Cao Cao crosses Wu Dalang

Chapter 574

On October th, Lao Cao led an army into Juyongguan.

This Guancheng is embedded in a canyon in the Taihang Mountains, connecting Taihang and Changshan Mountains in the west, and Lulong and Jieshi in the east.

When entering the pass, Hu Sanniang looked at the three characters "Juyongguan" marked on the golden hook and iron, suddenly frowned, and criticized: "This name is not good, Juyongjuyong, mediocre people live here, since mediocre people, there are people who are mediocre." Xiongguan, how can he hold it?"

All the generals could not help but nod their heads as they sounded quite reasonable.

Cao Cao said with a smile: "This name has its own origin, but when the first emperor built the Great Wall, he moved prisoners, soldiers, and recruited husbands to settle here.

Hu Sanniang smiled coquettishly: "How can a mediocre man guard the majestic pass? Now that the pass is in the hands of your husband, it's better to change the name and hope for auspiciousness."

Cao Cao was a little moved, and thought about it: "There are several other names for this pass. It was called Xiguan in the Wei Dynasty, Naqian Pass in the Northern Qi Dynasty, and Jimen Pass and Jundu Pass in the Tang Dynasty...how about calling it Xiguan?"

Gongsun Sheng shook his head and said: "From Youzhou's point of view, it is not wrong to call it Xiguan, but according to my humble opinion, if there is a Xiguan in the future, it should be in the vast sea and desert, so it is worthy of the name."

Cao Cao knows the elegant meaning when he hears the stringed songs, and Gongsun Sheng is implying that he will be rich in the world in the future, and Xiguan should naturally be in the western border of the country, so that it can be worthy of the name.

Immediately nodded: "Sir, what you said is reasonable, but I'm overthinking it."

Hu Sanniang interrupted and said, "Actually, I'm just watching. Why not call it 'Wu Sheng Guan'? Wouldn't it be better?"

The official heard that there was a Wusheng Pass in Hubei, which was one of the three passes in Yiyang in ancient times, but it was still called Wuyang Pass at this time, and it was not renamed Wusheng until the Southern Song Dynasty, so what Hu Sanniang said did not have the same name. worry.

Gongsun Sheng nodded again and again: "The name Wu Shengguan seems to be popular, but in fact it is very particular, wonderful, wonderful."

Taizi and Kleina have been mixed with Hu Sanniang for the past few days. When the elder sister spoke, she naturally praised her without thinking, and said in unison: "Good name, good name, elder sister is really a talented woman."

You must know that there is only one talented woman in the martial arts family, and that is Li Shishi.

Hu Sanniang has always been secretly envious of her ability to be good at poetry and painting, as well as her elegant and charming temperament. Now that she is being praised as a talented woman, wouldn't her heart be in full bloom?

Originally, she wanted to purse her lips like a lady, and smile slightly, but when she grinned, she couldn't control the width of her mouth. She had a bold temperament, so she simply laughed: "Hahahaha, the two sisters have really good eyesight."

Cao Cao smiled when he saw his beloved wife was happy, and agreed: "The name of Wusheng Pass is really extraordinary. If so, I will find a stonemason and change the name of this great pass."

Therefore, in this universe, from then on, there will be no mediocrity, only Wu Sheng - this is a later story, so there is no need to mention it.

When entering the pass, Guan Sheng and others have already cleaned up the inside and outside, which is enough to create a civilized pass.

Lao Cao walked around, and suddenly saw a small temple, which was exceptionally neat and tidy, with cigarettes lingering inside.

Out of curiosity for a while, he asked: "So there is a temple in this pass. I don't know which fairy family it is enshrining?"

Guan Sheng said reservedly: "This temple...hehe, it's a coincidence that the one enshrining is Guan's ancestor Yun Changgong."

"Oh?" Lao Cao's eyes lit up, he became interested, and walked quickly into the temple, where the statue of Guan Yu, King of Wu'an, was enshrined.

The one who knows the most about the gods is Gongsun Sheng.

Seeing Lao Cao looking up at the statue, he felt a little excited, so he explained on the sidelines: "Back then, Taizu of Song Dynasty paid homage to the Temple of King Wucheng, observed the two corridors to honor the famous generals, pointed at him with his cane, and said that he was not good at killing and surrendering, so he was expelled from the temple. , and Taoyuan was closed, and they were also expelled."

Lao Cao didn't know such allusions. He frowned and said, "Both Guan and Zhang are enemies of ten thousand people, peerless warriors, loyal and righteous, why did Song Taizu act like this?"

Guan Sheng sighed and said: "Taizu's statement that the ancestors were captured by the enemy country is not enough to speak of force. Yidegong was greedy for drinking and mistreated the soldiers, so he was removed together."

Du Po was nicknamed Sai Zhang Fei, and he was immediately unhappy when he heard it: "Hmph, the old emperor has no eyes!"

Lao Cao was in a complicated mood - when Sun Quan sent Guan Yutou, he also opened the box to make fun of it, but I can do this kind of thing, why do you?
With a low face, he sneered and said: "The white jade is slightly flawed, and the flaws can't hide the beauty! How can there be a perfect man in the world? This guy is so generous, no wonder he is struggling in Zhao Song's martial arts and is getting poorer. Humph! If this person was born when heroes are born, Is it his turn to rule the country?"

He originally wanted to reprimand Zhao Kuangyin for only being able to bully orphans and widows, but then he thought about it, wouldn't he be scolding himself?Quickly swallowed it back to his stomach, only talking about the lack of martial arts in the Song Dynasty.

Gongsun Sheng didn't know what he was thinking, and secretly admired him: It really is the emperor who came to the world, very heroic, people like the Taizu of this dynasty dare to criticize Zang.

He didn't know that Lao Cao was not only heroic, but in Lao Cao's eyes, Song Taizu was just a junior, so naturally he didn't have much awe.

Gongsun Sheng said smoothly: "Not only Bai Qi, Guan Zhang, but also Wu Qi, Sun Bin, Lian Po, Han Xin and more than people who were driven out of the Wu Temple together."

Cao Cao laughed loudly: "These sages are all people who use soldiers like gods. From my point of view, they are the ones who have their own hearts and are not enough to use those heroes, so I am not happy to see them."

Gongsun Sheng said again: "It's the officials of this dynasty who love Guan Yu very much. They were first named 'Zhonghui Gong' and then 'Wu'an King'. I heard from my colleagues before that they seemed to want to add the word righteousness and bravery. 'The righteous and brave King Wu'an'."

Cao Cao shook his head and laughed: "I have always heard the words and deeds of Zhao officials, but this time, I can agree with them."

Hu Sanniang said: "Hey! In this way, the Liao people are also sensible. Husband, you think, the righteous and brave King Wu'an, and protect our Wushengguan, wouldn't they complement each other."

Lao Cao nodded slightly, took three sticks of incense sticks, lit a candle next to them, and respectfully inserted them into the incense burner.

All the heroes and generals Lao Cao respected Guan Yu so much, no matter whether they knew his origin or not, they would not be resigned to the descendants, and they burned incense and worshiped each other.

In a short while, the censer was densely filled with countless incense sticks, and the smoke rolled up like blue clouds, tumbling and relaxing.

Gongsun Sheng let out a "huh", stepped forward to look at the flow of the cigarette, pinched his fingers incessantly, and said in surprise: "The incense is strong, the red light is high fever, the sea of ​​green smoke is a sea of ​​clouds, and the gods know the spirit! Brother, brothers, Guan Gong shows his spirit, I shall be blessed."

Everyone was startled when they heard this, and when they looked at the statue again, it was indeed faintly vivid, their hearts were shaken, and they fell to their knees involuntarily.

Lao Cao did not kneel, but stood alone in front of people, looking through the thick smoke, but seeing Guan Gong's eyes seemed to be slightly opened, he suddenly felt emotional, and murmured: "Yun Chang, I want to use you in my life but I can't get it. Unexpectedly, after thousands of years, there is still such a fate-the current emperor of the Han family is cowardly and stupid, and he does not look like a master. I want to replace him, restore the land and open up borders, clean up the government and love the people, and make the Han family majestic and reappear in the world! Yun Chang, there is no more Uncle Liu in this world, you are a god, you should help me to go smoothly."

After saying that, give a deep salute.

After the ceremony, Lao Cao took one more look at the statue of Guan Gong, turned around and walked out of the temple, and said loudly: "In the future, all the city gates under my command will be erected as temples of Guan Gong for protection."

All the heroes got up and followed him out of the temple. Gongsun Sheng caught up two steps, and said in a low voice: "Brother, just now, the younger brother saw the shape of the fireworks, but it is a good omen. Someone from afar will come to obey him, so that brother can add more powerful generals to his command."

Lao Cao knew that he was a man of great morals and deeds, so he believed it without a doubt, and thought to himself: Could it be Dong Ping and Zhang Qing?
Just thinking about it carefully, these two people don't seem to be far away people. When they were confused, they suddenly saw a small school rushing to report: "General Zhang Shun sent someone to send a letter quickly!"

Cao Cao and Gongsun Sheng looked at each other and shouted at the same time: "I'm afraid it shouldn't be in this letter?"

There are different teachings: let's change Juyong to Wusheng, and think Song Zu is responsible for Guan Gong.The curling incense cloud contains auspicious omens, flying to report that people from far away want to make meritorious deeds.

　With regard to the tactics of attacking Juyongguan, it was indeed intended to surround the points to fight for aid-a brother pointed out, can't you have some new tricks?
　　Let's think about it!So I studied it carefully for several hours, and later learned from the method of conquering Juyongguan when Mongolia attacked the Kingdom of Jin.

　　By the way, the Mongolian general who led the army was an acquaintance——Guo Jing's master, Jebe!
　　One more thing: the meaning of Luozhou mentioned above and the target of the Chrysanthemum Army's attack to the east should actually be Luanzhou. I saw a reminder from Xiongtai and checked it. I misunderstood the traditional Chinese characters on the map and corrected it. And thank you very much.
