Chapter 208 Gale! Gale!
"Your Majesty: Your Excellency, Wang Yan, the general of Hangu Pass, counted from the day when the allied armies of the world approached Hangu Pass and attacked Qin, the last general has led 100,000 soldiers of Hangu Pass to stand for nearly ten days!"
"In the past ten days, the enemy's offensive has been strong, day and night, and our army has stood firm by relying on the natural danger of Hangu, and has wiped out at least more than 250,000 enemies in a bloody battle, but our army has also suffered heavy casualties.
"According to the statistics of the end of the war, the number of casualties of our Daqin Hanguguan guards has exceeded 70,000. The city wall is damaged, 80% of the crossbow and arrows are used, and the strong bow and strength are more than half.
"But the coalition's offensive continues, and the reinforcements can't wait for a long time. Now our army has reached a dead end!"
"And as the saying goes, there will be a certain death, and a scholar has no intention of stealing his life!"
"If I can use the flesh and blood of my ministers to strengthen our Qin people's thoughts of bloody battles, the ministers will die without regrets!"
"Therefore, the minister Wang Yan, wants to lead all the combatable soldiers of my Hanguguan Qin army to launch a decisive charge against the enemy army at dawn, and fight bloody battle with the allied army to the end."
"This minister knows very well that this minister's actions are responsible for the great trust of the superior and the training of my Daqin, and the crime is serious, please don't blame it on the king!"
"Wang Yan and Hangu Pass, the 100,000 soldiers are absolutely brilliant!"
Wang Yan sat quietly on the Hanguguan City Tower and read, while Gan Mao recorded everything on the bamboo slips verbatim.
"Gan Mao, how many soldiers are there in our army?"
Wang Yan said.
"Reporting to the general, after ten days of perseverance, our army has suffered more than 70,000 casualties, of which more than 10,000 were lightly and seriously wounded, and about 16,000 soldiers could be fought!"
Hearing that the 100,000 heroic and arrogant iron-blooded lions at Hangu Pass were now less than 30,000 wounded soldiers, Wang Qian and many of the Qin army generals were silent.
"In this Central Plains battle, the casualties are too heavy!"
For a long time, Wang Yan, who was covered in blood, sighed.
"General, let's fight!"
"That's right, General, fighting with the coalition forces, killing one is enough, and killing two will make a profit, isn't it?"
"I will swear to follow the general to the death, order it, general!"
"General, order!"
At this moment, many generals of the Qin army all had high fighting spirit, and asked for a bloody fight to the end.
And Wang Yan finally couldn't bear it anymore, and he decided to agree with a wave of his hand.
"Okay, everyone, then order the soldiers and horses, and gather all the soldiers of our Qin army that can fight,"
"Finally, let the soldiers have a full meal. All the remaining food and grass will be burned, and all the catapults and redundant crossbows will be destroyed. Tomorrow dawn will fight the coalition to the death."
"If you have to make sacrifices to save the country, then please wait for yourself to start!"
After listening to the main general's words, many Qin army generals shouted loudly, revealing their firmness.
"If you are accompanied by your brothers on the Huangquan Road, what regrets would Wang Yan die?"
Wang Yan bowed his hands to all the generals of the Qin army and said.
"Gan Mao, this general ordered you to select 2,000 soldiers from all the soldiers who could fight to protect our Qin army's wounded soldiers and withdraw them to the country."
"You must remember that after you have left the eastern county of Daqin, you must not evacuate to Guanzhong again."
"Because once Hangu Pass is lost, the fire of war will burn through the entire pass, killing the people in the pass, and the retreating troops of our Qin army will also be overtaken by the coalition forces."
"Tell them to evacuate to Bashu or the northwest grassland as soon as you leave the nearby counties and counties, and never evacuate to Guanzhong!"
"Because once Guanzhong falls, the land of Bashu and the northwest grassland will become the foundation for the rise of our Daqin."
"Also, these retreating troops can be regarded as the last fire of my Hangu Qin army!"
In the end, not only Wang Yan, but also many generals of the Qin army also sighed.
...
After a few hours, the sun slowly rose from the end of the horizon, and the dawn sprinkled from the sky, shining on everyone's face, and a soft halo appeared on everyone's face, with a vigor and vitality. breath.
"Chunshen-kun, Xinling-kun, don't you want to lead the army to fight?"
"Now I will give you this opportunity. Now that the Qin army at Hangu Pass is at the end of its streak, I will give you an army of 100,000 people. Can you go down in one battle?"
Among the coalition forces, looking at the tall and majestic Hangu Pass at the end of the line of sight, Tian Ji said to Wei Wuji and Huang Xie beside him.
"The end will be willing to go!"
Huang Xie and Wei Wuji were a little overjoyed when they took over the command.
Although both of them are high-ranking nobles in their own country, they have a prominent family background and huge power, and they are even famous among the world.
Although it can be called a dragon and a phoenix among people, after all, he is still young and has not experienced much ups and downs.
Not to mention the matter of personally leading the army into battle, Tian Wen may be the only one who has done it among the four young masters, and not long ago.
"what is this?"
"This is Wu Chengjun's recognition of the two of them!"
It seems that there are not many among the younger generation of scholars and generals in the world to be recognized by Wu Chengjun!
Huang Xie and Wei Wuji thought of it with joy, but the joy was not visible.
And the fact is exactly as the two thought, Tian Ji really recognized these two heroes from the bottom of his heart, otherwise he would not let the two lead the army to fight.
"attack!"
After taking over the 100,000 troops, Huang Xie and Wei Wuji also issued the order to attack, and the 100,000 army suddenly moved slowly towards Hangu Pass.
However, due to the terrain of Hangu Pass, the 100,000-strong army was divided into two parts when it advanced to a certain area.
A part of the 60,000-strong army continued to advance towards Hangu Pass, while the other part was led by Wei Wuji and Huang Xie, and the 40,000-strong coalition army was sitting in the rear, ready to reinforce the battlefield at any time, fighting for a battle to go down to Hangu Pass.
"Roar, roar, roar..."
Countless coalition soldiers pressed down on Hangu Pass again, with a kind of destructive momentum, like a broken bamboo.
However, with the advance of the coalition forces, some people found that it was abnormal.
Because the army had already entered the range of the Qin army's bow and crossbow, but there was no Qin army bowman to shoot arrows to kill their own army, and there was not a shadow of the Qin army on the city wall.
Did the Qin army retreat?
As soon as this idea came up, it was snuffed out by everyone without exception.
To say that any country in the world may retreat if it fails to win a war, but only the Qin country and the Qin army alone cannot retreat when they are at a disadvantage.
They'd rather die than take a step back, something they've learned from previous wars.
"wind!"
...
"wind!"
...
"Gale!"
...
"Gale!"
...
At this moment, the sudden change occurred!
I saw the sound of the uniform roar of the Qin army suddenly coming from the Hangu Pass, with unparalleled power.
It seems that behind the Hangu Pass, there are thousands of troops capable of destroying everything!
Hearing the voices coming from Hangu Pass, countless veterans and generals with rich combat experience, and even Huang Xie and Wei Wuji, two arrogant heroes, instantly changed their color.
Without him, there is only one reason
Wind, gale - this is the sound of the Qin army's attack, and it represents the sound of the Qin army's destructive battle!
