Chapter 1 Before the Hangu Pass

Fusu is dead!

This news spread to the wind throughout Sanchuan County, and then spread to the Guannei, the Qin Dynasty was panicked, especially the army's heart was shaken, but the emperor never showed up.

Xiang Yu was more and more sure that Fusu was indeed dead, and took this opportunity to storm Meng Tian, Meng Tian was at a disadvantage at the beginning, the army had no fighting spirit, and was defeated repeatedly, only by running in a battle, it was only supported by running in a battle.

However, three days later, Xiang Yu found that Meng Tian's defeated army was only a small part, but most of the soldiers and horses had withdrawn into Hangu Pass in batches.

At this time, Xiang Yu realized that he had been tricked, Meng Tian should have started to transfer the army, materials and officials of Sanchuan earlier, and these three days were just Meng Tian delaying time.

Angry Xiang Yu waved his troops to Hangu Pass, and successfully occupied all Sanchuan County, including Ao Cang in Ao Mountain, when he found the mountains of grain and grass piled up in Ao Cang, Xiang Yu was almost crazy with joy, with these grains and grass, he could fight with Meng Tian for a long time, anyway, Fu Su died, and the Qin army had no heart to fight.

In fact, before Li You's soldiers and horses of Sanchuan County plus the Northern Army that Meng Tian came to help, and then after removing the consumption, there are still 130,000 troops, which is not a big gap with Xiang Yu's current 180,000 troops, and it occupies the terrain of Hangu Pass, so it stands to reason that it should have the upper hand.

However, the death of the emperor seriously affected the morale of the army, and the officials in the pass were even more panicked, the supply of grain and grass was not complete, and the materials for guarding the city at Hangu Pass were insufficient, and Xiang Yu was currently beaten without the power to fight back.

"Meng Shuai, you say, can we escape this catastrophe?"

At this time, Li You was wearing blood-stained armor, standing on the Hangu Pass and looking at the camp of the Chu army in the distance, his expression was gloomy, in ancient times, imperial power was supreme, the emperor died like the sky was falling, and now the Qin Dynasty is in turmoil.

Meng Tian glanced at Li You, his expression was not good-looking, Li Youshang was like this, but he could think of the mood of the soldier.

"Master Hou is almost here with his troops, everything is in his calculations, rest assured, Xiang Liu will be defeated this time!" Meng Tian said leisurely.

Li You's expression was stunned, and his low mood suddenly became excited, but he knew that Zhao Jun was powerful, and it was impossible for Meng Tian to let go of empty words.

However, when he thought of the sentence 'everything was in his calculations', Li You's heart moved again, was the emperor's death also in his expectation?

Shaking his head fiercely, Li You felt that he shouldn't think about it, and the one who helped Su die and supported Daqin was none other than the Hou Ye-

In a valley in Anyi County, Hedong County, 120,000 elite Qin troops were assembled, except for Tang Li, LΓΌ Ze and Yu Ziqi who stayed behind, Cao Wuxian, Yingbu, Guan Ying, Han Xin, Hu Hai and Bo Langjie went out with the Zhao army.

Zhou Chang rode to the valley, went straight to where Zhao Jun was, and said: "Master Hou, now Xiang Yu is rushing to attack Hangu Pass, the defensive situation of Hangu Pass is very critical, and another general under Xiang Yu, Long You, led 60,000 soldiers and horses to stay in Aocang. ”

Zhao Jun nodded after hearing this, and Guan Ying analyzed: "Master Hou, I'm afraid that Xiang Yu guessed that we came to help, so he left 60,000 soldiers and horses to intercept our back road." ”

"What then?" Cao Wuxian said urgently: "Boss, you said that Ao Cangke has concentrated half of the world's grain and grass, and it must not fall into the hands of the Chu army." ”

Yingbu analyzed: "Xiang Yu expected us to come to help, but he definitely didn't expect us to arrive in such a short time, and we also made a detour from the north of the Yellow River. ”

Han Xin agreed: "That's right, we can fight a time difference, now we can attack Aocang to the southeast, and Hangu can be reinforced, this is an opportunity, no matter which side is attacked, we can attack it unprepared, with the advantage of our cavalry and sword and shield soldiers, we can completely destroy the withering and decay and defeat it, and when the other side rushes to help, we can also calmly arrange." ”

"Pass the order to go down, rest for half a day, gallop to the aid of Hangu Pass, and attack Xiang Yu." There was a hint of excitement in Zhao Jun's deep voice, the final battle was coming.

Hu Hai was a little reluctant and said: "Second brother, what about the grain and grass in Aocang, it is nearly half of our Daqin's belongings, in case the dragon and the dog jump off the wall in a hurry, it will be miserable......"

Han Xin said at this time: "It doesn't matter, as far as I know, Long is Xiang Yu's strong general cronies, and he is very loyal to Xiang Yu, if he hears that Xiang Yu is in trouble, he will definitely go all out to rescue him as soon as possible, and before the outcome is decided, no one will be willing to destroy such a large amount of grain and grass." ”

Yingbu also nodded and said: "Ao Cang is on top of Ao Mountain, where the terrain is dangerous, and the dragon will inevitably defend itself by the mountain, at that time the advantage of our cavalry will be gone, if we can't take Ao Mountain quickly, we will definitely give Xiang Yu time to help, so we can only rush to the aid of Ao Cang and defeat Xiang Yu first." ”

Zhao Jun smiled: "Okay, Hu Hai, let Long He keep it for us for a few days." ”

"I listen to my second brother." Although Hu Hai is a little muddy, he still has understanding.

Outside Hangu Pass, more than 100,000 Chu troops set up a formation, frantically attacking Hangu Pass from morning to noon, shouting and killing shook the sky, morale was high, like countless ants gnawing on the hard stone of Hangu Pass, and Xiang Yu was beaten by the war drums and personally put on armor to attack the city several times, bringing the Chu army's offensive to one after another.

I have to say that Xiang Yu's combat talent is very high, the tactical command has almost reached the realm, and he has unparalleled prestige in the Chu army, although the corpses are all over the field at this time, and the blood stains the wall red, but the Chu army is still high-spirited, as if as long as Xiang Yu is there, there is no hurdle in the world that cannot be stepped on, and Xiang Yu is the god of war in their hearts.

Hangu Pass was originally a dangerous pass, but it was crumbling to be killed by Xiang Yu, and the Qin army, which was already disheartened, was beaten and had no power to fight back, so he could only use his life to pile up.

"Kill, poof!"

Meng Tian stabbed a Chu military captain to death with a sword, his eyes were bloodshot, at this time he had to admire Xiang Yu, although the Qin army was disheartened, but looking at the world, except for the soldiers and horses under the command of Zhao Jun, who would dare to say that there is an elite of the Northern Army? However, Xiang Yu was actually able to level the casualty ratio in the attacking position.

The battle lasted until noon, Xiang Yu finally retreated, but he did not return to the camp, but directly used food outside the range of the Qin army, and the hot meat was constantly transported out of the barracks.

Closing the gate upstairs, Li You walked to Meng Tian's side with an extremely ugly face, and said worriedly: "Meng Shuai, if we go on like this, we won't be able to hold out for two days." ”

Meng Tian's expression moved, but the corners of his mouth suddenly smiled and said: "The most powerful thing under the command of Shenwu Hou is not soldiers and horses, but scouts and intelligence, do you think he doesn't know about our situation?" Behold, he will be there by tomorrow morning at the latest, and the boy is in the shadows. ”

Li You was stunned when he saw Meng Tian's expression, and then he remembered that Zhao Jun was born in the Northern Army, and he was also Meng Tian's beloved apprentice, but since Fusu ascended the throne, Meng Tian deliberately kept a distance from Zhao Jun for the sake of loyalty, in fact, he was very conflicted in his heart, and now that Fusu is dead, Meng Tian may have regrets, but more joy, after all, from a series of things, Zhao Jun is the best candidate to stabilize the big tree of the Qin Dynasty.

Thinking of this, Li You also smiled, when Fusu was there, his father was suppressed, as long as he could get through this pass, when Zhao Jun returned to the pass, with his relationship with Zhao Jun, he would not worry that the glory of the Li family could not be continued. (To be continued.) )
