Chapter 40 Jia Wen and Zhiding Chang'an Guo Fengxiao Miaoqiao takes Xiliang
said that Ma Chao saw that Pang De couldn't fight well, so he rushed out. www.biquge.info Seeing that Ma Chao was menacing, Dian Wei hurriedly abandoned Pang De and caught Ma Chao to fight. The two fought for a long time without distinguishing between victory and defeat, and they were surprised by each other. At this time, Cao Cao had taken the opportunity to drive his soldiers and horses out of the city. Cao Cao stepped out and shouted: "Rest less!" Ma Chao and Dian Wei then put away their guns and separated for the time being. Cao Cao shouted out of his horse and said: "Ma Teng, Han Sui, and Zhang Ji have fornicated with Huang Kui to rebel, and I have punished him, and the rest will not ask about their crimes." You are not willing to defend the homeland, but you are fighting, and you want to be the same crime as Ma Teng? Ma Chao didn't move when he heard this, and Zhang Xiu and Yan Xing were also furious when they heard it, and they wanted to come forward to fight. Ma Chao hurriedly stopped the two and whispered: "Don't be impatient, you can tempt Cao Cao again, and then fight." Ma Chao then returned to the battle, put the gun to the left, and the sergeants on the left shouted in unison, wanting to push Cao Cao's wife. Although Cao Cao was angry, he was restrained. Ma Chao pointed the gun to the right again, and the sergeants on the right shouted in unison, wanting to push Cao Cao's concubine. Cao Cao couldn't bear it anymore after all, and personally led the army to rush out. Dian Wei saw Cao Cao personally out of the battle, and hurriedly horses to protect his left and right. The two armies met and fought for a few days, and Ma Chao's army retreated in three ways. Cao Cao only chased for more than ten miles, suddenly stopped the army, and laughed and said: "I almost fell into the horse's plan." How can such a ridiculous scheme be concealed from me? "Hurriedly told the sergeant to back off. Seeing that Cao Jun was not chasing, Ma Chao also stopped his horse and ordered the sergeant to scold again. But it doesn't work. Ma Chao hurriedly beckoned the left and right armies, turned around and rushed to kill Cao's army. The two armies fought a melee, and they did not collect their troops until late, all because Cao Cao chased not far away, and the loss was not large, so he returned to Chang'an City and did not come out, only waiting for Ma to run out of food.
Ma Chao saw that it was difficult to lure Cao Cao out again, so he drove his troops to besiege the city. Cao Cao went to the city to guard. Chang'an is the place where the capital of the Western Han Dynasty was built, and the city is strong. The trenches were so deep that they could not be attacked in a hurry. It was besieged for ten days in a row, but it could not be breached. Jia Xu said: "The soil in Chang'an City is hard and alkaline, which is very unbearable to eat, and there is no firewood. Today, for ten days, the army and the people are famine. It's better to withdraw the troops for the time being, just like this, like this, Chang'an is at your fingertips. Ma Chao said: "This plan is wonderful! The "instant difference" order "The word flag was passed to all departments, and the army was withdrawn, and Ma Chao personally broke it. The horses of the various armies gradually retreated. When Cao Cao went to the city to see, the soldiers all retreated, and he was afraid that he had a plan; Call the counsellors to ask for advice. Cao Cao said: "The Xiliang army retreated after running out of food. Can I use soldiers? Xun Yu said: "I'm afraid it's Jia Xu's trick to lure the enemy again." Cao Cao said: "I also have this concern, and I suspect that it is his real food to withdraw from the army, so it is not a good opportunity to miss it." The two of them were hesitating. Xun You said: "Why don't you let people explore the truth first, and then make a conclusion." "Cao Cao is a sentinel detective, and if he went west, he was relieved. Guo Jia said: "Even so, the prime minister still needs to leave troops to defend Chang'an City. Cao Cao ran and ordered Zhong Xuan to leave 10,000 troops to defend Chang'an, and the rest went out of the city with the army to counterattack.
However, it is said that Cao Cao led a large army to counterattack the Xiliang army, and the army marched fifty miles, but there was no trace of the enemy. Cao Cao was puzzled, so he divided his troops and acted accordingly. Qin and Dian Wei, Cao Ren, Cao Hong and others led the cavalry first, and Xu Huang and others led the infantry to follow. Cao Cao and others rushed more than 30 miles to the south bank of the Weishui River, but there was still no trace of the Xiliang army. Cao Cao said: "Which one is Jia Xu singing?" Cao Ren said: "The cavalry of the Xiliang Army is the majority, and the army is fast, so it must have passed Weishui and retreated back to Huaili." It's better to cross the Weishui and then make a plan. Cao Cao said: "The army is more than 60 miles away from Chang'an, and if it is plotted by Jia Xu, the general trend will be over." Cao Ren said: "If there is really an ambush, moving forward is death, and returning to the army is also death, waiting for death, it is better to move forward together." Cao Cao ran and urged the army to wade across the river. The former military arrived on the north bank, and Ma Xiu and Ma Tie led the army to kill on the north bank. Cao Jun was unable to resist and was beheaded countless times. Those who did not make it to the north shore turned back and walked to the south shore. Fang to the north shore, the candidate, Cheng Yi two will be killed. Cao Jun was frightened and could not resist the enemy. Cao Cao said: "I fell for this little plan again." Dian Wei said: "Don't be depressed, let a certain fight to the death, or be able to break through." "Yan Dian Wei should be the first to kill, Cao Ren and Cao Hong protected Cao Cao and followed. Dian Wei was breaking through, and he was only five or six steps away. Dian Wei took out the halberd and threw it. Cheng Yi fell in response. Dian Wei took the double halberd in his hand and struck left and right. Cao Ren was behind Cao Cao, and suddenly saw the candidate coming, and Cao Ren hurriedly intercepted and killed. Before the triple, the candidate was selected under the horse. Cao Cao and the others killed the remnants of Xiliang and rushed to the rear team to turn Xu Huang's department.
But it was said that Xu Huang had Cao Cao's order to lead the army to follow. The infantry in the army is the majority, and the speed of movement is not fast. There were more than 20 miles, and suddenly Cao Cao ordered the troops to arrive. Xu Huang hurriedly asked what was the matter. The herald soldier cloud, the prime minister found out that Ma Chaojun was in Xianyang, and ordered the whole army to go to Xianyang. Xu Huang said: "Can there be a prime minister's token?" The herald said: "Go in a hurry, you haven't had time to get it!" Xu Huang said: "Who are you to soldier?" The herald said: "The prime minister's herald soldiers are all his own soldiers, and they never need to be soldiers under their tents, so why should the general ask this." Xu Huang no longer doubted it, and ordered the army to go north. Crossing the Weishui, safe and sound. Outside the city of Xianyang, I saw Cao Cao's banner on the city, Xu Huang thought that Cao Cao had arrived first, and he was surprised in his heart, and suddenly rode to the edge of the trench and shouted to open the city gate. The sergeant at the gate opened the gate in a hurry. Xu Huang and the others were about to enter the city, when they suddenly saw the flag on the city suddenly change, and the Xiliang military flag was erected. Tens of millions of arrows shot out above, and Xu Huang hurriedly drew his sword to block the arrows. For a time, the arrow fell into the moat and countless people died. A horse came out of the city. The first person is Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu didn't answer, danced the knife and slapped the horse, and took Xu Huang directly. Xu Huang took the mountain axe to meet the enemy. The two of them fought a big battle on the edge of the trench. There are 50 rounds of fighting, and there is no difference between victory and defeat. Xu Huang has a lot of soldiers and horses, and he has no fear, but Zhang Xiu relies on bows and arrows in the city for help; The two sides are evenly matched. Suddenly, there was a sound, and two Biao soldiers and horses came from outside the city, and Zhang Xiu's subordinates on the left were Lei Xu and Zhang Xian's two generals; On the right, Yan Xing's subordinates Zhang Heng and Yang Qiu are two generals. only killed Xu Huang's rear army. Zhang Xiu fought and said: "You have fallen for the plan of my Wen and the military advisor, and it is difficult to fly with wings!" Xu Huang looked back at it, and sure enough, he saw that there were Xiliang troops on all sides. Xu Huang expected that the enemy would not be able to defeat him, so he abandoned Zhang Xiu and fled. Zhang Xiu met with the four generals and chased after Xu Huang. Rushing to the edge of Weishui, Xu Huang ordered the sergeant to cross the river, and he personally broke off against Zhang Xiu. By the time the sergeants had all crossed the river, only one of them was left or right. Xu Huang danced the big axe to fight the five generals. Suddenly, there was a loud shout and slashed across the horse. Take advantage of this gap and turn around to cross the river. Xu Huang and the others fled not far south and were meeting Cao Cao's army. Cao Cao asked why this was so. Xu Huang said: "Zhang Xiu's pseudo-prime minister ordered me to be sent to Xianyang, and the ambush troops were exhausted, and we couldn't resist the enemy and were defeated to Weishui." Zhang Xiu chased after him, and I killed a general, so as to keep the remnants of the army here. Cao Cao said: "It's really a horse thief." Fortunately, there are two generals, Dian Wei and Xu Huang, otherwise our army will be destroyed. Suddenly, a soldier came to report, and Zhang Xiujun chased after him. Cao Cao said: "Zhang Xiu's thief is too much for me!" Then he ordered to open the formation, and when Zhang Xiu arrived, the three armies came out together, and Zhang Xiu was defeated.
Cao Cao retreated from Zhang Xiu's pursuit of the army, and Xu Huang said: "Has the prime minister ever seen Ma Chao and Yan Xingjun's horses?" Cao Cao said: "I have never seen it, and they are all fighting with its partial army." Before Xu Huang could speak, Cao Cao shouted: "It's not good, Chang'an City will be lost." "Rush to Chang'an. At the foot of Chang'an City, I saw the Xiliang army waiting outside the city. Ma Chao immediately stepped in front of the battle and laughed and said, "Prime Minister Cao, I've disappointed you." After saying that, the Hui army rushed to kill, and all the sergeants shouted in unison: "Capture Cao Cao alive." Cao Cao saw Ma Chao coming, and hurriedly called Xu Huang to meet the enemy. Xu Huang fought with Ma Chao, but in less than 30 rounds, he was defeated and left. Ma Chao saw where Cao Cao was, and hurriedly chased after him. Cao Cao left and right, Cao Ren and Cao Hong fought against Ma Chao. Ma Chao was full of spirits and rushed to fight the two. In fifty rounds, two more people were defeated. Ma Chao looked at Cao Cao's defeat and chased after him. Kill the enemy all the way, and there is no one under your hands. At this time, Cao Cao was being protected by Dian Wei and fled to Tongguan. Suddenly, seeing Ma Chao chasing after him again, Dian Wei urgently asked Cao Cao to take off his robe. Cao Cao took off his robe, but Dian Wei put it on himself, saying that Cao Cao said: "Ma Chao intends to be the prime minister, and I will put on the prime minister's robe to lead him away." Cao Cao was grateful and was urged forward by Dian Wei. But it was said that Dian Wei was wearing Cao Cao's robe and slowed down his horse's pace. Seeing Ma Chao catching up, he fled north. Ma Chao only knew that the robed man was Cao Cao, and struggled to catch up. After chasing for about forty or fifty miles, Dian Wei tore off his robe. When Ma Chao saw it, he knew that he had dropped the bag, so he hurriedly rode his horse back and went to find Cao Cao.
However, it was said that Cao Cao was defeated and fled, and met Cao Ren and others on the road, and there were still more than 10,000 people in the remnants of the army, and they went to Tongguan. To the foot of Weinan Hua Mountain, the mountain is treacherous and difficult to walk. Xu Huang said: "It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, and there are ambushes." "Before the words were spoken, the ambush soldiers in all directions really came out. Yan Xingting immediately rushed forward and said: "Cao thief, today is your end. "Then lead the troops to kill it. Cao Cao's generals have been defeated repeatedly, and they are already exhausted, how can they be enemies. was killed by Yan Xing for a while, and there were many dead and countless descendants. Cao Cao was wounded by a gunshot and fled. was stopped by more than a dozen sergeants, and the sergeants rushed to stab Cao Cao's horse to death. Cao Cao landed and was captured by military teachers and students. Suddenly, a man with a double halberd came from a distance, killed more than ten sergeants, and saved Cao Cao. Cao Cao regarded it as Dian Weiye. Cao Cao sighed: "If it weren't for the epidemic, I would have died several times." Dian Wei won the war horse, took Cao Cao on the horse, and hurried to Tongguan. Fang to Huayin, and another army arrived. Cao Cao said: "This is the death of heaven and my Cao Cao!" Dian Wei was about to step forward to fight to the death, but was shocked to find that it was his own military horse. Cao Cao regarded it as Zhong Xuan, who led the defeated army of Chang'an to flee here, and Guo Jia, Xun Yu and others were also in the army. Zhong Miao saw Cao Cao and hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty. Cao Cao said: "This is my Zhongjia Xu's treacherous plan, so there is such a defeat." Cao Cao asked Xun Yu how Chang'an City was lost. Xun Yu told Cao Cao about the affairs of Chang'an City one by one. It turned out that Ma Chao got Jia Xu's plan that day, and he pretended to retreat. But he secretly divided the army into three ways. Jia Xu expected that Cao Cao would not be able to pursue the enemy, and he would divide his troops, so he first transferred two armies to ambush on both sides of the Weishui, and waited for Cao's army to cross the Weishui and attack him. He also ordered Cao Jun to surrender and falsely pass Cao Cao's order and send the army to Xianyang. Ma Chao and Yan Xing waited for Cao Cao to chase after them, and when the residents in the city went out of the city to get water, they mixed into the city, opened the city gate, and rushed in to capture Chang'an City. Zhong Miao and the others opened the east gate and broke out. Ma Chao ordered Yan Xing to pursue again. Clinker Yan Xing couldn't wait to chase Zhong Xuan, but ambushed Cao Cao halfway. Cao Cao sighed: "Jia Xu's wisdom is really vicious. I thought it was a trick to lure the enemy, but I didn't want it to be a serial plan to draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle, move tigers and mountains, and kill them all. He laughed. Everyone didn't know what Cao Cao was laughing at, Cao Cao said: "I laugh at Jia Xu but underestimate the generals of our army, Dian Wei and Xu Huangye." Ma Chao ambushed and trapped me on both sides of the Weishui River, but was beheaded by Dian Wei and Cao Ren to break through. Zhang Xiuxianyang defeated Xu Huang, but was defeated by Xu Huang in Weishui. After that, Ma Chao and Yan Xing intercepted and killed, but it was Dian Wei who saved me. Cao Cao praised Wei Zhi's back and rewarded him again. Then they went to Tongguan. By the time it was dark, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xu Huang and other generals led the defeated army back to Tongguan one after another. Cao Cao also ordered Luoyang City to send troops to reinforce Tongguan.
However, it was said that Ma Chao's Xiliang army defeated Cao Cao, captured Chang'an, and sent troops to Tongguan. Tongguan relied on natural hazards, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Xiliang army was eager to attack. Ma Chao then set up a military horse in Huayin. Jia Xu also offered a plan and said: "Cao Cao is good at taking away his wife, and he took Lu Bu's concubine many years ago, but he made a feud with Lu Bu because of this. Why didn't the general contact Lu Bu, attack Cao Cao, and divide the land in Guanzhong. Ma Chao said: "Lu Bu is supplemented by Chen Gong, and he may not be willing to send troops." Jia Xu said: "Why don't the general take advantage of the matter of Diao Chan and provoke it, he will send troops." Ma Chao then wrote a letter and sent it to Lu Bu. LĂź Bu was furious when he received Ma Chao's letter in Dongjun, and immediately ordered troops to attack Chen Liu. Chen Gong couldn't persuade him, so he had to stay with the army to Chen. In Chen Liucheng, Xiahou Yuan's soldiers were strong and strong, and Lu Bu couldn't attack them, and the two sides were deadlocked.
But it was said that Cao Cao retreated to Tongguan, and Ma Chao could not win. A few days later, General Li Tong came from Luoyang with troops to help. Guo Jia saw that there was an opportunity, and hurriedly offered a plan to Cao Cao and said: "Ma Chao will drive the Xiliang army here, and the rear must be empty." I had an extremely risky plan. Cao Cao said: "What is the plan, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Guo Jia said: "You can send an army to hide from Ma Chao and sneak attack his rear." If it succeeds, the morale of Ma Chao's army will definitely collapse, and he will be defeated without a fight. Cao Cao heard that he was reasonable, but he couldn't make a decision. Guo Jianai retired. Cao Cao called Xun Yu and Xun Yuzhi again, and said to the two: "I want to take advantage of the emptiness behind Ma Chao to attack Xiliang, I don't know if it's possible?" Xun You said: "Although this plan is dangerous, it is feasible. Such a bold plan, I expect it must come from Guo Fengxiao. Cao Cao laughed and praised kindness, but decided to take Xiliang. Cao Cao asked who could lead the troops. Xun You said: "Originally, both the Xiahou brothers were okay, but now they are not here. In my Guantong Pass, there is Xu Huang. Cao Cao said: "Xu Huang is brave and strategic, and he can take on this responsibility." I don't know who can help. Xun You said: "Li Tong can be a deputy general." Cao Cao ranzhi, while secretly telling Xu Huang and Li Tong to lead 10,000 troops, turn them into pieces, and go over the mountains and mountains to Xiliang; On the other hand, he confronted Ma Chaojun in Tongguan every day.
However, it was said that Xu Huangzhi secretly went to the outside of Xiliang City to gather soldiers, and there were only more than 5,000 people. He waited for two more days, and called more than 1,000 men. The rest took the opportunity to flee. Li Tong said to Xu Huang and said: "The prime minister and I have 10,000 troops, and we will lose 4,000 without a battle today, for fear of mistaking the prime minister's trust." Xu Huang said: "The plan is in the people, the success is in the sky, you and I do our best." Li Tong said: "How should I act? Xu Huang said: "In the coming day, I will bring more than 100 people into the city, and open the city gate to welcome you into the city." The two of them agreed. When the people in the city left the city the next day, Xu Huang took the opportunity to blend in with the people and returned to the city one after another. By evening, a hundred strong soldiers had entered the city. Xu Huang rushed to the city gate first and killed the city gate soldiers. Li Tong led the army into a swarmed approach. The Western Liang guard general Zhao grabbed the army and led the army from the city to kill. was cut off by Xu Huang with an axe. The rest will fall. Xu Huang then won the West Liang City. He also drove the troops of Xiliang and quickly captured Longyou and Xijun. Xu Huang wrote to Cao Cao to report the victory, and on the other hand, he led the army to attack the Qinzhou lands. In Tianshui and Jicheng, he got Weikang and Yang Fu. Yang Fu admonished Xu Huang and Liang Kuan and Zhao Qu. Xu Huang is used as a general in the army. Yang Fu also persuaded Xu Huang to send troops to the east, so that he could attack Ma Chao with Cao Cheng. Xu Huangran ordered Liang Kuan and Zhao Qu to divide their troops to hold Liangzhou and Qinzhou, and led Li Tong and Yang Fu to capture the lands of Fufeng County occupied by Ma Chao. The guard general in Huaili City is Yang Qiuye, a subordinate of Yan Xing. Hearing that Xu Huang was coming to the rear, he hurriedly asked Ma Chaoqian for help. Led the four gates to guard tightly, waiting for reinforcements.
