The World of Yellow Sky

Jia Xu understands this truth, and he also understands the importance of Shenyuan Pass.

But for some reason, the deeper he went, the more uneasy he felt.

Jia Xu also had this feeling during the Battle of Taigu Pass.

In that battle, they returned in a big defeat. If the generals of the Xiliang Army hadn't bravely stopped them, and Dong Zhuo had raised up his remaining prestige, made a decisive decision at the end, and issued the correct order. I am afraid that Dong Zhuo would have been killed by the unstoppable Sun Jian in that battle. .

Jia Xu looked cold, and turned to look west.

Outside the pass, there are nearly [-] cavalry troops from Xiaoqi and Xiliang supporting them. The problem should not be outside the pass.

Could it be that there is something wrong in the pass?

Jia Xu's eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn't notice what Huang Fusong did in Shenyuan Pass along the way.

……

"Wan Sheng!!"

The moment the catapult stopped roaring, the deafening shouts of killing resounded on the mountain road again.

The soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army once again launched an attack on the high pass. Hundreds of heavily armed soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army pushed forward slowly the heavy shield chariot covered with animal skins and tied with catkins.

They hid their bodies in the shield chariots as much as possible, and behind each shield chariot were hiding dozens of soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army, and the soldiers in the last few rows all held their curved shafts high Shield, defending against possible incoming feather arrows.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

The high-spirited drums sounded at the right time, and there was a burst of shouts from the Yellow Turban Army's formation, and the shield car accelerated again.

"put!"

On the wall, a Han army in iron armor showed a fierce look in his eyes, and suddenly swung down the ring head knife in his hand.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

The remaining six bed crossbows on the wall were activated at the same time.

The huge spear gun shot down the pass with fearful force.

"Bang!" "Duk!" "Duk!"

The six spears arrived in an instant.

A spear gun missed the target and plunged obliquely into the hillside.

But other than that, all five spears hit their targets.

As a result, cheers suddenly erupted on the wall.

But the cheers disappeared in an instant, because the five spears didn't have much meritorious service.

The five spear guns did hit the Yellow Turban Army's shield vehicle, but this time the Yellow Turban Army's shield vehicle also added thick catkins as a buffer.

Those willow catkins were sewn into the cloth by the Yellow Turban Army and became a large quilt, which was covered on the large shield of the shield car, and the shield was wrapped with thick leather made of cow and sheep skin.

The catkins were scattered in the wind, and the spears did not cause much damage to the Yellow Turban Army.

The yellow turban army shield vehicle that was shot by the spear gun was still moving forward.

Following the activation of the bed crossbow, the last trebuchet on the wall also let out its final neigh.

"Oh!"

The huge stone bomb pierced the dark sky, and quickly zoomed in on the vision of all the Yellow Turban soldiers.

"Stabilize the army!"

The Marquis of the Yellow Turban Army who led the army looked at the roaring boulder, his first reaction was not to avoid it, but to shout orders, telling his soldiers what to do.

"The great virtuous teacher is watching us from behind, we must not back down!"

No one retreated, no one left the army formation, no one yelled in fear, all the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army were silent and hid their bodies behind the shield car as much as possible.

"Oh!"

The loud sound hit everyone's eardrums.

The boulder thrown by the catapult above the wall hit the grass, and the scattered soil hit the crowd, so that the bodies of the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army around them were covered with mud spots.

The huge stone bomb sank deeply into the soil like this.

The attack on the wall did not end, and the closer the shield vehicles of the Yellow Turban Army came, more attacks followed.

On the closed wall, the crossbowmen of the Han army had already started shooting, and the dense rain of arrows shot towards the slow-moving Yellow Turban army soldiers.

"call out----"

A whistle suddenly sounded in the formation of the Yellow Turban Army soldiers, and a large number of strong archers wearing iron and leather armor quickly left the cover of the shield chariot.

"Hey—" "Hey—" "Hey—"

This time the sound was no longer the whistle of the Yellow Turban Army, but the sound of Ming Dy.

The arrow rain of the Han army did not cause too many casualties to the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army. The tall shield chariots and the curved shields in the hands of everyone protected their lives very well.

However, the rain of arrows counterattacked by the Yellow Turban Army received a miraculous effect, and the dense arrow rain on the wall became thinner in an instant.

A shrill howl came from above the closed wall, and those accomplished archers did not stop shooting. They hid behind the stopped shield vehicles, jumped out of the cover from time to time and shot at the closed wall.

Every time they draw their bows, they can almost bring out a miserable howl, with terrifying precision.

These archers wearing iron armor are actually not the crossbowmen of the Yellow Turban Army's soldiers and sharp soldiers, but the cavalry of the Bingzhou Battalion. Most of them are elite archers selected from the Southern Huns.

In these several breakthroughs, the crossbowmen of the Han army caused a large number of casualties to the infantry of the Yellow Turban Army.

Although the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army are widely equipped with crossbows, they have basically not received any training in accuracy. The crossbows in their hands are only used for salvo shooting. They only need to learn how to wind them, and then follow orders to shoot in the same direction. You can.

In order to suppress the crossbowmen of the Han army who used the crenels to shoot on the pass wall, Xu An dispatched the cavalry from the Bingzhou camp to dismount and enter the pass as infantry archers to cover the infantry attacking the city.

Through the binoculars, Xu An saw the archers of the Bingzhou camp suppressing the Han army on the wall, and couldn't help but clenched the binoculars in his hand, and the scene of the camera trembled because of this.

Taking advantage of the suppression of the crossbowmen of the Han army, the whistle of the Yellow Turban army's attack also sounded at this time, and the ladder with barbs was firmly inserted into the rammed earth wall.

The Han army on the wall also immediately counterattacked at this time, and the huge log was thrown down.

The two soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army who had just built the ladder had no time to dodge, and were hit hard by the huge log. Blood flowed from their mouths and noses, and they died on the spot.

This horrible and bloody scene did not arouse the fear of the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army, but instead became the fuse that ignited the fighting spirit and anger of the Yellow Turban Army.

"Comrades, follow me!!"

Fu Zhu, a member of the Yellow Turban Army, jumped out of the formation. Without hesitation, he climbed up the ladder.

The two hundred Yellow Turban soldiers who acted as the vanguard did not waste any time. They held sharp swords in their mouths and used their hands and feet to follow the Yellow Turban Army talismans to climb up the ladder and launched an attack towards the wall.

They need to occupy a place above the closed wall, open a gap, and give a place for the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army who are about to ascend the city below the closed wall.

More ladders climbed on the wall of the Yuanguan Pass, and the shouts of killing suddenly rose, and the swords of the soldiers clashed with each other, making the sound of golden spears.

Xu An put down the binoculars in his hand, and his soldiers on the wall were fighting bloody battles.

There is no strategy, no skill, only knife-to-sword, sword-to-sword, gun-to-gun melee combat.

The strength advantage of the Yellow Turban Army was limited by the narrow terrain, and there was no way to deploy it.

The Han army relied on the favorable terrain to defend layer by layer, even the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army would crush them in terms of morale, combat experience, and physical fitness.

In the field battle, perhaps it only takes one charge to defeat the Han army, and the Han army, which is mostly composed of recruits, will be defeated and collapse.

But now the Yellow Turban Army is the attacker, and the Han Army is the defender.

The precipitous terrain, the pass wall serving as shelter, and the supervisory team behind them all made the Han army guarding the pass tenaciously persevere.

Xu An no longer used the binoculars to observe the battle on the wall. In the past few days, through the binoculars, he saw too many soldiers dying in front of his eyes.

More than [-] military soldiers and more than [-] elite soldiers were killed or injured.

One Yuanguan made him lose a battalion of soldiers, more than [-] people, [-] living lives, the most elite soldiers under his command.

Although Xu An has tried his best to equip them with the best armor and weapons, but they are mortal bodies after all.

The statistics hadn't been completely completed, and one after another blood-stained identity plates were delivered to his desk.

Wounded and wounded are being carried off the battlefield every moment, and the battalion of wounded soldiers outside the pass is still expanding.

Now there are three more checkpoints in front of them.

These three checkpoints will be difficult one by one. According to the results of the deduction, if the Yellow Turban Army wants to break through the Yuanyuan Pass, there will be at least one more battalion of casualties, that is, 3000 casualties.

The 7000 casualties meant that the Yellow Turban Army would lose two battalions of elite infantry.

With such huge casualties, it was the first time that the Yellow Turban Army had suffered such a huge loss since Kuicheng.

But Shenyuan Pass cannot be robbed, so it has to be robbed.

"Huangfu Song..."

Xu An clenched his fists tightly, staring at the big fiery red flag with serious eyes.

……

"call----"

The mountain wind blew, and the khaki Yellow Turban Army banner and the fiery red Han Army banner on the pass wall were rolled.

"Bang!!"

A loud bang spread throughout the pass.

All the soldiers who were fighting on the wall felt the ground shaking for a while, as if an earth dragon turned over at this time.

The huge bumper was already full of strength, and the closed door, which had been dilapidated as early as this morning, shattered instantly under the more violent impact than ever before.

Outside the closed door, a group of hoplites who were covered by black iron armor, including their hands, feet, neck, and face, all raised their heads, and their eyes followed the iron surface. The gap of armor was thrown into the pass.

Gao Shun raised the iron mace in his hand, with cold eyes, he pressed forward suddenly.

Countless soldiers trapped in the camp behind them poured into the pass like a tide before the car crashed and moved away.

The shrill howls and the sound of bones breaking suddenly sounded out, but they were soon submerged in the tide of the black armor.

The tenth level, the level is broken!

Chapter 657

In the third year of Chuping (192), July [-]th.

On the seventh day of the outbreak of the Shenyuanguan War, the Yellow Turban Army was invincible all the way, and it was impossible to stop it.

Under the command of Huangfusong, the Han army defended layer by layer and fortified. Although they fought bloody battles, they still couldn't stop the front of the Yellow Turban Army.

The Yellow Turban Army has approached the last checkpoint of Zhiyuan Pass.

Twelve turns of the wheel, the last turn has been reached.

The last turn of the Yuan Pass, the last pass guarded by the Han army was built between two mountains. The mountain road is narrow and winding, with a distance of more than 200 meters. There is no way for the counterweight catapults of the Yellow Turban Army to be transported here. , There is no safe area for the Yellow Turban Army's catapults to be installed here.

The only places where catapults can be set up are all within the attack range of the bed crossbow on the wall of the Han Army Pass.

Even if the catapult was successfully set up against the attack of the Han army's bed crossbow, it could not hold on. The Han army had a lot of bed crossbows above the pass, and it would not take long for the catapult to be destroyed.

One or two catapults could not suppress the numerous bed crossbows on the wall of the Han Army Pass.

At the last pass, Huangfusong hoarded a large number of troops here, betting on almost everything.

The position of the supervisor team was filled by Huangfusong's personal guards and thousands of cavalry. They guarded the other side of the pass. They adjusted the direction of the bed crossbows that were originally facing outside the pass, and aimed at the pass.

All the bows and crossbows were ready to go, and a large number of refusal horses stood in front of the army formation, cutting off the way for everyone in the pass to retreat.

Closed and closed, countless soldiers of the Han army wore armor and sharpened. They stood on the ground, on the wall of the pass, on the horse path, and around the pass building.

Huangfusong looked down at the soldiers on and off the wall with calm eyes.

The surrounding area was terribly quiet, tens of thousands of Han troops crowded the entire Zhiyuan Pass to almost full capacity, but the scene was terribly quiet.

No one spoke, no one moved, and no sound came from all over the pass.

The entire pass was dead silent, and the only sound that could be heard was the roar of beasts and birdsong from time to time among the mountains and forests beyond the pass.

The Yellow Turban Army has not yet launched an attack, they are still preparing, and they are still accumulating strength.

The air was filled with an unpleasant smell of blood and rot, and Huangfusong looked around at the soldiers on and off the wall, his heart turned a thousand times.

In Zhiyuan Pass, all the soldiers of the Han army were looking at Huangfusong and their general.

"Moth thieves are swarming, and the world is in chaos. The Taiping Dao confuses the people with demonic words, confuses the good, gathers bandits and robbers, and brings chaos to China."
