Chapter 256 Hangu Pass

 Influenced by various Three Kingdoms games, Fei Qian always thought that Hangu Pass was just a city wall, at most a thicker city wall. However, when he went to the site, he realized that in fact, later games have simplified Hangu Pass, so that there is only one wall left.

Section city wall.

In fact, Hangu Pass is a city. Although it is not big, it is indeed a city.

The location of Hangu Pass is very interesting. When Fei Qian stood in front of Hangu Pass, he truly realized the despair that the leading general would feel if he received the order to attack Hangu Pass.

Hangu Pass happens to be the last turning point of the Yellow River, and the terrain is extremely dangerous.

The Yellow River surges out of the mountain streams in the north, and the Qinling Mountains wind up to the high mountains in the south. Hangu Pass is built between the two mountains, and the narrowest section of the road between the two is only as wide as a carriage and a half.

, vehicles passing by must be "unilaterally released". If there is a mudslide or something, you must not stare at each other on the spot...

Even if there are millions of troops in this kind of terrain, they still can't deploy. At most, there are about a thousand people going up each time. If the number is larger, it will be crowded. When the time comes, just pour some kerosene or something down, and then

Set a fire...

Fei Qian shuddered.

After I met an accident on the road last time, I started to feel sick in my stomach after seeing meat for several days, so now I don’t dare to think about it. If it turns into sequelae or something, how will I live in the future...

Fei Qian stood under Hangu Pass, looking up at the towering gate tower, and was truly shocked. The Hangu Pass Tower has three floors. In the middle of the gate tower, directly above the city gate, there are three "Hangu Pass"

The calligraphy is large and simple, and I don’t know which ancestor’s calligraphy it is.

The overall height of the city wall to the east of Hangu Pass is about 13 to 40 feet high and about 10 feet long. It is stuck between two mountains. How wide is the city wall? You can't see it from this angle below the city, but you can only see the soldiers on it.

From the looks of it walking back and forth, it seems quite spacious.

Guan towers are built on top of the Guan wall. The uppermost floor is an octagonal tower. Bronze bells are hung at the corners of the building. The wind blows the bells, making a clanging sound. About 100 meters east of the Guan tower, two small towers are built according to the mountain.

The turrets, one called the air watch tower and the other called the cockcrow tower, can be used to directly attack the sides and rear of the enemy attacking Hangu Pass. It is obviously used to highlight the attack surface and allow the soldiers attacking Hangu Pass to be attacked from the front and back.

.

Such a dangerous place would really give any leading general a headache.

While Fei Qian was waiting for the team to enter the city, he was thinking about what he would do if he attacked by himself. This terrain made it difficult for even the team to deploy, let alone the equipment to attack the city. The attack surface was so small that even with his own men

The naval tactic was used, but there was obviously no way to force the defenders to focus on one thing and not the other. The intensity of the attack was insufficient, and it actually turned into a fuel tactic...

Is it really like someone else said, digging a tunnel to install gunpowder?

Fei Qian stared at the road under his feet for a while, then gave up on this wonderful idea. It was just a layer of dirt on the top, and you could clearly see large and small rocks below. Dig a tunnel through it - wait until these are removed.

If the rocks are all broken through, the world will probably be unified...

Finally, we queued up to enter Hangu Pass, but there was no way, the road was so wide, we really couldn’t find a place to give way even if we tried to give way, and there had to be room for two riders in the middle, so that the military information could be conveyed quickly.

Horses can gallop.

In the Han Dynasty, there were only two kinds of people walking in the middle of the road, one was the emperor, and the other was a fast horse that hastened for 800 miles. In addition, if Guan Yu saw ordinary people trespassing in the middle, the warning would be ineffective.

Next, you can directly knock it over with a single arrow from the crossbow...

Entering Hanguguan City, Fei Qian discovered that such a small city was actually a small city with an inner and outer city structure. The inner city was built close to the mountain to the north, generally showing a rectangular shape, stuck in the canyon.

The ancients were really unkind. Looking at this posture, even if they go through all the troubles to break through the city gate of Hangu Pass, oh, no matter how it is broken, once they enter the city, they will probably be dumbfounded again. They will directly attack the city.

The mode enters the street fighting mode, and the soldiers on such a long inner city wall are pouring firepower on their heads...

There is only one road in the city that runs east-west through Guancheng, and it is also the only road. In the middle of the city, there is another road going south, which is on the north bank of the Zaojian River. There is a relatively flat land, which is also the main living area of ​​Hangu Pass.

Hangu Pass, as an important checkpoint for travel between the East and the West, naturally has private facilities such as inns, as well as official inns. Fei Qian found the inn very smoothly, and settled down by virtue of his status as Zuo Shushi.

It's such a dangerous level, no wonder everyone was thinking about it at the beginning. Unfortunately, this level is really too difficult to attack. It looks like a bottomless pit no matter how you fill it with human lives.

Fei Qian had been sitting on the carriage for a day anyway, and he was really shaken. He finally reached the end of the town, and naturally wanted to walk around the city, so he walked slowly while casually thinking about the previous problems.

What if water and fire techniques are commonly used? Water is obviously unrealistic. What about fire attacks? Feiqian glanced at the houses on both sides and scratched his head a little. These houses seemed to be made from nearby rocks and hammered with yellow mud.

, and perhaps because they paid attention to the issue of fire prevention, not only did the roofs be made of tiles instead of thatch, but a canal was also built on one side of the road to divert water from the Zaojian River. On the one hand, it solved the daily needs.

On the other hand, if a fire breaks out, it is extremely convenient to get water.

As a result, even the effects of fire attacks are discounted and then discounted...

Fei Qian was walking leisurely accompanied by Huang Cheng, thinking in his mind, well, the fall of many famous cities in Xiongguan since ancient times was not due to external reasons, but to internal factors.

Therefore, if a fight really breaks out, there are still some ways...

Fei Qian walked to the inner city gate of Hangu Pass and hesitated a little.

Depending on the situation, the government departments at Hangu Pass should be located in the inner city. Do you want to go in and take a look?

The chiefs of Hangu Pass are divided into two categories: civil and military. The civil title is Hangu Pass Ling, and the military title is Duwei. Fei Qian, the civil officer of Hangu Pass Ling, has no impression. He seems to be a man named Zheng, who has some relationship with Zheng Xuan? Or is it Zheng from somewhere else?

He is a military official. He is naturally a figure from Dong Zhuo's faction, named Guo Pu. He must have something to do with Guo Si.

Should I enter now or not?

While Fei Qian was hesitating, in the post station, a person who looked like a post soldier stood in the corner, watching Huang Xu arranging the carriage and horses, his eyes flickering, and then silently, he shrank his figure into the shadow little by little. Next, he turned around quietly and slipped out of the inn...

Mrs. Mi: "General Zhao, take Adou away quickly. I must not ride with you on horseback, lest others say I am having an affair with a guard and am a libertine."

Zhao Yundao said: "We only need to have a clear conscience. Why should we care about what others say?"

Mrs. Mi said: "What if I have a guilty conscience?"

Zhao Yun was stunned and couldn't answer, so he just said: "You...you..."
