Chapter 196: Siege Battle

"Guan Yu, Cheng Pu, and Han Dang will go to Ximen with me to set up defenses! Guo Jia mobilized the whole city and arranged all the affairs in the city! Chu He immediately announced the order, and galloped away in the direction of the West Gate. net

Not long after, Chu He came to the gate of the West Gate, looking at the team that was moving slowly under the black pressure in the distance, his heart seemed to be hit hard by a hammer, and a faint pain was born.

The feeling of depression was transmitted from his body, and he glanced at the people on the left and right, but found that all the soldiers were all pale, and it was obvious that everyone was greatly shocked by the method of driving the people to attack the city.

"You are all the elite of my Han Dynasty, if this city is in the hands of you, it will save thousands of people in the world, if this city is lost, then there will be several times as many people in the world as today, falling into a hundred years of war, and the casualties will not only be seen today, but your family may also be affected by the war, so you are not fighting for me, but also fighting for my family, fighting for peace, and fighting for the glory of the Han!" Chu He stood at the head of the city, jumped up suddenly, stood boldly on the battlements of the city wall, looked around at the nervous soldiers in front of him, and shouted loudly.

After hearing this, the soldiers couldn't help but be shocked, and they all clasped their hands and said: "We will not retreat!" ”

"The whole army is armed!" Chu He shouted loudly, and all the soldiers began to act in an instant.

Yishui Pass is surrounded by mountains on both sides, guarding the surrounding traffic arteries, it is Qinghai, Hebei, Yanzhou three states into the Tiger Prison, the nearest place in Luoyang, if you want to avoid the Yishui, you have to enter the Yellow River to travel water and land, or it is a detour of nearly 100 miles, in order to cross the Yishui to reach the Tiger Prison, or go straight into Luoshui into Luoyang.

Needless to say, after taking it, it can be regarded as a major gate to open the triple gateway into Luoyang, and as long as Chu He guards it, he will have a convenient transportation station that Dong Zhuo has consumed for a long time.

The city was not inhabited by the people, but it was a military city, which could accommodate 50,000 troops, and because it only needed to hold on to the east and west, it was also an easy city to defend.

With the joint efforts of all the soldiers, the city defense equipment was constantly arranged on the city wall, and about ten miles below the city in front, the people who were driven away finally stopped, and under the leather whip of a group of cavalry, they were sorting out the formation.

"My lord, a letter from Yuan Shao, the leader of the coalition alliance!" At this time, Guan Yu took the letter from the hands of the herald, and turned it to Chu He.

Chu He's heart was stunned, he hurriedly took the letter, opened it, and couldn't help frowning slightly, the letter was a letter to reward Chu He and Sun Jian's two armies, which praised and rewarded the generals of the two armies, and asked the two armies to stick to Yishui for more than a month, and the coalition army would come from coming, and enter the tiger prison together at the right time, and take Luoyang Yunyun directly.

After folding the letter, Chu He gave the letter to the soldier beside him and said softly: "You and give this letter to General Sun Jian!" ”

"No!"

The soldier took the order with his hands folded and hurried out with the letter.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sound of drums that shook the heavens and the earth sounded, like spring thunder rising and the dragon ascending to heaven.

Accompanying the procession was a line of motley-clad people from the surrounding area, each with a rope tied to their left hand.

The first column held a huge wooden plank in hand, followed by the people holding the ladder and pushing the cart.

In the midst of the people, there were groups of soldiers who were scolding left and right, so that the ranks of the people could remain undisturbed.

On the Zuihou side, there are groups of infantry wearing iron armor and armed with guns and knives, and the neat ranks and the ranks of the people in front form two different landscapes.

Every time the drum sounded, the team took a step forward, and when a road was about a mile away from Yishui Pass, the army stopped.

Suddenly, a crack opened in the ranks of the common people, and more than a dozen war horses flew out from behind, and the general on the war horse was full of anger, followed by a soldier holding a flag, and the flag had a big character written on it.

"Chu River, you and other rebels are surrounded by our army, I advise you to open the door and surrender as soon as possible, otherwise our army will press on the city and slaughter the army in the city!" Zhang Xiu stood on his horse, holding an iron gun in his hand, looked at the huge city wall in front of him, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly.

Chu He listened to the familiar voice, but his heart was full of mixed feelings, the previous two times Chu He bypassed Zhang Xiu's life, he thought that Zhang Xiu could reform himself, but he still wanted to be his enemy, this time he actually did such a thing that lost his conscience and committed an unforgivable crime, but Chu He had the intention of killing him in his heart.

"Zhang Xiu, I saw that you were a hero and had the heart to save you, but I didn't expect you to be my enemy again and again, this attack and defense is my affair with Dong thief, what do you do with these people, you quickly let these people go, when he invades Luoyang, I can spare your dog's life!" Chu He stood at the head of the city and raised his head and said.

Zhang Xiu listened to hahadaxiao, looked left and right at the many ordinary people who were trembling and trembling around him, and he couldn't help but say coldly: "Put away your hypocrisy!" If you are true for these people, open the gates of the city and surrender on your knees. As long as you surrender, I guarantee that these untouchables will leave intact! ”

"Humph! Zhang Xiu, since this is the case, you will fight! This time, we waited for the righteous army to come, it was to help the Han family, eradicate the Dong thief, Yishui Pass is a strategic place, if it is discarded, it will inevitably lose more people and horses, I will give up this small righteousness for the sake of righteousness today! The fathers and elders under the city, I, Chu He, can only fold you and others to save the people in the world, and I believe that you will judge which is more important! Chu He said loudly.

The people under the city turned pale when they heard it, but no one dared to say a word, Zhang Xiu's face changed slightly, knowing that Chu He was determined to defend the city, he slowly pulled out the sword at his waist, held it high, and suddenly pointed to the Yishui Pass city wall in front of him, and shouted: "Attack!" ”

"Attack!"

"Attack!"

"Attack!"

The soldiers and horses of the herald continued to sound on the battlefield, and a low drum sounded again, and the people who had been tied here began to move slowly, and some of them even cried as they walked.

For a while, there was a cry from the entire battlefield, and grief and grief spread throughout the battlefield.

"Zhang Xiu villain, if you are a hero, let these people go!" Cheng Pu in the city was stunned, and couldn't help shouting.

However, his voice was soon muffled by the cacophony of voices, and the army slowly moved up, and the people walked slowly, but in the blink of an eye, they were within range of the archers of the defenders.

Because Yishui Pass has a moat in the east and no channel in the west to protect it, it is very easy for enemy troops here to reach the city.

"Crossbowmen prepare! Five hundred steps ahead, shoot flat! Smell the drum and shoot! Chu He looked at the formation below that was getting closer and closer, and shouted loudly.
