章節 792: Chapter 343: Tearing Off the Disguise_3

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.
