Chapter 1803: Meat Grinder
Chapter 1803: Meat Grinder
Even Li Cunxiao can think of blocking the door, and Gongsun Yan, who has an intelligence of 95, naturally can't think of it, but he thinks much farther than Li Cunxiao.
In Gongsun Yan's opinion, Li Tang's several major strategists are not simple, and even the method of demolishing the door has been used, can they not think that the Qin army will block the door?
Gongsun Yan felt that Li Tang must have a way to prevent them from blocking the door, so he proposed to Li Cunxiao to abandon Hangu Pass to prevent further falling into Li Tang's conspiracy.
Gongsun Yan's prudence was naturally not wrong, but he underestimated the impact of the loss of Hangu Pass and the status of Hangu Pass in Li Cunxiao's heart.
Seeing that Li Cunxiao was so resolute, Gongsun Yan knew that Li Cunxiao would never give up Hangu Pass before his hopes were completely shattered, and at the same time, he was secretly anxious in his heart, and he was also thinking about how to quickly seal the city gate.
"Yes, you can first block the city gate with sandbags and stones, and then pour it with cement, and after the cement solidifies, the city gate will naturally be sealed."
Hearing Gongsun Yan's words, Li Cunxiao was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Good idea, just do it."
The order was given to carry sandbags and stones immediately, and to block the city gate as quickly as possible. ”
"No."
Looking at the busy soldiers, Gongsun Yan's face was full of solemnity, and he whispered to himself: "I hope it can go well." ”
Outside Hanya Pass.
After Li Shimin saw the movement of the Qin army, he immediately smiled and said: "As expected by the military advisors, the gate of Hangu Pass collapsed, and Li Cunxiao really did not withdraw the army, but chose to block the gate. ”
"Li Cunxiao is the number one fierce general in the world, deeply trusted by Qin Hao, the king of Qin, and shoulders the heavy responsibility of guarding the west gate of Sizhou, how can he bear the loss of Hangu in his own hands? So he will stop at nothing to block the gates. Du Ruhui chuckled.
"And this is exactly what our army wants, just take this opportunity to consume the strength of the Qin army."
A glimmer of light flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, and he sneered: "You want to block the city gate of Hangu Pass under the nose of our army? It's not that easy.
The order went down, and ordered the chariot battalion to attack the city to stop the Qin army from blocking the gate, and at the same time, the Xuanjia army of the Flying Bear Army was on standby, ready to kill Hangu Pass at any time. ”
"No."
With Li Shimin's order, a large number of Tang army chariots marched towards the city gate.
These chariots made of steel are both offensive and defensive, and even the war horses that pull the chariots are heavily armoured, which shows that Li Tang has invested a lot in this army.
As soon as Li Tang's chariot troops moved, the catapults and archers on Hangu Pass immediately launched an attack downward, but the chariots were scattered, and it was difficult for the catapults to hit, and the crossbow arrows could not penetrate the chariots' defenses.
A small number of chariots were damaged after being hit by flying stones, and most of the chariots successfully rushed into the city gate, killing the Qin troops who were on guard and carrying sandbags and stones.
"General, it's no good, Li Tang's chariot has come in."
"What?"
Li Cunxiao and Gongsun Yan exclaimed at the same time, they knew that it was not so simple!
"Ben will personally go and destroy these tanks."
After that, Li Cunxiao took over the three divine soldiers Bi Yan Laos who were carried by his own soldiers, and Bi Yan Laos in his left hand and Yu Wang Lance in his right hand, led hundreds of elites to kill him.
The defensive power of Li Tang's chariot is still good, at least the Qin army's strong crossbow array is useless, but in front of Li Cunxiao, it is the same as paper.
Li Cunxiao waved the Yuwang lance, and under the slamming of all his strength, an intact chariot directly became tattered.
Li Cunxiao did not kill anyone, and after destroying one chariot in one blow, he destroyed several vehicles one after another.
If it is destroyed according to this posture, Li Cunxiao will be able to destroy Li Tang's chariot alone.
Da Da Da ......
A large number of horses' hooves came, and then I saw a large number of heavy horsemen wearing heavy armor and holding ring-headed swords into the city, which was the elite of Xiliang and the Flying Bear Army that shone during Dong Zhuo's period.
Along with the Flying Bear Army, there were also Li Yuanba, Yang Jian, Chai Shao, Hou Junji, Yin Kaishan, Kang Anyu and other Tang Army generals.
Li Yuanba, and Yang Jian, who had relieved his injuries after pranayama, teamed up to find Li Cunxiao again.
Except for the two of them, no one else in the Tang Army could face Li Cunxiao directly, after all, he was as strong as a fish, and he didn't die tragically in the hands of Li Cunxiao in an instant, and it was meaningless to die.
"Flying Bears?"
Gongsun Yan's pupils shrank suddenly, first the chariot, then the Flying Bear Army, the Tang Army was really well prepared, and it was difficult to block the city gate now.
Li Cunxiao was entangled by Li Yuanba and Yang Jian, and was powerless to be distracted and care about others, while Chai Shao and other generals cooperated with the Flying Bear Army chariot battalion and launched a fierce battle with the Qin army at the gate of the city.
Gongsun Yan's own strength was only 75 points, so he did not dare to fight these famous generals in person, so he could only personally command the army to block the Tang army.
Without Li Cunxiao's support, under the blows of many Tang armies, the Qin army paid a great deal of casualties, and the number of dead and wounded far exceeded that of the Tang army.
But when Gongsun Yan was dispatched from it, the four armies of the infantry, crossbow catapult and catapult cooperated tacitly, even if there was no general to boost morale and lead the team to rush and kill, it was still on par with the Tang army.
Just when the two sides were at a standstill, another large group of Tang cavalry rushed in, which was the world-famous Xuanjia Army.
"Order the Flying Tigers to dispatch."
Gongsun Yan decisively ordered to let the most elite Flying Tiger Army fight, after all, if it was hidden at this time, it would really be unbearable.
[Ding Dong, Li Cunxiao's skill 'Breaking the City' effect 4 is activated, when personally leading the army to fight, the greater the difference between the number of enemies and friends, the greater the increase in the combat power of the soldiers he leads (Note: This effect is the best effect on the 'Flying Tiger Army', and the upper limit of the number of the rest of the army is 5000). 】
The number of the Flying Tiger Army is far less than that of the Xuanjia Army, but with the blessing of Li Cunxiao's skills, the combat effectiveness has increased significantly, even in the face of the Xuanjia Army, which is double with his own, he will not show his advantage at all.
In this way, a fierce battle broke out between the Qin and Tang sides at the gate of the city, and the generals were against the generals, the generals against the soldiers, and the soldiers against the soldiers, killing rivers of blood and corpses all over the field.
Hanguguan was completely reduced to a meat grinder.
After two hours of fighting, Yang Jian's previous injuries recurred and he could only withdraw from Hangu Pass.
Yang Jian's retreat, Li Yuanba also had to retreat, after all, he alone was not Li Cunxiao's opponent, and forcibly leaving him was only a dead end.
As soon as Li Yuanba retreated, the other Tang generals had to retreat, after all, without Li Yuanba and Yang Jian, Li Cunxiao wanted to kill them without wasting his efforts.
Although the generals of the Tang Army withdrew, the number of troops pouring into the pass increased, and the death in battle became more anxious.
After Li Cunxiao rested for a while, he personally led the Flying Tiger Army to rush and kill, and under Li Cunxiao's charge, the Tang army's formation was quickly disrupted, and it began to be gradually forced out of the pass by the Qin army.
But at this moment, the Tang army generals went and returned again, and the offensive of the Qin army was stalled again.
In this way, the two armies of Qin and Tang fought for five hours, and the Qin army killed 5,000 soldiers, but they still failed to gamble on the city gate.
