Dasan Pass.
At this moment, there was chaos in the pass, and the soldiers shouted, and the road leading to the pass was almost blocked. Soldiers kept rushing to the pass, and some people ignited the beacon, and black smoke rolled.
Outside the pass, the Han army was approaching.
Liu Taozi rode a war horse and was located in the central army.
Tens of thousands of troops spread out, and the entire official road was occupied by the Han army for dozens of miles.
The soldiers were divided into many formations and arranged neatly.
I saw the generals riding war horses and wearing heavy armor. The war horses under their arms were all covered with armor. The soldiers surrounded these generals, among the many small square formations, the soldiers located around them.
Earth, all wearing armor.
This armor-wearing rate is an exaggeration visible to the naked eye. Looking around, it seems that everyone is wearing armor, and the armor-wearing stomach is shining with cold light.
The darkness was a large area, and the officers who were closing the walls were all scared to death.
A pole of flags is located in the army, and various types of flags are intertwined, as dense as trees.
The Zhou people knew nothing about the large-scale attacks of the Han army, but despite this, places like Dasanguan,
That is also the top priority. As a gateway to advance into Hanzhong, there are large troops here to guard it.
The general who sits here is Wang Qian, the Duke of Yong Kingdom.
That's right, he is the son of Wang Xiong who was shot and killed by Huluguang.
After Wang Xiong died in battle, the temple gave many posthumous titles and also gave many rewards to Wang Xiong's son. In order to calm the hearts of the people, the temple was promoted to the general of the Pillar Kingdom and commanded the army after he allowed him to inherit the title of Duke Yong.
Take charge.
At this moment, Wang Qian looked at the Han army that suddenly appeared in the distance, with a dull look on his face.
He couldn't understand why so many Han troops appeared here. Didn't he say that the enemy was short of troops and only thousands of people were robbing back and forth in various places?
Why did thousands of people become tens of thousands in the blink of an eye? Judging from this situation, there are more than tens of thousands of people, and there are still troops coming from behind. Is this the main army of Han who came directly?
Wang Qian himself has no talent, and he is an official and a general is just because of his father. Until now, this general of the Zhu Kingdom has never fought a battle.
From this we can also see the drawbacks of the official position of Zhou State, or in other words, the State of Qi State also had such problems. In the past, the officials of the Beijing National People's Congress were able to inherit their father's title, but also their official position and the army, which was very bad.
It is nothing to do with hereditary titles, but it is also true that the army and official positions are so. It is really unreasonable. The open law prohibits such behavior, but such things happen frequently.
If the warriors are too strong, this may result.
Wang Qian has the highest title and official position.
After Chang'an was defeated, he led his army to serve the king. On the way, Yuwen Xian stopped him, asking him to regain the army of support with his official position and title, move into Dasan Pass, control the surrounding areas, and set up defenses here.
Give a guarantee for the future retreat.
Wang Qian followed his orders and actively recruited troops from all over the country, and then stationed near Dasan Pass to strengthen the checkpoints and control entry and exit, which also made contributions.
After Yuwen Xian returned to Hanzhong, he submitted a letter to ask for his merits and was appointed as the General of the Pulse Kingdom.
Let him formally guard the Hanzhong portal.
There are many capable people under Yuwen Xian, but most of them are young and it is impossible for the generals to surrender.
Without official positions and titles like Wang Qian, it is easy to cause separation.
Whether the local government recognizes him as the court depends on whether the chief here recognizes him or not.
"General!"
"We should send troops to attack while the enemy's army has not arrived yet!"
At this time, some officers had already begun to offer advice to Wang Qian.
When Wang Qian heard this, he was stunned.
"send troops??"
"Our army is depressed and the enemy is in high spirits. I see that there is still a great emperor in the enemy formation. Liu Taozi is still there. How can he send troops to attack?!"
Wang Qian's talent is average, but he is very cautious.
This is probably the reason why Yuwen Xian was relieved to let him stay here.
Wang Qian immediately made arrangements, defended with all his might, never leave the city, and asked for help behind him!!
"Dong!!!Dong!!!Dong!!!Dong!"
The sound of war drums in Han Dynasty sounded.
I saw a car carrying big drums in the Han army formation. These war drums were distributed throughout the army, with hundreds of them. The drummer was naked, revealing his strong muscles, holding a big hammer, and now he began to be crazy.
As they beat the drums, the hundreds of big drums were vocalized at the same time, like thunder. The morale of the Han soldiers was high and they all started to roar!!
The Zhou army was blocked last time, and he was extremely shocked.
When the emperor of the Han army slowly moved forward, enough to make the guards at the gate discovered it, even the officers began to feel fear.
Liu Taozi is here!!!
"kill!!!"
Liu Taozi raised the long sword in his hand and pointed it at Sanguan.
These phalanxes gradually separated, and the military craftsmen pushed the siege equipment prepared in advance and began to advance.
The rows of throwing cars were located in the military formation.
"Boom~~~"
Zu Ban spent his time looking at a lot of siege equipment. The accuracy of these throwing cars is actually very low, and often cannot shoot the target. His destructive power is not as powerful as the artillery in the future. When he encounters a city wall that is too strong,
Just helpless!
However, this thing is indeed a necessary weapon to hit morale. When the throwing car makes a thunder sound, huge stones fly in their direction, some hit the ground, some hit the wall, and some fall on it
Flying stones flew across the sky in front of him, which was a huge blow to the defenders.
Wang Qian was shocked and hurriedly retreated under the escort of several officers.
He looked pale and kept muttering, "Why are there so many.........Why are there so many...."
I don’t know if what he said is more agaric, more war drums, or more throwing cars.
The attack had not yet begun, and the car was thrown into bombardment for a long time. This time, the stones were almost used up. I don’t know how long they had been bombing.
Then, the ladder truck, rushing car, ladder, wooden shield truck, and many siege equipment moved forward at the same time. Shenshi raised his big shield and began to protect him, while the crossbowmen kept moving forward and trying hard to suppress him.
The defenders on the city wall then began to launch a counterattack.
Arrows kept flying between the two sides.
The siege equipment was destroyed and stayed halfway, but some of them succeeded. They began to hit the city wall. The crossbowmen continued to advance, and some knights suppressed them by riding and shooting. The counterattack on the city wall seemed to be
Becoming weaker.
Wang Qian was frightened.
The wall of the gate was quickly suppressed, and the enemy's attack was too smooth and there was no drag on it. If this continues, I am afraid that in less than half an hour, I will have to be thrown away in Sanguan!!
Wang Qian reacted, these dogs wanted to pass the dispersion level quickly!! This was a fight without leaving any effort, and he wanted to take it down in one go!!
Wang Qian did not hesitate, nor did he leave any more energy, and directly sent the reserves together.
The walls were filled with people, and the defenders were constantly destroying the ladders and pushing the Han army down one by one.
The rusher below has begun to attack the door shut.
The door closed and the sound of grief was heard.
The soldiers in the pass began to strengthen them desperately.
The scorching sun shines, and the sound of fighting continues and never stops.
Zu Ban rode a fast horse and came to Liu Taozi at this moment, with a little solemn in his eyes, "This Wang Qian is just as talented as ever, I never thought that he could resist this level! Your Majesty, choose a powerful general first!!"
"I'd like to board first!"
Shi Wansui, who has been staying by the King of Heaven, spoke up.
Liu Taozi looked at him, "Cut off this pass and you should pay your honorary title!"
"only!!!"
Shi Wansui looked around and brought the elite troops of his troops, all wearing armor, holding shields in one hand and short-soldiers in the other, and rushed towards the wall.
Liu Taozi made someone beat the drum again.
The drums were loud again.
The soldiers launched a fierce attack and attacked again. Then they saw Shi Wansui's ladder carriage climbing up the wall and rushing around. The enemy, with hundreds of iron armor, opened a passage, and a large number of soldiers rushed towards him.
wall.
"boom!!"
Close the door and collapse.
The two sides entered the second stage of the war, street fighting!
The Han army entered one after another, and the two sides continued their bloody battles in the pass!
Wang Qian gathered a large number of troops, and the troops here were more than 30,000.
This is already a lot for the Zhou Kingdom today. Even when Zhou Kingdom was the most powerful, it is impossible for any single upper pillar country to have so many troops.
Yang Zhong only brought more than 5,000 people to the expedition like this.
As the closing was broken, the bloody battle between the two sides entered a more intense state.
Wang Qian is holding a spear in his hand and is commanding the battle.
A guard came to see the horse, hoping that Wang Qian would escape.
"I am a person without any talent! Only because of your Majesty's kindness can you take on the heavy responsibility!"
"My father died in battle for the country. How could I escape as his son? To shame him?"
"There are more than 10,000 people in the city, so I will never leave them and escape! Let me beat the war drum and fight back against the enemy!!
R
Wang Qian was particularly afraid, but he still gritted his teeth and said this.
The guards spoke one after another, willing to fight for him to die.
As the war drums sounded in the pass, Wang Qian personally led the army to fight back.
The entire Sanguan became hell in an instant. Both sides continued to kill, with flesh and blood flying everywhere, broken limbs and broken arms spread all over the place, and corpses piled up high, almost forming hills. In order to continue moving forward, the soldiers even needed
Only by moving away from the house in front of you can we move forward.
The scorching sun slowly sets, and the sky is surrounded by a blood-colored sunset.
The entire Sanguan has been beaten to a terrible surprise.
Wang Qian's hand holding the sword was shaking constantly.
His army had been defeated by the enemy, and they were dead and fled.
Looking around, there were no more than a dozen guards standing around the Zhou army.
Still standing around him.
Shi Wansui looked at him panting, holding a spear.
"My lord and righteousness are my lord and righteousness. Everyone surrenders to me wherever they go. Why don't you surrender?!"
Wang Qian's face was swollen and covered in scars. He looked at the army around him.
"If a soldier doesn't fight hard, it's because I'm incompetent and I'm dragging down the three armies!"
After Wang Qian finished speaking, the sword in his hand smeared directly towards his neck, and blood spurted out and fell to the ground with a bang.
The guards cried and howled, but only a few chose to commit suicide, while the rest chose to surrender.
The Han army shouted.
Liu Taozi rode into the pass on a war horse.
Sanguan fell into the hands of the Han army. Although there were serious casualties, Hanzhong was in front of them after taking down Sanguan.
The army entered, and Shi Longsui came to pay homage.
"Your Majesty! I have fulfilled my mission! I have already taken down San Pass!"
"good."
"Advance General Ru Anbei!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!!"
"Reorganize the army, and three days later, the troops will be sent to Hanzhong!!"
"only!!!"
Hanzhong.
The prince Yuwen officially ascended the throne.
But this throne ceremony was held very briefly.
The officials who had just come out stood on both sides, watching the new emperor change into clothes and sit in the upper seat.
A doctor read out the edict and formally declared Yuwenzan the emperor.
Everyone saluted and recognized the new ruler.
Yuwen Zan couldn't hide his joy.
There is no main hall here, so they can only hold this event in the official office. Fortunately, there are still many people participating, which can barely represent the ideas of the upper class of Zhou State.
The soldiers stood in the distance to protect everyone's safety.
It was not until Yuwen put on the crown garment that the huge rock in his heart fell.
He cleared his throat and was about to speak.
"His Majesty!!"
Gao Ying suddenly stood up and looked around.
He said, "Your Majesty is exhausted and he is really tired. He should go back and rest first, and the ministers will discuss the rest of the matters."
Yuwen was shocked.
He hurriedly said, "I'm not tired, I can still handle it, I can still handle it."
Gao Ying didn't look at him at all, but added: "Although Your Majesty has ascended the throne, he is still young and cannot rule in person.
I think several important officials should be selected to assist in the administration together, and then the emperor will be given the title before he will take charge of the power."
As soon as Gao Ying spoke, the ministers began to nod and say goodbye.
When Yuwen Xian was in charge of Chang'an, the Zhou State almost broke up. In order to calm the people's hearts, he was eager to reshape the court, so many people were promoted to officials to win over and appease. Therefore, the officials who were temporarily pieced together were among them.
More than 80% of those who were Yuwen Xian as officials were all arranged by Yuwen Xian. As Yuwen Xian's mouth, Gao Ying would of course nod to what he said.
If Yuwen Xian hadn't had a uncertain idea, in fact, he would have to say the throne, and the throne was just a matter of orthodoxy, and support and ability were the real ones. Just say that Chen State, Chen Chang would go back
, Can you really compete for the throne with Chen Bei?? At that time, the situation of Chen State was very similar to that of Zhou State today. Chen also made many contributions. Both the army and civil servants supported him, except that he did not have the identity of the prince.
All that should be.
Even the queen was still there at that time, but Chen could not be restricted at all.
Yuwen Xian just doesn’t have that ambition.
Now that he wants to do it, there is basically no obstacle.
At this moment, Yang Su, the emperor's attendant standing in the distance, looked drastically.
Of course, not everyone agreed, so a few righteous gentlemen who were selfish stood up and refuted Gao Ying's words.
They believed that although the emperor was young, he should obey the government and could not send it back directly and ignored anything.
In addition, if you want to set up a minister to assist the country, you must be the elders of the royal family or the old ministers take the lead. How can you, a young boy, take the lead here?!
Gao Ying was not angry either. He waited until these people finished speaking, and looked at Yuwen Xian.
"I wonder what the king thinks?"
Yuwen Xian stood up and looked at everyone.
The atmosphere suddenly became subtle.
Even the few righteous gentlemen just now stopped talking.
"I think it's OK."
Yuwen Xian looked at the emperor and said, "Please go back and rest first."
Yuwen Zan was shocked and wanted to say something harsh. He suddenly looked at Yang Su, but found that Yang Su's face looked ugly than him. Before he could react, the guard took him and ran directly.
go.
In an instant, the emperor who had just taken office disappeared.
Yuwen Xian looked at many royal families and ministers, and his eyes finally fell on Yuchi Jiong.
"Duke of Shu, in the current state of chaos and danger, only when we work together can we overcome the difficulties.
I want to help you with the government and fight against powerful enemies, but I don’t know what to do with the public opinion?!”
Wei Chi Jiong was a little surprised. He said calmly: "I am a straight man and I know how far the current situation has reached. I have no strength to compete with the king. If the king wants to regent alone and defeat the powerful enemy, just kill me.
That's right, there's no need to pretend to invite me to assist in the administration, and I'll have a lot of gums...:"
Yuwen Xian took a few steps and suddenly pulled out the sword of the tiger-responsible armored soldier.
Everyone was shocked.
Yuwen Xian took out his sword and stroked his palm, and blood surged.
"I am dedicated to supporting the country, and I sincerely hope to assist in the administration with Duke Yuchi. If I violate my oath, I will not be able to rest in peace after death!"
Yuchi Jiong was shocked and bowed to Yuwen Xian, "I wish to serve the king!"
Yuwen Xian looked at Yang Jian next.
"Duke Sui, I had a disagreement with you in the past, but now, the country has indeed reached its most dangerous time. You and Liu Taozi have a grudge against his father, and you have a private hatred for the country. We should join forces to deal with him. We should not be here.
Centrifuge at this time!
,
"I wonder if the Duke of the State is willing to fight against the powerful enemy with me?"
Yang Jian was a little moved and hurriedly walked out to pay homage to him, "I'm sure I wish!"
Yuwen Xian spoke to several royal families and the situation became clearer.
Just as everyone was discussing a major event, a soldier walked in quickly and looked at Gao.
Gao Ying quietly went out and whispered a few times to the soldier, then his face changed drastically.
The next moment, Gao returned to Yuwen Xian and lowered his voice.
"Master."
"The Han army concentrated its army, claiming to have 200,000, and is attacking Sanguan!"
"Duke Yong led his troops to resist and was eager to ask for help!"
Yuwen Xian took a deep breath and then looked at everyone.
"Everyone, Liu Taozi has already set out for war. His army claims to have 200,000, and is attacking San Pass!
"The situation is so critical that I shouldn't be distracted by him!"
"Duke of Shu! I want you to lead troops to reinforce! What do you think?!"
Chapter completed!
