Chapter 45: A Breakthrough Strategy!

At this moment, Xiang Yu felt a little regretful in his heart, and killed 200,000 prisoner soldiers, which not only made millions of soldiers and civilians in Guanzhong hate, but also helped Hu Hai a lot.

Moreover, in that battle, the alliance of the princes lost 110,000 people, and the power was greatly reduced.

Otherwise, with Zhang Han's 200,000 prisoner army, it could completely exhaust the physical strength and patience of Wang Ben's 100,000 Jiuyuan army, and finally the Chu army came out and won the final victory.

It's just that there is no regret medicine in the world, and the remorse in Xiang Yu's heart disappeared without a trace as soon as he appeared.

……

"The reason why Hangu Pass is called the first pass in the world is because this Xiongguan Pass has never been broken head-on by any country."

Xiang Yu's expression was solemn: "In history, the only one who captured Hangu Pass in the military battle was Wu Qi, the general of the Wei State who created the famous Wei Wushu at that time. ”

"When it was time, it was also the one who first seized the land west of the river, and then pressured the Qin army to withdraw from Hangu Pass."

……

Xiang Yu's words were loud, making the generals of the Kwantung countries present frown, and Hangu Pass was the biggest obstacle in front of them.

Now Wang Ben, the Marquis of Tongwu of the Great Qin Empire, led the army of 100,000 Jiuyuan to the south, undoubtedly giving wings to this roadblocker.

The tiger flies into the sky, just ask who in the world can stop it!

……

Fan Zeng glanced at the battle map of the world's army, and then said: "The terrain of Hangu Pass is extremely special, stuck in the continuous mountains of the Shaanmo Mountain Range and the Kunshan Mountain, and it is not in the mountain pass, but two or three miles behind the entrance of the canyon. ”

"Moreover, the three major plateaus of Kuoshan, Taolin Heights and Shaanxi Mo are entangled and horizontal, with a radius of nearly thousands of miles."

"Only the Kuafu Mountain in the Taolin Heights is known as a wide circle of 300 people, and the Shaanmo Mountain Range in the north of Hangu Pass is even more alpine and continuous."

"The river rushes in the middle of it, and the mountains on both sides of the river are stacked, and the highest mountain peak is as high as a thousand thousand. So the mountains are ringed. The forest is vast and inaccessible, and it has become an insurmountable vast natural danger between the Central Plains and Qinchuan. ”

Fan Zeng's white hair was pale, and he pointed to the world's military contention: "From the western part of the Central Plains to enter Guanzhong, there is only one passage through Hangu Pass. ”

"In the history of the Qin State, the kings of the past dynasties made great repairs to the Hangu Pass, except for the Guancheng, all of which were replaced by long stone bars."

"It is also a great improvement to Hangu Pass, extending the wall of Guancheng to the valley on both sides of the bank for fifteen miles, becoming a small Great Wall with Guancheng as the core."

"At the top of the mountain at both ends of the Great Wall, two beacon towers are set up, once there is an enemy situation, the two wolf smoke rising into the sky are clear at a glance in the Lantian camp in Guanzhong."

"On the Great Wall, the female wall battlements are connected with the stone city wall, and the arrow holes are dense and unusually strong. Every three feet, there are neatly stacked stones of different sizes and thick rolling logs with smooth polishing. ”

"Every five zhang, there are powerful crossbows attached to huge wooden frames, and there is also a stone house where long-range arrows are stored. Between the hill and the stone house, there is a neat weapon rack. ”

"Once there is a war, in addition to the weapons in the hands of the soldiers, the weapon racks are also full of weapons, and there will never be a situation where the sword is curled and there is nowhere to change."

……

Fan Zeng was silent for a while, and said word by word: "Once it is time of war, the old Qin people in Guancheng will immediately gather, the strong will form a carrying team, and the old and weak women and children will cook for the army. ”

……

With Fan Zeng's narration, the entire princes' coalition army tent, quiet falling leaves can be heard. At this moment, they understood what the first level in the world was.

I understand the fundamental reason why in the hundreds of years of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, no country can break through the Hangu Pass head-on.

The first level in the world, worthy of the name!

Hangu Pass is no longer a simple pass, but a war barrier, and under the support of such a long-term and carefully constructed defensive barrier, it can be described as impregnable.

Fan Zeng took a deep look, stunned by the generals of the coalition army: "Generals don't have to doubt its authenticity, when Zhang Han surrendered, the old man expected that it would inevitably pass through Hangu Pass, and he specially learned about it from Zhang Han." ”

"Even if after the First Emperor, the role of Hangu Pass is greatly reduced, but it will not lose the prestige of the first pass in the world!"

……

"Ladies and gentlemen, what the Asian father said is true, Hangu Pass is the first military barrier in the world, but our army's 300,000 swords are pointed at the pass, and Hangu Pass has never been broken head-on, but it does not mean that it cannot be broken."

Xiang Yu smiled and said, "Now that the violent Qin is falling apart, the pass is empty, and only the 50,000 army led by Hu Hai is guarding the pass and blocking Liu Ji. ”

"At this moment, there are only Wang Ben's 100,000 original elites in Hangu Pass, but this time is different from the past, Wang Ben led the army out, for the sake of the Great Qin Empire, he will inevitably seek stability."

"For the Qin army, the safe method of war is to occupy the right time and place, and ambush the army in the mountains and forests on both sides of Hangu Pass, and now the city is pretending to be calm, but it is just a plan to lure me into an ambush!"

……

Tian An's eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized: "The general is saying that the Qin army is ambushed in the mountains and forests on both sides of Hangu Pass?" ”

"In addition, what is the way, the army of one hundred thousand nine plains will not be able to go to the sky!"

Xiang Yu's statement was unanimously agreed by the coalition of princes. Yingbu was excited: "In this case, how can our army break it?" ”

Xiang Yu pointed at Fan Zeng, and the corners of his mouth rose: "This is up to my father!" ”

Seeing this scene, Yingbu and Tian An and others said: "The general said: The military division has a clever plan, and we will charge into battle!" ”

Hearing this, Xiang Yu suddenly came to his senses, turned his head to Fan Zeng, and said, "Father, let's start!" ”

Fan Zeng didn't smile anymore, Huo Ran got up and pointed to the big picture of sheepskin nailed to the big board in front of the handsome case: "The soldiers are divided into three ways, the first way, the three armies of Qi, Wei and Zhao attacked Hangu Pass head-on, and they didn't ask for a day, but they couldn't clone if they wanted to stick to the Qin army." ”

"The second way, Han Yan's first section, went out of Kunshan in the southeast, made a detour into Wuguan, and cooperated with Liu Ji's army to break through the pass. Enter the hinterland of Guanzhong and flank the Qin army from behind. ”

"On the third road, the main force of the Chu army held outside the Hangu Pass, one intercepted the fleeing Qin army, and the other did not let the Qin army steal out of Shandong, if so, there was a chance of victory."

……

Fan Zeng's words, although they were not commanding, were also full of ambition, and for a while, they were full of spirit.

What's more, Fan Zeng is the military advisor of the Chu army and the second father of Xiang Yu, the general of the princes' coalition army, and his words, to a certain extent, can represent Xiang Yu.

"I think it works!" Tian An took the lead in expressing his position and agreed with Fan Zeng's plan.

"Long live the military advisor!"

Wei Bao and the others were even more excited, and shouted in unison, the heart of victory immediately returned, Fan Zeng was so assigned, if he could break through Hangu Pass first, it would naturally be the first to destroy Qin.

The king of Chu Xiongxin's way: Those who enter the customs first, the edict of the king, the people of the world still remember it clearly, and the generals present are naturally eager for the first work.

Tian An smiled and said: "The army is fighting, it is rare to have this consensus, please give the general an order!" ”
