At this moment, whether it is for the Youyan army or the imperial court officials, there is no longer any tactics, the enemy and us are fighting together, and there is no room for any conspiracy and trickery.

The entire Tongguan has turned into a flesh and blood mill, depending on who has more blood and thicker flesh on both sides, and can hold out until the other party falls first.

The first to fall were the imperial court officers and soldiers.

The officers and soldiers suffered from the enemy on their backs, and their morale was repeatedly hit. Although the veteran Bai Wenbo personally engaged in hand-to-hand combat on the wall, there was no leader in the group of dragons under the gate.

On the other hand, in the Youyan Dao army, not only the prince Zheng Rong was giving orders in the high-rise buildings in front of the pass, but the two sons Zheng Sen and Zheng Miao and the two most effective generals under his command were also commanding on the front line.

These people have accumulated rich combat experience in the past years of operations, and have grown into excellent generals who have their own strengths but are not inferior to any of the generals of the Han Dynasty. In particular, the rebellious general Cui Nan was slightly injured on the head and shoulders, but he still broke through the gate of Tongguan with arrows and stones, and met with the court officials and soldiers in front of the battle, which greatly boosted morale.

Zheng Rong, the king of Youyan, also knew that the vanguard led by Cui Nan was the key to the breakthrough of Tongguan by Youyan's army, and constantly sent elite troops to support, and finally slowly turned the situation to his side.

The two sides fought under Tongguan for three full hours, from the time to the end. Zheng Rong hastily had lunch by himself, thinking that the soldiers before the battle must be hungry at this moment, so he hurriedly ordered Zhong Likuang to quickly transport the grain and grass.

Zhong Likuang saw that there were many restaurants and inns in the town on the east side of Tongguan, so he ordered someone to pay an extra silver tael, and bought all the fine foods such as meat buns, sauce meat, and dim sum, and sent them to Cui Nan at any cost after they were steamed uniformly.

Cui Nan is also worthy of being a famous general, and when he was fighting with the enemy in close quarters, he actually had the spare strength to rotate the front-line soldiers and return to Tongguan to eat. After these soldiers had had enough to drink, they quickly recovered their mental strength and returned to fighting.

But the official army of the imperial court did not have such a good treatment, Bai Wenbo worked hard to resist the attack of Youyan's army, where did he still have the heart to strengthen logistics? As a result, most of the officers and soldiers could only resist on empty stomachs.

Finally, I don't know which of the officers and soldiers has the most food and yells: "Damn! Lao Tzu is working hard here, and he doesn't send some food over, so Lao Tzu is gone! With that, he threw down his saber and walked back.

His departure was not good, and a large number of forbidden officers and soldiers also withdrew. Seeing this, the Youyan soldiers who were mixed in the official army also took the opportunity to raise their voices.

All of a sudden, the officers and generals were no longer able to restrain the soldiers, and the positions of the officers and soldiers were suddenly in chaos.

How could Cui Nan let go of such a rare opportunity and enter the enemy formation without saying a word. When the guards and soldiers around him saw him, they were also busy guarding the left and right, fighting with the enemy. When the soldiers of Youyan saw that the main general was still so desperate, their morale suddenly rose, and they shouted slogans and killed the officers and soldiers.

The imperial court officials and troops were no longer able to resist the surprise attack of Youyan's army, and finally dispersed in a hurry and were defeated.

Cui Nan has always been known for his sharp attacks, and he is even more ruthless in chasing and defeating the army. But when he saw the corpses, wounds and blood all over the ground under Tongguan, he finally sighed and only asked his soldiers to consolidate the defense line and no longer wave his army to pursue.

The forbidden army who was still fighting on the top of Tongguan saw that their comrades under the pass had run away, and their morale suddenly collapsed, and they no longer resisted, and they all threw down their weapons and knelt down to surrender.

Bai Wenbo, who led the army to fight, saw that the general trend was gone, and finally gave up resistance, and did not raise his hand to surrender, but only led a few loyal cronies around him, sat on the sandbag next to the wall, and waited for Zheng Rong, the king of Youyan, to fall.

Qiu Yizhi, who was under house arrest by Bai Wenbo, was in the Tongguan Arrow Tower, and saw the entire development of the war clearly. He saw that Youyan's army had taken the entire Tongguan, so he led Yu Chi Lianghong, Zhao Chengxiao and others out of the arrow tower in a hurry.

The officers and soldiers of the imperial court who were originally responsible for guarding him had already run away, so Qiu Yizhi was surrounded by everyone and was about to calmly go down to greet his father-in-law, Zheng Rong, the king of Youyan.

However, before Qiu Yi went down, he met his third brother Zheng Miao.

It turned out that Zheng Miao knew that according to his father's temper, he would inevitably go to Tongguan to inspect the battle situation as soon as possible, and he was afraid that there were still court officials and troops in the pass that were not controlled and prone to accidents, so he personally led the army to sweep Tongguan, and only then did he meet Qiu Yizhi halfway.

Although Zheng Miao and Qiu Yi are not brothers, they grew up together, and their affection is extraordinary. However, since the beginning of this year, Qiu Yizhi was first ordered to go south to crusade against the rebellion of the Tianzun Sect, and then risked his life several times to go deep into the tiger's den in Longtan, Luoyang, the capital.

Therefore, Zheng Miao saw that his righteous brother appeared here, and his heart was surprised, he rushed forward in a few steps, held his hands, looked up and down several times, and saw that he was intact, so he smiled and said: "Brother Xian is really unfathomable, I am fighting hard under the pass, and Brother Xian is actually sitting firmly in Diaoyutai......"

Zheng Miao's personality has always been calm, but he barely made a joke, and he thought that Qiu Yizhi's trip was really a life of nine deaths, and he couldn't help choking up: "The virtuous brother is loyal to his father, and the foolish brother also admires it." Just don't be so risky anymore......"

Qiu Yizhi knew Zheng Miao's good intentions, so he nodded and said, "Little brother knows......" and said, "My father-in-law, is it also closed?" The younger brother happened to go to meet him. ”

Zheng Miao calmed down a little and replied, "Father is commanding from the high-rise building outside the gate. Presumably, he will go upstairs to inspect it soon, so the virtuous brother will go to see him. The foolish brother still has to clean up the battlefield, so he won't accompany him. ”

Qiu Yizhi listened, thinking that instead of going down now, it would be better to wait for Zheng Rong to go to the pass, and then meet Zheng Miao together, so it would be easier to talk, so he smiled and said to Zheng Miao: "Since this is the case, there is no hurry." The younger brother still knows a little about the situation in Tongguan, so it is better to assist the elder brother first, do a good job of cleaning up the affairs of Tongguan, and wait for the arrival of the father-in-law! ”

Zheng Miao knew that his righteous brother had a big idea, and he was not reluctant, so he smiled and said: "That's fine, then thanks to the advice of the virtuous brother!" ”

The official army on Tongguan resisted very fiercely, but they surrendered simply, and they had already abandoned their weapons one by one, standing in place, waiting for the Youyan army to fall.

The military discipline of the Youyan army is strict, and there is no such thing as killing and abusing prisoners, only after disarming the officers and soldiers, disrupting the original establishment, and then tying them together with ropes, they will be taken down to find a place to live and take care of them. As for the generals among them, they treated each other with courtesy, and even the ropes were exempted, but they were not allowed to talk to each other.

Qiu Yizhi saw that Zheng Miao's handling was very appropriate and appropriate, and she admired it very much, but said: "Anyway, after the forbidden army, General Bai Wenbo is still closed, I don't know how to deal with it?" ”

Zheng Miao frowned and said, "General Bai is a veteran of the army, and if it is not for my two brothers, he can dispose of it without permission, and he can only be sent when his father arrives here." He paused and said, "But I'll wait for a few words of comfort first, and take the opportunity to ask General Bai what his plans are." My two brothers are well prepared. ”

Qiu Yi thought that his third brother was really thoughtful, no wonder he was deeply liked by his father-in-law, so he arched his hand and said, "It's all up to my brother's arrangement." With that, he took Zheng Miao and walked to where Bai Wenbo was.

The old general Bai Wenbo sat on a big sandbag, his head drooping weakly, with an indifferent and weak expression on his face, as if he was ten years old.

Seeing Bai Wenbo's expression, and remembering that he was still arrogant and empty-eyed this morning, Qiu Yizhi couldn't help but feel a little proud, so he took a few steps forward and said with a smile: "Old General Bai, don't come unharmed?" ”

Bai Wenbo looked up and saw the spies sent by the King of Youyan with a frivolous demeanor, his self-esteem was greatly hit, and he stood up in an instant, grabbed Qiu Yizhi's collar, and lifted him in the air.

Bai Wenbo was born in Wu Zhuangyuan, and this move was extremely quick and sudden. And although Qiu Yizhi has also practiced two hands in the Youyan Army, and has been instructed by his brother Chi Lianghong, his fist and foot skills are only mediocre. Therefore, between the lightning and flint, he was subdued by Bai Wenbo.

Seeing this, Yu Chi Lianghong, who was guarding Qiu Yizhi's side, hurriedly rubbed his body and pinched Bai Wenbo's wrist, making him unable to move.

Bai Wenbo's martial arts are strong, even though he is close to ancient age, his kung fu has not regressed in the slightest. But when he was grabbed by the young man in front of him who seemed to be Sven with one hand, he couldn't exert his strength up and down, and he couldn't help but show a look of surprise in his eyes.

Qiu Yizhi knew his own methods as the elder brother of the Martial Arts Alliance, so he turned his head and said, "Old General Bai is just joking with me, brother must not be offended!" ”

When Yu Chi Lianghong was told by Qiu Yizhi like this, he didn't dare to use his strength to hurt Bai Wenbo, but he didn't let go - the three of them were entangled together in such a mess, which looked very weird.

Zheng Miao, who was standing on the side, was just about to stand up and persuade him, when he suddenly heard a crisp and loud voice from the side of the wall: "Why did Yizhi offend General Bai Wenbo again?" Why don't you prostrate and apologize? ”

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and saw that Zheng Rong, the king of Youyan, was wearing a military uniform, leading the strategist Zhong Likuang and the second son Zheng Sen to step forward with extremely light and chic steps.

Qiu Yizhi saw that his father-in-law Zheng Rong's face was ruddy, and his spirit was more cheerful than when he was in Youyan Dao, and he was happy in his heart, so he broke free of Bai Wenbo's big hand, walked quickly to Zheng Rong, and said with a smile: "Yizhi hasn't seen his father-in-law for a long time, and he is thinking about it tightly, and I am relieved to see my father-in-law full of red light." Let's say hello to my father-in-law first! "Say goodbye, bow down.

Zheng Miao, Yu Chi Lianghong, Zhao Chengxiao and others behind him also kowtowed.

Bai Wenbo, who seemed to be standing on the iron tower, listened to Qiu Yi's affectionate call of a "father-in-law", and he was confused for a while, so he simply turned his head away, as if he didn't see Zheng Rong.

Zheng Rong had just taken Tongguan and opened the last line of defense to attack the capital, when he was in a good mood, he raised his hand and asked Qiu Yizhi and the others to get up, but instead of talking to them, he walked straight to Bai Wenbo and said with a smile: "Old General Bai is frightened, do you remember me Zheng Rong?" ”

Youyan Wang Zheng Rong came to ask in person, Bai Wenbo could no longer pretend to be crazy and stupid, turned his head and replied: "The prince is already famous, and he has issued a so-called 'rebellion' text, and now he has won Tongguan, it is the time of the earthquake in China, how can the old man not recognize it?" With that, he turned his head away.

Zheng Rong heard the ridicule in Bai Wenbo's words, and he didn't answer with a smile, but said: "Old General Bai Tonggu is also an old man, why don't you help under me, and don't work hard for Zheng Yao, a faint king." ”

Bai Wenbo's friendship with Zheng Rong is not only far less profound than Dai Luanxiang's, but in the final analysis, there are still some discord in it.

It turned out that Bai Wenbo debuted and became famous very early, and before Zheng Rong became an adult, he was already one of the top generals in the Han Dynasty. However, Zheng Rongnai is a serious dragon son and phoenix grandson, and after taking charge of the army, he has a great record of success, and Dai Luanxiang has risen with it, so he has taken away the military power in the hands of Bai Wenbo, a cadre.

Bai Wenbo is 68 years old this year, but since he was 43 years old, he has never been the commander of the First Army.

This made Bai Wenbo feel a little bit bitter about Zheng Rong in his heart, but now that he is a prisoner of the order, what should he do?
