1.1 The difficulty of the end
"The poem says, 'Half of those who walk a hundred miles are ninety.'" This is also the end of the road. ”
Since King Ji led the troops to detain the pass, Song Jian was like sitting on pins and needles, and he was shocked overnight. It coincided with the departure of the Qiang Canal and the emptiness of the garrison. It should have been more vigilant. However, when he heard that Diao Linghun was leading the troops to help, his heart suddenly relaxed. I thought to myself, I should set up a banquet and entertain myself. As a result, the state of mind quietly collapsed between this flickering and loosening.
After three glasses of wine, he was under heavy pressure, and his state of mind, which was already on the verge of the limit, completely collapsed. Reckless and reckless, reckless, disregarding the overall situation. Love wine and greedy glasses, and even get drunk.
Under the so-called heavy pressure, it is like walking on thin ice. Suddenly relaxed, then dissolved.
When I woke up, I was already a prisoner.
Xiongguan changed the king's flag and entered the thistle king.
The wheat harvest in Huangxian County has ended. The particles are returned to the warehouse, and the people should have no worries about food and clothing. Complete the handover with the remaining officials. Liu Bei then led the troops to set off, traveled more than 60 miles west into the east entrance of Longban, traveled more than 60 miles through the valley, and settled in the Great Earthquake Pass.
Liangzhou Thorn Shi Song Xiao also accompanied.
Longshan, in later generations, there is a distinction between north and south. The North Longshan is Liupan Mountain, and the South Longshan is Guanshan.
The big earthquake pass, the west slope is steep, the surrounding mountains are shielded, and only a canyon between the peaks can reach the pass. Its landform is in the shape of "concave", which is conducive to the garrison. The east and west pass roads are all wide and wide, and the pebble road is paved, and the passage is convenient.
The thieves sent 100,000 people to rebuild the Xiongguan. There are camps, fortresses, barracks, and facilities built in the pass. Along the mountain row to build beacons, forts, open up a mountain stone path and an overhead overlay road to connect. Looking from afar, there are many castles, scattered and well-guarded. Like a coiled dragon, entrenched on the top of Longshan.
It can be said that no expense is spared.
Close the wall, stones, rolling wood, fire oil, gold juice, hoarded enough. The arrow tower towers, and the bed crossbow shoots a thousand steps from afar. Such a strong pass, if it is attacked, it will inevitably lose its troops. Besides, the five battalions under his command are mostly cavalry. Siege the city with cavalry, the wise do not do.
From the beginning, Liu Bei had no intention of attacking.
In the "concave" type of Guancheng, there is a sufficient amount of grain and straw. The camps and forts scattered all over the vicinity did not worry about eating and drinking. The thief's heart of stubbornness is obvious.
Building a building on the Sakami is also what the Qiang people are good at. The slope is first erected with piles, and then a heavy building is built, which is also a dry column building.
"Longsaka Jiuqu, I don't know how many miles high." "The road twists and turns." It's Longshan.
Liu Bei looked around and nodded happily. Xiongguan should be used greatly.
Seki Lobby.
Liu Bei was in the main position, and Wenwu Lie sat on the side.
The Great Earthquake guard Song Jian, tied up with five flowers, his face was like ashes, and he was escorted into it by the embroidered clothes.
The captive looked up. Liu Bei spoke softly.
As soon as he met Liu Bei's eyes, Song Jian lowered his head again.
"Do you know who Lone is?" Liu Bei asked again.
"The south is called lonely, and he is the king of thistles." Song Jianwen replied.
"Now that the family is a prisoner, what are you going to do?" Liu Beisan asked.
"The name of the thistle king is like thunder." Song Jian laughed miserably: "If you rebel against the three clans, how can the family be spared." ”
Liu Bei said again: "On Longban, there are still many beacons along the mountain. The thieves in the fort are unwilling to surrender. Are you willing to make meritorious deeds? ”
"If you say that you will descend to the people, will the king pardon my family?" Song Jian asked.
"Not impossible." Liu Bei replied.
"So, I'm willing to give it a try."
"Okay." Liu Bei waved his hand and ordered the embroidered clothes officer to escort him down.
When he came out of the hall, he was passing by Yan Zhong, the military advisor who was in the dust.
Song Jian was startled at first, and then smiled miserably. Obviously, it was a glimpse of the clues.
"Yan Zhong pays a visit to the king." Xiliang celebrities approached and bowed.
"Yan Gong, please get up." Liu Bei stretched out his hand to help: "Sit." ”
"Thank you, the king." Yan Zhong bowed again and stood up again, standing at the end of his seat.
"If this battle is won, Yan Gong should take the first credit." Liu Bei said with a smile.
"The old man doesn't dare to be greedy." Yan Zhong sighed: "Being in the enemy camp, suffering day and night with a group of anti-thieves and snakes. When I saw the king in person, I felt at ease. ”
Liu Bei nodded lightly: "Gong Yan's heart, loneliness has been known." The reason why he didn't wait for the victory was that he abandoned Han Sui overnight and went to the Great Earthquake Pass. Yan Zhong's heart, how could Liu Bei not know.
"Jia Cheng ordered the old man to offer the strategy of 'making a cocoon to bind himself and catching turtles in an urn'. The thieves have two male passes, and only one of them needs to fall, and it is inevitable to catch turtles in the urn. Therefore, the starry night came to vote. Yan Zhong bowed again: "If you can't start and finish well, you still hope that the king will be compassionate." ”
Liu Bei praised it very much: "The poem says, 'Both clear and philosophical, in order to protect his body, sleep all night and slack, and do things alone'." There is nothing wrong with what Yan Gong did. ”
Thinking about it carefully, Yan Zhong's choice of timing was very ingenious. Seeing that the general trend was about to come to fruition, Han Sui took advantage of Han Sui to take care of him and left. By the time he arrived at the Great Earthquake Pass, Liu Bei had also broken through. And so it goes. The position of Liangzhou Thorn History is naturally stable and stable.
Yan Zhong was prescient. Otherwise, he will not say "good and peaceful".
When it can be used.
"Newspaper-" An embroidered official entered the hall to report: "There are several Qiang canals, which are coming to the Great Earthquake Pass." ”
Liu Bei said with a smile: "Qiang has been riding back and forth for three days, and Xiongguan has changed its banner. ”
The shogunate Zuo Cheng Xun Yu said: "Qiang rides like the wind. Sacrifice to the heavens for three days, and be isolated from the world. Presumably, I don't know that Xiongguan has fallen. The lord may be able to implement the strategy of 'mixing fish and eyes'. ”
The military secretary Kong Tian Feng also nodded: "Xun Cheng's plan is very clever. The lord can make the carving zero muddy and greet him with his department. The sergeants under his command changed into thieves' clothes and armor, and the Song Jianjun flag was re-erected at the head of the city. Lure the Qiang into the camp. Then surround it on all sides and take it in one fell swoop. ”
"This is also catching a turtle in an urn." Jun Zheng was frustrated.
Liu Bei nodded happily and ordered someone to arrange it.
Among the 36 Qiang Canals, several of them are stationed at the Great Earthquake Pass, and they know that the matter is very important. When the sacrifice is over, he returns in the starry night. I am afraid that I will come and go for three days and become elbows and armpits. Seeing the flag covering the sun in the distance, everything is as usual. The first prince of the north carved zero muddy, and greeted him with the crowd. Several Qiangqu finally felt at ease.
Thousands of Qiang rode this road and settled in their respective camps. From beginning to end, I didn't feel any difference.
Three days of round trip, several nights of sleepless, physically and mentally exhausted. After entering the camp, he fell asleep.
Wait for a few Qiang Qu to be awakened by the cold water. Only then did I realize that the situation was not right.
The person in the hall was not Song Jian. But......
"Phew!" There was a thunderclap from the sky. Then there was a reckless person like an iron tower who scolded: "In front of the thistle, the king of thistle did not kneel down quickly to salute." ”
Thistle King ...... Face?
Qiangqu was terrified. The two strands of war, and some people defecated on the spot.
Biting his lip, blood dripping from it. That's when I believed it. It's not a nightmare, but it's better than a nightmare.
"Mountains and grass people, worship, meet the king!" Qiangqu bowed down in terror. Their teeth trembled, and they were cold, like falling into an ice cave.
The king of thistle has a great reputation, and he is really afraid.
Liu Bei was noncommittal: "Because of trembling? ”
"Because of it, because of ......"
Liu Bei said again: "Gu once heard that the Qiang people once swore to the sky in front of Duan Taiwei: there will be no rebellion forever. Why do you go back on your word? ”
"......" At the moment of life and death, Qiang Qu forcibly spoke: "It's because of it, because I was bewitched by the evil magic of the Yellow Turban thieves and lost my mind." ”
Liu Bei bared his teeth and smiled: "Slaughter this person and his subordinates." ”
"Whoa!"
"The king spares his life!" Qiangqu kowtowed heavily, and even his forehead cracked, and his face was covered with blood: "It's just because of the interests of the villain, and the intention of seeing wealth." Seeing the chaos in the Kanto region, he wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob and take revenge! ”
