He Zaiye nodded and said, "Maybe it's really me making a big fuss." But then again, this Qin Qunian still has some ability, and it is not easy for him to come up with such a plan, but we have insight into his intentions in advance, so you feel that he is nothing more than that, if we have been kept in the dark, it is easy for him to sneak attack. ”

He Jingzhong said: "Even if we don't get the news in advance, it will be difficult for his plan to succeed. ”

He Zaiye said: "All or nothing! Do others have different opinions?"

At this time, a general said: "This Xie Changhong crossed Dayong Ridge so quickly, could it be to attack Luochuan?"

Another general chimed in: "Now that Luochuan is empty, I can't rule out this possibility." ”

He Jingzhong said: "If Qin Qunian really used his troops like a god, he would not have come up with such a bad idea, although Luochuan is empty, but the terrain is complicated, and it is not possible to attack Luochuan overnight, and even if Luochuan is attacked, it will not help them at all, they can even give up Xianyang, why can't we give up Luochuan?"

The general said, "But our family members are all in Luochuan!"

He Jingzhong said: "We have enough time, now we can notify Luo Chuan, let them pay attention to Xie Changhong's movements, if something is wrong, let them immediately transfer your family to the deep mountains." ”

He Zaiye said: "This situation is very small, these 300,000 soldiers and horses are the elite of the Qin State, and good steel will be used on the blade, originally they are now short of troops, it is impossible to let these 300,000 elites go to fight soy sauce, if these 300,000 soldiers and horses really go to Luochuan, then we can directly attack Xianyang now, and there is no need to worry about the future." ”

All the generals felt that it made sense and nodded their heads.

He Zaiye said at this time: "Since Xie Changhong is a master of art and dares to use himself as a sharp knife and insert it into our backs, it's a pity that he came too early, and we have time to entertain them." ”

He Jingzhong said: "That's right, now that Wanting's frontal troops have not been assembled, we are idle, it is better to eat Xie Changhong's 300,000 elites first, as long as these 300,000 elites are gone, Qin Guo is like pulling out the backbone, and we will no longer be able to make waves." ”

He Zaiye nodded and said, "You will send someone to inform King Yiqu now, let him get ready, we will ambush these 300,000 soldiers and horses." ”

He Jingzhong answered and withdrew from the account.

Juliangguan.

King Yiqu led 400,000 soldiers and horses to gather here, but Juliangguan has been destroyed, so there is no room to live, but he is not as particular as He Zaiye, and he has to set up a tent anytime and anywhere, At this time, he was sitting on a mountain, surrounded by a group of generals.

King Yiqu is relatively young, and his dress is not as particular as that of the Central Plains, and he does not have a bun on his head, so he ties a ponytail very casually. The hairstyles of the other generals are all strange, some wear dirty braids, some wear two braids, and some simply wear their hair.

King Yiqu only ascended the throne three years ago, and like all kings who have just ascended the throne, he is full of blood and ambition, always thinking of doing some vigorous and great feats and leading the country to a better future. And the Qin State is undoubtedly a good place for him to display his ambitions, after all, the ancestors and the ancestors have been abused by the Qin State, if in his hands, the Qin State is collapsed and their old capital Luochuan is recaptured, then the ancestors and the ancestors have spirits in the sky, and they will definitely praise him every day in their dreams.

In the past three years since he ascended the throne, he has been thinking about how to mess up the Qin State every day, and the Qin State is now getting stronger and stronger, which makes him feel like he is on pins and needles, and he is restless in his sleep. As a result, at this juncture, He Zaiye told him that he wanted to rebel, and promised him the land of Luochuan, which made him overjoyed, this kind of dog-biting dog-mouthed thing, he liked to hear. Even if he can't get Luochuan, he is willing to come over and step on it, although the Yiqu State does not have the strength to destroy the Qin State now, but after this battle, no matter whether He Zaizou's rebellion can succeed or not, the Qin State will also be greatly injured and collapse.

So he hit it off with He Zaiye, and even personally led the troops, just thinking of the scenery on the territory of Qin, if possible, he could also go to Xianyang to have a visit, after all, no one from his ancestors and ancestors had ever visited Xianyang, which was also a matter of honoring his ancestors. In the past two days, he has been galloping across the land of Qin, and he is really happy and revenge, and it is very cool, even if there is no tent to live in, at least the soul has a home.

Now that he had received a tip from He Zaiye, saying that the 300,000 elites of Hanguguan were preparing to outflank them, this made him a little nervous, and he hurriedly summoned a dozen major generals to the grove to discuss this matter.

At this time, a general said: "King, we came here this time to beat the water dogs, but we can only stand on the shore and fight, and we can't jump into the water to fight, otherwise we will be easily bitten by the dog." These 300,000 Hanguguan elites cannot be underestimated, if we ambush them, although we can succeed, we will definitely lose our vitality, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”

Another general said: "That's right, we are here to pound the paste, if we can kick two feet, we can kick two feet, if we can't kick two feet, we will smear oil on the soles of our feet, go home and sleep, there is no need to fight with them, after all, even if He Zaiye gets the Qin State, he may not return Luochuan to us!"

King Yiqu thought for a moment and said, "That's right. But these 300,000 elites should cross the Dayong Ridge tonight, if they outflank us, then our back road will be cut off, and we will have to fight without fighting!"

A general said: "That can't be an ambush for our family, let's talk to He Zaiye, let him send a little more people over, let him set up an ambush himself, we will send a little less people to play soy sauce, we must preserve our strength, because what we brought over this time is the entire family of Yiqu Country, we can't make any mistakes, we must be careful, and be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years!"

King Yiqu said: "What if He Zaino does not agree?"

The general said: "If we don't agree, we will withdraw our troops, and we won't play with him, we are here to make a mess, king, you can't put the cart before the horse, as long as the situation is not right, we will smear oil on the soles of our feet, and there is no faith in the people of Qin, He Zaiye is also a person of Qin, and it is not a good thing." ”

King Yiqu nodded and said, "Okay, then you can inform He Zaiye now, let him quickly choose an ambush location, send a few more people over, and we will be responsible for covering." But if you want to put it mildly, let's just say that we are used to crisscrossing the desert, and we can only charge in the field, not in ambushes. ”

The general answered.

After He Zaiye got the news, he didn't feel angry, because he also knew that Yiqu Guo was here to make soy sauce, and their purpose was to fall into the ground, and they had no greater ideals and ambitions, so they couldn't be compared with his rebellion. After some discussion, after determining that Wanting's soldiers and horses did not advance northward, it was decided to send 300,000 soldiers and horses, and Yiqu State sent another 100,000 soldiers and horses to ambush the 300,000 elites of Qin State in Langzhongshan.

As long as the 300,000 elites are ready to outflank them, then Lang Zhongshan is the only way for them, and this time He Zaiye is also bound to win, as long as the 300,000 elites are destroyed, he can rest easy!

Because this battle is a matter of life and death, He Zaiye is also very nervous, and he doesn't even have the heart to sleep, and has been inquiring about the news.

At midnight, news finally came that the 300,000 elites of Hangu Pass had crossed the Dayong Ridge, but to his surprise, this army did not mean to stop or turn, but rushed all the way to the north.

He Zaiye felt inexplicable, and he really couldn't figure it out, so he summoned the generals to the tent in the middle of the night to discuss this matter. His eldest son, He Jingzhong, did not come because he went to Langzhong Mountain to set up an ambush.

When the generals heard the news, they all felt inexplicable, and one of them said: "This Xie Changhong has never brought so many soldiers in his life, so he won't be too excited, right?

Another general said: "Or maybe you're lost! After all, it's normal to get lost in the middle of the night." ”

Another general said: "Then this is fun, 300,000 soldiers and horses have become a swarm of headless flies, and we don't need to set up an ambush, and we will collapse without a fight!"

The answers of these people made He Zaiye dissatisfied, so he took a deep breath and said, "This is unlikely." I know Xie Changhong, he knows the terrain of the northern part of the Qin State well, even at night when he can't see his fingers, he won't get lost. At this time, he looked at He Jingliang and said, "What do you think?"

He Jingliang said: "I don't think it's possible, they must have another purpose." It's possible that they knew that we were going to set up an ambush at Lang Zhongshan, so they wanted to spend a few more days and bypass Lang Zhongshan, which could also be the reason for them to come early. ”

He Zaiye nodded and said, "Your explanation is somewhat reasonable, but there should be no other possibilities besides that." Indeed, it can be explained that they came in advance. ”

He Jingliang said: "Then should we let the eldest brother withdraw from Lang Zhongshan now and let him set up an ambush in another place?"

He Zaiye said: "This is not in a hurry, even if they bypass Lang Zhongshan, it will take a few days, we have time, if Changhuajun and Bashu Kingdom in the south break through the defense line, we don't have to pay attention to these 300,000 soldiers and horses, and go directly south to attack the soldiers and horses of Wanting! Let them play around here slowly, and when Xianyang is pacified, these 300,000 soldiers and horses will be like lost dogs, even if they are elite, they will be like lost dogs, and finally come and slowly clean them up." ”

He Jingliang nodded and said, "Father has a point!"

He Zaiye said: "But we must not take it lightly, we still have to pay close attention to Xie Changhong's movements to prevent him from killing a horse pistol, since this guy can make Qin Qunian look at him, he is also scheming, and he must be guarded against." ”
