Three Kingdoms: Peak Summons

Chapter 243 King Xiang is trapped in Hulao Pass

Chapter 242: King Xiang trapped in Hulao Pass

　　When the sound of the golden horn floated on the battlefield, all the yellow scarf warriors fighting in the front, although they were extremely unwilling, they all withdrew honestly.

The night attack on Hulao Pass was a siege. There were not many cavalry in the Yellow Turban Army, and using infantry to forcefully confront the cavalry was contrary to the common sense of war.

What's more, the combat power of the Yanmen Iron Cavalry far exceeds any Han army the Yellow Turbans have encountered before. Now that the loss of Hulao Pass is a foregone conclusion, continuing to fight is not brave, but stupid.

However, before retreating, the Huangjin warriors had one more thing to do, which was to kill all the surrendered Han prisoners. This order naturally came from Huang Chao.

Hulao Pass originally had 70,000 defenders. In addition to those who died in battle, fled, and continued to resist, there were also nearly 20,000 Han troops who surrendered to the Yellow Turban Army out of despair.

Now that Hulao Pass is about to change hands again, it is naturally impossible to take prisoners with them during the defeat, and most of the Han troops are cavalry. Who knows whether they will follow and pursue them?

 Keeping the captives will help the Han army. They cannot be taken away, so they can only and must be killed.

 “No, the Yellow Turban Army wants to kill the prisoners.”

Qin Zheng was the first to discover the Yellow Turban Army's intention and quickly shouted: "If you dare to stop it, hurry up and rescue the brothers!"

In order to rescue their comrades, the Han Army and the Yanmen Army launched a stronger fighting force, but in the end it was still a step too late.

Golden Hercules slaughtered the prisoners who had no power to fight back, and his attack speed was naturally very fast. Blood flowed into rivers in the prisoner-of-war camp, and there were screams again and again.

The Yanmen Army used the fastest rescue speed, but when they arrived, most of the prisoners of war were killed, and only five to six thousand people survived.

 Huang Chao's massacre order this time can be said to be the biggest mistake he has made in recent years. Zhang Jiao was completely disappointed with him because of this.

 The seeds of hatred have been planted and will soon grow into towering trees.

In the near future, the Yellow Turban massacre of Han prisoners of war will spread throughout the world, and by then, no Han army will dare to surrender lightly.

 After withdrawing from Hulao Pass with some of the Yellow Turban warriors, Zhu Wen quickly rode his horse to Huang Chao to report.

“Commander, only nearly 5,000 people have evacuated, and nearly 3,000 people are trapped in the barrier and cannot escape. The others have all died in the battle.”

The most elite Yellow Turban warriors of the Yellow Turban Army, there were fully 30,000 when they went into battle, but now there are less than 5,000, which shows how tragic this battle was.

 Huang Chao sighed and asked, "Where are Xiang Yu's people?"

 “I didn’t see it, it should still be in the pass!”

Looking at the Yanmen cavalry who were about to kill at the city gate, Huang Chao's eyes flashed with joy. Once the Yanmen army closed the city gate, even if Xiang Yu was the overlord, he would not be able to survive.

“Commander, do you need to rescue the three thousand soldiers in the pass...”

"Once the cavalry in the pass comes out to chase us, we may not be able to escape, so retreat!"

When Zhu Wen heard this, a trace of distress flashed in his eyes. He was the most elite yellow scarf warrior, and he just gave up like that?

 Huang Chao acted in an understatement, as if he was not abandoning 3,000 elites, but 3,000 ants.

In Huang Chao's heart, as long as he can trick Xiang Yu to death, even if he abandons the eight thousand yellow scarf warriors around him, what's the harm?

 Xiang Yu on the other side has made up his mind not to continue to entangle with Qin Hao, but now Qin Hao will not let him go so easily.

  Xiang Yu is a serious problem in Huang Chao's heart, so why is he not Qin Hao's great enemy?

This kind of heaven-defying force that can change a battle by one person is simply unacceptable in the world, so even if it is used by Huang Chao, Qin Hao will admit it.

Within the battle group, Xiang Yu had broken through twice, but both times were resolved by the six men and they were surrounded again; outside the battle group, nearly two thousand soldiers broke through the military camp, surrounding the battle group into a large circle, and Xiang Yu broke through close to Two thousand bows were immediately aimed at Xiang Yu.

 The battle continued for more than ten rounds, but still could not break through. While Xiang Yu was angry, he also secretly thought about how to break through.

 Capture Qin Hao alive and use him as a hostage to escape?

This idea was rejected by Xiang Yu as soon as it appeared.

Qin Hao was too cautious. If he really had a chance to capture Qin Hao alive, he wouldn't have been dragged until now.

 Capture other generals alive as hostages?

Not even!

These generals of Yanmen Army are all extraordinary. Although Xiang Yu is sure to be killed, Xiang Yu is not sure about capturing them alive.

Fight!

With his internal and physical strength exhausted, Xiang Yu was mentally prepared to fight tooth and nail.

“Ding dong, Xiang Yu’s fighting spirit has soared, his skill ‘God of War’ has exploded, his force +4, and his current force is 124.”

 After fighting for more than 100 rounds, the effects of Xiang Yu’s skill ‘God of War’ finally burst out.

“I am Xiang Yu, Queen of Overlords, anyone who stands in my way will die!”

Xiang Yu raised his head to the sky and roared. After fighting for such a long time, his momentum did not weaken at all.

With two halberds on his left and right, Xiang Yu first forced Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong away, and then rode his horse eastward to prepare to break out from Yue Fei Shan Xiongxin.

 “He is going to break through to the east, stop him quickly!” Qin Hao shouted.

Yue Fei and Shan Xiongxin were both ready to intercept, but Xiang Yu suddenly turned his horse around and broke out to the opposite south.

The front gate of Hulao Pass is to the east, and the back gate is to the south. If he wanted to return to Chenliu, Xiang Yu could only break out to the east, but he broke out to the south instead, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

 “Not good!” Qin Haohao exclaimed.

Even if Xiang Yu breaks through to the south, he can still turn back and fight towards the east gate. Without the siege of the six generals of Yanmen, how can ordinary soldiers stop Xiang Yu.

In order to surround and kill Xiang Yu, the Yanmen Army has deployed all its combat power, and Zhang Liao Guan Sheng was seriously injured. If Xiang Yu is still allowed to escape, all previous efforts will be in vain.

When Xu Huang from the south saw him, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes. After gritting his teeth, he held the Tiangang ax tightly in both hands and faced Xiang Yu.

When Qin Hao saw that Xu Huang was facing Xiang Yu alone, he shouted: "Gong Ming, retreat quickly, Xiang Yu cannot be defeated by one person!"

Now Xiang Yu's force has reached 124, while Xu Huang only has 102 points of force. The difference in force between the two is 22 points. If there is a head-on confrontation, Xu Huangzhen may be killed by Xiang Yu in an instant.

Xu Huang ignored the young master's reminder and poured all his remaining internal energy into his hands, slashing at Xiang Yu with all his strength.

Xu Huang knew that he was no match for Xiang Yu, and that he might not be able to stop Xiang Yu in one round, but as long as he dragged him or slowed down Xiang Yu, the battle would be over. Won.

Looking at Xiang Yu not far away, Xu Huang roared: "Xiang Yu, don't leave, just give me Xu Huang an axe!"

Qin Hao was extremely anxious and could not care about anything else. He directly pulled out the general from his waist and threw it at Xiang Yu.

 “Hundred-step flying sword!”
