It was almost Chinese New Year's Eve, in the midst of the wind and snow, a piece of news spread wildly throughout the four states of Hebei: Yuan Xi was assassinated!

The assassin not only killed Yuan Xi's close general Han Heng, but also made Yuan Xi a cripple with a broken arm! And how can a cripple be qualified to guard this land of tigers and wolves in Youzhou?!

All of a sudden, there was a lot of discussion among the clans, government offices, and armies in Youzhou and even Jizhou and Qingzhou, if Yuan Xi, a person who he couldn't protect well, came to guard Youzhou, wouldn't it be for them to directly expose themselves to the ambitions and swords of the alien race...?!

And for Yuan Xi, what is even more fatal is that as soon as his eldest brother, Yuan Tan of Qingzhou, got such news, he stood up as soon as possible, "Youzhou is the northern gate of the Han Dynasty, and there is no room for loss!" For the sake of the Han Dynasty, it is incumbent on the foolish brother to take on this important responsibility for the second brother! ”

Seeing this, Yuan Shang on the Qingyou border was overjoyed, and immediately threatened: "Yuan Tan disregarded the friendship of his brothers, sent someone to assassinate the second brother, as the head of the Yuan family, with the order of the head of the family, Yuan Tan was bound and let go of Qingzhou!" …”

Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang's active speeches suddenly changed the situation in Qingyou Erzhou again!

Yuan Xi couldn't find the mastermind in the assassination, and he could only see the clues from the word [Si] on the clothes and swords left by the assassin, but this [Si] combined with Yuan Tan's positivity, isn't it also the best evidence?!

Yuan Tan, Yuan Xiansi!

Yuan Xi was immediately furious: close to love will be killed, and he will be reduced to a wasted person, this revenge will not be avenged, how can he eliminate the anger in his heart? !

"Someone, give the order!" Yuan Xi hugged the broken arm, his face was hideous, and he roared angrily: "Order the soldiers and horses to assemble!" If you don't take revenge, you won't be an army! ”

"Because I gave in so much, then Yuan Tan was so inch-inch, I will definitely ask him to do what he did. Take its toll! ”

"Second son, don't do it!" The middle-aged scribe behind Yuan Xi immediately spoke out to stop him: "The second prince must not send troops to Qingzhou so easily!" ”

"Not to mention whether it was the eldest prince's act this time, just such weather and such timing, it is not suitable to send troops!" He persuaded bitterly, from that word. It can be seen that this person is very knowledgeable!

But it was Xun Chen, Xun Youruo, Xun Yu's fourth brother, he was originally Yuan Shao's mastermind, after Yuan Shao's death, he went north and arrived at Yuan Xi's territory, and was living under Yuan Xi at this time.

"Besides. This time the assassin came strangely, and the assassination method was also extremely clever, according to the following opinion, there is no such person under the command of the eldest prince...! ”

"The one who plots under the command of the lord may be counted as one!" Xun Chen vaguely reminded,

"Trial, trial Zhengnan!" Yuan Xi was already carried away by anger at this time, and he heard the trial. immediately remembered that Yuan Shang, who had threatened him with his wife and daughter, his good third brother!

Suddenly. Humiliation and anger crept into my heart again!

"Since this is the case, then make Yuan Shang the vanguard, and I will personally lead 50,000 troops and supervise the battle behind it! Yuan Xi's anger did not diminish in the slightest, and as soon as he finished speaking, he threw away his sleeves...

In fact. In his heart, he still has a trace of thought, as long as he takes advantage of the situation to solve the two brothers this time, and then takes back the merger held by his cousin Gao Gan, then he can also compete with Cao Cao. There was even a chance to do something his father had never done!

And Xun Chen, he looked at Yuan Xi, who was leaving angrily, and opened his mouth, after all, he didn't have time to say the words that he didn't have confidence in, "Maybe Cao Cao provoked it, I don't know!" …”

So, with Yuan Xi's order, on the night of the New Year, the heavy snow and cold winter, the four states of Hebei finally started war!

Even, when Xianbei and other aliens outside the gate heard the news, they also prepared soldiers, horses, grain and grass, and sharpened their knives in spite of the wind, snow and winter, although they were ready to take this opportunity to attack Youzhou! They are fed up with this wild and cold grassland, and they don't know how long they have been coveting the land of **** Shangguo...

Perhaps, the four states of Hebei have never been really peaceful since the Zhangjiao Rebellion

……

In the midst of the wind and snow, Yuan Shang, who was forced to send troops helplessly, barely maintained the morale of the defeated army with the help of a few rare talents such as the trial, and brought the soldiers and horses to Qingzhou.

Looking at Yuan Xi, who was reluctant to follow behind him, and his 50,000 army, Yuan Shang felt bitter in his heart, if he retreated or fled, he was afraid that more than 10,000 people would be killed by Yuan Xi immediately, right? !

In order to survive and live, Yuan Shangyi gritted his teeth, and after some calculations with several strategists under his command, he decided: immediately attack the border of Qingzhou, Pingyuan County, as the basis for surviving in this cold winter.

Youzhou and Qingzhou are not directly bordered, which is separated by Bohai County of Jizhou, and around Nanpi City is a three-way buffer zone of Yuan Tan, Yuan Shang, and Cao Cao, or it can also be said that Cao Cao deliberately left a passage in order to let the Yuan brothers fight...

Cao Cao's army moved south, which also gave Yuan Xi a reason to suspect the two brothers

And looking at Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang, who are approaching step by step, how can Yuan Tan, who is easy to kill by nature, do [take a step back and open the sky]?!

"Come on, order all the soldiers and horses in Qingzhou to assemble!"

"Hmph, how can I, Yuan Tan, be comparable to those two waste?!"

Qingzhou, after millions of Qingzhou citizens and hundreds of thousands of Qingzhou soldiers surrendered to Cao Cao, Qingzhuang has long been not as good as before, but even so, it is still under Yuan Tan's rampant conquest and fierce collection, gathering a force of nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses

Thousands of plans, all kinds of coincidences, the three Yuan brothers are so light and the war is back again...

……

And they didn't notice that in Jizhou, Zhongshan and Julu County, there were tens of thousands of soldiers and horses hiding in each place at this time

In the county town of Julu, in the Cao family's mansion, there was a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old, whose face occasionally flashed a little gloomy, but who had a very literary atmosphere and the pride of his superiors, sat on the side, looked at a majestic general in the main seat, and said: "Uncle Zixiao, this time I sent troops, my nephew is willing to lead the vanguard!" Expand your father's territory! …”

"Zihuan, don't be anxious, at this time in the cold winter, the march is difficult, and the battle is even more difficult, and the three sons of the Yuan family will not be able to divide the victory and defeat so early,"

Zixiao is Cao Ren, and Zihuan is Cao Pi! They are the main generals of the four states of Hebei this time, and with them, there are also the old generals of Wenhou, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun who joined the Cao camp with Lu Bu, and more than a dozen Cao generals! In this way, Cao Cao's Hebei Army was formed, and Cao Ren was the governor of the war! …

"If you act too early and are discovered by the three Yuan brothers, won't your previous efforts be wasted?!" Cao Ren squinted at Cao Pi and taught, but in his heart he compared him with Cao Ang, who was crippled and bedridden, Cao Zhi, who was weak and modest, Cao Zhang, who was young and supernatural, Cao Chong, who was only seven years old and unusually intelligent, and Cao Biao, who was also seven years old but reckless and resolute....(To be continued.) )
