Weird Three Kingdoms

"There are Cao Jun spies! 』

Jia Qu stood on the city gate and slapped the battlements heavily with his palm.

Zhang Ji has not yet led the army to Huguan, and there are no generals in Huguan.

This is also the reason why Jia Qu started to fortify the wall and clear the field first.

Before Cao Jun's army arrives, reducing Cao Jun's supply sources can delay Cao Jun's action speed.

But what Jia Qu didn't expect was that Cao Jun's spies had already been infiltrated among the people outside Huguan!

"Emissary! Deng Li took a step forward, "The subordinates are willing to lead the soldiers and strangle the spies!" 』

Jia Qu didn't agree immediately, but looked at Deng Li, pondered for a moment, then nodded his head, but he didn't let Deng Li go out alone, but let the military marquis Zhang Ji and Deng Li go out together to defend the border. order, arresting spies, and at the same time dispatched archers to the battlements, just in case.Guannei also dispatched inspectors to take soldiers to the streets to control the streets.

Now that the war is imminent, it is necessary to guard against the outside of the customs and keep an eye on the inside of the customs.

Zhang Ji, courtesy name De Rong, was from Gaoling, Zuo Fengyi.

There is a nickname, known as Dao Bi Zhang.

As for why it is called "Knife and Pen" because it is a military profession, it is because earlier, it was not so easy to obtain scriptures and some knowledge in Guanzhong.

Zhang Ji's family can only be said to be pretty good, but it does not allow him to freely choose the direction of study.Because of the instability in Guanzhong and Longyou, more and more families in the northeast of Guanzhong hope that there will be a male in the family who can protect the family and drive out thieves, so most of them will give priority to martial arts.

Just like Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun and others.

Of course, Zhang neither has the martial arts of Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, etc., and his talent is average.

However, Zhang Ji is relatively lucky, he has enough meals to support him in learning martial arts, but in fact he prefers to study.He picked up knives, guns and sticks for his family, but he still longed for knives and pens.

There are only a few resources in the family, and if they spend more on martial arts, it is naturally impossible to have more money to buy books. Fortunately, Zhang has been able to be a man since he was a child. Of course, this is also the characteristic of most children from wealthy families. Either They don't know how to behave, are arrogant and domineering to the point of disgust, or they are more understanding of human experience than poor children, and they can use silver bullets to attack.

Since Zhang was smarter, he chose the second option.As long as he was free, he used the pretext of visiting children from other aristocratic families to sneak into the officialdom. Because he was young at that time and he was acquainted with each other in the county, no one went to expel him.So Zhang Ji took this opportunity to help some small officials cut bamboo slips, grind ink, and even prepared knives, pens and bamboo slips in his arms for the small officials in need, so as to learn some official prose and recite some common writings. the scriptures of...

His doggy behavior was naturally used to make fun of him.

However, it was precisely because of this that Zhang was approved by the county magistrate at that time, and he was going to be named Xiaolian, but it was a pity that the long-term Western Qiang Rebellion broke out, followed by civil strife in Heluo and Chang'an , Many government agencies were completely lost, and the county magistrate who was willing to appreciate also died in the war, and the road to promotion was once cut off.

Fortunately, when Feiqian arrived in Chang'an, the imperial examinations were re-opened. Unfortunately, after he cut off his studies, Zhang had already lost his best years, and he was not as good as the memories of his youth. He learned the martial arts and joined the army, went on campaigns, accumulated military merits, and became the Marquis of Huguan.

Letting Zhang Ji and Deng Li go out of the customs is undoubtedly Jia Qu's careful consideration...

Huguan is a whole area.

It is also the core of the current party.

Under Jia Qu's governance, Shangdang has been developing well for a period of time.

A good definition is that there is more than the lower and less than the upper.

This is related to the geographical location of Shangdang.

The topography of Shangdang can be roughly divided into two parts, the north and the south.

In the north is the larger basin area with Huguan and Huguan pass as the main body, which is the later Changye area, while in the south is the smaller basin with Changping and Gaoping, and it can even be said to be a hilly area. The above is around Jincheng in later generations.

Because of the Battle of Changping in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, the hilly area in the south, that is, the Jincheng area of ​​later generations, was very desolate. It was not until the Tang Dynasty that it gradually flourished, and the Changye area, that is, Huguan City, The area around Hehuguan Pass has become the absolute core of the current Shangdang.

The vast majority of the population of Shangdang County is concentrated here.

Population is actually a very important resource in troubled times. Only when there is a population can we recruit soldiers and produce food and other supplies. Therefore, areas with a relatively thin population like Shangdang have always relied on stabilizing their dwellings. Expand the barren land and focus on recuperation.

The area suitable for farming in the northern part of Shangdang is relatively small, and its basin is not very large. It is incomparable with the Taiyuan Basin and Linfen Basin. However, because it is located in the central hub, the northern part of Shangdang can go east through Fukouxing. The areas around Handan and Yecheng can also invade southern Hebei through the Huguan area. When the center of gravity of a regime is in southern Hebei, the threat from this direction is particularly deadly.

Therefore, Jia Qu's responsibility in Shangdang is not light. He not only has to defend Fukouxing, but also keeps an eye on the direction of Gaoping and Changping all the time, and at the same time defends at Huguan.

The reason why Zhang Ji is not in Huguan at the moment is because he took his troops to Fukouxing, one for inspection and defense, and the other for training.

The reason why Le Jin went straight to Huguan was that on the one hand, this mountain road was the shortest, and on the other hand, as long as Huguan was cut off, he could directly attack the Taiyuan Basin, and even threaten the rear of the Northern Territory Guard. , In addition, it can also get supplements directly from Jizhou, so as to enter the Linfen Basin.

Of course, on the road from Hanoi to the Linfen Basin in the East River, there is also a road along the Wangwu Mountain.Or simply take the longer route around Zhongtiao Mountain, but both of these roads have a very big problem, that is, the narrow and long passages may be blocked at both ends at any time, and the rats will be pissed off immediately.

This is why Le Jin is unwilling to go to Baixing, or Taihangxing, to conquer Gaoping and enter the northern part of Shangdang, because although the mountainous area in the southern part of Shangdang, Gaoping and Changping can walk along Danshui, there is no shortage of water sources. , but when Qin State was in Changping and confronted Zhao State back then, they tried all means and couldn’t break through head-on, so they could only take a slanted front. It can be seen that if you want to advance in this area on a large scale, it is undoubtedly a very difficult thing .

And if it is true that the large army of Cao Jun fell into the area of ​​Gaoping and Changping, it would be interrupted by an outflank of the hussars...

Therefore, although there is a risk of being pinched from top to bottom when entering from Huguan, at least one thing is certain, that is, the chrysanthemum is at least temporarily safe.

Le Jin broke through Taniguchi, only to allow Cao Jun to safely and boldly advance from Shanxing to Huguan.However, if you want to conquer Huguan and Huguan Pass, it is difficult to do it by surprise attack alone.

When facing Huguan, naturally if we can cooperate internally and externally...

Therefore, although Jia Qu was a little surprised by the appearance of Cao Jun's spies, it was not a complete surprise.

only……

Some doubts rose in Jia Qu's heart, he raised his head and looked into the distance.

From the Shangdang area to the south, you can enter the Hanoi area through Baixing and Taihangxing. At the beginning of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu occupied Hanoi and sent Kou Xun and Feng Yitong to guard Hanoi.Feng Yi attacked Tianjingguan in the north and pulled out Shangdang, so that the Hanoi area was stabilized.Le Jin's attack on Huguan is indeed good and understandable from a tactical point of view, but from a higher strategic level, why did he choose Huguan?There are more valuable targets than Huguan, and there are places that are more threatening than Huguan. Why didn't Cao Jun move, but came to chew the bone of Huguan first?
Isn't Le Jin afraid that the hussars from the southern part of the Shangdang will go south to Taihang Xing and directly disrupt the situation in Hanoi?
Or is Le attacking Huguan and seizing the army stronghold, just pretending to move, the purpose is to draw Shangdang and even Hedong's army out of Tianjing Pass and Zhi Pass, and lay an ambush in Hanoi?
Although Tianjing Pass and Zhi Pass are not as majestic as Huguan, it is not so easy to attack.Under such circumstances, it seems to be the best way to choose to lure the defenders of the pass to dispatch, and then go down in one fell swoop like the Tanikou Sanjunzhai.

But the question is, since Le Jin has already used such a tactic in the Tanikou military camp, is it possible that Jia Qu will be as stupid as Zhang Tian, ​​and will fall into the trap for the second time?

Or, does Le Jin really have any means to win Huguan?

such as……

Jia Qu turned his gaze to the city.

The people under the pass are still in chaos.

Jia Qu seemed to have thought of something and smiled slightly.

If the boxer sees Jia Qu facing such a situation, he can still laugh, and then he will become cold on the spot and use a set of punches, or a unique bar technique...

It's just that Jia Qu was not laughing at the people, but at Cao Jun.

Cao Jun's real goal was inadvertently exposed.

……(><)……

Under the pass, Zhang Ji stood behind the inner city of the pass, waiting for orders.While listening to the chaotic sounds outside the city gate, he glanced up and down at Deng Li covertly.

Those above work hard, and those below work hard.

What about the middle one?

It takes both heart and soul.

Zhang Ji is obviously the middle layer, so he has to work hard as well as hard.

So does it mean that the middle layer is particularly hard, because both aspects require "labor"?

No.

It's hard work, and you can choose to be lazy.It's just that the lower the class, the more concentrated the pressure of life will be, so it is impossible for those who are forced to choose to be lazy.

Zhang doesn't like to be lazy, it can be seen from the fact that he would rather go to the official office to mix scriptures and read prose with a knife and pen in his pocket than spend time on flying eagles and lackeys, so he understands what Jia Qu is asking him to do. Go out with Deng Li to quell the chaos.

Deng Li is from Shandong.

Not only in Shangdang Huguan, but also in many places, there are Shandong people.

So are the people.There are refugees from Shandong in recent years, and there are also refugees from Shandong in earlier years.

There must be spies hidden among these people, otherwise the General Hussars would not have deliberately set up a news department.

But isn't it because there are spies that all these Shandong people should be treated specially, or should they be controlled during wartime?
Obviously not.

If this is really done, it will inevitably cause chaos.

But that doesn't mean it's completely immune.

At the same time, this is also an opportunity for Shandong people, and they also need to show themselves in the process.Like Deng Li.

Deng Li can stay out of the customs, after all, he is a secretary, but in the current situation, he volunteered, most of them are to clear his suspicion.

What?Gather spies to win the pass?

Do you really think that the guards standing behind Jia Qu are closed, or are those archers, crossbow carts, and catapults all made of paper?
When he saw Deng Li and turned his gaze, Zhang neither evaded nor flinched, but nodded and said simply: "Out of the closed door, swords and guns have no eyes, Shu Zuo must be careful." 』

Deng Li was silent for a moment, then cupped his hands towards Zhang Ji.

Above the pass, the war drums roared, suppressing the din, and then, between the war drums, a warning was issued to let the people withdraw from the area of ​​a stone's throw.Immediately there were sporadic white-feathered arrows shot from bows and arrows, on the one hand to mark, and on the other hand to give a second warning.

The people who rushed to the door before the door was closed intentionally or unintentionally left the dangerous area scrambling.

Zhang Ji saw some guys pretending to be slow in the crack of the door, with sly eyes, so he sneered twice.

The soldiers on the city gate looked down and saw that there was no danger at the pass gate, so they gave the signal to open the gate.

Amid the creaking sound, the gate of the city was opened again, and even Zhang led the people to rush out, and Deng Li also rushed out of the pass gate.

During the period when Zhang was in Shangdang Huguan, his main duty was to calm down the bandits in the Taihang Mountains, and he also saw a lot of blood.

The Black Mountain bandits have fallen, and the leader gave the head. The 10,000+ Black Mountain bandits, or the Black Mountains, fell apart, and most of them were sent to the northern part of the Yin Mountain by Feiqian to open up wasteland, but it does not mean that everything in the Taihang Mountains immediately became peaceful.

Guys who are used to using violence to solve all problems are like addicted to smoking. They are rarely willing to pick up a hoe again, so even if Zhang Yan is dead, they will still form thieves and go down the mountain from time to time. Tickets, and then fled back to the mountains to eat and drink, and when there was no more money to spend, they continued to go down the mountain to become thieves and robbers, stealing and robbing.

Farming is too tiring and too slow, while looting is fast and refreshing.As long as it is fun, who will care whether tomorrow is life or death?

No matter what age it is, this kind of people is always indispensable, so the bandits in the Taihang Mountains have never stopped.

Eliminating these bandits is a lot of trouble, and the credit is very little, because these bandits can only be local affairs, not too much military merit, the surrounding mountains are high and dense, and it is really not easy to find a cat inside the mountain.Therefore, when Zhang knew that Huguan was about to face Cao Jun's attack, he was slightly surprised, but more excited.

As the military lord of Huguan, he is very aware of the defense situation of Huguan.

The fall of the army village did not scare Zhang Ji much, and he even felt that Cao Jun only had this ability left.If it is really tyrannical, why use such means?What's more, in hindsight, if Zhang Tian had defended the Yakou military stronghold at that time, Cao Jun might not have been able to take Tanikou so smoothly!
So, perhaps the spies of Cao Jun who are now mixed among the people in the village were originally for the purpose of taking the Taniguchi military stronghold for internal and external cooperation?
Because Le's attack on Pojunzhai went so smoothly, so these Cao Jun spies came to slow down Jia Qu's speed of fortifying the wall and clearing the field?

Zhang thought about it, and his movements were not slow. After rushing out of the city gate, he immediately shouted and rushed towards the most chaotic area with his soldiers.

Zhang Ji went to the mountains to suppress bandits on weekdays, and he was very familiar with the scattered mountain roads and topography of the Taihang Mountains.

So, here's the opportunity!

Even these spies of the Cao army in front of him, Zhang Ji felt that it was his opportunity and his military exploits!
The few people who were causing damage in the queue had actually been staring at the gate of Huguan City, seeing that the soldiers of Huguan pushed aside the turbulent flow and came towards them, they knew it was not good, so While yelling, he quietly hid the knife and went to the crowded place, trying to escape under the cover of the running crowd.

These Cao Jun spies came here secretly very early.

what?
Checkpoint Luca?

Even in later generations, some highways, bridge toll offices, or some scenic spot ticket offices, there are some small roads that can be bypassed, let alone in the present day of Dahan?Small troops can infiltrate, and the base board can't defend against it. All sentry posts are designed to defend against large troops.

The people are chaotic, bumping around like headless chickens,
In many cases, this kind of confusion is the embodiment of group unconsciousness.

For the individual, it is undoubtedly conscious.

Everyone will have their own ideas, and if one of them is asked to say how to arrange it and what order it should be, most of them will be able to speak in a clear and orderly manner.

It's just like a sentence often heard in later generations, "Don't you think, I want me to think." 』

Whether it feels good or bad, dangerous or safe, each individual has his own judgment, but once a loose collective like the current Huguan is formed, the individual consciousness will become the collective consciousness. unconscious.

Even if there are people in later generations who have gone through nine years of compulsory education, understand the meaning of words and symbols, and understand the importance of order, if they encounter something that is not properly controlled, they will immediately chaos if they say chaos, and immediately loot if they say looting. It was in the Han Dynasty, many common people were smeared with numerical symbols, and Shandong and Shangdang spoke with different accents...

Do you really think that the big man has a national Mandarin right now?

When a group of people who lack knowledge and are nervous gather together, these "unconscious factors" will be superimposed and magnified, while intelligence, personality, these conscious factors will be absorbed and disappeared.

Therefore, the brains of people in the group are numb, just like being hypnotized, they will enter a psychedelic state, they can only perform conditioned reflexes, and become slaves to unconscious factors.In this state, regardless of what was said before or what was emphasized, it will disappear instantly, leaving only the instinct to degenerate into disordered chaos.

And Cao Jun's spies are hiding in it and taking advantage of this!
When Zhang Ji rushed into the crowd with his soldiers, a new change appeared...
