Under the light of the blazing torches, Xia Houyuan secretly complained in his heart after hearing Cao Cao's words, although Cao Cao was speaking in a consultative tone, did he dare not agree?

The enemy's 30,000 iron cavalry is approaching, but he only has 500 soldiers guarding the pass, which in Xia Houyuan's eyes is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg!

Although this Donghan Valley Pass was built when it was built because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty liked pomp, it was built as magnificent as the Great Wall of Qin.

The mountains of South Vietnam arrive at Lu Hun, turn over the high ridge in the north according to the Yellow River, there is only one thing to go to and fro, and then it has been damaged after the war, although when the Yellow Turban Chaos Emperor Ling reset the eight passes and headed by Donghan, so the imperial court has repaired many of these passes.

But at present, he only has a mere 500 people, but he is afraid that he is not even satisfied with the battlements, and what is even more terrifying is that these 500 people are not the elite soldiers of a hundred battles that he has trained.

If they saw the 30,000 enemy troops rushing up in the dark, God knows if they would blow up the camp in panic? At that time, let alone guarding the pass, I'm afraid that I won't even have a chance to run.

Thinking of this, Xia Houyuan swallowed a bitter saliva with a shaken throat, and said to Cao Cao with his fists clenched: "At the moment when our army is in danger, the lord has entrusted Yuan with a heavy responsibility to live and die with Donghan.

It's just that Donghan's military status is important and the number of troops is small, and he hopes that the lord can quickly transfer a large army to help after he returns, and before the reinforcements arrive, he also asks the lord to leave the general to help Yuan to guard the pass together. ”

Cao Cao was embarrassed when he heard this, Luoyang at this time was an important place in Beijing, and if there were fewer soldiers, he was afraid that there would be trouble, and he moved against Huafei's Guanzhong Fourth Route Army this time.

A total of 100,000 troops were dispatched, but there was no return due to the enemy's mistake, and now there were less than 40,000 people left in Luoyang City, led by Cao Ang and Xun Yu and others to defend the imperial city.

Although Cao Ren and Xia Houdun each led 80,000 troops to sit in Yan and Henan Prefectures respectively, but after all, it was inconvenient to move far away, and it was too late in time, but they didn't know how to answer Xia Houyuan's request.

At this time, the "boom" in the west of Xiongguan gradually sounded, Cao Cao hurriedly led people to go up to the pass to watch, but saw the black pressure of the enemy under the moonlight coming in the cool breeze.

"Close the door quickly, and let everyone go to the gate to defend!"

Cao Cao felt great pain in his heart when he saw this, knowing that Cao Hong and the three of them must have been more than lucky, and he was worried that Pang De's knife would sink quickly, so he immediately gave an order.

"Boom!"

"Hurry up, all go to the city to prevent the enemy from taking the pass!"

In the loud noise, only the door of the first line was closed, and the guards shouted loudly and ordered the troops to hurry up to the gate.

Cao Cao drew his sword out of the sheath and stood on top of the city with his head held high, looking like he was ready to lead by example to lead the 500 guards and the 30,000 iron horsemen of Huafei to start a decisive battle on this Donghan.

Seeing this, Xia Houyuan hurriedly grabbed his arm and shouted: "The lord leaves quickly, and this place will be handed over to a certain and Lejin and Li Dian to defend, you can quickly return to Luoyang to transfer troops to support Donghan." ”

"Heaven damn Xia Houyuan! Lao Li and you have no grievances in the past, and there is no enmity in the near future, and you have not burned incense and worshiped heaven and earth with you, so what are you doing if you have nothing to do with Lao Tzu? ”

Guan Shangle Jin held the battlements and watched the gate, but Li Dian was completely stunned with his mouth open, he really couldn't figure out that whenever Mao was in danger, these bastard colleagues would always count him?

Guo Jia is like this, and Xia Houyuan is the same, this is obviously always forcing himself to death, could it be said that he has offended these two unconsciously?

Just when he felt that since gentlemen didn't stand under the dangerous wall, Lao Li couldn't stand under the dangerous wall.

Thinking of this, he was ready to make a suggestion to Cao Cao as a fist, but suddenly saw Guo Jia, who had been whispering to Lu Bu on the side, first said to Cao Cao in a loud voice.

"Lord, Jia has already asked Feng Xian, he was ordered by Wen Ruo to mobilize the defenders of Donghan to help the lord, and Wen Ruo has always been meticulous in his planning, so Jia thinks that since he already knows that the lord is in danger, he must have a backhand."

"That's right," Cao Cao said with great confidence when he heard this, "Wen Ruozhi's talent is no less than the ovary, and he must have made the right arrangements for the disadvantage of our army." ”

Saying that, he paused slightly, and then asked Guo Jia: "But now that the enemy army has approached the city and the reinforcements sent by Wen Ruo have not yet arrived, we are afraid that we will not be able to defend Donghan, but what should we do?" ”

"The lord is shocked," Guo Jia, who was only dressed in dirty clothes, waved his hand lightly, "Yijia seems that although the enemy army is approaching the pass, it will definitely not wave the army to seize the pass immediately, and we still have a lot of time to wait for the arrival of reinforcements and make sufficient preparations to guard the pass." ”

"Guo Saijiu, don't be careless," Dian Wei on the side said in a loud voice with wide-eyed eyes when he heard this, "These damned enemy iron horsemen have been chasing us for hundreds of miles from Xihan Valley Pass non-stop.

Now that they have chased this Donghan Valley Pass, it shows how resolute they are in wanting to destroy us, how can you determine that they will not attack the problem immediately? ”

"Haha......"

Guo Jia laughed loudly when he heard this, and laughed so much that Dian Wei, Lu Bu and others were inexplicable, but Cao Cao and Li Dian were smiling.

Guo Jia laughed for a while before he closed his voice and said to Dian Wei, "General Dian, there is a way that the whole army is for the upper and the lower for the siege, and you also said that the enemy army is all cavalry and has chased me for hundreds of miles.

And this Donghan Valley Pass is the head of the eight passes in Luoyang, and it is absolutely impossible for them to carry siege equipment with them in light cavalry pursuit, so what do they use to attack Donghan Valley Pass?

Can they still fly up the gate with their wings out? Moreover, Jia heard Feng Xian say that the chasing Pound had fought with his army at the Fengling Ferry.

It can be seen from this that Pang De must have arrived at Xihan Valley Pass after the battle with Fengxian, and even the night march arrived at Xihan Valley Pass, can it be said that they will not be tired at all if they are all beaten with iron? ”

"Is this ......?"

Dian Wei, who had thick limbs, was speechless for a while.

Cao Cao laughed loudly in his heart: "What Feng Xiao said is true, the enemy cavalry is indeed unable to tackle the key problems, but since you have already expected that the enemy army will not be able to tackle the key problems, why did you say that you have to do the matter of guarding the pass?" ”

"The lord has misunderstood," Guo Jia clenched his fists and said, "Jia is expected that the enemy cavalry will not attack the attack immediately, not that the enemy cavalry will not attack the attack, if we only use this area of 500 people to guard the pass, how can the enemy army not fight to win the pass?" ”

Cao Cao was uneasy when he heard this, so he frowned and asked again: "However, I only have more than 500 troops here right now, can it be that you can still conjure up a living person?" ”

Guo Jia pointed to the east with a slight sigh and said, "Didn't the lord forget that there is a city not far to the east, called 'Valley City'?" ”

"Although Gucheng is close, because there are garrisons in Donghan, Cao does not have a heavy army in the city, so Gucheng is a place where there are no soldiers." Cao Cao groaned in the direction of Guo Jia's finger.

Then he asked Guo Jia puzzled, "What is the reason for Feng Xiao mentioning Gucheng at this time?" ”

"Pang Lingming, what did you say? Lao Hu ran for a day and a night, and he almost vomited his lungs before he ran here, but you told Lao Tzu that he couldn't win the pass now? Do you want to make the heart of Lao Hu come true? ”

Guo Jia was about to reply to Cao Cao's questioning, when he suddenly heard someone shouting at the pass, but it was Pang De and Xu Chu who led the army to the west gate of Donghangu Pass, and saw that Xiongguan was majestic and the gate was closed, so they discussed the current situation with Xu Chu and Hu Che'er as Guo Jia expected.

Xu Chu has been with Hua Fei for a long time, and naturally knows that Hua Fei will never risk his life to attack dangerous passes, so he has no other opinions, only Hu Che'er shouted loudly with great grievances.

Although Cao Cao heard Hu Che'er's shouts, he stared at Guo Jia unmoved because he knew that they didn't have siege equipment.

Guo Jia was about to tell Cao Cao about his plan, but unexpectedly heard the sound of horses' hooves in the west of Xiongguan, and someone shouted under the cold moon: "The lord has an order to convey, where are the three generals Xu Chu, Pang De and Hu Che'er?" ”

Cao Cao, Guo Jia and others hurriedly stopped all the sounds, stretched their necks and put their hands to their ears, wanting to hear what kind of orders Hua Fei would bring to the three generals? (To be continued.) )
