Crossing the Battle of the Three Kingdoms

The moon was high and the wind was dark, and the closed gate of Tongguan was slowly opened, and most of the camps that had rested for several hours started to move towards Guishuang's garrison.

Getting closer and closer to Guishuang's army, trapped in the camp and slowed down, several riders spread out flexibly, and under the cover of night, they quietly moved forward.

Chapter 731 Victory

After some investigation, I learned that although Guishuang's army did not set up a stronghold, the location was not conducive to the cavalry attack, and the patrols were intensive, and the soldiers also slept in armor. Far ready to wait in the wings.

Guishuang's army didn't notice all this at all, and after dawn, they still acted as before.

After two days of rest, the follow-up food has also been delivered, Wu Mu is eager to take revenge and let the army have a full meal, and immediately rushes to Tongguan.

This time, Wumu didn't talk too much, and directly ordered the army to tackle key problems, preparing to sacrifice some lives and take Tongguan by force.

Seeing Guishuang's army tackling key problems, Gao Shun commanded Cao's army to defend against the enemy in the face of danger, and suppressed Guishuang's army to death.

After a day of hard work to no avail, Wu Mu had long thought that, after all, where is the dangerous terrain, if it was really so easy to break through, he would not have wanted to sneak attack Zhong Yao before.

When it was dark, the troops were rested, and Wu Mu had already suffered a big loss, so he didn't care about it. He still arranged heavy patrols like yesterday to prevent being attacked at night.

After a peaceful night, Wumu gathered the army early and started a new day of attack.

Seeing that the sun was in the middle, the offensive was still the same as yesterday, there was no change at all, Ebony seemed a little anxious, and began to issue orders, urging to intensify the attack.

When Wumu's order came, Guishuang's army stepped up its efforts, but the Tongguan defenders had long been accustomed to this offensive and defensive battle. It was impossible for Guishuang's army to make progress for a while.

Seeing that the effect was not very obvious, Wumu knew that it would take some time to win Tongguan, otherwise no matter how hard he pressed, it would not be effective.

The offense and defense have been going on without much change. Seeing that Guishuang's army is about to reach the closing time, suddenly the gate of Tongguan opens, and countless Cao troops swarm out.

This sudden change startled Wumu, and hurriedly ordered the guards who were on guard against the attack to go forward to meet the enemy, and ordered the attacking army to retreat to rectify the offensive.

Blessings and misfortunes never come singly, just when Wumu sent his own soldiers to fight Cao Jun who had killed in the pass, the rear tiger watched the trapped camp for a long time, and seized the opportunity to charge.

Faced with the enemy, and another day of research, even if Wumu is the God of War alive, facing such a situation, he is powerless.

In such a situation, retreating as soon as possible is the best policy, but after retreating, Wu Mu knew very well what kind of treatment he would face, so he chose to fight to the death.

"If there is someone who turns back, kill, attack forward, kill into the pass, kill! Kill!..."

Wumu's heart-piercing roar let Guishuang soldiers know that they had no way out, and the only way to survive was to fight to the death and capture Tongguan.

But in such a situation, these soldiers who have fought all the way are very clear in their hearts that obeying orders can only lead to death.

But retreating in battle is also death, both left and right are dead, so why not choose a way to die.

One of the slave soldiers behind the ebony soldiers couldn't stand it any longer, and raised his weapon to stab at the soldiers who usually flaunted their might to them.

"what!"

"what!"

These soldiers didn't expect that the people in the rear would turn against the water at this time and accidentally hurt the two of them for a while, so they reacted and shot the slave soldier to death.

If there is one, there are two. The slave soldiers who have long been overwhelmed by oppression no longer care about so many, and raise their weapons to fight with the soldiers.

The soldiers in the middle faced the double attack of Cao Jun and the slave soldiers in the rear. They didn't resist for a long time before they were all killed.

The surviving slave soldiers immediately put down their weapons when they came into contact with Cao Jun, and raised their hands high, indicating that they had no resistance and wanted to surrender to save their lives.

It was the time of the battle, and it was a good thing for these slave soldiers to surrender. Xia Houyuan, who led the army out to fight, ordered the army to avoid these surrendering enemy troops and kill the stubborn enemy soldiers who were still struggling to resist. go.

The battle situation is getting worse and worse, Wumu knows that the situation is over, and he also wants to retreat, but where can he retreat?

Even if they retreated to the base camp, at most they would save these troops, and their own lives would definitely not be saved.

It would be very easy to live on, but on such a day, with Ebony's extreme personality, he would rather die.

The death was decided, and Wumu was no longer in command, but led the only few hundred people around him to stop the retreating army. He wanted these soldiers and horses to be buried with him.

After several hours of fierce fighting, the sky had turned completely dark, and Guishuang's army finally collapsed. Half of the surviving army no longer ignored Wu Mu's order, and retreated in all directions led by the little commander.

Seeing that the whole situation collapsed, there was a sneer on Wumu's face, and the only remaining hand slowly took out the Wuya knife, and stabbed and pulled violently towards the abdomen.

"thump!"

Seeing that Wumu understood himself, the soldiers following him looked at each other and fled the battlefield one after another.

The enemy army broke up, Xia Houyuan did not withdraw his troops, but cooperated with the trapped camp and continued to pursue.

Xia Houyuan's troops had just arrived, and they went into battle without taking a break. It stands to reason that it would be best to withdraw troops at this time, but he is used to rushing and using troops.

Furthermore, all the elite generals of Cao Cao were selected for him this time, in the hope that he can give full play to his strengths and make great contributions.

On Tongguan, Gao Shun's eyes were fixed on the battlefield. Although he couldn't see clearly in the pitch black, he was still like this. One could imagine the tension in his heart.

"Report! Our army has won a big victory, the enemy army has completely collapsed, and General Xiahou is leading his army to pursue."

"Okay, once this battle is won, Guishuang Kingdom will never want to spy on the Central Plains. Send an order to gather the army and prepare to go out and pursue."

Gao Shun rarely showed a smile, and without thinking, he was used to giving orders.

Cao Bing, who came to report, heard the order and hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether he should notify or not. After all, all the troops in Tongguan were out, and he couldn't bear it if something happened.

Seeing that Cao Bing was unmoved, Gao Shun remembered it and said, "Let's gather the army first, I'm going to discuss with Lord Zhong Yao."

"Yes." Hearing this, Cao Bing finally felt relieved, and quickly took orders to inform.

When he came to Zhong Yao's residence, seeing that the light was still on, Gao Shun knocked on the door and said, "Master Zhong, Shun has something urgent, can you come in?"

"General Gao, come in quickly if you have something to do."

Hearing the reply, Gao Shun opened the door and entered. Seeing Zhong Yao half lying on the bed, he said, "Master Zhong, General Xia Houyuan has come to help. The enemy army outside the pass has been defeated, and they are now chasing and killing them."

"Shun wants to dispatch the army in the pass, follow Xia Houyuan, approach the army behind Guishuang, and try to keep the battlefield outside Tongguan, what do you think?"

Keeping the enemy away from the door will indeed reduce the rate of concern. Zhong Yao thought for a while and said: "This method is good. General Gao can leave more than [-] people to garrison, and the rest can be sent out."

"Okay." Seeing Zhong Yao's agreement, Gao Shun nodded slowly, glanced at Zhong Yao, paused for a moment and said: "Master Zhong, since the danger of Tongguan has been resolved, Shun will lead the army to leave."

Chapter 732 Separation

Hearing that Gao Shun was leaving, Zhong Yao, who was originally happy, changed his face, revealing a trace of reluctance in his heart.

This reluctance is not the other's reluctance. Although the two of them spent a short time together, Gao Shunzhan showed an incomparable leading ability in such a short period of time.

Looking at Cao Ying, except for a few counselors who may be able to match him, the rest should fall behind him. It would be great if he could take refuge in the prime minister, but this is impossible.

Reluctant to give up and return, Zhong Yao put away his thoughts, forced a smile and said: "A gentleman does not force others to make things difficult. General Gao is going, so let's go. It's a pity that this farewell, I'm afraid we will have a different scene when we meet in the future."
