The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 125 Wanting to Welcome Emperor Han
"Uncle Wang Shi really did that."

Wei Tao heaved a long sigh. Usually, news delivery is slow, but since he was preparing to welcome Emperor Han together with Cao Cao, Wei Tao naturally paid more attention.

So this time Lv Bu almost beheaded Dong Zhuo, and Wei Tao got the news at the beginning of the third day.

"Once Dong Zhuo dies, his subordinates will be in chaos. If the prince asks His Majesty to pardon his crimes, he can still stabilize the overall situation. In the future, he will take care of it slowly. What he does now may be his own death."

Xun You shook his head and answered the sentence, then bowed his hands to Wei Tao, and said seriously.

"My lord, now that Dong Zhuo is dead, His Majesty's safety is uncertain. Make plans early on and ask Cao Mengde to send troops as soon as possible."

"Sir, you also think that Lu Fengxian can't stop Dong Zhuo's remnants?"

Wei Tao nodded first, then asked again.

"Although the number is not enough, if Lu Bu, the number one brave general in the world, can command and rectify Chang'an's army, it may not be impossible to fight Dong Zhuo's remnant. Now among Dong Zhuo's remnant, except for one Zhang Xiu, the rest of the people are probably in the same group. Lu Bu's subordinates don't have the ability to walk face to face."

"If Lu Bu can really fully control Chang'an's soldiers and horses, and the walls of Chang'an are high and thick, even if Dong Zhuo's remnant troops double, they may not be able to conquer Chang'an."

Xun You let out a long sigh, his tone full of helplessness.

"In the past, You was an official in Luoyang, and he had dealt with Wang Zishi. Wang Zishi was a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty. Although he was upright and stubborn, he was flexible. In the struggle between the government and the government, Wang Zishi took advantage of his strengths, and Dong Zhuo died because of this. , but the battle between the two armies was not short-lived. What's more, with Dong Zhuo's lesson in hand, how dare Wang Zishi entrust the power of Chang'an to Lu Bu?"

"It is so."

Wei Tao smiled wryly, this is also the result of factional struggles in the court, now that Wang Yun monopolizes the power, his upright character must think that he is a big man, those rebellious ministers will never be tolerated by Wang Yun.

"However, thinking about Chang'an may not be that simple. In the past, the [-]th Route Allied Forces' campaign against Dong was a false decree. Such a thing can never be done again. If there is no righteousness to enter Chang'an, I am afraid that it will not only cause criticism, but also People in the world hate it. Although brother Meng De is informal, I'm afraid he doesn't want to risk the dissatisfaction of the world."

Wei Tao knew Cao Cao, although Cao Cao would not stick to such methods, but when he saw that the Han Dynasty could rebuild its prestige, he might not be able to make a decision for a while.

Moreover, it is not that simple to send troops, not to mention the preparation of soldiers, it is not so easy to just send troops to cross the various counties and cities to reach Chang'an.

"My lord, there are also capable people under Cao Mengde. Others may not know it. If my uncle Xun Wen must know it, if your majesty falls into the hands of Dong Zhuo's remnant party again, he will not speak much in the future. He will definitely persuade him to welcome the Han. Emperor, as long as the general responds to it, he will definitely get it."

Xun You also understood Wei Tao's concerns, but said right now.

"And even if the lord can't do it, then Cao Mengde must have recruited soldiers. It won't be long before he wants to unify the state and realize the lord's wish. Please make a quick decision, lord."

"In this case, I will send someone to go immediately."

After thinking for a while, Wei Tao finally nodded, and immediately sent Han Hao as an envoy to meet Cao Cao.

Since Wei Tao was able to get Xun You's guidance, the other princes also got the information more or less at this time, and the officials under him also expressed their opinions.

You must know that there are almost no other top generals like Lu Bu in the world today. After all, even a peerless general like Dian Wei can't compare with Lu Bu in battle formation, and he can't even become a top general. It can only be said that he has just taken a step That's all.

However, there are many top counselors like Xun You who have already become officials. Counselors rely on their own ability to view the world. Although there are not many counselors who can see this situation, it is not impossible.

They can naturally see that today's world is at its weakest, and if they send troops to meet them, they will gain great benefits.

While Xun You was persuading Wei Tao, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were also persuaded by their subordinates.

Yuan Shao is now preparing to destroy the Black Mountain bandits first, then go north to Youzhou to fight Gongsun Zan, and then go south to Qing and Xu. If the strategy is successful, Yuan Shao can occupy the northern part of the Han Dynasty alone, and he is not very interested in welcoming the emperor.

In addition to Dong Zhuo's previous actions, in Yuan Shao's view, although the appeal of the Han Dynasty in the world is still there, it is not much different from the appeal of the Yuan family's four generations and three princes, so there is no need to make trouble for himself.

As for Cao Cao, he was really tempted, not only for political interests, but also in Cao Cao's view, if he could welcome the emperor to his territory and then help him wholeheartedly, then it would be the best way to help the Han Dynasty and revitalize the Han Dynasty Methods.

However, Cao Cao was not strong enough.

After the battle with Nalu Bu, Cao Cao's troops basically collapsed.

Although the background of the Cao family and the reputation of Cao Cao himself were used to re-emerge, allowing the civil and military elites to vote, but the soldiers under Cao Cao's command are currently lacking.

Cao Cao is not a person who acts recklessly, and he will not be able to welcome the emperor back for a while, but Cao Cao believes that as long as he seizes the time to recruit soldiers, he can go to welcome the emperor back soon.

At this time, the envoy sent by Wei Tao arrived.

Wei Tao alone is not enough to welcome back the emperor, and it is impossible for Cao Cao alone to welcome back the emperor, but it is not impossible for the two to work together.

"Okay! Ziyu has such great righteousness, how can I, Cao Mengde, not respond? You are replying to your master, I will lead troops to Luoyang, and then enter Chang'an with Ziyu to welcome back the emperor!"

After hearing Han Hao's intentions, Cao Cao immediately cheered up, and soon laughed and said.

"No. But my lord once said that the people of Dong Zhuo's remaining party are now in a state of panic, and they might jump over the wall and attack Luoyang in a hurry. I heard that the general still has contacts with the important officials of the court, so I asked the general to send a letter to the court officials. When Dong Zhuo's remaining party attacked Chang'an, Let’s just say that we are just here for King Qin.”

Han Hao didn't dare to hide what Wei Tao said, so he hurriedly said it after answering.

"My lord once said that if the matter is not in danger, it is better to let the princes of the court temporarily pardon Dong Zhuo's crimes against the rest of the party, and wait until our two coalition forces welcome the emperor back, and then slowly plan it."

"Okay! If it wasn't for Ziyu, I would have made a few mistakes!"

Cao Cao is also extraordinary, but after a little thought, he understood what Wei Tao meant.

"Zi Yuguo is my man's pillar of talent! With Zi Yu here, my man will surely prosper one day."

Cao Cao received Wei Tao's message, so he quickly assembled the army, and then he personally led the troops to Luoyang, preparing to join Wei Tao and attack Chang'an together to welcome the emperor back.

And when Wei Tao sent Han Hao as an envoy, he had already followed Xun You's suggestion, ordered Qi soldiers, and set off with Xun You and Dian Wei.

As for Hanoi, Wei Tao handed it over to Yu Jin to guard it.

There was no talk all the way, but the actions of the two armies of Wei Tao and Cao Cao cannot be done quietly, and it has been known to other people for a long time.

Knowing that they wanted to welcome back the emperor at this time, all major forces in the world focused their attention on the two of them again, but this time, everyone including Yuan Shao didn't intend to join forces immediately.

Wei Tao and Cao Cao gathered in Luoyang. This time Wei Tao led 5000 troops and Cao Cao led [-] troops.

"I've seen my brother. I've been separated for so many years, but my style is still the same."

Wei Tao first smiled, and said to Cao Cao.

"However, now that Dong Zhuoyu's party is powerful, this time he still needs to work together with his elder brother, so as not to go back to the old days when the coalition forces wanted Dong."

"Of course."

Cao Cao nodded, also understood this reason.

"If the priority is determined, it will inevitably convince people. Moreover, the situation in Chang'an is not yet determined. The prince is in charge of state affairs, and Lu Bu is driving him. We acted rashly, thinking that he was aware of it. The current plan, we should talk about it in the past."

At this moment, a young man next to Cao Cao spoke.

"At present, Dong Zhuo's remaining party is led by Li Cui, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, and Niu Fu. Each of them leads an army ranging from [-] to [-] to [-] to as many as [-] to [-]. They should be regarded as strong enemies. If they do not have the help of the court, they should be Hey, how can you welcome back the holy driver?"

What this person said was reasonable, and what Xun You said had also been said to Wei Tao, so it can be seen that this person is not a tall man.

"Dare to ask brother, who is this?"

"This is Guo Fengxiao from Yingchuan, who is now a counselor in my mansion and participated in the military aircraft. Now he is coming with me to meet the emperor."

It turned out to be the 'ghost talent' Guo Fengxiao, Wei Tao couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Cao Cao's military and military skills are indeed complete.

"I don't know what Mr. Guo thinks now? My original intention is to join my brother and go straight to Chang'an. If your majesty is willing to do it, I will protect your majesty. If your majesty is not willing, then I will destroy the remaining party and make meritorious service."

Now that the name of a great man is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, Wei Tao's trip is more to be able to grasp Bingzhou in a legitimate way.

At that time, Cao Cao's trip was also for this purpose, but compared with Wei Tao, Cao Cao himself really hoped to welcome back the emperor, and then assist the emperor to help the big man, making a good story about the emperor and his ministers.

"The general's plan is very good. Now I will wait to see the emperor. He Tianzi has to get rid of Dong Zhuo's villain's hand to see him. Even if Wang Yun is unwilling, it is not good to refuse. At most, let me wait for the troops in Luoyang and take my relatives to Chang'an .”

Guo Jia smiled slightly and said.

"Chang'an used to be the imperial capital, and it was said that it was to welcome back His Majesty, but compared to Chang'an, His Majesty may not be willing to move the capital here again. This congratulation may allow one to get rid of Dong Zhuoyu's party, so as to get an official position, and even enter the court to listen to politics, but he wants to welcome back. Your Majesty is not allowed."

Wei Tao glanced at Cao Cao, but he saw that Cao Cao's expression was calm. Thinking about this, Guo Jia had already told him about it, and he was already prepared in his heart.

However, as Guo Jia said, even if it is just an official position, the strength of Wei Tao and Cao Cao can be rapidly increased, and this trip is not in vain.

After a slight silence, Wei Tao looked at Guo Jia again.

"I heard from the public office that Mr. Guo has the name of 'ghost talent'. Mr. Guo is resourceful and changeable. It must be more than just talking lightly. If you have something to say, please speak up."
