Chapter 172: Pinghu Mountain

At that time, Zhang Chen and the other two were probably still preparing for the task.

Although the current Chang'an imperial palace group is not as grand as Luoyang, the solemnity and solemnity of Weiyang Palace make Zhang Chen respect him.

The Taishi Mansion occupies a large area to the west of Weiyang Palace, which is part of the original emperor's harem and royal garden. Now it has become Dong Zhuo's private territory.

Finally, Zhang Chen, who had been in Hulao Pass for a month and successfully completed the task, had to meet Dong Zhuo again. To be honest, Zhang Chen felt a little nervous.

......

Fifteen miles southeast of Sishuiguan, Pinghu Mountain.

According to legend, there was a terrifying giant tiger on the top of this mountain. Every night, it would go down the mountain to devour the livestock of the surrounding village chiefs, and even villagers. Until later, a master passed by here and killed the giant tiger. The villagers were also passed down from generation to generation as a commemoration. This place is also called Pinghu Mountain.

These are legends from hundreds of years ago. No one knows which one is true or not, but the war on Pinghu Mountain is really happening.

On Pinghu Mountain, the alliance army dominated by Sun Teng's army and supplemented by Yuan Shu's army are still fighting.

Today, Dong Zhuojun's offensive began again.

On Pinghu Mountain, the Allies built two lines of defense.

The first wall was just a fence made of a small number of huge corners and a large number of cross-bowls. This was the limit that the Allies could do. Before building the wall, they used the flesh and blood of the soldiers to block the fierce attack of the Western Liang Iron Cavalry.

As long as you bypass these giant corners, some other chaotic cavalry could have completely broken through. If the Allies had not swear to defend this defensive line with the advantage of numbers, this defensive line would have been broken under the Western Liang Iron Cavalry.

Just this month when Zhang Chen was guarding Hulao Pass, the war at Sishui Pass did not stop at all.

Within the first ten days, Dong Zhuo's sixth brother Wang Yu took over the commander of Xu Rong, who was previously injured by Sun Teng's "hidden weapon", and led 12,000 cavalry and 18,000 infantry, a total of 30,000 people and the army led by Dong Min to encircle and suppress the Allies led by Yuan Shu.

Later, Xu Rong's injuries had just healed a little, so he brought two thousand cavalry and three thousand infantry to support him, and the command was returned to Xu Rong's hands.

This small Pinghu Mountain naturally became the decisive battle between Dong Zhuo's army in Sishui Pass and the Nanlu Allied Army branches. However, the combat power of the two armies was a huge gap of 10,000 people, and Sun Teng could only defend Pinghu Mountain to the death and wait for reinforcements.

At the beginning, Sun Teng personally took the battle and led thousands of Allied troops to capture a large occupied area outside Pinghu Mountain. At that time, the commander of Dong Zhuo's army was still Wang Yu, so it was normal that he was repelled by the sudden attack of the Allied forces.

Sun Teng did this just to give the army on Pinghu Mountain time and seize the opportunity to build a defense line.

But the good times did not last long. The next day, the counterattack of Dong's army began, especially the attack of Huaxiong's army, which made the Allied troops miserable. Sun Teng could only lead his troops to resist Huaxiong's army and barely stood firm.

The Allied forces suffered huge casualties, but for the sake of the defense line in the rear, Sun Teng ordered the entire army to defend the defense line at all costs. Yu She of Yuan Shu's army also obeyed Sun Teng and led the three thousand headquarters to fully support Sun Teng.

Later, Xu Rong's return forced the Allies to retreat-

"General! Hua Xiong is here again!" A Jiangdong army, who had already been damaged in battle and was covered in blood, came to report to Sun Teng.
