Lu Bu was defeated, and Dong Zhuo was not in Guanzhong.

The hundreds of thousands of troops in the Tiger Prison Pass were in chaos.

In order to keep the Tiger Prison Pass, Zhang Ji ordered to abandon the soldiers who did not enter the pass and made a cannibalistic move.

All the Xiliang soldiers who forcibly rushed to the door died at the hands of their own people.

The bows and arrows of the Xiliang soldiers shot not at the enemy, but at their own people.

Dong Zhuo led the troops out of Yongliang and promised to make meritorious contributions. Now......

Countless Xiliang soldiers had grief in their hearts.

The rain of bows and arrows made the Xiliang cavalry dare not squeeze into the Tiger Prison again.

The drawbridge was gradually pulled up, and the closed door was gradually blocked.

The Xiliang cavalry, who did not enter the customs, could only stand in front of the moat and look away.

The towering city walls and majestic city gates, even though they could block the Dong army, they also blocked them.

At this time, the cavalry of the Dong coalition army, under the command of the princes, has retreated to the battlefield one after another, and even the heavy armored cavalry under the command of Zhou Cang is no exception, and they have gradually withdrawn from the battlefield.

Further on is the wall, "The cavalry shall not storm the city." ”

Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Zhang Yang, Wang Kuang and others' soldiers and horses lined up with crossbowmen and shot at the Xiliang soldiers who were still outside and did not enter the city.

The Xiliang soldiers stood in front of the Tiger Prison Pass, without any resistance.

They are waiting for death, waiting for the arrow to fall on them.

Within half an hour, most of the Xiliang soldiers were dead and fell into the moat.

Liu Fan and the princes of all walks of life stood on their horses and commanded hundreds of wooden carts blocked by iron sheets to run towards the moat.

The car was filled with wood, dirt, and boulders.

At the front is a fence covered with iron sheets to prevent arrows from falling from the castle tower.

When they reached the moat, several soldiers pushed the wood and stones in the vehicle into the moat.

One cart may be inconspicuous, but ten carts, hundreds of carts, continuous back and forth, soon fill the ravine.

The source of the moat is the water of the Yellow River, and the entrance has long been blocked by the Dong coalition army.

One hundred and fifty steps away from the Tiger Prison Pass, dozens of prepared heavy crossbows were pushed onto the battlefield.

These are three-bow bed crossbows that can fire three arrows at a time.

Crossbow arrows were placed on top of the bed crossbow. The arrows are made of hard wood and feathers of iron, and are the size of javelins.

Under the order of the general, the bed crossbow was turned by dozens of wrestlers and shot towards the tiger prison.

The three-bow bed crossbow can shoot a thousand paces away, and its power is amazing. It is a big killer in the field.

Most of the city walls of this era were made of earth ramming, even the Tiger Prison Pass.

The first wave fired hundreds of crossbow arrows, all nailed deep into the walls.

After one round, another round. Hundreds of "javelins" were driven into the city walls.

As long as the moat is filled, the soldiers of the Dong army can also use this to climb the Tiger Prison Pass.

"When the moat is filled, will Ben Chu do what he said, take the soldiers as the vanguard, and capture the Tiger Pass."

The armies methodically prepared siege equipment and wanted to launch an attack on the Tiger Pass.

Liu Fan and the princes from all walks of life stood in front of the Tiger Prison Pass, and they pointed to the Tiger Pass from afar and said to Yuan Shao.

"I dare not forget that there are pioneers and invincible generals under my command. Under the strong attack, the Tiger Prison Pass can be taken in a few days. ”

If you don't fulfill what you have said in public, you will be spurned by all people.

Even if his head was broken and bleeding before the Tiger Prison was smashed, he had to break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

Who would have thought? Lu Bu, who was like a ghost, was defeated by the tiger prison and defeated by Liu Fan.

Look at Liu Fan again!

I am calm and proud of the heroes of the world!

The princes of all walks of life were very vigilant in their hearts, they were afraid that Liu Fan had commanded the army for a long time and infected their army. In the future, the soldiers and horses will no longer listen to them, but to Liu Fan, then they will have no place to cry.

At the moment when Liu Fan and Yuan Shao were talking, many princes were willing to take the opportunity to withdraw from the Dong coalition army.

"Wise choice. Although the Tiger Prison Pass is strong, this dangerous city is also. All my subordinates are cavalry, and they are not good at attacking cities, otherwise I will never give you this earth-shattering credit Yuan Benchu! ”

Liu Fan said with a smile.

And Yuan Shao could only smile awkwardly, scheming in his heart how to capture this tiger prison.

……

Hedong.

North Beiqu County.

Yesterday, Huang Zhong received instructions to cross the river and enter the east of the river.

Today, Huang Zhong has led 10,000 cavalry across the Yellow River.

The military order he received was not to attack Anyi in the south.

Instead, they bypassed Anyi and attacked Caoyang Ferry.

Caoyang Ferry is the important lifeline of the Yellow River, the north and south into the Yellow River, in this section of the Yellow River, its strategic significance is second only to Fenglingdu, Linjin Pass.

When Huang Zhong relied on the maneuver of one man and two horses to go south to Hedong.

A cavalry of tens of thousands of people entered Hedong County.

Thriller counties!

This is another main force under Liu Fan, led by Zhao Yun and with Jia Xu as the military division.

Among them were 20,000 cavalry, 10,000 cavalry, 5,000 dragon cavalry, and 1,000 camps.

As soon as they entered Hedong County, the army was non-stop.

Under the banner of Liu Fan, the army crusaded against the traitors and recovered the township.

Along the way, the county commanders of Hedong were afraid of the strength of the Han army, and they all opened the city and surrendered.

The people cheered, wiped their tears and waved their hands.

When the Han army arrived in Wenxi County, Niu Fu, the general of Hedong, received a large-scale cavalry attack on Hedong.

Niu Fu guessed that this was Liu Fan's soldiers and horses, and only Liu Fan in the north could recruit so many cavalry.

At this time, there were 10,000 cavalry and infantry in Hedong and Xiliang. There are also 5,000 soldiers and horses, all of whom are Hedong soldiers and horses.

After receiving the news, Niu Fu's side sent people to fortify the city gates.

On the one hand, he sent someone to Luoyang to report to Dong Zhuo.

However, the envoy sent by Niu Fu to inform Dong Zhuo was quietly robbed and killed by the army not long after leaving Anyi.

On the road from Anyi to the Yellow River, the Cangyun Scouts ambushed here.

The Cangyun scout team has a small number of people, and it has already been mixed with Anyi.

Maybe Niu Fu will find out that something is wrong in two days, but by then it will be too late.

Jia Xu didn't let Niu Fu breathe for a moment.

After arriving in Wenxi, he sent Gao Shun to lead the camp as the vanguard. Take advantage of the dusk moment and run to the north gate of Anyi.

The rest of the cavalry followed.

Dark night, in the city of Anyi. In a houseyard.

"General Jia contacted us and captured Anyi today. The Iron Rider will arrive at any moment. Once the drums outside the city sounded, we stormed the north gate, broke the thief army, and opened the city to lure the rebels into the city. The return of the benevolent lord is a great blessing for the fathers and villagers in the east of the river. ”

A man in armor, about thirty-five years old, looked around at the group of soldiers beside him.

The man is Cao Xiao after many years. Liu Fan's first battle of fame was fought with him.

Cao Xiao is now the Sima of Hedong, and the soldiers around him are all Hedong Qu, controlling most of the local soldiers and horses in Hedong.

Dong Zhuo's subordinates burned, killed and looted, which was deeply painful, and the soldiers of Hedong were very resistant to these outsiders, but they did not have the strength to resist.

And Liu Fan, a fellow villager, strengthened his troops in the north, so that the generals of Hedong saw the opportunity.

However, the soldiers in Hedong were scattered everywhere, resulting in 8,000 soldiers and horses in Xiliang in Anyi City, and only 1,000 soldiers in Hedong.

At this time, Niu Fu was not worried that the soldiers in Hedong were guarding the city, and those guarding the four gates of Anyi were all Xiliang soldiers and horses.

Anyi is a strong city in the world, and it can be defended for a long time by relying on nearly 10,000 soldiers.

What the defenders of the city are most afraid of is not the enemy's 100,000 soldiers, but their own counterattack.
