After that, Xiahou An and the young man beside him ordered: "Qingwan, go and tell Xu Rong and Taishi Ci, and let them take people out and carry supplies."

Li Qing left stubbornly.

Cao Ang was inevitably curious about this strange face he had never seen before, so he asked Xiahou An: "Who is this boy?"

Xiahou An did not explain this in detail, but said that it would be a long story, and he would talk about it later when he had time. In short, it was someone who helped a lot, so let's go into the city first!

Cao Ang nodded.

However, as soon as I entered the city, Cao Ang stopped, and a hint of astonishment surged in his eyes. Is this the dilapidated city when I left?

Looking around, a main road penetrated through the entire city and led directly to the downstairs of the city gate to the north. The street that was originally messy and sloppy at the beginning was already clean now.

In addition, there are many figures walking around the streets.

Some of the shirtless men repaired their houses, while others were carrying big rocks, talking and shouting one after another...

Finally, I had a hint of the city atmosphere that the city should have.

Cao Ang was happy about this, and at the same time he was puzzled: "Boyang, where did you gather so many people?"

Ni Heng, on the other side, also had this doubt. Even himself might not be able to gather so many people in a short period of time.

"It was not the staff I called, they delivered it to the door themselves..."

Xiahou An laughed and told Cao Ang and Ni Heng about the siege of the city that day.

After hearing this, Cao Angxu was sweating coldly, but fortunately he was shocked and safe.

Otherwise, this city would probably not be able to be protected.

Without walking a few steps forward, He Man, who was in charge of logistics, was setting up an iron pot to make medicine. Most of the elderly and weak in the team were sick. Now they settled in Duchang City, so they could take this opportunity to rest and recuperate.

"Brother He Man!"

Xiahou An shouted and said hello.

Soon, Cao Ang saw a fierce man walking towards him,

When the man approached, Xiahou An smiled and introduced the two parties.

"Brother He, this is the eldest son of the Cao family, Cao Ang and Cao Zixie; the next person is a famous scholar in Qingzhou, Ni Heng and Ni Zhengping, and is also the county book of this county."

He Man didn't catch a cold when it came to the officials, but for Xiahou An's sake, he still fisted, which was considered a greeting.

"This is Huang Turban Qu Shuai, with a surname He, with a single name of Man, nicknamed "Jie Tianyasha". All the more people in the city are his subordinates."

Cao Ang also symbolically hugged a fist, which was considered a return gift.

After a while of greeting, Xiahou An left here: "Okay, brother, you are busy first, I will come to brag about you when you are free..."

After saying goodbye to He Man, the three of them walked side by side. After walking for a while, they confirmed that He Man was far away. Cao Angcai said with a serious expression: "Boyang, this person's face is fierce, and he is definitely not a good person. I can feel that he is definitely a villain who kills without blinking. Such a person stays by his side, and is the coach of the Yellow Turban Qu. With his appeal, aren't you afraid of attracting wolves into the house?"

Although Xiahou An said that the two sides had an agreement, no one could say such a thing, and it was impossible to guarantee that the two sides would suddenly break up and fight and attack.

When I have milk, it’s my mother. If the milk breaks one day, maybe He Man and others will show their evil appearance and turn into a group of ungrateful wolves.

If your strength is not equal, if you are not careful, you will be doomed.

Xiahou An didn't care much about Cao Ang's concerns. He asked the other person: "What do the county book think?"

He put his hand behind him, and Ni Heng, who was in the posture of an old cadre, snorted and said disdainfully: "What's the point of worrying about a group of fools!"

Xiahou An rolled his eyes when he heard this. The impression he had just changed a little and returned to his original position. He couldn't do anything and pretended to be the first place.

So he automatically ignored Ni Heng's speech and asked Cao Ang again: "What should you do according to your opinion?"

Cao Ang had already planned in his heart and replied to this: "The thieves can be used, but the thief leader He Man should be executed to intimidate the thief's heart."

In this way, without the leader of the thief leader, the thief soldiers will be in a mess. Even if there are difficulties in the city, these thieves will not dare to act rashly.

"If your father was there, he would definitely not have done so."

Xiahou An patted Master Cao on the shoulder. It was not impossible to do this, but there was no need.

“Why?”

Cao Ang was puzzled.

Xiahou An, who was interested in guiding the eldest son Cao, said slowly: "If you are a general, you will have no problem with your approach, but as a leader, the first thing you need to know is to take overall charge of the situation. Secondly, your mind and courage must not be lacking... Killing He Man can certainly achieve results, but if you take it for yourself, it will show a broad mind and will have great help to accept the thief in the future... In addition, I have a relationship with He Man. Since he comes to vote for me, if I kill him, how do others think of me?"

Cao Ang hugged his arms and thought it seemed to make some sense, but he always demanded himself as a general, and his ideal was to be a general with outstanding military achievements. As for the leader, with his father here, it was not his turn to do anything.

"What if your father dies?"

Xiahou An kept this sentence in his heart, and it would be better not to say some of them.

At the welcoming banquet, in order to reward Cao Ang and others who were working hard all the way, Xiahou An personally cooked a few dishes, and added homemade wine, which made everyone feel so satisfying to eat and drink.

"Come on, let us respect Zixie and the county book together, and thank you for bringing back so much food to us!"

Xiahou An held up the wine cup to celebrate the merits of Cao Ang and Ni Heng.

The generals in the tent also raised their glasses.

Cao Ang respected him one by one, while Ni Heng only responded to Xiahou An. In his eyes, the others were not qualified.

After a few sips of wine, everyone's faces were flushed.

"It's so beautiful!"

The drunk Ni Heng danced with the pillar in his arms.

Cao Ang looked at Xiahou An drunkenly and said to himself: "Boyang, there is something I still want to ask, are you sure that you can support them with so many people?"

As soon as these words were spoken, many people looked at Xiahou An.

This is also their concern. Even if there is the food and supplies transported by Cao Ang, it will be fine in a short period of time, but if this continues, it will definitely not be delayed next year's spring.

So the question arises, what should they eat after the food is exhausted?

It has been a while since I came to Duchang, and Xiahou An also had a general understanding of the surrounding terrain. He asked everyone: "Who knows where is north of Duchang?"

Wu Anguo, whose cheeks were red due to drunkenness, raised his only left hand as quickly as possible and quickly answered: "Lord, it's Bohai."

Xiahou An nodded, yes, it was Bohai.

"So, what's in the sea?"
