In the early morning of April, the sun was rising.
The golden sunshine shone on the entire land, causing the entire land outside Longguan to be covered with golden light. In Wang Qi's camp, the soldiers in the army had already dressed up. Even the soldiers had gone out for morning exercises and had breakfast. Now they were gathered together to prepare to send troops.
Wang Qi also rushed over.
Early in the morning, when Wang Qi got up and did morning exercises in the camp, Zhuge Feng had already reported to Wang Qi that the tunnel leading to Longguan had been dug properly and all the gunpowder had been buried.
"You only need to arrange for soldiers to light fires to blow up Longguan."
Everything is ready, Wang Qi wants to break through directly.
Wang Qi said something in front of all the soldiers, to the effect that Longguan would be broken today and the Wei soldiers guarding Longguan would be destroyed. After encouraging the soldiers, Wang Qi directly gave the order to march.
The army is only a few miles away from Longguan. In less than half an hour, the army arrived neatly. However, the army at this time was about 600 steps away from the checkpoint, and was not too close.
After all, the Wei army also has rifles.
¡°If you get within two hundred steps, within the range of a rifle, you¡¯re going to die on your own.
So, keep your distance.
As soon as Wang Qi's army arrived, he gave the order to light the fire. As the order was passed back, the soldiers in the rear camp directly lit the several-mile-long fuse.
The fuse spread from the underground of Longguan to the camp.
When the fire line started to burn, it made a roaring sound. In the dark tunnel, it seemed like a fiery snake, scurrying rapidly and constantly moving forward. Compared with the speed of people rushing on the road, the burning fuse moved forward quickly. The distance of several miles did not take long, and they arrived at the place where the gunpowder was buried under Longguan Pass.
Buried gunpowder, packets of explosives piled together. Each pack of explosives has a fuse, and the fuses of all the explosives come together. Now that it is burning, all the explosive charges must be ignited.
When the fastest-burning explosive package and the fuse were completely burned, there was an explosion with a bang.
Boom boom boom! ! !
An extremely dense explosion sounded, and an overwhelming force came from under the Longguan tower. The soil flew up, the ground shook, and the city of Longguan visibly collapsed and sank.
At this moment, the originally majestic Xiongguan began to fall crookedly.
The Wei soldiers guarding the city tower were all panicked.
The tower collapsed!
Cao Yuanli was also frightened by the scene that happened in front of him. However, his own qualities were excellent. The moment the city tower began to collapse, Cao Yuanli understood that this was the method of the Qi army.
The army of Qi State actually dug underground tunnels early and used gunpowder to ambush and explode them.
It¡¯s really insidious!
Cao Yuanli was also horrified by this approach. Before he had time to think too much, he quickly ordered all the soldiers to stabilize and prepare to resist the enemy's invasion.
At this point, a fight was inevitable, so Cao Yuanli quickly gave the order.
When Cao Yuanli ordered a deadly battle, Wang Qi outside the city saw Longguan beginning to collapse, and he immediately issued two orders.
The first order was to mobilize all the cannons and divide them into two batches to bomb the hillsides on both sides of the Long Pass. With the help of the intensive explosive power of the cannons, the firepower on both sides was weakened and the troops on both sides were suppressed.
With the second order, the army began to attack and directly entered Longguan. Even with this arrangement, we must seize the time and kill it as soon as possible.
The roaring sound of cannons sounded, and the cannons aimed at the positions outside Longguan and started bombing indiscriminately. Under the continuous bombardment, the mountains on both sides continued to tremble, even causing huge pressure on the Wei soldiers on the mountain.
Many Wei soldiers were too tired to evade and did not dare to show up.
The army of Qi State began to charge forward in a mighty manner. The soldiers charged quickly one by one. In a short period of time, they rushed to the Longcheng downstairs and launched an attack directly.
The original Longguan had a very strong rifle firepower arrangement. Coupled with the fire suppression on the mountains on both sides, you can take advantage and guard the pass. But now, there is no such opportunity.
The forces on the mountains on both sides were suppressed, the towers collapsed, the walls were already crooked, and the soldiers had no intention of resisting. As soon as they encountered Qi's army, even though Cao Yuanli ordered to resist, they fled in panic.
All the soldiers charged, quickly climbed up, then climbed onto the tower, and quickly opened fire, and shot and killed the Wei soldiers who were guarding the area but had not yet escaped.
Under the cover of the army, Wei soldiers were killed one after another.
Cao Yuanli had already descended to Longguan, and he kept giving orders to stop the attack. Compared with Qi's offensive, Cao Yuanli's soldiers, even though they were brave and skilled soldiers, were now frightened and were at a disadvantage in a short period of time.
Cao Yuan left himself and became panicked.
The enemy is too fierce.
Can¡¯t stop it.
Cao Yuanli still ordered a counterattack and mobilized his soldiers to fight to the death. The problem was that the previous explosion caused the entire Longguan to collapse. Everyone was so frightened that they no longer had the previous fighting spirit. Therefore, even if Cao Yuanli gave the order, the fighting spirit of the soldiers was not high, and it was good that they could not escape directly from the battle.
The two sides clashed, and in a short period of time, all the soldiers under Cao Yuanli's command collapsed.
Those who fled fled, those who surrendered surrendered.
The 20,000 troops completely collapsed and could no longer guard Longguan.
Cao Yuanli sighed, he stopped resisting and shouted: "Withdraw the troops, withdraw the troops!"
He himself turned around and retreated.
With Cao Yuanli's withdrawal, the Longguan defense line was completely defeated and there was no longer any resistance. There were originally a group of troops on the mountains on both sides outside Longguan. Under the constant bombardment, the firepower of this group of troops was suppressed. Even if they occupied the high ground, their situation was not very good.
Now that Cao Yuanli retreated, this army became alone. If they want to go down the mountain to evacuate, they have to encounter Qi's army. If they don't go down the mountain to evacuate, they will be trapped on the mountain.
In an instant, this became an abandoned child.
When the Qi army came, all the Wei soldiers on the mountain surrendered without any resistance at all.
After the Qi army crossed Long Pass, they pursued Cao Yuanli and his party.
The army pursued them for a while and then withdrew near noon. After the army counted the results of the battle, Zhuge Feng came to Wang Qi's side and reported: "Your Majesty, we have won a complete victory in this battle."
"The general situation here at Longguan. After the interrogation, I learned that Cao Xuan had withdrawn with his troops yesterday, leaving Cao Yuanli with 20,000 men to guard. After we broke through Longguan, Cao Yuanli withdrew his troops and left."
"After this battle, more than 13,000 people were captured and 965 people were beheaded. Our own casualties were less than 200. Longguan is now broken."
Zhuge Feng felt a little regretful.
In this battle, even if Long Pass was broken, it was still far from enough. After all, Cao Xuan was not captured.
Wang Qi nodded and said: "No matter what, it's good to have a victory. The army will rest for a while, and after lunch, they will continue to advance in the afternoon. Wudu County and Beidi County have been captured, and Hanyang County should also be captured. "
"Follow your orders!"
Zhuge Feng immediately made arrangements.
The army had lunch at Longguan and continued on its way after resting.
All the prisoners were escorted forward together.
The army is in front, and the prisoners are behind.
Although the speed of the army has slowed down slightly, it has not affected the overall situation at all.
Wang Qi's army went all the way to the west. When they arrived at Long County, they suddenly found that Long County was empty and there was no guarding army at all. Cao Xuan never guarded Long County, and Cao Yuanli did not stay in Long County.
The magistrate of Long County surrendered directly.
Wang Qi's army took Long County, took a short rest and replenished food in Long County.
As for all the prisoners, Wang Qi had already started to reorganize them along the way. After all, Zhou Zishan's political and engineering department was there. People from the political and engineering departments at all levels quickly did ideological work to persuade everyone to submit to Qi and reorganize them into the army.
When they left Long County, more than 10,000 soldiers from the Wei State dispersed and rushed into the Qi Army.
The army continued westward and went straight to Ji County, the seat of Hanyang County. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
