Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 339 In the world, the land of kings! (Second more)

Luoyang City is the hometown of kings, known as the world.The capital of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty has a long history.

On the Central Plains, Luoyang City is definitely not an unknown place.There are too many legends and stories here.

But this time, the goal of Li Bi and others is Luoyang, the land of kings in this world.

Only by winning Luoyang can we occupy Henan in one fell swoop.

……

Luoyang City is surrounded by four fortresses, with many majestic passes, and the situation is dangerous and solid. There are eight passes around Yique, Guangcheng, Dagu, Yuyuan, Revolving Gate, Mengjin, and Xiaopingjin.

Collectively known as the eight pass city!

In this era, some passes did not exist, but today's Luoyang is still a strong city that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.If it is not planned properly, the siege is a joke.

Li Bi's eyes were like a torch, and he sighed quietly: "Luoyang is surrounded by sanitation, and there are many powerful passes. The situation is dangerous. There are three passes on each of the four borders of the five hundred miles of Zhou Wangcheng. It can be said that the only way to enter Luoyang."

With a movement of the pole, Li Bi said, "There are Xiaopingjin and Mengjin in the north of Luoyang, the Xuanmen Pass in the east, and the four passes of Yique, Guangcheng, Dagu, and Shenyuan in the south."

"In the west there is Zhucheng Pass, and our army is in the west of Henan County, so if our army wants to attack Luoyang, there are only three passes, namely, Hubcheng Pass, Dagu Pass, and Yique Pass."

Speaking of this, Li Bi sighed, and said: "First of all, Hubcheng Pass is the fortress that leads Luoyang to the west. It refers to Luodu in the east, Chang'an in the west, Jianhe in the south, and Mount Mang in the north."

"There is also a danger that one man is in charge of the pass, and ten thousand men cannot open it. It is the first of all the passes in Luoyang. In addition, with Henan|South as the basis, it is even more difficult to conquer the Hucheng Pass."

"Yiqueguan is located at the gate of South Longmen Mountain and Xiangshan Mountain in Luoyang. The two mountains stand in front of each other, and the Yi River flows through it. It is the only way for Luoyang to go south and Jingxiang to go north."

"As for Dagu Pass, Yique Pass and Shenyuan Pass form the horns of each other from east to west."

……

"The eight gates protect each other, and it is the century-old capital of the emperor of Zhou. Luoyang is the second strongest city in the world after Xianyang. What's more, Luoyang stores more than two million dendrobium grains, almost comparable to the Ao Cang back then."

"The general thought that the first battle would be to surprise the hub city, then conquer Luoyang, and then pacify Sanchuan."

Li Bi knew that all the food in Luoyang City came from Ao Cang except for the original food and grass in Luoyang.If Luoyang is acquired, it will also alleviate the current situation of the Great Qin Empire.

At this moment, Bai Shu and the others looked complicated.They didn't expect Li Bi, the Xianyang order, a civil official, to know military affairs.

"What are the chances of winning?" Bai Shu's voice became a little hoarse, and he had to admit that what Li Bi said was true.

Li Bi's analysis was clear and accurate, and he knew the surrounding environment of Luoyang like the palm of his hand.It can be seen that Li Bi has made large-scale preparations for this war.

"Sixty percent." Li Bi swallowed back the word "seventy percent" abruptly. He knew that these people were eager for loopholes in their words and deeds so that they could take the opportunity to seize power.

Therefore, Li Bi opened his mouth very cautiously, he understood that only roundness and no trace can exist for a long time.

Thinking of this, Li Bi said calmly, "First, Sanchuan County borders me, so it is convenient to use troops. Henan Wang Shenyang went to Fengshan to meet the alliance, and the country has no master."

"Its most elite army followed Henan Wang Shenyang to Fengshan Huimeng. In addition, His Majesty led the army to Fengshan. It is impossible for Henan Wang Shenyang to support Luoyang in a short time."

"Moreover, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, is sitting on a mountain watching tigers fight. One hundred thousand Chu soldiers are enough to intimidate the surrounding countries of Henan, which is beneficial for our army to enter Luoyang."

Hearing Li Bi's words, Bai Shu and others were shocked, and they had to admit Li Bizhi's talent: "The general's words, good!"

"General, please give me an order to expand the land and borders of Great Qin!" All of a sudden, everyone in the big tent bowed down.

This is the upright old Qin people. They dare to face it directly, but they also dare to admit their mistakes.Acknowledge the strengths of others and face up to your own weaknesses.

"it is good!"

Nodding his head, Li Bi ordered decisively, saying: "The army will move out immediately, and attack the Zhucheng Pass at night!"

"Yes!" Nodding in agreement, Bai Shu and the others strode away.

Watching Bai Shu and others leave, Li Bi frowned, and then relaxed.The reason he said it was just one of them.

The fundamental reason why he decided to attack Zhucheng Pass was that the defense of Zhucheng Pass was weak at the moment. It was because Henan Wang Shenyang went to Huimeng, and the defense reached the lowest level.

And everyone in the world knows that the way of the Great Qin Empire's military use has always been to leave Hangu Pass in the east.But now the Qin army at Hanguguan has not moved, and just now the Qin army took down half of Hedong County.

No one would have expected that the Great Qin Empire would go crazy at this time.

The Henan Kingdom never thought that the Great Qin Empire would attack Luoyang, so at this time Luoyang's military equipment was extremely lax. At this moment, there are only [-] troops in the Luoyang area, including the major passes.

Therefore, at this time, the defense of the Hucheng Pass is the weakest. According to the news from the scouts, the army of the Hucheng Pass does not exceed 5000 people.

The most important thing is that time is extremely beneficial to Daqin.Even if the army marched day and night, it would take at least three days to reach Luoyang.

Ten days of free time was enough for the Qin army to occupy all the passes and fortresses in Luoyang.

What's more, Qin Emperor Hu Hai is blocking.In this way, the Qin army had plenty of time to attack Luoyang.

……

The Qin army marched extremely fast, and marched at night without slowing down.When the army bypassed Henan County, the soldiers of the Qin Army rushed away.

After a day and a night of raiding, the soldiers of the Qin Army had already entered the border of Zhucheng Pass at sunset.

July is long, and although the sun has set, the scenery of the wilderness is still far away.In the twilight, you can see the flags fluttering, and Li Bi's army is overwhelming.

Li Bi calculated the advancing speed in his mind, and suddenly waved his hand, saying: "The army stopped advancing, unfurled the banner of the Henan flag, and entered the pass with the Henan king flag."

"The rest of the army will follow, ready to support at any time!"

"Yes!" Nodding in agreement, Bai Shu hesitated for a moment, and said, "General, in the name of King of Henan, is it too dangerous?"

"Ha ha……"

Laughing loudly, Li Bi shook his head and said, "Except for the frame of Henan Wang Shenyang, it is impossible for the rest of the troops to enter the customs at sunset."

"And Henan King Shenyang was born in a military general. He rode into the customs. It's not that the explanation is incomprehensible."

This time, Li Bi wanted to open and close the door fraudulently.Therefore, before the decision was made, he ordered Sima of the Chinese army to prepare the Henan State Armor and the Henan King's Banner.

In the darkness of night, it is easiest to pass under the name of Henan Wang Shenyang.After all, the general guarding the pass may not have met Henan Wang Shenyang.

Bai Shu nodded, waved his hand, and said, "Order: Zuo Ying, change clothes immediately, and set off in a quarter of an hour!"
