Who? ”

"Lord, it's me!"

Cao Cao was watching the map under the lamp, suddenly the door curtain was lifted, and a person came in from outside, the lights were fluttering, he didn't tell who the person was for a while, and when he heard Xiahou Yuan's familiar voice, he confirmed that it was him, Cao Cao quietly let go of the hand holding the knife:

"It's a wonderful talent, what's the matter?"

"Lord, it's late at night, let's rest early!"

Xiahou Yuan straightened up and said softly.

"Not busy! Come! Miaocai and I will take a look at ......"

Cao Cao smiled and beckoned Xiang Hou Yuan to come over. This march to Sili to welcome the Son of Heaven to Yuzhou was strongly advocated by Cao Cao, and he didn't carefully calculate and understand how he could sleep.

; _Xu Erzhou fell into the hands of Zhang Han, although he had no intention of going south for the time being, but he stationed heavy troops in Shanyang, an important town in Huaidong, :

However, the situation is pressing, and Yuan Shao has no choice. Zhang Han is located in the land of six states, with a million armor, and ten years of valley branches. If Yuan Shao doesn't rise up, I'm afraid he will die soon. Everyone knows that Zhang Han's next step will definitely be to take Yuzhou. Yuan Shao's only two choices: to welcome the Son of Heaven in the north; Go south to Jiangdong and occupy the ground. Therefore, as soon as Cao Cao proposed to "order the princes of the Son of Heaven", almost no one objected to the ministers. It passed smoothly - Chun Yuqiong muttered two sentences, and when he saw that no one echoed him, he forgot it.

However, who to send to welcome the Son of Heaven is a question. The intelligence of the DPRK and China is not clear, and it lags behind a lot, and Lu Butun's troops in Kunyang are not vegetarians. This is subordinate to the superior. If one is not good, it will be in a dilemma. So, as the proposer, Cao Cao was duty-bound and agreed. Success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He. It's done. Cao Cao is a great achievement, but if he fails, the responsibility will naturally be all his.

Cao Cao didn't talk about it, and Xiahou Yuan also knew it, and he was somewhat worthless in his heart, but it was inconvenient to say something. Knowing this, Cao Cao might as well follow Zhang Han at the beginning, with Cao Cao's ability and Zhang Hanzhi's attention, today he must be in charge alone, and the marquis is just around the corner. Why bother to camp as you do now......

Come to the front. Xiahou Yuan cleaned up the scattered thoughts in his heart and checked the map with Cao Cao. Take the second level lightly. The 5,000 soldiers and horses are basically not lost, and they are now camped at Yique Pass. to the south, it is only three hundred miles away from Nanyang Yuan Shu's sphere of influence; To the north is Yangkong City, which is more than 200 miles away from Mengjin in the north of Yang, and Zhang Han's big river water division has stayed in Mengjin for more than a month; There are several counties in Zhongmu in the north, which is considered to be the territory of Zhangji, but the soldiers and horses are all controlled by local officials, and the number is very small. The west is the foundation of Zhang Ji, but Zhang Ji led his troops west to adjust the dispute between Li and Guo. The remaining men and horses have more than enough defense and insufficient offense.

All in all. Cao Jun's current location is quite safe, and there is not much threat around.

Xiahou Yuan made a few gestures in the void, and thought about it in his heart for a while:

"My lord, Your Majesty's situation is unknown, and last month was far away in Hongnong, and it will take at least five days to march at the speed of our army......"

The march along the gallop road, although it was a little detoured, was faster and more convenient to march on the gallop road. All things considered, it is better to march along the gallop road. Yang is in the middle of the world, and there are galloping roads connected to various regions. Therefore, Cao's march was to go around from Yang, and then turn to Hongnong, a journey of about 500 miles.

Most of the 5,000 Cao troops were infantry, and the cavalry was only 400. Cavalry can only be used as scouts, and the speed of marching is based on the speed of the infantry. With the speed at which Cao's army marched 100 miles a day, if nothing else, it would take five days.

It's not that Cao Cao doesn't know the importance of speed, but he can't do it. Of these 400 cavalry, Yuan Shao was already reluctantly embarrassed. Horses, like food, are strategic commodities at this time. Since Zhang Han entrenched in the secluded annexation, it has been rare to see the northern horse in the south of the Central Plains. The few northern horses that were smuggled in the past were also too expensive and too scarce to form cavalry. Yuan Shao dug three feet into the ground, concentrated all the war horses except for the main general, and only gathered more than 1,000 horses. Cao Cao selected the best of the best, and then he had these 400 cavalry. As for the five thousand men and horses being cavalry, Yuan Cao and the others only thought about it in their dreams. If he knew about the four cavalry armies formed by Zhang Han, Cao Cao would not be able to salivate.

The soldiers are fast and fast, and this principle is not easy through the ages. ** of guerrilla warfare, Hitler's blitzkrieg, the essence of all lies in speed. In later generations, both the United States and China attached great importance to the highly mobile and rapid reaction forces. One hit misses and flies thousands of miles, which in itself is a great advantage.

Cao Cao attaches great importance to speed, but on the wide galloping road, Cao Jun also travels hundreds of miles a day. Xiahou Yuan, who was known for his fast march, was only "five hundred in three days, one thousand in six days". Note that this is still a light and rapid march. Even like Zhang Han, the normal march of the standing army was only 120 miles a day. Switching to cavalry, it is usually possible to multiply infantry speed by three. A normal march of more than 300 miles a day is the most common thing. Think about it, if Cao's army is all cavalry, he can run back and forth in six or seven days, and even if all parties want to attack him, they may not have time to seize the opportunity. It can be seen from this that as a strategic mobile force with the fastest marching speed, cavalry is highly respected in the era of cold weapons, and there is a reason for it.

"Well, Miaocai means ......"

Cao Cao was thoughtful. Five days is probably not enough, and in some places a cordon march must be taken. In this case, it will take seven or eight days to do it. When the scout cavalry arrives at Hongnong and returns, it will take three days. The longer it drags on, the greater the danger. After reacting, Yuan Shu, Lu Bu, Zhang Han and others will not let go of this good opportunity to hit their opponents.

Staring at Meng Jin, Cao Cao was a little apprehensive in his heart, even if the Great River Water Division transported materials, he would stay for too long, could it be that Zhang Han also wanted to hold the Son of Heaven hostage......

"Lord, I would like to lead a team of men and horses to ......"

"Oh......"

Cao Cao didn't speak, Xiahou Yuan was going to divide the troops. Dividing troops has the advantage of dividing troops, but it is also easy to leave opportunities to break through for others.

Is! Cao Cao frowned, the military advisor Zhou Qiao was left in Yangzhou by Yuan Shao, and he didn't even have anyone to discuss......

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"It's still coming

Zhang Han let out an incomprehensible exclamation.

"It's coming, it's coming! Your Majesty is blessed with great fortune, and Li Guo and other thieves can't catch up, so I should wait to meet the driver as soon as possible......"

Guo Jia marked Cao Jun's information on the sand table, compared it back and forth a few times, and felt that it was not a big problem. Emperor Xian had already fled to Hedong, and no matter how reluctant he was, it was impossible for him to be suddenly killed by Li Guo's rebellious soldiers-this thing did not make sense. Since Zhang Han didn't want to bear the stigma of killing the king, he could only step forward to greet him. Emperor Xian and others have arrived in Dayang, only more than 100 miles away from Anyi, and the time has been delayed for a long time, and the messenger will also come to the door. When the time comes, I am afraid that the emperor and the ministers will have a bad opinion. Rather than this, it is better to take the initiative and have a shorter honeymoon period than nothing.

"My lord, filial piety is reasonable. This should be done sooner rather than later......"

Seeing Zhang Han looking at him, Tian Feng nodded and said. At this point, Zhang Han has become a general trend. Zhongjun can't do it, Tian Feng's request is nothing more than to protect the whole family. However, Emperor Xian went through all the hardships and perilous and miraculously escaped, Tian Feng couldn't help but think in his heart - could it be the destiny of heaven......

People like Zhang Han are still extremely rare in the Great Han Kingdom, and Tian Feng is somewhat in awe of the heavenly ghosts and gods. As the Son of Heaven, Emperor Xian is also shrouded in a somewhat mysterious aura.

Frankly speaking, Tian Feng still has feelings for the Great Han Kingdom. Whether it is for the life of the emperor, for Zhang Han's reputation, or from the heart, Tian Feng does not agree to directly poison the emperor. Of course, if you sacrifice the emperor to the north, someone else will slaughter it. Or in the future, he will give the throne to Zhang Han, Tian Feng can accept it.

"Good!"

Xi Zhicai was not in good health, so Zhang Han left him in Xindu to recuperate and did not bring him with him. Seeing that the two powerful strategists agreed on the same opinion, Zhang Han also made up his mind.

The order flowed like water, and the army that was quietly entrenched in the Wangwu Mountain immediately took action. Zhang Ying and Wang Wenhua led 20,000 horses and 10,000 Wuhuan cavalry to cross the river to the south to fight. According to Zhang Han's order. Ask him to occupy the entire territory of Yin in Henan - including? Yuanguan and develop to Hongnong.

Wu Zifang led the main force of the Bingzhou army from Hedong and directly took Zuo Feng Li? Where the big camp is, enter and occupy the land of Sanfu, sweep away the rest of Dong Zhuo's army, Duan Xuan, and prepare for the attack on Liangzhou. The other part was led by Zhang Lu. When he went to Anyi to join Zhang Han, he should also be prepared to cross the river.

At the same time, Zhang Han personally went out and led his own army to greet Emperor Xian.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

In the distance, a small group of cavalry whistled and surrounded from all directions. For a while, everyone panicked. There were only dozens of people who crossed the river with Emperor Xian, and most of them were old and weak. Moreover, the people had been fleeing for a long time, and after these two days they had crossed the great river, and they could only inhabit the wilderness. There is no water and rice, and they are all hungry with wild vegetables and wild fruits. Everyone is exhausted. This group of cavalry is only in thirty or fifty rooms, which is not as many as Emperor Xian's party. But it is not something they can resist. Hugh said that if he resisted, he wanted to escape, and he was destined to not escape the pursuit of the cavalry. In an instant, the cavalry had faintly surrounded the crowd.

Emperor Xian went through ups and downs, and finally failed to get out of the hands of thieves, and couldn't help but be filled with grief and indignation. Empress Fu's palms were covered with cold sweat, and Emperor Xian smiled miserably and comforted his wife in a low voice. His smile was full of desperation. It's unbearable to see. Seeing that he was in a desperate situation, the servant Han Rong was extremely desperate. His face was as white as paper, and he stood there motionless, but he gave up struggling. Anji General Dong Cheng stood next to his daughter Dong Guiren, his face was flushed, and he held Chang Ge tightly, he had fought on the battlefield for a long time, but he refused to accept his fate easily. If the comer is a rebel, he will do anything. Taiwei Yang Biao stood beside Emperor Xian, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he remained silent - he would not resist. In today's situation, no one would easily kill Emperor Xian. As long as the emperor does not die. They will be fine.

The emperor and queen stood in the middle, and Liu Ai and others stood on the periphery to guard. Liu Ai was in the prime of life, his eyes were better, and he was standing outside, but he saw that he was looking close. The cavalry of Li, Guo and other subordinates were mainly Qianghu, and their clothes were disorderly, but there were traces to be found. These cavalrymen were completely different, I saw that they all wore iron pockets on their heads, wore fiery red uniforms, and were covered with a black color standard armor - the form of the pocket and armor was somewhat peculiar, but it was vaguely recognizable, and it was the style of the Han Dynasty.

This outfit seems to be somewhat familiar, Liu Ai has never seen it, but it seems that he has heard about it. Liu Ai couldn't think of it for a while, but he could conclude that this was definitely not the cavalry of Li, Guo and others. Liu Ai was surprised and delighted, forced himself to calmly take a few steps forward, and shouted:

"Who's coming? The Son of Heaven is here! Hugh is rude! ”

The cavalry scattered around, controlling all the important places around them, and they couldn't help but make a small commotion when they heard the words.

Suddenly, a knight rode his horse alone and trotted a few steps, came not far away, and carefully examined Liu Ai, as if to identify his position from his messy clothes. Seeing this situation, Liu Ai was relieved. The whole court dress was reorganized. Liu Ai found that there was no effect, so he had to give up doing useless work. The knight's clothes and armor were neat and generous, and Liu Ai secretly blushed for his embarrassment. Suppressing his untimely thoughts, Liu Ai cautiously took two more steps forward and said loudly:

"I don't know what this general is called? I'm Liu Ziqi ......"

The knight did not speak, but first bowed, and bowed half-salute:

"Lord Liu, A? In the body, you can't salute, please don't blame! Just now, you said that the Son of Heaven is here, but I don't know if it's true? ”

Seeing that the knight was polite, Liu Ai breathed a sigh of relief. Immediately, the knight's question hung in the air again. At the beginning, Liu Ai only thought about shocking the comer, so as not to hurt the Son of Heaven. At this moment, he knew that his life was worry-free, but he hesitated again. Liu Ai muttered a few words, did not say how the Son of Heaven was, but continued to ask the knight:

"I don't know what to call this general?"

The knight didn't think either, and said loudly:

"I only care about the Son of Heaven in my heart, so it's rude, and I ask Lord Liu to forgive me!

The surname is Wu, the name is ?, and the cursive character is Lu?;

The general of my family is the general of the chariot cavalry to supervise the military of the four states, and the Qingzhou Muzhang chariot to ride, I am just the head of the tent, and I should not be called so by Lord Liu. ”

After talking about his origin in one breath, Wu? Asked again:

"Lord Liu, where is the Son of Heaven?"

"Chief Wu Tun, you said, you are a general of the chariot cavalry

Do you know what can be used as evidence? ”

Zhang Han's reputation in the court is not very good, but he has been paying tribute for several years, and at this moment, it is also extremely rare loyalty. In the months since Liu Ai left Chang'an, he was panicked all day long, his heart was haggard, and he couldn't help but show a hint of joy when he heard the words. No matter how bad Zhang Han is, he will not act like Li Guo.

Five? While talking to Liu Ai, he paid attention to observation. Everyone gathered around a young man in the center, and there were several women beside the young man. I already have some certainty in my heart. Liu Ai quickly put away his joy, but did not hide it from his eyes. Seeing Liu Ai talking like this, Wu? After a moment's hesitation, he smiled and said:

"Lord Liu, I don't have anything to prove my words. But, at this moment, I don't think I need to prove it! On the contrary, I wonder what Lord Liu can prove his identity? ”

These words were extremely rude, Liu Ai frowned, and he was very angry. In the blink of an eye, he smiled. Five? It's rude, but what he said doesn't make sense. Today, Tai'a is holding on to it, and the situation is in full swing? He does not need to prove it.

Liu Ai smiled bitterly, fumbled in his sleeve for a moment, and took out his seal:

"Take it! Here's my proof! ”

……

While he was talking, Emperor Xian had already understood the reason for the matter, he lined up Yang Biao, and everyone hula and separated into one way. Under the escort of Yang Biao, Xuncheng and others, Emperor Xian and Empress Fu approached together, and said with a calm smile:

"Do I have to prove myself?"

Five? He is the third son of Wu Zifangdi. The young man couldn't help but be arrogant and was quite unkind to Liu Ai. However, Woo? Isn't it a person who doesn't know how to advance and retreat, and was offered to the emperor like this, Wu? His face was flushed, and he quickly turned over and dismounted, and made a military salute with his fists in the distance, and he didn't say much. Quickly take out an object and set it on fire.

Emperor Xian was strange, but he saw that the thing "whoosh-" flew into the air, not to mention seventeen or eighteen zhang high, "bang" loud, the fire flashed and disappeared, but it scared Emperor Xian.

Next. I saw that the cannon sounded in a flash, and it had been heard more than ten miles away in an instant.

……

"Your Majesty, hooray, hooray, hooray! The criminal Zhang Han is late, and he deserves death! ”

In the distance, Zhang Han had already seen a group of people holding the moon to escort a young man of 145 or 5 years old slowly. In order to search for Emperor Xian, Zhang Han sent many scout cavalry. Along the way, hundreds of knights have gathered around Emperor Xian. However, the emperor and his entourage were old and weak, women and children. I've been on the run for a long time, and my body is very weak. Some people are not good at riding horses, so they can only ride their horses slowly.

Zhang Han knew. This is the emperor, immediately turned over and dismounted, and he didn't care about the armor? In the body, bow down to the ground from afar. After saying a few words, his voice choked.

Seeing a large army coming, the army was at its peak. The armor he wore was the same as that of the cavalry he encountered earlier. At present, one person was majestic, and he dismounted from a distance and saluted, and the army saw him salute. All followed, and the emperor didn't know how to reason. also hurriedly got off the warhorse:

"Hurry up, please get up, the general is loyal, how can I not know, the general has merit, how can he be at fault?!"

The black crows and crows were lying on the ground with a boundless army, and Emperor Xian's heart was not without feelings. However, Emperor Xian has experienced hardships and countless things for more than ten years in his life, and he has already become a frightened bird, where can he dare to put on the emperor's shelf. Walking quickly to Zhang Han, Emperor Xian personally helped Zhang Han up.

"Your Majesty, the minister wanted to go west to meet the holy driver, but he hated Dong Thief and was vicious, endangering the holy ......"

Zhang Han was agitated, burst into tears, and said a few words intermittently, then choked up.

"Aiqing ......"

Seeing this, Emperor Xian couldn't help but be touched in his heart, and he couldn't help crying.

Zhang Han cried, it was fake crying. For this scene, Zhang Han prepared for a long time, and also used a secret weapon, which had the effect of not stopping tears at this time. The cry of the emperor is really crying. His life has been so difficult. For arrogance and arrogance, as cold as winter, Emperor Xian already had enough endurance, but in the face of loyalty and spring-like warmth, Emperor Xian was not psychologically prepared.

Offering the emperor's voice, the companions couldn't help but shed tears. Since leaving Chang'an City, the east has only gone five hundred miles, but has walked for more than four months, this way is really a knife mountain and a sea of blood, six thousand people out of the city, at this moment there are only a few of these seven people left, who is not full of sadness, hatred......

Tens of thousands of troops stood there silently, and they watched Zhang Han and Emperor Xian and his party howling here, their faces were a little strange.

"Your Majesty, please mourn! Today, Your Majesty has finally escaped the catastrophe, and the coming days are long, please take care of your body......"

Yang Biao is old, he has seen more life and death, and he is used to it, and he cried a few times about his dead concubine and young son, and then let it go - the concubine can remarry, and the number of children and grandchildren is still more. Seeing that Emperor Xian was grieving, he persuaded Emperor Xian to come. Emperor Xian remembered all the sad things for many years, and listened to his persuasion.

Yang Biao persuaded a few words, but it was not a solution. Emperor Xian has endured hardships along the way, and his body is weak! If you keep crying like this, if you have a good one, how can you get it? As soon as Yang Biao was in a hurry, his tone became stern:

"Zhang Che ride, Zhang Che ride, don't cry! Your Majesty's body is important......"

Zhang Han cried for a while, and saw that Emperor Xian was crying happily, and it was not easy to ruin his interest, so he brewed his feelings and prepared to do it again. Yang Biao called him a few times before he reacted and opened his red and swollen eyes to take a closer look. But no, the emperor is crumbling.

Zhang Han hurriedly closed his voice, stepped forward to talk about it, and comforted him. When everyone heard this, they all stopped crying and persuaded together. It's just a matter of offering the emperor. This one stopped crying, but it was terrible. I could only hear the rumbling of thunder rolling over for a while, and in an instant, the thunder was loud, and Lei Gong gathered together.

It turned out that Emperor Xian and others had been running for many days, and they had not eaten well, and they had eaten grass for the past two days, and at this time they were hungry with their chests against their backs, and thunder in their stomachs.

"Your Majesty, please move to the Weichen camp to rest......"

Zhang Han bowed his head slightly, deliberately not looking at Emperor Xian's red face, and whispered to Emperor Xian to enter the camp with him.

In the camp, Zhang Han had already prepared a banquet, a change of clothes, and a camp tent for rest. Of course, Zhang Han also prepared some other things.
