Chapter 144: Dilemma Wandering (3)
Languan County is not close to Tongguan, with a total of 200 miles. However, Guanyi has already asked his troops to set off towards Tongguan in advance, which is enough to reach within one day.
This distance was nothing to him. After unifying his opinions with Zong Yu, Guan Yi took his personal guards to Tongguan.
The commander of the eastern route was naturally Guan Yi, Zong Yu was the supervisor of the rear army, and Jiang Bin also had generals such as Wei Qiu, Ning Yi, Zhang Wei, Zong Fang, etc., as well as many generals such as the army who were outstanding for their merits or for their bravery.
On the way, Guan Yi caught up with the army, and then headed straight to Tongguan without stopping.
In Tongguan, Guan Yi and the generals sat around the map. Wei Qiu was marking the map at this time: "Master, time is tight, and he has only carried out simple construction and repaired one side, which can prevent the Wei army from slacking off the light cavalry."
Hongnong County, which was in Tongguan, was still a territory of the Wei people, and the army's supplies were also urgent. Although they were prepared this time, they only carried seven days of reserves. Fortunately, they attacked the Wei people's supplies here, and now they have reserves that can be almost for the army to be fifteen to twenty days.
In this way, there is no need to consider resisting step by step and delaying the enemy's actions. Instead, it is directly blocking in Tongguan. Then you have to consider building fortifications. However, the time is not long, so the construction period can only be accelerated and must be completed within two days.
Tap the camp gently: "If the Wei army leads all the troops to attack with all their might, our camps must be strong. When Your Majesty personally leads the army to come, and attacks on both sides, the enemy will definitely collapse."
Tongguan is in a dangerous position, and the width of the battlefield is limited. As long as you have solid fortifications, the situation is not too bad.
Now I am afraid that the Wei army will also attack from Hongnongfa's army and attack on both sides, so it will take time.
At present, we can only be strictly guarded, especially reserves are the most important. If you eat well and have sufficient weapons, you can take it down. Therefore, you must be wary of the Wei army that may have arsoned cavalry to attack the reserves.
Hearing the report of the cavalry, most of the Wei army was approaching. At this time, Guan Yi personally led dozens of cavalry to the north bank of the Wei River to see the Wei army camp closely.
Coincidentally, Yang Hu also circled the Wei River to observe the surrounding terrain. At this time, the two sides were only separated by a small river about two feet wide, and the depth was just overwhelming.
At this time, both sides were dressed in ordinary cavalry. One side had yellow military uniforms, and the other side had dust and dust. The other side had crimson military uniforms, and the dust covered their faces.
Just looking at the mounts on both sides, they were extraordinary. The horses riding by Yang Hu and his group were all rare horses with shoulder heights of more than six and a half feet, and were very conspicuous. The horses under Guan Yi were even more than seven feet tall and had a strong muscle, which made Yang Hu and his group feel excited. They looked back and forth at Guan Yi carrying a crescent sword.
Although Yang Hu did not use his muscles and bones as his strength, his military officials and personal soldiers were all jealous. Not to mention anything else, the BMW in front of him was worth a thousand gold.
Especially now Liu Yuan, the commander of the Huns in the Allied Forces Division, is only ten years old and has extraordinary courage and has been recognized by the Hun tribe. He has basically booked the next Hun King.
Liu Yuan was a descendant of Maodun Shanyu, the leader of the Xiongnu in the Western Han Dynasty. At that time, Liu Bang, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, married a royal family daughter as a married princess, and made an appointment with Maodun Shanyu to be brothers. Therefore, Maodun Shanyu's descendants all took Liu as their surname.
In the early years of Jianwu in the Zhonghan Dynasty, the son of Wuzhuliuruo, King Jubi of the Lord Younariju, called himself the Southern Shanyu and settled in Meiji, who entered the Xihe River. At that time, Zuoguo City in Lishi was the palace where the Shanyu moved.
During the Zhongping period, Qiang Qu Shanyu sent his son Yu Fuluo to lead troops to aid the Eastern Han Dynasty and fight against the Yellow Turban Army. At that time, Qiang Qu Shanyu was killed by the people of the country, so Yu Fuluo's generals stayed in the Eastern Han Dynasty and called himself Shanyu.
Immediately afterwards, Dong Zhuo rebelled, and Yu Fuluo led his troops to plunder Taiyuan and Hedong, and later stationed in Henei. After Yu Fuluo's death, his brother Hu Chuquan succeeded to the throne and appointed Liu Bao, the son of Yu Fuluo, as the Left King. Liu Bao was the father of Liu Yuan. Later, Cao Cao divided Hu Chuquan's troops into five divisions and appointed Liu Bao as the Left Commander, and the rest of the commander was also appointed by the Liu family.
During the Taikang period, the old system was changed and the Duwei was established. Among the various Xiongnu tribes, the left part lived in the Zi family in Taiyuan, the right part lived in Qidi, the south part lived in Puzi, the north part lived in Xinxing, and the central part lived in Daling.
Although they are separated from the five divisions, from a large perspective, they all live in the Fenshui and Jianshui areas in Jinyang.
Liu Yuan was very smart when he was young. When Liu Yuan's mother Hu Yan died when he was seven years old, he was so sad that he beat his chest and stamped his feet and cried loudly. Others were moved by his sadness. People from the clan and tribe praised his filial piety.
At that time, when Cao Wei Sikong Wang Chang and others heard about it, they also praised Liu Yuan very much and sent someone to pay their respects.
Liu Yuan loved studying since he was a child. He became a disciple of Shangdang Cui You, studying "Mao Shi", "Jingshi Yi" and "Shangshu Shu". He especially liked "The Book of Zuo Shi in the Spring and Autumn Period" and "The Art of War of Sun Wu", and could roughly read both books, but "Records of the Grand Historian", "Book of Han" and the works of various philosophers.
Liu Yuan once said to his classmate Zhu Ji and Fan Long, whom I studied together, “Every time I read a book, I often can’t help but despise Suihe. Lu Jia’s lack of martial arts, Zhou Bo and Guan Ying’s lack of literary talent.
Tao is carried forward by people. If one aspect of knowledge is not understood, it is originally a gentleman who looks down upon it.
Suihe, Lu Jia met Emperor Gaozu of Han but could not establish the achievements of being a marquis. Zhou Bo and Guan Ying followed Emperor Wen of Han but could not create the great cause of education. What a pity!"
So Liu Yuan began to learn martial arts knowledge and skills by practicing it, with outstanding exquisiteness. He was long and good at archery, and his physical strength was greater than that of ordinary people.
He was burly in appearance and was eight feet and four inches tall. At that time, Cui Yizhi, a native of Tunliu, Shi Yu, and others were good at seeing people. When they saw Liu Yuan, they were all very surprised and told each other: "This person has an extraordinary appearance, which is something I have never seen before."
Therefore, they all respected Liu Yuan very much and established kindness according to their status. Wang Hun of Taiyuan treated him humbly as if he were friends, and asked his son Wang Ji to pay homage to him.
During the Xianxi period of Cao Wei, Liu Yuan lived in Luoyang as a hostage and was treated well by Sima Zhao, the powerful minister of Cao Wei at that time.
Since Sima Zhao asked Sima Yan to take over as King of Jin and was preparing to attack the Han Dynasty, Wang Hun recommended him many times in front of Sima Yan, so Sima Yan summoned Liu Yuan and talked to him, which was very appreciated.
Sima Yan once said to Wang Ji: "Liu Yuan's appearance and appearance, even if he was Yu Yu from the Spring and Autumn Period, the Jin Riyi of the Han Dynasty could not be superior to him."
Wang Ji continued: "Liu Yuan's appearance and appearance are really as the king said. However, his civil and military talents are beyond Yu Yu. Jin Rizhi is far away. If you can appoint him to command the Huns, then there will be no worries about the border chaos that cannot be pacified."
Sima Yan happily praised him, so Liu Yuan asked his father for help, and envoys from various departments to recruit 50,000 troops to help Sima Yan fight against the Han Dynasty. He was praised by Sima Yan, who intended to grant the northern part of Bingzhou to Liu Yuan.
However, Kong Xun and Yang Gui later said: "According to my observation, no one can compare with Liu Yuan's talents now. If the king does not value him, it will not be a big climate.
If he is granted power and established his prestige, then he may have a dissenting intention. Now, we are already worried about you, the king, if you still want to give him a natural obstacle, it may not work."
The Sima family originated in Hedong and belonged to the Three Jin Dynasties. This land of mountains and rivers has now been occupied by the Xiongnu, Xianbei and Wuhuan people. However, the Wei State was busy fighting with the Han and Wu countries, and it was not easy to care about it for the time being.
Because of the persuasion of the ministers, Sima Yan decided to give Liu Yuan a chance to show his performance. If this battle to attack Han was made great contributions, he would be rewarded with the counties in the northern Bingzhou for generations to farm and herd. I read the book
Liu Yuan also wanted to show that he could abandon his horse to attack the city, trying to win the first prize. Therefore, their coalition forces dismounted, otherwise, with the 30,000 cavalry of General Luo and Xiao Luo, he would not have lost a small amount of money and achieved great success.
Now, Liu Yuan has been trying to make up for this mistake and win the favor of Sima Yan. Seeing the man led by this group of people riding a horse, he was immediately jealous.
In order to compete for a divine BMW, the tribes on the grassland often break out wars of tens of thousands of cavalry.
A fertile horse that can be fertilized is a money tree for tribes on the grassland, which is a sign of a tribe's strength.
Yang Hu forced these people to hold back and asked loudly: "Is the person coming Xiao Guan Hou?"
Guan Hou naturally refers to the Han Shouting Marquis of the year. In recent years, Guan Yi has been in charge of the three counties and has also had many confrontations with the Wei people, and has been called Xiao Guan Hou.
Guan Yi gently stroked the horse's hair, and seemed to see the horse opposite. His mount became arrogant. After all, it was an uncastrated stallion, and it was in this season when the water and grass were lush.
He looked up at the person who was asking questions and saw that there were several riders behind this person, but Guan Yi didn't care about these people. His skills were improving day by day. Even when the stars shone decades ago, they could win a name. With the Yanyue Sword in his hand, Guan Yi couldn't help but smile: "It's Guan, who are you?"
"Yang Hu, a general of the Central Army of the Great Wei Dynasty, has long heard of the reputation of Guan Hou, and wishes he could meet him at first. He will meet him today and want to make friends with the Lord Hou."
Yang Hu said as he jumped off the horse, raised his hand and waved it back. The people on both sides hesitated for a moment, and they all dismounted and retreated, leaving Yang Hu alone standing by the river with his sword.
At this time, Guan Yi asked his subordinates to stay in place for a while, cross the river alone, and jumped off the horse. Seeing Yang Hu's demeanor was clear and his eyes were bright. Although he looked thin, he had a strong expression. At this time, he could take the man's head with one knife. However, after thinking about it, he gave up this idea.
Retracting his thoughts, Guan Yi smiled and said, "I see that although my martial arts are not very good, my courage is beyond the reach of people."
As he said that, Guan Yi pulled out a thorn from his waist and handed it out: "If the general wants to abandon the darkness and turn to the light in the future, he can use this object to find Guan."
If this person had just pulled the horse and wanted to leave, Guan Yi would have to ride the horse and chase it. In the past few days, he had cut off a few more people.
Yang Hu solemnly took it, looked down at the regular script above, and nodded slightly: "The king and the lord are all in martial arts, and they can set an example as they are today."
Guan Yi just smiled and heard Yang Hu say, "The courage of Guan Hou is known to everyone in the world. Yang is not talented and has a sword. Please give me a taste of it. I am willing to give it to you."
Seeing Yang Hu pulling out his sword at this time, Guan Yi's expression turned slightly cold, and he pressed it on the ring-headed sword around his waist. Although it looked like an ordinary standard weapon, it was a hundred-refined magic weapon, and the Han Shaofu provided positions for generals or above.
"please!"
Guan Yi put the Yanyue sword on the ground, then pressed the knife around his waist and said something.
Yang Hu put his name into his waist and wrapped it with his skin bag, took two steps back, and slowly pulled out his sword: "This is a sword given by the King of Jin, named Yitian. It was once a divine weapon used by Wei Wu at that time. The sword was three feet and seven inches long and weighed three kilograms and seven taels."
Seeing this, Yang Hu's cavalry approached slightly, more than twenty steps apart, and was nervously concerned, Guan Yi's guards also arrived at the river bank.
Guan Yi didn't say anything at this time, and stepped forward and slashed with his backhand. The sword light flashed, and he lifted the sword in his hand and returned to his original place.
Yang Hu barely saw Guan Yi's sword swing, and then he made a clanging sound, and the sword in his hand was divided into two, and the blade fell into the mud and sand on one side.
He stared at Broken Sword with his eyes down and his lips were pursed, his face not very good.
After Guan Yi collected the sword, he said, "Since your Wei army has come to this point, the ownership of Guanzhong has been decided. General Yang can turn around and report to your master. This road is not clear. If you know the current affairs, I can let a hundred people out of the pass, otherwise you will turn into powder. Don't say that you are not prepared for your words!"
"You can send a letter to your master, and say that the Han army's expedition in the east is inevitable. Please do not hesitate. If you want to fight, send troops quickly. He can camp on his own at the confluence of the Wei River, and I will not invade you."
Yang Hu put the broken sword into the sheath, his face still gloomy, bowing: "What does the lord say mean?"
"There is nothing else. It's just that the summer heat is hot, and long-term confrontation is useless to each other. It's better to decide the outcome early and reunite with your relatives and friends. When the food and fodder are sufficient next year, I will order all my troops out of the pass and fight."
Guan Yi said, tilting his head, the sun shining, and narrowing his eyes: "The venomous and scorching summer is invisible. Your Majesty has an order: There is no war in autumn and winter."
Seeing Yang Hu silent, Guan Yi turned over and led more than ten cavalry to the south, and he could already see the outline of the Wei army's camp here.
The Wei army's retreat was cut off, and there was no supplement to the soldiers, armor, food and grass. Not to mention ten days, if Tongguan cannot be opened in three days, then all will be lost.
"military adviser?"
After Yang Hu, Sima Yan, the real leader of their troops, came up. He reached out and picked up the broken blade two steps away, frowned: "There is such a magical weapon?"
The Yitian Sword is a first-class magic weapon, and it was cast by a rare treasure from the sky, but it was actually cut off by Guan Yi. It was really surprising!
Yang Hu breathed a sigh of relief, his voice was dull: "I thought this person knew us, especially the king."
It was already difficult, but if Sima Yan was abducted by Guan Yi again, everything would be over at this critical time.
In person inspecting the geographical situation is something that the general must experience. It not only concerns one's own destiny, but also the lives of the soldiers of the entire army, and cannot be careless.
Therefore, Yang Hu pointed out Liu Yuan and other generals as attendants, and took Sima Yan in ordinary light cavalry leather armor to observe the virtuality and reality of Tongguan. When he heard the sound of soldiers and horses, he made some arrangements and was shocked when he saw the person coming.
Liu Yuan stepped forward and said, "This Guan Hou is really bold in using troops. Wang, military advisor, I think his officials and soldiers are also with this human being. They are mostly arrogant and unprepared and easy to break."
"otherwise."
Yang Hu shook his head, but he had another opinion: "Although he is arrogant, he is eager to fight and has a high desire to fight. He must not break the enemy that is easily defeated, so he should not be careless."
