I’m The King
Chapter 1418: : Hanqi Tianxia (108) Iron Wall (Part 1)
The lead troops of the Chu army arrived at Danfeng County, which was only a dozen miles away from Wuguan. When Wuguan was lost, part of the remnants of Zhang Qian’s army fled here, and the Han army didn’t know why. No troops were sent to attack this county, which did not have much defensive capabilities.
Qu Wan also arrived here at the first moment, and with the arrival of the Chu army, the scouts of the Han army also appeared around Danfeng County. The most unscrupulous guy actually appeared in Danfeng City. Under the head.
The situation was too bad to be aggravated, and he was already very careful after the war. He almost racked his brains during the retreat. However, he still lost nearly 20,000 infantry and tens of thousands of cavalry during the retreat. It was caused by the cavalry of the Han army who had been swimming on both sides of the Chu army.
The morale of the Chu army was very high. The idea of returning to the motherland to fight against the rioters made the soldiers stay home while still maintaining a high morale. However, the successive losses caused the morale of the soldiers to be hit hard. The road to homecoming does not seem so easy.
Of course, it’s very difficult to go. Qu has already learned the latest information about the Han Army in Wuguan. The troops of the First Army of the Han Army Youth Guard Corps still rushed to reach Wuguan before him. Now the guard force of the Han Army in Wuguan has reached. At 20,000 people, 20,000 people are already the limit for a Guancheng like Wuguan, and the most guards that can be accommodated. This was extremely bad news for Chu Jun. Qu Wan knew very well that even though he had an army that was twice as large as the opponent, under the terrain like Wuguan, the advantage of a large number of people would not be able to play out at all. What's more, I was facing the first army of the young guards, the most elite of the Han army, and this army could be described as a famous army.
The reputation of the army is played out, not blown out. Under the prestige, there will be absolutely no imaginary soldiers. Facing such an opponent guarding Wuguan, Qu Wan had no confidence in his heart.
Teams of scouts have been sent out. Now he needs to understand the defensive posture of the entire Wuguan. He can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. The more anxious he is, he must be more careful in his actions.
As more and more intelligence gathered to his desk. The enemy defense system above the sand table in front of him gradually formed in front of him, but his heart became heavier.
This is a defense system he has never seen before. It is totally inconsistent with the experience he has accumulated over decades of military service. Obviously. This defensive position is designed according to the play style of the Han army. The most important part of it is definitely the kind of artillery that can cause huge damage at long distances.
"General, the Han army built the entire defensive system with Wuguan and Shaoxishan as fulcrums. The front line defensive position is several miles away from Wuguan, and the forward position is prominent. We have no idea what to do behind the forward position. I know, but one thing is certain is that if we want to win Wuguan, we must first win Shao Xishan. According to the remnants of Zhang Qian’s soldiers, the reason why Wuguan fell is because of the Han Dynasty. The army first captured Shaoxi Mountain. Then they set up artillery on the mountain and bombarded the city. The first thing to destroy was the long-range weapons in the city. Then they bombarded the defenders at the head of the city, making it impossible to organize effective Defense. Therefore, the focus of our first offense is to take down Shao Xi Shan. As long as we can take down Shao Xi Shan, we can emulate the opponent’s previous success. Although we don’t have artillery. Large catapults can also be used. Throw the bag into the city. It can still cause huge damage." The forward general Wang Shubo pointed to the sand table in front, said.
"The Han army relied on this trick to win Wuguan. They must know that the focus of our attack is also Shao Xishan. Now they must be the most rigorous defense. Everyone knows this. So few Xishan's battles will It will be a **** battle." Qu Wan sighed.
"This is nothing we can do." Wang Shubo said: "General, our ministry is willing to be the vanguard. Even if we shed all our blood, we must take down Shao Xishan. Otherwise, we won't be able to win Wuguan at all. The sooner the attack is launched, the better, do you know that I have been on the front line in the past two days, but I have seen everything I can’t believe my eyes."
"What did you see?" Qu Wan was taken aback.
"The Han army is still building defense lines. They built densely packed fortresses. The speed of construction is shocking. They used wooden boards to make molds, poured something into them, and inserted iron rods. I didn't care too much, but on the third day, when I went again, they had already removed the wooden planks outside, and what I saw was a gray fortress, and they had even begun to install the **** machine crossbow on it. Just a few days With their efforts, they have more than a dozen such fortresses on the front line."
Qu Wan said in a low voice, "I know this thing. In Han, the buildings built with this technology are all reinforced concrete structures. The construction speed is extremely fast, and they are strong and durable. In fact, we have mastered this technology now. This kind of reinforced concrete structure is hard to be destroyed."
Wang Shubo was silent for a moment: "General, we must launch the attack as fast as possible. With every delay, the enemy's defense will be stronger. The domestic situation is treacherous and we urgently need to return to China, and our logistics cannot support us. Fighting with the enemy for a long time here."
"Wuguan was seized, and a large amount of our food, grass, and weapons fell into the enemy's hands. Fortunately, some of them were sent out from Wuguan, plus the ones we brought from Sanchuan County can support the army's use for about half a month." Qu finished.
"In other words, in half a month, we must win Wuguan." Wang Shubo took a deep breath: "General, I ask for an immediate attack on the enemy, without waiting for Bai Xizhong and Huang Zhong."
"Huang Zhong suffered a serious loss, and because of this incident, he and Bai Xizhong had a very unhappy relationship. For the time being, we can't count on them." Qu Wan sighed.
"It is no wonder that Bai Xizhong, speaking of it, is that Huang Zhong was negligent. The Xiongnu cavalry division must have crossed the gap of his defense zone and rushed to the center of Baixi first. The attack on the center of Baixi attracted two other cavalry to rescue. After that, he detoured to the rear of Huang Zhong, but how did this Han cavalry do this?" Wang Shubo sighed. "This, not only Huang Zhong can't understand it, but I also think it's incredible!"
"The cavalry of the Han army is the toughest. Ten years ago, Yan Guo fought against Donghu, and Gaoyuan was trapped. He Lanxiong stayed up for days and nights. After defeating a horse of Donghu, he quickly returned to his division and rushed to the camp. , And Gao Yuan fought both inside and outside, breaking the Donghu people, which made Gao Yuan escape from Jingyuan into the prairie, and then returned to Jishi City. If it weren't for this battle, Gao Yuan would have been destroyed by the Donghu people." Qu Wan sighed slightly: " No one can be more powerful than the Han cavalry for long-distance attacks. Now, the Donghu Cavalry Division and the Xiongnu Cavalry Division, the cavalry are all one man, two horses or even three horses. They can do it by changing horses and not changing people. It was my negligence to intersect a wide range in the shortest time. For many years, the Han army has never demonstrated this ability again, and almost everyone has forgotten it. When the two of them arrive in Dan After the phoenix, let me mediate for them. The enemy is now, if we can’t work together, wouldn’t it be the first defeat before the battle.”
Wang Shubo nodded slightly. In this situation, the general can only take the responsibility first, and Qu Wan came forward to take the responsibility, and Bai Xizhong and Huang Zhong would not accuse each other and make the military unstable.
"General, Wuguan Deputy General Fan Kui begs to see you." An officer strode in from outside.
"Fan Kui, is he still alive?" Qu finished suddenly standing up.
"He, he was escorted by a group of Han troops." The officer hesitated and said.
Being escorted by the Han army meant that Fan Kui had been captured by the Han army. Wang Shubo's face was angered, and the army's heart was depressed right now. The Han army escorted Fan Kui to this place in such a swaggering manner. It was another blow.
"This coward." Wang Shubo said angrily: "What do you keep him for? Kill him cleanly!"
He shook his head when he finished. Fan Kui didn’t have much, but the forces behind this person, even he, were somewhat jealous: “It doesn’t matter whether he kills or not. It doesn’t matter if he comes back, we happen to be from He knew something about Wuguan from his mouth."
Fan Kui stumbled into the room. Yang Dasha wrote a letter for him to send over. He was extremely reluctant to come over. He killed Zhang Gan and surrendered. If he let Qu know about it, then he can live. No, you know, among the Chu army, if anyone dared to kill him, Qu Wan would definitely be one of them. If people don't know ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ unless they do nothing, it is not a secret to murder and surrender yourself in Wuguan. If it reaches the ears of the end of the war, it will be over.
"General!" After seeing Qu, Fan Kui knelt down as he weakened his legs. "The last general, the last guilty."
Qu Wan took a deep breath and suppressed the disgust in his heart: "General Fan, please, the failure of Wuguan is that the Han army was too cunning. You can resist it for so long, which is beyond my expectation. It’s good to be able to come back alive. It’s hard work. Come, let General Fan take a seat."
"Thank you, General!" Fan Kui felt confident after listening to Qu's warm words.
"You come back from Wuguan, should you have a general understanding of the current situation in Wuguan?" Qu Wan asked.
"Yes, understand, understand." Fan Kui nodded repeatedly, more than understanding, he himself took the surrendered Chu army and participated in the construction of the fortifications, and the Han army didn't seem to avoid him at all. They were not allowed to leave until the final deployment of military defenses. (To be continued.)
