Chapter 917 Break through Hulao Pass
Chapter 915: Break through the Hulao Pass
I have to say that Liu Yu’s prestige in Youzhou is really high, and even Gongsun Zan’s subordinates love this state governor.
No wonder Gongsun Zan was so afraid of Liu Yu. In the original history, Liu Yu was defeated and captured, it actually did not pose any threat, but Gongsun Zan still killed Liu Yu.
And this also caused a series of troubles, and even the Wuhuan people wanted to attack Gongsun Zan for Liu Yu.
From this we can also see that Gongsun Zan''s decision to kill Liu Yu was also extremely correct.
Even Qin Hao may still kill Liu Yu. After all, Liu Yu''s prestige is too great. It''s only one day that threatens to stay for one day, so it''s simple and clear to kill him directly.
Liu Yu died in Houyi in this life, which no one expected, but Houyi who shot Liu Yu was considered a devilish devil for thousands of years, which is almost certain.
Liu Yu''s death completely angered all the princes of Youzhou... soldiers under his command.
The Lord Liu they respected and loved was shamelessly "assassinated" by Liang Jun. This was like a bolt from the blue in the eyes of Youzhou Jun.
Some of Youzhou soldiers even looked like their dead fathers, crying and charging wildly, wishing they could die with the Liang army.
As the saying goes, a sad soldier will win.
At this time, the Youzhou army had a combat power of 50% higher than usual. With such a group of mourning soldiers to attack Hulao Pass, the impact on Hulao Pass is undoubtedly huge.
On the Hulao Pass City Tower, Li Shimin looked at the coalition forces'' increasingly crazy offensive, and his face was extremely difficult to see.
I have to say that Qin Hao chose a good time and simply did not give Liang Jun a chance to breathe.
The Liang army had just lost 30,000 troops. At this time, there were only 40,000 defenders left in Hulao Pass, but because of the loss, the morale was overwhelming. Generals such as Li Yuanba, Houyi, and Jia Fu were all injured.
Therefore, at this time, Hulao Pass can be said to be the lowest defense since the war started.
Listening quietly to the fighting, screams and thundering sounds around, Li Shimin''s heart was cold because Qin Hao did not leave him a way out!
Looking at Qin Hao who was beating the drum in the distance again, Li Shimin subconsciously clenched his fists, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.
"Qin Hao, as long as I, Li Shimin, are still alive, you don''t want to break through the Hulao Pass."
Li Shimin said softly, and then as the main general, he drew out the Longyuan Sword and joined the city guard team himself.
Click…
Li Shimin slashed out with a sword, and cut a flying stone thrown into two pieces. Then he ignored the huge rock flying over his head and shouted:
"The soldiers of the Liang army are me, Li Shimin, who is incompetent. They have been defeated repeatedly in the confrontation with Qin Hao, which has implicated you, but this is just that I, Li Shimin, is not as good as Qin Hao, and it is definitely not that I, Liang army is not as good as the coalition forces..."
Some generals were incredible when they heard Li Shimin say this.
Their general Li Shimin was a humble person on the outside but extremely proud inside. But now he took the initiative to admit defeat to Qin Hao, which was no less than giving him a sword directly!
"Soldiers, I, Li Shimin, have always believed that the Liang army is the strongest army in the world. Even if I die today, I, Li Shimin, will still swear to protect the honor of the Liang army to the death. If the coalition forces want to break through Hulao Pass, then step on my body first."
[Dingdong, Li Shimin''s skill "Zhenguan" Effect 3 is launched. When commanding the army to fight, the comprehensive quality of the entire army has been greatly improved. The greater the difference in the force between the enemy and us, the stronger the combat power of the army will explode. (Note: This effect is best combined with the Xuanjia Army, the exclusive unit of Li Shimin, and the bonus obtained by the Xuanjia Army will be twice that of other teams.)]??????Li Shimin’s sonorous and resolute words moved all Liang troops. Then they tried their best to shout: “Don’t stop until death, and stop until death…”
For a moment, the entire Hulao was closed, and the sad shouts of Liang''s army were heard.
Seeing this, Li Shimin''s eyes were slightly wet and roared to the sky: "I will not stop until death."
[Dingdong, Li Shimin''s skill "Zhenguan" effect 4 is activated. When joining the battle personally, the generals of the entire army will have a force of +1 and reduce some of the enemy''s morale. Wu Yunzhao''s force +1...Zuo Tiancheng''s force +1...]
Qin Hao, who was beating the drum down the city tower, suddenly his pupils shrank after receiving the prompt. When he heard the lone wolf roar, he immediately stopped and looked at Hulao.
"What a powerful method. Is this a must-have against a soldier?"
Qin Hao''s eyes were full of murderous intent and he whispered to himself: "Li Shimin, Li Shimin, if you can do anything like this, then see whose fist is harder."
Li Shimin''s "Zhenguan" launched two consecutive effects, and he almost reversed the sluggish water vapor of the Liang army with his own strength, but that was only improved to a certain extent, and it could not reach the peak of the Liang army.
But it is this improvement that is as precious as timely rain for the Liang army as a whole, making the soldiers no longer afraid of the coalition forces.
On the first day, Gongsun Zan personally directed the siege. Although he attacked the city tower five times, he was pushed down by Li Shimin himself every time.
Even at night, the coalition forces still did not stop siegeing the city, which shows Qin Hao''s determination to break through the Huzhu this time.
The next day, Gongsun Zan handed over the command to Gongsun Xuanyuan, and under Gongsun Xuanyuan''s command, he attacked the city tower 12 times that day.
The first three days of fierce attacks were all under the responsibility of Gongsun Zan''s army, and the three days of super-high-intensity siege made Gongsun Zan pay more than 10,000 yuan, and Gongsun Zan could also be regarded as paying the price for his previous behavior.
After Gongsun Zan, Liu Yu''s army in Youzhou, who was responsible for siegeing the city, no, it should be called Liu Che''s army now!
Liu Yu''s death made all Liu Yu''s army indignant, and even Liu Che did not dare to preserve his strength at this time.
Therefore, Liu Che''s army fought more fiercely than Gongsun Army. After three days of fierce attack, more than 15,000 people died in battle.
At this point, the Youzhou Army was greatly damaged.
After Liu Che, it was naturally the other princes'' turn, and then they took turns to attack with one day.
Half a month later, when it was time to attack the Qin army, Qin Hao concentrated all the elite soldiers and generals under his command, and even sent out the Jiulong Guard and the Shan camp, finally defeating the Liang army and attacking the Hulao Pass.
Although the Qin army attacked the pass, Li Shimin''s troops were still abundant, and he not only swears to never return to the street fighting with the coalition forces.
The two armies conducted another four-day street battle, and Li Shimin was seriously injured and unconscious on the first day of street battle, and was escorted back to Luoyang with other seriously injured generals.
After the Liang army lost the chief general, they held on for three days. In the end, Wu Yun summoned more than 10,000 remaining troops, withdrew from the Huzhu and retreated to Luoyang to continue defending the dead.
At this point, the third battle at Hulao Pass has come to an end.
