Chapter 1177: Xuanyuan Pass Defenders

The morning sun has not yet risen from the end of the horizon, and the eastern horizon is only faintly covered with a white glow the color of a fish's belly.

The streets in Luoyang City are still dark.

A detachment of thousands of cavalry, slowly marching along the streets.

The cavalry in the middle of the queue, all with snow-white feathers on their heads, were the tiger guards under Zhao Yun's command, and on both sides of the queue were hundreds of dragoon guards with golden feathers on their helmets.

The two teams walked in one place, but they did not mix with each other, and from above, they looked like a piece of white jade with gold trim.

At the head of the procession were dozens of palace guards riding tall northern horses.

The two fiery red feathers on the guard's helmet, although not as long as the feathers of the feathers of the feather forest guard, were also slightly shaking in the breeze, like a ball of jumping flames.

Walking at the front of the team was Liu Wei wearing a golden armor.

Since he became the king of Qin, Liu Wei has never gone out to fight in person, and this armor is rarely worn.

Deng Zhan and Zhao Yu rode horses on left and right, walking beside Liu Wei.

Deng Zhan on the left is also wearing a golden armor, but his armor is slightly thinner than Liu Wei's, and the gold is not as shiny as Liu Wei's armor.

Zhao Yun on the right is dressed in a white robe and silver armor, and the war horse under his crotch is also a snow-white hair.

Behind the servants were Pang Tong, who was dressed as a scribe, and Wang Liu and Wang Zhen, who were wearing armor.

This team can be said to be the leader in the Great Qin army, in addition to the palace guards and Yulin guards who stayed behind, the three guards of the Qin army actually dispatched two whole teams.

Taking advantage of the twilight of the sky, Liu Wei led the team to the city gate quickly.

The soldiers guarding the city gate saw the dragoon guards and tiger guards coming from a distance, and they were ready to open the city gate.

When the team was very close to the city gate, the soldiers of the Qin army at the city gate suddenly saw that Liu Wei was also in the queue, and they were all stunned for a moment, and the officers leading them hurriedly ran towards the team.

"City gate guard Sun Hu, knock to see His Highness!" When he ran six or seven steps away from Liu Bian, the officer hurriedly stopped, clasped his hands into fists and saluted Liu Bian.

Reining in the war horse, Liu Wei raised his hand towards the officer and said, "Open the city gate, I'm going to go out of the city and walk away!" ”

"No!" If Zhao Yun and Deng Zhan led the army here, Sun Hu would definitely still have to check their warrants, but it was Liu Bian, the king of Qin, who led the team, even if he was given a hundred dares, he would definitely not dare to ask for the warrants.

The entire Great Qin belongs to the King of Qin, and asking the King of Qin for a warrant will really make the whole world laugh and lose their big teeth.

After receiving Liu Wei's order, Sun Hu clenched his fists and bowed back two steps, then turned around, ran quickly towards the city gate, and shouted to the soldiers guarding the city gate: "Your Highness has an order, open the city gate quickly!" ”

At the same time as he ran towards Liu Wei, the soldiers in the city gate were already ready to open the city gate, and when they heard Sun Hu's shout, a group of soldiers holding the city gate hurriedly opened the gate.

The heavy city gate slowly opened, and Liu Wei, who was standing on the street, waited until the city gate opened, and then beckoned his hand behind him and shouted: "Get out of the city!" ”

At the same time as he gave the order, he gently clamped his legs towards the horse's belly, and rode out of Luoyang City first.

Zhao Yun and Deng Zhan hugged him left and right, and Wang Liu and Wang Zhen didn't dare to fall half a step.

Out of Luoyang, Liu Wei led the team all the way to the east, but after half a day, he arrived at Xuanyuan Pass.

Seeing the pass of Xuanyuan Pass from afar, Liu Wei raised his hand and pointed forward, and asked Deng Zhan and Zhao Yun beside him, "Is that Xuanyuan Pass?" ”

"Returning to His Highness, it is Xuanyuan Pass!" Looking forward in the direction of Liu Wei's finger, Zhao Yun opened his mouth and replied: "After passing the pass, you can reach Xuchang in just one day!" ”

Nodding his head, Liu Wei didn't say anything more, his legs clamped towards the horse's belly, urging the war horse to go faster.

The tiger ben and the dragoon soldiers who followed Liu Wei out of the city, each of them rode a northern horse under their crotch, and when they saw that he had quickened their speed, they also rode their horses faster.

In the battle with Cao Cao, the Qin army successively captured Chitu and other divine horses, but Liu Wei did not leave a single horse, and they were all rewarded to Lu Bu, Zhao Yun and Wei Yan.

Although the war horse under his crotch is in better condition than ordinary northern horses, it is much worse than the divine horse ridden by Zhao Yun.

Liu Wei sped up, Zhao Yun followed very easily, and Deng Zhan and the others also followed closely, always staying half a step from the left and right.

Since seeing the Xuanyuan Pass, they have been walking for about an hour, and Liu Wei and the others have arrived outside the pass.

When he arrived at the pass, Liu Wei lifted the reins and stopped the war horse.

Before he could speak, Zhao Yun beside him had already raised his face and shouted to Qin Jun on the gate: "Your Highness enters the customs, wait for the door to open the door as soon as possible!" ”

The Qin army at the pass had already seen the arrival of the two guards and horses, the tiger ben and the dragoon, and the generals guarding the pass were ready to open the gate.

Suddenly heard Zhao Yun shouting "Your Highness enters the customs", the general was stunned, and looked carefully outside the gate with both hands on the battlements.

At this look, he suddenly gasped.

There is no one else outside the gate, it is Liu Wei, the king of Qin.

When he was in Luoyang, Liu Wei was not a simple person, he would often walk in the market, and often went to various military camps, so the soldiers of the Qin army were already very familiar with him.

Seeing that it was really Liu Wei who came to Xuanyuan Pass, the partial general hurriedly shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Your Highness is here, hurry up and follow this general out of the customs to greet him!" ”

The Qin army at the pass has been guarding Xuanyuan Pass for a long time.

Guarding a pass is not the same as guarding a city.

Stationed in the city, the soldiers could often go to the market and take a walk, but they could guard the passes, and all they could go to was some small villages in the surrounding area.

For many days in Guanshang Town, the soldiers were very depressed, and many even had a feeling that they had been ignored by the superiors.

Suddenly learned that the King of Qin was coming, and the soldiers of the Qin army on the gate were suddenly boiling, and immediately many people ran down the high wall with the generals.

After going down the wall, the general personally opened the gate of the pass with a group of Qin soldiers, bowed with his fists, and stood outside the gate, waiting for Liu Wei and others to come.

Seeing the gate of Xuanyuan Pass open from a distance, Liu Wei shook the reins and rode his horse to the gate.

Zhao Yun, Deng Zhan, and everyone behind him also followed behind and walked towards Xuanyuan Pass.

When he attacked Xuanyuan Pass, Liu Wei did not plan to take it immediately, but Lu Bu and Jia Xu took the pass in one fell swoop because of greed, so that many subsequent battles were very difficult.

On the battlefield, it is not difficult to lose, and it is even easier to win.

The most difficult thing is that you can't be defeated, and you can't win on all fronts, so that the battle situation becomes clear.

The Qin army, which fought with the Qingzhou army in the Xuanyuan Pass area, faced this situation.

Riding a war horse and walking to the pass, Liu Wei looked down at the general who was standing by the side of the gate with his fists in his fists, and asked him, "How long have you been guarding this place?" ”

"Back to Your Highness!" I didn't expect Liu Wei to speak to him, and the general was excited for a while, and hurriedly said: "I've been stationed at Xuanyuan Pass for half a year!" ”

"Half a year!" Nodding, Liu Wei didn't say anything more, shook off the reins, and rode his horse into the pass.

The tiger ben and the dragon cavalry two guards who followed him also followed him into Xuanyuan Pass.

As soon as he entered the pass, Liu Wei saw that there were already more than 1,000 Qin soldiers waiting in the pass, and when the soldiers of the Qin army saw him, they all raised their swords in their hands and shouted: "King Qin is mighty!" ”

"The Qin army is mighty!" The soldiers guarding the pass shouted, Liu Wei reined in his horse, straightened up, and shouted to the soldiers: "The soldiers are guarding the pass, and they have worked hard, and this king has thanked the soldiers!" ”

Shouting these words, Liu Wei clasped his hands into fists, rode on horseback, and arched his hand towards the Qin army in formation.

More than 1,000 soldiers guarding Xuanyuan Pass have been guarding this pass for days, although it is not far from the city, but they can't leave it for half a step, and their hearts are already depressed.

But when Liu Wei shouted to them, "Thank you to the soldiers", all the Qin army's hearts were warm, and they suddenly felt that guarding the pass and paying the best reward at this moment.

With his legs pinched towards the horse's belly, Liu Wei rode his horse towards the Qin soldiers in array.

Zhao Yun and the others hurriedly followed him.

When he was only more than ten steps away from the more than 1,000 soldiers guarding the pass, Liu Wei rode a horse, walked back and forth horizontally, nodded, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and shouted to the soldiers guarding the pass: "The army is neat, this is the demeanor of my Daqin soldiers!" ”

It's been a long time since I've seen this King of Qin, but now he suddenly came to Xuanyuan Pass in person, and the soldiers guarding the pass were all excited in their hearts, and when they looked at him, their eyes were still flashing with excitement.

While walking back and forth in front of the large array of soldiers guarding the pass, Liu Wei shouted to them: "Guarding the pass for half a year, you wait for Luoyang in the west and Xuchang in the east, but it is the miserable life of the pass, which really makes the king feel inexplicably moved!" ”

Listening to Liu Wei's words, the soldiers guarding the pass clenched their blades tightly one by one, and some of them even trembled slightly with excitement.

The soldiers of the Qin army have all gone through the battlefield.

On the battlefield, they never feel fear, let alone tremble.

But at this moment, in Xuanyuan Pass, they saw King Qin, but they were excited and couldn't restrain their emotions.

"When this king left Luoyang, he was thinking on the way, how the defenders of Xuanyuan Pass were doing!" The soldiers were quiet, so quiet that even the breathing between them could be clearly heard, and Liu Wei then shouted: "Sue the king, what do you need here, but if the king can do it, he will definitely prepare for you!" ”

As the king of Qin, he actually personally handled the needs of the soldiers guarding the pass, and the soldiers of the Qin army lined up to meet Liu Wei looked at each other one by one, not knowing what to say!
