As for the hinterland at the rear, connected only to Hanzhong County by a small path, there were not many defenses.
Only at the other end of Yangguan Mountain Road, in a place called Linguan Pass, ten thousand elite soldiers were stationed to guard against the threat from Hanzhong.
But how could these mere ten thousand soldiers and horses possibly be opponents for the sixty thousand elite troops led by Huang Xuan himself?
Within just one day, under Huang Xuan’s personal charge, this military fortress was breached, and thousands of Zhou people were killed in the city, while the rest were captured.
Then, the Chu army used Linguan Pass as a base, leaving ten thousand soldiers to guard it, and the remaining fifty thousand soldiers and horses were divided into five routes, roughly seizing territory in the surrounding prefectures and counties.
Within just a few days, the five routes of soldiers and horses had attacked and captured thirteen county towns and two prefecture cities, occupying the vacuous hinterland of Longxi Prefecture.
With the news spreading, there was an instant shock in the Helong region.
He Basheng, who was commanding the troops at the time to resist the encirclement and annihilation of the invading barbarians, was so shocked that he almost fell from his horse.
At this moment, his hundreds of thousands of troops were pressed at the front line, fighting wits and courage with the barbarians. Countless soldiers and horses were dragged down to the front line hundreds of miles away from the rear. In the urgent situation, he was unable to pull out many soldiers and horses to stabilize the rear.
The key issue was.
If the news of Chu people’s deployment in his rear came to the barbarians.
Those Snow Plains Nomads would definitely be greatly inspired. It wouldn’t be as easy as it was in the past to give an overwhelming counter-attack to the opponents and let the barbarians retreat obediently.
Perhaps the Snow Plains Nomads would continue to increase their troops, hold up their own front-line troops, and cooperate with Chu State’s actions.
After all, the current Chu State has married the spiritual woman of the barbarians, and both parties are allies, so it is only natural for them to cooperate with each other.
