Chapter 20 Heroes Gather at Hulao Pass (Part 2)

Guan Yu originally didn't think that the soldiers guarding the pass would go out of the city to fight. After all, with the danger of Hulao Pass, the Xiliang army had all the advantages of geographical advantages and had no reason to run out to fight.

He shouted three times in a row, but when he saw no one responding in the city, Guan Yu was about to return to the horse, but he saw the Hulao Pass suspension bridge slowly hang down, and the closed door was already open. A general took the lead and led two thousand troops.

"Don't leave if you have a red face, take a shot!" Zhang Bao saw that Guan Yu was about to leave, so he was not willing to let him go. He clamped his legs and ran up, thrusting his spear at Guan Yu.

"Hmph~" Guan Yu turned his back to Zhang Bao, and did not turn around. Seeing Zhang Bao coming, he rode his horse to continue the thousand copies. The Qinglong Yanyue Sword in his hand dragged to the ground, as if he was about to escape.

Zhang Bao stabbed the sky with a shot. Seeing Guan Yu like this, he was not willing to let go. He urged the horse to continue chasing him. He was about to catch up with Guan Yu, but Guan Yu suddenly strangled his war horse. The war horse under his crotch neighed and stood up. The Qinglong Yanyue Knife in his hand rose from the ground, and a green light flashed through the air, heading straight to Zhang Bao's throat.

This move has a name called the Drag Drag Scheme, which is extremely sharp. Even a general of the same level will suffer a loss without any defense.

Zhang Bao was chasing him, and suddenly he saw Guan Yu stop suddenly. He felt something was wrong. When he wanted to make some moves, Guan Yu's blade had arrived.

"Puff~"

The big head soared into the sky, blood splattered, and the headless corpse slid down from the horse's back weakly.

Seeing this, Guan Yu turned his horse's head again, raised the Qinglong sword in his hand and shouted sternly: "Kill!"

After saying that, he was already ahead and killed the Xiliang soldiers who had not yet reacted. Behind him, there were three hundred white horses. They were the elite soldiers who were given to Guan Yu by Gongsun Zan. They were all brave men who followed Guan Yu across the border. The Xiliang soldiers brought out by Zhang Bao were shocked that their chief general was killed by the enemy general and were at a loss. Guan Yu led his troops to kill him at this time, which made these Xiliang soldiers panic.

Three hundred white horses Yicong rushed into the crowd like three white-headed evil tigers. In Guan Yu's hand, the Qinglong Yanyue Sword weighing 82 pounds was like wheat straw in his hand. One swing of the knife, four or five Xiliang soldiers were caught off guard. Seeing the fierceness of the main general, the morale of the White Horse Yicong rose sharply. On the other hand, the Western Liang cavalry was already panicked. Seeing Guan Yu so brave, he had no intention of resisting. Two thousand people faced 300 people, they were defeated by the attack. The Xiliang army was also elite soldiers, but no one was in command at this moment, and they were fighting on their own. Some wanted to retreat to the city, while others were preparing to fight against Guan Yu, which made their own formation chaotic. Guan Yu rushed back and forth several times, and the people killed were overturned and collapsed.

Guan Yu led his army to chase the city. Hu Zhen gave an order from Guan City and shot thousands of arrows at the same time, shooting and killing them regardless of the enemy. Only then did he stabilize his position and forced Guan Yu to retreat.

Guan Yu also stopped when he saw the good news. Not to mention that he had only three hundred white horses, even if Gongsun Zan pressed the entire army and rushed in, he could not get it. Seeing that he could no longer expand the results of the battle, he decisively led his soldiers to withdraw from the range of the Xiliang army and returned to report to Gongsun Zan.

"Yun Chang is brave!" Gongsun Zan looked at it carefully in the back formation. When he saw Guan Yu return, he laughed and welcomed Guan Yu back to the tent.

"It depends entirely on the soldiers' lives. Yu dares not take credit." Guan Yu shook his head, turned over and dismounted, looked at the direction of Hulao Pass and said: "The thief army is already scared, so the general can set up a camp to support the army."

"Okay!" Gongsun Zan nodded when he heard this, and immediately ordered people to set up camp and prepare to wait for the coalition forces to arrive. The 300,000 troops were about to come. Now that the army of princes crossed the river, they gathered in the Zhongmu area. So many people were naturally not as fast as they could move alone. Even if they could travel as soon as possible, according to Gongsun Zan's calculation, it would be good to travel fifty miles a day. It would take at least three days to get to Hulao.

"The State Letter, you send someone to report the victory and urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to urge them to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to rush to .

When Hulao was closed, Gongsun Zan began to set up camps. Hu Zhen, Niu Fu, and Hua Xiong looked very handsome.

This was the first battle after the two sides contacted each other. Originally, Zhang Bao was sent to fight to reshake the spirit of the coalition forces. Zhang Bao was also a powerful general in the Xiliang army and had few opponents. Who would have thought that he was killed by a knife by a weak general in the coalition forces. Not only did he fail to dampen the morale of the coalition forces, but he instead caused the morale of his own soldiers to be frustrated.

Niu Fu looked at Hu Zhen with some complaints. If Hu Zhen had not been in charge of the battle, they would have been guarding Hulao Pass. With the strength of Hulao Pass, could the coalition forces still fly up?

Now, the power has not been established, but instead let others take the opportunity to establish their power, which made Niu Fu very dissatisfied.

"This person's swordsmanship is quite fierce, why is he just a young general in the coalition?" Hua Xiong was concerned about another question.

Experts can tell if there is any one. Although Zhang Bao is not as good as himself, he can still go through more than ten rounds under his command. Now he is being slapped by a general under the opponent's vanguard. Although there is also the reason why Zhang Bao is careless and underestimating the enemy, Hua Xiong thought to himself that even if he is not careless, with Zhang Bao's ability, he may have to die when facing this person.

Hu Zhen glanced at Hua Xiong angrily. When is it now? He is still concerned about his identity. He said a little dissatisfied: "General Zhang Bao's death has made our army's morale depressed. I wonder what strategies do you have to defeat the enemy?"

When Niu Fu heard this, he glanced at Hu Zhen in shock and frowned and said, "The vanguard of the bandit army has arrived, and the main army is probably not far away. At this time, it is the right thing for us to defend the city of Guancheng. We should not send troops recklessly."

Hu Zhen smiled and said, "General Zhonglang is too cautious. The Guandong princes are just a native chicken and a dog. Just the Duke Wen used three thousand iron cavalry to make the Guandong princes defeated. We have 20,000 soldiers at this moment, so what are you afraid of?"

Now Hulao Pass gathers three teams of Ao Cang, Xingyang and Hulao Pass headquarters, a total of 20,000 people, and they are all elite. This is also the capital that Hu Zhen dares to be so arrogant.

Niu Fu frowned slightly when he heard this. Although he was higher than Hu Zhen, the general of Hulao Pass was Hu Zhen. He could not force Hu Zhen to do anything. Seeing that Hu Zhen did not listen to his words, he was helpless and could only say, "How would General Hu be prepared to defeat the enemy?"

"Gongsun Zan came from afar, and he won for another time today. He must be arrogant. I want to go to attack the enemy camp tonight and will definitely succeed. I wonder what the General Zhonglang wants?" Hu Zhen said confidently.

Seeing that Hu Zhen did not listen to his words, Niu Fu insisted on sending troops to defeat the enemy, and said a little dull: "The general will go by himself. I will guard the Huzhu to prevent any accidents."

Hu Zhen didn't care when he heard this. Niu Fu was cautious by nature. Even if he was very sure, he had to think about it again and again. He would rather give up the fighter than take risks. He didn't know that the fighter was fleeting on this battlefield, and there was no such thing as 100% sure. Therefore, although Niu Fu was Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, he was not respected. In places like Xiliang, Niu Fu's personality was not admired.

Hua Xiong remained neutral, but he was more inclined to Niu Fu. Hu Zhen ordered Hua Xiong to stay with Niu Fu to guard Guancheng and personally ordered 5,000 iron cavalry to prepare for the war. As soon as it was dark, Hu Zhen ordered his general Zhao Cen to attack head-on, and he led his army to detour behind the enemy, preparing to attack Gongsun Zan on both sides.

It was late at night, and Zhao Cen led a man out of Hulao Pass from the small way. He did not raise a torch. He touched Gongsun Zan's military camp in the dark of night. He asked the soldiers to move the horse stake and ordered the soldiers to clamor to shoot the enemy camp with bows and arrows, but they did not enter the camp, but just wanted to lead the enemy out of the military camp.

However, three consecutive rounds of arrows fell, but Gongsun Zan did not react. He felt that something was wrong and quickly ordered people to enter the camp to investigate. As a result, Zhao Cen's hands and feet were cold. The huge camp in front of him was an empty camp, and the people inside were all straw men.

"Not good, I'm trapped! Tell the general!" After realizing that something was wrong, Zhao Cen quickly led his army to turn around and wanted to withdraw, but saw a soldier suddenly breaking out from behind him, the leader of the general, the general who killed Zhang Bao during the day.

Guan Yu led a thousand cavalry and cut off Zhao Cen's retreat. Seeing Zhao Cen turn around, he couldn't help laughing loudly: "The thief army is shameless. Don't you know that you are all under our plan and will not dismount with me and be surrendered!"

After saying that, without waiting for Zhao Cen to answer, he had already led his army into Zhao Cen's army.

Zhao Cen had seen Guan Yu's powerful force during the day and did not dare to fight. He turned around and took the horse and left, but was caught by Guan Yu. He raised his sword and knocked him down with one knife. The Xiliang army led by Zhao Cen was even more chaotic. Guan Yu led his men and horses back and forth, and then he was defeated. They threw away their armor and fled to Hulao Pass.

Guan Yu was worried about the situation on Gongsun Zan and did not pursue him. After killing the Western Liang army, he led his army into the camp and headed straight to the back camp.

On the other side, Hu Zhen heard the sound of fighting in front of the camp, thinking that Zhao Cen had succeeded, so he immediately led the main force into the military camp, but he saw an empty camp. He knew something was wrong, so he quickly turned around and wanted to leave the camp, but was blocked by a rain of arrows shot from the air.

But under the moonlight, Gongsun Zan was wearing a white robe and stood outside the back camp with a white horse. He laughed loudly and said, "Hu Zhen rebels, he won't get off his horse and surrender!"

"Kill me!" Compared to Zhao Cen, Hu Zhen, as a general under Dong Zhuo, was much more decisive. Seeing that something was wrong, he directly ordered the soldiers to charge.

"Shoot the arrow!" Gongsun Zan smiled and waved his hand. Three rows of archers had already prepared to shoot arrows at the thieves' army in turn, forming a dense net of arrows.

Hu Zhen was also cruel at this moment. Seeing that the retreat was broken, he rushed to Gongsun Zan with arrows, but was defeated by Gongsun Zan and led two thousand troops. In an instant, the body fell all over the ground.

Hu Zhen was both brave and had to lead his troops back to the barracks, turn around and prepare to fight from the other side, but he was about to encounter Guan Yu who defeated Zhao Cen and came to siege him.
