Three Kingdoms: I, the Emperor of Wei, am loyal and honest!

Within a beat of the drum, Cao Ang led 5,000 hussars, attacked Yan Xiang's camp of 20,000 troops, and captured Yan Xiang, Yuan Shu's first counselor alive!

This scene shocked the Huainan defenders above the city.

Let them intuitively feel what it means to be overwhelming!

Some of the Huainan defenders even had cold sweat oozing out from their backs, and their hands holding their weapons even slipped a little.

Yuan Shu, who was hiding behind the battlements and watching this scene, looked ashen as if he were mourning for his heir.

He was still hesitating here whether to send troops to respond to Yan Xiang and attack Cao Ang's hussars.

As a result, Cao Ang had already defeated Yan Xiang's camp.

In that camp, the Huainan army suffered more than three thousand casualties, and blood flowed into the Fei River, dyeing the Fei River red like a river of blood.

Some even jumped directly into the Feishui River with injuries to avoid being charged by the hussars.

Before Yan Xiang could commit suicide, Cao Ang shot him away with his sword and was captured alive by Cao Ang.

The remaining more than 10,000 remaining soldiers surrendered.

In fact, it cannot be said that Cao Ang led five thousand hussars to defeat Yan Xiang's army.

Because from the time he entered Yan Xiang's camp to the time when he defeated Yan Xiang's troops, there were only a queue of more than a thousand riders following Cao Ang into the camp.

There were also more than 3,000 hussars soldiers in the rear group. Before they could rush into the camp gate in order, the battle in front was already over!

So in fact, this is the result of Qian Yuqi's victory!

"Yan Xiang...my Mr. Yan Xiang……"

Yuan Shu's eyes were a little dull, and his whole body seemed to have been drained of strength, and he murmured in silence.

Although Yuan Shu often felt upset about some of Yan Xiang's words.

But when the critical moment came, Yuan Shu also knew that Yan Xiang was the backbone of his think tank.

Now that Yan Xiang has been captured, Yuan Shu's backbone has been hollowed out, and his heart has suddenly lost its square inch.

"Yang Changshi, if he sends troops to rescue now, can he rescue Yan Xiang and the soldiers outside the city?"

Yuan Shu looked at Chief Shi Yang Hong, as if he wanted to get a positive answer from Yang Hong's mouth.

Yang Hong sighed, shook his head and said:"My lord, Yan Xiang has been defeated 29 times, and the soldiers outside the city are either dead or alive. drop.

Cao Ang's hussars are indeed unparalleled in bravery and cannot be stopped by Huainan soldiers and horses.

Unless a hundred thousand troops are deployed to encircle them, it is absolutely impossible."

As he said that, Yang Hong took another look at the soldiers guarding the city around him, with a bitter look on his face:"Please see, my lord, the soldiers in the city have lost their courage after seeing the power of Cao Ang's hussars.

In this case, Shouchun's strong city walls and moats were still able to defend the city.

If the soldiers were allowed to go out of the city to fight with Cao's army, they would probably collapse at the first touch.……"

How could Yuan Shu not know what Yang Hong said, no matter how stupid he was?

At this moment, he couldn't help but sigh:"For now, the only way is to stick to Shouchun and wait for the princes to come to save him."

Yang Hong nodded, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

There was something he didn't say in his heart, that is, he hoped that Shouchun could still hold on until the princes came to rescue him...

Looking at Cao Ang's hussars outside the city who were counting Yan Xiang's troops, Yang Hong knew clearly in his heart that The commander of the hussar army, Cao Ang, who is known as the dragon and phoenix among men, is afraid that he will not give them this opportunity...

However, in this case, Yang Hong knows that he cannot say it in front of Yuan Shu and the soldiers, otherwise, I'm afraid, The soldiers were even more panicked.

At this moment, the camp is outside the city.

The hussars officers were counting all the surrendered troops and taking them to the open space for supervision.

Some of the corpses of the Huainan soldiers who were killed were driven by some surrendered soldiers to move, clean, and prepare for burial to prevent the spread of epidemics.

As for some wounded soldiers in Huainan, they were also treated.

After all, from the moment this army was defeated and surrendered, they were not enemies, but prisoners.

Many of these wounded soldiers can be rescued, and they will also become a considerable source of soldiers or labor force in the future.

"I have heard that the Hussars General is a hero of the world and has a reputation for benevolence and righteousness. Please give me your full name when I die next."

Yan Xiang was brought in front of Cao Ang, and he said with a touch of perseverance in his shame.

Cao Ang did not answer Yan Xiang's question, but smiled and said:"I have also heard of Mr. Yan Xiang's Shouchun Duoluan.

He advised Yuan Shu to surrender his imperial title in order to befriend Liu Biao, and to send him a jade seal to form an alliance with Yuan Shao.

He instigated Wang Lang of Kuaiji, Yan Baihu of Wucheng, Liu Yao of Yuzhang County, Taishi Ci of Jingxian County, Shuai Zulang of Shanyue Qu, etc. to restrain Sun Ce.

Then we can rest and recuperate internally, and we can form an alliance externally to fight against the two states of Yan and Henan.

In this way, you can regain your strength within three years.

Then Nan Ke united with Liu Biao to destroy Sun Ce in Jiangdong and occupied the southeast half.

Beike joined forces with Yuan Shao to attack Xudu and divide the Central Plains.

I have to say that Mr. Sir’s policy is indeed far-sighted and a good strategy for running the country.

It's a pity that Yuan Shu's family fortune has been ruined by him, and he doesn't have enough spare energy and time to realize his master's plan."

Cao Ang spoke with a slight appreciation for Yan Xiang's longevity.

But Yan Xiang smiled bitterly:"General, don't save face for me. My lord still has 70,000 troops under his command. , Recently, Han Siam and Yang Feng were guarded as Tu, and there are natural dangers in Huai River and Fei River.

If we talk about spare energy and time, we do have it.

Unfortunately, the general used his troops like a god, and quickly organized the troops from all tribes to surrender, stabilizing the situation in Xuzhou.

Huainan was not given a chance to regain its strength, which led to this defeat.

In the final analysis, it is still better to play chess than to win and be convinced when you lose.

The defeated general now only wants death, and he asks the general to fulfill his wish."

Seeing that Yan Xiang wanted to die, Cao Ang shook his head.

It's not that he must conquer Yan Xiang, but seeing that Yan Xiang is still so loyal and strong at such an old age, I really admire him.

What's more, Cao Ang cherishes the creation he created How could he kill a loyal and righteous man, and he was also an old and righteous man with white hair?

"If your husband wants to live, I can help you.

If you want to die, it will be difficult.

When Cao Ang said this, he pointed at the Huainan soldiers who surrendered and said,"Sir, why do you think these Huainan soldiers surrendered?"

Was it really because they were no match for my hussars that they were forced to surrender? wrong!

These Huainan soldiers are all well-trained and well-trained.

What is lacking is not combat effectiveness, but morale and fighting spirit.

If Yuan Shu is a wise master, then even if these soldiers know that they are defeated, many of them should be willing to die for him and fight to the death with our army.

The real reason why these soldiers surrendered in a fight or even without a fight was that Yuan Shu was dissolute and immoral, imposed excessive taxes, abused the people, and treated his soldiers harshly.

I came from Xuzhou and saw all the counties and counties in Huainan that were lifeless, with few villages and sparsely populated areas.

The people look like skeletons and have lifeless faces!

The fertile land of Huainan allowed Yuan Shu to operate here, which shows that this tomb of dead bones is worthy of its reputation!"

"Moreover, I am following the emperor's edict and conquering the unconquered ministers.

By saying that he is the defeated general, does he also put himself on the opposite side of the big man?"(To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

After Cao Ang said these words, Yan Xiang was shocked, his face was extremely bitter, and he was speechless.

Indeed, Yan Xiang knew that Yuan Shu was not a wise king..

His extravagant enjoyment has made the originally wealthy Huainan miserable. But now that Cao Ang has led his troops, the soldiers and civilians of Huainan are either facing each other, or they are defeated at the first touch.

It explains everything.

There is plenty of help for those who do not deserve it, and Yuan Shu loses unjustly.

Especially the last sentence is a heart-wrenching statement.

Although Yan Xiang is Yuan Shu's retainer, he cannot directly admit that he is on the opposite side of the Han Dynasty..

And as long as Yan Xiang admits that he is still a subject of the Han Dynasty, he cannot refute Cao Ang, the imperial hussar general who was ordered by the emperor to rebel!

Although he knew in his heart that the emperor was actually the puppet of the Cao family and his son, at least the Cao family and his son would be the general. The emperor welcomed Xu Du, and it was just and right to obey the emperor's orders and not to submit!

"I understand what the general said.

It's just that I am a retainer of Duke Yuan. Now that the army is defeated, if I die without loyalty, I will lose my reputation."

Yan Xiang is a stubborn person. Not only now, he has always been very stubborn in Yuan Shu's Shouchun Hall.

But Cao Ang did not say anything else to Yan Xiang. He just glanced at Yan Xiang and said,"Sir, if you are pedantic enough to take it seriously. With such a reputation, you can treat Huainan's soldiers and civilians lightly, but I, Cao Zixiu, do not want to be known as the killer of virtuous people.

If you really have great righteousness in your heart, you should cherish this useful life. After I take over the whole territory of Huainan, I will use your reputation and talent to help the court manage Huainan and let the people of Huainan recuperate."[]

After saying that, Cao Ang stuck Yan Xiang's sword on the ground, turned and left.

Only Yan Xiang was left with a struggling and thoughtful look on his face.

After a moment, Yan Xiang let out a long sigh, pulled up the sword on the ground, and put it into his scabbard. then walk quickly���He went to Cao Ang and said,"I am an old man. Thanks to the general for not giving up, I am willing to help the general to conquer Huainan. It is a matter of great justice.

However, the city is still the old owner. I cannot obey the general until he captures Shouchun."

Seeing Yan Xiang chasing after him, he did not choose to commit suicide after all, but was obviously moved by Cao Ang's words. Cao Ang also smiled:"Sir, it is a blessing for the people of Huainan that you can think like this.

Please go down and rest first, and wait until I capture Shouchun. Let’s discuss the matter in Huainan with you."

At this moment, Yan Xiang, Yuan Shu’s first adviser, was also convinced by Cao Ang and took him into his arms.

In terms of reputation, Yan Xiang is even more popular among the people in Huainan than Qiao Rui.

After all, Qiao Rui's reputation mostly exists among the Huainan aristocratic families.

However, Yan Xiang is a person who values the people and often advises Yuan Shu to treat the people well.

With the help of Yan Xiang, when Cao Ang takes over Huainan, he can quickly stabilize the people of Huainan and resume production and life as soon as possible, making Huainan once again a sacred land and a source of grain and grass taxes.

After inviting Yan Xiang down, Cao Ang ordered the surrendering soldiers to gather the ships on the south bank and set up several pontoon bridges directly to the north bank.

As a result, the main force of more than 100,000 troops on the north bank was able to quickly cross the river.

It took a whole day and night to complete the crossing.

Cao Ang also spent a whole day and night waiting for Yuan Shu in Shouchun City.

At this time, Yuan Shu in the city was also frightened. He watched Cao's army continue to cross the river with great momentum, but was unable to stop it.

In Yuan Shu's view, the hundreds of thousands of Cao's troops camped under Shouchun City were so densely packed that they looked like waves.

If it surges up, Shouchun City can be submerged at any time!

Therefore, Yuan Shu was very worried. He could not eat or sleep well that day and night, and he did not even dare to leave the city, for fear that Cao Ang would suddenly attack the city.

On the morning of the second day, the sun rose three poles high.

Yuan Shu, who had not slept all night, had just leaned under the city gate and squinted for a while when he heard the sound of drumming suddenly coming from outside the city.

This made Yuan Shu couldn't help but open his eyes instantly, his eyes were bloodshot and extremely terrifying.

"Did Cao Jun attack the city?"

Yuan Shu climbed up in a hurry and said in a panic.

"My lord, Cao's army just came out of camp and formed a formation, and there was no sign of attacking the city."

Yang Hong, who was guarding the top of the city, said this.

Yuan Shu breathed a sigh of relief, and came behind the battlements with a nervous look on his face, looking outside the city.

At this moment, he saw more than ten people in Cao's army camp in the north of the city. Thousands of soldiers and horses marched out from each camp one after another

, forming a uniform formation five hundred steps away from Shouchun City.

There are a thousand heavy-armored infantry with the momentum of a hundred thousand troops trapped in the camp, and there are more than 70,000 Huainan new troops led by Liu Guan, Zhang, Leju, Liang Gang and others, each with a distinct lineup, especially those seven. The morale of the tens of thousands of Huainan new troops is obviously different from that of the Huainan defenders on the city. Many of the city defenders looked at them with envy.

Everyone was the same not long ago, and there were even many among the Huainan new troops opposite. Miss their robes and relatives���Old friend, familiar person.

When I saw him at this moment, the acquaintance opposite seemed to be completely transformed, exuding an elite aura!

While Yuan Shu and other defenders were looking at Cao Jun outside the city with fear and surprise, one of Cao Jun's cavalry mobilized their black horses and slowly marched out of the formation.

It's Cao Ang!

I saw Cao Ang sitting on Wu Zhui's horse, pointing the formation-breaking overlord spear at the city head, and shouted in a thunderous voice:"Skeleton King, you are gone.

I will give you a bowl of honey water, you surrender!"

As soon as Cao Ang said this, Yuan Shu, who was behind the battlements at the head of the city, suddenly turned dark.

Being called the Skeleton King by Cao Ang, he felt deeply offended and felt very unhappy.

But this unhappiness had no effect at all, because he had no way to deal with Cao Ang, so his unhappiness turned into grief and anger.

And that kid Cao Ang just called him the Skeleton King, but he also said that he would give him a bowl of honey water to make Yuan Shu surrender!

What does it mean?

It's obviously humiliating!

Although he, Yuan Shu, is trapped in the city, he is still a prince, a nobleman of the fourth generation and the third prince!

It's just honey water. He, Yuan Shu, couldn't finish ten bowls of it after drinking it. Is he a person who lacks honey water?

That kid Cao Ang only offered him a bowl of honey water and wanted him to surrender. How much do you look down on him, Yuan Shu?

Isn’t this a thinly veiled humiliation?
