Chapter 56 Surprise Attack on Gaoguan

From the expression on Yu Kaifeng's face, Li Shiqi could tell that his soldiers must have seen the Chu flags densely covered in the mountains, and the billowing smoke could confuse them and make them think that there were dozens of Chu troops on the opposite side.

Ten thousand troops.

Li Shiqi knew that the opportunity was ripe. He put down the tea cup in his hand and said with a smile: "Although my lord has hundreds of thousands of troops stationed, he is unwilling to attack Aoguan. General, do you know why?"

"Tell me and listen." Yu Kaifeng's tone became sincere. He already knew that the Chu army was in the mountains opposite. Since the Chu army was able to flourish in the land of Guandong, and now it is approaching the Pass, then the Chu army is definitely not the same.

An army that can be underestimated.

"The power of the Qin State has been exhausted. Wherever the Chu army went, they all surrendered in admiration. Now my army is approaching the city. I don't want to kill too much. I just hope that the general can accept my lord's gift and surrender. My lord will definitely not treat the general badly."

Yue Kaifeng became hesitant. He stood up and walked around in the tent. At this time, Li Shiqi gave a wink to a hundred commanders, who walked over and opened all five boxes. Inside, there were gold and jewelry.

, there are countless shells and other objects, which are all very valuable in this era. Finally, as the greed in Kaifeng's heart became more troublesome, he couldn't help but laugh loudly and said: "In this case, I promise.

.”

...

At night, Li Shiqi drank and dined at the Qin army's camp, briefly discussed the matter of his return with Yu Kaifeng, and then led his troops back to the camp in a hurry at midnight.

After leaving the camp in the mountains, the road was difficult to travel at night, and Li Shiqi endured a lot of hardships before he came back. At this time, Liu Bang had not gone to bed. Now Liu Bang was not sure whether Aoguan could be persuaded, and he was anxious and uneasy.

Soon, a personal guard rushed in, cupped his hands in front of Liu Bang and said, "My lord, Lord Li is back."

Liu Bang was overjoyed, stood up and said with a smile: "Bring him in quickly."

Soon, Li Shiqi walked into the tent in a dusty state. He calmed down his excitement and said with a smile: "My lord, the guard general Yu Kaifeng has agreed to surrender. He will surrender as long as the lord promises an official position."

"Great!" Liu Bang high-fived and said with a smile, "Mr. Li, what position do you think I should give him?"

"This man is greedy for money and lustful, and it is not easy for him to become a general. It is the Qin State's carelessness in employing people that caused the fall of Yaoguan easily. If the lord surrenders this general, you might as well let him take charge of an empty post."

"A false position?" Liu Bang fell into deep thought.

At this time, hurried footsteps sounded outside the tent, and soon Zhang Liang walked in with a big smile: "Hahaha, I heard that Mr. Li is back, so I came here specially."

Zhang Liang walked into the tent. Liu Bang was worried about what kind of military position he should give to Qin's general. When he saw Zhang Liang, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Zifang came just in time. I am worried about what kind of military position should I give to Qin's general."

What about my duties?"

"Lord, we cannot surrender the Qin generals." Zhang Liang said firmly.

"Why is this?" Liu Bang was surprised and looked at Zhang Liang with a slightly questioning look. At first, it was Zhang Liang who asked him to persuade Qin General to surrender. Now, it is Zhang Liang who persuaded him to give up Qin General. What the hell is he doing?

Zhang Liang saw Liu Bang's doubts. He walked to the soft seat and sat down, and then said: "The Qin general is willing to surrender, but the tens of thousands of Qin troops at Aoguan may not be willing to surrender. If the general recruits the Qin army for a while, it will be difficult to protect him."

After the troops enter Guanzhong, the Qin army will not defect before the battle. At that time, our army will be in danger if it falls into Guanzhong."

What Zhang Liang said made sense. Liu Bang nodded, "Does the wife have any clever ideas?"

"I heard that there is Mount Jiang to the east of Yaoguan. There is a small road in Mount Mount, which can lead directly to the back of Yaoguan. If our army can send an elite force to bypass Yaoguan from Mount Jiang, we can take advantage of the fact that the Qin general has no troops tonight.

Be prepared, kill him by surprise, and then attack the Aoguan pass with a large army, which can be broken."

"Mountain?" Liu Bang was still hesitating, but Zhang Liang said again: "Soldiers need speed, generals must not hesitate any longer."

Liu Bang thought for a moment, then made up his mind and shouted outside the tent: "Come here, get Zhou Bo quickly!"

In the early morning, when the sky was slightly bright, a Chu army of more than 10,000 people was traveling rapidly on the mountain road. This was the Mount Jiang mentioned in Zhang Liang's mouth. The mountain road was rugged and the soldiers could not control the horses, so they had to lead the horses and use tree branches to guide them.

As a crutch, I walked hard.

But they did not dare to relax at all. They had to rush to the back of the pass within the time given by Liu Bang, and then the army made a surprise attack on the pass and set the Qin camp on fire. This would cause panic and the Qin army would inevitably collapse. At that time, the Chu army would have no trouble.

Take Aoguan.

At first, everyone thought that Zhang Liang wanted to persuade him to surrender at Yaoguan. It was not until Liu Bang suddenly summoned Zhou Bo at night and mobilized his troops to go on an expedition that everyone knew that Zhang Liang was bluffing, that the negotiations were fake, and that the surprise attack was real.

Soon, an exclamation came from the front, interrupting Zhou Bo's meditation. Zhou Bo immediately asked: "What's going on in front?"

"A soldier slipped!" one person replied.

Zhou Bo frowned slightly and said displeasedly: "Send two brothers down to look for it, and the rest will move on."

Along the way through Mount Jiang, Chu soldiers kept slipping and falling, but the Chu army had to continue to move forward. Although the mountain road was difficult and dangerous, they arrived at dawn to the west of Mount Mount. Here, Zhou Bo's army temporarily set up

Several stoves were set up and pots were buried to make rice. After eating, everyone found a big tree to lean against and fell into a deep sleep.

After a day's rest, everyone wiped away the fatigue of the past few days. At this time, as the sun set, Zhou Bo opened his eyes slightly and looked at the sky. In another hour, it will be dark, and the Chu army will attack on a large scale.

He stood up, stretched his muscles, and ordered a deputy general: "Gather the troops, let's go!"

...

"Dong dong dong" the rumbling war drums sounded outside the Pass. The Chu army was waiting in strict formation, with shield soldiers in front and archers behind, slowly advancing. From time to time, the uniform shouts of the Chu army soldiers could be heard:

"Hoo...ho..."

At the top of Aoguan City, the soldiers of the Qin army temporarily boarded the city. They looked in front of them in surprise. The Chu army actually attacked the city at dark.

Many people were discussing secretly. They heard that the defender Yu Kaifeng had surrendered to the Chu army, so why did he still attack the city? Did some details fall apart? Many people began to speculate, and many people were uneasy.

At this time, the siege drums were getting faster and faster, and the Chu army was about to charge. Yu Kaifeng had just received the news. He came to the top of the city and looked into the distance. Liu Bang was wearing a red cloak and waving his long sword in the middle of the army.

The sword seemed to be telling the soldiers something.

Yue Kaifeng began to wonder. Li Shiqi had clearly promised that Liu Bang would accept his surrender. At this time, the Chu army was approaching the city. What was going on?

Because he agreed to surrender to the Chu army, Yu Kaifeng ordered the city to be lifted and played with the treasures brought by Li Shiqi in the camp. However, the Chu army suddenly attacked the city, leaving Yaoguan without adequate preparations. At this time, the city

The Qin army at the head was only a few thousand strong.

It takes time to temporarily mobilize an army. Yu Kaifeng was anxiously wandering at the top of the city. Suddenly, someone pointed to the west of Aoguan and shouted: "General, look, it's on fire!"

Yue Kaifeng looked back in surprise, and saw that the fire inside the Pass was indeed blazing into the sky. He became anxious and ordered the soldiers at the top of the city to stand ready and not give the Chu army a chance to get closer. Then, he hurriedly walked down the city tower.

Just as he arrived at the foot of the city tower, Yu Kaifeng took the reins from his attendant, got on his horse, and prepared to go to the camp to mobilize troops to see what went wrong and why the fire filled the pass, but not far away, there was a burst of sound.

Scream: "Kill..."

This is an army of unknown origin. Yu Kaifeng rode his horse away with doubts. On the horse, Yu Kaifeng shouted: "Whose army?"

A general came galloping on his horse. Through the dim moonlight and the light of the surrounding torches, Yu Kaifeng finally saw clearly that this man was wearing a red military robe. He was a Chu general!

Did the Chu general fall from the sky? Yue Kaifeng was surprised, and just when he was about to draw out his sword, a sharp spear pierced his heart. With a scream, Yue Kaifeng was lifted up in the air by Zhou Bo.

The Chu army shouted mightily, and Zhou Bo waved his spear and threw Yu Kaifeng away. Then he pointed forward and shouted: "Seize the city gate first, then kill the Qin army!"

The Chu army was like a roaring army, riding their horses to kill at the city gate.

Outside, the Chu army has begun to attack the city. The shield soldiers are in front, the archers are behind, and the cloud ladders are following closely. Outside the Aoguan Pass, shouts can be heard throughout the wilderness. The torches lit by the Chu army are like a flaming snake.

The mountain road was crawling, and soon the barbs of the ladders were hung on the top of the city, and the Chu army began to climb the ladders to climb the city.

A team of a hundred Chu soldiers carried the wooden sticks and rushed towards the city gate. After the roaring sound of the impact, the door was opened inside the city. A Chu soldier shouted in the doorway: "The pass has been lowered, brothers, charge forward."

Get in!"

Fire filled the top of the city of Aoguan. The Qin army was unprepared and was attacked from all sides by the Chu army. Almost all the Qin army on the city tower died in battle. However, below the city, the Qin army who came for reinforcements was killed by Zhou Bo.

Escape, and anyone who refuses to surrender will be killed without mercy.

When the sky was slightly bright, the Chu army planted their flags on the top of the city, and the military drums rumbled on the top of the city. After the city gate was opened, a group of Chu soldiers rode out on horseback and lined up on both sides of the city gate.

Liu Bang led the main force and slowly walked towards the inner gate of Yiguan. The moment he passed the city gate of Yiguan, Liu Bang was very excited. Xianyang was only one step away from him...

Entering Yaoguan, he saw the Chu soldiers waiting in formation and some dejected Qin soldiers tied together. Liu Bang wanted to order a day's rest before deciding where to go, but Zhang Liang reminded him: "Soldiers are valuable."

Be quick, don't give the Qin army a chance to breathe, the general can quickly attack Xianyang."

Hearing Zhang Liang's reminder, Liu Bang nodded and ordered: "Advance troops to Lantian!"

The Chu army traveled about a day's journey and met Geng Fa's army in Lantian, which was coming for reinforcements. Fifty thousand Qin troops were waiting in formation, while the Chu army was already preceded by 30,000 vanguard troops led by generals such as Fan Kuai, Zhou Bo and Guan Ying.

Arranged head-on, both sides slowly beat the war drums, and the war was about to break out.

Just when the two armies were in a stalemate, dust was flying in the distance, and Liu Bang's 100,000 main force slowly came to kill. At this time, Liu Bang had already taken the surrendered Qin soldiers into his command, assigned them to various camps, and kept them in the rear.

But Liu Bang's 100,000 main force had just arrived, and Fan Kuai, who had been confronting the Qin army, waved his axe, raised it forward, and shouted: "The main force is here, brothers, follow me and kill them!"

Fan Kuai, Zhou Bo and Guan Ying took the lead and rushed out. Behind them, 30,000 soldiers followed and attacked the Qin army. The Qin army also attacked the Chu army after they came out, with crossbowmen in front.

After shooting at the position, the cavalry, spearmen and soldiers from behind shouted and killed each other.

When the two armies just collided, Liu Bang waved his sword in front of the Chinese army, and one hundred thousand Chu troops swarmed forward like a landslide and a tsunami...
