Chapter 318: Pressing Forward
"Your Majesty, now that the white horse has been decided, should we withdraw our troops and return to Guandu?"
In the big tent, Hua Xiong looked at Liu Wei and asked.
Liu Wei nodded, although he has won the White Horse now, the troops are still insufficient after all, if he wants to go south directly from the White Horse to Chenliu and Xuchang, it will definitely not be enough.
"The two of you will leave one of you to guard the white horse, and the rest will return to the Guandu camp with me."
Liu Wei pondered for a while, looked at Gan Ning and Hua Xiong and said.
Now there are not many generals who can be called by his subordinates, so it is natural that the two of them can't guard the white horse now.
"Your Majesty, let the last general guard the white horse." Hua Xiong glanced at Liu Wei and asked for his life.
Liu Wei didn't hesitate too much about this, and immediately agreed, "Since you took the initiative to ask for your life, then I will order you to lead 10,000 horses to guard the White Horse Pass." ”
"Xingba, you can go back to the camp with me, now Cao Cao's main force is still in Guandu, and sooner or later there will be a big battle."
Liu Wei looked at Gan Ning and said, there is also an advantage for Gan Ning to return to Guandu, after all, Gan Ning is good at water, and when crossing the Yellow River, if there is a need, no one is more suitable than Gan Ning.
"Your Majesty, the military advisor sent someone to deliver a letter."
Just after the deliberations were over, Liu Weidu still stepped out of the camp, and some soldiers came to report.
"Come in." Xi Zhicai sent someone to deliver a letter, there must be something.
Liu Wei couldn't help but sigh, the emperor of troubled times is not easy to do.
No wonder it is said that it is easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to defend the country, and it is not easy to build the country, and you can enjoy it, and indeed many people will not be able to hold it.
"I've seen Your Majesty." After the man entered the big tent, he bowed and handed the letter directly to Liu Wei.
"Zhicai already knows that we have taken the white horse, and now Zilong has also led the troops to Yanjin."
Without waiting for everyone to ask, Liu Wei took the initiative to tell everyone after reading the letter.
This is not something that needs to be concealed, so Liu Wei naturally will not be hypocritical or deliberately conceal it.
"General Zilong has also left the big tent, isn't there only one military division left in Guandu?" Gan Ning frowned and said after listening to Liu Wei's words.
Liu Wei nodded, "Exactly, so we have to leave for Guandu immediately." ”
This is also exactly what Liu Wei is worried about, although it is said that with the talent of drama, it will not be wiped out by tens of thousands of troops.
But this will still become a disadvantage after all, so naturally the sooner you arrive, the better.
The next day, Liu Wei led 5,000 men and horses, as well as Gan Ning and Dian Weiyang in the direction of Guandu.
"Xingba, if Cao Jun learns that only Zhicai is in charge of the camp, he will inevitably prevent us from returning to the army, so you and my soldiers will go in two ways."
After leaving the camp, Liu Wei looked at Gan Ning and said, it's not that he is too careful, but that the troubled times are like this, and if you are not careful, you will not survive.
"Your Majesty's words are in line with the meaning of the last general, if Your Majesty doesn't say anything, Xingba will have to speak."
After listening to Liu Wei's proposal, Gan Ning nodded with a smile and said.
In the end, Liu Wei discussed with Gan Ning, and he and Dian Wei led 2,000 men and horses back to Guandu from the direction of Liyang.
Gan Ning led 3,000 men and horses from the direction of Nanhan to return to Guandu.
As for who can reach Guandu smoothly first, it will depend on luck.
When Liu Wei led the men and horses to hurriedly go in the direction of Guandu, Ruyang Chen Palace sent Pang Tong away.
Looking at the back of Pang Tong leaving, Chen Gong subconsciously stroked his beard, thoughtful.
I have to say that this Pang Tong is really bold and big-hearted, and he actually wants to take down Cao Cao and Liu Wei at the same time.
Although his focus was on Cao Cao, Pang Tong did not put much effort into Liu Wei.
It can be seen from the two words Han Sui written by Pang Tong yesterday.
If it is really as Pang Tong said, if Xiliang Han Sui rebels and raises troops, it will naturally be a big blow to Liu Wei.
Moreover, now in the north, except for Zhang Yan and Zhang Baiqi, who have been hiding in the mountains and are about to disappear, only Han Sui is the one who is likely to rebel.
I have to say that at this point, this Pang Tong is very accurate.
"Gongtai, do you think Pang Shiyuan's plan is feasible?"
Lu Bu also looked at Chen Gong at this time and said, obviously Lu Bu still had some doubts about Pang Tong's plan.
In his opinion, if this thing was really so easy to do, Liu Wei would not be able to occupy the land of Sizhou so quickly.
"Whether it is feasible or not depends on this Pang Shiyuan's ability, but whether this matter succeeds or fails, it will be beneficial and harmless to us and others, so why not enjoy it?"
Chen Gong smiled very open-mindedly and said, so he didn't want to think too much about this matter.
After hearing Chen Gong's words, Lu Bu also smiled, "What the public platform said is that this matter will give them a headache." ”
It was already early winter, and the cold wind was gusting, but at this time, a team of men and horses was just in the mountains and forests, lighting a small bonfire.
This is naturally Liu Wei and his party, and he didn't expect that Cao Jun's blocking would be so fast.
However, this also confirms that Cao Jun does know the situation on the side of the camp, so he is only now preventing himself from returning to the army.
"Your Majesty, just let me lead the army, kill them cleanly, and take Your Majesty to rush out."
The flames of the bonfire were reflected on Dian Wei's face, and he spoke very unpleasantly.
"It's easy to kill a team of centaurs, but what about the other centaurs behind here, now we don't know how many men and horses Cao Jun has dispatched, so we can't be careless."
After listening to Dian Wei's words, Liu Wei explained that if he was just reckless, then he would naturally not be afraid of the more than 2,000 horses he found now.
After listening to Liu Wei's words, Dian Wei didn't mention this matter.
Liu Wei is not too worried about himself, but he doesn't know what is going on with Gan Ning now, but I hope he can return to the camp smoothly.
Because Gan Ning returned to the camp, it means that he has nothing to do, and Gan Ning's return to the camp will also help him.
At least when the time comes, he can tell Xi Zhicai the news accurately.
"Your Majesty, you can rest first, and I will take someone to guard it." Seeing that the night was getting deeper, Dian Wei looked at Liu Wei and said.
"Well, take turns keeping vigils."
Liu Wei was not hypocritical, nodded and spoke.
If everyone doesn't rest, they won't have the physical strength to fight against this Cao army anymore.
"General, the little ones dare to conclude that they must have entered this mountain."
At the foot of the mountain, a soldier pointed to the mountains and forests in front of him, and said to Cao Hong beside him very confidently.
"I naturally know this, but now we don't have an advantage in numbers."
Cao Hong glanced at the soldier and said, if it weren't for this, he would have killed it a long time ago, and he still needs to talk here.
"You immediately go and inform General Xiahoudun, and say that I have found traces of Emperor Han."
Cao Hong then thought about it and said.
If it was just with his own ability, it would be impossible to stop Dian Wei.
"Yes." The soldier nodded and left, but when he turned around, Cao Hong stopped him again.
"At the same time, you will also send this news back to Guandu and tell the lord."
After Cao Hong finished speaking, he gave up completely.
After everything was ordered, Cao Hong breathed a sigh of relief.
thought that if he could really stop Liu Wei and catch him, it would definitely be a great achievement.
Thinking of this, Cao Hong couldn't help but feel a little excited.
The next day, after Liu Wei and the others rested, they began to discuss the breakthrough again.
After a night's rest, since there was no movement last night, it means that Cao Jun is already planning.
Let Cao Hong call everyone in front of him, it is naturally much better than accidentally bumping into it, but it will be much better.
In this way, the state of darkness and self-light is reversed.
"Your Majesty, you guessed it right, just now the spies reported that the number of people in the Cao army camp has more than doubled, and there are more than 5,000 people."
About a quarter of an hour later, Dian Wei hurriedly stepped forward to look at Liu Wei and smiled.
It was as if he was even happier than he had guessed correctly.
"Which general of the Cao army is clear?" Liu Wei was not surprised, but asked again.
"I can't know this for a while, but there is a centaur with a black character on a white background and a summer character on the banner."
Liu Wei nodded, and then it was either Xiahou Yuan or Xiahou Yuan, and the two of them were not bad.
"Your Majesty, Cao Jun has entered the mountain and threatened to let Your Majesty go out to fight." At this moment, Zhang Jinhe stepped forward to look at Liu Wei and speak.
After hearing this, Liu Wei frowned and said, "Go and take a look." ”
