Chapter 112 The siege of the city has to be cannon fodder

Fan Chou returned to the city to recuperate from his injuries, and Hu Zhen took over the defense of Tiger Prison Pass. Although the Western Liang Army annihilated nearly 70,000 Kwantung Coalition troops, the death of Huaxiong and the annihilation of the 30,000 player cavalry still dampened the morale of the Western Liang Army. A full 30,000 cavalry players were wiped out in formation, and the news spread among the Xiliang army, although Hua Xiong's death was exchanged for heavy losses for the coalition army, but the Xiliang army on the Tiger Prison did not think so. They just think that such a powerful general as Hua Xiong is dead, and the Kwantung coalition army is indeed relatively strong, not comparable to the Qiang and Yellow Turbans who were defeated in one blow......

The same atmosphere of defeat and sluggishness also filled the coalition camp, although Zhang Yang's army was almost wiped out, but his base camp was still there, so the players who went offline in Zhang Yang's army went online the next day. The players of the coalition are different from Dong Zhuojun's players, and they only learned after they went to the forum this morning that there was a big battle between the two sides after they went offline last night......

The players looked at the empty barracks of the Zhang Yang Division, and at this time they didn't know that the coalition forces had suffered heavy losses last night, so it was a bit too big to think......

However, players don't care about the loss of NPCs, and they all regret not being able to participate in last night's battle. However, the task of attacking the Tiger Prison released by Yuan Shao quickly swept away the players' regrets.

It is impossible for the millions of players of the coalition army to be deployed before the Tiger Prison Pass, so Yuan Shao decided to divide the troops, and he himself took Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Zhang Yang, Qiao Mao, Zhang Miao, Liu Dai, Kong Rong, Han Fu, Kong Yu, Cannon Dayou, Yellow Emperor, Broken Autumn Wind and others and 700,000 players, as well as an army of 200,000 NPCs to attack the Tiger Prison Pass.

On the other hand, Gongsun Zhan led Sun Jian, Yuan Yi, Zhang Chao, Bao Xin, Tao Qian's 100,000 troops and 300,000 players to Hanoi to support Wang Kuang. Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang is very sad now, Hanoi County is a big county in the Sili region, just north of Luoyang, it can be said that it is under the nose of Dong Zhuo in Luoyang. Wang Kuang is still relatively capable of commanding troops, but he is very unwise Yuan Shao and others made a move, he waved his flag and shouted to Yuan Shao to advocate, as a result, he was the first person to be attacked by Dong Zhuo, and it was no one else who went to fight Wang Kuang, it was Xingyang appointed by Dong Zhuo to guard Xu Rong, Xu Rong is the real general of Tiger Prison Pass, but he is not in Tiger Prison Pass now, he is in Hanoi with an army of 100,000 players. Wang Kuang's geographical location determines that no player will be stupid enough to defect to him and make trouble under Dong Zhuo's nose, so Wang Kuang only has more than 20,000 people under his own command, and he is absolutely weak in terms of troops, plus Xu Rongnai is one of the best generals under Dong Zhuo, so Wang Kuang is almost extinct now. If it weren't for the fact that the water had divided Hanoi County into two, Wang Kuang burned the ferry, and retreated to the north bank of Qinshui himself, it is estimated that Xu Rong would have taken Wang Kuang's head and returned to Luoyang to ask for credit.

Gongsun Zhan had two missions along the way, one was to rescue Zhang Chao and defeat Xu Rong, and the other was to reoccupy Hanoi County and threaten Luoyang from Mengjin to achieve the effect of Yuan Shao's two fist attacks. In addition, the Kwantung Coalition Army also has a partial division, that is, the Yizhou Army with thousands of miles of red land. But from the support of the Kwantung coalition army to the army for more than half a month, Chidi Qianli did not survive, because Hanzhong County was occupied by Zhang Lu, Zhang Lu burned the plank road out of the customs in Hanzhong, and guarded the sword pavilion and other fortresses in Yizhou, although Chidi Qianli occupied the entire Yizhou, but he couldn't get out! Although the whole Yizhou is rich and has a population of millions, but there is Hanzhong in the north, Jingxiang in the east, and Chidi Qianli is locked up in Yizhou Tianfu, and now he is having a headache for Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, although he joined the Kwantung Coalition Army, but he does not even play a role in containing Dong Zhuo......

To get back to the point, Cannon Dayou led his subordinates to become the overseer team, watching the players take turns attacking the Tiger Prison Pass.

This is Yuan Shao's instructions, originally the combined NPC strength of the Kwantung princes was not less than Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo had 240,000 horses and claimed to be 300,000, and the soldiers and horses of the various princes of the Kwantung region were actually a full 350,000. The distribution of players is relatively even, with Dong Zhuo and the coalition each having a million players.

However, the coalition army lost 70,000 people in World War I last night, and now its strength has been greatly damaged, and Yuan Shao and other princes will not completely pin their hopes on unstable players. I don't believe in players, after all, players still have to go offline, and there may be Infernal Affairs, and it is impossible for NPCs to be so sure of it. Therefore, Yuan Shao meant that in the war of attrition of the siege, players should be used to fight the enemy as much as possible, and the NPC military strength of the princes from all walks of life should be preserved as much as possible for the final decisive battle with Dong Zhuo......

The Kwantung Coalition Army thought so first, Dong Zhuo naturally thought so too, and Dong Zhuo's subordinate Hu Zhen was no exception......

Hua Xiong was killed in battle, Fan Chou was injured, Xu Rong sent to Hanoi, and now only Hu Zhen is left as the guard of Tiger Prison. Hu Zhen is definitely an old qualification in the Liangzhou army, he has been with Dong Zhuo longer than Li Dao and Guo Yan, the two horse thieves, and his first identity is Dong Zhuo's house slave, starting from Dong Zhuo's personal guard step by step, and rising to the ranks of the current miscellaneous generals little by little.

Hu Zhen does not have Hua Xiong's bravery, in fact, his martial arts skills are not even as good as Li Dao, Guo Yan and others, and his strength is only 68,. Hu Zhen is not a wise general like Xu Rong, his only specialty is that he has experienced a hundred battles. We can think of him as a veteran who has been through a hundred battles and is still not dead! This veteran has his own set of battlefield figures......

Relying on the terrain to defend the Tiger Pass, this little thing is not under Hu Zhen's words at all. Tiger Prison Pass, this treacherous geographical environment, a thousand people are enough to withstand tens of thousands of troops for a month. What's more, Hu Zhen has a full army of 300,000 NPCs and players in his hands......

But there is one thing that Hu Zhen didn't expect, no one in the entire Han Dynasty has participated in a war of millions of people, in fact, this war cannot exist at all, a million people! Without fighting, you can eat your own commander's ...... But now it's a game, especially a game where free players account for 99.9%, and the system won't let free players go hungry and find abuse, so the military rations and materials needed by free players are all refreshed by the system, so the million-man war can't really happen......

Therefore, Dong Zhuojun and the Kwantung Coalition Army, neither of the two armies has the experience of bringing so many soldiers, although Yuan Shao and others have no experience, but they have many people and generals, and they can be entrusted with many important tasks! Therefore, the princes of all walks of life can take turns to rest and attack the Tiger Prison all the time. And the original four generals of Tiger Prison Pass, now there is one left, Brother Hu Zhen is busy day and night, and the night is busy, and the coalition army is still attacking the city with high morale.

It's been three days, Hu Zhen, who is wearing two black circles and pretending to be pandas, looked at the radiant artillery outside the city, looked at the coalition forces with high morale, and looked at the subordinates around him who were also full of energy, and said angrily: "Everyone has rest, only I haven't closed my eyes for three days and 72 hours......"

No matter how loyal Hu Zhen is to Dong Xiangguo, Hu Zhen, a veteran, has enough experience in saving his life on the battlefield! He also couldn't stand the torture of not sleeping for 72 hours, so he decided to desert......

Tiger Prison Pass is worthy of being the world's strongest pass, the coalition army attacked for three days in 72 hours, losing 100,000 players, and there is no sign of the Tiger Prison Pass being breached, although the Tiger Prison Pass also lost 50,000 players, but this casualty ratio can not satisfy Yuan Shao at all, according to this casualty ratio, the coalition army is dead, and Dong Zhuo will not be able to see his face...... But the mountain people have their own tricks, Yuan Shao thinks so......

As soon as Hu Zhen lay on the bed, he closed his eyes and fell into a coma, and he didn't know anything when he slept darkly......

As a result, the tunnel dug by the cannon finally reached into the tiger prison. Tiger Prison Pass is a mountainous area, there is Luoshui next to it, according to common sense it is a very dangerous task to dig tunnels here, Yuan Shao's hydrological master Fu Zhi, perfect solution to this problem, a tunnel to avoid the mountain rocks, avoid the groundwater and dig into the city safely......

In general, there are few successes in cave sieges, that is because there are two problems that are difficult to overcome, one is that the excavated soil cannot be concealed, and it is easy to be discovered by the enemy; The second is that the sound of digging tunnels is easily detected by enemies on the ground.

But these two problems are not a problem here in the coalition army, first of all, perhaps Yuan Shao prefers to look down on all beings from a high position, he used the archery method of building a high platform in the battle with Cao Cao Guandu to the Tiger Prison Pass, and the soil dug out of the tunnel was ordered by Yuan Shao to be used to build a high platform outside the Tiger Prison Pass, as the soil became more and more, these high platforms were almost trained into a city wall, and the Tiger Prison Pass Wall confronted! This is also the reason why the coalition army can exchange 100,000 casualties for Dong Zhuo's army of 50,000 casualties, otherwise the casualty ratio of the besieging side and the defending side is generally about 4:1......

The second digging tunnel is easy to be heard by the enemy, it is easier to solve, the coalition forces continue to attack the city in turn for three days and 72 hours, and the defenders are also defending the city in turns, killing and shaking the sky outside the Tiger Prison Pass, to put it a little mysteriously, the war drums of the Tiger Prison Pass can be heard hundreds of miles away, and the faint sound of digging the tunnel is all hidden......

As soon as Hu Zhen went to sleep, there was a scout who was responsible for monitoring Hu Zhen's movements to report the news to the artillery who supervised the siege of the city today.

Pao Da was afraid that the enemy would see the problem, so he asked Guan Yu to report to Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao was drinking and playing chess with Kong Rong in the big tent, and when he saw that the cannon had sent a department to report in the future, he was a little unhappy in his heart, but as soon as he heard that Hu Zhen had finally gone to sleep, Yuan Shao's little unhappiness was immediately swept away, and the herald had already been approved by 10,000 loyal players to form a death squad under the command of Yan Liang, enter the tunnel, go straight to the tiger prison pass, open the city gate, and enlarge the army into the city!

Pioneer into the city, open the gates! It's definitely the first merit to win Guanke City, which is a lot of points! Players enthusiastically enter the tunnels, and sneak through the dark tunnels with a few torches lit (too many torches will suffocate people)

Guan Yu saw that Yuan Shao didn't ask him any questions, and after listening to the report, he went to assign the task, and he didn't even give himself saliva to drink, so he was very angry and returned to Pao Dayou's side with a red face.

Cannon Dayou comforted Guan Yu, despised Yuan Shao, and ordered the players who were besieging the city to step up their attacks, cover the players who were sneaking up in the tunnels, and just wait for the city gate to open, and then attack the city!
