354 Battle of Tiger Pass
354 Battle of Tiger Pass
To the west of Hangu Pass is Kansai, Shaanxi and Xiliang; Sili Luoyang area, for Guanzhong; The east of Tiger Prison Pass is Kanto. (During the Three Kingdoms, the Tiger Prison Pass was divided into Guandong and Guanxi, and the princes of Yuan Shao's Eighteen Roads were all from Guanxi; The Qin and Han dynasties often divided the eastern and western Kansai with Hangu Pass as the boundary. )
On January 15, 190 of the game calendar, outside the Tiger Prison Pass, all the NPC princes of the Yuan Shao Alliance have arrived, and they have set up camp in their own villages, connecting more than 200 miles, with a huge force of up to 300,000, and many historical-level NPC celebrities have gathered. There are a huge number of players attached to several famous NPC princes such as Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Jian, Gongsun Zhan, Yuan Shu, etc., with more than one million.
In addition, there are also the princes of the Eighteen Roads, all of whom are leaders of the village and town alliance from Sili, Ji, You, Yan, Henan, Jing, Qing, Yang, Xu and other prefectures in Guandong and Guanzhong. They are the prosperous Han and Tang dynasties (Hongnong), the silent sword (Xuchang), the lonely twin cities (Handan), the peerless heroes (Zhao Guo), the broken dance remnant yang (Juye), Ah brother (Lingling), Ah brother (Guiyang), Hengyue (Jianye), the evil city management (Huaiyin), the picturesque rivers and mountains (Poyang), Shanmeng Haishi (Penglai), Lu Xiaoyao (Yuhang), ...... (Player suffix, which refers to the possession of the city, or the location near the city)
The eighteen-way players, princes, and players from various states and counties rushed to scatter soldiers are too numerous to count, and I am afraid that there are no less than millions.
The princes of the eastern part of the country were menacing, so as to conquer the Tiger Prison Pass in a war and enter Luoyang City.
Dong Zhuo's more than 200,000 troops were scattered in the three cities and two passes of Tianshui, Chang'an, Hangu Pass, Luoyang, and Tiger Pass. The initial deployment was 30,000 in Tianshui, 50,000 in Chang'an, 20,000 in Hanguguan, and 40,000 in Luoyang.
If Yuan Shao and other princes of the Eighteenth Route did not come to attack the Tiger Pass, this military deployment would be very appropriate.
The more than 100,000 elite soldiers of Tianshui, Chang'an, and Hangu Pass were enough to deter Xiliang, so that the Xiliang princes did not dare to invade Sanfu easily. Dong Zhuo has always been wary of the forces of Sanliang Han Sui, Ma Teng, Zhan Xiaobai and other local princes, otherwise he would not have deployed such heavy troops on this front.
Luoyang's 40,000 troops were enough to suppress the ministers of the imperial court and prevent them from rebelling.
The 50,000 troops of the Tiger Prison Pass are also enough to block the eastern portal, and it will not be easily captured by a certain prince, so that the imperial capital Luoyang will be directly "exposed" in front of all the princes.
However, the eighteenth princes of the Dong Alliance gathered heavy troops to attack the Tiger Prison Pass, and the troops deployed by Dong Zhuo in the Tiger Prison Pass immediately appeared very thin. With 50,000 troops, it is absolutely impossible to hold the Tiger Pass.
Another important point is that there are not many player villages and towns in Chang'an and Luoyang, and when Dong Zhuobing entered Luoyang, a large number of Luoyang players went to other states and counties. In the Luoyang area, the number of players supporting Dong Zhuo is very small, no more than 200,000, far lower than the number of players in Kanto and Kansai. Even if all the players in Luoyang are on Dong Zhuo's side, they won't be able to play a role.
The largest group of player warriors, in the Eighteen-Way Player Princes of Kansai, and the Eighteen-Way Player Princes of Kanto. And not in the hands of Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo had to transfer more than 50,000~100,000 NPC troops from Tianshui, Chang'an, Luoyang and other places to Tiger Prison Pass to strengthen the defense of the eastern front, so that he could barely cope with the madness of the Kwantung Army.
However, in this way, the defense of the Western Front will be greatly weakened, and there will be big problems.
If Sanliang takes the opportunity to rebel, he will be attacked by the enemy.
Dong Zhuo is very aware of this problem.
Therefore, he attaches great importance to appeasing Sanliang, and he does not hesitate to bring Sanliang to his side. When Sanliang offered a letter to express his willingness to surrender, Dong Zhuo jumped up from the dragon couch in the palace in surprise and hurriedly added an official to Sanliang to show appeasement.
The military situation was critical, and Dong Zhuo thought hard about countermeasures to resist Yuan Shao's coalition army against Dong. In addition, Dong Zhuo also sent several fast horses to Chang'an in a row, urging Sanliang to quickly lead the troops to Tiger Prison Pass to participate in the battle.
If Sanliang's 100,000 troops can reach the Tiger Pass, it will not only greatly enhance the military strength of the Tiger Pass, but also allow Dong Zhuo to draw troops from Tianshui, Chang'an and other cities to support the Tiger Pass. If Sanliang's 100,000 troops do not come to Tiger Prison Pass, Dong Zhuo will not be able to draw troops from Chang'an with peace of mind.
Sanliang seems to have no intention of taking another step towards the Tiger Prison.
After Han Sui, Ma Teng, and Zhan Xiaobai were stationed outside Chang'an City, they shirked it on the grounds of insufficient food, fatigue and complaints of soldiers, low morale, etc., delayed time, rested in place, and refused to immediately send troops to prison. They ate Dong Zhuo's military rations, but they didn't work. By the way, if you ask Dong Min for benefits, there is a tendency that you will not give up if you don't squeeze him dry.
Dong Min is so angry that he doesn't fight anywhere. But he had nothing to do, and he didn't even dare to accuse Sanliang. Otherwise, he angered Sanliang, and he was the one who suffered. He could only send ministers to persuade Sanliang to send troops as soon as possible to assist Dong Zhuo in guarding the Tiger Pass.
Dong Min couldn't move Sanliang's army, so he could only use his brains from the eighteen-way players and princes, and dispatched them to the Tiger Prison Pass. The player's combat power is much weaker than the regular NPC army, but there are a lot of them, isn't it! If there are too many ants, they can bite an elephant to death, let alone a person.
The player princes of the Eighteenth Road supporting Dong are all from Xiliang, Bingzhou, Hanzhong, and Yizhou, especially Xiliang, and nearly half of the princes are Xiliang player leaders. The princes of Dong Eighteen Roads: Xiaobai (Wuwei), Xiaoye (Chengdu), Starry Sky (Luofengpo), Dihuang (Huangyuan), Wild Wolf (Linqiang), Servant (Hanzhong), Marquis of Fenyang (Zhangye), 、......
Among them, several players and princes who came from Hanzhong, Bingzhou, and Yizhou to support Dong took over the NPC military mission issued by Dong Min, and hurriedly led the army to run outside the Tiger Prison Pass. There are as many as five or six hundred thousand soldiers and horses in these players, and the strength of the troops is okay.
And none of the player leaders from Xiliang moved. In addition, some of the clever players in Yi, Bing, and Hanzhong saw that the players in Liangzhou did not move, and they also did not move.
A thief is shrewd.
Their eyes were all fixed on one person, Zhan Xiaobai.
They believe that Xiaobai has some highly classified military information in the game, and only by following Xiaobai's boss can they get the greatest benefits.
As for the NPC military missions released by Dong Zhuo and Dong Min, to hell with it! This kind of mission is definitely to use the player as cannon fodder. To get the extra benefits, the player has to use his or her own brain.
Zhan Xiaobai's 20,000 troops stayed in Chang'an, and they immediately smelled the dangerous breath in it, and they didn't dare to act rashly. Abide by one principle: follow the back of Xiaobai's boss, when the disaster comes, Xiaobai will take it first, and they can also share a share of the benefits.
Like those who were fooled by Dong Min and succeeded, recklessly accepted the task and ran to the Tiger Prison, they were all simple-minded and well-developed limbs. was fooled by NPCs, and hurriedly ran to grab the merits, but he didn't think that everyone else was laughing and laughing in the back.
......
On January 15, Yuan Shao and other princes of the Eighteen Roads held a ceremony to worship the heavens, took the stage to worship the generals, and distributed the military talismans and general seals.
Yuan Shu supervised the grain and grass, and Sun Jian was the pioneer.
The remaining seventeen NPC princes are stationed in key places and are ready to support at any time. The rest of the eighteen-way players and princes were restrained by Yuan Shao, stationed in various places, and took turns to attack the Tiger Prison Pass - as cannon fodder, it was used to consume troops.
The tiger prison guarded, and went to Luoyang in the starry night to report to the emergency.
Dong Zhuo was shocked and hurriedly gathered the crowd to discuss. A member of the tiger will immediately ask to fight, Kansai people also, surnamed Hua, Mingxiong. Dong Zhuo was overjoyed, and Jia Huaxiong was the captain of the Xiao Cavalry. Allocate 10,000 Luoyang Mabu troops, and reinforce the Tiger Pass with Li Su, Hu Zhen, Zhao Cen and other generals in the starry night to meet the enemy.
The battle of the Tiger Prison Pass of the Three Kingdoms broke out instantly.
"System-wide prompt: The historical plot of the crusade against Dong Zhuo, the battle of Tiger Prison Pass broke out. The first battle of Tiger Prison Pass: Huaxiong against Sun Jian. The strength of the two sides is compared, and Huaxiong's generals Li Su, Hu Zhen, and Zhao Cen have 10,000 troops. Sun Lingjian's generals Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, and Zu Mao had 10,000 troops. Battle location: Tiger Prison Pass, Guanxia.

Campaign duration: January 17 ~ January 27. Players are welcome to claim military missions and participate in the Battle of Tiger Prison Pass. ”
......
Chang'an City.
Zhan Xiaobai directly received this important news from the system prompt, while Han Sui and Ma Teng learned from the spies later, a step late.
This is one of the advantages that players have over NPCs, as they can learn important information from system messages as soon as possible, while NPCs cannot receive system messages and must rely on correspondence to get information.
In the face of this news, Zhan Xiaobai was still unmoved, and had no intention of fighting immediately.
Jiang Xu, Huangfu Li, Yang Fu and others came to ask, "Do you want to rescue Huangfu Song immediately and raise troops to seize Chang'an City?!" ”
"No hurry!"
The various players and princes of Xiliang came to ask: "Little White Boss, let's stay here?" Don't you do something?! ”
"Wait!"
In the end, even Han Sui and Ma Teng came to ask, "Is it time to do it!" ”。 Even Song Yang came over and asked, "What are we doing with so many soldiers and horses staying here, why don't we go to Tiger Prison?" ”
Song Yang guessed something somewhat, but he didn't say it, he also hoped to pick up some bargains from it.
Zhan Xiaobai's answer was only one: "Don't worry, wait!" ”
