However, after Zhang Xiu rested for less than an hour, he heard a shout of killing outside, and soon after, a junior colonel came to report: "General, the coalition forces are attacking the key positions on a large scale, and Lord Hu Che'er asks the general to go to the pass to command the battle." ”

Zhang Xiu heard that Yuan Shao was attacking, and knew that he was taking advantage of the fact that he and Hua Xiong were too tired to command the battle before attacking the fortifications. However, Zhang Xiu rested for an hour, his physical strength and spirit recovered a lot, and he immediately took the tiger's head golden gun, put a big bow on his back, and hung a night sword on his waist.

Zhang Xiu took his weapons and put on his armor, and when he came to the gate, he had already seen Hua Xiong and Hu Che'er commanding the battle, and the other was rushing around with a mace, smashing down some of the coalition soldiers who rushed up, and smashing the ladder.

Fortunately, the coalition army was only the first time to tackle the problem, and the soldiers on the pass saw Zhang Xiu showing his might and pressing Guan Yu to fight, and Hua Xiong killed several generals, and his morale was very strong, so there were only a few small places that were rushed up by the coalition army, but they were soon killed by the Xiliang soldiers, so Zhang Xiu easily came to Hua Xiong and said to him: "Brother Hua, here is embroidered to command, you go down to rest." ”

Hua Xiong heard this, and said hurriedly: "General, please let Xiong stay here to kill the enemy." ”

Zhang Xiu heard it and scolded: "Confused, the coalition army of more than 200,000 troops must be attacking the city day and night, if the two of us are here to command the battle together, then who will command it tonight, and go down to rest, and the task of keeping vigil tonight will be handed over to you." ”

After Hua Xiong listened to Zhang Xiu's words, he immediately responded: "No." Then he strode down and went back to his tent to rest.

Zhang Xiushang had to close, but when he saw that the Xiliang soldiers were fighting a little chaotic, he immediately raised the tiger's head golden gun and commanded loudly, and the soldiers next to him also helped shout, and after fighting for a while, the defense of the entire Bishui Pass began to become much more organized.

In the first row of the closed passage, there were two sword and shield soldiers separated by a pikeman, and the sword and shield soldiers were responsible for dealing with the enemy and the pikemen were responsible for pushing up the ladder. Every once in a while, after the enemy army has gathered a lot, there are soldiers who are responsible for getting the boiling oil and sassalo to the pass, and there is no need to look at it, as long as it is down, it will definitely be a large number of screams. The last two rows of Zhang Xiu are arranged with archers, and the two rows of archers take turns to shoot, and there is no need to look, as long as the feather arrows are shot and then wound up to prepare to put a few more, the enemy is closed, and the feather arrows will definitely hit the target.

Under the orderly command of Zhang Xiu, there was almost no danger in the pass, and the number of allied soldiers rushing to the city was much less than that of Fang Cai, and occasionally the enemy rushed up, and Hu Che'er took a mace and smashed the enemy soldiers into meat sauce or flew them one by one, and fell down.

Just looking at how many times Zhang Xiu has barely made a move on the pass, he knows that the defense of Bishui Pass is solid. The faces of the princes who watched the battle from a distance were gloomy and terrifying, but they watched their soldiers being ruthlessly killed, and it was usually the lives of five coalition soldiers that were exchanged for the lives of one Xiliang soldier, and the large proportion of casualties could be seen.

After more than an hour of fighting, the coalition soldiers suffered thousands of casualties, and the corpses of the coalition troops and the wreckage of the ladder were piled up under the Bishui Pass. Several princes had already said that Yuan Shao wanted to withdraw his troops, and Yuan Shao was secretly moved when he heard it, and looked at several strategists next to him, but he saw that several strategists nodded in unison, and Yuan Shao immediately made a decision to let the coalition army retreat.

As a result, the battle that lasted for more than an hour was over, Zhang Xiu left Hu Che'er to deal with the aftermath, and then went to find Hua Xiong, and told Hua Xiong to pay attention to precautions tonight, but he returned to his tent to rest, Zhang Xiu was too tired today.

Besides, on the side of the coalition camp, after Yuan Shao appeased the princes with his words, he invited Cao Cao, Yuan Shu and his four strategists to discuss in the big tent.

I only heard Yuan Shao ask first: "Bishui Pass is the world's Xiongguan, today's attack is to see that Zhang Xiu is not only strong in martial arts, but also deep in the art of war, the entire Bishui Pass is defended without leakage, although our army has more than 200,000 people, but 40,000 Xiliang soldiers are stationed in Bishui Pass, if it is a strong attack, I am afraid that even if Bishui Pass is captured, we will lose more than 100,000 people, and then our army will suffer heavy losses, how is the opponent of the main force of Dong thief, I don't know what you have to do to break through Bishui Pass." ”

Yuan Shu heard this, muttered for a while and said: "It's better to use local materials, build siege equipment such as well railings and rushing cars, and such a strong attack can reduce the casualties of the soldiers." ”

After hearing this, Cao Cao shook his head and said: "The front of Bishui Pass is flat, if Zhang Xiu learns that he only needs to lead the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to take advantage of the negligence of our army to attack at night, I am afraid that the siege equipment will be destroyed in one fell swoop." ”

Yuan Shu heard it and argued: "Then you only need to defend it with heavy troops." ”

Cao Cao heard this, shook his head again and said: "It takes a long time to build siege equipment, even if the siege equipment is built to capture Bishui Pass, I am afraid that our coalition army will run out of food at this time, so this battle needs to be fast." ”

Xu You heard it, nodded and said: "What Meng De said is reasonable, if our army abandons Bishui Pass and does not attack, and goes to attack the Tiger Prison Pass, the Tiger Prison Pass is only fifty miles away from Luoyang, and as soon as the Tiger Prison Pass falls, we can attack Luoyang and rescue Your Majesty." ”

Yuan Shao heard this, nodded and said: "This plan is very good, but if our army leaves Bishui Pass, I am afraid that Zhang Xiu will lead the army to attack our army along the way." ”

At this point, several people were silent. A few people were silent, but they heard Tian Feng say: "Lord, Feng has a strategy, which can delay Zhang Xiu's army, and even make Dong Thief transfer troops to reinforce Bishui Pass." ”

Yuan Shao heard it and said happily: "What is Mr. Yuan Hao's plan, and he will come." ”

I saw that Tian Feng had a good chest, and said with a confident smile: "This is a plan for tired soldiers." ”

After listening to this, Yuan Shao asked a little confusedly: "What is the strategy of exhausting soldiers?" ”

Tian Feng explained: "The so-called tired soldier's plan is to take advantage of the night, the lord asked a small group of soldiers to beat gongs and drums in front of the pass, and shouted loudly, so that Zhang Xiu and others thought that our army was attacking the city, and after Zhang Xiu and others were ready to fight, the small group of soldiers would retreat." Zhang Xiu and the other troops were far inferior to our coalition army, and it was night, so they naturally did not dare to go out of the customs to chase after them. After the Xiliang soldiers are closed, this small group of soldiers will harass again, if this is the case, one night, this is a tired strategy. ”

After hearing this, Yuan Shao wondered: "Although this plan is wonderful, how can it hold back Zhang Xiu's army and make Dong Zhuo increase his troops at Bishui Pass?" ”

Tian Feng smiled and said: "As long as the lord counts the tired soldiers, Zhang Xiu's troops are unbearable, and the natural combat strength is greatly reduced, Zhang Xiu naturally asks Dong Zhuo for help when he learns about this, so the lord only needs to leave a large battalion and thousands of soldiers and horses here, pretending to be more than 200,000 troops here, and then order this department to harass every night, Zhang Xiu will not dare to go out of the customs with caution, so there are several days." The lord should be able to divide his troops from the camp and drive to the Tiger Prison Pass at night for a few days, so that our coalition army can reach the Tiger Prison Pass without knowing it. ”
