Chapter 296
Bianshuiguan, located in the town of Bianshui east of Xingyang City, is said to have been kept here by King Mu of Zhou, named Tiger Prison.
Later generations generally believe that the Tiger Pass of Lü Bu in the Three British War is the Xianshui Pass.
It is the eastern gateway and important pass of Luoyang, with the Song Mountain in the south and the Yellow River in the north.
Judging from its importance, Lü Bu should have fought the Kwantung princes here.
However, Liu Jun found that there was still Tiger Prison Pass, which was separated from Xianshui Pass by a Xianshui River, which was equivalent to the eastern gate of Xingyang.
East of Xingyang, the terrain was flat, and I heard that the Cao army had many cavalry this time, so Tiger Prison Pass left Fu Wei to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to guard the town to prevent Cao Cao's surprise attack. Liu Jun, Zhong Xiu, and Liu Hu led a thousand forbidden troops to Xianshui Pass.
In Luoyang City, there are Liu Pan and four thousand forbidden troops, and three thousand county soldiers, it should be no problem. Under Cao Cao, the poisonous warrior Jia Xu, and Sima Yi, Liu Jun knew that he could not compare, although there was a firearm such as the invincible heavenly thunder, but it was still not steady, so he brought Zhong Xiu with him.
"Han Sheng, is Cao Jun moving?" asked Liu Zhong in the midst of Huang Zhong's tent.
"Returning to the Lord Lord, the scout and the Skynet Battalion have already sent news that Cao Cao has gathered an army of 80,000 outside the city of Jizhou, hundreds of generals, personally as the commander, with Jia Xu as the army division, ready to kill Benshuiguan.
"Eighty thousand troops, hundreds of generals, can Han Sheng be worried?" "
Lord, I only have excitement in my heart now!" Huang Zhong's voice was loud and proud, "My knife has long been hungry and thirsty
!" "Ha..." Liu Li also laughed a few times, "Han Sheng is worthy of my number one general in Jingzhou, this sounds breathless!"
80,000 troops, tens of miles of company and battalion.
Cao Cao, Jia Xu, Sima Yi, Xu Chu and others, surrounded by five hundred guards, inspected battalion by camp.
Everywhere he went, one by one, in front of the soldiers' camp, he was in high spirits and majestic. The commander of the unified army had bright armor, and immediately crossed the knife, murderous.
After the inspection, Cao Cao, Xu Chu, and Jia Xu went to the general platform, and dozens of generals lined up in four rows, sitting neatly on the war horse, their heads held high.
Behind them, the soldiers were phalanx one by one.
Cao Cao took a few steps forward and came to the edge of the stage, and none of the 80,000 soldiers dared to speak, and the audience was silent.
"Everyone, I think back then, King Ben was in Xuchang, raised an army of 80,000, and fought a decisive battle with Yuan Shao at Guandu. At that time, Yuan Shao had an army of 700,000, and many people felt that the battle would be lost. Even I did not have confidence and wanted to withdraw the troops halfway. Cao Cao stopped and looked at the boundless army under the platform, "However, the generals of this king are unwilling to withdraw, and Yuan Shao's army of 700,000 is simply a rag in the eyes of those warriors, a group of rabble. Today, King Ben raised another 80,000-strong army to fight a decisive battle against Liu Jun's Han army, do you have confidence?"
"The Wei army will win, the Wei army is invincible!" On the stage, Xu Chu pointed the sword on his waist and shouted loudly.
"The Wei army will win, the Wei army is invincible!" all the soldiers took out their weapons, raised them high, and shouted in unison.
The cold light shines on the sun and the moon, and the sword qi rushes into the sky.
"Now King Ben ordered!" As
soon as Cao Cao's words fell, the audience was silent again.
"King Ben himself is the marshal, Jia Xu is the military master, Sima Yi is the army, and Cao Zhen and Cao Hong are the vanguards!"
"Xiahou Ba, Zhang Hu, Cao Chun, and Xu Chu are the generals accompanying the army
!" "Nuo
!"
"
Xiahou Ru escorted grain and grass
!" "Nuo
!" "The army will leave tomorrow!"
Cao Cao's march was not fast, and five days later he arrived outside the Xianshui Pass. The 80,000-strong army set up a 20-li company battalion, divided into four pieces, the Chinese army of 30,000, the left and right wings of 20,000 each, the front is the 10,000 vanguard army, the entire camp is in the shape of a "mountain", echoing each other, like three sharp knives pointing directly at Xianshui Pass.
After setting up camp, Cao Cao wrote a letter and sent someone to send it to Liu Jun of Xianshuiguan.
"Master, what did Cao Cao say in the letter?" asked Huang Zhong after seeing Liu Cao finish reading the letter.
"Cao Cao asked me to meet tomorrow, without taking anyone!" Liu Jun lowered his face and a smile appeared on his face.
"Lord, this is Cao Cao's scheme, he wants to harm the lord!" Liu Hu immediately said, "The lord must not go, we just need to guard the pass, if Cao Cao wants to conquer the pass, let him taste the power of the invincible heavenly thunder!"
"In the opinion of his subordinates, this is not Cao Gong's scheme, he may just want to talk to the lord. I remember that during the Battle of Guandu, Cao Gong and Yuan Gong also discussed the situation with wine.
"Okay, tell the soldier who delivered the letter that I will meet Cao Cao before tomorrow's battle!"
"
Lord, this..."
"Liu Hu, tell me how this is Cao Cao's scheme, how did he harm me?"
Even Xu Chu can't hold King Ben hostage, let alone Cao Cao!" "
Liu Hu, don't worry!" Huang Zhong's face also looked very relaxed, "If you talk about foot battle, there are few people in this great Han world who are the opponents of the lord!" Huang
Zhong and Wei Yan had compared swords with Liu Jun, Wei Yan was in the inferiority, and Huang Zhong and Liu Jun were invincible, so he was not worried about this meeting.
The next day, Cao Ying and Bianshuiguan each dispatched 3,000 soldiers, and when the two armies were 20 meters apart, they stopped and lined up their formations.
On the Han Army's side, Huang Zhong and Liu Hu were in the front.
On Wei Jun's side, Cao Chang and Xu Chu were in the front.
The soldiers immediately set up a table in the middle of the two armies and laid straw mats on both sides of the table. Next, several soldiers brought fruit plates and wine, and placed them on the table.
Cao Cao dismounted and walked slowly towards the table, but Cao Zhang, Xu Chu, and the soldiers of the Wei army did not move.
Liu Jun also jumped off his horse and walked slowly towards Cao Cao, but Huang Zhong, Liu Hu, and the Han soldiers did not move.
The two came all the way to the opposite side of the table and looked at each other.
"Liu Chengguang, it's been more than five years since I said goodbye last time, you are more heroic
!" "Cao Mengde, the years urge people to grow old, although your ambition has not decreased, but your sideburns are spotted!" "
Ha..." Cao Cao laughed dryly, "Sit!"
The two knelt opposite each other.
"If time could be turned back, you and I would never meet in this form!"
"What does Meng De mean?" "
I will treat Chengguang with courtesy, and I will marry my daughter to you, and talk with you about poetry and poetry sooner or later, and achieve good stories in the world!"
"Ha..." Liu Jun burst out laughing after hearing this, "Meng De deceived me as a child, if time were turned back, I think Cao Mengde would never have detained our mother and son in Fancheng first, and then sent Yu Ban to kill, but in the lobby of Xiangyang, he directly took my head, right?"
