Chapter 72 Chapter 71 Occupying Duishan, Huang Zhongyi Waiting for Work, Taking Hanshui, Zhao Yun Outnumbered and Outnumbered

But he said that Kongming paid Huang Zhong: you are going, and my teaching method is helping you.Everything is planned.I then called people to respond.Huang Zhong agreed, and Fazheng led the troops to go.Kongming told Xuande, "this old general doesn't dare to provoke him with words, but he can't succeed even if he goes."If he is leaving today, he must send troops to meet him.Nai called Zhao Yun: "Send a group of people and horses, send out surprise soldiers from the small road to meet Huang Zhong: If Zhong wins, there is no need to fight; if loyalty is lost, go to rescue him."Liu Feng and Meng Da were also sent to lead 3,000 soldiers to dangerous places in the mountains, and set up more banners to strengthen the momentum of our soldiers and make the enemy suspicious.The three of them led the troops separately.He also sent people to do it down, and gave advice to Ma Chao to make him do it.He also sent Yan Yan to guard the pass in Langzhong, Brazil, and take Hanzhong together for Zhang Fei and Wei Yanlai.

But Zhang He and Xia Houshang came to see Xia Houyuan and said: Tiandang Mountain has been lost, and Xia Houde and Han Hao have been lost.Now that Liu Bei is personally leading the troops to take Hanzhong, he can quickly attack the king of Wei and send out elite soldiers and strong generals early to support him.Xia Houyuan sent someone to report to Cao Hong.Hong Xing went to Xuchang before night and reported to Cao Cao.Frightened, Cao gathered together civil and military forces to discuss sending troops to rescue Hanzhong.The chief historian Liu Yejin said: If Hanzhong is lost, the Central Plains will shake.Your Majesty quits his labors and has to fight in person.Cao regretted and said: I hate that I didn't use your words at that time, so that's the case!Hurry to pass orders and raise 400,000 troops to conscript.It was the autumn and July of the twenty-third year of Jian'an.Cao Cao's troops marched in three ways: Xiahou Dun, the vanguard in the front, led the central army by himself, and Cao Xiu was delayed, and the three armies set off one after another.Riding a white horse with a golden saddle and a jade belt and brocade clothes.The samurai holds a big red pin and gold umbrella cover.Gold melons and silver battleaxes on the left and right, stirrup sticks and spears, and the sun, moon, dragon and phoenix banners.There are 25,000 officers and soldiers guarding dragons and tigers, divided into five teams: 5,000 in each team, according to the five colors of 靑, yellow, red, white, and black, with flags, flags, armor and horses, and according to their true colors: brilliant and extremely majestic.

When the soldiers came out of Tongguan, Cao Cao saw a cluster of trees on his horse, which was extremely lush, and asked his servant, "Where is this?"The answer: This name is Lantian.Among the trees is Cai Yongzhuang.Today Yong's daughter Cai Yan lives here with her husband Dong Ji.It turned out that Cao Su and Cai Yong were good friends.At first, his daughter Cai Yan was the wife of Wei Daojie; later she was taken captive in the north, where she gave birth to two sons, wrote "Hujia Eighteen Pai", and flowed into the Central Plains.Cao deeply pitied him, so that people took a thousand pieces of gold and went to the north to redeem him.King Zuo Xian was afraid of the situation, so he sent Cai Yan back to Han.Cao Nai took Yan Pei and Dong Ji as his wives.When I arrived at the village that day, thinking of Cai Yong's incident, I ordered the army horses to go first, and led more than a hundred cavalry to dismount at the gate of the village.At that time, Dong Ji was away as an official, and only Cai Yan was at home. When Yan heard that Cao had arrived, he hurried out to greet him.When Cao arrived at the hall, Yan finished living and stood by the side.Occasionally, I saw a scroll of inscriptions and pictures hanging on the wall, so I got up to look at it.Asked Cai Yan, Yan replied: This is the stele of Cao E: In the time of Emperor He, there was a shaman in Shangyu, named Cao Min, who was able to enjoy the joy of Sapo and God; on May 5th, he fell into the river and died while dancing in a boat while drunk. .His daughter was fourteen years old. She cried around the river for seven days and nights, and jumped into the waves. In the last five days, her father's body floated on the surface of the river. The people in the village were buried by the river.Shangyu Lingdu still heard about the court, and she was a filial daughter.Du Shang ordered Handan Chun to write a composition and engrave a stele to record it.At that time, Chunnian in Handan was thirteen years old, and the text was written without adding any points, and it was written on the side of the stone tomb, which was amazing at the time.The concubine's father, Cai Yong, heard about it and went to look at it. It was already evening, so he touched the inscription with his hands in the dark and read it, and asked for a pen to read the big script on his back.Later generations engraved stones and engraved this character.Manipulate the horoscope cloud: a young woman in yellow silk, her grandson is a jellyfish.Cao asked Yan, "Do you understand this?"Yan said: "Although the ancestors left a pen, I really don't understand its meaning."Cao Cao looked back at the counselors and said: Do you understand?Everyone can't answer.One of them came out and said: "Someone has understood his meaning."Cao sees it as the master book Yang Xiuye.Cao cao said: please don't say anything, let me think about it.So he resigned Cai Yan and led the crowd out of the village.He got on his horse and walked three miles, suddenly realized, laughed and called Xiu and said: "You try to say it."Xiu said: This is a hidden language.Yellow silk is the silk of color: the color is paired with silk, which is the character of absolute.Young women are also young girls: females are less characters, which are wonderful characters.The grandson is the son of a woman: the word "Nv Pong Zi" is a good word.The 虀炒 is a tool for receiving the five pungents: the characters for shoubangxin and 辤.All in all, it is a wonderful word.Cao was shocked and said, "It's just what I want!"Everyone admired Yang Xiu's sensitivity.

Not a day later, the army arrived in Nanzheng.Cao Hong went on to prepare for Zhang He's affairs.Cao said: "It's not He's crime: victory or defeat is a matter of routine for military strategists."Hong said: "Now Liu Bei sent Huang Zhong to attack Dingjun Mountain. Xia Houyuan knew that the king's army had arrived, so he stuck to it and never went out to fight."Cao said, "If you don't fight, you're showing cowardice."Then he sent people to Dingjun Mountain to teach Xia Houyuan to march.Liu Wei remonstrated, saying: "Yuan's nature is too strong, and he is afraid of being tricked."The operation is to write with it.The mission is to go to Yuanying, and Yuanyuan connects.When the envoy publishes a book, Yuan dismantles it.Briefly said:

Anyone who is a general should use strength and softness to complement each other, and should not rely on his courage.If you are brave, you are the enemy of your husband.I am currently stationed in Nanzheng with a large army. If I want to see your wonderful talents, I don't want to insult you. Xia Houyuan was overjoyed at the end of his visit, and after sending the mission back, he discussed with Zhang Ying and said: "Now the king of Wei has led his troops to station in Nanzheng to fight against Liu Bei."If you and I guard this place for a long time, how can we build meritorious deeds?In the future, when I go to battle, I must capture Huang Zhong alive.Zhang He said: "Huang Zhong has both courage and courage, and the situation has the law and righteousness to help each other. Don't underestimate the enemy."The mountain road here is steep, so we should stick to it.Yuan said: "If others have made contributions, how can you and I see the king of Wei?"You only guard the mountain, and I go to fight.Then he ordered: "Who dares to send out the sentry to lure the enemy?"Xia Houshang said: "I would like to go."Yuan said: "If you go out to fight Huang Zhong, you should only lose, not win."I have a clever plan, so so.Shang was ordered to lead three thousand troops away from Dingjunshan Dazhai.

But Huang Zhong and Fazheng led troops to station at Dingjun Mountain Pass, and Xia Houyuan couldn't hold out after repeated challenges;On that day, it was reported that Cao soldiers on the mountain had come down to fight.Huang Zhong was just about to lead the army out to meet him. The tooth general Chen Shi said: "The general is not moving, and I am willing to take it."Zhong was overjoyed, so he ordered Chen Shi to lead a thousand troops out of the mountain pass to form an array.When Xiahou Shangbing arrived, he confronted him.If you don't count, you will still feign defeat and leave.He hurried forward, and when he was halfway, he was knocked down by the wood and rocks on the two mountains, so he couldn't move forward.Just as he was about to return, Xia Houyuan led his troops from behind to protrude. Chen Shi couldn't resist and was captured alive by Xia Houyuan and returned to the village.Many soldiers descended.A defeated army escaped with their lives and reported back to Huang Zhong, saying that Chen Shi had been captured.Zhong Pan discussed with Fa Zheng, and Zheng said: Yuan is light-headed and restless, relying on courage and seldom planning.It can be used to motivate and persuade the soldiers to move forward from the stronghold, step by step, and lure Yuan to fight and capture them: this is the method of turning against the enemy.Loyally use his strategy, and reward the three armies with what is due, full of cheers, and willing to fight to the death.Huang Zhong pulled out the stronghold and entered.Camp at every step; live in each camp for a few days, and then enter again.Yuan heard and knew that he wanted to fight.Zhang He said: "This is a tactic against the enemy. Don't go to war. If you fight, you will lose."Yuan refused, so Xia Houshang led thousands of soldiers to fight until Huang Zhongzhai.Zhong mounts his horse and raises his sword to meet him. He crosses horses with Xia Houshang, and together they capture Xiahou Shang alive and return to the village.The rest were defeated and returned to Xia Houyuan.Yuan urgently sent people to Huangzhongzhai, and promised to exchange Chen Shi for Xia Houshang.Loyalty agreed to exchange before the battle in the future.The next day, both armies went to the wide valley and formed a formation.Huang Zhong and Xia Houyuan immediately stood under the banner of the formation.Huang Zhong took Xiahoushang, and Xiahouyuan took Chen Shi, each without robes and armor, only wearing thin clothes to cover the body.With the sound of a drum, Chen Shi and Xia Houshang rushed back to their respective positions.When Xiahou Shangbi arrived at the gate of the formation, he was shot in the back of the heart by Huang Zhong's arrow.He returned with an arrow.Yuan was furious, and suddenly took Huang Zhong on his horse.Loyalty is about to fight in Yuanyuan.The two generals handed over their horses, and when the battle reached more than 20 bouts, Cao Ying suddenly called for gold to withdraw his troops.Yuan hurried back with his horse, and Zhong took advantage of the situation to kill him for a while.Yuan returned to the formation and asked the officer in charge, "why call for gold?"The answer was: A certain man saw several flags and banners of Shu soldiers in the valley, and he was afraid it was an ambush, so he hurriedly called the general back.Yuan believed what he said, so he couldn't stick to it.

Huang Zhong forced him to the foot of Dingjun Mountain to discuss with Fazheng.He was saying with his fingers: "Dingjun Shanxi, there is a majestic high mountain, and there are dangerous roads all around."From the top of this mountain, you can look down at the reality of Dingjun Mountain.If the general obtains this mountain, Dingjun Mountain is only in the palm of his hand.Zhong Yang saw that the top of the mountain was slightly flat, and there were few people on the mountain.It was the second watch of the night, and Zhong led the soldiers to beat gold and beat drums, and went straight to the top of the mountain.This mountain is guarded by Du Xi, a general of Xia Houyuan's department, and there are only a few hundred people.At that time, seeing Huang Zhong's brigade approaching, he had to abandon the mountain and leave.Zhong won the top of the mountain, which is opposite to Dingjun mountain.Fazheng said: "The general can stay in the middle of the mountain, and someone lives on the top of the mountain."When Xia Houyuan's soldiers arrived, I raised the white flag as a banner, but the general held back his troops;Zhong Daxi, follow its plan.

But he said that Du Xi led the army back and saw Xia Houyuan, saying that Huang Zhong had taken the opposite mountain.Yuan said angrily: "Huang Zhong has occupied the opposite mountain, and I am not allowed to fight."Zhang He remonstrated and said, "This is the strategy of Fa Zheng."The general should not go to battle, but should stick to it.Yuan said: "Occupying my opposite mountain, seeing my reality, how can I not fight?"He was bitter and refused to listen.Yuan divides the army to surround the mountain, yelling and challenging.Fazheng raised the white flag on the mountain; Ren Cong Xiahouyuan insulted him in every possible way, but Huang Zhong just didn't fight.After noon, Fazheng saw that Cao's soldiers were tired and their vigor had fallen, so they got off their horses and sat down to rest, so they unfurled the red flag.The drums and horns sounded together, and the shouts were loud.Huang Zhong took the lead and galloped down the mountain, as if the sky was collapsing.Xia Houyuan was caught off guard, and was driven under Huang Zhong's command, and he yelled loudly like a roar of thunder.Before Yuan could meet him, Huang Zhongbao's saber had already fallen, cutting his head and shoulders into two pieces.Later generations have poems praising Huang Zhong saying:

The blue head faces the enemy, and the bright head shows off its supernatural power.The strength takes advantage of the eagle's bow to send out, and the wind blows against the snow blade.The voice of a hero is like a tiger roaring, and a horse is like a dragon flying.The meritorious deeds of Xianyu are heavy, and the expansion of the emperor's base is opened up. Huang Zhong beheaded Xia Houyuan, and Cao's soldiers were routed, each fleeing for his life.Huang Zhong took advantage of the situation to seize Junshan, and Zhang Yun led the troops to meet him.Zhong and Chen Shi attacked each other, and Zhang Yun was defeated for a while.Suddenly a group of men and horses flashed by the side of the mountain, and they were on the way. The leading general shouted: "Changshan Zhao Zilong is here!"Zhang He was shocked, and led the defeated army to seize the way to look at Dingjun Mountain and leave.I saw a soldier in front of me coming to meet him, and it was Du Xiye.Xi said: "Dingjun Mountain has been taken by Liu Feng and Meng Da today."He was shocked, so he and Du Xi led the defeated soldiers to camp in Hanshui; on the one hand, they sent people to report to Cao Cao.When Cao Cao heard that Yuan was dead, he burst into tears. Fang Wu Guan Ren said: "Three-eight vertical and horizontal, it is the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an; the yellow pig meets the tiger, and it is the first month of Jihai; the south of Dingjun is Dingjun Mountain." Zhinan also; hurt and break a share, Naiyuan and Cao have a brotherly relationship.When he was looking for someone to manage, he didn't know where he went.Cao hated Huang Zhong deeply, so he personally led the army, came to Dingjunshan and Xiahouyuan to report, and made Xu Huang the vanguard.When they reached Hanshui, Zhang He and Du Xi followed Cao Cao.The second general said: "Dingjun Mountain has been lost now. We can move the food and grass from Micang Mountain to Beishanzhai to accumulate it, and then enter the army."Cao Cao agreed.

But it is said that Huang Zhong beheaded Xia Houyuan, and came to Jiameng Pass to see Xuande to offer his meritorious service.Xuande was overjoyed, added loyalty to the general of Zhengxi, and hosted a banquet to celebrate.Suddenly Ya general Zhang wrote to report: Cao Cao led an army of 200,000, and came to report to Xia Houyuan.Now Zhang He is transporting grain and grass at Micang Mountain and moving it to the foot of Hanshui North Mountain.Kong Ming said: "Cao Cao has brought large soldiers here, fearing that there will be insufficient food and grass, so he refrained from entering; if one person goes deep into the territory, burns his food and grass, and robs his luggage, Cao's vigor will be frustrated."Huang Zhong said: "I am willing to take up this post."Kongming said: "Fighting is not comparable to Xia Houyuan, and the enemy should not be underestimated."Xuande said: "Although Xia Houyuan is the commander-in-chief, he is a brave man. How can he be as good as Zhang He?"If Zhang He is beheaded, it will be ten times better than Xiahouyuan beheading.Zhong Fenran said: "I would like to kill it."Kong Ming said: "You can lead a soldier with Zhao Zilong; everything will be planned and done, and we will see who makes meritorious deeds."Loyalty is enough.Kongming ordered Zhang Zhu to go with him as his lieutenant general.Yun said Zhong said: "Today Cao Cao has attracted 200,000 people and divided them into ten battalions. It is no small matter for the general to seize food in front of the lord."What strategy should the general use?Zhong said: Let me go first, how about it?Yun said: Wait for me to go first.Zhong said: I am the chief general and you are the deputy general. How can we fight for the first place?Yun said, "You and I both work together for the master, so why bother?"The two of us cast lots, and the one that is cast will go first.Loyalty to agree.At that time, Huang Zhong insisted on going first.Yun said: "General Xi will go first, and I will help you."Time available by appointment.If the general returns in due time, a certain one will not move;Zhong said: "The public statement is true."So the two agreed to a period at noon.When Yun returned to the village, Zhang Yi said, "Huang Hansheng agreed to go grab grain and grass tomorrow. If he doesn't come back by noon, I will go to help."In front of our camp is the Han River, and the terrain is dangerous; if I go, you can guard the fence and don't move lightly.Zhang Yi agreed.

But when Huang Zhong returned to the stronghold, he said that Zhang Zhu, the deputy general, said: "I killed Xia Houyuan, and Zhang Yun was frightened; I will be ordered to rob grain and grass tomorrow, leaving only five hundred troops to guard the camp."You can help me.At the third watch tonight, everyone was full; at the fourth watch, they left the camp and went to the foot of Beishan Mountain, first captured Zhang He, and then robbed the food and grass.Zhang is in accordance with the order.That night, Huang Zhong led his men and horses in front, Zhang Zhu in the back, and stole across the Han River to the foot of Beishan.The sun rises in the east, and the grain is piled up like a mountain.Some young sergeants were guarding, and when they saw the Shu soldiers coming, they abandoned them and left.Huang Zhong taught the horsemen to get off their horses and pile firewood on top of the rice grain.Just as he was about to set fire, Zhang He's soldiers arrived and fought with Zhong.When Cao Cao heard about it, he urgently ordered Xu Huang to respond.Huang led the troops forward and trapped Huang Zhong in Gaixin.Zhang Zhu led three hundred troops away, and was about to return to the stronghold, when a soldier rushed out and blocked his way. The leading general was Wenpin; But he said that Zhao Yun was in the camp. He waited until noon, but he didn't see Zhong Hui, so he hurriedly put on his horse and led three thousand troops forward to meet him. Before leaving, he said to Zhang Yi, "You can stick to the camp."There are more bows and crossbows in the two wall compartments, as a preparation.Yi repeatedly agreed.Yun holds up his gun and suddenly kills his horse straight forward.The head-on general blocked the way: Murong Lie, the general of Naiwenpin Department, slapped his horse and wielded a knife to meet Zhao Yun; he was stabbed to death by Yun with a gun.Cao Bing was defeated and fled.Yunzhi entered the siege and was stopped by another army; the leader was Wei general Jiao Bing.Yun He asked, "Where are the Shu soldiers?"Bing said: "It has been killed!"Yun was furious, and suddenly shot Jiao Bing to death.Kill and disperse the rest of the soldiers until they reach the foot of Beishan Mountain. They saw Zhang He and Xu Huang besieging Huang Zhong, and the soldiers were trapped for a long time.Yun shouted, raised his gun and rushed his horse, charging into the siege; rushing left and right, as if entering no one's land.The whole body of the gun is like dancing pear blossoms; the whole body is covered with snow, like falling auspicious snow.Zhang He and Xu Huang were terrified and did not dare to meet the enemy.Yun rescued Huang Zhong, fought and left; no one dared to stop him wherever he went.Seeing it from a high place, Cao asked all the generals in surprise, "Who is this general?"A knowledgeable person told him, "This is Zhao Zilong from Changshan."Cao said: The old Dangyang Changban hero is still alive!The urgent order said: "Wherever you go, don't underestimate the enemy."Zhao Yun rescued Huang Zhong and broke through the siege. Some soldiers pointed out: "The ones encircling the southeast must be the deputy general Zhang."Yun didn't return to his village, so he looked to the southeast to kill.Wherever he went, he saw the four-character banner of Zhao Yun in Changshan, who had known him as a brave man in Changban, Dangyang, and told each other that they all fled.Yun rescued Zhang Zhu again. Seeing Yun rushing eastward and westward, Cao Cao dared not meet the enemy. He rescued Huang Zhong and Zhang Zhu. He was furious and led his left and right soldiers to drive Zhao Yun away.Yun has returned to his village.Zhang Yi, the general of the Ministry, followed. Seeing the dust behind him, he knew that it was Cao soldiers chasing him. He called Yun and said: "The pursuers are getting closer, so the soldiers can close the gate of the village and go up to the enemy building for protection."Yun drank and said, "Don't close the gate of the village!"Don't you know that when I was in Dangyang Changban, I single-handedly underestimated Cao's 830,000 soldiers like nothing!Now there are troops and generals, so why not be afraid!Then they pulled out the crossbowmen to ambush in the moat outside the stronghold; all the flags and guns in the camp were knocked down, and the golden drum did not sound.Yunpima single-handedly stood outside the gate of the camp. But it is said that Zhang He and Xu Huang led the troops to chase to Shuzhai, and it was already dusk. Seeing that the flags and drums were quiet in the village, and Zhao Yun standing alone with a single gun outside the camp, the gate of the village was wide open, and the two generals did not dare to advance.Between doubts, Cao Cao arrived in person and hurriedly urged all the troops to move forward.All the troops listened to the order, shouted, and rushed to the camp. Seeing that Zhao Yun was completely motionless, Cao Bing turned over and went back.With one move of Zhao Yun's gun, all bows and crossbows were fired from the trench.It was dark at that time, and it was unknown how many soldiers there were in Shu.Cao first dialed back the horse and walked away.There was a loud shout from behind, the sound of drums and horns, and the Shu soldiers came.Cao's soldiers trampled on each other; they flocked to the Hanshui River, and the number of those who fell into the water and died is unknown.Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Zhang Zhu each led an army, and they were in a hurry to pursue and kill them.While Cao was running, suddenly Liu Feng and Meng Da led two soldiers to attack from Micang mountain road and set fire to the grain and grass.Cao abandoned the grain and grass in Beishan and hurried back to Nanzheng.Xu Huang and Zhang Yun couldn't hold their feet, so they also abandoned their stronghold and left.Zhao Yun took Caozhai, Huang Zhong took food, grass, Hanshui, obtained countless weapons, won a great victory, and sent someone to report to Xuande.Xuande then went to Hanshui with Kongming, and asked Zhao Yun's soldiers, "how does Zilong fight?"Sergeant General Zilong recounted in detail how Zilong rescued Huang Zhong and rejected the Han River.Xuande was overjoyed. After seeing the steep road in front of the mountain and behind the mountain, he happily said to Kong Ming, "Zilong is full of courage!"Later generations have a poem praising it: The prestige of the battle at Changban in the past has not diminished.Stand out as a hero, and be brave when surrounded.The ghost cry and the god's cry, the sky is shocked and the earth is miserable: Changshan Zhao Zilong is full of courage! So Xuande named Long as General Huwei, worked hard for soldiers, and had a feast until late. Suddenly it was reported that Cao Cao's repatriation army had entered from the Xiegu path to fetch Hanshui.Xuande laughed and said, "There's nothing you can do about it."I expected to get the Han River.He led his troops to the west of the Han River to meet them.Cao Cao ordered Xu Huang to be the vanguard to come to the decisive battle.A person in front of the tent came out and said: a certain person knows geography well and is willing to help General Xu go to break Shu.Cao sees it as a person from Dangqu, Brazil: surnamed Wang, first name Ping, styled Zijun; see General Chong Yamen.Cao was overjoyed, so he appointed Wang Ping as the deputy vanguard to help Xu Huang.Cao stationed troops in the north of Dingjun Mountain.Xu Huang and Wang Ping led the army to the Han River, and Huang ordered the former army to cross the water and form an array.Ping said: If the army is crossing the water, if it wants to retreat in a hurry, what should I do?Huang said: "In the past, Han Xin formed a battle with his back against the water. It is said that he will die and then live again."Ping said: Otherwise: the former Han Xin knew that the enemy had no plan and used this plan.Can the general know what Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong mean?Huang said: "You can lead the infantry to resist the enemy, and watch me lead the horse army to break it."So he ordered a pontoon bridge to be built, and he crossed the river to fight the Shu soldiers.Exactly: Han Xin of Wei people's delusion, the Shu prime minister knew that it was the ovary.It is unknown how the outcome will be, let's see the breakdown below.
