Three Kingdoms Bandits

Chapter 454 Bloody Battle Meridian Valley
The Yuan-Cao coalition forces captured Hangu Pass by surprise. Although they paid a high price, they still made a profit when Hangu Pass changed hands.

Losing Hangu Pass, the Wuling Army has no danger to defend.Zhang Xiong is leading the remnants of the White Tiger Army and Wei Yan's Qinglong Army to fight against Yuan Cao's coalition forces in Chang'an.

In order to ensure the safety of Hanzhong and Yizhou, Zhang Xiong asked Shi Zhongyu to guard Ziwu Valley to prevent the coalition forces from entering Hanzhong.With the Qinglong cavalry, they can restrain Yuan Cao's coalition forces and prevent them from dividing their troops easily.

There is another benefit for the Canglang Army to guard Meridian Valley.That is when the reinforcements come, they can directly support Chang'an from Meridian Valley.

How could Cao Cao and Yuan Shao not seize such an important channel?

When the Canglang Army moved forward, the Yuan-Cao coalition army dispatched 4 horses headed by Cao Ren and Yan Liang to take Ziwu Valley to resist the reinforcements of the Wuling Army.

Chang'an City, an ancient city that was already dilapidated, was once again mercilessly baptized by the flames of war.

Zhang Xiong and Wei Yan stood at the top of the city, looking at the retreating coalition forces with serious expressions.

"Wen Chang, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao suddenly launched an attack, the White Tiger Army was unable to defend, and Hangu Pass was lost. Now we can only rely on the Qinglong Army to contain them, and the White Tiger Army will stick to Chang'an, waiting for the elder brother to come to help."

In such a large Chang'an area, the Wuling Army has only 3 horses.Faced with the pressure of more than [-] horses from Yuan Cao's coalition forces, they could only defend the city.

"Second brother, as long as there is one person in the Azure Dragon Legion, we will never make it easier for them."

Wei Yan said viciously.

Defending the city, the cavalry can't help much.But with them cruising outside the city, the coalition forces did not dare to attack the city with all their strength.

After the Qinglong cavalry's light and flexible characteristics were brought into play, the coalition forces had nothing to do with them.Cao Cao sent out his elite tiger and leopard cavalry, but in the open environment, the tiger and leopard cavalry were always led by the nose by the Qinglong cavalry.

Yuan Shao also had cavalry under his command, but they all ended in failure against the Qinglong cavalry.Fortunately, they have a large number of coalition troops, so they don't care about the loss.

The coalition forces are grouped together, and Wei Yan has nothing to do with them.This time the coalition forces are coming fiercely, and they have the meaning of a showdown with Yizhou.

"As long as Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are firmly held back, and they are not allowed to enter Hanzhong, when the reinforcements arrive, it will be time for us to take revenge."

The White Tiger Army lost more than half, but still failed to hold the Hangu Pass.This is a merciless mockery for the Baihuying who just won the title of the first regiment of the Wuling Army.For Zhang Xiong personally, it was also a blow to the head.

How about the first general?What about the First Legion?It's not like someone breaks through the pass, and you lose your troops and lose your generals!

"Now I'm afraid that the stinky stone won't be able to hold Ziwu Valley, and the lord will not come to help."

Wei Yan expressed his concern.The Cangwolf Legion is good at mountain warfare, but it is actually not good at fighting tough battles head-on.The wolf army usually gathers together while roaring, and leaves after fighting.Rarely does frontal resistance.

"With Xu Yuanzhi in Hanzhong, even if Ziwu Valley is lost, the coalition forces will be stopped if they hit Hanzhong at most, and they will not be able to threaten Yizhou."

For Xu Shu's ability, Zhang Xiong is 1 rest assured.They rose together from the humble beginnings, and Zhang Xiong believed in Xu Shu's ability to hold Hanzhong.

"The wolf army may suffer a lot of losses. This should not be their responsibility."

Zhang Xiong blamed himself a little.

The loss of Hangu Pass by the White Tiger Legion led to this series of consequences.If Hangu Pass is still there.The big deal is that the Wuling Army and the Allied Forces competed around Hangu Pass.

It's a pity that the coalition forces have already entered the territory of Yizhou.The Wuling army has a lot to do.On the one hand, we must resist and counterattack the coalition forces.On the other hand, it is necessary to be prepared for other emergencies that may go into battle.

In Ziwu Valley, Shi Zhongyu set up a card to guard against danger, and the morale of the [-] Canglang Army was very high.Facing the Yuan-Cao coalition forces, they were not cowardly, but only had the high spirit of fighting bravely to kill the enemy.

So what if you're not good at frontal defense?Wuxi boys are never afraid of sacrifice!
The [-] coalition troops have already arrived at Meridian Valley, so they are indeed on guard.Cao Ren knew that it was impossible to quickly pass through Ziwu Valley.However, in order to expand the effect, the Ziwu Valley must be opened up. After entering Hanzhong, the coalition forces will have an overall advantage.

At that time, the princes and gentry who were watching would stand up and attack Yizhou.

"General, the bandit army is coming!"

Sha Moke gripped the weapon tightly, and couldn't wait any longer.

"Lao Sha, our mission is to defend Meridian Valley."

Shi Zhongyu reminded.

He was afraid that Sha Moke would kill too crazy for a while, forgetting the business of their wolf army.

"Don't worry, General. I, Lao Sha, know the severity. I just want to see if Cao Jun is as strong as he said in the rumors."

Sha Moke's voice was very loud. At this time, he needed to cheer up the Wuxi warriors.

"Haha, in terms of strength, who can be stronger than my Wuling army? The Yuan-Cao coalition army, hum! It just depends on the number of people."

Shi Zhongyu was very upset.Taking advantage of Zhang Xiong's absence, the coalition forces raided Hangu Pass with heavy troops.So much so that the White Tiger Legion failed to defend most of their losses.

"Look! The thieves are coming! Brothers, are you ready to make meritorious deeds?"

Shamoko yelled.

The coalition soldiers have already come to this side.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Wuxi warriors are the toughest in battle.In the White Tiger Camp, there are many talents who have emerged from here.

"Fire arrows!"

When the enemy entered the range, Shi Zhongyu ordered decisively.The arrow shot out, directly shooting down a large number of enemies.

On the coalition side, Yan Liang led the attack, relying on the large number of people, it was unreasonable to charge.The long-range attack of the Cangwolf Legion couldn't stop the attack of the coalition forces one after another.

"Brothers, kill with me!"

At the critical moment, Sha Moke led the troops to kill him.The soldiers of the Canglang Army followed Shamoke to attack forcefully, and immediately stopped the offensive momentum of the coalition forces.

The two armies collided, swords, guns, swords and halberds intersected, and people died in battle every second... Blood soon stained the narrow road of Meridian Valley red.

"Advance in formation!"

The failure of the internal competition made the Wolf Army sum up many problems.Among them is the problem that soldiers do not cooperate tacitly and match unreasonably when fighting.After improvement and learning, the combat capability of the current Canglang Army group has improved a lot.

He led the attack by himself, but was blocked by the wolf army.Yan Liang was very angry.

"Samoko, die!"

Seeing Shamoke slaughtering his own soldiers, Yan Liang drank a lot, and rode his horse straight to where Shamoke was.

Shamoko fights on foot and has no horses.If Yan Liang was allowed to kill him, Sha Moke would be in danger.

In the confusion, it was Shi Zhongyu who discovered the situation.He directly drew his bow and set up an arrow, and the three arrows shot straight at Yan Liang.Prepare to block this sneak attack for Shamoko.

"Jade in the stone!"

Yan Liang's heart suddenly tightened, and a sense of fatal crisis hit him.It made him immediately think of a person in the Wuling Army.

The general's intuition was very accurate, Yan Liang sensed the crisis, and lay directly on the side of the horse, trying to avoid Shi Zhongyu's back arrow.

Puff puff!
Three consecutive beeps, the arrow pierces the flesh!
Yan Liang's horse was hit by an arrow, and after suffering the pain, he went mad and threw Yan Liang off the horse.

After rolling a few laps on the ground to relieve his stress, Yan Liang found that Shamoko was not far away.So he grabbed his weapon and went to Shamoke.

Yan Liang knew that as long as Shamoke was dealt with, the coalition forces would be able to defeat the Wolf Army faster and get through Meridian Valley.
