The team finally arrived at Hangu Pass. In the Hanguan City system, Dawei Pass is also easy to defend and difficult to attack, and is extremely strong. But the real difficulty is Hangu Pass. For Jiang Min’s caravan, as long as they successfully enter
Hangu Pass and even Dawei Pass made of bluestone will no longer be an obstacle to them.
The team stopped in front of Hangu Pass, and Jiang Min shouted loudly: "I am Jiang Min from Luoyang,
At this time, the city gate opened a crack, and a general in his thirties ran out and said with a smile on his face: "Dr. Jiang, you are really on time!"
This general is called Zheng Quan, and he is Zhang Wutao's confidant. When Zhang Wutao was still a gangster, this Zheng Quan was his younger brother. In fact, he was also a Luoyang gangster. He was always there to greet him, and of course he wanted to gain benefits.
Jiang Min glanced at Guancheng. The lights on Guancheng were dim and he couldn't see anything clearly, but he knew that Zhang Wutao was watching him from Guancheng.
"General Zheng, this time it was agreed in advance!"
When Jiang Min saw Zheng Quan walking towards the bullock cart, he immediately said with a long face: "We agreed not to check!"
"I know! I know! General Zhang told me not to check. I'm just a little curious."
Zheng Quan smelled a strong smell of fragrant powder and felt unbearable. He opened the curtain of an oxcart and took a quick look. The oxcart was very wide inside, one foot and five feet long. There were four women in long skirts sitting on each side.
Wearing flower hats, they all pulled up the masks on their faces when they saw someone coming.
Zheng Quan only saw the face of the woman on the outside. She looked pretty good, very young, but she didn't look like Hu Ji, but more like a Han. The Hu Ji inside were all very strong. But this is normal. Hu Ji is strong? Tang women are plump.
? Everyone knows it.
It was just a strong smell of powder that hit his face, making Zheng Quan couldn't help but sneeze a few times. He thought to himself, 'Are these Orchids not good? They are all thick and tall, so they can't be sold at a good price.'
"General Zheng, we agreed not to inspect this time!" Jiang Min was really unhappy.
Zheng Quan quickly raised his hand and said with a smile: "It's not an inspection, it's just a formality? Just take a look."
Jiang Min took out a cloth bag and threw it to him. It contained three hundred taels of silver. It was also Zheng Quan's benefit. He always gave him twenty or thirty taels of silver, but this time he gave him three hundred taels of silver.
Zheng Quan felt the heavy amount of money and was immediately elated. He didn't even need to do a formal inspection and ran back and shouted: "Kaicheng!"
Guancheng slowly opened? Jiang Min asked the oxcart carrying wine to pass first, and he also entered Guancheng himself.
Sure enough, as soon as he entered Guancheng, he saw Zhang Wutao, who was smiling but not smiling. Jiang Min knew that he was waiting for her. He was like this every time. He was as greedy for money as his life.
Jiang Min turned over and dismounted. He took off the heavy horse bag and placed it in front of Zhang Wutao, "It's all in here!"
Zhang Wutao was not polite. He opened the horse bag and counted it. Inside was twenty ingots of gold. Each ingot was ten taels, a total of two hundred taels, worth two thousand guan. Plus a deposit of 1,000 guan. This time he earned 3,000 guan. Zhang Wutao
A smile bloomed on his face.
Zhang Wutao gave a thumbs up and praised: "Dr. Jiang is such a trustworthy person!"
At this time, the oxcart carrying passengers had already entered the customs. When the soldiers guarding the customs heard that Hu Ji was coming, they rushed over one after another.
Jiang Min immediately reminded: "General Zhang, tell them not to get close, they will scare the people in the car!"
Zhang Wutao walked forward quickly, waved and shouted: "Just watch, don't do anything. If anyone dares to do anything, I will cut off his dog's claws!"
Hundreds of soldiers crowded on both sides of the official road, smelling the scent of incense powder, pointing and stretching their necks, hoping to see the woman inside.
Zhang Wutao suddenly remembered what Jiang Min had promised him. He immediately turned around and asked, "Dr. Jiang, you promised me, where is my woman?"
Jiang Min pointed to an ox cart parked on the roadside in front and said with a smile: "It's inside that ox cart!"
Zhang Wutao was overjoyed and walked forward quickly. Through the gap in the car curtain, he saw a tall, plump and charming woman sitting inside.
Zhang Wutao himself [81 Chinese website www.zwdu8.me] is a scoundrel. He couldn't bear it any longer. He opened the curtain and got into the car, "Little lady, I'm here to love you!"
He was so horny that before he could fully enter the cart, he reached out to grab the woman's arm, but his grasp was empty. Zhang Wutao only felt an unbearable and severe pain coming from his wrist. It turned out that his right hand was gone.
Cut off at the wrist.
Zhang Wutao screamed in pain, and then with a flash of cold light, Zhang Wutao was kicked out and fell heavily to the ground. His left hand was gone, and the head on his neck was also missing.
At this time, a tall woman walked out of the oxcart, holding Zhang Wutao's head in her hand. The woman was Ying Caihe. How could Ying Caihe tolerate this man being rude to him, so he cut off his claws with a single blow.
Jiang Min complained secretly, didn't he agree to make a move after everyone entered the customs?
All the soldiers in the pass were stunned, and Jiang Min shouted, "Do it!"
I saw groups of orchids in skirts coming out of bullock carts, carrying shields and short spears. They were not "orchids" at all. They were clearly groups of strong men with beards.
Immediately afterwards, the lids of the large wine barrels were also opened, and 1,500 soldiers came out of the large wine barrels. They raised their knives and attacked the soldiers guarding the gate, as well as the driver of the carriage, the man leading the mule, and the people behind and behind.
Guard, a total of 2,500 scout soldiers.
They were all brave and good at fighting, and they killed a thousand soldiers guarding the gate. They had no way to escape, and they all knelt down and surrendered.
Jiang Min had kicked Zheng Quan to the ground and ordered two Hu Ji soldiers to tie him up.
This operation was a joint operation between the Jin Wei Mansion and the Scout Battalion. Among the Hu Ji were some female warriors from the Jin Prince's Mansion. They sat outside the bullock cart to deal with enemy inspections. The young woman Zheng Quan saw was exactly
A female warrior from the Jin Wei Mansion.
The leader of the scout camp was Xu Rui, a lieutenant general. When he saw that the battle was almost over, he said to Jiang Min: "You can inform General Pei!"
Jiang Min looked around and asked, "Have any enemy soldiers escaped?"
"I have confirmed that no soldiers escaped!"
Jiang Min nodded and waved to a Jinwei warrior. The warrior understood and lit a torch on Guancheng and waved the torch.
Two miles away, Pei Xin led an army of 30,000 people and was ready. He saw the torches waving on the tower and immediately ordered: "March!"
The 30,000-strong army sped up and rushed towards Hangu Pass. Capturing Hangu Pass was a matter for the Jin Palace and the scout battalion, but it was Pei Xin's task to attack and annihilate the 20,000 enemy troops in Dajiao City.
The battle in Hangu Pass has completely ended. More than 700 soldiers have been captured in armor. They are sitting aside nervously, waiting for processing. The soldiers of the scout battalion put the wine barrels back into the cart. These props will be used later.
The 'Orchid Girls' resumed their women's clothes and were about to get back on the bullock cart. Ying Caihe, who had seen the dragon but not its tail, disappeared as usual. Zhang Wutao's head was thrown to a female warrior from the Jinwei Mansion to take credit for his achievements.
It was given to her. Ying Caihe came here on Guo Song's order. This kind of credit meant nothing to her.
Jiang Min is explaining to Zheng Quan that Zheng Quan is the key figure in their plan to seize Dawei City. Jiang Min understands Zheng Quan's status very well. Although the generals in the army despise him from the bottom of their hearts, Zheng Quan can pretend to be powerful and seize the city.
It is entirely possible for the door to open.
Zheng Quan looked at Zhang Wutao's head in front of him and was so frightened that he trembled all over. Jiang Min confessed and he agreed.
At this time, Pei Xin led his army into Hangu Pass. Xu Rui went up to report the situation. Pei Xin nodded, "Now that we are ready, let's go!"
Jiang Min grabbed Zheng Quan and said fiercely: "I'll remind you one last thing. If you want to survive, just do as I say. I will let you go home afterwards. If you dare not cooperate in the slightest, you will be kidnapped tonight."
Your fate is handed down here!"
Zheng Quan said with a cry: "I promise to obey orders and don't dare to mess around!"
"Let's go!"
Jiang Min continued to move forward with the caravan. He escorted Zheng Quan, followed by two thousand soldiers led by Xu Rui, and Pei Xin led the army following far behind.
The huge caravan was walking in the long canyon, and Xu Rui sent people to kill two guard towers halfway along the way.
Da'ao City is located ten miles northeast of Hangu Pass. After the caravan walked for half an hour, an open space appeared in front of them, and the tall and majestic Da'ao City appeared in front of everyone.
Dawei City is also a pass city. The city is tall and strong, blocking the passage between the east and the west. It is more important than Hangu Pass. Hangu Pass only defends against Western armies, while Dawei Pass allows access to both east and west.
It can hinder the east's army from advancing westward, and it can also prevent the west's army from advancing eastward.
The management of Dawei Pass is very strict, and caravans are strictly prohibited from entering and leaving the city at night. Although Jiang Min is special, he still cannot enter the city on his own. Every time, Zheng Quan takes him into the city at night. Without Zheng Quan to lead the way, they will not be able to enter the city tonight.
