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

"You idiot, you still want to live? You want to drag our lord to death with you!" Cao Ang cursed angrily.

Xu Shu was stunned. Only then did he realize that he had indeed committed a serious taboo.

Cao Ang is the emperor's uncle and Cao Cao's cousin. If Cao Ang is dragged down by Xu Shu, Cao Cao will definitely not let it go. By then, Xu Shu's family will also be finished.

Xu Shu was terrified.

Cao Ang continued, "Do you think your life is more valuable than my gold?

You either surrender your military power or die. You choose one."

Xu Shu swallowed hard. Only now did he truly realize how terrifying Cao Ang was.

He originally thought that he had grasped Cao Ang's lifeline, but he didn't expect that he was still too young.

"I am willing to hand over my military token! Please, my lord, please bypass me."

Xu Shu finally decided to hand over the military token. His family was now under the jurisdiction of Yanzhou, and he could guarantee the safety of his family.

"You're smart! I will take care of your family for you." Cao Ang took the military command from Dian Wei with a smile.

"Thank you for your grace." Xu Shu said respectfully.

Cao Ang opened the military token and took a look at it. After finding that there was nothing wrong with it, he put it away.

Xu Shu was now extremely disheartened; his plan had completely failed.

"Come here, send Xu Shu away from Yanzhou!" Cao Ang ordered.

"Yes!" The guards on both sides escorted Xu Shu, preparing to send him back to Yanzhou.

"Wait!" Cao Ang called out to the soldiers escorting Xu Shu, "I'll give you three breaths of time to retreat quickly. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences."

Dian Wei, Lu Bu and others did not expect Cao Ang to use this trick.

"Yes, sir!" Dian Wei saluted Cao Ang and led his troops to retreat.

The rest of the soldiers followed suit, knowing that Cao Ang could do what he said.

After seeing all the enemy troops withdraw, Cao Ang ordered Zhao Yun to lead the army to surround the luxuriously decorated carriage.

"Are you Xu Shu?" Cao Ang asked, staring at Xu Shu.

Xu Shu lowered his head: "I am Xu Shu!"

"You are so brave that you dare to lie to me!" Cao Ang shouted angrily.

Xu Shu knew that Cao Ang had misunderstood, and quickly said, "My lord, I did not lie to you. I just didn't want to make you worry."

Cao Ang snorted coldly, “If you weren’t so handsome, I would have killed you long ago.

Xu Shu, I see that you have an extraordinary appearance, and you must be both civil and military.

After returning this time, I will go to Imperial College to study first.

I hope to see you in the Imperial College in the future. If you fail to get in, hehe, you should know what will happen to you. "

Xu Shu felt that Cao Ang's eyes were full of murderous intent, and sweat broke out on his forehead. He said tremblingly: "I will remember the lord's teachings!"

"Very good. Xu Shu, you can go now." Cao Ang waved his hand.

Xu Shu breathed a sigh of relief, quickly got off the carriage and got inside.

The curtains were lowered and the coachman drove the horses forward.

Cao Ang smiled at Dian Wei and said, "Zhong Yun, you did a good job!"

"My lord, I am also acting according to your instructions." Dian Wei said with a smile.

Cao Ang said to Xiahou Yuan, Huang Zhong, and Zhang Liao beside him: "The four of you will follow me to Puyang!"

The four generals all showed excitement; it was finally their turn to show their skills.

Inside the hall of Yanzhou Governor's Mansion.

Cao Hong knelt before Cao Cao and said, "My lord, Xu Shu is such a wretch that he is secretly communicating with Cao Ang.

He has completely forgotten the kindness of his lord. I suggest that we immediately capture Xuzhou, arrest Xu Shu, and present him as a prisoner to Cao Ang."

Cao Cao frowned, he was just thinking about this matter.

His current military strength far exceeds that of Cao Ang, but if he rashly sends troops to attack Xuzhou, he will surely suffer heavy losses. The price is too high.

Cao Cao had to consider this plan carefully. Seeing that Cao Cao did not speak, Cao Hong tried to persuade him again, "My lord, although Cao Ang is a relative of the Han Dynasty, he is a king of a different surname after all.

Now, during the Northern Expedition, Cao Ang secretly colluded with Yuan Shu and plotted evil.

My lord, why don't you take this opportunity to kill Cao Ang and restore your reputation as a relative of the Han Dynasty?

In this way, people all over the world will praise your achievements. "

"My lord, General Cao is absolutely right. We should send troops to attack Cao Ang now."

Ju Su echoed Cao Hong's words and persuaded Cao Cao at the same time.

Cao Cao sighed and said, "Gongtai, Yuantu, Cao Ang came prepared this time.

Our army has consumed a lot of food and grass, and the soldiers are exhausted and need to rest urgently. If we go out, we will suffer heavy losses. "

"My lord, Cao Ang comes prepared, so we should be on guard.

I think it's best to attack now." Ju Su insisted on his point of view.

"Gongtai, Cao Ang is now very powerful, and our army should not engage in direct conflict with him."

Cao Cao shook his head and rejected Ju Shou's proposal.

Ju Su sat aside helplessly, very annoyed that Cao Cao did not listen to his advice.

Cao Hong stood there with a gloomy face, he knew he would fail again this time.

"Father, I think we should take this opportunity to destroy Cao Ang and restore our reputation as a relative of the Han royal family." Cao Ang stood up and said.

Cao Cao looked at Cao Ang and wondered how Cao Ang had become like this.

Cao Hong also looked at Cao Ang. He also wanted to know Cao Ang's attitude.

"Father, I think Cao Ang has evil ambitions. If he is not eradicated soon, he will surely harm the world in the future.

Cao Ang's move was to force your father to send troops in order to weaken the Cao family.

Cao Ang did this because he must be coveting Jingzhou and wanted to annex it.

"I suggest that we gather all the troops and defeat Cao Ang in one fell swoop. As long as we occupy Jingzhou, Cao Ang will not dare to go south again." Cao Ang vowed.

What Cao Ang said was reasonable. As Liu Biao's home base, Jingzhou had a strong control over it.

If Cao Cao could pacify Jingzhou, it would be of great help to his future domination of Jiangdong.

But Cao Cao didn't dare to take the risk because it concerned his life safety.

Cao Cao hesitated for a moment: "Yuan Hao, what do you think?"

Jia Xu said calmly: “My lord, what the young master said is right.

Jingzhou is very important to you. If you can take Jingzhou, you can rest assured in the future."

Cao Hong was overjoyed. Jia Xu's words meant that his thoughts were similar to Cao Ang's, which meant that they still supported him.

Cao Cao thought for a while and then said, "Yuan Hao, I know what you mean.

I am also willing to continue to send troops to attack Xuzhou, but Xu Shu is a minister under Cao Ang, and I am afraid of Cao Ang's revenge."

"My lord, since you have decided to attack Xuzhou, then Xu Shu must be eliminated.

He must have had his own purpose in joining Cao Ang.

Moreover, Xu Shu was originally from Yingchuan, and his father once served as the governor of Xuzhou. Xu Shu's surrender to Cao Ang was probably not just to repay the life-saving grace.

Cao Ang is now in the Northern Expedition, and he dare not easily mobilize a large army to attack our army.

Therefore, this villain Xu Shu must be eliminated.

As for Cao Ang's revenge, you can completely avoid it. What does Xu Shu's life or death have to do with you?" Jia Xu said with a smile.

Jia Xu's analysis was very thorough. Cao Ang really didn't dare to mobilize a large army to attack Cao Cao easily, because Cao Cao now controlled Yanzhou, and Cao Ang had to be wary.

Moreover, Cao Ang's attention is now attracted by Cao Cao, and it is impossible for him to attack Cao Cao in a short period of time.

Cao Hong listened to Jia Xu's words and felt that they made a lot of sense. "

"My Lord, I agree with Gongtai's plan. Cao Ang is ambitious and he will go south sooner or later. (End of this chapter)
