164 Inside the Yanmen Pass
And the state, Yanmen Pass.
The seventh day that Liu Cheng met Ji Ruxue was also the tenth day that the coalition forces were preparing to carry out the closure plan.
Ten days was a quick time for Liu Cheng, and the effort passed in the blink of an eye, but for the First Army of the Coalition Army, these ten days were unexpectedly long.
It is difficult for outsiders to imagine how the First Legion has spent these ten days.
Since their plan was to raid Yanmen Pass, their march had to be concealed in concealment.
In order to do this, the First Army even made a detour from Youzhou into the grassland, and then rushed from the grassland to Yanmen Pass.
However, despite their caution, their journey was not smooth.
They underestimated the strength of the Steppe Empire, as well as their power within the steppe.
Along the way, they don't know how many times they were almost discovered, and how many times they had to take a detour to avoid it.
In order not to be discovered, in order not to startle the snake, they have spent the past ten days walking on thin ice.
If this were not the case, they would not have walked for ten full days day and night on the journey that they had expected to be able to reach in six days at most seven days.
It can be said that along the way, everyone was exhausted and exhausted, but fortunately, they finally came to Yanmen Pass without danger.
"About ten miles further south is Yanmen Pass, what should we do next? Contact Lu Bu from Yanmen Pass? Yuwen Chengdu looked at Huo Quzhi and asked.
Huo Quzhi shook his head: "No, we can't get in touch, if we want them to join us inside and out, we have only one way, and that is for us to go in first!" ”
"Punch in? How to fight? ”
Everyone was in good spirits and stared at Huo Quai.
No one questioned anything at this time, and it could be seen that Huo Quzhi had done quite well in the past ten days, at least so that no one would question his every decision now.
"I remember there was a tribe on the way we came, right? Slaughter that tribe, put on their clothes and open the gates! ”
"Good!"
As soon as Huo Quai's decision came out, no one raised any objections, and the First Army Corps quickly took action.
50,000 elite soldiers of the coalition army, plus dozens or hundreds of first-class generals.
In less than three hours, a tribe with a population of tens of thousands was quietly taken down.
Under the capture of this tribe, the first army could not take a break, and simply disguised itself, put on the clothes of this tribe, and drove the cattle and sheep of this tribe to Yanmen Pass.
I don't know if it's because Huo Qubing is in place in terms of time, or because of coincidence, when the First Army came to Yanmen Pass, the sky happened to be bright.
The people who closed the gate of the wild goose looked down, and could only vaguely see the clothes on their bodies, so as to roughly identify their identities.
However, the most important thing is Huo Qu's disease!
Huo Qubing has a talent of being proficient in foreign languages, whether it is Xiongnu, Xianbei or Mongolian.
When the defenders of the Steppe Empire at Yanmen Pass first saw him, they identified themselves in a fairly proficient Mongolian language, and explained that they were here to deliver grain.
The defenders at the Yanmen Pass didn't find any flaws at all, and they didn't think that anyone would go around behind their butts and beat them, so he opened the gate of the Yanmen Pass without saying a word.
As soon as the city gate opened, the First Legion immediately gave up its disguise, and everyone tore off their alien clothes, and under the leadership of Huo Quai, they entered Yanmen Pass.
It was not until this time that the Grassland Empire Legion at Yanmen Pass discovered the fraud, shouting to close the city gate and drive the First Legion out of Yanmen Pass and the like. But where is the time?
As soon as the city gates opened, their fate was basically sealed.
Huo Quzhi, Li Guang, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong, Yuwen Chengdu, Wei Wentong, Qin Shubao, Cheng Yanjin......
In this kind of siege warfare, under the command of the other party's top commander, these top generals are almost invincible, and there is no way to contain their attack, so in just a dozen minutes, the gate of Yanmen Pass was taken.
After taking the city gate, the First Legion did not give the Grassland Empire time to react, and continued to kill towards the Yanmen Pass.
From the time they began to take the north gate of Yanmen Pass, it took more than half an hour.
This time is neither long nor short, and it is enough for the army of the Steppe Empire to react.
Therefore, the First Army had already begun to encounter the resistance of the formation on the way to advance at this time.
Of course, this kind of resistance was simply vulnerable in the face of the First Legion, although the elite strength of the Steppe Empire was indeed strong, and the basic force was at least 55.
But the First Army is not bad, as the most elite existence of the coalition army, the basic force of 50,000 soldiers is around 60, which is already the standard of military generals, not to mention that there are dozens or hundreds of strong generals.
In this kind of Hong Kong battle, the advantages of the grassland empire army could not be brought into play, but these generals were all able to exert their own superb force at this time.
Therefore, at this time, the grassland empire, as long as there is not a top-level commander who comes out of the town, it is basically as many as he comes, and there is no ambiguity!
It's hard to say whether there is a top-level commander on the grassland Empire's side who has come out of the town, but when the First Legion was killing and killing, it had been two or three months since he was trapped in the corner of Yanmen Pass, and the number of soldiers under his command had dropped from more than 60,000 to more than 30,000.
Two armies, one from the north to the south, and the other from the west to the east.
The same strength, the same momentum.
There was no decent resistance on either side, and in the following two hours or so, the two legions actually killed at the same time, and the entire Yanmen Pass was taken by them.
However, after winning Yanmen Pass like this, Huo Qubing did not have much joy.
"No, it's not right, it's too easy, it's too easy for us to take this one goose gate."
"General Huo, it's not good, we're surrounded!"
Just when Huo Qubing felt that the situation was wrong, the soldiers on the side reported urgently.
Huo Qubing was startled, and hurriedly went up to the city wall of Yanmen Pass, and when he looked at the city, Huo Quai's eyes immediately became fascinated.
I saw that in all directions of Yanmen Pass, dense troops surrounded me.
These armies were in the standard formation of the Prairie Empire, with the people of the Prairie Empire at the front, and hundreds of thousands of elite legions of the Prairie Empire behind the people of the Prairie Empire.
Seeing this scene, Huo Quzhi didn't know where they had fallen into someone else's trap......
