There are many famous mountains in Shu, Emei Mountain, Min Mountain, Qingcheng Mountain, Wushan, all of which are well-known in the world, but when it comes to the four words of "Shu Gateway", it must be Jianmen Mountain. There is a saying that "Shu has the solidity of serious danger", and the one who is in danger refers to the danger of praise and meridian outside, and the pass of the sword pavilion inside. The Sword Pavilion is on the Jianmen Mountain, that is, the location of the Jianmen Pass in later generations.

There is no sword gate yet, but it is just a sword pavilion, and it is already a husband and a man.

After a hard march, they finally arrived at the north of Jianmen Mountain.

Xin Er led more than 10 generals such as Bald Boye, Gao Yancao, and Luo Dang to gallop up the heights and observe the situation in the south from afar.

Jianmen Mountain is said to have seventy-two peaks.

At this time, I saw that the peaks and mountains were connected, desolate and reckless, and I only felt boundless as far as the eye could see.

As far as the eye can see, the morning sun shines brightly, from green to blackened peaks, or with a sea of yellow and red leaves.

Occasionally, birds and finches soar in the valley, and white clouds float among them.

There is a place where there is a break, forming a narrow valley running north-south, about a few zhang wide, which can pass people and vehicles. Xin Er saw a stone path and paved it here, winding up the terrain.

Not far on either side of the path are two opposite cliffs, both reaching into the sky, and near are gravel, mounds, shrubs and shallow valleys, and the road is extremely narrow, and at its widest point can only accommodate one or two people walking side by side.

The road is dozens of miles long, and at the end of the road, is a strong fortress.

This fortress is the Sword Pavilion.

And this road is basically the only passage through Jianmen Mountain.

Xin Er looked and looked, looked and looked, and finally came to a conclusion, Gu and the bald Boye, Gao Yancao, Luo Dang and others said: "This is not human to break!" ”

The Sword Pavilion is indeed not something that can be broken by manpower.

Back then, the ancestors of Li Dang, the lord of Shu today, and the displaced people of the six counties entered Shu from Guanzhong, passing through the Sword Pavilion, and after arriving here, he once sighed, saying: "The queen of Shu and Qin has such a place, and his face is bound to people, isn't it mediocre?" ”

Shu Qin, in the last years of the previous Qin Dynasty, occupied the secession force in Shu; The latter lord is the lord of Shu Qin's fallen country.

Although the heir of Shu Qin died in the country, until he surrendered, the Sword Pavilion was still in the hands of Shu Qin's soldiers.

Manpower is difficult to break, so don't fight for the time being.

As for not fighting the Sword Pavilion, how to pass through the Sword Gate Mountain? Xin Er has his own ideas.

Xin Er returned to the camp, summoned the generals, and deployed the order: "The Sword Pavilion is bound, it is not easy to attack, and give it up first."

"On the way to Jianmen, Qu Yuanguang captured hundreds of aborigines. I heard from one of them that there was a small road called Laisu, and our army could pass through that road to Qingqiangling, and under Qingqiangling, it was the avenue, and to the south could attack Qinde. Wait until Qin De is defeated, and then turn to Tang Shou, although the Sword Pavilion is dangerous, there is no need to worry, and it has only one way to surrender. ”

Qin De is on the south side of Jianmen Mountain; Tang Shou was on the east side of Qinde, facing Qin De across the Western Han River. The two counties are very close to each other, only a hundred miles away. ——In the territory of Tang Shou, there is also a pass, which is Jia Meng, but although Jia Meng is the same as the Sword Pavilion, it is also a famous Xiongguan, but the surrounding geographical environment is relatively flat, which is much easier to fight than the Sword Pavilion.

Bald Boye, Gao Yancao, Luo Dang and other generals, as Xin Er personally saw the danger of the Sword Pavilion, they all felt that this place was really difficult to fight, and they all deeply agreed with Xin Er's "non-human can be broken" and "not easy to attack" The two sentences of commenting on the Sword Pavilion. Rao Gao Yancao and Luo Dang's courage and bravery, and also agreed with Xin Er's decision to detour from the bottom of his heart, Gao Yancao even admired and said: "Ming Gong is wise! ”

Xin Er's order was issued, and the generals promised.

Xin Er called Yuanguang out of the ranks, and Wen Yan said: "Yuanguang, you have made a great contribution this time, and you must not be rewarded." In the past two years, you have been in the army in the West Sea and the Annihilation Wars, and you have made several contributions, and now you are a Sima, and I owe you a little. In this way, I will promote you as a member of the army, okay? ”

Yuan Guang's heart jumped, and he thought: "Before the front foot sent out the army, except for Ling Hujing to join the army for the capture of the general's mansion, this battle has not yet been fought, Ling Hujing has already been in a different place, Ling Huqu was deprived of military power, and was detained in the army by Li Liang; The lessons of the past are not far away, and now except for me to join the army? Mo no, Mo no, Xin Agua has murderous intent on me? Then he thought again, "I've been honest recently, since I entered Shu, I haven't done anything except catch monkeys and catch bureaucrats,...... No, no, it won't be trying to kill me. ”

First, because he didn't really surrender to Xin Er, and secondly, he did too many rebellious things behind Xin Er's back, and he was a thief with a weak heart, so that he obviously gave him a good promotion, but the first thing he thought of was whether Xin Er would kill him.

And Qu Yuanguang lowered his eyebrows, bowed to the ground quickly, clasped his head and said: "Yuanguang is all small work, what is it?" Ming Gong is heroic and strategic, and his wisdom is bestowed, even if there is no Yuanguang to capture the money and wingmen, it must not be hindered by the Sword Pavilion. With the martial arts of Ming Gong, Shu is not enough! Yuanguang does not ask for the reward of the official, but only hopes to be loyal and do his best to serve the Ming Gong. ”

"Really?"

"Yes, Ming Gong!"

Xin Er smiled and said, "Okay, okay, you get up." ”

Although there are still different aspirations, but the fate of Hujing, Song Fang, etc. is ahead, the West Sea, the Western Regions, Shuofang and the current results of the Shu are in sight, when facing Xin Er, especially when Xin Er's smile, and Qu Yuanguang can no longer be as confident as before, but involuntarily feel afraid, he got up, did not dare to look at Xin Er, and respectfully retreated to his position.

The soldiers and horses rest for a day.

The next day, he asked the person who knew the way to lead in front, and Xin Er led his troops, bypassed the Sword Pavilion, crossed the mountains and mountains, and raided Qin De.

……

Chengdu south, forty miles.

After Huan Meng came out of Pengmo, on the way to Chengdu, although it was sneaking, the news leaked after all, and was intercepted by the Shu general Li Li, the two armies faced each other, and the brave won, and the Jingzhou soldiers won three battles and three victories.

It was nearly twilight, and a report from the army arrived.

It was sent by Zhou An and Sun Sheng, who stayed in Pengmo, and said: Shu drove Li Lu to more than 10,000 soldiers and besieged Pengmo.

From Mao Husheng and the others beside Huan Meng, they were immediately shocked.

Mao Husheng said: "The baggage and weakness of our army are all in Pengmo. Zhou Yizhou's army only had 1,000 soldiers, and there were more than 10,000 attackers, and Peng Mo was trapped, not only did our army's baggage be lost, but the back road would also be cut off. The situation is at stake! Ming Gong, it is advisable to divide troops to return to Peng Mo! ”

Chengdu is ahead, the battle has already been fought to this extent, and Mao Husheng put forward this suggestion.

Yuan Ziqiao was furious, threw down the feather fan, ran forward, grabbed Mao Husheng's collar, raised his fist, and scared him and said, "Do you want my whole army to be destroyed when you join the army?" If you want to join the army, I'll kill you first! ”

Mao Hu was sturdy, broke Yuan Ziqiao's hand, pushed him aside, and said, "Yuan Yang! What a statement! ”

Yuan Ziqiao was weak, staggered two steps, and almost fell, but it did not affect his angry momentum, he pointed at Mao Husheng with his halberd, and said sharply: "The battle has come to this, you don't want to fight in one go, and pull out Chengdu, but you want to divide the troops and return to Peng Mo?" Let me ask you, how many soldiers and horses do you want to send to Peng Mo? Less, not enough; There are too many, how can Ming Gong fight Chengdu?

"According to your suggestion, there can only be one ending: not only Peng Mo is not saved, but Chengdu will not be able to be defeated! At that time, our army has a strong city in front of it, it has lost its baggage, there is no way to retreat, and there are prisoners of Zan Ding and other troops on the flanks to attack, waiting for our army, except for the annihilation of the whole army, what else can it be? ”

Yuan Ziqiao said firmly to Huan Meng: "Duke Ming, at this time, there is no advance or retreat!" ”

During the previous military discussion, Mao Husheng and Yuan Ziqiao had different opinions, and in order to take care of Mao Husheng's face, Huan Meng adopted a tactful way to express his support for Yuan Ziqiao's views.

Now, Peng Mo is surrounded, as Mao Husheng said, "the matter is dangerous", in order to calm the army's heart, Huan Meng can't, and he doesn't want to still adopt a tactful attitude.

He didn't look at Mao Husheng, nor did he look at Yuan Ziqiao, with a scarf and crane, sitting on a horse, his expression remained unchanged, the whip pointed forward, and said briefly: "Tomorrow's morning will eclipse Chengdu!" ”
