Chapter 524

On the bank of the Yellow River, Baima City.

The large forces of the Yuan family are crossing the river one after another.

After Cao Jun lost the tiger and leopard cavalry, he was powerless to stop it.

in the city.

In the official office.

Yuan Shao was sitting in the hall, and all the high-level personnel were present, discussing the matter of future military advances.

I am very happy to see Prime Minister Yuan's face.

Annihilated Cao Jun's tiger and leopard cavalry, the enemy had no mobile power, and the initiative was completely in his hands.

Yuan Shao stroked his beard and looked down calmly, "Who wants to go to Puyang?"

"The general wishes to go!"

"The general wishes to go!"

"The general wishes to go!"

"The general wishes to go!"

Yan Liangwen Chou, Zhang He Gao Lan, and Hebei Sitingzhu all stood up.

Now Yuan Shao is divided into three factions, one lineage of the eldest son, one lineage of the third son, and the neutral faction.

These four are all neutral factions, and there are many counselors and generals in Jushou Tianfeng, Xu Youchun, Yuqiong and Jiang Yiqu.

Prime Minister Yuan was very relieved, not only his son could fight, but he also had many trump cards.

"Father, the child is willing to go!"

When everyone saw it, they thought it was Yuan Tan, but they didn't expect it to be Yuan Shang.

The third son had just fought a 'big defeat', logically speaking, he should hide his strength and bide his time, but he still wants to go out to fight?

Yuan Shang said sternly: "Father, the previous defeat was entirely the child's fault. But when someone does not fail, please give the child another chance!"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, Yuan Shang's troops were completely wiped out, losing 30,000 people, which was a great loss to the entire Yuan Army.

This was because Yuan Shao used him as a bait, and it was also due to his own improper command.

But anyway,

Yuan Shao knew something was going to happen and didn't say anything, it must be wrong.

Some things cannot be clearly stated, Yuan Shao will be less blamed by the world if Yuan Shang took the initiative to take the blame. At the same time, these words also reminded Yuan Shao how wronged he was.

Yuan Shao did feel guilty.

He knew very well that this was entirely the result of the two sons' conspiracy with each other.

Yuan Tan calculated Yuan Shang.

Before that, Yuan Shang did not scheming against Yuan Tan.

It's Yuan Shao himself, so why hasn't he been scheming all the time.

Now that Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry have been wiped out in sevens and eighties, there is nothing to fear.

Yuan Cheng is very confident about future wars.

And the eldest son has made too many contributions. If he sweeps the Central Plains again, he may not be able to suppress it.

At this moment, it was supposed to be reported to the imperial court, and Yuan Tan came to be the general, commanding the army to march south.

Don't mention it now.

Yuan Shao stood up, "Be brave after knowing your shame..."

With five words, everyone will know the result.

"You are able to stand up from the setbacks, and I am very pleased. This time, I will give you a chance to take the blame and make meritorious deeds. I will allocate 30,000 troops under your command, and then send Yan Liang and Wen Chou, each with 10,000 troops, to attack Puyang .”

Yuan Shao felt sorry for Yuan Shang, so he agreed to continue to lead the army to fight.

Also gave a lot of troops.

Shaoqing.

Everyone left Yuan Shao's place in amazement.

No one could have imagined that the next battle would be arranged in this way.

Even Tian Feng Jushou is the same.

But can it be said that Yuan Shao's arrangement was wrong?

If you don't help the third son at this critical moment, then the prime minister's favorite son will not be able to turn over.

"Third Young Master is able to dare to stand up at such a time. He has wisdom and courage. Maybe the Lord just saw this and made such a straightforward arrangement." Ju Shou said.

Tian Feng nodded, "Yes, I hope that the third son can really realize his shame and be brave, take down Puyang, and open the way for our army to invade the Central Plains in an all-round way."

Yuan Tan's Qingzhou is in the Central Plains, but its places are all mountainous, and it will eventually go to Dongjun.

outside the house.

"Brother!" Yuan Shang cupped his fists and saluted, "Little brother is gone."

"Go, be careful, Cao Cao is not easy to deal with." After Yuan Tanyu said earnestly, he saw his third brother walk away with his head held high.

After a while.

Outside the city, the Shence Army camp.

Guo Jia said: "My lord, the prime minister should have mentioned the matter of the general's appointment today, but he didn't."

Zhao Yun and others were dissatisfied when they heard the words.

Yuan Tan smiled when he saw this, and said to everyone: "It was true that the general was mentioned at the beginning, but it was ignored. Everything that followed was understood by everyone, and there is no verbal evidence to support it."

Zhao Yundao: "My lord, since ancient times, one has won a big victory and made persistent efforts, while the loser hides his strength and bides his time."

Most of Yuan Tan's tents are loyal and righteous people, so it's not easy to say something about his father's dissatisfaction to his face.

Yuan Tan got up and went outside, looking to the south, "Southern march, difficult march."

Looking back at Zhao Yun and the others, "It doesn't take one or two battles to achieve results. The winner can also hide his strength and bide his time. The supplies in the rear are almost here. Let the soldiers rest for a day and recharge their batteries."

Guo Jia and the others admire Yuan Tan's mentality very much.

...

This morning.

Sunlight poured into Cao Cao's bedroom.

Cao Cao is lying on the bed and sleeping at the moment.

No matter how big the battle is, people always have to sleep.

Sometimes frowning, sometimes smiling.

"Hey..., Yuan Tan..., hehe..."

I don't know what kind of dream I was doing.

Suddenly, Cao Cao opened his eyes and saw his daughter Cao Jie.

"Daughter, you...how did you come back? Who is the baby in your arms?"

"Father, don't fight with the eldest son. This is the son of me and the eldest son, your grandson!"

"What!" Cao Cao couldn't believe it, his eyes widened, and he saw that the child was the same as Yuan Tan when he was a child.

Suddenly, I felt a chill in my heart, and a dagger appeared there.

"Daughter, you!"

Cao Cao yelled, opened his eyes, and found that everything was a dream, panting heavily.

No matter whether he admits it or not, there are too many things in his mind, which is why he has all sorts of strange and ever-changing dreams.

My daughter will never betray me...

"My lord, there is an urgent military situation!"

At this time, Xiahouen's voice came from outside.

After half an hour.

When Cao Cao came to the front hall, all civil and military personnel were present.

After he put down the information bamboo slip in his hand, he said strangely: "It's not Yuan Tan, but Yuan Shang?"

Immediately asked himself and answered: "Hehe, this must be the result of the Yuan family's struggle for power."

"Yuan Tan's prestige is too great."

"Yuan Shao knows very well that if he continues like this, he will be unable to control the Yuan family within his lifetime."

"In order to avoid it, Yuan Shang was activated again."

Sima Yi sneered when he heard the words, not targeting Cao Cao, but Yuan Shao.

This Prime Minister Yuan used the technique of imperial balance too early, and he has not yet ruled half of China.

But then again, the eldest son of the Yuan family is too aggressive, too rigid. Whether it is military or economic, both wings fly together.

Although he has never done anything against ethics, Prime Minister Yuan must have been under great pressure.

In Sima Yi's view, it is impossible for Yuan Tan to do something disobedient.

You must know that the Yuan family is still far away from unifying the world, and maybe in this ever-changing and chaotic world, they will not be able to reach the end at all.

How can one commit suicides that destroy one's reputation and foundation by killing one's father and brother.

Moreover, Yuan Tan is very treacherous, but he is not capable of such crazy perversions.

If this Eldest Young Master starts from scratch, Yuan Shao only needs to enclose his land and deny him a road leading to the world, that would be tantamount to confinement and self-destruction of his future, and he would have nothing to gain in his life.

From this point of view, Yuan Tan has traveled all the way through mountains and rivers, with countless difficulties and dangers, and only then has he achieved his current status and strength, which has to be admired.

"My lord, do you want to launch that plan?" Sima Yi came out and asked.

Cao Cao nodded, "Of course it will be launched. Continue to weaken the total strength of the Yuan family. Give the third son of the Yuan family some color. That Prime Minister Yuan will support him."

All things have weaknesses.

The weakness of the Yuan family is competition for position, and Yuan Shao's love for Yuan Shang was cultivated.

On the other hand, Yuan Tan's strength is also the Yuan family's weakness.
