Chapter 55: Out of the Customs

A few days later, 40,000 follow-up troops entered Hangu Pass.

After the capture of Hangu Pass, Zhang Lang's situation was greatly improved, and the defensive pressure on the east side was greatly reduced. However, the operation of assaulting Hangu Pass is undoubtedly also flawed, this operation will definitely divert Yuan Shao's attention, and after the loss of Hangu Pass, Yuan Shao will have to strengthen Luoyang's defensive forces, and even change the previous strategic deployment!

Chun Yuqiong fled back to Luoyang with the remnants of the defeated army.

Tian Feng, who was in charge of guarding Luoyang, was taken aback, and while strengthening the garrison of Luoyang, he sent people to report to Yuan Shao, who was fighting with Gongsun Zhan.

However, Tian Feng was not too worried about the safety of Luoyang, because Luoyang had 100,000 defenders, and Tian Feng didn't think that the 50,000 Lu Bu army on Hangu Pass could pose much of a threat to Luoyang!

His gaze turned to the big tent of Yuan Shaojun in Youzhou.

Yuan Shao was shocked when he learned the news of the loss of Hangu Pass, and he was about to lead his army back to Luoyang.

Xu You hurriedly stopped, "Lord, now that you are about to defeat Gongsun Zhan, how can you give up your efforts?" Luoyang has 100,000 defenders, and there are generals such as Gao Lan and Zhang Jaw, while Lu Bu was held back by the Qiang rebellion with a large number of troops, and there are only 50,000 troops on Hangu Pass, which is impossible to pose a threat to Luoyang! You should quickly break through Gongsun Zhan, and then return to Luoyang to fight a decisive battle with Lu Bu! ”

Yuan Shao pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "What Ziyuan said is very true!" Raising his head, he said categorically: "Order the three armies to attack Gongsun Chan urgently!" "No!"

On the same day, Yuan Shaojun poured out of the nest. Yan Liang led the army to attack the left flank, Wen Chou led the army to attack the right flank, and Yuan Shao led the main army, with the first deceased soldier as the vanguard to attack head-on! Gongsun Chan couldn't resist and retreated again, and Yuan Shao took advantage of the situation to capture most of Youzhou, encircling Gongsun Chan and his remnants in Yijing.

The gaze turned back to Hangu Pass.

Zhang Lang stood on the Hangu Pass, looking at the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains outside the pass, and the moonlight was full of enchantment! Zhang Lang couldn't help but feel a sigh of emotion in his heart, and muttered: "There are so many rivers and mountains, and countless heroes have bent their waists!" ”

"Big brother!" Suddenly there was a call behind him.

Zhang Lang turned around in surprise and saw Dong Ying in military uniform standing not far away. couldn't help but be surprised, walked up to Dong Ying, held her slender hand, put it to her lips and kissed it gently.

Dong Ying's eyes trembled and looked at Zhang Lang, her delicate face was slightly red, it was really rare for this heroine to show a shy demeanor!

"Why are you here?" Zhang Lang asked puzzled.

Dong Ying glared at Zhang Lang angrily, "What?" Don't want me to come? ”

"Hopefully! Of course I hope! I must not tie you to me!" ”

Dong Ying smiled happily, "I led the female soldiers under my command to bring you grain and grass!" That's right. He then took out a letter from his waist and handed it to Zhang Lang, "This is what Mr. Jia Xu asked me to give to you." ”

Zhang Lang took the letter, opened it, read it, and nodded. Putting away the letter, he took Dong Ying's hand and ran towards the government office, "Let's go, let's drink!" ”

Dong Ying sat on Zhang Lang's lap, and the two of them were talking and laughing while drinking, I don't know if it was the effect of alcohol, and the flame of desire gradually rose.

……

Early the next morning, Zhang Lang got down from the bed, covered Dong Ying, who was still asleep, with a quilt, kissed her on the cheek, and left the room. Dong Ying was unaware of Zhang Lang's departure, last night's madness exhausted her energy, and she was too tired.

Zhang Lang summoned 10,000 light cavalry and 30,000 infantry troops under his command to go out of the Tiger Prison Pass and kill in the direction of Luoyang.

A few days later, they arrived at the city of Luoyang.

Not to be outdone, the defenders led 30,000 troops out of the city with Gao Ran and Zhang Jaw respectively, and confronted Zhang Lang in two formations, left and right.

Zhang Lang rode his horse to the front of the two armies and shouted: "Yuan Shaojun's rats, who dares to fight me to the death?" A loud voice echoed over the battlefield, with a kind of arrogance that was in the world! Yuan Shaojun's officers and soldiers changed color, and Zhang Lang's soldiers were greatly boosted and shouted in unison!

Zhang Jaw frowned, urging the horse to rush out of the military formation, Yuan Shaojun couldn't help but boost his morale when he saw this, and shouted!

Jaw and Zhang Lang fought together, but after only a dozen rounds, they were already at a disadvantage! Although Zhang Jaw is known as the Four Courtyard Pillars of Hebei, in front of Zhang Lang, he is like a wolf who has encountered a tiger, and he is controlled everywhere, and he is in danger!

Gao Ran saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly rushed out of the military formation and attacked Zhang Lang with Zhang Jaw. The two generals circled around Zhang Lang like a marquee, and the big knife and spear desperately beckoned to Zhang Lang, and the sound of the collision of weapons mixed with the roar of the two generals resounded in the sky! Zhang Lang blocked left and right, coped with it freely, and looked calm!

After fighting for more than a dozen rounds, the two felt that the other party was like a Tarzan, and they felt that it was difficult for them to win, and their foreheads couldn't help but overflow with sweat.

The corners of Zhang Lang's mouth were raised, and he let out a shout, and the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand smashed into the air towards Gao Ran, and the tiger was full of momentum! Gao Ran was shocked, hurriedly raised his knife to block the frame, and there was a loud bang, Gao Ran only felt a huge force slamming down, and the war horse couldn't help but kneel forward, and Gao Ran was almost thrown off!

Zhang Jaw was taken aback and hurriedly swung his gun to attack Zhang Lang. Zhang Lang blocked the spear, glanced at Gao Ran, who had reined in the war horse, Fang Tian's painting halberd turned in his hand, Gao Ran was taken aback when he saw the cold light flying in, and hurriedly dodged, the crescent blade instantly tore Gao Ran's shoulder armor, and blood splashed out!

Zhang Jaw attacked again, Zhang Lang avoided sideways, and shouted, Fang Tian's painting halberd slashed out with the power of Wan Jun, Zhang Lang hurriedly blocked, the whole person was so shocked that he almost fell off the horse, and the spear flew out far away! At this time, Gao Ran had already fled back to the main formation, and he didn't dare to fight, so he hurriedly urged the horse to flee towards the main formation!

Yuan Shaojun saw that his two generals were defeated at the same time, and he couldn't help but be afraid in his heart.

Zhang Lang raised Fang Tian's halberd and pointed forward sharply. 10,000 iron horsemen immediately rushed out, surging towards Yuan Shaojun like a monstrous giant, followed by 30,000 foot soldiers! The roar was earth-shattering, and the earth rumbled!

Yuan Shaojun hurriedly met the battle.

The iron cavalry instantly slaughtered into Yuan Shao's army, the iron hooves surged, the cold light flashed, and the soldiers of Yuan Shao's army were cut to the ground one after another! Fear surged into my heart, and some of Yuan Shaojun's soldiers began to flee, and the scene was chaotic!

Yuan Shaojun finally couldn't resist the ferocious attack of Zhang Lang's army, and the army was defeated like a mountain, throwing away his armor and dragging the flag and fleeing towards the city.

Zhang Lang led the army to chase and kill all the way, killing Yuan Shaojun's corpses all over the field until outside the city gate. A dense rain of arrows suddenly fell on the city wall, shooting at the feet of Zhang Lang's army. Yuan Shaojun hurriedly fled into the city, and the city gate was immediately closed.

Zhang Lang won a big victory and returned to the camp.

In the lobby of the Luoyang Governance Office, Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran looked like wolves, and Gao Ran was still wearing bandages. Others looked worried.
