Chapter 863: Breaking the Guangcheng Pass (Part 1)
Chapter 863: Destroying Guangcheng Pass (Part 1)
After a long march of more than a month, the 100,000-strong army led by Sun Jian finally arrived at Guangcheng Pass to join Bai Qi's army. At this point, there were a total of 110,000 troops under Guangcheng Pass.
Bai Qi had prepared camps for the coalition forces in advance, but after Sun Jian entered, he discovered something was wrong. Bai Qi's army was filled with joy, and every soldier had a smiling face, just like this
It seems that the battle is won before it is even fought.
Just when Sun Jian was confused about this, at the first meeting of princes, the greeting gift Bai Qi presented surprised Sun Jian.
"who is he?"
Sun Jian was stunned and pointed at the general who was tied up like a rice dumpling in the hall, and said in shock: "General Bai, tell me again, who is he?"
Bai Qi looked at Sun Jian indifferently and said calmly: "This person is the guard general of Guangcheng Pass, Han Qinhu."
Sun Jian didn't mind Bai Qi's attitude, because he had long heard that Bai Qi was indifferent by nature, even when facing his own lord Qin Hao, so of course he would not think Bai Qi was rude because of this.
Hearing Bai Qi's sure words, Sun Jian still couldn't believe it. After all, he knew Han Qinhu, and the frustrated man in front of him did look somewhat similar, but the difference in spirit and energy was too big.
Big.
Sun Jian, who knew him, didn't believe it, and other princes who didn't know Han Qinhu would certainly not believe it either.
"What? This person is actually Han Qinhu?"
Liu Yao was startled at first, then sneered: "General Bai Qi, this joke is not funny at all."
"Yes, even if Han Qinhu is being stupid, he will not abandon Xiongguan to fight and be captured alive by General Bai Qi." Qiao Mao said disdainfully.
"That makes sense."
Most of the princes not only didn't believe it but also made sarcastic remarks, while Bai Qi looked at them indifferently without any explanation.
And the way Bai Qi looked at the ants also made all the princes extremely unhappy, so his ridicule became even more outrageous, and this made Qin Jian on the side unable to stand it.
"Huh, do you guys have any brains?"
Qin Jian snorted and said coldly: "Bai Qi is a famous general in the world, does he need to tell such a meaningless lie?"
Qin Jian's words silenced everyone. After all, a person with Bai Qi's status really had no intention of telling such lies that could be easily exposed.
At this time, Sun Jian walked up to the person to confirm. After staring at Han Qinhu for about ten seconds, he couldn't help but take a breath, and then said in a deep voice: "This person is really Han Qinhu."
"What? Is it really Han Qinhu? How is this possible? General Sun, are you reading that correctly?"
Sun Jian looked at Han Qinhu with a complicated expression, and then smiled bitterly at the princes and said: "Han Qinhu is the brother of my subordinate Han Dang. During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, I had a good time drinking with him, so it is impossible for him to admit his mistake.
"
"It's true, oh my god."
Now it was the turn of the princes to be shocked. Just now they had vowed that it was impossible, but in an instant they were slapped in the face, and they were slapped so loudly.
Sun Jian ignored the princes, but looked at Bai Qi seriously and asked: "General Bai Qi, what is going on?"
Sun Jian was not the only one who was curious. Everyone who had just arrived was extremely confused. Guangcheng Pass had not been breached yet. How could Han Qinhu, the defender, be captured alive?
Bai Qi glanced at everyone indifferently and said calmly: "This is what happened..."
Next, Bai Qi told everyone about the process of capturing Han Qinhu alive. Of course, it must be an abridged version, removing some details such as the withdrawal of troops, as well as Ah Qing's true strength.
But even this made all the princes extremely amazed. They all looked at Han Qinhu as if he were a fool. This guy actually took the initiative to come to his door. He was simply giving Bai Qi his military exploits in vain.
Han Qinhu was also obviously hit hard. Shuangguang looked dull and lifeless, letting everyone point at him without saying a word.
At this time, Han Dang broke in from outside the account, rushed to Han Qinhu's side, and shouted: "Brother, brother, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"
Han Qinhu turned his head dully, and when he saw Han Dang, a glimmer of light finally appeared in his eyes, but he remained silent.
"Bai, what on earth did you do to my elder brother?"
Han Dang walked towards Bai Qi angrily, but before he could reach him, he was stopped by Sun Jian.
"Justice, calm down. If it weren't for General Bai Qi, you brothers might have killed each other this time."
Han Dang finally calmed down after hearing this, but struggled a little and said: "But brother..."
Sun Jian also frowned and asked: "General Bai, what happened to Han Qinhu? Even if he was captured alive, it wouldn't be like this, right?"
Bai Qi glanced at Han Qinhu and said calmly: "Maybe Han Qinhu still can't accept his defeat at the hands of my wife. Just think about it."
Bai Qi's words were a bit harsh in the ears of the princes. Yes, everyone didn't believe you at the first time, but you obviously told this lie to disgust us on purpose.
Ah Qing was not present at this time, but even if he were present, the princes would certainly not be able to defeat the powerful Han Qinhu at the hands of a delicate woman. This is obviously unreasonable.
If Han Qinhu knew what the princes were thinking, he would definitely roar: How is that woman weak? She is obviously a female tyrannosaurus.
Although Sun Jian didn't quite believe what Bai Qi said, his mind was obviously not on this at this time.
Sun Jian knew Han Qinhu's ability. On the way over, he had been thinking about how he could break through Han Qinhu's defense with minimal casualties. However, he did not expect that Han Qinhu would be captured alive by Bai Qi.
It also gave him no chance to implement many of the imaginary plans he had in mind.
Seeing Han Qinhu being captured alive, Sun Jian had another thought, and immediately said: "General Bai, Han Qinhu is the brother of Han Gongyi, and I and Gongyi are brothers. I don't know if..."
Before the Sun family finished speaking, Bai Qi knew that he wanted to ask Han Qinhu, so he immediately objected: "No, I can't make the decision on this matter. Sun Taishou can write to my lord for instructions. If the lord agrees, it will be fine."
Seeing Bai Qi being so ungrateful, Sun Jiande also frowned, and then Wu Qi sighed and said in a deep voice: "Okay."
Sun Jian returned to the main seat, and Bai Qi also ordered people to suppress Han Qinhu. After seeing Han Qinhu, the atmosphere was relaxed.
After all, the defenders of Guangcheng Pass were all captured alive, so what else was left to fight in this siege? The morale of the defenders inside the pass must have been greatly reduced, and it would definitely take less than a few days to break the pass.
As soon as he thought of this, Sun Jian immediately issued an order to attack the city with all his strength. Considering that Bai Qi had already achieved great success by capturing Han Qinhu alive, Sun Jian did not let Bai Qi participate in the siege.
