Zhao Kuo led the army into Yiyang, Li Mu and others got the news to urge Ma to meet, the details are no longer detailed, the brothers met very cordially, the morale of the Zhao army was high, a team of cavalry entered Handan from the east of Zhao State, Zhao Kuo led the army to stay for a day and immediately turned to Yiyang.

"King, Marquis Wei sent a battle report."

The bamboo slip was handed over, Zhao Kuo opened it, and it was clearly written that Wei Wuji and Tian Dan fought with Meng Tian several times, and both sides had their own victories and defeats, and Meng Tian also did not dare to rush into the army, and the two sides had become a confrontation.

"The east is worry-free, and now it has been handed over to the heavens, so you should send troops to take the Hangu Pass directly."

"What the king said is extremely true, Hangu Pass is the gateway to Qin, and it is also the key to breaking Qin." Li Mu got up, as the head of the generals, he also spoke more than others, and the other generals nodded again and again.

"Okay, who's the vanguard?"

"The last will go."

"The last will go."

All the generals walked out together, and many of them were promoted generals in the new army, all of them were full of spirit, and they all wanted to take this opportunity to show their hands.

"Xu Hu, Zhao Long, Xue Zan, Ma Qiang."

The four of them walked out quickly, "Order the four of you to lead the troops first, and Mu Chen will send a letter to Guguan for the former army commander." ”

"Yes."

Zhao Kuo knew that the Qin army had been sitting on Hangu Pass for many years, and it was impossible to break through it in a short time, it would inevitably be another bloody battle, Yingzheng would inevitably come in person, and Lü Buwei would definitely not let go of this person this time, he was seriously injured by Lü Buwei and almost lost his life that day, Zhao Kuo swore revenge.

The footsteps were earth-shattering, the neighing of war horses resounded through the mountains and rivers, the army of Zhao was approaching Hangu Pass, the drums were beating, and the guards of Hangu Pass immediately beat the drums and gathered the generals when they got the news.

There are no less than thirty or forty generals in the big tent, and the Hangu guard will thunderstorm, nicknamed the three absolute thunder, and his temper is very good, and his subordinates have gathered a lot of good hands.

"Ladies and gentlemen, King Zhao has raised troops in a big way, and he will arrive at the pass in a few days, and I invite you to come here today to discuss a method."

"The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, but I want to see what King Zhao is capable of."

"Yes, kill as many as you want."

"Zhao Renhu wants to pass this hurdle."

There was a burst of noise among the generals, thunderstorms waved their hands, and the sound stopped instantly, "I can't be careless, the body of General Wang is still parked outside, can't you forget it?" ”

Yiyang was lost, the Qin army suffered heavy casualties, and the Zhao army also paid the price, this is the war, especially the siege war, which is also the most expensive.

"Don't worry, the general should send people back to Xianyang first, and gather troops and horses to meet the Zhao army."

Thunderstorm nodded, "That's how to do it." ”

The former army of Zhao State approached Hangu Pass, you can see a Xiongguan standing tall from a distance, the camp tents below the pass are numerous, and the camp tents are full of fortifications, just as Zhao Kuo said, the Qin State has been operating here for decades, this time it is not just a pass but the entire Qin State, this pass is not better than Changping, Changping can be lost, Hangu Pass can not.

The front army approached, and several people urged the horse to step forward to stabilize the position, and the position of the impact pass was limited, and hundreds of thousands of troops could not come in handy, Zhao Kuo also considered, the soldiers were treacherous, and the large-scale mobilization of troops was to put enough pressure on the king of Qin, of course, there was also the meaningful words of the widow Qing when he left, "If the king does not give up, Qing'er will definitely help with all his might, and on the day of tackling the problem, he will have a generous gift." ”

Da da da, the sound of horses' hooves, Hangu Pass Qin army camp flashed out a team of people and horses, close to three or four thousand people, all the same cavalry, soldiers wearing thick armor, the same on the horses, this way is very similar to the heavy armored cavalry of Zhao State, Qin is strong, year after year of conquest of their own weapons and armor to build the process is also sophisticated, light cavalry without armor is the Qin army dead riding tradition, the second is to maximize the speed advantage.

"Something is strange."

A person pointed with his hand, and finally saw clearly, the Qin army's war horses were connected to each other, and the soldiers were holding bows and crossbows, this strange way of playing was the first time to encounter, and the cavalry's own advantage was the flexibility of the war horses, so what was the intention of connecting the war horses together.

One person sneered, "The garrison of Hangu Pass is just a wine bag and a rice bag, and using soldiers like this is equivalent to cutting off your arms." ”

"Not necessarily, it's better to be careful."

"A few brothers watch the enemy's formation, and I will know when I fight."

"Be careful."

The man snorted coldly, and urged the horse out with a wave of the spear in his hand, and the cavalry carried bows and crossbows, which were originally good at Zhao Ren, using the speed of the cavalry to launch a gallop attack on the opponent, connecting the war horses to each other, and the speed was completely lost, and it was not vulnerable at all.

"Attack with all your might."

The shield array and spear array rushed out quickly, followed by the cavalry array, just a trial, the strength of the battle camp was limited, and the cavalry of the Qin army moved forward, and the speed of the war horses was exactly the same, and the entire camp moved forward together, and it must have undergone strict training on weekdays.

Whoosh, the sound of arrows breaking through the air came out, the shield in the hand of the shield battalion was raised high, and immediately the archers bent their bows and arrows again, and the speed of the shot was also amazingly similar, so that the density of arrows could be maximized, and the lethality was also maximized, and a round of arrows was fired, and the spear array suffered one after another, and the leader led the cavalry to rush in, the opponent's camp suddenly closed, the cavalry on both sides accelerated suddenly, the cavalry in the middle suddenly stopped, the formation changed instantly, and the whole cavalry of the Zhao army was surrounded in the middle.

"Kill it."

It was too late, arrows were fired from all sides, the cavalry couldn't stop it at all, the leader led the guards to rush to the front, the spears stabbed out one after another, the opponent had no weapons in his hands and could only resist hard, the spears hit, the soldiers above fell, and the war horses, and the space was completely replaced by the war horses.

"General, you can't rush out."

"Break the rope."

The spear fell, the whole person was stunned, not a rope but made of bronze, the spear hit had no effect at all, the entire space was completely sealed, there was no way to retreat, only to keep rushing and killing, and immediately the archers shot out again, and the rest of the cavalry fell to the ground one after another.

"What a powerful formation."

The eyes of everyone in the rear widened, but in an instant, thousands of men and horses died, and the cavalry quickly recovered their original formation again, not only that, but there were still several teams of cavalry in the rear at any time, and if they couldn't find a way to crack it instantly, they couldn't break through the opponent's chain cavalry formation.

"Ironclad chain horse, General Sun, this method is really good."

The man sneered, "Let's see how Zhao Kuo breaks my big array." "Hangu Pass wins a game first, the ironclad chain horse master will inevitably be proud, more than ten years of painstaking efforts to build, the war horses are connected by iron chains, the soldiers, the war horses are completely covered with heavy armor, the two teams are armed with bows and arrows, the two teams are armed with spears to attack and defend, a team is close to a thousand people, the formation can be changed randomly, and the Zhao people cannot break through at all.

"What's going on?"

Shouting and killing, Mu Chen led the guards to rush to the front, the whole person was stunned, there was a dead Zhao Jun's corpse in front of him, there was a person lying in front of the three, Mu Chen recognized, Xu Hu, brave in battle, just after being promoted, he couldn't rush out of the battle and was finally shot by a sharp arrow.

"General, the other party doesn't know how to connect the war horses together, as long as they are surrounded by people, they can't rush out, and Brother Xu finally died in battle."

"What are you doing?"

Mu Chen's eyes widened, even if Xu Hu led his troops to be surrounded, as long as the other camps quickly reinforced him, it would definitely be fine, even if it was a formation, there would be flaws after all, and he could not stand out from the inside, so he could only choose the periphery.

"The other party is too fast, and it will be too late for us to arrive."

Mu Chen snorted coldly, the loss in the first battle had the greatest impact on morale, and the most important thing was that he must not lose to the Qin people, "In this formation, Ben will personally fight." ”

"General, don't be careless, the opponent's cavalry formation is extremely powerful."

"It doesn't matter."

Mu Chen urged the horse to rush out, and there was a cavalry behind him, the distance between the two sides was close enough, so that the most able to exert the power of the cavalry, the Qin army camp, one person waved the flag in his hand, and the ironclad chain horse killed again, holding a spear and a chain of formations to take the lead in killing, the sound of horse hooves, and the cavalry immediately rushed forward to kill together, the spears lined up, Mu Chen saw it in his eyes, but the bluff, the two camps approached, and the broad-bladed sword in his hand was slashed out again and again.

The cavalry camps of the two sides are close, the cavalry rush is the most exciting, the two sides fight hard with amazing riding skills, at this time it is completely different, the broad-edged sword in Mu Chen's hand is split, and the cavalry in front of him falls off the horse, Mu Chen's expression changed slightly, and finally figured out that the opponent's war horses are connected to each other, so the space in front is equal to a complete loss, the opponent's cavalry loses the speed advantage, loses the space, and these people are also unable to play the speed advantage.

"Look at Lao Tzu breaking your broken formation."

Mu Chen burst out of the fire, the broad-bladed sword in his hand slashed down repeatedly, trying to split the iron cable connected to it, sparks splashed, the iron cable was extremely strong, the most important thing is that the left and right cavalry rushed closer, Mu Chen had to give up, the spears attacked one after another, the whole person retreated, and rushed out again with his left hand.

Da Da Da, the rear with bows and arrows in a chain formation quickly forward, almost at the same time, the cavalry on both sides turned inward, the formation changed, the purpose was very simple, wanting to trap Mu Chen and the others in the middle with the method of talent.

"Kill."

The other three saw that the other party's large array was combined, worried that the main general would lose and urged the horse to kill again and again, and the camps of all parties under Hangu Pass were repeatedly transferred, the man snorted coldly, waved the command flag in his hand, and waited for the two teams to send out a chain of formations, and the space between the two sides under Hangu Pass was limited, so that the power of the ironclad chain horse could be maximized.

The periphery is holding a bow and arrow chain array quickly, the whole large array is also connected to each other, the middle is a chain cavalry array that can be held with a spear to fight closely, and the outside is a bow shooting array that can be accurately shot, the cooperation between the two sides can be called seamless, Mu Chen killed several people in a row and could not rush out, swishing, the sound of arrows breaking through the air did not dare to be careless, waving a broad-edged sword and blocking, screaming bursts, the cavalry camp obviously suffered, and the casualties were too great to fight like this.

"Retreat."

Mu Chen gave an order, the camp went backwards, and rushed out before the other party formed an encirclement, bursts of laughter came from Hangu Pass, the Qin army won a big victory in the first battle, everyone couldn't help but be proud, and the thunderstorm pointed with his hand, "A small chain of formations has made Zhao Guo collapse, Zhao Kuo, see how you break my Hangu Pass." ”

"General, the last general is willing to lead his troops to attack the camp of the Zhao army and take the head of King Zhao."

"The last will go."

"There's no hurry." The thunderstorm waved his hand, carelessly, Wang Lingnai Qin's famous general was finally defeated by the Zhao army, and finally ended up so miserable, "It is too early to send troops at this time, and the whole army is on alert and waiting for the opportunity."

"Whoa."
