Three Kingdoms: General Pan Feng, killing the enemy can become stronger!

Chapter 212 Battle of Hangu Pass
Lü Bu led the army all the way through the pass and reached thirty miles outside the Hangu Pass.

"Quickly, send someone to report to Xu Rong and make him prepare for the arrival of Ben Hou!"

"Here!"

Hearing the words, Zhang Liao quickly agreed, and then went to appoint someone himself.

But at this time, Hou Cheng on the side looked jealous and said quickly: "Your Majesty, the scout from the front came to report that Hangu Pass is still guarded by General Xu, why don't we go directly, but want to Can someone let me know first?"

Lu Bu glanced at him when he heard the words, and didn't intend to pay attention to it, but saw other people staring at him, so he slowly explained: "Pan Feng is brave, not inferior to me, but he stayed at Hangu Pass for a long time Not leaving, neither attacking nor retreating, doesn't seem like something he can do."

After thinking for a while, he still said: "Thinking back, when they formed an alliance, how high-spirited they were. Within a few months, they broke through several passes and went straight to Luoyang. Now it has been a long time, but they are still in front of a Hangu pass. I think there's something wrong with it."

Although these words hurt the morale of one's own side, they are indeed true.

Everyone in the world thinks that he is brave and foolish, but he thinks that bravery can overwhelm the world, so why do he want to do so much, anyway, no one can kill him.

It's different now, Pan Feng really has the opportunity and ability to keep him, and to fight Pan Feng, he naturally has to think about it.

For example, Pan Feng should have no profit to get up early, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to occupy a high position just by relying on the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

If it is really not sure to win Hangu Pass, the troops should have withdrawn long ago, instead of spending time here.

But now, the other party chooses to spend time here, which shows Pan Feng's thoughts.

It would be even more suspicious if Pan Feng still stood still after he entered Hangu Pass.

Of course, doubts are doubts, but no matter what, he still has to enter this level.

After all, after entering, no matter what happens, there is always a chance to take it down.

If you don't go in, then no matter what, with his tens of thousands of people, it is impossible to get back the pass.

Therefore, he wanted to know whether Xu Rong was still at Hangu Pass, and who was in control of Hangu Pass.

If it was Xu Rong, it would prove that Guan was still in their hands, if it wasn't Xu Rong, it would be dangerous.

At that time, you have to go in with caution and go desperately.

Soon, the soldiers sent to deliver the message rushed over.

"Report to the lord, General Xu is waiting for the lord to visit you in the city!" The soldier hurried over and knelt down on the ground, reporting with excitement.

After listening to his words, Lu Bu narrowed his eyes.

Since Xu Rong is willing to see him, there must be a chance on his side, or Xu Rong has not left.

But no matter what the situation is, it is enough to make him feel happy.

At least Xu Rong didn't leave. In this case, I have a little more chance of winning.

"Good! Good!" Lu Bu said excitedly.

He immediately stood up and said to the generals: "Follow me to Hangu Pass!"

"promise!"

Everyone responded in unison.

"Wait a minute, my lord, the last general will follow my lord!"

Seeing this, Hou Cheng quickly stopped Lu Bu, and told the reason why he wanted to follow.

Seeing this, Lu Bu frowned slightly, but he didn't refuse, just nodded: "Yes! Just go!"

……

Soon, Lu Bu led the crowd to Hangu Pass.

He raised his eyes to look at Hangu Pass, and found that the city walls were towering into the sky, and the city gates were tightly closed. He couldn't see clearly what was going on inside the city. He could only vaguely see a dark shadow, obviously there were heavily guarded inside.

Looking at the city gate, Lu Bu smiled slightly and said, "As expected, Xu Rong is guarding it. No wonder Pan Feng couldn't attack for a long time."

At this time, the gate of the city was wide open, and Xu Rong walked out from inside with a smile on his face.

"Marquis Wen came all the way, thank you for your hard work!"

Xu Rong came up and bowed to Lv Bu, his expression was full of politeness.

Lu Bu waved his hand: "This Marquis has just arrived, but General Xu has lived in Hangu for a long time, guarding this place, I'm afraid it's really hard work!"

"Hehe, Marquis Wen Miao Zan, please!"

The two gave way to each other, and finally, under Xu Rong's invitation, Lu Bu walked up to Hangu Pass.

The defense of Hangu Pass was extremely strict. After Lu Bu and others entered the city, they found that there were not many people inside, and there were no other people except the patrolling soldiers.

After scanning his surroundings, he said calmly: "General Xu, I heard that you have a lot of generals under your command, why don't you see one of them now? Could it be that you are worried about me, so you dare not let him go?"

"Hahaha, Marquis Wen misunderstood, although there are many generals under a certain family, how can they be against Hou Ben under Marquis Wen?" Xu Rong laughed loudly.

What he said made Lu Bu stunned. He didn't expect Xu Rong to admit that his generals were weak.

However, if you think about it carefully, Xu Rong has always been known for being cautious.

And the reason why he was able to stand out in the Liangzhou system and become a Zhonglang general naturally has his own advantages.

So he was right to be cautious.

If you really relax your vigilance, I am afraid that you really are not your opponent.

"Since General Xu said so, I can rest assured." Lu Bu said softly, "I hope General Xu will not miss the appointment!"

Seeing this, Xu Rong quickly said: "Don't worry, Marquis Wen, since Xu Rong has promised you, he will definitely not break his promise."

"That's good!" Lu Bu nodded slightly.

Then, he changed the subject and asked: "General Xu, how many soldiers and horses are there in the pass?"

Xu Rong pondered for a moment before he opened his mouth and said, "Now the soldiers under my command, plus the soldiers and horses of Marquis Wen, total about [-] to [-]."

"Oh? Fifty or sixty thousand?" Lu Bu was surprised, "How can there be so few troops under General Xu's command?"

This time, he brought more than 3 people, most of whom were from the Bingzhou Army, that is, his own trilogy.

Xu Rong said bitterly: "I fell into the enemy's trick earlier, and lost tens of thousands at once. Now there are only [-] left in the pass."

He was also a little helpless, if not, he would never have surrendered to Pan Feng.

But now, unexpectedly, Dong Zhuo would send an army to rescue him, which filled his heart with guilt.

Had he known this earlier, he probably shouldn't have surrendered.

But then he thought again, even if he didn't surrender, Dong Zhuo would be destroyed sooner or later.

Since Dong Zhuo withdrew to Chang'an, the final outcome was already doomed.

Li Jue frowned when he heard this, sighed and said, "Sooner or later, the champion Hou Panfeng will become Xiangguo's confidant."

Is this Pan Feng really so ferocious? He has repeatedly led his army to defeat their Xiliang army.

If it weren't for Pan Feng, in his opinion, those princes and coalition forces would not even be able to step through Hulao Pass!

They should still live a good life, with power in the hands of the government!
