Chapter 67: Rebel Generals

"Dad, don't open the door, transfer troops to defend the north and south! There are enemy troops in the south stealing the city, stealing the city! ”

Only then did Hua Xiong clearly know that his son had long since grown into a true samurai. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The wolf rushed to the mound all the way, not to escape for his life, but to let him know the current enemy situation facing Tongguan.

There are nearly 5,000 people at the south gate of Tongguan who climb the mountain by taking the forest path, and build a road with a giant tree in the middle of the mountain and the city wall, and go straight to the city wall at the south end of Tongguan.

On the other side, at the north gate of Tongguan, there are also more than 5,000 foot soldiers carrying ladders to the solid Tongguan city wall...... The most important thing is that right under the city, his only son and six thousand tired soldiers are waiting to open the door and put them into the gate.

Behind them were the rebel soldiers and horses that stretched endlessly across the wilderness...... How could he open the door?

No matter who it is, even if it is Ma Yue in person, this is a difficult choice.

Everyone faced with this situation will make different choices. If Ma Yue personally guarded Tongguan, and Guan Yu, Gan Ning, Ma Wan, Dong Zhuo and others were under the city, he would not hesitate to open the city gate at the risk of losing Tongguan.

But if it was Ma Qing, he might not have opened the city.

The same question is facing Hua Xiong, there are two paths, how should he choose?

Hua Ye didn't give his father a chance to make a choice, and almost the moment he stood under the city, he had already made a decision about the fate of himself and the soldiers and horses that followed.

Looking at the city with his head held high, Hua Ye took a deep look at the old Hua Xiong, and roared: "Father, the middle gate is handed over to the child to defend!" You can guard the north and south gates! ”

Turning around, Hua Ye, who was bare-handed, shouted at the soldiers and horses of the Liang Kingdom who were fleeing towards the city gate: "The soldiers of the Liang Kingdom will listen to the order, form a formation according to the city gate, and defend Tongguan to the death!" ”

At this time, no matter how dull the soldiers of the Liang Kingdom are, where will they not know what kind of difficulties and dangers they will face...... Tong closed the door, and for a while, there was only the heavy wheezing sound of the big cool man and the sound of the gold and stone colliding with the armor.

They are a group of exhausted and exhausted troops, and Hua Ye already knows that what he has to face is definitely not a Sizhou rebel!

What rebel army has such strategic versatility?

The current crisis can only be said to be the fault of their father and son...... Hua Xiong and Hua Ye's tactics in this battle showed the superb combat power of General Xi Liang to the fullest.

How many people in the world can annihilate an enemy army equivalent to their entire body in the wilderness without relying on the terrain with less than 10% of the battle damage?

Huaye did it!

But this battle, in fact, they lost.

Because the purpose of both sides was different from the beginning!

Hua Ye led the army out of the pass, in order to draw out most of the enemy's army, and again and again to create the illusion that the enemy could win with a little more troops. In order to achieve his goal of annihilating as many rebels as possible.

But neither he nor Hua Xiong thought that the enemy's purpose was to capture Tongguan!

Who the would have thought that a group of rebels with no more than 30,000 people would dare to fight the first Xiongguan in Sizhou after eating Bao Tian?

Strategically, they are too far behind.

"Fuck, I really can't go back?"

Hu Zhen hid in a stirrup on the road and picked up the long knife left by Hua Ye on the ground, although he was old, he was still very vigorous, and ran all the way to Tongguan City and stuck the long knife in the land in front of Hua Ye, looking around at the situation of the battlefield around him and panting heavily.

He didn't expect that he would go out of the customs to rescue Huaye in a moment of enthusiasm, but he really said a prophecy and couldn't go back to Tongguan...... At this time, unless the guards don't want their heads, who would dare to open the city?

As a veteran of the battlefield, Hu Zhen knew very well that the rebels wearing Han army armor chasing behind him were waiting for the defenders to open the city, and as long as the city gate was opened, they would never let the city gate close again.

"Uncle, let your men dismount and set up a crossbow array to block the enemy...... It's an uphill battle. ”

Hua Ye lifted the long knife that was deep in the dirt and walked towards the front of the formation.

He is a pioneer general, and the more difficult the moment, the more he must let his subordinates behind him see his active figure on the battlefield.

Soon, Hu Zhen's light horsemen dismounted one after another, driving the horses to set up a position under the city, and the tired foot soldiers put the remaining arrows together, drew the arc knife at their waists and lined up in front of the formation...... The long-distance shooting made it impossible for the archers' arms to continue shooting, and they had to rely on their sturdy armor to lay a human wall in front of the battle to defend themselves against the onslaught of the enemy.

The slower crossbows of the Ryokuni were superior at this time, and the best archers could draw their bows and shoot thirty-six or seventy-two shots in a continuous battle, that is, the archers carried one or two base arrows.

And Ryokoku's crossbowmen can shoot more than one hundred and fifty times continuously!

Because it's more effortless.

The black-pressed enemy army stopped running, and the large array of foot soldiers approached step by step, although the speed slowed down, but the heavy array of troops and spears made people feel more fearful.

The aura of fear permeated the Liangguo army array.

As far as the eye could see, there were all the enemy's sharp weapons, which in itself was enough to be feared. But what worries them even more is that they are not reassuring allies behind them...... Rather, it was the cold gates and the fortified walls.

There's no going back for them!

The battle first broke out at the southern end of the Tongguan wall.

The nearest place of the treacherous ridge is only one zhang away from the Tongguan city wall, and a huge tree is built on the ridge and the city wall, and the sergeant wearing the armor of the Han army will go up through such a dangerous wooden road and climb to the head of Tongguan!

This place happened to be a visual blind spot at the middle gate of Tongguan, and although Hua Xiong was informed by Hua Ye from under the city, he was still a step too late, and when his defenders rushed to the southern end of the city wall, the enemy troops also rushed to the head of the city.

The soldiers standing guard on the tower of the city gate launched a counterattack at the first time, and the big bed crossbow erected at the head of the city shot at the log that the enemy had climbed with the strength of the enemy, and the eight-foot-long crossbow bolt was nailed to the log with a noose, and then a group of Liangguo sergeants pulled the noose!

With a roar, a huge log rolled down the ridge with the momentum of wind and thunder, smashing over the more than a dozen rebels who had climbed, and also causing several sergeants on it to fall down.

But this was not enough, and the bed crossbow was torn apart by the noose, and fell with the log to the head of the city.

And the enemy troops, who were climbing fast, had already rushed up with swords and spears.

As long as you grab the city gate tower, you can open the south gate of Tongguan...... After an hour or two of carrying it, the strongest of the gates will change hands.

It's just that Hua Xiong won't let the enemy break through so easily, he paid the price of his only son being isolated, but not to let these Sizhou homeless people go to attack the city at will in the land of Daliang.

"Liang Guo Lang, raise your axes and cut them down, each one!"

The old, hoarse voice was like the sound of a blunt steel knife slashing at the bone, but it lifted the heart of every Liangguo sergeant.

That's their general!

Guannan and Guanbei, the battle spread in this land that had been calm for several years, and the sea of blood was churning everywhere.

Hua Ye once again stood proudly in front of the formation, holding a long knife, waving the huge shield that looked like a door panel, shouting, kill the enemy.

His voice could no longer support his shouts, his arms could no longer make his swings powerful, but he was still fighting.

The dizziness of the detachment hovered in his mind, and the red sea of weapons in front of him never stopped, and he felt that he might die under the city.

But he didn't retreat a single step, and the sergeants around him withdrew again and again, only he was still standing in front of the formation, his steps seemed to be deeply rooted, and he swung again.

The long knife is broken, and the giant shield can be wielded.

The giant shield was destroyed, and he picked up Changge and continued to meet the enemy.

He couldn't see any enemies for a long time, and there was only a patch of red in front of his eyes.

This is not killing the enemy, Huaye is fighting himself!

The crowd of people surged up, impacting the formation of the Liangguo sergeants again and again, crumbling...... Lost its maneuver, the iron cavalry lost its impact, and more than two hours of galloping and assault.

All of this made the tired army physically unable to sustain the battle any longer.

But their enemies are endless, but their main general is still at the forefront, and the soldiers will grit their teeth and hold on!

The young man of Liangguo's cheeks was mixed with tears and blood, his body could no longer exert the slightest strength, his head was swollen, and he was even unaware of the impact of the enemy's weapon hitting his armor, but his arm was still wielding a knife with a broken blade.

Sometimes, slashing at a charging enemy, bringing out a large pool of blood.

Sometimes, he slashed into the air in the open space in front of him and fell to the ground with his body.

If you fall, you will not be able to stand up again.

The formation of the Liangguo army under the gate of Tongguan gradually became chaotic.

Zhang Liao paced his horse, and every few steps on the chaotic battlefield were soaked in blood, and his last 5,000 foot soldiers had also pressed the front army, which could be said to be the hole cards, but he was still not completely sure whether he could take Tongguan.

However, at least one thing is good, and that is that the enemy's main general, 'Hua Xiong', has not yet withdrawn into the city.

This is his last chance to capture Hua Xiong and threaten the switch.

Zhang Liao has not forgotten that his current identity is ...... Rebel leader.

If the attack on Tongguan failed, Zhang Liao did not dare to imagine what the consequences would be, and the imperial court would never risk the rain and tearing the face of the Liangguo without Tongguan.

I'm afraid that even if I am not a rebel, I will be confirmed.

So it's a must!

Zhang Liao clamped the belly of the horse, the mount neighed all the way, dozens of riders followed closely behind him, and the sergeant in front flashed to both sides like chopping waves, Zhang Liao raised his knife and rushed straight to the middle gate of Tongguan!

Behind him, the big drum that reads "Summoning the Tiger General" hunts in the wind.

At the head of Tongguan City, Hua Xiong, who was supervising the army in Guanbei, stabilized the situation here, and suddenly saw a heroic cavalry in the rebel formation rushing towards the only son, and hurriedly ran to the city and frowned.

And this look, my head suddenly felt cold, but it's amazing!

Who is the rider who rushed forward?

Holding the Yunyue long knife, wearing a hood to cover most of the sides, but the face shape that seems to be a crescent moon can't deceive people...... Hua Xiong's hand was tightly clasped on the city stomping, and he ordered his subordinates to quickly send orders to Sanfu and quickly send reinforcements.

A face is sallow, making the Glaive Knife look like a Glaive Knife, who else can there be except for Zhang Wenyuan, a rebel general in the state!
