With a bang, the door was slammed open, Chongguang struggled to raise his head, and the first thing that caught his eye was the familiar Qin army uniform.

"I'm Chongguang, the guard of Hanya, what's going on outside?" Chongguang shouted.

"General Chongguang, are you still alive?" Several Qin soldiers who broke into the door rushed up screaming, looking at Chongguang, who was covered in blood. Go find General Bai Qi, General Chongguang is still alive."

Someone rushed up, someone ran out, Chongguang supported the bed with both hands, wanted to sit up, but he couldn't do it, he couldn't hold it up, he fell down heavily again, and two Qin soldiers ran up and helped him up.

"What happened?" Looking at the Qin army beside him, Chongguang's eyes were a little confused, but more excited, "The general led the troops back?"

"General Chongguang, the general hasn't come back yet, we are General Bai Qi's subordinates." The soldier replied.

There was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, and Bai Qi stepped out of the house, looking at Chongguang, his eyes were full of excitement, "General Chongguang, you are still alive, this is great!"

"What happened? How did you recapture Hangu Pass?" Looking at Bai Qi, Chongguang asked.

Bai Qi looked around, waved his hand, and the surrounding sergeants retreated knowingly, leaving only Bai Qi and Chongguang in the room, walking to the bed, Bai Qi sat on the edge of the bed, muttered for a moment, and said: "General Chongguang, I won't tell you, we have been in Hangu Pass all along."

"What? You've been in Hangu Pass, why don't I know?" Shigemitsu asked.

"General Chongguang was just transferred from Changping City before the war, and the war broke out less than two days after arriving at Hangu Pass, so I am not very familiar with the situation in Hangu Pass, a month ago, according to General Li's military order, Bai led his troops to dig out countless criss-crossing tunnels under Hangu Pass and did a good job of concealment, the whole process, except for the soldiers involved, no outsiders knew, we have been hiding in these tunnels for six days." Bai Qidao.

"Why?" Chongguang looked at Bai Qi, and his hands trembled.

"General Chongguang, this is to completely annihilate the 100,000 troops of the Hedong battalion of Zhao State, in order to achieve this goal, Hangu Pass has become a decoy, General Li Xin has set up a net, just wait for these 100,000 Zhao troops to crash into it, we will retake Hangu Pass, and we will block their only way back."

"So, actually, I was transferred to die, wasn't I?" Shigemitsu asked.

"You can't say that!" Bai Qi said: "Hangu Pass must resist desperately, General Chongguang is brave and good at fighting, and it happens that the level is enough to take on the post of Hangu Pass, in fact, there are not many choices for the general."

Chongguang covered his face with his hands, "Then why don't you tell me the truth?"

"General Chongguang, if you know the truth, will you still have the determination to resist desperately before?" Bai Qi asked: "No, definitely not, because once a person knows that he still has a way out and another choice, his psychology will definitely be shaken."

Chongguang leaned back and fell heavily on the bed, "Three thousand soldiers, plus Changping City, Yangfeng City, more than 5,000 soldiers, were kept in the dark and died on the battlefield!"

"In order to accomplish this goal, someone has to sacrifice." Looking at Chongguang's appearance, his white eyes slowly became cold, "General Chongguang, you are the general of the Qin State, you should understand that it is not you, it will be someone else's. Every Qin* person should be prepared to sacrifice a qiē for the Great Qin, otherwise, he cannot be called a Great Qin warrior. Yes, we paid the price of 5,000 people, but what we will get will be the return of 100,000 Zhao * team for the annihilation, this exchange ratio, I think you understand."

Chongguang nodded, "I understand, of course I do."

Looking at Chongguang with tears streaming down his face, although Bai Qi was a little sympathetic, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it, on the contrary, he felt that it was an honor.

"General Bai, we have captured Zhao Jin, the county guard of Hedong County of Zhao State." Outside, the sound of soldiers reporting could be heard. Bai Qi stood up and saluted Chongguang with a fist, "General Chongguang, you have a good rest, and then I will find a doctor to treat your injuries, and when Zhao Jun gets into the cage we have set up, after it is ready, I will send someone to send you to the rear to treat your injuries. We won't be able to make it this battle, but rest assured, we will avenge our brother who died at Hangu Pass."

Watching Bai Qi stride out of the door, Chongguang, this brave general who led 3,000 soldiers to fight to the death with nearly 100,000 soldiers, and did not take half a step back with dozens of wounds on his back, covered his face with his hands, and cried loudly.

He had a feeling of being betrayed, which could not be a good feeling. He is still alive, or will be rewarded vigorously after the war, and will be promoted to a higher official position, but the thousands of brothers who died will never be able to enjoy these glory, and they must still regret that they did not guard the gate of Great Qin before they died.

Zhao Jin's current appearance is very miserable, the original luxurious clothes have been pulled into one by one, and the exposed fat is dripping with blood, although the injuries are not too serious, but his expression looks extremely painful, as if these injuries are enough to make him fatal. He was born noble, pampered since he was a child, in a high position, he was afraid that he rarely saw blood, and seeing himself become like this, psychologically, it was indeed a big blow.

"General Bai, a very strong elite of the Zhao army escorted him out of the pass, but this guy is too fat, in our battle with the opponent, the horse actually couldn't hold this guy and lay down, and threw this guy down, captured by our army, those Zhao soldiers saw him fall into our hands, so they broke through." A tooth general approached Bai Qi and whispered back, this person looked at Zhao Jin as he spoke, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles that could not be concealed, the fat man who pressed the war horse on his stomach, he really saw it for the first time.

"A few shrimp soldiers and crab generals, let's go!" Bai Qi waved his hand, "The 100,000 troops of the Hedong battalion of Zhao Guo have now entered my Great Qin, and this small fish and shrimp will run away after they run away."

As the two were talking, Zhao Jin, who was below, suddenly shouted, "I am Zhao Jin, the guard of Hedong County of Zhao State, quickly call a doctor to treat my injuries. I'm dying!"

He trembled and raised his hand, trying to touch the scars and blood stains on his body, but he didn't have the courage to do so.

"Zhao Junshou, I know who you are!" Bai Qi looked over with contempt, "Don't worry, this little injury can't kill anyone, you have thick skin!"

"I've bled a lot, I'm going to run out of blood!" Zhao Jin said tremblingly, the whole person slipped to the ground, if it wasn't for the two Qin soldiers behind him to hold him, he would definitely collapse to the ground.

Seeing that Zhao Jin's face was pale, it seemed that he might faint at any time, Bai Qi shook his head, grandma's, what a bear.

"Call a doctor and bandage him." This guy is a big fish, and he can't just be braided.

When the sky was bright, Hangu Pass was completely easy to defend, the last Zhao army in the pass to resist house by house was also cleared, the banner of the Qin army was raised again in Hangu Pass, Zhao Jin led two thousand Zhao troops, except for a very few people who broke through and escaped from the pass, the rest of the people were either taken prisoner or died in the city.

Under Bai Qi's command, Hangu Pass began intense post-war restoration work, and before the arrival of the thousands of Qin troops Chen Shu outside the pass, Bai Qi had to re-strengthen Hangu Pass in order to be able to meet the subsequent frantic counterattack of the Zhao army.

Hangu Pass has changed hands overnight, and the Zhao army, which is still unaware of this, is still advancing rapidly, Jing Rufeng flew the army into three roads, and led the middle road himself, with Zhao Xilie and Li Mingjun divided the left and right roads, and the three-way army attacked Yongshou County, Chunhua County, and Sanyuan County respectively.

On the tenth day of breaking the letter valley pass, Zhao Xilie's troops arrived at Yongshou, compared with the almost no resistance in the previous places, Yongshou was obviously prepared, the first time he saw the dense Qin army and countless bows and crossbows on Yongshou County, as well as the front of the county seat, dense antlers, rejection of horses, and trapping pits, Zhao Xilie knew that he had a tough battle to fight.

"Attack, take Yongshou, only force Xianyang!" Zhao Xilie was convinced that the Qin army of Yongshou would never have too many troops, and he now had 20,000 troops in his hands, and the city wall of Yongshou was not high, less than five meters high, for the well-trained Zhao army, it was definitely not a fortified city.

It only took half a day's effort, Zhao Xilie cleaned up all the obstacles outside Yongshou City, and then launched a strong attack on Yongshou City, just an attack, Zhao Jun killed the city wall, but what surprised Zhao Xilie was that the Zhao army that killed the city wall, after half a day of fighting, under the situation of many casualties, actually did not take the slightest advantage, and were expelled by the Qin army in the city, several attacks, all of which returned without attack, seeing that it was late, the Zhao army was tired, Zhao Xilie could only order to temporarily withdraw the troops.

Almost when Zhao Xilie encountered the Qin army in Yongshou, Jing Rufeng, who attacked Chunhua in the middle, and Li Mingjun, who attacked Sanyuan on the right, also encountered strong resistance from the Qin army. The three-way army, divided into three places, none of them can achieve victory. The Zhao army, which was advancing like a raging wave, was like encountering a hard stone in the three places, and could no longer move forward, so it had to slow down the pace of advance.

At the same time, on the periphery of the three counties, the army of the Qin army had already unfolded, pressing towards the Zhao army of the three counties.

A fast horse galloped towards Jicheng along the newly repaired gallop road, and immediately the knight had three red flags behind him, this is a messenger from Yuyang County, the war between Zhao and Qin was reopened, and the information that Zhao Jun captured Hangu Pass was in the iron cylinder behind him at this time.

"Eight hundred miles expedited, eight hundred miles expedited!" Rushing into a post on the edge of the road ahead, the knight jumped down and shouted.

Seeing the three red flags on the back of the knight, the post officer did not dare to slack off, and immediately rushed out of the post station with a cavalryman dressed in the same costume, untied a war horse tied to the yard of the post station, and rushed to the messenger, the messenger untied the iron cylinder behind his back, handed it to him, put the iron cylinder on his body, and the cavalryman immediately beat his horse and galloped away.
