The Wei troops who can be selected at night and used to attack the city are all elite.
Not only were their numbers several times that of the Han army, but they were also prepared and unprepared, and they were led by insiders who were familiar with the situation inside the pass.
The Han army who came to check the situation realized that there was something wrong with the city gate, and was hacked to death by the Wei army who rushed from behind the county soldiers.
But compared to the Han army in the camp, they were lucky, after all, they could die clearly.
Many of the Han soldiers in the camp drank wine. Although it was not a lot, it just helped them sleep.
When the sentry on duty at the camp saw someone holding a torch and swinging around outside the camp, they didn't even think that the Wei army had entered the city.
"who?"
"Quick, go and inform everyone that there seems to be enemy troops outside the city and they want to attack the city at night!"
Although they were holding torches, they were a little far away, and they could only see that the people outside were wearing the clothes of county soldiers.
Hearing the messy words outside, the sentry's heart tightened, but he could still remember his responsibilities:
"Who's in the lead?"
"it's me!"
Guo Xun stood up and shouted to the camp, "Open the camp door quickly and let everyone get up!"
"It turns out to be Guo Shenjun."
Seeing Guo Xun, the sentry leader breathed a sigh of relief and asked someone to open the camp door. At the same time, he asked:
"There are thieves outside the city, why is Guo Canjun here..."
Halfway through the words, the team leader immediately realized, Guo Shenjun is here, why does it feel like something is wrong?
"Peng!"
An arrow shot from the county soldiers missed, and then a curse sounded:
"So much bullshit!"
The arrow missed quickly and hard, and the distance was extremely close.
"Uh-huh!"
Most of them are up to the neck of the team.
"Well……"
Team leader covered his throat with both hands.
He hooted a few times and looked at the crowd outside the camp in disbelief.
It was as if he could not believe until his death that his comrades, who had been seeing each other day and night for the past few days, would suddenly do such a cruel thing to him.
At the same time, "Kill!" The people outside the camp couldn't wait to reveal their weapons when the camp door was just halfway open.
At the same time, he pulled off the county soldier's clothes outside, revealing the shining armor underneath.
"Wei thief!"
The sentry who responded quickly had just screamed in surprise when several arrows had penetrated his body at the same time.
Someone in the Wei army smacked his lips, looked at the heavy crossbow in his hand, and clicked his tongue:
"This crossbow is really powerful!"
"I heard it came from the Western Bandits."
The person next to him put the crossbow upside down on the ground, stepped on the ring on the top of the crossbow with his feet, and used his arm strength and waist strength to re-string the crossbow, and said:
"Who would have thought that this Western thief would have such a sharp weapon."
After cocking the string, he raised the crossbow and looked into the Han army's camp with burning eyes, looking for valuable targets again.
The sharp bamboo whistle finally sounded in the Han army camp.
The whistle hidden in the dark sounded the alarm in time.
This alarm also exposed the secret whistle.
"There!"
The Han army's secret whistle ran away from the hiding place, and at the same time used all its strength to sound the second alarm.
"Peng!"
Dodged the first one, the second one...
However, due to the obstacles of the terrain and the interception of the Wei army, there was no way to escape the four and fifth armies.
The secret whistle was finally caught up by the powerful arrows behind him.
It is a pity that the rich alarm that the secret whistle exchanged for his life was in vain, and there was no way to reverse the war situation in Guancheng.
Many Han soldiers who woke up from their sleep in the middle of the night were still a little confused, and their drunkenness had not completely dissipated, making their reactions slower than usual.
"What happened?"
"Thief, die!"
The sword flashed, and the blood line soared into the air in the uncertain night, and then turned into blood mist.
Some people stood up as quickly as possible:
"Who are you!"
Someone laughed evilly: "Master Wang of Wei, come and destroy the thieves!"
"Wei thief?!"
"You are the thief!"
There was a panic and chaos in the camp, and screams of misery continued.
Occasionally, there were clashes of weapons and shouts somewhere, but they were quickly suppressed.
After more than an hour, the chaos in Guancheng gradually began to subside.
The surviving Han troops were all escorted to the school grounds. The Han army captain, who was in a state of embarrassment and disheveled in armor, looked at Guo Xun in disbelief when he saw Guo Xun standing next to the Wei army:
"Guo Shenjun?! Is it you? Why?"
When Guo Xun heard this, he couldn't help but have a sarcastic look on his face.
Before he could answer, the Han military captain who had been forced to bend down suddenly stood up straight, feeling extremely excited:
"Guo Shenjun, General Wei treats you well and trusts you so much, you..."
Before he finished speaking, the Wei army from behind pounced on him and held him down.
The Han military captain continued to struggle, using all his strength to raise his face from the ground and staring at Guo Xun:
"Why? Why are you doing this!"
Guo Xun chuckled, and then he couldn't help laughing anymore, until he couldn't stand still because of his laughter, and he bent down and squatted in front of the Han military captain.
He smiled and wiped away tears:
"What do you mean by treating me badly? I, Guo Xun, am a relative of the great Wei State. I am willing to devote myself to doing my best. Why do you think that is?"
The soldiers of the Han army who could hear this all raised their heads and looked over despite the scolding of the Wei army.
The Han military captain's eyes were already dull, and he inhaled a lot of dust regardless of his open mouth.
"How is it possible? How is it possible..."
This is the Dudu Mansion who was personally recommended by General Wei to join the army!
I heard that this person helped General Wei a lot when he first took office as the Governor...
Guo Xun seemed to enjoy it very much when he saw the stunned, confused eyes and expressions of these Han soldiers, whose faith collapsed in an instant.
However, he still had no intention of letting these surrendered pawns go:
"If you want to blame it, it's Wei Yan's stupidity. Otherwise, how could I have won such a dangerous situation for Wei? Haha..."
Looking at Guo Xun who was smiling almost crazy, some of the Han soldiers had angry and humiliating looks in their eyes.
"Rebel!"
Someone yelled and wanted to rush out.
"Chi!"
The smell of blood began to permeate the school grounds.
"Xiao Xian, it is beneath your status to bully these subordinates."
Seeing that Guo Xun had finally vented his emotions, Sima Yi came over and advised:
"Besides, they are just vulgar pawns. No matter how much you talk, it will be difficult for them to understand the pain in your heart."
When Guo Xun heard Sima Yi's words, he smiled to himself, wiped away his tears, nodded and said:
"Taifu is right. I lost my composure. There is no point in telling them this."
He took a long breath and said:
"It's just that over the years, I have endured humiliation, succumbed to thieves, and suffered from depression. Now I can't help myself when I make a meritorious service, which makes Taifu laugh."
Sima Yi shook his head and smiled:
"Humans are not grass and trees, how can we call them ruthless? The act of filial piety can be regarded as equal to that of Su Wu! After Su Wu returned home, he still wanted to redeem the son he had with a Xiongnu woman with gold and silk."
"Xiao Xian is just unable to control himself for a moment, how can he laugh at it?"
As he spoke, Sima Yi looked at the city wall behind him.
It was already approaching dawn, and the night was getting darker.
The majestic outline of Huguan gives people a sense of oppression.
"If there were no filial piety, how could I easily take control of this Shangdang portal without spending a single soldier?"
When Guo Xun heard Sima Yi's words, he felt that they were just ironing out.
However, I thought that after today, my name would be bound to Huguan and resound throughout Guanzhong and the Central Plains.
He couldn't help but feel a little angry:
"This is not all my fault, but also Wei Yan's help!"
"Hahaha!"
This was so well said that Sima Yi couldn't help laughing.
"Wei Yan is brave if he is brave, but he is just a warrior. How can he know how to be a commander?"
Speaking of this, Sima Yi couldn't help but sigh:
"When I look at Western thieves, they are just like those who got lucky and suddenly got rich. They have only superficial wealth but no real foundation."
"Wei Yan is just a play by Liu Bei. He was awarded the title of Marquis for his bravery and meritorious service."
"He thought he could guard the Central Plains after guarding Hanzhong for many years and resisting the might of Wei Tianwei. Little did he know that there is such a big difference between Hanzhong and the Central Plains?"
When Liu Bei and Emperor Wu fought for Hanzhong, the people of Hanzhong had long been moved away by Emperor Wu, leaving only a white space for Liu Bei.
Wei Yan only had to lead his troops to guard the various passes in Hanzhong.
But can it be the same in places like Hedong Shangdang?
In the land of three rivers, only the east of the river has experienced the least wars and the largest population and families over the years.
The land of Shangdang is closed on all sides, overlooking the Central Plains, and has not been cleaned by Feng Thief. The local wealthy families have intricate relationships.
Did Wei Yan really think that guarding these two places was the same as guarding Hanzhong?
Guo Xun nodded, convinced, and then laughed:
"Wei Yan is a martial artist with a noble temperament, does not know his own shortcomings, has no roots and no foundation, yet he wants to compete with Feng Thief. How arrogant is that?"
"I think of the Liu family, but they don't know how to appoint people according to their talents. They are short-sighted and want to force Wei Yan to check and balance the Feng thief. It's really ridiculous, ridiculous!"
"Xiao Xian's words are very true!"
Sima Yi greatly agreed, and then probably thought of the relationship between himself and Cao Shuang.
It is probably the emperor's instinct to let his ministers check and balance each other.
Sima Yi sighed slightly:
"According to this, the Western thief Liu family is just a suddenly rich family compared with the Wei Dynasty. How can it be compared with the aristocratic family?"
"Therefore, Yun Zuo must not last long. It's a pity that Zhuge Liang assisted him in front of him, and Feng Yongyizan came behind him."
"Both of them are prodigies of the world, and they came from the same school and have noble backgrounds. Alas, what a good life the Liu family has!"
Mentioning Feng Yong, Guo Xun groaned and had no answer.
What he told Wei Yan about his life experience was indeed true and there were no lies.
But some of the most important things remain unsaid.
That is, he and Mrs. Guo, Cao Rui's concubine, came from the Guo family in Xiping together.
The Guo family in Xiping has been a wealthy family in Xiping for generations, but over the years, their fate has been miserable.
During the early years of the Huang Dynasty (that is, when Cao Pi was in power), he participated in the rebellion against Cao Wei and was implicated, and the Guo family was admitted to the palace.
After Cao Rui ascended the throne, instead of making his concubine Yu as his queen, he made his concubine Mao as his queen.
The Yu family held a grudge, and in order to win Mao's favor, they specially selected the young and beautiful Guo family and sent them to Cao Rui.
As expected, Cao Rui gradually became less interested in Queen Mao and began to favor Guo.
As a result, the Guo family was revived.
Unexpectedly, not long after, the Western bandits captured Longyou and Xiping County in Longxi.
Cao Zhen planned to retake Longyou, and the Guo family responded by rebelling in Xiping. Unexpectedly, the battle of Xiaoguan made Feng a famous general.
After the Battle of Xiaoguan, the Guo family in Xiping naturally could not escape liquidation.
As for the third time, it was someone Feng who carried out a purge of rebellion within the Xinghan Society, and the direct lineage of the Guo family in Xiping participated again.
As the saying goes, it can never happen again. The direct line of the Guo family was finally wiped out by Zhao Sanqian.
As a survivor, Guo Xun already hated Ji Han to his core, so how could he possibly work for Ji Han?
So when he heard the surname Feng, his face naturally turned ugly.
Sima Yi knew what he was thinking, and seeing Guo Xun's expression, he wisely did not continue on this topic, but changed the topic:
"Xiao Xian, this time, can be regarded as a lesson to the Liu family, letting them know that this world belongs to our aristocratic family."
"Without the support of aristocratic families, the Liu family cannot thrive for a long time even if they rely on those warriors and untouchables."
"Given time, the Liu family will eventually realize that killing a large family like ours easily is going against nature. When the time comes, it will also give Xiaoxian a bad breath."
Guo Xun smiled bitterly:
"Taifu, how about this Liu family? This is what people like Taifu and the Dukes who are planning major events in the world should want to do."
"And I," Guo Xun pointed at himself, "just want to promote my Guo family."
"Don't worry." Sima Yi consoled him, "After today, Xiaoxian's fame will definitely shake Xuchang."
"At that time, Cao Shuang, no matter how much he is deceived by Taichung Three Dogs and others, should know that the Guo family is Wei Zhonglie."
"Ha!" Guo Xun sneered when he mentioned Xuchang, "Cao Shuang and others dare to put the Queen Mother under house arrest, but I no longer have any hope for them."
After Mrs. Guo gained favor, Cao Rui began to hate Queen Mao more and more.
Finally, when he was seriously ill, Cao Rui simply used Queen Mao to inquire about his condition as an excuse to have Queen Mao killed.
According to historical trends, Cao Rui should make Mrs. Guo his queen.
It's a pity that history was tampered with because of the intrusion of a certain country bumpkin.
Before Cao Rui died, in order to win over the Yu family in Hanoi, he wanted to put a thorn in the back of the Sima family, who was also a Hanoi family, and made the original concubine Yu Guifei as his queen.
This arrangement would have been excellent.
But if you are not afraid of opponents who are like gods, you are afraid of teammates who are like pigs.
General Cao Shuang, in order to monopolize power and prevent Yu from interfering with his own power in the name of the Queen Mother, forced Yu to move to another palace and put him under house arrest.
The Guo family was also implicated because of their relationship with the Yu family.
After all, Mrs. Yu was also the empress dowager, so Cao Shuang didn't dare do anything.
Guo is just a wife, how can she be taken seriously by Cao Shuang?
After all, Cao Shuang dared to sleep with the talents left by Cao Rui, and even selected several of them to live in his house.
Guo's fate was to be relegated to the cold palace and live in poverty.
With Cao Shuang's wise operation and Sima Taifu's wooing, the Yu family and the Guo family naturally fell into the arms of Luoyang without hesitation.
Guo Xun looked at Sima Yi and said seriously:
"If one day, the Grand Tutor can get rid of the villains in the court, rectify the origins, revitalize the court, and follow the wishes of Jiwei!"
When Sima Yi heard this, his eyes flashed, he laughed, and did not answer directly:
"The most important thing at the moment is to pacify the Shangdang, defend Heluo, and deter the Western thieves. The words of filial piety should be discussed in detail later when we have time."
Guo Xun was a little disappointed, but he also knew the Taifu's concerns, so he wisely stopped talking and suggested:
"In the land of Shangdang, Huguan and the eldest son are the most important. Now that Huguan is the master, we should take advantage of the thief before he can react and collect the eldest son as soon as possible."
Sima Yi nodded: "What Xiaoxian said is true. Come here!"
"Master?"
"Send an order to let the soldiers rest where they are until dawn. After breakfast, immediately go south along the Zhuozhang River to recover the eldest son!"
"Here!"
Guo Xun smiled and said:
"The eldest son is connected to Huguan by water, so it is easy to march. He will definitely fall into the hands of the Taifu! The eldest son is certain, and Wei Yan's way back is cut off, so he can only flee westward. By then, all Shangdang will be restored to the Wei Dynasty."
"Congratulations, Master!"
Sima Yi laughed loudly and took Guo Xun's hand: "This is Xiaoxian's contribution, not mine!"
