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

Cao Ang's expression suddenly changed, and he sneered, "Wenhe, you want to kill someone with a borrowed knife.

I tell you, this strategy won’t work.”

"My lord, what do you mean?" Jia Xu was panicked. Cao Ang's words were too scary.

"What do I mean? I know you are a loyal subject, so I chose to spare your life.

I'll give you one last piece of advice, don't do anything stupid." Cao Ang said sinisterly.

Jia Xu's whole body began to tremble.

Cao Ang turned around and said to Wang Yue: "Feng Xiao, you take 300 imperial guards to support Dian Wei and his men. I want to see who dares to defeat them!"

"My lord is wise!" Wang Yue immediately accepted the order.

"My lord, I want to go too!" Jia Xu said hurriedly.

"I said you are not allowed to go!" Cao Ang said firmly.

Jia Xu looked at Cao Ang with a sad face. He knew that Cao Ang didn't want to talk to him anymore, so he said, "I'll take my leave."

Jia Xu silently left the imperial study, leaving Cao Ang alone pondering there.

After a long while, Cao Ang sighed softly and murmured to himself: "Wenhe, I have tried my best, you should be careful."

Jia Xu walked out of the palace, secretly hating himself: "Cao Ang, you are really vicious. Aren't you afraid that I will expose your true face?"

Jia Xu thought he saw through Cao Ang. Cao Ang was a hypocrite who appeared kind on the surface but was extremely vicious in his heart.

Jia Xu was indeed a heroic figure. He recovered his composure in a short time and went back to arrange the soldiers to prepare for battle.

Cao Ang sat on the dragon throne, deep in thought.

"I have given you the last chance, I hope you can cherish it." Cao Ang murmured to himself.

Cao Ang had seen through Jia Xu's mentality, and he would never help Cao Cao.

Cao Ang has made up his mind to lead 50,000 elite troops to launch a surprise attack on Xuzhou tonight.

At the same time, he asked Zhao Yun to go to Xuchang and hand over the Xu County defense deployment map to Cao Cao.

"System, summon my two beloved ministers, Lu Bu and Guan Yu." Cao Ang immediately made the summons.

The system prompts: "Host uses the summoning card to successfully summon Lu Bu and gain Lu Bu's loyalty.

Currently, Lu Bu is waiting to be summoned. Please ask the host whether to summon him. "

"Call!" Cao Ang said without hesitation.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for gaining Lv Bu's loyalty. Lv Bu is currently waiting to be summoned, please wait."

Soon, the system prompted: "Host successfully summoned Lu Bu. Lu Bu is currently waiting to be summoned. Please wait."

"I finally got Lu Bu! Haha, I'm going to kill you this time!"

Cao Ang laughed wildly. Lu Bu was truly too powerful. Cao Ang had always felt that Guan Yu, Dian Wei, and Zhang Fei were some of the most powerful generals in the world.

But Lu Bu was much stronger than them, and he could be said to have crushed them all. Even Guan Yu couldn't beat him.

If Lu Bu were there, even if Yuan Shao sent out his entire army, they would be able to sweep the area.

Cao Ang was in a good mood as his plan finally succeeded.

Once Lu Bu came, Yuan Shu was finished. After Yuan Shu was challenged by Lu Bu, Yuan Shao must have gone crazy.

At that time, Yuan Shao would go to war with Cao Ang, and then Cao Ang could attack Yanzhou openly.

"Someone, come and summon Zhuge Liang to the throne!" Cao Ang shouted to the outside of the door.

"promise!"

Soon, Zhuge Liang came in a hurry: "I greet you, my lord."

"No need to be so polite, Kong Ming." Cao Ang gave him a false support.

"My lord, why did you summon me here?" Zhuge Liang was a little confused because it was already midnight.

Cao Ang smiled and said, "It's about Xuzhou. I have sent Wang Yue, who will assist generals such as Dian Wei to capture Xuzhou." "So it's about this matter." Zhuge Liang breathed a sigh of relief.

When Cao Ang heard what Zhuge Liang said, he felt more relieved. It seemed that his guess was right. Zhuge Liang was not worried about the situation in Xuzhou at all.

"Kong Ming, I want to ask you something." Cao Ang said.

"My lord, please speak." Zhuge Liang was very polite.

"As the nominal governor of Xuzhou, don't you know about the conspiracy between the Xuzhou nobles and Yuan Shao?
Why do we still let them mess around?" Cao Ang asked bluntly.

Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly and said, "Yuan Shao is a famous prime minister of the time.

Yuan Shao has many advisers under his command. How can I, a humble official, defeat them all? "

Cao Ang understood Zhuge Liang's concerns. Yuan Shao had many advisers under him, and Zhuge Liang was just one of them.

Moreover, Zhuge Liang’s current position is the governor of Xuzhou. If he rashly turns against Yuan Shao, I’m afraid the entire Xuzhou will be in chaos.

Zhuge Liang had no choice but to agree to Yuan Shao's request.

"Then what are you going to do? Are you really going to let the aristocratic families do whatever they want? This is related to the life and death of Xuzhou." Cao Ang asked again.

Zhuge Liang said: "My lord, the matter of Xuzhou still needs to be considered in the long run."

"Oh? Why?" Cao Ang asked.

Zhuge Liang explained: "Yuan Shu has been entrenched in Xuzhou for many years and has a very high prestige. If we intervene forcefully, we must take Xuzhou.

This would completely break off relations with Yuan Shu.

By then, the noble families in Xuzhou will definitely fight to the death.

Even if we win, Xuzhou will be seriously damaged. Then we will be in trouble."

Cao Ang nodded, Zhuge Liang’s analysis was correct.

However, Cao Ang did not agree with this reason. After all, Cao Ang was a time traveler, and he knew very well that the aristocratic families in Xuzhou would not surrender so easily.

The foundation of the Xuzhou family is very solid, and unless you have absolute strength, you can't do anything to them.

"I want to know the relationship between the Xuzhou family and Yuan Shao." Cao Ang asked in a different way.

Zhuge Liang frowned, he felt that Cao Ang was trying to cause trouble.

However, Cao Ang must have his considerations when asking this.

Zhuge Liang described in detail the relationship between the Xuzhou family and Yuan Shao, and finally said.

“As far as I know, the heads of Xuzhou’s noble families all belong to Yuan Shao.

They pay huge taxes to Yuan Shao every year. Yuan Shao will also protect them. "

After hearing this, Cao Ang snorted coldly: "Yuan Shao is indeed a thief with wolfish ambitions. He has even extended his hand to Xuzhou."

Zhuge Liang was speechless.

Cao Ang continued, "I remember that most of Yuan Shao's advisers were from aristocratic families."

"My lord is wise." Zhuge Liang said admiringly.

"In that case, the aristocratic families in Xuzhou cannot be kept!" Cao Ang said firmly.

"My lord, the power of the Xuzhou family is very great, and we should not act rashly." Zhuge Liang advised.

Cao Ang shook his head and said, “I have long known how powerful the Xuzhou family is.

But if they collude with Yuan Shao, I will never tolerate it."

Cao Ang remembered that in history Zhuge Liang was defeated in Xuzhou.

If Cao Ang wants to prevent history from repeating itself, he must eradicate the cancer of the aristocratic family.

"My lord, please forgive me for speaking frankly. The aristocratic families in Xuzhou are very powerful. If you touch the aristocratic families in Xuzhou, I am afraid there will be endless troubles.

My Lord, the Xuzhou nobles are colluding with Yuan Shao. I'm afraid Yuan Tan has known about it for a long time. Yuan Tan not only does not care about it now, but is killing people with borrowed knives. (End of this chapter)
