Five is actually just a number and has no special meaning.
The so-called immortal master who stayed in Ma Teng's backyard was none other than Zuo Ci, one of the four great immortals of Black Ice. There were four great immortals in Black Ice. Zhang Jiao, the northern immortal, died in the Yellow Turban Uprising.
The Southern Immortal Chang Yu Ji was killed by Dian Wei's halberd. The Eastern Immortal Chang Guan Ren was a figure who never saw his tail. Some people say that he went on a cruise on the sea and has not returned yet. Others say that he traveled north and south and broke away from the black ice. In short
This person disappeared and even Hei Bing could not find him. The Western Immortal is this Zuo Ci.
When Zuo Ci took office as the Immortal Chief of the West, he wandered to Liangzhou. Liangzhou was a place where Han, Qiang, and Huns lived together. Ma Teng's ancestors were General Fubo of the Han Dynasty, and they were deeply influenced by the people of Liangzhou and the Qiang.
Ma Teng's mother was a princess of the Qiang people. Ma Teng had extraordinary appearance and superb martial arts, and was powerful in Xiliang. Whether Han people, Qiang people or Huns, they were all in awe of Ma Teng.
It was precisely because of this that Zuo Ci came up with such an advanced method of hiding in the city. By chance, with the cooperation of everyone in Hei Bing, he took advantage of his reputation as an immortal and lived in Ma Teng's house. Dong Zhuo left
Later, Xiliang gradually became a mess. Zuo Ci saw the opportunity and took advantage of Ma Teng's identity and bravery to join forces with Han Sui. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the imperial court to suppress the rebellion, Zuo Ci freed up Ma Teng's presence and controlled Liangzhou together with Han Sui.
.
Whenever Zuo Ci encountered trouble, he would use this nonsensical image that the gods said, making Ma Teng elusive. When he won, he believed Zuo Ci's words. Gradually, Ma Teng developed a habit of being troubled by big things.
You must ask Zuo Ci about his rules. This time Ma Teng was preparing to send troops to Chang'an, and Zuo Ci used this method to guide Ma Teng, hoping that he would act according to his own purpose.
According to Zuo Ci's original intention, Wu is not referring to anything else, but the Five Dou Rice Road in Hanzhong. The founder of the Five Dou Rice Road is named Zhang Daoling, who is from Fengyi, Pei State. It is said that he is the eighth grandson of Zhang Liang. When he was seven years old, he was immersed in reading the Tao Te Ching.
", "River Map" and "Luoshu", he led the way. At the age of nineteen, he set up an account to give lectures, and later served as the magistrate of Jiangzhou. At the age of twenty-four, he married the Sun family. Zhang Daoling set up twenty-four governance in Yizhou for the purpose of cloth.
An institution that transforms the Tao. Anyone who joins the Tao pays five buckets of rice as a letter, and later generations call it the "Five Bucks of Rice Way".
The current Heavenly Master Zhang Lu is the grandson of Zhang Daoling. After Zhang Daoling's death, Zhang Lu's father Zhang Heng continued his path. After Zhang Heng's death, Zhang Lu succeeded him as the leader. Zhang Lu's mother was romantic in nature and beautiful in appearance. She was regarded as a rare beauty in Yizhou. She was the same as the shepherd of Yizhou at that time.
Liu Yan had a very close relationship. Through his mother's relationship with Liu Yan, Zhang Lu gained Liu Yan's trust and was appointed as the governor.
In order to expand his own strength and to open the gateway from Yizhou to the outside of the mountains, Liu Yan sent Zhang Lu and other commander Zhang Xiu to lead troops to attack Su Gu, the prefect of Hanzhong. After Zhang Xiu killed Su Gu, Zhang Lu killed Zhang Xiu again.
, captured his troops and horses, cut off Xiegu, and under Liu Yan's instruction, killed the envoys sent by the imperial court to appease him. Gradually he gained a foothold in Hanzhong.
After Liu Yan's death, Liu Zhang succeeded to the throne. Liu Zhang sensed Zhang Lu's intention to establish Hanzhong on his own and sent people to transfer Zhang Lu back many times. Zhang Lu used various excuses to shirk the situation and even killed the envoys sent by Liu Zhang. Liu Zhang
Furious, he executed Zhang Lu's mother and the whole family, and sent Pang Xi to lead his troops to attack Zhang Lu, but Zhang Lu was defeated. Most of Zhang Lu's tribes were in Bajun, so Liu Zhang named Pang Xi as Bajun.
When the prefect Zhang Lu heard this, he immediately sent people to attack Bajun. He then separated Hanzhong and became a vassal.
Hei Bing has his own branch in Yizhou and Xiliang, but Hanzhong is under the control of Wu Dou Mi Dao. The people's thoughts have been baptized by Zhang Lu, and Hei Bing cannot gain a foothold. Zuo Ci naturally understands this and secretly sent someone to
He instigated Liu Zhang to capture Hanzhong, but unfortunately it was not as expected. This time Ma Teng sent troops to Chang'an, Zuo Ci wanted to use Ma Teng's power to capture Hanzhong, so he mentioned this five sons.
The calligrapher looked at the big Wuzi on the ground, then looked up at Ma Teng: "I wonder what the general wants to ask?"
Ma Teng said: "I am a man marching and fighting, so naturally I am asking about the war!"
"Hmm...!" The calligrapher thought for a long time, and it seemed extremely difficult to decide. After a long time, he said: "Five, from two, from Yao, two represents heaven and earth, and Yao represents intertwining, which means noon.
Since the general wants to ask about the war, I'm afraid it will be more troublesome than anything else!"
"Ah!" Ma Teng was shocked: "What's the explanation?"
Mr. Zhizi said: "Noon is when the sky and the earth intersect with each other. The sun begins to set in the west, the weather gradually becomes cooler, and it is not suitable to fight because of the lack of people and horses!"
"Father, don't listen to this monster's nonsense!" Ma Chao erased the words on the ground with a few kicks and said to Ma Teng: "War relies on soldiers and horses. Our Xiliang cavalry is invincible in the world, and little Chang'an is not a problem at all.
The battle can be fought!"
"General, are you planning to attack Chang'an?" The calligrapher's eyes lit up, and the expression on his face suddenly turned from worry to joy: "If so, this is not the solution!"
Ma Teng nodded: "How come there are different interpretations of this word?"
The calligrapher smiled slightly: "Things in the world are changing rapidly. If you don't calculate one thing, you will be completely wrong. What's more, God's will is even more elusive." As the calligrapher said, he wrote another five on the ground: "Five, there are five again."
The meaning of the main entrance of the road is the east, west, south, north, and center. Chang'an is the capital of our Han Dynasty. The energy from all directions gathers here, which is the center of the world. Chang'an is surrounded by four passes, which act as its barrier.
It also divides the world into east, west, north and south. Such key points are unique in the entire Han Dynasty, and these five points refer to here!"
Everyone nodded while tasting. The calligrapher continued: "In ancient times, there were five emperors, and there were five hegemons. Today, Cao Cao in the north, Sun Quan in the east, Long Fei in the south, and Liu Zhang in the west. The only one missing is the middle one. General Chang'an is the one.
This Chinese leader is the fifth overlord in the world! This is a good sign!"
"Hahahaha..." Ma Teng laughed. He had been frowning since he left the room in the backyard, and it was only then that he finally regained his former domineering attitude: "Listening to Mr.'s explanation, I now understand the old god's meaning. It's profound.
It’s unpredictable, it’s profound! I, my father and I, and the rest of us haven’t even figured out what it means, come on! Give me a big reward!”
He gave two ingots of gold to Mr. Word Tester, and asked the old butler to accompany him to the best wine shop in the city for a delicious meal before sending him away. Ma Teng was in a good mood, and in order to match the five words, he didn't have to look at the day.
, he decided to set out with the entire army in five days.
Long Fei was also reorganizing his army. As soon as Cao Cao's troops came to the border, Long Fei immediately reported the critical situation facing Jingzhou in the "Dahan Daily". After the people learned about the situation, they donated food and materials one after another. Many young people came and went.
Crowds of people flocked to the military camp to defend their homes and country, and the whole Jingzhou was in a state of excitement. Long Fei arranged for Li Ru and Wang Wei to collect grain and grass from various places and transport them to the front line. Huang Yueying and Ma Jun were ordered to supervise the weapons manufacturing. Teams of soldiers were among the people.
Departing from Xiangyang amidst cheers, they rushed to the battlefield.
Long Fei had just returned home, sat down, picked up the teapot on the table and had a drink. As he was drinking water, Xu Shu rushed in happily, shaking the bamboo slips in his hand as he ran: "
Lord, good news, good news!" Without paying attention, he tripped over his own robe and almost fell down.
Dian Wei chuckled and said, "When did our Lord Xu become so unruly? It's really rare!"
Xu Shu was happy, but did not have the same experience as him. He patted the dust on his body, rushed into the room, and handed the things in his hand to Long Fei: "Lord, good news, Ma Teng! Xiliang Ma Teng mobilized 50,000 troops to set off from Tianshui.
We are heading straight towards Chencang and are attacking Sanguan. Chang'an is in danger! Let's see how Cao Cao handles this!"
Long Fei put down the teapot in his hand, unfolded the bamboo slips, read the words on it, and let out a long breath: "Okay! Finally Pang Tong didn't deceive me!"
"Huh?" Xu Shu was stunned: "What does this have to do with Pang Tong?"
Long Fei smiled slightly: "Yuanzhi didn't know that as early as when he was in Yecheng a year ago, Pang Tong had already seen that Cao Cao would go south soon. At that time, he suggested that I contact Xiliang Ma Teng and instigate Ma Teng when Cao Cao went south.
When I sent troops to Chang'an to contain Cao Cao, I invited Pang Tong to help, but he didn't agree at the time. It seems that he still remembered my words!"
Xu Shu's smile stopped abruptly, and he asked doubtfully: "Pang Tong is a general of Hei Bing, why would he help us?"
Long Fei said: "There are not only stubborn people like Zhuge Liang in the black ice. Pang Tong is much smarter than Zhuge Liang and has a far-sighted vision. He sees the people of the world. I sincerely invite you. Although Pang Tong did not join us, he is everywhere
We save each other for the sake of the people of the world, and this man is our greatest benefactor!"
In order to command this battle more conveniently, Cao Cao moved the command post from Yecheng to Dongjun. As his former base, all facilities here are relatively complete and it is closer to the major armies. While commanding the mobilization of troops and horses, he also raised funds
The necessary food and fodder were about to be completed, and the war was about to begin. Zhang Ji, the governor of Chang'an, suddenly sent an urgent report.
After seeing this, Cao Cao was furious: "Ma Teng, Ma Teng, you are really a villain and a renegade person!" He raised his hand and threw the battle report in his hand to the ground.
Cheng Yu slowly picked it up, took a cursory glance, and put it back on Cao Cao's desk. He frowned: "Chang'an is the gateway to the Central Plains. Our troops are currently on the front line. If there is a loss in Chang'an, I am afraid that
Disaster from behind!"
Cao Cao sat down again and said: "This Ma Teng won't attack in the morning or in the evening, but he attacks at this time. How should we respond?"
Cheng Yu said: "There are not many troops in Chang'an, so we might not be able to defend it for a long time. We should send reinforcements immediately!"
"Where are the troops and horses coming from? Where are they drawn from?"
Cheng Yu pondered for a while: "The soldiers in Hefei are only to lure the enemy, they can be adjusted!"
Dong Zhao shook his head: "From Hefei to Chang'an, I'm afraid Chang'an will be broken long ago. For the current plan, we can only mobilize troops from Changshe!"
Cao Cao sighed: "Hey! Why doesn't God help me? Why? This matter is inseparable from that Long Fei. When I kill Ma Teng, I will definitely cut Long Fei into pieces!"
