Sure enough, one of the scouts in front was coming here quickly. At this time, the huge roar began to stop slowly. The scouts quickly arrived in front of Sun Yi and others. He turned over and dismounted. He half knelt on the ground and said, "general! I don't know the reason ahead. Suddenly a huge rock collapses and the road is completely blocked! "
"What?" At the same time, the three men exclaimed and looked at each other. At the same time, an idea flashed from the bottom of their hearts that there were enemy troops intercepting them.
Sun Yi has a cold face, but after the last lesson, Sun Yi is no longer impulsive. He turns to ask Chen Yang and Lu Xun, "what do you think? Is it a coincidence or is there an enemy? "
Chen Yang and Lu Xun are both frowning. They can't be sure about this. If it's a coincidence, it's too coincidental. Just after an obstacle, the road is blocked here. However, it doesn't make sense to say it is the enemy. Why did they not come from the rescue when they defeated the 50000 Cao army yesterday? Cao Cao's army can not be so extravagant! That's tens of thousands trapped in the camp!
Unable to understand the reason, Lu Xun put forward a suggestion: "I don't think we can go on this road any more! Although we are not sure whether it is a deliberate obstacle made by the enemy, we'd better find another way out just in case
Chen Yang also nodded his head in agreement. Sun Yi's face was full of reluctance. In order to find another way out, he would have to go back to the intersection where he had passed a few hours ago. This means that they have gone for nothing in these hours today, and the distance between them and the pursuers behind them has been narrowed a lot. Sun Yi, who was disgusted by the fact that he ran away without fighting, really wanted to turn around and find those pursuers to kill them.
"Elder martial brother! It's better to listen to Bo Yan When Chen Yang saw Sun Yi's expression, he knew that Sun Yi's temper was coming up again, so he immediately advised him. It can be said that yesterday's battle was extremely dangerous. If Chen Yang had not stabbed Gao Shun, it would have been Xuzhou cavalry who would have lost in the end. However, Sun Yi only nodded his head to show his agreement. Under the orders of the three men, the Xuzhou regiment turned around again and went back from the original road.
Before long, the news of the Xuzhou regiment's withdrawal reached Cao Jun, who was ambushed in front of him. After listening to the intelligence from Cao's scouts, XiaHouYuan nodded thoughtfully and waved to stop the Cao soldiers who were preparing for the third trap. One side of the Xiahou Shang quickly came forward and asked, "uncle! When the Xuzhou regiment left, did we not make these traps in vain? "
Xia Houyuan narrowed his eyes and said to himself with a smile: "I can't believe that some of their young generals can be so decisive that they would rather be drawn closer by the pursuers than take risks any more. Although it has been regarded as a relatively high evaluation of them, it seems that they are still underestimated these boys! But do you think you can get away with it? That would be naive! "
Speaking of this, Xia Houyuan immediately called several scouts and said to them, "now go and watch every move of the Xuzhou regiment and find out which way they will start. After finding out, inform me and the friends in the north in time."
"Here it is After receiving Xia Houyuan's orders, several scouts quickly turned back and drove to the north on a fast horse. Looking at those scouts' figures, Xia Houyuan smiles: young man, let me give you a good lesson, what is war!
In the night, the bangs just struck in Chang'an City indicate that the residents in Chang'an city are already on the third watch, that is, midnight. The noisy night market of Chang'an has gradually fallen into the darkness and silence. Only occasionally comes the sound of patrol soldiers.
A carriage suddenly appeared on the street, the wheels pressed on the bluestone slab of Chang'an Street, making a squeaking sound. However, on the way, a good team of patrol soldiers had passed by, but no one dared to stop the carriage to inquire. This is because there is a big "Chen" on the top of the carriage, which shows who the owner of the carriage is.
Chen Qun, the current imperial historian of the Han Dynasty, is nominally the official of the Han Dynasty. However, in fact, everyone knows that Chen Qun was a counsellor under Cao Cao's command, especially Chen Qun was good at government affairs. In recent years, the Northern Wei Dynasty was able to expand its armaments so strongly, among which Chen Qun made great contributions behind the scenes. Although on the surface, Chen Qun did not even enter the think tank set up by Cao Cao, as long as the core personnel under Cao Cao's account knew, Cao Cao attached great importance to Chen Qun. Even the mansion that Chen Qun lives in is approved by Cao Cao himself. The scale of the mansion is just a little less than those of Cao family and Xiahou family.
Cao Cao paid so much attention to Chen Qun, not only because of his superior administrative ability, but also because of Chen Qun's seriousness of his own work, which absolutely made the other generals under Cao Cao's command blush. It's midnight now. Most of the officials have already been sleeping in the warm quilt and sleeping with their concubines in their arms. But Chen Qun just came out of his official residence and set foot on the way home.
During this period, Chen Qun's workload increased greatly, not to mention the seizure of Qingzhou last year, which made the supply of grain and grass in the Northern Wei Dynasty suddenly tight. This time, Cao Cao had to mobilize a large number of troops to hoard on the border, which also made Chen Qun, the logistics officer of the Northern Wei Dynasty, to the utmost to meet the needs of the front-line army. A few days ago, Cao Cao suddenly sent someone to inform him that he was ready for the supply of grain and grass in Jizhou in the coming year.Although we don't know what kind of clever plan Cao Cao and his think tanks are discussing, since Cao Cao's order has been given, Chen Qun, as a subordinate of Cao Cao, will naturally complete Cao Cao's order. It can be said that Chen Qun has worked so late every day these days. Fortunately, Cao Cao sent people to send him tonics to replenish his vitality. Otherwise, Chen Qun might have to die in his official residence one day.
Even now in the carriage, Chen Qun is reading it carefully with an official document in his hand. This is the official document sent from Liangzhou two days ago. It is mainly said that Xia Houyuan, the governor of Liangzhou, led troops to Qingzhou to assist him at the order of Cao Cao. The consumption of grain and grass along the way needs to be reported for approval. As for when Xia Houyuan left Liangzhou, why Cao Cao sent him out of Liangzhou and what he went to Qingzhou to help, Chen Qun did not know.
Chen Qun looked at the document, but frowned and rubbed his forehead. Xia Houyuan has Cao Cao's token, and Xia Houyuan himself is also a member of Cao Cao's clan. I think Xia Houyuan will not falsely preach Cao Cao's will. But what is the matter that makes Cao Cao mobilize people to Qingzhou so wantonly? Recalling Cao Cao's explanation of the grain and forage problem in Jizhou some time ago, Chen Qun vaguely felt that Cao Cao seemed to be brewing a big plan. Otherwise, he would never have no reason like now.
To be able to make such a big plan for Cao Cao, you don't have to think about it. Apart from those two people, it is estimated that no one else in the Northern Wei Dynasty could give advice to Cao Cao. As for others, Xu you? What's the season? Those two, frankly speaking, are actually good at flattering others. As for the Xin brothers, their intelligence is also very mediocre. If it was not for Chen Qun and Zhong Yao who were not good at strategic deployment, where could they be recruited into Cao Cao's think tank.
Jia Xu! Sima Yi! Chen Qun's mind gradually emerged the appearance of these two people, these two people can be said to be the world's rare genius, Chen Qun is also self lamented inferior. Especially that Jia Xu, Chen Qun just joined Cao Cao's tent. When he saw Jia Xu for the first time, especially when he saw the cold light in his small eyes, he couldn't help shivering. I really don't understand. When he was under Dong Zhuo's account, he was not put into important position? No wonder Dong Zhuo and Dong min lost so fast!
As for Na Sima Yi, he is undoubtedly a very talented young man. His intelligence has far exceeded that of Xu you and Feng Ji. I believe that even compared with Jia Xu, he is not much worse. And the most important thing is that Chen Qun can see the ambition in his eyes, but compared with Jia Xu, Sima Yi is still a little young. Moreover, Chen Qun can see that Sima Yi is very loyal to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao also holds the lifeblood of Sima family.
If these two men were not in the Northern Wei Dynasty, they would have been destroyed by the eastern Wu! Thinking of this, Chen Qun can't help but sigh. Compared with the talented Dongwu, the Northern Wei Dynasty is indeed much worse. Not only is the military strength weaker, but also in terms of talent reserve, whether it is a minister or a military general, the eastern Wu Dynasty is much more than the Northern Wei Dynasty.
"The future of the Northern Wei Dynasty is worrying." Chen Qun sighed softly.
"It seems that the future of the Northern Wei Dynasty is not important to a dying man." Chen Qun's voice did not fall, a cold man's voice suddenly sounded from Chen Qun's head, Chen Qun suddenly seemed to have tens of thousands of ants crawling behind him, and his whole body was shivering.
At this time, a white hand suddenly reached into Chen Qun's mouth, and covered Chen Qun's speech just as he was about to shout out. At once, Chen Qun's face was as pale as that hand. In Chen Qun's eyes full of fear, a sharp dagger suddenly reached Chen Qun's eyes, and then gently, slowly wiped it on Chen Qun's neck.
"Hiss!" A slight voice sounded, Chen Qun felt his neck cool for a while, and then the strength of his whole body began to gush out from his neck. Chen Qun's eyes were full of panic at the beginning, then gradually became gray. After struggling for half a column of incense, Chen Qun's eyes lost their luster forever. But has been covering in Chen Qun's mouth that white as jade's hand, after confirming Chen Qun's mouth and nose no longer has the breath, this just slowly retracts back.
