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

In Xu You's shocked eyes, Cao Ang came all the way to the other party.

"Really Uncle Ziyuan?" Cao Ang raised his hand to Xu You.

Xu You and Cao Cao were classmates and friends. According to their seniority, Cao Ang should indeed call You uncle.

It's just that Xu You has served under Yuan Shao for many years, and his status is now not as respected as the Cao family's father and son.

Cao Ang's call of uncle made the vain Xu You feel a little elated.

However, Xu You immediately returned to normal and said to Cao Ang: "I can't afford to call you an uncle, Major General."

"The young general is a new member of the Han Dynasty. Your Majesty, Cao Sima, is one person below ten thousand people. How can I deserve to be called an uncle?"

Cao Ang looked at Xu You's humble appearance and couldn't help but smile and said: "My father often mentioned my uncle in my ears before. He often lamented that under Yuan Shao's command, my uncle was like a pearl covered in dust."

"Yuan Shao is a mediocre leader. He makes many plans but few decisions. He has many advisers around him, but he cannot make good use of them. Uncle, you can be regarded as the most benevolent and righteous person by enduring him for so many years."

Xu You looked at Cao Ang who was talking eloquently, and was extremely surprised.

He knew before that Cao Ang was young and promising and had outstanding abilities.

But I didn't expect his ability to be so outstanding!
After analyzing this meal, even Xu You was a little shocked.

Because what Cao Ang said coincided with his own thoughts.

Originally, Xu You stayed with Yuan Shao because of his former classmates and his reputation as the fourth generation of the Yuan family.

But after so many years, Xu You only realized that Yuan Shao was a man with a cold nature.

No matter how well you treat him, he will not know how to be grateful and will only think that that is what you should do.

And over the years, Xu You has also realized that this Yuan Shao is a mediocre leader. If he hadn't cared about his past feelings, he would have run away long ago.

It was just what happened recently that made Xu You completely determined to run away.

It would have been a great achievement for him to recruit the Black Mountain Army as a foreign aid to resist Cao's army.

As a result, Wen Chou's mistakes did not lead to a decline in morale and a lack of morale in the army, so Yuan Shao took out his anger on Xu You.

How can this Xu You be human?
I don’t want to serve you anymore. If you don’t want me to stay here, I have my own place to stay!
Ever since, Xu You came to surrender to Cao Cao.

Seeing Cao Ang coming out to greet him barefoot, Xu You felt even more that his decision was right.

Cao Ang introduced Xu You into the camp and began to ask him: "I don't know why my uncle came to my place in the middle of the night."

In fact, based on Cao Ang's understanding of Xu You, he could naturally guess that the other party planned to defect to him.

But he didn't get a definite answer, so he couldn't make a conclusion.

When Xu You heard this, his face was a little embarrassed. He cupped his hands and said, "I was killed by a traitor and trapped by a mediocre master under Yuan Benchu's tent. If I stay here any longer, I'm afraid my life will be in danger!"

"In addition, Yuan Shao opposed the imperial court. Although he was a courtier, he was actually a traitor. As an important official of the Han Dynasty, he took the emperor's salary as his loyalty to the emperor."

Xu You said a lot of things in a grand and grand manner, talking about surrendering to the enemy and rebelling, which made him look taller.

Naturally, Cao Ang saw through it without telling him. He raised his hands to Xu You and said, "It is undoubtedly a great good thing for my uncle to abandon the darkness and turn to the light. I believe that when my class teacher returns to the court, my father will be very happy to see you, uncle." "That's right. Naturally, Brother Meng De and I have not seen each other for a long time, and speaking of it, I still miss him a little." Xu You said in a pretentious tone.

In fact, the friendship between Xu You and Cao Cao when they were young cannot be said to be very bad, but it cannot be said to be very good either.

After all, the Xu family was considered a wealthy family, so he naturally looked down upon the descendants of eunuchs like Cao Cao.

It was only because of his cultivation and the fact that the Cao family did have a certain status that the relationship with Cao Cao was not too tense.

After some pleasantries, Xu You asked Cao Ang: "Major General, I wonder if you have any plans for defeating Yuan?"

Cao Ang shook his head when he heard this and said: "The appearance of the Black Mountain Army was so sudden that I was not expecting it. I originally wanted to destroy Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan in one battle, but now it seems impossible."

When Xu You heard what Cao Ang said about the Black Mountain Army, his expression changed. After all, he was the one who found the Black Mountain Army.

"If Cao Ang knew that I was the one who found this Black Mountain Army, would he kill me to vent his anger?"

Xu You asked himself in his heart, and after struggling for a while, he still did not tell the story about the Black Mountain Army.

And Cao Ang did not hide it from Xu You, and continued directly: "The 10,000+ troops of Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan, plus the three 10,000+ troops of the Black Mountain Army, add up to so many people, and the daily consumption of food and grass is not even counted. number."

"Originally, I was thinking of finding the place where they were hoarding food and grass, and directly destroying them. However, after all this time, I still haven't found the place where the other party is hiding food and grass."

Xu You listened to Cao Ang's words, rolled his eyes, bowed to Cao Ang and said: "Young General, I am punished by death!"

"Why did uncle say this?" Upon hearing this, Cao Ang looked at Xu You in a daze, not understanding what the other party meant.

Although Cao Ang treated these people of the same generation as Cao Cao as an uncle, this was due to the etiquette of this generation.

Of these people he called uncles, only the Xiahou brothers and Cao brothers of the same clan would call him nephew in private when Cao Cao was present.

At other times, they are called major generals.

This is true for the Xiahou brothers and the Cao brothers, let alone others.

Xu You said awkwardly to Cao Cao: "It's all my fault. This Black Mountain Army was actually brought about by me."

Later, Xu You explained how he persuaded Zhang Yan to bring the Black Mountain Army to help.

When Cao Ang heard this, he couldn't help but laughed in surprise.

He had been thinking before, how could this Montenegrin army come to the battlefield.

Now that Xu You explained it like this, he understood.

When Cao Ang thought of this, he looked at Xu You and asked, "Uncle, do you know where the Black Mountain Army stores its food and grass?"

Xu You nodded proudly after hearing this: "Yes, I personally escorted this food and grass from Heishan, and now it is stored in Jijin City in Qinghe County!"

"Qinghe County?" Cao Ang was stunned when he heard this. He never thought that Yuan Shao and Zhang Yan would hide food and grass in Qinghe County.

Because when the two sides just started fighting, Cao Ang sent troops to capture Qinghe County.

As a result, we are now told that the enemy's food and fodder are placed in our own territory? (End of chapter)
