    However, after Li Ji laughed for a while, he suddenly frowned again. After all, his mood was ups and downs one after another, and his mind was not clear at the moment. After thinking about Xu Rong's strategy for a while, he felt a little confused.

    "General Xu, why don't you withdraw your troops to Hongnong, which is closer to Chang'an? In this way, when these three people are fighting the most fiercely, our army can fight back quickly with lightning speed."

    "My lord, it is precisely because Hongnong is too close to Chang'an. If we withdraw our troops here, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of Cao Cao, Wen Han, and Lu Bu. How can they let go and fight. And now  Chang'an has suffered from continuous wars, and it is not within the sphere of influence of Cao Cao and Wen Han. If the two men finally win, they will definitely take the emperor and the ministers of the court to Yanzhou, Bingzhou, or the Guanzhong area to better control the court.

    ??And Beidi and Feng Yi are exactly where their troops and horses must pass on their way back. Our troops and horses are guarding there, and it is difficult for them to fly!  This is the only way to be foolproof.  "

    "General Xu is thoughtful and thoughtful. If it weren't for your reminder, I wouldn't have woken up yet. So, according to your plan, we will withdraw our troops to the north, Feng Yi!"

    "Slow down, my lord! Just now, General Xu only expected Cao Cao and Wen Han to compete for victory. What if Lu Bu wins in the end?"

    Song Guo realized that Xu Rong seemed to have ignored Lu Bu, who had unparalleled courage in the world, and asked Xu Rong anxiously.  Xu Rong had a cold look on his face and responded with a cold snort.

    "Huh? Lu Bu is just a tiger and a wolf. Even with Chen Gongtai as his assistant, there is little chance he can defeat Cao Cao or Wen Han!!"

    Lu Bu is the enemy of the entire Liangzhou Military Command. If he hadn't been so obsessed with it that he was knocked unconscious by a woman and killed Dong Zhuo, how could the Liangzhou Military Command be in the situation it is today.

    Li Jiu seemed to agree with Xu Rong's remarks and nodded.

    "Lu Fengxian only has personal courage and is not in serious danger. In today's battle, it can be seen that Cao and Wen have many strong generals under their command, which are enough to deal with Lu Fengxian. And in terms of city government and strategy, how can Lu Fengxian be the opponent of these two people."

    In Song Guo's mind, the figures of Dian Wei, Guan Yu, and Xu Chu during today's battle could not help but reappear. His mind suddenly trembled. After bowing his hands to Li Ji, he returned to his seat and no longer  speak.

    There was no objection at all, so Li Cui finalized the plan to withdraw his troops back to the north and Feng Yi.  In the audience, Zhang Xiu, who had not said a word, his eyes continuously emitted strange lights.  In the North, their Zhang family has a very high reputation and has won the hearts of the people and the support of wealthy families from various factions.  If Li urged his troops to withdraw to the north, this would be a good opportunity for the Zhang family to invade.

    At the same time, inside Chang'an City, outside Weiyang Palace.  Following the eunuch's announcement, Cao Cao led Dian Wei into the hall first, followed by Lu Bu and Chen Gong, and Wen Han and Zhao Yun walked last.  A group of people walked into the hall one after another. In addition to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty who was sitting on the dragon throne, the servant Zhu Jun and the master Yang Biao stood on the left and right sides of the hall. When they saw the figures of Cao Cao and Wen Han, their faces changed.  They were all excited with bursts of ecstasy, thinking in their hearts that with these two people here, there was hope for the revival of the Han Dynasty!

    ¡°Long live my emperor!!!¡±

    Cao Cao cupped his hands and held the ceremony, knelt down on one knee, and went to see Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty. Lu Bu, Wen Han and others also paid homage and met the emperor.  Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty saw that Cao Cao and Wen Han were not like Dong Zhuo, Li Cui, Guo Si and others in the past. They had no eyes for etiquette, did not kneel before the emperor, and did not know the dignity of the emperor and his ministers.  The two of them had done their best to respect the etiquette of a monarch and his ministers, and even Lu Bu's arrogance had been somewhat restrained. This was the first time Lu Bu had knelt down since he rescued him.

    "Three beloved ministers, please come up quickly. If it weren't for the three beloved ministers, I would still be in the hands of the traitor Li Cui, suffering all kinds of torture. If you can care about the Han Dynasty, you are loyal ministers. In fact, it is me.  Fortunately!"

    Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was very excited. He stepped down from the dragon chair and quickly came to Cao Cao. He helped Cao Cao up and looked at Cao Cao with his eyes filled with emotion and hope.  At this time, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty felt as if he had been in endless darkness for a long time, and then encountered a bright light that dispersed the darkness around him.  Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty almost cast his eyes on Cao Cao. As for Lu Bu and Wen Han, he only glanced at them briefly and then withdrew his gaze.  The importance of the three of them in the mind of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was already very obvious.

    Wenhan seemed to have expected this, and his expression was dull.  Lu Bu's face suddenly darkened, his bloody eyes shot out with bursts of sharp light, and he stared at Cao Cao's back, like a tiger that had been snatched away by another tiger.

    Zhu Jun and Yang Biao saw this, and Zhu Jun pretended to cough to remind Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty.  Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty finally came to his senses and quickly tried to comfort Lu Bu and Wen Han with kind words.  Wen Han returned the gift indifferently and held his hand, while Lu Bu had a cold face and would not have gone to the ceremony if Chen Gong hadn't given him several hints.

    "Three dears, you have done a great job in rescuing me, and I deserve a heavy reward!! Cao Aiqing, I grant you the title of?As the Grand General of Jianwei and Grand Sima, Lu Aiqing, I will grant you the title of General of Fujun, and Wen Aiqing, I will grant you the title of General of Hussar, and each will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold, fifty beauties, five treasures, and a wishful jade belt.  Ten items.  "

    The positions of Grand Sima and Hussar General were originally those of Li Cui and Zhang Ji. Now Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was not controlled by them, so of course he took back his official positions.  Cao Cao, Lu Bu and Wen Han bowed and thanked each other.  Among the three people's rewards, Cao Cao's reward was the heaviest. Although Lu Bu was unwilling to accept this, Cao Cao already had heavy troops stationed in the city, and Wen Han had always been at odds with him. Now that things have come to this, even though he has great power.  Resentment can only be suppressed.

    After the reward, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty praised Cao Cao, Lu Bu and Wen Han one after another, and then cast a look at Yang Biao.  Yang Biao understood in his heart and suddenly walked out and said politely.

    "Your Majesty, although Chang'an is guarded by Cao Sima, Wen Guanjun, and Lu Wenhou, Li Jie's bandit army is still outside the city. The urgent task now is to come up with a strategy to defeat the enemy early and resolve the crisis in Chang'an."

    "Don't worry, Taifu Yang. With three of us here, Li will not cause any trouble if he rushes the rebel army. If he dares to lead the army to attack, I will have a way to defeat the enemy."

    Cao Cao exuded an inexplicably powerful aura, as if he could control the overall situation in his hands. His posture as a born hero even shocked Yang Biao and Zhu Jun.

    But Lu Bu heard it extremely harshly. Cao Cao seemed to be anti-customer, as if he had become the leader of the three forces in Chang'an.  As for Wen Han, he raised his eyebrows and thought to himself that Cao Mengde was really getting carried away.

    "With Cao Sima here, I can rest easy."

    After hearing this, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty suddenly showed a smile on his face. The anxiety he felt in the past had already flown out of the sky with the arrival of Cao Cao.  It is as if Cao Cao is believed to be the invincible protector of the Han Dynasty, who can eliminate all traitors and restore the Han Dynasty to the right path.

    Cao Cao looked confident, and the coalition forces of Cao and Wen had defeated Li Jun earlier.  At that moment, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty felt a little more at ease. Ever since he was kidnapped by Dong Zhuo to the western capital Chang'an, and later Dong Zhuo was killed by Lu Bu, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty had always wanted to move the capital back to the eastern capital Luoyang, but how could Li Cui get what he wanted?  , placed Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty outside his sphere of influence, and deliberately found various excuses to shirk it.  Therefore, the matter of moving the capital has been delayed.  Now that Cao Cao has arrived, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty once again had the idea of ??moving the capital. Just when he was about to propose it, Yang Biao seemed to know his intentions and glanced at Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, indicating that he could not do it for the time being.  Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty regarded Yang Biao as a close minister and knew that there must be a reason for his move, so he suppressed his thoughts for the time being. After a few words of comfort with Cao Cao, Lu Bu, Wen Han and others, he asked them to kneel down first.

    After Cao Cao, Lu Bu, Wen Han and others left Weiyang Palace, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty turned his attention to Yang Biao.  Yang Biao bowed his hands in salute and spoke attentively.

    "Your Majesty, Li's army has not retreated yet. Although the three forces of Cao Cao, Lu Bu, and Wen Han are harmonious on the surface, they are secretly wary of each other. If your Majesty wants to move back to the eastern capital of Luoyang, you need to choose one side first, and then order the rest.  Both sides must stop Li Jie's army, so that everything will be safe."

    "Taifu Yang has thought very carefully. So, which force does Taifu Yang think I should choose?"

    Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty calmed his expression. Although he was young, his deep eyes looked a bit mature.  These nearly ten years of torture made this young emperor grow up rapidly. If the Han Dynasty had not become terminally ill, perhaps he would have been a talented emperor.

    Yang Biao trembled in his heart. He knew very well that in fact, from the performance of Emperor Han Xian just now, Emperor Han Xian had already made a choice.  Asking him was just going through the motions.

    "L¨¹ Fengxian has a bad reputation. He is a slave with three surnames and has betrayed his master many times. This man rescued him with ulterior motives. Although Wen Bufan has a reputation of being loyal to the emperor and protecting the country, he came from a poor family. The current situation was chaotic. Most of the princes came from proud families. This man  His origin destined him to be rarely supported by the princes, and Cao Mengde"

    Speaking of Cao Cao, Yang Biao suddenly paused and silently observed the expression of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty. Sure enough, when Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty heard Yang Biao mention Cao Cao, his eyes burst out with intense light.  At this point, Yang Biao was already very sure about the person Han Xian Emperor wanted to choose.

    "He is of the Cao family line, starting from his grandfather Cao Teng and his father Cao Song, both of whom were important officials in the court. The Cao family was one of the most powerful families in the world. Cao Cao had the courage to assassinate Dong. In the past, he gathered righteous troops to conquer Dong's thieves.  It can be seen that he has great talent and great strategy. Now, he has gained the land of Yanzhou, and has two hundred thousand elite soldiers under his command. They are all heroes and advisers. If the emperor chooses him, there is hope for the revival of the Han Dynasty."

    The corners of Emperor Xian's mouth turned up slightly, and even Yang Biao felt the same way. This made Emperor Xian of Han even more convinced that his previous choice was right.  Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty nodded repeatedly, with a rare happy smile on his face.

    "What Yang Taifu said is very much in line with my wishes. In this case, I hope Yang Taifu will go on my behalf and explain this matter to Cao Sima."

      "Old minister, I will definitely live up to the trust entrusted by the Holy One!"

    Yang Biao bowed his hands and bowed again. After Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty gave him a few words of advice, Yang Biao withdrew from Weiyang Palace.
