The Necromancer of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 163 Yuan Xianxin is coming to Huainan

The disaster situation in Donglai has been stabilized, and the captured Qingzhou Army has also been recruited.

When Yuan Xu left, he still only brought one or two hundred guards with him.

But this time, apart from Yuan Tan, Zang Ba and Sun Guan were by his side.

"Xianxin." Yuan Tan always felt uneasy as he was heading towards Huainan: "Cao Cao has many talented people under his command, and only bringing more than 100 guards, isn't it too risky?"

"The living soldiers just stick to it." Yuan Xu said: "The crusade depends on the dead."

He easily defeated Zang Ba and Sun Guan, which has already convinced Yuan Tan.

However, Cao Cao was not comparable. Yuan Xu only led more than a hundred guards to conquer, which inevitably made Yuan Tan feel that he was too arrogant.

Zang Ba and Sun Guan did not raise any objections to this.

The two of them had fought against Yuan Xu before, and they both knew his skills.

Although Cao Cao has many capable people, as long as there are no immortals to help him, it is almost impossible to stop Yuan Xu!
Yuan Xu sent troops to Huainan and approached Shouchun.

When Cao Cao got the news, he was shocked and summoned Xun You and others to discuss in front of the hall.

"I thought Zang Ba could stop Yuan Xianxin for at least three to five months, but I didn't expect that he would be defeated at the first touch. Now he is rushing to Huainan, how should we deal with it?" Cao Cao asked the crowd.

"Most of the trenches outside the city have been dug." Xun You replied, "Now there is no other way but to use it temporarily."

"How can Yuan Xianxin be stopped just by moats?" Cao Cao said, "He can drive the dead."

Cheng Yu got up and suggested: "My lord, can you send someone to ask for help elsewhere. Once there is backup, are you afraid that you won't be able to destroy Yuan Xianxin?"

"Where can I ask for help?" Cao Cao asked.

"Ma Teng and Han Sui in Xiliang are too far away." Cheng Yu replied, "The most suitable one is Gongsun Du in Liaodong."

"Gongsun Du is old and frail, and is dying now." Cao Cao frowned: "How could he..."

"Gongsundu controls Liaodong and is not restricted by the imperial court. It can be seen that he intends to be independent from the imperial court." Cheng Yu said: "As long as the lord is powerful, I think he will definitely raise troops to harass Hebei. Once Hebei is controlled, Yuan Xianxin will not The reason for returning?"

"Who is suitable?" Cao Cao asked.

"I'll go." Cheng Yu recommended himself: "It's an emergency, and someone else will go, which makes people feel uneasy."

"There is Lao Zhongde." Cao Cao said, "Whether you can hold Huainan depends entirely on whether you can persuade Gongsun Du."

"Don't worry, my lord, I will fulfill my mission." Cheng Yu agreed.

After the court meeting was over, Cheng Yu left Huainan and rushed to Liaodong.

Cao Cao climbed up to the city wall of Shouchun with the others, and looked at the direction where Yuan Xu might appear.

"In the battle of Guandu, the Cao family had already seized the opportunity." Cao Cao sighed, "Who would have thought that Yuan Xianxin would be killed in the sky. Yuan Benchu ​​had several sons, and many of them were talented, and I never paid attention to them. It's just Yuan Xianxin. I am proficient in witchcraft, how can I deal with it?"

"Although Yuan Xianxin is proficient in demon art, it's not impossible for the lord to win." Xun You was still explaining, "We'll find out after a battle when he comes."

"The scouts reported that he only brought a hundred guards with him." Cao Cao said, "Doesn't it mean that Huainan is under control?" Cao Cao said.

Xun You replied: "The more he entrusts himself to the greater, the more opportunities our lord has."

"How to say?" Cao Cao asked.

"Cheng Zhongde has gone to Liaodong, but we can't just expect him to persuade Gongsun Du." Xun You said, "Yuan Xianxin is rushing to Huainan. Before he arrives, the lord can still make arrangements."

"How to deploy?" Cao Cao asked.

"Send a troop to lie dormant outside the city in advance." Xun You said, "When he comes, that troop will rush out without warning. With the few guards around Yuan Xianxin, how can we protect him?"

Cao Cao's eyes lit up: "You mean..."

"Both internal and external, unexpected." Xun You replied.

"Who is suitable?" Cao Cao asked.

"Xiahouyuan is very brave, let him go." Xun You said, "Yuan Xianxin has Zang Ba, Sun Guan, and Yuan Tan by his side. The combination of the three of them may not necessarily be the opponent of General Xiahou Miaocai."

"He can't go alone." Cao Cao immediately vetoed: "I think we should send a few more people. Cao Ren and Cao Hong also go there together."

"In this case, are you worried that Yuan Xianxin will not die?" Xun You replied, "My lord is wise!"

Not long after, Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, and Cao Hong, who received the order, led [-] soldiers and horses out of the city to hibernate.

1 people, neither too much nor too little.

Fortunately, Shouchun is close to Feiling, with continuous mountains and rivers, and it is not difficult to hide more than ten thousand people.

After this team left the city, it quickly disappeared without a trace.

A few days later, Yuan Xu arrived outside Shouchun City.

Before reaching the city gate, he pointed to the surrounding mountains and said to Yuan Tan and others: "There are many mountains here, but the mountains are not steep. It happens to be a good place to hide ambushes."

"My lord, you mean that Cao Cao will hide his ambush here?" Zang Ba asked.

"Defend the city, in front of my fierce corpse, it will be sooner or later to break the city." Yuan Xu replied: "Cao Cao is not mediocre, there are many talents around him, if he doesn't know how to use such a situation, I'm a little suspicious , how could the Yuan family suffer from him in the past."

"If there is an ambush, it must be taken by surprise." Zang Ba frowned: "What is your plan?"

"Apart from seizing the city, what other plan do you have?" Yuan Xu smiled slightly and said to him, "No matter how many ambushes there are, it's just sending me some murderous corpses."

What he said made Zang Ba and others feel cold sweat running down their spines.

Knowing that there was an ambush, he didn't care and still moved forward, and said that the ambush was just to send him more corpses.

Yuan Xu's courage is indeed not comparable to that of ordinary people.

Getting closer to Shouchun, Yuan Xu signaled everyone to stop.

He took down the ghost piano and played the longest piece of music.

Melodious tunes hover over the open fields.

When Zang Ba and others heard this song, they knew that the summoned corpse would not do anything to them, but they still felt chills in their hearts.

After a while, the nearby ground loosened a little, and hands with bones sticking out of the ground.

It didn't take long for Yuan Xu and everyone around him to be surrounded by black corpses.

Zang Ba and Sun Guan subconsciously pressed the hilt of their swords.

Yuan Xu was relieved: "The two generals don't need to worry about it. The murderous corpse will only attack the enemy and will not touch its own people."

With his words, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, but they still didn't let go of the hand holding the sword hilt.

More and more murderous corpses gathered, Yuan Xu greeted everyone: "You can go."

He drove countless murderous corpses to the outside of Shouchun City.

Looking at the city wall, a smile appeared on the corner of Yuan Xu's mouth.

"Do you want to send someone to call Zhan?" Yuan Tan asked.

"No need." Yuan Xu replied: "This place has been cut off from the city wall, and the people sent there can't get under the city wall at all."

On the city wall, looking at the black and murderous corpses outside the city, Cao Cao also felt a chill in his heart.
