Coming out of Xiying, Zhang Fei had a general understanding of the combat power of the Chang'an defenders. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Chang'an is under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Yin, although there has been no war for many years, but because of the geographical particularity of Chang'an, people have to pay attention, first, the Han Dynasty has been buried by the late emperors; Second, the place where the dragon vein is located; Third, the economic prosperity of Chang'an is second only to that of Jingshi Luoyang; Fourth, Chang'an lives in the land of three auxiliaries, whether it is for Liangzhou or the northern Xiongnu south, it is in a strategic buffer place, which gives the Han court a chance to prepare, based on the above points, it is impossible for the imperial court not to pay attention to Chang'an, therefore, the ordnance of the defenders guarding Chang'an City may be slightly lower than that of the southern, northern and Yulin armies guarding Luoyang, but the combat power is not far behind. What's more, the Chang'an garrison was trained by Huangfu Jianshou, and from time to time they were pulled out to fight against Xiliang's iron cavalry, and their faint combat power overshadowed the northern and southern armies.

Not long ago, Huangfu Song commanded 10,000 Chang'an defenders and headquarters soldiers and horses and 100,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry to a blocking battle, which drove Xiliang Iron Cavalry out of Sanfu at once, and completely stabilized Sanfu's battle line.

The next day, Zhang Fei led more than 100 white cavalry to sweep into the Xiliang cavalry near Chang'an.

After embarking on the journey, Zhang Fei followed the gallop all the way, passing through Weiqiao and Duyou, until he found a small group of Xiliang cavalry near Xiliu, cleaned up the Xiliang cavalry near Xiliu, and Zhang Fei temporarily stationed outside Xiliu City.

"Whew, this is the real general!" Zhang Fei muttered in a low voice, looking at the somewhat dilapidated Willow Camp with a bright expression.

"My lord, this is where General Zhou Yafu used to garrison his troops in the past?" On one side, Zhu Kun's eyes were full of fascination.

"Yes," Zhang Fei raised his head and said with a solemn expression, "This is the Xiliu Camp that Emperor Xiaowen inspected at the beginning, and the leader is Zhou Yafu and Zhou Taiwei. ”

"Huh," Zhu Kun screamed, and said with a radiant look, "My lord, although I can't be a general like Captain Zhou, but it's no problem for me to be a pioneer, charge into battle, I am invincible," said Zhu Kun waved his fists fiercely and slapped his chest.

"Hehe," Zhang Fei smiled heartily, he liked Zhu Kun's momentum, he was not afraid of anything, but when he started fighting, he was like a wolf, and he never died.

After a simple night's rest, the next day, Zhang Fei got up early in the morning, and before dawn, more than 100 cavalrymen went straight to the next stop, Maoxiang, where there was an acquaintance who Zhang Fei fought side by side, and there were also ancestors that Zhang Fei admired.

Maoxiang, when Zhang Fei led his troops to arrive, he was stopped, the reason was that the imperial tomb was important, and weapons were strictly prohibited, but the weapons of more than ten personal guards such as Zhang Fei and Zhu Kun were confiscated, and the rest of the people stayed in a tent outside the imperial tomb.

In the courtyard of the house, Zhang Fei pushed the door and entered, and praised him, "Lord Yan, I haven't seen you for a long time, and my face is really getting more and more radiant." ”

"Yo, Zhang Yide," Yan Zhong looked up, saw that it was an old acquaintance, and quipped, "Why are you here?" ”

Immediately, Zhang Fei squeezed his eyebrows and said, elongating his tone, "Why, Lord Yan is not welcome to a certain family, you have to get it, a certain family will leave, this will go." Saying that, Zhang Fei looked like he was about to leave. Seeing this, Yan Zhong smiled bitterly, and hurriedly grabbed Zhang Fei, "Zhang Yide, Zhang Yide, I haven't seen you for ten months, but you have begun to toss the old man!" ”

"Hehe," Zhang Fei smiled, and Yan Zhong asked again, "Yide, you didn't come here at the request of the general, why didn't you go to the general to report, and you ran all the way to Maoxiang leisurely." ”

"I'm leisurely," Zhang Fei spit out a stomach full of bitter water, "Along the way, I led a hundred cavalry under my command to chase down the Xiliang rangers along the gallop road to eliminate the disaster, where did I come from." Saying that, Zhang Fei looked at Yan Zhong with ill will, "It's you, brother, why are you guarding the imperial mausoleum in this Mao Township, if it weren't for Huangfu Jianshou telling me, I wouldn't have known that the dignified Xiliang celebrity had fallen to the point of guarding the imperial mausoleum." ”

"Alas," Yan Zhong sighed, with regret in his heart, waved his hand and said, "Yide, it's better for you to know little about this matter, so as not to get into trouble." ”

"Brother Yan, there is something you can't say, okay, our brothers have also experienced life and death together, there is no need to hide it, this is too outward, isn't it," Zhang Fei said with a smile.

Yan Zhong shook his head, "Yide, it's better that you don't know much about this matter. ”

"Grandma," Zhang Fei saw Yan Zhong's appearance of not eating oil and salt, and not saying anything, and he couldn't help but itch with hatred. Immediately, the room fell into a dreak. Zhang Fei stared at Yan Zhong while stroking his chin with his hand, carefully thinking about the meaning of Yan Zhong's words, while Yan Zhong's face remained unchanged, but there were ripples in his heart.

Leaning less, Zhang Fei suddenly thought that according to the "Book of the Later Han", Yan Zhong once proposed that Huangfu Song take advantage of the turmoil of the Han Dynasty to launch a coup d'état and establish himself as king, but was rejected by Huangfu Song, and then Yan Zhong left and did not serve by Huangfu Song's side. Until 188, Xiliang rebelled again, unfortunately Yan Zhong was captured by Han Sui, because he refused to help the abuse, Han Sui imprisoned Yan Zhong again, did not let him go, to 189, Xiliang rebellion was quelled, Yan Zhong fell seriously ill and died.

"Could it be that Yan Zhong has already persuaded Huangfu Song?" Zhang Fei muttered in a low voice, "Otherwise, with his ability, he shouldn't be guarding the imperial tomb in the rear!" ”

In the hall that had been dull for a long time, he suddenly heard Zhang Fei muttering to himself, and Yan Zhong suddenly asked in a loud voice, "Yide, what are you whispering?" ”

"Huh?" Zhang Fei hurriedly shook his head like a rattle, "How can you say this, otherwise, wouldn't it be shocking," but he said, "Mu You, I'm just thinking if you're free today?" When you have time, take me to visit the mausoleum of Emperor Xiaowu and pay homage to the late famous general. ”

"Mu You," Yan Zhong asked Zhang Fei with a puzzled and suspicious look as he chewed on the new word, "What does this mean?" ”

"Huh?" Zhang Fei almost forgot that this was a trendy term in later generations, and accidentally popped out of his mouth, and immediately said haha to dispel Yan Zhong's suspicions, "This means nothing, there is no other meaning." ”

"No, it's interesting," Yan Zhong said calmly as if he had discovered a new continent, brushing his beard with one hand and looking calm, "Anyway, it's nothing important, I'll take you to visit the tomb of Emperor Xiaowu in a while." ”

After a short time, Yan Zhong finished handling the affairs at hand, told the guards to stay and fly to the tomb of Emperor Xiaowu.

Walking all the way, Yan Zhong popularized knowledge to Zhang Fei while walking, "This Maoling is located in the south of Beizhi Mountain, north of Yaoping Zhongnan Mountain, and it is a rare feng shui treasure land. According to the historical records, this is the year when His Majesty the Emperor Xiaowu hunted here, found the unicorn auspicious, and the immortal fruit tree, His Majesty Emperor Wu saw this auspicious rui, and then enclosed the land to supervise the construction of the imperial mausoleum, which took 53 years to supervise the completion. ”

"Niang Xipi, there are so many ways for a dead person, but this imperial tomb is also too damn big," along the way, Zhang Fei was indeed shocked by this imperial tomb, hundreds of miles in length and width, completely invisible, comparable to a medium-sized city, no wonder there were so many warlords digging the imperial tomb in the past dynasties, among which there were many carp crossing the river with funeral goods alone. For a long time, Zhang Fei said in shock, "It is worthy of being the imperial mausoleum that took 53 years to build, known as China's pyramids." (To be continued.) )
