Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 1011 Battle at Pass

  Although the rain has stopped, the sky is still gloomy. It is so dark that it seems to be three feet above the head. It seems that you can wring out a ball of water with your hand. It is extremely oppressive.

  The soil between the mountain roads is full of water, and some small water flows from the top of the mountain along the crevices of the rocks after the rain, and there is a wet piece everywhere.

No matter which side is concerned, this is extremely annoying weather. The general bowstring is damp and weak, and the nail plate is prone to rust when it is wet. If the rust is not rubbed off within three days, the rust will disappear. It will spread and even form a whole piece, and the armor will be considered half useless.

   Not only that, the low-pressure wet weather brings boredom to people, but also brings muddy mountain roads. Soldiers and horses walking and running among them will quickly exhaust their physical strength.

  No matter from which angle you look at it, the rainy summer season is not a good weather for the Han and Hu people to fight.

  But for the attackers and defenders at the Dry Bone Pass, such weather had to be fought.

  For Xianbei, now is the time when the two sides of Yinshan are confronting each other. Only by passing here and entering the south of Yinshan as soon as possible can it bring the greatest shock to the warring parties.

Cutting off the reinforcements of the Han army, the morale blow to the Yinshan camp is naturally extremely heavy, and in this way, the initiative is basically in the hands of Xianbei, even if the Yinshan camp cannot be cleaned up, they can still be plundered in Han A large number of people and property passed through the Dry Bone Mountain Road and returned to the Xianbei Royal Court. This battle will never be lost.

If there is a slight delay, let's not talk about who won the victory on both sides of the Yinshan Mountain, just say that the Xianbei army on the Dry Bone Mountain Road has traveled a long distance here, but has nothing to gain. The prestige of King Budugen was also a huge blow!

Budugen is also in a relatively delicate state now. If he cannot continue to maintain his prestige and reputation in the tribe, then the original slight suppression of Ke Bineng may cause a chain of subtleties. Response, at that time, let alone whether Ke Bineng would have any other ideas, I am afraid that the old Xianbei tribe handed down from Tan Shihuai's time will weigh it again in their hearts.

  Before King Tanshihuai was alive, he resisted Dingling in the north, attacked Wusun in the west, advanced in Fuyu in the east, and resisted the great Han in the south. What a majesty it was!

   Now, King Budugen, although he is not very old, looks a bit sluggish no matter how he looks, it seems that the biggest goal of his life is to let Kebi surrender in front of him...

   This comparison makes people speechless.

  A hero on the grassland should use the hardest bow, ride the strongest horse, and have the most beautiful woman in his life, so that the whole world will tremble before his horseshoes?

   How many grasslands and lands are there in this world, waiting for the heroes on the grassland to fight for?

   For the Han people here, they also have to fight.

  Since the Yinshan Hetao area has been captured, it is natural to guard it, otherwise all the previous efforts would be in vain? As a frontier boy who set foot in Yinshan for the first time in a century and guarded the Han family's fence again, he has no reason to take a step back!

  In addition to farming, Yinshan Hetao is more importantly a paradise for raising horses. If this piece of land is lost again, then the legs of the Han people will be shortened by half forever, and the Xianbei must not be captured again!

  At this very moment, in the Dry Bones Pass, the great battle is about to be unfolded in the fiercest manner among the muddy and slippery mountains.

Zhang Liao had just repelled another Xianbei attack, and threw out the captured enemy's spear, making a "whoosh" piercing through the air, while the opposite side was forming an formation to prepare for the next attack One of the Xianbei soldiers didn't pay attention, and was shot immediately. The large shield and sword in his hand fell to the ground with a clang, and blood gushed out from his chest, splashing all over the faces of the Xianbei soldiers who lined up together.

The soil in front of the pass has been trampled to pieces, and with the blood soaked from the corpses, it is not easy for the horses to charge, not to mention that the pass is only as big as three or four cavalry in parallel, if you want to rush up in large numbers, you will be blocked in the city. Can't get in the door.

  In the current situation, the cavalry on both sides have been forced to turn into infantry, and they are fighting around the abandoned city gate of this small dry bone pass.

After more than a dozen soldiers in the Xianbei formation, Turkin, who had just arrived with the rear team, couldn't help but let out a roar when he saw this situation, and even the soldiers around him cursed in unison Make a sound, but the mountain road is like this, the pass is so narrow, no matter how angry they are, they have no way to directly join the battle group.

It's not that the Xianbei people didn't have any crooked ideas, but all the arrows shot were covered by the shield-holding guards beside Zhang Liao, and once the Xianbei people started to attack upwards, their own figure would block the back The route of releasing the cold arrow was arranged, so the plan of the sneak attack was broken.

  Before the pass, the scattered corpses were all Xianbei people, and the blood almost dyed the land in front of the pass into a shocking bright red color.

  Although the Kugu pass is dilapidated and collapsed, it seems that as long as the man in the gate stands there, this place will become a natural moat that the Xianbei people will never be able to overcome!

The Xianbei soldiers came all the way through the muddy mountain road, and the mud immediately covered them was thicker than some people's armor. They originally thought that they would come here to repair and take a break, but they didn't expect to fight with the Han people here. Such a hoodwinked encounter.

The commander of the Xianbei scout who led the troops here first, when he first saw the Han army coming, he made an ambush, shot and killed the general of the Han army, and then charged for a while, disturbing the Han army formation, and then retreated to the pass Going to the defense to wait for the follow-up plan of Turkin's troops, but the result not only failed to achieve such a wishful plan, but was directly beheaded by the Han generals at the city gate. The corpse shrunk into a ball beside the city gate hole was this Stupid and incompetent guy...

  In the Han army, when did such an army capable of fighting in the field and fighting come out?

  When did such a hero, such a brave man appear?

This kind of Han people, he killed himself from Yanmen to Wuyuan, from Yunzhong to Hedong, like driving cattle and sheep all the way, easily dispatching thirty or fifty people, can drive hundreds of thousands of Han people to flee in a hurry The southern neighbor?

  When was it so difficult to carry out cultural integration?

  Yinshan Dry Bone Mountain Road, there is only one mountain road that can walk horses. If you want to go around, you can't go around it, unless you exit the entire Dry Bone Mountain Road, and then go around the entire mountain range to find another way. Therefore, there is no way but to collide with iron and blood here to get through the congestion of the Han army!

Both sides have turned into infantry without agreement, so that a small army formation can be deployed to some extent, and they can cooperate with each other. Otherwise, the width of three or four horses at a time will be insisted on charging with cavalry, not to mention the speed before the pass. If you can't lift up the attack, you also need to guard against the bows and arrows of the Han army on the waste wall of the pass. No matter how you look at it, it is an act of death. Therefore, carrying a large shield and advancing step by step in formation has become the most correct choice and response for Xianbei soldiers.

   And this kind of team battle means the most intense hand-to-hand combat.

Even in later generations, there are soldiers who can kill with a single pull of the trigger, and many countries still maintain the ability to practice soldiers in bayonet warfare, because those who don't have the courage to face the blood of the enemy are probably not considered. The last one of the brave division.

  Zhang Liao is undoubtedly the sharpest spear tip of the Han army, and also like the heaviest hammer.

From the beginning, Zhang Liao was at the forefront. After being attacked by arrows, he not only did not take half a step back, but instead made a surprise attack first, disrupting the Xianbei people's plan, and forcibly blocked the Xianbei cavalry in the doorway. , and also stabbed the leading general of the Xianbei cavalry with a single shot, creating an opportunity for the Han soldiers to seize the pass.

From that time on, Zhang Liao stood at the forefront from the beginning to the end, with a big gun flying up and down, from the first horse to the current horse, locking the gate of Dry Bones Mountain Road like an iron bolt .

  Under the side protection of his personal guards, Zhang Liao can concentrate on facing the Xianbei soldiers directly in front. Seeing that the shield formation formed by Xianbei was approaching, Zhang Liao took a fierce step forward, stepping on the mud with his cowhide boots, leaving a deep footprint, his spear was like a heavy hammer, It hit the shields of the Xianbei soldiers together, making a deafening bang.

The Xianbei soldiers holding the shields couldn't bear Zhang Liao's strength, and the shields that were tightly closed couldn't help but become a little messy. At this time, Zhang Liao's spear was like a poisonous snake, scurrying from the exposed gap in the shield formation. When they came in, they were basically shot and shot, and when they seldom had time to return, the Xianbei soldiers were smashed and stabbed in the front by Zhang Liao, and several of them were killed immediately, showing their flaws!

   At this time, Zhang Liaofang roared: "Go!" Then he retracted his gun, took a step back, and adjusted his breath.

At Zhang Liao's side and behind, the same dozen or so Han soldiers raised their shields and formed a formation. Hearing Zhang Liao's order, they immediately moved to both sides, surrounded Zhang Liao's figure first, and then rushed forward. The powerful soldier holding the ring head knife has already jumped out from behind the shield, and slammed into the gap in the Xianbei army formed by Zhang Liao. He also took a deep breath and slashed frantically!

The pawns in the Xianbei army were about to fight back, but the following Han army sword and shield hand took a step forward, and immediately inserted in front of the soldier with his sword around his head, blocked him with his shield, and then joined forces with the soldier , tightly suppressing the Xianbei pawns on the opposite side, the two of them pushed the shields and slammed into each other, and then pushed the Xianbei soldiers on the opposite side staggeringly, and then the shield parted, showing sharp fangs like a tiger, and yelled. Yes bite!

Even if the cavalry is converted into infantry, the ability of mutual cooperation and coordinated combat that the Han people have always emphasized is still higher than these warriors of the Xianbei tribe. Although the individual force may be slightly lacking, the coordinated Han soldiers still kill The Xianbei soldiers were powerless to fight back, and in a blink of an eye several people were killed on the spot. The Xianbei army was torn apart, and there were eight or nine freshly baked corpses on the ground.

  Those armored soldiers with ring swords in both hands rushed for a round, their strength weakened, and they also retreated behind the shield player, and Zhang Liao, who had recovered his breath, roared again, and more and more people rushed out from his own shield formation!

The Xianbei fighters who had lost their formation couldn't resist Zhang Liao's second fight at all. Amidst the puff sound, two or three Xianbei fighters fell to the ground immediately. Seeing that the battle was irretrievable, the remaining Xianbei fighters jumped out With a cry, he turned around and scrambled back down.

This type of sudden encounter on the mountain valley road, the two sides in the battle are close at hand, it seems that each other's breath can be heard, and the narrow opening leads to only a dozen people at the top of each fight. It is not possible to fight on a large scale with the army. But the more this is the case, the more the bravery of the generals of the army is highlighted. There are only a dozen people on both sides at a time. , After a few rounds, it is natural to be unable to avoid the end of crashing and fleeing.

  Turkin clenched his teeth tightly, and he was also very uneasy in his heart.

   Watching the Han army generals advance and retreat at the pass, watching the Han army shoot the shield formation out of the gap, Turkin's cheeks couldn't help twitching.

   The Xianbei army retreated once again, and Turkin stared at the Han general standing at the forefront, grinding his teeth.

  In the midst of the mountain wind, the Han army will stand proudly, like a young and heroic statue, with blood on its armor, murderous, as if it will stand here forever, guarding and intercepting.

   If it is based on bravery alone, Turkin feels that he may not be much different from this Han general, but if he leads his soldiers to attack upwards, who will command the remaining Xianbei soldiers?

Besides, according to the current situation, going up by yourself now will not solve the problem in three or five rounds. In addition, there are more than a dozen Han army archers on the collapsed wall of the pass. If one misses, it is a trivial matter to get injured. For this small unit of the commander in chief, the blow to morale is irreparable.

  So, Turkin once again issued an order to combine the army formation and attack.

Although the soldiers under him did not have the bravery of this Han general, and going up would basically cost them their lives, but Turkin did not believe that the strength of this Han general was endless, and there would always be times of exhaustion and weakness. This Han army will expose a little bit of flaws, then Turkin will take his personal guards and kill him directly, beheading this Han army general before the pass, then under the ebb and flow, deeply affected The rest of the Han soldiers whose morale was hit are nothing to worry about.

   Han generals! It depends on how long you can last!

  Under the order, the Xianbei soldiers drew out more than a dozen people and gathered them together. Those holding shields held shields, those carrying knives carried knives, and those holding spears held spears...

  Turkin watched, his heart suddenly moved, he hurriedly pulled the guards around him, and whispered a few words. The personal guard nodded in response, then looked left and right, called three or four people, and walked towards the Xianbei army formation that was gathering together.

   Don’t think that I really can’t do anything about you, General Han, you like being on the front line so much? Since you are standing at the forefront, although you can indeed resist our pawns, you have also become the biggest flaw!

  Then, if you can’t escape this time, then you’re going to die...
