Chapter 283 The Fall of Hangu Pass(2/2)

"Where is Guandu Port?" Cao Cao suddenly stood up and asked gritted his teeth, "Have Yu Jin and Zangba intercepted Ma Butcher and his remnant army?"

"No," Guo Jia sighed, "Ma Butcher Ma may have expected our army's arrangement and ordered Gan Ning to withdraw troops from Guandu Port first, and then picked up Ma Butcher Ma and Xiliang remnants onto a large ship in the river section near Sishui Pass. Yu Jin and the two generals of Tibetan Ba ​​found that something was wrong and went to pursue it again, it was too late."

"Oh~~" Cao Cao sighed, "As such a good opportunity, he actually let the butcher horse run away again."

"Lord, don't be discouraged." Guo Jia said, "As long as the character of the butcher Ma remains unchanged and he still likes to take risks with himself, then there will always be one time when he will fall into the hands of our army."

Cao Cao said with his teeth: "Yes, it was once in Sanjiangkou last time, and this time it was another time. As the saying goes, things can only be done with three things. If there is another next time, it will be a butcher who is lucky!"

"Lord!" As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, Liu Ye suddenly walked in quickly and said anxiously, "No, something happened!"

"Zi Yang?" Cao Cao stood up anxiously and asked, "What happened?"

"Young Master~~" Liu Ye gasped and said anxiously, "Young Master Ang took Gongzi'an, Gongzimin, and Major General Cao Xiu, Xiahou Wei, Xiahou De, Xiahou Shang, Xiahou Wei, Xiahou and General Guan Yu's official residence were surrounded by water. General Cao Hong wanted to lead his troops to stop him, but for some reason he had a quarrel with General Guan Yu. Now he is commanding the soldiers to pile up firewood outside Guan Yu's official residence, threatening to set fire!"

"Ah?" Cao Cao said in a lost voice, "Zi Xiu, Zi Lie is simply a mess! Zi Lian is an elder, and he is also involved in it. It's really outrageous."

Guo Jia whispered: "Lord, this is not a trivial matter. General Guan Yu escorted the emperor to Xuchang to make great contributions to the court."

"Let's go!" Cao Cao waved his sleeves and said loudly, "Feng Xiao and follow the original minister to go to Guan Yu's official residence."

On the official road from Hangu Pass to Luoyang, Wu Xizheng led 1,55 Liangzhou infantry to advance eastward.

During the day, although Wu Xi sternly scolded the school, at night, the more Wu Xi thought about it, the more he felt that this was an opportunity. No matter whether the lord's army won or lost in Yingchuan, if he could win or lose in Luoyang City and Hulao in one fell swoop, it would be a great contribution if he could capture Luoyang City and Hulao in one fell swoop with only two thousand troops.

Compared with this great contribution, the responsibility of sending troops without authorization is not worth mentioning! Wu Xi was lying on the bed and became more and more moved. In the end, he was unable to resist the temptation. He left five hundred people to guard Hangu Pass for the deputy general, and led 1,500 troops out of the pass overnight and rushed straight to Luoyang.

The night sky is silent and the evening breeze is swaying.

Wu Xi, who wanted to put on his wings and fly to Luoyang, was completely unaware that Li Dian's two thousand Cao troops had deceived the scouts of the Liangzhou Army by hiding the plan of hiding the world. At this time, he had quietly hidden himself near Hangu Pass and was hiding in the weeds on both sides of the official road. If Cao's army had not discovered the Liangzhou Army first, the two armies might have encountered each other head on the official road.

In the weeds, a Cao Jun school quietly climbed to Li Dian and asked with Li Dian's ears, "General, can you fight?"

"No fight!" Li Dian shook his head calmly and whispered, "I ordered the entire army not to act rashly and let them go!"

The primary school said inexplicably: "Why?"

Li Diandao: "This general has his own reasons."

Although the school was puzzled, it still passed on Li Dian's military order. The two thousand Cao troops remained silent and watched the Liangzhou soldiers drive away from under their noses. It was not until the Liangzhou army left that Li Dian summoned more than a dozen Cao army generals and entrusted them like this, and more than a dozen generals and school members took their orders and left.

It was about the second half of the night, and the torches suddenly appeared outside Hangu Pass, and the sound of killing sounds shook the sky. In the firelight, there were countless people running back and forth outside the pass, showing off their power. The deputy general who guarded the pass was worried that the Guanzhong had too few troops, so he ordered more than a dozen fast horses to go out at the same time, and fought to break through the siege and report to Wu Xi.

When the horse was catching up with Wu Xi, it was already dawn and Wu Xi's subordinates were just about to bury the pot and cook rice.

When Wu Xi heard that Hangu Pass was attacked, he was shocked and made another mistake. He didn't even have time to breathe and had no time to eat breakfast. He hurriedly led his troops back in a hurry, but was waiting for Li Dian's ambush halfway!

In terms of quality, Wu Xi's Liangzhou army was a county soldier, and Li Dian's Cao army was a new recruit, half a pound to eight taels. But the problem is that Wu Xi's Liangzhou soldiers ran all night, but the grain of rice has not yet entered, so they are tired and hungry. However, Li Dian's Cao army rested for the middle of the night, and had a full meal before dawn, and were full of energy.

Cao's army also had the advantage of military strength and the advantage of terrain. It is unknown whether the outcome of this battle was won or lost.

In less than two hours, Wu Xi's 1,500 Liangzhou army was wiped out, and Wu Xi was also captured alive by Li Dian.

After victory, Li Dian ordered the five hundred Cao troops to replace the soldiers of the Liangzhou army and pretended to be Wu Xi's soldiers to come to the door. When he arrived outside Hangu Pass, it was almost dusk. When the deputy general guarding the gate saw Wu Xi at the gate, he hurriedly opened and closed the door to greet him. When the gate opened wide, the five hundred Cao troops rushed in, and Li Dian seized Hangu Pass without any effort.
