sweeping the world

Chapter 377
It was mainly a matter of psychological pressure. The Fu family paid a sufficient price to re-enter Guanzhong. For this reason, no less than [-] to [-] people were killed.

There are [-] to [-] people killed in battle alone, and there must be more disabled and minor injuries, not to mention the killings caused by Ran Min after entering Guanzhong.

To say that Shi Hu's goal of weakening the strength of the Di tribe has definitely been achieved, Fu Hong hated Ran Min who had entered Guanzhong, and also had a monstrous resentment towards Shi Hu. .

Of course, the Fu clan entered Guanzhong for the great cause of the Di people. Guanzhong has been run by them for decades. Most of the ethnic groups live in Guanzhong, and the other main habitats are Longxi and Northwest.

After Ran Min entered Guanzhong, he slaughtered wantonly. The Hu people in Guanzhong didn't have their feet rooted in the ground. They had legs to run away, and the place where they fled was to the Longxi Plain.

"Falling short for the sake of the mountain!" Fu Hong was definitely not reconciled, but he gave up when he knew it was time to give up. After careful thinking, he said: "The rebel army supported by the Han army must have greatly boosted their morale. Fight on." Even if we can win, we... will definitely have a hard time going on, if the Han army can come to 15, they can come to [-]."

The general trend of the world is there. The most popular recently is the newly founded Han country. They established the country after defeating Yao Yizhong with 10 people. The people in Han are in a period of excitement, and the Han army is precisely the spirit The moment of greatest morale.

If you didn't see Shi Hu, you could only choose to confront him temporarily across the Yellow River. Didn't you rush to cross the river and fight the Han army?The Di people have been seriously injured recently. Don't pretend to be heroes when you should escape. Furthermore, based on Fu Hong's research on Ran Min, it is impossible for the Han army to stay in Guanzhong for long.

"Ran Min is a person with an extremely cold nature. He will be very happy now that the Han army came to help him, but once the Han army intends to stay for a long time, he will definitely feel resentful, and it is not ruled out that he will confront him by force." Fu Hong can set up a situation, that is Based on the judgment of Ran Min's character, the facts proved that he had a good grasp of Ran Min's character. At the end, he sneered: "Li Nong has helped Ran Min so much, but he didn't show anything."

Fu Hong doesn't know. If history hadn't been changed by Liu Yan, Ran Min raised his butcher's knife to Li Nong, who he didn't know how much he had helped. After killing Li Nong, he didn't even spare his family. If you don't stay, what kind of hatred and resentment should you have?

"Let's leave it like this for now." Fu Hong said with a sad face: "Retreat to Longxi, where there are a large number of our ethnic groups, and most of them are in the plains. It is expected that they will not catch up."

As for Marquis Fu, Fu Hong would send people to look for Li Nong, and he would always ask Li Nong to help him fish it out, but other people didn't care so much.

There must be a step in how to retreat, and it is impossible to sacrifice nothing. There must be a plan for any steps and sacrifices.

Fu Hong's orders were issued one after another. Fu Jian and Fu Xiong who were located at Lantian Pass received the order to retreat. The former was unbelievably furious, while the latter was a kind of gratification.

"Are we so afraid of the Han army!?" Fu Jian is a brave person, and usually such a person has a bad personality. He roared: "I'm not afraid of them, not at all!"

Fu Xiong waited for Fu Jian to roar enough before saying, "It's not a question of whether you're afraid or not."

"Don't be afraid to continue like this!" Fu Jian's eyes were bloodshot, looking like a wild animal: "We shrank as soon as they came, and we don't know how we will be ridiculed if we spread the word."

"Brother..." Fu Xiong smiled strangely, and said, "If being ridiculed can make Ran Min the only husband in the world, and Liu Yan will encounter a series of troubles in the future, so what if he is laughed at."

Fu Jian said that his IQ was not online, and asked urgently.

"Throughout the long river of history, there is no unreasonable support between countries. Once people have absolute power, they will not give up easily." Fu Xiong looked in the direction of Tongguan, and then looked at the Han who came outside the city but did not launch an offensive. Jun, said: "Ran Min's request for reinforcements is nothing more than the price of being a minister. When the situation is critical, Ran Min will definitely accept his fate. Once the crisis is resolved...that's not the case."

At this moment, Xie An and Yuan Qiao were looking at Lantian Pass.

Compared with the dangerous mountains and rivers of Gaoguan, Lantianguan actually just chose ordinary mountains to build. Compared with it, the road here is definitely much easier to walk.

Above Lantian Pass, the flags were fluttering and people were surging. It could be seen that the defenders must be busy preparing the defense equipment, and it also showed the anxiety in the defenders' hearts.

"Actually, this can only be regarded as a barrier of last resort." Yuan Qiao actually never thought that he would be able to come to Guanzhong in his lifetime, and he never thought of leading an army to threaten Lantian Pass.He must have had mixed emotions thinking about coming to Xie An, and he couldn't help but say: "Senior, I don't know how many people have been thinking about coming day and night. The furthest they have reached is Sanchuan and it is difficult to make any further progress. But we did it."

In the pre-Qin period, Lantianguan was first used by Qin people to guard against Wei State, then it became a defense against Chu State, and then it became a place for training troops.What is certain is that the terrain in places where troops can be trained is complex and not too complicated. What the army pays attention to is the formation of troops, not the training of individual combat skills.

Later, Lantian Pass was actually abandoned. For more than 400 years, not only was it not repaired, but it was removed. After all, the internal pressure was not great whether it was the Western Han Dynasty or the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Lantian Pass was built again during Liu Yao's period, but because there is still a Yiguan in front, Lantian Pass can only be regarded as a precautionary measure. It is really majestic, or Fu Hong sent people to attack in a roundabout way, even if it is Ran's Qin army guarding the pass was lax.It won't be taken so easily.

"Uncle Yan, don't have any inexplicable mentality." Xie An said that they have become a member of the Han Kingdom, so there is no need to be so sentimental, and said with a smile: "It is here, and An is naturally happy. But... I really can't figure out what the king's intention is."

"Joe doesn't quite understand either." Yuan Qiao said with a bitter face, "The Han is powerful, but can it withstand such repeated consumption?"

They have no intention of attacking Lantian Pass at all, and they don't even have much desire to rescue Chang'an. It's not simply because they don't want to lose troops, nor is it because they speculate that Fu Hong will lead people to withdraw to Longxi. That's it.

Liu Yi came here after arranging things at Yaoguan Pass. Seeing Xie An and Yuan Qiao observing Lantian Pass, he said politely after a while: "My department can be the pioneer, and your department is welcome to follow."

Ran Min only had [-] people for Liu Yi, and Liu Yi left [-] at Yao Pass, and of course only less than [-] were brought to Lantian Pass.

Xie An was not polite at all, and said directly: "Our army has come all the way from thousands of miles away. We need to rest and recuperate after attacking Gao Pass first and marching for tens of miles."

Liu Yi was immediately embarrassed. He should be very eager to be a Han soldier, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

The Han army rested for five consecutive days. During this period, they had no interest in pretending to attack. However, Liu Yi, who couldn't hold himself back, let his own troops attack, but his head was badly bruised and bloody.

On the other side of Tongguan, Ran Min first met with Li Nong, who came in person, and others had no way of knowing what they talked about.

When Li Nong left, he took Fu Hou and other nearly 500 people. After they left, the besieged Shijie Zhao army surrendered the next day.

Ran Min straddled Zhu Longma and wandered around the ruins of the battlefield. All he saw were pieces of scorched earth and more remains of the war dead that he hadn't had time to clean up.

The war outside Tongguan has spread widely, and there are traces of battles all over the mountains and plains near Tongguan. After the Shijie Zhao army on the Forbidden Valley surrendered, the Qin army of the Ran family publicized it. Show up and surrender, the number exceeds everyone's expectations.

Ran Min stopped his horse, looked up at the blue sky and white clouds, and then closed his eyes.

Jiang Gan next to him has been hesitant to speak. He still hasn't figured out why Ran Min let Fu Hou go. If he said it was simply to return Li Nong's favor, even if Ran Min believed him, he would not believe it.But there are some things that cannot be asked, especially when he knows that Ran Min is in a wandering state of mind at this moment.

"Get ready, remove the national title, and change the banner." Ran Min's voice was extremely hoarse: "In addition... Xie (An) at Lantian Pass... Xie Zhonglang is still on hiatus?"

Jiang Gan was extremely surprised and said in panic, "Your Majesty hasn't discussed with all the ministers yet..."

"Naturally, the widow should keep his promise. If he says he will be a minister, he will definitely be a minister!" Ran Min asked Xie An again what he was doing with a troubled expression, and then said: "The country of the widow has not been like a country for a long time. It is barely supported, it is better to lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade."

Jiang Gan understands that it doesn't matter what the country's name is, but the prince is indispensable, and independence is also necessary.He nodded and persuaded: "The thing is like this, but... but the king is desperate not to tell the king of Han immediately... no, it is..." He didn't know how to address Liu Yan, so he said vaguely: "Don't ask for military equipment immediately. If necessary, you have to go to Linzi in person."

"These widows understand." Ran Min gritted his teeth a little bit, and said with hatred: "It's just that the widows are not strong enough."

To say that Ran Min is still very unwilling, but reality is better than people.

They have had such a hard time this time, and they are so weak after the great battle. So what can they do if they don’t do that, not to mention the next wave of Shijie Zhao Jun, but only the Chenghan Li who is about to move, and Zhang who has not responded. Shi Liangguo, and then there is the Han army that is located at Lantian Pass without any movement. If there is any accident, Daqin is really only one foot away from extinction.

What Jiang Gan could say, he could only say with a smile: "Your Majesty shares the same ambition with that one, and he is not a stingy person." Afterwards, there is really only "hehe", and it is not good to say anything. .
