The twenty-fifth chapter: Three things about the Tushanguan Convention to save the white horse Cao Cao from the siege

However, Cheng Yu offered a plan and said, "There are enemies of ten thousand people, and they cannot be taken without wisdom. Now, we can send the surrendered soldiers under Liu Bei to Xia Pi. When they saw Guan Gong, they only said that they had fled back and hid in the city as an insider. However, they led Guan Gong to fight, pretended to be defeated and pretended to be lost, lured into other places, and used elite troops to intercept his return, and then said that it was possible." Cao listened to his plan and ordered dozens of soldiers in Xuzhou to surrender directly to Xia Pi to surrender Guan Gong. Guan Gong thought he was an old soldier and stayed without doubt.

The next day, Xiahou Dun was the vanguard and led 5,000 troops to fight. Guan Gong did not leave, and Dun was insulted by the city. Guan Gong was furious and led 3,000 troops out of the city to fight with Xiahou Dun. After more than ten rounds of battle, Dun redirected his horse to go. Guan Gong rushed to the scene, Dun was fighting and leaving. Guan Gong rushed twenty miles away, but he was afraid that Xia Pi would be in trouble, so he brought his troops back. He heard a cannon sound, Xu Huang on the left and Xu Chu on the right. The two troops intercepted the way, Guan Gong seized the road, and the ambushers on both sides lined up a hundred crossbows, and arrows were like locusts. Guan Gong could not pass, so he led his troops back again

, Xu Huang and Xu Chu caught the battle. Guan Gong tried hard to kill and retreated the two men, and led his army to return to Xia Pi, but Xiahou Dun intercepted the battle again. The battle lasted until late, and he had no way back, so he only got a Tushan Mountain, and led his troops to station at the top of the mountain. The power was still for a short break. Cao's army surrounded Tushan Mountain and looked at the fire in Xia Pi City from afar. However, the soldiers who pretended to surrender secretly opened the city gate. Cao Cao raised his army and rushed into the city, only to raise fire to confuse Guan Gong's heart. Guan Gong was frightened when he saw the fire in Xia Pi. He rushed down the mountain several times overnight, but were all shot back by arrows.

Until dawn, he wanted to rectify the conflicts down the mountain. Suddenly, a man ran up the mountain and looked at it as Zhang Liao. Guan Gong said to him, "Wenyuan wants to come to fight?" Liao said, "No. I think of the old friend's old feelings, so I came to meet him." So he abandoned his sword and got off the horse, and after talking to Guan Gong, sat on the top of the mountain. The Duke said, "Did Wenyuan say Guan Mou?" Liao said, "Otherwise, I saved my brother in the past, but today I would not save my brother today.

? "The Duke said, "However, Wen Yuan wants to help me?" Liao said, "It's not." Duke said, "If you don't help me, why do you come here?" Liao said, "Xuande does not know survival, Yide does not know life and death. Last night, Cao Gong had broken Xia Pi, and the soldiers and civilians were not harmed. He sent someone to protect Xuande's family and not to be shocked and worried. Treat each other like this, I came to report to my brother." Guan Gong said angrily, "This is what I say. Although I am in a dead land now, I look at it."

Death is as if you return. You should go quickly, and I will go down the mountain to fight." Zhang Liao laughed loudly and said, "Do you not laugh at the world for this statement?" The Duke said, "I died with loyalty and righteousness, how can I laugh at the world for the world?" Liao said, "Brother is dead now, and there are three crimes." The Duke said, "When Liu envoys made a fuss with his brother, he swears to live and die together. Now the envoy was defeated, and his brother died in battle. If you come back and want to ask for help from your brother, but you cannot get it again, wouldn't you let down the oath of the past? The one who was guilty of Liu envoys for his family to his brother. Now his brother died in battle, and the second wife had no support, but he was responsible for the heavy support of the emperor. The second crime was the second crime. The brother was very skilled in martial arts and was well-versed in the classics and history. He did not think that he would send the king to support the Han Dynasty. He wanted to go through fire and water to become the courage of a common man. How could he be righteous? The third crime was the third crime. The brother had these three crimes, and he had to sue him."

The Duke pondered and said, "You said I have three sins, how do you want me?" Liao said, "Now there are soldiers from Cao Gong on all sides. If your brother does not surrender, he will die. It is useless to die alone. It is better to surrender Cao Gong. But if you ask Liu Envoy, if you know where you will go, you will surrender. One can protect the second wife, the other will not violate the agreement in Taoyuan, and the third can leave a useful body: if you have these three temps, you should carefully consider it." The Duke said, "Brother said that I have three temps. I have three temps. If the Prime Minister can follow, I should remove my armor; if he does not allow me, I would rather die in three temps." Liao said, "The Prime Minister is rich and has a lot of money, so what should I not tolerate? I would like to hear three things." The Duke said, "One, I have a vow with the emperor to support the Han Dynasty. Now I will only surrender to the Emperor Emperor, but not Cao Cao; the second sister-in-law asks the emperor to support the emperor's uncle. The first is that I will give him a salary and support the Han Dynasty. The second is that the second sister-in-law asks the emperor's uncle to support the Han Dynasty. The first is to respond to the emperor's uncle.

The servants and others were not allowed to go to the door; the third one, only know where the Emperor Liu was going, no matter how many miles away, they should be resigned: one of the three is missing, and they will never surrender. I hope Wenyuan will report it urgently." Zhang Liao responded to the promise, so he got on the horse and returned to Cao Cao. He first talked about whether to surrender to the Han Dynasty or not. Cao laughed and said, "I am the prime minister of Han, and Han is me. This can be followed." Liao said, "The second wife wants to ask for the Emperor's salary, and the superiors and subordinates are not allowed to go to the door." Cao said, "I will give it to him more than once. As for strictly prohibiting the inside and outside, it is a family law, so why doubt it!" Liao said, "I know the information of Xuande, and even if it is far away." Cao shook his head and said, "How can I raise Yunchang? This matter is difficult to follow." Liao said, "Didn't you hear that Yu asked everyone to go? Liu Xuande waited Yunchang

But the kindness is so good. The Prime Minister has given his kindness to make his heart more. Why worry about Yun Chang's disobedience?" Cao said, "Wen Yuan's words are very worthy, I would like to go from these three things." Zhang Liao went to the mountain to return to Guan Gong. Guan Gong said, "Although this is the case, I will temporarily ask the Prime Minister to retreat, let me go into the city to see my second sister-in-law, tell me about the matter, and then surrender." Zhang Liao replied again, and reported to Cao Cao with this statement. Cao immediately sent an order and retreated thirty miles. Xun Yu said, "You may not be a fool." Cao said, "Yun Chang's righteous man will not lose his trust." So he led the army to retreat. Guan Gong led his troops into Xia Pi. Seeing that the people were still unmoved, he actually came to the mansion. He came to see his second sister-in-law. Gan. When Mrs. Mi heard that Guan Gong came, he hurried out to welcome him. The Duke bowed to the steps and said, "It is a crime for me to be frightened by my second sister-in-law." The second wife said, "Uncle Emperor's uncle."

Where is now?" The Duke said, "I don't know where to go." The second wife said, "What are the two uncles now?" The Duke said, "Guan went out of the city to fight to the death and was trapped in Tushan. Zhang Liao advised me to surrender. I made an appointment with three things. Cao Cao had agreed to all of them, so he retreated his troops and let me enter the city. I never got my sister-in-law's advice and did not dare to do anything." The second wife asked, "Those three things?" Guan Gong said, "These three things?" Guan Gong said, "I thought Cao would die yesterday. We all thought that we would die. Who would not want to make any move, and the first army would not dare to enter. Since the uncle has already received the promise, why ask me both of us? I am afraid that Cao Cao will not allow my uncle to go to find the emperor's uncle in the future." The Duke said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, Guan has his own opinions." The second wife said, "Uncle has his own office, so we don't have to ask my daughter in everything."

Guan Gong dismissed, and then led dozens of cavalry to meet Cao Cao. Cao went out of the gate to meet him. Guan Gong got off his horse and came in to bow, and Cao hurriedly replied. Guan Gong said, "If you defeated the general of the army, you will be so kind to kill him." Cao said, "I admire Yun Chang's loyalty and righteousness. Today I am fortunate to meet each other, which is enough to comfort my life's hope." Guan Gong said, "Wen Yuan reported three things in his time, and Meng Cheng agreed to it, and I will not break my word." Cao said, "After my words come out, how dare I break my trust." Guan Gong said, "If Guan knew where the emperor was, even if he was trampling on water and fire, he would go and follow him. At this time, I was afraid that I would not be able to say goodbye, so I beg for the Yuan." Cao said, "Xuande Ruo

I will go with you, but I am afraid that the army will be destroyed. Please be content with the rebellious army. You are so kind and still can't listen." Guan Gong thanked him. Cao held a banquet to greet him. The next day, he returned to Xuchang. Guan Gong packed up the carriage and asked his second sister-in-law to get on the carriage and escorted him. He closed the road and stayed at the inn. Cao wanted to disrupt the etiquette of the ruler and his ministers, so that Guan Gong and his second sister-in-law would live in the same room. Guan Gong stood outdoors with candles, and he went to the morning of the night without any tiredness. Cao saw that he was so respectful. After he arrived in Xuchang, Cao transferred a mansion and Guan Gong to live with Guan Gong. Guan Gong divided a house with two courtyards, and ten old soldiers were guarded by the inner gate. Guan Gong lived in an outside house.

Cao led Guan Gong to meet Emperor Xian, and the emperor ordered him to be a general. The Duke thanked him for his kindness. The next day, Cao held a big banquet, and the counselors and warriors treated Guan Gong with courtesy, and he served him at the top of the seat. He also prepared silk, brocade and gold and silver utensils to send him to his second sister-in-law. Guan Gong came to Xuchang, and Cao treated him very well: three days of a small banquet and five days of a big banquet; ten beauties were sent to Guan Gong. Guan Gong sent all the inner door and ordered him to serve the second sister-in-law. However, he bowed to the outside of the inner door once every three days and asked if the second sister-in-law was safe. The second wife asked about the emperor's affairs and said, "Uncle was willing to do it by himself." Guan Gong dared to retreat. Cao heard this and admired Guan Gong.

One day, Cao saw that Guan Gong was wearing a green brocade battle robe, so he immediately saved his body and took a different brocade battle robe and gave it to him. Guan Gong received it and put it on the bottom of his clothes. The emperor still covered it with an old robe. Cao laughed and said, "Why is the robe so frugal?" The emperor said, "Is it not frugal. The old robe given by Emperor Liu. I wore it as if I met my brother. I dared not forget my brother's old gift with the Prime Minister's new gift, so I wore it on the superior." Cao sighed and said, "It's a true righteous man!" Although he said, "It's a true righteous man!"

, I was really unhappy. One day, Guan Gong was in the mansion and suddenly reported: "The second wife of the inner courtyard cried to the ground. For some reason, please ask the general to enter quickly." Guan Gong then knelt outside the inner door and asked his second sister-in-law why she was crying. Mrs. Gan said: "I dreamed that the emperor was trapped in a pit at night. I came to discuss it with Mrs. Mi, and wanted to be under the nine springs! So I cried." Guan Gong said: "You should not rely on trust in your dreams. This is because my sister-in-law misses her. Please do not be worried."

Just as Cao Cao ordered an envoy to invite Guan Gong to the banquet. The Duke said to his second sister-in-law and went to see Cao. Cao saw that he had tears in his eyes and asked him why. The Duke said, "My second sister-in-law was crying bitterly, but she couldn't help but feel sad." Cao laughed and relieved him, and often persuaded him with wine. The Duke was drunk and said, "I can't repay the country for my life, but I'm bearded, and I'm only a human being!" Cao asked, "Is there a number of long beards in the clouds?" The Duke said, "About hundreds of beards. Every autumn month, I'm about three or five. I often wrapped them with soap gauze bags, for fear that they would break." Cao used a brocade to make a bag and protected his beard with Guan Gong. The next day, I met the emperor in the morning. The emperor saw Guan Gong a brocade hanging on his chest. The emperor asked him. Guan Gong reported, "My beard is quite long, and the prime minister gave him a bag to store it." The emperor ordered the palace to brush it, and it was too much to his belly. The emperor said, "It's really a beautiful beard!" Therefore, everyone called him "Beautiful beards".

Suddenly one day, Cao invited Guan Gong to have a banquet. Before he was separated, he sent him out of the mansion. When he saw the pavilion horse thin, Cao said, "Why is the pavilion thin?" Guan Gong said, "The body is quite heavy and the horse cannot carry it, so he is always thin." Cao ordered his left and right to prepare a horse. He was led to him for a moment. The horse was like charcoal and looked very majestic. Cao pointed and said, "Do you know this horse?" The duke said, "Is it the red rabbit horse that Lu Bu rode?" Cao said, "That's it." Then he sent him to Guan Gong. Guan Gong bowed and thanked him again. Cao was unhappy and said, "Is it the red rabbit horse that Lu Bu rode?" Cao said, "That's it." : "I have given you gold and silk to the beautiful woman, but I have never bowed her back. Now I give you a horse, so I am happy and worship you again: Why are you a slutty and noble? " Guan Gong said, "I know that this horse travels thousands of miles a day, but now I am lucky to get it. If you know where your brother is, you can meet in one day." Cao was shocked and regretted. Guan Gong resigned. Later generations sighed and said, "The power of the three countries is full of heroes, and the one house is separated and the righteousness is high. The treacherous general is treating him with polite courtesy. How could Guan Yu not surrender to Cao?" Cao asked Zhang Liao and said, "I am not thin, but Why do you always feel the desire to leave? Liao said, "Rong explores his feelings." The next day, he went to see Guan Gong. After the ceremony, Liao said, "I recommend my brother to be with the Prime Minister, and have never fallen behind?" The Duke said, "I deeply feel the prime minister's kindness. But even though I am here, I have never thought about the emperor's uncle." Liao said, "I have said that my brother is not serious, and I am not a husband. Xuande treats my brother, but he may not be more important than the prime minister. Why do you only have the desire to leave?" The Duke said, "I know that Cao Gong treats me very well. But I am not a husband. He received the kindness of Emperor Liu, and vowed to die together, and he should not bear it. I will never leave this. I must submit it to you to repay Cao Gong and then leave." Liao said, "If Xuande has abandoned the world, where will you return?" The Duke said, "I wish to follow the ground." Liao knew that the Duke could not stay, so he retreated. When he returned to Cao Cao, he told him truthfully. Cao sighed, "The master did not forget his roots, he is a righteous man in the world!" Xun Yu said, "He said that he would only leave if he made merit. If he did not teach him to make merit, he might not leave." Cao said, "He said that he would only leave. If he did not teach him to make merit, he might not leave." Cao said, "He said that he would not forget his roots."

But Xuande was in Yuan Shao and was worried every day. Shao said, "Why did Xuande always worry?" Xuande said, "The second brother did not know that his voice was exhausted, and his wife was trapped in Cao's thieves; the superiors could not serve the country, and the subordinates could not protect their families: How can I not worry?" Shao said, "I have been going to advance to Xudu for a long time. This spring is warm, and it is time to raise troops." So he discussed the strategy to defeat Cao. Tian Feng advised, "Cao attacked Xuzhou, and Xudu was empty and could not advance at this time; now Xuzhou has been broken, and Cao's troops are square, so it is better to underestimate the enemy. He held on for a long time and waited for it to move before he could move." Shao said, "When I think about it." He asked Xuande, "How is Tian Feng advised me to stick to it!" Xuande said, "If Cao Cao deceived the king, if Ming Gong did not attack him, he would probably lose the great righteousness of the world." Shao said, "Xuande's words are very good." So he wanted to raise an army. Tian Feng advised him again. Shao said, "You are using literature and despised military affairs, which will make me lose the great righteousness!" Tian Feng paused his head and said, "If you don't listen to your good words, it will be unfavorable to go out." Shao was furious and wanted to kill him.

Xuande persuaded him, so he was imprisoned. When Ju Su saw Tian Feng being imprisoned, he met his clan and dispersed his family's wealth. He told him, "I will leave with the army. If I win, I will be more powerful. If I lose, I will be unable to protect myself!" Everyone gave me tears.

Shao sent the general Yan Liang as a vanguard to attack Baima. Ju Su advised, "Yan Liang is narrow-minded and brave, he cannot be appointed alone." Shao said, "You are not the general you can expect." The army advanced to Liyang, and the prefect of Dongjun Liu Yan told Xuchang urgently. Cao Cao urgently proposed to raise troops to attack the enemy. When Guan Gong heard that, he went to the prime minister's office and said, "I heard that the prime minister raised his troops, and I wanted to be the front." Cao said, "I dare not bother the general.

Sooner or later, I will invite you to ask me." Guan Gong then retreated.

Cao led 150,000 troops and walked in three teams. On the road, he connected Liu Yan's urgent documents. Cao first brought 50,000 troops to visit the white horse and stalked on the earth. Looking at the plains and wilderness in front of the mountain, Yan Liang's front troops were 100,000 elite soldiers formed a formation. Cao was shocked and looked back at the former general of Lu Bu, Song Xian, and said, "I heard that you are a powerful general under Lu Bu. Now you can fight Yan Liang." Song Xian led his No, and got on the horse and went straight out of the battle. Yan Liang hurriedly rode his sword under the gate. Seeing Song Xian's horse arrive, Liang shouted loudly,

The horse came to meet. The battle was not three times, and the sword fell down with his hand and killed Song Xian in front of the formation. Cao Cao was shocked and said, "I am a brave general!" Wei Xu said, "Kill my companion, I am willing to take revenge!" Cao Xu said, "I will hold my spear and go out of the formation, cursing Yan Liang. Liang did not even talk, and handed over the horse together, and cut Wei Xu under the horse. Cao said, "Who dares to take it now?" Xu Huang responded and fought with Yan Liang for twenty times, and returned to his original formation. The generals Li Ran. Cao Cao conquered the army, and Liang also led his army to retreat.

Cao saw two generals beheading each other and felt depressed. Cheng Yu said, "I can compete with Yan Liang." Cao asked who it was. Yu said, "I must be Guan Gong." Cao said, "I am afraid that he will leave after he made merit." Yu said, "If Liu Bei is here, he will definitely surrender to Yuan Shao. If Yun Chang defeats Yuan Shao's troops, Shao will doubt Liu Bei and kill him. After Bei died, how can Yun Chang go?" Cao was overjoyed and sent someone to ask Guan Gong. Guan Gong immediately went to say goodbye to the second sister-in-law. The second sister-in-law said, "Uncle is here now, can you find out the emperor's uncle?

News." Guan Gong led the leader of the lord, carried the blue dragon sword, and raised the red rabbit horse, and led several followers until the white horse came to see Cao Cao. Cao said, "Yan Liang killed two generals in a row, and he was not brave enough. I specially asked Yun Chief to discuss it." Guan Gong said, "Rong looked at it." Cao put wine and treated him. Suddenly, he reported to Yan Liang for a fight. Cao led Guan Gong to watch the earthen mountain. Cao sat with Guan Gong, and the generals stood around. Cao Cao pointed to Yan Liang's formation at the foot of the mountain, with clear flags, sharp guns and swords, and strict and powerful, so he said to Guan Gong:

"Hebei people and horses are so majestic!" Guan Gong said, "I look at it like a native chicken, tiled and dog ears!" Cao pointed and said, "Under the cap, the embroidered robe and gold armor, and hold a knife and stand up at the horse, is Yan Liang." Guan Gong looked up and said, "I looked at Yan Liang like I was putting on a sign to sell my head!" Cao said, "You can't be looked down upon." Guan Gong stood up and said, "Although I am not talented, I want to go to the army to take his head and come to offer it to the Prime Minister." Zhang Liao said, "There is no joke in the army, and the long clouds should not be ignored."

"Guan Gong got on the horse with great enthusiasm, lifted the Blue Dragon Sword backwards, ran down the mountain, with his phoenix eyes wide open, and his eyebrows were straight up, rushing straight to the formation. The Hebei army was like waves and waves cracking, Guan Gong ran straight to Yan Liang. Yan Liang was under the cap and saw Guan Gong rushing towards him. When he was about to ask, Guan Gong was fast and had already run to him. Yan Liang was caught off guard, and was stabbed by Yun Chang's hand. Suddenly, he got off the horse, cut Yan Liang's head, tied it under the horse's neck, flew on his body, and lifted the sword out of the formation, as if he had entered a nobody's land.

The soldiers and generals in Hebei were shocked and would be in chaos without fighting. Cao's army took advantage of the situation to attack, and countless dead people died; horses and equipment were robbed. Guan Gong led his horse up the mountain, and all the generals praised him. Gong Xian's head was in front of Cao. Cao said, "The general is really a god!" Guan Gong said, "What's the point! My brother Zhang Yide took the general's head from a million troops, just like taking objects." Cao was shocked and looked back and said, "If you meet Zhang Yide in the future, you should not underestimate the enemy." The order was written on the bottom of your robe to record it.

However, Yan Liang ran back and met Yuan Shao halfway. He reported that he was a brave general with a red-faced long beard and used a big sword to kill Yan Liang. He was defeated. Shao asked in shock, "Who is this person?" Ju Su said, "This must be Liu Xuande's younger brother Guan Yunchang." Shao was furious and pointed at Xuande and said, "Your brother killed my beloved general, you must work together, what's the point of leaving me?" He called the sword and axe driver to push out Xuande to kill him.
