Chapter 221: Meridian Dao narrowly takes Chang'an

However, it was said that on the night of Qin Mi's departure, Hua Fei and the others agreed after deliberation that Chang'an City was vast and huge, and if it only relied on Gan Ning, Zhang Ren, He Man and the less than 10,000 people under their command. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

It is definitely not enough to resist the counterattack of Li Dao and others, and defend Chang'an City. Therefore, they must have follow-up support.

So, under the bright red firelight, Hua Fei opened his mouth to ask Yan Pudao, who had lived in Hanzhong for a long time: "Yan is engaged!" Do you know what paths in Hanzhong can go straight to Guanzhong? ”

"Back to the lord's words!" Yan Pu clenched his fists and replied in the faint smoke of oil, "The road from Chang'an to Hanzhong, the westernmost is Chencang Road, and then we wait to pick up the people of Chang'an to leave Chang'an's Bao Ramp Road, and then to the east is the most difficult meridian road." ”

Saying that, he paused for a moment before he said again: "If you go further to the east, there are two roads, Kugu and Wuguan, but these two places are not under the jurisdiction of Hanzhong. ”

"Oh? Aren't they all said that there are six paths in the Qinling Mountains? But why did Yan Pu only say five ways? Where else did the trail go? ”

When Hua Fei heard this, he was secretly surprised. But I quickly thought that the six roads of the Qinling Mountains are the words of later generations after all, maybe because the terrain has not changed in this era, or people have not discovered this road.

Thinking about it, he opened his mouth and said: "In this way, in addition to the Chencang Road where our army's Dasan Pass is located, we only have two roads left. ”

"Exactly!" Yan Pu Shili replied loudly, but continued in a deep voice, "It's just that the garden suggests that the lord should not let the army go to the meridian road. ”

Hua Fei was secretly thinking of the famous meridian conspiracy in history, and when he heard this, his eyes brightened and he stretched out his hand to Yan Pu and asked, "Yan Zhi, why do you oppose taking the meridian road?" ”

"Lord!" Yan Pu hugged his fist and said, "The meridian road was originally a path in the pre-Qin period, and later Gaozu repaired the plank road in the Ming Dynasty and secretly crossed the Chen Cang, so he ordered Zhang Liang to burn the plank road, and it was not until Wang Mang that he ordered someone to dig the road and rebuild it." ”

When Hua Fei heard this, he secretly slandered Liu Bang's approach in his heart, but asked Yan Pu urgently, "Has it been repaired?" ”

Yan Pu nodded, but said to Hua Feiyu: "The repair is repaired, but in addition to the mountain and road dangers, this road has a strange place, so this road is difficult to pass." ”

Hua Fei secretly said in his heart: "It's just that the mountains are high and the roads are dangerous, I remember that there was a famous saying in later generations, 'The six roads of the Qinling Mountains and the meridian are kings.'" It is said that since the completion of this road, countless people have tried to smuggle through it, but none of them have succeeded, and even the famous first generation of Chuang King, Gao Yingxiang, has died here. ”

Thinking about it, he asked Yan Pu, "Oh? Is there anything special about this trail? ”

"Yes!" Yan Pu replied loudly, "The weather in this road is unpredictable, and it is not based on wind and clouds at all, the rain in the valley comes and goes, and sometimes the sun shines on it and can give people a downpour. And ......"

"And what?"

When Yan Pu heard Hua Fei's question, he replied in a loud voice: "And it is said that in this valley, the rain is extremely dense. If there is rain in the mountains, the people who enter the valley often have to be trapped in the valley for a long time before they can get out of the mountain. ”

"Shhh Hua Fei's eyes widened when he heard this, and he gasped, only to feel that the roots of his teeth were floating.

At this point, he knew why Zhuge Liang would rather lead the army to shuttle between the mountains and mountains than agree to Wei Yan's Meridian Valley plot.

Everyone thought that Zhuge Liang rejected Wei Yan's conspiracy because of prudence, and even Hua Fei himself always thought so.

But I didn't know that it was still Zhuge Liang, and he was a step ahead. There is a saying that the mountain is high and the road is slippery, and it is difficult to walk on a rainy day. This Meridian Valley is so peculiar and dangerous, not to mention that Zhuge Liang disagrees, Hua Fei feels that even if it is replaced by himself, he will not dare to agree.

Thinking of this, Hua Fei's heart was secretly happy, because Hua Fei thought that Li Dao and the others were both short of food and suspicious of each other at the moment, and decided in his heart that it was impossible for them to go and defend the meridian road.

If it weren't for Yan Pu's knowledge, he would still be preparing to let Wei Yan take Pu Hu and the others on a trip to the Meridian Valley to make a surprise attack on Chang'an City, in order to fulfill this thousand-year-old wish.

I didn't expect this Meridian Valley to be so dangerous! Moreover, two of the six roads of Chang'an are not in the territory, one is still missing, and the other is dangerous and difficult to walk, so there is only the slope road to go.

Thinking about it, he secretly patted his chest and said loudly to Xu and Yan: "In this way, there is nothing to think about." We only have one way to go, and that is to go straight to Baogu and go straight to Chang'an! ”

So after the route of the troops was determined, Hua Fei ordered his subordinates to prepare as much dry food as possible overnight; While discussing the matter of transferring troops with Xu Shu and Yan Pu.

In the end, Hua Fei took Xu Shu as the main commander, led Wei Yan and Zhang Wei, and led the mountain elite soldiers under Wei Yan and half of the Chinese army, as well as the brothers who had moved to Hanzhong, a total of 30,000 people took the road to Chang'an City.

went to meet Gan Ning and other generals, found the opportunity to take Chang'an City in one fell swoop, and then stuck to the fortified city, waiting for the enemy's food to run out of chaos.

Of course, Hua Fei told Xu Shu more secretly, in addition to protecting the Son of Heaven "well" when he went to Chang'an, he should also be extremely careful to guard against another person.

After Xu Shu received the order, Hua Fei hurriedly dispatched the 8,000 elite soldiers under the command of Yan Yan, who was guarding the upper yong, to come to Hanzhong to be the town. and ordered Yan Pu to assist Yan Yan and make every effort to arrange for the rescue of the displaced people from Chang'an.

Subsequently, he ordered Chengdu's Beijia Lusu to mobilize grain to the north to support Hanzhong to rescue the displaced people and support Huafei's Northern Expedition.

As for Hua Fei himself, he led Xu Chu and the remaining 10,000 Chinese army athletes to go to Dasanguan with a banner, preparing to attract Li Dao, Guo Yan, Fan Chou and others with the bait.

However, it was said that Xu Shu was ordered to lead Wei Yan, Zhang Wei, Pu Hu and others to take all the dry food from Hanzhong at dawn the next day. During the march, Xu Shu found that the young Wei Yan had changed greatly.

This son was originally a proud and aggressive little rooster who ignored everyone except for a few people such as Hua Fei and Tai Shici, but now he has become a little sheep who loves to laugh.

A red face, now all the time, not smiling so much, in this autumn feel that there is a spring breeze.

Xu Shu was surprised, but approached Wei Yan and asked quietly, "Wen Chang! It's only been a long time since you've seen you, how did your temper become so good? ”

"Really?" Wei Yan shouted at Xu Shu with his eyes wide when he heard this, "Yuan Zhi! Don't fool me, do you really think my temper has gotten better? ”

"yes!" Xu Shu nodded solemnly, saying that he was telling the truth, and then looked at Wei Yanqi and said, "As the saying goes, 'The country is easy to change, but it is difficult to change!'" 'What kind of elixir did the lord give you, so that you, an arrogant boy, could change your sex in such a short period of time? ”

"The lord didn't give me any medicine." Wei Yan grinned and said, "It's just that every time the lord is free, he will come to talk to me." ”

As he spoke, his eyes were full of little stars, and he looked at the mountains and mountains to the west. He said with emotion: "The lord is just like the most cordial brother, telling me that you must be arrogant, but you can't be arrogant......"

In Wei Yan's words full of admiration, Xu Shu understood that not only Hua Fei would teach Wei Yan the truth of being a man when he was free, but even the reserve officers under Hua Fei's command would chat with Wei Yan from time to time.

Therefore, Wei Yan, who understood the reason, had such a big change. Xu Shu, who knew the reason, secretly praised Hua Fei and his "guides" in his heart for doing ideological work.

After the army entered the mountain, Xu Shu ordered Pu Hu to do his best, leading his group of "divine soldiers" who climbed the mountain and waded through the water to open the way in front of them, and rushed to Chang'an.

However, it is said that this slope is the closest road among the six roads in the Qinling Mountains, and the whole road is only more than 470 miles. Xu Shu got the help of the "divine soldiers" and traveled among the mountains and mountains for several days.

Among them, the mountain road is difficult to walk, and I don't need to say much about the hard work, but soon after Gan Ning left Taibai County with his front foot, he also led the tired army and arrived at Taibai County.

So, after Xu Shu learned that Gan Ning had led the army to Chang'an City, he ordered the army to seize the time to repair, and sent people to Chang'an City to investigate, and did not mention the specific news.

But it was said that Levi led the army eastward and hurried to catch up with the Son of Heaven all the way. But more than 50 miles away from the city, he caught up with Liu Xie and others who fled. Li Wei ordered tens of thousands of Chang'an defenders to rush forward, but the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials were fortunate to be able to escape by Dong Cheng leading the army to fight to the death.

Li Wei and others killed Dong Cheng's subordinates and the servants of the hundred officials, but Dong Cheng, who had fought hard to break off, had to protect himself desperately and walked to the east. When Levi saw the Son of Heaven walking away, he was furious in his heart.

Just as he was about to wave his sword and shout at the army to chase after him, he heard someone behind him suddenly shouting: "Captain Li, slow down!" ”

When Li Wei heard the sound, he looked back, and saw dozens of riders hugging an old man with a long beard fluttering, hurrying in the dry autumn wind.

"It's you!" Li Wei saw that the people were stunned and exclaimed, but he hurriedly dismounted and stood beside the road, and asked in a loud voice, "Doctor Guanglu!" Why did you come here in person? All you need to do is ask someone to pass on a word, and Levi will do it. (To be continued.) )
