(Recommended reading: At dawn, the war on Hangu Pass finally slowly subsided, tens of thousands of Cao soldiers in the sky full of 'flying lights' protection, really like divine help, in one fell swoop to conquer this Xiongguan, 30,000 Xiliang soldiers, or die, or surrender, the whole army was annihilated, the guard general Niu Fu saw that the general trend had gone, and fled with his henchman Hu Chi'er, and disappeared in the chaos, so far, the gate of the Guanzhong Plain was kicked open by Xiao Yi!

"Metropolitan Governor - Wan Sheng!"

"Metropolitan Governor - Wan Sheng!"

When Xiao Yi's war horse stepped into the gate of Hangu Pass, on the city tower and the side of the road, there were cheers everywhere, and the soldiers frantically beat the shield with their weapons, and knocked on the armor without a shield to express their inner excitement.

The generals in the battalion were even more convinced, and the soldiers might regard last night's victory as a divine blessing, but they, the people who personally executed it, deeply understood that there was no divine blessing in all this, only human schemes, which were comparable to the human schemes of the 'power of gods and demons'!

And the one who created this miracle was 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang' - Xiao Yat!

"See the Grand Duke!

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun half-knelt in front of Xiao Yima, offering their heartfelt admiration, last night they led two thousand light soldiers to be responsible for snatching the city gate, to be honest, the two of them were apprehensive in their hearts, with such a small number of troops to seize the gate of Hangu Pass, almost no different from sending them to death, they even suspected that Xiao Yi was sincere to let the two of them go to death, after all, it was a bad thing on the battlefield......

Who knows, in the middle of the night, the sky rained demon lanterns, tens of thousands of Xiliang troops were in chaos without a fight, and when they rushed up with two thousand soldiers with 'grimaces', no one dared to come forward to fight, they all thought that the heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals had descended to earth!

As a result, the city gate of Hangu Pass was taken in one go, opening the passage for the army to enter the city, according to the rules of the army, 'the first to ascend is the first merit', that is to say, on the military merit report sent to Luoyang, the names of Zhang Liao and Gao Shun will be written in the front, this glory, for the two generals who are eager to prove themselves, ten thousand dollars will not be changed!

"Hurry up, please get up, both of you are warriors who fought bloodily, how can your kneecaps be easily softened!" Xiao Yi hurriedly jumped off the horse and helped the two of them up, "Hangu Pass is just a road head, Chang'an City is a big meal, and I hope that the two generals will move forward bravely and make great contributions!" ”

"I am willing to serve the death force of the Metropolitan Governor!" Zhang Liao and Gao Shun beat their chests with their fists and gave a deep salute!

That night, Xiao Yi ordered to reward the three armies, all the soldiers had enough wine and meat, and the meritorious ones had another heavy reward, or added officials to knighthood, or rewarded gold and silver, all of them were very happy, and at the same time, they quickly presented their victory to Luoyang, and told Cao Cao the news of taking Hangu Pass!

Hangu Guan, the original Niu Fu's general's mansion, now naturally occupied by Xiao Yi and others, a group of generals and officials are here to celebrate, at the banquet, everyone pushes the glass and changes the lamp, in order to get this big victory and celebrate, even the three brothers of the Cao family have made an exception to get the opportunity to drink, a few glasses of wine, the three little faces have become red and drunk, very cute!

During the banquet, in addition to celebrating, everyone naturally discussed the next step, the gate of Guanzhong has been opened, and it is imperative to march into Chang'an, but before that, there is one more thing to deal with, that is, who will guard this Xiongguan that has just been taken!

The terrain in the pass is dangerous, the river is vertical and horizontal, it is difficult to enter, and it is even more difficult to exit, so Hangu Pass is not only the gate to march, but also the only way to retreat, which can be said to be the lifeblood of tens of thousands of troops!

When it comes to Hangu Pass, there is a famous saying that can't help but float to everyone's hearts, "According to the pass, don't accept the princes, then Qin can be the king!" ”

This is the idea of Han Gaozu - Liu Bang when he first entered the Guanzhong, he fell in love with this treasure land at a glance, sealed the Hangu Pass, and did not let the armies of other princes enter, and he could be the king and hegemon in Qin, how free!

It's a pity that he met the overlord Xiang Yu, this dream could not be realized, and he ran to Hongmen to make amends in fear, and almost took his life!

Now it is also a situation where the princes are competing for hegemony, and when it comes to military talent, Xiao Yi is definitely far above Liu Bang's scoundrel, even compared to the 'immortal of the soldiers' Han Xinlai, I'm afraid it is not much inferior, if he has that ambition, it is not impossible to send a confidant general to guard Hangu Pass, and then pacify the land in the pass and establish himself as the king!

Take advantage of the chaos in the world, occupy Guanzhong, and then swallow Bashu in the south and take the Hetao in the north, just like the current Qin people, overlooking the situation in the world, and when the princes of the eastern part of the country are exhausted, they will wave their troops to the east and dominate the world!

Such a plan will definitely work, and with Xiao Yat's talent, it will definitely work!

Thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, the supreme throne, who is not tempted?

Thinking of this layer, all the generals present were drenched in cold sweat, especially Cao Xiu, who was already like ashes, just now he quickly calculated, among the generals, Da Niu, Ma Liu, and Dian Wei are all Xiao Yi's sworn friends, even if they rebel and kill the emperor, they will also follow the black one road!

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun are from generals, their positions are undecided, they have just received Xiao Yi's favor, and they will not oppose it, as well as Yu Ban, this guy has two battles in command, but he lacks a little backbone for people, and when he really wants to face a life-and-death decision, it is estimated that he will also compromise, so calculated, he will really rise up to resist, or he will really be disposed of, only himself!

"General Wen Lie, why are you suddenly sweating like rain?" Xiao Yi played with the wine glass in his hand and asked Cao Xiu with a smile, what everyone thought in their hearts, how could he not know that these dark things, instead of hiding them in his heart, it was better to find out directly?

The one who wants the same wins! He didn't want to lead a suspicious army into battle?

That's self-defeating!

"The last general is ......, and the last general is not strong enough to drink, which makes the metropolitan governor smile!" Cao Xiu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and set his eyes on the three brothers Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhi.

The atmosphere at the banquet suddenly became tense, and the generals passed each other's eyes, with precautions, vigilance, and even killing intent!

Da Niu and Ma Liu glanced at each other, and at the same time touched the hilt of the sword on their waists, brothers in life and death for many years, their position is very clear, as long as Xiao Yi has a little bit of meaning in that regard, they will immediately draw their swords and kill those opponents!

At the same time, Xiao Bin, the Chinese officer in charge of the big tent guard, also secretly stepped behind Cao Xiu, he had already thought about it, as soon as the wine glass in the hand of his own governor landed, he immediately pulled out his knife and cut Cao Xiu's head, without hesitation!

Kill the opponents, with Xiao Yi's prestige and ability, you can easily control the army, and when the time comes, whether you will be the king or the hegemon, it will all be in one thought!

Quiet! Surprisingly quiet!

Everyone's eyes are on the handsome position, rise and fall, honor and disgrace, life and death, and the whole screen is decided by one person!

"Hah! …… Ha ha! Xiao Yi was half-lying on his handsome position, his eyes were slightly closed, and the little black face showed an expression that seemed to be smiling, and he kept playing with the wine glass in his hand, for a long time, he suddenly let out a crazy laugh!

"Listen, everyone, in today's world, the one who can sweep away the heroes and dominate the world is none other than Cao Gong!"

"Regardless of the level of the family, the only one who can fight for the children of the poor family in the world is none other than Cao Gong!"

"Come, generals, congratulations to Cao Gong! Congratulations to the world! ”

Xiao Yi raised the wine glass in his hand high, and clearly stated his mind and position, "Brother is the Cao family!" ”

"Congratulations to Cao Gong!"

"Congratulations to the Metropolitan Governor!"

After a glass of wine, everyone's hanging hearts finally let go, and the worries did not happen, fortunately! Thankfully!

"General Wen Lie listens to orders!" Xiao Yi just put down the wine glass in his hand and immediately took out a token from his arms!

"The last general!" Hearing the order, Cao Xiu hurriedly stepped forward to salute and wait!

"The governor of Pontus will give you 5,000 men and horses, and then select 5,000 strong men from the Xiliang prisoners of war, adopt them for use, and appoint you as the chief general of Hangu Pass, and guard the lifeblood of tens of thousands of brothers, there must be no mistake!"

"Huh? …… The last will obey! Cao Xiu was startled at first, then stepped forward, took the token with trembling hands, and then knelt down on his knees and bowed to the shrine! Please rest assured, as long as I have Cao Xiu's three inches of air, Hangu Pass is foolproof! ”

As soon as the order was issued, the dark clouds in the sky finally dispersed, and Cao Xiu was appointed as the guard of Hangu Pass, which is more effective than saying 10,000 heroic words, Xiao Lang is loyal and righteous, unparalleled in the world!

At the same time, everyone also admired Cao Cao even more, no wonder the lord dared to entrust his three sons at one time, this vision of knowing people is also unparalleled in the world!

The next banquet immediately burst into joy, there was no barrier between the generals, everyone raised their glasses and drank, especially Cao Xiu, who drank two large jars of spirits in a row, and returned drunk!

The next day, after waking up, he immediately announced, "From now on, I will not drink a drop of alcohol, go all out, stick to Hangu Pass, and never fail to live up to the trust of the Metropolitan Governor!" ”
