Chapter 461 Bai Qi’s first battle


    Chapter 460: Bai Qi’s first battle


    "Zhang Liang, you are right. I am a sinner for the ages."


    Xiang Yu said with regret, then suddenly stood up and walked out the door.


    "Boy, what are you doing?" Nanhua asked.


    Xiang Yu turned around and bowed: "Senior thank you for helping me solve my doubts. The two gates in the southeast of Sizhou were lost because of me. Now I want to atone for my sins."


    Seeing this, Guiguzi said lightly: "Boy, the failure of the Yellow Turban is a certainty, and it cannot be resolved by human forces. Besides, given your current situation, if you continue to show off, you will die if you don''t enter Luoyang."


    Xiang Yu was silent when he heard this. Guiguzi continued to say, "Take this injury first, the Yellow Turban will be defeated, but it will not die. You will have the opportunity to atone for your sins."


    The struggle in Xiang Yu''s eyes flashed, and then he asked, "Senior, are you saving me, but are you delaying it?"


    Guiguzi glanced at Xiang Yu, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "You will know it then."


    ———


    Ogu Pass, as a bridge between Sizhou and Yanzhou, plays a decisive role in this battle.


    Before the Han River Battle began, Zhang Liao led an army of 50,000 to detour on the Hulao Pass and raided Dagu Pass from behind.


    Ogu Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and there are 10,000 defenders in the pass, so Zhang Liao must catch the enemy off guard before he can win the pass in one fell swoop.


    Zhang Liao originally thought that he could win the Dagu Pass in one fell swoop, but who would have thought that he would meet his opponent this time?


    After a short period of chaos, the guards of Otani Pass quickly commanded the entire army to stabilize and stabilize, and then persisted until dawn.


    The sneak attack failed, and Zhang Liao had no choice but to launch a strong attack. His troops were five times that of the defenders, and there were many generals following the army, so the strong attack was not impossible to defeat.


    Unexpectedly, the defending generals at Oguchi Pass were quite good at defending the city. Zhang Liao personally commanded the attack for two days, and even the generals such as Ran Min, Xu Huang and Yu Jin participated in the attack, but they were still blocked by the defending generals.


    Looking at the Yellow Turban Guard on the city tower, Zhang Liao''s eyes were full of fear, and then said to his left and right: "Send the order down and call the gold to withdraw the troops."


    A sneak attack lasted for two days, and the Han army had lost 8,000 troops, but Dagu Pass was still as stable as a rock.


    If the Yellow Turban reinforcements have not yet won the Dagu Pass before the arrival of the Yellow Turban reinforcements, the loss of troops will be the second best, which will affect the situation of trapping the dragon. Then Zhang Liao will not be able to redeem his sins even if he dies thousands of times.


    Ran Min''s body was covered in blood. After strode into the tent, he apologized with shame: "I am ashamed, but I still couldn''t capture Dagu Pass."


    Zhang Liao hurriedly walked off the main position, helped Ran Min up, and said seriously: "Not the general, the Yellow Turbans in this pass are indeed too tenacious."


    "But if this continues, how can we explain to the master?" Ran Min asked anxiously.


    With Ran Min''s force, there was no opponent in the Yellow Turban except Xiang Yu. Qin Hao also made sure to capture Dagu Pass, so he transferred Ran Min to Zhang Liao''s subordinates, but who would have thought that an accident happened.


    The Yellow Turban of Oguchi Pass has a very tenacious will to defend the city, and the guards of Oguchi Pass obviously also know Ran Min''s power. Every time Ran Min enters the city, he will be subjected to the sea of ??people and arrow rain tactics.


    In order to suppress Ran Min and other generals, the Yellow Turban even shot his own people, which barely offset the gap in generals.


    After hearing what Ran Min said, Zhang Liao also looked worried. He really met his opponent this time, but it does not mean that Zhang Liao would give up.


    "Let''s wait for the troops in Hulao Pass to arrive and continue to attack. By the way, have you figured out who the enemy defender is?"


    Of the 80,000 troops hidden in Xuanyuan Pass, Qin Qiong only took away 20,000, while Zhang Liao had a total of 50,000.


    Qin Hao made such arrangements because Zhang Liao not only wanted to attack Dagu Pass, but also had to resist the double-sided counterattack from Sizhou and Yanzhou after the capture. If the troops were insufficient, they would definitely not be able to defend.


    Qin Hao never expected that Zhang Liao''s 50,000 elite army and generals such as Ran Min did not capture the Dagu Pass, which had only 10,000 defenders, with the assistance of the sneak attack.


    The first step has not been carried out, so how can the subsequent plan be carried out? Of course, this does not mean that Zhang Liao’s ability is not good, but that the Yellow Turban Guard at Oguchi Pass is indeed quite powerful.


    "You have already figured out that the general is named Zhu Wenzheng, who is the general under Zhu Yuanzhang, the new commander of the Yellow Turban Que."


    "Zhu Wenzheng?" Zhang Liao frowned slightly and said to himself, "I, Zhang Liao, would have suffered a great loss in an unknown man."


    Zhang Liao had no impression of Zhu Wenzheng, but if Qin Hao was there, he would definitely exclaim: Why is this guy here?


    Zhu Wenzheng was a famous defender in the early Ming Dynasty. In the "Hongdu Defense Battle", Zhu Wenzheng was in the lonely city and resisted the attack of Chen Youliang''s 600,000 troops, which is a miracle in military history.


    Even a 600,000 army could not capture Hongdu, which Zhu Wenzheng defended, and now he is guarding the Dagu Pass, which is easier to defend and difficult to attack. Zhang Liao wanted to conquer it with a 50,000 army, and the difficulty can be imagined.


    Zhu Yuanzhang was obviously still in Hangu Pass, but Zhu Wenzheng was in Dagu Pass. This east and west were the biggest variable in the situation of trapping dragons.


    "Report to the general, Deputy General Bai is back."


    Zhang Liao was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Hurry, let him in."


    Deputy General Bai is the slaughter of Bai Qi. The magic that the system implanted for him was that after Qin Qiong left the Pojun Camp, he became Zhang Liaoxin''s deputy general and lieutenant.


    Zhang Liao also knew that Bai Qi was from the Qin family, and both the lord and the young master valued it very much. He came to the military camp just to gilt, so naturally he would not treat Bai Qi as an ordinary general.


    Bai Qi also quickly conquered Zhang Liao with his own abilities, so Zhang Liao was so happy when he heard that he was white.


    Bai Qi is a strong-faced and burly Kansea man. After seeing Bai Qi earning the money, Zhang Liao immediately smiled and asked, "Brother Bai, you are here. How is the defense line arranged on Hulao Pass?"


    After hearing Zhang Liao''s name, a trace of helplessness flashed in Bai Qi''s eyes.


    Zhang Liao called Brother Bai Qi to admire his ability, but Bai Qi dared not call him directly.


    "I reported to the general that the last general used the Hulao Pass site to arrange three lines of defense, leaving behind another 10,000 troops. I think it would be no problem to defend it for three months." Bai Qi said respectfully.


    The rank in the army is quite strict. Before his position is higher than that of Zhang Liao, Bai Qi dared not break it without authorization.


    Only then did Zhang Liao understand the intention of burning Hulao Pass. If he didn''t burn when he abandoned the pass, wouldn''t he be attacking Hulao Pass now?


    The danger level of Hulao Pass is still above Dagu Pass. Zhang Liao didn''t even capture Dagu Pass, let alone the more difficult Hulao.


    Zhang Liao’s mission is to block the food route in Sizhou, and it is impossible to use all his troops on strong attacks, because the casualties are too great and they cannot resist the Yellow Turban counterattack.


    Zhang Liao wanted to control the casualties within 10,000, so that a 40,000 army would be able to resist the attacks on both sides of Sizhou and Yanzhou.


    But now 8,000 soldiers have been lost, and it is still a long way to take over Ogu Pass. Next is obviously a hard battle.


    After repeated discussions, Zhang Liao and other generals did not expect any other way than a strong attack. Seeing this, Bai Qi took the initiative to stand up and said, "General, give the last general a 20,000 army, and he will capture Dagu Pass within one day."


    "Oh?" A trace of doubt flashed in Zhang Liao''s eyes. He didn''t understand where Bai Qi''s confidence came from, so he asked, "Brother, do you have any good ideas?"


    Bai Qi smiled but did not answer, and then said confidently: "The last general will make the military order."


    "Okay, I will give you a 20,000 army."


    Half a day later, Ogu Pass was captured by Bai Qi, and Zhu Wenzheng led hundreds of remnants to escape to Luoyang, and Bai Qi''s reputation began to emerge.


    ?The first update will be announced, and the second update will be issued tonight.
