Chapter 167: Descending to Hanguan at Night
There are two flowers, one on each branch.
A birthday banquet almost became Dong Zhuo's funeral banquet, Dong Zhuo was so angry that he moved his eyes from Baichuan to his own jurisdiction, and issued the strictest wanted warrant after he moved the capital to Chang'an: the Chang'an opera troupe flew to assassinate Xiangguo with the intention of rebelling against the whole city, and the case was solved within ten days of Jingzhao Mansion, otherwise Jingzhao Mansion would be punished for the crime of collaborating with the enemy.
At this time, Wang Li had not yet moved his eyes to Chang'an, until he saw the flying pigeon briefing from Jizhou: Jizhou Pan Feng died, Bohai Zhang died, Ju Yi was injured, and Han Yuan was both defeated. Guangchuan has fallen, Han Fu and Yuan Shao confronted Zaoqiang.
Wang Licai slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and waved his big hand to follow the law.
"Order: Immediately send a letter to Meng De, and ask him to send troops to Hanoi, pass through Jiguan, Yuewangwu Mountain, pass through Wenxi, Anyi, and Xiejie County to join us and others in Tongguan."
"Order: Yan Changshi and Xun Shizhong are in Luoyang, and Gonghe, Zhicai, Yuan Hao and Luoyang and the generals of Sanguan, Liu Bei and Zhang Yide will go out with me to attack Hanguan and Chang'an!"
"No!"
……
At night, a bright moon hung in the sky, and the bright silver glow reflected through the gaps between the scattered flags and the arrows of the city wall, on the blue boulders and clusters of weeds under the Han Pass.
A vole came running from a field not far away, squeaking excitedly as it watched the corn scattered on the ground. A more than one-meter-long pit viper came out of the grass, revealing its hideous fangs and biting the vole tightly.
Apparently, the pit viper is very satisfied with the voles that have become a midnight snack. It spitted out a letter and held its head high, like a victorious general, moving its body slowly, intending to return to its territory past the boulders and weeds in front of it. Suddenly, the body of the earth pit viper was stunned, and Hongxin trembled in front of him, as if he felt a burst of murderous aura in front of him.
A ray of light flashed through the weeds, the earth pit viper had been broken into two, and the vole in its belly had not had time to digest it, so it turned into a ghost in the underworld with the vole, and the weeds fell into tranquility again.
Until the third watch, the sound of turning off the "Bang Bang Bang" spread to the grass, and a head popped out of the grass, and a pair of micro eyes flashed cold, staring closely at the head of the Han Guancheng.
About half an hour later, a small white flag suddenly poked out from the arrows at the head of the city, and then the sound of a night owl sounded on the gate.
Here it comes!
The man's eyes condensed and coughed lightly, and the boulders and grasses around him suddenly moved, although the vibration was slight, but it was still visible to the naked eye in the near distance.
The man didn't care if it was a boulder spirit or a little grass demon, he just made a slight gesture of his hand, and those spirits had already followed the man crawling towards the city gate. No, it was spread flat, like a blue carpet from the gate to the gate.
The vermilion gate screaked, revealing a crack in it. The spirits straightened up one after another, and withdrew from the "boulders" and "grass" on their bodies, revealing a black armor and dark arrow sleeves, and a red ribbon tied around each of their arms.
It turned out that those spirits were the mountain soldiers that Wang Li had formed in Qinghe-Zhu Yan, a group of "special combat soldiers" composed of hunters and men from the rivers and lakes. Zhu is disgusted, as fast as an ape, climbing like a monkey, flying on the wall to startle the ape and take off the rabbit.
The leader nodded in satisfaction, and with a slight gesture of his hands, a hundred and ten people disappeared into the city gate.
The kung fu of tea, bursts of muffled humming and the thick smell of blood wafted through the city. Three torches suddenly lit up in the shape of a character at the head of the city, shining brightly in the dark night, like a lighthouse guiding the way on the sea.
"Wow!"
The war horses neighed, thousands of war horses flashed out of the dense forest, and the knights on the horses were all dressed in black clothes and black armor, and their eyes were condensed, like ghosts in the night.
"Kill!"
The leading general, with a square-faced helmet, waved a crescent halberd in his hand violently, and thousands of knights raised the soldiers in their hands and screamed. The war horses marched in unison, their hooves churning and trampling the ground wantonly, as if a black torrent swept away.
……
Fan Chou lay on the big bed, looking at the delicate concubine beside him, his big hand gently stroked the forged green silk, listening to the concubine's peaceful breathing, and his heart was extremely satisfied.
There are only tired oxen, and there is no ploughed ground. He is forty years old this year, and he can still make this young land not get more qi than he can out, which is not something that ordinary people can do.
He hadn't ploughed the ground for almost a year, and when Dong Gong left Luoyang for Guanzhong, he left himself in Hanguan, the first blockade line from Luoyang to Chang'an.
The ferocity of Wang Li and Cao Cao, he had seen it under the Mengjin Pass, and he had also seen it in the dense forest in front of the Han Pass. Meng Jindu flew with spears, and Hu Zhen and Yang were destined to return to Huangquan; The five hundred halberds in front of the Han Pass are like forests, and Guo Yan turns into meat sauce.
Therefore, he is very cautious and attentive, he wants to build Hanguan into an impregnable city, no, a bunker. Although he didn't know this word yet, he meant it this way, and he wanted to make Wang Li and them like rats and turtles.
For almost a year, he soaked in the barracks and construction sites, and it was not until some time ago that he found time to take the third concubine.
Of course, he can only marry very "civilized", he remembers Guo Yan's lesson very clearly, and now Guo Yan's grave grass is probably a foot deep, if Wang Li is kind enough to build a tomb for Guo Yan.
Fan Chou tossed and turned, and finally came to some sleepiness.
Suddenly, there was a burst of soldiers and the screams of the soldiers one after another. A cold sweat flowed down his forehead, Fan Choucarp jumped off the bed, put on his clothes, picked up his sword, and didn't look at the concubine he had worked so hard to "marry" back, called the guards and walked out of the door.
There was already a shout of killing outside the door, and several fire dragons rushed from a distance, and the leader was Zhang Liao, the general under Wang Li. Zhang Liao rode on a horse, a crescent halberd was superb, and a round of bright moon exuded an unparalleled brilliance in the crowd, touching it immortal and hurting.
Only hearing the screams of the soldiers and the thunderous hooves of horses, Zhang Liao had broken through the defense line of the Xiliang Army and went straight to the front.
"Zhang Liao'er, Hugh is rampant!" Fan Chou roared angrily, pulled the reins in the hands of the guards and jumped up, the long sword came out of its sheath, and stabbed towards Zhang Liao like a poisonous snake.
Zhang Liao sneered and shot like electricity, the halberd was like the bright moon, and the bright moon turned into a halberd. Everyone felt that there was a flower in front of them, and the crescent halberd in Zhang Liao's hand fell from the sky suddenly, as fast as the wind, as ruthless as a wolf, and a bright moon had smashed on the long sword.
The moonlight splashed everywhere, and the cold color was pressing.
Fan Chou was taken aback and his heart froze, except for Lu Bu, he had never seen such a fast and ruthless halberd technique, and he struggled to fight up the spirit of twelve points, and the long sword in his hand flew left and right, like a silver sea, trying to protect himself in the moonlight.
But seeing that the night came from the sea, Ning knew that Xiang Yun did not. The moon rises and the moon sets, and everyone knows that the bright moon rises from the sea at night, but who knows that it will disappear from the sea every night?
After fighting for about a dozen rounds, Zhang Liao's tongue burst into a spring thunder, and with a shake of his hand, the bright moon had quietly disappeared into the sea, gradually condensing into a "giant axe" high above. Then he slashed downward, and the surrounding sea parted left and right in an uproar, and a deep ravine several zhang long suddenly appeared in the sea, flying towards Fan Chou with lightning speed.
Fan Chou was shocked, and raised the long sword above his head with both hands, and suddenly there was a palpitation, back pain, and numbness in his hands. What's special is it, it seems that he is really old, and he tosses too much at night, and this toss is really going to be old.
But in the blink of an eye, Fan Chou didn't have time to retreat after thinking about turning around a thousand times, so he heard a pop, his body was crumbling like a heavy hammer on a horse, the long sword in his hand had been broken, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
The river and the sea are condensed, and the tide is gone.
Zhang Liao sneered, unforgiving, and a halberd flew towards Fan Chou, this castration was like lightning, like a dragon, seeing that the general who guarded the city of the Han Pass, the famous general under Dong Zhuo was about to fall in a pool of blood.
"Wen Yuan, keep people under the halberd!"
With a shout in the distance, a fire dragon swooped down from the pass, and a general rushed to the front, and a long knife flew up and stood on the crescent moon
On the halberd.
"South Wing?" Fan Chou looked at the visitor tremblingly, only to see the visitor nod, took back the long knife and flew off the horse, taking off the helmet to reveal a familiar face with Chinese characters.
Xu Rong arched his hand towards Zhang Liao, turned to Fan Chou and asked, "Wen Guang 1, you were ordered by Dong Zhuo to guard the Han Pass, and now that the Han Pass has been lost, what are you going to do?" ”
"South Wing, you know that Chou Nai Dong Gong personally pulled it in the ranks, and Chou was ordered by Dong Gong to guard the Han Pass, and he should have defended it. Now that the Han Pass has been lost, it has fallen into your hands again, what can you do if you say it is thick? It's nothing more than a death to repay Dong Gong! Fan Chou spat out the blood in his mouth and looked at Xu Rong, with a bitter smile on his face.
"Are you planning to repay Dong Zhuo for his promotion? Wen Guang, you have been sticking to Hanguan for more than half a year, do you think Dong Zhuoke still remembers you! ”
Where can you remember? Since Dong Gong went to Chang'an, he has never seen Dong Gong again, and the supply of grain and grass in Chang'an is getting less and less.
Fan Chou smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Since ancient times, loyal ministers have not been the second master, although Chou is not a loyal minister, he can't ignore the past kindness of Dong Gong!" ”
Wen Guang, Rong and Wen Ying thought the same way at the beginning. Are you going to go down the same path as a few of us again? Xu Rong let out a long laugh, a trace of ridicule hung on the corner of his mouth, and he didn't know whether he was laughing at Fan Chou, or laughing at himself and Hua Xiong.
Xu Rong's words were like a slap in the face, and Fan Chou was shocked suddenly, this Xu Nanyi in front of him was not an idle person, but he was also a heavy general under Dong Gong back then.
It's just that in the battle of Liangdong County, He Huaxiong and others were lost to Zhao Yun, and they were ruthlessly abandoned by Dong Gong, and more than 10,000 soldiers Mengjin Pass resisted 100,000 lions in Kanto, and Huaxiong's big man back then has now become a piece of land in front of Xiaopingjin Pass, do you want to follow in their footsteps!
Suddenly, there was another neighing of war horses, torches like stars in the dark night, and thousands of cavalry and tens of thousands of foot soldiers surrounded Wang Li and walked in front of him. His concubine was also helped to the front of the battle, and the soldiers under his command had already stopped fighting.
Fan Chou's heart was cold, could it be that this Wang Deyu planned to blackmail himself with his soldiers and his concubine? Doesn't it mean that Wang Li is a man who stands up to the sky and the earth for the country and the people, and what about the good benevolence and righteousness? "Fan Wenguang, although you are the champion of the three armies in the Xiliang camp, Wang Mou is not a bad person with a bodhisattva's heart, if it weren't for the fact that you don't have the same evil deeds as Guo Yan, how could Wang let Wen Yuan stop and let the south wing come to persuade you?"
A scolding woke up Fan Chou, and when he saw that Wang Li had already ridden out, he pointed at himself and shouted: "No matter what you decide today, Wang will not be guilty of the past, and your family and guards can also be returned to you, but in the coming day, the generals under Wang will not be merciful again!" ”
Fan Chou couldn't help but be angry, Fan Mou is also a well-known Xiliang hero, is it in the eyes of you Wang Deyu that he is a coward who is greedy for life and afraid of death! However, it seems that Wang Deyu just said that he would release his family and guards?
Fan Chou was undecided for a while, but when he saw a person next to Wang Li coming to him, he scolded: "If one room is not cured, why should the world and the country be?" Fan Wenguang, if you have the heart to plan, it is inconvenient for my father-in-law to put his beak in it.
But as the head of the family and the commander of the army, should what you do be worthy of your relatives and brothers in the army, otherwise what will you rely on to conquer the world in the future? Is it because you don't want your subordinates, or because you don't want your relatives! ”
Hongnong Yang, Yang Dezu?
Yang Dezu shouted violently, Fan Chou's heart trembled, and he saw that the Xiliang elite soldiers under his command, as well as the newly recruited Hongnong soldiers and concubines, all looked at him eagerly, and jumped down from the horse and fell to the bottom:
"Fan Chou, meet the lord!"
exegesis
1 thick: the meaning of dense, Fan Chou did not see the word in history, according to the "Hanshu Irrigation Fu Biography": thick people. Take the word Wenguang, but unfortunately not surnamed Yang, otherwise another Yang Wenguang was born.
