Chapter 597 Take Luyang 3
The soldier in black under Wang Yue opened the gate with death until the death of the last person allowed Lv Bu to enter the water pass. His mood was extremely heavy. The Xiliang Army could sacrifice his life anytime and anywhere for the task, all for a belief. For the commander of the Xiliang Army, he thought that Wang Yuebu He was a person who walked in the world. Because he was used by the Emperor of Han and became a sharp blade in his hand, he really joined the Xiliang Army and realized how heavy an order was. In order to complete it, the life of assassinating soldiers was like grass mustard.
Lv Bu's strength shocked Yu Jin. He had heard that there were many fierce generals in the Xiliang army, and they all had the courage, but they didn't really see it. Now when he saw Lv Bu, it was clear that sometimes a person can really change the situation on the battlefield, especially when the two sides are deadlocked.
The cavalry behind him followed the pace of Lv Bu and broke into the enemy's camp. The machete constantly harvested the lives of the defenders. Everyone's face was solemn, and the robes around him were constantly fell, but they did not let them pause for a moment. This is the elite and will not be distracted by external things.
Yu Yu said coldly, "Archery."
The 300 archers in front of them have been wailing under the iron hooves of the iron horse. The archers can only have one chance to launch. When the cavalry is close, there is no armor protection, and they only have a ring knife in their hands. They can only be constantly slaughtered, with heavy casualties.
"General, there are still soldiers of our army ahead, they..." The deputy general persuaded him and stretched out the butcher's knife to his robe. The previous time had made him unable to believe it, but now he ordered it again.
"I can't care so much. For the sake of the water pass, even if they sacrifice, they will die. The water pass can't be lost." Yu Ban said in a cold voice.
A dense rain of arrows caused the cavalry to lose more than a dozen people, but more died was the defenders. They looked around at a loss and didn't understand where these cold arrows came from. They were completely unprepared against the rear to resist the cavalry in the front.
The soldiers' hearts were shaken. The general they trusted actually shot arrows at them and kept retreating, giving the cavalry a chance.
All five hundred cavalrymen entered the city, and there were only a few dozen cavalrymen in the Fenshui Pass. How could they stop it? The cavalry who entered the Pass were like demons from hell, but in just a quarter of an hour, the defenders were defeated.
Two thousand infantry came to the customs and laid the foundation for the victory of the war. Yu Jin looked at the enemy in front of him with a cold face, and his mouth was bitter. He thought that the water pass was built like an iron barrel, but he didn't expect that he was easily attacked into the city by the Xiliang army. Thinking of the trust of the master and the current situation, he really wanted to pull it up. The sword at his waist cut his throat and committed suicide.
"General, hurry up and retreat. Leave the green mountains. Don't be afraid that there is no firewood. There is also the Hu Prison Pass after the Fenshui Pass. The general should go to the Hu Prison Pass quickly and notify the defenders inside to guard against the attack of the Xiliang Army."
The advice of the deputy general suddenly woke up. The Xiliang army launched an attack on the Fenshui Pass. It must have been planned for a long time, and the loss of the Fenshui Pass was so suddenly. If the Xiliang Army dressed up as Cao Army with a small number of cavalry and attacked the Fenshui Pass, it would be really fatal. The Tiger Prison Pass and the Fenshui Pass are like a natural danger, as long as you keep it. The Xiliang army could only wander outside Luoyang and could not enter the hinterland of the Central Plains.
"Retreat." After Yu's order, he took the rein handed over from the soldiers, turned over the horse, and led dozens of cavalry to run away first.
After calming down the Fenshui Pass, Lv Bu kept his feet and ordered the soldiers to put on Cao's clothes and lead more than a hundred cavalry in the direction of Hu Prison Pass. He could seize the two natural dangers of Fenshui Pass and Hu Prison Pass in one night. His Lv Bu's status will be unshakable in the Xiliang Army, and it is not the small Ma Chao. The rising star can be compared with being provoked by Ma Chao one after another. Lv Bu also wants to make some achievements to let all the generals of the Xiliang Army see that the first fierce general of the Xiliang Army is not a false reputation.
Guo Jia's scheme just gave Lv Bu this opportunity.
The infantry soon took over the rule of the Weishui Pass. The flag of the Xiliang army floated in the night. The merchants who stayed in the pass only heard the continuous sound of fighting and horseshoes in the pass. They didn't know what happened. They, who had been doing business all year round, naturally knew that they could not go out at this time, no matter which side became the ruler, no It will delay their business, and they don't have to lose their lives for a little curiosity.
After capturing the Fenshui Pass, there were only 300 cavalry left in Lv Bu's hand. Yu Jin's counterattack caused the Xiliang army to lose 200 elite cavalry.
When Lv Bu led his army to the Hu Prison Pass, he saw that the door was closed tightly, and the soldiers who closed the patrol were dense, more than several times stronger than the Fenshui Pass. He was secretly shocked. It seemed that there were certainly many Cao's troops in the Hu Prison Pass. Under the strong attack, it would take months for 50,000 troops to move together.
"Open the gate quickly and let the general enter the city." A general beside Lv Bu shouted at the closing, while Lv Bu hid among the cavalry. He repeatedly fought with Cao Jun, and someone must know the general of Cao Jun.
"Who is it?"
"I am the general of Fenshuiguan. The Xiliang army came to attack overnight, and General Yu sent a humble position to ask for help." The general shouted.
"The Xiliang Army is attacking the city?" The general who guarded the gate doubted that the water pass was a natural danger, and there were thousands of troops in Yu Jin's hands. Even if the Xiliang army came to attack, he would not be so panicked.
"The archer is ready." The goalkeeper ordered.
"There is no nonsense. There are thousands of soldiers in the hands of the general. How will the Xiliang army be afraid of attacking the city?"
"Open and close the door quickly. The situation is urgent. If the water pass is lost because of this, can you take responsibility?"
The goalkeeper revealed a faint firelight and looked at the cavalry under the closed. He saw that they were indeed Cao's cavalry. There were still a little blood stains on their bodies. Some of the soldiers were seriously injured. If they could not get treatment, they would die quickly. He was secretly shocked and ordered, "Open the door."
The rumble of horses' hoofs came again in the distance, but a general shouted loudly, "Don't open the gate. These people are the cavalry of the Xiliang Army."
The gatekeeper hurriedly ordered his soldiers to stop opening the gate and observe the situation outside the gate. At the same time, he ordered the soldiers to inform Xia Houyuan.
"Open the gate quickly." The generals around Lv Bu shouted without giving up.
Lv Bu's eyes suddenly snap. He didn't expect that the hard-won situation was broken by the arrival of Yu Ban. He secretly ordered, "Kill all these cavalry, catch Yu Ban, and we retreat."
He is going to capture alive when the defenders at the gate are not on guard, which is worthwhile.
Yu Ban's shout also made his situation very critical. He ran all night, and the horses under him were already exhausted. At this time, it was really unwise to fight with the Xiliang Army, but for the sake of the Tiger Pass, he could not take care of so much. As long as he could block the Xiliang Army outside the Pass, it would be a success.
When the gatekeeper saw the cavalry who was still asking him to open the gate, he suddenly turned around and killed more than a dozen other Cao cavalrymen. However, for a moment of fighting, he stood up and down and said, "What's the matter? How can our cavalry fight against each other?
Lv Bu's eyes were cold and he went straight to the forbidden. The two of them could not fight for a three-in-one meeting. Lv Bu stabbed the war horse under the forbidden body. When Yu stood up from the ground in embarrasssment, his career had been caught.
"When the Japanese general comes, he will definitely take down the tiger prison." Lv Bu's angry voice kept echoing when it was closed.
The gatekeeper was very happy. Fortunately, another Cao army brought it. Otherwise, after the gate was opened, the cavalry rushed in and the tiger prison was lost. His responsibility was great, but he was also mourning for the general.
After Xia Houyuan received the news from the soldiers, he didn't even wear his clothes neatly, so he hurried to close it. After hearing the situation described by the general, his face was like the bottom of the pot. Xia Houyuan was able to get Cao Cao's trust to guard the important barrier of the tiger prison because he was brave and resourceful and met the judgment of things. He has a strong ability to cut off, and he is a member of Cao Cao's clan, which is trustworthy.
"Water Pass?" Xia Houyuan muttered, "Lost it?"
"General, how can it be? There are thousands of soldiers in the Forbidden General, and General Yu is cautious and will certainly not give the enemy a chance." The deputy general said.
Xia Houyuan did not explain why. When a cavalry came to earn the city gate, everything was clear. It was impossible for the Xiliang army to fly over. The soldiers were close to the tiger prison, and the water pass was a natural danger. No matter how capable the Xiliang army was, it was impossible to face the tiger prison.
"Greate your guard. No one is allowed to open the gate without my order. Those who dare to approach the gate will be killed without mercy." Xiahou Yuandao.
"No."
The Hu Prison Pass was made by Lv Bu's shout and the changes outside the city. The strength of the patrol soldiers was more than doubled. The torch burned brightly, and the situation outside the gate was fully panoramic.
The army came to Fenshui Pass. After hearing the results reported by Lv Bu, Zhao Yun praised, "General Lv is really the lucky general of our army. He lost hundreds of people and put Fenshui Pass into our army's pocket, which is the first achievement."
Lv Bu hugged his fist and said, "Thank you, General. It is the merits of General Wang Yue to successfully take down the water pass in this battle."
"Wang Yue?" Zhao Yun doubted that he didn't expect that this battle had something to do with Wang Yue.
"Yes, General Wang Yue sent his soldiers to attack the water pass overnight and open the gate. Only then did Bei Zhi have the opportunity to lead the cavalry into the pass, and the fifty assassinated soldiers died under the gate." Lv Bu's voice choked slightly.
Zhao Yun said with a moved face, "I will definitely tell the lord about this matter, bury the dead warriors, and treat their families well."
Ma Chao's eyes at Lv Bu were a little burning. Originally, these contributions should have been his. He was sure that the sneak attack on Wei Shuiguan must have been made by Guo Jia.
Less than three days after leaving the army, he captured the Shuiguan, which greatly encouraged the morale of the army. The generals of each department had already rubbed their hands and were ready to show their skills outside the Hu Prison Pass.
