Kamasaka.

In fact, this place has another name, called Kamasakatsu, so Kasaka Pass is often called Kamazu Pass, and Kabasakado will also be called Kamatsudo.

Zhao Kuo was riding a horse and leading a thousand cavalry under his command to gallop on Pujin Road.

Pujin Dao is the name of this road in the Three Jin Dynasty, including the Zhao State, and the name of the Qin State is called Liyang Dao.

Speaking of the origin of this Pujin Road, it really has some long-standing meaning, and it can even be traced back thousands of years.

This road has appeared as early as the Shang Dynasty, the ancestor of the Zhou Dynasty, King Wen of Zhou and the daughter of the Xin family when they married the daughter of the Xin family is this Pujin Road, and later when King Wen of Zhou attacked the Qi Kingdom, his army also passed through this Pujin Road.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, this Pujin Road became the main communication route between Qin and Jin, whether it was the Jin State or the Qin State invaded the Jin, the conquest between the two sides was inseparable from this road.

Due to the constraints of topographical conditions, the route of this Pujin Road (known as Liyang Road in Qin) runs eastward along the north side of Weishui, crosses the Yellow River and enters the east of the Jin River.

After that, you can go up along the Shushui River Valley, pass through the Jinyang Basin to Mobei, and even reach Yanguo through North Taihang.

Since taking control of Hedong, most of the Qin state's military operations against Zhao have been from Pujin Dao, including the famous Battle of Changping.

In addition, in the extremely famous battle of the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu Baishan Mountain, the main force of the Han Dynasty led by Liu Bang also went north from here to Pingcheng to face the Xiongnu army led by Mao Dunshan Yu.

It is precisely because this road is so important that the Kasakaguan and Kasakado areas in this road have become strategically important places.

According to the information obtained by Zhao Kuo, in a maximum of ten or eight days, the Yellow River will begin to usher in a thawing period.

Therefore, as long as the Pujin Pass is captured and the Pujin Ferry is controlled, even if there are thousands of troops and horses in the Qin Pass, it will not be able to cross the surging Yellow River and successfully land in Hedong.

This is a rare good weather, the heavy snow that has plagued Zhao Kuo and Zhao Jun for a long time completely stopped on this day, but the whirring cold wind still hit Zhao Kuo's face like a blade, making Zhao Kuo have a tingling feeling that he can't open his eyes.

Although there was some snow on the wide Kamazu Road, it did not affect the advance of the cavalry, and countless horses' hooves came to step on the snow, and the sound of hooves was like thunder, stirring up countless snowflakes.

In the wind and snow, a pass gradually appeared in front of Zhao Kuo.

The Kazumi Pass has arrived.

"Phew!" Zhao Kuo pulled the reins of the horse hard, causing the war horse under his crotch to gradually slow down.

A moment later, Zhao Kuo and the thousand cavalry under his command all stopped.

Looking at Pujin Pass in front of him, Zhao Kuo sighed with some disappointment.

This pass is surrounded by mountains and rivers, the terrain is dangerous, and the wall is full of dense Qin troops and towering heads.

Obviously, Qin Jun was already prepared for Zhao Kuo's arrival.

"It's still a step ...... slower"

Obviously, the news of the fall of the shore gate has reached Pujin Pass, and the Qin soldiers here have also made preparations.

If Zhao Kuo insisted on charging, then I am afraid that before he rushed to the wall, he would have been shot into a hedgehog.

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Kuo issued an order: "All turn around and find a place to camp!" ”

Since a surprise attack is already impossible, then of course Zhao Kuo can only wait for the Lecheng army behind him to arrive, and then continue to plan for Pujin Pass.

According to intelligence, there are 1,000 Qin troops in Pujin Pass today.

This thousand people may not sound like much, but all of them are the elite of the Qin State, and it is said that there are even several Qin Ruishi in it, which is not comparable to those rabble in the shore gate.

It can be said that if he didn't have at least 5,000 people in his hands, then Zhao Kuo would not have any thoughts of storming Pujin Pass at all.

Of course, if you can make a surprise attack, then even if there are 5,000 Qin troops in Pujin Pass, Zhao Kuo will dare to give it a try.

It's a pity that the chance for a surprise attack is gone.

Just as he was about to turn his horse back, Zhao Kuo's gaze suddenly fell on a certain Qin State officer on the wall.

Although he couldn't see the other party's face clearly because of the distance, Zhao Kuo's heart suddenly had a familiar feeling.

I seem to have seen each other somewhere.

Zhao Kuo snorted, suddenly raised his hand, and made a decapitation gesture towards the Qin State officer on the city wall.

Although I don't know why, Zhao Kuo has such an impulse in his heart to do so.

Zhao Kuo's action was naturally seen by Wang Qian, the two or five hundred lords of the Qin State on the city wall.

Yes, the one who led a thousand soldiers and horses to guard Pujin Pass was Wang Qian, who had fought with Zhao Kuo in the battle of Changping and almost killed Zhao Kuo twice.

Although Zhao Kuo did not recognize Wang Qian, the condescending Wang Jian recognized Zhao Kuo.

"It's actually this person......" Wang Jian couldn't help frowning.

For Zhao Kuo's ability, Wang Jian has a deep impression.

Not to mention the big trouble that night attack brought to the Qin army, that is, in the subsequent battle to defend Tunliu, if it wasn't for Zhao Kuo desperately dragging down the offensive of Wang Qian's troops at the last moment, then Tunliu would have fallen into the hands of the Qin army.

Wang Jian didn't expect that the two sides would meet again so soon.

Just when Wang Jian was distracted, Zhao Kuo had already led the cavalry under his command to turn their horses around and turn around to find the camp.

With the departure of Zhao Kuo and the others, the originally tense atmosphere in Pujin became a little relaxed.

The fall of Anmen City had already reached Wang Qian's ears a day earlier, so Wang Ji had been prepared for Zhao Kuo's arrival, so he was able to take defensive measures before Zhao Kuo even approached the city wall.

But even so, the moment he saw Zhao Kuo appear, Wang Jian immediately understood in his heart that the main force of the Hedong Qin army on the side of Anyi was in big trouble.

Even if Pujin Pass will not be conquered for a while, as long as this Pujin Road is cut off, Anyi will also be the back road.

Wang Jian let out a sigh of relief and began to issue a series of orders: "Pass the order, immediately send a team of 100 people to smash the ice, and be sure not to let the Zhao people have the opportunity to detour to the rear of the pass!" Immediately send a messenger to inform Xianyang and Anyi, and inform the king and the general of the situation here! The rotation of the city wall has been tripled, and all officers are not allowed to leave without reason, and violators will be dealt with by military law! ”

……

Regarding the result of the last duel, Wang Jian was actually very unwilling.

Obviously, victory is in sight, but because of the reinforcements, Zhao Kuo escaped alive!

The young two or five hundred lords of the Qin State made up their minds that this time, they would definitely not let the people of the Zhao State please him from his own hands!
