The Huns' military camp was under Gaoque Pass, and they faced off from a distance with the Qin army on the city. One day, King Youxian came to the city again. After Wang Li heard the report, he also came to Guan Guan. He saw the ten major phalanxes of the Xiongnu arranged very neatly. They were breathing murderous intent and obviously would not give up until they entered Guan Guan. Wang Li didn't hesitate, so he came out of the pass to duel with Lan Tonggu. But the difference this time is that there is a pair of meteor hammers tied around Lan Tonggu's waist, and two swords are flying in his hands. As soon as they met, they started fighting without saying anything more. The two fought with swords and swords for dozens of rounds. Lan Tonggu suddenly stopped. Wang Li was surprised, so he stopped the weapon in his hand and asked, "If you can't resist, why don't you surrender?" Lan Tonggu yelled, "Who said I'm surrendering you? I weigh sixty kilograms on my waist." The big hammer is extremely powerful. Do you dare to try it?" Wang Li said: "What kind of weapon have I not seen before? You can use it to see it." Lan Tonggu threw away the two swords and took them off from his waist. The pair of big hammers came full circle and hit Wang Li straight away. Wang Li hurriedly raised his weapon to block it, and it turned out to be a bit powerful. The two fought fiercely in front of the formation for a hundred rounds, but they still couldn't decide the outcome. Wang Li thought to himself: This man is indeed brave, but he is not scheming enough. When I threw down the knife and replaced it with a hammer, I could have rushed over and chopped him. But I can't take advantage of someone's danger, otherwise it would be disgraceful even if I killed him, so I might as well outwit him. After thinking about it, he pretended to be defeated, then turned his horse's head and ran straight west. The soldiers of Qin State thought that Wang Li had been defeated, and they were so nervous that they held their breath. When Lan Tonggu saw Wang Li running away, he howled and chased after him. However, Wang Li deliberately slowed down his pace and was about to catch up. He suddenly turned around and stabbed Lan Tonggu with a sword. Lan Tonggu couldn't dodge. The sword had already penetrated his body armor, drove straight in, and penetrated the blade on his shoulder. The flesh of the tendon suddenly burst into blood. Lan Tonggu was shocked and hurriedly turned his horse's head and ran towards the main formation. King Youxian and the Huns soldiers were shocked when they saw this, and everyone's shouts stopped abruptly.
When Wang Li saw Lan Tonggu running away, he shouted at the Huns' position: "Which of you still dares to challenge?" After asking several times, there was silence on the Huns' position. King Youxian was also shocked. Seeing that the Xiongnu warriors did not dare to challenge, he shouted to Wang Li: "General Wang, you will win today's duel, but you may not be able to stop our siege troops." Wang Li shouted He replied: "Your Excellency, King Xian, the Great Wall built by the people of Qin is like a copper wall and an iron wall. If you can open a few holes, you will be considered awesome!" When King Youxian heard this, he was so angry that he had nothing to say, so he had to say: "Okay, That's it for today! I'll see how strong your city wall is in the future. Hum! Retreat! Retreat!" Under the order of King Youxian, the Huns soldiers all returned to the camp. Seeing this, Wang Li also withdrew his troops and returned to Guan Pass.
In the next few days, both sides were actively preparing for war. A few days later, King Youxian specially waited for the fifteenth day of this month. He led the Huns soldiers to Gaoque Pass again. They lined up neatly and kicked so hard that the ground was shaking. The sergeants shouted in unison: "Kick down the Great Wall! Take back the grassland! Kill! Kill! Kill!..." The sound shook the sky, and the arrogance was very arrogant. The Huns soldiers were divided into ten square formations. Four square formations served as the leaders of the siege troops. Thousands of siege vehicles roared towards the city first. When they were about three hundred steps away from the city, they galloped forward. I saw the dozens of miles long Great Wall defense line, and the sound of killing suddenly shook the sky, and the roar was like thunder. After the enemy siege vehicles arrived at the city, they approached the city wall. Their vehicles were equipped with ladders. The Huns soldiers put the ladders on the high city wall and began to climb the city wall.
However, on the entire Great Wall defense line, Wang Li had already prepared for a counterattack. They had already placed thousands of ballistas on the flat ground on the south side of the Great Wall. Under the command of the general at the top of the city, the sergeants fired thousands of rockets at the enemy's position. The rockets all landed on the Huns' position, and plumes of smoke suddenly appeared in the sky, just like fireworks. , the rockets were as dense as raindrops, and the whole sky darkened. Although the Huns soldiers were also protected by soft armor and shields, the arrowheads of each arrow had fireballs, and the arrows penetrated the enemy's soft armor, naturally igniting a fire. Those who were hit by the arrows were burned to the point of crying for their fathers and mothers. , running around. At this time, the Qin army on the city had also fought with the enemy. Some of them shot arrows, some threw wood, some poured oil, and some stabbed the opponent with long weapons. The Huns soldiers charged continuously. Those in front fell, and those behind were added. The offensive was extremely fierce, and they had the momentum to not look back until they hit the south wall.
This critical battle lasted until night, with corpses piled up in mountains above and below the city, and King Youxian was still supervising the battle. The reason is that the moon is very round and bright tonight. The Huns were very superstitious and believed that they would definitely win when the moon was full, so they continued to fight determinedly. The two sides fought for another hour. Suddenly, flames shot into the sky behind the Huns soldiers, and a magical team appeared there. After this magical team entered the Huns' position, they rushed towards the central army headquarters of King Youxian. One of the leading generals was very brave. He shouted loudly while charging: "I am Zhao Hai, the general of Qin. Where can Chief Hu escape?" When King Youxian heard this, he was shocked and hurriedly ordered the soldiers on his left and right to come forward. To meet the attack, he also picked up weapons and prepared to defend himself.
It turned out that Wang Li had known for a long time that this was a large-scale defense battle. In order to achieve a complete victory, he secretly transferred his deputy general Zhao Hai and asked him to lead 50,000 warriors to fight out from Lianmo Pass in the east and attack. The camp of King Youxian. Although King Youxian was surprised, he was the commander-in-chief of the army after all and had the ability to deal with emergencies. At this time, when he saw Qin's army appearing in his position, he shouted loudly: "Don't panic, everyone! The siege continues! Anyone who retreats without authorization will be killed!" So he personally led the Chinese army to fight against Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai raised his spear and stabbed the right king. King Youxian parried with the Xiongnu sword on the high chariot. Both sides stabbed with spears and chopped them with knives, killing each other fiercely. However, the Huns also had many generals, and they were all dispatched at this time to protect their commander, so Zhao Hai still did not kill King Youxian.
The battle lasted a night. Wang Li saw from a distance four of the ten Xiongnu phalanxes coming to attack the city. A Chinese army was commanding the troops behind the siege. However, they had already been attacked by Zhao Hai's army, and the formation had already begun. After the change, the remaining five phalanxes still stood there unmoved, and their torches were all bright. In order to completely resolve the battle and defeat the Huns, Wang Li organized five groups of troops, each with 2,000 people, to fight out of the gate, and together they attacked the solid Huns formation. Wang Liqin led the first group to attack Lan Tonggu's camp after leaving the customs; Su Jiao led the second group to attack Huyanqu's camp; She Xian led the third group to attack Xu Bumin's camp; Wu Minghe Cao Shu led two groups to attack the remaining two military formations. In this way, they attacked all the Huns' military formations. The Xiongnu siege troops were directly commanded by King Xian. At this time, all the siege troops became nervous when they saw the Qin army leaving the pass. However, they had received orders not to retreat and continued to attack the city.
At this time, the soldiers of the Qin army were fighting with all their strength on the battlefield. Under the fierce attack of Zhao Hai's army, King Youxian and Hu Yanping were forced to have no way out and had to fight left and right in the crowd. At this time, suddenly some Huns soldiers came to report that General Zuo Lan Tonggu had been killed by Wang Li. It turned out that Lan Tonggu's body was already stained with color, so he was unable to fight. So he was killed by Wang Li on the battlefield, and the army formation was scattered. King Youxian relied on this person. Now that this person was dead, King Youxian became panicked. Not long after, two more people came to report that Qin general Su Jiao had killed the left captain Hu Yanqu, and the right captain had also been killed by She Xian. At this time, King Youxian received reports of defeat and bad news one after another, so he panicked and said to the supervisor: "I didn't expect that the Qin general would be so powerful? Is this attack on Qin going to fail again?" Hu Yanping said: "King Xian, All our troops have been attacked by the Qin army and are becoming more and more passive. Why don't we withdraw from the battle?" As soon as he finished speaking, the sky suddenly turned dark. King Youxian suddenly looked up and saw a large group of black clouds covering the moon, and hurriedly ordered: "Quick! Retreat! Retreat!" When the herald heard the order, he immediately asked the sergeant to blow the withdrawal horn. The Huns soldiers heard the order and fled. Wang Li led his troops to pursue him for another journey, but he did not dare to go deep into the desert rashly, so he withdrew his troops and returned to Guan Pass.
After daybreak, Wang Li and the Qin soldiers cleared the battlefield together. When they arrived outside the pass, they found that there were still many siege engines that had not been burned, so they transported them all to the pass and captured many Huns' trophies. Seeing that Wang Li had gained a lot, he asked people to count the corpses on the battlefield. They found 20,000 corpses of Qin soldiers and 50,000 corpses of Xiongnu soldiers. Although the Qin army won, they all shed tears when they saw so many corpses. The soldiers mourned silently, burned and buried all the remains of both sides, and then returned to the gate. When Wang Li saw that he had won the battle again, he reported victory to the court.
King Youxian led the remaining defeated generals to the foot of Yin Mountain. It was already dawn. When they arrived at the camp, the wise king also asked someone to count the number of people. He found that half of the 100,000 troops were lost, and he said sadly: "Wang Manzi is a master of military skills. He is worthy of being the grandson of Wang Jian. We should not underestimate him in the future." Man! Under the leadership of His Majesty the Great Chanyu, we worked hard and worked hard to manage various ministries for nearly ten years before we established this army. Now we are defeated by the Qin army. This is really a shame and humiliation for us Huns! How can I express my gratitude to the Qin army? Your Majesty, Shanyu?" After saying this, he couldn't stop mourning. Hu Yanping, the Marquis of Zuogudu, said: "There is no need to be sad, a wise king. Success or failure is a common thing for military officers. The power of Qin's frontier fortress is still very strong, and it is difficult to break through it in a hurry. But it depends on manpower. I heard that the second emperor of Qin was a foolish king. He spent all day in drinking and drinking without asking. Political affairs, this is a harbinger of defeat. After a while, the rebels in their country become the climate, and the Qin State will definitely transfer Wang Manzi away from the Great Wall. At that time, if we leave the Yinshan Mountains, the land of Henan will not be owned by the Qin State. !" After hearing Hu Yanping's words, King Youxian turned from worry to joy, and he wholeheartedly hoped that Qin would be in chaos as soon as possible. An hour later, the Xiongnu soldiers who were defeated by the Qin army disappeared again under the vast Dayin Mountain.
More than ten days later, Wang Lizheng and his soldiers were discussing matters in the government office in Linhe City, when they suddenly heard that an envoy from the imperial court had arrived. Wang Li hurriedly came out to greet him. The envoy entered the hall and read out the edict in public: "Wang Li, the commander-in-chief of the Great Wall Army, heard the edict: You killed the Xiongnu general Lan Tonggu and others, and defeated the Xiongnu. You have made outstanding achievements. I am very pleased. Now the Xiongnu soldiers have already If we retreat, nothing will happen in a short period of time. However, the domestic situation has suddenly changed, and people from the six countries have rebelled one after another. Now there are rebel generals in Hebei, Wu Chen, who are urgently sending troops to attack Xingguan. Jingxing is the throat for Yan and Zhao to enter Hedong. If If they fall into the hands of the thieves, the counties in Hedong will no longer belong to the Qin State. I order you to immediately hand over the task of guarding the border fortress to the deputy general Zhao Hai, and then mobilize the army to go south. Go out of Jingxing to quell the rebellion of Yan and Zhao. You must kill the rebels and rebels. Get everything exactly as it should be, without any mistakes.”
Wang Li received the edict and said to the envoy: "Lord Angel, although the Huns have retreated, I am afraid they will come again after I divide my troops!" The envoy said: "There are many rebels in the country, how can we still survive?" Concerned about foreign troubles? You must carry out the edict and do not disobey it!" Seeing the envoy's tough tone, Wang Li had no choice but to obey. After the envoy left, Wang Li handed over the task of guarding Gaoque Pass to deputy general Zhao Hai, and ordered deputy generals Liu Kun and Zeng Jun, and captains Li Xin and Zhou Ren to help him. Wang Li also mobilized 50,000 Qin troops from Yunzhong and Yanmen and rushed to Mayi to stand by. Then he took along the generals Su Jiao and She Xian, and the heroic generals Wu Ming, Wang Su, Wang Ang, Guo Cheng, Meng Xiang, Cao Shu, Maoqu, He Huan, and dozens of civil servants, a total of 50,000 border guards left Linhe and marched towards Mayi. When Wang Li came to Mayi, reports of the defeat at Jingxing Pass had been sent one after another, saying that Guandu Lieutenant Du Yu had been killed by Li Liang. Wang Li was very shocked. After the soldiers and horses from Yunzhong and Yanmen arrived, he led the army directly towards Jingxing Pass.
