Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

After Cao Ang obtained the information from Zhuge Liang, he turned his attention to Yuan Shao and Liu Yu.

Yuan Shao and Liu Yu had just captured Jingzhou and were resting to recover their strength.

Liu Yu and Yuan Shao were also not idle. They were both actively preparing to deal with Cao Ang's attack.

What Yuan Shao is most worried about now is that Cao Ang will raid Yanzhou.

If Yanzhou is lost, the north will be in danger.

So Yuan Shao had to be prepared for defense.

Liu Yu's situation was a little easier. His hometown was Qingzhou, and Cao Ang's strength could not grow in Qingzhou.

As for why Cao Ang did not attack Jizhou, it was because Jizhou had a special geographical location and was easy to defend but difficult to attack.

At the same time, Jizhou was a vassal state of Youzhou. If Cao Ang's large army entered Jizhou, it would certainly be counterattacked by the Youzhou families.

Cao Ang did not intend to take this risk for the time being, because the aristocratic families in Jizhou had a strong foundation. Unless they united to fight against Cao Ang, it would be difficult for Cao Ang to swallow up Jizhou in a short period of time.

Cao Ang set his sights on Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao was Cao Ang's number one enemy, and Cao Ang would never allow anyone to stop him from dominating the world.

Cao Ang's goal was to unify the world, and Yuan Shao was the first stumbling block who had to be eliminated.

Cao Ang felt that he should cause some trouble for Yuan Shao so as to attract Yuan Shao's hatred.

Cao Ang decided that this time he would give Yuan Shao a hard time.

Cao Ang ordered Zhang Liao, Chen Gong and other advisers to organize an army and secretly ambush near Yingchuan.

After Xun You, Ju Shou, Tian Feng and Guo Tu got the news, they all felt that Cao Ang had gone crazy.

This behavior is too unstable.

"My lord, your action this time is too reckless. If something goes wrong, the losses will be heavy." Ju Su was the first to remind.

Tian Feng agreed and said, "My lord, we think you shouldn't do this.

After all, the lord is a relative of the Han royal family. Once the action is exposed, it will probably affect morale.

Besides, you have already seized Hebei and Jizhou, so there is no need to be so hasty. Please be cautious, my lord."

Ju Su and Tian Feng had their reasons for worrying. Liu Xie was the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and Cao Ang was forcing him to rebel.

This was a heinous crime of killing one's brother and one's father. Most people couldn't bear it, let alone Cao Ang.

Ju Shou and Tian Feng both thought that Cao Ang had lost his mind.

"My two dear ministers, I have already thought about this matter a long time ago." Cao Ang said with a smile.

"By doing this, I can not only delay time and let Yuan Shao and Sun Ce fight each other, but also get rid of Liu Bei, the scourge.

While Yuan Shao and Sun Ce are fighting, we just sit on the mountain and watch the fight.

As long as Yuan Shao destroys Sun Ce, we can take down Yuan Tan."

Ju Shou and Tian Feng understood Cao Ang's intention and secretly thanked themselves for not following Cao Ang in making trouble.

"My lord is wise!" Ju Su and Tian Feng said in unison.

Cao Ang said: "Now that the matter has been finalized, you guys should go and make arrangements. I don't want to wait any longer and have more troubles."

"Yes." Ju Su and Tian Feng took the order and left.

While Cao Ang was planning conspiracies against Yuan Shao and Sun Ce, a war between Sun Ce and Yuan Shao broke out.

As soon as Sun Ce's army captured Xiangyang, it was sent by Sun Ce to Nanjun to support Huang Zhong.

But who would have thought that Sun Ce's army would encounter Yuan Shu soon after arriving in Nanjun.

Yuan Shu was a greedy and selfish villain. When he saw the large amount of food and supplies in Sun Ce's army, he became evil-minded.

Yuan Shu immediately led his army to surround Sun Ce's army and declared that he would capture Sun Ce and Sun Quan alive. Sun Ce was furious and immediately mobilized his troops to confront Yuan Shu. The two sides were on the verge of a fight and there was a possibility of a fight at any time.

Sun Ce looked at Yuan Shu in front of him and sneered, "Yuan Shu, you are so bold to dare to intercept my army."

Yuan Shu laughed loudly and mocked: "Sun Ce, didn't you succeed by a surprise attack? How dare you still shout at me?"

"Hmph! You bandits are worthy to compare with me." Sun Ce sneered.

"Stop talking nonsense and surrender if you know what's good for you. I might spare your life." Yuan Shu shouted.

Sun Ce said with disdain: "Yuan Shu, you are stupid? How dare you threaten me?"

"Okay, let's see how powerful you, Sun Ce, are. Kill him!" Yuan Shu was furious and ordered his soldiers to charge.

Sun Ce was not afraid at all and rushed towards the enemy.

"Kill!" Sun Ce roared.

Sun Ce's bravery frightened Yuan Shu. How could this guy become so fierce? He was simply a demon.

Sun Ce and Yuan Shu led their respective armies to fight each other.

Sun Ce knew that his army had just experienced a series of battles, the soldiers were exhausted, and they were short of food, weapons and equipment, so they were simply unable to resist the attack of Yuan Shu's army.

Sun Ce knew that he could not escape death today.

After Sun Ce figured it out, he shouted, "Brothers, today we will fight Yuan Shu. If we can get someone to take us down with us, we'll win."

When the soldiers under Sun Ce heard what Sun Ce said, their blood immediately boiled.

"Kill!" Sun Ce's soldiers roared and rushed towards the enemy, waving their swords and spears.

The soldiers under Yuan Shu were not expecting Sun Ce to be so brave and were frightened.

The soldiers under Sun Ce's command became more and more courageous as they fought, constantly tearing apart the formation of Yuan Shu's army, making it impossible for them to unite together.

When Yuan Shu saw this, his face changed drastically. Sun Ce was so powerful that all his troops were killed and dispersed.

Sun Ce seized this opportunity, exerted his might and killed several enemy generals.

When Yuan Shu saw Sun Ce's blood-thirsty look, he was terrified and retreated in a hurry.

“Chase!” Sun Ce shouted when he saw Yuan Shu fleeing, and led his army to chase Yuan Shu.

Cao Ang was also waiting for Xu Shu's action.

After receiving Cao Ang's order, Xu Shu immediately summoned his advisers and staff to discuss the matter.

"Gentlemen, you should know the lord's orders." Xu Shu said calmly.

No one expressed anything, just nodded to show that they understood.

"Then we will follow the orders given by our lord," said Xu Shu.

"Mr. Yuan Tan, our lord asked you to command us. What do you want?" Pang Tong stood up and asked.

Xu Shu smiled and said, "I am going to Yecheng. Would you like to go with me?"

Everyone took a deep breath. Xu Shu was really bold. They were all smart people and understood Cao Ang's intention immediately.

Xu Shu continued, “The Yuan family is very powerful.

If the lord had not been prepared, he would have been completely devoured by Yuan Shu. But the lord had already made plans, and although Yuan Shu was powerful, he could not turn the tables. "

Xu Shu's words shocked everyone. Cao Ang was indeed well-prepared and worthy of being the wisest emperor.

"Since the lord has made the arrangements, we must obey them." Ju Su said respectfully.

Ju Shou was Cao Ang's most trusted minister, and Cao Ang's arrangements were generally left to Ju Shou.

Ju Shou was used to it. He felt that he was an excellent prime minister and it was the best thing for him to assist Cao Ang, a wise king. (End of this chapter)
