Yuan Yao personally led more than 2,000 people from his headquarters to carry about half a month of dry food along the way, and went west to Shunyang, and rushed to Wuguan in the northwest.

According to original historical records, the scale of the rebellion in Guanzhong was relatively large, but due to the powerlessness of the court, even with the help of such an unparalleled warrior as Lu Bu, he was still defeated in a short time with the joint efforts of more than 100,000 Xiliang troops.

Wang Yun committed suicide by jumping into the city and Lu Bu was defeated and all the officials suffered, and the people of Xiliang were able to control the government again to end.

Thinking of this, Yuan Yao decided to quickly rush to Chang'an to persuade the generals of Xiliang, led by Li Guo, to send troops eastward to harass Dongjun, Liyang and other places on both sides of the Yellow River, indirectly alleviating the military pressure faced by his northern expedition.

...

After a long journey for several days, on the evening of this day, I finally arrived at Wuguan, an important border town in the south of Guanzhong.

Yuan Yao was like a fiery red robe, and stood at the city of Wuguan with a sword hanging on his waist. His eyes stood quietly at this ancient pass, looking at the city wall about two or three meters high, with some weeds vaguely growing on it, which looked so green.

However, even though there are traces of ancient times left, you can still feel the strength of the city gate at a glance.

Standing below, as the night gradually darkened, the cold wind that was nearly October blew towards him, subconsciously causing Yuan Yao to shrink his neck, lick his chapped lips, and then ordered: "It's too late today. The whole army entered the pass and rested overnight, and set off for the west next day."

"Here."

The order was passed down, and the commander began to pass the order. After receiving the order, each department entered the pass in an orderly manner.

Since the Eastern Han Dynasty established the capital in Luoyang, the national political center, economic center and military all moved eastward, and the strategic location of Wuguan was naturally no longer so important, so it gradually became abolished.

Until now, no one has paid attention to and repaired this place.

The empty defense naturally allowed Yuan Yao to take advantage of it and easily entered this eternal pass.

It's three o'clock in the middle of the night.

The Yuan army and the soldiers had already rested and fell asleep. Only Yuan Yao could not sleep for a long time. He couldn't help but stand above the juncture and looked at Chang'an City in the west, feeling a little restless.

He recalled that he had been traveling through the chaotic times of the late Han Dynasty for almost a year, and he spent almost all day in the military training to train soldiers and soldiers. However, he did not know what the prospects were for this trip to the west, and whether he could persuade Li Guo and other generals of Xiliang to send troops out of the pass to attack Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's hinterland.

Talking about the Western Liang army is also a key point to reverse the situation.

Yuan Yao knew very well that although he had secretly carried out reforms in the past six months, which led to a major change in the military and slightly improved the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, he also knew very well that the military literacy of his generals was too far from that of the Cao clans...

Like Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and others, they will not be able to reuse them, and like Zhang Xun, generals from Jianghuai have not yet surrendered. People like Liu Xiang are typical fathers, but they have no real talent and knowledge to command troops, and they are incompetent in occupying high places.

It is difficult to win a strong attack. If the Western Liang army participates in the war, it will make Yuan and Cao unable to connect with each other. Cao Cao is in a threatened situation at any time. Even if his side cannot occupy all the Yan and Henan provinces in the end.

But you can also retreat calmly, so as not to be chased by the original history for hundreds of miles, like a dog in the panic, causing all the elite troops to be lost.

A moment later, just as Yuan Yao was immersed in his mind, Huang Zhong climbed from the dark pass, and looked at Yuan Yao and immediately clasped his fists and said, "Young Master."

"Well, Brother Hansheng is so late and you won't have a rest?"

Hearing this, Huang Zhong smiled and said, "He is old and has less sleep. He can't sleep and can't go out for a walk..."

Seeing that he still respectfully called himself "Young Master", Yuan Yao was still heartbroken.

The title of Prince shows that Huang Zhong is grateful to him, but it shows that Huang Zhong is not yet loyal to him.

After pondering for a while, Yuan Yao smiled and said, "Haha. I wonder what Brother Han Sheng has in the future?"

After making up his mind to subdue Huang Zhong, the tiger general, Yuan Yao naturally would not give up easily, so he continued to chat to increase his favor.

"Intend?"

After hearing this, he muttered to himself for a while, and Huang Zhong seemed to smile bitterly: "In the past, when he was in his prime, Zhong was proud of his own strength, so he also thought about joining the army to fight against the invading Hu bandits and serving the country, but..."

"The emperor is weak. The ministers, relatives and eunuchs in the court have persecuted loyal and kind people in order to fight for power and profit, and killed loyal and patriotic righteous men. Like the Taiwei Duan Yi, who made great achievements in fighting against the Qiang and Hu, did not die on the battlefield and wrapped his body, but died cowardly in the court struggle. Isn't it a heartbreaking heart for such a court?"

For a moment, Huang Zhong was also inspired. The more he spoke, the more excited he became, but instead he unconsciously revealed his thoughts.

It seemed as if he realized something, and he immediately kept silent.

Seeing this, Yuan Yao smiled and said, "Brother Han Sheng doesn't have to be so concerned. As the saying goes, Qin lost his deer, and the world chased him. Now the Han court is corrupt and incompetent, and rotten wood is an official in the temple, and animals are everywhere eat and feed."

"Since this is the case, what's wrong with the Han Dynasty losing its deer, and the whole world will attack it?"

Hearing Yuan Yao's words, Huang Zhong's heart gradually calmed down, but he still had fantasies about the Han Dynasty, so he said: "You can't say that, the Han Dynasty will still..."

"Someone?"

Before he finished speaking, Huang Zhong suddenly moved his eyes and his face changed drastically.

"Hmm? What does Brother Hansheng mean?"

Hearing this, Huang Zhong closed his eyes and felt it carefully, and then he said exactly: "Young Master, there is an army close outside the pass and there are also the sound of war horses running wildly."

"Army, knight? Could it be..."

After saying that, Yuan Yao suddenly became alert, so he hurriedly called the patrol soldiers on the side to summon various troops to gather at the city wall. He didn't dare to be careless. The army coming from the west was definitely an enemy, not a friend!

"Can it be that the Western Liang army captured Chang'an and sent troops to seize the surrounding important towns?"

Huang Zhong also slowly guessed.

"At present, the enemy situation is unclear, so it is not advisable to act rashly. It is better to watch it first. Our army has just entered Wuguan, and the enemy may not know the reality of the situation here."

Yuan Yao calmly analyzed.

...

As for the moment, there was indeed a knight with more than 20 miles outside the western pass of Wuguan at this moment, more than 100 knights were racing towards the east.

During this period, I saw the general who was the leader, with a majestic body of nearly nine feet. He was about thirty years old, but his face was still broad and distinct and extremely handsome.

This man even had a golden crown on his hair, a battle robe with a hundred flowers, a Tang Dynasty armor, a lion and a treasure belt, and a horse and a halberd.

Seeing that it was getting closer and closer to Wu Pass in front, he waved the Tianhua Ji in his palm. The already exhausted knight around Aoshi smiled and encouraged him loudly: "Brothers, just hold on for a while, and just wait until they reach Zuwu Pass, they can have a good meal and a big sleep."

"Everyone is cheering up, Wu Pass is not far away!"

The general was still encouraging him. Suddenly, a general approached his face, showed a little worried expression, and bowed and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Wen, I think that Yuan Shu has always been a self-respecting noble person. Now our army is a defeated general and is in a downfall. When we go to surrender, will he really take him in?"
