Chapter 559: Road Interception


Of course Cao Cao also knew who Xi Zhicai was talking about.

He was talking about the group of people who wanted to intercept Liu Qi.

Although everyone knew that if the Han army dared to leave in a big way, the King of Han might not be among them, but even if there was a slight chance, they would not let it go.

Then, there is no guarantee that something will happen later.

Xi Zhicai's worries are not unfounded.

But he still believed that those people would handle it well.

Hear Cao Cao's words.

Xi Zhicai also nodded and said no more, and he also knew that there was only a small chance that something unexpected would happen.

After all, those who have made it this far and still occupy a certain position in their camp are not fools.

It is also very clear what things can be done and what cannot be done.

Just like ignoring Cao Cao's orders and mobilizing troops privately, he could do it because he had no selfish motives and was focused on Cao Cao's career.

"Lord, even so, I still need to be warned," Xun Yu said.

Hear the words.

Xi Zhicai's eyes also lit up and he said: "That's how it should be."

Obviously I also thought of something.

Cao Cao also flashed his eyes, touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and said: "In this case, let Zhong Kang go."

"Zhongkang" After saying that, he also shouted towards the entrance of the garden.

"The subordinates are here" From time to time, a burly man appeared at the door of the garden.

It was Cao Cao's personal bodyguard commander, Xu Chu and Xu Zhongkang.

"Take my instructions and go on a journey," Cao Cao said.

Then he also talked about the matter to Xu Chu.

"promise" Xu Chu did not hesitate, turned around and left as soon as he handed over his hand, preparing to convey Cao Cao's order.

Wait for Xu Chu to leave.

"Zhicai, Wenruo, can you think of how the King of Han will leave?"

Cao Cao suddenly asked.

Hear Cao Cao's question.

Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu were also stunned for a moment, and then they began to think deeply, considering the questions asked by Cao Cao. a while "I don't know," Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu also said in unison.

It was also difficult for them to guess how Liu Qi would leave Chang'an.

After all, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, Jia Xu, and all the troops were there, which proved that Liu Qi's current defense was at its weakest.

And Liu Qi also understood his situation, and how could he expose himself so easily.

It is also relatively difficult to guess.

Cao Cao nodded and didn't say much.

Although he was familiar with Liu Qi, he was only familiar with it and could not completely guess it.

If that was the case.

"Wait for the news," Cao Cao said.

Then he placed the white chess piece in his hand on the chessboard and continued the unfinished chess game.

Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu also nodded and said no more.

One of them played chess with Cao Cao, while the other watched from the side, waiting for the news to come back.

But he said.

After the Han army left the camp, they rushed back towards Yizhou in the direction they came from.

They did not hide anything and prepared to march at night with the help of the bright moonlight.

Not fast, but not slow either.

Huang Zhong led five hundred cavalry to open the way in front, and the rest led the remaining soldiers and horses to follow behind, with a difference of less than 500 meters.

After ten miles away from Chang'an City.

Huang Zhong, who was leading 500 cavalrymen to open the road ahead, looked at the front of the road and his eyes were focused.

Because under the bright moonlight, he also saw changes ahead.

I saw.

Ahead, you can see a group of soldiers and horses in the middle of the road, and there are many horse-blocking poles on the road, occupying the entire road, and there are still two rows.

It was obvious that they were specifically dealing with cavalry.

They didn't send spies to inquire ahead.

After all, there was no need, and they only discovered it when they got closer.

From a distance, one can see that there are many soldiers and horses ahead.

Much more than what they have here.

"General, this" Huang Zhong's personal guard said.

Huang Zhong waved his hand and said: "Keep going, you go report this to General Zhao."

"promise" The guard did not hesitate, grabbed the horse, turned the horse's head and went back.

However, Huang Zhong did not stop and continued to lead the five hundred cavalry towards the front. from time to time.

Then he came to the front of the interception.

"General Xiahou, what does this mean?"

Huang Zhong led five hundred cavalrymen and came not far in front of the troops.

He stopped, stood upright with his sword drawn, and looked ahead with a flash of his eyes.

The words also indicated where the soldiers and horses intercepting them from the front came from.

It was the Wei army, and its leader was Xia Houyuan.

"The King of Han has left Chang'an, and I'm just here to see him off," Xia Houyuan said calmly.

However, his eyes were scanning the Han army behind Huang Zhong.

Hearing Xia Houyuan's insincere words.

Huang Zhong also had a focused look in his eyes and said: "Thank you General Xiahou for your kindness.

Our Lord has been away for a long time and may have reached the border of Yizhou now."

Hear the words.

Xia Houyuan was also stunned for a moment.

After all, he also had some guesses.

He had not left Liu Bei or Sun Quan before, let alone Liu Qi, but he did not give up.

And there are still many people who are determined not to give up.

Although they couldn't keep Liu Bei and Sun Quan, they could keep Liu Qi, and they all agreed that Liu Qi was the greatest threat to Cao Cao.

But now it seems that it is not that easy.

"It's better to invite the King of Han to come out."

Xia Houyuan still didn't quite believe it.

After all, Huang Zhong and others were there, so there was a high chance that Liu Qi would be there, and their detection also confirmed the existence of Liu Qi's exclusive mount, the Shadow-Chasing Jade Dragon Drive.

"Your majesty, King Wei, do you want to go back on your word?"

At this time, a voice came from behind.

I saw.

A general wearing silver armor and white robes, riding a white horse and holding a spear, walked out, but this person was not Liu Qi, but Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong.

Also accompanying him were Dian Wei and Jia Xu.

After all, the two soldiers and horses were not far apart.

During this period, Zhao Yun and others also led their soldiers and horses to catch up.

"snort" Xia Houyuan snorted lightly and did not answer.

After all, Cao Cao had given an order to allow the Han army to enter and leave their territory.

As long as there was no threat, they should ignore it.

Of course, that was just this time.

For a while.

The atmosphere between the two parties also became tense.

After all, Xia Houyuan was not willing to let the Han army go just like this, but if the King of Han really no longer participated, the losses in the fight would not be what he could bear. not to mention.

He also knew very well that if Liu Qi was not among them, he would not be able to stop Zhao Yun and others from leaving.

As for the elimination of the Han army's five thousand cavalry, it would not have much effect.

Just when the two sides want to disagree and prepare for conflict.

A horse came galloping from a distance.

"Send the Lord's order to withdraw from the road and let the Han army leave" followed by a loud shout
