Chapter 190 Out of the Mountain

In the increasingly fierce situation in Chang'an, since Liu Xie had been "supporting" Li Jue on the surface, Li Jue had a considerable advantage, but due to the civil war between the two sides, the people in Chang'an were in vain.

In this situation, Liu Xie told Li Jue that Chang'an was too chaotic and was close to Guo Si's army. He was in peace when he sat in this hall and hoped to return to Luoyang east.

First, he was far away from Guo Si's army, and second, Luoyang has been a royal family since ancient times. If he could return east, he would have an explanation to his ancestors. Moreover, Luoyang was also under the control of Li Jue, so he was just seeking peace.

When Li Jie heard Liu Xie's words, his first reaction was to refuse, but when he thought about it, Luoyang had been burned by Dong Zhuo's fire, he had barely recovered a little vitality in the past few years, and Hulao Pass towards the Central Plains was also firmly controlled by him, so it was difficult for Liu Xie to escape.

However, he still felt a little uneasy. After thinking about it, he found Jia Xu and asked Jia Xu what Liu Xie meant this behavior.

Jia Xu was silent for a while and said that his battle with Guo Si in Chang'an was too outrageous and detrimental to the royal dignity. Moreover, Guo Si seemed to be a little dissatisfied with the emperor, so it was understandable that the emperor wanted to return east and stay away from this place of failure.

After hearing Jia Xu's words, Li Jue expressed his understanding. He breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that this little emperor was not the little emperor who had a second intention, but was just frightened by the battle between him and Guo Si.

He secretly mocked Liu Xie for being timid in his heart. He could be frightened in this scene. Wouldn't he be scared to see the scene of thousands of troops raiding on the plains?

The next day, he came to the palace to tell Liu Xie that he agreed to Liu Xie's opinion, but when he went to Luoyang, all guards and safety work must be handed over to his subordinates.

Liu Xie nodded in agreement with this.

In early June, Liu Xie's cart left Chang'an and walked towards Luoyang with all the officials. Li Jie's subordinates Dong Cheng, An Ji General Yang Ding, Anxi General Yang Feng, and Li Jie's general Yang Feng led the army to protect Liu Xie.

After seeing the emperor leave, Li Jue and Guo Si are in conflict more and more frequent. Due to the emperor's departure, the two of them do not have to suppress their own behavior too much, and the whole Chang'an is in a state of harmony for a while.

Since Liu Xie had helped Li Jue a lot before, Li Jue soon gained the upper hand in the battle in Chang'an. Guo Si was so angry that he was secretly gritting his teeth. If the little emperor hadn't been tortured, how could he lose to Li Jue?

Youdao is to take a step back and the sky is wide open. The more you think about it, the more angry it becomes. Guo Si, who lost to Li Jue in the front, naturally became more and more difficult to figure it out. Since he can't figure it out, he will use people to vent his anger.

Li Jue, who was in front, couldn't win for a moment, so he looked around. It didn't matter when he saw it, and he immediately found his target, Liu Xie's convoy.

If you say that Liu Xie naturally wanted to go to Luoyang faster, the better. Because Cao Cao heard from him that there were abnormal movements in Yangzhou and Qingzhou. In addition, the Heishan Army also made several major cases in several places in Taishan, and Cao Cao's troops were transferred to support him, so he was unable to come to welcome him for a while.

However, if Liu Xie could persevere until the end of the year, Cao Cao should be able to free up a force to help him. Although Liu Xie had an MMP in his heart, he had to accept it with a smile on his face.

After all, neither side expected that Liu Xie was ready, but Cao Cao, who seemed to have no problem, had something wrong with this, and Cao Cao was helpless.

As for the reason, it was precisely because Cao Cao took the land of the three states with his own strength, which put too much pressure on the surrounding princes. In Yangzhou, Yan Xiang, a counselor of Yuan Shu, said that Cao Cao would have to be empty in his possession of the land of the three states.

Although he was beaten up by Cao Cao before, Yuan Shu had no idea of ​​attacking when Cao Cao took Yuzhou. When Yan Xiang said that, he looked at the jade seal presented by Sun Ce, and thoughts arose in his mind, asking General Ji Ling and General Zhang Xun to lead an army of 10,000 to invade Runan County in Yuzhou.

Seeing Yuan Shu's army coming, Xiahou Dun, who was stationed in Runan, saw that the enemy was powerful and the Runan defenders were less than 3,000, decided to avoid his edge, slowly retreat, and retreat to Qiao County.

On the other hand, Liu Bei was arranged by Cao Cao to train troops in Pei. After receiving the news of Yuan Shu's attack, Cao Cao ordered him to take Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to Qiao County to support him.

Since Yuan Shao learned that Cao Cao had occupied the three states, he was not as good as before. His generals and advisers also said that Cao Cao had a great power and might have a strange intention. He also felt that his little brother had taken down such a large piece of land without a sound, and he was still fighting to death with Gongsun Zan and Tian Kai in Hebei.

In order to test Cao Cao's attitude towards him, he sent a letter to Cao Cao, saying that he was too busy to fight in the two states with his own strength, and hoped that Cao Cao could restrain Tian Kai's Qingzhou army from below.

After receiving Yuan Shao's letter, Cao Cao exchanged views with a group of advisers on the matter.

Everyone knew that this letter from Yuan Shao was testing Cao Cao's attitude, so they just talked about whether to support it or not and how to support it.

Man Chong stood up and said to Cao Cao, "This matter is not difficult. Didn't you just get news that Black Mountain bandits are rampant in Taishan County and General Lu can't control himself? We sent a large army to move into Mount Tai to help General Lu eliminate Black Mountain bandits entrenched in Mount Tai, and it can also have a detachment effect on Tian Kai's army in Qingzhou."

Hearing Man Chong's words, Cao Cao smiled and affirmed, "Boning's plan is very heartbroken, but who will leave it to deal with it at this time? Can anyone choose?"

Both Cao Cao and other strategists praised Man Chong's plan. This plan can not only eliminate internal troubles but also prevent external troubles. If Lu Bu freed up his hand, then with his reputation, I believe that not only Qingzhou will feel pressure, but Xuzhou will also have some concerns about Cao Cao and Liu Bei, who is far away in Yuzhou below.

However, Lu Bu was born unruly, and with outstanding skills, the person who led the army needed to consider it carefully. If he was too weak, he would inevitably be seized by Lu Bu. As for being too strong... At present, it seems that he has always led troops, and there are not many people in Cao Cao who can compare with Lu Bu.

When everyone was thinking about who would lead the troops, Xun You thought of someone and couldn't help but smile.

Cao Cao, who was sitting on it, found Xun You's smile and pointed at Xun You, "Gongda smiled so easily, but is there anyone in his heart?"

Seeing everyone looking over, Xun You stood up and smiled and said, "Of course, but this person is enjoying the joy of family. If he knew that he would lead the army to the war because of my mouth, he would probably secretly scold me behind his back."

Although Xun You did not say his name, he told everyone in just one sentence about who he recommended.
