Xiliang Iron Cavalry

() Seeing Jia Rong getting up to leave, Zang Ba struggled to get up and see him off, but Jia Rong pressed him on the bed again. <-"

"General Zang's injury must be healed!" Jia Rong ordered in a low voice.

Although Zang Ba was not highly valued in the Dong army, he was always a general promoted by Ding Yuan. He had a certain prestige in the Bingzhou army. Grateful, Zang Ba didn't have any feelings for Dong Zhuo, so he couldn't talk about the kindness of knowing him, and changing his family was a matter of course.

Cao Xing snorted coldly, and muttered: "Fake benevolence and righteousness!" Looking at Zang Ba also contained a trace of resentment.

Jia Rong's behavior was contrived in the eyes of Dong Jun's generals, but Jia Rong won the hearts of most of Dong Jun's soldiers. After such a long cooperation, Dong Jun's treatment of Xiliang Army has long been heard. Three, six, nine classes, different treatment, different clothing, different military pay and rights, all kinds of rules were spread in Hulao Pass through the mouths of Xiliang Army soldiers.

Many soldiers even let Dong Jun's soldiers see their ranks. In the Xiliang Army, this is also an honor.

What Dong Jun's soldiers yearn for even more is that every soldier in the Xiliang Army is registered, including all the information of the soldiers. They don't think about death in battle at all. Jia Rong will arrange everything by himself. This is subtle Trust is like on the battlefield, Jia Rong can make the Xiliang army rush forward with just a word without too many words.

Seeing all this, Zhang Liao was extremely anxious. While reporting everything in front of him to Luoyang, he continued to win over the army and comfort the wounded soldiers and low-level generals. With the cooperation of Li Su, Niu Fu, Fan Chou and others, there was not much trouble, but The various soldiers of the Xiliang Army will not forget that the reason they are able to stay safely in the Dong Army now is because the time is not enough.

Outside Hulao Pass, Cao Cao looked at the scene of the allied camp, and couldn't help but feel anxious. Although the Allied forces suffered heavy losses, the defenders at Hulao Pass were not much worse. The prison must be broken.

A slap can't be made, and there are not many princes with fighting spirit in the center of the allied army.

"Report, General, Pingjin Pass was breached by the Allied forces, General Dong Jun Li Cui was defeated and returned to Luoyang."

Even though he was mentally prepared, Jia Rong still frowned. Pingjin was breached, which meant that the princes outside the pass could directly approach Luoyang City, losing the meaning of continuing to defend Hulao Pass.

"Understood, step back." Jia Rong said lightly.

Jia Rong had already got the news through Jia Xu, but the generals in the pass just got it.

The generals under the tent started to discuss buzzingly, Pingjin was breached, the news was like a bolt from the blue.

Zhang Liao took a step forward and said: "General Jia, if the princes break through Pingjin, they can directly attack Luoyang city. If Luoyang is destroyed, our army will be in danger. Please, general, make a decision and return to Luoyang."

Jia Rong didn't like it. Zhang Liao's words seemed polite, not much different from ordering himself. He didn't like this feeling very much.

Zhao Yun shouted: "Our army was ordered by the emperor to guard Hulao Pass. If the Holy Majesty has not ordered it, how can we lightly talk about retreating?"

Among the eight passes, Hulao Pass does not have the largest number of troops, but it has the strongest combat effectiveness.

Jia Rong stretched out his hand to silence the discussion of the generals in the tent, and said slowly: "Luoyang City has a high wall and thick walls, even if the allied army has tens of thousands of troops, it will not be captured easily. If our army retreats, Hulao Pass will definitely be destroyed The emptiness, the princes took advantage of the emptiness to enter, and the forces of the two sides joined forces in Luoyang, and then the danger came."

Zhang Liao was horrified. He didn't expect Jia Rong to analyze the situation so clearly, and since Jia Rong got the news, he just frowned. This kind of mentality of Taishan collapsed and his face remained unchanged did not exist in Zhang Liao's Ding Yuan. See you.

"The princes outside the pass will definitely attack the city after receiving the news that Pingjin has been breached. You need to work together to impress the princes outside the pass so that they dare not underestimate the strength of our army, and it is not too late to discuss the retreat!" Jia Rong said impassionedly.

Lu Bu, Zhao Yun, and other generals of the Xiliang Army all made promises, and General Dong Jun was also very excited. Hulao Pass has been replenished and is unbreakable. Giving up for no reason is equivalent to destroying the results of previous efforts. There is a little bit of unwillingness in his heart.

Seeing that the army's spirit was available, Li Su winked at General Dong Jun and acquiesced to Jia Rong's approach.

The princes from all walks of life got the news of the destruction of Pingjin one after another, and the entire Allied camp cheered. Since the beginning of the army, the Allied army has been invincible. The counties and counties along the way learned that the arrival of the army all evaded, but unexpectedly, they were blocked by the small Hulaoguan. All the princes had a little bit of anger in their hearts, but the anger collapsed in front of the powerful combat power of the Xiliang Army, just like a Siberian tiger that a vicious dog saw was as docile, wishing to stick the tiger's butt with the dog's face.

After Yuan Shao said a lot about the big tent of the Chinese army, he said in a loud voice: "Pingjin is destroyed, Dong thief will undoubtedly die. Tomorrow, everyone will work together to break through the Hulao pass, and the soldiers will come to Luoyang."



Cao Cao explained to the crowd: "The Allied troops are approaching Luoyang, and the defenders in the pass will definitely lose their fighting spirit and their morale will be low."

At this time, the princes were in a state of excitement, and they all agreed. In their view, if Pingjin was broken, Dong Zhuo would definitely transfer the defenders of Hulao Pass back to Luoyang. Down.

On the second day, the sky was a little gloomy, and Yangguan hid in the dark clouds, as if he didn't want to see the scene of Hulaoguan.

The fighting spirit of the princes is high, but the soldiers are still afraid of Hulao Pass. In the previous battle, countless soldiers were injured. Many soldiers died in pain due to lack of treatment. However, in the eyes of all soldiers, it is unattainable.

The drums sounded, and the only three wells left in the allied army slowly moved towards Hulao Pass.

Hulao was closed with knives and guns, and morale was like a rainbow. It seemed that they had not received the news that Pingjin Pass had been breached. They were noncommittal when Yuan Shao sent soldiers shouting slogans outside the pass to surrender and not to kill.

Jia Rong stood proudly on the city wall, holding the green sword in his hand, and looked at the densely packed coalition soldiers outside the pass calmly.

"Let go!" Jia Rong gave an order, closing the arrows that were fired first, which were fired from the huge bed crossbow, roaring and heading towards the densely packed coalition soldiers, each arrow penetrated at least three soldiers, and the three well rails Creaking and creaking, two fell down, and the high-spirited princes seemed to be strangled by an invisible hand, and the resistance in Hulao Pass was even fiercer than before.

Compared to the tens of thousands of coalition forces, these dead soldiers are nothing, but the soldiers around who witnessed this scene were afraid of the crossbow arrows that looked like babies' arms. .

After the bed crossbow, there is a cross attack of crossbow arrows and bows and arrows. The closed soldiers sway their arrows to their heart's content. The three-stage attack makes the attacking side be threatened by the city at all times. Occasionally, the bed crossbow &#xis&#; Blood, create a battlefield bloody case.

Before approaching the city wall, thousands of Allied soldiers were killed or injured.

Cao Cao glanced at the battle situation in the distance, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh. The fighting spirit of the defenders was higher than before&#x

The high-spirited and low-spirited coalition soldiers couldn't attack at all, and it only increased casualties. The awe of Jia Rong once again increased by more than one level. With the powerful cavalry and countless defensive methods, Cao Cao had a feeling that if the coalition forces could not defeat Jia Rong this time, Jia Rong is completely wiped out and will become the enemy of everyone in the future.

The boulders and boiling oil were poured down desperately, and the resistance suffered by the Allied forces was stronger than ever before.

The sun slowly revealed half of his face from the dark clouds, &#x looked at it carefully, and then walked out with confidence, leaving behind the densely packed corpses of the coalition soldiers in the prison. #x, although the princes from all walks of life have intentions, but the soldiers under their command are not desperate, the three wells are all destroyed, and the only way for the Allied forces to attack the city is the crowd tactics.

After winning the victory and counting the losses, Jia Rong began to arrange for the defenders to retreat to Luoyang.

It is impossible for Jia Rong to just give up Hulao Pass to the princes for nothing, and he will definitely keep the defenders. Regarding the question of keeping the generals, there was a dispute between the Xiliang Army and Dong Jun, and no one wanted to stay to know what would happen in Luoyang. Situation, stay close to death.

Fan Chou and Niu Fu, as an old general in Dong Junzhong, will naturally not be left to guard Hulao Pass. The rest are only Zhang Liao, Hao Meng, Cao Xing and other generals who have just joined Bingzhou. Li Su's position in the army is beyond the capabilities of these generals Shocked, but Li Su handed over this tricky matter to Zhang Liao.

"General Zhang, in your opinion, which general should be left behind to guard Hulao Pass?" Niu Fu turned to look at Zhang Liao and asked.

Zhang Liao looked at the generals on the left and right, and suggested that General Zang Ba be left to guard Hulao Pass. General Zang Ba is a steady man, and Hulao Pass is a big pass. The princes are already afraid of being beaten, so they will not talk about war lightly. "

Hao Meng and Cao Xing agreed again and again, as long as they were not left to guard the gate, it would be fine.

"I agree with General Zhang." Hao Meng and Cao Xing looked at each other and said in unison.

Niu Fu nodded and said: "Since that's the case, let General Zang Ba stay at Hulao Pass with a thousand troops. This general will definitely ask for credit for General Zang in front of the Grand Master."

A look of schadenfreude flashed in Hao Meng's eyes. The princes outside the pass had tens of thousands of soldiers, leaving a thousand defenders behind. It was obvious that they wanted to punish Zang Ba. He thought of Jia Rong's special visit to Zang Ba a few days ago, and the feelings of the generals present As a matter of course, he secretly rejoiced that he did not show his favor to the Xiliang army without short-sightedness.

Unlike Dong Jun, when Jia Rong told the story in the Xiliang Army, it immediately attracted fierce competition from the generals present, and everyone wanted to stay.

Jia Rong thought for a long time, then said slowly: "Brother, how about I want to leave you and Hua Xiong Li Shun to guard Hulao Pass?" The old partner is now, and the two of them are naturally foolproof when they cooperate. With Li Shun's trap, it can be said to be a perfect combination for defending the city.

Ask for red.
