Return to the Three Kingdoms with the Empire System

Chapter 163
From Tongguan to Hangu Pass, the path is difficult, so Yuan Shao didn't put everyone into the battlefield at once.

According to Li Ru's strategy, if you want to capture Hangu Pass, you must draw the imperial army out of Hangu Pass.But if you want to draw the imperial army out of Hangu Pass, you must let the army pretend to be defeated.Li Ru's strategy is also very simple, that is, let Hu Zhen ambush the next group of people, and then let Duan Yan go to Hangu Pass to lure the enemy and feign defeat.

Duan Yan feigned defeat, if he ran into a defender who was greedy for merit, he would definitely be drawn out.At that time, if the number of imperial troops drawn out from Hangu Pass is small, let Duan Yan turn around and fight until most of the defenders in Hangu Pass come out.If the number is large, let Duan Yan lead the imperial army to run away, and then let Hu Zhen lead people to take advantage of the situation to capture Hangu Pass.

A very simple strategy, but often a simple strategy is a useful strategy.Although this strategy may cost a lot of soldiers, compared to Hangu Pass, Li Ru thinks the loss is worth it.For another example, in the prediction, the loss of soldiers under [-] is acceptable.

Duan Yan led [-] soldiers towards Hangu Pass, while Hu Zhen followed with [-] soldiers, looking for a place to hide.However, what they didn't know was that the two troops were operating under Ye Hua's nose.

Originally, Ye Hua brought people here to ambush, and he might have shot when he encountered the 6000 people who were simmering in the front.However, there are still 2 people of Hu Zhen behind.Because Hu Zhen wanted to find a place closer to Hangu Pass to set up an ambush, so he didn't stay too far away from Duan Yan.

Hu Zhen's 2 people almost didn't scare Ye Hua to death, they were planning to make a move, and then so many people came out.If it wasn't for the fact that he brought all the people summoned by the system, Ye Hua really thought that the people he brought were traitors.Otherwise, how could the enemy troops leave in two batches?

What Ye Hua just couldn't understand was why the enemy would act like this? Is there a difference between 6000 people and 6000 people?Anyway, they can't spread out the army.Is it really going to die?Don't be afraid of that, there are many more people in Hangu Pass than this.

Since he couldn't move, Ye Hua had no choice but to continue to lie in ambush, hoping to be lucky and come back later.But at this time, Yuan Shao was sitting on the Guanlou in Tongguan, waiting for the good news from Duan Yan and Hu Zhen.

Even though Fazheng came back at this time, he was not welcomed by Yuan Shao. Although Fazheng successfully completed the task, Yuan Shao only praised a few words, not even a decent reward.It's just that Fazheng is still in the fanatical worship of Yuan Shao at this time, and he didn't find anything wrong.After all, Fazheng is still too young at this time.

As for Wei Zhongdao, he didn't come back after persuading Yuan Shu to send troops.Wei Zhongdao only wanted revenge in his heart, and if Yuan Shao failed to fulfill his wish this time, it would be meaningless for Wei Zhongdao to go back, and he had to find another person.And if Yuan Shao's trip wiped out the whole Ye family, then Wei Zhongdao would have no point in going back.

At the beginning, Wei Zhongdao just wanted to defeat the Ye family and fight for some living space for the Wei family.However, Ye Mo destroyed Wei's family and made Wei Zhongdao become extremely extreme.

If Ye Mo knew that Wei Zhongdao was stimulated by him, he didn't know how he would feel.However, Ye Mo must not regret it. After all, the people of the Ye family who died on the grassland were raised because of the Wei family. If they don't kill the Wei family, how can they rest in peace?

When Duan Yan led 6000 people to the Hangu Pass, Qu Yi was taken aback. He thought that Ye Hua's army had been wiped out, so he hurried to the pass to check.

When he got to the wall, Qu Yi felt overwhelmed. There were only 6000 people under the wall, but they were showing off their might. If they hadn't won the battle, how could they be so arrogant?Moreover, there were only more than 2000 people in Guanzhong at the beginning, but this time Ye Hua took away [-] people, which must have made Duan Yan think that there were not many defenders in Guanzhong to be so arrogant.

"Push the crossbow cart over for me, aim at the general who was shut down, and kill him to avenge the dead soldiers!" Seeing Duan Yan who was still a little far away, Qu Yi was furious, the range of the crossbow bolt was not so long If you are far away, then I will kill you with a ballista to avenge General Ye Hua.

Duan Yan stopped at a distance of a thousand steps away from Hangu Pass at this time, and he was still thinking about how to provoke the guard of Hangu Pass. That guard would lead his troops out.While Duan Yan was still thinking about it, he suddenly saw some commotion on the closed wall, so Duan Yan looked at the closed wall very puzzled, wondering what the people in Guanzhong were doing.

Two sounds of "bang, bang" came out, and Duan Yan saw two giant crossbows flying towards him on the wall.Duan Yan was shocked, and without thinking, he rolled off the horse.Just as Duan Yan rolled under the horse, two giant crossbows grazed his back one after another, scaring Duan Yan into death.

Duan Yao escaped, but the people behind Duan Yan were not so lucky.After Duan Yan died, his lieutenant was nailed to the ground along with the horse under his crotch, which was extremely tragic.And the other giant crossbow was strung with three soldiers, but at this time the three soldiers were not dead, they just kept screaming, which made the morale of these people brought by Duan Yao drop.

Moreover, a very serious problem is that most of the people brought by Duan Yan are the defenders of Hangu Pass, and what night they have experienced.At this time, these people saw this scene again, and recalled the scene that night, all of them turned pale and broke out in cold sweat.

Duan Yan was sweating coldly at this moment, after all, those two giant crossbows were aimed at him just now.Duan Yan himself was frightened, so he didn't give the correct order in time, which caused the morale of the army to plummet at this time.

If Duan Yan could issue an order in time to kill the three soldiers, the morale of the army would not have dropped so much, but how could Duan Yan think so much at this time, he knew that he almost died just now.After standing up, Duan Yan turned over and rode his horse again, approached Hangu Pass, and shouted loudly: "A courageous person, what kind of hero is commanding a sneak attack? If you have the courage, come down and fight with me!" When Duan Yan was shouting, he really didn't dare to stay in one place, but rode around on a horse.

Seeing that Duan Yan was so cunning, Qu Yi couldn't aim the crossbow at him accurately, so he could only point his target at the six thousand troops brought by Duan Yan in a panic.From Qu Yi's point of view, since Ah Hu was wiped out, the [-] army must have participated in it.

By mistake, Qu Yi's order caused chaos in the six thousand army.As long as the ballista is loaded with arrows, it will shoot towards the six thousand army with one arrow.Those soldiers who had experienced that horrible night were completely panicked at this moment, running around aimlessly, some ran towards Hangu Pass, some ran back, in short, the [-] army was hopeless.

Seeing this, Duan Yan was stunned.Just lost like that?And it's not pretending to lose, it's really losing.Thinking of the behavior of those soldiers after returning that day, Duan Yan was relieved that he had neglected some important things.At this time, it was too late to reflect on what was wrong, and in desperation, Duan Yan could only order to retreat.

Seeing that Duan Yan's army was in disarray, Qu Yi said to Xia Mou who was behind him: "General Xia, please take your subordinates and kill all these enemy troops, leaving no one behind!"

Xia Mou didn't know why Qu Yi was so angry, but listening to Qu Yi's previous words, it seemed that someone died in the hands of this army, so Xia Mou didn't persuade him to say something like "the killing of prisoners is unknown", and he directly Take the order and go.

After Xia Mou left the customs, he led his army to chase and kill him all the way.The 1000 troops brought by Duan Yan had already dispersed, and now Duan Yao can have at most [-] people around him, which is great.

Hu Zhen found a place to hide, and saw that Duan Yan was really defeated, and there were less than 1000 people around him, and some scattered troops followed behind him.Immediately, Hu Zhen worshiped Duan Yao to the point of prostration, looking at the feigned defeat, how resembling it was.After that, Xia Mou led people to chase and kill him all the way, which made Hu Zhen admire Duan Yan even more.Allowing scattered pawns to attract the pursuit of the imperial army can not only keep the imperial army from stopping the pursuit, but also minimize their own losses. This passage is simply wise and brave.

After Xia Mou's people had passed by, Hu Zhen stood up and said to the soldiers behind him, "General Duan Yao's feigned defeat has already attracted nearly 2 soldiers from Hangu Pass. There are only [-] people in Guanzhong at most. With [-] of us, Hangu Pass must be captured!"

When all the soldiers heard Hu Zhen's words, their hearts were filled with excitement, and they only thought that Hangu Pass would surely fall today.Hu Zhen felt that if he captured Hangu Pass, then Yuan Shao would be able to unite with Han Fu and Yuan Shu to overthrow the imperial court, and then Yuan Shao would proclaim himself emperor.That Hu Zhen is the founding general of the country, the glory and wealth, the princess and the lady, enjoy it endlessly.

The soldiers thought that if they were the first to ascend Hangu Pass this time, they would get a large reward.From then on, it was no longer a dream to buy land and build a house, get promoted and rewarded, and marry the second girl from the next village.

However, when Hu Zhen led an army of [-] soldiers along the way, he saw that there were corpses strewn all over the field, and the bravery in each soldier's heart was gradually wiped away.

At this time, Hangu Pass was closed and wide open, Qu Yi stood at the closed gate, waiting for the news of Xia Mou's return.Perhaps, when Xia Mou came back, he would bring Ye Hua's body with him.The other generals, such as Xu Rong, Song Xian and others, stood behind Qu Yi, and they also heard Qu Yi say that Ye Hua led people out to ambush.

"General, enemy troops, there are enemy troops!" Suddenly, a soldier on the wall shouted loudly to Qu Yi who was behind the gate.The [-] troops brought by Hu Zhen finally arrived at this time.

When Qu Yi heard this, he was shocked and planned to close the door.But Hu Zhen also saw the scene of Hangu Pass closing and opening, and immediately led people to rush towards the closed door.And those soldiers, when they saw the door was closed and wide open at this time, the disappointment of seeing the corpses along the way was swept away, and they rushed to the front one by one.

Open and close the door, two thousand defenders, no matter how you look at it, it is a feat within reach.
