Chapter 59
Hangu Pass is the dividing line between Guanzhong and outside Guanzhong. There were three Hangu Passes in history. At this time, Hangu Pass was located about 30 miles north of Taolin County, Sanchuan County.
To the south is the continuous Qinling Mountains, and to the north is the Yellow River. The width that can allow the army to pass is only about five miles, which is a width of two and a half kilometers.
Hangu Pass faces south and faces north. Not far from the entrance to the gate is the Yellow River, with Taolin County at its back. If there is a change, support from Taolin County can arrive within half a day.
"Sir, it's not easy to capture Hangu Pass with only 30,000 people!" Guan Ying did not agree directly this time.
Although the garrison strength of Hangu Pass is only over 10,000, facing such a natural and dangerous pass, it is really not a matter of too many people but too few.
The place is only that big, and if you throw in a million people, there will only be so many people on the battlefield at the same time.
The Hangu Pass is grand and majestic, and the gate towers are surrounded by gold and green.
"I passed by Hangu Pass in the early years. There were trenches inside and outside the pass to keep horses out. The widest part of the pass where I can actually pass can probably accommodate ten carriages passing side by side. Moreover, I passed by Hangu Pass in the Hangu Pass.
We haven’t seen more than ten thousand soldiers at Guguan. It seems that there are only about three or four thousand soldiers at most, but they are guarded by captains. It is said that there is a Hangu garrison camp in the surrounding mountains and forests." Guan Ying talked about Hangu Pass in detail.
Case.
This is probably how it looked when he passed by three or four years ago. No one knows what it is like now.
But everyone is well aware of the passing capacity of Hangu Pass. It is said that Zhang Han's 600,000-strong army took five days to pass through Hangu Pass.
Although traffic capacity seems useless, it can indirectly tell everyone a fact.
There are so many difficulties even in the normal movement of large armies, but what about during combat?
This directly means that your troops will not be able to form formations here.
The setting of the level is precisely to achieve this point, so that the defenders can attack you to the maximum extent, while the attacker can only compress the formation to face attacks several times that of the defenders at the same time.
In strategic terms, it is to control the number of troops between the enemy and ourselves on a local battlefield, so that you have more troops but can do nothing.
Wang Buxu frowned. Having said that, Hangu Pass is indeed not easy to get.
The leading troops of the attack can only pass by in a long snake formation. At this time, if the defenders hidden in the mountains and forests suddenly attack and cut off the front and rear troops, then the leading troops will suffer a huge blow, and it is not surprising that they will all be destroyed.
But if I think about it more carefully, it’s not right!
Why can Zhou Wen win Hangu Pass, but my king can’t do it unless he is hungry?
Men all over the world can say no, but I, the King, cannot say no if I am not hungry.
"You're too reckless!" Wang Buxu waved his hand. As long as his head was strong enough, he dared to turn the steel plate into slag.
"Boa, Master, are you saying to let the boa go to scare them?" Guan Ying was stunned for a moment and looked at Wang Buxu, a little confused.
"Uh..." Wang Buxu realized that this was not in the future, and people here didn't understand what Mang meant, but even if they didn't understand, your Guan Ying's thinking was too confusing, right?
You even released a python to scare them. Why don't you say that everyone stands in front of the pass and one of them pees and collapses the Hangu Pass?
"Zhou Wen had just captured Hangu Pass and entered Guanzhong from the west a few months ago. The original Qin army defenders must have been gone. Later, Hangu Pass was always in Zhou Wen's hands. Zhou Wen retreated steadily, and Zhang Han regained control of Hangu Pass.
Guguan. Who are the troops in Zhang Han's hands? They are all Lishan prisoners. Are any of those prisoners capable of fighting? There are none. In addition, they have been stationed for more than a month and the time is still short. I am afraid they have not figured out the defense of the pass yet.
What’s the point!”
Wang Buxu said calmly.
"Yes, the garrison at Hangu Pass must have been newly replaced, and Zhang Han's 600,000-strong army cannot be as simple as annihilating Chen Sheng when he leaves the pass this time. His purpose is probably to completely quell this turmoil, but Liu
One hundred thousand troops scattered everywhere may seem insufficient. If you are lucky enough, Zhang Han may not have left too many troops at Hangu Pass!" Guan Ying finally woke up as if from a dream.
Secretly I feel a little ashamed, why am I older than Wang Buxu and seem to have more experience than him, but why do I seem so inexperienced in front of Wang Buxu?
You can't even think of such a simple thing?
After thinking for a long time, Guan Ying could only sigh secretly in his heart.
Hey, Wang Buxu mistook me!!!
It's all because Wang Buxu thinks too comprehensively on weekdays, which makes him a little dependent. Many times he is even too lazy to think about it.
It is indeed easy to fall when you are around someone who is too good!
"Well, your first task is to capture Hangu Pass and then defend it. Without defensive pressure, you can appropriately allocate some troops to capture the surrounding cities. One is to replenish the troops and food and the other is to disrupt the Qin Dynasty.
The military plan prevents them from focusing all their energy on you. As long as Hangu Pass is not lost, the food and fodder of Zhang Han's army will not be replenished."
Having said this, Wang Buxian's eyes suddenly lit up.
When a genius fights, he never has to look at so many plans and plans.
Most of the time, genius only needs a flash of inspiration, and the final results will be much greater than those who calculate over and over again.
Wang Buxu suddenly realized that he was really a genius. Every time he deployed before a war, there would always be a few rays of light that he couldn't control and had to flash out. As a result, he flashed to the top of the Great Qin Rebellion.
People are in this position.
This is not what Wang Buxu himself boasts, but what people all over the world say.
Although Chen Sheng is earlier and has more power and territory, this is the result of a series of evaluations based on development plans, mental and emotional intelligence, etc.
"The loss of Xingyang and Aocang will definitely disrupt Zhang Han's deployment. Therefore, I think he will definitely find a way to mobilize grain from Taicang in Guanzhong. Once Hangu Pass is lost, the grain will most likely be
Stock up near Hangu Pass, or come in through Wuguan Pass in the south."
The blood in the body can't help but agitate, every cell is stimulating Wang Buxuan, fuck him! Fuck him!
Wang Buxu bit his silver teeth and said to himself: 'Blow, you must brag hard! If you don't even dare to brag about your awesomeness, how dare you think of any good things? Go ahead and eat the shit you want!'
"When the time comes, you should pay more attention to the situation around Hangu Pass and see if there are any convoys gathered. I will send a troop to Wuguan at that time. If we can do it well this time, we will definitely punish you.
Make him a fortune!"
"Once we take over these grains, Zhang Hande will just stare blankly. Counties in the Central Plains can barely supply these grains, but..."
Having said this, the light in Wang Buxian's head suddenly flashed again, and another genius-like idea came out of thin air.
"As long as Hangu Pass is captured in this battle, there is no need for us to confront them head-on in other areas. We must find ways to capture the counties and transport all the grain away or disperse it so that Zhang Han cannot receive grain support from these counties. Sixty
Although the army of ten thousand is scary, it still has 600,000 mouths waiting for food. Without food, what can Zhang Han do?"
"Do it, do it well, do it hard, until Zhang Han attacks Xingyang, the soldiers will behead him because he is hungry!"
Wang Buxu boasted fiercely, since there was no need for money anyway, and there was no price to pay for failure. On the contrary, as long as Zhang Han could be prevented from obtaining food, it would be beneficial to the war situation.
Thank you for the reward support of The Power of Silence! The definition of Zhongyuan first appeared in Shangshu, Yu Gong. The world is divided into nine states, and Yuzhou is located in the center. Therefore, according to this period in the book, it is most appropriate to call it Zhongzhou, but I am still used to calling it
For the sake of Zhongyuan, don’t be serious with me. Whoever dares to be serious about this issue, please vote for recommendation first, then give a reward, and then we will have a serious discussion (tactics to cheat recommendations! tactics to cheat rewards!
