos, the gatekeeper of Dagu quickly commanded the entire army to stabilize and stabilize, and then persisted until dawn.

When the sneak attack failed, Zhang Liao could only choose to conduct a strong attack. His strength was five times that of the defenders, and there were many generals accompanying the army, so the strong attack was not impossible.

Unexpectedly, Daguguan's defending general's ability to defend the city is quite good. Zhang Liao personally directed the attack for two days. Even Ran Min, Xu Huang, Yu Jin and other generals participated in the siege, but they were still blocked by the defender. .

Looking at the yellow turban guards on the city tower, Zhang Liao's eyes were full of fear, and then he said to the left and right: "Pass the order, Ming Jin withdraws his troops."

One sneak attack and two days of strong attack, the Han army has lost [-] soldiers, but Daguguan is still as stable as a rock.

If Daguguan was not captured before the Yellow Turban reinforcements arrived, the loss of troops would be second, affecting the situation of the dragon, and Zhang Liao would not be able to atone for his sins even if he died.

Ran Min's body was covered in blood, and after striding into the tent, he pleaded guilty with a face of shame: "I am ashamed at the end, but I still failed to capture Daguguan."

Zhang Liao hurriedly stepped down from the main seat, lifted Ran Min up, and said solemnly: "Don't blame the general, the yellow turban is really too tenacious in this pass."

"But at this rate, how can I represent the host?" Ran Min asked anxiously.

With Ran Min's force, apart from Xiang Yu, there is no opponent in the Yellow Turbans. Qin Hao also made sure to capture Daguguan, so he transferred Ran Min to Zhang Liao.

The Daguguan Yellow Turbans' will to defend the city is quite tenacious, and Daguguan's generals obviously know how powerful Ran Min is. Every time Ran Min ascends the city, he will be met with a sea of ​​people and arrow rain tactics.

In order to suppress Ran Min and other generals, the Yellow Turbans even shot themselves, which barely offset the gap between the generals.

After hearing what Ran Min said, Zhang Liao also had a sad look on his face. He really met his opponent this time, but it didn't mean that Zhang Liao would give up.

"Wait for the arrival of the fortified troops at Hulao Pass and continue to attack. By the way, have you figured out who the enemy defender is?"

Of the [-] troops hidden in Xuanyuan Pass, Qin Qiong only took [-], while Zhang Liao had a full [-].

The reason why Qin Hao arranged this was because Zhang Liao not only wanted to attack Daguguan, but also resisted the double-sided counterattacks of Sizhou and Yanzhou after he was defeated.

Qin Hao never expected that Zhang Liao's [-] elite army, along with Ran Min and other generals, would not capture Daguguan, which only had [-] defenders, under the sneak attack.

If the first step has not been carried out, how will the subsequent plan be carried out?

Of course, this is not to say that Zhang Liao's ability is not good, but the Yellow Turban guard of Daguguan is indeed quite powerful.

"General Qi, I have figured out that the Dagu gatekeeper is named Zhu Wenzheng, and he is a general under the new Yellow Turban commander Zhu Yuanzhang."

"Zhu Wenzheng?" Zhang Liao frowned slightly and laughed at himself: "If I didn't do it, Zhang Liao would have suffered a big loss from an unknown soldier."

Zhang Liao has no impression of Zhu Wenzheng, but if Qin Hao was there, he would definitely exclaim: Why is this guy here?

Zhu Wenzheng was a famous defender in the early Ming Dynasty. In the "Battle of Hongdu", Zhu Wenzheng sat in the isolated city and resisted the attack of Chen Youliang's 60 troops. It can be called a miracle in military history.

An army of 60 could not attack Hongdu, which Zhu Wenzheng was defending, but now he was guarding Dagu Pass, which was easier to defend and harder to attack. Zhang Liao wanted to use [-] troops to conquer it, and the difficulty can be imagined.

Zhu Yuanzhang is still in Hangu Pass, but Zhu Wenzheng is in Dagu Pass. This is the biggest variable in the situation of the trapped dragon.

"Report... General Qi, Vice-General Bai is back."

Zhang Liao was overjoyed and quickly said, "Quick, let him in."

Lieutenant General Bai is the person Tu Baiqi, and the system implanted his godhood for him. After Qin Qiong left the broken army camp, he became Zhang Liaoxin's lieutenant colonel.

Zhang Liao also knew that Bai Qi was a member of the Qin family, and both the lord and the young master valued him very much. He came to break the barracks just to gild them, so naturally he would not treat Bai Qi as a general general.

Bai Qi also quickly conquered Zhang Liao with his own abilities, so Zhang Liao was so happy when he heard that Bai Qi was up.

Bai Qi is a man with a strong face and a burly stature from Guanxi. After seeing Bai Qi's entry, Zhang Liao immediately smiled and asked Bai Qi, "Brother Bai, you can come, how is the line of defense at Hulao Pass? already?"

After hearing Zhang Liao's name, a hint of helplessness flashed in Bai Qi's eyes.

Zhang Liao called Brother Bai Qi because he admired his ability, but Bai Qi didn't dare to call his boss brother directly.

"General Qi, the last commander used the Hulao Pass site to set up three lines of defense, and left another [-] troops. If you want to stay there for three months, it shouldn't be a problem." Bai Qi said respectfully.

The ranks in the army are quite strict. Before the position was higher than Zhang Liao, Bai Qi did not dare to break it without authorization.

Only then did Zhang Liao understand the intention of burning down Hulao Pass. If he had not burned it when he abandoned the pass, he would be attacking Hulao Pass now.

The danger level of Hulao Pass is still higher than that of Dagu Pass. Zhang Liao has not even captured Dagu Pass, let alone the more difficult Hulao Pass.

Zhang Liao's task was to block Sizhou's food supply, and it was impossible to use all his troops on the storm, because the casualties were too great to resist the Yellow Turbans' counterattack.

Zhang Liao wanted to limit the casualties to less than [-], so that an army of [-] would be able to resist the double attack of Sizhou and Yanzhou.

But now eight thousand soldiers have been lost, and Daguguan is still a long way off, and the next step is obviously a hard battle.

After repeated discussions, Zhang Liao and other generals did not think of a way other than a strong attack. Bai Wei took the initiative to stand up and said: "General, give the last general an army of [-], and they will capture Daguguan in one day."

"Oh?" A hint of doubt flashed in Zhang Liao's eyes. He didn't understand where Bai Qi's confidence came from, so he asked, "Brother, do you have any good ideas?"

Bai smiled but didn't answer, and then said confidently: "The last general originally issued a military order."

"Okay, I will give you [-] troops."

Half a day later, Daguguan was captured by Bai Qi, and Zhu Wenzheng led hundreds of remnants of the army to flee to Luoyang, and Bai Qi's reputation began to emerge.

 One update arrives, and the second one will be posted at night.
