Wuguan, from being called the three Qin fortress, Qin Chu throat, you can see the importance of this pass, above the history, Qin invaded Chu, mostly out of Wuguan and entered, the terrain is dangerous, the north depends on Shaoxi Mountain, the south is endangered by the stream, surrounded by water on three sides, the whole city is about 1.5 kilometers long, built in the canyon on a relatively flat plateau, easy to defend and difficult to attack. If it weren't for the internal enemy of Qin and the sudden attack of Chu, Wuguan would have been extremely difficult to capture.

Qu Wan took Wuguan, opened the passage into Qin, 200,000 troops swept in, naturally also know the importance of Wuguan to their own army, if the enemy takes Wuguan, the pass is a letter, 200,000 troops will become Weng Zhongzhi, even if he knows that now Qin is now in a mess, it is impossible to send troops to recapture Wuguan, Qu Wan did not take it lightly, leaving a garrison of 10,000 people here.

In addition to ensuring that the Chu army had no worries about the back, Wuguan also became a logistics reserve center for the 200,000-strong army, and a large amount of grain, grass, and weapons were transported from Chu to Wuguan, and then distributed to the troops entering Qin.

If you want to seize Wuguan, you must first take Shaoxi Mountain, which is the task of Long Bin's vanguard group. After capturing Shaoxi Mountain, set up artillery on the top of the mountain and bombard Wuguan condescendingly, then Wuguan will inevitably be difficult to defend. Of course, this strategy of seizing Wuguan can only be made by the Han army, because to do this, the first thing is to have sharp weapons such as artillery, if it is only a long-range weapon such as trebuchet, it is impossible to cause significant damage to Wuguan.

The rain for many days successfully covered the approach of the Han army, and the Chu army in Wuguan did not expect at all that there would be an army full of hostility, which had approached them infinitely, and in their minds, they only thought that under such bad weather and road requirements, it was impossible for that army to march, but they forgot. There is an army in this world called the Han Army.

For the generals of the Chu army in Wuguan, let them garrison here, or more like they were punished, because the seizure of a large area of land in Qin, which is also worthy of a special mention in the history books, will not have their footprints, and at present, the southern part of Qin, all of them are Chu troops, and the inside of Qin, the fight is a mess, and who can threaten Wuguan?

Shao Xi on the mountain. Originally, there were 2,000 garrisons, but the continuous rain made the garrison on Shaoxi Mountain miserable, and after obtaining the consent of the guard general Wenfu, only 500 people were left on Shaomu Mountain to guard the camp tent, and the rest of the people were all withdrawn to the pass. When the scouts sent by Long Bin probed to Shaoxi Mountain, there were only five hundred defenders, and they were immediately stunned by happiness.

"Heaven does not take it. We will be damned, God's rain these days is helping us! Long Bin spread his hands and looked up to the sky and sighed. God, I've been wrong with you these days, and I'm going to burn incense for you and make three sacrifices for you. Hahaha, the defense of 500 people, how many people do I lose less! ”

The elated Long Bin was in the second watch. Led the troops to begin to march towards Shaomu Mountain, although the rain in the sky stopped, but the heavy dark clouds were still heavy overhead, reaching out to the five fingers, the forward of a battalion led by Long Bin himself under the cover of night, secretly climbed towards Shaoxi.

The reason why Shaoxi Mountain can become one of the barriers of Wuguan is that it is dangerous, on the mountain road, the narrowest place only allows two people to go side by side, if it is a hard fight, it is indeed necessary to pay a huge sacrifice, but now, from the foot of the mountain all the way to the top of the mountain less than 100 meters away, Long Bin did not encounter any resistance, and the Chu army did not have any defense at all.

Above his head, a simple stone wall could already be seen, which was made of stone and Sanhe soil, about two meters high, and at the top of the wall, a dead wind lamp emitted a dim light, but where the light shone, Long Bin did not find a single figure. But a loud noise could be heard in my ears.

Tilting his ears sideways, carefully distinguishing the noise, Long Bin couldn't help but laugh dumbly, probably the Chu army on duty was gathering in a place where he could take shelter from the wind and rain to gamble.

"Battalion commander, you personally lead a company, climb up, solve the guards, and open the gates of the barracks. Be quick! Long Bin commanded in a low voice.

"Okay, head of the regiment, you can watch me!" The commander of the first battalion smiled softly, or this would be the easiest battle he had ever experienced, when he had deduced it on the sand table before, everyone thought it was a tough battle, but now it seems that it is easier than suppressing bandits.

A cluster of black shadows moved to the wall with agility like a lynx, a row of people in front squatted on the ground, supported the ground with both hands, a row of trots a few steps behind, jumped up suddenly, stepped on the shoulder position of a person in front of him and jumped up, both hands have grabbed the top of the wall, the waist is hard, the elbow is half a knot, one leg has climbed up, the whole person rolls again, and the person disappears on the top of the wall. Long Bin watched everyone climb over the wall, and the heart he was still carrying finally let go.

The commander of the first battalion was the first to turn over, and as soon as he landed, he immediately hid in the shadows under the base of the wall, not far in front of him, in several tents, the lights were bright, and the sound of gambling came from there, and farther above, there was a neat row of tents, and the scale of the people stationed here was indeed quite large.

A soldier next to him took out a grenade from his waist, a battalion commander glanced at it, and reached out to hold his hand, "Do you still need to use a grenade, keep it for a tough battle, these people, let's use knives and crossbow arrows to deal with it." ”

The soldiers laughed softly, put back their grenades, took off their crossbows, put on their crossbows, and silently touched the tents. Behind him, the gate of the wall had been opened, and a battalion of hundreds of mermaids rushed in. At the foot of the mountain, a regiment of officers and soldiers was moving towards the mountain, carrying some heavy weapons they carried.

God bless the man! In Long Bin's heart, he could only think like this.

The snow bright steel knife in the hand of the battalion commander was raised high, the knife flashed, and with a bang, the tent was cut open with a big opening, and more than a dozen Chu soldiers in the tent looked up in amazement, staring at the gap, what they saw was a crossbow arrow that rushed to their faces like raindrops, and the short screams quickly disappeared, and all the Chu troops in the entire big tent fell in a pool of blood.

On Shaoxi Mountain, the Chu army garrison of five hundred people was quietly cleaned up, less than a time, Long Bin has been sitting leisurely at the top of the mountain to enjoy the effect of the Wuguan below, standing on the top of this mountain, the Wuguan can be described as a clear view, this kind of checkpoint to guard the important place, the most difficult to beat before, if the artillery has not been invented, relying on the previous cold weapons, Long Bin estimates that the Wuguan guarded by 10,000 people, there are no several times the number of people and horses, don't think about it, even several times the number of people, and it may not be able to take it, The attack surface is too narrow, the soldiers and horses can't be deployed at all, they can only add oil to the general one by one, this Wuguan faces the water on three sides, and one side is backed by the mountain, just such a narrow valley passage, it really deserves to be the four major Xiongguan of the Qin State.

At this moment, in the Wuguan, they didn't know that the Shaoxi Mountain above their heads had changed hands, and the lights inside were bright, reflecting the outline of the entire pass clearly, and Long Bin could even tell that it was a barracks, a grain depot, and an armory.

The Han army on the hill was already busy and began to build forts, and after dawn, the large army arrived, and Shaoxi Mountain would also be turned into an artillery position, from which they would provide the most intense artillery support for the attack down the mountain.

Mei Hua arrived at nearly five watches, and his main force finally arrived at the destination within the specified time of the army commander Yang Dasha.

"Now it seems that laying down the military pass is much easier than our march along the way." Mei Hua put down the binoculars in her hand and looked at Long Bin with a smile, "This doesn't look like a war, it's like a drill." ”

"This heavy rain has helped us a lot, and the Chu army doesn't even send scouts, so it's cheaper for us." Long Bin smiled: "Otherwise, this Shao Xi Mountain will be enough for a dozen." ”

"It's God who wants to destroy them." Mei Hua smiled hesitantly.

At the foot of the mountain, in Wuguan City, Zhang Gan, the left-behind general of the Chu army, was looking at the military report, what he was good at was not fighting, but the overall planning of logistics, which was also the reason why Qu Wan left him in Wuguan, here, he could give full play to his strengths, and distribute the materials needed by the Chu army on the front line to the hands of various departments in an orderly manner, 10,000 Chu troops actually stayed in Wuguan for a long time, but half, and the rest were running around on the road to escort logistics baggage. But now his brows are tightly furrowed, the war in the south of Qin has undergone some changes, the southern border army that originally fled back from Qin has asked General Qu to surrender, but suddenly it has changed again, and he actually joined forces with the Xuanyi Guards who pursued them, General Qu suffered a big loss, losing tens of thousands of soldiers, but fortunately, General Qu has captured Sanchuan County, Qu Wan, who has suffered this loss, is obviously not ready to swallow this breath, and now he is gathering the Chu army in the south, ready to fight a tough battle with these two Qin armies, If these two armies are eliminated, the state of Chu will be able to smoothly swallow the southern part of the state of Qin and then digest it slowly, otherwise there will be variables.

However, Zhang Qian was a little uneasy, and the sudden change in Qin Jun made him smell a hint of ominousness. However, this is not something he can consider, in the military report, Qu Wan ordered him to escort more grain, grass, and weapons to Sanchuan County, and he has gathered nearly 150,000 main forces to fight a decisive battle with the Qin army of more than 70,000 people in the southern border army.

Or, this is the last battle of this expedition, and if this battle is won, the Qin state will no longer have the strength to retake the southern lands, and all the Chu state has to do is to slowly digest the fruits of victory. It's just that the powerful Han State in the north will watch the Chu State expand its strength?

This thought passed through Zhang Gan's mind, but he was immediately driven out by more chores, and the logistics needed for the 150,000 troops who fought the decisive battle with the enemy were enough to give him a headache. (To be continued.) )
