Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 666 Uninvited
Zhong Yao and Ding Chong discussed for a long time. Although they could not confirm many details, they understood that in order for Cao Cao to take Liu Xie back to Yanzhou safely and be responsible for the breakup, they obviously could not let Yuan Xi move freely.

At this time, instead of passively defending, taking the initiative to attack can further contain Yuan Xi. The two of them had decided on their plan and went to Cao Cao to express their thoughts.

After hearing this, Cao Cao showed a look of relief on his face and said with appreciation: "I feel relieved when you two are in charge."

"As long as you persist for three years, I will definitely be able to pacify Jizhou and even Jingzhou and Yizhou. By then you will be one step closer."

The two of them were overjoyed and quickly knelt down to thank me. Cao Cao said, "After I leave tomorrow, all matters regarding the attack on the fierce tiger will be discussed between you and Zhang Yan, Ma Teng and Han Sui."

"If I go and talk to you in person, it will make them wary. Your status is just right, and it won't make them resist."

Zhong Yao thought for a while and said: "Please don't worry, Mr. Cao, we will definitely do everything in this matter."

He hesitated for a moment, "There is news that Liu Bei is heading north from Yingchuan County. Will it pose a threat to Cao Gong's Emperor's motorcade?"

Cao Cao's face darkened, "I also learned that, thanks to my trust in him back then, I didn't expect him to be a capricious villain!"

"The person in the belt edict is the only one who escaped this time, but don't worry, I have sent a letter to Yuan Shu, asking him to attack Liu Bei with all his strength."

"This is a great opportunity for Yuan Shu. Originally, in the Jianghuai area, Liu Bei and Liu Bei were fighting each other, but Yuan Shu was already helpless."

"But I mobilized troops to attack Yecheng and transferred the fierce tiger army away. Liu Bei is preparing to go north to welcome the emperor. He probably hasn't learned what happened in Huaicheng yet."

"At this time, Yuan Shu is waiting for work. Under an all-out attack with several times his troops, Liu Bei will definitely be defeated, and Yuan Shu will be able to regain Yuzhou, so he will definitely not give up this opportunity."

Zhong Yao and Ding Chong listened with admiration on their faces, "Cao Gong is wise!"

Cao Cao nodded slightly, "But you must not be careless. The world situation is now in a dangerous balance. If there is a slight change, allies will become enemies."

The two of them listened thoughtfully. Is Cao Cao referring to Yuan Shu, or Ma Teng and Han Sui?

Cao Cao added: "After the winter repairs, it will be time for all forces to exert their strength. In order to seize the opportunity, we must be prepared now."

"So if I leave this time, the fierce tiger may not be willing to give in and wait for an opportunity to sneak attack on my retreat."

"It will then depend on how you two coordinate with Ma Teng, Han Sui and Zhang Yan."

The two men quickly accepted the order. Seeing that Cao Cao had nothing to explain, they left and got on the carriage.

Ding Chong said to Zhong Yao: "Now, of the two parties, who should we persuade first?"

Zhong Yao thought for a while, "Go to Ma Teng and Han Sui. If you can get him to agree to the authority to attack the Black Mountain Pass, Zhang Yan will definitely be unable to hold back."

"After all, Black Mountain is the territory given to him. If Ma Teng Han Sui takes the opportunity to occupy the pass, it will be difficult for him to enter Black Mountain. So as long as Ma Teng Han Sui agrees, Zhang Yan will definitely not be reconciled to others."

Ding Chong thought for a while, "I heard that Ma Teng and Han Sui seem to be having some disagreements recently. Will they agree?"

Zhong Yao said confidently: "This situation was deliberately created by Duke Cao. When Han Sui came to the city to talk, Duke Cao kept him for a few days. Only Han Sui knew what the content was. Ma Teng outside the city must have been suspicious, and the two The relationship between people is never as close as before."

"This is the best time to take advantage of it."

"As long as we pretend to ask Han Sui to send troops, Ma Teng will definitely want to take the initiative and take the initiative to prevent Han Sui from making meritorious deeds."

After Ding Chong heard this, he not only secretly sighed that Zhong Yao was indeed very powerful. He stripped everyone's relationship apart and quickly grasped the key. It seemed that he had to work hard to take his place.

The two carriages went all the way to Ma Teng and Han Sui's military camp outside the city, and began to plot to attack the Black Mountain Pass.

Yuan Xi did not have spies in Ma Teng and Han Sui's camp, so he naturally did not learn the news, but he did know that Cao Cao would leave in the next few days.

So Yuan Xi was thinking about whether he could take advantage of Cao Cao's journey and go south through the secret passage in the Black Mountains to intercept Cao Cao's troops. Even if he couldn't recapture the emperor, he would at least cause Cao Cao to suffer a big loss.

But according to the suggestion brought by Guo Jiarang and Lu Lingqi, they were to return directly to Jicheng without further entanglement. Regarding this point, Jushou and Lu Xun could not decide. After all, if they gave up this time, it would be difficult to get it back in the future.

That night, when Yuan Xi was sitting in the tent, leaning against a pile of straw and meditating, Sun Li came in and said that an uninvited guest had arrived. When Yuan Xi heard that it was Yang Feng, he was confused. What was she doing at this time?
When Sun Li and Lu Lingqi brought Yang Feng in as if facing an enemy, Yuan Xi found that the other party's face was a little more weathered. The woman in her 20s looked like a weather-beaten woman in her 40s or [-]s.

Before Yuan Xi could speak, Yang Feng said bluntly: "I want to settle the score with Zhang Yan."

Yuan Xi said helplessly: "I can't even get out of the pass now, and this is a war. I can't risk my life with you."

Yang Feng raised her eyebrows and was about to make some sarcastic remarks, but now that she was alone, she had to hold back her temper and told Zhang Yan about cultivating rogue bandits in Black Mountain.She finally said: "Zhang Yan lied to me, lied to the Black Mountain Army, and betrayed Taiping Dao. I must ask for an explanation."

Yuan Xi still refused: "I am fighting, not playing house."

"Although I also want to kill Zhang Yan, firstly, he will not enter Black Mountain. Secondly, I don't know any movements of the enemy at all, so I really can't help you."

Yang Feng thought for a while, "What if I can help you find out the information in the city?"

"In the past year, I have penetrated into Taipingdao and know the incisions and methods they use today."

"If I can sneak into Huai City, I can find out the enemy's movements. In exchange, how about you help me catch Zhang Yan?"

Yuan Xi still shook his head, "It's one thing to know, but it's another to be able to do it."

Seeing that Yuan Xi was tight-lipped, Yang Feng rolled her eyes and said, "When I came here, I had already heard the news that Marquis Wen had died in battle, and his body is still hanging on the top of the city."

"How about I help you bring his body back?"

Lu Lingqi's expression changed after hearing this, but she resisted speaking.

When Yuan Xi saw it, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "If you can do it, I can only promise you to do it according to your ability."

"If the situation is too bad, I won't be able to fulfill my promise, so I can't promise you anything now."

After hearing this, Yang Feng turned around and walked out, saying, "That's enough."

"I'm going to Huaicheng now."

Yuan Xi and Lu Lingqi were both stunned, and Lu Lingqi said: "You...are going alone?"

Yang Feng waved her hand, "I'm used to being alone."

Lu Lingqi bit her lip, "It's very dangerous over there. You might not be able to come back."

Yang Feng smiled and said: "Then you can only blame me for being unlucky."

Yuan Xi and Lu Lingqi looked at each other. In fact, they were also very conflicted in their hearts, because collecting Lu Bu's body was very useful, whether it was to fulfill their filial piety to the two of them or to seek revenge later.

But what the two of them were worried about was that it would be difficult to even send people to sneak into Huaicheng, let alone snatch Lu Bu's body. Now that Yang Feng had taken the initiative, the two had no reason to refuse.

The two watched Yang Feng ride out of the camp. Although they didn't know what means Yang Feng used to sneak into Huaicheng, they were somewhat confident seeing the confident look on his face.

Lu Lingqi looked at the direction in which Yang Feng disappeared, and felt that Yang Feng gave her a different feeling than the last time they met.

Not in words, but physically... Lu Lingqi suddenly realized that she had been not far from Yang Feng since she appeared, but it seemed that she had not heard the other party's footsteps from beginning to end?
Yang Feng looked for a way down on the edge of the Black Mountain, until she followed a path to a cliff. She pushed aside the branches and looked down.

In front of him was an extremely steep and steep slope of [-] feet. It was difficult for the enemy, whether it was horses or people, to get up, so the patrolling Xiliang cavalry rarely came here.

Yang Feng pulled the horse behind her up the steep slope. The horse was afraid and did not dare to go down. Yang Feng thought for a while and realized that even if the horse went up the slope, it would not be able to stand. So she could only leave the horse behind. He took off the saddle, turned it over and put it under his body, and slid down the slope.

As she slid down the steep slope faster and faster, the scenery on both sides retreated rapidly, and the cold wind hit her face like a knife. When she was still more than ten feet away, the saddle hit the stone on the ground. The huge impact bounced Yang Feng into the air. She tried to stabilize her body in the air, landed on her feet, and started running.

But because her speed was too fast, she lost her balance when she was about to reach the ground and rolled on the ground. Then she fell heavily into the bushes and took a long time to get up. She felt sore all over her body, but she stood up without caring. , patted the dirt on his body and ran towards Huaicheng.

When she was approaching Huaicheng, it was already dark. She hid in a dense forest, bent down, and put her ears to the ground, listening to the sounds on the road.

Groups of patrolling cavalry passed by. Yang Feng held her breath and concentrated, letting the other party pass by like a whirlwind. Finally, after several groups of people passed by, a slight vibration was heard in the distance.

Yang Feng heard the sound of horse hoofbeats, and his face was filled with joy. Xiliang soldiers were patrolling in groups of three or five, but the one coming from far away was alone. He was afraid that he had fallen behind for some reason.

Sure enough, not long after, a Xiliang soldier spy came on horseback. When he passed by, Yang Feng jumped up and stabbed the opponent's waist with a spear in his hand!
The man was unexpectedly attacked, but he didn't panic. He sneered, turned the horse's head with the reins with one hand, pulled out the sword from behind with the other hand, and struck at the barrel of the gun. He was actually an extremely experienced veteran!

However, Yang Feng shook the gun, slashed around the opponent, raised the tip of the gun, and pierced the opponent's throat. The strong wind it brought poured into the opponent's throat and suppressed the whistle in his throat!
The man was shocked, knowing that the opponent was prepared. He was about to run away, but saw the tip of the opponent's spear suddenly accelerate several times, and it was about to stop at his throat.

Then the blood from his throat gushes out, blocking his throat and making him unable to speak anymore.
