Chapter 220: A Family at Last

"What did Brother Meng De say, Yuan Shu is a usurper and a traitor, and we and other Hanchen will naturally punish him, and I, as the Yangzhou pastor of the Son of Heaven, can only watch the south occupied by Yuan Shu's rebels and unable to recover it, I am really ashamed of the Son of Heaven, this time I was able to recover Huainan, thanks to Brother Meng De's struggle in Huaibei!" Hearing the trap in Cao Cao's tone, Lu An immediately replied with righteous words.

At this time, he had to show Cao Cao that his attack on Huainan was completely out of his position as a Yangzhou pastor, otherwise in Cao Cao's mouth, he would have beaten Huainan completely for him.

"This guy really planned to include Huainan in his bag a long time ago!" Hearing Lu An deliberately mention his own Yangzhou pastoral, the corners of Cao Cao's mouth twitched slightly, but he could only pretend to laugh and say: "Xuantong was able to defeat the traitor Yuan Shu so quickly completely by virtue of his own strength, and a certain family did not dare to take credit!" ”

Since Huainan is occupied, and the other party is completely defensible in name, it is impossible for Huainan to take it unless there is a war at this time, obviously Cao Cao has no intention of going to war with Lu An at this time, so this dumb loss he has to eat.

"Brother Meng De, don't praise the little brother anymore!" Seeing Cao Cao's tone of going downhill, Lu An knew that Cao Cao was admitting that Huainan belonged to him, he smiled slightly, then took a small box from the lieutenant behind him, and said, "Brother Mengde, please!" ”

"What?" Cao Caozi asked.

"The head of the national thief Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu has been killed on the battlefield, so naturally this thing should be sent to the Son of Heaven by Brother Meng De, so that the Son of Heaven will know that the traitor of the Han Dynasty has been ambushed!" Lu An handed over the box.

"Brother Xian has a heart, he must be sent back to Xuchang to present to the Son of Heaven!" Cao Cao opened it and recognized that the head in the box was Yuan Zhang, so he carefully took it and handed it to Xiahou Yuan in the back to put it away. Yuan Shu's death actually played a big role for Cao Cao himself, making the princes of the world go against the Han Dynasty and claim the emperor's fate, which further stabilized the position of Emperor Xian of Han in his hands.

"Please, Brother Mengde!" Lu An arched his hand, then bowed slightly and invited: "Brother Meng De might as well go to the city where the puppet emperor Yuan Shu established his palace in this city before, why don't we go in and have a look?" “

"No need, the main reason for my brother is to meet the virtuous brother, and now that I have seen it, and Yuan Shu has also been ambushed, then the brother has to go back to Xuchang as soon as possible to dedicate his head to His Majesty!" Although the two sides are still allies, anything can happen in this troubled world, Cao Cao did not dare to enter the city controlled by Lu An at will, and refused again and again.

"Then the little brother won't keep Brother Mengde!" Lu An smiled lightly. He was naturally polite before, Cao Cao came with so many troops, how could he really be willing to invite the other party into Shouchun, of course, if the other party was willing to go in with only a few personal guards, it would be another matter.

"I'm quitting my brother!"

The two sides were very reluctant to "love each other", and in the end, Cao Cao still said goodbye to Lu An and left Huainan with his army.

"Lu Xuantong, this guy has really become cheeky, obviously he said before that he would help us fight Huainan, but he actually occupied the same territory as Lu Bu and didn't leave, which is really much worse than when he was in the Tiger Prison." On the way out, Xiahou Yuan, who was behind Cao Cao, snorted a little angrily. In the previous situation, he was angry, and he had obviously suffered a big loss, but he still had to pretend to be a good brother, so that he was really angry.

"Xuantong This is really a big weapon, although there was a comradeship back then, but the princes fought for hegemony, and any affection was not as good as their own foundation, if it were me, I would not let Huainan out." Cao Cao sighed. Before he came, he thought that this might happen, but he just wanted to think about it, but it was a different feeling with his own eyes.

"Right now, Lu Xuantong occupies Huainan and has already stepped into the Central Plains with half a foot, Meng De, do you say that we will fight him in the future?" Xiahou Yuan asked on a whim.

"Well, if we and him are still in this troubled world, then it will be a matter of time before we fight, I just hope this day doesn't come too soon." Cao Cao sighed.

"It's okay, Lu Bu has been defeated by us before, and this Lu Xuantong will be able to defeat him even if he fights at that time!" Xiahou Yuan comforted.

"What is Lu Bu, a brave and unscrupulous guy, he is just a beast in this troubled world, not a little worse than Lu Xuantong, if we really want to fight Lu Xuantong in the future, then he will be the strongest opponent in my Cao someone's life." Cao Cao said with a bit of a heavy face.

"No, lord, it's the first time you have such a high opinion of people, even Yuan Shao, you haven't said anything about him!" Xiahou Yuan said in disbelief.

"Although Yuan Shao is a personal masterpiece, his current foundation is inseparable from his famous background, and Lu Xuantong was born in a bitter cold, but it only took seven years to occupy the entire Yangzhou and Jingnan from a white body to now, and he is only in his twenties now, what am I doing in my twenties, and I was still walking birds in Luoyang with Yuan Shao at that time!" Cao Cao sighed.

"Huh!" Xiahou Yuan was speechless.

The news of Yuan Shu's complete defeat soon spread all over the north and south of the river, while shocking the people of the world, there are countless people who regret it, a good overlord of the Central Plains is completely ruined because of his ambition to be the emperor, which has sounded a wake-up call to the princes of the world, don't be in decline now, but if anyone dares to cross the pond fish, then Yuan Shu is a lesson from the past.

Jizhou, Yecheng

In the majestic hall of the state pastor's mansion is staggered, a team of singers stand in the hall and dance, and on the edge of the hall is sitting a cadre of Hebei people, they are sitting in their seats with great interest in the front of the dance, even Yuan Shao himself, is also sitting in front of the smile in front of this beautiful scene.

Obviously, Yuan Shao and they are in a good mood today, so they have such leisure and elegance to enjoy singing and dancing. And the reason why Yuan Shao is happy is also very simple, that is, Gongsun Zhan, who has been entangled with Yuan Shao for several years, was finally completely defeated a few days ago, and now he is trapped in a Yijing City, which means that if there are no other accidents, the entire land of Hebei will be completely controlled by Yuan Shao in a few days, so everyone has been very relaxed these days.

"Lord, although Gongsun Chan has been trapped in Yi Jing, he has built countless high-rise fortresses in Yi Jing, and has hoarded grain and grass for several years, I am afraid that he will continue to consume it with us, let's not take it lightly, in case Gongsun Chan is crazy at the last moment!" Among the people in the audience, only Don't drive Tian Feng still had a straight face to remind Yuan Shaodao.

"Don't worry, Yuan Hao, the more Gongsun Chan is like this, the more it means that he has reached a desperate situation, Zhang He, Gao Lan, Han Meng and others have surrounded Yi Jing heavily, Gongsun Chan is unable to escape even if he has wings, he can consume it if he wants, we are now sitting on the whole of Hebei, and I will be afraid that he will not succeed!" Yuan Shao smiled at Tian Feng and spoke. Although Tian Feng is very dismissive, Yuan Shao has no idea of bothering with him, because Tian Feng has always had this annoying stinky temper, but it is undeniable that he is very talented, so Yuan Shao thinks that he has enough metrics to accommodate him.

"It's good that the lord knows it!" Tian Feng nodded, and then sat down again.

"Hmph, this guy always likes to do this kind of superfluous thing to pretend to be a loyal minister, isn't this kind of trivial matter still unclear!" Around Tian Feng, more than half of the strategists cast dissatisfied eyes at Tian Feng at this time, feeling that the other party's approach was undoubtedly grandstanding, and deliberately used this method to show that he was different from others.

Tian Feng didn't have the eyes of his colleagues, or he didn't care, he just sat in his seat by himself, and rarely communicated with others, which made the people in Hebei on the side even more prejudiced against Tian Feng, the unsociable guy is undoubtedly the most annoying to them, everyone is human, why do you have to pretend to be high.

Of course, dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, but no one blames Tian Feng for this, most of the people still focus on the singing and dancing in the hall, and in this kind of celebration, the song and dance played by a beautiful woman is still very good.

"Lord!" At this moment, a guard rushed in and presented a letter to Yuan Shao.

"Huh?" Yuan Shao took the letter and opened it, and immediately changed, and immediately waved his hand to let the dancers in the hall retreat, and the smile on his face disappeared without a trace.

"Lord, what's going on?" As the head of Hebei, he is the object of everyone's attention all the time, seeing that Yuan Shao's face suddenly changed, the Hebei celebrities in the audience asked one after another.

"Yuan Shu was defeated in the hands of Lu Xuantong, and the head was also sent to the Son of Heaven in Xuchang!" Yuan Shao threw the letter to the side, and said with a sad and joyless expression.

"It's a good thing, my lord, so that my lord will be the rightful heir of the Yuan family!" Guo Tu in the audience clapped his hands and laughed.

"My Yuan family is dead, you're glad you are!" Seeing Guo Tu's smiling face, Yuan Shao showed a burst of anger on his face, and picked up a carnivorous Xiaoding from the side and smashed it.

"The villain doesn't dare!" Ding flew by his side dangerously, Guo Tu's face was full of cold sweat, although he was not hit by Xiao Ding, but it was true that Yuan Shao was angry, although he didn't know what was wrong, but he still hurriedly got down from his seat and knelt down.
