sweeping the world

Chapter 372 This is the "pill"
Earlier, Hangu Pass was the barrier in Guanzhong. After the First Emperor unified the world, he ordered the demolition of all city walls in the world, and collected the weapons of the non-Qin army in the world. He also ordered the demolition of all the passes except for the border areas.

The early Hangu Pass was located on the edge of the Yellow River near Menshui, and beyond was the so-called Sanchuan Land.

Later, Hangu Pass was changed once again. It was still built on the edge of the Yellow River, but it was moved to the south of Yanchi and the west of Mianchi. Apart from this Hangu Pass in Guanzhong, it was Gaoguan as a barrier. Liu Bang entered the pass. After the pass, it was actually near the Gaoguan. The difference is that the Gaoguan at that time was still abandoned because of the order of the first emperor, and Wuguan was built during the period of Qin II Hu Hai.

Gao means high, so Gaoguan is a pass built on a high mountain. When you push forward hundreds of years, there are Han flags flying here. It is Liu Bang's suspicion for the reason, which makes Qin Ziying think that there is overwhelming When the soldiers came, Yu Xianyang was really able to watch the Yao Pass, and it turned out that Prince Qin's baby at that time was really fooled.Faced with Liu Bang's persuasion to surrender, Ziying hesitated for a moment and brought all the officials out of Xianyang City to beg for surrender.

Fu Hong also needed to establish a suspicion formation, but he was not doing it for another pass. After all, Lantian Pass was won earlier than Aoguan Pass. What he needed was to build up momentum. Whether it was for Guanzhong or Tongguan, he needed to make a big splash.

In just five short days, Fu Hong had obtained two passes. Apart from his joy, Fu Hong was also extremely pained.

In fact, there was not much loss at Lantian Pass. During the trek in the Qinling Mountains, there were more people than those who attacked Lantian Pass. At the beginning, more than 2 Di and Qiang people took a detour, and only less than [-] actually reached Lantian Pass.

The attack on Yaoguan was a fierce attack from the beginning. Nearly 2 people were lost before the heavy siege equipment arrived. A rough calculation of the total loss after capturing the pass was close to 3 people.These 3 people really died, but they did not lose their combat effectiveness temporarily.

Fu Hong's heart hurts more than that. Tongguan lost more manpower in order to achieve the goal of capturing Yaoguan and Lantianguan. Even Fuhou's headquarters is still stuck there, but he doesn't know if he can hold on until he captures Chang'an and then start from there. March behind Tongguan.

"We only have less than [-] elites left, and we can gather up to [-] for the next attack." Fu An has a lot of bandages on his body. He has been fighting in person in order to be able to attack Yaoguan as soon as possible. It is inevitable.But it has to be said that the tenacity of the first generation of fighters is really not comparable to that of the later generations of fighters. Although the body was seriously injured, they gritted their teeth and persisted.He touched the bandage on his body and said with a smile: "I have to say that the method learned by the Han army is very useful, at least it is comfortable to look at and touch."

Fu Hong forced a smile, and asked with concern: "Is the injury all right?"

Fu An waved his hand, pretending to be innocent, and said, "In exchange for the life of the captain of the rebel army and the two passes, An earned it anyway."

The relationship between the two brothers has always been very good, but it is not like the brothers in some families who looked harmonious but actually had serious internal strife, and said some personal words, so Fu Hong led the army to go out again according to the plan, leaving the injured Fu An to arrange for Lantian Guan He Guan's arming matters.

"Give this autographed letter to Li Nong." Fu An looked a little drowsy. After he finished his order, he said, "Give Lantian Pass to Fu Jian, and Gao Pass to Fu Xiong."

Fu Jian is the third son of Fu Hong, and he is 27 years old this year.

Fu Xiong is the fifth son of Fu Hong, and he is 25 years old this year.

To say that a family should be prosperous, it really means that there are usually many heroes in one family, and each of them is wise and capable. Even if several people in Fu Hong's generation do not have much ability, at least they appear to be tough in temperament. The next generation will Either he is extremely brave or he is a man of great strategy.

Fu Jian was originally unhappy, but because Fu Hong didn't take him into the pass, he knew that he was going to guard Lantian Pass, and Fu An's letter emphasized his bravery. It should be time to take responsibility, so he naturally became very happy Happy.

When Fu Xiong saw Fu An's letter, he immediately looked sad and said to his close friend, "I'm afraid my uncle is going to die."

On the second day after Fu Hong led his army into Bashang, Fu An died of serious injuries at Yaoguan.

The news of Fu An's death was according to his own wishes. He did not express his condolences and did not inform Fu Hong. The body was placed in the room, and everything would be done after the end of the war.

The Shijie Zhao army led by Fu Hong entered Guanzhong, and it was not until Bashang that it became known to everyone.

That was when Fu Hong sent a reconnaissance cavalry to spread the news that he and his troops had returned to Guanzhong. At the same time, they also spread false news that Tongguan, Yuguan, and Lantian Pass had all fallen into their hands, including Ran Min. The rebels have been eliminated.

Ran's Qin State has not been established for a long time, and the influence of this regime in Guanzhong is only average. It can even be said that because some national policy issues are actually not liked by the people in Guanzhong, there are riots everywhere in Guanzhong.

Many powerful people who heard that Fu Hong led the army into Guanzhong, no matter what ethnicity they are, cheered and led people to Chang'an. Ran's Qin Kingdom also has a common goal.

Seriously speaking, the Fu clan was not very violent when they ruled Guanzhong, and it can even be said that their treatment of the people under their rule was generally not bad compared to the rest of the Shijie Zhao Kingdom.That was one of the reasons why the people in Guanzhong rejected the Qin Kingdom of the Ran family, not to mention that they immediately took people to defect as soon as they heard that Fu Hong had returned to Guanzhong.

Ran Min only learned the news when Fu Hong led his troops to the city of Chang'an. By this time, he had completed the siege of Fu Hou's troops on all sides, and even the friction with the begging army began to increase.

"Impossible!" Hearing the news, Ran Min subconsciously didn't want to believe it. He roared: "Although there are troops from Gao Pass, even if there are only [-] people stationed at Gao Pass, it shouldn't fall in such a short period of time. There is also Lantian Pass behind you!"

Zhan Shi Liu Yi went through many difficulties and dangers before arriving at Ran Min's place from Chang'an. Because he was in a hurry, he didn't have time to wash up and redress. He looked dirty and many of his clothes were damaged. He saw Ran Min. Min Shi didn't believe it and shouted: "Your Majesty, it's true, it's all true. Fu Hong has already arrived at the city, and there are traitors from all directions who have come to join him!"

"Impossible!" Ran Min still roared: "Where's Shen Zhong? With Shen Zhong at Yaoguan, how could he fall!"

No one knows yet that Shen Zhong has actually died in the city. Fu Hong's propaganda is that Shen Zhong begged to surrender. The purpose is of course to create a gap within the Ran family of Qin.

Of course Liu Yi would not say anything that was not confirmed at this time. He looked dumb and then repeated that Fu Hong was indeed at the gate of Chang'an. In order to convince Ran Min, he kept kowtowing until his forehead was bleeding.

Ran's Qin Guowen and Wu who were present at the scene, they would say a few words at the beginning, but they were completely silent after that, they were shocked at how quickly Yao Pass and Lantian Pass fell, and they were also full of despair about their future.

"So, Fu Hong is playing the trick of 'making a sound in the east and attacking in the west'?" Ran Min stopped roaring. He squatted on the ground, sat on the futon, stretched his arms, and said in a hoarse voice: "Then Was I treated like a monkey from the beginning, or was Li Nong and Fu Hong teaming up to play with me?"

Li Nong must be there to cry for grievances. Whether it was at the beginning or when he learned that Fu Hong had entered Guanzhong, he always wanted to preserve his friendship.The real situation is that he sent people to tell Ran Min three times in a row before that Fu Hong might not be in the Tongguan battlefield. The problem is that Ran Min didn't respond.

Without waiting for anyone to persuade him, and he didn't need anyone to persuade him, Ran Min only regained his composure after a moment of depression, and said, "Give Fu Hou a final blow, and let's go back to the pass."

The civil and military members of Ran's Qin State looked at each other with people they were familiar with, no matter what they were thinking in their hearts, they clapped their hands and said, "No!"

Ran Min waved for people to retreat, but Liu Yi stayed behind, waiting for everyone to leave, and asked, "How is the situation in Chang'an?"

"Fu Hong came in a hurry. Although people have been defecting, there is no siege equipment for the time being. It's just ants attacking the city." Liu Yi introduced the situation in Chang'an in detail, saying that there was no chaos in the city. Let Wang Jian take the lead in organizing the defense, and said: "The queen and the second son Ran Yin also came forward to stabilize people's hearts."

Ran Min has quite a few heirs, but none of them are too young to take on great responsibilities. However, Queen Dong has always been virtuous, and this has been proved again today.

Speaking of Chang'an, after Ran Min led his army to capture it, he completely expelled the people who originally lived there, and replaced them with his direct descendants. This was the reason why they were able to unite as one.

"All those who can be armed are fully armed, and all the old and weak, women and children are included, but military equipment is insufficient." When Liu Yi came, there were 13 people guarding the city of Chang'an.He said eagerly: "The most important thing now is for the king to lead his army back quickly and dispel Fu Hong's rumors."

Ran Min was thinking about other things, such as how to treat Li Nong. The most important thing was that the Han army seemed to have captured Xuchang, the capital of Yuzhou, and Xuchang was only seven hundred miles away from Tongguan?

"Ah?" Liu Yi was stunned, and he asked in a daze, "I rushed to Linzi as soon as possible, asking the king of Han to send troops to rescue him?"

For some reason, when Ran Min encountered a crisis, the first thought in his mind was to find Liu Yan, and he couldn't say why.

"I have a hunch that the King of Han will not just sit idly by." Ran Min was inexplicably confident, and said: "Even if the King of Han only expresses his position in name, it will be of great benefit to Qin."

Ran Min really guessed one thing right. Liu Yan, who had been paying attention to the war in Guanzhong, had never intended to stand by and watch. It was out of national interest and also a feeling in his heart. The difference was that the cost was not high and he could gain something. to what benefit.

In fact, if the Shijie Zhao army encircling the Qinling Mountains had not been in such a hurry and had time to explore and observe more, they would have discovered that some valleys were filled with various buildings.Of course, these buildings were built by farmers sent by Liu Yan before. Not only in Qinling Mountains, but also in many other places.
