Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 538 Arriving in Xianyang
Xianyang, the imperial capital of Qin.

In Wulidi outside Xianyang, there is a simple camp.

however.

The flags flying in the camp did not represent the flags of the Wei army, but black flags, but in the center, there was a big black flag embroidered with the word "Liu" in gold.

And this camp.

It is also the camp of the Han army, the Han army from Chengdu.

Two days have passed since Liu Qi led the army to leave Chengdu. With the addition of the whole cavalry team, the speed of the journey is relatively fast. In the evening of this day, they also rushed to the border of Xianyang.

There is an invitation from Cao Cao.

And Cao Cao should also have orders.

Therefore, they did not encounter any obstacles in Cao Cao's territory, and the road was unimpeded, but there were often reports from the Wei army nearby.

Liu Qi didn't drive them away either.

After all, even though Cao Cao invited and agreed to lead an army into Cao Cao's territory, it is normal for him to be under surveillance.

It would be strange if there were no surveillance.

If it were him, he would do the same thing. Letting someone lead an army into his territory, and it is still a hostile relationship, is a dangerous thing, and a careless one may lead to a big mistake.

but.

Come all the way.

Liu Qi also did not choose to enter the city, but chose to set up camp outside. After all, once he entered the city and the city gate was closed, many things could not be controlled by him.

It is also the safest way to set up camp outside.

Moreover, the tents that were built were all simple tents, which were easy to dismantle without trouble.

In the main account.

Liu Qi, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Jia Xu, and Dian Wei also got together after dinner.

Now that they have reached Xianyang, they will be able to reach Chang'an in the past, which is also their destination this time, so they need to be vigilant.

You must know that there are no less than 20 Wei troops stationed there.

Once Cao Cao has any malicious intentions, they will become very dangerous. Even with Cao Cao's verbal promise, they cannot take it lightly.

"My lord, our army will be able to arrive in Chang'an tomorrow, and the state funeral will be held in the morning of the day after tomorrow. During this period, we have to take precautions. This subordinate thinks that we can send more than ten soldiers to check outside to prevent any accidents. It’s better to deal with it in advance!” Jia Xu stood up and said.

"Subordinates wait for second!"

Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong also stood up and echoed Jia Xu's suggestion.

Now that they have entered Cao Cao's territory, they have not sent any scouting report before, so as not to cause any misunderstanding.

But now it is different.

It is also necessary to have some information in order to be able to make arrangements.

Liu Qi pondered for a moment, rubbed his chin and said, "Nowadays there are many Wei army spies outside, and it is not easy to send them secretly. Moreover, if there is any change in the Wei army stationed in Chang'an, then our army's Secret agents will also come to report!"

You know, in Chang'an, there are still their spies.

And before coming, there was also an order to let Chang'an secret agents keep an eye on Wei Jun's movements, and how could they be unprepared when they came to Cao Cao's base camp.

If that's the case, he wouldn't have come to this day, and he didn't know how many times he died.

heard.

Jia Xu shook his head and said, "My lord, the Wei army won't stop them if we just send more than a dozen people, and don't you think it's more appropriate to have one light and one dark, let alone send a spy report to guard the vicinity , it will be easier to understand the surrounding situation!"

"We must know that what we are least worried about is the Wei army stationed in Chang'an, but the Wei army in other places. After all, the transfer of the Wei army in Chang'an requires the consent of King Wei, and it is easy to be discovered. In addition, during the state funeral, Chang'an Soldiers and horses will not be easily mobilized, after all, King Qi and King Wu will lead their troops to arrive!"

"It's just to prevent Wei Wang's subordinates from secretly mobilizing troops from other places!"

After listening to Jia Xu's analysis.

Liu Qi also fell silent.

I have to admit that what Jia Xu said is quite reasonable.

If Cao Cao mobilized troops in Chang'an, wouldn't that just tell you clearly that it would be bad for you, especially when he, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan were about to arrive in Chang'an, if there were any changes in Chang'an's soldiers and horses, it would not matter. May not arouse suspicion.

But it would be different if soldiers and horses were secretly mobilized elsewhere, and it would not be easy to be discovered.

Even if you believe that Cao Cao will not have any thoughts during the state funeral.

But the defensive heart is indispensable.

Cao Cao's inability to do so does not mean that his subordinates will not have ideas. You must know that Cao Cao's subordinates are not easy to get along with.

What's more, Cao Cao represents the interests of his subordinates.

thought here.

Liu Qi didn't hesitate any longer, and said, "So, we will send twenty scouts to observe within a radius of five miles. After all, this is the territory of King Wei. If it is too far away, it may cause some dissatisfaction. It's just that within five miles Be vigilant inside, even if you think about it, you won't have any words!"

"promise!"

Jia Xu has no objection to this.

He also knew that this place was not their territory, so it was okay to send out some scouts to operate in a small area, but if it was bigger, it might cause unnecessary troubles.

They were vigilant about Wei Jun's actions.

At the same time, Wei Jun will also be on guard against them.

Even if they don't have many soldiers, they can do a lot of things once there is turmoil.

It can be said that they have scruples about each other.

But before the matter is clear, they will still be very harmonious on the surface, at least in the eyes of outsiders, they will respect each other as guests.

"We just need to be vigilant about this matter, and we don't need to make too much fanfare. Besides, we have already arrived here, and Wei Jun has not made any moves. Presumably, he will not make any moves during the state funeral!" Liu Qi pondered for a while, and said. .

After all, they will be able to reach Chang'an tomorrow.

Once in Chang'an, there will be even less movement.

You must know that they were all invited by Cao Cao.

Doing something to them in Chang'an will only make people in the world look down upon them.

What's more, there are some things that everyone knows well. Under such circumstances, Wei Jun will not take any actions, which will only make him, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan unite.

At least if Wei Jun chooses to do it in Chang'an.

The three of them will definitely join forces to resist and deal with the Wei army together. After all, this is related to their safety. Even if they have hatred, they will temporarily put it down and wait until the safety is relieved.

After scanning the crowd, he continued: "So, let's go down and rest. In the morning of tomorrow, we will continue to march and rush to Chang'an!"

"promise!"

Zhao Yun and others also stood up and cupped their hands.

Then he also turned and left.

As everyone left.

Calm was also restored in the camp.
