Pei Gai personally led the army to leave Xingyang City, entered the Chenggao Pass, and camped on a flat ground, about five miles away from the pass. Immediately, he led Pei Wei, Tao Kan and a battalion governor to ride a horse up the mountain to see Guancheng.

Chenggao Pass is located in the remaining vein of Songshan Mountain, called big, the nearby mountains overlap, only the east and west can be passed, meandering, gradually getting higher, the mountain wall in the north of the Guanbei is steep, overlooking the Yellow River so it is also difficult to climb up from the side of the river. Tao Kan put his hand on the awning, looked left and right, and couldn't help laughing: "Hu Renguo is not used to guarding danger. ”

He pointed out to Pei Gai: "The mountains on the left and right are steep, but since the pass, when there is a small road to pass, if you can build more camps, each other is the momentum of horns, then the road to clear the customs will be covered within the range of the bow and arrow, one step at a time, it is difficult to cross." Then he smiled: "But if the thief sets up camp, he can also see it under the mountain, and I will wait until now, when there are arrows shot to ......."

Pei Wei didn't know how to fight in battle, but the plan outside the plate was not under Tao Kan, and he couldn't help laughing when he heard the words: "Maybe it's not that the Hu people are not used to guarding dangers, it's just that this pass has not been defended for a long time, and the fortresses on the ridge should be abandoned, and the pass has stopped thousands of defeated troops, and it is no longer possible to divide the camp and stand." Chao Pei Gai arched his hand: "Therefore, please make the king attack this pass quickly, if you wait for the Hu army to help, it will be more difficult or a hundred times." ”

Pei Gai nodded, and then said: "Since there is no camp on the ridge, there are no arrows so far, I can go forward a mile or two and watch closer." He really hated that there were no telescopes in these years, but if he thought about it carefully, if he could find some natural crystals and ask a famous craftsman to grind out two lenses, it should not be very difficult, this thing will definitely not be mass-produced in this era, but at least he can match one, and it will be enough.

At this time, in Chenggao Pass, only Liu and Liu Dan led the remnants of less than 2,000 people, and when they saw the Xuzhou military flag in the east, which almost obscured the glory of the rising sun, everyone was terrified. Immediately, I saw more than a dozen horsemen on the opposite side of the mountain road, slowly walking, about two arrows away from the pass, pointing there, Liu Guang couldn't help but itch, so he said to Liu Dan: "The person who wields the cane and scolds must Pei Caiye villain ask for an order, lead the fine horse out of the pass, and go to take his life!" ”

Liu Dan waved his hand and said: "Ah Guangxiu wants to be reckless, Pei should dare to come to peek at my reality, how can there be no guards beside him?" I think they are all strong people. Attacking rashly, I am afraid that the soldiers will be damaged, but it will not help......"

Liu Guang said with a smile: "How can adults be timid after a defeat?" Stretching out his hand, he said: "The mountain road is dangerous and narrow, and it is difficult to accommodate the brigade, so Pei should only bring these ten to ride." I will lead the elite forward, and even if I can't take his life, I should cut off one or two horsemen to scare the thief. Pei should be just a weak-crowned scholar, if he is bold, he may not dare to attack Chenggao, and it is unknown. The so-called 'narrow road meets the brave wins', don't adults know the courage of villains? ”

Liu Dan pondered for a long time, but still refused to let Liu Guang go to battle, and Liu Guang went down the pass with a snort. The time was not long, only a drum was heard, and then I saw the door wide open, and more than a dozen horsemen rushed out......

Liu Dan was shocked: "This son is becoming more and more difficult to control!" "Urgently order all the elites to be mobilized to the gate, ready to reinforce and respond to Liu Guang at any time.

Besides, Pei Gai immediately pointed out with a bamboo cane in front of everyone, peeking at the situation, Tao Kan warned: "Let the king take a few steps back, if the thief switch attacks, I am afraid that the king will be injured." Pei Gai smiled: "Tao Jun is too cautious. The thief has been captured, how dare he get out? And the mountain road is dangerous and narrow, a husband deserves it, and ten thousand people can't open it, but is there no brave general next to me? ”

Before the words fell, I suddenly heard the sound of drums on the opposite side, and sure enough, the door was closed and opened, and a cavalry rushed out. Pei Gai still smiled: "Unfortunately, as Tao Jun said, it can be seen that among the thieves, there are also brave men." On the surface, the clouds were light and the wind was light, but in fact, he really didn't dare to be too big, so he immediately reined in his horse slightly, took a few steps back, and avoided Zhen Sui to the side of the mountain road, and could only go to the two of them in parallel, but fortunately, the current position was slightly wider, so as not to be completely blocked into a "long snake formation".

Zhen Sui was overjoyed, immediately crossed Pei Gai, rode forward, and shouted: "Zhen Sui is here, which thief dares to come to fight against the master?!" ”

On the other side, Liu Guangcai came out of the pass, so he took off the bow from his back, filled it with a shot, and aimed at Pei Gai's face door and shot it fiercely. When Zhen saw it, he immediately raised the spear in his hand, looked at the momentum of the feather arrow, and when the spearhead was put on, it was stirred, and he shouted in his mouth: "The pearl of rice grains also shines!" ”

If you want to say this, Pei Gai said it from martial arts in his previous life, and when he said it casually in this life, Zhen Sui felt that this sentence was powerful, full of force, and he was smart, so he learned it immediately, and he took it out at every turn. only heard the sound of "click", and the arrow fell to the ground, and it was only three steps away from the ultimate goal Pei Cai.

Pei Gai couldn't help but close his eyes, then opened them, shook the bamboo cane in his hand, and asked Zhen Sui with a smile: "Do you remember the story I told you about raising an uncle?" ”

Yang Uncle is Yang Youji, who is the archer of the Chu State in the Spring and Autumn Period. In the battle of Jin and Chu Yanling, the Jin general Lu Yi's arrow hit the eye of the king of Chu, and the king endured the pain, called Yang Yuji, gave him two arrows, and asked him to avenge himself. Yang Youji only opened a bow, and with an arrow, he hit Lu in the throat, shot him to death, and then returned the remaining arrow to the king of Chu.

Pei Gai meant, there is a bastard to shoot me hey, although I didn't hit. Zhen Manzi, don't you usually boast that your archery skills are unparalleled, right? Why don't you learn from Uncle Yang to shoot this fang and avenge me?

Who wants Zhen to follow the words, but pouted: "It's a mess to supervise this!" ”

If you change someone, maybe you will just follow your fate with your brain, and most of the end will not be good...... Zhen Sui seems to be rude, but in fact, he has brains, and he refuses to listen to Pei Gai at all. Because here is only a little more than two arrows away from the gate, two hundred paces, the other party has already sent an arrow, and the fast horse is coming in an instant, do you want me to draw the bow and shoot at him again? I'm afraid that before my bow is drawn, his spear will pierce my heart, isn't that death? Besides, I'm good at foot shooting, and it's hard to pull the longbow on my horse, so I can't jump off my horse again and expose you behind me?

Zhen Sui did not follow the "chaotic life", did not take off the bow at all, but stabbed Liu Guang in the chest and abdomen with a fierce spear. At this time, Liu Guang led more than a dozen Hu cavalry also pulled their bows and released arrows, and Liu Yetang and others behind Pei Gai took bows to shoot, but because the mountain road was narrow and their own people were blocked in front, they couldn't aim accurately, and none of them hit.

Pei Wei panicked, and took the lead in turning the horse away, fortunately, he was already at the end; Tao Kan also held the bow in his hand, but he was only on strict guard, but he did not shoot back. Pei Gai has also practiced arching horses for several years, but he is not timid, and he pretends to wield a bamboo cane and arrow, but unfortunately he failed to draw one, and of course none of the arrows can hit him.

In the blink of an eye, Zhen Sui and Liu Guang handed it over. Because the road is narrow, the two can't hedge against the wrong horse, Liu Guang instinctively slowed down when he galloped close, and as a result, the two horses were blocked in the middle of the mountain road, and the two stabbed each other with spears, and they didn't even have a place to hide, so they all instinctively freed their left hands and grabbed each other's spear bodies. It's like a tug-of-war, each poking and topping, and I can't help but be secretly shocked in my heart: This thief is so powerful!

But there is only great strength, Zhen Suiben is not skilled in horse warfare, and Liu Guang is taking advantage of the long knife, so he can only use brute force in vain. Liu Guang had a plan, twisted his wrist with his right hand, and broke it to the side, intending to wait for the opponent's center of gravity to be unstable, then let go of the two spears, and shove the enemy general off the horse, and then he drew his knife to cut Pei Gai behind. Pei thief, are you really bold, or are you panicked? At this time, if I don't take the blade, how can I cut off the three-foot bamboo branch in my hand?

But who would have thought that as soon as he twisted his wrist and before he could let go, the enemy general flipped to the side and dismounted. Liu Guangxin said, sure enough, the southerners are not used to riding horses, and they can't sit on the saddle bridge at all, which saves me things.

It's a pity that he thought about it, Zhen Sui is not as good as him in equestrianism, but with stirrups as a supplement, he will not fall down after such a small trick, in fact, he took the initiative to jump off the horse by taking advantage of the situation. Zhen Suixin said that this guy on the other side has a lot of strength, I am not easy to borrow strength on horseback, and I am really undefeated, the key is that the war horse can't run, and the tricks are difficult to perform, so simply, the master will get off the horse first, and I can only exert seven successes immediately, and the horse is twelve points.

Because it was not a stumble, but a deliberate one, Zhen stood firmly as soon as he got off the horse, and immediately bent his knees, kicked the ground, and used his strength to operate on his arms, and at the same time exhaled and spoke, "Ha" with an angry shout. Liu Guang had never seen this kind of fighting, and his reaction was slightly slower by half a beat, and he felt a strong force coming from the two spears at the same time, although he let go, it was not timely enough, and he was still pulled forward and leaned forward. He was a rider, and when his balance was unstable, he instinctively clamped his legs on the horse's belly, who wanted to even be unable to resist the huge force of Zhen Sui, and even led people and horses, and with a "boom", it collapsed immediately like a hill.

Zhen dismounted, Liu Guang overturned, and the vision of both sides immediately broadened. Tao Kan made a hand like lightning, twisted an arrow sharply, pulled the bow half full, and with a "whoosh", he shot the second Hu Qi behind Liu Guang into the dust. In fact, at this time, if Hu Qi releases arrows again, I am afraid that Pei Gai's life will be in danger, the problem is already approaching, they are all habitually abandoning bows and arrows and taking knives and spears, ready to fight hand-to-hand, no one thinks about releasing arrows not only them, but also Liu Yetang and others behind Pei Gai, who still hold the bow in hand, is only Tao Shixing.

On the one hand, Zhen Sui pulled Liu Guang and the horse to the ground, Liu Guang's spear had already been taken off and fell to the ground, one leg was pressed by the mount, and it was difficult to break free for a while. The Venus in front of Liu Guang's eyes was pumped, and his head "buzzed", and he was unconscious.

On the other side, Tao Kan fired three arrows in a row, killing three enemies in a row, and the rest of the Hu cavalry was so frightened that they quickly turned their horses and fled towards the pass.

Pei Cai raised his bamboo cane and waved it fiercely towards Chenggao Pass: "Go down the mountain quickly, immediately attack which battalion is the fastest to assemble, and I will make which battalion take the lead!" ”

Liu Guang switched to rush Pei Gai, as Liu Dan said, the mountain road is dangerous and narrow, and Pei Gai must be guarded by a brave man, if he wants to provoke surprise, he has to build Qixun, the possibility is not great. Liu Guang's original intention was to take the opportunity to attack and kill one or two enemy warriors and drive Pei Gai down the mountain, so as to greatly defeat the enemy's momentum, and also boost the morale of his army, which can play a certain auxiliary role in guarding the pass, otherwise he really has little confidence to hold Chenggao Pass.

It's a pity that his luck is too bad, he met Zhen Sui, and he was captured by Zhen Sui as soon as he saw him...... Pei Gai also thought of this layer, and knew that at this moment, it was the time and the war of this year, and the main thing to fight for was morale, so he hurriedly went down the mountain, and his fate was about to attack.

As a result, it was Zhen Sui who came out on top.

When he was still in Xingyang, Zhen Sui held back his strength to ask for an order to capture Chenggao Pass, and the first battle was taken away by the waste Gaole's "martial arts battalion", which is unbearable! originally thought that they would be pioneers, if they met Xiaokou, it would be difficult to make great achievements, and if they met a big enemy, they had to rush to help, and the first merit would not be able to escape...... If the merits of the second battle still can't fall into the hands of my "fire robbery camp", will the master still have the face to shout and drink in front of Gao Le in the future, and walk sideways?! Therefore, he had already selected more than 100 elite foot soldiers, prepared fast knives and big shields, and just waited for the governor to give an order, and planned to personally lead them to Chenggao Pass.

So Liu Yetang and the others were still busy selecting the soldiers who dared to fight, and the queue of the death squad on Zhen's side had already been lined up, so with Pei Cai's order, he took the lead, holding a knife in one hand and a shield in the other, and rushed straight up the mountain. It was planned to be a bloody battle, and half of the troops might be destroyed, but who wanted to rush to the gate in one go, but did not encounter the slightest resistance......

Liu Guang was originally the son of Liu Dan, a powerful general under his command, and commanded his cronies, and at present, there is still a little morale in Chenggao Pass, and this Liu Dan is the same team, so Liu Guang was captured in battle, Liu Dan was immediately frightened, and the soldiers were also frightened. Seeing this situation, Liu knew that Chenggao was difficult to defend, so he took the lead in escaping by horse, and Liu Dan and others immediately beat their horses to keep up, and in the blink of an eye, Chenggao Pass became an empty base......

Zhen is depressed, and he doesn't guard the pass, anyway, there will be an army behind him, and he will chase after him from behind, and he will chase after him from behind, and all the dozens of defeated soldiers will be hacked to death by him. No matter how much it can't be cut, Hu Juntai has half a horse and no horse, so it is impossible to follow Liu and Liu Dan from the gutter and water to escape here in one breath Ah Zhen Sui said that as long as he spread the joy and competed like a galloping horse, after all, he was just boasting, and the two-legged one still couldn't run four-legged.

Pei Gai led the army to climb the mountain, passed the pass without stopping, met Zhen Sui, who was panting heavily, and directly pursued more than ten miles and attacked Chenggao City. Liu They didn't dare to enter Chenggao, the defenders in the city were less than 1,000 people, so they immediately removed the Han flag and changed to the Jin banner, and the city should have been prepared a long time ago anyway.

Pei Cai entered the city, couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh, and said to Guo Mo: "Sure enough, as Qing said, it is easy to capture Chenggao!" Guo Mo complimented: "The courage of Governor Zhen is really no less than Han Zhiguan and Zhang Ye!" ”

When he had settled down in the city, he ordered: "Bring up the captured thief!" ”
