Rampage through the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 158 Mengde Jitu Hangu Pass

At this time, the brothers Zuo Ci and the others were discussing something in the room.

"Brother, are you really going to do this?" Nan Hua asked.

"Second Junior Brother, now it's a time of chaos, this is an opportunity, an opportunity for our sect, if we handle it properly, then the glory of our sect will be around the corner!" Zuo Ci said.

"The pre-Qin period was also in troubled times, but we have not succeeded for hundreds of years. Can we do it this time?" Wang Yue asked.

At this time Yu Ji said: "I agree with the senior brother's opinion. Now it is different from that time. Besides, Zhang De is now a prince..."

"But the current situation in the world is still unclear. It's too early for us to die now." Wang Yue continued.

"Look at this, this is the news I just got, it was just sent over from Chang'an, take a look!" As he said, Zuo Ci sent a kit in front of several people.

Nan Hua opened the brocade pouch first, and took out a brocade cloth from it, Yu Ji and Wang Yue also came over.

"Dong Zhuo is dead!" Wang Yue shouted first.

Nanhua was not like Wang Yue. After reading the brocade cloth, he said: "It seems that disputes among princes are inevitable. If so, then I support senior brother! This is indeed an opportunity for us. For hundreds of years , the world has always respected scholars, and our ancestors of several generations all have unique skills, but because they were born in poverty, they have not been reused for a long time, and the sect cannot be revitalized! We should seize this opportunity!"

"Well, since this is the case, I don't have any objections anymore, and I will follow my senior brother's orders!" Wang Yue said.

At this time, one of Wang Yue's disciples came over and said, "Master, Master, it's not good, Junior Brother Zhang and Junior Brother Zhou are fighting!"

……

Luoyang, on Yinfu, Henan.

A handsome young man came up to Cao Cao and said, "My lord, I have already found out that Li Ru's army has already gone to Chang'an, and there are only [-] defenders at Hangu Pass. The general is Hu Chi'er under Niu Fu's command!"

"Well, there are still three thousand defenders! Fengxiao, do you think we can take Hangu Pass?" Cao Cao asked.

This young man was Guo Jia. After Xi Zhicai died, Cao Cao personally took Xi Zhicai's letter to invite Guo Jia. Guo Jia also saw that Cao Cao was a wise master, so he came to Cao Cao's tent. Cao Cao's military adviser.

"My lord, [-] defenders may not seem like many, but there is a natural danger in Hangu after all. Back then, the Six Eastern Kingdoms were ten times larger than Qin, but they still had to hate Hangu Pass. If we attack by force, I'm afraid we will suffer heavy losses!" Guo Jia said.

"My lord, what Feng Xiao said is that we have just pacified Sili, and many of our soldiers are new recruits. If we storm Hangu Pass, we will lose some vitality, but now that Dong Zhuo is dead, so we must go to Hangu Pass. We have to take it. If Hangu Pass is in our hands, let’s not talk about the safety of Hongnong. At that time, we will have the natural danger of Hangu to the west, the Hulao Xiongguan to the east, and the Yellow River to the north. At that time, we can go straight to Yanzhou to the east, We can capture Chang'an in the west, send troops to the north to merge the state, and enter the rich land of Nanyang in the south. It can be said that we can advance and attack, and retreat and defend, so we must take this Hangu Pass." Cao Cao's subordinate Xun Yu said.

Cao Cao nodded again and again.Xun Yu is a man who is asked to lead the army to fight, but he is not as good as Xiahou brothers in making suggestions, nor is he as good as Guo Jia Xunyou, but Xun Yu has a strategic vision and looks at things from the overall situation, so Cao Cao's opinion on Xun Yu is still the same. to listen to.

At this time, Guo Jia said: "My lord, I have a plan. I can get Hangu Pass without a single soldier!"

"What's Feng Xiao's plan, tell me quickly!" Cao Cao said.

"My lord, the guard of Hangu Pass is Hu Chi'er. Although this man is General Niu Fu, he has followed Niu Fu for many years, but he is a barbarian! Barbarians always value profits over righteousness, so the lord only needs to send a man who can speak eloquently. Bring more gold and silver treasures, and then promise him an official position, and Hu Chi'er will definitely surrender!" Guo Jia said.

"Well, good! It's just who to send for this matter?" Cao Cao asked.

Guo Jia said confidently: "I recommend a person to my lord. This person's surname is Liu Mingye, and his style name is Ziyang. He is a descendant of Liu Yan, the son of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu. Liu Ye is eloquent and eloquent. If he goes, Hu Chi'er, who can be said, will definitely come and surrender."

"Oh? Where is this person now?" Cao Cao asked.

"This person is in Luoyang now!" Guo Jia said.

"Okay, then I'll go and invite myself!"

……

Chang'an City, on Situ's Mansion.

Wang Yun and Lu Bu were sitting together.

"Fengxian, now that Li Ru and Niu Fu are surrounding Chang'an, if Li Jue and Guo Si's Xiliang army arrives in the future, Chang'an may not be safe!" Wang Yun said.

"Lord Situ, I also know, but there is nothing I can do now!" Lu Bu said.

Although Lu Bu was brave, he was not a reckless man. He also knew that Niu Fu and Li Ru were only besieging but not attacking, but they were waiting for reinforcements from Li Jue and Guo Si from Liangzhou.

"Fengxian, I think it's better to let the princes come to serve the king?" Wang Yun said.

In fact, in his heart, Wang Yun did not want the princes to serve the king. After all, Wang Yun and Lu Bu are the ones who are talking in Chang'an City, but Lu Bu is a warrior after all. Power is in your hands.But after all, life is important, so Wang Yun had no choice but to make this suggestion.

"Everything is under the arrangement of Master Situ! But far away water can't quench our thirst. The only ones who are close to us are Nanyang prefect Yuan Shu and Henan Yin Caocao, but one of them is separated by Wuguan, and the other is separated by Hangu Pass. Can we come? It's easy to say!" Lu Bu said.

"What Feng Xian said is that's why I want to invite Ma Teng, the prefect of Xiliang, to come. Ma Teng's subordinates are all Xiliang cavalry, and I heard that Ma Teng has a good relationship with the Qiang people. If they can hold back Li Jue and Guo Si When Cao Cao and Yuan Shu break through Hangu Pass and Wu Pass, won't the siege of Chang'an be resolved?" Wang Yun said.

After all, Wang Yun is a literati, and he doesn't know much about leading troops to fight, so his thinking is too idealistic.Yuan Shu and Yuan Yi are fighting fiercely, and they have no time to take care of Chang'an. Although Cao Cao is plotting Hangu Pass, it is only to get a west gate of Henan, and Cao Cao is now recruited. Cao Cao needs Time to digest the newly acquired territory and train soldiers and horses, and will not waste time on these things at all.More importantly, Chang'an is now under the power of Lu Bu and Wang Yun. Even if someone can break the siege of Chang'an, there will be no substantial benefits.

Ghost Valley.

While dodging Zhou Cang's sword, Zhang De thought, when did Zhou Cang become so powerful?
