Chapter 131: Burning the Tiger's Lagoon

.Tiger is the way to pass.

Amid the endless sound of horns, the Han army crowded under the Dongguan finally retreated like a tide.

Jing Qian breathed a long sigh and sat down on the messy wall. Pang Yu also leaned on the pile not far away, gasping for breath.

Looking around, the Han army's corpses were everywhere in the gate.

Most of the bodies were already burnt, and that was all due to the heavy tinder.

The wall was closed, and there were also corpses lying on it. However, this was the body of the Chu army soldiers.

The Han army's well railing still posed a great threat to the guards at the gate. In two days of siege, the defenders at the gate were shot and killed by at least 2,000 people by the Han army archers on the gate! Pang Yu's bed crossbow raid once severely damaged the guards at the Liang army's well railing. However, the Han army's well railing learned his lesson and did not get close to the wall within fifty steps.

It's too far apart. The giant arrow drags the huge rope and it's difficult to hit the target.

Fortunately, there is still strong turbulence, otherwise Hulao Pass would have been lost.

After a while, Jing Qian finally recovered, and said to Pang Yu: "Old Liu Bang seems to be a madman."

"Old Liu Bang is not crazy, but anxious." Pang Yu shook his head, and said, "But then again, "You are not anxious, you can't do it. It's been six or seven days. The general may break through Hangu Pass at any time. Once Hangu Pass is broken, the Han army in Xianyang will be safe. You think Liu Bang is not in a hurry?"

Jing Qian looked around and said worriedly: "I don't know when the General will be able to break through Hangu Pass?"

"Yes." Pang Yu nodded, and said, "There is not much hot oil left after closing. There is not much wood-rolling stone left. Once the hot oil is exhausted, Hulao Pass is afraid that Dan sword will be lost."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the long street in the city.

Jing Qian, when Pang Yu got up and looked, he saw a fast horse rushing to the east gate like a wind and clouds, and then rushed straight to the junction along the long slanting horse path. Before he could turn over and get off the horse, the cavalry on the horse unloaded the bag from his back, and then shouted quickly: "Where is the former general Huan Chu? There is an emergency army?"

Before he finished speaking, a large group of generals flocked out of the enemy building.

The two leaders were Huan Chu, the former general of Great Chu and Ji Bu.

"Huan Chu is here!" Huan Chu strode forward and said loudly, "Where is the general's military order?"

"The military order is here!" The cavalry immediately knelt down on one knee, and then presented the book in his hand with both hands.

The guichu took the book and read it quickly, and then laughed to the sky: "Hahaha, I was so happy, the general's army has already broken through Hangu Pass, our army has already broken through Hangu Pass!"

When Huan Chu finished speaking, the Chu soldiers at the moment when they were finished, they were stunned at first, and then cheered.

Jing Qian and Pang Yu couldn't help but slam the high fives to celebrate. The Hangu Pass was broken, and there was no need to defend Hulao Pass anymore. The Chu army could completely defend the more majestic Hangu Pass to resist Liu Bang's army!

At that moment, Jing Qian said anxiously: "What do you say about General Huan Chu's military order?"

Huan Chu raised Yang Shujian’ and said loudly: “The General ordered us to give up Huzhu immediately and retreat to Hangu Pass!”

"Then what are we waiting for!" Ji Bu was overjoyed and said impatiently, "It just so happens that Hulao Pass can't be kept, so let's leave quickly while the night is gone!"

Gui Chu also said: "Order the entire army to prepare to withdraw!"

"Two generals, wait!" Pang Yu was very anxious when he heard this, and quickly stepped forward and persuaded him, "If our army leaves like this, the Han army will definitely chase after him. At that time, our army will retreat, and not defend. The situation will be very passive." Pang Yu had read military books after all, and he knew that there were some specialties in retreating in the last battle.

Huan Chu was a big boss and said disapprovingly: "I'm afraid of a bird?"

Ji Buze felt that Pang Yu’s concern was reasonable’ and said, “Pang Yu, what do you think you should do?”

Pang Yu said: "The general thought that the two generals led the army to sneak in first, but they could not make torches, and the soldiers of each army could not make loud noises. All horses should also wrap their hooves and carry pieces on their mouths, so as not to be discovered by the Han army!" After a pause, he said, "The general and General Jing Qian led 300 elite troops to be responsible for cutting off the rear!"

Huan Chu frowned and said, "Is this necessary?"

Ji Bu persuaded: "Lao Huan, be careful, nothing wrong!"

"Okay, okay." Huan Chu had no choice but to turn around and instruct the captain of his personal soldiers, "The order is not allowed to fire the battalions, and all soldiers are holding pieces of turbulent mouths, and no noise is allowed. All horses are wrapped in hooves, and cages are placed on their mouths, and they are immediately pulled out!" At the same time, Ji Bu also issued a military order to turn in to his left army.

Jing Qian and Pang Yu's three hundred light soldiers remained.

Watching the Qiao Chu, Ji Bu and his two armies left, Pang Yu said to Jing Qian again: "General, we should prepare too."

Jing Qian said: "What are you ready for? The bodies of the fallen soldiers have been cremated and the ashes have been collected."

"This is not what the last general said." Pang Yu sighed and explained patiently, "In one night, Huan Chu and Ji Bu's two armies may not be able to go too far. Once Liu Bang sent elite cavalry to chase, he could still catch up, so 'we have to set up a barrier in Hulao Pass' to try to stop the Han army from pursuing troops.

"The obstacle?" Jing Qian was also a rude man, and said inexplicably, "What obstacle?"

"Set the fire!" Pang Yu said in a deep voice, "Let's pour the remaining hot oil into the barracks and buildings in the pass, and then burn it to his mother. As long as the fire starts, you won't be able to extinguish it within three or two days. Old Liu Bang and his army can only guard outside the pass and stare at him, hehe."

"Oh." Jing Qian said with a sniff, "Pang Yu, you have it."

Pang Yu smiled and said nothing, but thought to himself that this young master’s military book for more than ten years was not in vain.

At this moment, Jing Qian, Pang Yu left fifty people to watch the night, and then went there with the rest.

##############

Outside Hulao Pass’ Liu Bang’s camp.

Following Zhou Bo’s Shang Dynasty, Xiahou Ying’s two elite soldiers had arrived. Now, the elite soldiers gathered under Liu Bang’s command had more than 60,000. However, Zhang Liang’s main army and subsequent heavy crows were still a hundred miles away. At the earliest, they would not be able to arrive at Hulao Pass tomorrow evening.

The atmosphere in the tent was a bit solemn. Liu Bang was pacing back and forth with anxiety on his face.

Zhou Bo, Shang, Xiahou Ying and Chen Ping stared at each other, and no one dared to make a sound.

After a while, Liu Bang stopped and said to Chen Ping: "Chen Ping, what about attacking at night?"

Liu Bang didn't want to wait any longer, and he didn't dare to wait any longer. If he waited, maybe Xiang Zhuang's son would be able to enter Guanzhong. Liu Bang didn't want the foundation of Guanzhong that he had finally managed to build was destroyed by Xiang Zhuang.

Chen Ping said: "The Chu army was very garrisoned, and it was probably not a big surprise attack."

"No matter how many," Liu Bang looked around the generals and said, "Who dares to accept the order?"

When Xiahou Ying was about to leave the line, a young player had already snatched the shift from behind Zhou Bo and said proudly: "I am willing to go!"

When Liu Bang looked closely, it was Zhou Bo's only son Zhou Guanfu' nodded happily and said, "Okay, I will give you three thousand elites, and I must take down the Hulao Pass tonight!" After saying this, Liu Bang said, "If I remember correctly, you seem to be almost eighteen years old. When you break the Hulao Pass, I will personally give you a crown!"

"Your Majesty, please see." Zhou Guanfu said proudly, "The last general will not be humiliated!"

The third hour of Yin was the darkest time before dawn.

Jing Qian and Pang Yu and more than 200 veterans were busy for the middle of the night. Finally, under the eaves of buildings such as barracks, warehouses, warehouses, and flammable objects were laid out on the roofs of buildings such as dry firewood and wormwood. In order to ensure the rapid spread of the fire, the two of them also closed the only dozens of cans of hot tincture oil.

At this moment, Jing Qian, Pang Yu and more than 300 veterans were sitting under the gate to rest.

The 50 veterans were inspecting each other, but they were about to evacuate the Hulao Pass. Everyone's mind was no longer here, so they were inevitably a little careless.

After a while' Jing Qian said to Pang Yu again: "Pang Yu, you have a rest, I'll go and close it for a walk."

Pang Yu nodded, and said to Jing Qian again: "General's is almost done, why don't you set fire?"

"No hurry." Jing Qian waved his hand," said, "When Liu Bang's army enters the pass after dawn, we will set fire again. Hehe' I will destroy thousands of his men before leaving."

After saying that, Jing Qian slowly walked up to the gate.

Pang Yu frowned, and wanted to persuade Jing Qian to say a few words.

As the saying goes, if the moon is full, it will lose; if the water is full, it will overflow. You can't go too far, otherwise it will be too far. But Pang Yu thought again, Jing Qian was a rude man, and told him that these things were simply playing the piano for a cow, so he didn't say anything.

Besides, when Jing Qian was striding to the point, he saw more than 50 veterans watching the night were sitting together in groups of three or three. They were chatting and chatting. Jing Qian frowned. Just as he was about to scold him, a strange noise suddenly came from the dark night sky in front of him. When he looked up quickly, he saw that more than a dozen step ladders had already been climbing up. The ladders were still full of people!

Jing Qian's pupils suddenly contracted sharply, and he shouted loudly: "Enemy attack" the enemy attack!"

Before he finished speaking, more than a dozen stepladders had already leaned against the wall with continuous "bang" and "bang" sounds. The dozens of Han soldiers who were climbing in the front half of the cloud ladder jumped directly to the wall. The leader was a white-robed young general who looked like a fan, but the sword-browed star-eyed star-eyed white-robed man was fucked by a pair of iron halberds about six feet in his hand.

This young general in white robe is naturally Zhou Guanfu, the only son of the famous Han general Zhou Bo.

The Han army almost adopted the same tactics as the Chu army. Taking advantage of the night to push the ladder to the gate and seize the city directly.

Zhou Guanfu led the way, and took more than 200 Ruiz to the stairs and climbed up the wall. Before the stairs were completely hooked, Zhou Guanfu jumped on the wall. Then he saw Jing Qian who was roaring. At that moment, the two halberds in his hand collided with each other, and a clanging sound was made in an instant. Then he swung away his big strode and forced Jing Qian over.
