A few days later, Wang Xiao, who was about to arrive near Xudu, received news from Yecheng.

At this time, the soldiers and horses of Zhang Liao and others were stationed in the area of Xiaoyaojin. Cao Zhang and others were stationed in the Northland. Because Xiahoudun and the others couldn't figure out the current situation, the soldiers and horses stayed in the distance and watched, and did not participate in any party.

Therefore, the defenders of Yecheng only had the people left by Wang Xiao and Cao Cao, about 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers and horses.

Because of Cao Cao's accident, the army's heart fluctuated. When Jia Xu's army drove over, there were even people who wanted to open the city gate.

However, these were all resolved by the Pang Tong left by Wang Xiao.

Jia Xu brought a lot of people, but most of them were the remnants of the ranger Yellow Turban who were recruited with money and food.

It is difficult to rely on these people to break through the tall and sturdy Yecheng city with the city walls. This very famous old yin X has all kinds of tricks together.

What digging tunnels, deceitful surrenders, sounding east and west, and night raids are all used.

It's just that these methods were all defused by Pang Tong, and no matter how tempted he was, Pang Shiyuan just couldn't get out of the city. It is clear that he wants to drag Jia Xu in Yecheng.

When he instigated cannon fodder to desperately fill the city, and the situation was at its most critical, dozens of muskets suddenly appeared.

There were not many of them, but the huge roar of the salvo, the invincible terrifying armor-piercing ability, and the ultra-long range all brought a great shock to Jia Xu's department.

Especially those fierce men who bravely climbed first were beaten into a sieve and fell to the city, which was definitely a huge blow to morale.

The treacherous and cunning Jia Xu met an opponent this time, and there was no way to conquer Yecheng in a short period of time.

Since Yecheng is fine, Wang Xiao is going to be powerful here.

When he went out to fight against the Kansai Coalition Army before, Boss Cao sent most of the elites under his command to Wang Xiao.

Among them, there are the elite mobile corps commanded by Xiahou Yuan, the strong army of Hanoi led by Xu Huang, and the tiger and leopard cavalry commanded by Cao Chun, etc.

It is no exaggeration to say that Wang Xiao gathered most of the main force of the Cao army.

In addition to Zhang Liao and others who were far away in Xiaoyaojin, and Xiahoudun and others who were still waiting to see where they had not joined. Cao Jun's elite is basically here with him.

However, Wang Xiao also had a doubt in his heart. That is, Xiahoudun, their behavior is too weird.

But now is not the time to think about this, the first thing Wang Xiao has to do is to take Xu Du.

The same is true of the progress of things, after the soldiers besieged Xudu, Wang Xiao only took three days to enter the city.

Since Cao Cao left here to go to Yecheng, Xu Du has indeed become a base camp against Cao Cao.

But Cao Cheng has been accumulating prestige for many years, and there are still people who are willing to follow him.

And more importantly, after Cao Pi ascended the throne, he couldn't wait to force Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty to make concessions, and the result was that the loyal Han people wanted to kill him.

So someone helped to open the city gates, and it was only natural to see the brothers fighting among themselves.

Because of Cao Cao's suppression, there were not many soldiers and horses around Cao Pi who could really use them, and some of them were transferred to Yecheng by Jia Xu.

The remaining outcasts, rangers, yellow turban thieves and so on who were recruited by spending money and food, had almost negligible combat effectiveness in the face of the regular army.

When the city gate was opened and Wang Xiao's army entered the city, these people immediately scattered.

After Wang Xiao entered the city, he didn't go anywhere else, and went straight to Cao Pi's mansion.

Although Cao Pi accepted the Zen concession, he did not live in the palace.

The capital in his mind is Luoyang, but the current form and environment can't take into account the matter of moving the capital at all.

Now that Wang Xiao has entered the city, there is no need to think about anything.

Entered Cao Pi's mansion and stopped the looting and killing of the soldiers. Wang Xiao took Xu Chu straight to the middle hall.

The middle hall was very chaotic, and all kinds of bamboo slips, cloth, silk and paper were scattered all over the ground. Looks like we've just been through some chaos before.

The two sides are lit with candles, and the entire nave is brightly illuminated.

Wang Xiao, who was wearing heavy armor, walked in with a saber and faced Cao Pi, who was sitting behind the desk.

"Second brother."

Although Cao Pi looked tired, he was not afraid. He looked at Wang Xiao and said, "You're here." ”

"Hmm."

Wang Xiao nodded, stepped forward and walked in front of Cao Pi and said, "Did you do it?" ”

Cao Pi glanced at Xu Chu, who was glaring at him angrily behind Wang Xiao, and laughed, "It's me." ”

Taking a deep breath, Wang Xiao plunged the sword into the floor with one hand, "You are so bold, you dare to kill your father." ”

Cao Pi seemed to have seen everything, and he didn't care that Xu Chu, who was angry, would behead him at any time.

got up and came down, walked in front of Wang Xiao and looked at him, "If I say that I didn't kill my father, believe it or not." ”

Frowning, Wang Xiao looked at him, "Are you delirious?" ”

At this time, Xiahou Yuan, Xu Huang and others also rushed in, and they all glared angrily when they saw Cao Pi.

Cao Pi shook his head: "I really don't." Because it was his father's stand-in who came to Xudu. ”

Wang Xiao was stunned, and Xu Chu even dropped the weapon in his hand to the ground. Xiahou Yuan and the others were also dumbfounded, as if they were listening to the Book of Heaven.

Cao Pi smiled bitterly, "I only found out about it afterwards." At the beginning, I only planned to put my father under house arrest, but I didn't expect to search the city for a few days to find someone, and it was actually a stand-in. No wonder he has been refusing to see me since he came to Xudu, but at that time I was already riding a tiger. Father, this is a good game of chess. ”

Originally, Xu Zhu Xiahou Yuan and them were all very angry, and they wanted to avenge Cao Cao.

But as soon as I heard this, the atmosphere suddenly changed.

The anger on his face dissipated, and they all looked at the scene of the brothers fighting in front of them.

Cao Pi will not lie in this environment at this time, after all, the general trend has been decided, and the prime minister will definitely come out to clean up the mess in a few days.

If you tell this kind of lie just to live a few more days, then Cao Pi is too much of a failure.

Looking back now, it's no wonder that Boss Cao, who has always been wise, suddenly had a fever in his head, and not only sent Wang Xiao to fight with the elite. He also ran to Xu Du and fell into danger. No one expected this to be the case.

As for the reason, everyone is very clear.

"You've thought of it too." Cao Pi looked up to the sky and sighed: "Father, this is using my hand to clean up everything and people together." I am also the son of my father, why do you do this to me? ”

Xu Chu and the others silently took a few steps back. The next thing, they don't want to get involved.

If the prime minister is not dead, then there is no need to take revenge. The next thing is the internal affairs of Lao Cao's family, as long as they eat melons and watch the excitement, it is definitely not good to participate in it.

Looking back now, Xiahoudun and the others were obviously stationed nearby with a large army, but there was no movement. Needless to say, I know that Boss Cao is over there.

As for how to deal with Cao Pi now, that is Wang Xiao's own business. They also took the opportunity to observe Wang Xiao and see how his conduct was.

Even Xiahou Yuan can understand the things, there is no reason why Wang Xiao can't understand them.

He also understands that the treacherous and cunning Boss Cao plays such a hand, in addition to wanting to hit the family with grass and rabbits, and finally get rid of the suppression of the Han family in righteousness, he also wants to see how he will treat the brothers of the Cao family.

After being silent for a while, Wang Xiao had a plan in his heart.

"Alas~~~"

Wang Xiao let out a long sigh, his face full of sadness, "We grew up together since childhood, and we have a deep brotherhood. You let me do that for good. ”

took a step forward and whispered a few words in Cao Pi's ear, Wang Xiao said righteously, "Second brother, you are brilliantly written, can you write a poem within seven steps to express your state of mind at this time?" ”

Cao Pi's expression was extremely strange, his complexion was constantly changing, and finally he watched Wang Xiao's hand caressing the hilt of the sword from time to time, and he still turned his back on the spot for seven steps.

"Boiled beans are used as soup, and soaked beans are used as juice."

"The beans are burning under the kettle, and the beans are crying in the kettle."

"This is from the same root, why is it too anxious to fry each other!"

Wang Xiao was about to die of laughter in his heart, and the wisher must be very satisfied this time.

This poem is very famous, even after a thousand years, it can still be said casually.

But for the original author, he would rather never have the opportunity to write the poem.

Now that the identities are reversed, Cao Pi, who once forced Cao Zijian to write a poem in seven steps, wrote this poem, which is really interesting.

Wang Xiao, who was already smiling in his heart, had an extremely ashamed expression on his face.

He raised his hand to hide his face, turned around and drew his sword, and walked towards the door, "Don't say anything, let's leave it to the prime minister to make a decision." ”

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived.

Three days later, the army of Xiahoudun and others drove to the vicinity of Xudu.

When I came to Xiahoudun's camp, I really saw Boss Cao who was squinting and drinking.

Wang Xiao's acting skills are online, and the crying scene will come.

Two lines of tears fell, Wang Xiao directly pounced and choked up and said, "Father, it's really good that you're okay." ”

"This is from the same root, why is it too anxious to fry each other." Cao Cao read the poem written by Cao Pi before, sighed and said, "Those who achieve great things are not informal, but they are indeed a little sorry for Zihuan." ”

Wang Xiao was disdainful in his heart, it was you who forced him onto this road with your own hands. I'm still pretending to say anything.

But on his lips, he was saying, "What my father said is very true, and please forgive my second brother." ”

"Do you really want to spare him?" Boss Cao squinted at Wang Xiao, "He is a person who has been an emperor." ”

Wang Xiao smiled and said, "I have never taken it to heart. ”

Cao Cao was very satisfied with Wang Xiao's self-confidence. Because that's how he is.

There are many people who have the ability, but there are not many people who have the ability and self-confidence.

Cao Cao looked down on those who looked ahead and backward in their work, but liked to pretend and be hypocritical.

"That's fine." Cao Cao put down the wine bowl and got up, "Since you don't care, then leave Zihuan a way to live." Send him to Nanpi to be strictly guarded, and spend the rest of his life there. ”

"Everything is arranged by my father."

Cao Pi's affairs are easy to solve, but other things are more troublesome.

First of all, the most important thing is undoubtedly that the Han family was ended by Cao Pi. Now that Cao Pi is defeated, what should the Han family do?

When Wang Xiao was thinking about how Cao Cao would arrange the Han family issue, there was a sound of armor clashes outside.

Xiahoudun and the others, who were wearing blindfolds, stepped in and saluted Cao Cao.

Wang Xiao's eyes shrank, and he felt the smell of blood from Xiahou and them.

"King Wei, the rebellion in the city of Xu Capital has been cleaned up."

Cao Cao used the simplest way to deal with trouble. Those who were loyal to the Han family, those who opposed Cao Cao, and those who followed Cao Pi were all swept away.

This way of doing things is indeed very Cao Cao.
