Xu Chu rushed to Donglai to assassinate Yuan Tan, and Yuan Xu of course guessed what Cao Cao's intentions were.

He said to Tian Feng: "Cao Cao has always been committed to being my enemy, how can I tolerate him? ”

"What are Childe's plans?" Tian Feng asked, "Do you want to raise an army to attack?" ”

"Fight is definitely going to fight." Yuan Xu replied: "The disaster situation in Donglai is stable, and troops will be dispatched immediately." ”

He instructed Tian Feng: "Inform Guo Fengxiao, Pang Shiyuan and others that they should raise troops and horses and prepare to attack Cao Cao." ”

"When does Childe plan to send troops?" Tian Feng asked again.

"I'm in Qingzhou." Yuan Xu replied: "They are fully funded, I will attack Zang Ba first." ”

Tian Feng asked, "How many soldiers and horses are transferred?" ”

"Not a single one." Yuan Xu replied: "The guards we brought are enough. ”

When he conquered the Xiongnu, he almost did not bring troops and horses, and still drove the Xiongnu out of the Hetao.

It is difficult to find the dead bodies outside the pass, but Yuan Xu can still drive away hundreds of thousands of Huns.

The Central Plains has been in war for many years, and there are dead corpses everywhere, which is more conducive to Yuan Xu's necromantic summoning technique.

In this battle, Cao Cao had almost no chance of winning!

Cao Cao ordered Xu Chu to come to assassinate him, and Yuan Tan regretted that he was an enemy of Yuan Xu even more.

Tian Feng and the others left, and Yuan Xu left Yuan Tan behind.

"Elder brother heard that?" He asked Yuan Tan.

Yuan Tan knew what he was asking, and nodded silently.

"Cao Cao's wolf ambition is Hebei, the eldest brother used to be my enemy, did you ever think that even if he defeated me, would he hand over Hebei to you?"

"I was thinking at that time, if I got Hebei, I could use the entire Yuan family to fight Cao Cao to the death!" Yuan Tan replied truthfully.

"Cao Cao's fierce generals are like clouds, and there are countless wise men." Yuan Xu sneered: "Why does the eldest brother think that he can repel him?" ”

Yuan Tan was speechless.

If he wants to deal with Zang Ba, there is still a few chances of winning, and in the face of Cao Cao, there is indeed no possibility of success.

"Do you know why I went to the Xiongnu first, instead of coming to Qingzhou?" Yuan Xu asked again.

Looking at him blankly, Yuan Tan didn't say anything.

"I'm leaving a way for my eldest brother to live." Yuan Xu said: "Coincidentally, there was a tsunami in Donglai, Qingzhou was exhausted, and the eldest brother was unable to deal with it, so he could only beg me." It is this request that you have lived yourself, and you have also lived countless Qingzhou soldiers. ”

"I used to be wrong." Having witnessed Yuan Xu's strength with his own eyes, and also saw the "dragon" corpse he brought back from Penglai, Yuan Tan had long lost the confidence to fight again.

"This time to conquer Cao Cao, do you want the eldest brother to join the army?" Yuan Xu asked him.

Yuan Tan was stunned: "I can ......"

"Absolutely." Yuan Xu replied: "Without military power, it's always okay to watch the battle." ”

Yuan Tan was speechless, he had brought soldiers for so many years, and it didn't matter if he didn't have military power, he was just watching the battle if he wanted him to follow the army.

Xu Chu went to Donglai, and he was not alone.

He was accompanied by several retinues.

The entourage does not need to cooperate with the second kill, as long as they make some necessary preparations for him.

When Xu Chu went to Yuan Xu's residence, several attendants watched from afar.

They saw Deng Zhan with his guards and escorted Xu Chu to the prison.

Knowing that with their strength, there was no way to rescue them, and several people immediately decided to return to Huainan.

A few days later, Cao Cao received the news that Xu Chu had been captured.

He sat dejectedly and did not speak for a long time.

Xun Yu called him softly: "Lord......"

Cao Cao was stunned: "Gongda has something to say?" ”

"If Xu Zhongkang's assassination fails, it will definitely anger Yuan Xianxin." Xun You said: "It won't be long before he will lead a large army to Huainan, and the lord needs to deal with it as soon as possible." ”

"Even Xu Zhongkang was captured by him, what else can I do?" Cao Cao shook his head: "Yuan Benchu's talent is mediocre, how did he come up with such a son?" ”

"This is not the time to sigh about how Yuan Benchu had this son." Xun You said: "The lord should think about how to resist Yuan Xianxin's attack. ”

"Is there a way for Gongda?" Cao Cao asked him.

"The lord can dig a trench outside Shouchun City, which is full of firewood and oil, and when Yuan Xianxin comes, he only needs to light a fire ......."

"The same method, Guo Fengxiao has used it." Cao Cao sighed: "Where is he now? Wasn't he captured by Yuan Xianxin and thrown into the account? ”

"Guo Fengxiao has used it, and it is also useful." Xun You said: "It can be seen that this method can be used repeatedly. Taking advantage of Yuan Xianxin's absence, the trench outside the city was dug deeper and wider, and after his murderous corpse fell in, he went forward and burned to ashes inside, to see what else he could do. ”

"What do you mean......" Cao Cao seemed to understand what he meant.

"I mean, prepare early and annihilate Yuan Xianxin outside Huainan City." Xun You replied: "He has always been arrogant, and since he drove away the Huns, he has swelled to the extreme. If the heavens want it to die, it will make it mad. It will not be difficult for the lord to destroy him. ”

"Is there really a chance of winning?" Cao Cao asked.

"Absolutely." Xun You replied: "Yuan Xianxin is now in Qingzhou, he has rectified the soldiers and horses in Qingzhou, and Yuan Tan's original army has been scattered. Now the Yuan family's military strength in Qingzhou is simply unable to start a war. Directly send troops to Huainan, Qingzhou is in danger, and his only choice is to march into Qingzhou and destroy Zang Ba first. No matter how bad Zang Ba and the others are, they can always resist for a month or two. With so much time, can't the lord be able to prepare? ”

Cao Cao nodded: "Gongda is right, pass the order to go down and dig a trench outside the city immediately...... No, it was along Shouchun City, digging out a moat, and Yuan Xianxin must not be allowed to get close to the city wall. ”

The news that Yuan Xu was going to use troops against Cao Cao reached Yecheng.

The Yuan family, who had been waiting for this day for a long time, was suddenly boiling.

The crowd was enthusiastic and was making preparations, and even Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang also sent documents to ask for war.

Their letter of invitation to war was not delivered by messenger, but to Wei Qi, who was ordered to go to Qingzhou.

After reading a stack of war papers, Yuan Xu asked Wei Qi, "Do you know why I invited you over?" ”

Wei Qi replied: "I am the deputy envoy of the wealth gathering order, and the prince must have thought of a way to get money when he summoned Qingzhou." ”

"Of course." Yuan Xu nodded: "The peaceful and prosperous times need money, and the troubled times need money even more." It costs money to raise soldiers, and the local government is also reaching out, and it is not so easy to be the master of the house. Money-making is even more important to me than sending troops to fight against other heroes! ”

"I understand what Childe means." Wei Qi asked, "What do you need me to do?" ”

"Qingzhou is close to the sea, you know." Yuan Xu said: "The sea is abundant, and even in disaster years, fishermen on the seashore will not be dragged down by famine. Recently, I've been thinking about how much seafood can benefit if it is sent to the mainland. ”

"It's not easy to send the production to the mainland." Wei Qi was stunned for a moment, and said to him: "It's a big trouble if it's difficult to preserve, and when it is transported to the place, it will already stink." ”
