Xi Zhicai and Cao Cao talked late at night.
After a long time, Xi Zhicai left the bedroom with a satisfied smile.
In the room, the oil lamp suddenly went out and fell into silence.
It is unknown what Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai said, and no one knows what specific issues the two discussed.
In short, Cao Cao's mental outlook has changed, and his piercing eyes are more shining and dazzling.
Although he is still dressed the same, it gives people a refreshing feeling, making people feel that Cao Cao has changed.
The army rested for the night and rushed to Chang'an early the next morning.
Cao Cao led his army to leave Hangu Pass, but he also left soldiers to garrison.
It is impossible for him to stay in Chang'an forever, and he will eventually return to Yanzhou, so he must firmly hold the control of Hangu Pass in his hands, otherwise Hangu Pass will be captured and Cao Cao will have no way to return to Yanzhou.
The army marched westward to Chang'an.
At this time, Wang Can led the army out of Ziwu Valley and rushed from south to north towards Chang'an; Cao Cao led the army out of Hangu Pass and rushed from east to west to Chang'an; Ma Teng led the army from Xi County and headed from west to Chang'an.
Rush east to Chang'an.
The three armies headed towards Chang'an together.
However, due to Liu Xie's mediation, Fan Chou sent troops to block Cao Cao everywhere, and Zhang Ji also sent troops to constantly block Wang Can.
The two armies were resisted and threatened on the way to Chang'an, except for the Xixi army under Ma Teng.
Liang Bing went straight to Chang'an without any obstruction.
Chang'an City, in the palace.
Liu Fan has returned to Chang'an, and the people who investigated the news of Wang Canna and Cao Cao also reported back the news.
Liu Xie was sitting in the main hall, wearing a crown and a black uniform.
He looked at Liu Fan and asked, "Liu Qing, I have tried my best to buy time for Ma Teng.
How many days does it take for him to arrive in Chang'an?"
Liu Fan stood up, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, General Ma has passed Xinfeng County and is coming to Chang'an.
It is estimated that he will arrive in Chang'an at noon tomorrow and defeat the Xiliang army immediately."
After Liu Fan convinced Ma Teng, he and Ma Teng They returned to Chang'an together, but when they were in Xinfeng County, Liu Fan took the lead in returning to Chang'an and made arrangements to welcome Ma Teng.
Liu Xie did not rush to ask about Ma Teng, but asked: "Qing Zhong, how is Cao Cao's situation?"
Zhong Qing means to admonish the official Zhong Shao.
When Zhong Shao heard Liu Xie's question, he immediately stood up and respectfully answered: "Reporting to your majesty, Cao Cao has just defeated Fan Chong's garrison at Hangu Pass, and it will take three days to reach Chang'an.
If Fan Chong sends Xiliang troops to intercept them everywhere, , maybe Cao Cao will not be able to reach Chang'an within five days, so General Ma will have enough time to defeat the Xiliang army."
"Pa" Liu Xie looked excited, stroking his hands and smiling: "Okay, I just hope that Fan Chou will send more soldiers to intercept Cao Cao, so that Cao Cao can arrive in Chang'an later, giving Ma Teng enough time to stabilize Chang'an and eliminate internal troubles."
After a pause, Liu Xie asked again: "Ma Qing, how is Wang Can's situation?"
Ma Qing is the servant Ma Yu.
Ma Yu clasped his fists and said, "Report to your majesty, Wang Can's military attack was too aggressive.
He directly killed Zhang Ji's more than ten thousand Xiliang soldiers stationed in Ziwu Valley, and also killed Zhang Rong, the guard of Ziwu Valley.
Now Wang Can has left Ziwu Valley and went to Chang'an.
Come here.
With the speed of Wang Can's army, it will only take two days for Wang Can to reach Chang'an.
If General Ma cannot break through Chang'an tomorrow, Wang Can will intervene and the situation will be complicated. ” After Liu Xie heard this, his excited expression immediately calmed down.
He reached out and touched his forehead lightly, with a solemn look on his face.
After pausing for a moment, Liu Xie glanced at the people in the hall and asked: "Wang Can arrived in Chang'an too soon to give Ma Teng enough time.
Do you have any plans to stop Wang Can?"
Liu Dan, the censor of the book administration, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I have a plan."
Liu Xie hurriedly said: "If you have any plans, tell me quickly."
Liu Dan said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty wants to ensure that General Ma can defeat the Xiliang Army as soon as possible.
You can call Zhang Ji and ask Zhang Ji to send Zhang Xiu to resist Wang Can.
In this way, not only will the scourge Zhang Xiu be transferred out of the Xiliang Army, but also It can also reduce the resistance of General Ma's attack on the city.

Your Majesty not only creates difficulties for Wang Can, but also reduces the difficulty for General Ma.
The chances of defeating the Xiliang army increase with each passing day. " After hearing this, Liu Xie pondered for a while and said, "The strategy is good, but it needs Zhang Ji's nod.
Which of you is willing to go to the Hou General's Mansion to persuade Zhang Ji?"
After the words fell, no one stood up to speak.
Liu Xie glanced at a few people, felt cold in his heart, and suddenly clenched his hands on his knees.
Immediately, Liu Xie waved his hand and said: "Please step aside, I will solve Zhang Ji's problem."
"I'll take my leave."
Several people clasped their fists and said something, then turned and left the palace.
Outside the main hall, Liu Dan and Liu Fan left together.
Both of them were the sons of Liu Yan.
When they stayed in Chang'an, they always lived in the same house and did not live in separate families.
The two people got on the carriage one after another and rushed to their house.
Liu Dan had a look of confusion on his face and said, "Brother, I was just about to ask Ying to persuade Zhang Ji, why did you stop me?"
Liu Fan snorted and said coldly: "You are so humble, so how can Zhang Ji agree?"
Liu Fan forced himself to say: "Even so, I should try hard.
Even if I can't succeed, wouldn't it be better for His Majesty to come forward?
We are ministers, and we are also relatives of the royal family."
Before he could speak, Liu Fan interrupted: "Second brother, you don't have to worry about the royal family.
You stay in Chang'an and think more about the Liu family.
Now that my father has died of illness, my third brother has been killed, and my fourth brother has been imprisoned, we The two of them are in jail, and I have not allowed you to get involved in political affairs, just to let you live well and continue the Liu family's family lineage, and not to cut off the Liu family's incense. " Seeing Liu Dan's dissatisfaction, Liu Fan continued: "I am enough to be loyal to the royal family.
Even if I am killed, you can still preserve the Liu family's bloodline and let our bloodline pass on.
Do you understand?"
After Liu Dan heard this, he felt very unhappy.
He opened his mouth to speak, but seeing Liu Fan's expression, he held back the words that came to his mouth and could not speak.
In the palace, Liu Xie was breathing loudly and smashed several priceless porcelains.
He put his hands behind his back and paced back and forth in the hall.
When Liu Xian died, although Liu Xie believed in the strategy Liu Xian had formulated for him, he did not believe what Liu Xian said.
However, at this moment, Liu Xie seemed to understand that no one was reliable or available.
When he thought that no one dared to go to Zhang Ji's mansion, his heart felt cold.
If people's hearts are like this, what can he do?
Although Liu Xie was quite scheming and could stay calm in front of others, without anyone in the palace, he was no longer the calm emperor, but a young man loudly venting his dissatisfaction.
There was no one available in Nuo Da's court.
This situation has to be said to be sad.
After a long time, Liu Xie calmed down his inner anxiety.
He carefully arranged his clothes and regained the dignity that an emperor should have.
Then he returned to his seat and said loudly: "Here comes someone."
Not long after, a young eunuch ran in and said sharply: "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
The young eunuch was Liu Xie's confidant, not Zhang Ji or Fan Chou.
Liu Xie ordered: "Go and ask General Yang Feng of Xingyi to come.
I have something to summon you."
"promise" The eunuch replied, turned and left.
Liu Xie looked at the eunuch's leaving figure with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Regarding Ma Teng's invasion of Chang'an, he must move step by step without any carelessness.
He must first resolve the situation in Chang'an and then deal with Zhang Ji and Fan Chou's affairs. s: Guarantee the third of the fourth update, please send flowers and collect birds
