I’m The King Chapter 1509: : One hundred and ninety-nine decisive battles in the world of the Han flag Thirteen
Luo Weiran rode his horse and slowly stepped into Hangu Pass. Qian Zhongyi blocked all the gates of Hangu Pass. The city wall quickly cleared the obstacles and opened and closed the gate.
In addition to the Han army, there are no Qin people standing still in the pass. It is hard to imagine that two days ago, a fierce battle broke out here, and hundreds of thousands of Han troops were firmly blocked outside the pass.
Luo Weiran claimed to have experienced battles for a long time, and he has seen all kinds of **** scenes, but when he stepped into Hangu Pass, the scene in front of him still made his stomach churn up and down, and the sour taste rose up and down, almost They were about to vomit on the spot, and the soldiers of the Han army who took the lead in entering the pass were all pale at this time, and some were leaning on the wall beside them, bending over and vomiting profusely.
The scene in the pass is too horrible to bear.
"Are you still alive?" Luo Weiran asked in a low voice, suppressing the discomfort.
"I found some, but the situation is not very good, and I don't know if it can be saved." The military pass who entered the pass earlier had obviously vomited once, and he was still retching while talking. "I also found some intact ones that were not injured."
"Huh?" Luo Weiran was a little surprised, "There is still resistance in the pass?"
"No more!" The officer shook his head, "These surviving people are distributed in different places, and their mental condition seems to be very bad." After a pause, he continued: "About a hundred people survived. The rest of the people, it seems, are frightened crazy."
Luo Weiran was silent for a moment, then turned to the adjutant beside him and said: "Notify the follow-up troops not to enter the city, let the engineering troops come in first, and please ask His Majesty the Emperor to gather all the doctors accompanying the army in the first military region and pass through first. Save as much as you can."
"Understood, Commander!" The adjutant turned around and rode away.
"Those Qin people who are not injured and have mental problems, let them go." Luo Weiran said: "We need them to spread the situation of Hangu Pass. Let the Qin army know and resist. There is only a dead end One, surrender, is their only way out."
In the real sense, only two battles were fought in the attack on Hangu Pass. The first battle should be said to have been lost, but the second battle completely wiped out the Qin army. The endgame in Guguan took ten days. A large number of corpses of the Qin army were transported out, concentrated in one place, and cremated batch by batch. During this period, the main force of the Han army did not step into Hangu Pass. Xu Yuan and Gao Yuan accepted Luo Weiran's suggestion and did not want to Let the Han army see the tragic situation in Hangu Pass, and have some psychological shadows on the subsequent war.
Ten days later, the main force of the First Military Region crossed the Hangu Pass. Start to march towards Xianyang. So far, the three battles of the Han Dynasty have been divided into three routes, facing Xianyang, the ruling center of the Qin State. Take it in stride. In front of them, there is no natural danger pass that can stop their footsteps.
In Changwu County, another army that Qin State withdrew from Bashu is heading towards Xianyang under the leadership of Bai Qi. Annihilated by the Han army, the only way out is to approach Xianyang.
The broken state of Qin is no longer able to provide him with effective support. With an army of tens of thousands, even rations became a problem. The poverty of the people along the way is shocking. Even if they scraped the ground three feet, they could barely fill their bellies.
Only when they return to Xianyang will they be able to survive. With all the resources concentrated in Xianyang, only there will they have a slight chance to turn things around, although it is only a slight chance.
"General, in Xianyang, we have recruited hundreds of thousands of young men to form a large army, and built a solid defense line around Xianyang. We have built thousands of artillery pieces and distributed them around Xianyang. Now the Xianyang can be said to be as solid as gold, as long as General Bai and General Xu lead their troops back to Xianyang in time, we will be able to let the Han army shed blood under the city of Xianyang." The envoy from Xianyang talked endlessly to Bai Let's talk about the current situation in Xianyang. Regarding Bai Qi, Lu Chao is not so at ease. The southern frontier soldier Wang Ming surrendered without a fight, and his most trusted brother and political ally Mingtai left without saying goodbye, all of which made Lu Chao seriously distrust the generals outside. Feeling that, he sent special envoys to Bai Qi and Xu Yahua's army, intending to monitor and urge these two generals who still hold heavy troops to return to Xianyang on time. In Lu Chao's plan, these two armies will Played an important role in the next Xianyang decisive battle.
Listening to the envoy's words, Bai Qi smiled indifferently. The so-called hundreds of thousands of troops are just some farmers who have just put down their hoes. A large part of them may still be forced to come. How powerful are these people? Needless to say, in Xianyang now, the real elites are only Lu Chao's direct troops with less than 30,000 troops, so he is eagerly looking forward to Bai Qi's rapid withdrawal to Xianyang.
As for Lu Chao's sudden announcement of enthronement as emperor, Bai Qi was shocked, but there was nothing wrong with it, because the current state of Qin was in fact already under Lu Chao's control, and the only difference was a Name only. If Lu Chao leads them to win this battle, so what if he is the emperor, as long as Qin can survive again, that's enough. What can the emperor do to himself?
"Where is General Xu withdrawing to now?" Bai Qi asked calmly, ignoring the envoy's impassioned enthusiasm.
"General Xu has now arrived in Zhengning, almost at the same time as General Bai. General Xu's command is divided into three parts. The first part protects all the craftsmen and technicians and has returned to Xianyang within a month. The other part Defending at Hangu Pass, blocking the advance of the Han army, General Xu led the main force, protecting a large number of people and retreating to Xianyang, the speed must be slower than you, General."
Bai Qi nodded slightly, and he and Xu Yahua returned to Xianyang. The combined armies on both sides numbered more than 100,000. In addition to the army in Xianyang, there were nearly 20 people who could actually step on the battlefield and fight the Han army. Although the number of ten thousand people is insufficient, they are fighting at home after all. If Xianyang has already built a complete defense network and has such a large number of artillery as the envoy said, then this last The decisive battle is not without chance of victory.
Bai Qiying was deeply impressed by the artillery of the Han army.
In fact, Bai Qi's army has not experienced large-scale artillery battles. Unlike Xu Yahua's troops, the war with the Han army is basically artillery. After Bai Qi's new army formed its own army, He was busy suppressing the rising peasant uprising army in the country, and had no chance to fight against the main force of the Han army. It was not until the later period of the war that the uprising army in Shu County gradually became popular, directly occupied Shu County and began to expand to Berkshire. They confronted each other head-on, but recently, the Bashu uprising army received a large amount of assistance from the Han Dynasty, and the artillery appeared in front of Bai Qi for the first time. Bai Qi was terrified. What he was facing was only a small-scale shelling. It was hard for him to imagine the terrifying scene of hundreds of cannons bombarding with one blow.
The information just came back was that when Hangu Pass was breached by the Han army, it was attacked by hundreds of artillery pieces from the Han army at the same time. Thinking about that scene, Bai Qi was startled.
Now he is not in an easy situation. Under the leadership of Niu Teng, Wen Yi, and He Yong, the Bashu uprising army behind him has been trailing behind. Let Bai Qi raise his vigilance. Several cavalry troops of the Han army bypassed Xianyang, and dispersed the young and strong men who gathered in Xianyang in Qin State. Judging from the collected information, the three independent cavalry divisions of the Han State have all shown up.
Now Bai Qi is worried that the three independent cavalry divisions will target him.
Will the Han army allow themselves to return to Xianyang so easily? not necessarily. After sending away the envoy, standing in front of the map, Bai Qi fell into deep thought.
"General, it's not good!" The lieutenant general Lu Yi who broke into the big tent had a look of panic on his face.
I'm really afraid of something. Bai Qi's face sank slightly, "Did you find the cavalry of the Han army?"
"Yes, under the leadership of Gu Li, the Xiongnu Cavalry Division of the Han Army has captured Bin County." Lu Yi swallowed.
"Guli's Xiongnu cavalry divisions are all cavalry. How did they manage to capture the county? Can their horses fly?" Bai Qi was shocked and angry. If they take a detour, they will spend at least ten more days.
"The county magistrate of Bin County surrendered in anticipation~IndoMTL.com~ Lu Yi said angrily: "According to what the scouts heard, the cavalry of the Han army just threatened the city, and the county magistrate of Bin County opened the city and surrendered." . "
Bai Qi sighed, the so-called trees fell and the monkeys scatter, that's the truth. In the current situation in Daqin, I'm afraid that most people have lost their final confidence.
"Are there any pawns following up?"
"So far, no infantry of the Han army has been found." Lu Yi said.
"That's okay. The Xiongnu cavalry divisions are good at field battles, but not good at defending the city. The surrender of Bin County is just for them to get more supplies. Gu Li will never stay in the city and defend it to the death. She We will still find a way to find fighters in the wild. The original plan remains the same. We are still marching towards Bin County. Lu Yi, gather all our cavalry, and you will lead them to cover the flanks to prevent the sudden attack of the Han cavalry. The speed of the troops will slow down. Pay attention to front and rear protection, and never get out of touch, the enemy can take advantage of the opportunity."
"Yes, General."
"Immediately send someone to notify Xu Yahua and inform him of our location. Tell him that the cavalry of the Han army has appeared." (To be continued.)
