Three Kingdoms: The identity of the eldest son of the Great Wei was exposed by Dian Wei

Chang’an City, Zhangfu.

Early in the morning, Zhang Xiu came to find his uncle Zhang Ji, after all, he had received an order from Dong Zhuo to go to Tongguan to garrison, but he had not yet received instructions.

The two came to the study, and when they were about to discuss, they found that there was an extra letter on the case, and the two looked at each other, their faces glowing with joy.

Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu hurriedly unfolded the letter, looked at the contents of the letter, and both showed surprise, and only after reading it did they notice the token on the case.

“Uncle, I didn’t expect that Cao Mengde’s subordinates could get Lord Xiangguo’s token, and this time a big event can be done!”

After Zhang Xiu said excitedly, looking at the token in his hand, Zhang Ji recognized the token at a glance, and said with some doubts.

“Xiu’er, you said that I am waiting to garrison Tongguan, and the two generals Li Yu and Guo Fang are stationed at Hangu Pass, is Cao Mengde already budgeted?”

“If so, this is inevitably a bit of a prophet, just need me to lure Li Yu and Guo Yun to Luoyang, then I really don’t have much to do!”

“But I don’t know all of Cao Mengde’s plans, Xiu’er, do you think I will directly follow Cao Mengde to attack Chang’an once and for all?”

Zhang Ji already had thoughts in his heart, if he only let Cao Jun enter the pass, the credit would not be great enough, and the reward he would get might be average.

Since he has decided to oppose Dong Zhuo, there is no way back, it is better to bet directly, Zhang Xiu shook his head slightly, and said after a little contemplation.

“Uncle, I have to keep an eye on it, although the soldiers and horses in my hands are under Lord Xiangguo, it is not much.”

“But it is also tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, if it is in the hands, it will be invincible, but entering Chang’an will definitely be damaged.”

“I just need to show an attitude, presumably Cao Mengde still has calculations in Chang’an, I better not interfere later, it’s too late!”

Zhang Xiu’s words made Zhang Ji’s restless heart gradually calm down, not as urgent as just now, and said after calming his mind.

“What Xiu’er said is that I still have to control my subordinates and pawns, so let’s do it, I will increase the input of food when I am stationed in Tongguan.”

“As long as I wait for the soldiers under me, there is no need to be afraid of those princes after the military power is in hand, and see the follow-up development!”

……

On the other side, Cao Chen led his generals and soldiers to march towards Chang’an, and due to the presence of infantry, the march speed was not very fast.

At the front of the team, Cao Chen was riding the snow dragon horse with a relaxed look, and Cheng Yu, who was walking next to him, asked with some doubts.

“Zi Zhan, I am not fast when I wait for the march, so when I arrive at Chang’an, I must have done a good job of defense.”

“Why don’t you march quickly, and take Hangu Pass first when the enemy army is not well defended, so that it will be easier to fight against the Dong thief.”

Cheng Yu had just defected, and he still didn’t know the plans of Cao Chen and Cao Cao and others, so it was not wrong to ask each other like this, after all, it was the best strategy to hit the enemy by surprise.

In the face of Cheng Yu’s question, Cao Chen looked a little relaxed, with a smile on his face, and said after a slight groan.

“Zhongde, it’s not time yet, don’t worry, I’m waiting to march quickly now, and I also want to forcibly attack Nahangu Pass.”

“Hangu Pass and Tong Pass are both Xiongguan, even if it is not heavily defended, I have to pay a huge price, rest assured, I have my own plan.”

After Cao Chen finished speaking, he still walked forward unhurriedly, looking at Cao Chen’s confident appearance, Cheng Yu was still a little puzzled.

After all, Cheng Yu is now fifty years old, and the average life expectancy in ancient times is not high, and Liu Bei even said when he was dying: Fifty people are not worthy of death.

Now that Cheng Yu has defected to Cao Cao, he naturally wants to make a contribution as soon as possible, but looking at Cao Chen’s calm appearance, his heart is indeed full of impatience.

Cheng Yu’s thoughts flew in his heart, thinking about how to capture Chang’an’s strategy, but after racking his brains, there was still no good strategy, and the disparity in troops was huge.

But Cheng Yu had prepared his words in his heart, and he must persuade Cao Chen to speed up the march, and at this time, a white dove fell into the army.

A brocade guard dressed as an ordinary bodyguard took the carrier pigeon and soon came to Cao Chen, presented the secret letter with both hands, and said aloud.

“Lord Qixi, a letter from Chang’an, please check it!”

After Cao Chen took the secret letter, he waved his hand to let Jinyiwei go down first, and then he looked at the secret letter, and the smile on his face was even greater, and said.

“Zhongde, now the time is almost up, Chang’an will be determined!”

After speaking, Cao Chen urged the snow dragon horse to speed up, while Cheng Yu only heard the word ‘Chang’an’ mentioned by Jinyiwei, and his expression became solemn.

Could it be that Cao Chen had already arranged something in Chang’an, Cheng Yu’s heart finally flashed a trace of clarity, and a brilliant light flashed in his eyes, chasing after Cao Chen.

……

At night, Cao Chen ordered his generals to set up camp, and then took Xiahou Tuan, Cheng Yu and others to the temporary tent.

Cao Chen was seated on the main seat, everyone sat down, Cao Chen looked around, and said loudly.

“Everyone, I will march quickly, the matter in Chang’an has been decided, and I will rush to Hangu Pass to put pressure on Dong Jun.”

“But when the time comes, just feign, try not to have casualties, and in a short time, the door will open automatically.”

When Cao Chen’s words fell, everyone’s faces were different, such as Xia Hou Tian and others had smiles on their faces, and Xia Houyuan said aloud.

“Zizhan you can rest assured, you said let me wait how to do, I will do it, there is Zizhan planning, I have not suffered a loss yet!”

After Xiahou Yuan finished speaking, Xiahou Yuan and Cao Hong also nodded with deep understanding, and Le Jin still asked with some doubts.

“Junshi, could it be that the generals stationed at Hangu Pass are our own people, how can the gate be opened by itself?”

Xu Rong and Zhang Liao also looked puzzled, and they couldn’t think of any generals under Dong Zhuo to join them, and others didn’t want them to be involuntarily.

However, after coming to Cao Ying, he quickly adapted to it, and the soldiers had a solemn military appearance, not at all as unscrupulous as the Western Liang Iron Cavalry, bullying the people and disturbing the city.

Cao Chen on the main seat smiled, did not speak, but after discussing some details, let them leave separately, only Cheng Yu stayed until the end.

“Zi Zhan, is there a plan in Chang’an, I have thought about it for a long time, I can only think of Zi Zhan recovering the generals guarding the pass, and driving straight into Chang’an.”

“But there are many Xiliang lines under Dong thief, I really can’t imagine what will happen in Chang’an, and I asked Zizhan for advice!”

After Cheng Yu finished speaking, he bowed to Cao Chen, who quickly helped Cheng Yu up, his face also became solemn, and said loudly.

“Zhongde, there are not many people who know about this kind of scheme, you only need to know that Dong thief is going to die, and someone will do it.”

“And Hangu Pass and Tong Pass don’t need me to wait for a strong attack, I can drive straight into Chang’an and reap the benefits of fishermen!”

Listening to Cao Chen’s story, the essence in Cheng Yu’s eyes appeared, and when he looked at Cao Chen again, he was already a little relieved and awe-inspiring.
