Thinking about it, it also seems normal.

Yuan Tan lost to Yuan Shang in terms of winning the heir, but he was not convinced.

He led his own chariot and rode the general and stationed in Liyang, to put it bluntly, he also wanted to use this to show his ability.

But Yuan Tan didn't expect that as soon as he occupied Liyang, he got the news that Cao Cāo had sent Yan Liang and Xu Yu to attack, so it was inevitable that he would panic.

He asked Yuan Shang for help, and I am afraid that it was also a last resort.

But when he learned that Yuan Shang and Liu Chuang had formed an alliance, he was afraid that he would be even more unhappy.

Speaking of which, the strength of the two Yuan is evenly matched. If you insist on dividing a higher one, Yuan Shang will be stronger than Yuan Tan by one point at most. And in Yuan Tan's hands, there is still half of Qingzhou that can be relied on...... But if Yuan Shang and Liu Chuang form an alliance, there will be many variables. Liu Chuang's arrogance has been undoubtedly revealed in the past two years. Whether it is to sweep Youzhou, or to dominate the north. Liu Chuang's status in northern Xinjiang has been established, and his status as an imperial uncle has made many people willing to cooperate with Liu Chuang......

With Liu Chuang's help, Yuan Shang was able to quickly stabilize the situation.

Even if Yuan Tan finally repelled Cao Cāo, he would not be able to save the situation that Yuan Shang's major event had already been decided.

Liu Chuang raised his head and suddenly asked, "Young Master Yang, why does Ling Zun want to show me?" ”

Yang Ming was a little nervous, and his voice trembled slightly, "Uncle Huang is a relative of the Han family, and he was ordered by the Son of Heaven to rejuvenate the Han family, and my father had already intended to defect. It's a pity that there is no way, so I haven't had a chance. Today, Uncle Huang dominates Youzhou, and he is even more powerful in Saibei, who doesn't know his prestige? My father was favored by the emperor back then, worshiped the captain of Montenegro, and now the emperor's uncle went south, and my father and son should abandon the darkness and serve the emperor's uncle. ”

Liu Chuang had already heard these clichés.

He stood up, walked to Yang Ming's side, and pressed his big hand on Yang Ming's shoulder, "Young Master Yang, go back and tell Sù Lingzun, just say that I already know his intentions."

This time I went to Yecheng to work hard for the future of my Han family.

Your father and son should be faithful to their duties, and not half-hearted. When the Han Dynasty is prosperous, I will be the son of tomorrow and ask for credit for your father and son. ”

Liu Chuang's words have actually accepted the surrender of Yang Feng's father and son.

But on the other hand, he also told Yang Feng and his son, don't make a noise, just do the things in front of you, and don't make a fuss.

Yang Ming is also a smart person, and he suddenly showed panic.

"The villain will follow the teachings of the imperial uncle and will live up to the high expectations of the imperial uncle."

He bowed, and then asked Liu Chuang to resign.

After sending Yang Ming away, Xu Chu couldn't help but ask, "Lord, is it possible that I still want to go to Yecheng later?" ”

"Could it be that Brother Tiger, are you afraid?"

Xu Chu's face suddenly turned red.

"Where did you start with this? I've experienced more dangerous things since I joined the lord, so how can I be afraid of Yecheng? ”

Liu Chuang, laughed!

He turned his head and looked at Lu Xun.

"Bo Yan, can you get ready?"

"Just by the orders of the emperor's uncle."

"Hehe, Yuan Xiansi is extremely stupid, not enough to conspire with him.

But now, we need Eryuan to give us a chance to breathe, so this cooperation is inevitable. If Yuan Shao is alive, I can't say that I will return to Youzhou now. But Yuan Shao is not here, and only one Yuan Tan is not enough to threaten me. I believe Yuan Shang also knows that I am now his best partner. In addition to working with me, I am afraid that he will have a hard time finding a suitable ally.

In this case, I just have to go to Yecheng and learn the methods of the Yuan family! ”

It's night, sour dates.

After Cao Cāo led his troops into Yanjin, he was ready.

However, since the opening of the chūn, Cao Cāo has had a headache attack, and the pain is unbearable.

Fortunately, he was accompanied by the imperial physician Zhi Xi and prescribed a pair of medicines for him. After Cao Cāo took the medicine, he sweated profusely, and his headache was reduced a lot, so he went to bed early.

But not long after he fell asleep, he was woken up.

"Lord, Guo Junshi has something urgent to see."

Guo Jia is now an official who worships the military and the priest to sacrifice wine, although the position is not obvious, but the authority is very heavy.

He came late at night, apparently with something important going on.

Although Cao Cāo's illness had just improved, he quickly got up and walked out of his clothes.

"Fengxiao, it's so late, what's the matter?"

"The third son is back!"

"Huh?"

Cao Cāo was stunned for a moment, and then reacted that the third son Guo Jia said was Cao Zhang.

"Didn't this Huang Xu'er accompany his sister in Youzhou, and what did he do when he came back?"

Guo Jia smiled bitterly: "After the third prince got off the boat in Donglai, he went straight to Huang County.

Now Donglai County Taishou Wang Xiu has ordered someone to protect the return of the third prince, it is estimated that this time has passed Taishan County, is going to Xudu. ”

Cao Cāo pondered for a moment and then sighed, "I'm back, I'm back." ”

He actually knew in his heart that when Cao Zhang came back, the relationship between him and Liu Chuang would be like fire.

Previously, Cao Zhang stayed in Youzhou, and there was still a bond between Cao Cāo and Liu Chuang. But now...... Liu Chuang also used this method to show Cao Cāo his attitude: There will inevitably be a battle between the two of us. In that case, let the horses come.

For Liu Chuang, Cao Cāo's feelings have always been complicated.

The difference in thought at the beginning created the hostile form between him and Liu Chuang.

With Liu Chuang's rise in Youzhou, the relationship between the two was completely broken.

Cao Cāo smiled bitterly, and then stood up, "Since that's the case, let's see what skills he Liu Mengyan has."

Feng Xiao, Liu Chuang and Yuan Shang united, what is the situation now? ”

Guo Jia replied: "According to the report, Liu Chuang has crossed the Hutuo River this morning and is on his way to Yecheng......

"He's coming so fast!"

Cao Cāo took a deep breath, and then immediately said, "Since that's the case, then I can't let him be too comfortable.

Ordered Yan Liang and Xu You, and ordered him to cross the river and attack Liyang. In order to order Xu Huang and Cao Hong to march towards Huang Ze, it is necessary to seize Neihuang as much as possible. ”

Winning Neihuang is equivalent to cutting off Liyang's way back.

Cao Cāo was determined to give Liu Chuang a dismissal, and naturally there would be no mercy at this time.

Guo Jia bowed down to receive the order, and then said: "Zhang Yan's ...... over there"

"Zhang Yan's matter is still presided over by Fengxiao in person, and you must do your best to make Zhang Yan attached.

As for the Battle of Dawn, you don't have to bother. With Wenhe and Gongda here, even if Liu Chuang comes, he may not be able to save the situation......"

Guo Jia nodded, and then took his leave.

Just as Liu Chuang took a fancy to Zhang Yan's millions of Black Mountain thieves, Cao Cāo's eyes were also fixed on Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army.

That's a million people!

I think that at the beginning, Cao Cāo won the million-dollar Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou to completely stabilize the situation in Yanzhou. If Zhang Yan can be recruited, it will definitely add an important weight to the battle of Hebei. However, Cao Cāo also knew that it would not be easy to recruit Zhang Yan. That Zhang Yan led a million Black Mountain thieves to survive until now, even Yuan Shao couldn't help him, which shows that this person is not simple.

Just by the benefit of words, you want Zhang Yan to surrender?

Cao Cāo never thought of it that way.

Only after the soldiers pressed the realm and proved it with their strength, Zhang Yan could make up his mind.

So now, it is the best time for Cao Cāo to show Zhang Yan's strength......

However, the union of Liu Chuang and Yuan Shang is a variable. Since the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cāo's views of Liu Chuang have changed dramatically. In the past, he admitted that Liu Chuang had some means, but it was no more. More often, he still thinks that Liu Chuang is just lucky.

can accompany Liu Chuang to sweep Liaodong, sweep Youzhou, and capture Daxianbei Mountain.

Cao Cāo already regarded Liu Chuang as a confidant.

Even in the Battle of Cangting, when Cao Jun was at its most critical, Cao Cāo's gaze had shifted from Yuan Shao's body to Liu Chuang, who was far away in Youzhou. It can be said that Liu Chuang's grasp and control of the timing made Cao Cāo feel frightened and even jealous.

This guy is not just lucky!

After Guo Jia took his leave, Cao Cāo sat alone in the room, but he was completely sleepy.

He lingered, and after a while, he sat down again, picked up a copy of "The Thirteen Chapters of Sun Wu", and looked at it with some absent-mindedness. He had to think clearly about what kind of trouble Liu Chuangruo would bring to himself after he arrived in Yecheng. However, Cao Cāo was already able to determine that once Liu Chuang and Yuan Shang reached a cooperation, the turbulent situation in Jizhou would soon calm down, and the impact of Yuan Shao's illness and death would be weakened.

This guy is really a tough master to deal with!

The reason why Liu Chuang and Yuan Shang are united? Cao Cāo knew it.

Don't look at Liu Chuang's successive victories before, but behind that series of victories, it has never been able to hide the truth of Youzhou's fatigue. Liu Chuang suddenly changed his mind and cooperated with Yuan Shang, I am afraid this is precisely the reason. He needed Yuan Shang to stop his footsteps to the north, and even did not hesitate to come to Yecheng to fight for a respite for Youzhou. And this scene, Cao Cāo seems to be familiar. When Liu Chuang was in Guangling, didn't he also use such a trick in exchange for a respite in Beihai and Donglai, and then he was able to calmly arrange and go to Liaodong.

Only this time, I will never fall for you again......

"Someone!"

"Whoa."

"Immediately invite Jia Junshi to come, and say that I have an urgent matter and want to discuss with him."

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

At the end of January of the seventh year of Jian'an, Yan Liang led his troops to cross the Yellow River and approached the city of Liyang.

When Yuan Tan learned that Cao's army had arrived in the city, he hurriedly led his troops to the top of the city and scolded Yan Liang.

If Yuan Shao reprimanded, Yan Liang would be ashamed. But what is Yuan Tan? When Lao Tzu assisted your father, you weren't bullshit.

Therefore, Yuan Tan scolded him, not only failed to make Yan Liang retreat, but completely angered Yan Liang.

He jumped out of battle and fought under the city of Liyang.

However, Yan Liang's reputation was so loud that no one under Yuan Tan's tent dared to go out of the city to face the battle.

Seeing that Yuan Tan refused to fight, Yan Liang was even more verbose. After consulting with Xu You, he ordered a strong attack on Liyang...... More than 50 thunderbolt cars lined up and marched under the city of Liyang, and with Yan Liang's order, Cao's army launched a fierce attack on Liyang like cháo water.

Yuan Tan did not dare to slack off, and while commanding Yuan's army to hold on, he sent people to Yecheng to ask Yuan Shang for help.

At this time, Liu Chuang's soldiers and horses happened to arrive in Yecheng.

Yuan Shangqin led Yecheng civil and military to meet outside the city, and saw a team of cavalry coming from a distance, the banner greeted the hunting in the sun, and the book 'Uncle Huang of the Han Dynasty, the general of the chariot cavalry', in the middle of a big 'Liu' word, pinched the gold edge and walked the silver line, which was particularly eye-catching.

Yuan Shang recognized at a glance that Liu Chuang, who was at the forefront of the team.

It's been four years since I last met Liu Chuang.

At that time, Liu Chuang was just a small prince who had just risen, if he wasn't the son of Liu Tao, I'm afraid Yuan Shang might not have taken him to heart.

But now, when people say that Liu Chuang, he will be called the emperor's uncle.

On the contrary, Liu Tao's name seems to be no longer mentioned by people...... Because of Liu Chuang's momentum today, it has long overshadowed Liu Ziqi back then.

This also made Yuan Shang feel very uncomfortable.

Seeing that the people who were not as good as him back then are now famous.

And what about Yuan Shang?

If it weren't for Yuan Shao's death, I'm afraid it would still be unknown. Even though he has now inherited Yuan Shao's position, Yuan Shao's influence still exists. People say that Yuan Shang will become the third son of Yuan Gong...... Before he really controlled Jizhou and made a career, it was impossible for him to eliminate the influence of Yuan Shao. Looking at Liu Chuang, Yuan Shang's mood was extremely complicated. On the surface, however, he did not show it. When Liu Chuang approached, Yuan Shang took a deep breath and stepped forward to greet Liu Chuang.

Liu Chuang also saw Yuan Shang early, but he didn't rush forward to salute.

However, when Yuan Shang came out of the crowd, Liu Chuang's heart couldn't help but move, and he couldn't help but look up to Yuan Shang a little higher.

If this is changed to Yuan Tan, I am afraid that the gentleman will definitely put on a full shelf, waiting for himself to step forward, instead of taking the initiative to meet him.

If Yuan Shao only had one son, Yuan Shang, it would be a different situation in Hebei!

Yuan Shangying came over, and Liu Chuang naturally couldn't continue to handle it.

He turned over and dismounted, walked a few steps quickly, and waved his hand before Yuan Shang could speak, "Third son, don't come unharmed." ”

Different from when they met in Linjing, the childishness on Yuan Shang's face has been reduced a lot, and it has been replaced by a kind of calmness for the superior.

Seeing Liu Chuang's first salute, Yuan Shang was stunned.

But he immediately came to his senses, and hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Liu Chuang's hand, "Uncle Lao Huang is worried...... However, Uncle Huang is now more prosperous. I am even more grateful to be able to pull out the knife to help this time. Come, come, I have set up a banquet, and I am about to drink with the emperor's uncle. ”

The last time Yuan Shang and Liu Chuang met, they were hostile to each other.

At that time, Yuan Shang was thinking of marrying Xun Dan, and he had increased his position in Yuan Shao's mind. At that time, Liu Chuang and Xun Dan had not yet married, and the two could be described as rivals in love and hostile to each other. For this reason, Liu Chuang also killed Yuan Shang's general 'Great Ape King' Wei Yuanjin and won Yuan Shang's beloved horse.

Later, however, the two reconciled.

Yuan Shang was besieged by Taishan thieves, but fortunately Liu Chuang sent troops to rescue him, so he could be regarded as escaping.

Only after that, the two never saw each other again. After Liu Chuang relieved the siege of Yuan Shang, he hurriedly left Linzi for 200 horses and returned to Beihai...... Later, Yuan Shang also helped Liu Chuang once, but after that, the two never crossed paths.

This ......

Whether it is Liu Chuang or Yuan Shang, they are all emotional.

Regardless of the relationship between the two in the past, but now, the two of them must be in the same boat to fight against Cao Cāo.

Yuan Shang couldn't help but peek at Liu Chuang, who knew that Liu Chuang was also looking at him.

The two looked at each other and smiled in unison...... Originally, Yuan Shang was still a little hesitant, but with the laughter of the two, he became firm.

There are no eternal enemies in this world, only eternal interests!

Liu Chuang sighed lightly in his heart, and walked into Yecheng with Yuan Shang...... (To be continued.) )
