Chapter 461: Han Xin and Zhang He
It's also a strong attack, why didn't Zhang Liao capture Dagu in two days, and Bai Qi only took half a day to capture Dagu Pass?
The reason is very simple, Bai Qi found a defense hole with Zhu Wenzheng.
When Zhang Liao attacked for the first time, the battle losses of both sides were equal, and they both lost nearly 2,000 men and horses.
In the siege of the city in the next two days, the Han army suffered 6,000 casualties, while the Yellow Turbans still suffered 2,000.
Of the two thousand, 700 people died at the hands of Ran Min and other generals, which shows that Zhu Wenzheng threw at least half of his troops into it in order to suppress the generals of the Han army.
Zhang Liao wanted to reduce the damage to a minimum, so he maximized the general's bravery and used the siege method of soldiers to assist the general, but he didn't expect this to be self-defeating.
Bai Qi didn't do this, so he used the soldier-based siege method, but in order to confuse Zhu Wenzheng, Bai Qi still asked Ran Min and other generals to pretend to attack the city.
Sure enough, Zhu Wenzheng was fooled, he thought that Ran Min and the others would attack the city together, so more than half of the troops at the head of the city were sword and shield soldiers.
The contest between masters is often only a fraction of a centimeter.
Zhu Wenzheng is good at defense, but Bai Qi is also more proficient in attacking, so in order to seize Zhu Wenzheng's defensive loopholes, he directly adopted the most violent offensive.
There are only 6,000 soldiers and horses left in Dagu Pass, and with only 3,000 archers, it is naturally impossible to suppress the Han army.
And when Zhu Wenzheng realized that it was too late, Bai Qi didn't give him any chance, and sent all the generals to add another fire, and directly took the city in one fell swoop.
Later, this battle reached Qin Hao's ears, and it also caused Qin Hao to think deeply.
The same siege, the same troops, the same generals.
Zhang Liao used his troops as an auxiliary general, but as a result, he lost his troops and lost his generals;
Bai Qi thought that he would be a soldier, and the result was a complete victory.
It's just a reversal of the order, but it has a completely different ending.
Soldiers are the courage of generals, soldiers are the soul of generals, and in cold weapon warfare, it is still the low-level soldiers who fight.
Shortly after Bai Qi captured Otani Pass, the Yellow Turban reinforcements arrived at Otani Pass.
Considering that there was still the Yanzhou Yellow Turban behind him, Zhang Liao ordered Bai Qi to lead 15,000 troops to defend Dagu Pass in order to prevent the enemy from being attacked on his back, while Zhang Liao himself led the remaining soldiers and horses to fortify the Tiger Prison site.
Dagu Pass is related to the Sizhou grain route, so the Yellow Turban will never let the Han army take it away, and a major offensive and defensive battle is about to start again.

North of Mengjin, north bank of the Yellow River, Huangfu Song camp.
"General Qiyu, General Qin Jian was ordered by the Governor of Qin and Wen to lead 20,000 Bingzhou troops to help, and he has now arrived outside the camp."
After Qin Wen was given the title of Merge State Assassin History, the Yanmen Army was naturally renamed the Merge State Army.
"The fourth child of the Qin family is here? Great, Ben will personally go to greet him. Huangfu Song was overjoyed and hurriedly ran out of the camp.
Although the Battle of Changshe hit the Yellow Turban in Jizhou hard, the casualties of the Han army were not small, and now there are only nearly 70,000 soldiers and horses left under Huangfu Song, while there are 30,000 defenders in Mengjin Pass.
Mengjin Pass is surrounded by mountains on three sides and adjacent to water on one side, and its defense is not much inferior to that of Tiger Prison, so even if it is assisted by 10,000 water troops from Liangshan, Huangfu Song still has no absolute certainty.
In order to ensure that Mengjin could be captured, Qin Wen ordered Qin Jian of Yanmen to lead 20,000 elites to the south to come to help Huangfu Song.
The Qin family and the Huangfu family have a deep relationship, Qin Wen is a disciple of Huangfu Song's uncle Huangfu Gui, and both parties are also old acquaintances, and there is no dirt between them.
Huangfu Song grabbed Qin Jian's hand and said enthusiastically: "Qin Laosi, I know that you can't sit still, come and follow me into the account." ”
"I can't come if I don't come, brother, you don't know, that bastard boy in my family secretly changed his name for a woman, and he secretly changed his name without telling him Lao Tzu this time, ahh
Qin Hu changed Mu Guiying's name to Qin Wu, and after this matter reached Qin Jian's ears, he was angry with him, he went south this time to complete the task assigned by his brother, and the second was to teach his son a lesson.
In the camp, Huangfu Song and Qin Jian chatted without a word, and Wang Meng and Gao Shun, who came with Qin Jian, consciously stood at the end of the right column.
Han Xin was standing in the third to last on the left, and standing in the first place was his father in this life, Wei Jun Taishou Han Fu.
Looking at Qin Jian with a big grin, Han Xin muttered in a low voice: "The fourth master of the Qin family, who is famous in the northern Xinjiang, is too different from the legend, so he almost wrote the word 'unreliable' on his face." ”
Zhang He, who was standing behind Han Xin, heard this, laughed and whispered in Han Xin's ear: "Young master, don't underestimate this person, General Qin Jian seems to be honest, but he is actually shrewd." ”
Zhang He is currently a general under Han Fu, and Han Xin is the son of Han Fu, so it is natural to call Han Xin the young master.
Han Xin's eyes lit up and asked, "Do you know this person?" ”
Zhang He nodded and said: "Three years ago, Yanmen and the Xiongnu were in a big war, and the governor of Qin Wen sent Qin Jian to my Jizhou to borrow grain and borrow soldiers, and at that time Jizhou was also suffering from famine, so the lord was only willing to borrow soldiers and did not want to borrow grain. ”
"Bet on what?" Han Xin was curious: "Could it be a fighting general?" ”
The surprise in Zhang He's eyes flashed, and he said, "That's right." At that time, it was General Pan Feng who was fighting, but he was easily defeated by Qin Jian within 20 rounds, and the lord was forced to lend 30,000 stones of grain and grass for the sake of face. ”
"Wouldn't it? The big axe used by General Pan Feng weighs 100 catties, and he is a real enemy of 10,000 people, so he will be defeated by Qin Jian? ”
Han Xin really couldn't believe that Pan Feng had lost to Qin Jian, you must know that Pan Feng was the first general in Jizhou, known as the peerless general.
Han Xin frowned slightly, and after a little contemplation, he said, "Could it be that Qin Jian used the method of breaking through his skills to defeat General Pan Feng?" ”
"The young master's eyes are like torches, Pan Feng's big axe weighs 100 catties, and the one used is naturally a fierce move with a big opening and closing, but Qin Jian's 100 birds and phoenix spear take a dexterous route, and the move is dedicated to General Pan......"
Han Xin nodded, then looked at Zhang He, and said meaningfully: "Junyi, your marksmanship is also a clever route, and it stands to reason that you can also restrain General Pan Feng, but you are not my first general in Jizhou, it seems that you are clumsy." ”
Zhang He smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Young master, General Pan Feng is the benefactor of his subordinates, so how can his subordinates ruin their relationship with General Pan for the sake of false fame." ”
Han Xin smiled, he knew that Zhang He didn't like to fight, so he didn't ask much.
"By the way, the other two people of the state army, do you recognize them?"
"The expressionless one is Gao Shun. As for the scribe, the last general had never seen it. ”
"Gao Shun?" A hint of discoloration flashed in Han Xin's eyes, and he said with a little excitement: "Gao Shun, the leader of the trapping camp, must communicate if you have a chance." ”
Han Xin's performance was all seen by Wang Meng, and he secretly said in his heart: "This person is extraordinary." ”

Hangu Pass, Zhu Yuanzhang's camp.
"Waste, it's all waste."
Zhu Yuanzhang reconciled the generals and scolded angrily: "The 10,000 army can't stop a fool, you still have the face to come back, why don't you die on the battlefield!" ”
