On the first night, Ji Ping and Zhang Liao ordered the soldiers to lie down on their pillows and armor, ready to fight at any time, but after the night, they were safe.

On the second day, Hangu closed Dong Zhuo in retreat without fighting.

Yuan Shao and other princes and armies guarded the barracks and waited for battle, but Ji Ping asked Zhang Liao to take this opportunity to step up the training of recruits, this kind of drill before the battle, not only can release and relieve the tension and depression in the hearts of the soldiers, but also allow the soldiers to warm up and prepare for war at any time.

When other princes saw them practicing, they immediately learned the same, but the soldiers of other families ate dry food with two meals a day, but Ji Ping's soldiers let go of their stomachs to eat, these new soldiers were recruited from the people, most of them had not eaten a few full meals since they were young, and now when they encountered this kind of treatment, their loyalty immediately rose sharply, although the intensity of the drill was twice that of others, but the spirit and physical state of the soldiers remained at a high level.

Biqiu Yi and Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei also brought in with 3,000 soldiers, Biqiu Yi had nearly 2,000 soldiers, and Liu Bei and the three of them had been wandering for several years, and the grain, grass and money were almost consumed, only more than 1,000 soldiers and horses, but they were all warriors of a hundred battles, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei each brought 500, and Liu Bei brought 200.

If there is kindness, revenge must be avenged, and there will be help, Ji Ping's gentle and cautious temperament is born with a bit of boldness, a few conversations, there is no bad feeling towards Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, and Guan Yu's righteousness is even more appreciated, so Liu, Guan, and Zhang are equipped with good armor and war horses, and some slightly better weapons are also equipped for their men and horses, and they also provide grain and grass support.

In addition, Ji Ping has a gentle temperament, behaves and talks freely, points out current affairs, has unique opinions, and has his own style, which makes Liu Bei, who is invisible, admired, and even Ji Ping has the style of a famous person.

And Guan Yu and Zhang Fei admired Ji Ping even more because he was not afraid of power and dared to directly rebuke the princes of Kwantung, and when Guan Yu went out of battle, he personally thundered and cheered, which can be described as both wisdom, bravery, benevolence and righteousness, making them confidants.

In the exercise, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei put forward some opinions on the battle, Liu Guan and Zhang have traveled from north to south for nearly half of the Han in the past few years, and they have seen a lot of knowledge and rich combat experience, especially the cavalry generals, who have quite a lot of means, which has benefited Ji Ping a lot.

As soon as Ji Ping was free, he exchanged some customs with them about the Han Dynasty, and had a further understanding of the situation at the bottom of this era and the place, including geography, folk customs, social features, powerful forces, and the livelihood of the people.

In the exchange, Ji Ping also figured out the personalities of the three people, Liu Bei is quite ambitious and urban, has a generous temperament, and has his own atmosphere in speech and demeanor, which makes people unconsciously have a sense of admiration, of course, there are many places that Ji Ping can't see.

Guan Yu was born in a civilian family, and when he was a teenager, he was bullied by the local tyrants, forced to kill people and flee, and left his hometown, so he had a proud and distant affection for those powerful clans and celebrities, but he was quite friendly to civilians and soldiers, and he was able to get the love of his subordinates.

And Zhang Fei is quite wealthy, there are a lot of manors, as for what butcher, it is only a small part of his industry, good at calligraphy and painting, respecting famous gentlemen, but he is not friendly with the soldiers, quite powerful, gentle and quite elegant, but very easy to anger, once it explodes, like a mad tiger, angry eyes are round, eyebrows are upside down, six relatives do not recognize, the power is infinite, full of fierce Zhang Fei.

Guan Yu used a long knife, although it was not as luxurious as the Qinglong Yanyue knife described in later generations, but it was not much different, Zhang Fei used a spear, and Liu Bei was also quite powerful, equipped with a long sword, and a halberd.

Zhang Liao and Duan Xuan practiced soldiers, and Ji Ping took the opportunity to ask Guan Yu and Zhang Fei for advice on the use of cavalry and long weapons.

The next day was spent in calm drills.

The next night, Dong Zhuo did not come to sneak attack, and he was still fine.

On the third day, seeing that Dong Zhuo still didn't move, the princes relaxed a lot, and those celebrities began to drink and feast again, talking about the trend of the world, the subset of economic history, bragging, and fart, everything.

As for the drills, they were all handed over to their generals, and among the princes, only Zhang Liao, Cao Cao and Bao Xin practiced in the army.

While practicing, Ji Ping thought that if Dong Zhuo really retreated and did not fight, the Kwantung princes would have 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the daily consumption of grain and grass would be an astronomical amount, and if it continued like this, in less than a month, I am afraid that he would be forced to disperse in a hurry.

He is not sure what Dong Zhuo is thinking now, before he could guess a lot of things with the historical cognition of his previous life, but now Dong Zhuo has entered Hangu Pass, trapped and can't be stopped, and he has been out of the general trend of history, except for attrition and raids, he really can't guess anything, at most, Niu Fu withdrew his troops from Hedong County and went south, flanking and attacking.

During this period, Cao Cao, Bao Xin and Zang Hong all came to visit Zhang Liao.

Cao Cao and Bao Xin, after all, they are acquaintances, Cao Cao came, and he also openly and secretly inquired about the news of the "Shenwu King", and talked with Liu Bei a few times, and they felt sorry for each other.

The arrival of Zang Hong, a celebrity, was somewhat unexpected by Ji Ping.

After Zhang Liao talked with him, Ji Ping knew that Zang Hong had come to comfort Zhang Liao, and the other princes had secretly alienated Zhang Liao in the past few days.

This Zang Hong's demeanor and knowledge are first-class, and Yuan Shao and other scholars are different from the politicians and careerists, which makes Ji Ping sigh, although the gate valve family is a silverfish that consumes the vitality of the society, but in the same way, they are also the essence of the society, and they have sent a large number of talents to the society.

Ji Ping pondered that in the future, the gate valve family should also be treated differently, so as not to catch them all, but they must be controlled and restrained, so that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

Because of the dynasties, the famous family has been inherited for thousands of years, or changed for a stubble, but it has never died out, the feudal era, wealth and glory, and the prosperity of the family have always been a means to motivate the generals and officials, but it is just a matter of grasping a degree.

Nearly in the evening, after dinner, Ji Ping and Guan Yu practiced against each other and arrived at the edge of the Yellow River in Xin'an.

Now the ice of the Yellow River has melted for more than half a month, and after the flow has passed, the water surface of the Yellow River is open and calm.

Guan Yu was stationed on the bank of the Ma River, and suddenly stroked his beard and said: "Changsheng, a certain Guan Wenyuan garrison on the side of the big river, the military camp is defending on the west and north sides, but beware of Niu Fu from Hedong County leading the army to attack from the opposite bank?" ”

Ji Ping smiled: "It is precisely to prevent Niu Fu's guy, Niu Fu has 30,000 elite soldiers in Hedong County, if the troops are divided from Anyi to Dayang in the south, under the boat of Dayang Ferry and Maojin Ferry, it will only be able to reach this Xin'an in half a day, and then go down to Hanoi, Xiaopingjin, and Mengjin, so it is necessary to be closely guarded and monitored." ”

Guan Yu turned his head with a questioning face: "If Niu Fu goes from Pingyang, through Jiangyi, into Dongyuan, through Yiguan, into Hanoi, and not on the big river, wouldn't we be able to notice?" ”

Ji Ping said with a smile: "There is Hengling Pass in the northwest of Dongyuan, and there is Yiguan Pass, which is narrow and difficult to march, Niu Fu is eager to help Dong Zhuo, how can he give up the difficulty?" ”

Guan Yu shook his head: "According to what I see, if Niu Fu enters Hanoi and Mengjin, he will take Dongyuan and Yiguan Road." ”

Ji Ping's color changed slightly: "I don't know how to determine the cloud chief?" ”

Guan Yu stroked the beard and said complacently: "A certain is a person from Hedong, naturally knows some of the terrain of Hedong, the Yellow Water Turbidity River comes from the northwest, to Tongguan to turn to the east, through Maojin Ferry, the two banks are steep, there are two high mountains in the river, sandwiched into three gates, called the God Gate, the Ghost Gate, the Human Gate, according to legend, when Yu controls the water, the river flow is divided into three strands, the God Gate is dangerous, the ghost door is narrow, the people are shallow, if the autumn is high and the water rises, the people can go boats, but at this time it is still early spring and the water is dry, and the people are also difficult to boat, so if Niu Fu enters Hanoi, Mengjin, he will go to Dongyuan, Yiguan Road all the way. ”

Guan Yu only said half of it, and Ji Ping's face changed greatly, so wouldn't Dongyuan be dangerous.

That night, Ji Ping wandered, and although Dongyuan had not yet received a letter, he had already concluded that it was only a matter of time before Niu Fu would inevitably attack Dongyuan.

He Hou and Tang Wan are both in Dongyuan, and his family background is also there, so he must not be lost, as soon as he thought of this, he was immediately worried, and immediately asked Shi A to send two flying shadows to cross the river to report to Lu Zhi.

At the same time, Zhu Ao rushed to Luoyang with three hundred flying shadows, and on the one hand, he ordered Duan Jin and Gai Shun, who were stationed in Chenggao Tiger Prison, to abandon their two strongholds, and immediately rushed to cross the river and rush to Dongyuan. On the other hand, he ordered and assisted Yuan Ji and Min Gong to organize the collection of civilian boats for emergency river crossing.

Before dawn on the fourth day, the gate of Hangu was suddenly opened, and a cavalry of more than 1,000 horses and horses ran out, followed by thousands of foot soldiers, and quickly lined up.

The Kwantung princes hurriedly lined up in a panic, but saw that nearly 10,000 foot horsemen on the opposite side did not attack, but just lined up neatly, and a big banner in the formation was waving in the wind, embroidered with four big characters: Zhonglang General Lu.
