Jiguan, which guards the key throat roads in Bingzhou and Luoyang, has witnessed too many rises and falls, just like an old man who has experienced a long time, always silently staring at the Taihang Mountains and Wangwu Mountains that stretch across the distance. If Jiguan could speak, this stubborn old man would definitely tell people about the situation when a young man and a hundred servants passed by in the spring of Guanghe in the spring of the sixth year.

When the frivolous young man passed through Huguan, he wrote an impromptu poem: "He led Huang Qing Cang to be crazy, and he was sleeping in the new rain and clear spring. If a young man is not waiting, his spirit will come out of Jiguan!"

Who would have thought that Zhao Xing, who was just a young man's play, was no longer crazy now, but he still led Huang Qingcang, stirring up the surging of the Han Dynasty, and smiling vigorously at the encirclement of the three sides of the court. Now, although Lu Zhi and the middle army have approached Jiguan, on the rebuilt Jiguan, Zhao Xing's four arrogant poems were specially engraved on the majestic wall of the pass, and still showed off the charm of the owner of the poem to the people inside and outside the pass.

Lu Zhi, who came to observe the situation on the battlefield in person, stared at the insurmountable pass in the distance under the escort of Zhang Fei and Gao Lan, and chanted Zhao Xing's poem in his mouth, and was a little lost for a moment.

"Yide (Note 1), what do you think of Zhao Xing?" Lu Zhi asked Zhang Fei, who was silent beside him.

"The long-term vision, broad mind, and both civil and military are better than Huo Piaoyao back then!" Zhang Fei expressed his views on Zhao Xing concisely.

"Is such a great talent but cannot be used by the court? Is it true?" Lu Zhi sighed, not knowing whether he was asking himself or everyone else.

"Meng De, you had dealt with Zhao Xing in Luoyang City in the past. What do you think of this person?" Lu Zhi asked Cao Cao behind him again.

"When Zhao Guochang first started, he thought that this person was a playboy, a young and crazy person, but now he seems to be a big mistake." Cao Cao showed his recognition of Zhao Xing without any concealment.

"Highway and Zhao Xing have deep grudges, but what should I say?" Lu Zhi asked Yuan Shu again.

"If this thief is not eliminated, the country will have no peace!" Yuan Shu said with a righteous face.

"What do you think about this?" Lu Zhi knew that when Yuan Shu spoke, he would definitely not say anything good to Zhao Xing, so after he vented his dissatisfaction, he asked Sun Jian with a smile.

"This barrier is the only thing I have seen in my life. If there is no complete solution, it is difficult to break it like climbing to the sky!" Sun Jian, who was already thirty-seven years old, replied in a deep voice.

"Why should the Wentai be ambitious and destroy its own prestige? With our 200,000 coalition forces, no matter how steep Jiguan is, how long can it be blocked?" Yuan Shu refuted Sun Jian with some displeasure.

"Since Yuanzhou Mu is so confident, why not show you the power of Danyang Xiongshang to you tomorrow!" A tall and handsome young man behind Sun Jian suddenly spoke up and ridiculed Yuan Shu.

"Who are you? Is there any difference between you here?" Yuan Shu was furious, pulled out the sword from his waist, pointed at the young general who was talking behind Sun Jian and shouted angrily.

"I am Zhou Yu, a side general under General Sun. But I told the truth that Yuanzhou Mu was so angry. I apologized to you here!" Zhou Yu bowed to Yuan Shu without changing his face, and didn't take him seriously at all.

Yuan Shu was about to have anger, but was about to have an attack, but Sun Jian choked back: "I heard that the Eastern Alliance was the leader of the Eastern Road coalition. How could Brother Gaolu fall behind?"

Sun Jian’s words were so cruel! How could Yuan Shu feel when he asked this in front of everyone, Yuan Shu, who had always wanted to fight openly and secretly with his brother Yuan Shao? Sure enough, Yuan Shu was excited and said angrily: “I will lead my army to attack Jiguan tomorrow so that you will not be squeezed by you!”

After seeing Yuan Shu and Sun Jian’s group of people, the cunning Lu Zhi pretended not to see anything, and was talking about something else to Zhang Fei and Gao Lan. When he saw Yuan Shu enter the hub, he immediately said: "The road can focus on the overall situation. We will come to cheer for the heroic soldiers in Yangzhou tomorrow!"

After Lu Zhi said this, it was equivalent to placing the task to Yuan Shu. Even if Yuan Shu felt a hundred unhappy, he was now in a difficult situation, so he had to bite the bullet and be the pioneer and take the lead.

After deciding to attack Jiguan tomorrow, everyone returned to their camp separately.

In Cao Cao's camp, Heizi's face was heavy at this moment, and he was talking about the topics of Bingzhou and Zhao Xing with a group of civil and military generals such as Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Yu Jin, Li Dian, Xun You, Cheng Yu, Xi Zhicai, Liu Ye and other civil and military generals.

"When I look at Jiguan today, my heart is like a big stone. This battle with Bingzhou is probably not as simple as I thought at the beginning!" Cao Cao said.

"The lord said this very well. I heard that the commander guarding Ji Pass was Xu Huang, the second brother of Zhao Xing, who was a righteous brother of Xu Huang. This man was calm and decisive. The Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his expression remained unchanged. The Crouching Tiger Army under his command was the most elite infantry in Zhao Xing's hands. He has been following Zhao Xing for ten years. Not only is he extremely loyal, but he is also fearless of death. He is definitely not inferior to the Taishan soldiers trained by Wen Ze with one force!" Staffman Xun You said with certainty.

"Even if the soldiers in Bingzhou have high combat power, they have limited troops after all. How can they withstand the siege of our 200,000 troops?" Xiahou Dun asked Xun You.

"Although our coalition forces have 200,000, but their plans are not the same. Moreover, the maximum number of troops that could be invested before Jiguan is only 10,000, and the 200,000 troops have no advantage in this terrain. The only way is to fight a war of attrition and fill up Jiguan with human lives, which is a result that all forces do not want to see..." Staff Cheng Yu pointed out the problem incisively.

"No matter what, tomorrow we will follow the lord to observe the situation where Yuan Shu attacked Jiguan, and then make plans." said the strategist Xi Zhicai.

"It is precisely this reason. This time, Zhou Yu, a young general under Sun Wentai, was really awesome! I look at Zhou Yu, I will be an extraordinary person in the future!" Cao Heizi couldn't help laughing and praised Zhou Yu when he thought that Yuan Shu was going to take the lead.

In Sun Jian's camp, everyone was also discussing what happened today.

"Gongjin was so brave at that time that he actually ridiculed Yuan Gonglu in person." Sun Jian said to everyone with a smile.

"Hmph, Yuan Gaolu was extremely excited when he mentioned Zhao Xing. His father just told the truth and refused to follow him. How could such a person succeed!" The eighteen-year-old Sun Ce said with some anger.

"It's good if Bo Fu knows it. Don't be petty. When you learn from Zhao Guochang, you still calmly attack Bingzhou by 500,000 coalition forces. Until now, there is no scattered people in Bingzhou. Only in this way can you take on a great responsibility!"

Liu Yan and Liu Biao, who served as "freedom defenders", did not lead the team to Hanoi in person. Liu Yan appointed his generals Dong Fu and Pang Xi to report to Lu Zhi with 20,000 people, while Liu Biao appointed his generals Li Yan and Huang Zhong with 20,000 people to join the army in the middle.

As the head coach of the Jingzhou Corps, Li Yan respects veteran Huang Zhong very much and discusses with him whenever he encounters things. After reading Jiguan today, he asked Huang Zhong: "Brother Hansheng, when will it be broken after you are surrounded by Jiguan Jiguan?"

Huang Zhong, who was in his forties, thought for a moment and replied in a deep voice: "If the command is not properly, it may not be broken; if the command is properly, it will be difficult to break without losing the lives of tens of thousands of people."

"What Han Sheng wants is so similar to me. I'll watch Yuan Shu attack Jiguan tomorrow, and then we will make trouble..." Li Yan said with some concern.

What Dong Fu and Pang Xi of the Yuzhou Corps said in private were basically similar to the other groups of forces. When everyone was not sure about the actual combat power of the Zhenbei Army, they wanted to wait and see before talking.

Note 1: Zhang Fei's name is Yide, as evidenced by history, Luo Guanzhong wanted to change it to Yide, and also portray Zhang Fei as a rude person who only knows how to fight and kill. In fact, this is not the case at all. I don't know if Lao Luo and Zhang Fei have a grudge, but he portrayed a famous person who is both civil and military, as a rough person who is as rude as Dian Wei and Wen Chou.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was shown that Zhang Fei, among the statues of heroes in the Three Kingdoms period, did not even have a beard, and his face was like a full moon, with a gentle expression, not as everyone imagined. He was a burly black man with a swallow chin and tiger beard, a leopard head and a ring-eyed eyes!

Zhang Fei was also a celebrity in Hebei in history. He was probably a beautiful man with a beautiful face and a spirit, and had a high cultural literacy (historical records have recorded that Zhang Fei's hobby is practicing calligraphy, drawing fine brushwork and ladies, and was very successful.). Zhang Fei had two daughters, both of whom were the queens of Shu Han, and his appearance must be quite good.
