Chapter 360 A man is born into the world and becomes a prince when he is strong!
It's Monday today, can I ask for a recommendation vote?
————————————————————————
In many people's minds, Xiaoguan seems to be an independent pass.
But in fact, the strategic positions of Xiaoguan and the Great Wall of Qin are closely related. The Great Wall of Qin and the town fortresses built along the Great Wall form a complete defense system. Guoer Mountain, Yuhuang Mountain, the three beacon towers on the east side of the city, and Chengzigang
, Shenjiatai, and the city barrier at the entrance of Chengdonggou constitute a solid artificial barrier. The three beacons can echo each other from a distance at the commanding heights of Xiaoguan. At the same time, you can have a bird's-eye view of all the intersections of Huanshui, Chengxichuan, and Chengdonggou.
Territory. You can have a panoramic view of the five square kilometers of mountains, rivers, valleys, roads and villages inside and outside the pass...
High and low, vertical and horizontal!
A three-dimensional defense system was formed.
The meticulous design and ingenious layout of Xiaoguan amazed future generations.
Later generations published a book "The Layout of the World", which highly praised Xiao Guan's design.
Cao Peng had never been to Xiaoguan before, but now when he climbed up Yuhuang Mountain and had a bird's eye view of the scenery of Xiaoguan, he couldn't help but be filled with emotion.
Years of war have made Xiaoguan's defenses look dilapidated.
Standing on a beacon tower, Cao Peng had a bird's-eye view of the inside and outside of Xiaoguan. He saw criss-crossing rivers and undulating mountains inside the pass;
A poem suddenly appeared in my mind.
“The ancients will never be seen before, and the newcomers will never be seen after.
Thinking about the long journey of heaven and earth, I shed tears with sadness..."
In the past, Emperor Xiaowen of the Qin Dynasty worked hard to govern and was able to win over Shang Yang and carry out reforms, which led to the rise of the Qin Dynasty.
After that, there were Zhang Yi, Sima Cuo, and Bai Qi and Fan Ju. After two hundred years, the first emperor finally wielded his sword to cut off the floating clouds, and the King of Qin made unparalleled achievements in sweeping Liuhe. However, the second generation of Qin died, and only these eight hundred were left.
In Qinchuan...
"The ancients are never seen before, and the newcomers are never seen after... That's a good saying!"
Just when Cao Peng was filled with emotion, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind him.
He looked back and saw Liu Guang, leading several warriors, stepping up to the Jade Emperor Mountain Beacon Tower.
The two had met before, and Cao Peng even told Tian Yu secretly. But the strange thing is that both Tian Yu and Liu Guang chose to remain silent. In Tian Yu's words, Liu Guang was not surprised at all.
Save yourself the trouble.
Cao Peng didn't understand it at the time, but when he went back to discuss it with Pang Tong, Pang Tong guessed the secret.
Everyone knows that the purpose of the Han Emperor's mission was not simple.
Cao Cao secretly ordered Cao Peng to accompany him, just like playing a secret chess game to check the movements of the Han Emperor's envoy. Cao Peng was in the dark and Tian Yu was in the open. Their purpose was to find out what tricks the Han Emperor had. If Cao Peng
If Liu Guang was not discovered, Tian Yu would have a headache. But after Cao Peng discovered Liu Guang's existence, Tian Yu felt relieved...
I'm not afraid of you playing tricks. What I'm afraid of is not knowing who is playing tricks.
Now that Liu Guang has come into sight, it means that Tian Yu can have a clear target and not be like a headless fly.
"Since the Marquis of Linyi is here, how can there be no follow-up?
When he appears in the mission, he must be prepared to be discovered. I estimate that he must have His Majesty's edict in his hand... Once he is discovered and has to come forward, he will definitely use the edict to remove Zhou Liang from his post.
, walked to the front of the stage."
If Liu Guang heard these words from Pang Tong, he would definitely change his mind.
Maybe he would kill Pang Tong first, because Pang Tong's guess was basically in line with the facts.
"Then wouldn't he be exposed?"
"What does it matter? Doesn't Duke Cao know the purpose of His Majesty's mission?"
Duke Cao must know this very well, so he asked you to follow him secretly. There is not much difference between the Marquis of Linyi in the dark and the light. The only difference is that in the dark, he can act more conveniently, but in the light, it is easier for him to do things.
Need to be cautious.
I am also sure that Tian Guorang also has a secret order in his hand.
When necessary, Tian Yu will push you out and compete with Liu Guangming's sword and spear... This is a conspiracy. Whether it is Cao Gong or His Majesty, they have laid out their plans openly. It just depends on whose method is better.
Who has a more thoughtful mind?"
When Pang Tong said this, he couldn't help showing a look of admiration.
Cao Peng was secretly surprised. He was not surprised that Cao Cao had such a method; but Han Emperor Liu Xie...the emperor who was extremely useless in history and whose posthumous nickname was "Xian" actually had such a scheme, which was beyond Cao Peng's mind.
anticipation.
Liu Guang walked forward with a smile on his face.
"I never thought that the famous Cao Sanpian would change its appearance."
Cao Peng also came back to his senses, with a bright smile on his face, "Peng is not as good as Bai Shen, how can he be compared to the Marquis of Linyi?"
I am a white person with no official position, so it is normal for me to change my appearance.
You are a member of the Han clan, the Marquis of Linyi... aren't you the same as me?
In the words, tit for tat began unknowingly. Liu Guang looked at Cao Peng, and after a while, he suddenly sighed...
He turned around, held the beacon crenel with his hand, and looked up at the scenery inside the pass.
"What a great country!"
Cao Peng, on the other hand, looked outside the pass and said as if to himself: "It's really a good country."
It sounded like both of them were praising the beautiful mountains and rivers. But in fact, there was another confrontation implicit in their words.
When Liu Guang said "good country", he was telling Cao Peng: This is the country of the Han Dynasty.
The implication is that no matter what happens to Cao Cao, he will always be a minister of the Han Dynasty. You, Cao Peng, should join the Han Dynasty.
And what Cao Peng said, "Sure enough, the country is so good" is ironic.
Such a great country has been governed by you to what it is now. I think back then, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty attacked the Xiongnu in the north, Ban Ding shocked the Western Regions. Chen Tangna's screams of "Whoever offends our powerful Han will be punished no matter how far away" are still there.
It echoes in my ears, but you have given your great country to the Huns to recuperate and recuperate. Are you worthy of such a great country?
The two of them turned back at the same time, with a stern look in their eyes.
After a long while, Liu Guang suddenly laughed and said: "I have heard for a long time that Cao Cao's three poems are unparalleled. With such a beautiful scenery, why not write a poem."
In the coming days, when we will leave Xiaoguan in the north, how about we use this as our theme?"
Cao Peng was startled and then laughed!
When the sun sets on the Changhe River, the old fortress in the north is reflected in the remaining red.
The vast wilderness exuded a majestic color. The faint sound of cucumbers could be heard faintly. It must be the singing of a shepherd. The wind blew from the north, and there was still a hint of chill. Cao Peng came from
He took out a horizontal flute from his waist and put it to his lips to play. The horizontal flute has a high-pitched sound with a hint of desolation and loneliness. It is a commonly used musical instrument in the military.
After the song ended, Cao Peng turned and left.
Liu Guang looked at his back in astonishment, and was about to speak when he heard Cao Peng chant: "The bicycle wants to ask where it is, and it belongs to the country passing Juyan. Zheng Peng leaves Hansai, and the returning geese enter Hutian. The desert is solitary and the smoke is straight, and the long river falls.
Riyuan. When Xiao Guan is waiting to ride, he will protect Yan Ran."
At the end of the poem, Cao Peng has stepped down from the beacon tower, turned the saddle and raised the stirrup.
Liu Guang stood blankly on the beacon tower and said for a long time: "What a great Cao Sanpian, what a great protector of Yan Ran..."
All the cares in my heart disappeared in an instant.
The glory of the Han Dynasty in the past is gone now.
I remember that at the beginning, the hussars came out of the town, built six canals, were struck by lightning and thunder, drank from the vast sea of horses, sealed the wolves in the mountains, connected the great rivers to the west, and made the counties of Qilian. But now, they have to bow to the Huns and fight against the barbarians...
If my ancestors knew this, they would hate my descendants for being dishonest.
The little carelessness I had earlier can no longer cause any trouble.
Didn't Liu Guang know that if the Han Emperor and the Southern Xiongnu successfully unite this time, it will be like seeking the skin of a tiger. The sacrifices will be staggering... But if we don't unite with the Xiongnu, what else can we do to revive the prestige of the Han Dynasty? There is nothing in hand.
With soldiers and generals around him, the Han Emperor is now like a puppet in Xudu. In the long run, the Han Dynasty will surely be destroyed...
Drink poison to quench your thirst!
That's right, what the Han emperor was doing now was to drink poison to quench his thirst.
He knew that the harm would be great, but he had to go. How could Liu Guang be willing to unite with the Southern Huns? But if he didn't unite with the Southern Huns, who could help? Not to mention other members of the Han clan, not even Liu Biao or Liu Zhang.
As sons of men, they stick to one place, just like dogs guarding the house... These two people did not care about the Han Emperor's edicts. If they had the slightest feeling of clan, the Han Emperor would not be as helpless as he is now. Needless to say, Liu Biao,
Liu Zhang alone is simply... When the Han Emperor sent the governor of Ba County, he was killed by Liu Zhang. Now Xichuan has established himself as king.
Cao Youxue, Cao Youxue, why should I hope to collude with the barbarians?
Liu Guang's heart was heavy with a feeling of depression that made him almost burst...
Suddenly, I heard a singing voice coming from afar, and it was so heroic.
The song goes: "When a man is born in this world, he becomes a prince when he is strong. He has made great achievements in war, but how can he guard the old hills?"
I was recruited to go to Jimen, and I couldn't stay when the army moved. I bought a riding whip with a thousand gold, and a knife head with a hundred gold. I was sent off to the village, and my relatives supported me all the way around. I was in the upper ranks with gray hair, and I was drunk and ashamed.
The young man had a farewell gift and looked at Wu Gou with a smile. He entered the East Gate Camp in the morning and went up to the Heyang Bridge in the evening. The setting sun illuminated the banner, and the horses whistled in the wind. There were thousands of curtains on the sand, and each troop saw their moves.
The bright moon hangs in the middle of the sky, making the night lonely. There are several mournful whistles, and the strong men are miserable but not arrogant. If I ask who the general is, I am afraid it is Huo Yao. In ancient times, people guarded the borders, but today people value high honors.
Little did he know that the heroic leader was sent to Genchangyun. Liuhe was already one family, and the four barbarians were alone. So he sent the brave warriors to fight bravely. He drew his sword and attacked the wilderness, and collected the Huma group every day.
I swear to open up the Xuan Ming North and hold it in service to my king. The day of dedication continues, and the two countries are quiet and safe. The heroes of the northern frontier are beating drums and playing the sheng and yu. The cloud sails are turning to the Liaohai Sea, and the japonica rice is coming to Dongwu.
Yue Luo and Chu Lian, shine on the public platform. The general's position is greatly respected, and he is arrogant and arrogant. The people on the side do not dare to discuss it, otherwise it will lead to death. I am a son of a good family, and I have many disciples.
Pride will lead to worries and thoughts, and the wealth of the body is not enough. I have been riding a horse for twenty years, and I am afraid that I will betray the kindness of the Ming Lord. I sat down to see the Northerners riding, and drove the river and Luohun for a long time. I returned home at night, but my hometown was empty.
Notoriety escaped, poor and old without children..."
The song gradually fades away.
Liu Guang, however, had tears streaming down his face.
He no longer had the intention to stay on this beacon tower and left as if fleeing for safety.
After returning to the camp, he rushed into the small tent and sat blankly alone...
The curtain was raised, and an old man walked in from the outside.
"Liu Hou, why are you sad?"
"Leng Gong, I..."
The person who came in was none other than Leng Fei.
He was sitting quietly in the tent, but suddenly he heard someone say that the Marquis of Linyi was in a bad mood, so he hurried over. Seeing Liu Guang's face bursting with tears, Leng Fei was startled. In his impression, the Marquis of Linyi was a
An extremely strong person... Even when he was oppressed by Li Jue and Guo Si in Chang'an, he had never shed tears. But now, he was crying like a child.
"Liu Hou, what happened?"
"I..." Liu Guang wiped away the tears on his face and said softly: "Leng Gong, is it wrong for us to collude with barbarians?"
"Liu Hou, why do you ask this?"
Ever since Liu Guang was called the "Han Family Dog", he has always resolutely carried out the orders of the Han Emperor.
Everything the Han Emperor did was correct.
Even if the Han Emperor asked him to kill people, Liu Guang would not hesitate at all.
But now...
Leng Fei could feel the misery and desolation in Liu Guang's heart. He sat down and gently touched Liu Guang's shoulder, "Liu Hou, if you feel unhappy in your heart, please tell me about it. But to the outside world, you
Never say this."
"Why?"
"Your Majesty, don't you know that joining forces with the Xiongnu is no different than seeking the skin of a tiger?
However, the current situation is forcing us. If we do not join forces with the Xiongnu, Your Majesty's voice in the court will become weaker day by day. In the end... I don't want to join forces with the Huns. But in today's situation, joining forces with the Xiongnu
Horizontal is the best way out."
"I know, but I..."
"Liu Hou, I know you don't want to do this.
But since His Majesty has issued an edict, we must do this well. What will happen in the future is beyond our control... What we have to do and consider now is to help His Majesty regain control of the court and restore our Han family.
The glory of the country."
glory?
If they are all in conflict with the Xiongnu, what glory can the Han family have?
If we succeed this time, I am afraid it will not be much better than the siege of the great ancestor Bai Deng in the past, and it will definitely become a great shame for the Han family.
At that time, my name...
Liu Guang closed his eyes, showing a look of pain.
Leng Fei wanted to persuade Liu Guang again, but Liu Guang waved his hand gently, "Leng Gong, I am very tired, please leave me alone for a while."
"Then...Liu Hou, please take care of yourself."
Leng Fei knew that it was useless to say anything at this time.
He believed that with Liu Guang's intelligence, he could calm down quickly. But at this moment, he was just experiencing mood swings.
After walking out of the small tent, Leng Fei hesitated for a moment and then waved for a warrior to come over.
This sharp man went to Yuhuang Mountain with Leng Fei during the day. Leng Fei asked: "What happened to you in Yuhuang Mountain today? Tell me everything, without any omissions."
Rui Shi thought for a while and said: "My lord was walking around the city today, and he came up with the idea of visiting Yuhuang Mountain. However, we met some people in Yuhuang Mountain. My lord seemed to know those people, and we talked together.
After a while..."
Rui Shi told Leng Fei everything in detail, and Leng Fei frowned after listening to it.
When a man is born in the world, will he become a marquis when he is strong enough?
He has experienced the ups and downs of the world, how could he not understand why Liu Guang had such emotional fluctuations.
A pair of eyes narrowed to a slit, and endless murderous intent suddenly arose in his heart. Cao Peng, that damn Cao Peng again... He has ruined His Majesty's good deeds several times, and now he has shaken the Marquis of Linyi's belief, making the Marquis of Linyi's trust in
Your Majesty is dissatisfied. If this son is alive, he will be a disaster for our country. If we can't get rid of him as soon as possible, this mission will only be full of twists and turns.
No, this guy must be eliminated!
Leng Fei suddenly snorted coldly, with a look of solemnity on his face.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The night was dark and there were constant sounds of fighting in the camp.
Cao Peng, who was sleeping, suddenly jumped up and sat up, raised his hand and grabbed the Tiger Roaring Knife tightly...
