Chapter 556: The second melee at Hulao Pass (Part 1)

 In the hearts of all the Han troops, as long as Xiang Yu did not appear, Zhang Liang would be the turtle in the urn. It would be almost impossible to escape under the pursuit of the Xiliang cavalry.

 “Did you really escape?”

 Qin Hao looked at the east with a complicated expression. After receiving two prompts from the system, Qin Hao's eyes flashed with surprise.

“Ding dong, Xiang Yu’s skill ‘Overlord’ is activated. When uniting the army to fight, it can reduce the enemy’s combat effectiveness and damage the enemy’s morale. The Han army’s combat effectiveness begins to decline.”

“Ding dong, Xiang Yu’s skill ‘Broken Army’ is activated. When commanding the cavalry, the command +5, the force +4, the morale of the whole army will increase, the combat power will increase, and the speed will increase..."

Looking at the city gate behind him, Zhang Liang felt extremely unwilling. He knew that if he didn't leave, he might not be able to leave.

But even if he escapes from Hulao Pass, can he really escape? The Xiliang cavalry will never let him, the prime minister of the Ming Dynasty, go.

 “After all the hard work, have we finally failed? We have reached a desperate situation.”

A hint of bitterness flashed across Zhang Liang's face, and then he looked to the east and said to himself: "Xiang Yu, if you hadn't come earlier, I would really kill myself."

Dian Wei saw that Zhang Liang had not responded, so he immediately picked up Zhang Liang and prepared to retreat by force, but at this moment the ground suddenly shook.

This shaking sound was like the gospel of God to the ears of all the defenders. As veterans, they all knew that the sound coming from the east was the sound of horse hooves.

A thousand meters away from the east gate of Hulao Pass, a large group of well-equipped cavalry rushed towards Hulao Pass at full speed, and the general at the head was Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu's eyes were full of fighting spirit. He raised his halberd in his hand, pointed directly at Hulao Pass, and roared: "The Overlord's Iron Cavalry."

After Xiang Yu finished speaking, the elite cavalry behind Xiang Yu raised their soldiers and roared in unison: "Dominate the world."

 “The overlord’s iron cavalry dominates the world.”

 “The overlord’s iron cavalry dominates the world…”

After the shocking sound spread back to Hulao Pass, it also calmed down the hearts of all the soldiers in the east gate, and everyone's faces were filled with joy.

Zhang Liang never expected that the reinforcements would arrive an hour early. When Dian Wei saw this, he put him down. Zhang Liang drew out the sword from his waist and shouted: "Soldiers, the reinforcements have arrived. Let's kill them." go back!"

"kill!"

The arrival of reinforcements and Zhang Liang's personal participation in the battle greatly boosted the morale of the defenders. They risked their lives to fight back and fell, which also caused great trouble to the Liangzhou army, but Li Shimin didn't care about it.

From Li Shimin's point of view, this is just a return to the past. What's more, what if enemy reinforcements arrive? The Liangzhou army has already entered Kehulao Pass, can they still be driven out by the Ming army?

As we all know, the predecessor of the Ming Army was the Yellow Turban Army, and the average combat strength of the Yellow Turban Army was weaker than that of the Han Army, so how could it be an opponent of the stronger Liangzhou Army?

As for the elite troops such as the Yellow Turban Warriors, after the Battle of Sizhou, they either died in battle or were captured. As a result, 80% of the Ming Dynasty soldiers are new recruits.

 Zhang Liang was so eager to rescue these prisoners of war because with these 100,000 veteran prisoners of war, the pressure of Ming Dynasty being surrounded by enemies on all sides would be greatly reduced.

After hearing Dongfang Zhentian’s cry, Li Shimin not only did not feel uneasy at all, but a hint of joy flashed across his face.

“He finally appeared, Xiang Yu, I will never give you any chance this time!”

 Hearing the slogan of Bawangqi coming from the east, Qin Hao's brows suddenly furrowed. During the decisive battle of the Yellow River, Xiang Yu personally led the Bawang Cavalry and killed 300,000 Han troops. From then on, the reputation of the elite Bawang Cavalry spread throughout the world.

The Overlord Cavalry is the most elite cavalry unit of the Yellow Turbans. Even at its peak, the Yellow Turbans had a million-strong army, the number of Overlord Cavalry was only maintained at 5,000, which shows that the Overlord Cavalry has strict requirements on soldiers.

During the Battle of Luoyang, Pojunying used advanced cavalry tactics and severely damaged Bawangqi under the command of Yue Fei.

 After that, Qin Hao was helpless against this elite cavalry until he used the flooding strategy to annihilate the 400,000 Yellow Turban army.

Qin Hao originally thought that this elite group had been swallowed up by the Han River, but he did not expect that it would reappear today. This shows that not all of the Bawang Cavalry were buried in the flood.

Although the Bawangqi army was not completely wiped out, more than half of it was damaged by the flood, and was later rescued by Li Mi of Yuzhou.

The flooding plan harmed more than a million lives. Although Li Mi of Yuzhou, located under the Han River, was unable to save all the affected people, he was able to save all the Yellow Turban soldiers who survived.

Li Mi, an ordinary soldier, naturally reorganized him directly, but Bawangqi was Xiang Yu's personal army, so of course he would not accept the reorganization. Li Mi, who failed to do so, did not let him return, but instead raised Bawangqi.

　　Until the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Sheng used various diplomatic methods of coercion and inducement to finally get the Overlord Cavalry back from Li Mi, and the reorganized Overlord Cavalry also had a size of 3,000 people.

Li Xiuning then said: "Second brother, the reinforcements coming this time are Bawang Cavalry. It may be difficult for ordinary Liangzhou soldiers to resist, so let's let the Feixiong Army go up."

Li Shimin thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement. Although he didn't think this team was very strong, he didn't want to give Xiang Yu any chance.

“Ding dong, Xiang Yu’s skill ‘Overlord’ is activated together with the exclusive unit Overlord Cavalry, and the Overlord Cavalry’s combat power surges again.”

 Special elite troops coupled with the effects of exclusive skills can produce better effects than two or three other skills.

 Seeing that under the leadership of Xiang Yu, the Overlord Cavalry actually suppressed the Feixiong Army, and there was a tendency to penetrate them, Li Shimin could no longer sit still.

“Yuanba, General Yuwen Chengdu, and General Li Cunxiao, the three of you immediately attack Xiang Yu. You must not give Xiang Yu any chance this time.”

Li Shimin ordered with a cold face. Although he didn't know why Xiang Yu dared to come back, he should not leave since he came back. With his absolute strength, even Xiang Yu could not escape death.

 “No!”

 After receiving the order, the three generals all rushed towards Xiang Yu. Among them, Li Yuanba was the most excited. He was not interested in being the best in the world, he just wanted to avenge his three brothers.

Zhang Liang also discovered at this time that this wave of reinforcements only had 3,000 elite cavalry, so they could arrive an hour early.

 But even the elite Overlord Cavalry, with only this small number of people, is it really possible to stop the Han army?

 The Liangzhou Army’s combat power is not weak, and they also have an advantage in terms of the number of generals!

 But when he saw the row of people behind Xiang Yu, Zhang Liang suddenly showed a look of shock, and then said to himself: "What a courage, I wish you were a man."

Li Yuanba wanted to kill Xiang Yu most urgently, so he rushed to the front, and the other two people followed him. Li Yuanba left no one behind, and he easily killed Xiang Yu's surroundings.
