After receiving the news that the building was broken, Liang Xi did not hesitate at all, and immediately led the remnants of the army to defeat the generals and retreated to Luoyang in a hurry.
In the Tiger Prison Pass, there are only more than 10,000 Cao troops, and what to use to resist the Gongsun army is naturally a good plan.
After only staying in Luoyang for half a day and replenishing the grain and grass, Liang Xi led the crowd out of the city and continued to go north to send a letter to Guguan.
Luoyang was almost burned to the ground by Dong Zhuo's fire, although it was extinguished by the eighteen princes, and was repaired by Liu Xie ten years ago, but it has long since disappeared from the majesty of the Eastern Han Dynasty Jingshi Luoyang, and now even the tiger prison has been broken, and the broken Luoyang City can not stop Gongsun Bai's soldiers It's just that Liang Xi ignored one thing after all, that is, the marching speed of the Gongsun army.
Outside the south gate of Luoyang City, Liang Xi led an army of more than 10,000 people just out of the city, and he heard the horse galloping: "Report to the lord, the cavalry of the Gongsun army is already ten miles away, looking at our army coming."
Woohoo As soon as the words fell, a cry sounded from the head of the army, Liang Xi raised his head and saw a jade belt carved hovering back and forth on his head, and his face couldn't help but change greatly.
He had lived outside the fortress for a long time, and when he saw that the jade belt carving on the top of his head was just soaring and circling back and forth on their heads, he naturally knew that this must be the eagle of Gongsun Bai's reconnaissance. shout Liang Xi immediately drew his bow and arrow, and shot an arrow at the jade belt carving.
The bowstring sounded, and the jade belt carving seemed to hear the sound, and immediately shouted, spread its wings and soared into the sky, disappearing into the clouds.
"The white horse of the thief army is already five miles away" Just when Liang Xi was hesitating, he saw a horse rushing towards him.
The prestige of the white horse Yicong, no one in the world knows, only more than 10,000 foot soldiers, not enough for the white horse to go back and forth a few charges to eat, and the white horse Yicong is the fastest light horse in the world, here is more than 100 miles away from Hangu Pass, there is a jade belt carving to watch, even if you want to run, you can't run away.
Liang Xi had no choice but to sigh and resolutely shouted: "Go north, quickly retreat to Pingxian" The road to the west is no longer feasible, and the Xuanyuan Pass in the south is already a lonely pass, which will be broken sooner or later, and Liang Xi at this time has no other choice but to choose to escape to the north, which has to bet that Gongsun Bai will not look down on his 10,000 soldiers and horses, and will not chase after him.
More than 10,000 remnants of Cao's army were defeated and fled north, spilling grain and grass all over the place.
Thundered Five thousand white horses came from the rolling in, snow-clad white horses, like a white wave, and soon approached the south gate of Luoyang, and they could still see a black shadow formed by more than 10,000 Cao troops in the northern sky.
Gongsun Bai stood on his horse, glanced at Liang Xi in the north, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and turned around and shouted: "The whole army is pursuing, you must capture Liang Xi, and you must not hurt his life."
"Lord, now that Liang Xi has fled north in a hurry, Hangu Pass is only more than a hundred miles away, why not chase to Hangu Pass on a light horse, and take advantage of the fact that the thief army is not yet ready, and make a surprise attack after dark" Zhao Yun behind him asked puzzled.
Gongsun Bai showed a strange smile on his face, and said with a smile: "Hangu Pass is dangerous, the guard general Guo Huai is a famous general of Cao Ying, and he has a good command of the army, how can he easily attack it, I have my own clever plan, but I can break through Hangu Pass without much effort." ” Zhao Yun stopped talking, and raised his spear: "Come with me" Five thousand white horses followed Zhao Yun to the north to pursue, leaving only more than 100 guards to follow Gongsun Bai, hundreds of steps to the east, and more than 20,000 Gongsun army iron cavalry surged.
Gongsun Bai pulled out the token in his waist, turned his head to Wu Ming behind him and shouted: "Pass the order, order Moyun to ride, fly wolf to ride and relieve the worry army, first enter Luoyang to assemble, and tomorrow the whole army will attack Hangu Pass, and Guo Taichang will temporarily take the position of commander of the three armies on behalf of his own father, the chief general of the three armies, be sure to listen to his orders" The white horse Yi rolled in from the iron horse, and suddenly, the faint thunder gradually resounded, and finally became a suffocating rumbling sound, overwhelming the sky, and wanted to fill the entire heavens.
Under the gaze of the soldiers of the Cao army or trembling, or cold, or fearful, or despairing, the white horse righteousness swept all over the mountains and fields from the iron cavalry to the middle, and the extremely fast march was lined up into a strict and neat cavalry, surging forward, and the rows of sharp steel knives reflected the cold sky Hundreds of paces away from the Cao army, the surging Bai Ma Yi began to slow down from the cavalry formation, and then slowly spread out towards the two wings with the blood-colored banner as a marking, as if deliberately trying to demonstrate to the Cao army, and the cavalry array spread out to the two wings until it was several miles long.
The deafening sound of hooves finally dissipated, but the billowing smoke and dust kept rolling over, rising with the wind, looking out through the hazy smoke and dust, and the white horse Yi became more and more solemn and infinite from the riding array For a while, it was impossible to tell how many iron horses there were in Baima Yicong, only to feel that a vast expanse as white as clouds and snow filled the sky and earth.
"Whew" Suddenly, a loud howl sounded leisurely.
"Whoa" Five thousand white horses howled in unison, and raised the hundred steel swords in their hands above the top, and the sharp cold flame instantly confused the eyes of all Cao Jun, startling more than 10,000 Cao Jun in two trembles, panicking.
"There is no way to retreat, fight" Liang Xi didn't expect Gongsun Bai to chase after him for more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and a burst of blood and energy surged, and immediately took the lead, roaring angrily and leading more than 10,000 Cao troops to quickly form a formation, ready to meet the enemy, but quite powerful.
Bai Ma Yi came from the front of the formation, Wen Chou snorted coldly, and said to Zhao Yun beside him: "General Zhao, the thief army does not seem to have archers in formation, please allow the last general to lead a thousand elite cavalry to charge the formation."
Zhao Yun snorted and said in a deep voice: "You can ride diagonally and shoot it with a strong crossbow." ” Wen Chou put his hands together on the horse's back and said loudly: "Obey" When the words fell, Wen Chou pulled the reins of his horse fiercely and came out of the line to the front of the formation.
The eyes of a thousand white horse Yicong focused on Wen Chou's body for a moment, Wen Chou slowly raised the hundred steel sword, and suddenly swung it heavily in the direction of Cao Jun, and the mournful long howl resounded in the sky in an instant.
"Rush into Battle" "Hah" In the continuous shouting, a thousand elite horsemen stood out from the formation, followed closely behind Wen Chou, and covered the Cao army like a tide after the formation.
One thousand against one thousand twelve, with one against twelve, even if it is Bai Ma Yicong, it is too big Liang Xisu stood up in front of the formation, with a little annoyance on his face, and a little excited.
Although all the archers had been lost in the Battle of Tiger Prison Pass and had not escaped, Liang Xi's command had only heavily armored foot soldiers, pikemen and halberd soldiers, but they were not afraid, although the enemy army was strong, but only less than a tenth of their strength to charge into battle, he did not believe that his soldiers and horses were so vulnerable The deafening sound of iron hooves, a thousand white horses swept from the light horses like the wind and clouds.
"Horse Rejection" Liang Xi gave an order, and two thousand pikemen stepped forward ten steps and put one end of the extended spear in their hand on the ground.
The end of the spear tied to the tip of the spear was raised obliquely at a 45-degree angle, and it was suddenly arranged into a cold and strict anti-horse gun array, and in the face of such a strict gun array, even if the white horse was able to break into the formation with light horsemen, he would suffer heavy casualties.
"Hey, hey, hey" Wen Chou looked up to the sky and smiled, put the knife in the sheath, picked up a seven-stone strong crossbow, and aimed at Liang Xi under the banner of Cao Jun, behind Wen Chou, a thousand white horses returned to the sheath from the Yi Sui knife, and they all picked up the rhubarb crossbow, and the arrows of the branches were fiercely aimed at the enemy.
Wen Chou shouted, gently pulled the reins of the horse, and the mount under his crotch immediately turned around, and cut the upper right corner of Cao Jun obliquely, which could be cut in front of Cao Jun's formation, and at the same time, a three-edged wolf tooth arrow shot out violently "Huh" The sharp arrow blade cut through the air in an instant, let out a sharp scream, and went straight for Liang Xi.
Boom Liang Xi was frightened, and hurriedly raised his knife to cover it, but he heard a tragic neighing of the horse under his crotch, and then he struggled to fall him under the horse, and then his hooves were weak, and he fell with an arrow in his neck.
"Instigation" A thousand white horses rode by, cutting diagonally from the corner of the Cao army's formation with smoke and dust, but a thousand sharp arrows pierced into the dense Cao army's formation with a piercing scream.
The continuous miserable howls rushed into the sky, and countless Cao army soldiers had already wailed and fell into a pool of blood, and then more than a thousand military horses avoided the front army's horse rejection gun array, and inserted into the Cao army formation from both wings like sharp blades, instantly rushing the Cao army's formation into chaos.
A white streamer rushed to kill, heading straight for the banner of the Cao Army, Liang Xi, who had just rushed to the ground, had not time to change his horse, and he had already been held up by someone to hold the belt of the battle armor and hold it high in the air.
"You're lucky, the lord specially told you to spare your life" Wen Chou, who lifted Liang Xi high, laughed.
The Lord will be captured, and Cao's army will become more and more chaotic.
"Liang Xi has been captured, disarm and not kill" With a mountain of shouts, all the Cao troops threw down their weapons, raised their hands, and surrendered on the spot.
According to the plateau in the west of Hangu Pass, it is bordered by the absolute stream in the east, the Qinling Mountains in the south, the Yellow River in the north, and is closed in the valley, which is as dangerous as the letter, so it is called the Hangu Pass.
Hangu Pass was built in the Spring and Autumn Period, is the throat of going to Luoyang in the east and reaching Chang'an in the west, is called "the road of the two capitals", and has been a place for soldiers to fight for since ancient times.
Hangu Pass is not only a high wall, extremely difficult and dangerous, but also a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Moreover, because the passage is extremely narrow in the valley, the troops in front of the wall at one time are extremely limited, and it is difficult to deploy, even if the Gongsun army is strong and thick, there is no way to stop the fierce attack.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Qin State relied on the danger of Hangu Pass to make the six teams unite to resist Qin, but they could only "go to Hangu and be defeated".
Later, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu competed to enter the Guanzhong, but Liu Bang was smart and knew that there was no future for attacking from Hangu Pass, so he made a detour to enter Wuguan.

However, Cao Pi naturally knew the importance of Wuguan, and it was impossible to repeat the mistakes of the past, and defended with heavy troops in Wuguantun, and Wuguan was surrounded by mountains, and the roads were impassable, so it was not suitable for the army to march, and this route had already been vetoed by Gongsun Bai.
In front of the east gate of Hangu Pass, the camp is continuous, and the flag is like a wave.
Gongsun Bai's army of more than 100,000 people was all gathered in the valley mouth area.
For seven days, the Gongsun army did not move, and did not launch a fierce attack on his Xiongguan as the defender Guo Huai expected, and did not even launch a decent attack a few times, each time it was a bluff, and every time it rushed to the pass, before the substantive attack was launched, it went through the motions like a tide.
In Guo Huai's view, this was nothing more than the tired tactics of the Gongsun army, just like attacking the tiger fortress, first launching many bluff attacks, and then taking advantage of the night to come to a fierce onslaught.
However, after suffering a loss, there was no last two times, Guo Huai and the deputy general Xiahou Chong Xiahou was the son of Xiahou Dun, and the two of them took turns to guard the Guanlou, no matter whether the Gongsun Army was really attacking or a false shot, they were like facing a great enemy, and they were ready to fight, so that the Gongsun Army had no chance to take advantage of it.
Sure enough, as Guo Huai expected, on the night of the tenth day, at the third watch, Gongsun Jun really pushed the cloud ladder and launched a fierce attack towards Hangu Pass.
The sound of shouting and killing, the sound of weapons colliding, the sound of drums and horns and other sounds gathered together, rippling in the valley and among the mountains, countless torches illuminated the sky brightly, and the battle at the head of the city was extremely fierce.
On the top of the gate, Guo Huai, the fierce general of the Cao army, was commanding the Cao army to release arrows, smash stones and woods, and splash boiling water at the pass, so that although the Gongsun army was offensive, it could not pass half a step beyond the city tower.
Woooooooo Just as the fierce battle was raging on the east side of the gate, a melodious and violent horn suddenly sounded from the west side of Hangu Pass, sweeping like a hurricane.
Guo Huai's face couldn't help but change greatly.
