The messenger stood in front of Cao Ang and was neither retreating nor retreating. Pang Tong couldn't stand it anymore, so he patted Cao Ang on the shoulder and said, "Young Master, stop singing, there is something wrong."

Cao Ang stopped his mouth and glared at him unhappily, turned his head and asked, "What's the matter?"

The messenger said, "Young master, military advisor, Yuan Shao sent Gao Lan as the main general, Han Meng as the deputy general, and sent a 100,000 army to Yuyang, Shanggu. When the remnants of Wuhuan from the two counties heard this, they went to surrender one after another. In addition, the military advisor Tian Feng went to the Xiongnu, preparing to join forces with the grassland divisions and form an alliance to deal with us."

Cao Ang's heart sank and he couldn't help looking at Pang Tong.

Pang Tong also looked at him. When he looked at him, both of them found that each other's faces were not very good-looking.

Things are a bit big.

Cao Ang said self-deprecatingly: "It's another 100,000 army and a tribal alliance. Uncle Benchu ​​really respects me, a younger generation."

Compared to the 100,000 army, he valued more the Gao Lan and Han Meng.

These two are not unknown juniors. Gao Lan is the Hebei Four Courtyard Pillars who are as famous as Yan Liangwen and Zhang He.

During the Battle of Guandu in history, Cao Cao led his troops to attack Wuchao. Yuan Shao not only did not rescue him, but instead followed Guo Tu's plan and ordered Gao Lan and Zhang He to attack Cao's camp.

After the defeat, Guo Tu turned the blame on Gao and Zhang. They both surrendered to Cao in a furious manner. However, Gao Lan was not lucky. When Liu Bei was defeated and left Jingzhou, he was ordered to chase him and killed him. He was stabbed to death by Zhao Yun. Zhang He, who surrendered with him, rose to prominence and became the five good generals of Cao Wei.

It has to be said that in addition to ability, luck also accounts for a large part of a person's life.

Han Meng is not bad at all compared to Gao Lan. The so-called Hebei Four Courtyards are actually four courts and one pillar. The Four Courtyards are the famous Yan Liangwen Chou. Gao Lan Zhang He, and the first pillar is Han Meng.

Yuan Shao sent them to Yuyang because he was determined not to let himself go.

There is also Tian Feng and Yuan Shao have always had good friends with the grassland tribes, but he was full of enemies and everyone shouted to beat him. Tian Feng didn't have to promise when he went to the grassland. As long as he said to deal with the scum Cao Ang, he would immediately find a common goal with the leaders of the various tribes.

The situation is a little bad.

He asked guiltily: "Shi Yuan, what should I do?"

Pang Tong's eyelids rolled, his mind quickly turned, and he thought for a long time before saying, "Ke Bi Neng Bu Dugen and others are dead, Wuhuan has been destroyed, and now the Huchunu Huchuquan family on the grassland is the only one. It is impossible to say that he has no ambitions."

"What are the most feared by ambitious people? Of course, they are afraid of living by their side who is more ambitious than him. Who is better between us and Yuan Shao who thinks?"

Cao Ang rolled his eyes and said, "Isn't this nonsense? How can I compare with Yuan Shao, who has four generations and three ministers? They occupy four states."

Pang Tong smiled and said, "There is only the only way to fight against the strong in the world, but there is no reason to fight against the weak in the world. Compared to us, Yuan Shao is the biggest obstacle to the rise of the Huns."

"As for Yuan Shao's friendship with the Huns, Humph, there is no friendship in front of interests. Besides, we have no hatred with the Huns. On the contrary, we killed Bu Dugenke and Kebineng and other talents, and gave the Huns the opportunity to rise. From this point of view, Hu Chuquan still owe us favors."

"We will join forces with Tian Feng and Lianheng, join forces with the weak of the Huns and attack Yuan Shao's strength. Our subordinates are willing to go to the Huns in person and persuade Hu Chuquan to form an alliance with us. He occupied the grassland, we occupies Liaodong, and divide the country outside the pass equally."

"Yes, how can I let others sleep soundly beside my bed? Yuan Shao's alliance with the Huns may not be sincere. As long as there is a crack, we can insert it. It's just..." Cao Ang said with a bitter face: "After all, I am the governor of the Han Dynasty appointed by the emperor. I always feel a little different from the alliance with the Huns."

The Han Dynasty had been entangled with the Xiongnu for hundreds of years, and the Han people didn't like the Xiongnu. After turning around, Yuan Shao did not defeat him, but instead became a traitor... Although Cao Ang was thick-skinned, he also had a bottom line. It doesn't matter what others scolded him, but he could not bear the bad reputation of a traitor.

Pang Tong said: "It's just a temporary solution. We just keep calm Hu Chuquan and don't let him make trouble at this critical moment. When we defeat Yuan Shao, we will naturally not let him go."

Cao Ang had a war in his heart, and struggled for a long time before compromising: "Okay, let Zilong go with you. If the talk breaks down, he will be safer."

Pang Tong: "..." Before I set out, I was looking forward to my breaking talk. Should I scold you for being ignorant, or should I praise you for being a general without considering victory, and not losing as a general?

Very tangled.

Cao Ang said again: "You go back and prepare and set off. If you meet Tian Feng, you can kill him. Don't worry about it. I have to make some preparations. When you talk about it, I will immediately write an article, saying that Yuan Shao is willing to be a traitor, collude with foreign races to harm his compatriots, and I will scold him to death if he can't beat him."

Pang Tong: "..." You are shameless and you are really constantly breaking the lower limits of people.

Otherwise, I won’t go, let’s just write a book to curse people. As long as you resist the first wave of attacks between them, Yuan Shao will definitely be called a deer and a horse by you, and write it as the second statement of the Central News Agency.

Cao Ang didn't feel the disgust in Pang Tong's eyes at all, and said, "As for other small Xianbei tribes, one or two are not a big deal, and dozens or hundreds of them are united together, which is also a big force. What are you going to do with them?"

Although Bu Dugen, Ke Bineng, Fu Luohan and others died, the Xianbei's strength did not lose much. If it were unified, it would still be the largest clan on the grassland.

Pang Tong said indifferently: "There are conflicts between brothers, let alone between tribes. Let Tian Yi work hard and take the caravan to various Xianbei tribes to walk around, fan the evil wind and light ghost fires, expand the hatred of each tribe. If possible, fool the enemy, and win over it. If necessary, you can also let the Jinyiwei take action and provoke discord, so that they cannot unite."

"I don't believe that Tian Feng has the ability of Gongsun Yan and Su Qin, which can make the Xianbei tribes give up hatred and join forces to deal with us."

"However, the leaders of each tribe are all masters who do not show off their rabbits and do not show off their eagles. If we want to gain their trust, we may lose some money."

When he said that Cao Ang was surprised to find that the grassland tribes were not afraid at all, and he could eat and sleep.

He said indifferently: "It doesn't matter, money is a bastard, you can make money after spending it. You can decide all the conditions in this negotiation. After passing this level, you can just spit it out as much as they eat, and let them spit it out more."

After the negotiations were completed, the two were about to enter the city to prepare, and several cavalry ran from a distance.

When he got closer, he quickly dismounted and ran to the two of them and said, "I have met the young master, military advisor, General Hou Cheng has returned, escorted tens of thousands of prisoners and brought hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep."

Hou Cheng finally came back after leaving for so many days. He heard that he had gained a lot.

Cao Ang and Pang Tong looked at each other and said happily: "Where is it?"

The soldier replied: "Thirty miles away, the captives with cattle and sheep are slow to take, and it may take a while."

Cao Ang said anxiously: "What are you waiting for? Ask everyone to welcome him together, heroes must be treated as heroes."

"Here."

Several guards rushed to different directions to report the message at the same time, but not long after, Zhang Liao and Huang Zhong arrived one after another.

Cao Ang led them to the direction of Hou Cheng's return. After walking about twenty miles, he saw a cavalry escorting the prisoners and driving cattle and sheep towards him.
