Yuan Tan only thought that Zhou Cang was going to force his father to exchange him for his two younger brothers, after all, this was an exchange of two, although it was not reasonable at all, but it would definitely not be compensated. [Ran^Text^Library] []☆☆m~wonderful~oriental~~☆☆ He was afraid that his father would agree, so he had a murderous intent and drew his sword to kill Zhou Cang.

What is Zhou Cang doing to eat, he is one step away from the unparalleled fierce general. I saw him dodge and dodge, and then flew up with a kick.

"Wow!" Yuan Tan, who was kicked out, fell and his face bloomed.

In the splash of blood, Hebei's civil and military forces were shocked.

Yan Liang, Wen Chou and the others couldn't stand still any longer, and stepped forward one after another to catch Zhou Cang.

However, things took a 180-degree turn, only to hear Yuan Shao say angrily: "Stop! He said angrily to Yuan Tan again: "Your second brother and brother have wolf hearts and dog lungs, is your conscience also eaten by dogs?" ”

Yuan Shao was also very angry, and began to scold his son in front of Wenwu.

Yuan Tan suddenly realized, and said that he wanted to leave a good impression in his father's heart, and at this moment he also saw that Yuan Shao definitely had no intention of exchanging him, so he immediately threw the sword, turned over and fell to the ground, "Father, the child is just angry at Zhou Cang's aggressiveness for a while." The child is willing to change his two younger brothers. ”

Yuan Shao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You still have a conscience!" He seemed to be dozens of years old for a moment, and said, "General Zhou, what do you have for me?" Although it is a tone of mental weakness, it gives people a feeling that they must be obeyed.

Zhou Cang also said: "Duke Yuan, if you don't accept the sincere exchange of my lord, then agree to other conditions of my lord's father-in-law, and raise materials as soon as possible and send them to Huguan." Please rest assured, your supplies will set off, and my lord will definitely treat the two sons well, and nothing will happen. ”

Yuan Shao nodded, waved his hand, and said, "Xiansi, you are in charge of this matter." Mobilize supplies from the states as soon as possible to get your brother back. Go down, all of you. ”

Everyone left, and Tian Feng and Fu Zhu stayed until the end, and when they bowed down and wanted to say something, Yuan Shao, who was lying on his back, said first, "The two gentlemen don't need to say much, when the summer harvest next year is the day of the army, before that, be prepared." Pass my order to transfer Yan Liang, Zhang He, and Tian Feng to Qingzhou and launch an offensive against Xuzhou. ”

Tian Feng and Fu Zhi glanced at each other, and now Yuan Shao's strength is not as good as before, which comes from two defeats to Gao Yuan. Now, having to give Gao Yuan a large amount of materials in exchange for the two sons, Yuan Jun can no longer maintain the advantage of comprehensively suppressing the surrounding enemies. Recently, news came that Cao Cao was planning to recapture Hanoi, and at this time, the northwest garrison, and the southeast to use troops against Liu Bei, who was weak, was the best strategy.

The two felt that although the Yuan family was a little shaky at present, it was not so bad that it could not hurt the fundamentals, and although the lord was hit hard, he had the wisdom he had when he started the business. This is also a good tempering for the Yuan family.

When he withdrew, Tian Feng said: "Gao Yuan's sudden appearance is a whetstone. In that year, Lü Fengxian suddenly seized Gunzhou, and Cao Mengde survived the hardships he brought and thus took charge of the entire Central Plains. And this time, although Gao Mengyan seized the annexed state, it was my lord's opportunity. ”

However, he was a little worried, "Is it just a whetstone?" He couldn't help but think of the astrological signs he saw that day, that there would be a new Lord in the Northland.

Tian Feng said with a smile: "Although Cao Mengde owns the lands of Yuzhou, Guandong, Guanxi, and Guanzhong, the Central Plains has not been turbulent several times, and he will never be the opponent of the lord." As long as Gao Mengyan is defeated, my lord will be able to go south and seize the world. ”

……

Zhou Cang returned to Huguan with the families of Chen Lin and others, and brought Gao Yuan the news of Yuan Shao's sincere exchange.

Gao Yuan hurriedly sent someone to escort his family members to Jinyang to reunite with Chen Lin and others, and then came to the prison again to inquire about the current situation of the two sons and daughters of the Yuan family at the head of the cell.

The cell boss was quite touched: "These two brothers don't say a word to each other, just like killing their father's enemy." ”

Gao Yuan smiled slightly, what he wanted was this effect, put it back, and the fun would be big enough. When he walked into the cell, Yuan Xi and the others worshiped as if they saw the sun. They couldn't live in this environment anymore, and Yuan Shang begged: "General Gao, it's too cold on the ground, can you give me a seat." ”

It's going to be nine cold days, and it's really cold enough. Gao Yuan smiled: "Your eldest brother is unwilling to change you, Xi Qi is no longer of any use to you." ”

Yuan Xi and the others were shocked and scolded Yuan Tan for not having brotherhood.

Zhou Cang said on the side: "Your eldest brother is still going to kill me and stop the transaction." ”

Yuan Xi's hearts fell to the bottom, and they scolded Yuan Tan even more.

Gao Yuan's voice changed and said: "But General Ben is very sincere, and your father is not as ruthless as your eldest brother." Therefore, I have come this time to take you out to live. He said to Yuan Shang again: "You don't need to send Xi Shu here." ”

Under the great turn of high and low, under the great sorrow and joy, the two sons of the Yuan family collapsed to the ground.

The limbs are constantly twitching ~ twitching.

Half a month later, news came from Zhang Liao that tens of thousands of Cao Cao's troops had gathered in Luoyang.

Gao Yuan was worried, this came from the uninterrupted offensive of the two princes. He could see that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao wanted to take advantage of his immature strength to eliminate him in one go. He walked out of the council hall, looked at the snowy sky, and tightened the fur on his body, he didn't think that Cao Cao would march in this snowy winter.

Because the logistics supply in ancient times was not as good as in modern times, it was not easy to attack the city in the cold weather, and the army froze to death.

"Lord, Yuan Tan is here with a convoy."

Zhou Cang's voice suddenly came from behind him.

For Gao Yuan now, the most important thing is to complete the transaction in front of him. As a result, he will receive a large amount of supplies and build a solid foundation for the future.

Outside the Huguan, there is a white world, and there is no road in sight. In the endless snow, a huge convoy slowly approached.

Both sides began the transaction with the necessary "sincerity".

As the last car was pushed into the pot by the soldiers, a huge deal of 100,000 loads of grain, 5 million yuan, and 10,000 pairs of armor was completed.

"You've got a good dad!" This is Gao Yuan's emotion when he let go of Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi, these two people do have a good father, and Gao Yuan, he will fight step by step in this troubled world.

In the squeak, the door of the pot opened again, and Yuan Xi and Yuan Xi's thin figures walked in the snow.

When the two of them came to their own army, they were really relieved.

However, there was a sneering voice, "If I had committed suicide a long time ago, I would have delayed my father's great cause!" ”

The two of them smelled the familiar voice, and when they looked up, it was Yuan Tan. Seeing that he was arrogant and sitting on a tall horse in a gorgeous cotton coat, the aggrieved two brothers burst out in anger.

"Come down, you!"

"Oops!"

"Beat him!"

Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang joined forces and beat Yuan Tan violently, and when they beat like a pig's head, the surrounding Yuan soldiers came to their senses.

"Stop fighting, stop fighting!" Wen Chou, the general of the army, hurriedly pulled the fight, and more than a dozen people worked together, which rescued Yuan Tan from Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang's fists and feet.

……

Speaking of Gao Yuan, while obtaining materials, he also won the allegiance of Chen Lin, Xin Bi, Yan Rou, and Tian Yu, which can be said to be both human and financial.

He won many times and managed to gain a firm foothold in the state. Moreover, the north bank of the Yellow River belongs to Hedong County and Pingyang County of Sili, and there are no generals and no soldiers.

In this way, Gao Yuan obtained the Yellow River defense line, so that Cao Cao would lose too much suddenness and initiative militarily. However, for Gao Yuan, everything is still a long way to go.

And Cao Cao, who lost the three counties, did not give him respite at all, and after the 30,000 troops gathered in Luoyang, he established the Jiangbei camp. Gao Yuan didn't have time to recruit troops, which put great pressure on him, who only had thousands of soldiers. Fortunately, after Yuan Shao lost too many supplies, he was very calm, which allowed Gao Yuan to avoid the dilemma of fighting on two fronts.

So, in order to resist the pressure of Cao Cao's heavy troops, Gao Yuan moved his base camp to Hanoi to guard the Yellow River defense line, which was also close to Huguan.

In the blink of an eye, December, the closer to the beginning of spring, the more frequent the movement of soldiers and horses in the Cao army camp in Jiangbei. This let Gao Yuan know that another big war was about to break out. And Cao Cao, who only had 5,000 soldiers and horses in his hands to garrison Hanoi, and Cao Cao, who had a lot of soldiers, cast a thick shadow on Gao Yuan and his forces.

With the more frequent mobilization of Cao Cao's troops and horses, although the counties under Gao Yuan's command were still under his orders, the officials began to wait and see in private, too many people did not think that Gao Yuan could defeat Cao Cao, and perhaps, the annexation of the state would change hands immediately.

Many people began to secretly write to Cao Cao to avoid being affected after Gao Yuan's defeat.

Therefore, although Gao Yuan has obtained the annexation of Zhou and Hanoi, he has become a thorn in the side of the two hegemons of the Central Plains and the North, and his situation is even more difficult
