The Battle of Tiger Prison Pass not only started the fame of the army of the Five Merchants Alliance of Dongzhou, but also opened the eastern gate of Wangluozhou City in Henan.

The king of Henan faced the central court before, and the reason why he was able to surrender was because he occupied a quite favorable terrain in Luozhou.

There are Luoyang Eight Passes around Luozhou City/Luoyang Mansion, which are Hangu Yique, Guangcheng, Otani Yuyuan, Revolving Gate, Mengjin, Xiaopingjin, and Eight Passes. These eight passes are all located in the dangerous places and the necessary roads leading to Luozhou City, controlling the mountains and rivers and controlling the roads, firmly guarding the land within a radius of 500 miles of Luozhou City.

Generally speaking, the forces that actually control Luoju City, as long as they can control these eight passes, can generally occupy an excellent defensive posture.

Among these eight passes, Hangu Pass, Xuanmen Pass and Mengjindu are the most important.

The line from Hangu Pass to Tongguan is the world-famous Cuihan Ancient Road. Whether it is to occupy Luozhou City or Chang'an Mansion, the Cuihan Ancient Road on the line from Hangu Pass to Tongguan is a place where the forces that occupy these two cities must compete. After the king of Henan surrendered to the central court after the first rebellion, he and the forces of the king of Qin used the Hantong line as the main battlefield. Each side has a pass, and the two sides fought more than a dozen battles between the Cuihan Ancient Road, but they only lost their troops and lost their generals, and no one could help anyone.

As for the revolving gate pass in the east of Luozhou City, which is close to Kaifeng Mansion, it is actually the Tiger Prison Pass that has just been defeated by the elite army of the Five Merchants Alliance led by Wang Rensong. In fact, the name of Tiger Prison Pass originated from the Western Zhou Dynasty. In the past, King Mu of Zhou hunted in the garden, and when the famous entourage plundered the forest and frightened the beasts, he suddenly saw a tiger wandering in the reeds, "The Son of Heaven is coming, and the Son of Heaven who is the Son of Heaven is dedicated to hunting tigers. However, the name of the tiger prison has been since then. Qin thought it was a pass, and Hannai County was it". As for the name of the revolving gate pass, it was in the first year of Zhongping, Emperor Lingdi of the Eastern Han Dynasty, with He Jin as the general, leading the left and right Yulin army and the five lieutenants to camp Tundu Pavilion, with the town of Jing, and set up Hangu Yique Guangcheng Otani Yuan revolving gate Mengjin Xiaopingjin eight passes around Luoyang, Kyoto, and placed the eight passes as the captain, so as to oversee the military and political affairs of the eight passes and guard the safety of Kyoto. At this point, the Tiger Prison Pass also has the name of the Revolving Gate Pass. Luozhou City, Luoyang Prefecture, passes the revolving gate to the east, that is, there is no choke to defend.

As for the Mengjindu in the eight passes, it is one of the only two passes and ferries in the eight passes, bordering the Yellow River in the north, relying on the Piling Mountains in the south, there are mountains and rivers as supports, and the passes are easy to hold, forming the trend of controlling the river with the river and guarding the pass. Because of its precarious situation. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it has become a battleground for soldiers. The Yellow River flows out of Shaanxi to the western Henan Gorge, the water flow is turbulent, as for Mengjin, the river channel gradually widens, and the flow speed drops sharply, which is convenient for boat crossing. Therefore, Mengjindu, located near Mengjin Pass, has been a traffic hub between the north and south through Heluo since ancient times. With the Yellow River as a natural barrier, Guandu complements each other and occupies a geographical advantage. Although it is difficult to find the Mengjin Pass of the Han Dynasty due to the changes of the ancient Yellow River, the Mengjin Pass of the Han Dynasty has been rebuilt more than 100 years ago in order to control the surroundings of Luozhou City, so that the Mengjin Pass has reappeared in the defensive posture of combining the Guandu and the Du.

When the king of Henan rebelled for the second time, he deployed 10,000 elite soldiers in the three major passes, wanting to take advantage of the geographical advantage of the pass to block the army of the central court in the north of the Kwantung River. And the 60,000 troops in the hands of the king of Henan are now divided into 30,000 troops to guard these three passes, which is enough to see the importance that the king of Henan attaches to these three passes.

Before the Dongzhou Five Merchants League sent troops, the defenders of these three major passes were also very competitive, and repeatedly repelled the incoming attacks of the central imperial court, and firmly controlled these three major passes in the Henan army.

But who would have thought that this Tiger Prison Pass would be broken in one day, and the most important pass in the east of Luozhou City was beaten down in this way, although between Luozhou City and Tiger Prison Pass, there are still towns such as Gong County and Yanshi County to defend, but these small towns are easier to be beaten down than such Xiongguan as Tiger Prison Pass, after all, it is easier to be beaten down, and the effect that can be played in defending Luozhou is still somewhat limited after all.

This is also the reason why after learning that the Tiger Prison Pass was broken and fainted and woke up, the King of Henan sent 20,000 Luozhou City garrisons to recapture the Tiger Prison Pass.

As for the city of Luozhou, there are now only more than 20,000 garrisons. The king of Henan suddenly dispatched a full 20,000 troops, regardless of whether Luozhou City could still hold it in the garrison of thousands of troops.

However, Wang Rensong, who went to Gongxian with the main force after defeating the Tiger Prison Pass, learned from the intelligence system of the Five Merchants Alliance that the king of Henan was desperate, but he decisively changed his plan to march and went directly to the bank of Luoshui, along the narrow riverside road of Luoshui, and went all the way to Luozhou City.
