Chapter 169 Entering the Boshui Pass

Guo Jia's vote was the beginning of good news. Xi Zhong and Xun You accepted the Taiping Army's conscripts to serve as officials one after another. Ignoring him, he transferred Xi Zhong to Yanzhou and Xun You to Jingzhou. Xiao Lan led Guo Jia, Dian Wei, and [-] troops to Sishuiguan to join Xu Chu and Zhou Cang.

The 13 troops set up camp at the foot of the Sishui Pass. Although it was not as large as the coalition forces of the Eighteenth Route Princes, the 13 troops were all elite Taiping troops. The army of the princes of its master is more than one chip.

However, after all, Sishui Pass is a powerful pass in the world, which is extraordinary. Although the pass force is less than [-], it is not an easy task to capture such fierce men as Liu Guanzhang. Otherwise, the eighteen princes The coalition forces will not be blocked here by Hua Xiong and Li Su for more than a full month, and will not be able to advance an inch.

At dusk, Xiao Lan gathered all the generals in the big tent, with Guo Jia at his side, and asked in a voice: "Feng Xiao is the military advisor of the army, do you know any tricks that can help me capture Sishui Pass?"

Guo Jia said with a smile: "It seems difficult to capture Sishui Pass, but it's actually not difficult. I just don't know if the generals are willing to listen to me."

Xiao Lan said with a smile: "Don't worry about Feng Xiao, the Taiping Army is strict in running the army, as long as you plan well and properly, the generals under my command will be at your disposal."

"That's right, Master Military Adviser, if you have any orders, you can just order them directly." Everyone admired Xiao Lan, even Guo Jia, who valued Xiao Lan, also respected Xiao Lan, and responded immediately.

"Thanks to the love from my lord and all the generals, Jia is very polite. Time is running out, so Jia will make a long story short. I hope that everyone can work together to defeat the guards and break through the barrier as soon as possible." He said: "Although Sishuiguan is the most powerful pass in the world, there are only Tao Qian, Liu Guan and Zhang three brothers, less than 13 defenders. Our Taiping Army has [-] troops. It is not difficult to break it by force, but the casualties are too high. The gains outweigh the losses. Therefore, I decided to mobilize an army of [-], with each [-] as a unit, one virtual and one real, taking turns to attack the city, day and night, the defenders in the city, only [-], as long as they are not given time to breathe, I believe it will not take long God, Sishui Pass can be broken easily."

"It's such an exhausting strategy, it really deserves to be a conspiracy against Guo Jia!" Xiao Lan was shocked in his heart, but his face remained calm, and he immediately ordered: "Part 3, Zhou Cang obeys the order, and I will give you [-] horses. After nightfall, start to attack the city. Don't attack by force. You must know how to judge the truth. If you encounter Liu Guanzhang and the other three, you will be invincible. You just need to keep harassing them. To deal with these three people, don't be afraid to waste bows and arrows. Try not to fight with them. Hand-to-hand combat."

"The other two departments are led by Xu Chu and Dian Wei respectively. They are replaced every half a day. If the time is up, you can rest at ease. When the time comes, you must not relax. Do you understand?"

Guo Jia said with a smile: "The commander-in-chief is indeed a person who is proficient in strategy. If so, within three days at the most, the Sishui Pass will definitely come down!"

"It's Fengxiao's clever strategy!" Xiao Lan laughed and said: "In this way, the guards at Sishui Pass not only have to distinguish whether our army's attack is false or real, but they also don't even have time to rest. It doesn't take three days. One day, they will be sleepy and exhausted, how can they stop my 13 army?"

Hearing this, all the generals couldn't help showing proud smiles when they thought that all the guards in the gate a few days later would look like panda-eyed, powerless shrimps with soft legs. Praise said: "The strategist's strategy is really clever, I admire it!"

Guo Jia said modestly: "If there are no generals to lead the army to attack the city, no matter how clever Jia's strategy is, it will be useless after all."

"Soldiers, military divisions, each perform their own duties, and have meritorious service. Why bother to blame each other and be humble!" Xiao Lan said with a smile: "Okay, let's go down quickly and prepare to go. The commander and the military division will lead an army of [-] people, dispatch them in the middle, and respond at any time." You guys, remember, these few days, I don't ask you to break the city, I just need to hold back this group of defenders and not let them rest."

"No." All the generals cupped their fists and responded in unison!

After nightfall, Zhou Cang took the lead in leading the troops to launch a tentative attack: the sound of war drums shook the mountains and rivers, followed immediately by the shouts of killing, the sound of cannon horns, and the [-]-strong army shouting in unison. The momentum was astonishing, and the sound shook the sky. The pass was shaken by the earth and the mountains, and the chickens, ducks, geese, and dogs in the pass were even more noisy. Tao Qian, the three brothers Liu, Guan, Zhang, and even the guards who had just fallen asleep were all awakened at once.

"No, the Taiping bandits are attacking the city. Hurry up and defend the city, defend the city!" Tao Qian hurriedly ordered loudly, Liu Guanzhang and the others got the military order, and rushed to the tower with the guards who got up hastily to resist the Taiping army.

A total of [-] troops attacked Sishui Pass in an all-round way. These people shouted while carrying ladders and building carts. Tao Qian, Liu Bei and others couldn't help being secretly surprised when they saw this. What's going on with the Taiping Army?The army hadn't taken much rest until now, so they attacked the city overnight in such a hurry?
But, there is no way, since they are attacking the city, they have to defend the city tightly, but as long as Liu Guanzhang and the others are there, the attack on any part of the city wall will be weak, and no one will fight against these three fierce men who can fight against Lu Bufang. People fight fiercely, even Zhou Cang, who is self-sufficient and brave, is no exception.

The first wave of tentative attacks ended quickly, and the enemy did not even charge up the city wall. This made Tao Qian, Liu Guan, and Zhang brothers very happy. It turned out that the Taiping Army was not invincible, even if it was well-trained. What about the original Yellow Turban Army?Sooner or later, he will be defeated by the imperial army.

Victory will always boost morale. When the water is closed, everyone from top to bottom is in a state of excitement.

Unfortunately, this joy of victory did not last long. Less than half an hour later, the battle drums under the city sounded again, and then Zhou Cang led the army to attack again.

The three brothers Tao Qian, Liu Guan and Zhang were shocked, and quickly organized people to resist. However, the city wall of Sishuiguan is not small, and Tao Qian is old. However, the Taiping Army's elite thieves were ruthless, and where there was no Liu Guanzhang, the offensive was fierce and fierce. The three brothers ran around, but they were exhausted for a while.

In this way, the attack lasted for more than an hour, and the Taiping army retreated slowly. This time, the Taiping army's offensive was much more violent than the first time, and the leading warriors had already reached the top of the wall.

"Grandma, it's finally over, you can go back and have a good sleep." Zhang Fei turned cursingly and was about to go down the tower, but at this moment, horns were blown again outside the city, drums were beating, and shouts, The sound of horn cannons came over one after another. Obviously, the Taiping Army attacked the city again.

"The thieves are coming again, defend the city, defend the city!" The previous two offensives were more violent than the last. Tao Qian, Liu Bei and others quickly ordered, preparing to put up a 12-point spirit and come to a strict defense.

However, unexpectedly, this time the Taiping Army's offensive looked huge, but in fact it was just a bluff. Thirty thousand troops rushed to the city, without even using ladders, and slowly receded like an ebbing tide. The defenders on the city were stunned.

"Damn, what's going on?" Zhang Fei couldn't help but cursed at him.

Liu Bei glanced at the opponent's orderly retreat, and his eyes flashed, as if he understood something. This Taiping thief is really cunning. He did this simply because he wanted to rely on the strength of his people to attack the city in turn with wheel battles. , the truth and reality are uncertain, leaving no breathing space for one's own side!
However, even if you see through the opponent's strategy, what can you do? Even if the opponent is just a feint attack, you must not strictly guard against it. After all, a feint attack may turn into a real attack anytime, anywhere!

I have to say that the person who came up with this scheme is really too vicious!

"Ah!" Zhongjun, Guo Jia, who was watching the battle with Xiao Lan, suddenly sneezed heavily, and muttered unhappily, "Could it be who is speaking ill of Jia behind his back?"
