(Thank you SEE League for the heavy reward and monthly pass, this book has persevered with your support, thank you Ziyue, Heart Move, and incognito monthly pass and reward, let us go all the way!) )

The cold wind howled. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info.

Blowing through the passes, the cold snaps of the northern continent took the initiative during the February season, roaring out what little strength they had left, and then merging into the vast Indian Ocean, becoming a hurricane in an uncertain part of the ocean.

On the left side of Solomon's Pass, there is a gentle slope, the lower left of the slope, is a depression of only about 30 degrees, here from a distance, there is nothing special, but if you get closer and look closely, you will find that the depression is actually a cave, a huge mountain rock covers a large area, and below it, due to rain and weathering, gradually appear an empty half-cave.

Chu Lijin was lucky, because of Han Xin's support, he was given the task of attacking the pass again, and this time, he decided to avoid the truth and use this depression to make some articles.

Stratagem.

It is the most important means to defeat the opponent. After following Han Xin for a while, the Wuhuan people, who had a straightforward surname, finally learned to use other methods to fight.

Hiding soldiers in the depression.

This is the plan of Qiu Lijin and his subordinates after thinking hard, but the area of this cave is too small, even if it is crowded, it can only hide more than ten people, and it is impossible for this force to launch a battle to seize the pass, so the Wuhuan people decided to use the cover of night to dig the cave deeper, at least more than 100 people can hide.

Dig a trench in winter.

The extremely hard rocks and hard soil made Qiu Lijin regret it at the beginning, there was always a big gap between the imagination and the reality, and the Wuhuan people who lacked scientific and technological knowledge were at a loss.

Fortunately, at this time, Li Yuan sent Jia Yi to the front army, and after hearing about Qiu Lijin's difficulties, the Chinese army was subordinate to the engineer unit of the Qin State Army, and sent special iron digging tools, which were originally used for land plowing in winter.

Weather at the end of February.

The Suleyman Mountains are at the intersection of the climate of the sea and the continent, and the wind at the pass reaches six or seven at night, and the wind is tightened at the pass, just like a woman with a hoarse voice in a helpless **.

The Sunga soldiers in charge of the patrol shrank back and hid as much as possible in the leeward area, and they did not think that right under their noses, a group of earth rats were burrowing their burrows little by little, and then transporting the troops at the foot of the mountain in batches, which was slow and seemed stupid, because as long as the soldiers above leaned out half of their bodies, they could detect the movement in the depression.

The first night passed when the bowstring held by Qiu Lijin's hands was about to go numb, and although he was past the prime of life, Qiu Lijin's eyes and archery skills were still extremely accurate.

The eagle of the steppe, even at the last moment of his life, will not stop flapping his wings, and Qiu Lijin only hopes that this feat of the expedition to the south will leave his people with a chance to survive.

――。

Eastern foothills of Suleimani.

In early spring, the grass gradually sprouts from the hard soil, and as the dry season is about to pass, a few light rains after the convergence of cold and warm air currents bring the mountains back to life.

Twenty-five kilometres from the Solomon Pass is home to an unnamed tributary of the Indus River, which, due to the sparse forest vegetation of Mount Suleiman, has also been intermittent and has become a seasonal river, the riverbed of which becomes a passage during the dry season and a roaring river during the rainy season.

On the side of the river valley. A team that looked like a fleeing crowd was marching south along the river valley, and this team was none other than Feng Tang and his more than 2,000 elite men.

After two days of brazenly circumambulating in front of the Indian defenders at Solomon's Pass, Feng Tang, who predicted that the defenders would not move again, ordered to change his armor, put on the wide robes of the Persians, pretended to be a group of Persian rebels, and marched towards the hinterland of the former Mauryan Empire.

"Mudor, where are your people now?" Feng Tang, who seemed to be just hiding from direct sunlight, covered his face with a long scarf, leaving only a pair of eyeballs, plus more than a year of conquest in the Western Regions, which made him look rough, no different from the Persians, the Great Xia, and the Kangju.

"General, my men have reached the vicinity of Daro, where there is an elephant regiment of the Sunga people, and two infantry regiments, about five thousand people, but they are very lax in their defense, and they don't seem to care that we will suddenly appear!" The Persian general Mudor has been living a bit proudly recently.

His squad infiltrated the middle reaches of the Indus River and the area around Sindh in the lower reaches of the Dharo and lower reaches, posing as Rustam's rout, and ransacked several villages.

Not only did Rustam play a major role in the assassination of the giant chariot by Psyamida and Chayou, but as the Qin army approached, the pressure on the Sunga people increased, and at this time, they desperately wanted an ally to fight alongside them.

Originally, the most suitable allies of the Sunga people should be the Baicheng and Andaro people located in the Deccan Plateau, not only because these two tribes lived on the south side of the Indus River, but also because as the three pillars of the Mauryan Empire, they shared a common desire to resist foreign enemies.

But now, because of the assassination of the giant chariot, the Sunga, the Baichengan, the Andala and the declining Magadha have become incompatible, and it is a blessing that they do not fight, let alone fight together, so the Persians, who were originally not on the stage, have been valued by the Sunga, and even the group of pretending to be defeated with Mudor have also gained a great **.

"Darrow is an important city behind Solomon's Pass, if we want to cut off the supply of the pass, we must first disturb the guards of Darrow City, Mudor do you dare to sneak into the city, and then kill people and set fires, and make him fall for a while?" Feng Tang thought for a moment, and a resolute look appeared on his face.

If you want to make a fuss, you have to have a big one. Only in this way can the confidence of the Sunga people be shaken and forced to relax their support for the Solomon Pass, and the lax vigilance of Daluo City also moved Feng Tang's heart.

"General, what's so difficult about this, these days, we have been in and out of the city many times, those Sunga people only recognize gold coins, no matter who enters and leaves the city?" Mudor smirked, his curly hair swept back in the wind, revealing a deep scar on his forehead.

"Well, if this mission to attack Daluo City is excellent, you and your subordinates will be officially allowed to join the Great Qin army, this is the promise of His Majesty the Shenwu Emperor himself, how about it, get excited!" Feng Tang's faint tone was heard in Mu Duo's ears, but it was like a thunderbolt.

"General, is this true?" Mudor asked with an incredulous look in his eyes, his brown face flushing red. In the past few days of surrendering to the Qin State, Mu Dor has been trembling every day under the deterrence of the Qin army, if he did not know much about the strength of the Qin State before, this time he followed the Eastern Expedition to sweep India by the Qin army, which made him really feel the power of this eastern power.

Against the Qin State, Rustam, a madman, why didn't he die early, if it weren't for his ambition, the Persians would not have fallen to the point where they are now close to genocide. Fortunately, he Mudor recognized the opportunity quickly and surrendered to the Qin army early, otherwise, if he continued to follow Rustam, he would be killed one day.

In addition to rejoicing, Mudor also admired the generals of the Qin army even more, especially after seeing that there were soldiers of different races from Judea, Bactria, Anxi, and other places in the Qin army, since other tribes could, then the Persians could also join the Qin army.

After receiving the order from Feng Tang, Mu Duoer did not hesitate, and immediately turned back to the temporary station of his subordinates, he wanted to immediately tell the good news to his brothers, and Mu Duoer could not be excited, you must know that his rout army was at best a tool for the Qin army, and once the use value was gone, it was likely to be disbanded.
