The county seat of Ji County was captured calmly, but the only thing that made Zhao Fei feel unhappy was that two brothers, Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang, actually ran away.
Cao's army surrounded the entire Jixian County, but the two Yuan brothers actually escaped. It was understandable that he was unhappy. But when the two Yuan brothers broke through the encirclement, General Cao's army felt a little ashamed, and also
Dare not say anything more.
However, Zhao Fei didn't care very much, because even though the two brothers Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang ran away, they no longer had a living status in the entire Youzhou.
One can imagine the indignation of the people of Youzhou towards Yuan Xi. When Yuan Xi had soldiers under his command, the people might not have dared to resist Yuan Xi. But now, Yuan Xi has lost all the elite around him. For the tiger that no longer has sharp claws and teeth,
The people will definitely not buy his fault again.
Since Yuan Xi no longer has the capital to fight for hegemony in Youzhou, let Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang go. After all, the power of the two is not very big, and the two without military power are obviously not afraid. Therefore, Zhao Fei does not want to continue to be in trouble.
Two people.[
However, Cao Cao obviously did not want to let Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang off easily, which made Zhao Fei feel a little helpless. The top priority now should be to capture Youzhou instead of spending troops chasing these two useless people.
And Zhao Fei also knew that Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang would inevitably die sooner or later. Historically, the two brothers Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang defected to Gongsun Kang, the prefect of Liaodong. In the end, Gongsun Kang killed the two of them and sacrificed their heads.
At Cao Cao.
However, Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang have not gone straight to Liaodong. Now Yuan Xi still has thousands of cavalry and nearly 10,000 foot soldiers. With these soldiers, Yuan Xi is naturally not far behind. Now Yuan Xi is still
The people who can rely on are the Wuhuan people. As long as they can be persuaded to join the war, they can still fight against Cao's army.
Yuan Xi knew that talking to foreigners about jointly sending troops was different from seeking the skin of a tiger. He had been the governor of Youzhou for so long, how could he not know what the foreigners were like. But now, it was obvious that he had no choice.
Having been the governor of Youzhou for so long, Yuan Xi naturally had some contact with the Wuhuan people. With their cavalry, Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang fled towards western Liaoning in panic. After Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang established themselves in western Liaoning,
, Yuan Xi began to engage in jehu with the Wuhuan people.
The Wuhuan people in Youzhou were naturally very concerned about the battle between Cao and Yuan. After all, they were careerists and yearned for the rich land in the Central Plains. They wanted to take advantage of the battle between Cao and Yuan to profit from it, but what was surprising was that Yuan
Xi didn't last long before he was defeated by Cao's army.
After Yuan Xi's defeat, everyone's thoughts of taking advantage of the situation and plundering disappeared. After all, the combat effectiveness of Cao's army was obviously superior to that of other princes encountered by the Wuhuan people.
When Gongsun Zan was the governor of Youzhou, the Wuhuan people were suppressed by Gongsun Zan. In their view, Gongsun Zan was very powerful and obviously they could not defeat him. Then Gongsun Zan was defeated by Yuan Jun, so Yuan Jun naturally
Stronger than Gongsun Zan.
Due to Yuan Xi's relatively gentle policy and the dignity left by Gongsun Zan, there was no war between the Wuhuan people and Yuan's army. Now, the strong rise of Cao's army makes it difficult for the Wuhuan soldiers to accept. At that time, a big prince from four states was like this
They were defeated by Cao's army in a short period of time. Cao's army was obviously more powerful than Yuan's.
The first target Yuan Xi visited was the leader of Karasuma in Western Liaoning, Tadun. He was the subordinate of the former Karasuma master Qiu Liju. Tadun was brave and resourceful, and was a rare talent among Karasuma.
He was the commander-in-chief of the Karasuma tribe in Beiping, Yuyang and Shanggu counties. All tribes obeyed his orders and were deeply supported and convinced by the tribes.
It can be said that Tadun is now the king of Karasuma. There are many 50,000 tribes in eastern Liaoning and western Liaoning, but Tadun is definitely the most powerful one in the entire Karasuma world. As long as Tadun is persuaded to send troops, the other Karasuma tribes will surely
They will also send troops.
Cao Jun's footwork is really strong, but the Wuhuan people's cavalry is not for nothing. They are born to live on horseback, and they have a talent for riding skills that far exceeds that of the Central Plains people. Even though Cao Jun's footwork is strong,
However, the cavalry's advantage lies in its strong mobility, which is not comparable.
Yuan Xi rode his horse and appeared at the gathering place of the Wuhuan people, and Yuan Xi's arrival was obviously welcomed by the Wuhuan tribe. After all, Yuan Xi's peaceful strategy was very helpful to the Wuhuan people. So when they saw Yuan Xi, the Wuhuan people were naturally not happy.
He will be ignored.
Yuan Xi was invited to Tadun's tent. Tadun sat on the main seat. When he saw Yuan Xi entering the tent, Tadun immediately showed a smile, and then said loudly: "The governor actually came to my small place.
, it really makes my little camp full of glory!"
Although Tadun spoke very casually, there was obviously a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
After hearing Tadun's words, Yuan Xi was obviously very angry, but thinking of the purpose of his coming here today, he could only suppress his anger. He was here to talk to Tadun about sending troops together, but there were other matters.
Let’s talk about it later.
Now that his strength is obviously not as good as that of Tadun, he also hopes to use Tadun's troops to capture Youzhou. Of course, if Tadun is really willing to help him, then Yuan Xi's goal will not only care about Youzhou. If
If possible, Yuan Xi hopes to use this to capture Jizhou.
Compared with Jizhou, Youzhou is really nothing. Back then, my father relied on Jizhou to occupy the entire Hebei. It can be said that Jizhou is definitely a state and county that can achieve hegemony. If you can, you can win Jizhou and you will have
It’s time to compete for the world’s capital.
"Chan Yumo is joking with me. Now that the governor of Youzhou has been captured by Cao's army, my reputation as governor is obviously not upright." Yuan Xi's words were full of loneliness. He thought about the time when he was in charge of a state.
How powerful, Tadun, how dare he speak to himself like this.[
Looking at it now, what does it mean to be bullied by a dog when a tiger falls in Pingyang? This is obviously a true portrayal. Let Tadun feel proud at this moment. After he can capture Jizhou, he will seek revenge on Tadun, a small foreigner.
, seriously consider yourself a person.
Tadun stared at Yuan Xi, and then said in a deep voice: "Okay, don't talk about the use of these. In the words of you Han people, it is not a matter of going to the Three Treasures Palace. I guess the governor must have some purpose in coming to see me!"
/
Yuan Xi smiled slightly and then said: "What Shanyu said is right. I really have something to do when I come to see Shanyu today."
"The Chanyu and I are here today to send troops together to conquer Cao's army!" Yuan Xi glanced at Tadun and then explained his purpose of coming.
Tadun obviously knew why Yuan Xi came to see him. He smiled slightly and then said: "The governor really likes to joke. The governor's hundreds of thousands of elite troops are all opponents of Cao's army. Let me go and fight with Cao's army."
, that’s not what I’m waiting for!”
This Tadun is indeed somewhat resourceful, Yuan Xi secretly sighed in his heart. Among the foreign tribes in Youzhou, this Tadun is obviously the smartest one. Otherwise, Tadun would not be able to become the king of Wuhuan.
"The chariots and cavalry under Shan Yu's command are more elite, but Cao Jun's footwork is quite strong. In terms of cavalry, Cao Jun is the opponent of Shan Yu's subordinates!" Yuan Xi said in a deep voice. Then Yuan Xi spoke again: "If Shan Yu is willing
If you send troops, I will give you generous gifts!"
Tadun Shanyu obviously looked down upon what Yuan Xi said verbally. He stared at Yuan Xi quietly without saying anything!
At this moment, Yuan Xi secretly cursed Tadun in his heart. This Tadun was indeed a master who never saw rabbits but never let go of hawks. Seeing how rough and arrogant he looked, he thought he was a big boss, but he didn't expect that he had a delicate mind.
.
After looking at Tadun, Yuan Xi spoke again: "If the Chanyu helps me capture Jizhou, then I will cede most of the fertile land in Youzhou to you and your tribe. What do you think of this deal?"
Yuan Xi's words really made Tadun's eyes light up. Others Tadun may not care, but fertile land is obviously what he dreams of most. The Central Plains is rich, Tadun obviously knows it already, and it is Tadun who wants to get involved in the Central Plains.
The greatest injustice.
Now, he finally had a chance. Yuan Xi asked him to send troops, and then he could legitimately attack the Han people's land.
Although he is careless and careless, he has obviously learned the knowledge of the Han people and knows what it means to be just and righteous. If he cannot be righteous, he will be nothing more than a robber in the eyes of others.
Since Gongsun Zan was destroyed, Tadun has rekindled the idea of conquering the Central Plains. However, he has obviously never had a chance. Moreover, the Central Plains is vast and has a large population. His own tribe alone may not be able to conquer even one county.
, let alone getting involved in the Central Plains.
By studying the culture of the Central Plains, Tadun knew what it means to accumulate more and gain less. So when Yuan Xi ruled Youzhou, he had been accumulating strength, hoping that one day he could get involved in the Central Plains.
Now, his strength has almost been accumulated. Not to mention anything else, he has 20,000 warriors under his command. Of course, this is just the beginning. With his own prestige, it is obviously not unreasonable to summon tens of thousands of troops to attack the Central Plains.
possible.
Tadun knew what it meant to be greedy but not enough. He had a large army of tens of thousands, but compared with the princes of the Central Plains, his army of tens of thousands was obviously nothing.
Moreover, his troops are all cavalry. On horseback, they don't care if one is against ten. But attacking the city requires walking, which is obviously his weakness. When he gets off the horse, the Karasuma people will not care.
Know how to fight.
If you want to get involved in the Central Plains, you'd better have the skills to attack cities and seize territory. Yuan Xi's soldiers are obviously the best choice.
Letting Yuan Xi take the lead and enjoy the benefits himself is obviously what Tadun wants to see.
As for capturing Jizhou, Tadun smiled contemptuously. I have the ability to capture the Central Plains, so what do I want from you, a loser? I don't care about the slightly barren land in Youzhou. What I want is to conquer the world of the Han people.
A little King of Karasuma obviously cannot stop me from stepping forward. Compared with the little King of Karasuma, the emperor of the Han people is my ultimate dream.[
