Keiguan, Shouyang Mountain and the Black Mountain Pass across the north and south. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhang Xiu and Pang De are just a small episode before the war between the two armies. Zhang Liao, like Cao Ren, was in the process of puniting the army before the big war, trying to boost morale for the big war.

Under the Keiguan, Cao Yingzhong, push the cup and change the lamp. Cao Ren raised his sword in his hand and walked to the high platform. The loud voice resounded through the audience, encouraging the soldiers' fighting spirit.

The cold wind swept high and the wind hunted the ground tooth flag. At night in the mountain pass, the cold style is fierce.

A burly and fierce man, carrying a spear for ordinary soldiers, dressed in coarse linen clothes, and wearing a tattered leather hat, was 'patrolling' in the east of Cao Ying, which had been set up for dozens of miles in the mountains. Cao Ren's army is not a newly captured cannon fodder-level strong man like them.

"Stop." Suddenly, a group of well-patrolled Cao soldiers passed by, and saw this Xinding leading dozens of soldiers who were also equipped with Xinding, and their weapons were brushed against them, and shouted.

"Cipher." The big man took the lead in asking rhetorical questions, and at the same time, he led his subordinates to move more quickly, and with a hula sound, the soldiers uniformly drew their spears and aimed them at the elite of the Cao army.

"Butcher."

"Who is that unit, Shangguan?" This newcomer exuded a strong killing intent, which shocked Cao Bing's heart. At the end of the day, the new man explained: "The overseer feasted on the three armies today, and there may be enemy troops in the camp. ”

The leader of the patrol team felt that something was wrong, and a new member of the other party actually interrogated him, and said dissatisfiedly: "Who are you?" That troop? ”

"Open your dog's eyes and look!" The newcomer took out a side from his waist and shook it with General Pingnan's order: "This will be the overseer's personal decision to inspect all Dazhai." ”

Captain Cao Jun only saw this token golden, exquisitely made, and magnificent, and he didn't know the words on it, so he believed it a little. How could an ordinary soldier have a gold-forged seal? Still puzzled, he asked, "Why is Shangguan wearing a new ding costume?" ”

"Are you blind? Didn't you see the labor and management come back from the Xinding camp? Wearing a suit of armor, the enemy can't hide in detail, can you find out the details? The big man said angrily.

"Shangguan is angry, and his subordinates know their mistakes."

"Lead the way, I will continue to patrol and make secret visits in the camp."

Such a new man is none other than Pang De, who was captured by Cao Jun as grass cowards and used as cannon fodder after the troops were dispersed. Pound's troops were all disorganized into battalions. With his current dozens of subordinates, it is impossible to play a little role in Cao's army, and Pang De is gathering the old troops in Cao's camp.

With such a low-level captain of the Cao army leading the way, Pang De was unimpeded in the Cao camp, and began to inspect the battalions with a swagger, except for the important generals of the Cao camp, Pang De did not dare to go, and in the peripheral cannon fodder camp, Pang De showed a familiar face.

Zhang Liao led the army to advance to twenty miles outside the Kei Pass, and the Cao army camped across the pass, the flags inside and outside the Kei Pass were displayed, the soldiers were cold, and the thick murderous aura was washed in the air.

Both the Cao army and the Chang'an army were killed from countless battles, blood and fire, and this kind of scene only made them excited, without fear. Both sides are battle-hardened warriors. Perhaps Cao Jun occasionally failed in several encounters with Lu Bu. But Lu Bu Xuchang burned the city, and the people and gods in Cao's army were angry, and there was only boundless anger in their hearts.

Both sides fought against each other, waiting for the arrival of all the assembled armies to start a big battle, and only sent a few soldiers to attack tentatively or curse each other every day. When both sides are not ready. On this night, the wind was urgent. The strong wind blew Zhang Liao and stood in the field of Yuanmen. Zhang Liao was worried, the flag broke for no reason, but it was not a good omen, and when he was summoning the scribes to analyze the omen, twenty miles away, inside the Kei Pass, the fire was soaring into the sky.

Zhang Liao hurriedly led everyone out of the tent to climb the heights to watch, only to see in the distance in the pass, Cao Jun's figure shaking, crying and shaking the sky.

"What trick is Cao Ren playing again?" Zhang Liao asked Xiang Jia.

Jia Xu was also at a loss and puzzled by the unknown.

"Newspaper. A column of Cao troops rushed out of Jiguan and was being captured by our army. The other party claimed to be the headquarters of the Pingnan general Pang De, claiming that the Pingnan general Pang De was setting fire to the grain in the Cao camp and had taken advantage of the chaos to open the gate. I don't know the truth of the lowly position, so I specially ask the general to decide. One of the generals rushed up to the heights and shouted.

"Hurry up and attack." Zhang Liao didn't have time to analyze, so he quickly gave an order, personally rushed down the hillside, and led the army to kill Jiguan.

Zhang Liao also didn't care whether the army was assembled or not, and led the army to launch a rapid attack on Keiguan. In the lead, a large number of Xiliang cavalry took the lead in killing the pass. I saw a fierce battle at the gate. The cavalry rumbled and only rushed through the pass. A general with a spear in his hand saw Zhang Liao rushing to the front of the cavalry, and admiration rose in his heart.

"The last general, Pound. Cao Jun's arrangement has been investigated. Cao Ren's ten camps are staggered and unbreakable. The big tent of the Chinese army is located in the northeast, come with me. Pound gave up holding on to the gate, turned around and took a war horse, and reflexively killed inside.

At this time, a large number of Cao soldiers dared to come when they heard the news, desperately blocking the Xiliang cavalry from breaking through. Buy time to close the door. Countless Cao troops rushed from the gate and inside the village to launch a suicide attack on the Xiliang cavalry.

Cao Ren mobilized the Youzhou cavalry and the Wuhuan cavalry at the same time, and fiercely collided with the Xiliang cavalry.

The war horses collided, and the horse's hooves stepped on the corpse of the opponent's head, as long as they fell off the horse, they immediately spat blood from their mouths and their clothes and armor were stained with blood. The two sides strangled together, and under the closed door, the horse corpses and human corpses piled up, trampled by the war horses to the point of rotting their intestines, and the flesh and mud swamp reached knees deep. In a short period of time, both sides suffered heavy casualties, and the two sides continued to emerge follow-up troops to fight for the closure.

The corpses piled up more and more, the blood flowing all over the ground and the spilled pieces of flesh made it difficult for the horses to gallop.

At this time, Lu Bu stayed in the rear and rushed to the crossbow battalion. The heavy armor soldiers dismounted and fought on foot, like a moving city wall, pushing towards the pass. Losing his strength, Wuhuan started to fall to the ground and slaughter. The hoplites rolled forward like meat grinders, unstoppable.

"Reinforcement!"

The two sides were red-eyed, and all the orders were only two words, that is, to increase troops to Keiguan. It's a battle-taker. Both generals lose their minds, and as long as one side holds out to the end, it is a victory.

Finally, a steady stream of Cao troops arrived, and the heavy armor soldiers of the crossbow battalion gradually became tired, and they began to lose strength in wielding sharp knives. Cao Ren saw the hope of victory, as long as the opponent's vanguard heavy armored soldiers were annihilated, it would only take a moment to recapture the gate.

Cao Ren once again gave the order, at any cost, without sparing the lives of the soldiers, regardless of death. Ordered the Qingzhou soldiers who stayed behind to charge.

The heavy armor finally broke down, and under the command of the opposing general, they began to retreat to the rear. Cao Jun let out a tsunami-like excitement. In the next moment, Cao Jun, who had just been excited, would hit the bottom. Behind the heavily armored soldiers, a fierce general, with eyes like lanterns, held a bully gun as thick as an arm in one hand.

This fierce general came out, and the soldiers behind him were all fierce and not afraid of death, did not form a battle formation, everyone fought separately, rushed into the Cao army, exchanged their lives for their lives, and fought completely without their lives. Cao Jun panicked.

"Zhang Liao's elite has been exhausted, and he actually transferred Li Damu from Lu Bu's Tooth City to the front line!" Cao Ren suddenly raised his voice and shouted angrily: "Soldiers, the elite of the enemy army is exhausted, victory is just around the corner, follow me!" ”

Cao Ren personally went into battle, and the three first-class fierce generals of Zhang Liao, Wei Yan, and Pang De also went into battle in person and charged Cao Jun fiercely. The two sides are not ready, and they start a life-and-death, desperate battle.

However, Cao Jun sacrificed more than half of his life, and he only felt that the opponent was like a god possessing him, and he was not afraid of death in the face of it, and he no longer had the courage to fight and kill. Looking at the opposing general in fear, he began to retreat with a wincing.

Cao Ren roared angrily, and the Warlord couldn't stop the dense Cao army from retreating, and he was desperate.

"The whole army retreats!" Cao Ren was finally unwilling to roar: "Zhu Ling, full of favor, Lu Zhao, Lu Qian, retreat fifty miles back and camp, and then fight a decisive battle with the enemy in Hanoi County!" ”

It is impossible for the army to retreat smoothly in its entirety. Most of them will be hunted to death. But Cao Ren had to give such an order, and it was better to withdraw part of the troops than to annihilate the entire army. However, he entangled the other large battalion soldiers behind him and resisted again. Cao's army quickly withdrew from Keiguan under the command of Cao Ren.

Retreat to Hanoi. Cao Ren called Sima Yi, Hanoi County is the nest of the Sima family, although it was destroyed by Lu Buzeng, after several years of development, the Sima family once again made Hanoi up.

"Neither side is ready for this battle. Zhang Liao was also caught off guard. Losing two battles in a row, Zhang Liao dispatched the elite in this battle, just to move back to the disadvantage. Otherwise, the Chang'an soldiers will lose consecutive battles, and there will be no need to continue fighting. Although he won for a while, he also suffered heavy losses. Fortunately, all the ordinary miscellaneous soldiers of the other army have not yet arrived, otherwise our army will be even more dangerous. If he prepares to charge, he will defeat his defeat at Keiguan, and his miscellaneous troops will cover up and kill, and I am afraid that he will defeat our army in one fell swoop. Sima Yi said.

Sima Yi talked for a long time, but Cao Ren didn't hear the slightest constructive suggestion, and couldn't help but get angry: "Then what to do now?" ”

"The army of Chang'an, the north is strong and the south is weak. Coach Lu Bu was in the Southern Army. So, in one word, consume. The city of Jizhou is dense, as long as Zhang Liao is not allowed to drive straight into Yecheng. The first to hold on was Lu Bu in Jingzhou. Jingzhou Lu Bu has few troops and horses, and he must not be a rival. What the general has to do is to give the prime minister a stable rear, so that the prime minister has no worries about Lu Bu. ”

"You mean, we're fending off?"

"Hmm. The morale of Zhang Liao's army is high, and although our army is brave, against the soldiers of Chang'an, it will be defeated in every battle. There was a lot of fear among the soldiers, and it was the best policy to stick to the city and gradually deplete the morale of Zhang Liao's army. ”

Cao Ren nodded, accepting that Sima Yi should be the main guard.

The next day, the pursuers came, and the first thing to do was to set fire to Cao Ren's grain and grass in Keiguan, and Cao Ren was furious at the cholera army camp Pang De. This reckless man with an inconspicuous reputation made him lose his troops.

Lu Qian was ordered, rode out of the battle, and fought with Pang De.
