Chapter 326: The siege begins with many doubts

Xu Zhimo said in "Farewell Cambridge": I left as gently as I came. I waved my sleeves and didn't take away a single cloud.

Qin Wen is indeed walking away in style now, but he has left a lot of mess for Qin Hao. Qin Hao really regrets why he agreed?

Qin Wen also regretted it in his heart. His son had warned him before leaving the city, and he took all precautions, but in the end he fell into Zhang Jue's trap.

Seeing Qin Wen's refusal so decisively, Zhang Jiao was also disappointed. If he could, he would never want to attack Hulao Pass, and he really valued Qin Wen, but it was a pity that God failed to fulfill his wish.

There is no war without death. Zhang Jiao sighed inwardly.

The generals behind Zhang Jiao were furious when they saw Qin Wen turning around and leaving without showing any dignity.

In their opinion, Zhang Jiao's treatment of Qin Wen was not an ordinary courtesy. In order to win over him, he even took the position of the general of the Kingdom of Heaven to invite him. This was a special treatment that many Qu commanders could not get, but Qin Wen did not hesitate.

Reject.

From the perspective of Dian Wei and other die-hard loyalists, Qin Wen is simply ignorant of good and evil, and he will never forgive his sin even if he dies.

Dian Wei and the other four generals couldn't bear it anymore and rushed out together, hoping to capture Qin Wen alive before Qin Wen could 'escape' back to the city gate.

Qin Hao's face turned cold. Without even giving orders, Lu Bu, Ran and Min took the initiative to block the front, followed closely by Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Qin Yong and Zhang Fei.

"Bring them all back to me." Zhang Jiao shouted, a flash of paleness flashed across his old face. Although it disappeared quickly, Qin Hao still noticed him.

Sure enough, Zhang Jue's body was not as healthy as he appeared. Qin Hao thought to himself, and then looked at Xiang Yu next to Zhang Jue suspiciously.

Xiang Yu's reaction was a little too calm. Except for Ran Min, all six of his generals had fought against Xiang Yu. Did Xiang Yu really think that Dian Wei and the other four could defeat Lu Bu and the other six?

As soon as the four generals heard Zhang Jue's shout, they stopped immediately. Dian Wei turned around with a look of unwillingness and asked: "Great virtuous master, Qin Wen doesn't know how to praise, how can he let him go like this?"

"Everyone has his own ambitions, so don't force them. General Qin is unwilling to surrender, so I have no choice but to come and get the Hulao Pass in person!" Zhang Jiao said calmly, and then ignored the generals and urged his horse to move slowly towards him.

After leaving the main formation, the four generals had no choice but to return to the main formation.

If we can't reach an agreement, we can only fight. Although Zhang Jiao failed in persuading him to surrender, he successfully dealt a blow to the Han army.

After this meeting, Zhang Jiao justified his rebellious behavior, completely branded Liu Hong the title of faint emperor, and labeled the Han court as dark and corrupt. The morale of the Han army will definitely be affected by this.

However, the overall quality of the Han army is better than that of the Yellow Turbans. Although it was affected somewhat this time, it still has a strong city and famous generals to command, which is enough to weaken it. It is still extremely difficult for the Yellow Turbans to capture Hulao Pass.

As expected by Qin Hao, the meeting out of the city failed to start a fight, and all of Qin Hao's previous preparations were in vain.

After watching Zhang Jue and others go away, Qin Hao and others also returned to the tower. Ran Min seemed a little unhappy along the way.

The best general in the world was clearly right in front of him, but he failed to fight him, which made Ran Min extremely disappointed.

Forget it, it’s not too late. Ran Min thought to himself.

In the late Han Dynasty, before a war, both the enemy and the enemy would usually demonstrate their bravery by fighting generals. Victory would also dampen the enemy's morale and make the subsequent battle easier. Therefore, a routine was formed. Before a big battle, generals must be fought.

.

Ran Min was looking forward to Xiang Yu's challenge, but he didn't expect that God would play a joke on him. What he was waiting for was a direct attack from the Yellow Turbans.

Qin Hao was also puzzled by the Yellow Turban's uncharacteristic behavior, but he couldn't figure out what the problem was.

In terms of generals, Lu Bu is not afraid of Xiang Yu because he has Ran Min on his side, but the Yellow Turbans don’t know about Ran Min’s existence.

The Yellow Turbans have the best general in the world, Xiang Yu, and are not afraid of the Han army at all. Defeating the Han generals in front of thousands of troops is also a good opportunity to undermine the morale of the Han army, but why did the Yellow Turbans give up?

Qin Hao stared at Xiang Yu in the distance outside the city, trying to see something from it, but the distance was too far and even the figure was a bit blurry.

"Reporting to the Governor, Zhang Jiao appointed Xiang Yan as the commander-in-chief of the siege and led an army of 50,000 to attack the city."

Looking at the military formation that was slowly detaching from the Yellow Turban army and marching towards the pass, Qin Wen changed his usual amiability and said in a serious voice: "Qin Qiong, I have ordered you to be the commander-in-chief of the defense of the city.

, Qin Zheng Qin Hu is the deputy general, and he must guard Hulao Pass for the capital."

"Promise." Qin Qiong and three other people stood up and said in unison: "I will live up to the governor's trust."

Qin Wen nodded with satisfaction. The reason why he arranged this was not without selfish motives.

In the battle of attacking and defending the city, no strategy can be used, otherwise Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition would not be so difficult.

Among the Yanmen army, Yue Fei was ranked first in terms of his ability to defend the city. At Yanmen Pass, Yue Fei once used 7,000 soldiers of his family with low combat power to block the 100,000 Xiongnu army. No one dares to say that this record can guarantee victory.<

/p>

Logically speaking, it is best to leave the task of defending Hulao Pass to Yue Fei. However, in Qin Wen's view, although Yue Fei is loyal, he is still a foreigner, and this kind of training opportunity is naturally given to his own children.<

/p>

The current Qin Qiong is not Qin Qiong, a fierce general whose strength is with force, but Marshal Qin whose strength is with commander-in-chief.

With Commander 98 Qin Qiong defending Hulao Pass, even if the enemy siege general was Xiang Yan, he would never be able to take advantage at all, so Qin Hao did not raise any objection.

Due to the terrain restrictions of Hulao Pass, it is impossible for the Yellow Turban Army to fully exert its military advantage. This is also the biggest reason why Zhang Jiao only brought an army of 250,000 people. After all, it is useless to bring too many people. He can only

It’s just a waste of food stuck outside the customs.

The 50,000-strong army still couldn't be deployed, so Xiang Yan divided it into five teams and attacked the city in succession.

The Yellow Turbans were well prepared for this battle. They had ladders, well rails, battering rams, catapults... all the siege equipment should be available, which was dazzling.

Looking at the majestic pass in front of him, Xiang Yan gently stroked his long beard and said loudly: "Send the order, the first pair is ready to attack!"

After a military order, the first group of tens of thousands of Yellow Turban troops officially began to attack the city. The eyes of all the Yellow Turban soldiers were filled with burning color, as if they were brainwashed cult followers.

The task of the first team of the Yellow Turbans was not to storm the city tower, but to fill in the moat of Hulao Pass.
