Because the cavalry was on the road, it was much faster than the infantry.
In ten days, Wang Can led the army camp to Hanzhong and prepared to send troops to Chang'an.
Compared with Wang Can and Cao Cao, Wang Can has a slight advantage, because most of Wang Can's itinerary is within his own sphere of influence and will not be blocked.
The army can reach Hanzhong unimpeded, and then leave Sichuan from Ziwu Valley to reach it.
Chang'an, in this way, a lot of time has been shortened virtually.
However, Cao Cao's situation was quite different.
Cao Cao led his troops to Zhongmou County, passed Hulao Pass, passed through Luoyang, then left Hangu Pass in the west and arrived in Chang'an.
This road, after entering Hulao Pass, was filled with Xiliang troops.
If Cao Cao wanted to welcome the emperor, he not only had to fight with the Xiliang troops, but also considered the issue of time.
If the time dragged on too long, the emperor might not be him.
To welcome him back, he became a weapon in Wang Can's hands, so Cao Cao faced greater difficulties than Wang Can.
In Hanzhong, Wang Can led his army to rest and recuperate here.
State Shepherd's Mansion, in the hall.
Wang Can sat high on the main seat, with a group of civil servants and generals below.
Wang Can's eyes swept across the crowd, finally stopping on Wang Yue, and asked: "Ziwu, what are Cao Cao's movements?"
The army started from Chengdu, and Wang Can asked Wang Yue to notify the Hero Building in Yanzhou and asked Yu Yang, the person in charge of the Hero Building, to inquire about the movements of Cao Cao's army and report at any time.
As the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy means you will be victorious in any battle.
Wang Can and Cao Cao sent out troops together, both wanting to hold the emperor in their hands.
As the two armies fought, Wang Can of course had to keep track of Cao Cao's movements.
It would be bad if Cao Cao took the opportunity.
Wang Yue straightened his body, clasped his fists and said, "Reporting to my lord, Cao Cao's army is still rushing to Chang'an non-stop.
There is nothing abnormal.
If it is inferred according to normal time, Cao Cao must have arrived in Chang'an later than my lord."
Wang Can frowned slightly when he heard this.
Cao Cao is not someone who likes to admit defeat.
In such a situation, Cao Cao must have other tricks.
Wang Can thought for a while, but had no clue, and asked: "Fengxiao, how do you think Cao Cao will take the lead?"
Guo Jia was wearing a white robe and a white scarf, and he even held a fan in his hand.
It's June now, and the weather is a bit hot.
It's normal for Guo Jia to have a fan in his hand.
But when Wang Can saw Guo Jia's dress, he immediately thought of Zhuge Liang.
Regarding Zhuge Liang, Wang Can also sent Wang Yue to inquire.
Now Zhuge Liang's uncle Zhuge Xuan has become the governor of Yuzhang, and Zhuge Liang is accompanying him.
Guo Jia clasped his fists and said: "No matter what happens to Cao Cao, what my lord has to do is to hurry up and rush to Chang'an.
Now that the Xiliang army is in internal strife and Zhang Ji and Fan Chou are fighting to the death, it is a great opportunity to welcome the emperor.
My lord and Cao Cao, no matter who goes first If we go to Chang'an, we can take advantage of it and defeat the Xiliang army.
I just want to ignore Cao Cao and rush to Chang'an as soon as possible."
Wang Can looked at Li Ru and asked, "What do you mean by Wen You?"
Li Ru said: "Master Guo's words are reasonable, and Ru has no objection."
Since Li Ru is Dong Hui's brother-in-law and has a relationship with Wang Can, his status has also risen.
However, the more this happened, the more low-key Li Ru became.
As long as it was not about the overall situation, Li Ru would agree with other people's opinions and not make any shocking remarks.
Wang Can glanced at Li Ru, then looked at Jia Xu and asked, "Wen He, what do you think?"
The expression on Jia Xu's face was calm and he said: "My lord, our strategy of leaving Chang'an is correct.
As long as we arrive in Chang'an first, we will have the upper hand.

However, there is no guarantee that Cao Cao will emerge from nowhere, so It is necessary to set up some obstacles to prevent Cao Cao from going to Chang'an."
Wang Can leaned forward slightly and asked, "What's Wen He's clever plan?"
Jia Xu said: "Fan Chou and Zhang Ji were fighting each other, and they did not pay attention to the situation of the princes.
The lord and Cao Cao raised their troops quickly, and Fan Chou and others must not have noticed it.
At this time, the lord sent people to spread the news that Cao Cao was leading troops to attack Chang'an.
I believe that the Xiliang Army will focus on taking care of Cao Cao."
"Papa"
Wang Can heard this, put his hands on his hands and said with a smile: "Okay, Wen He's strategy is wonderful."
Jia Xu's strategy was simple and not complicated, but as long as the Xiliang army held back Cao Cao, it would give Wang Can enough time.
After a pause, Wang Can looked at Wang Yue and ordered: "Ziwu, send someone to spread the news.
Be sure to let the Xiliang army along the way intercept Cao Cao.
It is best to use up all Cao Cao's soldiers and let him reach Chang'an.
It would be best to become a bare commander when the time comes.”
"promise" Wang Yue responded, clasping his fists and agreeing.
When Huang Zhong saw that Wang Can, Jia Xu and others had finalized the strategy, he stood up and clasped his fists and said, "My lord, the army has arrived in Hanzhong.
The last general requested to be the vanguard and lead the troops to Chang'an."
After the voice fell, Pei Yuanshao also stood up and clasped his fists and said: "My lord, the last general also requested to be the vanguard."
Zhou Cang stood up, clasped his fists and said, "My lord, I also request to be the vanguard."
The three tough men looked at Wang Can expectantly, hoping that Wang Can would agree.
This was the first time Huang Zhong went to war since he surrendered to Wang Can, so he was eager to make meritorious deeds.
As for Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang, they were not outstanding in martial arts or planning and had gradually been marginalized, so they hoped to prove themselves through fighting.
Stand up and fight.
Wang Can nodded and said: "Okay, the three of you will each lead 500 soldiers and go to Chang'an as a vanguard."
"Thank you, lord" The three agreed, with excited expressions on their faces.
The three people looked at each other, with a little sparkle in their eyes and a strong fighting spirit on their faces.
Lu Meng glanced at the three of them, with a look of envy in his eyes.
He also wanted to serve as a vanguard and fight, but Wang Can refused and simply did not stand up to ask for a fight.
Outside Hulao Pass, a large army was encamped in an open area.
In the big tent, there were roars.
A short but sturdy middle-aged man wearing a black brocade robe waved his arms and walked back and forth with a ferocious expression.
He snorted and cursed: "Wang Can deceived people too much.
It was already very difficult for us to go to Chang'an.
He actually spread the news.
He obviously wanted the Xiliang army to hold us back.
It's hateful, hateful."
This middle-aged man is Cao Cao.
He screamed loudly and at the top of his lungs, and after a long time, he stopped.
Xi Zhicai smiled and said confidently: "Lord, this is not a bad thing, but a good thing."
Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Zhicai, what do you mean by this?"
Xi Zhicai said loudly: "My lord was heavily surrounded by the Xiliang army, but the news that my lord welcomed the emperor spread.
As long as my lord goes out in the name of saving the emperor, the ministers of Chang'an will definitely be very happy.
At that time, the courtiers will look forward to my lord's rescue." , we must send soldiers to cooperate with our lord.
If this is the case, the journey to Chang'an will not be difficult, but will be smooth."
After hearing this, Cao Cao slammed the desk and said with a smile: "Okay, that's good.
Wang Canqi is just one move away.

It's up to me, Cao Cao, to reach Chang'an first."
After a pause, Cao Cao ordered: "Wen Ruo, please release the news immediately and spread the news that I have raised troops to serve the king."
Xun Yu clasped his fists and said, "I humbly obey my orders." s: The first update, please give me flowers.
