Chapter 214 Dawn Breaks the Water
Three days later, in the evening, Zhao Yang said goodbye to Sun Jian.
This mission originally didn't require him to go out, but he was worried that the borrowed soldiers and horses would be difficult for Zhang Xian and others to manage.
"Brother Wentai, whether this sneak attack can succeed depends on how much help you give me, brother."
When Sun Jian heard this, he immediately expressed his position, he reassured Zhao Yang, this time he also let go, as long as it was the agreed hour, he would take the lead in attacking.
Zhao Yang nodded, in fact, he still trusted Sun Jian, but for the other princes, he could only say two words to express his thoughts.
Zhao Yang received Sun Jian's reply, and immediately ordered the army to march in batches to the designated position, and he ordered Zhao Yun and Zhang He to collect the camp.
Zhao Yang quietly told the two that when the war began, they must not be reckless.
Wait for a powerful moment to attack, with the least price, in exchange for attractive results.
Sun Jian looked at Zhao Yang's distant back, and only had deep expectations in his heart, if he could break through Bishui Pass this time, then his prestige as a Jiangdong Tiger would be even higher.
Zhao Yang took advantage of the moonlight to lead the borrowed 8,000 men and horses to the hiding place of Zhang Xian and others, and he ordered the army to rest immediately, and then there was no time to rest again.
After receiving the order, the generals at all levels took their subordinates down to rest.
Zhang Xian found a small cave, Zhao Yang was overjoyed, and immediately asked his subordinates to set up more than a dozen cauldrons, and he took out a lot of materials to let the army eat a full meal.
Zhao Yang's attitude deeply touched these soldiers, and they all said that they would definitely abide by Zhao Yang's orders, and they would never disobey the yang and the yin.
Zhao Yang laughed, he kept cheering everyone up, and the morale of the soldiers immediately rose a lot.
The army rested for two hours this time, Zhao Yang asked everyone to erect a torch every five meters, Zhang Xian and the three led the way in front, and the army quickly advanced in the southwest direction.
Zhao Yang observed the surrounding terrain and landforms, and he quickly recorded them in his mind in case he needed them.
I don't know how long I walked, Zhang Xian turned back and informed Zhao Yang that he had arrived at the place, Zhao Yang asked the army to form a formation of two columns, and he also hurried to the front.
In the sky tonight, there was no moonlight, and by the light of the torches, Zhao Yang could barely see the appearance of the path.
Like a big python, crawling on this hill.
The dense vegetation around it wrapped its body tightly, and if it weren't for the guidance of Zhang Xian and others, it would be difficult for Zhao Yang to find here.
"Brother Qin Ming, you lead the way in front, Brother Zhu Tong must remain quiet all the way to the rear army, no matter what happens, don't panic; Zhang Xian, you are in the middle, after all, everything here is most familiar to you. ”
Zhao Yang gave the order to go down, and the entire army immediately took action, along the rugged mountain road, and with difficulty moved towards the back of Bishui Pass.
Zhao Yang stood in a raised place, trying to see if he could see the situation like a water pass, but unfortunately this place was really far away, and he could only see its general outline.
Zhao Yang tried it, then gave up and was relieved.
Since he couldn't see the lights turned off by the water, the other party couldn't see them either, and he let the whole army light the torches when he thought of it.
From afar, it looks like a fiery dragon moving forward.
"Lord, if you go five miles ahead, you will reach a cliff, and from there you will go down to the right and walk eight miles to the right, and you will arrive at the west gate of Bishui Pass."
When Zhao Yang heard Zhang Xian's introduction, he looked up at the sky, and there was only one hour left before the agreed time.
Zhao Yang sent someone to tell Qin Ming to hurry up and set up a rope ladder at the cliff for the use of the army.
If it weren't for the sufficient reserves this time, Zhao Yang felt that the fighter would be delayed, and when the last soldier came down, he immediately ordered the whole army to speed up and rush to the west gate of Bishui Pass.
In Bishui Pass, Li Meng and Wang Fang were drinking in the pass, since Hua Xiong was killed, they felt pressure, and wanted to ask Xiangguo to send more people, but who knew that he went to Tiger Prison Pass.
The two once suspected that they were completely abandoned by Dong Zhuo.
However, fortunately, the terrain of Bishui Pass was special, and the Kwantung coalition forces could not launch a full-scale attack.
A few days ago, in the face of the frenzied attack of the coalition forces, they defended themselves, and they did not see any difficulty.
This also made the two gradually regain their confidence, and repelled Sun Jian's attack for several days in a row, which gave them the illusion that the coalition forces were not so terrible.
Suddenly, a fierce drum sounded outside the gate, and the two of them dropped the wine bottle in their hands in shock, and after dressing up in a panic, they ran out of the gate and rushed to the city wall.
The sky was slightly bright, and the coalition army had already set up a position in front of the pass, and the defenders looked at the momentum of the army under the city, and their legs trembled unconsciously.
Although Li Meng and Wang Fang are a little floating now, the soldiers at the bottom are really bearing the fierce attack power of the other party.
"Pass my general order to immediately launch an attack on Bishui Pass, this time if you don't break through this pass, you will never withdraw your troops, and any passive slacking off will be decided."
Sun Jian's stern military orders made the princes around him who wanted to speak stiffly hold back.
They looked at Sun Jian's cold expression, and they didn't know what was going on, so he had to conquer this level.
Isn't it fragrant to live here?
Why do you have to fight and kill, as long as we don't let them disturb the battle situation over there in the Tiger Prison Pass, it will be a great achievement.
If you don't feel comfortable, you have to find some trouble to be worry-free.
Of course, they can only nag these words in their hearts, and no one dares to really speak, after all, no one here is his opponent Sun Wentai.
The rapid sound of war drums inspired the courage of the allied soldiers, who desperately launched a rain-like attack towards Bishui Pass.
As soon as the battle began, it entered the white heat.
Looking at the fallen soldiers, the good old man Tao Qian wanted to persuade Sun Jian several times, but he was deeply frightened back by Sun Jian's sharp eyes.
At this moment, the West Gate of Bishui Pass is quiet, after all, Wang Fang and Li Meng will not come up with it if they want to break their heads, and the enemy will come from here.
Therefore, at the beginning of today's battle, they were at the west gate, leaving only 500 men to garrison, and the rest were all transferred to the east gate to participate in the battle.
"My lord, could this be a conspiracy of the defenders?"
Looking at the lax Xiliang Army, Zhang Xian really couldn't believe the phenomenon he saw, could it be that the guards were really so confident.
Zhao Yang seemed to have thought of something, and he quietly told Zhang Xian that maybe the other party thought that Xiongguan was long and no one could fly over.
At this time, they heard bursts of shouts and killings, and Zhao Yang knew that Sun Jian had kept the agreement and took the lead in attacking.
He didn't delay any longer, and immediately asked Dian Wei to lead a thousand thousand Niu Wei to go to earn the gate.
Dian Wei waved his hand, and a thousand people immediately walked out of the team, which made Zhang Xian and the other princes' subordinates stunned.
The state army is so terrifying!
With a single gesture, thousands of people can be gathered, and such a speed is really eye-opening for them.
Dian Wei didn't know how shocking he was to others just now, but now he was leading the team to touch the bottom of the wall, looked up, and gestured towards his subordinates.
Zhang Xian and the others looked confused, not knowing what it meant, but the next scene made them wooden people on the spot.
The team of thousands of people immediately dispersed, they seemed to be possessed by divine powers, dozens of ropes flew up the wall at the same time, and then climbed up along the ropes.
Dian Wei looked around after going up, only made a gesture to wipe his neck, and then turned to go down.
The five hundred Xiliang troops guarding the city are all asleep at this moment, and they never thought that this sleep would be the end of their lives.
The door was closed and slowly opened, Dian Wei shook the torch three times towards Zhao Yang's side, and Zhao Yang Daxi led the army to rush over.
The Bishui Pass, which was in a dangerous terrain, was broken in this way.
