Chapter 37: A Letter to the People of Great Qin

On the avenue on the south bank of the Yellow River, the dark and long canyon seems to open a drawer from the mountains, which is the world-famous Hangu dangerous road.

Because of its depth like a long box, the people of the time called it Hanya.

The Hangu Dangerous Road is located on the south bank of the Yellow River after it suddenly bends into an east-west flow, starting from the Kunshan Mountain in the east, and passing through the peach forest highlands where Kuafu died of thirst day by day.

West to Tongshui ferry, reckless and vast more than 100 miles. The high peaks on both sides of the canyon are absolutely gorgeous, steep and roundabout, a road winds and turns at the bottom of the valley, it is the only passage leading to Guanzhong in the east of the Kuoshan Mountain, known as the natural danger of Hangu.

The shore is high, the empty valley is deep, the gorge of the stream, the car is not square, and it is called the natural risk.

If you are asked to take a pill of mud, Dongfeng Hanguguan, the king of the picture will not succeed, and its disadvantages are enough to dominate!

This is Hangu Pass!

……

The thought flickered, and Fan Zeng was silent for a moment: "Young General, during the Western Zhou Dynasty, Hangu was irrelevant. After King Zhou Ping moved to Luoyang from the east of Haojing, he gave all the Weiping River, which was originally the land of the Zhou Dynasty, to the Qin tribe. ”

"After Qin became a vassal state, the world entered a turbulent Spring and Autumn Period. In order to prevent the Shandong princes from invading westward, the Qin State built a brick and stone castle at the east entrance of Hangu Tianwei, and called Hangu Pass after the place name of Hangu. ”

"This humble fortress has played a great role in the hundreds of years of war, and the rumbling chariots of the princes of Shandong have always been unable to cross this narrow and steep valley."

"With the hegemony of Qin Mugong and the expansion of the Qin State, Hangu Pass is also famous all over the world."

……

"Father, no matter how Hangu Pass is the first in the world, it's just that at this moment it is no longer brilliant, it is just a gateway to the remnants of the empire, and hundreds of thousands of my army will be able to fight down!"

Xiang Yu could hear Fan Zeng's jealousy, but he didn't think so, since the tyrant Yingzheng unified the world, Hangu Pass was located in the hinterland of Qin, and it had little effect.

The glory of the first level in the world in the past is long gone!

So Xiang Yu interrupted Fan Zeng, what he wanted was a way to break the pass, instead of listening to Fan Zeng talk about the origin of Hangu Pass, for a while, Xiang Yu was impatient in his heart.

……

"General, Yingbu asks to see you!"

Xiang Yu's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he suddenly spoke: "Come in!" ”

"No."

At this time, Yingbu strode over: "General, in this battle, the princes' coalition army lost 110,000 and wiped out 200,000 prisoner troops. ”

Frowning, Xiang Yu waved his hand: "Order the three armies, rest on the spot for three days, the army will come out of the camp, and the troops will go to Hangu Pass!" ”

"No."

……

At this moment, the black camp on the Xin'an battlefield completely disappeared, leaving only the various colored flags and tents that rose and fell along the hills.

The horn was melodious, the war horse Xiao Xiao, the Chu army and the princes' coalition army resumed the state of rectification, at this time, Xiang Yu ordered the army to rest on the spot for three days.

……

However, when Xiang Yu's army arrived at the rope pool, the news that the Chu army had killed 200,000 Qin soldiers swept the world like a storm, and everyone in the world was terrified and discolored.

Suddenly, the spines of the Shandong countries and the Great Qin of Guanzhong were cold!

……

Although the time is only half a month, Xiang Yu's might, the power of the world, the army is stationed in the rope pool, the Qin government and the opposition are in turmoil, and the princes of the world are open-minded.

Although there are only 300,000 troops, there is the potential of Mount Tai to the top!

……

"Your Majesty, there is news from Heibing Platform that Xiang Yu killed 200,000 prisoners in Xin'an Pit, Shaofu Zhang Han died in battle, Sima Xin and Dong Peng died in battle."

……

These words were thorough and sharp, Hu Hai suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and his whole face became hideous: "Xi, in the name of me, an edict was issued, announcing the people of Great Qin, and the news that Xiang Yu Xin'an killed 200,000 soldiers in the pit spread all over Guanzhong. ”

"At the same time, the edict was issued: Defend the old Qin, go to the national disaster together, and now that Great Qin is in danger, the thieves will inevitably point their fingers at Hanguguan, intending to kill Qin!"

"Now that Great Qin is at a disadvantage, if it comes to the last moment, it will only be necessary to fight for the lives of the old Qin people in order to survive the empire."

"Once that time comes, we will never be allowed to compromise halfway, knowing that the conditions for compromise halfway are the price of total surrender and total destruction."

"The people of the Great Qin Empire must recognize the meaning of the so-called last moment, as soon as the last moment comes, we can only win the final victory by sacrificing to the end, resisting thieves to the end, and "only by sacrificing to the end". ”

……

"Today, Shaofu Zhanghan surrendered, and the 200,000 army was killed by Xiang Yukeng in Xin'an, if you don't resist, you will become the second prisoner army! Today's Xianyang will become the Xin'an of the past! ”

"Now Xiang Yujian refers to Hangu Pass, leading 300,000 princes to join forces to attack Qin, I hereby issue an edict to Guanzhong in the name of Emperor Qin II: As soon as the war begins, that is, there is no distinction between north and south, no one is old or young, no matter who they are, they all have the responsibility of defending the land and resisting thieves, and they are determined to sacrifice everything!"

……

"Your Majesty, are you going to fight a bloody battle for the whole country?"

……

Xi's heart was shocked, and he couldn't help but put down the pen in his hand, and his eyes were full of horror when he looked at Hu Hai.

A nationwide bloody battle!

Once it breaks out, the old Qin people will probably die completely on the battlefield, and it will become a piece of history from now on.

……

"The Great Qin Empire is in danger, as an old Qin person, you should set foot on the battlefield for the Great Qin Empire, although you will die without regrets, as long as you need to, I can die!"

……

"Yes."

……

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and Xin'an killed and surrendered, not only the emotions of the Guanzhong crowd were stirred, but at the same time, the hatred of the old Qin people for the thieves in the Kanto region reached the extreme.

……

Wuguan.

……

"Pei Gong, Xiang Yu killed 200,000 prisoners in Xin'an, Zhang Han was killed in battle, Sima Xin was killed, and the princes' coalition army was killed 110,000."

"At the same time, Qin II promulgated a letter to the people of the Great Qin, announcing that if the war began, it would be that there was no distinction between north and south, no distinction between old and young, and no matter who they were, they all had the responsibility of defending the land and resisting the war, and they were all determined to sacrifice everything."

……

Xiao He's words made the faces of everyone in the hall change wildly, and Zhang Liang couldn't help it: "Xiang Yukeng's killing of 200,000 prisoners will inevitably anger the old Qin people in Guanzhong." ”

"At this moment, Hu Hai promulgated a letter to the people of Great Qin, this is basically a bloody war for the whole country!"

Liu Jida frowned and was silent in thought. The sound of fighting in Wuguan Jianlou came clearly, and he knew that there were millions of soldiers and civilians in Guanguan, and once the whole country fought a bloody battle, the consequences would be unimaginable.

……

"What do you think you should do?" Liu Ji finally raised his head and asked.

……

"Xiang Yu Xin'an killed 200,000 prisoners, and he was really vicious. However, Hu Hai's letter to the people of Great Qin is even more heartbreaking, so that the old Qin people in Guanzhong will definitely swear to the death. ”

Zhang Liang was worried: "Pei Gong, the old Qin people are brave and diligent, brave and invincible!" ”

"Besides, there is an army of 100,000 Jiuyuan led by Wang Ben, Marquis of Tongwu, and there is an army led by Hu Hai himself in Hangu Pass, and both roads into the pass are blocked."

"I thought that our army should sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and wait for the Hangu Pass to decide the winner, and then our army will make a decision."
