Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 687
Zhu Wei used the official official rhetoric to ask Ni Heng to go back to Xudu to convey Zhu Wei's meaning, which basically means that since Zhu Wei has served as the Han Taiwei and has the right to record the affairs of the minister, he should make major political decisions on the affairs of the court power.

Now Zhu Wei thinks that it is really inappropriate for the emperor to move to Xudu.

Luoyang is the confidant of the Central Plains, so the emperor can conquer the world with the spirit of the emperor when he sits in Luoyang. Anyway, according to Zhu Wei's intention, the world is in such chaos now because the emperor is not in his place and cannot be in Luoyang. Caused.

So Zhu Wei asked the emperor to rebel against Luoyang, and this time Zhu Wei can be regarded as rebelling against Cao Cao's army.

Then Zhu Wei used the name of his cheap father Zhu Jun to clarify one thing. At the beginning, Zhu Wei's father Zhu Jun had been working hard for the return of the emperor to Luoyang, but it was a pity that he was blocked by Guo Si and Li Jue. Damage to Chang'an, unable to complete this matter in person.

Now that Zhu Wei has inherited Zhu Jun's old position, the first thing to do is to inherit Zhu Jun's last wish and send the emperor back to Luoyang to set the record straight and stabilize the world.

Therefore, Zhu Wei has already decided to send people to Luoyang first to speed up the repair work of the imperial capital Luoyang, and Zhu Wei will also wait for the emperor to return to the capital in Luoyang.

Zhu Wei completely eliminated the troublesome situation that Cao Cao brought to him, but Cao Cao had to accept the situation. If Zhu Wei took control of Luoyang, would Cao Cao dare to send the emperor back to Luoyang.

If Cao Cao really sent the emperor back, it would be tantamount to sending the emperor to Zhu Wei, which is definitely not something Cao Cao is willing to accept.

Anyway, Zhu Wei expressed such meaning in front of Mi Heng, and then he didn't give Mi Heng any reaction, so he sent Ni Heng back to Xu Du to reply to the emperor.

However, based on the time spent on the road, by the time Mi Heng returns to Xudu, Wei Yan should have brought Jingnanying to Luoyang.

As for Zhu Wei, he will also rush to Luoyang with the follow-up army to prevent Cao Cao from counterattacking Luoyang. Later, Zhu Wei can completely build momentum in Luoyang and continue to welcome Cao Cao to return the emperor to Luoyang.

Therefore, Zhu Wei took advantage of the convenience brought by Cao Cao to launch a surprise attack on Luoyang. Zhu Wei believed that after Cao Cao received Mi Heng's reply, he would definitely feel a little annoyed by Zhu Wei's coping methods emotional.

Well, let's not talk about Zhu Wei's preparations for sending troops, but only Wei Yan's sending troops.

Wei Yan was very excited about this mission after receiving the news brought back by Changshi Jiang Wan. In Wei Yan's heart, he really hoped to be able to take on the mission of going out, and he didn't like to stay in one place for a long time and waste time.

In Zhu Wei's conquest of Jingbei Nanjun and Nanyang Commanderies before, Wei Yan and Gan Ning teamed up to attack Jiangling City. Although this battle was a bit anticlimactic, it was Cai Mao who took the initiative to surrender and ended the war.

And Wei Yan and Gan Ning also received some praises, but they also received some reprimands because they sent troops privately and affected Zhu Wei's overall strategic arrangement.

But in Wei Yan's heart, he didn't have any regrets about what he did in the Jiangling battle.

It's a pity that Wei Yan's Jingnan Battalion did not have any chance to participate in Zhu Wei's campaign against Yuan Shu later. His mission was to garrison Nanyang to prevent Cao Cao's sneak attack.

Later, Gan Ning, who was stationed in Jiangling, actually got the task of conquering Yizhou, but Wei Yan could only be stationed in Nanyang, which inevitably made Wei Yan a little envious of Gan Ning.

In any case, the performance of stationing in one place and protecting one's safety is definitely not as great as the contribution of expanding the territory.

Wei Yan also hopes to be ordered to go out to win more territory for Zhu Wei, then he will naturally gain meritorious service, and he can make greater contributions and get more rewards from Zhu Wei's side.

Now Wei Yan finally got his chance.

This time Zhu Wei is determined to go to the Guanzhong area, and Wei Yan's Jingnan Battalion will become the main vanguard, and even shoulder the important task of raiding Luoyang, relying on the strength of an army to defeat Luoyang.

But Wei Yan was not worried about whether he could complete the task, he was full of confidence in this battle.

After Jiang Wan conveyed Zhu Wei's decision in that big meeting, Wei Yan had already started the military preparations for raiding Luoyang in Wancheng. Wei Yan and Jiang Wan knew about this.

But to the outside world, Wei Yan still relied on Zhu Wei's so-called allocation instructions, as if he had prepared food, grass and materials in advance for the departure of the army, thus making preparations for the logistics materials for the raid on Luoyang.

At the same time, in Wei Yan's secret tent, Wei Yan and Jiang Wan secretly studied the route of sending troops to raid Luoyang many times, and reported to Zhu Wei for approval.

Zhu Wei also sent an accurate map to Wei Yan, but Wei Yan still worriedly sent his confidants to act as scouts to investigate the difference between the map and the real environment, so as to ensure that there would be no accidental changes in the marching route.

So when Zhu Wei arranged for Zhang Xun to lead troops to Wancheng to take over the garrison, Zhu Wei's order to send troops from Jingnan Battalion also arrived.

At this time, Wei Yancai summoned the two generals of the Jingnan Battalion, Chen Jiu, Deng Yi, and other middle-level military officers at all levels, and explained the secret order Zhu Wei issued to the Jingnan Battalion to raid Luoyang.

Then according to the military tactics that Wei Yan had asked for instructions in advance, Zhang Xun sent [-] soldiers to pretend to be the Jingnan Battalion. According to Zhu Weiming's military order, he made the illusion of moving towards Fancheng and continued to release smoke bombs.

Wei Yan, on the other hand, took the [-] main force of the Jingnan Camp with about [-] days of dry food, and headed straight for Daguguan outside the south gate of Luoyang.

Along the way, Wei Yan followed the route he had chosen long ago and marched at the fastest speed. According to Wei Yan's plan, even if his tracks were discovered by Cao Cao's scouts, he would kill them before Cao Cao's scouts gave Luoyang a warning. Go to Dagu Pass and capture Dagu Pass.

As for Jiang Wan, he will take the remaining [-] soldiers of the Jingnan Camp, and [-] auxiliary soldiers to carry the follow-up food and supplies, and slowly catch up.

It took almost five days like this, and Wei Yan had already entered the territory of Luoyang by marching in a hurry, and he could reach Dagu Pass in half a day at most.

At this time, Zhu Wei had just sent Mi Heng away, and he had just made a gesture of going to Luoyang with great fanfare in Xiangyang, playing the slogan of restoring the imperial capital for the emperor and waiting for the emperor to return the capital.

As for Cao Cao, he still didn't know that Zhu Wei had already set his sights on Luoyang. Although it was true that Cao Jun's scouts had spotted Wei Yan's army before, after the news was reported, Xiahou Dun who was stationed in Xiangcheng didn't understand Zhu Wei's army at all. the goal of.

At this time, Xiahou Dun thought that Zhu Wei's army was going to invade Yingchuan, so he just stepped up his battle preparations on the first line of defense in Yingchuan, and then passed the news of the discovery of Zhu Wei's army to Xudu to inform Cao Cao.

As for the defenders at Dagu Pass, the southern gateway of Luoyang, they were completely unaware of any murderous intent. They still opened and closed the gate as usual, and carried out daily checkpoint care...

　It's the third day of the Lunar New Year, and I want to rest these few days, hoo hoo, I hope I won't lose my full attendance!
