Chapter 1091: The Change of Cuihan (Part II)
The team finally arrived at Hangu Pass, in the city system of Kunhan Pass, Da Kun Pass is also easy to defend and difficult to attack, extremely strong, but the real difficulty is Hangu Pass, for Jiang Min's caravan, as long as they successfully enter Hangu Pass, even if it is made of bluestone, Da Kun Pass will no longer be an obstacle for them.
The team stopped in front of Hangu Pass, and Jiang Min shouted loudly: "I am Jiang Min of Luoyang,
At this time, a crack opened in the city gate, and a general in his thirties ran out, with a smile on his face: "Master Jiang, you are really punctual!" ”
This general is called Zheng Quan, he is Zhang Wutao's henchman, when Zhang Wutao was still a ruffian, this Zheng Quan was his little brother, in fact, he was also a Luoyang scoundrel, every time he came to greet him, of course he also had to take advantage.
Jiang Min glanced at Guan Cheng, the lights on Guan Cheng were dim, and he couldn't see anything clearly, but he knew that Zhang Wutao was watching him from Guan Cheng.
"General Zheng, this time it was said in advance!"
Jiang Min saw that Zheng Quan was heading towards the ox cart, and immediately stretched his face and said, "It's good to say that you won't check it!" ”
"I know! I know! General Zhang told me not to check, I was just a little curious. ”
Zheng Quan smelled a strong smell of incense powder, his heart was itching, he opened the curtain of an ox cart and quickly glanced at it, the inside of the ox cart was very wide, one foot and five feet long, and there were four women in long skirts sitting on each side, wearing flower hats, they saw someone coming, and they pulled up the masks on their faces one after another.
Zheng Quan only saw the face of a woman in the outermost way, she looked good, very young, but not like an orchid, but like a Han Chinese? The orchids inside are all very stout? But that's normal, Orchid is strong? Tang girl plump? Everyone knows it.
It's just a strong smell of incense powder that makes Zheng Quan can't help but sneeze a few times in a row? I thought to myself, 'Isn't this orchid a good thing?' Stout and tall? It doesn't sell for a good price. ’
"General Zheng, we said okay, we won't check this time!" Jiang Min was really unhappy.
Zheng Quan hurriedly raised his hand and smiled: "It's not an inspection, it's just a walk-around form?" Just take a look. ”
Jiang Min took out a cloth bag and threw it to him? Inside is three hundred taels of silver, which is also the benefit of Zheng Quan, every time he gives twenty or thirty taels of money, but this time he gave three hundred taels of silver.
Zheng Quan felt the heavy silver, and his heart suddenly bloomed? I didn't even need to go through the inspection, and ran back and shouted, "Kaesong!" ”
Guancheng slowly opened? Jiang Min let the ox cart carrying the wine enter the customs first, and he himself entered the city.
Really? As soon as he entered the city, he saw Zhang Wutao, who was smiling and not smiling, Jiang Min knew that he was waiting for him? Every time? Greedy for money.
Jiang Min turned over and dismounted? Take off the heavy horse bag and put it in front of Zhang Wutao, "It's all in here!" ”
Zhang Wutao was not polite, opened the horse bag and counted it, there were twenty ingots of gold, ten taels each, a total of two hundred taels, worth two thousand yuan, plus a deposit of one thousand yuan, this time he earned three thousand yuan, Zhang Wutao smiled on his face.
Zhang Wutao gave a thumbs up and praised: "Dong Zhu Jiang is really a believer!" ”
At this time, the ox cart had already entered the pass, and the soldiers guarding the pass heard that it was the orchid who came, and they rushed over one after another.
Jiang Min immediately reminded: "General Zhang, let them not get close, it frightened the people in the car!" ”
Zhang Wutao walked forward quickly, waved his hand and shouted: "Just look, don't do it, whoever dares to do it, I'll cut off his dog paws!" ”
Hundreds of soldiers crowded on both sides of the official road, smelling the scent of incense, pointing, and stretching their necks, all wanting to see the women inside.
Zhang Wutao suddenly remembered what Jiang Min had promised him, and he immediately turned around and asked, "Master Jiang, what about my woman?" ”
Jiang Min pointed to an ox cart parked on the side of the road in front of him and smiled: "That ox cart is inside!" ”
Zhang Wutao was overjoyed, walked forward quickly, and through the crack in the curtain of the car, he saw a tall and plump woman sitting inside.
Zhang Wutao himself is a scoundrel, where can he bear it, he opened the curtain and drilled into the car, "Little lady, uncle is here to hurt you!" ”
He was so horny that he hadn't fully entered the ox cart, so he reached out to grab the woman's arm, but he grabbed it empty, Zhang Wutao only felt an unbearable severe pain coming from his wrist, it turned out that his right hand was gone, and it was cut off by his wrist.
Zhang Wutao screamed in pain, and then with a flash of cold light, Zhang Wutao was kicked out and fell heavily to the ground, his left hand was gone, and the head on his neck was gone.
At this time, a very tall woman walked out of the ox cart, holding Zhang Wutao's head in her hand, the woman was Ying Caihe, how could Ying Caihe tolerate this man's rudeness to him, and cut off his claws with a knife.
Jiang Min secretly complained, didn't he say that he would start after all of them entered the customs?
All the soldiers in the pass were stunned, and Jiang Min shouted, "Do it!" ”
I saw groups of orchids in skirts coming out of the ox carts, carrying shields and short spears, where are they 'orchids', they are clearly groups of strong men with beards.
Immediately after that, the lids of the large wine barrels were lifted, and 1,500 soldiers came out of the large barrels, and slashed at the guards, as well as the charioteers, the men leading the mules, and the front and rear guards, a total of 2,500 scout soldiers.
They were all brave and good at fighting, killing a thousand soldiers guarding the pass, and there was no way to escape, so they knelt on the ground and surrendered.
Jiang Min had kicked Zheng Quan to the ground and ordered two orchid soldiers to tie him up.
This operation was a joint operation between the Jin Wei Mansion and the scout battalion, and there were some female warriors from the Jin Palace, who sat outside the ox cart to deal with enemy inspections, and a young woman Zheng Quan saw was a female warrior from the Jin Wei Mansion.
The commander of the scout battalion was called Xu Rui, a lieutenant general, and when he saw that the battle was almost over, he said to Jiang Min: "You can inform General Pei!" ”
Jiang Min looked around and asked, "Are there any enemy soldiers who have escaped?" ”
"I've confirmed that no soldiers escaped!"
Jiang Min nodded, waved his hand to a Jin Wei Mansion warrior, and the warrior understood, lit a torch on the city, and waved the torch.
Two miles away, Pei Xin led an army of 30,000 people who were ready, and when he saw the torches waving on the city tower, he immediately shouted: "March!" ”
The 30,000 army accelerated and rushed towards Hangu Pass, and the capture of Hangu Pass was a matter for the Jin Wangfu and the scout battalion, but it was Pei Xin's task to attack and annihilate the 20,000 enemy troops in Dakun City.
The battle was completely over in Hangu Pass, and more than 700 soldiers were captured in their armor, and they sat tremblingly and waited for it to be processed, and the soldiers of the scout battalion put the barrels back into the cart, and these props would be used later.
The 'orchids' resumed their women's clothes and were about to sit back in the ox cart, and Ying Caihe, who had not seen the end of the dragon, disappeared as usual, and Zhang Wutao's head was thrown to a female warrior of the Jin Wei Mansion, giving her the credit, Ying Caihe came on the orders of Guo Song, and this credit was meaningless to her.
Jiang Min is explaining to Zheng Quan, Zheng Quan is the key person in their plan to seize Dakun City, Jiang Min knows Zheng Quan's status very well, although the generals in the army look down on him from the bones, but Zheng Quan can fake the tiger, and it is completely possible to open the city gate.
Zheng Quan looked at Zhang Wutao's head in front of him, he trembled with fright, Jiang Min explained, and he agreed.
At this time, Pei Xin led the army into Hangu Pass, Xu Rui went up to report the situation, Pei Xin nodded, "Since you are ready, let's go!" ”
Jiang Min picked Zheng Quan up and said viciously: "I remind you one last time, if you want to live, do what I say honestly, I will let you go home afterwards, you dare to be the slightest bit uncooperative, your life will be explained here tonight!" ”
Zheng Quan said with a crying voice: "I promise to obey the order and don't dare to mess around!" ”
"Let's go!"
Jiang Min continued to move forward with the caravan, he escorted Zheng Quan, followed by two thousand soldiers led by Xu Rui, and Pei Xin led the army to follow far behind.
The huge caravan was walking in the long canyon, and two watchtowers had been killed by Xu Rui in advance.
Da Kun City is located in the northeast of Hangu Pass ten miles away, after the caravan walked for half an hour, an open field appeared in front of it, and the tall and majestic Da Kun City appeared in front of everyone.
Da Kun City is also a closed city, the city is tall and strong, cutting off the passage between the east and the west, it is more important than Hangu Pass, Hangu Pass only defends against the Western army, and Da Kun Pass is both east and west, can not only hinder the eastward advance of the eastern army, but also defend the western army eastward,
Da Kun Pass is very strictly managed, it is strictly forbidden for caravans to enter and leave the city at night, although Jiang Min is more special, but he still can't enter the city by himself, every time Zheng Quan takes him into the city at night, without Zheng Quan leading the way, their actions tonight will never be so smooth.
