Wuguan north by the high Shaoxi Mountain, south of the danger of the south, surrounded by mountains and rivers, dangerous obstacles, for the Guanzhong and the southeast gateway of the place.

According to this dangerous place, it can be two enemies hundred, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and has the reputation of "Qin Pass One Hundred and Two", and Hangu Pass, Xiao Pass, and Dasan Pass are called "Qin's Four Stops".

Dong Zhuo disturbed Guanzhong, and many people fled into Jingzhou from here, including Qi Muhong, Du Ji and other celebrities, but bandits were rampant along the way.

Cao Cao took Chang'an, and Zhang Xiu dedicated Nanyang, sent troops to guard Wuguan, clear the territory, since then the road is smooth, become Chang'an to connect Jingxiang, Wu Yue hub, pedestrians endlessly.

But with Liu Qi's sudden rise to the top, outwitting Nanyang, and breaking Cao's army, Wuguan became the gateway to Guanzhong, and Cao Cao sent an additional 5,000 elite soldiers to this place.

Chang'an Taishou Zhong Xuan added post stations along the way, from Chang'an to Shangluo, a total of eight post stations, not only to inquire about the news of the former army, but also to ensure the timely supply of grain and grass.

Half a year has passed, the spiraling mountain road outside Wuguan has long been cut off, the grass is overgrown, and there is an early snowfall, the mountains are gray and gloomy.

The weather was gloomy, the northwest wind was howling, and a group of people and horses were slowly walking on the mountain road, and the face of the person who led the troops first was like a heavy jujube, and his expression was solemn, it was Wei Yan.

When he was bowing his head and hurrying away, someone stood in front of him and turned around and said: "General Wei, turning this mountain col is the territory of Wuguan, and I don't see Cao Jun's sentry, it must be freezing cold, and they are all hiding in the pass." ”

Wei Yan beckoned, everyone hid in the leeward place to rest temporarily, stepped forward to observe the situation at Wuguan, and saw that there were figures moving on the pass, obviously the defenders did not completely relax their vigilance, and there were still patrols.

However, Wuguan is built in a high ground in the middle of the mountain, the north is close to the cliff, the south is bordered by the stream, there are only two gates in the east and west, if you want to enter the Guanzhong, there is only one passage.

Turning his head to Hu Jiyan, he said: "This Wuguan is built on the mountain, if you want to enter the pass, not to mention the rugged mountain road, the pass is high and deep, narrow and difficult to walk, it is really easy to defend and difficult to attack." ”

Hu Ji nodded and said: "This place has been a battleground for soldiers since ancient times, and if it is not outwitted, it will be difficult to attack the sky." ”

With a snort, Wei Yan pulled out the Qingyu Sword, and a resolute face was reflected on the blade, and he said in a deep voice: "It is in vain to take this pass, and the hundred thousand Cao soldiers will come." ”

After observing for a while, the two returned to the mountain pass, rested for a while, and saw that the sky was getting dark, and came down with three thousand Red Flame Army.

When I turned the mountain pass, suddenly a sharp whistle sounded from the cliff several feet high, and then green smoke rose up, and the drums were turned off, and the defenders were busy.

Wei Yan was secretly frightened in his heart, it turned out that there was a secret sentry on the cliff, and from that position, this mountain road could be seen at a glance, and a bird could be seen flying by, let alone sneaking in.

"Raise the flag!" Wei Yan ordered loudly, and there were soldiers behind him to raise the banner of the Cao army.

The men and horses were neatly lined up and marched towards the pass, all of them wearing Cao Jun armor, and Wei Yan held the Qingyu sword in his hand and strode forward.

"Whoever is here, report your name!" When the guard saw a group of Cao soldiers coming, he was puzzled and scolded loudly.

Wei Yan came to the pass, hugged his fists and said: "We are Luoyang soldiers and horses, who guards the pass?" ”

"A certain is the general of Fenwei, Xiahou Cun is also!" Guan Yijiang leaned out and puzzled: "How do Luoyang soldiers and horses come from outside the Guan?" ”

Wei Yan said loudly: "Yan Wei, the general of Fenwu, came to guard the pass on the order of the prime minister, and quickly opened and closed the door. ”

"General Yang Wei, wait for ......"

"Yan Wei is not Yang Wei!" Wei Yan was furious.

"I know you're Yang Wei!" Xiahou Cun said impatiently: "How do you pass through the territory of Nanyang?" ”

Although he is a child of Xiahou, he grew up in Huainan and did not know that he had a problem with his accent.

I didn't think that before the buttocks were hot, there was another general with a higher position, or from the direction outside the gate, and I was uncertain.

Using a pseudonym, and being misunderstood by this kid, Wei Yan was so angry that he gasped, but he was sure that the information provided by the guard general was the same as that provided by Xu Shu, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and he no longer bothered about this matter.

Taking a deep breath and clenching his fists, he said: "The military situation is urgent, and the trip is delayed due to snow, so I don't dare to make a detour through Guanzhong and come from the Lu family over the mountain." ”

Xiahou Cun asked, "In this case, can there be a rune official document?" ”

Wei Yan replied: "I crossed the mountains and mountains, and accidentally lost the official document. ”

"Hahaha, what a joke!" Xiahou Cun looked up to the sky and laughed: "Liu Qi will be a wine bag and rice bag, but I don't know that I am as shrewd as a monkey!" Come on, release the arrows......"

"Wait!" Wei Yan hurriedly shouted: "We are personally appointed by the prime minister, if you dare to do it, General Cao Ren will not be able to protect you." ”

Hearing Cao Ren, Xiahou was stunned, and snorted coldly: "You must be Jingzhou soldiers and horses, thinking that after changing the armor, I won't recognize it?" ”

Wei Yan raised the Qingyu sword and shouted: "Although the official document is lost, there is a Cheng belief that the object is here, can you recognize this sword?" ”

Xiahou Cun slowly lowered his raised hand, and he couldn't see it from a distance, and shouted, "Send it up." ”

At the juncture, the defenders hung the basket with ropes, and Wei Yan ordered the sword to be taken to the city and put it in the basket.

Xiahou Cun took the sword, pulled out half of it, and exclaimed, "Qingyu Sword? ”

Wei Yan sneered: "Since you recognize this sword, can you know that it is the Prime Minister's sword?" ”

Yitian and Qingyu are Cao Cao's swords, and Cao Jun knows about this matter.

The key Xiahou is that he has visited the people of Xuchang, and he has asked Xiahou En to observe the Qingyu Sword, which is more confirmed.

"You...... How can you have a prime minister's sword? Xiahou Cun's face changed slightly.

"Do you know that Ben will be the prime minister's son-in-law?" Wei Yan smiled proudly: "The prime minister has to make a detailed report recently, Liu Qi has the intention of plotting against the pass, and sent me to guard the martial pass. I am afraid that the general has not been in office for a long time, and it is recommended by General Cao, who is unwilling to obey the order, so I hereby hand over this sword to me and order the whole army,"

"This ......" Xiahou Cun hesitated.

Cao Cao has seven or eight daughters, and there are also the daughters of married women, who are also accepted as righteous daughters, and there are countless of them, how does he know who his son-in-law is?

"If you don't switch it on, you dare to disobey?" Wei Yan stood under the city with his waist crossed and shouted: "In this case, return the sword quickly, and I will return to Luoyang immediately." ”

"General Yang is angry!" Xia Houcun came back to his senses, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "The responsibility of the young general is to be cautious, since the prime minister is wearing a sword, it is like the prime minister coming in person, how dare you disobey?" I'm going down to greet you! ”

The gate slowly opened, Wei Yan glanced at the people behind him, and stepped forward, and the soldiers followed closely and rushed to the front of the gate.

Xiahou Cun hurriedly walked out of the customs, holding the Qingyu Sword in both hands, and bowed down to greet him.

The person who came was not only Cao Cao's cronies, but also had an official rank one level higher than him, so he naturally had to deal with it carefully.

Wei Yan stepped forward to take the sword, and said with a smile on his chin: "Restrain the horse from the precipice, the general is quite shrewd." ”

Xiahou Cun looked up and saw the cold glint in Wei Yan's eyes, and he was so frightened that a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, and he hurriedly said, "The last general will not dare!" ”

Wei Yan snorted slightly, and when he walked to the gate first, Xiahou Cun hurriedly followed, and said with a smile: "I have ordered someone to prepare a banquet to wash the dust for the general." ”

Wei Yan waved his hand and said, "Business is important, don't rush to eat first!" ”
