"Behead the white bull and the white horse!" "We shed blood to form an alliance Let's fight against Dong Zhuo together!" "Do it!" The princes drank together. Lin Tian watched Zhang Liao, who represented Lu Bujun, drink the blood wine, and secretly thought that he was wise and did not let himself Take the initiative to become the representative of Lu Bujun. "Bang!" After a group of princes drank the blood wine, they smashed the porcelain bowl and shouted: "Swear to defeat Dong Zhuo!" "Swear to defeat Dong Zhuo!" Immediately afterwards, the surrounding generals also raised their arms and swore, but It also made the voices of the alliance resound throughout the sky. "Swear to defeat Dong Zhuo!" "Swear to defeat Dong Zhuo!" At Hulao Pass, Hua Xiong, who was drinking wine and eating lamb legs on the city wall, sneered disdainfully: "A group of lambs actually gathered together to attack the lion. Attack!" "Master Dong Zhuo's wisdom is not something that you weaklings can know!" "Come on, your head will be bloody in front of me at Hulao Pass!" Hua Xiong viciously took a bite of the sheep. 'Meat', swallowed into the belly. Boom! God seemed to be unfaithful. At this time, there was a sudden thunder and lightning and it started to rain heavily. Although the coalition of princes is unwilling to fight on a rainy day, they have just made an alliance, and now they give up the war because of the weather. Isn't this a slap in the face? In addition, Cao Cao mentioned that bows and arrows were weak on rainy days, and the ballistae at the top of the city had difficulty aiming at the target, which just weakened the city defense of Hulao Pass, so the leader of the Yuan Shao Alliance made a decision to start attacking the city today! Fortunately, Cao Cao was closest to Hulao Pass, and he had already made preparations and built many siege machines. There was no need for the coalition of princes to carry ladders to attack the 50-meter-high Hulao Pass. "Huh?" Hua Xiong was hiding from the rain in the city. When he heard the report from his subordinates, he quickly put on his armor and walked to the top of the city. At this time, the heavy rain poured down, hitting the helmet and forming a rain curtain, blocking Hua Xiong's sight. Hua Xiong opened his helmet and looked down with wide eyes. He found that there was indeed a large black army in the rain shadow. He couldn't help but said: "It seems that this is serious. Are you planning to take advantage of the heavy rain to weaken the bows and arrows?" ?" "My good men of Xiliang, prepare for war!" Hua Xiong pulled out a Mo Dao and shouted loudly, and immediately the Xiliang infantry walked up to Hulao Pass, shouting Dong Zhuo's name. At this time, Dong Zhuo has not lost his fighting spirit in Luoyang. He is still the military god of Liangzhou and the devil in the eyes of the Qiang people! And the Xiliang Army, following Dong Zhuo's victory after victory, became a powerful army that could eye the whole world! The soldiers of Xiliang were extremely loyal to Dong Zhuo. When fighting, they would often chant Dong Zhuo's name as if they were religious. "Beep!" The coalition of princes blew the horn, and the army began to move. Lin Tian looked at the siege battle involving 200,000 people, looked at Gao Shun and said, "General Gao Shun, who do you think can take advantage of this battle." "Xiliang Army." Gao Shun answered directly without even thinking. "Oh? Why." Lin Tian asked. "The Xiliang army is more brave than the princes' army. If the princes' elite aces are sent out, they may be able to shake the Hulao Pass city defense, but the current soldiers are just dying." "Yes, but the advantage of the princes' army is not Can soldiers be allowed to die? With so many princes allied together, the most indispensable thing now is elite soldiers! " After saying this, Lin Tian noticed a pair of vicious eyes looking at him from Cao Cao's side. . "Abrupt technique?" Lin Tian chuckled and ignored the other party. Gao Shun also sensed it, and couldn't help but look at the sudden technique, with a slight surprise in his eyes, and secretly made up his mind that he would never leave Lin Tian's side if he was trapped in the camp. As for Su Wu Shu, he also discovered Gao Shun and his trap, which made his mouth taste as bitter as if he had bitten Coptis chinensis. "This guy, the guards around him are so strong? Damn it, is fame really so useful after becoming famous all over the world?" The sudden technique is filled with hatred and jealousy. He also wants to write articles to earn fame, but it's a pity. Tu Wu Shu was holding a piece of paper, but he couldn't come up with a sentence. After all, he was not a professional. He wanted to rush out the work in this short period of time, which was really embarrassing for others. "The first one to rush to the city wall will be rewarded with 10,000 gold and promoted to the third level!" The allied forces of the princes carried the ladder and pushed the siege vehicle close to the city wall. Due to the heavy rain, the arrow rain on the city wall weakened a lot of power, making the soldiers below Morale was boosted, and the officers took the opportunity to shout loudly to encourage morale. There must be brave men under a heavy reward, not to mention these are regular soldiers.Immediately everyone rushed to climb the ladder to the city. The siege vehicle also quickly pushed towards the city cave. The twenty big men hidden in the vehicle shouted slogans and crashed into the city gate. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? When the city gate was hit for the first time, the Xiliang infantry threw rolling logs down on the city wall. The entire city wall of Hulao Pass is not a complete cliff, but tilts at about 75 degrees. The rolling logs were thrown down along the slope, immediately breaking the ladder, and the soldiers on the ladder were involved in the rolling logs, and they fell together under the city. "Kill!" Just as three of the ladders fell down, three more came over. Under the heavy rain, the soldiers of the princes climbed up in the rain and compared the number of rolling logs and falling rocks with the Xiliang infantry on the city wall. "Are you ready?" There were several Xiliang infantrymen hiding in the dark room above the city's cave. After seeing the siege vehicle entering the city's cave, they whispered and heated the boiling oil to a boil. "Ready." "Okay, open the brake and put out the oil!" Poof! In the ¡®cave¡¯ of the city, boiling oil suddenly fell down, not only eroding the siege vehicles, but also causing the big man inside to jump and cry out in pain. "Fire up!" Bang! Flames suddenly burst out, and the entire siege vehicle suddenly turned into a flaming coffin. The strong men inside tried to escape, but it was too late. The flames spread to them along with the boiling oil. The smoke and high temperature made it impossible for them to get out of the siege city. The car came down and was gradually charred into coke. Boom! Thunder and lightning cut through the rainy sky, illuminating a city head. There, the first batch of warriors finally climbed onto the city wall. "Okay!" Several generals just cheered when they saw Hua Xiong suddenly rushing over and slashing out with a sword. The sword was like lightning, killing more than ten warriors who had climbed up the city wall in one go. "Hahaha, come on, keep coming. I, Hua Xiong, am here. I will kill as many as you come!" "Kill!" Hua Xiong raised his sword and shouted loudly. The Xiliang infantry brought a batch of rolling logs and threw them down together. , and suddenly there was another sound of fractures and screams from below the city wall. Enjoying the screams, Hua Xiong laughed loudly. It rained heavily for about two hours. After the rain stopped, the princes' troops temporarily retreated. Under the Hulao Pass, only the corpse collection team in white were left working hard to stay alive. In this battle, the princes' army lost at least 3,000 infantry and 200 officers. Although this loss was completely acceptable to the princes' coalition with more than 300,000 troops, they could not accept that battle. The Hulao Pass defenders suffered very little losses. result. "Hulao Pass is the most powerful pass in the world. If you want to attack it, you still need to plan for the long term." In the meeting of princes, Cao Cao set the tone, and then the whole army retreated to the camp, arranged craftsmen, and began to build a brand new siege machine. Lin Tian noticed that there are more than 20 55-meter-high siege towers under construction in the camp. Once they are completed, they can take advantage of the archers from a high position, and the siege towers can also hide troops in them. When they are close to the city wall, they can be opened. The collapsed bridge rushed into the city in one go. In addition, Cao Cao and Zhou Yu also developed a catapult together, and planned to build hundreds of catapults to try to disrupt the enemy. Three days later, the troops of Cao Cao, Zhou Yu, and Gongsun Zan set out together. The catapult stopped at one thousand meters and threw stones at Hulao Pass. The archers of Hengjiang and the archers of Cao Cao's army walked to two hundred meters before stopping. "The Baima Yicong and Youzhou cavalry mainly wandered around the battlefield to guard against Hua Xiong's attack with the Xiliang cavalry. Hua Xiong ordered the ballistae to fire and shoot at the catapults. At the same time, he asked the Xiliang cavalry to dismount and use long bows to shoot at the Hengjiang archers and Cao Cao's army archers under the city. The two sides went back and forth like this, shooting at each other for half an hour. After the archers on both sides were exhausted, they each retreated back to their main camp. After the war, an inventory showed that not many of the Hulao Guanxi Liang army were hit by catapults, only more than 20 soldiers were unlucky and injured, but they were shot by the archers of Sun Quan's army across the river and the archers of Cao Cao's army. However, there were more than 500 dead Xiliang soldiers, plus more than a thousand wounded soldiers. In this day, the Xiliang army lost 2% of its troops, and they were all precious archers. "These princes are still somewhat capable!" Cao Cao and Zhou Yu's display of skills aroused Hua Xiong's vigilance. Next, the war at Hulao Pass entered a fierce stage. After the siege tower was built, the coalition of princes mobilized 300,000 troops to attack the city. In this siege, Lin Tian also sent 10,000 new troops to join. The top of the city and under the city wall turned into Shura Hell in an instant. siege towerThere were 22 in total. During the attack, five of them were bombarded by ballistae and shattered the superstructure, causing many casualties among soldiers, but it still allowed other siege towers to approach the city wall. On the tower, there are twenty Hengjiang archers standing. They draw their bows and shoot arrows skillfully. Every time they shoot, they can hit the soldiers of the West Route Army on the city wall. It can be said that it is the nightmare of the Xiliang Army today. . And as the siege tower lowered the collapsed bridge, the infantry inside rushed out in one breath. "Kill!" As soon as a tower was lowered and the collapsed bridge was lowered, hundreds of Danyang soldiers swung their sledgehammers to kill them. The defending Xiliang infantry was instantly torn to pieces by these Danyang soldiers, and then the Danyang soldiers divided their forces to guard the city wall. In an attempt to transport more soldiers into the city. "Quickly, occupy the crossbow fort!" In another place, the Bai'er soldiers who also came in by relying on the tower quickly rushed to the nearest crossbow fort. There were Xiliang infantry guarding there. After fighting with the Bai'er soldiers, both sides They all fell into a fight to the death. "'Shoot'!" After the ballista was loaded, there was a bang, and it hit the nearby siege tower. The tiger infantry of Cao Cao's army who had just climbed up in a tower had no time to see clearly the city of Hulao Pass. His head was blown open by a ballista ball. After the crossbow blasted his head, it also shattered the curtain wall behind him. Suddenly, the high platform where Hengjiang's shooter was sitting lost its support and fell down. "My Hengjiang shooting hand!" Zhou Yu watched with great distress as his elite fell, shaking his head constantly. Liu Bei and Tao Qian were also feeling distressed. But there was no way. At the meeting of the princes, Yuan Shao joined forces with Yuan Shu and Liu Biao to put pressure on Liu Bei and Tao Qian, forcing them to use their elite aces in this battle. As for Lin Tian¡¯s Lu Bu army, they escaped this disaster because they fell into the camp and became Lin Tian¡¯s personal bodyguards. However, Yuan Shao also requested that once Hua Xiong dispatches the Xiliang cavalry, Lu Bujun must dispatch the Bingzhou cavalry to cooperate with Gongsun Zan against the Xiliang cavalry. Of course, as the leader of the alliance, Yuan Shao also contributed. He boarded the crossbowmen first and suppressed the Xiliang infantry with firepower on the field. Watching the crossbow soldiers who were first on board fall down one by one, Yuan Shao himself was also in pain. Boom! Another siege tower collapsed because its base was ignited. The reason for the ignition was the boiling oil and candles emitted from the dark room in the city wall, which was difficult to prevent. As the sun sets, this continuous battle finally ends with the soldiers of the princes taking the initiative to retreat. The losses suffered by the princes' army were heavy. Not to mention the destruction of all the siege towers, the elite troops lost at least 3,000 people. In addition to the losses of ordinary officers and soldiers, the princes' coalition lost 20,000 troops in one morning to afternoon. . Hulao Pass is difficult to fight, this has become the consensus of all the princes.
