Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 551 Encountering Interception (Continued)

"My lord has an order, get out of the way and let the Han army pass!"

A loud shout came from a distance.

It was also passed into the ears of the soldiers on both sides who were in a stalemate.

The person galloping on horseback also caught everyone's eyes. It was Cao Cao's bodyguard commander, Xu Chu and Xu Zhongkang, who was also sent by Cao Cao.

"General Xiahou, my lord has an order not to obstruct the departure of the Han army!" Xu Chu said, "Generals of the Han army, my lord apologizes for this matter, and I hope you don't worry too much, this time is not my lord's intention! "

The previous words were addressed to Xia Houyuan, while the latter words were addressed to Zhao Yun and others.

"General Xu, what do you mean?"

Xia Houyuan was a little dissatisfied because of Xu Chu's last words.

"General Xiahou, I'm just conveying my lord's original intention. As for other things, I'm not in my consideration!" Xu Chu said.

He also told the truth, asked Xia Houyuan to get out of the way, and let the Han army leave. As for the following words, Cao Cao confessed to him without any deviation, and he was not used to lying.

Xia Houyuan also glanced at Xu Chu.

In the same way, he also understood Xu Chu's character, he would not tell lies, so he didn't care much about it.

Moreover, Cao Cao asked Xu Chu to come over to pass on the message, as if he was there in person, and he didn't let them continue.

thought here.

Xia Houyuan also glanced at Zhao Yun and the others before saying, "Let go!"

If Liu Qi hadn't been in the Han army, the obstacles he set up would have no effect. Even if there were secret arrangements, it would be difficult to wipe out the Han army. unattainable.

As for Zhao Yun and others, seeing Xu Chu's arrival and Xu Chu's words, they were also taken aback for a moment.

But didn't think much of it.

After all, they also knew that Cao Cao and others would definitely be able to guess that Liu Qi was not in the army, but they didn't know the exact whereabouts, so they didn't want to let go of a chance.

They were not worried that Cao Cao and others would discover Liu Qi's whereabouts.

One must know that Liu Qi's plan of escape was shocking even to them. It can be said to be bold and reckless. They would not have agreed to the decision if Liu Qi hadn't said it out himself.

Although it is difficult to find, once there is a mistake, then...

Xia Houyuan's order sounded.

Zhao Yun and the others also came back to their senses.

And the soldiers of the Wei army also stepped forward and carried away the horse barriers placed on the road, and many soldiers of the Wei army also spread out to the left and right to get out of the way.

"Thank you, General Xiahou, for sending me off!" Zhao Yun cupped his hands.

Although they are not afraid of going to war, it is the best thing to pass through safely, and the worst thing is to kill them.

"Hmph, I'm sorry to send you off!" Xia Houyuan said in a displeased manner.

You must know that this is an excellent opportunity, but it is also very uncomfortable to let Liu Bei, Sun Quan, Liu Qi and others secretly leave again and again.

Moreover, all of them disobeyed Cao Cao's order and dispatched troops from other places, just to encircle and suppress Liu Qi, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan.

However, none of them were stopped. As for stopping five thousand soldiers, it would not have any effect on Cao Cao's great cause. After all, the three most important people were not there. When they returned to their respective territories, they would lose money. Just a small number of soldiers and horses.

Regarding Xia Houyuan's words.

Zhao Yun and the others didn't pay too much attention.

What's more, Xia Houyuan didn't come here to send him off sincerely, but came here to make trouble.

He took more than [-] cavalry soldiers and passed through the middle of the road that the Wei army gave way to.

same.

He was also very vigilant. When passing through the middle, he didn't show any carelessness, and kept his eyes on the left and right sides to prevent Wei Jun from suddenly violently rising.

The more than [-] cavalrymen of the Han army also held their weapons tightly in their hands. If there was a slight mistake, they could directly enter the battle.

But Xia Houyuan didn't give up yet, he stared at the cavalry of the Han army passing through the middle of the road, as if they were looking for something, and watched carefully with the help of the bright moonlight.

However, soon, he gave up.

Because he saw the soldier who was dressed like Liu Qi but was leading Liu Qi's exclusive horse, it seemed that they were all deceived again.

Why again?
You must know that Liu Bei and Sun Quan left pretending to be scouts before, and they didn't care too much.

Before he cared, Liu Bei and Sun Quan had already lost track.

Although Liu Qi is different, it is similar.

At last.

Xia Houyuan also resisted the idea of ​​taking the opportunity to keep Zhao Yun and others behind, and it was difficult to succeed.

Looking at Zhao Yun and others, they led more than [-] Han cavalry to leave.

They have no chance.

"Go and let General Cao and the others lead their troops back to Chang'an!" Xia Houyuan ordered to the left and right.

He is not alone. Nine out of ten generals under Cao Cao's command are not far from this place, and he is just scouting the way to confirm whether Liu Qi is among the departing Han troops.

Once Liu Qi is inside, a signal will be sent to let the rest of the ambush army surround him.

Even with Zhao Yun and others guarding him.

They were also prepared to stop Liu Qi at all costs.

But without Liu Qi, it would be difficult to keep Zhao Yun and the others behind, and even if they could be stopped, it would be a huge loss, so the ambush army would be useless.

If they failed to stop Liu Qi and suffered heavy losses, they would not be able to explain to Cao Cao.

"promise!"

Both left and right handed over, and they rode away quickly, preparing to convey Xia Houyuan's order to the rest of the ambush army.

"Withdraw, return to Chang'an!"

Looking at the back of the departing Han army.

Xia Houyuan also gave the order to leave. After all, staying now is of no use, so he can only return to Chang'an.

Moreover, Cao Cao also needed an answer from him. Even if Cao Cao ignored it, it was still needed. They had exceeded their authority this time.

This is a heavy responsibility!
immediately.

Under the leadership of Xia Houyuan, many Wei troops who were in charge of intercepting here left here and rushed back towards Chang'an City.

And Xu Chu, who came to deliver the message, also followed the army and rushed back.

Simultaneously.

In other places that can be hidden, there are also several Wei armies, led by one or several generals of the Wei army, coming out of the hiding place and heading towards Chang'an.

If he was not prepared, how could Xia Houyuan lead his army alone to intercept the Han army on the main road? You must know that there are three fierce generals in the Han army, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Dian Wei, and he cannot stop it alone.

Moreover, the moonlight is too bright tonight, and the ambush army can't ambush around. Under the moonlight, it can be seen at a glance.

Therefore, the ambush army is still some distance away from the main road, but it can also be quickly supported.

The main thing is that many soldiers and horses can be hidden in those places, and it is not easy for the Han army to detect them.
