Four hundred and seventieth chapters Luoyang recaptured

When the main troops of the Anxi Army, led by Chang Zhong and Liu Hongbo, arrived at Hangu Pass, the soldiers of the Modao Camp were blocking the long corridor of Hangu Pass, resisting the tide of rebel attacks.

Starting from Anxi Camp outside Luoyang City, Chang Zhong and Liu Hongbo did not dare to delay for a moment. They rode their horses all the way. After entering Wushan, the road became difficult. Chang Zhong decisively ordered the horses to be enclosed, and all the soldiers walked into the mountain to rush to Hangu Pass.

He tried his best to walk through the dense jungle, but the mountain road was difficult to walk. Chang Zhong's troops were still a little later, two sticks of incense later than the agreed two hours.

When they arrived at the Mount Gu Pass outside Hangu Pass, the scouts saw the rebels rushing towards Hangu Pass like a tide, and went all the way to the price. In Hangu Pass, it was vaguely seen that the soldiers of the Modao Camp were still holding on with difficulty, not giving in a single step. There were corpses everywhere in front of the pass, including rebels and Modao Camp.

After the scout reported the military information to Chang Zhong, Chang Zhong ordered an attack from the rear of the rebels.

On the side of the mountain road, the Anxi Army hidden in the jungle quietly emerged and quickly blocked the rebels' retreat. According to Gu Qing's prior arrangement, Chang Zhong quickly used a long halberd and long spear mark on the narrow mountain road to serve as the front army, while the archers climbed up the mountainside.

After the soldiers arranged the arrangements, Chang Zhong shouted loudly without delay for a moment.

"Shoot the arrow!"

There was a muffled sound on both sides of the mountain road, and the rain of arrows was like locusts in the sky, shooting towards the rebel rear troops.

The rear army of the rebels suddenly became in chaos. The former army used the human sea tactics to attack Modao Battalion desperately, but the rear army was relatively calm. However, no one expected that another imperial army arrived, blocked the rear route and attacked them bravely.

The news that the rear was cut off quickly reached the front army. Shi Siming was shocked and hurriedly ordered the central army to turn around and rush to the rear. The rebels who were attacking the Modao Camp were also panicked. In chaos in the rear, the morale of the entire army was affected.

In the corridor of Hangu Pass, Li Siye was exhausted and could hardly raise any strength. The special Mo knife in his hand became extremely heavy, as if he would lose his strength and fall down in the next moment.

In the corridor, the soldiers of the Modao Camp were extremely tired. The thirty-pound Modao kept waving for two hours. During this period, there was only a short rest that no one could stand. The soldiers could barely support them with their firm will.

The rebels were still coming like a tide. Li Siye was gasping for breath and was about to wave Mo Dao again, but found that he could no longer lift Mo Dao.

Li Siye smiled miserably, simply gave up swinging the knife, but just sighed heavily.

In this battle, at least Modao Camp did not embarrass the Marquis and did not let the Marquis up for a thousand days. After more than two hours, they held on, Hangu Pass was still in the hands of the Anxi Army, and the rebels' fierce offensive like huge waves hitting the shore did not tear open the Modao Camp's defense line.

A rebel raised his long halberd and rushed towards him with a roar. Li Siye's arms drooped and gave up resisting. It was not that he didn't want to resist, but that he was really out of strength and he was seriously exhausted.

The rebels rushed over to the disorganized array, relying on their personal courage, getting closer and closer to Li Siye. Li Siye could even see the ferocious expression on the rebels' faces, which were congested and red eyes. The madness in their eyes was exactly the same as that of the soldiers of the Modao Camp.

"What kind of official should the court be able to posthumously give me? The Marquis' rewards cannot be reduced, and the little ones will never starve to death..."

When the tip of the halberd was about to touch his chest, the last thought in Li Siye's mind was still the unsatisfied wife, children, and children.

In the flash of lightning, the long halberd that was close to his chest was not moving for a long time. Li Siye opened his eyes and suddenly found a feather arrow inserted into the throat of the rebels. The feather arrow was shot from the back of the rebels. The rebels tried hard to stab the feather forward, but their strength had quickly passed away with the deadly feather arrow, and finally fell into the dust unwillingly.

Li Siye was shocked and looked at the offensive of the rebels in front of him, and it was inexplicably loosened. The rebel soldiers who had no intention of attacking were now unwilling to attack. Instead, they kept turning their heads and looking back, and then looking at the rebels like tides on the mountain road, there were signs of restlessness and riots in the crowd.

Morale is invisible and intangible, but Li Siye has been leading the army for many years, but he can feel it very intuitively and accurately at the first time.

At this moment, what Li Siye felt was that the morale of the rebels collapsed and collapsed in an instant. Like the summer afternoon shower, it came violently and walked quickly, rushing like a tide and retreating like a tide.

Li Siye quickly understood what was going on, and couldn't help but be surprised and happy. His strength seemed to have recovered three points. He turned around and raised his arms to the extremely tired soldiers of the Modao Camp and shouted: "Reinforcements are here!"

The soldiers of the Modao Camp were revived and immediately looked to the rear of the rebels. After seeing the obvious riot, the soldiers cheered.

The strong emotional stimulation made the originally exhausted and powerless soldiers more strength out of thin air. Li Siye yelled while the iron was hot: "Before reinforcements defeat the rebel army, we must defend Hangu Pass tightly. Brothers, we are just one last breath, hold on, and turn around and ask the court for the merits of everyone!"

The soldiers of the Modao Camp responded loudly.

Li Siye gritted his teeth and said, "Now, the whole camp is lined up and enter--!"

The soldiers supported their tired bodies and incredibly burst out with amazing potential. Under the leadership of Li Siye, they waved Mo Dao out of the city wall corridor of Hangu Pass, occupying the open space outside the pass again, and still dancing Mo Dao like before the war, as if an old machine was started. No matter how old it was, it could still crush all the joints.

At this time, the rebels no longer cared about Mo Dao Camp. Because there was great trouble in the rear, their front road was destined to be unable to break, and the rear road was cut off by the reinforcements of the Anxi Army. Shi Siming was furious in the central army and ordered his full support to open up the rear road blocked by the Anxi Army.

After a series of orders, Shi Siming sat weakly on the horse's back, his expression full of depression.

He knew that this 50,000 troops had been defeated, and it was still unknown whether it would be wiped out. He rushed to Luoyang to regain the northern grain road, and he didn't even think about it. He never expected that he would be ambushed on the Hanguguan Mountain Road. Even if he escaped from the sky, how should he explain to An Lushan?

Thinking of He Qiannian who was also ambushed, after escaping back, he was chopped by An Lushan without hesitation, Shi Siming felt a little chilling in his neck and his expression became more and more desperate.

"Kill out! Fight out even if you fight your life!" Shi Siming roared hysterically with his red eyes. After saying that, he used a horse whip to pull away the rebels blocking the road, and urged the horses to rush towards the back army. He wanted to command himself and open up the back road at any cost. 50,000 troops must not be destroyed outside Hangu Pass.

…………

Luoyang City.

Wang Gui and more than a dozen personal guards fought hard to kill the rebels inside the city gate. They were about to open the city gate and put down the suspension bridge, but the rebels on the city tower rushed over and fought with the personal guards.

Wang Gui knew the importance of the matter, so he picked up a rebel weapon from the ground, and while killing the rebels at the end of the corridor, he turned his head and shouted: "Open the city gate first! Put down the suspension bridge!"

A personal guard turned around and shouted, "Wang Gui, go open the city gate, let's hold on here!"

Wang Gui ignored it, rushed forward and slashed a rebel with a backhand, and pulled the guard backwards. After the guard staggered back a few steps, he suddenly found that Wang Gui had already completed his position and was fighting with the rebels.

The guard gritted his teeth and understood what Wang Gui meant, so he turned around and ran towards the city gate, turning the winch of the suspension bridge with great effort. With the harsh creaking sound, the suspension bridge outside the city gate was slowly lowered.

The fires in the houses not far away were getting bigger and bigger, and the fires reflected the night sky red. The battles in the city gate corridor became more and more intense. Wang Gui had several more wounds on his body, and he still gritted his teeth and fought desperately to resist the rebels.

Suddenly, a rapid sound of horse hooves came from outside the city gate. Wang Gui and others did not hear it, but the personal guards who opened the city gate heard it. After listening intently for a while, then shouted in surprise: "General Chen's troops have arrived!"

Wang Gui was also very happy. After swinging his sword, he turned his head and said loudly: "Hurry open the city gate!"

The rebels on the city tower also heard the movement, so the sound of gongs and drums sounded, and the rebels who had originally besieged Wang Gui and others were immediately transferred to the city tower.

The city gate was tightly clamped by the wide and heavy gate bolt, and the personal guards could not open it alone. Wang Gui and the others fought bloodily on the other end of the corridor, and had no time to clone them. The personal guards were so anxious that they jumped straight into their feet.

At this time, a rough voice came from outside the city gate: "Is it under Mr. Gu's command?"

The personal guards inside the city gate shouted in surprise: "We are the personal guards of Marquis Gu. We are the orders of the Marquis to be our inner support. The city gate cannot be opened. Please help us with the robes outside!"

The voice outside said immediately: "You can't wait until you can't open it, and then you can't open it. Haha, the suspension bridge is put down. Can the mere city gate stop us?"

The personal guard immediately retreated, turned around and ran to the other end of the city gate, fighting side by side with Wang Gui and others, blocking the rebels' crazy attack.

Immediately afterwards, I heard the city gates ramming sounds, and thousands of troops outside shouted and killed, and the rain of arrows shot towards the city head. Under the cover of bows and arrows, two slammed cars hit the city gate with force. With a dull loud noise, the dust above the city gate slammed down.

Wang Guiqing knew that the city was broken at this moment, and he even tried hard to wield the sword, blocking the crazy rebels in front of the corridor.

…………

Anxi Camp.

Gu Qing was not asleep all night, standing in front of the sand table in the handsome tent, staring blankly. He looked solemn and a hint of anxiety.

This battle was a large-scale battle he personally commanded since he took power, and it was a battle at both ends. The difficulty can be imagined.

The troops in the camp were already empty, leaving only the empty camp tent. The guards around them were sent out to temporarily act as scouts to inquire about the military information of both sides. Only Han Jie and more than 20 guards were left in the huge camp to protect him.

Han Jie didn't close his eyes all night and stood outside the handsome tent, looking around with a restless look. His right hand was pressed on the hilt of the sword on his waist, maintaining a highly alert state.

Only he knew best that the Anxi Army camp was the most empty at this moment. If the Marquis was alone, Gao Shang discovered the loopholes in the camp and sent a hundred soldiers to attack the camp, the Marquis and their personal guards would not escape to death tonight.

Fortunately, Gao Shang was not that smart, so he was busy sending troops to rescue Hangu Pass.

A rapid sound of horse hooves from far to near, Han Jie immediately stared forward alertly, clasped the hilt of the sword with his right hand, and his waist was slightly half-bowed, and he was about to break out.

The sound of horse hooves approached, and Han Jie gradually saw the person on the horse's back and immediately let go of his hand holding the hilt of the sword.
