Shi Jian's death was indeed as Ran Min had predicted, and there was a series of chain reactions.

In the first month, Yao Yizhong, the king of Yong, claimed to have obtained Shi Jian's "blood edict", in which he denounced Ran Min's various crimes, and asked the people of the world to jointly crusade against the rebellious ministers and thieves Ran Min and restore Zhao Jiangshan.

After Yao Yizhong got the "blood edict", he cried so much that he almost fainted. Subsequently, Yao Yizhong summoned all the civil and military forces of the Yongguo Kingdom, ascended the altar to worship the sky, denounced Ran Min's crimes, promulgated the proclamation, and gave Shi Jian the nickname "Xian".

At the same time, Yao Yizhong also sent invitations to Qin, Liang, Dai, Yan, Jin, and even the slap-sized Qiu Chi State, asking all countries to send troops together to kill the traitor Ran Min!

King Puhong of Qin quickly responded, declaring war on Wei and sending troops to join Yao Yizhong's army at Tongguan. Zhang Jun, the king of Liang, did not know why, and had no intention of declaring war on Wei. ァ新ヤ(8)1 Chinese 網ωωω.χ8.1zщ.còм

At the beginning of February, Acting King Tuoba Shiyijian, King Murong Hao of Yan and the Jin court all declared war on Wei and sent troops, but none of them acted rashly!

And the eyes of the people of the world are on the land of Hedong, if nothing else, the alliance of Qin and Yong should break out a big war with the Wei army here.

If Wei is defeated, the countries will beat the water dogs and take the opportunity to get a piece of the vast territory of Wei, if Pu Hong and Yao Yizhong are defeated, they can also retreat!

And Ran Min, who learned of this situation, was not in a hurry, because he had already arranged everything properly.

On February 14, Ran Min drove his own expedition and started to ride an army of 100,000 people westward, and his lineup was not strong.

There are four armies in the North Gate - left and right Yulin, left and right Longwu, each with 15,000 people, a total of 60,000 soldiers, and at the same time there are 20,000 left and right Qianniuwei each, all of which are the most powerful armies of the Great Wei.

"King, the enemy army is already besieging Luoyang."

On a gorgeous car pulled by six black horses, Ran Min sat there, closed his eyes and recuperated, sniffing the faint aroma of the Ding furnace next to him, he was in a trance for a while, a little fluttering.

And beside Ran Min, the other person sitting was the military advisor Qin Mu, the minister on whom Ran Min relied on, at this moment, with a piece of information in his hand, reporting to Ran Min.

Ran Min said lightly: "Luoyang? The widow remembers, Zhou Cheng was guarding there? ”

"Yes."

"Luoyang, since ancient times, has been the place where the king's spirit is, no wonder throughout the ages, so many heroes and heroes want to compete for this place. At present, the place where we will fight a decisive battle is most likely Luoyang. ”

Luoyang is located in the north of Luoshui, the north of the water is called "Yang", so the name Luoyang, also known as Luoyang, Luoyi, Jingluo and Luocheng, because there are two rivers of Yi and Luo, also called Yiluo.

Luoyang is located in the Central Plains, the mountains and rivers in the territory are vertical and horizontal, the west is the Qinling Mountains, the Hangu Pass is the Guanzhong Plain of Shaanxi, the east is adjacent to Songyue, the north is close to the Taihang Mountain and the danger of the Yellow River again, the south looks at the Funiu Mountain, there is the saying that "the rivers and mountains arch Dai, the situation is the first in the world".

"Qin Mu, where are we here?"

"It's already in Hanoi County. Less than eighty miles ahead, it is Mengjin Pass! ”

Hearing this, Ran Min couldn't help but say with emotion: "Luoyang, it really has the atmosphere of a king." If he could, he would like to be here. ”

"Wang, in fact, you want to settle in Luoyang, this idea is good, but it is a little unrealistic. Luoyang, four stops of sanitation, Xiongguan stands in a forest, the situation is dangerous, Luoyang eight passes are on the border of five hundred miles of the Western Zhou Dynasty Wangcheng at that time, there are three passes each, the communication of the vassal states and the defense of the capital of the dynasty play a great role in the communication of the vassal states at that time. ”

Qin Mu shook his head and said, "In addition to Chang'an, Luoyang is the most suitable capital for a unified empire. It's just a pity that the world is undecided, and if the four seas are not one family, occupying Chang'an or Luoyang as the capital will definitely become the target of public criticism. ”

The eight passes of Luoyang mentioned in Qin Mu's mouth are actually the eight passes of Hangu, Yique, Guangcheng, Dagu, Yuyuan, Revolving Gate, Mengjin, and Xiaopingjin.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, because of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Emperor Ling in the first year of Zhongping (184 AD), with Henan (Luoyang) Yin Hejin as the general, led the left and right Yulin Army and the five school captains to camp Tundu Pavilion, with the town of Jingshi; Set up Hangu Pass around Luoyang, Yique, Guangcheng, Dagu, Yuyuan, Revolving Gate, Mengjin, Xiaopingjin Eight Passes, and place Baguan Duwei to control the military and political affairs of Baguan, guard the safety of Kyoto, and govern in Sanguan (now the northeast pai kiln of Yiyang County, Henan Province).

Hanguguan is the inner place at the beginning of the week, the ruins are in the north of the slope of Lingbao County, the south is towering Qinling, and the Yellow River is rolling in the north. During the Warring States Period, Qin Shi set the pass, called Qin Pass.

Yang Fu, the general of the Hanlou ship, "disciples about Xin'an", and the southern history called Hanhan Guguan.

Hangu Pass is the fortress of Luoyang leading to the west, pointing to Luodu in the east, looking at Chang'an in the west, bordering the Jianhe River in the south, and relying on the mountain in the north. There is the risk of "one husband is the pass, ten thousand people are not open", which is the first of the eight passes in Luoyang. New Bayi m.x81zw

Yique Pass is the mouth of Longmen Mountain and Xiangshan in Luoyang South, the two mountains are sandwiched, and the Yi River flows through it. In the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, it is an important pass in the south of Kyoto, it is the only way for Luoyang to go south and Jingxiang to the north, and there is a magnificent and simple arch bridge, connecting the two mountains as a whole.

Guangchengguan is located in the south of Guangchengyuan placed by Han Guangwu, hence the name. The ruins are in the area of Linru Town today, here is known as "two mountains and one river", there are Changworm Mountain, Niangniang Mountain, Monk Mountain, Baiyun Mountain, Panlong Mountain in the northeast, there are Dama Mountain, Dahuling in the southwest, it is the fortress leading to Ruying since ancient times.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, near Guangcheng Pass, there is Guangchengze, around 400 miles, the water flows out of the Langgao Mountain, and flows into Rushui in the southeast.

The State of Wei placed horses to graze here.

From the Ruying area to the north to Jingluo, this is a must pass.

Taigu Pass is a valley between Songshan Mountain and Longmen Mountain.

"Luoyang Ji" said: "Taigu, fifty miles south of Luocheng, the old name is Tonggu". In wartime, it can ambush heavy soldiers here, cut off the north-south communication, and is an ancient battlefield for the soldiers of all dynasties.

Yuyuan Pass is a shortcut to Xu and Chen in Luoyang.

The pass is Elingban, between Taimur Mountain and Shaomu Mountain, the road is dangerous, there are 12 curves, the loop is circling, it will go to return, so it is called Yuyuan Pass.

There is also a turnstile close. The Eastern Han Dynasty took Chenggao Revolving Gate Pass as the first pass in the east of Jingshi Luoyang. Ban Zhao's "Eastern Expedition Fu" Zhongyun: "The exchange of Wanghe Luo is regarded as the revolving door of Gao", which refers to this pass.

Luoyang passes to the east, that is, there is no choke to be defended.

Mengjin Pass, also known as Heyang Pass, is an important ferry port on the Yellow River in the center of the Yellow River in the north of Luoyang and 18 miles south of Mengxian County.

This is the place where King Wu of Zhou crossed the river with the princes when he crossed the river, also known as Mengjin, also known as Fupingjin. The Western Jin Dynasty Fengle Pavilion Hou Du pre-set up the first pontoon bridge on the Yellow River here, called the "River Bridge".

Ran Min also placed the three cities of Heyang on the north and south banks and on the sandbar in the river, which was the key to the north of Luoyang in the past dynasties, and was a place where soldiers must fight.

Xiaopingjin Pass is the center of the Yellow River, and it is also a Jindu on the Yellow River, and its status is second only to Fupingjin (Mengjin Pass), so it is called Xiaopingjin.

In addition, there are Tongguan in the west of Luoyang, Hugao Pass in the east, Tianjing Pass (now the top of Nantaihang Mountain, Jincheng County, Shanxi) and Yiguan (west of Jiyuan County, Henan) in the north.

These passes are also the gateways of Luoyang, and defensive guards are set up, making Luoyang a military important place that can be attacked and defended.

"The king intends to build the capital Luoyang?" Qin Mu couldn't help but ask.

Ran Min glanced at him and said, "Qin Mu, the widow won't hide it from you. You and I are called kings and ministers, and we are actually close friends. The widow does want Luoyang, but the situation does not allow it, one day, the world is calm, maybe the widow will set the capital Luoyang. But, by no means now! ”

What is Luoyang?

It was the place where the Chinese dynasties had the most capitals.

Previously, there were seven dynasties of Xia, Shang, Western Zhou, Eastern Zhou, Eastern Han, Cao Wei, and Western Jin Dynasty in Luoyang, and as far as Ran Min knew, there were six dynasties of Northern Wei, Sui, Tang, Later Liang, Later Tang, and Later Jin Dynasty.

Luoyang then has the name of "the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties", the crown of China!

"Qin Mu, how is the battle going in front of you right now?"

"King, according to your orders, all the generals perform their duties, only hold on and do not fight, except for Xin'an and Gucheng are lost, the rest of the places are still holding on, and the enemy's goal is now Luoyang, they have been besieging Luoyang City day and night."

When Ran Min heard this, he couldn't help but say with blazing eyes: "The combined army of Pu Hong and Yao Yizhong claims to have 300,000 soldiers, but in fact, it is only 160,000 horses, and it is not difficult to defeat them. The most difficult question now, and one of the most concerned questions of the widows, is that after defeating the enemy army, what kind of stubborn resistance will we encounter when we advance into the pass? ”

"The situation is not yet clear, and it is difficult for this minister to speculate."

"Since it's hard to speculate, let's rise to the challenge!"

Ran Min suddenly brightened, and then, he stood up and lifted the curtain of the car with one hand: "This carriage is comfortable, but the speed of travel is too slow!" Bring the widow's red horse Zhulong over! ”

"Pass the edict of the widow, the whole army of 10,000 light horsemen, follow the widow's fast horse whip, and go straight to Luoyang!"
