Great Military Division

Chapter 204 Reinforcements are coming!Guangchengguan, a big victory!
Guangchengguan.

The smoke of gunpowder filled the air, and the war was raging.

It has been two full hours since Xu Rong and Lu Bu's soldiers and horses rushed to Guangcheng Pass.

During this period, only Zhang Liao led the cavalry to sneak around outside the city, lured the Bingzhou wolf cavalry away, and no more troops came to support them.

Xun Yu originally predicted that Guangcheng Pass could be held for at least two hours.

However, the Northern Army's attack was unexpectedly ferocious. Only two hours had passed, and the defense of Guangcheng Pass had become precarious.

Although Tang Xiang tried his best to fight.

But
The Northern Army's offensive never stopped, as fierce as it started.

Even if Tang Xiang exerted all his energy, it was still difficult to defeat him.

The rocks, rolling logs, and arrows were all exhausted, and even the small amount of kerosene in the camp was exhausted.

With no weapons in his hands, Tang Xiang could only order people to take their lives and guard Guangcheng Pass.

Clang!Clang!Clang!
Jin Ming exploded, sparks splashed.

On the top of the city, the soldiers of the infantry battalion opened a gap.

Holding the Huanshou knife, Tang Xiang led the soldiers and came to fight in person.

puff!
He killed a soldier with a knife, and the wound on his left arm hurt from the shock.

Tang Xiang gritted his steel teeth and was sweating all over. The severe pain made his body tremble like chaff.

snort!

snort!

Tang Xiang panted heavily.

At this moment, he seems to have reached the limit of his body.

After all, Tang Xiang was not good at martial arts at first, far inferior to generals in the army, and he was good at killing.

He just put all his strength into it, and at the cost of his life, he forcibly carried the Northern Army's attack.

"General, why haven't the reinforcements come yet?"

"Yes, General, if this continues, we will be wiped out."

Facing the worries of the soldiers beside him, Tang Xiang did not hesitate, and said sonorously: "Don't worry, they must have encountered something. If we persist, we will definitely be able to wait for reinforcements!"

"rest assured!"

Tang Xiang gritted his steel teeth, resisting the severe pain: "Even if I die, I, Tang Xiang, will definitely be with everyone."

If Tang Xiang hadn't gritted his teeth and stood firm at the city gate, the thousand soldiers in the city might not have survived until now.

It was precisely because they were moved by Tang Xiang's spirit that they would rather risk their lives and fight fiercely with the elite Northern Army until now.

"Damn it! I'm going to die together, fighting with these bastards."

"That's right! General Tang is risking his life, how can we be afraid of death!"

"Let's go together and drive them out."

"kill-!"

There was a thunderous cry of killing.

The defenders in the city rushed forward with their weapons in hand.

Even the elite of the Northern Army had no choice but to retreat and take a defensive position in the face of such a powerful charge.

puff!puff!
Kill the two defenders.

The only remaining three elite infantrymen at the top of the city were also stabbed to death at the top of the city by the spear.

Tang Xiang stepped forward slowly, and habitually turned on the chicken soup mode for the soul: "See if you don't see it, so what about the elite of the Northern Army? When the spear is poked on the body, it is still a transparent hole!"

"That's it!"

Tang Xiang gritted his teeth in pain, but his face was full of vigor. With such chicken soup for the soul, he looked mighty and domineering: "Let those guys see that our Guangcheng defenders are not so easy to bully."

"General, it's coming up over there again."

At this moment, a soldier pointed to the city head on the left and shouted loudly.

"go!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Tang Xiang swung his knife sharply: "Follow me and drive them out."

All the soldiers rushed forward, Tang Xiang reluctantly chased after him: "Kill!"

Such a scene, even Xu Rong under the city, couldn't help being moved by it.

Judging from the opponent's overall defensive rhythm, the commander was obviously an amateur. He hastily exhausted the defensive equipment, but he was rarely able to truly suppress the Northern Army's attack.

but
Even so, the Northern Army was still unable to reach the top of the city.

Because Xu Rong knew that the opponent was defending the city with his life, and unless he fought to the death, he must be delusional if he wanted to take this city.

"Good general!"

Even Xu Rong, who had experienced many battles, couldn't help nodding his head in secret praise.

Now, two hours have passed, and the opponent's cavalry was restrained by Lu Bu, but the infantry must be on their way back to the city.

The combat effectiveness of the Yueqi Battalion is incalculable when facing infantry.

Xu Rong is very clear about this.

Now he has become a lone army, if he wants to survive, he can only win Guangcheng Pass.

Therefore, no matter how much he admired Tang Xiang, the rhythm of the attack still did not slow down, and he still tried his best: "Quick! Keep going up, they can't hold it anymore, as long as we win Guangchengguan, we will win."

"kill-!"

Another group of soldiers and horses rushed to the city gate.

Xu Rong took a deep breath.

The decisive battle at Guangcheng Pass has come to the most critical time.

He has to persevere.

Clang!Clang!Clang!
Jin Ming exploded, shouting endlessly.

I don't know how long ago.

"Report—!"

"Report from the scouting horse ahead, a team of about a thousand people is rushing towards Guangcheng Pass."

"Which way?"

"The one on Niuzui Mountain."

"Understood, continue to inquire."

"promise."

"Han Sima, follow me to face the enemy, and the rest will continue to stand firm."

"promise."

Watching the Yueqiying go straight to Niuzuishan Road.

Xu Rong understood.

The first infantry rushed back to support, then the second, third, and fourth were also not far away.

This proves that the opponent's reinforcements have returned, but the strength of their feet is different, so the time to come to support is also somewhat different.

"attack!"

"Attack me!"

Even Xu Rong, who was always calm, couldn't help but feel anxious at this moment.

If he loses this battle, then he can only apologize with death.

*****
Niuzui Mountain, Guangcheng Pass.

Zhang Zhen, who rushed to support him in a hurry, is lining up.

Because, he clearly knew that once he made this opening, he would definitely usher in a strong offensive from the opponent.

The rattan player is in front, the spearman is behind, and the crossbowman is slowly following up, providing fire support at any time.

"Enter!"

Zhang Zhen holds a knife in one hand and a shield in the other.

He took the lead and was at the forefront of the team.

With such an arrangement of troops, if you want to persist for a long time, you can only rely on the soldiers and horses in the front row.

Therefore, he put himself at the forefront of the most dangerous, leading by example and boosting morale.

Roar!Roar!Roar!
The low roar of the team sounded out.

Under the leadership of Zhang Zhen, they slowly rushed out of the intersection.

as predicted!

A wave of arrow rain directly covered him.

Zhang Zhen ordered without hesitation: "Block!"

In an instant, the rattan players all raised their shields to cover the first two rows of soldiers. The team hadn't all walked out of the mountain pass yet, so the damage caused was not as great as imagined.

After a wave of arrows rained.

Zhang Zhen ordered again: "Come in!"

The team's footsteps were sonorous, and they followed up slowly.

The black cavalry rushed forward, and when they were about to collide with the team, Zhang Zhen ordered again: "Stab!"

The spearmen behind them aimed their spears at the cavalry one after another, and the three-foot-long spears protruded more than one foot out of the soldiers in the front row, like a hedgehog in a defensive state, always vigilant.

but
Yue Qiying is also not a fool.

Facing the dense defense of spears, they will not confront the enemy head-on, but when they are about to hit each other, they turn their horses around, divert left and right, and at the same time hold the bow and crossbow in their hands, stretching the full moon.

There are two cavalry in the Northern Army, Tunqi and Yueqi.

In fact, their functions are not the same.

In a sense, Tunqi is equivalent to heavy cavalry. Soldiers and horses fight in armor. They are slightly less maneuverable and good at charging; while Yueqiying is equivalent to light cavalry. Cavalry tactics are comparable.

Moreover, the Yueqi Battalion is the most elite soldiers and horses in the empire, each soldier is carefully selected, and each of them can ride a horse and shoot arrows, which is difficult even for Lu Bu's Bingzhou wolf cavalry.

therefore.

At the time of Guangcheng Pass.

The cavalry battalion led by Feng Yan was in charge of the charge, but the light cavalry led by Ma Hui had never been seen.

It was precisely because Xu Rong knew that the two teams had different characteristics, so he used them according to their abilities, and only sent Tunqi instead of Yueqi.

Now, Tunqi is gone, and the only way to get rid of it is to get rid of it.

And Yueqi has his own fighting style, and he will never rush straight into the enemy's formation foolishly.

They are better at roundabout combat, mainly attacking and killing with bows and crossbows. When the infantry system is broken and it is difficult to form an army formation, they will rush to harvest.

but
As a native of Yanmen County, Zhang Zhen is naturally very aware of Xianbei and Wuhuan's fighting methods.

When the opponent diverted left and right, twisted the bow and set the arrow, he immediately realized the mistake, and hurriedly shouted: "Changing the circle!"

The spear in his hand was raised high into the sky, and the rattan soldiers on both sides immediately rolled inward in an arc. The spearman moved accordingly and entered the combat position, and the crossbowmen rushed forward in an attempt to return to the center.

Such a quick response, and skillful evolution.

Even Ma Hui from Yueqiying couldn't help but be amazed by it.

He immediately realized that the opponent's general must be good at fighting, and this battle must not be underestimated.

"Hunting!"

One command.

Yue Qi, who were separated from the left and right, twisted their bows and arrows one after another, and launched an attack on Zhang Zhen's soldiers and horses.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
The arrows are chaotic, without rules.

Zhang Zhen raised his shield in his hand, not daring to relax.

But the opponent is condescending, only attacking and killing with arrows, and never rushes into the battle.

For a while, even Zhang Zhen had no better way.

In fact!
Zhang Zhen is clear.

The situation at this moment is like a small force meeting cavalry on the grassland.

Zhang Zhen can only use this method to try to delay the longest time, waiting for the reinforcements to arrive.

Once he can't bear his temper and wants to fight back, he will inevitably show his flaws, and the opponent will take the opportunity to break through and annihilate him in one fell swoop.

I have to admit that although Zhang Zhen is passive at the moment, it is currently the best way to deal with it.

"The crossbowmen fight back, and the rest stay in formation."

"Hold on, we will definitely win!"

"His Royal Highness' reinforcements will arrive immediately!"

"Be sure to hold on!"

"."

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
The crossbowmen in the formation fought back as much as possible.

However, their arrow level is far from that of Yue Qi.

The damage to Yueqiying was very, very small, only occasionally killing one person.

On the other hand, inside it, there are corpses scattered all over the place, it's hard to remember.

But as the scope becomes smaller, such battle damage is also getting smaller.

Both sides are in battle, constantly running in, seeking the best offensive and defensive posture.

Although Zhang Zhen has been in the predicament of being passive and beaten, his appearance is tantamount to a shot in the arm, allowing the defenders closed by Guangcheng to see the hope of victory again.

"Did you see it!"

Tang Xiang slashed an infantryman to death, raised his eyes and looked out of the city, and smiled in pain: "Our first support soldier has arrived, Your Highness has never given up on us."

"hold onto!"

Tang Xiang was hoarse, his face full of excitement: "Reinforcements will arrive later, everyone must persevere!"

The morale of all the generals soared, and they raised their weapons high, shouting: "Kill!"

At this moment, Xu Rong outside the city was even more worried. He cursed "Damn him" and pointed his sword at the top of the city: "Attack! Attack me! All charge up to me, Changshuiying, Sheshengying, all rushing forward!"

"kill-!"

The black soldiers and horses rushed to the city.

But in fact
Xu Rong knew very well that such a refueling tactic would not have any effect at all.

After all, there are only a few ladders, but there is only a small battle surface, and all the soldiers are piled up under the city, and they are just queuing up to climb.

The only thing that can be comforted may be that it has a certain deterrent effect on the psychology of the soldiers and horses in the city, but compared to the encouragement of the opponent's reinforcements, it still does not have much effect.

"Report—!"

"Report from the scouting horse ahead, a team of about a thousand people is rushing towards Guangcheng Pass."

"Which way?"

"The one at Laoyangpo."

"Understood, continue to inquire."

"promise."

"Li Sima, follow me to fight the enemy, and the rest will continue to stand firm."

"promise."

"Report—!"

"In the direction of Dafeng Mountain, there are soldiers and horses coming to support, with a strength of three thousand!"

"Lin Sima, go to fight."

"Report—!"

"In the direction of Waizui Mountain, two thousand soldiers and horses came to support them."

"Fight!"

Waves of soldiers and horses came to support.

In an instant, Guangcheng Pass entered a chaotic mode.

Although, when infantry collides with cavalry, they can basically only defend passively.

But all the soldiers fought with high spirits and encouraged each other. In terms of momentum, they completely crushed Yueqi.

Everyone is very sure that victory will belong to them.

"Hold on, our cavalry will be back soon."

"Victory must be ours!"

"The army will be here soon!"

"."

Time passed minute by minute.

The precarious Guangcheng Pass seemed to be wearing armor. No matter how hard the soldiers of the Northern Army attacked, they could not take it down.

However.
There are more and more soldiers and horses outside the city.

So much so that the Yueqi Battalion had thousands of fine cavalry, and it was difficult to besiege them. They could only rely on super high mobility, mainly to attack and kill with bows and arrows, and forcibly resist the opponent's attack.

However, with the increase in the number of infantry, they moved forward slowly on the defensive, trying to compress the movement space of the Yueqi Battalion as much as possible, and there was a faint threat of encircling it.

at last!

The cavalry who charged out from the direction of Shanyangao became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Although there are only a thousand of them, their combat power is extremely strong, and they rush forward like a huge wave.

The Yueqi Battalion, which had no organizational system at all, was rushed by Zhang Liao, Sun Jian, and Liu Chong on horseback. It fell apart and fell apart in an instant, without even a chance to fight back.

Under the banner of the big banner outside the city is Xu Rong, the commander of the Northern Army.

Zhang Liao picked up his horse lance, charged straight at him, and roared like thunder: "Zhang Liao of the Yanmen is here, take his life!"
