Speaking of Jurchen names, no matter how weird they are, they are like Wanyan Oru and Wanyan Orugu. Although they only have the final sound of a toad, they are two completely different people.
Oru's bloodline is nobler than that of Oru Gu, but because the prime minister of the country changed his brother, his achievements will be greater.
Now Orulu died at the hands of Sun An when he and Po Luhuo pursued him. Orulu was ordered to march along the Great Wall and surprise Shuozhou.
There were originally four powerful generals under Oru, Huou, Puhude, Hu Lagu, and Wu Cun. When they attacked Shahukou, Wu Cun died at the hands of Qin Ming, leaving only three others.
There are also a pair of sons, Wanyan Saba and Wanyan Saili, both only more than 20 years old, who took them with him to fight.
But the governor of Shuozhou was a capable man. He was a Jinshi of the Liao Kingdom. When Lou Shi came last year, his generals were arrogant and took away his wife. He regarded the Jin Kingdom as an enemy. When Lao Cao learned about it, he made him the governor.
Seeing the arrival of Oru and Lu, the prefect hurriedly closed the city. While mobilizing the people to defend, he sent people to Yanmen Pass to deliver a message.
Seeing that Shuozhou was well prepared, Oru didn't care. He formed a formation and attacked the city directly. The defenders of Shuozhou were less than a thousand, and the rest were all public servants, policemen, common people, and even servants of big families in the city. The Jin soldiers attacked For two hours, the soldiers and civilians in the city gradually became exhausted. Oru personally came to the city and shot Zhizhou to death with one arrow.
At this moment, a group of men and horses came from the east. Shi Bao, wearing armor and holding a sword, took the lead and charged in from the side of the golden soldiers. He raised his sword and hacked at the golden soldiers indiscriminately. He was unstoppable.
General Jin stepped forward to block him, but the two men fought for only five or six times. Hao Siwen suddenly rushed out from behind Shi Bao and fired a shot, stabbing him at the foot of his horse.
Oru looked back and saw the chaos in the formation, and wondered: "How did his reinforcements arrive so fast?" The eldest son Saba said to him: "This must be the garrison of Yanmen. If there are troops from other places, how can they arrive so quickly?"
When Oru heard this, he was not surprised but overjoyed. He laughed and said, "I took Shuozhou because I wanted to capture Yanmen, but he sent his troops to rescue me. Isn't Yanmen Pass empty?"
Immediately, the order was sent: "Return to attack and kill, get out of the way, and force them into the city."
It turns out that Oru had some calculations in his mind:
Previously, Zhe Keqiu explained the geography of Shanxi in Jinying and spoke highly of the importance of Yanmen Pass: "In the nine states behind the mountains, the Tiger Killing Pass is the north gate, Juyong Pass is the east gate, and Yanmen Pass is the south gate. In the past, when the Song and Liao dynasties were in confrontation, the Song State relied entirely on Yanmen Pass to resist When the Liao army goes south, if the Liao people get it, they can come and go at will, and they may not be able to maintain peace with the Song Dynasty for a hundred years."
Oru was a veteran general who knew how to attack the enemy. In his opinion, he had already gained the opportunity to kill the tiger. If he captured Yanmen Pass and occupied two of the three gates at the back of the mountain, not to mention advancing and retreating freely, even if the opponent wanted to send reinforcements, there would be only one left. By detouring all the way to Juyongguan, one can leave Yanmen and go south at any time, making it difficult for the enemy to keep track of the enemy.
He also determined that Yanmen Pass was now in the hands of Lao Cao, with depth on both the north and south sides, and would never deploy heavy troops like a tiger's mouth. Now that he was sent to aid Shuozhou, the Jin soldiers took advantage of the opportunity to seize the pass.
Oru led more than 10,000 troops in this expedition. At this moment, he gave up the siege and fought back. Shi Bao had few soldiers and did not dare to fight for a long time. Suddenly he saw that all the golden soldiers at the city gate had withdrawn. He was overjoyed and quickly led his troops into the city.
With the support of the soldiers in the city, the morale was greatly boosted. Oru took advantage of the situation and retreated a few miles, and set up camp outside the city. After passing the city, he ran towards Yanmen Pass.
There were veterans in his army who had fought with Lou Shi in the past. They knew the geography of this place and led the army to rush around in the middle of the night. When they arrived at Yanmen Pass, it was already bright.
Oru wanted to seize the city directly, but when he looked up, he couldn't help but cry out in pain: "Ah, ah, ah, how could it be like this? Wu Nanman has so many troops here, but who should he guard against?"
What do you think? But the mountains on both sides of Yanmen Pass, high and low, are covered with flags. Countless flags are fluttering in the wind. At a glance, it looks like there are thousands of troops stationed there!
At this point, the reader not only has to ask: That's not right, it is clearly stated that there were three thousand garrison troops at Yanmen Pass, Shi Bao and others took away two thousand, and there should only be one thousand left.
But yesterday, after Shi Bao and others left, "Miracle Doctor" An Daoquan stood at the gate and looked down at Guancheng. He saw two or three big cats and kittens, and he couldn't help but feel deeply uneasy.
After thinking hard, I pulled off countless beards and suddenly came up with a plan——
The reason why An is worried is because there are few people. If there are many people, it will be as stable as Mount Tai. So now, although there are few people, I can pretend to be many! This is just like Prime Minister Zhuge's empty city strategy!
As soon as he slapped the table, he immediately ordered people to take out all the flags from the warehouse. Regardless of whether the flags were written on the flags, they rushed to the surrounding hills overnight to plant a dazzling array of flags.
More than a hundred people were sent out in small groups, each with gongs and drums to guard a hill. If someone attacked a key point, they would beat the gongs and drums together, dance flags and make noise, creating a look of siege from all sides.
He had been busy here for most of the night. Not long after he finished it, he heard a report from a soldier, saying that a group of golden soldiers were coming from the front of the pass, numbering about seven or eight thousand.
After An Daoquan heard this, he was shocked at first, and then he was happy: Don't be afraid, I have a majestic pass here, and I have thousands of troops stationed here. How dare he come to attack with thousands of other soldiers?
Thinking like this, I felt guilty again, thinking that Zhuge Liang had coaxed Sima Yi. That was because Sima Yi was smart and cautious. If it were Xu Chu who saw no one in the city, how could he not attack in one fell swoop? Didn't Xu You find the wrong person when he was showing off?
Inferring from this, if the Jin general outside the city is a reckless man who likes to fight tough battles, wouldn't he be immediately exposed when he attacks? It is safe to try to completely scare the other party.
So he ordered all the troops to polish their armor, swords and guns, and followed him to the top of the city.
Guan Xia Oru was feeling annoyed when he suddenly saw a group of soldiers marching up to the city. Then one of them put his hand on the hilt of his sword and shouted condescendingly: "Hey! I am An Daoquan, the general guarding Yanmen Pass. Who is the general below? Do you dare to stand in front of the formation? answer!"
Wanyan Oru, who had experienced hundreds of battles, was naturally not afraid. He immediately jumped out of the crowd, and under the protection of his two sons, he ran straight to a stone's throw and shouted: "Stop the guard and listen to the truth. This is Wanyan Oru, the general of the Jin Kingdom." Lu! I am here today to tell you that the Tiger Killing Pass has been breached by our big gold, and the generals guarding the pass have been almost wiped out. Now 200,000 troops are advancing in three directions, taking all the land of the past. You are If you are wise, switch on and off and surrender without losing your wealth and honor. If you want to hold on, watch for the example of killing a tiger's mouth!"
After saying these words, everyone in the city garrison changed their colors.
Most of these defenders were former soldiers and civilians of the Liao Kingdom. Their fighting ambitions were limited. How could they not be afraid of what Oru and Lu had to say?
An Daoquan also trembled and thought, yes! If he couldn't defeat the tiger, how could he march straight in and hit Shuozhou? Oops, Shi Bao and the others are probably in trouble, or else the other party will come to Yanmen Pass with a big attack?
The more I thought about it, the more scared I became, but I refused to show weakness. I raised my head and laughed three times.
Oru frowned and wondered where this guard came from? Why does laughing sound worse than crying?
An Daoquan tried his best to laugh, and said with a trembling voice: "You golden dog, you want to deceive me, am I so easy to be fooled? Do you think I don't know? You are just a small bandit. , I don’t know how I sneaked in through the mountains and ridges, but came to deceive me, Yanmen Pass!"
Wanyan Oru's face changed slightly. What he said was indeed not entirely true. Unexpectedly, the other party saw through it, but he still wondered, why was the other party so afraid? His voice almost sounded like crying.
An Daoquan looked at Oru's gloomy face and cold eyes. He couldn't help but tremble in his legs. He secretly felt that he couldn't hold on after eating. He didn't get cramps even after holding on, so he hurriedly said: "I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid to sue. Let me tell you, I am at Yanmen Pass." , there are 30,000 heroes, heroes, all of them are heroes who are not afraid of life and death. If you have the talent, you can come and attack the problem. An is worried, he is worried that he will not be promoted and make a fortune..."
Having said this, he turned around and walked away, but he walked more slowly, which would frighten him.
As soon as he left, the soldiers suddenly panicked.
Wanyan Oru's eyes were fixed on the city wall, and his eldest son Saba said: "Father, this guy is timid. This Yanmen Pass might be full of suspicious soldiers! Let's give it a fight."
Wanyan Oru looked gloomy and shook his head slowly: "Don't you think he went too far?"
"If this person is really timid, why would he make a fool of himself in front of me? My father thought, he is deliberately deceiving me into solving the problem."
"Ah?" "Ah?" The two sons were stunned.
Oru nodded and became more and more certain: "Just set up camp in front of the pass and wait and see what happens. If he really has a lot of troops and sees that I can't seal the pass, he will definitely attack in three or two days. We will ambush him in advance and take advantage of the opportunity." Seize the pass, if he doesn't come, he will be a suspect, and we will forcefully break the pass."
"It only takes about three or two days, we can afford to wait!"
"Ah, congratulations, father!"
When Oru said this with confidence, tens of thousands of troops were showing off their power and flags on the Xinzhou Road, and they were rushing towards Yanmen Pass.
There are different teachings:
Standing proudly on the peaks, the flag is bright, and the lonely city alone guards the road and everyone is shocked. I don’t know that the heroes behind me are all Erlang’s victorious soldiers!
