. "Break back to Sanchuan County?" Wu She's intentional missed indeed attracted Chen Xi's attention. Chen Xi asked, "Sir, is the general in Sanchuan County?"

"Uh, this..." Wu She looked around, as if she was embarrassed.

Chen Xi quickly stepped back and then lowered his voice and asked, "Sir, General is really in Sanchuan County?"

Wu She hesitated for a moment, and finally told the truth: "Okay, let's not hide it from the general. The general has indeed arrived in Sanchuan County now. If nothing unexpected happens, he should have captured Luoyang now. Next, he will attack Hangu Pass and attack Xianyang and directly attack Liu Bang's old man's nest."

Wu She was of course talking nonsense. He was not sure whether the Chu army had crossed the river and entered Sanchuan County. As for the capture of Luoyang, he was even more unreasonable. His purpose was nothing more than to fool Chen Xi and deceive his tens of thousands of troops to attack Hulao Pass. Once Chen Xi's army captured Hulao Pass, it could become a barrier for Sanchuan County and indirectly help the Chu army attack Hangu Pass!

At the beginning, Wu She could not have thought of this, which was only thought of by Kuai Che's reminder.

"What? The general has captured Luoyang?!" Chen Xi was indeed shocked when he heard this.

Although Chen Xi has been trapped in Ao Cang City recently, his contact with the outside world has not been cut off, because there are many heroes from the world among his disciples. These people secretly went out of the city to inquire about the news. Although they did not know the whole truth, they also inquired about Liu Bang's pursuit of the Chu army.

As far as Chen Xi knows, the Chu army in Xiangzhuang was clearly trapped by Liu Bang and Han Xin in Qi. Why did they suddenly appear in Sanchuan County? They also captured Luoyang, and then they would steal Lu Ze's pass seal and deceive Hangu Pass? If this is true, wouldn't Xiang Zhuang and Wei Liao even deceive Zhang Liang and Chen Ping?

"What?" Wu She said calmly, "Don't the general believe it?"

"No, no, of course not." Chen Xi said hurriedly, "Since that's the case, I will lead my army to break Hulao Pass and rush to Sanchuan County to join the general!"

Almost instantly, Chen Xi made a decision - to go to Sanchuan County!

Of course, Chen Xi decided to go to Sanchuan County to join Xiangzhuang. In fact, Chen Xi now has a 30,000 army, and Xiangzhuang may still have only five or six thousand people? If the two armies really meet, whoever is in charge and whoever is in charge will have to be careful. Even though Chen Xi never thought of overwhelming Xiangzhuang, at least he should be on par, right?

As for Hulao Pass, Chen Xi didn't take it seriously. How could a small pass, two or three thousand defenders, stop his 30,000 army?

In fact, Hulao Pass became the most powerful pass in the world after the Eastern Han Dynasty. Because the Eastern Han Dynasty established its capital, Luoyang, and in order to protect Luoyang, the Han court repeatedly strengthened and raised the city walls of Hulao Pass, so that Hulao Pass became the most powerful pass in the world. However, at the end of the Qin Dynasty, Hulao Pass was just the most ordinary pass.

Luoyang, the county magistrate's office.

The Chu army searched all over the government office, but did not find Lu Ze's guard seal. It seemed that Lu Ze did not leave his guard seal in Luoyang, but brought it to the army. This was a bit beyond Xiang Zhuang's expectations. Without Lu Ze's guard seal, it would be a delusion to trick Hangu Pass into opening.

Xiang Zhuang sighed and asked Wei Liao: "Military advisor, can you open and close the door in the name of Lu Chan?"

Lu Chan is the young master who just opened the gate of the county magistrate's office to surrender, and is also the second son of the Sanchuan County Governor Lu Ze.

"It's impossible." Wei Liao shook his head and said, "I have heard of Gu Feng, the guardian of Hangu Pass. He is very honest in his life, not afraid of the powerful, and is more cautious in using troops. He is highly valued by Liu Bang, so he appointed him as the guardian of Hangu Pass! The general pretended to be Lu Chan in the name of Lu Chan, but the result was probably backfired."

Xiang Zhuang slammed boxing and said hatefully: "So, can you only be able to attack?"

To attack Hangu Pass, there must be a ladder. I don’t know if there is one in Luoyang Armory.

Xiang Zhuang turned around and ordered the former general Huan Chu and said, "Huan Chu, immediately lead troops to seal the arsenal of Luoyang, and then send troops to the streets. No matter what method you use, be sure to arrest all the blacksmiths, carpenters and weapon craftsmen in Luoyang City before dark today. Go quickly!"

Xiang Zhuang is also just to be on guard. If there is no ladder in the arsenal, it must be built as soon as possible.

As for blacksmiths and weapon craftsmen, they can also create some weapons, especially ring knives and javelins. The Chu army now urgently needs a large number of ring knives and javelins to strengthen their force.

"No!" Huan Chu agreed with a loud promise and took the order.

Xiang Zhuang said to Gao Chu, the captain of Nufeng again: "Gaochu, the task of blocking Luoyang City is handed over to Nufeng Camp. Without this general's instructions, no one is allowed to leave the city. Those who leave the city without authorization... will not be killed!"

"No!" Gao Chu agreed with the promise and immediately took the order.

Xiang Zhuang turned around and asked Gongsun Sui, "Is there still no news from Mr. Wushe?"

Xiang Zhuang was worried that Wei Liao's plan of separation would not be able to achieve perfect results, and he was also worried about Wu She's safety. Now the debater under his tent is Wu She. If something happens to an accident, it will be an irreparable loss. Although Wu She has little effect on the Chu army now, when all the princes form a separatist situation in the future, Wu She will become an indispensable talent.

In the future, how could the alliance between the State of Chu and the various vassal states be less than Wushe?

"No." Gongsun Sui shook his head and said, "But the villain has sent eighteen additional dead soldiers to pick him up, and has prepared ten small boats on the south bank of the river. The news should be heard back soon."

"There are too few eighteen dead soldiers." Xiang Zhuang shook his head and suddenly looked back at Jing Qian. Pang Yu said, "In this way, you will lead five hundred light soldiers to attack the city immediately, bypass Hulao Pass from the waterway, and go to Ao Cang to pick him up! Remember, your mission is to pick up Wushe. Don't fight with the Liang army and the Han army unless you have no choice."

"No!" Jing Qian, Pang Yu agreed with the promise and took the order.

Watching Jing Qian and Pang Yu and the others left, Wei Liao advised Xiang Zhuang: "General, don't worry too much. Mr. Wu She is very eloquent, and now he has probably succeeded. Otherwise, how could Lu Ze transfer troops from Luoyang to Hulao Pass? As for the success, with Mr. Wu She's ability, it is not difficult to find an opportunity to escape."

Xiang Zhuang nodded and sighed: "I hope so."

Speaking of Jing Qian and Pang Yu, he led 500 light troops out of Luoyang to advance east along the road. By the evening, he had marched east for more than 100 miles, less than ten miles from Hulao Pass.

Pang Yu advised Jing Qian: "General, you can't go forward any more."

Going further, you will enter the warning area of ​​Hulao Pass. Hulao Pass has heavy troops stationed, and there is also a beacon viewing platform on the remnants of Songshan Mountain in the Jiling Pass. If the Chu army goes further, it will be discovered.

Jing Qian nodded and immediately left the road with five hundred light soldiers and turned into the river bank several miles away.

In a hidden river bay, the scouts found ten small boats prepared by Gongsun Sui. Jing Qian and Pang Yu were about to cross the river in batches. When they bypassed Hulao Pass from the waterway, a small boat suddenly appeared on the river surface ahead.

Jing Qian waved his hand, and five hundred light soldiers drew out their long swords and quickly hid in the weeds.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the boat had already landed, and six ragged hungry people jumped off the boat. Jing Qian, who was hiding in the dark, recognized the hungry people in front of him. It was Wu She's accompanying Dead Soldier Dunzi. He immediately put his sword back into the sheath, and greeted him from the dark, shouting: "Dunzi, have you ever brought back the sir?"

"I've seen General Jing." Dunzi quickly bowed and said, "Sir, there is news."

After saying this, Dunzi said again: "Mr. I have also escaped from Liang Camp. Halfway through the way, I met Chen Xi, the general of the Wei Dynasty who broke through Ao Cang. Now, the gentleman has persuaded Chen Xi to lead his army to join the general. Chen Xi is attacking Hulao Pass, and Mr. I am also in Chen Xi's army. He ordered the villain to hurry back and report the news to the general."

Jing Qian said, "General is in Luoyang, you can go quickly."

Dunzi bowed to Jing Qian and hurried away with five dead soldiers.

When Jing Qianzhengyu ordered to cross the river, Pang Yu suddenly pulled his sleeve and whispered: "General, now Chen Xi's army is attacking Hulao Pass, the defenders' attention must be focused on Hulao East Pass. It is better to take advantage of the darkness to quietly go to Xiguan and then launch a sudden attack. The defenders are caught off guard and may be successfully attacked by us!"

Jing Qian frowned and said, "But the general gave us the military orders that are not allowed to fight with the Han army easily?"

Pang Yu said anxiously: "Sun Tzu said: If you are outside, you will not accept any orders. If you lead the troops outside, you should adapt to the situation!"

Jing Qian was still a little hesitant, although he knew that the possibility of success was very great when he went to stab the Hulao Pass now, but the problem was that the general was very strict in the military administration, and the consequences of disobeying the order were very serious. If the sneak attack on Hulao Pass succeeded, everything would be fine. If the sneak attack failed, then he was afraid that Jing Qian's head would not be able to be saved.

Pang Yu said more and more anxiously: "Please give orders to the general, and all consequences will be borne by the last general!"

"Bird!" Jing Qian waved his hand and said coldly, "I am the real lieutenant of the camp. How could you, a right lieutenant, take responsibility?" After saying this, Jing Qian turned around and looked at the Simas behind him, Junhou, shouting, "I'll listen to it, take your people and I'll stab the ass of the Hulaoguan Guards!"

"No!" Several Sima and the military maids agreed with the promise and turned around one after another.

In less than a moment, five hundred light soldiers left the river bank and turned back onto the road again. With the cover of the night, they quietly marched towards Hulao Pass ten miles away.

Outside Hulao Pass, Chen Xi's army has begun to launch an attack.

In the afternoon, Chen Xi's army had already driven outside Hulao Pass, but there was no ladder, so he did not attack the city immediately. Instead, he cut down and nailed the simple ladder before he began to attack the city.

Chen Xi was also quite strategic. He divided his 30,000 people into the front, middle and back three armies, and the front army were all middle-aged and sick and disabled men over forty years old. They were led by Hou Chang, and the rear army was young people under the age of twenty, led by Zhang Chun, and the central army was middle-aged and between twenty and forty years old, led by Chen Xi himself.

The first person Chen Xi sent to the battlefield was Hou Chang's front army.
