The two armies instantly launched a fierce battle, not so much a fierce battle, but a massacre, Tai Shi Ci led a well-equipped cavalry, along the official road to rampage forward, Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji's coalition army could not resist at all, and became the soul of Tai Shi Ci and others under the butcher's knife.

At this time, Tai Shici showed an extremely brave side, his face was hideous, his body was covered with plasma, and under the illumination of the sunset, the whole person was like a god.

At the same time, Zhang Yan on the city of Hangu Pass kept commanding the archers to shoot, and the arrows rained down, cooperating with the attacks of Tai Shici and others, and dealt a fatal blow to the combined forces of Li Dao, Guo Yan, and Zhang Ji.

Soon, the combined forces of Li Dao, Guo Yan, and Zhang Ji could not withstand the fierce offensive of Tai Shici and others, and were instantly defeated.

"Hold on! Don't go back! Advance! Whoever rushes into the gate first will be rewarded in this house! Li Dao swung his sword and slashed a retreating soldier, letting out a hysterical cry.

However, these soldiers were frightened, and even if they were given more bounties, it would be in vain if they did not have their lives to spend. More and more soldiers dragged their tired bodies and abandoned their armor to flee from the front, the purpose of which was to save their lives.

Li Wei couldn't restrain the defeated soldiers, but was almost knocked off his horse by the soldiers who retreated from the front.

At this moment, Tai Shici took the lead, rode his horse and raised his gun, and killed Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji and others.

Seeing this, Zhang Ji immediately turned his horse's head and shouted at Li Dao and Guo Yan: "The soldiers are exhausted. No more fighting. The enemy is on the rise. It's better to retreat for a while and think of another way! ”

When Guo Yan saw Zhang Ji fleeing, he also panicked, turned his horse's head, and shouted at Li Wei: "Thirty-six plans to go are the best policy, leave Qingshan without worrying about no firewood, escape is important, I will go first!" ”

Li Wei saw Zhang Ji and Guo Yan leave one after another. The soldiers in front were about to collapse, and seeing that the general trend had gone, they also hurriedly retreated.

Tai Shi Ci led the cavalry to chase and kill for a while, those soldiers who did not have time to escape were checkmate to death, and they fell to death, and chased Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji and others for more than 30 miles, expelled them from the Xin'an County boundary, beheaded more than 3,000 levels, and died in the chaos. And so many more.

More than 30 miles of official roads are covered with blood. Corpses can be seen everywhere.

When night fell, dark clouds covered the moon, the earth was dark, Tai Shici and the others each had several heads tied to their waists, and they were arrogantly holding torches, returning along the same road, if they encountered the enemy, it would be another burst of killing.

When Tai Shi Ci returned to Hangu Pass, Zhang Yan was already waiting at the gate of the pass, and asked about the casualties.

So, Zhang Yan left Tai Shi Ci and a thousand cavalry to guard Guguan, and instructed Tai Shi Ci, Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji and others to attack again, they would be given a beating, and those who won the heads of the three would be rewarded with a thousand gold!

Subsequently, Zhang Yan quickly rushed back to Gucheng with Xu Chu and others.

Zhang Yan left Zhang Hong and a thousand cavalry to wait in Gucheng early in the morning, and Zhang Hong had already made arrangements, just waiting for Liu Xiehe and hundreds of civil and military officials to come.

The night is deep, but the city tower of the valley city is brightly lit, a big banner with Zhang characters is fluttering in the wind on the city tower, Zhang Hong is standing on the city tower with a nervous face, and he can't stop looking at Xiangxia.

Not long after, the sound of horses' hooves was heard in the distance, and Zhang Hong asked the soldiers to pull their bowstrings one after another, always on alert.

When he learned that Zhang Yan sent someone to escort Liu Xie and the civil and military officials to arrive, Zhang Hong immediately asked people to open the city gate, and he himself quickly went down the city tower and walked out of the city gate to greet Liu Xie, the current son of heaven.

Liu Xie and the civil and military officials were hungry and very difficult at this time, Zhang Hong hurriedly took Liu Xie and the civil and military officials into Gucheng, and vacated the residence of Haode arranged in advance for Liu Xie, while the civil and military officials were crowded into more than 20 guest rooms of the county government, and after eating and drinking, they all fell asleep.

Not long after Liu Xie and the others fell asleep, the soldiers came to report to Zhang Hong, saying that Zhang Yang, the general of Anguo, led more than 2,000 people including Yang Feng, Yang Ding, Hu Cai, Li Le, Han Xian, and Qubei to knock on the door outside the city.

Zhang Hong didn't say a word, and immediately came to the city tower, Xiangxia looked, but saw that Zhang Yang, Yang Feng, Yang Ding, Hu Cai, Li Le, Han Xian, Qubei and others were already tired, so he said loudly: "It's hard to distinguish in the night, who are you and others, I can't identify it for a while, it's better to wait for dawn and then make a decision." I have wronged the generals to spend a night outside the city! ”

"What do you mean by that? I've been escorting Bixia all the way here, why did you follow Bixia and turn us away? How can there be such a thing in the world? After hearing this, Yang Ding shouted unconvinced.

"Please forgive the generals, it's really hard to tell the night, it's hard to guarantee that the generals are not dressed up as subordinates of Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji and other thieves, and I am also thinking about Bixia's safety. If the generals want to stay outside the city, I will ask them to bring food, and if the generals want to make things difficult, we can only see the real chapter with swords and guns. Zhang Honglang said.

Zhang Yang frowned, and said to Yang Feng, Yang Ding, Hu Cai, Li Le, Han Xian, Qubei and others: "What he said is also very reasonable, and this is also for the sake of Bixia's safety, even if it is me, I will do it like him." We are the heroes who protect Bixia, not Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji and the like, tonight the right to sleep outside the city for a night, and wait for tomorrow daytime, whether it is loyalty or treachery, Bixia has its own public opinion! ”

Yang Feng, Yang Ding, Hu Cai, Li Le, Han Xian, Qubei and others also agreed after hearing Zhang Yang's words, they were already tired enough, since they were not allowed to enter the city, then they didn't enter, as long as they could give food and drink.

So, Zhang Yang shouted to Zhang Hong in the city: "I will be stationed outside the city tonight, and I will stay outside the city for one night, but I haven't eaten for a long time, and I ask this lord not to break his promise and bring us food." ”

"It's natural, you wait here for a while, and someone will bring the food in a moment." Zhang Hongdao.

After a while, Zhang Hong asked people to drop the food and water that had been prepared into the city with ropes, so that Zhang Yang and the others could come to collect them.

Zhang Yang, Yang Feng, Yang Ding, Hu Cai, Li Le, Han Xian, Qubei and others sent troops to collect food, and then sat on the ground not far from the city wall and began to eat and drink heavily.

When they had eaten and drunk, they fell to the ground and fell asleep.

Half an hour later, Zhang Yan led Xu Chu and thousands of cavalry from Hangu Pass to Gucheng, they did not go straight along the official road, but carefully went around to the east gate, called open the city gate from the east gate, and entered the city silently under Zhang Hong's answer.

As soon as he entered Gucheng, Zhang Yan said to Zhang Hong, who came to greet him: "Can everything be arranged?" ”

Zhang Hong replied: "Lord Qiqi, everything has been arranged, tomorrow morning, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun's soldiers and horses will arrive here, and at noon, Yu Ban will lead the generals to come." Moreover, Zhang Yang, Yang Feng, Yang Ding, Hu Cai, Li Le, Han Xian, Qubei and others have also been blocked outside the city by their subordinates, and the soldiers who entered the city were only 500 people led by Dong Cheng. ”

"Good!" Zhang Yan nodded with satisfaction, led Xu Chu and the others, and went into the city to rest.

The next day, more than 2,000 people, including Zhang Yang, Yang Feng, Yang Ding, Hu Cai, Li Le, Han Xian, and Qubei, were still asleep outside the city, when they suddenly heard a rush of footsteps, and everyone woke up from their dreams, thinking that the army of Li Dao, Guo Yan, and Zhang Ji had killed them. Who knows, as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw two armies under the leadership of two generals, slowly heading towards Gucheng.

Zhang Yang rubbed his hazy sleepy eyes, and looked at it impressively, but saw that the two men in helmets and armor at the head were so familiar, and when they gradually got closer, they saw clearly that these two people were none other than Gao Shun and Zhang Liao under Lu Bu's tent.

"I heard that after Feng Xianxian's brother died in battle, his old subordinates all surrendered to Zhang Yan, and today I saw Gao Shun and Zhang Liao here, and it seems that the rumors are true." Zhang Yang thought to himself.

When it comes to friendship, Zhang Yang and Lu Bu can be regarded as brothers in life and death.

When Zhang Yang heard the news of Lu Bu's death, he was sad for several days, which shows that the two usually have a deep friendship.

Zhang Yang is no stranger to Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, and now he has an indescribable feeling when he sees them coming with thousands of troops and horses.

Things are people, I don't know if Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, who are already generals under Zhang Yan's account, will recognize him again?

When Zhang Yang hesitated, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao rode their horses side by side in front of him, turned over and dismounted, and the two of them hugged their fists in unison and said, "Is the general okay?" ”

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "I'm fine, I really didn't expect that you would dare to come and recognize me!" ”

"The general and Feng Xiangong are confidants, and we are Feng Xiangong's confidants before his death, how can we forget the general?" Gao Shundao.

"Alas! When I heard the news of Feng Xian's death, I still couldn't believe it, and I sent someone to Yanzhou to investigate, and it was true. I really didn't expect that the last time I said goodbye to Feng Xian in the wild king, I didn't expect it to be an eternal goodbye! When Zhang Yang mentioned Lu Bu, he was still a little sad in his heart, and his eyes revealed a little gloom, "I also sent someone to inquire about your whereabouts at that time, and after learning that you have been submitted to Zhang Yan, I no longer have any worries." Now that you have a home, I am relieved. ”

"Thank you general, I can't thank you enough." Gao Shun and Zhang Liao bowed in unison.

At this moment, the gate of Gucheng City suddenly opened, and Zhang Yan led Zhang Hong and Xu Chu to slowly walk out of the city gate. Zhang Yan saw that Gao Shun and Zhang Liao had arrived with the army, so he was relieved, so he gave his hand to Zhang Yang, Yang Feng, Yang Ding, Hu Cai, Li Le, Han Xian, Qubei and others: "I really wronged the generals last night, and the generals who were harmed slept outside the city for one night, Zhang apologized. Now that Bixia has woken up, and the civil and military officials are also waiting in the city, I have asked people to arrange everything, please enter the city with me, meet Bixia, and share breakfast!
