    After the king's order was passed down, not long after, Huang Zhong, Jiang Qin, Huang Gai and other generals gathered their troops and horses, ready to order at any time.

    Yan Liang sent several teams of scouts one after another to investigate the situation at Hulao Pass.

    Soon, the scouts reported back one after another, saying that the gate of Hulao Pass had been burned down, and the fire had spread to the towers on the pass. Along the city line, the defenders were killing each other, which was quite tragic.

    "Your Majesty, could this be Cao Xiu's plan to lure the enemy?" Zhou Cang raised his hands and asked in confusion.

    Yan Liang snorted coldly: "Even if Cao Xiu tries to lure the enemy, he will never dare to burn the city gate. My king's psychological offensive has been effective, and the Yan army is in civil strife, so there is no doubt."

    After saying that, Yan Liang glanced at the generals and shouted loudly: "Pass on my king's order, all the troops will go out, let me capture Hulao Pass in one fell swoop¡ª¡ª"

    After the king's order was passed, scouts flew out to convey Yan Liang's order to the generals who were waiting for the order.

    At the same time, in the camp, the attack bugle sounded, the camp door opened wide, and Hu Cheer personally led the Chinese army on foot and cavalry, roaring out.

    Immediately afterwards, all the camps on the left and right were opened wide. Huang Zhong and other generals each led their own troops and horses. Thousands of Chu soldiers surged towards the chaotic Hulao Pass.

    Huang Zhong took the lead and led the trapped camp composed of Changsha soldiers to rush towards Hulao Pass like a tide.

    At this moment, Guancheng is in chaos. The Yan army, who can't tell whether they are enemies or friends, are killing each other. The gate of Guancheng has been burned to ashes, and the suspension bridge has been chopped down.

    Through the wide open city cave, Huang Zhong could vaguely see that the interior of Guancheng was also in flames, and figures were flying around like shuttles.

    Huang Zhong did not hesitate, crossed the suspension bridge with his horse and sword, and led his Changsha Tigers into the Hulao Pass without hesitation.

    "The army of the King of Chu has arrived. Come and greet them."

    In the chaos, some Yan troops were overjoyed when they saw the Chu troops breaking in, and they gathered around to greet them.

    These Yanjun troops have not passed through Feng before, so how can Huang Zhong know whether they are enemies or friends.

    "General, these Yan troops are all the same, what should we do?" The soldiers on the left and right also shouted suspiciously.

    Huang Zhong frowned, hesitated slightly, and then shouted: "It is important to break the barrier. If you can't tell them apart, there is no need to separate them. Kill them all together."

    Amidst the loud shouts, Huang Zhong took the lead and swept out the long sword in his hand, slashing away the two Yan soldiers who were coming towards him.

    The officers and soldiers trapped in the camp on the left and right were as bloodthirsty as demons. They were wildly wielding swords and guns and attacking the enemy group. No matter which one was the surrenderer or which one was the stubborn resister, any Yan army who stood in their way would be brutally killed.

    Huang Zhong's troops easily captured the city gate line. Immediately afterwards, Jiang Qin, Huang Gai and other follow-up troops poured into Hulao Pass in thousands. In less than half an hour, there were 30,000 to 40,000 soldiers.  Chu troops poured into Guancheng.

    Outside the city, more Chu troops were still pouring towards Hulao Pass.

    At this moment, the Yan army in Guancheng was stunned by the Chu army's killing spree. Those who were originally rebels had to give up their rebellion at this time and joined forces with the stubborn Yan army to resist the Chu army's killing.  .

    Even so, the Guancheng has been broken, and how can the Yan army with less than 20,000 men withstand the Chu army's surging offensive.

    Blood flowed into rivers, corpses lay everywhere, and the entire Hulao Pass had turned into a Shura killing ground.

    On the main road of Guancheng, Cao Xiu was leading three thousand pro-army troops, fighting to the death, trying to quell the rebel attack.

    Cao Xiu originally thought that the soldiers who were confused by Yan Liang would only flee across the city at most, but he did not expect that his men would openly launch a rebellion and intend to dedicate the entire Guancheng to Yan Liang.

    This sudden rebellion completely disrupted Cao Xiu's position. When he led his troops to fight against the rebellion, the Chu army had already taken the opportunity to break through.

    The rebellious Yan army was mercilessly killed by the Chu army. The veteran Huang Zhong was invincible all the way. He broke through Xiguan City and marched towards Dongguan City along the road.

    Hulao Pass stands between mountains, with two gates in the east and west. As long as Huang Zhong captures the east gate, the entire Hulao Pass will change hands.

    The grief-stricken Cao Xiu saw that the Chu army was unstoppable, but he still shouted at his frightened soldiers and resisted desperately.

    "Yan Thief, I, Cao Xiu, will never let you get to Hulao Pass. I will never -" In the chaos of the battle, Cao Xiu gritted his teeth and was as determined as iron.

    When he was fighting to the death, Cao Xiu glanced sideways and suddenly saw a veteran, wielding a long sword and no one could stop him, and he was heading towards him like lightning.

    Who else could have such a powerful veteran general in the Chu army except Huang Zhong, one of the Five Tiger Generals?

    Cao Xiu¡¯s fighting spirit was halfway stopped in the blink of an eye due to Huang Zhong¡¯s attack.??

    At this time, Huang Zhong was no longer the same as when he first came out of Jingzhou. After many years of war, Huang Zhong's illustrious military exploits had already become famous all over the world, and all the generals in Cao's camp were in awe.

    Cao Xiu knew very well how many jins and taels he had, so how could he not be afraid when he saw Huang Zhong coming to kill him.

    However, the situation is overwhelming. If Cao Xiu does not dare to fight and retreats, his entire defense line will collapse.

    In desperation, Cao Xiu had no choice but to grit his teeth and fight with his spear.

    Amidst the ear-splitting roar, Huang Zhong flew up on horseback. With the long knife in his hand, he swept it out with the power of thunder.

    Cao Xiu also cheered up and stepped forward with the silver spear in his hand.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    With the collision of lightning and flint, huge force poured down, and the silver gun in Cao Xiu's hand was turned upside down and almost flew away.

    In terms of pure martial arts, Cao Xiu's strength is only third-rate in the world, so how can he withstand the attack of Huang Zhong, who is extremely skilled in martial arts.

    Under this blow, Cao Xiu could not hold the silver spear in his hand, and his blood was boiling, his mouth was numb, and a mouthful of bad blood was almost spurting out of his mouth.

    ¡°I¡¯ve heard for a long time that this old guy¡¯s martial arts skills are not inferior to Yan Liang¡¯s, but I didn¡¯t expect that¡ª¡ª¡±

    While Cao Xiu was still in shock, Huang Zhong took advantage of his instability and struck out with the second knife, trailing a long trail of blood.

    As fast as lightning and as heavy as Mount Tai.

    Cao Xiu, who had lost his position and was in a state of shock, had no time to put back his gun to block him. The blood-stained blade had already swept across.

    Poof!

    With a muffled sound, Cao Xiu's bloody body flew away from his neck and landed on the blood-stained mud.

    Huang Zhong beheaded Cao Xiu with a single sword formation. The force was unbearable. The fighting spirit of those Yan troops who were still resisting collapsed in an instant, and they turned around and fled.

    ¡°Kill, kill all the enemy bandits¡ª¡ª¡± Huang Zhong raised his sword and shouted loudly.

    The officers and soldiers of the Chu army on the left and right were like wolves and tigers rushing into the flock of sheep. They were ruthless and ruthless, killing the defeated enemy soldiers wantonly.

    When the moon passed high in the sky, the flag of Chu was already planted on the east city of Hulao Pass. At the same time, the battle flag of Chu was already flying high on the west city.

    Yan Liang stood on horseback at the top of the city, overlooking the flames of Hulao Pass, listening to the screams of the enemy, and admiring the joyful scene of the Chu soldiers surrounding and killing the enemy thieves.

    The east is turning white, the sky is getting brighter, and the shouts of killing in Guanzhong have finally faded away.

    Looking at Hulao Pass, the entire city has almost been burned into ruins, with ruins and broken walls everywhere. There is a pungent scorch smell in the air, the smell of burning corpses.

    The sound of horse hooves sounded, and Huang Zhong, covered in blood, rushed up to the city with Cao Xiu's head in his hand.

    "Your Majesty, here is the head of Cao Xiu's son." Huang Zhong excitedly presented the head.

    "Han Sheng did a great job. You deserve to be the first to break Hulao Pass this time." Yan Liang praised this brave veteran.

    Immediately, Yan Liang ordered that Cao Xiu's head be hung on top of Luoyang City for public display.

    At the beginning of the battle in Luoyang, all Cao troops surrendered. Only Cao Xiu, ignorant of current affairs, led his troops to surrender to Liu Bei and continued to compete with Yan Liang.

    Yan Liang took Cao Xiu's head to Luoyang to show to the public, just to scare those with evil intentions and tell them, be my Yan Liang's subjects honestly, and whoever wants to resist the power of God, Cao Xiu will be your fate.

    Yanjin City.

    At the beach, Zhang Fei was looking at the Yellow River from a distance, gritting his teeth secretly.

    On the Yellow River, the dozen or so warships of the Chu army were dangling leisurely in front of his eyes, showing off their force unscrupulously.

    Zhang Fei could only stand on the shore and get angry. He couldn't do anything to the Chu army. There was no way. Who let them have no navy.

    "How is the war at Hulao Pass going?" Zhang Fei asked.

    "Returning to the general, Yan Liang used trebuchets to attack Hulao Pass for many days, but failed to shake the pass. In recent days, the Chu army has calmed down and did not dare to attack the pass by force again."

    Zhang Fei nodded slightly, his expression of hatred softened a bit.

    "Back then, when the eighteen princes challenged Dong, they failed to break through the Hulao Pass. Yan Liang's attempt to break through the pass was simply wishful thinking. After I figure out a plan to resolve the flanking threat, I will call him Yan Thief"

    When Zhang Fei was feeling generous, a scout on horseback rushed over and shouted: "General, something bad has happened. Hulao Pass has been breached by the Chu army, Cao Xiu has been killed, and the entire 20,000 defenders have been wiped out!"

    Zhang Fei was shocked, his face was full of ferocity, and he was shattered by this shocking news in a blink of an eye.

    "Eighteen princes were unable to conquer it"Hulao Pass was actually captured by Yan Liang in less than half a month!

    Zhang Fei, who was shocked and pale, only came to his senses after a while and shouted urgently: "Quick, send a boat across the river quickly and inform the king."

    Jiangbei, Hanoi County, Pinggao City.

    In the lobby of the military mansion, Liu Bei frowned and discussed with the civil and military officials how to cross the river.

    At this moment, Chen Daoxi hurried in and said with cupped hands: "Your Majesty, good news has come from Yecheng. Mrs. Liu has given birth to a little prince for Your Majesty. Congratulations to Your Majesty."

    Hearing the news, Liu Bei was immediately overjoyed, and his frown relaxed into a smile.

    The civil and military officials in the hall also congratulated Liu Bei one after another. The heavy atmosphere in the hall became a lot lighter because of the good news.

    "Congratulations, Your Majesty, on your birth of a prince. Such good omens indicate that our army will surely win this battle." Zhuge Liang also raised his hands in congratulations.

    Although he expressed congratulations on his lips, Zhuge Liang felt quite unhappy in his heart.

    Who is Mrs. Liu? She is Yuan Shao's second wife. She comes from a wealthy family in Hebei. The supporters behind her are Sima Yi and other Hebei scholars.

    In recent years, Liu Bei has made great use of scholars from Hebei and is very fond of Mrs. Liu. The original Mrs. Chen from Xuzhou could barely keep her favor only because Liu Bei had a son.

    Now that the Liu family has given birth to a son for Liu Bei, Liu Bei's favor for him will inevitably double.

    With the Liu family favored, the scholars of Hebei would naturally be more important. However, this situation was something Zhuge Liang, a native of Xuzhou, did not want to see.

    Zhuge Liang had no choice but to bite the bullet and pretend to be happy.

    Liu Bei was overjoyed to have another son in his old age. At this moment, Liu Bei had completely forgotten about the war in the Central Plains and looked proud of the spring breeze.

    Just when Liu Bei was extremely proud, his troops hurriedly entered again and said with cupped hands: "Your Majesty, General Yide has sent an urgent report from Yanjin that Hulao Pass has been lost."

    "What!" Liu Bei exclaimed, and the proud look on his face suddenly disappeared.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
