Hangu Pass!
The west of the Yellow River is located on the plateau, facing the mountain stream in the east, the Qinling Mountains in the south and the Yellow River in the north.
The pass is in the valley, as deep and dangerous as a box, so it is called Hangu Pass!
The reason why the State of Qin was able to grow to its current state was because of the existence of Hangu Pass.
In the past, Su Qin had allied with the six countries, but he had never made Qin retreat from Han Valley.
Looking from afar, one could feel the magnificence and vastness of Hangu Pass.
How could he even talk about approaching it?
The Hangu Pass of the Qin Dynasty was much more boorish and bold compared to the later generations.
However, the Qin soldiers stationed on it and the flags that were fluttering in the wind.
They were all telling the horror of this pass.
As they neared Hangu Pass, Sister Zhou trembled just by looking at them.
On one hand, the pass was vast and majestic, and the soldiers stationed on it emitted a monstrous ferocity that made one's scalp tingle.
On the other hand, he had been riding on horseback for days.
Sister Zhou was a little overwhelmed.
Sister Zhou is awesome! I didn't expect to be able to travel with Sister Zhou!
He had always wanted to take a look at Hangu Pass, but he had never had the time. He did not expect to see it in this live broadcast room.
This was a huge profit. Where could they see such a majestic and vast pass now?
She was a little envious of Sister Zhou. Now, she needed a ticket to see Hangu Pass.
There was a lot of discussion in the live broadcast room, but none of them were as touched as Sister Zhou.
Just by looking at this pitch-black pass, she could imagine the importance of this pass to the Qin country.
It was easy to defend but difficult to attack.
In a military sense, this fortress could be said to have the effect of controlling the situation of the world.
In any dynasty in ancient times, the one who obtained Hangu Pass would basically obtain the world.
Qin was able to unify the six directions because of the right time, the right place, and the right people.
It wasn't just pure bravery.
However, the valor of the elite Qin warriors had been magnified infinitely under the management of generations.
"Who are you?"
Just before the 5,000 strong army arrived at Hangu Pass, the Qin soldiers in the fortress came forward and asked.
Baiqi parted the soldiers and walked forward.
The moment he saw Bai Qi, the soldier who had come forward to question him immediately knelt down and said,"I didn't know that Lord Wu 'an had descended. I'm sorry for offending you, but please show me your document!”
When they recognized that the person who had come was Baiqi, the soldiers could not hide the fanaticism in their eyes.
However, they did not let Bai Qi go just because of his identity.
Hangu Pass was Great Qin's number one fortress. Even if the King of Qin came personally, he would need a proper reason.
Otherwise, he would be punished by military law!
When Baiqi heard this, he took out two wooden slips from the luggage he carried on his horse.
However, he did not hand it over to the two soldiers.
"This matter is of great importance. Go and inform the general."”
When the two soldiers saw the unique patterns on the wooden slips and the color of the rope tied to the wooden slips, they immediately reacted.
Baiqi did not have to wait too long.
A soldier came forward to report,"General Meng invites Lord Wu 'an to come in for a chat."”
At the same time, a large number of soldiers poured out of Hangu Pass.
Jiang Bai stood up and brought along 5,000 soldiers to support them.
Some led their warhorses to feed their fodder, some began to cook, and some began to replenish their rations.
Hangu Pass, as a fortress, naturally had many functions such as garrison, supply, training, and so on.
This time, he came to Han Valley first because he needed supplies and to avoid Zhao's eyes and ears.
On the other hand, he needed to come here to meet the general guarding the pass, Meng Ao.
Baiqi had some matters that he needed to personally explain.
Meng Ao was originally from the Qi Kingdom, but his talent was not appreciated. After he joined the Qin Kingdom, he was immediately worshiped as a high official.
However, Meng Ao was not the general of the State of Qin yet.
He had sat in the position of High Official for a long time. Although he had completely taken root in the Qin country, he did not have many opportunities to make contributions.
He was only truly appointed as a general ten years later, when King Zhaoxiang died and King Zhuang Xiang ascended the throne.
However…
Now that the battle for Shangdang was fierce, even though Qin had many famous generals.
For example, Wang He, Wang Ling, or the generals of the Great Qin Imperial Clan.
However, it was also somewhat dwarfed.
Meng Ao only had a transfer order and Baiqi's recommendation.
That was why he was able to come to Hangu Pass and temporarily become the general of the city.
Under the leadership of a few soldiers.
Soon, Baiqi arrived at the general's residence at Hangu Pass.
Meng Ao was already standing in front of the door, waiting for his arrival.
When he saw Bai Qi, he immediately smiled and said,"Why didn't Lord Wu 'an tell me beforehand that he was coming?”
In reality, Meng Ao was a serious person.
Usually, no matter what he did, he was meticulous.
However, because of Baiqi's recommendation, he was able to come here to defend the city and display his talents.
There are often thousand-li horses, but there are not often Bole.
Therefore, Meng Ao was extremely grateful to Baiqi.
"It happened so suddenly. Moreover, this matter is top secret.”Bai Qi laughed.
Under Meng Ao's lead, they were welcomed into the mansion.
Meng Ao's hair was already white, and his face was starting to look old.
However, it gave off a feeling of being old but firm, capable and sharp.
As soon as he sat down, Meng Ao said with some emotion,"Lord Wu An and I are about the same age, but Lord Wu An looks so young.”
Baiqi waved his hand and smiled.”
This was just a small talk.
However, it made the live broadcast room laugh nonstop.
Good heavens, it really was Uncle Treasure!
I didn't expect that I, Lord Wu 'an, would have such a black-bellied side.
I'm dying of laughter. Meng Ao is probably going to be stunned.
Bai Qi did not say much about this matter. He looked young because of his golden finger.
Perhaps after this battle, he would look even younger.
However, Baiqi did not care about these things.
He came here because he had something important to discuss with Meng Ao.
Baiqi went straight to the point," I came here because the king wants the battle of Shangdang to end as soon as possible. I'll go and preside over this battle."”
Hearing this, Meng Ao was not surprised.
He was also like Wang Jian and had long guessed a little.
Furthermore, he was currently the State of Qin's high-ranking official. His status was naturally higher than Wang Jian's.
He also knew a lot of information.
"With Lord Wu 'an stepping out, this battle will definitely be a complete victory," said Meng Ao with a smile.”
Bai Qi smiled and said," I didn't come here just to talk about this matter. This battle seems to be to determine the victor for Shangdang, but in reality, I want to take Handan in one fell swoop!”
Breaking through Handan!
Meng Ao was stunned. Immediately, some surprise surfaced in his eyes.
He looked at Baiqi and said,"The victory of this battle is already a blessing from the heavens. If we want to attack Handan again…"
He pondered for a while.
He then looked at Baiqi and said earnestly,"It's not that I doubt that Lord Wu An doesn't have the strength, but the difference between destroying an army and destroying a country is too great.”
"If Lord Wu 'an destroyed Handan and destroyed Zhao, how would he be rewarded?”
"In the past, Zhang Yi lobbied the six countries to enter Qin and was appreciated by King Huiwen. He was granted the title of Prime Minister and later, Lord Wuxin. His reputation and status were not inferior to Lord Wuan.”
"However, his end result was that he was old and had nowhere to rely on.”
"So what if Lord Wu An is compared to Lord Wu Xin?”
