Pujin Pass, Wei set up Pujin Pass during the Warring States Period, and changed its name to Linjin Pass when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

In the opening of the emperor, the states are transferred, and every year Henan is from Tongguan, Hebei is from Puban, and it is lost in Chang'an. In order to facilitate transportation, the imperial court set up the river bridge in Pujin to pass through the river and place the city in the middle to guard the river bridge.

This pontoon bridge over the Yellow River, which connects Hedong and Guanzhong, is very important because of its strategic location. All the imperial courts built three gates in a row to defend the river bridge. On the shore of Guanzhong, build Pujin Pass, also known as Xiguan City.

On the east bank of the river, the castle of Kasaka was established to protect it. In this way, two cities were built in a row, and the imperial court was not at ease. On a sand island in the middle of the Yellow River, a sandbar city in the river was established, that is, Zhongyun City.

This pontoon bridge connecting Guanzhong with Hedong and Hebei has always been very important. In the middle of the Tang Dynasty, Li Tang took Chang'an as the capital, Luoyang as the accompanying capital, Taiyuan as the northern capital, and Puhan as the central capital, which can be seen from the strategic location here.

In addition to the role of connection, Pujin Pass has a more important role, that is, the side gate of Tongguan, the gate of Guanzhong.

To enter the customs, it is not necessary to enter the Tongguan. Pujin Pass in the north of Tongguan is a side gate of Tongguan. Tongguan is dangerous, and it has always been strong in guarding, and it is generally difficult to exert its wisdom and bravery. However, if you take Pusaka in the north and cross the river to the west, you will enter the heart of the pass, and the guard of Tongguan will take care of it and go. The branch is solved, and Chang'an can sit and take it.

Li Yuan was willing to give up Hedong and lead the main force to the south to fight for Guanzhong, mainly because he was confident that he would avoid the dangerous Tongguan and enter the Guanzhong from the side gate of Tongguan. And his confidence in Pujin came from the fact that Jin Xiaomo, the guard of Pujin Pass and Zhongyun, was his friend, and Jin Xiaomo had already secretly agreed with him that when he arrived, he would immediately attach himself to him.

Standing on the top of Zhongyun Guancheng, it is immediately like being in the rushing Yellow River, looking at it from a high position, the surrounding area is full of water of the Yellow River, and the unique scene of Zhongyun City makes people feel pleasing to the eye.

However, if you stay here for three or five months, then this unique scenery is really nostalgic and joyful. But if it's in this for a year or two. Then it will feel monotonous, and if it is three or five years, it will be disgusting.

And Jin Xiaomo, the guard of Pujin Pass and Zhongjun City, has been guarding here for almost ten years, and since he was transferred here in the third year of the Great Cause, ten years have passed in a flash. It's been ten years, it's been ten years, and it seems that the imperial court has long forgotten him here.

Every day, the sound of the Yellow River is rumbling. All he could see was the yellow river, and such a boring scene made him almost collapse.

Fortunately. Such a difficult day is finally coming to an end.

In a happy mood, he called his beautiful concubine, and together they climbed the high Zhongyun City again to enjoy the rolling Yellow River.

"General, don't you hate this Yellow River the most? Why are you so interested in watching the Yellow River today? The beautiful concubine Su Xiaoxiao asked with a smile.

Jin Xiaomo was in a good mood at this time, and drank the wine handed by the concubine cup after cup, without drinking a few cups. But he was already slightly drunk.

While hugging the beautiful concubine in his arms, Jin Xiaomo said happily, "I've been here for ten years, and I've long hated this place." But I'm about to leave this hellish place, and maybe I won't have to come back in this life, but today is the last time to have a good look. ”

"General. Are you leaving? Is it to be transferred back to Chang'an Gaosheng? That's congratulations to the general, you have been promoted, but don't leave the slave family here. ”

Jin Xiaomo hugged this white and greasy concubine and said with a smile. "Whoever you leave behind, master, I am reluctant to leave my concubine."

Su Xiaoxiao exerted all kinds of skills, blindly pouring Jin Xiaomo's wine, and after a while, Jin Xiaomo was already drunk and inhuman, lying in her arms and falling asleep. Su Xiaoxiao glared at Jin Xiaomo with some annoyance, and secretly sighed that this dead old thing had a really strict mouth, and it took most of the day. Nothing came out. …,

Helping Jin Xiaomo into the bedroom, Su Xiaoxiao rummaged around without giving up. Not for a moment. In a small box under the bed, I found several letters. Hurriedly open the list. Su Xiaoxiao was immediately pleasantly surprised to find that the inscription at the end of the letter was the word brother Shude. Contact the content in the letter, she has already guessed that this Shude is Li Shude Li Yuan.

Holding these letters, an unusual surprise flashed in Su Xiaoxiao's eyes, and he muttered softly, "As long as I send this information back, then I can immediately return to Liaodong to enjoy the rest of my life, and I can no longer take such a risk to laugh and play." ”

Looking at Jin Moxiao, who was still asleep, Su Xiaoxiao changed her clothes, stuffed all the letters into her arms, put on a big cloak, and left quietly.

In Tongguan, not far south of Pujin Pass, Yu Wenhua immediately led 50,000 soldiers and horses to station in Tongguan as early as he knew that Li Yuan was going south. The big loss that I suffered in Taiyuan last time made Yu Wenhua and Li Yuan deeply jealous. Therefore, knowing that Li Yuan must have come to Guanzhong when he went south this time, he was only Chen Bingtong Pass, and did not dare to send troops to Hedong. Fortunately, a Yang Yong came out halfway and blocked Li Yuan in the dragon gate.

Later, I heard that Wang Shichong had also sent troops into Hedong, and Yu Wenhua was even more happy. Suddenly sit back and relax, and no longer take Li Yuan's father and son to heart. left his adopted son Yuwen Chengdu to guard Tongguan, and he returned to Chang'an with his two sons and went to enjoy himself.

Late at night, Yuwen Chengdu was deducing the situation in Hedong in the general's mansion, when suddenly an exclamation sounded outside, "There are assassins!" ”

Then there was a sound of fighting with weapons in the east, causing the guards in the palace to rush to the front.

"Whew!"

Suddenly, from the west roof of the General's Mansion in the distance, suddenly a streamer came straight to Yuwen Chengdu. Yuwen Chengdu snorted coldly, and quickly pulled out the long knife on his waist and slashed it like electricity, but accurately slashed the streamer away.

The streamer suddenly turned around, and with a beep, it was nailed to the outline pillar on the side, and it still vibrated to itself.

One of the guards quickly stepped forward and pulled down, "Major General, there's a letter on the crossbow!" ”

Yuwen Chengdu took the letter and unfolded it, but was surprised to find that there were only five words on it, "Go back to the study to check!" ”

"Pretending to be a ghost!" Yuwen Chengdu sneered a few times, turned back to the study, but saw that there was a brocade box on the desk at some point.

"Go over and open!"

One of the guards stepped forward and opened it gently, only to see several letters lying inside.

Yuwen Chengdu took the letter and read it carefully, his eyes widened angrily, and he shouted, "Jin Xiaomo, old horseman, dare to betray the Lord and collaborate with the enemy!" Someone came, immediately ordered 10,000 light horses, and immediately prepared to go. ”

A lieutenant hesitated, "Your Highness, King Xu confessed to let the young general guard Tongguan and not leave lightly." ”

Yuwen Chengdu threw a few letters at his feet, "Jin Xiaomo's old puppet actually fornicated with Li Yuan's monarch killer behind our back, this person has all the evidence and material evidence, how can I spare him." You immediately write an urgent report to the king of Duofu, and Ben will immediately go to Pujin Pass to get the head of the dog. ”

When the lieutenant read the letter, he was also surprised. Pujin Pass is the side gate of Tongguan, once Jin Xiaomo really surrenders to Li Yuan, then Li Yuan's army can bypass the natural danger of Tongguan and go straight to the pass from Pujin Pass.

"The monarch killer Li Yuan is really shameless and cunning, if it weren't for someone to send this letter, I am afraid that Pujin Guan Tianwei will easily fall into the hands of Li Yuan. Major General, Jin Xiaomo has been stationed in Pujin and Zhongtong Erguan for ten years, but he is afraid that the soldiers of Erguan are all his henchmen. The major general only brought 10,000 horses over, but he was afraid that it would not be enough, so it was better to bring 20,000 horses. Tongguan is defended by 30,000 horses, and it will be fine for the time being. I will immediately write an urgent report to King Xu, and ask him to send reinforcements again, which can be safe. ”

Yuwen Chengdu shook his hand, "Killing Jin Xiaomo's old puppet is enough for one person." brought 10,000 people to go, but he was afraid that the Li family's traitors would come too quickly, just in case. ”…,

"Then the general should bring more people and horses, in case the Li family really comes, more people and horses, there will be more protection. Li Yuan's father and son are as cunning as a fox and the other as fierce as a wolf, and the young general must not underestimate the enemy. ”

"Everyone knows that Li Shimin is fierce in his soldiers, but I want to meet him for a while. If he doesn't come, it's fine, if he does, I want him to come and never return. I want him to know whether he, the disciple of Chen Pojun, is powerful, or I, the brave and invincible Tianbao general who has been given by the first emperor, is powerful. When he said this, Yuwen Chengdu's eyes were full of war.

A personal guard has already taken Yuwen Chengdu's phoenix wings and gold hammer, Yuwen Chengdu held the boring in his hand, turned over on the horse, and shouted, "Go!" ”

Yuwen Chengdu led 10,000 light horsemen to rush to Pujin Pass in the north of Tongguan overnight, and after a few hours, he had already arrived not far from the pass. He ordered the army to hide ten miles outside the city, and he only led 300 guards to Pujin Pass.

When he arrived at the bottom of the city, he showed up his identity as soon as he saw the banner, and the guards did not dare to hinder him, and immediately hurriedly ordered the switch to let him enter. As soon as he entered the pass, Yuwen Chengdu immediately summoned the generals of the Guan squadron, the captain and above, and everyone arrived, but Jin Xiaomo was still drunk and lying in the Zhongtong Pass in the river.

Yuwen Chengdu used Jin Xiaomo's letter of fornication with Li Yuan to everyone, and ordered his subordinates to behead Jin Xiaomo's henchmen and lieutenants on the spot. and immediately sent people to order the soldiers and horses outside the city to enter the city, and ordered a hundred guards to rush to Zhongyun City to capture Jin Xiaomo.

Le Xiaomo was still in a drunken dream, and was escorted back to Pujin Pass by Yuwen Chengdu guards, and in the Pujin Pass General's Mansion, a bucket of cold water woke Jin Xiaomo up. When he saw Yuwen Chengdu who suddenly appeared in front of him, he immediately felt bad, and when he saw the private message with Li Yuan thrown in front of him, his face was immediately like ashes, and all thoughts were ashes.

"Report, Major General, 10,000 light cavalry have entered the city, and Pujin Pass and Zhongyun Pass have been controlled by our department."

Yuwen Chengdu glanced coldly at the lieutenants and officers in the hall, "Okay, drag Jin Xiaomo, the old horseman, down to the head first, pass on the heads of the battalions, and then send them to Chang'an by horse." In addition, immediately investigate the two passes of Pujin and Zhongyun, and all the generals who have the heart of Jin Xiaomo will be executed, and those who report can be spared death! ”

"Obey!" (To be continued) ......,
