Xia Houyuan and Yu Jin saw the bodies of hundreds of soldiers lying dead inside and outside the city. They looked at the clothes and they were Xuzhou soldiers. They felt strange. Why were they fighting in Feixian County?
Cao Jun is far to the north. Why are Xuzhou soldiers fighting with Yuan Jun here?
At this time, Zhang He came out of the city and rode forward. Xia Houyuan was stunned and said to Jin, "Why does that man look familiar?"
Yu Jin looked at it carefully and said solemnly: "That's Zhang He, Zhang Junyi!"
Xia Houyuan was even more surprised and said in silence: "General Jizhou, what are you doing here?"
Yu Jin's heart skipped a beat when he saw Zhang He standing next to a young master. The flag behind him was a big word "Yuan". What on earth happened in Fei County?
As a result, the young master stepped forward on his horse and said, "Yuan Xianyi is in Jizhou, may I ask for the name of the general?"
Both of them had a sudden heart attack and quickly clasped their fists.
"Xiahou Miaocai."
"Yu Wenze."
Yuan Xice immediately stepped forward and said with a smile: "It turns out he is a fierce general under Duke Meng De. I have admired him for a long time."
The two of them quickly returned the favor.
Xia Houyuan asked curiously: "Why does the young master appear here?"
Yuan Xi smiled and said: "I was stationed in Jizhou, but I met a stranger who said that there was someone Cao Gong wanted to get here. I thought it was okay, so I brought my troops to have a look."
Of course Xia Houyuan and Yu Jin didn't believe this. They looked at each other and said, "This is strange. I wonder if the young master has been found?"
Yuan Xi smiled and said: "I found it, maybe you two are interested."
He nodded to Zhang He. Zhang He understood and called for the soldiers to come out with more than a dozen carriages.
When Xia Houyuan saw the logo on the car, his heart suddenly suddenly opened. As expected, the car door opened, revealing Cao Song's old face.
Xia Houyuan and Yu Jin quickly got off their horses and bowed to Cao Song: "Under Duke Ming's command, Xia Houyuan (Yu Jin) has met Grand Duke Cao!"
Cao Song sighed, with a look of despair on his face, "You guys are here. It's not easy for me to see you. I was almost killed by those traitors in Xuzhou. My son wants to avenge me."
Yuan Xi briefly told the story of Zhang Kai's murder and said to the two of them: "Zhang Kai is a general under Tao Qian with evil intentions. Fortunately, I arrived in time to kill him. It's a blessing."
"Later, Liu Bei arrived with his men and attacked our army. There were many casualties on both sides. Later, when he saw the two generals approaching, he retreated."
Cao Song quickly said: "Thank you Mr. Yuan for saving my life."
Yuan Xi nodded and said: "You're welcome, Mr. Cao. Since the matter is over, please leave with the two generals quickly to avoid another accident if the Xuzhou army comes over."
Cao Song shrank in fear and jumped onto the carriage, "Then let's leave quickly!"
He suddenly felt that something was wrong there and said: "My hundred and ten big cars"
Yuan Xi smiled and didn't answer, complaining to Xia Houyuan: "If it weren't for the deep love between my father and Duke Cao, he wouldn't have sent me into danger. The two generals didn't know, but I almost lost my life. "
"In order to save Taigong Cao, most of the thousands of soldiers and horses I brought were killed or injured. It will be difficult to explain to my father when I go back."
Xia Houyuan and Yu Jin instantly understood what Yuan Xi meant.
You have already been saved and you still want to take your property back, no way!
If it had been anyone else, Xia Houyuan would have been able to say a few words, but it happened that the person facing him was Yuan Shao's son. At this time, Cao Cao was still Yuan Shao's vassal, how could he possibly be in conflict?
And he sent his own son to save Cao Song!
Cao Song bit his sleeve. This son of Yuan Shao was too evil. He wanted to swallow all the wealth he had collected in his life!
He said pitifully: "I have nothing to offer, I only rely on my meager savings."
Yuan Xi smiled and said: "I'm not that outrageous. Lieutenant Zhang, please pull out five cars and let Cao Taigong take them away."
"If there is an opportunity in the future, I will try to pay some back to Grandpa Gong."
Xia Houyuan and Yu Jin looked at each other, how dare you say that!
But they can’t do anything yet!
Cao Song was unwilling to give up and sighed. He suddenly remembered something and asked Yu Jin: "My son Cao De escaped on horseback last night to look for reinforcements. Did you encounter him?"
After hearing this, Yu Jin couldn't help but look at Xia Houyuan.
Xia Houyuan looked sad, "We did meet, but Mr. Cao De was too eager and asked us to rush over overnight. As a result, he was leading the way, but he and his horse accidentally fell off the cliff."
After hearing this, Cao Song yelled and fainted in the carriage. When everyone saw it, there was a rush.
Yuan Xi thought to himself that this was interesting, and sighed to Xia Houyuan: "The Cao family has suffered a great disaster. Xi is deeply sorry and asks you to take Grand Duke Cao back for good health."
Xia Houyuan thanked Yu Jin and took Cao Song and the soldiers back to the north.
Yuan Xi waited for the other party to leave before he breathed a sigh of relief.
What a bastard, he worked so hard to fight such a battle and saved the life of this bitch like Cao Song, and he still wants to get nothing out of it?
If he hadn't wanted to make a name for himself, he would have killed Cao Song, a corrupt official, with a single sword.
Originally, all these hundred and ten cars were mine, but giving you five cars makes my heart bleed!
However, Yuan Xi increasingly felt that the identity of Yuan Shao's son was useful. He was almost openly robbing Cao Song of his property, and the two generals of Cao's army did not dare to say anything.
This is the benefit of the noble clan, one level is superior to the other.
Moreover, as the lord, Yuan Shao is currently fighting for world supremacy, and Cao Cao does not dare to offend the Yuan family yet.
But this matter of Cao De is interesting. He died in an unclear manner. I am afraid that I will give Cao Cao a living Cao Song this time, which will give Cao Cao a headache for several years.
He smiled at Zhang He and said, "This time I have to rely on Brother Junyi, otherwise things would not go so smoothly."
Zhang He humbled himself a bit, and when he saw Qu Yi and Gao Lan leaving with thirty cavalry, he wondered: "They...?"
Yuan Xi said: "I asked them to go back first."
Zhang He praised: "Those two masked generals are no less capable than He. The young master really has many talents under his command."
Yuan Xi smiled and thought that his father Yuan Shao had more talents. If he could poach a few more people, it would be much faster than recruiting from outside.
Speaking of Gao Lan, I have to thank Yuan Shang for being unscrupulous, otherwise it would not have gone so smoothly.
The people of Xuzhou in Feixian County watched with anxiety as Cao Cao's army left. Seeing Yuan Xi leading his troops into the city again, they couldn't help but become nervous and retreated unconsciously.
They were afraid that Yuan Jun would give an order and kill everyone.
Yuan Xi coughed and said, "Everyone can go."
As soon as these words came out, the people of Xuzhou looked at each other, would they really let them go?
Yuan Xi spoke again: "Everyone leaves the city, don't delay, hurry up and go south. Cao Jun from the north will come back at any time."
"If you are afraid of suffering from war in Xuzhou, you can come back to Jizhou with me, and I will arrange a place for you to stay."
As soon as he finished speaking, many people knelt down and said, "Young Master, I am so kind to you. I am willing to follow you!"
They are not stupid either. Xuzhou is in chaos and chaos. Cao Jun obviously wants to occupy all of Xuzhou. There are constant massacres in the middle. They just flee south. Can they guarantee a safe escape?
It is better to follow Yuan Jun back to Jizhou, at least he can save his life!
The crowd gathered around them noisily. Yuan Xi took inventory and found that most of the nearly a thousand people wanted to follow him, and only two to three hundred people wanted to go south.
He ordered the people going south to go first. As several carriages passed by, he thought to himself that there were still nobles here.
After Zhuge Xuan's cart left the city, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked the driver to hurry south.
Zhuge Liang turned back and looked in the direction of Feixian County, thinking that the Yuan family seemed to be very different from the nobles he had seen. Only people with great ambitions could avoid hurting the enemy's troops and civilians, right?
If I want to change the world, I still have a lot to learn.
