Just as Zhang Heng entered the pass and Liu Feng got the news quickly, when Liu Feng's army moved, Tongguan received the news just as quickly.
Tongguan, General Mansion, in the hall. Cao Hong was listening to the report from Chief Secretary Wu Guang. When he heard that Liu Feng's army no longer retreated to Luoyang, but instead sent troops to the west, pretending to attack Tongguan, he couldn't help but snap.
He stood up and shouted: "What a thief. He is hiding in the city. I can't do anything about it. Now that he has left Luoyang City, I can see how arrogant he is."
Cao Hong was also very excited. If Liu Feng huddled in Luoyang, there would be 24,000 new soldiers and 30,000 to 40,000 field soldiers, which he would not be able to gnaw down.
Even if you forcefully chew it off, your teeth will break. Now, Liu Feng is out of the city, knocking on the gate? It’s surprising and inexplicable. [
Isn't this just like a turtle out of its shell? If you chew it, your teeth will definitely not break.
Thinking about this, the excitement in Cao Hong's heart was unbearable, and he immediately ordered: "Close the door and prohibit all caravans from entering and exiting. And immediately summon the generals of the army to discuss the matter."
"No." Wu Guang agreed and went down immediately.
"At this moment, even without the help of the princes in Guanzhong, I can defeat Liu Feng, drive Liu Feng out of Sili, and occupy Sili as the foundation. I can take Liu Feng's development during this period as my own.
Yes." After Wu Guang left, Cao Hong became more and more excited as he thought about it, and couldn't help but mutter to himself.
At the same time, following Cao Hong's order, the pass was closed. The caravans waiting to enter the city were turned away. The caravans already walking in the pass were immediately driven away and accelerated out of the pass. There were large numbers of caravans.
The soldiers walked up to the pass and began to wait sternly.
It could have been used as a pass for caravans traveling together, and it was regarded as a civilian pass. It was immediately transformed into a military fortress. As Zhang Heng said, Cao's army had 20,000 elite soldiers, guarded by General Cao Hong, and coupled with the majesty of Tongguan, it was a hundred thousand troops.
Pass, and it is difficult to attack the city.
Not only that, Cao Hong's notice was also issued. There was only Cao Hong's general's palace in Guanzhong, which was a symbol of status, and the rest were military tents. Some of them were large and some were small, depending on their status.
In the north of the pass, close to the mountain, there is a large tent. This tent belongs to one of Cao Hong's subordinates, Army Commander Xu Yang.
At this moment, in the big tent, Xu Yang and Zhang Heng were drinking and chatting happily.
"Alas, apart from the food and wine, this pass is okay, but it's really boring." Xu Yang sighed and said from the main position.
Xu Yang was in his thirties, not very old, but very senior. He had followed Cao Hong in his expeditions to the west when he was a teenager, and he was Cao Hong's most trusted general.
"As long as Wei Gong rules the world, we can take off our armor and return to our fields and enjoy the glory and wealth." Zhang Heng felt moved after hearing this and said.
This sentence comes from the sincerity, so it feels very emotional. However, in Zhang Heng's heart, he hopes that Liu Feng can dominate the world.
When Xu Yang heard this, he felt as if he had met a confidant and sighed: "That's right. If Duke Wei rules the world, he can enjoy peace."
Immediately afterwards, the two drank heavily again.
Originally, the troops were rewarded and could go back as soon as they arrived. They could stay for one day at most, but now Zhang Heng has stayed in Guanzhong for two days, and he stayed because he was slightly unwell. Because the news from Tongguan and Chang'an has been
It was intercepted by his own soldiers, so Zhang Heng was not worried.
