"Report! King Qi, the white horse is urgently reporting!"
Yuan Shao, who was drinking and having fun with his fellow civil servants, was suddenly alarmed by the urgent report from the messenger.
What is this Yan Liang doing? Has he already forced Cao A'ao into Puyang? If that's the case, even my army can cross the river, right?
Because Liyang is only across a river from Baima in Henan, Yan Liang would send people to Yuan Shao to express his gratitude to Yuan Shao almost every day after forcing Cao Jun back. This also made Yuan Shao extremely knowledgeable about the battle situation on the front line.
What makes Yuan Shao strange is, why are the messengers so panicked today? Or are they reporting urgently? What are they doing?
"Speak! What happened to Yan Liang? Did he hide Cao A and force him into Puyang?
Or is it that Yan Liang was defeated by Cao Aman?"
If the report is urgent, it is not impossible for Yan Liang to fail.
Yuan Shao has already been prepared for this.
After all, Yan Liang only led 50,000 troops. If Cao Aman was really desperate, Yan Liang would definitely not be his opponent.
But Yuan Shao was happy to see the success.
My family is rich, so what if your 50,000-strong army is wiped out by Cao Cao?
As long as you fight with my forward army until your bones are broken, then when my army marches south, it will naturally take your Yanzhou directly like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
"King Qi! Yan Liang, General Yan Liang was killed in battle!
Our army was severely defeated by Cao's cavalry, and now General Han Meng has led our army to retreat to Baima."
!!!
No matter what Ren Yuan Shao was thinking, he never expected that Yan Liang would be defeated so simply and lose his own life?
"Tell me! How did Yan Liang die!"
You must know that Yan Liang was Yuan Shao's most respected general. How could Yuan Shao not feel distressed when he died here inexplicably?
It's just so strange. Didn't all the generals under Cao Ah'an have already fought against Yan Liang? Wasn't there no one who was Yan Liang's opponent?
As for Yan Liang being besieged and killed, Yuan Shao didn't believe it.
Just kidding, Yan Liang is not a fool. He won't run away when he sees the enemy attacking him?
With the protection of cavalry, how could he be surrounded and die?
"King Qi! Yan Liang was killed in front of the battle by a general with a white horse and silver armor."
What should I play?
White horse and silver armor? Does that guy Cao Ahao have such a general under his command? Why hasn't the lonely king heard of it? And why hasn't it appeared before? Did he just come here?
Yes, that must be the case. Didn't the soldiers say before that Cao Jun has cavalry? Then this must be Cao Ahao's trump card, right?
It turned out that when Xiang Ji was fighting Yan Liang, he was too far away from the two armies, so only Yan Liang, who was fighting with him, heard the name Xiang Ji reported.
This is just like Guan Yu beheading Yan Liang in history.
Also after Yan Liang was beheaded, Yuan Shaojun had no idea whose hands Yan Liang died in.
"Come here! Go quickly and send an order to Wen Chou in Qingzhou, asking him to hand over his troops to Gao Lan.
The lonely king would like to see who this general under Cao Ahao's command is."
Yan Liang was beheaded, so Yuan Shao could only call in Wen Chou, the most powerful man under his command.
A loser does not lose, so Yuan Shao decided to have another fight with Cao Cao. He didn't believe that the general under the command of the lonely king was worse than Cao Cao.
But just as Yuan Shao was dispatching his troops, someone in Cao's camp was about to leave.
"Gongming, have you thought about it? Do you really want to abandon the master at this time?"
Looking at Xu Huang carrying the package, Man Chong, who was Xu Huang's friend, quickly asked him.
What do you think of Xu Huang? If you leave at this time, aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by the world?
You know, in ancient times, loyalty and credibility were very important.
If a person's conduct is bad, or he turns his back on his lord when he is weak without any reason, this will have a huge impact on his reputation.
Just like when modern people are applying for jobs, if you often change jobs when the company is in trouble, if the subsequent company knows about your past, it will not reuse you.
"Bo Ning, I must abandon Duke Cao.
But, is today's Cao Gong still the same Cao Gong as before?
Is he still the same Duke Cao who took it as his mission to help the Han Dynasty?
Changed, everything has changed.
Today's Duke Cao, in order to maintain his authority, even befriends the traitor Xiang Ji, and even marries his daughter as a concubine?
As a good and upright man, how can I, Xu Huang, follow such a lord?"
Xu Huang could only explain a few words about his only friend in Cao Camp.
You can't tell him that I can't defeat Xiang Ji and I can't afford to humiliate him, right?
You know, ever since I shouted the slogan of revenge for Emperor Xian, my label has been set, and I must be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty.
But now, does Cao Cao still act like a loyal minister? He actually went to befriend Xiang Ji in order to deal with Yuan Shao?
So how do I, Xu Huang, behave in Cao’s camp?
As for his next home after leaving Cao Cao? Xu Huang has already thought about it.
There are still two emperors in the south. Regardless of whether they are orthodox or not, at least they are the emperors of the old Liu family.
It's better to work for others yourself than to live under someone else's roof, right?
Through the previous fight with Xiang Ji, Xu Huang had clearly felt that the attitude of Cao Ying's generals had changed towards him.
If I don’t leave now, I’m afraid it won’t be reused in the future.
"Gongming, I naturally know that you are a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty.
But are you willing? Now that the traitor Xiang Ji is in this big tent, are you willing to let him be so free?"
Being fooled by Xu Huang, Man Chong also became passionate.
After all, in these days, although the Han Dynasty was in decline, the slogans of loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty still had unparalleled appeal to ordinary people.
"What? So what if you don't want to give in? A certain family can't compete with that title."
What, you still want to trick me into asking for trouble again?
You can pull me down, I was almost killed in seconds a few days ago.
During the day today, wasn't the extremely powerful Yan Liang also killed instantly?
I still want to mess with him? I’m not afraid of longevity?
Of course, Xu Huang would not say these words to anyone.
"Of course not, that Xiang Ji is invincible, so a head-on confrontation will certainly not work.
However, you must not forget that Duke Cao wants to marry that person.
And the protagonist of the marriage, the eldest lady Cao Ziran, is also in this army!"
Hearing what Man Chong said, Xu Huang was stunned.
Damn it, what does this mean? Why are you studying Cao Cao's daughter? I just can't survive anymore and want to change my career and start a new development!
But how did he know that Man Chong had never been reused since he worked for Cao Cao. It was impossible to say that he had no resentment in his heart.
Now that I have the opportunity, I naturally want to take revenge.
Moreover, kidnapping Cao Ziran might destroy the alliance between the two families.
At that time, some people will be very interested.
