The beginning of the Three Kingdoms Cheng Yuanzhi

Chapter 102 Knowing that you can't do it

Looking at this era from the perspective of future generations, I always feel that Lu Bu's martial arts are simply not like ordinary people.

It wasn't until he saw it with his own eyes that Cheng Yuanzhi felt that Lu Bu's martial arts were more than extraordinary.
This is almost like a half-immortal!
You know, Guan Yu was called a martial sage in later generations, and he belonged to the existence of seconds, days, seconds, and seconds; Zhang Fei was also a super-class general similar to Guan Yu.

And Lu Bu can fight two such generals, plus one Liu Bei.

Although in a real master duel, with Liu Bei's force value, going up is dragging his teammates back...

But no matter what, he rushed up bravely and came back alive.

This is capital!
It will come in handy when bragging with your subordinates in the future.

……

The next day, before Hulao Pass, Yuan Shao raised his sword and shouted:

"Soldiers, the first one to kill the Hulao pass will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins, and he will be promoted to five ranks in a row!"

Hearing this, the soldiers' eyes turned red immediately, screaming and rushing up the ladder.

"Come on!"

"Go on!"

The leader said that the first one to kill the pass will be promoted to five levels in a row, five to one million, and they are now ordinary soldiers or corps leaders.

Under the heavy reward, how can you not work hard!
……

The passionate siege drums rumbled and shook, and tens of thousands of soldiers under Han Fu's command let out hysterical shouts.

Soldiers under Han Fu's command?

That's right, Yuan Shao is commanding Han Fu's soldiers to attack Hulao Pass!

Because today it's the turn of Han Fu's soldiers to tackle the problem.

As for Yuan Shao's own soldiers, they ranked No. 18.

Why No.18 days?
Because Liu Bei, the No. 19 prince, only has a dozen soldiers, they are useless.Yuan Shao could only use his status as leader to arrange his soldiers at the end.

In the sound of shouting and killing.

The first three rows of simple swordsmen holding shields, each row of nearly 300 people lined up, holding their shields high, climbed up the ladder like ants looking at the Guancheng, which is several feet high.

Hulaoguan City is dangerously high and can only accommodate so many soldiers to attack the city.Any more, and there's nowhere to put it.

Otherwise, it would not be called the first pass in Kanto.

Hu Zhen stood at the top of the city, pressed the handle of the knife on her waist, watched the Kwantung Allied Forces rushing towards them with cold eyes, and ordered in a deep voice.

"Prepare the bow and arrow, prepare the golden juice, and prepare the wood-cutter. Everyone is in position and waits for my order!"

Hu Zhen is the number one commander under Dong Zhuo's command. Not long ago, he defeated Sun Jian and other princes' attacking the city in turn. Although today's battle scene is grand, it is already commonplace for him.

Although he has only 5 people under his command, he regards the nineteen princes of the Kanto as nothing.

Therefore, even if he faced the hundreds of thousands of menacing troops imprisoned in Hulao, he was not afraid at all, and he was as stable as Mount Tai.

Hu Zhen stands majestically, with a resolute face and a tall body, making him look like an awe-inspiring and inviolable deity, giving Guan Guan soldiers endless courage.

There are more than 5000 soldiers guarding the pass, including [-] archers and the remaining [-] soldiers, who are always ready to release rolling wood and gold juice.

There are more than 4 people who can't fit in the closed doors. They are closed and rested at the moment, ready to rotate at any time.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The shouts of the coalition soldiers getting closer and closer. The three hundred soldiers in the first row were only four or five feet away from climbing the wall. The soldiers on both sides could already clearly see each other's faces, but Hu Zhen still did not order the soldiers to do anything. .

Hu Zhen knew very well that because she was holding a shield and it was so close to the ground, the lethality of attacking at this time would not be ideal.

He has to wait!
After a while, Hu Zhen raised one hand high and said word by word:

"Throwing wood!"

"Pour gold juice!"

"Fire arrows!"


Close it, and the soldiers who had been ready to go immediately smashed the prepared wooden pole down the ladder.

All kinds of voices rang out in an instant.In an instant, arrows were raining down on the city, golden juice was like splashing water, and drums were billowing.

Smash it down...

"what--"

"what--"

……

Countless screams were heard immediately below the city, and the soldiers who had climbed into the air had nowhere to hide, they were hit by beating wood, bows and arrows, and golden juice splashed one after another, screaming, dancing and falling down.

After a quarter stick of incense.

There are only dozens of ladders standing alone on the wall.

Under each ladder, there were piles of corpses and surviving soldiers in a mountainous shape.

Howls shook the sky.

At the same time, Han Fu's army dozens of feet away, with more than a thousand people holding their shields high, rushed toward the city wall.

However, this time their pace was no longer firm.

"Benchu! Mingjin withdraws troops."

"I can't attack!"

Seeing the soldiers under his command die miserably one by one, Han Fu's heart was pierced like a knife.

Such a death is meaningless.

That is the Hulao Pass where one man guards the gate and ten thousand men cannot open it.

Not to mention the 25 coalition forces, 250 million don't even think about taking it down.

So what if hundreds of soldiers can rush up?There are 5000 people waiting to be shut down, and there are tens of thousands of Dong Zhuojun waiting to be shut down.

How is this different from Baozi beating a dog?

Yuan Shao waved his hand feebly.


The soldiers retreated in an instant, faster than when they rushed forward.

They were jealous of the reward, but... they wanted their lives even more.

Those who know they can't do it but want to do it are not warriors, but idiots!

Hu Zhen stood at the head of the city, watching the coalition forces retreat with cold eyes, the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

This scene was exactly as he expected.

With such a great hero here, even if he is only given enough food and ten thousand soldiers, he is confident that he will be able to hold off the Kwantung princes for a long, long time.
In years!
"Yuan Shaopifu, I haven't used my strength yet, why did you fall down?"

"a ha ha ha……"

Hu Zhen's triumphant laughter came from the pass, which made Yuan Shao, who was stationed under the canopy of the horse, frowned and felt unhappy.

He raised his head, looked across the air, met Hu Zhen's gaze from afar, and said loudly:
"Don't be mad, rats. One day, sooner or later, I will enter the pass and skin and cramp all the rebellious officials and thieves. I will feel the hatred of today!"

All the princes looked at Hulao Xiongguan, and listened to the two sides' generals spewing trash talk to each other, all of them were silent.

The guarding party occupies the right time and place, and one is worth a hundred. So, what should we do?
In this case, hard attack is extremely unwise.

Dong Zhuo only showed his face on the first day, and he never showed up again after he was defeated.

What disappeared together was Lu Bu's flag.

As expected, they have returned to Luoyang at this moment, leaving only Hu Zhen and others to play with the princes.

With the Hulao closed, at least half a year's supply of food and grass, hundreds of thousands of arrows, and other equipment such as rolling wood and stones have been prepared.

Even if it is used up, there is a mountain behind the pass, which is inexhaustible.

Don't talk about superior intelligence and resourcefulness, as long as you defend against the enemy in the right way and guard the majestic pass, what is the use of more troops and higher intelligence?
In front of this grand pass, the iron law of "five principles of attack" has failed.

Fifty times is useless!

As long as Hu Zhen's brain is normal and she stays at the gate honestly, there is no need to worry about the fall of Hulao Pass.

"The whole army retreats!"

Yuan Shao waved his hand helplessly, and rode away first.

The dark mass of coalition soldiers retreated like a tide.

…………

Staring at the Kwantung princes who were withdrawing their troops and retreating in the distance, Hu Zhen knew that another coalition attack had been repulsed today.

"Quickly send a message to Xiangguo that our department has repelled the No. 12 offensive of the coalition forces."

It was not until the last coalition figure disappeared from sight that Hu Zhen ordered Tan Ma to deliver the good news.

Dong Zhuo only stayed here for one day before leaving. Before leaving, he was given an order to guard the gate.

Hu Zhen called a member of the army over and ordered:
"Lead your troops out of the city immediately, and retrieve those arrows and logs that were shot out!"

"It might be useful in the future."

The Marquis of the Army took the order, and led a group of people hurriedly down to the top of the city, and went out to work.

After this battle, the Kwantung Allied Forces will obviously not try to break through the barrier in the short term, but these things are sharp weapons for defending the city, and of course they must be recycled.

Seeing that the equipment was almost recovered, Hu Zhen called another military officer and ordered:
"You lead people out quickly, collect all the corpses under the city, dig a pit and bury them."

The military marquis cupped his fists and led a group of people out of the customs.

By dusk, thousands of corpses under the city had been lifted onto carts one by one, pulled into the huge pit dug hundreds of steps away, and buried properly.

In this era, there is no practice of collecting corpses for the opponent.

Hu Zhen was the first to do so.

For the time being, he doesn't know the benefits of doing so, but he just thinks that the dead body is not good-looking, so he does it casually.

After all the aftermaths were dealt with, Hu Zhen ordered the subordinates on duty to be vigilant, and then led them back to the camp.

After a busy day, it's time for him to rest.

…………

The atmosphere in the coalition army camp was dull.

Perhaps because they had seen the danger of the Hulao Pass, the Kwantung Allied Forces did not attempt to break through the pass in the next few days!
