The opening of the Three Kingdoms inherits the bravery of the overlord of Chu

Chapter 124 The Battle of Xiaoguan
Li Jue, the guard of Xiaoguan, looked at the enemy army outside the pass with a heavy face, his face was full of clouds, and he was so tired that he couldn't stand up after resisting the enemy for three consecutive days.

The enemies outside the customs are like dog skin plasters, sticking to them all the time, continuously tackling key problems day and night, making people restless for a moment.

"General be careful!"

When Li Jue was in a trance, a stone bomb flew over suddenly, the lieutenant hurriedly used his body to block in front, and held up a large shield, barely resisting it.

"boom!"

The wooden shield split in two, making it unusable.

"damn it!"

Li Jue cursed, the stone bullets came here and there, and no one knew when they would come.

"General, when will our reinforcements arrive?"

The lieutenant asked softly, Xiaoguan only has 8000 defenders, if this stalemate continues, no one knows how long it will last.

"almost!"

Li Jue sighed, this battle was the most useless in his history, the enemy didn't touch a hair, but the defenders sacrificed a lot.

If the thieves attacked the pass by force, he could still use rolling stones and sharp arrows to kill them. But from the beginning, this group of thieves used extremely simple methods, that is, stone bombs during the day and kerosene bombs at night. Many soldiers died tragically. in.

But it was like this, which made him feel powerless and didn't know what to do. The former fan sent cavalry to rush out of the pass, intending to destroy the enemy's catapult.

Two thousand Flying Bears cavalry, gallantly and vigorously, charged towards the enemy. The horses were galloping, and the cold light was shining. Dong Zhuo's most elite cavalry, who had dominated Xiliang for nearly ten years, did not expect to enter the enemy's formation , it was completely messed up.

The enemy formation is like a roulette wheel, running round and round, with large shield soldiers resisting the enemy, spearmen attacking horses, and swordsmen attacking horse legs, layer by layer, matching each other, without any gap at all.

Immediately afterwards, an enemy cavalry with only a thousand men was dispatched, directly cutting off the flying bear army's retreat route. Under the attack from both sides, all two thousand flying bear troops died tragically on the spot, and none of them fled back to Xiaoguan.

Li Jue was closing the gate at that time, and witnessed everything that happened with his own eyes. Under the enemy's iron cavalry, the Flying Bear Jingqi seemed vulnerable, like paper, it would be broken with one stab, and when fighting the enemy's cavalry, only two back and forth , they completely collapsed and became a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

At this point, Li Jue no longer dared to attack rashly, but sent people to guard the gate tightly, and no one was allowed to go out to fight.

But in the past two days, the enemies outside the pass seemed to be plotting something again. The soldiers in the army kept digging the soil, and two small mounds had already been built up.

Li Jue wanted to send someone to spy on him, but even though he sent someone to sneak through the pass in the dead of night, he was still discovered by the enemy and ended up being shot and killed by random arrows.

"General, do you think the bandits are digging tunnels?"

The lieutenant said worriedly.

typical?

Li Jue turned pale with shock, leaned out quickly, and looked outside the pass, only to see a faint gully along the direction of the mound.

Li Jue thought about it for a while, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He exclaimed: "Nine times out of ten, the bandits are digging tunnels. We need to take extra precautions and prepare more fire oil everywhere. Once we find a dark hole for the bandits, burn them with fire."

"Send the order, strengthen the defense everywhere, prepare more patrol personnel, if there is any change, report it immediately!"

"promise!"

The lieutenant took the lead and left.

Yue Fei camp outside the pass.

The general Di Lei rushed in excitedly, and said: "General Qi, our tunnel has advanced another fifty steps, and we are only a hundred steps away from Xiaoguan. Breaking through Xiaoguan is just around the corner."

"it is good!"

Yue Fei nodded, got up and said: "Let the brothers work harder and try to get through to Xiaoguan as soon as possible."

"promise!"

Di Lei responded loudly and left happily.

Apart from Yue Fei, there was another person in the military tent, who kept his eyes closed and relaxed, it was Du Ruhui.

"Du Gong, although you are slow in digging underground tunnels, the victory lies in your ingenuity, but there is a fatal flaw. If the bandits in the pass prepare early, our army will suffer heavy losses."

Yue Fei said in a deep voice.

Du Ruhui slowly opened his eyes, and said with a smile: "General Yue Fei, our army dug deep tunnels day and night, and the piled up mound is as high as four people, like a small mountain. If the bandits are not blind, they will definitely know about it."

Yue Fei was stunned for a moment, then thoughtfully asked: "Du Gong, why do you continue to do it, isn't this a sheep going into a tiger's mouth!"

"Ha ha……"

Du Ruhui gave a long laugh, and said: "This is to let the guard Xiaoguan know, so that our army can take advantage of it."

"Appreciate further details!"

Yue Fei cupped his hands.

Du Ruhui continued to speak: "The so-called attacking by surprise is unexpected. The bandit army knows that our army is digging a tunnel, so they must take great precautions. The defense inside the pass must be stronger than the pass. Here, our army can take advantage of the situation, and send troops to sneak into the mountains on both sides late at night. , as a surprise soldier, waiting for the riots in the pass, waiting for an opportunity to fight out. Here, Dong Jun in the pass is busy dealing with our army's ambush, and Dong Jun who is closed is eager to fight against the main force of our army, and he is already powerless to resist this surprise soldier. People and horses attack Xiaoguan together, when the time comes, Xiaoguan will be in chaos."

Yue Fei had an epiphany, attack more, make the enemy overwhelmed, and win in this way.

Moreover, even if this plan is not successful, Zhao Feng's surprise army has not yet appeared, once the two armies join forces at Xiaoguan, the bandit army will be undefeated.

……

Inside the pass, in the dense forest fifty miles away from Xiaoguan, there is a cavalry force hiding here, and the leader is Zhao Feng.

"Brothers, take the time to rest. Tonight we will raid Xiaoguan, kill the enemy generals, and welcome the army to enter the pass."

Zhao Feng shouted in a deep voice.

It can be said that Zhao Feng's trip was a risky move, he only left Dianwei's hundred cavalry elite soldiers to create momentum and attract Dong Jun's main force, but in fact he made a lot of noise and attacked Xiaoguan all night, which is true.

"Please rest assured, general, even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire, the brothers will not back down half a step. The iron-blooded army swears to take Xiaoguan tonight."

Army Sima clapped his hands and replied.

"it is good!"

Zhao Feng gave a sigh of relief, and then shouted loudly: "A real man was born in the world, he should rise to the top and dare to be the first. You are all my brothers, and you can all be crowned kings and generals in the future."

"The general is mighty!"

Army Sima responded immediately, they were all summoned by Zhao Feng, and they were already filled with righteous indignation for what the dynasty did, and wished that Zhao Feng would become king now and set foot on the road to conquer the world.

"The general is mighty!"

A group of iron-blooded soldiers also responded in unison, their morale was greatly boosted, and the fatigue of the two days of rapid march disappeared.

At this moment, after the elite camp of the old Qin people, the hearts of the iron-blooded soldiers also ignited raging fire, and everyone's eyes were filled with infinite expectations.The time when Zhao Feng ruled the world was the time when they achieved success and fame. This desire will accompany them throughout their lives, and it will never change until death, and it will intensify.

Zhao Feng looked around in relief, his eyes swept over every iron-blooded soldier one by one, with such a heroic soldier, why not be afraid of not being able to conquer the world.
