The Three Kingdoms: The Cold Gate World

Chapter 80 The Great Victory of Yangping
Ten miles away from Yangping Pass, Gan Ning and Zhou Tai led the army to wait for the opportunity.

Standing on horseback in front of the formation, Gan Ning and Zhou Tai held their heads high and their faces were calm. Although the army of 5000 soldiers behind them was also unarmored and their weapons were not sharp, the formation was orderly and orderly. Looking ahead without saying a word, it was a scene of being ready for battle.

As the saying goes, there are no weak soldiers under a strong general. A strong general is not only brave, but also depends on resourcefulness and army management. Since Gan Ning Zhou Tai followed Guo Jia, he has been studying the art of war. There is no room for slack and child's play.

A spy came back and reported: "Report, General, General Zhang Baiqi went to Yangping Pass to call for battle, and the guard Yang Ang led [-] soldiers and horses to go out to fight. At this moment, General Zhang and his army are fleeing here."

Gan Ning, who did not change his face, said in a deep voice, "Explore again!"

Zhou Tai glanced at Gan Ning, he already had the urge to send troops to support Zhang Baiqi, but he looked at Gan Ning, whose face was as firm as Mount Tai, and suppressed his urge.

After a while, Tan Ma hurried back and said: "Report, General Zhang was chased by Yang Ang's army after fleeing for two miles. He is retreating and killing at the moment. There is a scuffle ahead."

Gan Ning suddenly opened his eyes wide and said: "I will lead the army forward immediately, and you will report the battle situation ahead to General Gao ten miles behind, and there must be no mistakes."

After watching Tanma go to the rear, Gan Ning and Zhou Tai immediately led their troops towards Yangping Pass.

Twenty miles away from Yangping Pass, Gao Shun led [-] light cavalry to wait for a long time. After he had to scout the horse to report, he closed his eyes and meditated, and did not order to attack. After a while, he opened his eyes and turned to the soldiers and said: In order to fight, we must enter the city before the Yangping Gate is closed, and then occupy the city gate without violating the order."

After the sound of agreement was heard in unison, Gao Shun rode in the lead, followed by five thousand Qingqi, calm and orderly.

Yang Ang, who chased and killed Zhang Baiqi, had never been so happy. The fight with Reservoir Dog was very comfortable, not only enjoyable, but also beat the opponent to death!

Chasing after the enemy bandits like chopping melons and chopping vegetables, Yang Ang looked for Zhang Baiqi while smiling.

Although Zhang Baiqi, who was riding on a horse, was in the rear when he escaped, the four-legged horse cantered, and after two miles, it surpassed the two-legged man.

Seeing Zhang Baiqi running away but not running fast, Yang Ang became murderous and shouted at the soldiers beside him: "Did you see the thief general on the horse in front? I will kill him very much reward!"

There must be a brave man under a heavy reward, not to mention the battlefield military exploits that can be promoted. Yang Angjun was immediately inspired and chased frantically.

Zhang Baiqi, who was riding on the horse, felt uncomfortable. He wanted to make a contribution in the first battle, but he didn't expect to know that he was here as a bait after receiving the military order. It was hard to get off the tiger, so he had to bite the bullet. At this time, the five thousand troops behind him had been beheaded. With less than two thousand left, Yang Ang's army gradually approached.

Zhang Baiqi, who secretly hated in his heart, looked back helplessly at the scene behind him and muttered: If the reinforcements don't come again, I can only pat the horse and run for my life at full speed.

Just when Zhang Baiqi was about to escape alone, reinforcements finally appeared. Gan Ning and Zhou Tai led [-] infantry to rush forward. Zhang Baiqi, who had confidence in his heart, grabbed the reins and turned his horse's head, heading towards Yang Ang. Roar: "Zhang Bai of the Taiping Army is riding here, the enemy general will not dismount and die!"

Yang Ang was startled, and quickly reined in his horse to stop. Seeing countless pawns rushing forward from a distance, he secretly shouted: It's a trick!
Turning the horse's head and was about to run back, Yang Ang ordered and shouted: "Retreat, retreat quickly, there is a scam!"

The situation on the scene took a turn for the worse. Yang Ang, who was originally chasing and killing the enemy bandits, instantly switched situations with the enemy bandits and became being hunted down.

"Get out of the way!"

Yang Ang had fallen into the enemy's army in the previous pursuit, now he turned around and retreated, not only the enemy was chasing him, but also his own soldiers were blocking the way, he was caught in the middle and panicked.

The three thousand well-armored and sharp-armored soldiers did not expect to turn around and flee after chasing them. Seeing the mighty infantry of at least ten thousand people rushing in, the strength of Yang Ang's army, which was completely out of formation, was greatly reduced. Immediately turned around and ran back.

After finally riding a horse out from the crowd, Yang Ang was lucky to breathe a sigh of relief, but he didn't expect the sound of horseshoes in his ears, and when he looked back, he suddenly panicked.

The harsh and indifferent Gan Ning came after him with a longbow and a short-handled long knife in his hand. On the other side, Zhou Tai also came to chase with a long knife in his hands and a fierce look on his face.

Gan Ning and Zhou Tai sandwiched Yang Ang between the left and the right, swinging a long knife to attack from left and right, as if he wanted to chop Yang Ang off the horse.

Yang Ang, who lowered his head and hugged the horse's head, turned pale with shock, and ran straight towards Yangping Pass with all his strength.

Zhang Wei, who stood at Yangping Pass and observed the battle all the time, was still secretly scolding Yang Ang for taking meritorious deeds, but now he is thankful that Yang Ang saved him a difficult time.

The booming sound shook the sky, Zhang Wei raised his eyes, his face turned pale immediately, Gao Shun led five thousand light cavalry to cross the infantry army fighting outside the pass, and directly attacked Yangping Pass.

"Close the city gate! Hurry up!" The terrified Zhang Wei ordered immediately, but his subordinates still hesitated.

"Here, General Yang hasn't returned yet."

Zhang Weichao looked down, but he was also in a dilemma. Yang Ang fled in embarrassment when he was surrounded by Gan Ning and Zhou Tai. He was less than one mile away from the city gate. The gate is less than two miles away.

"Go down and prepare! Once General Yang returns to the city, immediately close the city gate."

Helpless Zhang Wei had no choice but to pray for Yang Ang to run faster, oh, it was the horse under Yang Ang's crotch to run faster.

Gan Ning and Zhou Tai, who sandwiched Yang Ang in the middle and wanted to kill him, actually wanted to kill Yang Ang. One attack was enough, and they were attacking at the moment, but on the one hand, they were restricting the speed of Yang Ang's return to the city, and on the other hand, they were also afraid. The guard closed the gate regardless of Yang Ang.

Seeing that Yang Ang had only a hundred meters to enter the city, and the five thousand light cavalry behind him were less than one mile away, the distance of hundreds of meters was only a few breaths for the cavalry.

Zhang Wei didn't care about Yang Ang's life or death. If the city gate was lost, Yangping Pass would surely fall.

"Close the city gate!"

His subordinates were still hesitating, Zhang Wei turned around and roared at the soldiers beside the gate: "Close the city gate quickly! Anyone who dares to delay the military order, kill!"

Yang Ang was dumbfounded, why did the city gate start to close?I haven't gone in yet, it's less than a hundred steps away!

Seeing that the gate of the city began to close, Gan Ning and Zhou Tai stopped playing around with Yang Ang, Zhou Tai swung his knife and slashed fiercely, a head flew far away, and a fountain of blood rushed out and swayed all over the ground.

Qushuai Gan Ning, the once-proud Jinfan thief, now looks like an eagle. He took off the longbow on his back and put on two arrows. The bow was full like a moon. There is a lot of self-confidence in it.

嘣

With a crisp sound of the bowstring, two arrows shot away, piercing the sky like lightning, and saw two soldiers who were closing the city gate of Yangping Pass fly upside down, and died on their backs, each with a bullet stuck in their foreheads. arrows.

It was these two arrows that slowed down the closing speed of the city gate a little. After closing the gate, Zhang Wei ordered to shoot Gan Ning and Zhou Tai to death in shock and fear.

But the two waved their weapons calmly to block the arrows, and rushed towards the gate of Yangpingguan without any slowdown.

Squeak, bang!

Just before the gate was closed, Gan Ning and Zhou Tai rushed in at the same time, and the horse's hooves kicked on the city gate with the great force from galloping, and knocked the city gate half open. The soldiers inside were knocked into the air, but soon got up and were about to close the city gate again.

Gan Ning Zhou Tai rode on his horse and chopped down the soldiers who wanted to close the city gate. The vibration behind him became louder and louder. After killing only a few soldiers, Gan Ning Zhou Tai suddenly found that the soldiers in front of him dropped their weapons and fled in all directions. Turning their heads, the two saw Gao Shun's five thousand cavalry arriving!
The cavalry drove straight in, the sound of horseshoes shook the sky and the earth, and the gate of Yangpingguan fell instantly!

There are still more than [-] defenders in the pass, but their preparations are not sufficient. At this time, they took up weapons and resisted hastily.

The [-] Yang Ang troops outside the pass also fell or died soon. Zhang Baiqi led more than [-] infantry to rush to Yangping Pass.

Gan Ning and Zhou Tai dismounted and led the army to the tower, but Zhang Wei fought hard but was easily killed by Zhou Tai.

Yang Ang and Zhang Wei's generals were still hesitating whether to continue to resist after seeing the two commanders killed in battle. Outside Yangping Pass, more than [-] people rushed slowly.

The commander-in-chief of the army straddled a red-maned horse, dressed in mighty armor and a green dragon cloak on his shoulders, and the heroic young commander with a stern face was none other than Guo Jia.

Seeing the densely packed army approaching from a distance, all the low-ranking generals at Yangping Pass were as cold as ice. Seeing the wild "Guo" character on the coach's banner, they never thought that the coach of any group of troops was surnamed Guo.

So far, more than [-] soldiers have been beheaded in Yangping Pass, and the remaining [-] soldiers have all surrendered.

Guo Jiace led the army towards Yangpingguan without any haste, and the battlefield was quickly cleaned up. At the closed gate, Gan Ning Zhoutai, Gao Shun and Zhang Baiqi stood on the left and right, with excitement and reverence in their eyes Looking at Guo Jia who was gradually approaching.

Yangpingguan victory, they all know what it means.

This was the first city they took, though it wasn't technically a city.

This also marks that Guo Jia has officially taken the first step in the struggle for hegemony, officially announcing to the heroes of the world: Among the heroes who compete in the world, there is now one more person named Guo Jia.

Before arriving at Yangping Pass, Guo Jia dismounted from his horse. In the scorching sun, Guo Jia, who was wearing a majestic armor, walked into Yangping Pass calmly. Inside the city gate, he stopped and turned to look at Zhang Bai, whose armor was broken and somewhat embarrassed. He put his hand on his shoulder, and Guo Jia said gently: "General Zhang, you have contributed a lot to conquering Yangping Pass."

Zhang Baiqi, who was full of sadness and even resentment before, was so moved that he couldn't be more moved at this moment. He immediately knelt on one knee and clasped his fists and said, "My lord, it was General Gan, General Zhou, and General Gao who were brave enough to break into Yangping Pass at the last moment. The last general, In the end, the general dare not claim credit."

Guo Jia helped him up, and said in a deep voice: "General Zhang, you have lured the enemy out, and the situation is dangerous. Without you, I would not be able to enter this Yangping Pass."

Looking at Guo Jia's sincere eyes, Zhang Baiqi felt an unbearable excitement lingering in his heart.
