Since the coalition forces broke through Chenggao Pass.
A smooth journey.
Under the posture of all the ministries like tigers and wolves.
First, break through the revolving door.
Then he used the power of plowing the courtyard to sweep holes, closed the revolving door behind him, and swept all the important positions of various checkpoints.
Many gathering points and settlements set up by Dong Zhuo's army, after seeing the banners of the Dong Alliance Army, turned over and surrendered, dismounted and surrendered.
With such an unrivaled momentum, more than 100,000 troops rushed toward Gong County.
No more than three days.
Then you can march to the city.
However, it is located east of Huangshui River.
The army stopped.
Because the envoy sent by Dong Zhuo arrived at the camp.
At this moment, we are inside the Chinese army camp.
Yuan Shao sat in the main seat with a gloomy expression, and Yuan Shu, who was second only to him, sat in the upper left diagonal position, different from the rest of the people.
As for Cao Cao and other heroes, they were listed as left and right.
Everyone, without exception, stared straight at the chattering envoys in the field with eyes like daggers and spears.
"The Prime Minister has said that if Leader Yuan can immediately stop his troops and retreat wherever they come from, not only will more than fifty members of the Yuan family be safe."
"Even for everything you have done before, you can forget about it. If you loyally submit to the imperial court, even if you are promoted to an official position in the future, it will be just a joke!"
"But if these few people don't know what's good, then the Prime Minister may have no choice but to kill him. At that time, Alliance Leader Yuan and General Yuan will only be able to see the heads of the family's old and young!"
"I hope you two will think carefully!"
A completely unknown messenger.
Relying on his extraordinary boldness, he talked eloquently in front of everyone, without feeling the slightest fear because of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's pupils, which seemed to be spitting out substantial flames.
…
As this person's words fell.
Regardless of how Cao Cao and others reacted.
Just talking about Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, they were filled with anger at this moment and wanted to tear the person in front of them alive.
"Crack!"
Yuan Shao clenched his fist tightly with his right hand, and his bones and joints even made a strange sound, which showed how strong he was.
After a few breaths.
Yuan Shao couldn't help but hit the table hard, making a heavy muffled sound.
"Rebellious dog thief, extremely shameless!"
"When the two armies are fighting, I have never heard of such a rat threatening the old, weak, women and children. Such behavior is really despicable and disgusting!"
Corresponding to Yuan Shao's rage.
It was Yuan Shu's gloomy words.
"The Dong thief is nothing more than an incompetent person. He must be at his wits' end in the face of the might of our army, and his liver and gallbladder are trembling, so he can only use this low-level method to intimidate him."
Faced with the angry rebuke of the two.
The messenger is neither hasty nor slow.
He calmly straightened his clothes and retorted calmly.
"The words of the two generals are wrong. The Prime Minister is an important minister of the imperial court, and he is also the regent and ruler of the country for today's emperor. He exactly represents the current imperial court."
"You are raising troops to invade, which is an act of disobedience and rebellion. The prime minister's execution of the Yuan family is to use the thunder and power of the court to destroy those who are inside and outside the invaders."
"This is upright, how can it be despicable?"
have to say.
This guy is good at arguing.
I don’t know where Dong Zhuo found the talents.
It's a pity that this guy talks like this. I'm afraid it will be difficult to return to Luoyang in good health in the end.
as expected.
After hearing this, Yuan Shao became furious.
He stood up without saying a word.
His eyes were like sharp swords and his expression was ferocious, as if he wanted to eat this man alive.
"The Dong thief is just a usurper. How dare he seize the power of the imperial court? What qualifications does he have and what face does he have to represent the imperial court?"
"On the other hand, all of you here are following the imperial edict to punish thieves, or you are doing righteous deeds that are in line with etiquette and law."
"It seems that you, who do not distinguish between loyal and treacherous, and have no political agenda, really deserve to be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts."
"Left and right, take this man down, cut off his ears and nose first, and then wait for his execution!"
Yuan Shao gave an order.
Several guards rushed up suddenly.
He grabbed the messenger's left and right arms and dragged him out, completely ignoring the fact that the guy was so frightened that he was deformed and begging for mercy.
…
In the tent.
There was dead silence.
Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were both at a loss for a moment, one half-closed his eyes and the other looked up at the sky.
He seemed to have so many thoughts and didn't know what to say.
And the heroes from all walks of life sitting on the left and right were even more confused about how to speak.
This is the current situation.
It’s really a dilemma.
Although everyone is an ally, compared to the Yuan family, everyone here is still an outsider.
It's impossible to persuade Yuan Shao to accept it with peace of mind and just sit back and watch the Yuan family be killed, right?
Let them give up and continue to advance.
That is even more impossible!
We all put in a lot of effort and went through a lot of hardships to finally get together.
How could he give up because of the Yuan family's affairs?
So it's wrong to say it no matter what.
There is only silence.
After a long time.
Yuan Shaocai sighed.
Then he opened his half-closed eyes and looked at Yuan Shu sitting next to him with some desolation.
"Highway, what do you think about this matter?"
Yuan Shu raised his eyelids.
His eyes met Yuan Shao's.
From the eyes of this so-called brother who I have never looked down on before and would belittle him every time I met him.
Yuan Shu saw a complicated expression.
Pain, struggle, and...relief!
He froze.
…
It took quite a while.
Yuan Shucai coughed twice and said with some difficulty in a hoarse voice.
"We came here to fight against the thieves, but for the sake of the great Han Dynasty, for the peace of the world, and for the great cause of our family and country, not for our own selfish interests."
"Such a righteous act will inevitably require some sacrifices, so why can't it be my Yuan family?"
"We are doing this loyal thing and being a loyal person. If my uncle and eldest brother know better, they will surely be happy for us!"
Yuan Shu's tone was impassioned.
But if Yuan Wei, Yuan Ji and others heard the words that were spoken, they would probably feel chills all over their bodies and their souls would rise.
But in a few words.
He had already decided to send his uncle, eldest brother and others to hell, thus completing their great cause of conquering Dong.
After hearing this, Yuan Shao on the side.
His eyes flashed one after another.
The fingers placed on the desk twitched involuntarily, making a clear clicking sound.
What I said about the highway is exactly what I want!
Yuan Shao is not a cold-blooded person.
But at the moment, there is no retreat in the matter of discussing Dong. There is no substantial progress yet. If he takes even half a step back, everyone present will definitely not agree.
Even if he forcibly withdraws from the alliance.
From now on, his reputation as Yuan Shao will probably become a pile of stinking shit in this world.
Even though he is the legitimate son of the Yuan family in Runan.
It cannot offset the huge negative impact of such behavior, which is catastrophic.
Therefore, compared to the fifty or so tribesmen in Luoyang, Yuan Shao felt that it was more important to protect himself.
Besides, even if he retreats.
Can those tribesmen be safe and sound?
With Dong Zhuo's urinary temperament, he would probably feel that he had a handle on him, and he would probably take advantage of his family members to force him to submit again and again.
Instead of being controlled by others.
It’s better to cut it off now!
…
After Yuan Shao learned about Yuan Shu's intentions.
I understand that this little brother is the same as me.
So he also went away from worries.
His face immediately put on a look of great sorrow, and he said in a sad voice.
"When I was with my uncle, he always taught me that I should be loyal to the court and do my best for the people of the world."
"Report it to the country and make peace with the common people. Only in this way can you live up to being a descendant of the Yuan family."
"Nowadays, the Dong thief is rampant and wreaking havoc on the world. Unfortunately, my uncle and the others fell into the hands of the thief. This matter is extremely helpless."
"I think if they know the current situation of my two brothers, they will definitely support us in continuing to raise troops to attack Dong Zhuo and kill the leader of the thieves!"
Equally impassioned.
Extremely tragic.
The next second.
The two brothers seemed to have a tacit understanding and stood up in unison.
Yuan Shao made a "clang" sound, pulled out the long sword from his waist, and then pointed the sword tip directly at Luoyang.
"Cut off the envoy's ears and nose, drive him out of the camp, and let him repay Dong Zhuo. We will never back down!"
"Wentai, Mengde, with you two as the left and right vanguards, continue the march and send troops to Luoyang!"
The heroes of Guandong couldn't help but look at each other.
But after a while.
They all stood up in unison.
He bowed to Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu successively.
"You are so righteous!"
…
Everyone left the camp one after another.
Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were getting ready to find a place to lie quietly for a while.
However, Cao Ang came forward at this time.
See this situation.
Yuan Shao couldn't help but asked with some confusion: "Is there something important for Zixiu?"
Cao Ang put on a mysterious look.
After confirming that there was no one else around, he quietly said: "Two uncles, there is something wrong with the many arrangements just now, so I came here to tell you!"
I heard it was related to what happened just now.
This time, even Yuan Shu, who was slightly agitated, was not in a hurry to leave, but instead followed and surrounded him.
"Zixiu, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly."
Cao Ang first reached out from the table and picked up the surrender letter sent by Dong Zhuo.
Then he pointed outside the account.
"The top priority for my two uncles is to burn this surrender letter first, and then kill the envoy on the spot. Never let him return to Luoyang."
"At the same time, a silence order needs to be issued in the army. Anyone who sees the arrival of this messenger must keep it secret and pretend that they have never seen this person today!"
Cao Ang's words.
The two people who were talking were stunned for a while.
However, these words are not profound at all. After thinking about it for a while, I finally came to my senses.
"Zixiu's intention is to completely erase all traces of this person's visit and pretend not to know anything about it?"
Cao Ang nodded happily.
He is still improving his favorability.
Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with him, and he has no interests involved in it at all.
In this case, it's better to use it as a favor and wake up these two guys a little.
In this way, you can also gain a wave of goodwill.
Of course, the main reason is Yuan Shao's favorability.
Big Skeleton King's is less important.
…
"The two uncles can resolutely abandon their family for the sake of the righteousness of the family and the country. Those of us who participated in the alliance know the inside story and naturally feel deeply."
"But there are many people in the world who don't know what's going on."
"Some people think that the two uncles are cold-blooded and ruthless, abandoning their family and family in order to make achievements. Once word spreads, their reputation will be ruined."
While talking.
Cao Ang observed the reactions of the two people.
Seeing that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's expressions suddenly became a little ugly, he knew that the two brothers understood what he said.
Immediately he continued slowly: "Therefore, I suggest that the envoy be killed and his traces covered up. When others ask, they will say that they have never known that such a person has been in the camp."
"Even if the Tutor is unfortunately killed in the future, it will be Dong Zhuo who is cruel and tyrannical. He is the killer who makes his own decisions. It has nothing to do with the two uncles."
quiet!
There were only three of them left in this huge tent.
There was total silence at the moment.
The two Yuan brothers stared at Cao Ang with burning eyes.
Full of shock.
yes!
Why didn't they think of this?
It is completely possible to destroy the corpses and eliminate any traces, thus completely dissociating yourself from the deaths of your uncle and the others.
One push, four, five, six, and everything was blamed on Dong Zhuo. They didn't take any of the blame.
As for those who know the real situation, it is only a few people in a small area, and they will not cause an uproar in the world.
thereby preserving their reputation.
It’s really the best plan!
Regardless of Yuan Shao or Yuan Shu, these two brothers who had never disliked each other in the past actually had the same idea in their minds at this moment.
The young man in front of me is unfathomable!
His level of sophistication was beyond their imagination. Those who didn't know it thought he was an old man who had been in the court for many years.
Especially Yuan Shao.
He knew that Cao Ang was a talent.
He is capable, resourceful and courageous. He is a very outstanding talent.
But until now.
Only then did he realize that he had underestimated Cao Zixiu after all. He was very intelligent!
…
no doubt.
Yuan Shao immediately sent someone to convey the order.
Kill the envoy and all the people who came with him, and burn the bodies directly, even the ashes will be spread for him.
When Yuan Shao came back from outside the tent.
Yuan Shu was holding the surrender letter and lit it on the candle. It soon burned to ashes.
At this point, the two finally felt relieved.
Looking at Cao Ang standing with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face, Yuan Shao couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder.
"Thank you Zixiu for waking up today, otherwise I would really be in a dream!"
"Mengde has a good way of educating his children. The Cao family has a Qilin son. From now on, if you and your uncle move around more, our two families will have more contact!"
Yuan Shao's promise carries a very heavy weight.
His words.
It is undoubtedly highly recognized.
It even escalated to the point where the two families went back and forth.
In fact, Cao Ang has been very helpful to him recently, and at the same time, Yuan Shao appreciates the various abilities this young man has displayed.
If you invest more heavily at this time, you will definitely not lose money in the future.
To this.
Naturally, Cao Ang responded repeatedly.
But what happened next surprised him.
When Yuan Shu turned around and left the camp.
He actually stopped beside him.
At the same time, he whispered something.
"I owe you a favor today!"
Such a simple sentence really surprised Cao Ang.
For someone as arrogant as Yuan Shu.
He actually took the initiative to say that he owed himself a favor.
Tsk!
It seems that I really made a lot of money today!
