Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!
Chapter 714 A great victory
"Pfft!"
In the end, Liu Biao fell limply to the ground, completely lifeless.
"Liu Biao, you are really stupid!"
Xia Houyuan smiled coldly, turned around and ordered his soldiers to attack the city gate, preparing to capture Xiangyang City.
As the prefect of Jingzhou, Liu Biao had governed this place for decades, and the city was built very well.
Xia Houyuan spent a lot of effort to capture Xiangyang City, and killed all the defenders on the city wall, leaving no one alive.
Of course, Xia Houyuan did not forget it and ordered his soldiers to search for property in the city.
In just half a day, Xiangyang City had piles of coins, countless gold, silver and jewelry, as well as various precious antiques.
In addition, a large amount of gold was also found, which is extremely valuable, probably worth as much as a small gold mine.
Xia Houyuan gained a lot from this battle.
At this time, Cao Ang also happened to finish the battle outside the city and came on horseback. He looked at Xiahou Yuan and smiled: "General Xiahou, you have made great achievements this time!"
"Haha, this is why the young master sent people to support him, otherwise I wouldn't dare touch Jingzhou." Xia Houyuan said with a smile.
"General Xiahou is welcome. If General Xiahou hadn't arrived in time with his army, it would have taken a lot of effort to break through this place." Cao Ang said modestly.
"I wonder what the young master's plans are?" Xia Houyuan asked.
After hearing this, Cao Ang showed a look of excitement on his face and said: "General Xiahou, what my father means is that since we have captured Xiangyang City, we cannot return empty-handed."
"After all, we have just experienced a war, and there must be a serious shortage of food and grass, so we must replenish enough food and grass."
Xia Houyuan frowned slightly when he heard this. The Cao family invested a lot in this battle and suffered a lot in terms of food and grass.
According to Cao Cao's instructions, Cao Ang was going to take Xia Houyuan and others back to Yanzhou.
So now Xia Houyuan asked for more food and grass, and Cao Ang couldn't refuse.
Xia Houyuan thought for a moment and then said: "Master, to be honest, the thirty thousand troops and horses I brought this time have been severely damaged and are in urgent need of replenishment.
Moreover, we have just captured these cities, and there should be a lot of resources in the cities. You can definitely choose some suitable things to take away, such as weapons, armor, medicinal materials, or other things. "
"If you don't mind, Sir, I am willing to provide you with some supplies." Xia Houyuan said.
"I see."
Cao Ang nodded and said with a smile, "Thank you, General Xiahou."
Xia Houyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Cao Ang didn't waste any time and quickly left Xiangyang City and walked to his mansion.
After he returned, he summoned his advisers to discuss the matter.
Soon after, he decided to buy a batch of grain in the city and give it to Xia Houyuan as a reward for his unparalleled bravery in the battle.
"Everyone, what do you think of this matter?" Cao Ang asked.
Guo Tu stood up and said, "I agree with Young Master's plan. We really need supplies in Xiangyang City."
"Not only that, we also need to supply more food, weapons, armor, and even medicinal materials." Xun Yu said.
"Liu Biao has invested a lot in this expedition. If supplies cannot be provided in time, it may affect the morale of the army."
"Well, Wen Ruo is right to worry, so I am going to buy a large amount of food, weapons, armor, etc." Cao Ang nodded and said, "As for the medicinal materials, Wen Ruo will be responsible for it."
"Don't worry, young master, I will definitely handle it properly." Guo Tu assured.
"Ah."
Cao Ang nodded with satisfaction, glanced at everyone present and said, "You are all direct descendants of my Cao family. I hope you can work together to create a better future." "I obey my orders."
Under Cao Ang's arrangement, his men purchased a large amount of food, weapons and armor and delivered them to Xiahou Yuan.
After Xia Houyuan saw so much food, he could hardly hide his happy smile.
"General, the young master is so generous to us, we will have to work harder to kill the enemy and repay the favor." A lieutenant next to Xia Houyuan sighed.
"Humph, Master treats us well, we must be loyal." Xia Houyuan said solemnly.
"The devil general understands." Xia Houyuan's deputy general said respectfully.
At the same time, Cao Cao, who was far away in Xudu, also received the news.
He was overjoyed to learn that Cao Ang had successfully captured Xiangyang City in Xiangyang.
Immediately ordered Chen Deng to lead the army to continue the pursuit, and must destroy Liu Biao's remaining forces.
After receiving the order, Chen Deng led the army and quickly rushed towards Xiangyang.
At the same time, Cao Cao also asked Cheng Yu to lead a team of troops to support Cao Ang and cooperate with the latter to wipe out Liu Biao's remaining forces.
As Cao Cao's army continued to approach Xiangyang, he felt a little nervous because he didn't know whether Liu Biao was really killed by Cao Ang.
After all, his scouts didn't find much trace of Liu Biao along the way.
Fortunately, good news came from Cao Ang. Xiangyang City was captured, and Cao Cao's heart in his throat was immediately relieved.
He believed that Liu Biao had been dealt with by Cao Ang.
"Prime Minister, the general will ask for a battle and lead the cavalry to capture Xiangyang City." Le Jin said with cupped fists.
"No, you haven't recovered from your injuries. How can you go out to fight rashly?" Cao Cao shook his head and said, "I'd better go in person."
"I would like to ask the Prime Minister to allow me to go." Le Jin pleaded again.
Cao Cao pondered for a moment and finally agreed to Le Jin's request.
Le Jin led five hundred cavalry and followed Cao Cao to Xiangyang City.
In Xiangyang City, Cao Ang brought Xia Houyuan and others to a room.
Inside the house, there are all kinds of weapons, including countless weapons and armors, which are dazzling.
"General, I specially asked my servants to collect these. See if there is anything you like." Cao Ang pointed at the weapons and armor and said to Xia Houyuan.
"This. This is too much."
Xia Houyuan was stunned. He didn't expect Cao Ang to give him so many weapons and armors.
"General Xiahou, you are a general under my father, and you helped me defeat the enemy again this time, so you don't have to be polite to me." Cao Ang said with a smile.
After that, he found a sword, handed it to Xiahou Yuan and said, "This sword is just right for General Xiahou to use."
Xia Houyuan took it and found that the sword was very light. It was much lighter than an ordinary long sword. It was flexible when wielded and very sharp. It was very suitable for use as a weapon.
He took the sword and observed it carefully, and then said to Cao Ang: "Thank you, Master, for giving me the sword."
"Hahaha, General Xiahou, there is no need to be polite to me." Cao Ang said with a smile.
Although he was still young, he also knew etiquette and respected Xia Houyuan, a world-famous warrior, and did not dare to neglect him.
Xia Houyuan also admired Cao Ang very much and thought he had a good character, so the two had a good conversation.
After chatting for half an hour, Cao Ang suddenly said: "By the way, I heard that General Xiahou has a niece who is as beautiful as a flower. Can you recommend her to her?" (End of Chapter)
