Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

"Bang bang bang."

Cao Jun's crossbowmen kept firing, trying to stop the opponent's progress.

Unfortunately, Wancheng's crossbowmen were also elite. They kept blocking with shields and pushing forward, forcing the Wancheng defenders into the city.

"Kill!" The Wancheng defenders entered Wancheng and immediately killed Cao Jun's infantry.

"No!" Cao Cao shouted in horror when he saw this scene.

Suddenly an arrow fell from the sky and landed in front of Cao Cao, scaring Cao Cao out of his wits.

The arrow was stuck in the ground, and the tail of the arrow trembled slightly.

Cao Cao knew that the battle was a foregone conclusion, so he quickly evacuated the place with his soldiers.

the other side

Cao Ang returned to the military camp. Xia Houyuan saw this and hurriedly came up to him. He asked about the situation with concern: "General, are you okay?"

"It's okay! I'm fine!" Cao Ang said with a smile.

Cao Ang's smile made Xia Houyuan feel warm in his heart, just like the sunshine in winter, dispelling all the gloom.

In such a long time, he had never seen Cao Ang smile so brightly.

In his impression, Cao Ang was always silent and cold, giving people a feeling of being thousands of miles away, as if nothing could impress him.

But now, Cao Ang's expression was obviously much more relaxed, and he felt very friendly.

Xia Houyuan couldn't help but sigh secretly when he remembered the scene where he followed all the soldiers to cheer Cao Ang's victory.

As expected, he is a general who can maintain his composure and coolness even in difficult situations.

And he believes that such a powerful opponent must be dealt with with all his strength!
Otherwise, you will only be the one who suffers in the end.

"Since the general is fine, I can rest assured!" Xia Houyuan said respectfully.

"Yes!" Cao Ang nodded and glanced around.

When he noticed that there seemed to be fewer soldiers around him, a trace of worry appeared on his eyebrows, "Where are the other brothers?"

"The general and others know that the general has returned safely. In order not to disturb the general's rest, they are still on standby!"

Xia Houyuan explained.

After listening to Xia Houyuan's words, Cao Ang nodded with satisfaction: "Thank you for your hard work!"

"The general will not dare!" Xia Houyuan said quickly.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Ang asked a few more questions.

When he knew that Cao Hong, Xu Chu and Dian Wei were all safe, he was relieved.

These three are rare warriors under Cao Cao, especially Dian Wei, who has superb martial arts skills and is by no means an easy person.

Then, he walked towards the camp and gave instructions to Xia Houyuan.

"Tonight, I need a good rest. If there are any urgent military matters, please inform me!"

"No!" Xia Houyuan replied.

Cao Ang slowly entered the tent, closed the heavy curtain, and sat in front of the table.

He picked up a brush and wrote a letter, and sent it to Cao Cao's mansion with his escort.

The next day, Cao Ang woke up early.

He slept particularly soundly last night, because in his dream, he actually saw Cao Cao and chatted with him all night.

Cao Cao told him that he was getting old and might not be able to continue leading everyone in the war.

I hope he can replace himself in the future and become the pillar of the Han Dynasty.

"Alas." Cao Ang shook his head helplessly after waking up.

He knew that Cao Cao's illness was getting worse and worse. If you continue to delay, your death will probably be close. At this time, the guard knocked on the door and whispered: "General, the military counselor sent someone here to see you for something."

"Oh, I understand." Cao Ang agreed.

He knew that Li Ru had something to discuss with him, so he dressed and washed before walking out of the camp.

When he arrived at Li Ru's residence, he found Li You also standing in the courtyard.

After the two met, they saluted each other.

Li You said with a smile: "Master is here, come, let's talk while drinking tea!"

Cao Ang nodded and followed Li You into the house. After drinking a cup of tea, he heard him mention the battle that happened last night.

"Mr. Fengxiao really predicts things like a god!" Cao Ang said with emotion.

"Hahaha, Mr. Fengxiao's resourcefulness is not comparable to that of us!"

Li You praised, but there was a glimmer of light in the depths of his eyes, and he did guess that this matter had something to do with Liu Yu.

But there is no evidence. After all, Liu Yu hid it very well.

"My lord's ingenuity is beyond our reach, otherwise how could we possibly repel the Huns!"

Cao Ang said equally modestly, but this sentence came from the heart.

Li You showed a pleased expression. He was very satisfied with Cao Ang's performance, so he changed the topic.

"I called you here today because I want to ask you for something."

"Even if my uncle orders me, my nephew will do his best to help his uncle complete his mission!" Cao Ang said solemnly.

"You are now a hussar general, and you are qualified to know more things." Li You said.

"In the past few days, I have collected a lot of information, and some of it is related to His Majesty, or to some of his people."

After finishing speaking, Li You stared at Cao Ang.

Cao Ang was stared at by Li You so much that goosebumps appeared all over his body. He couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and asked, "What is your uncle referring to?"

“You should know that His Majesty controls a huge army.

Although His Majesty handed over this army to the Prime Minister, no one knows their specific number. "Li You muttered.

"I doubt that your Majesty has sent this army around Luoyang during this period."

"This." Cao Ang looked at Li You in shock, with a bad feeling in his heart. He vaguely guessed what Li You wanted to say.

Li You continued: "Think about it, why would His Majesty's army be sent near Luoyang at such a critical moment?"

After Cao Ang thought for a moment, he suddenly realized: "Uncle is saying that Your Majesty wants to capture Luoyang!"

"That's right!" Li You said with certainty, "Your Majesty wants to take advantage of the opportunity of conquering the Huns to capture Luoyang.

If I guess correctly, His Majesty's troops will take action in the near future. "

Cao Ang was shocked. This news was so shocking. He couldn't imagine that Liu Xie would actually have Luoyang's idea.

"Why did your Majesty do this?" Cao Ang asked doubtfully.

Li You snorted coldly: "Do you still need to ask? It's because Yuan Shao is also coveting you! Your Majesty is just following the trend."

Cao Ang instantly understood that Liu Xie was taking advantage of Yuan Shu's greed for Jizhou to make Yuan Shu bear the infamy, thereby achieving the purpose of weakening Jizhou.

It's just that Liu Xie's doing this will not do him any good.

Cao Ang had the urge to question Liu Xie, but finally resisted.

He is not Liu Xie's minister yet. Even if he wants to question him, he should not be the one to speak.

Li You continued: "I think this is the best time to take action!"

Cao Ang nodded slightly: "That makes sense." (End of this chapter)
