The last three kingdoms

Chapter 102 Yang'an Pass

At the beginning, the dust and smoke were only far away, only rising from the distant horizon, which seemed insignificant, but the speed at which the dust and smoke spread was quite astonishing, but the scene of a stick of incense had spread to the entire east direction. Among them, there is almost nothing else to be seen, only the rumble of horseshoes and the sound of shouting and shouting can be heard faintly. The sky covered the sun, and with bursts of murderous aura, it swept towards Yang'an Pass.

There was a commotion on the top of Yang'an Pass, some people were trembling, and some were whispering. Although most of the soldiers guarding Yang'an Pass were long-time fighters, the Shu army suffered heavy casualties after repeated Northern Expeditions. , supplementary recruits are inevitable.Many new recruits have never experienced a battle formation, so such a large formation will naturally be a little scary. In comparison, veterans are much calmer.

Fu Qian's sharp gaze swept across, and the uneasy crowd quickly calmed down again.

"Everyone is here, ready to meet the enemy!" Fu Qian shouted sharply, holding his long sword high.

The Shu army defending the city immediately moved into action. The crossbowmen nervously prepared the clusters of bows and arrows, and the rolling stones were pushed to the edge of the city wall. Anxiety and fear, amid the methodical preparations for battle, the fear of those recruits gradually disappeared, replaced by a kind of excitement, a desire to fight.

Fu Qian is quite satisfied with this state. What is needed in a war is morale. An army without morale is like losing its soul. Come on, what are you afraid of?

Although the Wei army's large-scale invasion this time was not unexpected, its actions were extremely fast. Within ten days, they had already arrived at the city of Pingguan in Yang'an. The main throat leading to Xichuan, in front of Yang'an Pass, there are still two important passes in Hancheng and Lecheng. How could Zhong Hui not play his cards according to common sense, and adopted a strategy of encircling and not fighting against the two cities of Hanle and Lecheng? Pop Yang Anguan to come.

Although there are only 7000 defenders at Yang'an Pass, Fu Qian still has confidence. After all, Yang'an Pass is difficult to defend and difficult to attack. It's just wishful thinking.

What's more, Jiang Wei's army is in Tazhong. As long as he hears the news of Hanzhong being attacked, he will definitely lead his troops to help.

Fu Qian issued the combat order calmly, and Yang'an Pass was already in full swing.

Amidst the dust and smoke that covered the sky, countless banners stood out. Under the banners, the army of the Wei State came to attack in a mighty manner, with neat lines and bright armor. Looking down from the top of the city of Yang'an Pass, the entire Wei army There are layers upon layers of formations, all over the mountains and plains, boundless, impenetrable, majestic, and the sound of killing shakes the sky.

Seeing this scene, the defenders couldn't help but gasp, it's so powerful, it's like a tiger!
In fact, it was not the main force of the Wei army led by Zhong Hui who came to Yang'an Pass, but the 3 horses led by the vanguard Xu Yi. Xu Yi is the son of Xu Chu, a tiger idiot. The general of the door, waiting for orders under the tent of the general of Zhenxi, took the initiative to invite Ying to be the vanguard of the attack on Shu, and led [-] troops to directly capture Yang'an Pass.

Xu Yi had issued a military order in front of Zhong Hui's tent, and she couldn't take Yang'an Pass within three days, so she was subject to military law.All the generals were sweating for Xu Yi, but Xu Yi was the only one who didn't care, and threatened, "Wherever our army arrives, the Shu army is invincible. A mere Yang'an Pass can be broken through with a flick of a finger."

After obtaining the defense map of Hanzhong, the Wei army knew the defense situation of Hanzhong very well, how many defenders there were at Yang'an Pass, how the troops were deployed, and how the defense situation was. The garrison of Yang'an Pass is only 7000 people, but he leads an army of [-], which is several times higher than that of his opponents. The so-called know yourself and the enemy, and you will never end in a hundred battles. Xu Yi has no reason to think that she can't take Yang'an Pass.

Xu Yi rode a tall horse. His figure was already very burly. Riding on the horse, he was obviously taller than the surrounding guards, giving him a feeling of standing out from the crowd.

"Shout to the city and ask them to open the city and surrender immediately, otherwise no chicken or dog will be left behind!" Xu Yi had already seen the towering towers of Yang'an Pass, and immediately ordered the Chinese army to send people to the city to shout, this is called courtesy before soldiers.

Xu Yi was originally a rough person, but compared to the elegant and gentle Zhenxi General Zhong Hui, he was far behind. A letter, to the effect: "There are many sages, wise, civil and military scholars in Bashu. As for the foot, Zhuge Siyuan, for example, all the plants and trees are like me. The respect of Sangzi has been honored in ancient and modern times. When I arrive in the west, I want to pay homage to the majesty. Marquis' tomb, we should sprinkle and sweep the tomb, and worship in the shrine. I would like to tell where it is!"

Zhong Hui is the son of Zhong Yao, a famous scholar. He himself is also very talented, and he can write beautifully. The letter of persuasion to surrender is also beautifully written. A few people ran to the city of Yang'anguan and shouted, asking Fu Qian to leave the city to accept surrender.

Xu Yi was originally a rough person, and naturally there were not many qualified people under his command, so he ran to the bottom of the city and yelled loudly: "Hey! People in the city listen up, open the city and surrender, if not, break the city, Dogs and chickens will not be left behind!"

It's no wonder that they are rude, as Xu Yi's original words are that the chickens and dogs will not be left behind.

Fu Qian sneered in the city, but did not answer, he put his bow and arrow, and the loud man in the city was yelling vigorously. Fu Qian let go of his hand, and a feathered arrow shot straight past, like a shooting star, and the arrow shot from there. The gun shot into the mouth of a soldier and passed through the back of the neck, killing him instantly.

Seeing this, Wei Jun immediately dragged the soldier's body away, scattered like birds and beasts, and did not dare to make noise in the city anymore.

Go back and report to Xu Yi, saying that the guard at Yang'an Pass not only refused to surrender, but also shot dead the sergeant who shouted with cold arrows.Xu Yi was furious, and immediately ordered all the troops to attack Yang'an Pass.

The Wei army marched from the Qinling Valley Road and marched lightly. Naturally, they did not carry any large siege equipment, such as catapults, rush cars, and siege vehicles. The walls of Anguan launched a tidal offensive.

All of a sudden, the city was like ants, densely packed, spreading across the field.
