Wuguan is located in Shangluo County, belongs to Sizhou, since ancient times, Wuguan Road is as an important hole between Chang'an to Jinghan and Jianghuai, it starts in Chang'an, through Lantian and Shangluo, to Nanyang County Sui (now Henan Neixiang) Deng (now Henan Dengzhou) line.

In addition to stationing 20,000 naval troops in Xiangyang, and Chen Xi recruited troops and horses, and made a gesture of attacking northwest Henan, Wei Feng did not go to Xiangyang after going north from Jiangling, but walked through the Wudang Mountains with difficulty, and only entered the territory of Weixing County after more than ten days, at this time, Wuguan was already close at hand.

Although Wei Feng tried his best to avoid revealing his whereabouts, when he reached a distance of dozens of miles from Guancheng, he would have to step on the Wuguan Road, which had no choice, because there were mountains and mountains all around, and only a mountain path stretched along the mountainside.

Looking at the hazy shadow of the mountain in the distance, Wei Feng's brows furrowed, it was now the middle of December, and the snow was piled up on the mountain.

Zhang Ning couldn't help but say: "General, the terrain on the west side of Wuguan is open, the east side is high and the valley is deep, and the individual places are narrow enough to only allow one bicycle to walk, and there are beacons on both sides of the road. ”

Liu Xingnan took his little hand and said, "General, no one has passed the customs in winter, otherwise you can pretend to be merchants and sneak into the city." ”

Wang Zhenwei was moved in his heart, and then said: "The lady of the Liu family is reasonable, but there are no merchants, we can pretend to be merchants, change into civilian clothes, bring two or three hundred people and cars, as long as you enter any of the two stone forts in front of the pass, and block the city gate on the spot." At the same time, cast wolf smoke to invite the army to help, if you can hold on for half a day, it will not be a problem to break a stone fort, and then attack the other one with all your might, and after the two are in hand, then attack the city! ”

Wei Feng couldn't help but light up, although this method was a bit risky, but it was successful, and it was completely possible to take the martial pass lightly, the key was that the road was too narrow. Only one rider is allowed. The open space in front of the two stone forts is also limited, and only three to five ballistas can be arranged, which cannot be used at all, and one of the stone forts must be attacked first. Then set up ballistas at the head of the city. Capture the other one.

If you don't want to take risks. It's not easy to sneak attack, on the mountain road for dozens of miles, there is a beacon on both sides of the mountain every few miles. Attacking with soldiers and horses in a grand manner, I can only tell the other party that I am coming and prepare in advance.

On the one hand, it is the middle of winter, the mountain road is slippery, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss, on the other hand, who knows if the defenders of the road will do something on the road?

When Wei Feng was pondering the pros and cons, Wang Zhen said again: "General, the last general is willing to lead two hundred brothers to seize the gate!" ”

After a little hesitation, Wei Feng nodded and said: "Okay, I will allocate two hundred male and female guards to you, be careful, don't do anything, return immediately, let's think of other ways." ”

"Yes!" For the strength of Wei Feng's personal guards, Wang Zhenwei had seen it, and immediately made up his mind and took the order to leave.

Not long after, Wang Zhenwei took a hundred guards headed by Zhang Ning and a hundred people from the dominatrix, and dozens of cars drove with some food and cloth as cover, but more were still arrows, and slowly marched into the Wuguan Road.

The remaining 40,000 troops rested on the spot and waited patiently.

Wang Zhenwei is the mountain that he entered in the morning, waiting left and right, and there is no wolf smoke rising, Wei Feng gradually rose a trace of bad premonition in his heart, close to the evening, some figures appeared at the entrance of the mountain road, and when he looked closely, it was Wang Zhenwei and a group of guards, some of them were still injured, as for the car and horses, they were all gone, and they could be guessed without thinking about it, and the seizure of the fort gate was declared a failure.

The group walked over dejectedly, and Wang Zhen said with a guilty face: "General, the last general is incompetent and failed to capture the stone fort, please punish the general!" ”

"Oh? What's going on? Wei Feng asked lightly.

"That's the case" with Wang Zhenxi's speech, everyone understood the reason, this is no wonder Wang Zhenwei and the guards, it is really the defense of Wuguan is impeccable, there are two stone forts on both sides of the mountain road on the most and back mountain in front of Wuguan Pass, the vehicle must stop for routine inspection, according to Wang Zhenevil's expectation, it is the moment the Qin army opens the door to rush into the fort gate, take it by surprise, and build internal and external fortifications according to the vehicles.

For the perseverance, Wang Zhenevil is still very confident, because the stone fort is built with a mountain road, the front and back are mountains, the trebuchet, bed crossbow, rushing car and other heavy weapons are difficult to transport into the fort, the enemy and us are fighting by the bow and crossbow, with the sharp crossbow of the side, as long as the arrows are not lacking, you can hold on to the arrival of the follow-up army, with the superior strength of the stone fort, and then the army into the canyon, in the valley in front of the pass to deploy troops, you can capture the Wuguan in one go.

But the Qin army didn't even open the door, the two stone forts were densely covered with archers, and two people were hung down by the bamboo basket to check, when they saw this frame, there was no hope of seizing the city gate, and forcibly rushing through the path between the forts could only be an act of looking for death, so Wang Evil Town took the lead, and everyone immediately retreated to the original road, and the car drove the horse naturally too late to take it away, and the horse had no choice but to throw it to the Qin army in vain, but the car driver took into account the possibility of failure, so each car was piled up with some fire oil and firewood, which was ignited in turn when retreating, and the injuries on this other person's body, He was wounded by an arrow at the head of the city when he lit the fire.

Maybe there were burning cars blocking the way, or maybe it was difficult to enter the customs and get out, but the Qin army did not pursue.

After listening quietly, Wei Feng couldn't wait to dig up the corpses of Huan Xuan and even Yin Zhongkan and chop them into meat sauce! In the third year of Longan, the three counties of Hongnong, Huashan and Shangluo were lost in the hands of Yin Zhongkan, and in the next few years, a large area of land east of Wuguan and the north of Xiangyang was lost in the hands of Huan Xuan.

Huan Wen's first northern expedition to attack the city of Chang'an, the root of which is that Shangluo County, including Wuguan, was in the hands of the Jin court, and the forward city was only a hundred miles away from Chang'an.

Wei Feng unconsciously looked at the shadow of the black mountain, but Liu Xingnan said: "General, at present, you only have two choices, one is to withdraw the troops, and the other is to forcibly attack, you should weigh it yourself!" ”

Wang Zhenwei gritted his teeth, blushed and arched his hand: "General, at that time, the last general proposed to attack Wuguan, but he didn't expect that the guards of the Qin State would be so tight, this is because the last general did not anticipate the enemy, and the army was blocked outside the pass, and the last general was willing to be punished!" ”

Wang Zhenwei bowed his head, looking like he confessed his guilt, he was not afraid of being punished, the key was that he said too much, he couldn't afford to lose that person, he swore that he could take down Wuguan at the beginning.

Wei Feng waved his hand and said: "General Wang, hurry up, Wu Hou is still a mixed winner, let alone you and me?" A wise man thinks a thousand times, and there must be a mistake, who can really anticipate the enemy before the opportunity? The so-called anticipation of the enemy's first opportunity, is nothing more than to force the enemy to drill into the pocket laid by his own side, this attack on Wuguan, the momentum is not in my hands, it is nothing to be blocked for a while, there is no need to mention the words of punishment, but you talk about it, where should we go next? ”

"Thank you, General!" After Wang Zhen thanked him evilly, he pondered: "It is not impossible to attack forcibly, but it will take time, and the casualties will be extremely heavy, and there is even the possibility of not being able to attack for a long time, so the last general thinks that it is better to move to the east and attack the twelve counties such as Nanxiang, Shunyang, and Xinye with a large army. ”

Wei Feng frowned, and asked rhetorically: "Even if the twelve counties are recaptured, Yao Xing will still send troops from Wuguan at any time, forcing me to have to deploy a large number of troops in the twelve counties, if this is the case, I would rather not take it, besides, Guanzhong is a place of four stops, if you want to destroy the Qin State, you must knock on the pass, and the rest of the Sanguan, Xiaoguan, and Tongguan are in danger, and they are better than Wuguan, especially Tongguan, which is the first Xiongguan in the world, and the difficulty of attacking is far better than Wuguan!"

Since Yongzhou does not work, attacking Qinzhou can only be sent by Hanzhong, only to attack Qinzhou with soldiers and horses all the way out of Qishan to attack Qinzhou, I am afraid that it will repeat the mistakes of Wuhou and Jiang Wei!

Therefore, Wuguan will be fought sooner or later, taking advantage of the imminent outbreak of the Qin and Wei wars, it is better to fight late than early, today I have 40,000 troops in my hands and retreat, he will continue to avoid Xiongguan in the future? Since I was appreciated by Chu Fujun and appointed as the Sima of the Yixing Army, I have never retreated in the face of strong enemies!

A person's life, is like a boat against the current, do not advance or retreat, at this time it is difficult to move the division to seize the twelve counties, the future attack on Xiongguan will be difficult to fear, sooner or later I will lose the heart of ambition, I can not retreat, do not break the martial arts, never return to the division! ”

Suddenly, everyone's hearts were full of blood, and a cold breath arose!

Wang Zhenwei couldn't help but give a deep salute: "The general's pride and ambition impressed the last general, and the last general is willing to ask for his life to be the striker, and he will attack Wuguan tonight, and the last general also made an oath that if he does not break Wuguan, he will bury this life between the mountains and mountains!" ”

Everyone looked at Wei Feng in unison, and the heart of the war was undisguised, but Wang Daolian, Chen Maiden and Liu Xingnan exchanged suspicious looks, this is not the Wei Feng they know, Wei Feng's self-proclaimed face of a strong enemy is indeed true, but it is not a hard fight, but a trick to deal with it, is this person changed his character?

Sure enough, Wei Feng shook his head and said: "Wuguan has to be attacked, but we must avoid unnecessary casualties, Wuguan is located on the bank of Danshui, you have approached the stone fort in front of the pass, and after the stone fort is the city of Wuguan Pass, let me ask you, has anyone observed the terrain near Wuguan?" ”

"This" Wang Zhenwei showed a look of ridicule, if you want to talk about observation, he really ignores it, although he is quite conceited, he is not a personal guard, he has not been trained in this area, and he does not have the awareness to observe details.

Zhang Ning glanced at Wang Zhenwei and arched his hand: "General, the last general has secretly climbed to a high place to observe for a while, after a smooth road through the stone fort, Wuguan is built on a relatively flat high ground between the canyons, surrounded by water on three sides, surrounded by mountains on one side, the city is built of mountain stones, two zhang high, three hundred zhang wide from east to west, and about two hundred zhang wide from north to south.
