Chen Zhou returned to the camp and saw Wang Yu and them, busy carrying grain and grass, preparing to go on the expedition.

Everyone was busy, and no one paid attention to Chen Zhou for the time being.

However, Cao Zhang is an exception.

He checked his weapon excitedly, brought a cloth, wiped his saber over and over again, and then sorted out the spear in his hand, looking eager to try it and ready to go out to kill the enemy at any time.

"Sir, I have a hunch that I will definitely have a chance to go to war this time."

Cao Zhang said excitedly.

Chen Zhou said: "The third prince is very confident! ”

Cao Zhang smiled and said: "Of course, I will go to my father later, I will definitely get the opportunity to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, as the son of the Cao family, how can I not have some military merits?" ”

"Sir."

Before Chen Zhou could respond, Ma Yunlu came again at this time.

She didn't come simply, but wore a suit of armor, a saber and a gun, and was heroic, like a female general who had fought on the battlefield and experienced a hundred battles.

Compared to Cao Zhang, he is more like a general.

"Yunlu, why are you dressed like this?"

Chen Zhou asked.

Ma Yunlu puffed up his chest and said: "I am here to protect Mr., and I am going to fight with the Western Regions next, I want to follow Mr. and never allow Mr. to be harmed." ”

The chest is relatively straight.

Chen Zhou glanced at it and felt that Ma Yunlu's figure was still not good, and he looked a little small.

Among so many ladies, Ma Yunlu is the youngest.

"I'm just going to make up the numbers, it's impossible to go to the battlefield, but it's okay for Yunlu to come along, when I'm bored, there is still someone who can talk."

Chen Zhou did not object.

"Thank you, sir, for your consent."

Ma Yunlu said excitedly.

It seems that it is a great honor to be by Chen Zhou's side.

They also simply packed up their things, and they were going to go out with the army early tomorrow morning, and the whole military camp was busy, but the busiest was the rear army baggage camp.

When marching and fighting, food and grass are the top priority.

——

Yumen Pass.

The guards of the various cities of Dunhuang are all gathered here.

There are also two counties of Jiuquan and Xihai, and the closest county to Dunhuang County, which also sent a large number of troops to support.

At present, the foreign enemy is at a critical juncture, and the three counties in the west of Liangzhou have to all mobilize to resist the enemy together, and they all understand the truth that not only these three counties, but also Zhangye and others are also sending troops to Yumen Pass.

They knew very well that Cao Cao's support must be coming quickly.

As long as it can be supported, when the support of the Cao army arrives, everything can be reversed, the Yumen Pass will not be lost, and the Hu people will not be able to fight in.

At this time, more than 10,000 guards were concentrated at Yumen Pass.

The Western Regions Coalition attacked Yumen Pass three times, and is about to fight the fourth time.

Yumen Pass occupies a dangerous terrain, the people of the Western Regions are the same as the Xianbei people, they are far less good at siege warfare than the Han people, and there are not many siege equipment, even if the guards at this time face more than ten times their own enemies, they can still hold it.

It's just that after a few fights, all the guards are a little out of breath.

Of the more than 10,000 people, less than 9,000 remain.

In the face of foreign enemies, they are unprecedentedly united, sworn to resist, no one retreats, once they retreat, their families in Liangzhou, no one to protect, in the end there is nothing, they must fight to the death, keep fighting.

However, the enemy outside did not give them a chance to recover.

Another assault was launched.

Although the people of the Western Regions are not as good at attacking cities as the Han soldiers, there are many people in the Western Regions, and once the number increases, the guards of Yumen Pass will still be overwhelmed.

"Kill!"

Seeing that the soldiers of the Western Regions continued to fight, the guards of Yumen Pass all shouted loudly, and all of them rose up to resist, and all kinds of things guarding the pass were brought up.

"Quickly move the wood and stones."

"Come on, make a fire, boil water, and pour boiling water."

"Wolf tooth shoot, move over here, quick!"

A general in charge of command, standing on the wall of the pass, shouted hoarsely.

The rest of the soldiers, under his command, tried to do their best, and did their best to hold the pass and defend strongly.

"Kill!"

The soldiers of the Western Regions Alliance outside the pass also let out shouts one after another, and the sound of shouting and killing came and went.

"The soldiers of Liangzhou are not afraid of death!"

When the lord of Yanqi saw the guards at Yumen Pass, knowing that there were not many people and insufficient combat strength, he was willing to resist desperately, and no one wanted to surrender, so he couldn't help but be in awe and admired them.

Iliar sneered: "I look at the guards of Yumen Pass, the number of people is only this, it should be that there is something wrong with Han Sui's internal affairs, there are not enough troops to defend Yumen Pass, maybe the Xianbei people are also here." ”

They still don't know very well what happened inside Liangzhou.

I don't even know that the Xianbei people have long been chased and killed by Cao Cao, the news is blocked, and there is a jade gate in the middle, and a lot of news can't be transmitted.

Slamu narrowed his eyes and said, "I have a hunch that in today's battle, I can break through and enter Dunhuang." ”

Today's number of guards at Yumen Pass is getting smaller and smaller, and they are becoming less and less powerful, and their morale has plummeted.

Harrick laughed and said: "Then arrange an additional 20,000 people, continue to storm the past, and enter Dunhuang, we will plunder first, and the cities of the Han people, any one of them will be much richer than ours." ”

Hearing this, a trace of greed flashed in the eyes of these lords at the same time.

All the property looted in Guzang before was snatched back by Han Sui, and Harik and Iliar were very sorry and distressed.

At the same time, he was super resentful of Han Sui.

This time, they want to get back everything they have lost.

Let Han Sui regret it, regret not being at the beginning!

Ai Shan agreed: "Increasing manpower together, aren't we imitating the Han people and making a rushing car that storms the city gate?" Take it and try it out. ”

The order was quickly passed down.

A large number of coalition soldiers joined the battlefield.

The common interests they face are in front of them, and they remain united for the time being, no matter what, they will fight first and then talk about it, and then divide the interests after the fight.

When the jade door closed, the general suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

"General, the wood and stone are used up, and the arrows are also used up."

"We don't have firewood, we can't make fires anymore, and we ...... There is not enough water either. ”

"The enemy has increased his forces, and he is about to lose his position."

The soldiers beside the general said eagerly.

In the northwest region, there is already a shortage of water, wood, and defensive materials.

Before the general could respond, there was a loud "boom" from the gate of the pass.

At the same time, they lowered their heads and looked down, only to see a huge rushing cart, violently slamming the city gate.

There are more ladders to build towards the walls of the pass and launch a stronger assault.

The whole pass, crumbling, is about to be breached.

"General, what shall we do?"

Another soldier asked eagerly.

The generals don't know what to do, but they definitely can't hold it, and Dunhuang will soon suffer.
