Chapter 170 Adventure
In the Hangu Pass, the Qin army had just repelled the Fusu Army's attack again. The soldiers walked down from the city wall tiredly. They were already too tired. In the past ten days, although they had relied on the steepness of the Hangu Pass to block their way.
The Fusu Army attacked wave after wave, but both mentally and physically, they had reached their limit. While watching the guard Lu Ying, he understood in his heart that if this continues, some of the soldiers in Hangu Pass may escape.
After all, they are not the real defenders of Hangu Pass, and they are not even good fighters in the Qin army. This high-intensity confrontation quickly wears away their will. The only thing that supports them is the safety of their families in Xianyang City and the Qin people's
Severe punishments for deserters.
Lu Ying is the elder brother of Lu Jie, the military advisor who followed Zhang Han to the Chu region. Both of their brothers, both civil and military, are independent figures. Although he is not as good at defending as Le Ding, he can still make full use of the terrain of Hangu Pass.
Block the enemy's invasion. Seeing the soldiers walking down the tower, Lu Ying hurriedly ordered people to prepare the food. Now, in addition to commanding the soldiers to resist the enemy, all he can do is to prepare enough logistics materials for them. Soldiers
While eating the food, they were already resting against each other. Some people still had half a piece of pancake in their mouths, and they had already fallen asleep. They were too tired.
Lu Ying asked the people around him: "The letter from Xianyang should have been delivered. I wonder if the emperor can send more people to support."
The soldier said: "The time should have come, but I'm afraid there won't be any more reinforcements. It's not like the general doesn't know that all of our Qin army and horses are in Chu." Lu Ying sighed, now he only hoped that Zhang Han's
The army can come back soon.
Ziying from Xianyang City was looking at the military report sent from Hangu Pass, with a rare smile on his face: "This Hangu Pass is indeed the barrier of our Qin Dynasty. Only 20,000 people can block Fusu."
Army, half a month has passed. As long as we hold on for another half month, I expect Zhang Han's army will arrive. By then, they will attack from both sides and the Fusu rebel army will be defeated."
"What the emperor said is true. Fortunately, the emperor was wise and made early preparations, which made me Hangu Pass as safe as Mount Tai!" Some ministers hurriedly took the opportunity to say. After several abnormal changes in imperial power, the promising ministers of the Qin Dynasty were no longer there.
There are only a few people who are still in their original official positions, so there are not many people who can worry about Ziying.
But Ziying immediately frowned and said: "Guardian Lu Ying reported that the soldiers are exhausted and may not be able to hold on for long. I wonder how many soldiers I asked you to recruit in Xianyang City?"
Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard this. Although they had recruited soldiers in Xianyang City, there were only a few applicants. Now they could only pretend to be deaf and dumb when the emperor asked. When Ziying saw this situation, he said angrily: "I asked you to
Is it so difficult to do something? According to my decree, every household in Xianyang City must give birth to a son, otherwise he will be convicted of treason and collaborating with the enemy!"
After the imperial edict, the people in Xianyang City suffered another disaster. Countless families could only send out those who could still walk to answer the call. In a few days, they gathered 70,000 people. But the fighting strength of 70,000 people was weak.
It only took an army of several thousand men to defeat them. But Ziying still sent them to Hanguguan to make up for the defeat.
More than half a month has passed, and Fusu's army is still attacking Hangu Pass. Twenty thousand people have died. But in addition to leaving scars on the city wall, Fusu's sergeants can say that Hangu Pass is nothing.
There is no way.
Fusu and a group of generals gathered together and began to discuss it again, but this kind of meeting had been held no less than ten times, and it was still unimaginable. Fusu sighed: "I never thought that Hangu Pass would be so difficult to attack. Our army's
Although the equipment is sufficient, it is still unable to do anything to them." Fusu now regrets why he did not learn knowledge about ancient war equipment back then. If he knew how to use Huihui artillery and other siege weapons that appeared later, this Hangu
Guan Afraid is not that difficult to attack.
"It's a pity that even though I sent countless scouts, I still couldn't find a trail like that of Sanchuan City. Otherwise, we could have used our old trick again and attacked Hangu Pass by taking a detour." Canghaijun Tianba said. Since the last time, we can
After defeating Sanchuan City using this method, he highly praised the strategy of detouring around the path.
Meng Tian smiled bitterly and said: "If there really is a trail leading to the rear at Hangu Pass, then Xianyang of the Qin Dynasty would have been captured by the Six Kingdoms dozens or hundreds of years ago, and there would never be a day when the world could be unified.
.But I expect that the Qin army guarding the city must be very tired. Now they don't have too many men and horses available, and some of them have to stay in Xianyang, so the number of people fighting us will only be between 20,000 and 30,000. These two
For ten days we have been attacking non-stop, regardless of casualties, even if we delay, we can defeat them."
Han Xin was also convinced and said: "Yes, I see that the rocks and wood thrown by the Qin army in the past few days are no longer as powerful as they were in the past few days. As long as we attack him for another month and a half, this barrier will be broken."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Liang shook his head and said: "The news from the rear is that Zhang Han's army has arrived in Hedong County. In a few days, he will be behind us, and then our situation will not be good.
.Moreover, the soldiers have been unable to attack this city for a long time, and their morale has become worse than before. If we can't find a way to break through the barrier within three to five days, our army will have to withdraw to Sanchuan to resist Zhang Han's incoming army."
Han Xin also had a headache when he heard this, and murmured: "If we want to break through Hangu Pass in a few days, unless our soldiers can fly into the pass with wings on their backs, there will be no way we can do it."
Fusu had been sitting there listening to everyone's words. At this time, he suddenly grabbed Han Xin and said, "What did you just say?" He looked very excited. Han Xin looked at Fusu inexplicably and said, "We will break this within a few days."
Hangu Pass, unless our soldiers can fly into the pass with wings on their backs, there is no way they can do it. That's what I just said."
Fusu slapped his thigh and said: "How could I not have thought of this? If this plan works, Hangu Pass may be broken in one day." Everyone looked at Fusu in disbelief, thinking that he had suffered from some kind of illness after being frustrated for the past few days.
, and Zhang Liang held Fusu's wrist and wanted to take his pulse. Fusu hurriedly broke away from Zhang Liang's hand and said: "I see that Hangu Pass stands in the valley, surrounded by mountains on both sides, which is just right for our troops to go down from the mountains.
If you go, you will be able to enter the city in one fell swoop."
Everyone looked at him even more wrongly. Zhang Liang said with a smile: "The prince asked our sergeants to jump from the mountain into the city. I'm afraid they won't be able to succeed anyway. The mountain is dozens of feet high. If you jump off, you will die as soon as you hit the ground."
There are no intact corpses left.”
Fusu said: "Of course it's not enough to just jump down like this, but it will be different if you carry a kite on your back." Everyone had never heard of the word "kite", so they continued to look at Fusu and listen to his explanation. Fusu had no choice but to
He gestured to the kite, and then said, "As long as a person's feet are fixed on the kite, the buoyancy of the air will make the person float in the air for a period of time, and he can adjust his position and fly in the direction he wants to go.
"
Everyone was stunned for a while, but after thinking about it carefully, Fusu's method seemed feasible.
When Fusu was listening to everyone's conversation just now, he was also searching for similar battles that he remembered. Then Han Xin's "flying" word reminded him of Guo Jing leading the Mongolian army to defeat the city of Samarkand in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"
Although this is just a novel and has no real theoretical basis, at this time, Fusu, who was in a critical condition and went to the doctor, could not do much.
So in the next few days, Fusu Army stopped attacking the city and began to prepare for the "gap". One group of people went to the mountains on both sides of Hangu Pass to find the most suitable place to jump, and another group of people went to the mountains on both sides of Hangu Pass to find the most suitable place to jump.
Then he cut down trees, dismantled some cowhide tents, and made a huge kite according to Fusu's requirements. Fortunately, Fusu had also made small kites before, so it was not too difficult to just enlarge it now. Three days later
Thousands of kites are ready.
The Qin army in Guanzhong suddenly discovered that the Fusu army was no longer attacking. They couldn't help but be overjoyed. Except for a few who took turns watching the sentry at the top of the city, everyone else went back to rest. The person responsible for paying attention to the Fusu army's movements saw him
The unusual movements in Fusu's army were reported to Lu Ying. After hearing this, Lu Ying was also very puzzled: "They neither attack nor retreat. I don't know what they are doing. I heard that they are creating a strange thing in the camp. Could it be that they
Do you want to use that thing to deal with us?"
The man also shook his head with a confused expression. Lu Ying said: "Just in case, you have people pay close attention to any changes in Fusu's army and report to me at any time." Although he was cautious, Lu Ying still didn't believe Fusu.
What threat could the Soviet army use this strange thing to pose to Hangu Pass where they were stationed?
On a mountain south of Hangu Pass, thousands of people gathered that night. They all carried a large kite. The skeleton of the kite was made of tree trunks without removing the bark, and its main body was made of black
The tent was made of cowhide. Although it looked simple, it was still strong. Fusu stood in front of more than a thousand people and said: "Now our army is blocked here. Only by using this dangerous strategy can we hope to break through this tent within a period of time."
Guguan. But I also know that this trip is very dangerous. If you don't want to go, you can just say it and I will never force you."
More than a thousand people whispered at the same time: "We are willing to die for the prince, even if we are shattered to pieces, we will have no regrets!"
Fusu patted a soldier in front of him and said: "Then it all depends on you. Once you enter the customs and quickly open the door, all the generals and I will be waiting outside. As soon as the door is opened, our army will rush in."
Guanzhong will fight side by side with you."
Peng Hong put the kite on himself and said: "Prince, don't worry, as long as we enter the pass, the Qin army's combat power will not be able to stop us from opening the door." He was the most agile, so Fusu asked him this time
Lead the soldiers to implement this plan.
Fusu nodded and said: "Then I will wait for your good news." After saying that, he went down the mountain. He still had to mobilize his troops to prepare to attack the city.
