Is it worth it? Guan Yu didn't know, so he didn't answer, he only held the Qinglong Yanyue Knife with his hand, supporting his body, even if he died, he never fell, he looked at Zhang Fei and went to Huangquan with his brother.

In the past, Taoyuan was three righteous people, and now life and death have been separated.

Xiao Lan saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help sighing, and ordered: "This Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are all heroes and heroes, and now that they have died on the battlefield, they will be buried together with the soldiers of the Taiping Army!" ”

"No!" The soldiers in charge of cleaning up the battlefield immediately took the order.

Xiao Lan turned around and took Dian Wei and Xu Chu to lead the troops, and the gate of Sizhou was already open, just waiting to break through the Tiger Pass, the entire Sizhou would have no danger to defend, and it would be easy for him to be in control. As for the remaining princes of Luoyang, to be honest, he really didn't take them seriously.

Five thousand elite horsemen, day and night, rushed to the tiger prison at dusk on the third day. The afterglow of the fall, under the reflection, he saw the tiger prison and the majestic pass, standing proudly, towering and upright, immovable like a mountain!

Tiger Prison Pass, Songyue in the south, the Yellow River in the north, the mountains are staggered, since the natural danger, from ancient times to the present, are the places where the soldiers must fight, the Xiongguan is built according to the mountain, the mountain is close to the mountain, it is natural, the mountain is steep, the terrain is rugged, the mountain road that turns and circles gracefully, it is difficult to move forward, and it is very difficult to break through the city pass.

At the beginning, the alliance of the princes of the Eighteenth Road, with an army of more than 400,000 people, was also blocked for several months under this majestic pass, not to mention, at this moment, there were only 5,000 cavalry under Xiao Lan's command, and the cavalry was not good at attacking the city.

Attacking can't be done, only outwitting!

Seeing Xiao Lan watching the tiger prison from afar, on the side, Xu Chu Dianwei and the two glanced at each other, but they didn't know how to comfort them, and they were secretly anxious, but they were still okay to let them go into battle to kill the enemy. But it's a bit too difficult for them to come up with a plan.

After half a ring, Xiao Lan asked in a deep voice to the left and right: "Which way is the prince guarding the Tiger Prison Pass now?" ”

One of the soldiers on the left and right came out of the ranks, and hurriedly responded: "Hello handsome." Responsible for guarding the Tiger Prison Pass was Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang, with a total army of 30,000. ”

"Wang Kuang, it's a member of the Yuan family!" Hearing the names of the princes of the two roads, Xiao Lan couldn't help but sigh, although he didn't want to. But he has to admit that the power of the wealthy families of the scholar clan is really intertwined, and it is unimaginably big, but he is afraid that at least two-thirds of the huge Eastern Han Dynasty has been hollowed out by these wealthy families.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Lan muttered: "Order, the whole army will camp on the spot and rest, and after tonight, raid the Tiger Prison Pass." ”

"No!" For Xiao Lan, the generalissimo of Pingtian. The soldiers of the Taiping Army were very respectful from top to bottom, and the military ordered, but in a moment, the whole army was encamped and rested in place according to Xiao Lan's orders.

Xiao Lan looked at the busy soldiers, the look in his eyes became more and more resolute, the cavalry siege was impossible, but after a little hesitation, he finally decided to take action in person. Breaking the defense of the tiger prison with the carved dragon gold seal, although there is a suspicion of cheating, it is the fastest and most effective way.

The cavalry marched quickly, but supplies were difficult. If it is a grassland cavalry, one person has several horses and can carry a lot of grain and grass, but this is the hinterland of the Central Plains, even if the Taiping army has occupied half of the country. There were also no enough horses, and they could be so extravagant that the cavalrymen under their command could have more than two horses.

One person and one horse, the weight of the war horse is limited, and there is not much grain and grass at all, so Xiao Lan knows very well that the battle of cavalry lies in speed!

Once the battle situation is stalemate, so that the defenders on the Tiger Prison are on guard, then, unless Xiao Lan shamelessly moves out the brilliant mecha, a super-era killer, otherwise, he can only wait for the follow-up army to arrive before he can further advance the troops.

Dong Zhuoxi went, Luoyang was in turmoil, Sun Jian, Cao Cao, Gongsun Zhan, Ma Teng and other princes suffered heavy losses and left, only the remaining Yuan Shao, Zhang Yang, Kong Rong and others also had their own thoughts, and it was difficult to work together, it was a great opportunity to deal with them, how could Xiao Lan allow this opportunity to slip away from his hands?

After nightfall, Xiao Lan ordered all the soldiers to wrap the horse's hooves with strips of cloth, and then used the cover of night to break through all the way to the Tiger Prison Pass.

In the Tiger Prison Pass, although Wang Kuang's 30,000 troops were guarded, in any case, Wang Kuang was afraid that he would not expect that the Taiping army would defeat Yuan Shu, Tao Qian and other six-way princes so quickly. In addition, when the princes' coalition army marched into Luoyang before, he was not able to follow the large army into Luoyang to gain benefits, so it was inevitable that he would be a lot slack off in defending the city, otherwise, Xiao Lan would not have been close to the tiger prison, and he didn't have the intention of being on guard.

Above the city tower, although there are still a few patrolling figures, but it is just a so-so errand, at this time, it is the time when people are most sleepy, and it is already very good to not fall asleep.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Lan slowly raised his hand, and saw a golden carved dragon gold seal appear in his palm out of thin air, accompanied by a reminder of his mind, and suddenly slammed into the city gate like a small mountain.

"Boom!" With a loud bang, the tall gate of the Tiger Prison was suddenly smashed alive, and the huge city walls seemed to be shaken and shook incessantly.

The sudden change made the defenders at the head of the city couldn't help but be stunned for a while, however, before they could react, a high shout came from not far away!

"The gates of the city have been opened, kill!"

The sound of the horn sounded, piercing the clouds and cracking stones, and suddenly broke the entire night sky, and the defenders at the head of the city came back to their senses and hurriedly looked towards the city in panic.

Through the glimmer of the torches on the head of the city, it can be seen that in the darkness, the ground is black, and a black shadow is overwhelming, moving rapidly towards the city wall, like a tidal flood bursting the embankment, trying to engulf the tiger prison alive.

"Oh no, there are thieves attacking the city, come quickly." For a while, the city wall was suddenly in chaos, some had just woken up, some were busy dressing and wearing armor, some were busy looking for hiding places, and some were busy preparing for battle, like ants on a hot pot, chaotic.

"The gate of the Tiger Prison has been broken by the marshal, and then it's time for us to go into battle, we can't lose the face of the Taiping Army's elite cavalry, rush!" Xu Chu rode on the war horse and shouted loudly, and the five thousand elite horsemen rushed towards the broken city gate quickly, with a fierce momentum, with the intention of seizing the pass in one fell swoop.

After all, even Xiao Lan, the generalissimo of the Taiping Army, went into battle in person, and these people, naturally, could not lag behind, and urged the horses to be radical one by one, vowing to win the first credit.

"Oh no, no, the thieves are attacking the city......" The defenders on the city wall, in the face of the overwhelming and surging Taiping army elite cavalry, for a while, in addition to desperately shouting, I don't know how to be good, and even many people have not yet fought, and have lost the courage to resist, after all, this battle has not yet been fought, and their own city gate has been breached, and the blow to the morale of the defending party is too big.

The noisy movement and noisy shouting made the Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang, who was fighting the belly of the woman, wake up completely, and he couldn't help but shout at the moment: "In the middle of the night, why is it so noisy outside, what happened?" ”

"Lord Taishou, something is wrong, someone in the city tower is in a hurry to report, and there are thieves attacking the city at night!" Hearing Wang Kuang's shouting, even a herald with a panicked face came to respond.

"What?!" Hearing this, Wang Kuang couldn't help but be taken aback, and hurriedly pushed away the woman beside him, hurriedly put on his clothes and armor, pushed the door out, and asked in a deep voice: "Where did the thieves come from, how many people are there?" How dare you attack the Tiger Prison at night? ”

"It's the Taiping Army, it's black, and I don't know how many people there are." The herald's face was pale, and in a panic, he couldn't even stop trembling when he spoke, and it was estimated that he could bite his tongue if he was not careful: "They don't know what means to use, they have broken the city gate, and now, I am afraid that they have rushed into the pass......"

"What?!" If Wang Kuang retained a bit of composure before, this sound was pure panic, as a prince, how could he not know what the breaking of the city gate meant to the defenders......... (To be continued.) )
