Three Kingdoms: I, Liu Feng, do not want to die

Chapter 236 At Hangu Pass, Liu Feng slays Xiahou Shang

Hangu Pass.

Liu Feng led his troops to the scene.

Due to the terrain, the army of over 10,000 men was spread out far apart.

Close it.

Cao Pi, Cao Zhen, and the others all turned pale.

"Is this all the troops Liu Feng has?"

Cao Pi's eyes widened as he looked at Xiahou Shang, who had retreated from Mianchi, as if to say: Are you kidding me?
After Xiahou Shang concluded that Liu Bei would personally lead the expedition, Cao Pi adopted the opinions of his civil and military officials and formulated a response strategy based on the principle of erring on the side of caution.

even.

Cao Pi also deployed 30,000 troops at Hangu Pass.

result.

Liu Feng led only ten thousand men to Hangu Pass.

This made Cao Pi and Cao Zhen feel a sense of unreality.

If we're going to attack Hangu Pass, we should at least muster an army of 100,000!

They dared to swagger around Hangu Pass with just over ten thousand men, as if Hangu Pass, which is supposed to be an impregnable fortress, was just for show.
"Your Majesty, I am incompetent."

Xiahou Shang blushed and, instead of making excuses, directly admitted that he was no good.

Just as I was feeling down.

Then Liu Feng led more than ten riders to approach Hangu Pass.

"The King of Yan of the Great Han Dynasty, General Liu Feng, is here. Who is guarding the pass?" Liu Feng spurred his horse and raised his whip, his voice booming like a bell, full of vigor and high spirits.

Cao Pi felt his anger rising rapidly.

How arrogant!

This is Hangu Pass!

It's one thing for Liu Feng to come and show off with over ten thousand men, but he actually dared to approach the gate and shout at us with only a dozen or so riders.

Such deceit towards me is intolerable!

Cao Pi angrily shouted, "How dare that old shoe seller's adopted son invade my territory?"

Upon hearing Cao Pi's shouts and curses, Liu Feng was not angry but delighted, and laughed loudly, exclaiming: "So it is Cao Zihuan, who murdered his wife and suspected his son!"

I heard that you were bewitched by several beautiful concubines, so I ordered the death of my wife Zhen Mi. I was also afraid that Zhen Mi's son Cao Rui would take power and avenge his mother, so I hesitated to make Cao Rui the crown prince.

Murdering one's wife and suspecting one's own children—that's worse than being a beast.

Liu Feng's attendants, a dozen or so riders, shouted in unison, "Murdering your wife and suspecting your son, you are worse than a beast!"
Cao Pi was so angry that his face turned red and his neck bulged, but he couldn't refute it.

When faced with irrefutable facts, the more you try to refute them, the more you'll fall into a low position.

Seeing Cao Pi's discomfiture, Cao Zhen shouted angrily, "Liu Feng, is all you can do is talk? If you have the guts, come and attack the pass!"

Liu Feng looked closely and recognized Cao Zhen shouting from the gate. He couldn't help but laugh: "Cao Zidan, have you been in Luoyang for too long? Has your brain become as stupid as Cao Zihuan, who murdered his wife and suspected his son?"

Hangu Pass is a natural barrier, and I am not stupid enough to be foolish enough to directly attack it. On the contrary, you, Cao Zidan, dared to confront me head-on back when we were in Nanxiang.

I thought you, Cao Zidan, were a hero of our time, but now you only dare to cower in Hangu Pass and don't even have the courage to go out and fight?
Come come.

Fight me alone!
As for Cao Zihuan, that beastly, hypocritical emperor who murdered his wife and doubted his children, you should just ignore him.

You and I are both adopted children, so it's only right to determine who is superior!

When it comes to verbal sparring, Liu Feng believes he has never lost to anyone.

Ostensibly, he was laughing at Cao Zhen, but in reality, he was satirizing Cao Pi.

"Murdering his wife and suspecting his son, he was worse than a beast." This title was one that Cao Pi would have to carry forever.

Cao Zhen glanced furtively at Cao Pi, whose face was flushed, neck thickened, and eyes were ashen, and felt a chill run down his spine. He shouted again, "Liu Feng, stop your arrogance! If you dare not attack the pass, leave immediately!"

Liu Feng beckoned: "So what if I'm arrogant? Come and hit me! I love seeing your cowardly, angry, and helpless look!"

Cao Zhen clenched his fist.

Liu Feng's hooking gesture, coupled with his infuriating words, made Cao Zhen's mentality somewhat shattered.

Having finally managed to suppress his reason, Cao Zhen decided not to speak to Liu Feng.

With Hangu Pass in our hands, what's there to fear from Liu Feng?
Cao Pi and Cao Zhen at Hangu Pass refused to leave the pass.

Liu Feng was not discouraged.

Before arriving at Hangu Pass, Liu Feng was well aware that Hangu Pass could not be forcibly breached.

The attack on Hangu Pass during the Warring States period lasted three years and reportedly resulted in the deaths of a million people before the pass was finally breached.

Liu Feng doesn't have that many lives to fill.

same.

Liu Feng also disagreed with the approach of using human lives to achieve success.

Kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred.

It's not military strategy.

It damages one's own foundation.

To break through Hangu Pass, we must lure the general guarding Hangu Pass out of the pass.

The key is how to entice them.

By evening.

A bonfire was lit below Hangu Pass, and a stage was set up in front of the pass.

The stage was positioned at a perfect distance, neither too far nor too near, just out of the arrows of Hangu Pass, yet still allowing the soldiers of the puppet Wei forces on Hangu Pass to hear the actors' performances.

As the music and dance began, the performer's highly distinctive voice rang out.

Amplified by a makeshift loudspeaker set up on the stage, the opera singing clearly reached the ears of the Wei soldiers at Hangu Pass.

All that could be heard was the prelude of gongs and drums, followed by the tune of a wooden clapper.

An actor dressed as Cao Pi paces back and forth, (singing): Sitting on the dragon throne in Luoyang, Cao Zihuan is ruthless! (speaking): I am the false emperor of Wei, yet I have committed two beastly acts!

The gong clanged loudly, and the crowd chorused: Hey! What a beastly act!
Then the actor covered his face with his sleeve, pretending to be a woman, (singing): My wife Zhen Mi, her beauty is like that of a celestial being. (Spoken) I suspect her of infidelity, so I give her a cup of poison!

The gongs clanged loudly, and the crowd exclaimed in shock: "Oh dear! My own flesh and blood are weeping uncontrollably, while my beautiful concubine hides daggers in her smile!"

Subsequently.

The actor changed his expression, feigning suspicion and fear, looking around. (Singing): My dear son, Rui'er, is a clever boy, yet he insists on seeking revenge for his mother! (Spoken) I'm so frightened that I can't sleep at night, and I dare not pass on the throne to him!

The gong clanged loudly, and the crowd laughed mockingly: "Ha ha ha! Suspicious and paranoid, they scurried about like rats!"
The drums beat urgently, and everyone clapped their hands in unison. (Chorus): Murdering one's wife and suspecting one's son is a heinous crime, worse than a beast like Cao Zihuan! Murdering one's wife and suspecting one's son is a heinous crime, worse than a beast like Cao Zihuan!
The actor points to Hangu Pass and sings passionately: "General Liu beats the war drums, exposing your shame before Hangu Pass! (Spoken) How can a false emperor be worthy to sit on the throne? The mighty men of Han roar to the heavens!"
The drums thundered, and the soldiers raised their spears and shouted: Roar! Roar! Roar!
At first, the soldiers of the puppet Wei regime on the gate tower didn't understand, but after the actors on the stage sang the song repeatedly, even the most dull-witted soldiers understood what was being sung.

"It doesn't make sense! It doesn't make sense!"

Cao Pi was furious.

The opera sang on the closed stage all night, directly bringing to life the story of Cao Pi murdering his wife and doubting his son. It was as if Cao Pi was being slapped in the face repeatedly!
Throughout the entire night, the Wei soldiers on duty upstairs had almost memorized their lines.

Cao Pi's anger was also growing day by day!
This is not over yet.

On the second day.

Liu Feng changed the script again.

This time, the script doesn't involve murdering one's wife and suspecting one's children.

Instead, he killed the enemy and imprisoned his brother.

Then an actor dressed as Cao Pi appeared, his brocade robe askew, carrying a wine pot as he staggered out.

(Singing) Cao family has a son named Cang Shu, who at the age of five weighed an elephant and showed great intelligence! (Spoken) But Cang Shu is good at speaking, and his father's heart is so favored that it is as heavy as a mountain!
(He flicks his sleeve, throws the pot, and his face turns sinister.)

The gong clanged loudly, and the crowd shouted in unison: Hey! Press down on my head!
The actor then pretended to grind medicine, peeking around.

(Singing): How can I allow a mere child to seize the throne? A dose of poison will eliminate any future trouble! (Spoken) My father cries out to Heaven in anguish, while I secretly rejoice, unseen by anyone!
The cymbals rang out sharply, and the soldiers cried out in alarm: "Oh no! The child prodigy has died from the poisoned wine!"

The actor, dressed in armor, impersonates Cao Zhang, brandishing a halberd and roaring angrily.

(Singing): Ren Cheng's valiant yellow-bearded son, on the battlefield, spear in hand, repelled thousands of troops! (Spoken) Brother, fearing his martial prowess that shook the court, he is imprisoned behind high walls in golden shackles and jade chains!
(He appears to be bound by chains, struggles, and falls to the ground.)

The crowd stamped their feet and sneered: Hahaha! The younger brother is now a prisoner!

The drumbeats were like a torrential downpour, and the crowd gathered around Hangu Pass, singing in unison: "Killing and imprisoning his brother, Cao Zihuan is a heartless and ruthless man! Imprisoning and killing his brother, he is a heartless and ruthless man, how can this false emperor be worthy of sitting on the golden throne!"
The soldiers below the pass raised their torches and roared in unison: "Slay the false emperor! Restore order!"
"Damn it! I can't stand it!"

Cao Pi was furious.

First he murdered his wife and suspected his son, and now he has killed the enemy and imprisoned his brother.

All you do is expose my weaknesses, huh?
If you're so capable, then try to clear the level. Stop with the underhanded tricks!
If it weren't for Cao Zhen and Xiahou Shang's strong persuasion and dissuasion, Cao Pi would have personally taken a spear and gone out of the pass to take Liu Feng's head.

however.

Liu Feng's script is not finished yet.

After performing a script about killing and imprisoning one's brother for most of the day, a new script, "against human ethics," has emerged.

All that could be heard was the mournful strains of the erhu, and the actor playing Liu Xie staggered forward.

The actor, his voice trembling, sings: "The abdication edict is written in blood and tears, my two daughters were brought to Wei and suffered horrific torture! (Spoken) The emperor forcibly took the emperor's two beloved daughters, and his niece served him, disrupting the established order."

He threw his shoes to the ground, covered his face, and wept bitterly.

The crowd spat: Bah! This is inhumane!

The actor, dressed as Cao Pi, embraces two women and sings: "Beautiful concubines are hidden in the Bronze Sparrow Terrace, my father's concubines serve me with pleasure!" (Spoken) "The late king's concubines were all charming, but today they all belong to Cao Zihuan!"

He flicked his sleeve, revealing his mourning clothes underneath, and the cymbals rang out shrilly, causing an uproar among the crowd.

The actors tore up the banners and scattered paper money. (Chorus): He disregarded loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, and righteousness; he bullied his sister and tyrannized his mother, committing heinous crimes! If you ask where this man can be found? (Spoken) Cao Cao, the beast at Hangu Pass!
The soldiers roared, their voices shaking the heavens: "Heaven will punish the traitor Cao!"
"Send troops! Send troops! Send troops for me! I want to kill Liu Feng, that dog!" Cao Pi's eyes were bloodshot. Liu Feng had dug up his dark history one by one like a theatrical performance, as if he were being made to walk naked through a bustling market, leaving everyone to see him naked.

Cao Zhen and Xiahou Shang were also dumbfounded by Liu Feng's provocation, which resembled a gangster fight.

You shouldn't insult someone by revealing their weaknesses, and you shouldn't hit someone in the face. You're supposed to be a dignified General of the Prince of Yan, so can you please stop doing such thuggish things?
The door is closed and then opened.

Enraged, Cao Pi ignored the earnest advice of Cao Zhen and Xiahou Shang and insisted on going out of the pass to fight Liu Feng.

Upon seeing the Wei army emerge from the pass, the actors and soldiers on the stage shouted in unison: "Cao Pi is very angry, the consequences will be severe, get out of here when the wind blows."

Cao Pi deeply resented Liu Feng, and he also deeply resented the stage below the pass.

The first Cao general, having received Cao Pi's military order, immediately led his men to dismantle the stage.

"You can't hold back anymore? I still have more than a dozen scripts to be released."

Looking at the Wei army that had stormed out of the pass in anger, Liu Feng had a mocking smile on his lips.

If they were to launch a direct assault on Hangu Pass, Liu Feng's more than 10,000 troops would be wiped out before they could even exhaust the arrows available at Hangu Pass.

However, if it were a battle outside the pass, even if 100,000 Wei troops attacked, Liu Feng would dare to lead his 10,000 Han soldiers to fight back and forth among the 100,000 Wei troops.

"Retreat ten miles."

Instead of engaging the Wei army directly, Liu Feng chose to retreat.

This place is too close to Hangu Pass. Even if the Wei army is defeated, they can easily retreat into Hangu Pass.

To annihilate the Wei army that had broken out of the pass, Liu Feng needed to find a new battlefield.

"Your Majesty, Liu Feng's withdrawal of troops may be part of a treacherous scheme," Cao Zhen urged urgently.

Liu Feng's strategy of luring the enemy deep into his territory was too obvious; Cao Zhen, with his military expertise, could easily see through it.

however.

Although Cao Zhen could see through it, he was not the commander of Hangu Pass.

Cao Pi's eyes were bloodshot: "How could I not know about military affairs? So what if Liu Feng has an ambush? I will turn the tables on him. Zidan, you lead the troops behind. If you see Liu Feng's ambush appear, you can outflank them."

Cao Zhen was dumbfounded.

Will it count?

The best strategy is to simply defend the pass; why take the risk of playing along?

Despite Cao Zhen's repeated pleas, Cao Pi remained obstinate, activating his unique skill: "The Emperor Does Not Listen."

Without any choice.

Cao Zhen had no choice but to accept the military order and lead his troops out of the pass. "The usurper of Han, in the end, couldn't hold back any longer."

Cao Pi's reaction was exactly what Liu Feng had anticipated.

The "mockery" from the opera troupe was merely a contributing factor.

The fundamental reason lies in the fact that Cao Pi suffered repeated defeats in recent years, while his prestige grew day by day.

Now, Liu Feng has bullied Cao Pi to the gates of Hangu Pass, directly crushing Cao Pi's prestige underfoot.

If Cao Pi cannot defeat Liu Feng, he will have to consider moving the capital.

however.

Once the capital is moved, Cao Pi will not only lose his prestige, but his control over the various prefectures and counties will also become weaker.

Moving the capital would mean acknowledging that Wei was inferior to Han in terms of political power.

Therefore, it would not be surprising if Liu Feng were to launch a long-range attack and directly conquer Youzhou.

During the Battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao was stronger than Cao Cao, and a large number of people secretly wrote letters to Yuan Shao to surrender.

During the Battle of Red Cliffs, Cao Cao was strong and Wu was weak, and a large number of people advocated surrender.

Everyone comes here seeking stability and wealth; not everyone is willing to risk their lives for the royal family. For most people, they will follow whoever is stronger.

Therefore.

Rather than saying that Liu Feng angered Cao Pi by using the stage, it would be more accurate to say that Liu Feng used the stage to connect Cao Pi's resentment and fear.

This caused Cao Pi's hatred for Liu Feng to surge to its extreme, causing him to lose his normal rationality.

"Form ranks and counterattack."

A decisive and calm military order was issued.

The Han army stopped fleeing and turned around to form ranks, staring at the Wei army like bloodthirsty beasts.

The Han army soldiers lacked confidence in attacking the strategically important Hangu Pass.

However, if the Han army defeats the Wei army in front of them, their morale will be at its peak!

"kill!"

There were no fancy moves, only shouts of battle and the brandishing of weapons.

The morale of the Wei army was already lower than that of the Han army, and the elite of the Wei army had been annihilated by the Han army one after another. Now, when they encountered the fierce counterattack of the Han army, the Wei army that came out of the pass was no match at all.

Not long after.

The Wei army suffered a defeat.

Originally, Cao Zhen in the rear intended to wait for the Han army's ambush to appear before joining the battle, but unexpectedly, Liu Feng did not use any ambush, and the Wei army was defeated.

See this.

Cao Zhen had no choice but to enter the battlefield ahead of schedule.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Just after Cao Zhen joined the battle, a series of whistling arrows suddenly rang out in the sky above the battlefield.

An army suddenly charged in from the side, cutting Cao Zhen's troops in half. One of the generals shouted, "Wei Yan is here! You have fallen into the general's trap!"

Wei Yan originally accompanied Liu Bei and traveled with the central army.

Later, because Liu Feng killed too quickly, all the way from Tongguan to Hangu Pass, Liu Bei, worried that Liu Feng was isolated and deep in enemy territory, hurriedly sent Wei Yan to lead troops to reinforce him.

Just then, Liu Feng was plotting to lure Cao Pi out of the pass, so he deployed Wei Yan to an ambush position, relieving Liu Feng of the pressure of insufficient troops.

Originally intended to turn the tables, they still fell into Liu Feng's ambush.

Cao Pi, who was watching from the gate, was alarmed and hurriedly ordered Xiahou Shang to lead his troops out of the gate to rescue Cao Zhen.

Although Liu Feng released Cao Xiu, Liu Feng's killing intent is too great now. He has already killed Man Chong, Guo Huai, Zhang He, Cao Zhang, and even Zheng Hun, the governor of Hongnong. Cao Pi is afraid that Liu Feng will also kill Cao Zhen, then he will really have no one left to use by his side.

Xiahou Shang dared not delay and immediately urged his troops to leave the pass.

however.

It's easy to get out of the country, but difficult to get back in.

This is the only chance we can get to trick Cao Pi into sending troops out of the pass. Even if we can't kill Cao Zhen, we must at least kill a large number of Wei soldiers.

They saw that more troops were attacking from Hangu Pass.

Liu Feng led his personal guards and cavalry directly into the battlefield, charging straight at Xiahou Shang's banner.

"Xiahou Shang, you still dare to leave the pass? Are you not afraid of death?"

When Xiahou Shang saw Liu Feng coming to attack, he felt his heart pound with fear.

Having been chased by Liu Feng all the way from Caoyang to Hangu Pass, Xiahou Shang had long developed a fear of Liu Feng and dared not fight him at all.

"Stop Liu Feng! A reward of a thousand gold pieces will be given!"

While others offered a thousand gold pieces for killing Liu Feng, Xiahou Shang opted for a less generous reward: he offered a thousand gold pieces for simply stopping Liu Feng.

"You think you can stop me? You're not worthy!"

Liu Feng roared, and wherever his spear clashed, none could withstand his attack!
He was a brave and fierce general, with years of experience in battle. Without top-notch generals like Xu Huang to restrain Liu Feng, ordinary Wei soldiers would be no match for him.

"Xiahou Shang, prepare to die!"

A loud shout startled Xiahou Shang so much that his liver and gallbladder nearly burst.

When he tried to spur his horse to avoid them, Liu Feng had already charged right in front of him.

Left with no other choice, Xiahou Shang had to charge into battle against Liu Feng.

As soon as they clashed, Xiahou Shang felt an immense force transmitted from the spear into his hand, almost causing him to lose his grip.

"If we don't escape, we'll die!"

The outcome of the ongoing battle with Liu Feng flashed through Xiahou Shang's mind instantly. He immediately feinted with his spear and rode away.

Liu Feng, on the other hand, was in hot pursuit.

The surrounding Wei army was thrown into disarray as Xiahou Shang was pursued closely by Liu Feng.

Xiahou Shang originally wanted to flee towards Hangu Pass, but because the roads behind him were blocked, he could not retreat easily and had to escape by a side road.

Although the terrain of Hangu Pass was easy to defend and difficult to attack, it also created a fatal disadvantage for the defending army.

That is, once the defending troops who have left the pass cannot win, it will become extremely difficult for them to return to the pass, as the narrow passage will prevent the army from quickly retreating back inside!
This is one of the reasons why Liu Feng tried every means to lure the Wei army out of the pass.

Once you're out of the customs area, turning back won't be easy.

Seeing that Xiahou Shang's attempt to leave the pass was still unsuccessful, Cao Pi at Hangu Pass was completely bewildered.

Anger was replaced by fear, and Cao Pi finally realized the enormity of his mistake.

Although he understood the situation, Cao Pi was unable to send reinforcements.

All Cao Pi could do now was pray at Hangu Pass, praying that Cao Zhen and Xiahou Shang could return safely to Hangu Pass.

Wang Ping, Li Ping, Wei Yan, and others held Cao Zhen back, preventing him from escaping; Liu Feng, on the other hand, relentlessly pursued Xiahou Shang, determined to kill the terrified Xiahou Shang.

At Hangu Pass, the Han and Wei armies fought endlessly.

Liu Feng pursued Xiahou Shang away from the main battlefield and arrived at a secluded path.

"Liu Feng, why do you have to pursue me like this?" Xiahou Shang was panting heavily, feeling both resentful and confused by Liu Feng's insistence on chasing him.

Liu Feng did not answer, but instead drew his bow and shot an arrow at Xiahou Shang.

Xiahou Shang caught the arrow between his legs, leaned over the saddle and pretended to be hit by the arrow, but in reality he secretly took out his bow.

As Liu Feng's warhorse approached, Xiahou Shang turned around and shot an arrow that struck Liu Feng squarely between the eyebrows. Liu Feng cried out in pain and fell off his horse.

Upon hearing Liu Feng's cry of pain and seeing him fall from his horse, Xiahou Shang's pupils instantly contracted.

"bingo?"

Xiahou Shang's tone was a mixture of surprise and delight.

Just as Xiahou Shang turned his horse around to fire a finishing arrow, Liu Feng swiftly turned around like a hawk and fired another arrow at Xiahou Shang, hitting Xiahou Shang's warhorse directly.

The warhorse, in pain, threw Xiahou Shang to the ground.

Before Xiahou Shang could react, Liu Feng lunged forward and began wrestling with him.

But for a moment.

Xiahou Shang was beaten senseless by Liu Feng, who then took out a short knife from his calf and ended Xiahou Shang's life.

"Blame it on your own, that you are surnamed Xiahou and are a confidant of Cao Pi."

After taking Xiahou Shang's head, Liu Feng rode back to the battlefield.

At this moment, both sides on the battlefield were locked in a stalemate. Cao Zhen, with his bravery, stabilized the situation of the Wei army and fought to a standstill with the Han army.

Liu Feng casually tossed Xiahou Shang's head to his personal guard Tian Qi and ordered, "Send word to the troops that Xiahou Shang has been killed by me!"

Tian Qi frowned: "General, why are you risking your life again? If anything happens to you, we will be guilty of a grave offense!"

Liu Feng laughed loudly: "Opportunity knocks but once. If I don't pursue it, how can I kill Xiahou Shang? Don't mention this to Zhongxiang Gong."

Tian Qi hesitated, then sighed inwardly.

Due to his advanced age, Yu Fan, although he entered Chang'an with the army, did not follow them again, and naturally could not persuade Liu Feng.

If Yu Fan were in the army, he would never have allowed Liu Feng to pursue Xiahou Shang alone.

Although Liu Feng's martial prowess surpassed Xiahou Shang's, life-or-death battles on the battlefield are not solely determined by brute force; anyone who doesn't want to die will resort to any means necessary.

Tian Qi was worried that Liu Feng might risk his life and cause an accident, which would truly become a tragedy for Sun Ce.

News of Xiahou Shang's execution by Liu Feng quickly spread throughout the army.

The morale of the Han army was greatly boosted.

Upon seeing Xiahou Shang's head hanging high, the morale of the Wei army plummeted, and the balance that Cao Zhen had been trying to maintain crumbled after Xiahou Shang was beheaded.

"Bo Ren was beheaded?"

Cao Zhen was both shocked and frightened. Seeing that morale was beginning to crumble, he dared not linger in battle. He led his personal guards to retreat to the small path of Hangu Pass before issuing the order to withdraw his troops.

When the Wei army learned that Xiahou Shang had been beheaded and Cao Zhen's banner had retreated to the narrow path of Hangu Pass, their morale collapsed even faster, and they dared not engage the Han army in battle.

"It was I who ruined Bo Ren!"

At Hangu Pass, Cao Pi was filled with regret.

If it weren't for the insistence on sending troops out of the pass, Xiahou Dun wouldn't have died, Cao Zhen wouldn't have been defeated, and he wouldn't have lost so many troops outside Hangu Pass.

Seeing the Wei army trampling each other on the narrow path of Hangu Pass, Cao Pi was filled with remorse.

"Cao Pi, why don't you surrender immediately!"

At the foot of Hangu Pass.

Liu Feng arrived again.

This time, however, Cao Pi dared not answer Liu Feng.

His generals were killed one after another.

Cao Pi's arrogance and anger vanished, leaving only fear.

however.

The bad news did not disappear because of Cao Pi's regret; instead, it came one after another.

"Your Majesty, Han troops are attacking Yique Pass."

"Your Majesty, Xianbei cavalry have appeared on the northern flank of Luoyang."

"Your Majesty, Liu Bei's banners have appeared outside Hangu Pass."

"."

One piece of bad news after another left Cao Pi exhausted and also gave rise to the idea of ​​moving the capital: the Han army was advancing like a whirlwind, and even if he could hold Hangu Pass, he probably wouldn't be able to stop the Han army from entering Luoyang.

Luoyang is too dangerous. (End of Chapter)
