Until noon, no matter how humiliated and scolded the coalition forces outside the pass, Dong Zhuo's army remained unmoved. Only when the coalition forces were close to the city wall would they stick their heads out and shoot down the coalition forces with a hail of arrows. At this time, Yuan Shao, the leader of the alliance, could not sit still. He had already seen that the enemies inside the pass were determined to defend. However, in order to preserve his strength, his brother Yuan Shu only knew how to scold the formation outside the pass. In addition to sending a small group of soldiers to test Other than that, there is no intention of attacking at all. Seeing this situation, he knew that he could not continue like this. If Yuan Shu and others just fooled around today and did not fight the enemy at all, then other princes would definitely follow suit in the future. Don't say victory by then. Total annihilation is not impossible. So after noon, Yuan Shao sent an order to Yuan Shu and others to attack the city immediately. If there was any excuse, they would be dealt with according to military law! When receiving Yuan Shao's military order, Yuan Shu was of course very unhappy. However, even though he did not take Yuan Shao as the alliance leader seriously, he did not dare to violate the military order openly, but he was reluctant to waste his troops on At Hulao Pass, he first conveyed Yuan Shao's order to Kong Ni and Liu Dai, and emphasized that he could not shirk the responsibility, otherwise he would be dealt with according to military law. But he himself lets the players who pledge themselves to his name act as cannon fodder, using military exploits and official positions to lure players into working for him. And Kong Niao and Liu Dai are not fools. Facing a world-famous pass like Hulao Pass, there will definitely be no good results if they fight hard. Even if they have millions of troops under their command, it will not be enough, so they do not plan to use their own elite troops. , but what they did was not as obvious as Yuan Shu's. While they ordered players to join the battle, they also sent out their own cannon fodder troops. , In this way, although those who actually attack the city are only some low-strength mobs. It did not pose much of a threat to the defenders, but during the attack, the coalition's equipment troops were not idle at all. As soon as the battle began, ballistas and catapults continued to throw arrows and stones at the enemy. Although I also suffered a lot of losses. But with the cooperation of our own troops, it can also cause some trouble to the enemy. At this time, Hulao Pass has simply become a meat grinder. Players outside the pass and a small number of NPC cannon fodder troops are densely packed like ants and charging towards the city wall. The catapults were also operating at full capacity. If one was smashed, a new one would be assembled immediately. At this time, the two sides began to compete in real strength. Including human and material resources. The fighting continued until dark. Yuan Shao first ordered Jin Jin to withdraw his troops. After all the troops returned to camp, someone soon sent the statistics of today's battle: In just half a day in the afternoon, the coalition forces killed millions of players, and the three major princes also lost a large number of people. There are 100,000 NPC troops, but the defender's losses are only one-tenth of the coalition forces. However, after a half-day of non-stop bombing in the afternoon, the durability of Hulao Pass's city walls and gates dropped by tens of millions of points, although this number is negligible compared to its upper durability limit of several billion. However, even if Lu Bu immediately organized architects to repair the city wall as soon as the fighting stopped, he would not wait until dawn. It has only recovered about half. If it continues at this speed, as long as the coalition forces are given enough time, theoretically they can completely level this impregnable pass. Although at the summary meeting after each day's battle, some people criticized Yuan Shu's practice of only sending out weak players to serve as cannon fodder without sending any soldiers himself. They thought that he was passively avoiding the battle and conserving his strength. Suspicion is not conducive to the unity of the coalition forces. However, due to the power of the Yuan family, not many people agree with it. On the contrary, many people think that Yuan Shu's approach of tempting outsiders with illusory fame and fortune and letting them act as cannon fodder is natural. In their view, players He and Dong Zhuo are both threats, but now Dong Zhuo is so powerful that he has to temporarily rely on the players' power. Some people even ignored the presence of the outsider, civilians, and openly stated that once Dong Zhuo was eliminated, they would gather the power of the court to suppress the outsider forces. This time, when the NPC princes were talking, Wenmin didn't interrupt. He just sat in the corner and listened silently. Even when someone threatened to suppress outsiders, he remained silent. He knew that no matter what he said at this time, , there is no way to change these indigenous people's rejection of outsiders, because he has no way to prevent the increasingly powerful players from competing with the indigenous people for living space. Although he is also a player himself, his subordinates are all aborigines, so if one day there is a conflict between the players and the aborigines, he will really not know which side to choose in the middle. Seeing that the debate among the various princes became more and more fierce, the leader of the alliance Yuan Shao finally stood up and said: "Everyone, listen to me, we can all gather together today to eliminate Dong Zhuo and welcome back the emperor. What my brother Yuan Shu did today is indeed somewhat inappropriate. If everyone follows suit in the future, they will be reluctant to sacrifice and send elite troops to fight.By the way, those outsiders are not all fools. This is not good for us to achieve our goals. Here, I would like to apologize to everyone on his behalf. It will not be the same next time! I also hope that you can go all out to deal with Dong Thief in the future. " Hearing what Yuan Shao said, Cao Cao, who had been watching with a cold eye, couldn't help but stand up and said: "Leader Yuan, Cao Cao secretly believes that the most important thing for those in charge of the army is to have clear rewards and punishments. Only in this way can the soldiers use their lives and defeat the enemy. . However, now that the leader of the alliance thinks that what the general did today is inappropriate, he does not impose any punishment. I think this is slightly inappropriate. " Yuan Shao saw a trace of displeasure flashing across his face when he saw someone dared to refute him to his face like this. However, when he saw that the person who refuted was actually Cao Cao, he had to put away his dissatisfaction and continued to say with a smile: "Meng De's words are serious. , it¡¯s not that I¡¯m shielding my brothers, but as the ancients say, those who don¡¯t know are not guilty. We didn¡¯t explain before that we must send our own direct troops to participate in the war, and although Highway¡¯s approach today is suspected of passively avoiding war and conserving strength, he The outsiders sent also caused a lot of trouble to the enemy, and the results were pretty good, so the merits and demerits were balanced. What do you think? " Most of the princes present have some relationship with their old Yuan family. At this time, of course, Yuan Shao is the only one who follows the lead. So after Yuan Shao asked, the tent was filled with compliments and echoes: "The alliance leader is wise! "We are lucky that the alliance leader has a far-sighted vision!" " Cao Cao, who originally wanted to say something else, could only stand aside angrily and remain silent when he saw such a scene. The battle at Hulao Pass has reached a stalemate due to Lu Bu's determination to defend. Next, we will continue Looking at Sishui Pass, it is said that before the main force of the coalition army arrived at Hulao Pass, Sun Jian had already started fighting with Hua Xiong who was stationed at Sishui Pass. When Sun Jian led the army to Sishui Pass, in addition to arranging some troops to set up camp. Outside the pass, he led a large force to call for formation from Dong Zhuo's army. Although Sun Jian was known as the Tiger of Jiangdong, Hua Xiong, who was guarding the pass, was not a good person. Before Lu Bu joined, he had always been the number one combat force in the Xiliang army. , and now that Lu Bu has joined, his status has been in decline. Seeing Lu Bu's treatment, he feels quite unbalanced. This time he took the order to guard Sishui Pass, but he held back his energy and wanted to make a great contribution to prove himself. , so when Sun Jian started to call for formation, he immediately went out of the city to fight with confidence. When he saw Hua Xiong leading people out to fight, Sun Jian immediately rode up, pointed the ancient ingot knife in his hand at Hua Xiong and asked: "The thief on the other side. General, do you dare to fight me? " Hua Xiong originally came here to make meritorious service, so when faced with Sun Jian's challenge, he did not hesitate at all and rushed forward to fight with him. " Both of these two people are considered to be the first-class generals in the world. Their fighting prowess is not much different, and they are both famous sword-wielding generals, so when the two of them come up, they are like sparks hitting the earth. "Boom, boom, boom" The deafening sound of weapons clashing is endless, and they can be seen opening their arms from time to time. At this time, players from both sides watching the battle on the periphery even forgot which camp they were in, and were intoxicated by the wonderful swordsmanship of the two people on the field. In the swordsmanship competition, it is no exaggeration to say that this battle is probably the most exciting swordsmanship contest in the Three Kingdoms (although Guan Yu may be more accomplished in swordsmanship than them, but he emphasizes killing with one strike. , many of his opponents were instantly killed by him, so it was far less enjoyable than this battle.) Until a few hundred rounds later, Sun Jian's generals Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and four others were worried that Sun Jian was exhausted. , was taken advantage of by the enemy, so he rushed to help. Hua Xiong, who had already tried his best to deal with Sun Jian alone, was shocked when he saw four more generals rushing out of the enemy camp. He fended off Sun Jian's attack, turned around and ran away. After seeing Hua Xiong fleeing, Sun Jian felt a little regretful that he could not keep him, but he still ordered the entire army to attack, but because Hua Xiong was running away in a hurry, he had no time to do so. Therefore, after Sun Jian's army launched the charge, the Xiliang army was still in chaos, not knowing whether to fight or retreat. It was not until Hua Xiong returned to the formation to convey the order to retreat that things improved. Sun Jian's army was about to rush in front of them. The Xiliang army, which was caught off guard, only had to resist Sun Jian's attack while retreating. Due to Sun Jian's persistence, when all the Xiliang army withdrew, they still lost tens of thousands of troops. These tens of thousands of people are not comparable to those cannon fodder troops. They are all elite troops in the Xiliang Army. There are only 300,000 such elites in Sishui Pass. This battle was lost by about five points. One, and more importantly, the loss of morale caused by the defeat in the first battle, so this battle can be described as a great victory for Sun Jianjun (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
