Xuanyuan Pass is located in the northwest of Dengfeng City, between the two mountains of Taishi and Shaoshi.

The cliffs and rocks on both sides of the city are rugged, the mountains are majestic and dangerous, and the roads are tortuous and circling. It is a dangerous pass in the southeast of Luoyang. It has always been a place that military strategists must fight for, and it is also the pass on the road that leads to Luoyang from Dengfeng and the nearest road.

Last winter, Gao Huan recruited the people during the slack season, re-enforced Xuanyuan Pass, and asked the craftsman to create various cities to guard the city during the slack season.

Luoyang was in the expectation of Gao Huan, and he had already expected that the rebel army would eat Kaifeng after eating Luoyang. The central military government of Henan, where it was occupied, happened to be in central Henan. It had previously raided the rebel army. The rebel army wanted to attack and open the Feng army, and it would definitely wipe out the Chibei army and solve the flanking threats so that it would be safe to rob Kaifeng.

Gao Huan knew that there must be a battle with the Chuang Army, so he only repaired his relationship with the Ming Dynasty and rebuilt Xuanyuan Pass. Now this Pass is completely new.

Between the two mountains of Shaoshi and Taishi, a thick wall of one mile long, four zhang high and more than three zhang wide, crossed the road between the two mountains, blocking the rebel army and entering Dengfeng from the northwest.

In order to enhance defense, Gao Huan also set up six horse faces on the city wall, that is, edges and corners protruding from the wall, ensuring that there is no dead corner of the attack.

There are no shortage of rolling stones and raywoods on the city wall. Behind the city wall, there are ten Hui cannons created by the craftsman.

The military government has more than 500 registered people, refugees, blacksmiths and carpenters in the country.

Gao Huan is still very confident in the defense of Xuanyuan Pass, and the only shortcoming is the lack of troops.

Although the military government, under the rule of one million soldiers and civilians, can mobilize them to pull out a 100,000 army, but the permanent army has only 12,000 Red Army.

This number of troops must be prepared for. The rebel army came from other directions, and there were only 3,000 people guarding Xuanyuan Pass.

At this time, the scout reported that he had discovered the thief's vanguard, and the defenders on the city immediately became busy.

There were many soldiers on the city wall, and there were figures of transporting equipment everywhere. Chi Beijun set up a large pot on the city, cooked gold juice, carried arrows and fire cups. In front of the city wall, trenches were dug, many antlers were arranged, horses were resisted, and pits were trapped, and they were in a posture of defending themselves.

At this time, the soldiers were busy. Looking at the soldiers on the building, they suddenly shouted loudly: "Here you come!"

When Gao Huan heard the words, he immediately pressed his knife and rushed up to the tower. He saw a gray black dot moving rapidly on the flat ground in front of the Northwest Pass.

Gao Huan had also considered fighting a few battles, so he naturally knew what those were, so he immediately ordered: "Every divisions are in the ready for war!"

There was a busy situation in the city, and a large number of archers came to the city, and the team of three hundred treasured bird guns was on standby at any time.

Soon, the dark spots became closer and the defenders could see their outlines.

It was the endless rebels coming from all over the mountains and fields. The defenders looked into the distance and were shocked by the scene in front of them.

A few months ago, Chi Bei defeated 70,000 rebels in Xinzheng, which was considered a big scene, but the scene in front of him was even better than that in Xinzheng.

The defenders saw a black line slowly moving, and the rebel army swept over like locusts.

Gao Huan took a deep breath, and Chi Bei's general ordered to suppress the thunder in his heart.

Judging from the posture, there are probably 100,000 rebels, and their troops are thirty times that of the defenders, which is really scary.

Seeing this, Gao Huan smiled and said, "There are more than 100,000 thieves who did not leave Yichuan, but were blocked before Xuanyuan Pass. This is a big failure! The Supervisor has predicted that if there is no more than ten days, the thieves will retreat!"

When the generals saw the governor, they were so calm and barely settled down.

At this time, Gao Huan glanced at the rebels outside the city again, without giving too much instruction, but ordered: "Tell all troops to approach the thieves and attack immediately!"

"Zhong!" Wang Jingde and others immediately clasped their fists.

Under the city of Guan, the army broke into the wilderness, and the plains and hills of Xuanyuan Guan were crowded.

The rebel army that had just captured Luoyang was extremely powerful, and the crowds of people had reached the point where they sweated and turned into rain and their sleeves into clouds.

In front of the densely packed tides, Xuanyuan Pass seemed very small.

At this time, under the banner of the Break Army's Daqiu, Gu Kecheng, the general of the Break Army, appeared before the army.

Gu Kecheng was a general under Li Zicheng, a fellow villager in Shaanxi, and a general in the former camp. He is said to be one of the eighteen cavalry of the King of Rebellion.

He wore a phoenix-winged helmet, wrapped in iron leaf armor, holding a horse whip in one hand and a pergola in the other. Looking at Xuanyuan Pass in front of him, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

Xuanyuan Pass should be an old pass, but there is almost a new pass in front of him, which makes him feel a little interested in Gao Huan, the rising star.

Over the years, Gao Huan is the first to rebel against Guancheng, and it is indeed quite special.

However, even the rebel army took down Luoyang, and it was no problem to surrender Xuanyuan Pass.

Although the rebel army broke into Luoyang, the food in the city had been almost eaten by the soldiers and civilians in the city. The gold and silver seized by the rebel army could not be eaten as food, so the millions of rebel army had to continue looking for food.

After conquering Luoyang, many rebels and local gangs surrendered, and Niu Jinxing, a juren from Baofeng, Henan, came to join us.

The number of troops in the rebel army increased sharply and the food was consumed too quickly. As soon as Li Zicheng captured Luoyang, he had no time to take a breath, so he decided to attack and open the seal.

If the Feng is opened, Gao Huan of Dengfeng must be eliminated, so Li Zicheng sent a fierce general Gu Kecheng to lead his army to wipe out the Chi Bei army.

Originally, Li Zicheng was angry that Gao Huan attacked Li Zijing, and betrayed the rebel army and surrendered to the court, and wanted to destroy Gao Huan himself, but now the stall of the army is too big. In fact, Li Zicheng cannot decide where to attack next. It depends on where to be rich and where there is food to support millions of army soldiers.

In the eyes of the Chuangjun, Gao Huan's four counties were all poor counties and could not grab anything, so the main force of the Chuangjun could only lock in Kaifeng.

Gu Kecheng held a whip and put on a helmet. Judging from his years of experience in fighting, Xuanyuan Pass is not a big pass. It is a mile long in total, and it should be able to capture it after some casualties.

Now the rebel army lacks everything, but there is no shortage of people. No problem that can be solved by people is a problem.

Gu Kecheng looked back and said, "Old Wu, aren't you going to avenge your previous shame? I'll leave this Xuanyuan Pass to you. You must take it down within three days!"

Gu Kecheng threw down this sentence and pulled out his horse and left, while Wu Ruyi looked at Guan Cheng, but felt a kind of pressure.

Last time Li Zijing was defeated, Li Zicheng counted on him and asked him to attack Luoyang. His troops suffered a lot. Now Gu Kecheng has asked him to break through the barrier in three days. I am afraid that using cannon fodder alone will not work, and he will have to rely on the old camp soldiers. Some old brothers will definitely die.

The Break Army was originally a group of bandits, robbing together, and their strength was the most respected. If the troops lost too much, it would undoubtedly affect their status in the Break Army. However, if Chi Bei was not wiped out and avenged his previous shame, it would be difficult for him to raise his head in the Break Army, and he would always be looked down upon by others.

Wu Ruyi looked at Guancheng and shouted in a deep voice, "I ordered all camps to set up camps in front of the gates, and officers above the commander-level officers should go to the big tent to discuss matters!"
