Chapter 566: Going north to Taihang Mountain, how difficult it is!

The world is used as a chessboard, and the kings, princes, generals and ministers are used as chess pieces. The game of the game changes the trend of division and integration and the fate of the world is the chess game. This is the person who plays chess.

Those who are qualified to sit by the chessboard are already the most peak figure in the world... This peak not only refers to the status of the world, but also requires unparalleled wisdom and the mind of the world. Only in this way can we look through the fog of reality and see the trend of the world clearly; we can not care about the gains and losses in front of us and plan our future layout.

There are only a few people in the world who can make a move!

Even Qin Lei, who was allowed to be domineering in his country and was unmatched, was not qualified to play this game. It was an unpredictable fate that pushed him to the forefront of the life and death of the Qin Dynasty; it was a brave and fearless will that allowed him to still bear the fate of the rise and fall of the empire.

While carrying that heavy obligation, he also quietly had the power to play against the world!

The times create heroes, but to achieve great things, pure heroes are not enough.

The sage outside and the king inside are supplemented by power techniques, which is the countermeasure that Le Buyi gave to Qin Lei.

Even if the medicine is bitter and goes against one's true intention, if you want to play this game of chess well, you must do this...

Not only did he appreciate Gao Jue's tea ceremony and recovered 50,000 taels of silver, Prince Rong was naturally overjoyed. He also looked at Qin Lei and said 'brother' one by one: "If you have anything, just give me instructions. As long as you can do it, the Lone King will never be vague."

Seeing him as he was so good, Qin Lei also smiled happily and said, "I really want to trouble Your Highness." As he said that, he poured a circle of tea and reached out and said, "Of course there is no danger, no difficulty, at most he will be a little hard work."

Prince Rong twisted a cup of tea, put it beside his mouth and sipped it gently, his eyes wandering between Qin Lei and the coffee table, saying, "Do you want the Lone King to escort your army out?"

"Yes," Qin Lei laughed and said, "Although the two countries have restored peace, your country's military and civilians will inevitably be somewhat hostile to our army, and they will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble along the way, which will hinder this rare diplomatic relations."

"This requirement is reasonable." Prince Rong pondered softly, "How about taking this trip in what name can we not damage the court's dignity... and the face of the lonely king?"

"This is simple," Qin Lei nodded slightly and said, "Why are so many Qin troops passing through the territory, shouldn't they send an observation team to supervise it?" Focusing on profit rather than face, this is where Qin Lei is different from the world.

"This..." Unexpectedly, Qin Lei arranged such a glamorous step for himself. Prince Rong's expression suddenly relaxed and nodded slowly, "It is also the right meaning in the question." Then he agreed to Qin Lei's request. For a noble figure like His Highness, face is more important than anything else.

"There are also those princes and nobles who paid the money," Qin Lei said with a smile: "You can come. As long as you arrive at the border, you will return all the money." As he said that, he raised his glass slightly to Prince Rong and said: "The two countries should be kind, so that we can have a good life."

"Yes, who is willing to fight?" Prince Rong expressed his deep agreement, drank the big red robe in the cup, stood up and smiled, "I'll go back and give the book to the emperor!"

"The Lone King prepares fragrant tea and wait for the good news." Qin Lei smiled faintly.

According to historical records, during the Qin-Qi battle at the 19th Zhaowu, Qi lured the enemy into deep, closed the gate and attacked it, locking the main forces of the Qin army within the border, intending to achieve his contributions in one battle and destroy the powerful Qin to the court.

In the early stages of the battle, everything was under the calculations of Zhao Wujiu, the commander of the Qi army. The Qi army was defeated first at Luoshuiyuan, then at Hulao Pass, and then at Muye City. He led the arrogant Qin army to Muyeyuan and kicked off the strategic counterattack with a successful ambush.

If the script of Yu Shenggong is interpreted, the Qin army will be defeated after a big defeat and blocked by the surging river. They will either jump into the river to commit suicide, flee in all directions, or kneel down to surrender... But no matter what the ending, the fate of the 400,000 elite Qin army disappearing seems to be doomed. The Qin State's national power also seems to have come to an abrupt end...

However, the mainstay appeared in the vast sea, and Qin Yutian was born! He blocked the pursuit of the Qi army with an extremely tough attitude; he used his personal charm beyond imagination to gather a bunch of broken soldiers, led them to burn their boats and fight back, launching a shocking and shaking super counterattack on the Qi army! He achieved an impossible victory!

In the battle of Makinohara, he pulled the desperate Qin army back from the edge of the cliff, giving the Qin Empire a chance to play the world, forcibly turning the history that was originally going to take a sharp turn in another direction. Qin Lei, who completed this impossible task, also gained great reputation, and since then he overwhelmed the secular system and became a legendary existence.

In addition to bringing 200,000 Qin troops out of desperate situations, the more important reason for achieving this legend is that he defeated Zhao Wujiu and broke the myth of Yumeng Gong's invincibility... The beginning of a myth always requires an annihilation of a myth, which is an eternal truth.

On the first day of September, Qin Lei led his army to surround the capital of Qi, Shangjing. After three days of besieging the city, Qi forced Qi to sign a unit under the city, and arbitrage for compensation, and sent the remnants of Qin in trouble out of the country. It is known in history as the "Peace Agreement of Shangjing".

On the third day of September, the silver was handed over, and the Qin army began to withdraw its troops eastward, and the Qi State Observation Group headed by Prince Rong was accompanied by the Qi State Observation Group. Although there were only more than 500 people after the 5,000 guards were removed, there were more than 30 people above the earl, five people above the duke, and two people above the king! The specifications were so high that it was unprecedented!

For the nobles of Qi who lacked fun, this trip was a long autumn trip, which was really a great topic of talk to others in the future. The 100,000 taels of silver was second. They were not worried that the Qin army would change their faces and kidnap... because according to the agreement, they had to send the Qin army and his men to the Yangchanban military camp, which was the front line of the Qin army. There were 50,000 elite troops stationed in danger, and they were afraid that the Qin army would cause any storm?

The reason why Qin Lei wanted these princes to accompany him was to avoid being harassed by the military and civilians of Qi along the way. If he was disturbed day and night, he would be restless and restless in bed and food, he would probably have gone a thousand miles away and the troops would become empty. What else would he talk about in combat effectiveness?

Secondly, it is also to add an experience to these nobles of Qi... The enemy is the enemy after all, and Qin Lei does not expect that through the relationship along the way, they can turn these people into the "pro-Qin faction". But with this experience, the psychology of these people will change quietly. If one day the Qin army is really coming and they will surround the capital again, the will of these people will not be so firm, and it may give Qin Lei an opportunity to take advantage of... At present, this is a free move, but it is precisely because of this that people cannot see through it.

‘For a strong fortress, breaking from the inside is the best way to do so.’ This is Qin Lei’s creed.

"Preparing for the future is better than sharpening the gun in the face of battle." This is another creed of Qin Lei.

Therefore, Qin Lei also entertained these people with the highest specifications. Along the way, BMWs and beautiful wines filled the mountains, rivers and mountains of Daqi, making all the princes and princes quite happy and forget to return.

Under such high-end escort, the journey of Shanghai was clear and peaceful. After half a month, I walked a thousand miles and arrived in Huguan County, Changzhi Prefecture, at the foot of Taihang Mountain. It was early October winter, the north wind blew, the grass and trees withered, and the night had already started to freeze...

The army stationed outside Huguan County to repair it, preparing to embark on the last and most dangerous journey before returning to China - Huguan Grand Canyon.

Huguan Canyon is composed of Wuzhixia, Longquanxia, ​​Wangmangxia and Zituan Mountain. The whole journey is full of cliffs. In addition to the sheep intestine path as thin as the throat, it is a bridge and plank road hanging on the steep wall. Its dangerousness is no less than the difficulty of the Shu Road. The poem by Prime Minister Cao is evidenced by:

"It's so difficult to go north to Taihang Mountain.

The sheep intestines bent and the wheels were destroyed.

The water is deep and the bridge is lingering.

Be confused and lost the old road, and you will never stay in the evening."

When Meng De, who has always been so arrogant and underestimated the heroes of the world, led his army to fight the west and attacked the high-ranking officials entrenched in the Huguan area, he sighed without any concealment, "I am so depressed that I want to return east. I am sad that the poem "East Mountain" makes me sad." It shows that the danger of Huguan canyon is difficult to overcome the natural barrier.

Now Qin Lei is also standing outside this canyon that has caused the suffering of the heroes of all ages. Time flies, and over a thousand years, Cao Gong and his hegemony have been beaten away by wind and rain, but the steep roads, harsh environments, and even the cold climate have not changed.

Standing in the camp, staring at the vast mountains in the distance, thinking about the unknown way forward, Qin Lei sighed and said, "Those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety, this is a difficult road ahead!"

"Why should you worry too much?" The generals around you comforted: "There are so many princes and princes walking with us, and you are afraid that there will be any trouble?"

Slowly shook his head, Qin Lei held the sword around his waist and said in a deep voice: "I received a secret report the day before yesterday that General Xin Jiazang, the General of Qi State, had already arrived at Yangcaiban half a month ago and took over the command of the Qi State's canyon front." He said, "What is the meaning of this order?"

"If you just keep the door, you just need to order the guard to defend strictly." Yang Wenyu whispered: "I'm afraid that the general will be very difficult to send you."

"What are you trying to do?" The eldest prince was also frowning and said, "Old thief Zhao is obviously undead and doesn't want us to return to China so easily!"

"Did he ignore the lives of so many princes?" Che Yinguo said in disbelief.

"Although Zhao Wujiu acted unscrupulously," Luo Yun shook his head and smiled, "but he still dared not to ruin Prince Rong." These princes and princes included the wealthy families of Qi, how could Zhao Wujiu be punished together?

Nodded, Qin Lei said lightly: "The Lone King pushed out the white silver, not to invite them to travel around."

"But what if the Qi army takes risks?" Qin Li asked in a deep voice: "The cliff and plank road is never short of dangerous places where one man can pass the pass without thousands of men! They can ambush a powerful brigade between Huguan and Yangchanban, and attack when the observation team leaves, and they can still leave our army all."

Qin Lei nodded and smiled, "Brother is very worried." When he thought that he might be blocked from the cliff, the generals couldn't help but be frightened and their faces became solemn.

Qin Lei turned his face to the towering Taihang, looked at the green mountains, and said no more.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little heavy, Qin Li waved his hand and said, "It's all gone, go what you should do." Although the generals were unsure, they had to bow and leave one after another.

When everyone left, only the Qin brothers were left in the field.

Qin Li walked to Qin Lei and stood still, accompanied him to look at the distant mountains. Until his neck aches, he laughed in a low voice: "Are you looking through the autumn water?"

Qin Lei shook his head and said, "No, Dongshui."

Qin Li's eyes lit up and said, "Ha, I'm starting to joke, is there a solution?"

He glanced at him in a slanted glance, and Qin Lei said lightly: "Don't look at the 50,000 elite troops under Xin Jiazang and occupying the natural danger of the canyon, but in my eyes, I am just a native chicken and a treasure."

Unexpectedly, Qin Lei said wildly, and Qin Li couldn't help but laugh and said, "I want to hear what kind of native chickens and tiles are?"

"Look at who are missing around me?" Qin Lei smiled sly, "It's just the few who wander in front of me all day long."

"It seems like there are fewer than two." Qin Li said suddenly: "One who has a cold face all day long and a long horse face. These two people seem to have never seen them since leaving Makino City."

"Brother is so good at memory." Qin Lei nodded and smiled: "This time I passed the test, I fell on these two people!"

Qin Li Daqi said: "Those two boys are so magical?"

"Whether it is a god or not, it depends on the result." Qin Lei's gaze once again looked at the vast mountains and said softly: "The terrain is too complicated. If you are not careful, you will be doomed."

Qin Li nodded in deep agreement and said in a deep voice: "But this also creates conditions for us to win unexpectedly."

That night, Qin Lei had just fallen asleep when he heard Shi Gan whisper: "Shen Bing is here."

"Come in." Qin Lei put on his clothes and lit the lantern on the table.

With the dark lights, he saw Shen Dusi, who was like a savage, appear in front of him.

"How is it?" Qin Lei didn't care why Shen Bing looked like this, and asked bluntly: "Is there any possibility of conquest?"

"Yes!" Shen Bing said concisely as usual: "But it is also very likely to fail." As he said that, he explained the situation of Yang Caishang and the combat plan he planned with Ma Kui in detail.

"The divine weapon descends from the sky." Qin Lei laughed and said, "If it succeeds, your Shen Bing's name will be well-known to the world."

"If it fails," Shen Bing said softly: "Please take care of your mother on your behalf."

Nodding solemnly, Qin Lei said in a deep voice: "No need for advice."

The next morning, before the mist dissipated, the Qin army drove the camp into the mountains. Qin Lei set up the commander camp in the rear army, and the Qi State Observation Group was naturally with him.

Two hundred thousand army and sixty thousand civilians walked in a row, waiting for the sun to reach the sky before the rear army where Qin Lei was located entered the mountain.

As soon as I entered the mountain, I saw a mountain peak, which looked like five fingers stretching out. Qin Lei asked Prince Rong beside him, "Is this mountain called Wu Finger Peak?"

Prince Rong had visited here before. He heard this and stretched out his thumb and said, "Brother, I guessed it well. This mountain is called Wuzhi Peak. Even Wuzhi Gorge is named after this mountain." As he said, he said, "The Wuzhi Peak is majestic, strange, dangerous, quiet, and beautiful. It not only has the cliffs cut by a knife and axe, but also the various rocks. As the saying goes, "The five dangerous cliffs are blooming, and the five fingers are standing tall and graceful, and the storm suddenly rises in the clear spring water. Is it a turbulent rain?"

"Good literary talent." The princes and princes of Qi around them applauded and praised: "Good scenery!"

But some people said regretfully: "It's just that the time is wrong. If spring and summer come, the mountains are green, the water is gurgling, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, fresh and pleasant, wouldn't it be happy?" Then they made an appointment to come here to seek refuge in the summer after May Day next year... It's really considered a trip.

After walking through Wuzhixia, the mountain road suddenly became narrower and gradually disappeared. Instead, it had to slowly move forward by digging the ancient plank road on the steep cliff.

These plank roads are less than one meter wide and winding. Everyone got off the carriage and walked forward carefully, making Qin Lei frightened... If an ambush came out, even the gods would not be able to save him.

However, the princes and princes of Qi were in high spirits. In order to hear the echoes in the valley, some even screamed from time to time.

Walking along the ancient plank road for several miles, passing several mountain bridges, and entering Longquan Gorge. There is an ancient pass on Longquan Gorge, called Dahe Pass. According to legend, Cao Cao chased high officials during the Three Kingdoms period and broke through the pass and entered Taihang Mountains. Although the past thousand years have passed, the outline of the three words "Dahe Pass" can still be seen, and the traces of the ancient pass, ancient bridge and ancient plank road can be seen.

Just as the princes and princes of Qi recalled the past and were filled with emotion, the sound of horse hooves sounded outside the pass. In a blink of an eye, a scout came in and turned over and dismounted to report: "Report to the prince, the front army was ambushed by Qi, and the eldest prince is already organizing a counterattack. And ask the prince to go!"

As soon as this was said, the soldiers of Qin drew their swords and angrily surrounded the princes and princes of Qi.

Although the princes of Qi were hiding behind the guards, their faces were still as dark as the faces, obviously frightened.

"I want an explanation." Looking at Prince Rong, who was looking down on his face, Qin Lei said lightly.

Prince Rong was always by Qin Lei's side. The two sides were suddenly nervous. Before he could even escape, Qin Lei tightly grabbed his wrist. He couldn't help but scream and said, "I don't know either!" This was pure nonsense, and he didn't expect Qin Lei to listen at all.

Who would have thought that Qin Lei would really let go of him and said in a deep voice: "You really don't know?"

"The strength is so great." Rubbing his wrist, Prince Rong smiled bitterly, "What kind of person are we? Although he dare not say a word, he never tells lies." He was still very satisfied with Qin Lei's attitude.

"What's going on?" Qin Lei said angrily: "Is it because Zhao Wujiu is so brave that he wants you to be buried with the Lone King?"

The princes and princes of Qi immediately believed this and couldn't help but greet the "willful and unrighteous" Yu Shenggong, who was "ruthless and unrighteous" a hundred times.

"What does the prince mean?" Seeing Qin Lei's face unhappy, Prince Rong tentatively whispered. The princes and princes were also cautiously waiting for Qin Lei's answer. They were very worried that Qin Lei would use them as human shields to open the way.

His eyes flashed and he looked at everyone, and Qin Lei suddenly laughed and said, "I'm afraid that the Lone King will take you as hostage?"
