Chapter 86: Eating melons and watching the show, integrating military strategies [Seeking follow-up reading]

In the palace, Lu Bu walked into the Chongde Hall.

Emperor Xian had just ascended the throne, and Liu Xie was also present, sitting on the throne.

Dong Zhuo actually stood on equal footing with the emperor.

Lu Bu glanced at the throne and his heart moved slightly.

Dong Zhuo controls the life and death of the emperor and seizes the fate of the Han Dynasty. He has an aura that is growing heavier and heavier.

Lu Bu could feel the good luck from Dong Zhuo, and his military strength improved rapidly.

There seemed to be air currents swirling behind Dong Zhuo, and it seemed as if a vicious tiger was roaring.

Emperor Xian was like a young dragon, suppressed by Dong Zhuo's Tiger Strategy and Military Strategy, and dared not move.

There was a strange scene in the hall. Lu Bu took a look and then looked away.

"Fengxian, I received a secret report that Cao Cao is about to leave Luoyang."

Dong Zhuo said: "Killing him will let everyone in the city see that anyone who leaves without permission will be killed!"

Cao Cao is now the object of Dong Zhuo's close attention.

When the deposed emperor disappeared, he had long suspected Cao Cao and would never let Cao Cao leave.

"But this time, we don't need your men to kill Cao Cao. My good general Hua Xiong is already here.

He and Fan Chou each commanded an army. If Cao Cao dared to leave the city, they would kill him immediately. Fengxian, you stay in Luoyang to help me. If those officials dare to move, you will kill them. "

When Lu Bu came in, he saw a burly, armored general standing in the hall.

The general seemed to smell of blood, and his armor was stained with dried but unwashed blood.

This person is Hua Xiong.

He stepped out and received Dong Zhuo's order, then turned around and glanced at Lu Bu.

Fan Chou was also on one side.

There were scars on his shoulders and cheeks.

In yesterday's battle with Cao Cao and Zhang Liao outside the city, Fan Chou's troops were chased by Zhang Liao and suffered a loss of more than 2,000 men, which was a big defeat.

He was also filled with hatred towards Cao Cao: "This time, I will gather all my troops and defeat Cao Cao severely and bring back his head."

Night falls.

The back door of Cao's mansion opened, and his personal soldiers escorted several carriages out of the mansion.

The personal troops in the palace, plus some elite troops drawn from the Xiyuan Army, totaling more than a thousand, were the assets that Cao Cao could take away from Luoyang.

Riding with him was Yu Qing.

Yin also lay in the car.

The person driving Cao Cao was Zhang Huai, the wielder of the Tianji.

In the carriage at the rear were my father-in-law Yu Wen and his close followers.

Cao Ren, Cao Chun, Cao Hong, and Xiahou Dun were responsible for commanding the troops.

The Xiyuan Army soldiers among these people had been screened based on their identities when they were transferred to Cao's mansion in order to cultivate their loyalty and obedience.

One person worth mentioning is Zhao Rong, the commander of Xiyuan.

He was the only one among the several captains who had no faction. He felt that given the current situation in Luoyang, he had no backing and might be pushed out as cannon fodder at any time.

So he made a quick decision to go with Cao Cao and cling to him.

The emperor left the palace and arrived at the east gate of Luoyang.

In the darkness of the night, Diao Chan stood beside Wang Yun with red eyes, rushing to see him off.

Du Ling, the guard on the top of the city, came to the carriage first and whispered:

"It is my honor as Du Ling to fight alongside the Shangjun in Luoyang. I hope to see the Shangjun again in the future."

Cao Cao stuck his head out of the car, and Du Ling lowered his voice: "Other things have been arranged."

Diao Chan came to the side of the carriage. Before she spoke, her eyes were already slightly moist.

In the car, Yu Qing glanced at Cao Cao. Would her husband just let go of such a beautiful girl and let her stay in Luoyang?
Before Yu Qing could finish his thought, he saw Dian Wei using his hand as a knife and lightly slashing Diao Chan's neck.

The girl's eyes went dark and her body fell limp, and Cao Cao reached out and supported her.

Dian Wei was startled: "I didn't use any strength."

Yu Qing rolled his eyes: As expected...

Wang Yun waved his hand, and a carriage came and joined Cao Cao's convoy.

The car was filled with Diao Chan's things, as well as a few family members' things, which were what Diao Chan usually used.

Wang Yun teamed up with Cao Cao to kidnap Diao Chan.

At that time, at Wang Yun's house, Cao Cao gave him a look before leaving.

Both of them were old foxes. With their eyes, they colluded with each other and decided to let Diao Chan leave with them.

Diao Chan didn't know what was going on and thought that they were really here to see her off. When she was brought to the carriage by Cao Cao, Wang Yun also felt a little sad and told her:

"Meng De, I treat this adopted daughter as my own, so please don't treat her badly."

He added: "General Cui, Minister Lu and others have made preparations to support your departure and have not been able to come. Let me tell you that everyone will remember what you did in Luoyang, Meng De.

If we can meet again in the future, we can talk about our farewell feelings. "

The two men said goodbye briefly and then drove out of the city.

Outside the city, there was another group of people waiting. They were Bao Xin and his entourage, who left Luoyang with Cao Cao.

The night is dark.

After the carriage had traveled twenty or thirty miles out of Luoyang, Cao Cao gave the order to change direction and drive from the official road to a shortcut, deviating from the main road.

On both sides of the team, there were undulating low hills, which became increasingly desolate as they went further.

Yu Qing looked out of the car with great interest. She picked up various snacks one by one and put them into her mouth. When she spit out the fruit cores, she was reluctant to spit them out of the car. Instead, she opened a leather bag beside her, which contained her three good friends.

She was the happiest when she left Luoyang. She felt like a bird out of a cage.

Cao Cao looked at his concubine and found it quite interesting:
"Dong Zhuo's men are coming to intercept us. I told you when we left the city. Aren't you worried at all?"

Yu Qing picked up a preserved fruit and stuffed it into Cao Cao's mouth: "If my husband hadn't planned it well, why would he leave so rashly? Why should I be afraid?"

Cao Cao laughed, thinking that Jia Xu understood everything, but he was too timid to go with him. Even if it was arranged, it would be dangerous. If a stray arrow hit him, it would be the end.

Jia Xu asked for a team of people and left the city first. He was determined not to leave the city with Cao Cao, saying that they were too conspicuous and unsafe.

As soon as Cao Cao's carriage left Luoyang, Dong Zhuo's scouts followed secretly.

At this moment, several members of the scout team were separated and galloped in another direction.

Hua Xiong and Fan Chou's troops camped behind a small hill.

The scout came and reported that Cao Cao's carriage had strayed from the main road.

Hua Xiong said in a gruff voice: "Cao Mengde wants to leave, so he obviously has some plans. He would rather take a longer detour than take the main road."

Fan Chou: "Let's see where he goes, we'll chase him!"

Hua Xiong agreed and rode out on his horse.

The bright moon hangs in the sky.

Dong Zhuo's troops chased all the way and saw Cao Cao's convoy in the distance.

Fan Chou laughed and mocked, "Cao Mengde, why did you flee in such a hurry?"

As he shouted, he saw Cao Cao's troops stopped by the side of the road.

Cao Cao lifted the curtain of his carriage and looked lazily at the pursuers behind him, as if he was just there to watch the show.

Boom boom boom!
Xiao Xiang, who was standing beside the carriage, signaled the messenger to beat the signal drum.

A low drum beat sounded.

"The troops in Luoyang are all under Sikong's surveillance. Cao Cao used a trick yesterday to get an extra group of troops to fight us. Now he is beating the war drums again. Could he still attract more troops?"

Fan Chou had suffered a loss at the hands of Cao Cao yesterday, so he stopped his horse when he heard the drumbeats.

He became cautious, and his troops behind him dispersed, with both wings advancing and weapons pointed forward, ready for battle.

Just then, the ground shook slightly.

Hua Xiong sat on his horse, staring in one direction.

Only thousands of soldiers stepping on the ground can cause this kind of ground-shaking noise.

From the sound of horse hooves, Hua Xiong could tell that the enemy was an elite force and definitely not ordinary ones.

On the opposite side, a team rushed out from the darkness suddenly.

When I heard the sound of its hooves, it seemed like it was very far away.

But the team quickly emerged from behind the mountains beside the official road and engaged in direct combat with the troops of Hua Xiong and Fan Chou.

This method of using the sound of hooves to trick people into misjudging the distance before the troops set out can only be achieved by concealing the truth and making a feint to the east and attacking in the west in military tactics!

As this team appeared, the following entry flashed before Cao Cao's eyes:

[You used your talent for understanding the context to observe that Huangfu Song's men had joined forces with Henan Yin Zhu Jun's troops, and used military tactics to deceive the world and come to help you withdraw from Luoyang]

[You have understood part of the truth of concealing the truth from heaven and earth, which is combined with your strategy of sneaking through Chencang. The two strategies are superimposed, and you get a new strategy. The abilities of concealing the truth from heaven and sneaking through Chencang are integrated.]

[The concealment of this military strategy is stronger than the single strategy of concealing the truth or sneaking into Chencang.]

【瞒天过海（暗度陈仓），双策交融技能值：9，以原有暗度陈仓技能值融入，新策技能值+1+1+1…29…30】

The entry shows the hint of the merged military strategy!
In the carriage, Diao Chan moaned softly and woke up from her fainting.

At this time, Jia Xu, who had left the city earlier, came out from nowhere, with incredibly fast steps, and without making any noise, he came behind Cao Cao:

"General, let's go. Dong Zhuo is not stupid. He suffered a loss yesterday, so he made an extra plan this time. Let's go quickly. If we don't leave now, there will be pursuers coming. It will be too dangerous."

Cao Cao was speechless and said, "Let's go, let's go. If we raise an army to fight a war, it will be a problem for you to accompany the army."
