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

As the second son of the Yuan family, Yuan Xi naturally knows a lot about Lu Bu.

Moreover, Yuan Shao once commented on Lu Bu, saying that although this man was brave and foolhardy, he could be called a hero just by virtue of his unparalleled martial arts!

"Heroes like Lu Bu have surrendered to Cao Ang, so why shouldn't I, Yuan Xi, surrender to me?" Yuan Xi comforted himself in his heart, and then made up his mind.

I saw Yuan Xi kneeling down on one knee in front of Cao Ang, and said loudly: "Young general, after the show of Yong's future, you are the only one who will follow your lead!"

After Cao Ang heard Yuan Xi's answer, he smiled slightly and reached out to help him up.

At the same time, Cao Ang also comforted the other party and said: "Xianyong, since you have planned to join the imperial court, then everyone will be our own people in the future, so there is no need to be so polite."

Yuan Xi nodded when he heard this, and then said to Cao Ang: "Major General, please go and station yourself in Pingcheng, Xi'an. The seaside is humid, and it is easy to get sick if you station troops."

Cao Ang knew that Yuan Xi had good intentions, but at the moment, it was not time to enter Xi'an Pingcheng.

I only saw Cao Ang waving his hands and saying: "If I lead troops into Xi'an Pingcheng at this time, I am afraid that I will be discovered by Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang's spies. By then, they will definitely try their best to attack you. .”

"If my prediction is correct, Yuan Tan has almost 40,000 capable soldiers under his command. Yuan Shang is not as good as Yuan Tan, but he is almost the same."

"If the two of them work together, with the more than 10,000 people under your command and the troops I have brought, even if they can block their attack, I am afraid they will suffer heavy losses."

When Yuan Xi heard this, he fell silent.

Cao Ang continued to analyze: "In this current situation, I am only stationed at the seaside with my troops to prevent changes in Liaodong County."

"However, I will not fly the flag or tell others who is stationed here. In this way, even if Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang know that you have other troops stationed here, they will not act rashly."

"When the supporting army from the imperial court arrives, the two of them will no longer be able to cause any trouble!"

After listening to Cao Ang's words, Yuan Xi put his heart back in his stomach, cupped his hands towards Cao Ang and said, "Xian Yong, everything is subject to the arrangements of the Major General."

Cao Ang nodded when he heard this and said: "These days, you can just pretend that you don't know I am here. As for the soldiers who came here today, just leave them here. I will watch them for you to avoid them." Someone among them informed Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang."

"Yes!" Yuan Xi didn't hesitate at all and left all the more than a thousand people he brought here. He only took his close associates and returned to Xi'anping.

Cao Ang, on the other hand, led his troops and stationed themselves on a high slope not far from the seaside, while monitoring Yuan Xi's men.

In the next few days, as Cao Ang expected, among Yuan Xi's soldiers there were indeed spies planted here by Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang.

Those who wanted to report the news were all captured by Cao Ang's men and beheaded in public.

For a time, those who wanted to tip off the news did not dare to do it again.

At this time, Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang were both a little anxious.

In Xiangping City, Yuan Tan paced back and forth anxiously in his mansion.

After a while, Yuan Tan stopped, turned to look at the door, and said to himself: "What's going on? Why haven't any of the scouts who were sent out come back?"

After Guo Tu heard this, he comforted Yuan Tan and said, "My lord, don't worry. The Xi'anping area is Yuan Xi's territory after all, and the actions of those scouts will definitely be hindered."

After hearing Guo Tu's comforting words, Yuan Tan let out a long breath and then said: "But if I don't know who those people stationed at the beach are, I won't be able to take action against Yuan Xi." ah."

When Xin Pi on the side heard this, he said: "My Lord, if you want to completely control this Liaodong County, then Yuan Shang is your biggest opponent." "But, if you follow Yuan Xi before destroying it, If Yuan Shang fights decisively, it is very likely that Yuan Xi will benefit, so I think you should join forces with Yuan Shang first to destroy Yuan Xi."

Guo Tu still agreed with Xin Pi's suggestion.

He only nodded and said with a serious face: "That's a good statement. I'm just afraid that the unknown troops stationed in Xi'anping are Yuan Shang's men."

"If this is the case, I am afraid that when we and Yuan Shang attack Yuan Xi, we will definitely be betrayed by him. By then, we will be attacked from both sides, and Xiangping will be in danger!"

As Guo Tu finished speaking, the three of them fell silent.

After a while, Yuan Tan continued to speak: "Forget it, let's not act rashly until we find out where those soldiers came from."

At this time, the situation on Yuan Shang's side was similar to that on Yuan Tan's side.

Yuan Shang and Feng Ji were also worried that the troops stationed at the seaside would be Yuan Tan's people, so they did not dare to join forces with Yuan Tan for a while.

Because of this, Cao Anghe was given an opportunity.

……

At this time, Cao Ang was naturally not idle.

He wrote a letter and asked Huang Zhong to disguise himself and send him back to Luoyang overnight.

A few days later, Cao Cao, who was far away in Luoyang, received a letter from Cao Ang.

After reading the contents of the letter, Cao Cao began to make arrangements.

Previously, Cao Ang mobilized Zhang Liao and Guo Jia to go to Liaoxi County in order to attack the two Liaodong counties.

The two people now have entered western Liaoning and are undergoing repairs.

The letter Cao Ang asked Huang Zhong to send was also very simple. It was to ask the court for an edict to confer Yuan Xi.

Cao Cao did not waste any time and went directly to find Liu Bian, drafted the edict and handed it to Huang Zhong.

Huang Zhong asked Cao Cao awkwardly about those edicts: "My lord, should I send another envoy to Liaodong? After all, it is not appropriate for me, a military general, to deliver this edict."

Cao Cao laughed loudly when he heard this and said: "Don't worry, Han Sheng. Zixiu has already made arrangements. You take the edict and go to western Liaoning to find Wen Yuan and Feng Xiao."

"After you gather together, Fengxiao will be the envoy. You will be responsible for protecting Fengxiao's safety. Go to Yuan Xi's territory and give him the edict conferring his canonization!"

"That's it." Huang Zhong nodded, breathed a sigh of relief, and then rushed towards Liaoxi County without stopping.

Finally, he met Zhang Liao and Guo Jia in Liaoxi County as arranged by Cao Ang.

Zhang Liao and Guo Jia were very happy after seeing Huang Zhong and couldn't wait to ask about Cao Ang's situation. (End of chapter)
