Chapter 399, heavy casualties

That night, Lü Bu led his troops out of Mengjin Ferry, and Zhao Yun sent people to send a message to the two righteous brothers, Nanlou and Huchuquan, and asked them to send 10,000 horses each to cooperate with Lü Bu.

After Lu Bu left, Zhao Yun's troops at the crossing of the Yellow River were only 40,000 people.

Turning the day, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao continued to launch a fierce attack, hundreds of large and small ships were moored on the wide river, some were as high as several zhang, there were pavilions, some were slender and long, just like weaving shuttles, the flags were lined with sails like clouds, densely spread all over the river, making people dazzled.

On the north shore of the Mengjin Ferry, Yuan Shao personally led the army to supervise the battle, he was eight feet tall, broad-shouldered and strong, wearing a crown of heaven, wearing a blue Shu brocade deep suit, a gold thread ribbon with jade inlaid edges at the waist, and a thick black cloud shoe on his feet, and he was dressed quite solemnly and elegantly. A pair of thick and thick eyebrows go straight to the sideburns, the eyes are large and bright, the nose is straight and the mouth is wide, the lips are red and the teeth are white, and the beard is slightly fluttering on the chest.

Yuan Shao is well-dressed, ring-wearing, and saber-wearing under his ribs, don't look at his age, his demeanor has not diminished back then.

Around him, the generals gathered, the soldiers were shining, and there were no less than hundreds of elite soldiers, like stars and moons, tightly clustered around Yuan Shao.

Looking at the boats on the river, Yuan Shao had a smug smile on his face, "Four days have passed, Meng De has also transferred his troops, we are both pronged, and attack at the same time, Zhao Yun's troops are limited, and now he can only be tired of coping, and it is expected that he will not be able to hold out for long." ”

"The lord is wise, the light of the rice grains can compete with the bright moon, Zhao Yun's mantis arm is not self-sufficient, where is the opponent of the lord." Guo Tu cranked the folding fan by hand, and did not forget to praise it.

"By the way, Fu Zhu, do you really think that Zhao Yun would dare to send troops to attack Yanmen Pass?" Yuan Shao glanced at Fu Zhu, and was suspicious, since the start of the war, Fu Zhu has been worried about this matter, saying that he would let Yuan Shao increase troops to Yanmen Pass, Yuan Shao asked Gao Gan to go to Yanmen Pass in person, but Fu Zhu was still not at ease, and repeatedly persuaded Yuan Shao, so that Yuan Shao was annoyed, so he had to reactivate Tian Feng and let Tian Feng go to Zhongshan to respond at any time.

Frustrated Zhu turned around, twisted his beard with his hand, muttered for a while, and said, "Lord, don't forget, last time, Zhao Yun took Yanmen Pass overnight, the defenders of Yanmen Pass suffered heavy casualties, even those who survived were all surrendered to Zhao Yun, until now we have no way of knowing how he did it, since he can succeed so easily, it is possible to do so, not to mention that the Southern Xiongnu has already become Zhao Yun's vassal, he can be from outside the Saiwai army at any time, and he can do it without knowing it, there are such convenient conditions, Does the lord think he will let it go? ”

Outside the plug is Zhao Yun's territory, no matter how long Yuan Shao's hand is, he can't stretch it out, and it is difficult for Dongshanwei's fine work to gain a firm foothold outside the plug, the people of the Southern Huns, whether they are Han people or local herdsmen, have lived there for a long time, and over time, they have been completely integrated into the life of the local herdsmen, and even can speak fluent Xiongnu dialect.

Saiwai is completely different from the Central Plains, the place is empty, there is no one for dozens or even hundreds of miles, suddenly a stranger came inexplicably, the goal is too obvious, and even survival is a serious problem, unlike in the Central Plains, a lively bazaar can be easily mixed in without being discovered.

It's really not good, hide in the deep mountains and jungles, you can also take action step by step, but you can go to the outside of the plug, as far as the eye can see, it is not a plain, or the Gobi Desert, the world is vast, there is no place for people to hide, and the local people only need three or two sentences to make you exposed.

Jia Xu did an extremely meticulous job of screening the enemy, and as long as he was not a local herdsman, he would be arrested as soon as he was discovered.

Even if Yuan Shao's meticulous work can be temporarily hidden, it is difficult for them to survive in the harsh and difficult outside the plug, there are often wolves infested, as long as someone is alone, the wolves will appear immediately, they can't hide at all, and it is a dead end.

In addition, there is no one for dozens of miles or hundreds of miles at every turn, it is difficult to find something to eat, and all kinds of unfavorable factors add up, which makes it impossible for Yuan Shao's meticulous work to carry out work outside the Saiwai, so Zhao Yun sent troops from outside the Saiwai, and Yuan Shao couldn't have a clue at all.

With such good conditions, in the opinion of Fu Zhu, Zhao Yun will definitely take advantage of it.

Gao Gan personally guarded it, and Tian Feng responded at any time, which was tantamount to closing the double insurance for Yanmen, and Yuan Shao was completely relieved.

……

Two days later, Lu Bu suddenly and mysteriously appeared outside Yanmen Pass, just like the last attack, still using the giant cloud ladder.

With only one face, Lu Bu led people to climb the city wall of Yanmen Pass, and after Gao Gan woke up, the whole person was stupid, "How is this possible, this is Yanmen Pass, how can the enemy come when he says it, and he has climbed the city wall before he can do anything, the Lord is really unbelievable." ”

Unable to get dressed, Gao Gan hurriedly put on his pants and climbed the city wall, he couldn't believe his eyes.

The dense Han army climbed the city wall like a tide, and the city wall was a few zhang high, and these people came up effortlessly, and when they got closer, he saw clearly that there was a huge cloud ladder outside, and the cloud ladder was built on the city wall, creating a slope that could be climbed by hundreds of people at the same time.

Yanmen Pass, which made many people deeply jealous, was like paper paste in front of the Han army, and they easily climbed the city wall and launched a fierce battle with Gao Gan's men.

I can't distinguish between the enemies killed by the state army, they are in a mess, some are holding weapons to resist, some are running around, some are going east, some are going west, screams, forgiveness, crying fathers and mothers resounded in the sky, trampling on each other countless dead, some of them were unstable under their feet and were pushed and fell down by their companions, the heavenly spirit cover was slashed all over the sky, the dead bodies were trampled into flesh on the ground, and there were pools of black and red blood everywhere.

The bow and crossbow and shield were no longer useful at this time, Lu Bu danced Fang Tian's painting halberd and rushed to the front, killing like a blood gourd, and even the color of his clothes was dyed clearly, Zhang Liao Gaoshun followed, swords and guns danced together, struggling to kill, and the enemy soldiers fell to the ground screaming one by one.

Swords, guns, swords, and halberds fought each other, clinking incessantly, and sometimes sparks burst out under the heavy blows, and the severed heads were kicked and rolled around, and the slashed arms and heavenly spirit covers flew all over the sky and sprinkled patches of blood rain, and the pierced chests and throats spewed arrow-like blood fountains.

The offensive of the Han army is like a storm, the momentum is like a rainbow, unstoppable, and the place where it passes sets off a bloody storm, and after a while, the state army can not stop it, scrambling to retreat, pushing and playing backwards, crowded and trampling, more chaotic than a hornet's nest.
