Chapter 185 Soldiers Coming to Hangu Pass
Recommended reading: Guanzhong Plain, the land is fertile, the rivers are vertical and horizontal, the terrain is even more unique, there is Hangu Pass in the east, there is Wuguan in the south, there is Dasanguan in the west, and there is Xiaoguan in the north, so it is also called 'the country of four stops';
At that time, the Qin people took this place as the foundation, cultivated and recuperated, strengthened their strength, and finally marched eastward and annexed the six countries of Kwantung in one fell swoop; Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, also borrowed Han Xin's strategy of 'repairing the plank road in the Ming Dynasty and secretly crossing Chencang', and took the land in Guanzhong in one fell swoop, and took this as the foundation, step by step, defeated the 'overlord' Xiang Yu, and created the foundation of the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years!
For hundreds of years, there has been a saying in the world, "Guanzhong, the mountains and rivers lock the key, the dragon qi is coiled, and those who get it can win the world!" ”
At the beginning, Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an, because he took a fancy to the natural danger and wealth in Guanzhong, and wanted to take this as the foundation and fight for the world with the princes from all walks of life!
It's a pity that whether it is Dong Zhuo in front of him, or Li Dao and Guo Yan in his followers, these Xiliang warlords only know how to destroy, they don't know how to operate, wantonly burn and kill, plunder the people, lose the hearts of the people, and ruin a good piece of Guanzhong land, which is not the same!
After taking the stage to pay homage to the general, Xiao Yi commanded the army all the way west, and the states and counties along the way saw the banner of 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang', all of them fell in anticipation of the wind, and advanced to Hangu Pass very smoothly!
Hangu Pass, also known as 'the world's first Xiongguan', is the gateway of the Guanzhong Plain in the east, it is close to the Qinling Mountains in the south, the Yellow River in the north, and it is just built on the main road in the valley, it can be said that it is a husband when the pass, ten thousand people do not open!
In the face of such a dangerous pass, Xiao Yi naturally would not be stupid and bumped into it, he stationed the army fifty miles away, Ma Liu temporarily sat in the Chinese army, and he brought a small team of men and horses, sneaked to a high post outside the pass, observed the situation, and accompanied by the three brothers of the Cao family, they are now inseparable from Xiao Yi!
Xiao Yi sat on a boulder, his hands on the pergola, and was carefully watching the situation on the opposite side, only to see the soldiers on Hangu Pass running back and forth, like a group of busy ants, busy strengthening the fortifications, carrying arrows, stones, boiling oil, and falling wood ...... to prepare for the upcoming battle!
There is a big banner with the word 'cow' in the middle of the city pass, according to the report of the reconnaissance rangers, the main general who is responsible for garrisoning Hangu Pass is named Niu Fu, and in addition, he also has an identity - Dong Zhuo's son-in-law!
Niu Fu is also a fierce general in the Xiliang army, with a pair of Qimen weapons in his hands - 'cooked copper doll lance', and his arms have hundreds of catties of strength; after Dong Zhuo's death, he also did his best to attack Chang'an with Li Dao, Guo Yan and others, and later the Xiliang generals were not in harmony, so he was sent here to garrison, belonging to the kind of grandma does not hurt, uncle does not love the role!
"Xiongguan is dangerous, unique, and there are no loopholes!" Looking at the Xiongguan in front of him, Xiao Yi couldn't help but gasp, as far as the city defense facilities are concerned, Hangu Pass can be called perfect and indestructible, no wonder the six countries and millions of coalition forces attacked Qin several times, and they were all killed under this Xiongguan 'millions of corpses, blood drifting pestle', it can be said that the Qin people can dominate the world, this Xiongguan is a great contribution!
However, no matter how dangerous Xiongguan is, it will inevitably fall, although there are no loopholes in the city defense, but there are people in the heart!
Xiao Yi silently deduced the plan to break the city in his heart, and the three brothers of the Cao family stood obediently on the side, more honest than a kitten, so that it was not that Xiao Yi didn't let them sit down, but that this brother couldn't sit down at all, and his butt hurt!
Recently, the Cao brothers have been miserable, not to mention marching hard with the soldiers every day, but also living in tents, eating military rations, practicing martial arts, and learning military books and strategies, Xiao Yi is completely training them in accordance with the model of military training for later students, and it is more strict, as long as there is a slight mistake, the small whip in his hand will fly!
Cao Pi complained about the poor food of the army, spoiled a small half bowl of corn, and as a result, he was severely whipped five times on the buttocks, and was punished for gnawing a stack of dry and hard coarse grain cakes in public.
After this lesson, now Cao Ergongzi is gobbling up whatever he eats, and even the coarse and throat-scratching millet rice can eat three bowls in one meal!
Cao Zhi is a good child, smart and clever, and very obedient, but unfortunately he has lazy bones and likes to sleep, but he was late for training in the morning, and was directly taken out of the bed by Xiao Yi.
Compared with the other two brothers, Cao Zhang was born to be a soldier, he can eat and sleep every day, he is energetic, and he does not have any discomfort about life in the barracks, but the problem is that this third son Cao is too energetic and always causes trouble!
It is said that Cao Zhang has had a crazy fascination with war horses since he learned to ride, and the faster the horse and the more fierce the horse, the more he likes it, challenging around the barracks all day long, and taking pleasure in galloping!
As a result, playing around, this guy actually aimed at the head of the 'cabbage', because the fastest runner in the barracks, and the worst temper, is this uncle, and then Cao Zhangxing rushed forward to challenge, wanting to try the speed of the sweaty BMW, but was kicked out by the 'cabbage' hooves, if it weren't for the guards' quick reaction, took a handful, and almost killed him, and finally he was whipped ten times!
After such a repair, the three brothers of the Cao family can be said to have been reborn, the appearance of the original noble son is gone, the little face is dark and shiny, calluses appear on the hands, the strength has increased greatly, and the half-baked big stick bones can go down in a few bites, and get rid of a group of little wolf cubs; It has completely transformed from 'domestic mode' to 'wild state', and if this is brought back, even Cao Cao will be surprised!
Xiao Yi is very satisfied with this, the son of a traitorous male, how can he do it without a little wildness, 'It is better to have a son like a sheep, than to have a son like a wolf!' ’
"Boys, if you are the commander of a large army, how can you take it down in the face of such a majestic danger?" Xiao Yi pointed at the Hangu Pass in front of him with a whip, and gave the three brothers of the Cao family a problem!
"This ...... Is it? "The brothers of the Cao family looked at each other, such a majestic pass, such a terrain, even a million troops are difficult to capture, let them find a way, how easy it is to say!
Besides, they don't dare to talk nonsense, don't forget, that tiger bone whip is still hanging above their heads, and it may fall on their butts at any time!
"Don't worry, go back and think about it, and tell me your answer early tomorrow morning!" Xiao Yi stood up and patted the three brothers on the shoulder, "Remember, you are not allowed to consult with each other, let alone ask others, you must come up with a way to break the test alone, whose strategy is feasible and rewarded, if anyone hands in a blank paper, hehe, I can be severely punished!" ”
"No!" The three brothers of the Cao family were so frightened that they broke out in a cold sweat, and when they looked at Hanguguan again, it was like facing a piece of raw and hard cake, knowing that it was not delicious, but they had to eat it alive or dead!
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Hangu Pass, the guard general Niu Fu is full of sadness, since he learned that Xiao Yi commanded the army to the west, he has not slept peacefully for several nights, he knows the skills of 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang', when the 'Tiger Prison Pass' battle, he was beside Dong Zhuo, and he saw the tragic battle clearly, even the 'Tiger Dove' Lu Bu suffered a big loss, how could he be someone's opponent!
Therefore, while Niu Fu mobilized troops and stepped up the construction of fortifications, Pegasus reported to Chang'an and asked Li Dao and Guo Yan for reinforcements!
"Hu Chi'er!"
"The last general!"
With the words, a burly general, with a high nose, deep eyes, and curly hair, ran over, it was Niu Fu's henchman - Hu Chi'er!
Hu Chi'er was originally a Qiang man from Xiliang, born as a horse thief in the desert, so that he had a good knife technique, practiced a good riding skill, was brave and good at fighting, and was very clever, and later invested in Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army, and was favored by Niu Fu, accepted as a subordinate, and has always been regarded as a confidant!
"What's the news of the reinforcements from Chang'an?"
"Back to General, not yet!"
"Bastard, are the two bastards Li Dao and Guo Yan going to die and not save them?" Niu Fu pointed to the direction of Chang'an is scolding, when the Taishi Dong Zhuo was there, everyone complimented him, but now that people are dead, not only squeezing him out to this poor place, but also the danger of taking the knife for others!
"The general is angry!" Hu Chi'er hurriedly persuaded on the side, "A few days ago, the two generals Li and Guo went to pursue the little emperor, but they collided head-on with the 'ghost-faced Xiao Lang', and they were defeated, even the two nephews of General Guo Yan were beheaded, and the soldiers and horses were damaged countless times, it is estimated that they have to cultivate and rectify in Chang'an City before they can send troops to fight again!" ”
"Humph! …… When they are finished, the general's bones are estimated to have been fed to the crows, and then Pegasus will urge them, and tell Li Dao and Guo Yan that if they don't send reinforcements again, Lao Tzu will let the letter to Guguan and let Xiao Yi in, and everyone will be finished together! ”
"No! …… The little one will send another messenger at once! ”
"Ghost-faced Xiao Lang, the deadly ancestor!" Niu Fu turned around in place a few times, but there was still nothing to do, it really didn't work, Lao Tzu went back to Xiliang, being a horse thief is better than giving his life!
