Since Du Yu, the captain of Guandu who was guarding Jingxing Pass, was killed by Li Liang, deputy captain Song Yan no longer dared to fight. He kept strict orders all day long and watched Zhao Jun's actions closely. But Li Liang was yelling and challenging all day long in front of the pass. He was very impatient when he saw that the Qin army did not come out. A few days later, Li Liang asked the sergeant to attack the closed gate with a stone cart. The huge stone knocked down the closed watchtower, but the closed gate remained intact. Li Liang asked the sergeant to send large bundles of dry firewood to Guanxia, and soon they piled up a high mountain. Then he wrapped the wine jar in oilcloth, lit it on fire, and hit the door against the door. When the jar hit something hard, it exploded, and the fire spread in all directions. In a short time, the dry wood was ignited.
Seeing the situation in front of him, Song Yan urgently ordered the sergeant to put out the fire. But before the Qin army reached the pass, they were hit by a burst of violent boulders, causing their brains to burst out and they died at the pass. Half an hour later, the door was closed and burned down. When Li Liang saw that the gate was destroyed, he ordered the sergeant to prepare and wait until the fire was out before entering the gate. The sergeants lined up in neat queues and waited in front of the gate. The fire was out after an hour. Zhao Jun was about to enter the gate when he suddenly heard the sound of golden drums and thousands of horses galloping after the gate was closed. Then a Qin army suddenly rushed out from the burned gate. After they came out of the gate, they all came to kill Zhao Jun. The Zhao army was caught off guard and was hacked and killed by the Qin army. They were killed and fled in all directions, completely defeated. Li Liang was also shocked by the sudden attack and had no choice but to lead everyone back. When the Qin army saw that the Zhao army had retreated, they returned to the pass and blocked the pass with chariots.
It turned out that it was the vanguard of the Great Wall Army that attacked Zhao Jun. Under the leadership of Wu Ming, Wang Su and others, they rushed out of the pass and killed Zhao Jun for a while, and then returned to the pass. After a while, Wang Li's team arrived, and they raised the tent to discuss matters. Song Yan told the story of how Guan Duwei was killed. Wang Li pondered for a moment and said: "We traveled all night. We all worked very hard and were not in a hurry to fight. Although Li Liang was defeated for a while today, I heard that he was the 'Hebei Tiger'. Now that Lieutenant Guan Du has been killed, it is also It is confirmed that the rumors are not false. Moreover, the thieves' morale is high, so they should stay away from the enemy for a while and not underestimate the enemy." After hearing this, General Shexian stood up and said unconvinced: "General Wang, how can you gain other people's ambition and destroy your own prestige? ? We killed all the Huns until they cried for their fathers. What kind of tiger is Li Liang? At best, he is just a pig! I am willing to leave the seclusion and capture that kid alive!" Wang Li said seriously: "Our army is on the road day and night. The men are trapped and the horses are exhausted. Don't show off your courage and lose your spirit." She Xian said boldly: "I am willing to issue a military order! If we don't win, cut off my head!" Wang Li said: "Don't be impatient and attack Li Liang." It's just a side dish, I have my own reasons." She Xian asked if he had any clever ideas. Wang Li said: "We have just arrived at Guan Pass, and we don't know the thieves, and the thieves don't know us either. He will come tomorrow to continue the challenge. When Li Liang's morale is exhausted, I will personally beat the drum for you to help you fight, and you will Let's go out and fight. Let me see what's going on with Li Liang?" After hearing this, She Xian felt relieved.
The next day, Wang Li came to Guan Guan, pretending to be a partial general, and asked Song Yan to speak, while he stood aside and watched Li Liang. Li Liang was naturally majestic. He continued to come to the pass to challenge. When he saw Song Yan, he pointed his whip and said, "Song Yan, man, you dared to leave the pass yesterday. Do you dare to come out again today?" Song Yan He said: "I like to carry out sneak attacks. If you are ready today, I will not come out to disturb you anymore. But once I figure out that the killer will come out, your head will be moved!" Li Liang became angry, so Zhao Jun was ordered to attack again. The Qin army immediately shot arrows. Zhao Jun attacked from morning to afternoon and could not get close at all. The sergeants were still very tired.
When Li Liang saw that Song Yan still didn't come out and had nothing to do, he stopped the attack. But just as they were preparing to return to the camp, there was a sudden loud tremor of the golden drum in Guan Guan, and a Qin general single-handedly came out from the narrow thoroughfare. It was none other than Qin General She Xian. Li Liang didn't recognize him either, so he quickly turned his horse's head to fight. When General Qin approached, he saw She Xian with a red face and a red beard, wearing a red battle robe, like the god of fire descending from the earth. Li Liang was startled and asked, "You look like a fireball, and you look like a hero. Please give me a name, or you will become a nameless ghost!" She Xian saw Li Liang uttering arrogant words, and saw him again. He had a white face and purple beard, a pair of triangular eyes, a short and curly beard, and looked very evil. He yelled: "Curly-haired ghost, don't ask for his name. After fighting for a hundred rounds, you will know what my grandpa's name is." !" Li Liang saw that this man was so arrogant and rude, so he said: "Am I still afraid of you, a red-haired ghost?" So he stepped forward to fight. The two men raised their spears and halberds at the pass, charging or stabbing, slashing or chopping, sweeping or challenging, hooking or chopping. They fought for eighty rounds, but there was still no winner. The cheers from the sergeants on both sides were endless.
When Wang Li saw Li Liang's martial arts, he couldn't help but praise him for his kindness, and immediately sent an order to withdraw his troops. She Xian was fighting vigorously in the pass when he suddenly heard the sound of a golden gong. He abandoned Li Liang and rode back to the pass. When She Xian saw Wang Li, he said, "I was about to capture that guy alive. Why did the general withdraw his troops?" Wang Li said, "I think Li Liang's martial arts skills are not inferior to yours, and I was afraid that you would make another mistake, so I withdrew my troops. Now I want to use a strategy to deal with that guy." Sir." She Xian said: "I said I must defeat him, but the winner has not been decided yet, so everyone is laughing at me." Wang Li said: "You are very brave in fighting, everyone has seen it, but it is getting late, so we can't continue Let's fight." She Xian said: "We can arrange a night battle. I must catch that curly ghost!" Wang Li said: "No need. Although Li Liang is very skilled in martial arts, he is a repetitive person. I only need to use some strategies. , he will help us accomplish things!" Hearing this, the two-foot-long monk Shexian was really confused.
That night, Wang Li came to Guan Guan again to observe Li Liang's military camp. He saw the torches in the camp were bright and the camp was stationed in an orderly manner. He said to himself: "Li Liang is also a general, but it is a pity that this man is very poor." Reliable! He has strong men and horses now, and the road in front of the pass is narrow, which is not conducive to a big battle. The outcome is not easy to decide?" He asked Song Yan if he knew some details about Li Liang's stay in Zhao. Song Yan said: "I heard that after Li Liang captured Hengshan, military officials took away his military power for a time. He seemed to be jealous, so he stayed in the palace. Later, it was Li Liang who took the initiative to ask for military service and was able to get a troop of soldiers and horses. Come and fight." After hearing this, Wang Li pondered for a moment and suddenly said with a smile: "Li Liang is originally an official of the Qin State. It is reasonable for the military officials to be suspicious of him? Haha, I already have a way to deal with him! The military officials use this method How can we be invincible? Now that our army has been recuperating for a few days, we don’t have to fight anymore! In a few days, they will definitely have internal strife, hahaha!" After hearing this, Song Yan didn't understand Wang Li. What did he mean, so he asked: "How should the general deal with him?" Wang Li whispered a few words in Song Yan's ear. Song Yan actually laughed happily after hearing this.
Early the next morning, Wang Li came to the gate dressed neatly, beating drums and blowing trumpets. As if a big shot had arrived, he called Li Liang to come and talk to him. Li Liang heard that someone had come to Guan Guan, and the scene was very grand, so he quickly left the camp and went to Guan Xia to check. As soon as Wang Li saw Li Liang, he said with a smile: "General Li, how are you?" Li Liang said: "Who are you?" Wang Li said: "I am Wang Jian's grandson and Wang Ben's son Wang Li. We are in the north, so we have never met the general again, but the general's name is so well known!" Seeing Wang Li coming, Li Liang was shocked and said: "General Wang has admired you for a long time. You are guarding the north. Now that you are here, aren't you afraid of the Huns? Are they going to Xianyang?" Wang Li said: "I killed the general of the Huns and beat King Youxian to a pulp. They fled with their tails between their legs and couldn't even find a shadow. Now those Huns heard me How could they dare to attack Xianyang? Haha!" Li Liang said: "Young second-generation boy is stupid and ignorant, and the demise of Qin is only a matter of time. You are here now, and it will not help? Wang Li said: "My ancestors were generals for three generations, and they were all loyal ministers of the Qin State. Whatever happens to the Lord is the Lord's business, but a minister must not lose his duty as a loyal minister? I think the general surrendered before." That villager and military official couldn't help himself, right? But general, if you abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side now, and start a new life, Emperor Qin will definitely reuse the general?" Li Liang laughed and said, "Qin's law is so harsh, who in the world doesn't know about it? I Now that I have betrayed Qin and surrendered to Zhao, I have already made up my mind to fight Qin to the end. How can I serve that bastard again? Besides, that kid will not let me go. Although you are the commander-in-chief of the Great Wall Army, I also I'm not afraid of you, and you don't want to talk too much nonsense, so you can surrender as soon as possible?" Wang Li smiled and said: "I regard the Huns' millions of troops as nothing but grass, do I care about you? Haha! I also admire the general's talent today, too. Remember that we were all officials of the Qin State in the past, otherwise I would have fought my way out of the country." So the Qin army was asked to put up the no-war card first. Li Liang saw that the Qin army had put up a no-war sign, and he didn't know what kind of medicine Wang Li was selling in his gourd.
On the night of the second day, the moon rose slowly from the east, and the entire Guanshan Mountain was shrouded in white gauze, and the scenery was extremely beautiful. Wang Li asked the Qin army to light lanterns of various colors on the Guan Tower, and then asked a group of beautifully dressed women to come to the Guan Tower to sing and dance. It looked like they were singing and dancing, and it didn't look like they were on a battlefield at all. It turned out that Wang Li had prepared dozens of beautiful singers in advance, and asked them to come to the Guan Tower to sing and dance. Wang Li and the soldiers watched together, and everyone looked intoxicated. Li Liang saw it in Guanxia, and felt that it was ridiculous. He thought that Wang Li also had the same hobbies as him. But even though he is lustful, this is not the occasion. After a while, I heard the women singing melodious and melancholy songs with pure voices, and the songs were carried to the foot of Guanxia by the breeze. The Zhao soldiers were all imaginative after hearing this, and some couldn't help but think of their wives and children in their hometown.
It was like this for several nights in a row. Li Liang discussed with his generals: "King Zhao sent me to the pass just to seize the land east of Hedong. Now Wang Li not only shows his exemption card, but also teases me with women. What should I do?" The generals asked. They all said together: "I didn't expect that the famous general of the Qin State was also a bastard? Is he afraid of the general? In that case, how can we have fun by attacking them with stone chariots?" Li Liang said: "Wang Li It's not because he's afraid of me, but because he cares about our friendship as officials in the same court! How can I hit him with a stone when he treats me like this?" Suddenly a burst of beautiful singing came again. Li Liang and everyone left the camp and came to Guanxia to listen to the music. Just listen to the closed beauties singing:
The man is killing the enemy on the battlefield, while the daughter is lingering and guarding the empty house.
The shadows of the soul are lonely, the moon is bright and the night is cool.
I am full of sorrow and resentment. When can I express my heartfelt feelings to you? …
As Li Liang listened, he was fascinated by the singing. He did not return to camp until very late. That night, those lingering and pathos songs always lingered in his mind. Li Liang's heart was swaying, and he naturally thought of those days of fun and debauchery in Handan City, so most of his passion for fighting disappeared.
The next day, Li Liang came to Guanxia again and threatened to fight Wang Li alone. After Wang Li heard this at the gate, he laughed and picked up the wine glass and said: "General Li, listen to me, in this life, as a general and prime minister, wealth has come to an end. We are just drunk on the battlefield. General, please Don’t be ridiculous. Warriors who have gone to war since ancient times, how can you not miss home when you are away? Although I am strong in tactics and have no shortage of strategies, I am often so carefree on the battlefield. Now that I have beauties, wine and food to accompany me, spending a good night is also the joy of life. This life is indeed too short. We have all turned into old men in an instant. Why don’t you and I indulge in wine and sex? This is the demeanor of a great general. Hahaha, General Li, you don’t have the courage like me. And feelings? Hahaha..."
After Wang Li finished speaking, he just drank and turned a blind eye to Li Liang. When Li Liang saw Wang Li like this, he laughed and said, "Are you competing with me for drinking? It's ridiculous for Qin to use people like you to fight wars?" Wang Li laughed and sang again: "Fight the war." What's wrong? So what if you lose? So what if you win? A real general shouldn't just keep fighting on the battlefield. He should take it easy when he should be leisurely! A good night is worth a thousand pieces of gold, and a beautiful woman's bosom will be drunk; a thousand cups after a thousand cups, a beautiful shadow will help me quickly Come..." Sing, let the beauties help you down the building.
When Li Liang saw Wang Li leaving, he couldn't help shouting: "The war is about to begin. This is not the ability of a general! If it comes to drinking, you are not my opponent? When it comes to playing with women, what kind of woman have I not seen?" ?I used to be in Handan City, and King Zhao gave me countless beauties. Now this is a battlefield. If you have the courage, come out and fight! If you don’t have the courage, just go home and take care of your children? A drunkard and pervert like you , wine bag and rice bag, are you really not worthy of being a general? The second generation kid is blind when using you!" Wang Li hid inside and eavesdropped. He asked Song Yan to answer: "General Li, you were also the governor of the Qin State. , but now you are a little-known villager, what do you call a military general? How dare you laugh at our general after you have gotten so mixed up? Look at you, you are being suspected now, and you still want to show off here, you Why don't you go home and take care of your children? No matter how lustful our general is, he leads hundreds of thousands of troops. What about you? You should surrender to Qin?" Li Liang said angrily: "The second generation boy is cruel and unkind. , everyone wants to get it and kill it, but you advise me to destroy myself, how unreasonable is it? Come out quickly and fight!" Song Yan said: "Our general has said that he does not want to fight you. If he really wants to fight, You are no match for him!" After saying that, he ignored Li Liang and turned around to leave. Li Liang was angry and annoyed.
A few days later, Li Liangzheng discussed with the soldiers how to tackle the key problem. Suddenly someone reported that Wang Li had sent someone to deliver some jars of fine wine. Li Liang laughed and said, "He wants to poison me!" He asked the soldiers to pour wine into the manger and let the animals drink it. As a result, the livestock did not die. A few days later, Wang Li sent someone to deliver a lot of gold, jewelry and shells. Li Liang said happily: "This is a good thing, you can accept it." A few days later, Wang Li sent someone to send several more beauties. Li Liang was very happy and said: "Wang Li understands me, haha! Of course I can accept these 'gifts' with a smile!" A few days later, Wang Li sent another letter, which actually said "Imperial gift" "Seal" words. Li Liang was shocked when he saw the letter. He thought it was a letter from a second-generation boy, so he quickly opened it and read it, and saw that it read:
The Emperor of Qin gave a special letter to General Li Liang: You used to be a hero and governor of the Qin State, with outstanding military achievements. You should know the favor of the late emperor, and you should not let me down. But now you have betrayed the country and served the traitors, thus destroying the friendship between our monarch and his subjects. Don't you regret that? If you can repent, abandon the traitor and return to Qin again, I will definitely forgive your previous crimes of disobedience and promote you to a general. I will never break your promise. Please consider it carefully.
After Li Liang read the letter, he asked the messenger, "Where did the letter come from?" The sergeant said, "It's from Xianyang." After hearing this, Li Liang was surprised and sent the messenger away. After the envoy left, Li Liang thought for a long time and said to his subordinates: "Qin State values me so highly, what should I do?" Zhang Qiang said: "Qin State is still very powerful now, and Wang Li is the commander-in-chief of the Great Wall Army and a famous general of Qin State. , it is indeed difficult to succeed against him. Besides, our King Zhao is indeed not the lord of kings and tyrants, and Zhang Er and Chen Yu are also envious people! Obviously, it is difficult for a general to have a great general in the Zhao Kingdom. development!" Xue Yue also said: "I don't know whether this letter is true or false now, but even if Qin surrenders, will Qin State really reuse us? Qin's law is very strict, and those who surrender will not be let go. Why don't you take this opportunity and ask King Zhao for more reinforcements? You can use this to expand your strength. In the future, even if we don't get the land east of Hedong, we can still support ourselves here with troops, so that we are not restricted. Being in Zhao is not controlled by Qin, so you can do whatever you want in Hengshan!" Li Liang said happily: "Is this what you call great wealth?" Zhang Qiang laughed and said: "As long as you can occupy Hengshan, gaining fame and wealth is just a piece of cake. !" Li Liang was overjoyed and said: "This is a great plan, it just suits my purpose!" He immediately sent people to Handan to ask King Zhao for reinforcements.
