Chapter 66 Arriving at Hangu Pass

"It's finally here." Looking at the city wall of Hangu Pass that was vaguely visible in the distance, Gu Xiao couldn't help but sigh.

Since they set out from Xianyang City, they have been traveling for almost a month, and now they have finally arrived at Hangu Pass.

Looking at the Hangu Pass in the distance, the flag on the wall was still vaguely the Qin flag, Gu Xiao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

On the way, what he was most worried about was not the situation of the Six-Nation Alliance, but whether Hangu Pass was still in the hands of the Qin army. At this moment, looking at the Hangu Pass in the distance, Gu Xiao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Enter the city!" Gu Xiao raised his horse whip and signaled to the army behind him.

"Here!"

The vast 200,000 Qin troops immediately rushed to Hangu Pass. The 200,000 army looked at the Qin army flag flying in the distance, and gave a breath, and finally it was time to get news.

"Meet the General!" After checking the command arrows, the 200,000 army naturally entered Hangu Pass. Soon, the guard of Hangu Pass appeared in front of Gu Xiao.

Gu Xiao looked at Wang Ling in front of him and ordered calmly: "Get up!"

Almost two years ago, when he just returned to Qin, the guard of Hangu Pass was Meng Wu, who was standing beside him now. Now the guard of Hangu Pass has become a royal tomb. Gu Xiao looked at Wang Ling and led Meng Wu and Wang Jian to the city tower while asking: "What is the situation of the six-nation coalition outside the pass?"

"The situation outside is very lively during this period!" Originally, Wang Ling had always had a bitter face, but after hearing Gu Xiao's question, he immediately smiled a little.

"It's very lively?" Wang Jian and Meng Wu asked in surprise in unison.

"That's right, you don't know! During this period, the six-nation coalition forces outside the pass have arguing almost every day. Long Yangjun, Guo Kai and other villains have attacked Xinlingjun and Li Mu all day long. Even if Tian Dan hadn't stopped him yesterday, Xinlingjun would have already chopped Long Yangjun!" Wang Ling said with a smile.

"What's going on?" Gu Xiao asked carefully.

He must not doubt whether what Wang Ling said was true. As someone who had dealt with Xinlingjun, he knew very well. Although Long Yangjun was known as the third swordsman of Wei, he probably was no different from a child in front of Xinlingjun, the number one swordsman of Wei.

If Xinling Jun really wants to kill Long Yang Jun, he will probably not be his opponent at all.

In the past two years, Gu Xiao asked himself that his sword skills had made great progress, and it was even better than when he fought with Bian Dongshan back then, but he still dared not say that he was confident in the joint efforts of Xinlingjun and Zhu Hai without using the whirlwind sword style.

Wang Ling obviously thought this was very interesting. At this moment, Gu Xiao asked, and he immediately said, "According to the news from the Black Ice Platform, yesterday morning, Xinlingjun sent someone to send him an urgent document to the State of Wei. He asked King Anli to send someone to send him a batch of food and military supplies immediately. As a result, this caused Long Yangjun to attack! At that time, Long Yangjun accused him sarcastically, saying that Xinlingjun was consuming food and money under the Hangu Pass. Xinlingjun was so angry that he almost chopped him with a sword at that time, but Tian Dan finally pulled them away!"

"Hahahaha!" Gu Xiao and the other three laughed in unison, laughing very happily.

Although they didn't see it with their own eyes, just listening to Wang Ling's retelling here, they could imagine that Xinling Jun was so angry that his beard jumped up. It has to be said that Long Yang Jun was so angry that he was always calm, which is really admirable.

"Wait!" Gu Xiao laughed a few times, then reacted and asked Wang Ling, "You just said that Xinling Jun wanted King Anli to send food and military funds over. Why? Are there not enough food and grass for those people below?"

Wang Ling nodded, not understanding why Gu Xiao asked this, but he still answered honestly: "The six-nation coalition below has been arguing for more than half a month, and the food transported from Zhao State is no longer enough to eat. Guo Kai from Zhao State has been crying poor these two days, so Xinling Jun planned to transport a batch of food transported from Wei State!"

"What's the situation in Hangu Guanzhong?" Gu Xiao was relieved when he heard Wang Ling say this. The development of the situation was indeed not as expected. With constraints from the country, even if Xinlingjun and others are above the sky, they are helpless.

When Wang Ling heard Gu Xiao start asking about the situation in Hangu Guanzhong, he looked embarrassed and said, "The situation in Hangu Guanzhong is very bad!"

"What's wrong?" Gu Xiao asked in confusion.

In just a while, he had observed the situation of Hangu Pass. Although there were traces of war left everywhere on the walls of Hangu Pass, there was not much despair or sadness on the faces of the soldiers. It can be seen that the morale of the army was available, so there was no need to worry about this problem. He didn't understand. What else would happen if Hangu Pass was unable to succeed?

"There are not enough arrows in the army!" Wang Ling explained in embarrassment.

"What?" Wang Jian shouted.

As the most important level of the Qin Dynasty, Hangu Pass has stored the city-guarding materials that have been used for almost a year all year round. How could it be insufficient?

Thinking of this, Wang Jian immediately stared at Wang Ling sternly, his eyes almost catching up with the sharp blade.

Under Wang Jian's gaze, Wang Ling smiled awkwardly and said, "Don't get me wrong, the arrows were not used up, but special circumstances! Didn't it rain for almost a month a while ago? The library where the arrows were placed was bitten by a mouse, and almost one-third of the arrows were soaked that they couldn't be used! By the time they were discovered, it was too late!"

After saying that, Wang Ling lowered his head in shame. Even if he found a reason, he could not change the fact that military supplies were damaged in his hands.

At this time, Wang Ling only hoped that he would not die too miserably!

Bang! After listening to Wang Ling’s narration, Gu Xiao finally couldn’t help it and slapped Wang Ling in the face with a slap.

This idiot! Such a big basket appeared in his hand, which is simply unforgivable.

"Come here, drag Wang Ling down and beat fifty military sticks again!" Gu Xiao ordered coldly.

"Here!" Gu Xiao gave his order, and immediately several of his personal soldiers stepped forward and pulled Wang Ling down.

Fortunately! Fortunately! Wang Ling, the person involved, and Wang Jian, who was watching, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this. The punishment was really not serious.

If the military supplies were not properly kept, the charge was not too big or too small. To be more important, Wang Ling's head was enough to lose his head. Now he was just hitting him with fifty military sticks, which was already a lighter attack.

Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!

Wang Ling was dragged down and beaten the military sticks heavily. Crisp sounds continued to reach Gu Xiao and others' ears.

"General, when we came this time, we didn't bring many arrows. The arrows were not enough. What should we do?" Wang Jian looked at the Six Kingdoms military camps below and asked worriedly.

Gu Xiao said: "That's not simple. Starting today, I'll just hang hundreds of straw men down the city every night, so I'll just do it!"

Gu Xiao’s method is extremely scoundrel. In this way, they will never have to worry about not having enough arrows!
