The Power of the Three Kingdoms at the End of the Han Dynasty and the Imperial Power of the Han Dyna

Chapter 62 Bloody Yanmen Pass ([-])

“The royal court was burned by the Han”

"Boom!"

After hearing this, Tan Shihuai felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his mind was in chaos, and he was a little unsteady for a moment.

"what!"

"My tribe!"

"Damn Chinese!"

"Go back quickly!"

"."

When the tribal leaders heard the news, they immediately exploded.Danhan Mountain was home to their tribe and their treasures. At this moment, they were so anxious that they wished they had wings and could fly back to take a look.

"Shut up!"

Tan Shihuai roared, immediately quelling the noisy scene.Now, he finally understood what Liu Han's purpose was.

The little wolf cub is so ruthless in his calculations!
Originally, Tan Shihuai thought that Liu Han's avoidance of fighting at first was just to consume Tan Shihuai's southward march. The longer the delay, the more dangerous the tens of thousands of troops would be. Therefore, Tan Shihuai immediately chose to retreat when he saw that the attack on the city was disadvantageous. Regroup.

However, I never expected that this little wolf cub was really big-hearted. He was indeed trying to hold him back, but his purpose was not to encircle and annihilate him, but to buy time for the Han army to sneak attack Shan Yuting, so that he could not attack for the first time. At this time, reinforcements were sent back. According to this time, this Han army, which had penetrated deeply alone, should have returned to Han Dynasty. It would be extremely difficult to pursue them again.

I came to Han to harvest grass and grain, but after half a month, not only did I not catch anything, I also lost my home!

Thinking of this, Tan Shihuai, a man in his 40s, shed tears of sadness in front of so many people. The wolf king of the grassland was led step by step by that little wolf cub because he was careless and underestimated the enemy. What a shame and humiliation!

"In the heaven of immortality, I, Tan Shihuai, swear here that if I don't avenge this, I swear that I won't be a human being!"

Tan Shihuai turned grief and anger into strength and successfully infected everyone. They also swore to the Immortal Heaven here that they would not be human unless they took revenge.

Then, no matter what the weather was like, they jumped on their horses and whipped their whips, heading towards Danhan Mountain.

At Yanmen Pass, Han Dang led two thousand defenders to wait for the enemy here.

Yanmen Pass is one of the important passes in the Han Dynasty. The history of this pass can be traced back to the Warring States Period. It was once the main border pass between the Central Plains Dynasty and the northern nomads.

Yanmen Pass has a unique geographical location. The Yanmen Mountain where it is located is a north-south mountain range. The peaks on both sides of the pass are towering into the clouds and the terrain is steep. Therefore, the pass is the lowest point of the mountain and the only access point.The steep peaks on both sides of the pass form a natural barrier.Although it is not as majestic as the sword pavilion and can be blocked by one man, it is still very difficult to attack.

According to the plan, Xu Rong and Huang Zhong had succeeded at this time and were on their way back. If the enemy wanted to return to Danhan Mountain as quickly as possible, they would have to pass by this place. Otherwise, Qiang Yin would have to go a long way and walk for three days. For those here, this is the best news.

Suddenly, there were flashes of fire in the distance, and the earth trembled, as if a large group of cavalry were coming.

Han Dang looked calm and said, "Get ready!" Although he was a little surprised, it was getting late now. Logically speaking, such a large-scale night march was a taboo for military strategists. However, the more anxious Tan Shihuai was to rush back, the less he could do so easily. Let him go back.

Even if he was anxious to go back to celebrate the New Year, he still wanted to leave something behind.

"Fire arrows!"

A sudden blocking battle started in an instant.

The 2000 people in the lead of Xianbei were instantly killed by sudden arrows, and the [-] riders in front died.

This news reached Tan Shihuai's ears, and Tan Shihuai couldn't sit still for a moment. There was no ambush here when he came, but there was one when he left. This shows that the little wolf cub has even planned his own retreat.

His face was pressed to the ground and rubbed again and again. His anger and desire to return home made Tan Shihuai lose his last sanity, "Send the order, use all your strength to open Yanmen, day and night."

"Here, Great Chanyu."

The special terrain of Yanmen Pass means that the attacking Xianbei people can only charge forward with a few hundred people, and they cannot start a wheel battle at all. However, Han Dang has already been well prepared and divided into four groups, with 500 people in each group, waiting to work. Although It's hard to see clearly at night, but the enemy has no chance of attacking.

The battle lasted all night, and the Xianbei people had launched more than a dozen waves of attacks, but all of them failed in the end.

The next morning, looking at the rising sun, Tan Shihuai was anxious.

This is the 15th day of the march south. If not for the [-] warriors killed in the battle before, the army will be out of food as soon as today is over. If calculated according to this calculation, the army's food and grass will only be enough to last four days.

This side of Yanmen is the nearest road. If you open Yanmen, you can reach Danhan Mountain in another day. However, the Han army guarding Yanmen has made it clear that they want to delay them and attack them regardless of the cost. If we can't defeat them, when our army's food and fodder are cut off, the little wolf cub behind will definitely lead people to pounce on them, and the hope of returning will be slim.

If he took a detour to Qiangyin, he could indeed go back, but the Han army would definitely block him at every step along the way. Tan Shihuai could already see that the road back in the future would be a bloody road made by tribesmen piled with corpses.

"Damn!"

Tan Shihuai paced back and forth in the temporary tent when Que Ju came in and said, "Chanyu, I'm calling from behind. The cavalry of Little Wolf Cub has arrived in Qiangyin, less than forty miles away from us."

Tan Shihuai walked towards the map with a gloomy expression, "The Han people deserve to die!"

Liu Han's 1 cavalrymen were hanging Tan Shihuai behind them. It felt like there was a Sword of Damocles hanging above their heads. The pressure on Tan Shihuai at this moment was not ordinary. He had to divide his troops to deal with unknown situations. When his cavalry was to be attacked from behind, he would send heavy troops to attack Yanmen Pass with all his strength. However, after losing so many people in Yanmen, Tan Shihuai had to be careful in employing people.

At this moment, at the Yanmen garrison, the Xianbei troops were not afraid of death and came like a tide. They rode fast horses and held long knives in their hands. They charged menacingly towards Yanmen Pass. They rushed to the bottom of the city and immediately dismounted and established positions for the Yanmen Pass. Those who followed up made preparations for the attack. After days of siege fighting, the Xianbei people gradually figured out methods.

The defenders stood high on the pass and used strong bows, crossbows, rolling logs and stones to resist the enemy's attack.The attackers had been repulsed countless times, and many of them had no strength in their arms to hold their bows and shoot arrows.

In this way, regardless of casualties and constant attacks, the Xianbei people broke through the first line of defense and rushed to Guancheng.The defenders began to fight with the Xianbei people at close range. They brandished swords and guns and engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat with the enemy. They fought with each other inextricably and defended Yanmen Pass with their flesh and blood. They did not take a step back, even if the enemy broke through a certain road. When the defense line is up, they will also quickly organize a new line of defense to continue to resist the enemy's attack.

In this way, the two sides fought fiercely all day and night. As night fell, the fighting came to a brief stagnation, and both sides were able to take a brief breather.
