Chapter 24 Cao Cao Asks For Help, Yuan Xi Pits Cao To Send Troops! (4, Ask For Flowers, Ask For Coll
And according to the major events in history, now Cao Cao has just returned from the second expedition to Zhang Xiu, which can be regarded as avenging his eldest son, nephew and love general Dian Wei!
His next step is to send troops to Xuzhou to conquer Lu Bu!
In the same way, at this time, Cao Cao would also ask his eldest brother Yuan Shao for help and ask him to send a team of troops to help!
In the face of Cao Cao’s request, Yuan Shao will send Zhu Ling as reinforcements to the south!
It’s a pity that Zhu Ling finally chose to stay under Cao Cao’s command because of Cao Cao’s charisma, and later became a good general of Cao Cao’s command!
Thinking of this, Yuan Xi has an idea!
If that Cao Cao really came to ask for help, Yuan Xi would definitely go out in person at that time, although he did not necessarily want to win Xuzhou!
But what Diaochan, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, these beauties and generals, have to snatch them into their own hands, and Cao Cao must not be cheap!
Otherwise, Cao Cao takes Zhang Liao, and his strength will increase at that time, which will naturally be detrimental to the Yuan family!
Yuan Xi won’t forget Zhang Liao, the famous general of the Three Kingdoms who slashed and smashed through the array, supersized Xiaoyaojin, and defeated Sun Shiwan!
Once you get Zhang Liao, you can not only enhance your own strength, but also greatly weaken the talents of Cao Cao’s subordinates!
This in and out is not easy!
After making up his mind, Yuan Xi also decided to suggest to his father after a while, agreeing to go south first!
And these few days, it seems that he is really afraid of Yuan Xi’s death in battle, Zhen Mi is pestering Yuan Xi every day, and he is about to kill him!
In this regard, Yuan Xi is also suffering and happy!
…
In August 198 AD, Cao Cao mobilized his troops and horses, and generals Xu Chu, Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren and other generals to send troops to Xuzhou!
To this end, Cao Cao also sent messengers to visit Yuan Shao. First, he congratulated Yuan Xi on becoming the heir, and then sent some gifts!
It also shows his intentions!
“Yuan Gong, let my lord come down here. One is to congratulate Yuan Gong on gaining another state, and the other is that my lord and Yuan Gong are allies!”
“Lu Bu’s thief has the heart to go north, so my lord decided to attack Lu Bu, but I am afraid that he will not be able to fully compete, so I ask Yuan Gong to send troops to help!”
As the messenger, it is Cao Cao’s military and political wizards who are full of favor!
Man Chong this person is also both civil and military. He can not only govern one party, but also command the army to fight, and he can also control the law, and he has a three-inch tongue!
But he is not well-known, and he cannot be called a top talent under Cao Cao!
When Man Chong said this, Yuan Shao laughed!
“Meng De has been a good friend of mine for many years. If he has needs, I, Yuan Benchu, are naturally willing to help. Let me tell you, how much do I need to send troops to help?”
After Yuan Shao said this, Yuan Xi’s heart sank!
“My father’s old problem has been committed again, but he can’t agree to Cao Cao’s request so easily!”
So, when Man Chong was about to speak, Yuan Xi got up and laughed!
“Uncle Meng De is really intentional. Since Mr. Man Chong said just now, Lu Bu has a plan for me in Jizhou, and Uncle Meng De is not strong enough!”
“It’s better than this. This time, my Yuan family will send troops to Xuzhou and let Uncle Meng De assist me. How about when I take Xuzhou and send Xiaopei to Uncle Meng De?”
When Yuan Xi said these words, Man Chong was stunned for a moment, and then a bit of embarrassment appeared on his face!
If it really followed what Yuan Xi said, then Cao Cao couldn’t be mad?
Cao Cao’s purpose is to expand his strength so that he can fight Yuan Shao decisively. Now if Yuan Shao sends troops, Xuzhou will naturally fall into Yuan Shao’s hands!
At that time, he Cao Cao also hit a hammer, just surrender directly!
Therefore, Man Chong immediately said embarrassedly!
“Young Master Xianyi is joking. Now that Duke Yuan has such great enemies as Gongsun Zan, I’d better leave it to Duke Cao to worry about Lu Bu!”
Having said that, Yuan Xi shook his head and said!
“Hey, to my father, Gongsun Zan is nothing but a dead bone in the grave, and Uncle Meng De is my father’s best friend and ally!”
“That’s my family. The family doesn’t talk about the two sides. This is a busy job, and my Yuan family will help!”
Immediately, Yuan Xi did not give Man Chong a chance to speak, but immediately winked at Xu You and the others!
As a result, Xu You and the others immediately understood and went out!
“My lord, what the prince said is exactly, since Duke Cao does not have the strength to capture Xuzhou, why don’t we send troops!”
Seeing Xu You, Tian Feng, and Ju Shou open their mouths, and his son was also involved, Yuan Shao immediately agreed!
“Alright, Man Chong, go back and tell Meng De that you and I will join forces to destroy Lu Bu!”
After Yuan Shao’s decision was finalized, Man Chong, even if he was eloquent, couldn’t say any more at this moment, and could only return to Yanzhou with Yuan Shao’s order!
After waiting for Man Chong to leave, Yuan Shaocai said with a puzzled expression!
“Xianyi, when Cao Cao came to ask for reinforcements, it’s fine for us to divide a division to help. Why do you have to take the initiative to provoke that Lu Bu?”
“What’s more, the next target of our army should be Gongsun Zan, so why should we divide our troops?”
Hearing Yuan Shao’s words, Yuan Xi also said with a smile!
“Father, gather the strength of my three states, Gongsun Zan has no choice but to lose, but if Cao Cao takes Xuzhou!”
“At that time, if my father wants to expand, he can only fight Cao Cao’s idea. Then, waiting for his father and Cao Cao, only a fight can decide the hegemony of the Central Plains!”
“Since it is inevitable to fight against Cao Cao, why not take advantage of the current layout and try to weaken Cao Cao’s strength?”
“Therefore, the boy is willing to lead an army to Xuzhou. It’s not a good idea to trick Cao Cao. I, Yuan Xianyi, write the three words upside down!”
When Yuan Xi said this, Yuan Shao was also lost in thought!
What Yuan Xi said is very reasonable, but with Yuan Shao’s arrogance, he has always looked down on Cao Cao as an official!
But in recent years, this son of his family has been very predictable. Since he said so, let him go!
In the end, Yuan Shao agreed to Yuan Xi’s proposal!
“Xianyi, that Lu Bu is highly skilled in martial arts. If you want to lead the army this time, you must not confront Lu Bu and Lu Bu in front of the battle. You must keep it in your heart!”
“At the same time, this time Yan Liang and Wen Chou took you with them. Without them, you would not be Lu Bu’s opponent!”
Listening to Yuan Shao’s concern, Yuan Xi also took orders!
On this expedition, Yuan Xi led 30,000 cavalry, including 10,000 cavalry and 20,000 infantry!
The four generals who accompanied the army were Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang He, and Gao Lan, and the four court columns in Hebei came out. This lineup is enough to make Cao Cao eat a pot!
Yuan Xi has actually seen the attribute values of Hebei Siting Columns for a long time!
Both Yan Liang and Wen Chou and martial arts are as high as 98 points, but the other attributes are a bit appalling!
And Zhang He’s martial arts is as high as 94, the commander has 88 points, and his resourcefulness is not bad; Gao Lan is just pure bravery, his martial arts is 96 points!
Yuan Xi was also very curious about this, Gao Lan only had 96 points of force, how could he be able to fight Xu Chu for 500 rounds?
But thinking about the actual combat, Yuan Xi can understand it!
Yan Liang’s martial arts skills are 98, but he was killed by Guan Yu with a single knife. Even if there is a reason to underestimate the enemy, any accident may happen in actual combat!
Gao Lan might not be as powerful as Xu Chu, but the two of them could fight for hundreds of rounds!
…
ps: Gao Lan and Xu Chu fought for hundreds of rounds. I didn’t make it up, but Romance and Storytelling wrote it like this! *
