Early 192 A.D.

Following the defeat of Liu Biaojun's return,

The war in the north is making waves again.

Yan Liangwen and Chou defeated Cao Jun,

regain a lot of lost ground,

After the Cao army merged several troops and horses,

Fang Kankan can stand firm.

and Yan Liangwen and Chou fought in Hedong County.

Although Yan Liangwen and the ugly two are brave and unmatched,

But the Cao Jun Xiahou brothers also have the courage of ten thousand people.

Although slightly inferior,

But it also made it difficult for Yan Liangwen and Chou to advance.

Lü Bu's army waited for an opportunity to attack the rear of Yuan Shao's army,

Within a few days, nearly ten county towns were captured.

Almost half of Hedong fell to Lü Bu's army Zheng

After Lü Bu captured Hedong,

On the book to the imperial court, the famous scholar Xun Yu of Yingchuan is the general of the farmer,

Guarding the east of the river and responsible for all matters in the east of the river.

This pawn farmer will be the general,

It was placed by Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms period,

There are two positions: the general of the farmer and the captain of the farmer.

Divided into the area of Tuntian,

in charge of agricultural production, civil administration, and land rent,

The powers are as good as the Taishou of the Han Dynasty.

Lü Bu had previously allied with Cao Cao,

At the expense of Hanoi and Henan Yin counties, among the four counties of Sili,

In exchange for Cao Cao's troops to contain Yuan Shao.

Cao Cao gladly agreed,

Only then will the general be sent to attack Yuan Shao's army at a critical moment.

Now Lu Bu occupies Hedong County, Zhi'an Yi County,

and most of the east of the river,

Immediately set up the pawn farmer in the middle of the general,

It is to occupy a dominant position here on a political level.

Although the foundation of the Xun family is in Yingchuan,

But as one of the largest family gate valves in the late Eastern Han Dynasty,

The Xun family also has a lot of contacts in this division.

So that Xun Yu can also stabilize the situation here as soon as possible,

Coupled with Xun You's own ability,

is also fully worthy of this position,

and then be able to inspire others under Lu Bu's command,

As long as you do it well,

can win a good future.

In addition, Lu Bu issued a number of appointments at the same time,

Xu Huang was appointed as a lieutenant of the Tun Cavalry,

Zhang He was appointed as a captain of the Yue Cavalry,

The Tun Cavalry Captain and the Yue Cavalry Captain both belong to the five captains of the Northern Army.

Subordinate to the Central Army,

The elite troops belonging to the imperial court in the Eastern Han Dynasty,

Therefore, although this position is a captain,

But its authority and importance,

It's even bigger than some of the miscellaneous generals.

Xu Huang and Zhang He have been stationed in Wuguan and Tongguan for a long time.

The military achievements are great, so Lu Bu was so appointed,

No one jumped out against it,

When the other generals heard the news,

All in high spirits,

Although Lu Bu is now powerful,

But for those who follow him,

There really hasn't been a reward appointment,

Although no one has brought it up,

But that doesn't mean that no one cares about it,

The big husband is fearless in life and death and bravely kills the enemy,

In order to be able to make meritorious contributions and glorify the lintel,

Therefore, after Lu Bu began to formally appoint officials,

Immediately made everyone excited.

Xu Huang and Zhang He also worked harder for this,

Yuan Shaojun, who was killed, lost his armor and abandoned his armor.

Zhang He of the Northern Route Army took the lead in capturing Kei Pass,

At this point, the entire territory of Hedong was completely occupied by Lu Bu's army.

Lu Bu personally ascended to the head of the city of Jiguan,

Reward the soldiers of the three armies,

At the same time trimming in the cluster,

As soon as this news came out,

Immediately caused a concussion of the next person,

I didn't expect Lu Bujun's counterattack to be so swift and fierce,

In less than ten days,

unexpectedly recovered the whole territory of Hedong,

At the same time, Hongnong also had several county towns taken by the army led by Xu Huang.

It's just that at this time, Xu Huang slowed down the pace of his march.

The world speculates that it is due to the Hangu Pass in front of him,

made Xu Huang dare not enter easily.

After receiving the news, Cao Jun also came to the spirit,

Although it is difficult to resist Yan Liangwen's fierce attack,

But with the change of ingenuity,

Holding Yuan Shaojun's nose,

made Yan Liangwen and ugly two thunderous, but helpless.

Hangu Pass.

According to the plateau in the west, the river in the east,

It is connected to the Qinling Mountains in the south and the Yellow River in the north.

It is the earliest Xiongguan fortress built in China.

In ancient times, in the middle of the old road from Luoyang to Xi'an, the section from Kunshan to Tongguan,

Mostly in the valley, deep danger such as Han, the ancient name of Han Valley.

Founded in the Western Zhou Dynasty,

It is the throat of Luoyang in the east and Chang'an in the west,

Suying opened the letter to the valley in the Zhuang Pass, and the valley was shocked to the north sky",

"Twin peaks towering beside the river, a battlefield in the valley since ancient times",

Since ancient times, it has been a battleground for soldiers.

During the Warring States period, Qin Xiaogong seized the land of Cuihan from the Wei State,

Set up Hanya Pass here.

This pass is 7.5 kilometers long from east to west,

The ancient road is only allowed to pass by one car,

Suying is a husband, and ten thousand people are not open".

Zhou Shenliang King for three years,

King Chu Huai raised the army of the six kingdoms to attack Qin,

Qin Yihan Valley Insurance,

The armies of the six countries were "ambushed by millions of corpses, bleeding and drifting".

In the sixth year of Qin Shi Huang,

The armies of Chu, Zhao, Wei and other five countries committed Qin,

"To Hangu, they are all defeated".

"Liu Bang guards the pass and rejects Xiang Yu",

The "Taolin War" between the Tang Army and the rebels in the "Anshi Rebellion",

In 1944, the "Battle of Hangu Pass" between the Chinese army and the Japanese invading army,

It's all going on here.

Guguan Guancheng is an irregular rectangle,

It is made of long, round, and flat ramming.

The eastern wall is 1,800 meters long,

The west wall is 1,300 meters long,

The southern wall is more than 180 meters long.

In a world of snow,

Only the cold north wind kept howling,

Will be the breath of cold,

Sent to every corner of this land.

Zhou Cang let out a heavy sigh,

It's interesting to look at the white mist that has formed,

Behind him,

It's thousands of soldiers dressed in white coats,

Sit around the col and warm yourself by a fire.

In front of the hillside on which he stood,

You can see the whole picture of the desolate and majestic Hangu Pass.

Liao Hua standing beside him,

Looking at Zhou Cang's smirkling appearance,

I couldn't help but let out a wry smile.

"Yuanfu."

Zhou Cang followed the prestige,

Lowered his voice and said to Liao Hua:

"Yuan Jian, look at it, if you are angry like this, you can change different shapes."

"Yuan Fumo is playing, we still have business."

Liao Hua was helpless, so he could only say with a straight face.

Seeing Liao Hua's face,

Zhou Cang had no choice but to say 'oh',

Not a joke.

Liao Hua said:

"Our wolf warrior special forces haven't been dispatched for a long time, this time the lord ordered us to come to attack Hangu Pass, but it is a test for us, we must not mess up."

Zhou Cang scratched his head and said:

"I know, I know, my ears are almost calloused along the way."

Liao Hua listened to Zhou Cang's words,

I know that he didn't go to his heart,

Immediately, his eyes widened, and he scolded in a low voice:

"Zhou Cang, don't joke with me, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless."

Seeing Liao Hua seemed to be really angry,

Zhou Cang said seriously:

"I see."

Liao Hua glared at Zhou Cang again warningly,

Then he lay down on the ground and said no more,

Zhou Cangsheng opened his mouth and asked:

"Yuan Jian, is this Hanguguan so powerful? The lord not only asked us to come to take the pass, but even let the secret guards also send out. Aren't there only more than 10,000 horses in the Hangu Pass? ”

Liao Hua glanced at Zhou Cang angrily,

Patience explains:

"Hangu Pass is the first male pass, 'a husband when the pass is not open', you can also see the terrain here, both sides are high mountains and steep cliffs, only the middle narrow mountain road, then Hangu Pass is in the mountain road Zheng Bei has more than 10,000 horses, even if there are only thousands of people and horses stationed, there are more than 100,000 people don't want to pass easily."

"Is it really that powerful?"

Zhou Cang raised his head and looked at the majestic pass in the distance,

I couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"It's nature. Although Yan Liangwen and Chou went to Henan Yin to fight against Cao's army, they still ordered Jiang Qi to lead more than 10,000 elite soldiers to garrison the cluster. It is because the cluster is very important, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as it can hold here, our army will not be able to go to Henan to support Cao's army, and Yuan Shaojun will have no worries. If Jiang Qi can't support it, he can send a messenger, and Yan Liang and the others will quickly come to the rescue. Therefore, the lord did not order General Xu Huang to lead the army here, but ordered us and the secret guards to cooperate with each other to seize this Hangu Pass. ”

After Liao Hua explained in detail,

Zhou Cang was a little stunned.

The dark guard is one of the troops formed after the expansion of the dark group.

In the past, there were a total of twelve people in the dark group,

Take the stem as the number,

After Lu Budejiaxu,

re-assembling the intelligence network,

Entrust the dark group to Jia Xu.

Jia Xu made it train two troops,

One of them is a dark guard,

500 in all,

All proficient in assassination, lurking, poisoning, and other techniques,

On weekdays, I am responsible for some very special work.

Or to protect some people with special status.

As for the twelve people in the original dark group,

Now all of them are guarded by several husbands,

At the same time, he also serves as Jia Xu's deputy.

The other unit is called the Shadows,

As the name suggests, this force is all spies,

They are numerous,

In addition to Jia Xu, the specific number of personnel,

No one can understand,

Extremely wide range of distribution,

And it is still radiating and infiltrating outward at a shocking speed,

Their identities are also diverse.

may be noble as a member of the party;

Or maybe it's just a homeless man begging on the side of the road;

It may also be the second shop in a hurry in the wine store;

It may even be the sister and lady in the courtyard of the deep house.

It is precisely because of this secret intelligence system that

Far more than all the other princes,

Only then can the state grasp the opportunity.

Especially those areas that Jia Xu focuses on,

The wind and grass in it can't hide from him.

Zhou Cang pinched the snow on the ground,

Rub it into a ball and throw it into your mouth,

"Now that they are in the dark group, they are also mixed up, and there are almost tens of thousands of people in the dark."

"Silence!"

Zhou Cang raised his head and looked around,

Only then did he whisper:

"Hey, hey, hey, we're not outsiders."

"You stupid big man, no matter how much nonsense you talk about, I can't save you if something happens."

Zhou Cang hurriedly changed the topic and said:

"Hehe, don't you envy them for commanding so many people?"

Liao Hua glanced at Zhou Cang and said:

"Then I'll tell the lord and transfer you over."

Zhou Cang was stunned when he heard this,

Immediately the big head shook like a rattle,

muttered in a low voice:

"If you let me be so stuffy, it's better to kill me with a knife. It's still fun to bring the soldiers out to fight. I hope to come out more in the future. ”

Liao Huawan smiled,

Stretched out his hand and patted Zhou Cang's broad shoulder and said:

"Yuanfu, this time the dark guard is led by the dark son himself, we have to perform well, complete this mission well, we can't embarrass our wolf warriors, I believe we will have more tasks in the future."

Zhou Cang couldn't help but smirk when he heard this,

Emphasis on the odds.

Looking up at the color,

Now the time has passed,

The sun is slowly turning westward,

It won't be long before

The color will be completely darkened,

They're going to get ready to go.

beckoned,

The two men walked slowly down the hill.

Hangu is closed, and the flag is displayed,

Yuan Shaojun's big sword hunted in the wind,

A military general wearing dark armor stood at the head of the city and looked into the distance,

"General, it's windy in the city, so it's better to go back and rest early."

A school next to him whispered.

Jiang Qi frowned,

looked at the famous school with some displeasure on his face,

"I am anxious for the Lord and stationed in the cluster, and I am diligent day and night, and I dare not be negligent in the slightest, how can I covet enjoyment? The soldiers are starving and freezing here, how can I bear to abandon them? ”

Jiang Qi's voice fell,

The soldiers beside him,

His face was really moved.

After the school secretly glanced around with his peripheral vision,

Honestly fearful:

"People deserve to die, the general's loyalty and courage are really an example of Rao. People just think that for the sake of the lord, the general should pay more attention to his body, so that he can fight bravely on the battlefield and serve the lord. ”

Jiang Qi rubbed his short beard and nodded,

Shi Shiran turned around and walked down the city.

Not long after the two of them walked down the city,

The guards immediately began to whisper,

Many people praised Jiang Qi for his diligence and competence,

At this time, the two elderly soldiers next to him sneered,

And the people came by the prestige,

A young soldier asked:

"Lao Li, Lao Wang, what do you mean by laughing?"

The two soldiers glanced at each other,

One of the soldiers spoke:

"Recruits, Lao Tzu laughs at you too seriously, Jiang Yiqu is notoriously lazy, if he wasn't loyal to Yuan Gong, he wouldn't have been able to garrison this Hangu Pass."

The young soldiers looked at each other,

One of them was unconvinced:

"But in the past few days, the general has inspected ...... every day."

", didn't he just come over for a spin. Do you think he stayed more than a stick of incense? ”

The old man interrupted him.

The other soldiers thought about it carefully,

Sure enough, like this old pawn,

Now gather around the two of them,

He asked in a rambling manner.

After Jiang Qi walked down the city,

And the two of them immediately rode fast horses,

and went to their dwellings in the city.

As a key pass with a long history, Hangu Pass,

It has all the facilities,

The government office is built quite imposingly,

After a short time, the two came to Zheng in the back house of the official office

The school neatly stirred the brazier in the house twice,

Make the flame a little more vigorous,

"General, warm up, it's too cold outside."

"Alas, this Lu Bu and Cao Cao, who don't know what kind of illness they are committing, actually sent troops at such a time."

Jiang Qi rubbed his hands and said hatefully.

The school hurriedly came,

Take over Jiang Qi's body,

Flatteringly, he said:

"Don't be angry about this, general. Even if they really came, with this Hanguguan, they couldn't help it. ”

Jiang Qi smiled smugly:

"That's nature, throughout the ages, the person who can break through this Hangu Pass is only that Kuang Zhang."

"Yes, yes, there are still generals stationed here, even if they can have an army of 100,000, they will return with a feather."

"Hahaha!"

Hearing the flattery of his men,

Jiang Qi was very happy.

"General, I have found a few women for you today, they are very beautiful, it is better to ......"
