The opening of the Three Kingdoms inherits the bravery of the overlord of Chu

Chapter 157 Cao Cao Meets Xun You Barefoot

Bingzhou and Jinyang.

Riding a fast horse, he went straight to the mansion of the General Hussars. The man on the horse got off the horse, and just took a step, he fell to the ground, his lips were chapped, and his throat made a slight sound.

"Meiwu urgent report..."

Seeing this, the guards at the door hurriedly carried him in.

"My lord, there is an urgent report from Meiwu. Jia Xu intends to dedicate Meiwu to Ma Teng in Xiliang. Li Ru sent people Xingye to deliver the news to General Zhao Yun of Xihe County."

The messenger shouted loudly after drinking a bowl of water.

Zhao Feng was shocked when he heard the words, if Ma Teng got involved in the situation in Chang'an, it would become more difficult to control at that time, Zhao Feng waved his hand to signal the messenger to take him down to rest, and then hurriedly summoned Yang Tinghe to discuss matters.

"Jiefu, I'm afraid Meiwu is about to cause trouble."

Zhao Feng let out a long sigh, and then said bluntly: "I want Zilong to lead the army to attack Meiwu. There is no need to defend to the death. We only need to transport the food and grass to prepare for military supplies."

Yang Tinghe turned pale and said: "My lord, General Zhao Yun's first task is to welcome His Majesty back. If the troops are divided, I'm afraid it will be difficult to support them."

"Things happen suddenly, you can't do it!"

Zhao Feng said in a deep voice: "Pengju's Yue family army is stationed in Dingxiang County. It is too late to dispatch at this time. We can only let Zilong go. As for meeting and rescuing His Majesty, I will lead Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry to go there in person."

"No!"

Yang Tinghe hurriedly stopped him and said: "The situation in Chang'an is in chaos. Not only Dong Jun is responsible for the disaster, but also Cao Cao and Lu Bu's soldiers are watching. My lord only takes Yanyun's eighteen cavalry to go. The subordinates are afraid that it will be difficult to escape."

"Jiefu, Meiwu's food and grass pile up like a mountain is enough for a [-]-strong army to spend for several years. How can it be used in vain? Meiwu must be taken down."

Zhao Feng said solemnly.

"This……"

Yang Tinghe fell into a dilemma, pondered for a moment, and said, "If my lord wants to go to Chang'an in person, I can order Zhang Yang to set up the Shangdang army and march towards Luoyang, trapping Lu Bu and Cao Cao."

"it is good!"

Zhao Feng said: "After I leave, Jiefu will be in charge of the overall situation, remember to beware of this thief, Yuan Shao from Jizhou, and don't let him do anything wrong."

"promise!"

Yang Tinghe handed over his command and hurried down to send someone to pass orders to Zhang Yang to prepare for a new round of deployment.

……

Changan.

Xu Rong led his soldiers and horses into the palace, searched the entire palace, but found no trace of Liu Xie, and suddenly became uneasy.

If Liu Xie were allowed to run away, at most they would have seized a city, and they would not be able to get a word of fame and fortune.

"Go and search, go and investigate, we must recover the emperor!"

Xu Rong shouted in a long voice.

Tens of thousands of horses began to disperse and turned Chang'an City upside down, but there were still no traces, Xu Rong was so angry that he couldn't do anything.

"Call..."

When it was almost dawn, Zhang Ji galloped back on his horse and reported to Xu Rong: "General, it has been found out that the palace guards escaped from the north gate with the emperor, the royal clan and others."

"damn it!"

Xu Rong cursed, and then ordered: "You quickly lead three thousand flying bears to chase the emperor back. I will be in Chang'an, and let General Guo Si go to welcome General Zuo to preside over the overall situation."

"Order!"

Zhang Ji rode away in a hurry again, and went after Liu Xie with three thousand elite soldiers.

……

Hangu Pass.

Cao Cao failed to seize the opportunity and entered Chang'an City. He missed the first great opportunity to coerce the emperor to command the princes. He was unwilling to withdraw his troops back to Yanzhou, but learned that Zhao Feng led his army to leave Chang'an, so he stayed here all the time. , because his counselor Xun Yu had already concluded that there would be chaos in Chang'an.

It was night, when Cao Cao was fast asleep, when his confidant General Cao Hong came in and said, "My lord, Mr. Xun Yu asked to see him, and brought a man who claimed to be your old acquaintance, Xun You."

"It's Gongda who is here!"

Cao Cao was so overjoyed that he didn't even bother to put on his shoes, and came outside the tent in thin clothes.

When Cao Cao was an official in Luoyang, he had an old relationship with Xun You, and admired his talent and knowledge. After arriving in Yanzhou, Cao Cao also wanted to recruit him many times, but he had no chance. Now that he is sent to him, he must not let him gone.

"But Gongda is here!"

Before the people arrived, the voice had already arrived. After Cao Cao left the camp, he took Xun You's hand and said very kindly: "Gongda has worked hard all the way, come in quickly."

Without waiting for Xun You's answer, Cao Hong followed with a pair of shoes and shouted, "My lord, it's cold and your feet are freezing, put them on quickly."

Only then did Xun Yu and Xun You realize that Cao Cao greeted them with bare feet, and their hearts were moved. Xun You hurriedly took the shoes, put them in front of Cao Cao's feet, and shouted, "Mr. Cao, don't freeze yourself."

"No problem, no problem!"

Satisfied, Cao Cao stretched his feet in, put them on indiscriminately, then pulled Xun You with one hand and Xun Yu with the other, and walked into the tent.

"Gongda came to visit late at night, but is there something urgent?"

Cao Cao thought about it and asked.

Xun You quickly replied: "Mr. Cao, the remnants of Dong's army are besieging Chang'an. I am afraid that it will be dangerous. I hope that Mr. Cao will send troops early to rescue your majesty."

"Rebellious ministers and thieves are punishable by everyone. My Cao Cao is deeply favored by the emperor. How can I just sit idly by and go in person to eradicate the rebellious thieves."

Cao Cao shouted loudly, and then told Cao Hong, "Quickly go and summon the lieutenant generals to discuss matters in the camp."

"promise!"

Cao Hong responded loudly, he knew that the opportunity for them to make contributions had come again, and this time they would definitely win glory for their lord.

Not long after, two or thirty people gathered in the camp, and Cao Cao shouted in a long voice: "Your Majesty is in danger, and we, as subjects, shall do our best to rescue you. All the troops obey the order and only take rations. Follow me to Chang'an." , eradicate the thieves.”

"As ordered!"

All the generals agreed in unison.

Xun Yu asked from the side: "You can leave an army to garrison Hangu Pass, just in case of accidents!"

Cao Cao was unmoved, and said bluntly: "The salary of eating the king, how can you neglect when you are loyal to the king, the whole army will not stay, and march to Chang'an, wipe out the rebels, and restore the Han Dynasty."

As soon as Cao Cao's words came out, the enthusiasm of the generals in the camp was instantly ignited, and all of them were motivated like chicken blood.

Cao Cao immediately abandoned Hangu Pass and led his cavalry to Chang'an City first. When he was still ten miles away from Chang'an, he met an official who had fled from Chang'an. He stopped him and asked, "Where is Your Majesty?"

The official quickly replied: "Chang'an has fallen into the hands of Dong Jun, and His Majesty has fled towards Xihe County."

"what……"

Cao Cao's face darkened, and the moment changed drastically. If the emperor really went to Bingzhou, his plan of holding the emperor to make the princes general would be wiped out.

"Come on, hurry back and report to General Xia Houyuan, let him lead the troops directly to the north, without going to Chang'an, save His Majesty first."

Then Cao Cao led Cao Hong, Cao Ren, two generals, and two thousand Qingqi, rode their horses northward, and chased them straight away.

With Dianwei as the axis, there are now three groups of people rushing to rush, and everyone has a common goal, that is Liu Xie, the emperor of Han.
