Chapter 283: Xiang Yu came to challenge alone
Hulao Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is a famous dangerous fortress in the world. After solving the problem of catapults, the task of defending the city has become simpler.
Regarding the issue of defending the city, Qin Hao did not need to worry too much. All he had to do was wait for Ran Min to **** the catapult over and then hand it over to his father who was responsible for defending the city. He was more concerned about the 50,000 cavalry. Integration issues.
Of the 50,000 cavalrymen under Qin Hao, 20,000 are from the three forces. The cooperation between them is naturally far less tacit than the Yanmen Army, so it needs to be rectified.
Before leaving, Qin Hao handed over 20,000 cavalry to Lu Bu for training. The reason why he did not hand them over to his own people also showed that Qin Hao did not want to interfere too much with other forces, and Lu Bu was indeed very experienced in training cavalry.
Sure enough, after learning that Qin Hao had asked Lu Bu to command 20,000 cavalry, at least Dong Zhuo was completely relieved and asked Hua Xiong to cooperate fully.
And after a month of training by Lu Bu, the 20,000 cavalrymen who had been cobbled together have now been twisted into a rope and can shoulder the important task of cooperating with the Yanmen cavalry in large-scale battles.
Cavalry is the largest force in the counterattack in this battle, so it is naturally the top priority. In addition to cavalry matters, there are many trivial matters to be discussed in the pre-war meeting.
Just in the middle of the meeting, a spy rushed in and said in a panic: "Your lord, Xiang, Xiang Yu, he is here again, here, here..."
Qin Wen frowned slightly and said calmly: "What are you doing?"
Qin Wen had not experienced the previous battle for Hulao Pass, so he did not understand why the former defenders of Hulao Pass under his command were so afraid of Xiang Yu.
The general's indifference seemed to have infected the soldiers, and they no longer even trembled when speaking.
“Xiang Yu challenged in front of the pass.”
“How many people did he bring here?”
“One person and one rider.”
Qin Wen's face turned cold, and all the generals were in an uproar.
To dare to challenge a man with just one horse is to treat the 100,000 troops in the pass as if they were nothing. It’s a slap in the face. Why are you so arrogant?
Hang Yu's title as the number one Yellow Turban general, coupled with the fact that one man escaped from Hulao Pass, made everyone present know Xiang Yu's bravery.
It is one thing to know, and another thing to take it seriously or not. After all, no matter how strong you are, can you be stronger than an army of thousands?
Other than Qin Hao, no one present, including Qin Wen, probably thought that Xiang Yu could do anything by himself.
Qin Hao frowned. He knew that Xiang Yu would not do useless things. The reason why he rode alone was just to force the defenders to come out and fight against the generals.
After all, he came to challenge alone. If the defenders did not dare to fight, first of all, Qin Wen, as the commander-in-chief, would be ridiculed by the world, and then the morale of the defenders in the pass would also plummet.
So Xiang Yu used Yang Muse, and the defenders of Hulao Pass had to go into battle.
But because of this, Qin Hao was a little unsure of Xiang Yu's intentions.
Xiang Yu is indeed strong enough, but no matter how strong he is, he is only one person. Wasn't he defeated by Qin Hao using group fighting tactics before?
The current lineup of generals in Hulao Pass is exaggerated and scary. If there is a group fight, even if there is no "Destiny" to support the scene, Xiang Yu will definitely be defeated. And if Ran Min is also there, it is still unclear whether Xiang Yu can escape.
It is obviously impossible to win, but why do you still challenge it?
Is it just to kill a few generals and show off their power?
But to the overall situation, it doesn’t matter at all?
What does Xiang Yu want to do?
Qin Hao felt that there must be an expert behind Xiang Yu, which made him unable to guess Xiang Yu's intentions. However, Qin Hao knew that Xiang Yu's plan must be huge.
"I've heard that Xiang Yu is arrogant for a long time, and today the results are just like the rumors." Ding Yuan said calmly.
"He's just a defeated general, how dare he be so presumptuous!" Liu Yu shouted coldly: "You really don't know how high the sky is." Dong Zhuo was not angry, but laughed and said: "It seems that the last failure did not let Xiang Yu learn from it. Lesson learned.”
“Then let him be taught another lesson!” Liu Yu said coldly.
…
Between the three major princes, you said one of me and me, and the text of Xiang Yu is worthless, and when he saw this situation, Qin Hao's mouth was slightly pumped.
It's really like you won the battle.
However, Xiang Yu's extremely arrogant attitude really angered most of the generals present. Lu Bu was the first to stand up and said: "Grand Commander, Lu Bu is willing to come out and fight Xiang Yu!"
The "Thirteen Overlord's Styles" practiced by Lu Bu were derived from Xiang Yu's "Overlord's Halberd", so he was very eager to fight Xiang Yu to prove his halberd skills.
“Guan Yu is willing to fight.”
Guan Sheng is still lying on the hospital bed recovering from his injuries, but now that Xiang Yu comes to his door, Guan Yu naturally wants to seek justice for his younger brother.
“Zhang Fei…”
“Hua Xiong…”
“Li Jue…”
…
Qin Hao looked at these generals who took the initiative to fight with some annoyance. It didn't matter that Lu Bu and Guan Yu wanted to fight Xiang Yu. After all, their strength was there, but why did people like Guo Si, Wei Xu and others join in the fun?
These people are afraid, no, not afraid, that they will never survive a round if they meet Xiang Yu.
In the final analysis, Xiang Yu came alone so that the generals would not feel the threat from him. At the same time, they also felt that Xiang Yu was dead this time, so they all wanted to use Xiang Yu as a ladder to become famous.
Zhao Yun originally wanted to ask for a fight, but when he saw that there was no Yanmen Army among the generals who asked for a fight, he was immediately confused and at the same time resisted his desire to ask for a fight.
Qin Wen was frightened when he saw that his generals were so inactive. From this, it can be seen that Xiang Yu is indeed not that easy to deal with.
Seeing that the willingness of the generals present to fight was so high, Qin Wen was not able to appease everyone's enthusiasm, so he had no choice but to respond: "In that case, you can go with me to meet Xiang Yu!"
As soon as Qin Wen finished speaking, Qin Hao immediately interjected: "Father, don't be anxious, there is something fishy about this matter. We just got the intelligence from the spies, saying that Xiang Yu led 30,000 vanguards to clear the way for the following Yellow Turban army, and Xiang Yu alone Riding in front of the pass to challenge, I’m afraid there’s a conspiracy involved!”
Qin Hao knew that he could not stop this battle, and he even wanted to use Xiang Yu's help to weaken Dong Zhuo's power. But in the end, this decisive battle still relied on the power of Dong Zhuo and others.
Among the people present, only Qin Hao had fought against Xiang Yu, and even won. If Xiang Yu really beat up Dong Zhuo, and Qin Hao didn't even warn him, then Qin Hao would be the villain.
"What kind of conspiracy can Xiang Yu achieve by himself?" Dong Zhuo said disapprovingly, and the generals who asked for battle also agreed.
"Xiang Yu is not that easy to deal with." Qin Hao said seriously: "It's never a big mistake to be careful."
Although he said this, Qin Hao had actually made up his mind to use Xiang Yu's help to weaken Dong Zhuo's strength this time. It would be best to kill Li Shimin directly.
The power currently controlled by Dong Zhuo's men is indeed too powerful, making Qin Hao even afraid.
