What was supposed to be an armory area has been transformed into a meeting place for the people who live here. Since the abandonment of this former Xiongguan in the world, a large number of people began to move into Hangu Pass and the surrounding locations to live, and it seemed to have become a paradise for a while.

But for the people who live here, Hangu Pass, which was once a military pass, is obviously not a place where people can live comfortably. After all, it was built to deter any possible threat from encroaching on Chang'an to the west of Hangu Pass or Luoyang to the east, as well as a series of large and small cities and villages along the way.

Naturally, it is impossible to have a sufficient number of living facilities like an ordinary city. If you hadn't even thought about what would happen if Hangu Pass was besieged, there wouldn't even be a well here. And after the people who moved in here have undergone some transformation, this place finally has a little bit of life atmosphere, and it looks more like a small town built in the middle of the ancient road than a pass.

It's a pity...

All this changed with the arrival of Liu Xie and the subsequent Xiliang Army.

Hundreds of soldiers of the Xiliang Army surrounded this place, and at the position of the gate, there were more than a dozen soldiers in Hangu Pass, and in the deeper position, about 20 people in the pass were curled up in fear, and some women and children even cried.

"Kill!" With an order, the Xiliang army outside was killed.

The soldiers in charge of guarding the place used the narrow entrance to defend it.

This armory is very building, and the entrance is narrow, if this is the case, it is not easy for the Xiliang army outside to rush in, at least from the perspective of common sense. It is a pity that the soldiers guarding the armory are already starving, one by one with empty stomachs, and many even feed themselves on bark and leaves, and do not have much physical strength at all.

At first, it was fine, but when it came to the back, I couldn't hold on anymore. However, after a while, these soldiers began to lose strength one by one, and they couldn't even carry the spears in their hands. How could the Xiliang Army outside let go of this opportunity, and immediately rushed forward with a laugh.

After about a quarter of an hour, the defenders inside were wiped out, and as for the people who were curled up in them?

Looking at these ordinary people who only knew how to cry, these Xiliang troops who had finally stormed the armory had no mercy, and the leaders even raised their swords in their hands.

The originally bright blade was already covered with blood at this moment. Just as they were about to deal with the people inside, there was a sudden shout of killing outside the armory.

Hearing this voice, the officer at the head couldn't help but pause. In his memory, the defenders in Hangu Pass should have been almost eliminated, and even if there were some resistance forces, they should be in other directions. How could it be that this sound could also be seen near the armory?

Before he could react to what was going on, he saw several figures suddenly appear at the entrance, and before the soldiers under his command could react, they had already rushed up and killed all the soldiers at the door.

"Who?!" Looking at the figures that suddenly appeared, the leading officer of the Xiliang Army asked.

He didn't know that the soldiers and horses of the Kwantung had arrived, and he thought that the people in front of him were actually the soldiers and horses in the Hanya Pass.

Unexpectedly, after those people killed the Xiliang army at the door, they ignored him, and just glanced at each other a little provocatively.

"Those for you, we have covered these..."The first to speak, it was the tiger and leopard rider who spoke, and as he spoke, he circled the space with his fingers, and divided most of the Xiliang troops on the opposite side into his side.

Who would have thought that the person who dared to be the first to hear this, but sneered instead. "Excuse me, we have limited time, so we don't have time to wait for you..."

Although the Qingzhou Army and the Yanzhou Army are allies now, the relationship between the two sides was definitely not good before, especially when they were in Xuzhou, and there were many bloody battles. Although they are allies this time, the two sides do not like each other. Because of the relationship between allies, the two sides can't do anything with each other, but it's also unpleasant.

There is no one on both sides, and there are only eight or nine people, not even double digits, so they don't take themselves seriously, how can the officers of the Xiliang Army not be like thunder.

With a shout, the Xiliang soldiers and horses under his command had already rushed forward.

Whether it is in the eyes of him or the Xiliang Army under his command, the Kwantung soldiers on the opposite side are only eight or nine people, and they cannot be their opponents at all, after all, the number is there, and it is really impossible to lose with such an overwhelming advantage.

However, before they could get complacent, they saw a tiger and leopard rider at the front with a ring knife in his hand, and the Xiliang army opposite him didn't even react, and he felt that the position of his throat seemed to be cold.

However, without waiting for the tiger and leopard to ride proudly at the Dare to Pioneer next to him, he saw that the person who dared to Pioneer had already solved several Xiliang troops on the opposite side, and there was no intention of wasting effort at all.

If this were outside, it might be a bit of a struggle for these people, but here...

The armory is a relatively small place no matter what, and it can't accommodate hundreds of people to fight here, in other words, there are only a few people who can really fight at the same time. And this is exactly what the elite of Dare to Pioneer or Tiger and Leopard Riding is best at. It was just a few dozen breaths, and I saw that the Xiliang army on the opposite side had already laid down more than a dozen people, on the other hand, the Dare First Army and the tiger and leopard on the opposite side were ridden, not to mention damaged, and not even a single one was injured.

Such an astonishing battle damage almost made the officers of the Xiliang Army on the opposite side think that they were still asleep.

"How is this possible!"

The officer wished it was a dream, a nightmare to wake up to.

Unfortunately, this is not the case...

Not only is he here, but in many places in Hangu Pass, similar things are happening at the same time, a large number of daring soldiers and tigers and leopards are pouring in, so that the Xiliang army was killed by surprise and abandoned their armor, and those soldiers and horses in the pass who are still resisting also escaped and ascended to heaven because of this.

It's just that...

Inside Hangu Pass, now there is a river of blood...

After being inhabited by refugees for so long, the houses in Kannai already have some living atmosphere. However, with the outbreak of war, the scene that was originally peaceful was gone. The hundreds of refugees curled up in the corner of the gate, watching two groups of soldiers and horses fight each other back and forth.

Naturally, in their hearts, they still hope that the official army can win, after all, they will be reduced to this point now, all because of the relationship between the Xiliang army. If it weren't for Dong Zhuo and later Li Dao and Guo Yan and others, I am afraid that they would still be living peacefully in their own homes, plowing the fields and weaving cloth every day, although they are poor, but at least peaceful, which is like now, the day is not safe...

Unfortunately, everything did not go in the direction they had hoped, and the officers and soldiers who thought they would be the saviors were first blocked in Hangu Pass, and then almost everyone fell into starvation because of the shortage of food.

Now, they were in those corners, hungry and afraid, watching what was happening in front of them. The only thing that makes them happy is that now both sides can't spare time to take care of them for the time being, but this is temporary after all...

When the officers and troops are completely defeated, I am afraid that they will not have any good fruit to eat...

Just when the situation in the Kannai was gradually becoming a foregone conclusion, things changed...

The eastern gate was opened by the officers and soldiers guarding there, and a large number of soldiers and horses poured in from it, and the costumes did not look like the officers and soldiers who originally belonged here, but more like they came from outside.

It can be clearly seen that these officers and soldiers are like two groups of people, and they are clearly distinguished. However, the two groups of people were equally brave and good at fighting, and as soon as they came in, they had already crushed the Xiliang army that was caught off guard.

Of course, this is not to say that the Xiliang Army is really so unsuccessful, but they didn't expect that there would be soldiers and horses at all. In addition, they finally entered the city, and they were already very tired, and in the face of the wolf-like daring army and tiger and leopard cavalry, it was natural that they were not opponents.

At the same time, Li Dao also learned the identities of these two groups from his subordinates.

"Qingzhou Army, Yanzhou Army, Yan Fuxian, Cao Mengde..."

Li Dao also has a deep memory of these two names. The former is okay, I just heard about it from other people when I was in the Sour Jujube Alliance, but the latter...

You must know that when he was in Luoyang, Cao Cao was very good with many people in the Xiliang Army. Otherwise, it would be impossible to gain the trust of the Xiliang army, including Dong Zhuo and others, and even Li Ru, a thoughtful person, did not discover Cao Cao's real plans.

And although Li Dao's friendship with Cao Cao is not deep, it is much stronger than many people.

"Lao Li, what should I do now?" With the influx of the Pioneer Army and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, the residence of the Son of Heaven has been firmly protected. In addition to these two batches of soldiers and horses, they are like wolves, and if they want to recapture the Son of Heaven, the difficulty has increased a lot.

Seeing that the soldiers and horses under the command of the two of them were almost no opponents in front of the tiger and leopard cavalry and the Dare First Army, Guo Yan was a little reluctant. It's not that he's going to give up, it's that he doesn't want to just be so tough.

However, after listening to his words, Li Dao said coldly.

"What else can I do, can you still just give up the Son of Heaven?"

"Two generals, don't argue..."Jia Xu, who had been standing next to him without saying a word, suddenly spoke.

"Oh?" The two of them looked at each other in unison. "What is your plan, sir?" But they were very respectful, after all, they were all very aware of Jia Xu's resourcefulness.

"It's not a good idea," Jia Xu shook his head. It's just that now that the Son of Heaven can't be recaptured, why not just give in and let them take the Son of Heaven away? ”

"Why did the gentleman say this, didn't this make them save the Son of Heaven?"

Soon a general next to him couldn't help but ask.

Everyone else is also in line with everyone, but after listening to Jia Xu's words, Guo Yan was thoughtful. Although Li Wei's reaction was a little slower, it was also stronger than the others.

"What do you mean, sir?"

"The Xiliang Army was originally good at cavalry warfare rather than infantry combat, and judging by the performance of these two groups of soldiers and horses competing with us in Hangu Pass, it is obvious that they are the elite who are good at infantry combat. If we are fighting with them in Hangu Pass like this, isn't it a short blow to a long one? ”

After saying this, Jia Xu took two steps back in silence, as if nothing had happened, and he had never said anything.

He actually knew very well that even if he didn't open his mouth, Li Dao and Guo Yan would ask him in the end. is expected to be so, so it is better to take the initiative to speak, which can also dispel some of the doubts of the two of them.

Sure enough, after hearing Jia Xu's words, both of them showed a sudden look.

"Mr. Gaojian, this is a strategy to advance and retreat..."

Just like Jia Xu said, what are the advantages of the Xiliang Army? It is a field battle, with countless war horses, the Xiliang Army has one of the most powerful cavalry corps at this time, and with the powerful cavalry corps, few people dare to compete with the Xiliang Army in the case of a field battle.

In comparison, infantry combat is not what the Xiliang army is good at.

Especially since this time they met an opponent who was not a soft persimmon, it was no wonder that Jia Xu would say that they were fighting long with a short blow.

"However, if we withdraw from Hangu Pass like this, wouldn't we give Hangu Pass to them, they are not the Son of Heaven, there is enough food, if they take Hangu Pass, it will not be easy to take it back."

This time, it was one of Li Dao's confidants.

However, before Li Dao or Guo Yan could speak, one of Guo Yan's generals had already said mockingly.

"Are you brainless? As Mr. Jia Xu said, we only need to get out of contact with the Kanto soldiers and horses, and there is no need to withdraw from Hangu Pass. Those Kwantung soldiers and horses came this time for the Son of Heaven, since they received the Son of Heaven, they will definitely find a way to bring the Son of Heaven out of Hangu Pass, and as long as they leave Hangu Pass for a generation, it will be equivalent to making our world, to the wild, with these Kwantung soldiers and horses, how can they be our opponents? ”

After hearing these words, everyone present showed a sudden look.

About a quarter of an hour later, the Xiliang army, which had been ordered, began to gradually break away from contact with the Kwantung soldiers and horses, and instead retreated to the direction of the west, holding the city gate and the city wall in their hands, but did not move towards the Kwantung soldiers and horses and the Son of Heaven who were close at hand.

However, these are not what Zhao Yun and others need to care about.

After seeing through the window that the Xiliang army had gradually retreated, a minister who had been lying in the window and observing the movement outside had already run back with some excitement and said loudly to everyone.

"The Xiliang Army has been repulsed, the Xiliang Army has been repulsed!"

"Really!"

"Oh my God!"

Hearing this, the other ministers in the room were also relieved.

Almost at this time, there was a sound of footsteps in the direction of the door, and just as everyone looked towards the door, they saw two figures appear in the direction of the door.

"Chen Zhaoyun..."

"Chen Xia Houdun..."

"Come and escort!"
