The first thousand four hundred and thirty-four chapters, the truth of adversity
Jiguan, located at the end of the southern section of the Taihang Mountains, is a famous pass on Zhiguan Pass, one of the eight passes in Taihang Mountains.
Jiguan is not as big and famous as Tongguan, but it is the last pass in the Hebei territory of the Wei Empire. It is crucial and cannot be missed. Otherwise, the wasteland coalition led by the five Xiongnu tribes will reach Tianhe
River, and then radiate to the Han Dynasty, the world will be in danger!
For the Han Dynasty, there is no room for failure in Jiguan, otherwise the Wasteland Alliance forces will be able to attack the banks of the Tianhe River. The Han Dynasty can certainly use the danger of the Tianhe River to resist the Wasteland Alliance forces and take advantage of the geographical advantages. However, the Wasteland Alliance forces can also use the Tianhe River area to radiate radiation.
The world is completely out of control!
For the foreign tribes in the wasteland, Jiguan is a must-win, so that they can truly gain a firm foothold in the Han Dynasty and use the danger of the Tianhe River to resist the counterattack of the Han Dynasty.
At this time, Jiguan had gathered most of the forces of the Han Dynasty and the foreign tribes in the wasteland. The two sides had been facing off for nearly half a month, and they were still frantically adding troops, reinforcements, joining forces, calling on each other, etc.
Led by Cao Cao, the great emperor of the Han and Wei dynasties, he personally led the Wei Imperial Guards, Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, to sit in Jiguan.
In addition, the remnants of the Wei army in the Great Wei territory north of Tianhe have also gathered at Jiguan. The number is difficult to estimate, but is conservatively estimated at 20 million, and is still increasing.
Yuan Shufang, whose territory is located in the Central Plains of Han Dynasty, is also fully assisting this time. Not only Yuan Shu led the first general Ji Ling to come in person, but also brought many generals, famous generals and eight million troops, full of sincerity.
Even the Wu Dynasty, whose territory was far to the southeast, also came with all their strength. Sun Jian, the emperor of Wu Lie, and Sun Ce, the emperor of Wu, brought celebrities and generals such as Zhou Yu, the relegated immortal, Lu Su, the god of wealth, and Danyang, the emperor of Wu Lie, Sun Jian.
Wu Brigade, Wu Imperial Guards, Nan Wu Baqi and other elites, only the second son Sun Quan and some ministers were left to guard the Wu Dynasty.
Even the Shu Dynasty and Yuan Shaojun, who were unable to protect themselves and were defeated steadily, also sent their respective generals and famous generals.
Finally, the Four Evils, Five Demons and Nine Immortals Sect, many sects, sects, powerful families and other civil forces almost all provided support. The scale and momentum were no less than those who went to Tongguan to "fish in troubled waters", it was just a question of how much reinforcements there were!
Everyone understands the principle of lips dying and teeth falling cold, not to mention the cruelty and ferocity of the aliens in the wasteland are known to the whole world!
It can be said that during this foreign invasion of the wasteland, apart from the forces that endured humiliation and took refuge, other forces were either destroyed or disabled. Countless civilians and martyrs were slaughtered!
Jiguan, City Lord's Mansion.
Cao Cao, the great emperor of the Han and Wei dynasties, my father and son, Yuan Shu and other emperors, famous generals, celebrities, etc. gathered together.
What is surprising and unexpected is that Yuan Shao and Shu Emperor Liu Bei are also present. After all, they cannot protect themselves now, so how can they care about the Jiguan battlefield?!
Of course, the two emperors Yuan Shao and Liu Bei had just arrived, but the reinforcements had arrived a few days earlier!
As soon as Liu Bei and Yuan Shao arrived, Cao Cao immediately gathered for a military meeting, saying it was a pre-war mobilization!
Everyone was seated. Liu Bei, the Emperor of Shu, who looked extremely ugly and looked obviously tired and haggard, glanced around the audience and suddenly shouted angrily in a deep voice:
"Lihuang is still cleaning up the battlefield in Tongguan?! He hasn't come yet?! He hasn't even sent any reinforcements?!"
After a pause, his face was full of disdain, and he continued as if he was beating his chest and feet:
"The Battle of Tongguan has ended long ago, and the Qiang army's problems have been solved long ago. Now the Li army has no strong enemy. Even the emperor has come, but the Li emperor has not come yet? Do you still have the heart of the emperor and the thought of kindness?
Are the common people worried? Foreign races are foreign races. If they are not my race, their hearts must be different!"
"The Emperor of Shu must be careful! Now that we are facing a powerful enemy, we should work together to fight against the catastrophe. There must be no internal strife!"
Cao Cao, who originally wanted to appease Liu Bei, saw that Liu Bei even shouted "If you are not of my race, his heart must be different", his face changed, and he quickly pressed his hand and solemnly reminded him.
At this time, Cao Cao's condition was no better than that of Liu Bei, who was exhausted, exhausted, and haggard. It was just that the city was deeper and his endurance was stronger!
"Hmph! The Emperor is serious! If we think so, Emperor Li must also think so. What Emperor Shu said is not unreasonable..."
Yuan Shao also snorted coldly with a look of dissatisfaction and annoyance on his face, paused, and sighed with fear and jealousy:
"With hundreds of millions of people and tens of millions of territories in the northwest, Emperor Li could be so ruthless as to annihilate him in one fell swoop. If Emperor Li was from the Han Dynasty, how could he do this? Who here would do this?!"
"..."
As soon as these words came out, the expression of the whole audience changed. Even Cao Cao, who knew that at this moment, he must try his best to win over Li Huang, was speechless!
In any case, the facts are before our eyes!
It can be said that the Tongguan catastrophe will become an eternal stain on Lihuang Wuxin.
Of course, the world will have its own public opinion, and Qing history will have its own public opinion!
"Two worthy brothers, be careful and calm down! In any case, Emperor Li has indeed solved the Qiang people's serious problem in one fell swoop, greatly reducing the pressure on our side. This is also a contribution to saving the world, and we must not deny it!"
With his mind spinning, Cao Cao sighed secretly, gritted his teeth and looked around the people present seriously, finally looked at Liu Bei and Yuan Shao, and reminded him again. After a pause, he looked around the people again and asked:
"Now that the enemy is facing us, we have no way out. Let me ask you, if Emperor Li has a way to destroy the enemy in front of us, the premise is that the people within the enemy's range must be buried with him, then what choice do you make?!"
"Um?!"
Most of the people present, including Liu Bei, Yuan Shao, Sun Jian, etc., were shocked in their hearts, and they all fell silent and thought.
This question...
It’s really hard to answer!
Liu Bei thought for a while and said with a sneer: "So this is what the emperor has in mind? He wants Emperor Li to help him make plans to destroy the enemy, right? No wonder he keeps saying good things to Emperor Li! But don't forget, it's just drinking poison to quench his thirst. Although he is destroyed,
He defeated the enemy, but also destroyed the territory and his people. Is this considered a victory or a defeat?"
Cao Cao thought for a while and responded sincerely from the bottom of his heart: "Having said that, the merits outweigh the faults!"
Yuan Shao suddenly looked at Cao Cao and sneered: "It's just cold-blooded selfishness. The emperor doesn't need to put a high hat on Emperor Li, he won't appreciate it at all. Now even I and Emperor Shu are here, and Emperor Li is not here."
Well, could it be that the situation of the Lijun could be worse than that of the two parties like us?!"
"Buzz..."
Just as Cao Cao was about to answer, there was a slight buzzing sound, which made Cao Cao silently check for a moment. Suddenly he became energetic, and with a rare smile he said:
"The Emperor has just received a message. Lihuang Wuxin is coming at full speed. We will arrive in five days at the earliest and ten days at the earliest!"
"Well……"
Yuan Shao and Liu Bei, who had always been angry and resentful, froze and were speechless for a moment, but they were obviously relieved and their spirits were obviously lifted.
Even the reactions of everyone present were similar, they were all quite happy, with obvious expectations...
In fact, what Cao Cao thinks and hopes are not what Liu Bei, Yuan Shao, and even Wu Yuan Shu and others think and hope?!
During this period, Liu Bei and Yuan Shao were losing consecutive battles and losing territory. They were holding back their anger, resentment, etc., so they took the opportunity to vent their emotions!
If Li Huang Wuxin or Li Jun representatives were here, it would be a matter of debate whether they would dare to do this!
It can be said that the invasion of aliens and the crisis of the Han Dynasty did make many people put down their posture, expose their true nature, and even lose control of their emotions, etc. For example, Cao Cao? For example, Liu Bei? For example, Yuan Shao?!
This is also a different kind of friend in need is a friend indeed!
