Chapter 247: Capture Gubeikou

Two days later, Han Yuqing came back with the personal guards and told Qin Guan that the things had been hidden, Qin Guan looked at the red dot on the map, nodded, and put the map into the space.

"Young master, 130,000 stones of food have been prepared, enough for us to eat and feed the horses for more than two months, and other supplies have also been prepared." Xiong Da reported.

"Young master, now our soldiers are all one person and two horses, and the entire Great Zhao Kingdom is not as extravagant as ours." Xiong Erdao.

"General, more than 50,000 catties of gunpowder have been prepared, and all the materials of Xijin Mansion have been collected, and so much has been made."

Qin Guan nodded, it should be almost enough.

The last time I attacked Xijin Mansion, I probably used more than 20,000 catties of gunpowder, and there were still 10,000 catties left, and this kind of thing was naturally more and more for Qin Guan.

Xijin Mansion is moving forward, there is no bigger city, and it is difficult to replenish supplies, so Qin Guan scavenged the entire Xijin Mansion this time, and replenished all the materials that can be replenished.

Qin Guan had received a secret report from Jinling that the emperor was ready to promote his father Qin Zhang, and he also gave his mother and grandmother the title of wife.

Qin Guan was still quite satisfied with this reward, and he thought that his father, grandmother, and mother should also be very happy.

Inside the tent, all the generals were there, Qin Guan pointed to the map and said, "We have been repairing in Xijin Mansion for seven days, and the supplies are ready, it's time to go." ”

"I'm going to cross Danzhou to the foot of the Great Wall, and the Liao State is also heavily guarded on the Great Wall, so I'm going to go here," Qin said, pointing to a place on the map, with the name Gubeikou on it.

Thundered.

The army of Zhao Guobei Road was opened, this time no one was left, and they directly evacuated Xijin Mansion, and after Zhao Yanshou knew the news, he cried with joy, "Oh my God, they are finally gone, and their little life is saved." ”

But then he was worried again, how should the Xijin Mansion be managed in the future, he didn't have a single soldier in his hands, not even a single servant, and there were still more than 100,000 Liao people in the Xijin Mansion, and I was afraid that he would be busy in the future.

When they knew that after the Zhao army withdrew, the Liao people in Xijin Mansion were all thankful, and those Zhao troops did not kill in Xijin Mansion, which was already a great favor for them.

In fact, the biggest reason why Qin Guan did not slaughter the city was because most of the people in Xijin Mansion were Han Chinese.

Yes, they are all Han Chinese.

This is the territory of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, which was the territory of the Han people a hundred years ago, and most of the people here are still of Han blood.

Those Khitans, Xi people, Bohai people, and Jurchens are only a few.

Qin Guan felt that this reason was enough.

However, everyone in Xijin Mansion remembered one name, Qin Guan.

On this day, he broke through the Xijin Mansion and wiped out the 50,000 troops of the Liao State, which made the Liao General Yelu Wizard hate.

Danzhou, that is, the Miyun of later generations.

The Liao people who had escaped from Xijin Mansion had already fled sporadically before, passing through Danzhou, and told the officials and generals on duty about the battle situation in Xijin Mansion, and the total number of soldiers in Danzhou Mansion was only 2,000 soldiers, how could they stop the 40,000 troops of Zhao State.

As soon as the two of them are combined, simply, take the people and escape.

Qin Guan rushed to Danzhou with the Northern Route Army, and prepared to break through Danzhou City in a big battle, but found that the city gate was wide open, Qin Guan didn't believe in any empty city plan, and sent people in to check, and found that the entire Danzhou City was almost empty.

Except for those who really couldn't afford to escape, almost everyone else ran away.

Ask those who didn't leave, it turns out that they all left three days ago, and they should have already passed the Great Wall.

The next day, the army continued its departure and finally reached the Great Wall.

The Great Wall is thousands of miles long, speaking of which, there are more than 200 passes in the Great Wall, including the most famous eight passes, Shanhaiguan, Juyong Pass, Bauhinia Pass, Yanmen Pass, Niangzi Pass, Yatou Pass, Jiayu Pass, Yumen Pass, and the rest are some passes, such as the one in front of you, Gubeikou.

Gubeikou is the fortress of the Great Wall between Shanhaiguan and Juyongguan, and is the "throat" of the Liaodong Plain and Inner Mongolia leading to the Central Plains.

In modern times, Qin Guan has never been here, but in the movies, he has seen films about the battle for Gubeikou, such as "Assembly Number".

The Gubeikou Pass is not tall, it is estimated to be four or five meters high, and there are continuous mountains on both sides, and the Great Wall extends to both sides, like a winding dragon.

Gubeikou defender Shi Mecta had already received the battle report, knowing that the Zhao people were attacking the north and were likely to pass through these passes, so he had already made preparations, and Gubeikou had already hoarded 6,000 defenders here, and mobilized the people around the Great Wall Pass.

The terrain of Gubeikou is narrow, what if there are many Zhao soldiers, he can't open it at all, he can only compete with them for this section of the Gubeikou Pass, Smecta has received a military order, and the general Yelushi has led 20,000 imperial forest troops to rush here, as long as it takes two days, as long as he can hold for two days, the army can arrive, and the Zhao army will definitely be killed at that time.

Smecta wore battle armor, kept patrolling the city, and shouted loudly: "Cheer me up, as long as the people of Zhao dare to attack the city, they will kill me fiercely, arrows, rolling wood, stones, and throw them out for me, as long as we hold on for two days, and when the Royal Forest Army arrives, we will be a great achievement, and everyone will be rewarded at that time." ”

Qin looked at the narrow Gubei Pass and asked Xiong Da, "How are you going to fight?" ”

Xiong Da looked at it, and then said: "Young master, I am going to use a small catapult to shoot the explosives bag over, and directly blow them up, and then the archers and machine gunners will cover, and the soldiers will rush up, as long as the first wave rushes up, we will win." ”

Qin Guan smiled.

Xiong Da's brain is indeed very smart, and he learned how to use new weapons so quickly, such as explosive packs, heavy machine guns, plus archers, and ladders to enter the city, and there is no sense of disobedience at all.

"Just do what you say." Qin Guan ordered.

A small catapult was pushed forward, this kind of small catapult is not like those big catapults, the length and width are very similar to the ordinary cars of later generations, there are four wheels on it, you can push and run, it is very convenient, use a winch to get on the strength, a spoon-like place to put stone bullets, a step on the machine can be launched, some similar to the eight-bull crossbow.

However, this kind of small trebuchet also has a very fatal disadvantage, that is, the range is short, the range is only two or three hundred meters, and it is within the shooting range of the enemy's bow and arrow, so when using it, you need to pay attention to the enemy's bow and arrow shooting to protect the safety of the trebuchet.

"Start attacking."

"Rush."

Hulala, the soldiers of the Northern Route Army formed a team of two and ran forward pushing a small trebuchet.

As soon as the Liao defenders saw that the Zhao people were coming, they hurriedly shot arrows, and the soldiers of the Northern Route Army who took the lead raised the thick wooden skun in their hands and blocked the arrows that were shooting.
