Rebirth of the best emperor

Chapter 368
Wang Mang did not accept the invitation of the elders of the family alliance such as Meng Shan, and really went to Guodu for a visit. First, Wang Mang knew that Guodu had just been littered with corpses, and it was really not a good place. He had no interest in going, so he came to Hangu Pass. An urgent call for help has been sent for three consecutive days at [-] miles.

Ordinarily, based on Wang Mang's arrangements for Hangu Pass, Hangu Pass would not be a major event, but who knows that just three days ago, Da Qin quelled the rebels and Guo State in the south in one fell swoop, but South Korea suddenly attacked Hangu Pass. Before the reinforcements arrived, only the Hangu Pass guards, within a day, were in emergency.

Fortunately, according to the battle report that just arrived, reinforcements have arrived, Hangu Pass is temporarily out of danger, but South Korea has also increased its troops at Hangu Pass, and when the South Korean reinforcements arrive, the situation at Hangu Pass is still dangerous.

In view of this, Wang Mang directly ordered that the Southern Expedition Army, except for staying in various places, the rest of the army would go directly to Hangu Pass, and the Guo State, which had newly joined the Great Qin, needed to send [-] rattan armored soldiers to accompany the Qin Army. The leader of the army was Meng Huo.

Wang Jian led 30 elite Qin troops to sit in the central army, Meng Huo led [-] rattan armored soldiers from the Guo army to follow behind the Qin army, Zhang Han led [-] logistics soldiers to run the grain and grass, and Li Guang led the [-] vanguard army to dispatch first. Along with Li Guang, Huo Qubing's [-] elite soldiers and the Guo army's [-] Tengjia soldiers who lost to Huo Qubing, a total of [-] elite soldiers, Wang Jitang's troops were incorporated into the Qin army, and they were dispatched together with Wang Mang's tent. .

A total of 50 Qin troops rushed towards Hangu Pass, and the people along the way welcomed them. The results of the war in the south have now spread throughout the whole of Daqin. The south rushed over, the rebellion in the south ended, and the land of Guo belonged to the Great Qin. There are countless business opportunities and wealth in it.

Hangu Pass.

The Korean general Shi Gandang waved his hand, and there were [-] archers bending their bows and setting arrows, and tens of thousands of arrows shot viciously at the guards of Hangu Pass.

Wang Yi stood on the gate with a stern expression. He saw countless arrow clusters flying towards him. With a wave of his hand, a row of shields was erected. Yi glanced at the gate calmly, and sighed inwardly. In an instant, Hangu Pass lost dozens of brave and skilled fighters.

Hangu Pass is condescending, easy to defend and difficult to attack, 10 defenders can block the attack of 30 enemy troops, but now Hangu Pass is completely closed, and there are only less than 20 defenders. The early reinforcements came too slowly, and the defenders were killed. It was too fast, and the reinforcements had just arrived and were not familiar with the situation, and lost some. According to the latest statistics yesterday, the number of defenders was less than [-], while the Korean army had increased to [-] troops. Another [-] troops are moving towards Hangu Pass.

If there were only 30 enemy troops, Wang Yi thought he could hold on until the court's reinforcements arrived, but if another 20 Korean troops came, Wang Yi would have to consider how to leave the most viable force for Daqin after the pass was broken.

"General, there's a letter from the imperial court that His Majesty's army has already dispatched from the three counties of Shenmu." A general ran up from under the city wall holding the letter, and said with a happy face.

Wang Yi took the letter, read it confidently, and finally said: "Judging from the time of the letter, His Majesty's army should have been dispatched yesterday. With the fastest marching speed, within three days at most, His Majesty's army will reach the letter. Guguan, with the victorious situation of Great Qin, South Korea is nothing to worry about."

Over the past few days, Wang Yi's frowning brows have been slowly relaxed. It's only been three days, and even if he desperately wants to keep Hangu Pass.

At this moment, the messenger's eyes suddenly turned sharp, and a dagger was sent straight from his hand into Wang Yi's chest. Wang Yi had already felt the attack, but he felt that the imperial army was approaching, so he relaxed his vigilance. Even if the situation was imminent and he responded in time, he still let the general win his hand, and a dagger was rubbed against his heart. passed through.

Wang Yi's surprise here shocked all the generals and soldiers at that time. A group of Wang Yi's personal soldiers put their knives on the general's neck at that time. Wang Yi pointed at the general and said, "You followed me!" After such a long time, I didn't realize that you are the death of South Korea, it's really unexpected."

"There are so many things that the general can't think of." Pian Jiang sneered, and as soon as he gritted his teeth, the poison pill hidden in his mouth was crushed, seeing the poison that sealed his throat with blood, he directly poisoned Pian Jiang to death.

Wang Yi gave the general a cold look, and finally couldn't support himself and fell to the ground. The soldiers were panicked when they closed the door, and forgot to defend for a while.

Seeing the commotion on the tower, Shi Gandang smiled in his heart, knowing that the matter should be done, and immediately waved his hand, a total of [-] archers bent their bows and set arrows at the same time. The well-ordered defense of Hangu Pass, because of Wang Yi's serious injury, could not help but have a vacancy. This vacancy alone allowed Shi Gandang to seize the opportunity. [-] archers shot at the same time, and countless former guards were killed by random arrows. shoot dead.

Looking at the colleagues who suddenly fell beside him, the Daqin soldiers remembered that this was on the battlefield, and on the battlefield, if one was not paying attention, it would be fatal.

Shi Gandang looked at the shield hastily raised on the tower, and waved his hand again. At that time, a phalanx of ten thousand people attacked Hangu Pass fiercely with the most classic siege method in the mainland.

All of a sudden, Hangu Pass was in flames, and countless soldiers fell on the pass.

Seeing the start of the siege, Shi Gandang smiled and said to the left and right: "Wang Yi is also a famous general in the world. His biggest shortcoming is that he likes to command battles at the front line. This is the easiest opportunity for people to take advantage of. Now he really died in the over this greatest shortcoming."

"They are all wise generals!"

"That's right, Wang Yi is just a waste of fame. The general just used a little trick to bring down this so-called famous general in the world. In my opinion, Wang Yi, a famous general in the world, mostly brags."

"Yeah, our general is still very good."

Shi Gandang let the group of his subordinates feel a little bit flattered, and suddenly felt that he was much wiser, and said with a smile: "Everyone, Hangu Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is not easy to be breached, and the siege will end in a short while. No, let's go drink first, just as an early celebration!"

"General, after all Qin's reinforcements are about to arrive, should we go all out and take advantage of Wang Yi's serious injury, Hangu Pass has no guards, and the dragons have no leader, so as to take down Hangu Pass completely." Someone asked.

"Huh!" Shi Gandang snorted coldly, and said, "This general naturally knows that it is best to attack without a leader, but now that Wang Yi has just fallen, the Qin army is eager to avenge their general. At this time, it may be possible to fight with all your strength. Breaking through Hangu Pass in one fell swoop, but the loss is definitely not small, it is better to wait until these defenders have no strength to fight, then the general only needs tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and can easily take this grand pass, so why waste effort."

After a pause, Shi Gandang continued: "As for the reinforcements, Daqin's troops are all in the south now, coming from the south of Daqin, even if they rush on horseback and add some special means, it will take three days at the fastest to arrive. Time, don’t you think this general can’t win a small Hangu Pass?”
