Chapter 608 Zhang Huai killed Meng Shuang, which surprised the generals who were watching the battle behind, Xiong Fei also widened his eyes, and subconsciously clenched his fists, wanting to go to the battlefield to fight Zhang Huai in person.
At this time, another Huan general suddenly roared, rushed out of the battle, rode his horse to the battlefield, and fought with Zhang Huai.
This Huan general's force is not weak, but it is not much stronger than Meng Shuang, and he and Zhang Huai have been fighting for twenty rounds and already feel very difficult.
He rolled his eyes, shook his sword, and then turned his horse's head and was defeated in his own position.
Zhang Huai was hitting Xing's head, so he was willing to let him go back, urging the horse to chase after him.
Hearing the sound of horses' hooves behind him, the Huan general secretly rejoiced, he hung up the long knife in his hand, quickly took off the bow and arrows, without warning, turned around violently, and shot three spiritual arrows at Zhang Huai who was chasing after him.
These three spirit arrows were fast and sudden, Zhang Huai was inexperienced and had no precautions, so he instinctively screamed and hurriedly waved his knife to block.
With two crisp sounds, Zhang Huai hit two spirit arrows, but the last spirit arrow failed to open and hit him in the face.
Hearing a click, Zhang Huai fell down in response, flipped off his back from the war horse, and fell to the ground without moving.
Seeing this, the general couldn't help laughing, grabbed the reins of the war horse, and then turned the horse back, put down the bow and arrow and lifted the spirit knife again, while sneering and saying: "Even if you are strong in spiritual martial arts, you are not the opponent of this general."
While speaking, he came to Zhang Huai who was lying on the ground, and the spirit knife was raised, making a gesture to chop down, but at this moment, Zhang Huai, who was originally lying on the ground, suddenly jumped up, and the spirit knife in his hand flew out of his hand and shot straight into the chest of the general.
Poof, a knife that surprised everyone, Na Huan didn't even have time to react, and was hit in the chest by this flying knife, and the blade pierced through his chest and poked out from behind.
General Huan opened his eyes in disbelief, and it was only now that he could see clearly that the spirit armor on Zhang Huai's face had been shattered, but the arrow was held in his mouth, and it turned out that although his last arrow hit Zhang Huai, he was bitten by him.
The body shook on the horse a few times, and Nahuan rolled off the horse sideways, his limbs twitched a few times, and then he stopped moving.
Zhang Huai turned his head sideways and spit out the arrows in his mouth, walked to the corpse on the ground, pulled out his steel knife fiercely, and then, he got back on the horse, looked around the Huan army camp opposite with the steel knife, and asked loudly: "Who else is not afraid of death who dares to come out and fight in the next battle."
Zhang Huai killed two Huan generals in a row, which can be described as a shocking skill, and also made the Huan soldiers and generals on the opposite side tremble, and the back spine was cold, and people looked at each other, and no one dared to rush out of battle anymore.
Xiong Fei was furious, screamed strangely, and was about to go into battle again, but Xiong Yi grabbed his brother, shook his head slightly, and persuaded in a low voice: "Why should my army go to entangle with this thief, we should attack the city immediately, and take Xihuan Pass first."
Xiong Yi's Lingwu is not very good, but he is well-informed, the Lingwu of the opposite general is strong, and there is a tendency to become more and more courageous, he does not think that his eldest brother can easily win in the past, in case there is a loss, injured in the hands of the An general, not only greatly lose face, but also affect their own siege warfare, the gain outweighs the loss.
Xiong Fei knew that his brother's mind had always been shrewd, far better than himself, so he had always obeyed Xiong's righteous words.
Hearing his brother say this at this time, Xiong Fei even though he was unwilling, but he still endured it, he snorted, cheered up, and said to the surrounding generals: "Pass my general's order, the whole army will attack the city, and take Xihuan Pass for me."
Under Xiong Fei's order, the former soldiers of the Huan Army went out in the formation of a fish scale formation and launched a strong attack on Xihuan Pass.
Since the Xihuan Pass is the last pass, the defenders in the pass will inevitably resist to the death, Xiong Fei and Xiong Yi brothers have a hunch that this battle will be more difficult to fight than the first two levels, but they didn't expect that the defense of the Xihuan Pass is thousands of times stronger than the two of them expected.
As the Huan army camp entered the 100 paces before the pass, the defenders at the head of the city began to shoot arrows.
At that moment, it was as if a dark cloud had risen from the city of Xihuan Pass, and dense arrows flew into the air, covering the sky and the sun, making the people below feel as if the sky had suddenly darkened.
Jingle the arrows fell into the camp of the Huan army like raindrops, hitting the shields that people put up, crackling, many arrows passed through the gaps in the shields, and shot and injured the Huan soldiers below, only to see that in the camp of the Huan army, from time to time someone screamed and fell to the ground, but once the person fell, the companions around him did not even have a chance to rescue, and the body of the injured person was immediately covered by the rain of arrows, as if a layer of black grass grew on the body.
This is only the first round of arrow formation, and next, the second and third rounds of arrows shot at the West Hustle Pass seem to be endless, even if the advancing Huan army has put up a tight shield array, but there are still soldiers in groups of soldiers falling under the chaotic arrows.
Xiong Fei and Xiong Yi, who were in command in the rear, had changed their faces greatly, and his two brothers had fought with the An army no less than dozens of times, but they had never seen the An army's arrow array so powerful, dense and terrifying, continuous, wave after wave, it was really like a rain of arrows in the sky.
"Why is the security army in the Xihuo Pass so powerful, and it is difficult for the officers and men of our army to even advance to the front of the pass," Xiong Fei frowned, and the reins in his palm made a rattling sound.
Xiong Yiyi's face was solemn, he looked at the defenders on the opposite side of the city, and muttered: "Big brother, I suddenly feel that the defenders guarding the Xihuan Pass are not like the An army, but the terrifying arrow array of the Feng Army, we have only seen it when we fought with the Feng Army."
Hearing this, Xiong Fei gasped.
Feng Jun exclaimed: "Brother, do you think it is impossible for the Feng Army to be in Xihuan Pass, Feng Jun is obviously following us, how could he suddenly run in front of us and enter Xihuan Pass" "Yes, I also hope that this is impossible" Xiong Yi sighed secretly, but looking at the arrow array in Xihuan Pass, he had to have such doubts.
The Huan army could not advance when it advanced to the Xihuan Pass thirty steps before the pass, and when it arrived, the defenders' arrow arrays became more ferocious and fierce, and even the soldiers with shields on their shoulders could often be overwhelmed by the overwhelming array of arrows to the ground.
As the casualties continued to increase, the Huan army in front began to have a cowardly mentality, and people involuntarily retreated backwards.
They didn't get close to the enemy's city, and they were only about to be driven back halfway, which had never happened in the previous battles of the Huan army.
Xiong Fei was furious when he saw this, and immediately sent out all the personal guards around him, so that they could supervise the battle on the battlefield.
Under his high pressure, the frightened Huan soldiers could only push forward with their heads and gritted their teeth, and at this time, they had to pay a huge price for every step they pushed, sacrificing the lives of hundreds of soldiers.
The battle has been fought for more than an hour, and the soldiers of the Huan army barely advanced to the city of Xihuan Pass, and then, people set up cloud ladders and launched hand-to-hand combat on Xihuan Pass.
There is no long-range assistance of the trebuchet, and there is no help from large weapons such as arrow towers and rushing cars, the soldiers of the Huan army are purely relying on manpower to attack upward, of course, if the defenders are not strong, they may be able to frighten the other party with such a strong attack, but if the defenders are a strong army that is brave and good at fighting, such an attack is undoubtedly suicide.
Xiong Yi guessed correctly, at this time, among the defenders guarding Xihuan Pass, in addition to a large number of security troops, there were also plain troops who had been waiting here for a long time.
As early as when the Huan army had not yet marched to Kongsang Mountain, the Plains Army had quietly moved here, and consolidated the city defense in the Xihuan Pass, hoarded materials, grain and grass, and fought a protracted battle with the Huan army here.
The Huan army does not have any large-scale siege weapons, relying on manpower to attack, in the eyes of the Plains Army, this is simply a stupid thing, not to mention that the Huan army is not much to attack now, even if it is ten times more, they are not afraid, and they are still confident that the enemy army will be blocked out of the pass.
When the Huan army climbed up along the ladder, the rolling wood and stones above the head were as many as hailstones, and the heads and faces were smashed down, which was also mixed with countless arrows, and the Huan soldiers climbed up a group, and were beaten down a group, and under the city wall, the corpses of the Huan soldiers were already piled up.
The battle between the two sides lasted from morning to evening, and the Huan army not only failed to take the first step in the Xihuan Pass, but suffered heavy casualties of its own.
After a fierce battle, not to mention the achievements, and the loss of more than 20,000 soldiers, Xiong Fei and Xiong Yi couldn't even raise their heads when they saw Lu Chen, Jin Sheng, and Jiang Yang.
After all, the Xiong brothers are their subordinates, Lu Chen is not good at acting too protective, and reprimanded the two of them in public, and then made a plan with Jin Sheng and Jiang Yang, and decided to wait until dawn tomorrow to attack the city with his main army.

Xihuo Pass is the last obstacle for them to return to their homeland, even if they use a lot of people, they must knock down Xihuo Pass.
The next day, the siege battle under the personal command of the three commanders Lu Chen, Jin Sheng, and Jiang Yang began.
The strong attack of the 600,000-strong army made it impossible to see anything else except the Huan army outside Xihuan Pass.
As far as the eye can see, everywhere you look, there are soldiers and horses of the Huan army, overwhelming, boundless, and before you start to attack, this terrifying momentum alone is enough to make any opponent heartbroken.
The security army in the Xihuan Pass was already pale with fright, and their legs were trembling, if it weren't for the presence of the Plains Army, they would have already switched off and surrendered at this time.
The Anjun army is cowardly, and the mood of the officers and men of the Plains Army is also very nervous, in the face of so many enemies, it is absolutely deceptive to say that they are not afraid, but the fundamental difference between the Feng Army and the Anjun is that the latter is often chaotic without a fight when facing a strong enemy, while the former can be stimulated to a stronger combat effectiveness in the face of a strong enemy
