Chapter 143: Misfortune (5th Watch)

Yang Feng and Li Le rode their war horses and slowly walked at the front of the team, surrounded by their henchmen, and they did not lower their voices. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

I only heard Yang Feng say: "Brother Li, are we just escorting the emperor to Luoyang with the Northern Army?" ”

Li Le glanced around, pulled the horse's head in, stood side by side with Yang Feng, and whispered: "Of course I'm not happy, but what should we do now?" ”

Now the Northern Army is behind them, there are thousands of them, all of them are foot soldiers, and the 20,000 people of the Northern Army are all equipped with horses, if they have any abnormal movements, they will not be able to escape the pursuit of the Northern Army.

"Since Brother Li doesn't want to, then it's easy to do, in this way, when I rest tonight, Brother Li will come to my tent, how about we discuss it again?" Yang Feng got the answer he wanted, so he invited him to the tent to discuss it separately.

"It's a deal."

Along the way, tens of thousands of troops marched forward, and there were no blinding thieves to harass, but with the drag of Emperor Xian and hundreds of officials, the group walked for a long time, and the whole day had not yet completed the journey of two hundred miles.

At night, the camps on both sides were distinct, and Zhang Zai did not choose to live in a camp with Emperor Xian and others, but stationed alone a hundred meters away.

Yang Feng's big tent.

At this time, the two were gathering together to discuss some unspeakable matters.

"Brother Yang, how can we get rid of the Northern Army?" Li Le looked at Yang Feng, he was very interested in Yang Feng's proposal, but he didn't know how to deal with the Northern Army.

Yang Feng smiled, Li Le was a little frightened when he saw it, and only heard Yang Feng say: "I have an idea, but I don't know if Brother Li has the courage to participate?" ”

Li Le saw that what Yang Feng said was serious, hesitated for a long time, gritted his teeth, and asked, "Brother Yang, what is the plan, please tell me." ”

Yang Feng stared at Li Le tightly and said, "Brother Li has to think about it, if you listen to my plan, Brother Li must participate, otherwise you will not blame me for not being emotional." ”

When Li Le heard this, he felt bad in his heart, but now that the arrow is on the string, he really can't pull his face if he wants him to retreat.

Li Le said with a resolute face: "Brother Yang, what is the plan, just say it, the big deal is death, what's the big deal." ”

Yang Fengyi clapped his hands and said, "Brother Li, since Brother Li has made up his mind, then I won't sell Guanzi, so I just tell Brother Li directly." ”

"My clever plan is to ......" Yang Feng's face suddenly became ruthless, and he said with a hideous face: "Take the emperor hostage and leave directly." ”

When Li Le heard this, his scalp was numb, he didn't think about the idea of getting rid of the Northern Army, but he didn't expect that Yang Feng would actually want to hold Emperor Xian hostage, and he could make such a frustrating move.

Now that he heard Yang Feng's idea, he already understood that he had no way back, and if he regretted it, he was afraid that he would not be able to get out of Yang Feng's big tent today.

However, Li Le is also from Bai Bo, he is so brave and ruthless, his heart is horizontal, he gritted his teeth, and said: "Where is Brother Yang going to do it, please notify me in advance, I can prepare." ”

Yang Feng patted Li Le on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, it's still early, wait until you reach the edge of the Yellow River." ”

That night, the two had their own thoughts, discussed the specific plan to hold the emperor hostage, and then returned to their respective camps.

After two more days, Cao Cao, who was far away in Yanzhou at this time, finally received Zhang Zai's handwritten letter, and after reading what Zhang Zai wrote, he was shocked, and then summoned his subordinate Wenwu to the mansion and circulated the letter to everyone to browse.

After everyone saw it, Cao Cao asked, "What do you think we should do about this matter?" ”

Among Cao Cao's many strategists, Xun Yu had the highest status, so after Cao Cao finished speaking, he immediately suggested: "Yu thinks that the lord should immediately raise troops to meet the emperor." ”

Xun Yu was the most heartfelt person to the Han family under Cao Cao, and when he heard that Emperor Xian was coming, he couldn't wait to express his position.

The other strategists on the side, they thought more about how to deal with the upcoming emperor, if there were other people who wanted to cross the bar, such as Yuan Shao in the north, then how should they face the threat from the north.

Cao Cao's advisers were obviously much stronger than Yuan Shao, and none of them persuaded Cao to operate on the wall.

After the strategist finished speaking, Cao Cao did not make a decision, but instead stayed on a sickly young man.

The man was about thirty or so, his face was pale, as if he had not recovered from a serious illness, he picked up the letter written by Zhang Zai and read it a few times, before he said: "Lord, I think I should go, but I am afraid that this Zhang Zai is also ill-intentioned." ”

Hearing the man's words, Cao Cao was stunned for a moment and asked, "How can you see it?" ”

The man said, "What should I do if the lord welcomes the driver?" ”

"The Son of Heaven is not subordinate to the order." Cao Cao was silent for a moment, then looked up at the man and said, "What, what's wrong with this?" ”

Zhang Zai, as a general of the expedition to the north, and the state pastor, want to do this is definitely not possible, and the state is bitter cold, the emperor is definitely unwilling to go, Chang'an has Li Dao and others to make trouble, the Luoyang area has passed through Dong Zhuo cholera, and now it is also a ruin, then the only possibility is that he and Yuan Shao of Hebei have the ability to meet the emperor.

And Zhang Zai had an inseparable fight with Yuan Shao in Youzhou before, obviously he would not send Emperor Xian to Jizhou, and other regions were far away from Merging Prefecture, and the only possibility was to send it to his own territory.

Cao Cao pondered for a moment, greeted the emperor, Zhang Zai had a natural disadvantage, this was unavoidable, then he could only take the most advantageous measures.

Cao Cao's heart suddenly moved, and said: "Zhicai wants to say that Yuan Shao will take this opportunity to send troops to rob the emperor?" ”

The man is Xi Zhong, Xi Zhicai, he made up his mind that day, he was stabbed by Hua Tuo, and he died if he didn't succeed, and he almost died.

But fortunately, he has a big life, under Hua Tuo's careful care, he finally recovered, although his body is weaker than ordinary people, but there is no danger to his life, at this moment he has joined Cao Cao's account and believes that Cao Cao is the master.

Xi Zhicai nodded slowly and said: "That's right, I'm afraid that Zhang Zai deliberately used His Majesty to divert Yuan Shao's attention in Youzhou, and at the same time used the lord to contain Yuan Shao, killing two birds with one stone. ”

Cao Cao laughed, as if he didn't put Zhang Zai's strategy in his eyes, and said heroically: "So what, as long as he dares to send it, Cao will dare to drive it, as for Yuan Benchu, it's a big deal to have a fight, let him know that there is not only one Zhang Zai in the world, but also Cao Mengde who can defeat him." ”

Everyone in the room seemed to be infected by Cao Cao's atmosphere, and they all bowed and said: "I am willing to fight to the death with the general!" ”

So on the same day, Cao Cao ordered Xiahoudun to be the main general, Li Dian and Le Jin as deputy generals, and set off with 20,000 infantry from Chen Liu, while he led other generals and strategists, and then set off, all the way to the west, and personally went to meet the emperor.
