Luoyang is geographically located at the junction of Hanoi County, Henan Yin, Hedong County and Hongnong County. The main area is mainly facing Henan Yin, so it is generally believed that Luoyang is located in Henan Yin.

But in a strict sense, as the imperial capital, it is an independent administrative unit. Hulao Pass is the last barrier facing southeast of Luoyang. After passing Hulao Pass, Luoyang will be there.

From August 189 to August 190, the war lasted for a whole year, and the coalition forces of the Dong Dynasty finally arrived in front of Hulao Pass.

However, compared with the mighty alliance of eighteen princes at the beginning, there were only thirteen princes appearing in front of Hulao Pass at this time (the four-person group of food, drink, play and Zhang Yang had not been present, and these five people had actually withdrawn from the coalition, but there was no announcement).

In the coalition hall, Yuan Shao asked: "The majesty of Hulao Pass is three times that of Dagu Pass and Yuyuan Pass. Do you have any good strategies to break the pass?"

As the first subordinate of Yuan Shao, Xu You stood up and gave his lord a face. He said: "My lord, my subordinates think that a strong attack is the only way to attack. Although Hulao Pass is large, it has become an isolated pass, which is not enough to protect the entire Luoyang area. There are many small roads around Hulao, so we can take a frontal main force confrontation and side infiltration offensives to make Hulao Pass a decoration. The advantage of this plan is that it can minimize casualties, and the disadvantage is that it takes a long time, at least three or five months, at most eight or nine months."

According to Xu You, the surrounding area of ​​Hulao Pass was like a leaking sieve. If it penetrated little by little, even if the Xiliang army took countermeasures, it would not be able to stop it. At most, it would only slow down the speed of the coalition forces.

None of the parties had much opinion on the strategy proposed by Xu You. This was a battle with more symbolic significance than substantial significance. No one hoped that they would suffer heavy losses.

However, the strategists under the princes still spoke out to supplement the plan to show their presence.

On the side of the Qin forces, Shi Qi was discussing matters with Ying Jiu in the hall, Huang Zhong and Hu Quan, Shi Qi and Hu Quan all expressed their opinions; as for Chen Gong's words, he knew that it was not very good for him to meet Cao Cao now, so he took the initiative to stay in the military camp.

Soon, as to which direction each army should move, there is no doubt that the strongest Qin forces of the navy were responsible for the infiltration of water roads. The entire Luoyang area was extremely developed with tributaries of the Yellow River: Yihe, Luohe, Jianhe, Qianhe, etc.

For the Xiliang army growing on horseback, it is completely difficult for them to fight water battles, especially when they face the strongest naval army in the entire "Civilization", the Daqin naval army! There is no suspense.

In addition, the generals of the Qin Navy were Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai. In terms of water war, they were two super geniuses who could rank among the top ten in the entire Three Kingdoms era at the end of the Han Dynasty.

…………………………

The armies responsible for performing infiltration missions have set out, and the battle on the front battlefield will also begin. This will be the most peak general in the entire Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period!

What the coalition forces faced was no longer Lu Bu, the peak of the emperor level, but the real holy-level general Lu Bu, who was also the veritable number one general in the world.

As for Huang Zhong, he was confident that he would suppress Lu Bu in archery, but Lu Bu's archery skills were also among the top in the world. It would be impossible to pose a life threat to Lu Bu by just archery.

In the melee confrontation, although he was reluctant to admit it, Huang Zhong, an old senior who had already broken through for a long time, could not defeat Lu Bu; similarly, it was difficult for Lu Bu to defeat Huang Zhong.

The confrontation between the two saint-level powerful men still needs a certain foundation. The Xiliang Army was the first to fight to challenge the battle and was the first warrior of Xiliang, Hua Xiong, and the peak emperor-level general.

"Report! Hua Xiong of the Xiong of the Western Liang Army called out in front of Hulao Pass and provoked our army!"

As the leader of the alliance, Yuan Shao glanced at everyone, "Hua Xiong provoked our army's majesty in public, and we must not weaken our morale; and Hua Xiong's strength is not bad, I wonder who under you can fight?"

Don’t treat Hua Xiong as a human being just because of Lu Bu’s existence. As a peak emperor-level general, Hua Xiong can hang up most of the people in the coalition. Like the two ordinary imperial-level generals under Shiwu’s command, if they dare to fight Hua Xiong, it will be almost no different from being a waste of money.

A big man standing behind Yuan Shao, holding a giant axe and over two meters tall, said in a muffled voice: "Lord, let the general go and meet this Huaxiong for a while."

This person is the famous "Hebei Unparalleled General" Pan Feng, who is "as famous" as Lu Bu. He is the first Jizhou force to surrender after Han Fu died.

Although the Romance of the Romance describes Pan Feng being easily killed by Hua Xiong, it seems that Pan Feng is still very strong now. He is a real emperor-level peak, so he must have volunteered to wash away those false humiliations.

However, Pan Feng was eager to appear, but he rescued a general named Yushe under Yuan Shu. In the Romance, Yushe was first the cannon fodder, and then Pan Feng was the foundation, and then he showed Guan Erye’s domineering aura of "killing Hua Xiong with warm wine".

Yuan Shao nodded heavily and said, "Okay! General, please, I'll wait for good news from the general in the account!"

Pan Feng left with great momentum, but Ying Jiu had already seen the ending of Pan Feng's death. Pan Feng did not die due to lack of strength, but died from the assassination of his own people.

As the only person present who is proficient in medical skills and the keen perception of medical skills brought by practicing the "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic", Ying Jiu noticed the fact that Pan Feng was poisoned, a poison that was so hidden that even famous doctors at the level of emperors could not detect. If the poison was not about to explode, even Ying Jiu would not have been able to discover it.

"Who wants to kill Pan Feng? First of all, I am excluded, Sun Jian, Gongsun Zan, Zhang Liang and Shiwu, Cao Cao is not the one who does this kind of thing, Zhang Yang has no chance, Zhang Chao, Qiao Mao, Bao Xin dare not take the risk of offending Yuan's family to do such things, Yuan Yi should be unlikely to commit crimes against his eldest son, and Huang Zu has no reason to take action throughout the whole process.

So is it Yuan Shu or Yuan Shao?

Yuan Shu can definitely do it with his back-punching elder brother, which is a great pleasure in his life; and Yuan Shao himself may also do such a thing. Although Pan Feng has defected to him, the situation in Jizhou is complicated. Maybe a dead Pan Feng is more beneficial than a living Pan Feng?"

Ying Jiu had seen through everything, but he was not so kind to save Pan Feng.

Hello General Pan, goodbye General Pan!

…………

Pan Feng left for less than three minutes, and a messenger stumbled in and said, "General Pan was killed by Hua Xiong within ten rounds, and Hua Xiong was still calling for the battle."

Everyone was shocked, "What!"

Even if Pan Feng's strength is inferior to Hua Xiong, he can escape with his peak emperor level. What's going on?

Little did Hua Xiong know that Hua Xiong was also very confused now. When Pan Feng first fought with him, his aura was not weaker than him, but after three or four moves, Pan Feng seemed to have a physical problem and his breath suddenly became disordered. Of course, Hua Xiong would not wait until Pan Feng adjusts before fighting him, but instead took advantage of his illness to kill him.
