"Sir, he is Xu Huang."
Dian Wei came over first and saw that Chen Zhou was safe and sound. He said with relief, "Here are the heads of Han Xian and the others."
Seeing three bloody heads held by Dian Wei in his hands, Chen Zhou felt uncomfortable for a while. He was not a battle-experienced general like Dian Wei, so he could not see these things.
"Put the heads away."
Chen Zhou said and looked at the man behind Dian Wei.
"Xu Huang, meet sir."
Xu Huang felt Chen Zhou's gaze and bowed first.
In fact, he didn't know who the gentleman was, but seeing that Dian Wei respected him so much, Xiahou Dun and Li Dian seemed to focus on this gentleman, so they could conclude that their status in Cao Ying should not be low.
Chen Zhou looked at the other person for a while, nodded and said: "After you go back, you can recommend him to my lord!"
"Thank you sir."
Xu Huang said gratefully, but it could be seen that this gentleman seemed to appreciate him a little.
"How's the situation?"
Chen Zhou asked again.
Li Dian said: "Kill all those who deserve to be killed, and there will be no more pursuers in the rear."
After the task was finally completed, Chen Zhou nodded and said: "Let's follow the front!"
The soldiers lit torches to illuminate their way.
Xu Huang and other surrenderers had all their weapons confiscated and followed Xiahou Dun.
Everyone went back in the direction agreed with Cao Cao.
——
The team moving the capital is still moving forward.
It was not until nightfall that it was difficult to travel, so Cao Cao ordered a rest.
But not long after they stopped, they heard a burst of movement from behind, and even saw the mountain fire reflecting the dark night. They were all shocked.
After the ambush, they began to worry. It turned out that there were really pursuers coming, and it was not Cao Cao who was deliberately trying to scare people.
"Cao Qing."
Liu Xie quickly called Cao Cao and asked, "What happened?"
Cao Cao looked in the direction of the mountain fire, and saw that the fire was particularly bright in the dark night, and said: "The people I sent to break up the rear started fighting with the pursuers. I don't know what the outcome will be. It's really worrying."
"It must be okay!"
Liu Xie said worriedly.
He was very afraid that if the people behind him could not stop the pursuers and Guo Bang and others came after him, he would not know what to do.
"It must be okay."
Cao Cao said with certainty.
But having said that, Cao Cao was actually very worried about Chen Zhou's situation and safety issues.
After all, after five thousand people were cut off, they had to face tens of thousands of enemies, so the gap in strength was a bit big.
Chen Zhou said he was going to use fire to attack, but the mountain fire started to burn, which means that the plan was successful and everything should be fine.
"It's best if nothing happens to you during the crossing."
Cao Cao was thinking.
After leaving Liu Xie, he went back to the rear army and sent people to inquire about the situation.
"Don't worry, my lord, the god of crossing is very clever and can predict events like a god. Since he is confident that he will be able to come back after breaking up," Xun You said calmly.
Guo Jia nodded in agreement: "I believe in Du Zhi."
They had already set up camp to rest and were no longer on the road. After waiting for about an hour, the scout finally came back and said that they had contacted Chen Zhou and the others. They had won a great victory and were not in any danger. They were on their way back.
"real?"
Cao Cao laughed heartily after hearing this.
After waiting for a while, Chen Zhou finally caught up with the large army and said: "Lord, great victory, Han Xian and three others were all killed by Lao Dian."
Dian Wei picked up the heads like a show off and said with a smile: "My lord, they are too weak. I can't even kill them fast enough."
"Well done Laodian!"
Cao Cao laughed and said: "Du Zhi has been busy for so long. He must be very tired. Go and rest quickly. By the way, these people..."
Chen Zhou said: "My lord does not need to show the emperor's head, just tell them that the pursuers were defeated by us. There is no need to deliberately tell them the specific situation, let them guess for themselves!"
"That's fine!"
Cao Cao nodded and said, "Quickly go and rest."
Chen Zhou was tired after working for so long, so he went back to the prepared tent to rest.
As for Xu Huang and others who surrendered, they were recommended by Li Dian, so this had nothing to do with him.
After settling down, Chen Zhou thought back to the scenes of so many dead people, but a certain fear in his heart was still difficult to overcome. The soul of a modern person merged into the body of an ancient person, and he finally had an uncomfortable reaction.
However, in this chaotic environment, you will get used to it after seeing the dead a few times. There will be plenty of time to adapt in the future.
"Let's rest first!"
Chen Zhou said to himself.
——
The next day.
After Chen Zhou woke up, he saw that Dian Wei had been ordered by Cao Cao to bring him some dry food for breakfast.
At this time, the whole army rose up.
They sat together eating dry food and drinking a little water to simply fill their bellies.
"Cao Qing."
Liu Xie said worriedly: "It's dawn, how about we rush on our way as soon as possible?"
He was afraid of death and being chased out by Guo Bang, and he almost became a frightened bird.
Cao Cao had no choice but to satisfy him, nodded and said: "Okay, let's keep going, but according to the current situation, it is impossible to go to Xiangcheng. I suggest going to Xu County, which is not far away, and is also within the scope of Yingchuan. A place south of Xu County More than a hundred miles away is Wancheng, which is Nanyang, not far from Jingzhou, and Xiangcheng is very close to Liang County and is more dangerous, what do you think, Your Majesty?"
"Then go to Xu County."
Liu Xie thought for a long time and agreed to Cao Cao's suggestion.
Anyway, we can move the capital wherever we go. As long as there is no danger and there is a way out, we can go anywhere.
He confidently believed that Liu Biao, who was also a member of the Han clan, would not ignore him and try to stay as close as possible to Jingzhou, which would be much more convenient.
"Go to Xu County!"
Cao Cao said loudly.
"Let him succeed."
Zhong Ji sighed.
Ding Chong said helplessly: "There is no way, we all have to rely on this person now, let's go!"
In desperation, everyone could only leave with the army that moved the capital.
Chen Zhou saw the direction in which the team was leaving and understood that the capital move was about to be completed successfully. He could also move to Xu County and start a peaceful life under Cao Wei's rule. As long as he survived the Battle of Guandu, everything else would be basically fine.
The Battle of Guandu was actually very easy to fight.
Yuan Shao will undoubtedly be defeated.
Even the Battle of Chibi is easy to fight.
Chen Zhou followed the team and walked for almost two days before finally arriving in Xu County.
Cao Cao ordered this place to be the new capital and renamed it Xudu. In order to stabilize the emperor and the ministers, he promised that as long as Henan Yin was managed well and Luoyang was rebuilt, he would move it back in the future.
The big pie is drawn first, and we will talk about when it can be realized later.
After deciding to move the capital, Cao Cao moved everything in Puyang and arranged a mansion for Chen Zhou in Xudu City, which was much larger than the one in Puyang.
At the same time, news spread that Cao Cao welcomed the emperor and moved the capital to Xu County, which shocked many princes.
In order to stabilize the situation, Cao Cao immediately summoned Chen Zhou and other advisers to discuss what should be done.
If they don't handle the impact well, they will be beaten by a group like Dong Zhuo.
