    "There is no food in the city at this time. We can send old, weak and remnant soldiers and women to surrender. Cao Cao will not be prepared. I will follow the people with my troops and attack them."  Kindness will only harm major events. Xun Chen had no choice but to follow it.

    The next day, a white flag was erected on the city with the words "The people of Jizhou surrender". Some soldiers came to report to Cao Cao. Cao Cao saw the conspiracy at a glance and said coldly.

    "There must be no food in the city. If you teach the old and weak people to surrender, then there will be troops coming out."

    Cao Cao saw through his plan and asked Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan to lead 3,000 troops each and lie down on both sides. Cao Cao rode his horse and Zhang Huigai to the bottom of the city. As expected, he saw the city gate open and the people carrying old and young, carrying white flags, came out. Only then did all the people come out.  , the concealed soldiers and horses in the city suddenly rushed out

    Cao Cao had been on guard for a long time and taught his soldiers the red flag move. Two soldiers of the Xiahou brothers came out to kill indiscriminately. The soldiers in the city had to return. Cao Cao came from Pegasus to the suspension bridge. Crossbow arrows rained down from the city, hitting Cao Cao's helmet, which was dangerous.  The crowd will send first aid back to the battle

    Cao Cao changed his clothes and horses, and actually led the crowd to attack Yuan Shang's stronghold. When Yuan Shang met the enemy in person, all the troops and horses came to kill him.  Yuan Shang was defeated and led his defeated troops to retreat to Xishanxiazhai. He ordered Ma Yan and Zhang Wei's troops to come. Unexpectedly, Cao Cao had sent Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang to recruit the two generals of An and the two generals to surrender with Er Lu. Cao was also granted the title of Liehou.

    Immediately they marched to attack Xishan. They first sent Erlu, Ma Yan, and Zhang Wei to cut off Yuan Shang's grain road. Yuan Shang was shocked when he heard that the grain road was cut off. He knew that Xishan could not be defended. He wandered around at night talking nonsense, but he didn't know that the camp had not been settled. There were fires all around.  , the ambush troops all came out, the men were no longer strong enough for armor, and the horses were not strong enough for saddles, they were brutally killed by the ambush troops.

    Yuan Shang's army was defeated and retreated fifty miles. It was extremely weak. The soldiers and officials all urged Yuan Shang to surrender. Yuan Shang was at the end of his rope and had nothing to lose, so he had to send envoys to Cao Cao's camp to ask for surrender.  Yue Jin went in to rob the stronghold and Yuan Shang was preparing to lead his troops to surrender. All his soldiers wanted to surrender to Cao's camp early. Unexpectedly, Yu Jin and Le Jin suddenly led their troops to rob the stronghold. Yuan Shang's army was in chaos. He was killed and fled in all directions. Yuan Shang was in extremely embarrassed state.  Abandoning the seals, ribbons, axes, clothes and armor, and the baggage, they fled towards Zhongshan. Cao Cao attacked and destroyed Yuan Shang's troops, and returned to attack Ye County.

    Xu You saw that Jizhou was to be conquered and destroyed, so he immediately offered his plan.

    "Why doesn't the Prime Minister control the water in the Zhang River and flood it?"

    Cao Cao followed his plan, and sometimes Guo Jia was standing by, smiling lightly and adding a few words. Cao Cao's eyes lit up when he heard this, so Cao Cao first sent his troops to dig trenches outside the city. Forty miles around, Xun Chen saw Cao's troops digging outside the city.  The chasm was dug very shallowly

    Xun Chen laughed secretly and talked to the left and right

    "Cao Mengde wants to drain the water of the Zhang River to irrigate the city. The ditch is deep enough to irrigate, but it is so shallow, what is the use?"

    Xun Chen then did not prepare, but he did not know that that night Cao Cao sent ten times more soldiers to dig out. By the time of dawn, the area was two feet wide and deep. He diverted water from Zhangzhou to fill it. The water in the city was several feet deep and the food supply was exhausted. The soldiers all starved to death.

    Xinpi received Cao Cao's order and used a gun to pick up Yuan Shang's Yin Shou clothes outside the city to recruit people in the city.  Unexpectedly, the guard of Ximen judged Rong, who had always been friendly with Xinpi. Seeing that Xinpi's family was killed, he felt angry, so he secretly wrote a letter dedicated to the gate, tied it to an arrow, and shot it down the city.

    The sergeant picked up Xinpi and presented it to him. Xinpi immediately stopped crying and hurried back to Cao Cao's camp. After presenting the book to Cao Cao, Cao Cao did not laugh with joy. Instead, he sighed and silently cursed in his heart.

    "Yuan Benchu, tomorrow your Yuan family will be uprooted by me, but you don't need to panic. For the sake of past friendship, I will keep you alive as a family."

    Cao Cao thinks about it and gives the order first

    "If you enter Ye County, you will not kill any of the Yuan family, old or young. Those soldiers and civilians who surrender will be spared death."

    At dawn the next day, Shen Rong opened the west gate and let Cao's soldiers enter. Cao's army rushed to enter the city first.  The city was fighting to the death. When Xiahou Dun was about to hand over his horse, Xiahou Dun was so powerful that he defeated Xun Chen with one move, captured him alive, and tied him out of the city.

    Meeting Xinpi on the road, Xinpi gnashed his teeth, whipped Xunchen¡¯s head with a whip, and shouted angrily:

    "The thief died today"

    Xun Chen was not afraid, but instead cursed

    "The Xinpi thieves led Cao Cao to destroy our Jizhou. I hate to eat your flesh and drink your blood."

    Xin Pi wanted to beat Xun Chen to death, but Xia Hou Dun stopped him. After that, Xia Hou Dun dismissed Xun Chen and came to see Cao Cao.

    Xun Chen¡¯s life and death were in Cao Cao¡¯s hands, but he still glared at Cao Cao. Cao Cao looked down with squinted eyes, and first asked

    "Yesterday I came to the city to fight. Why are there so many crossbows in the city?"

    Xun Chen shouted angrily

    "Hate less and hate less"

    Yesterday, Cao Cao was almost shot to death by a hidden arrow. As soon as Xun Chen said this, all the generals behind Cao Cao were furious and wanted to come and tear Xun Chen alive. Cao Cao waved his hand, his face was very calm, and said

    "You are loyal to the Yuan family."?If this is not the case, are you willing to surrender to me now?  "

    Xun Chen was so hysterical that he shouted violently

    "No surrender, no surrender"

    On the side, Xin Pi saw that Cao Cao wanted to take Xun Chen away, so he cried and bowed to the ground, and shouted miserably:

    "More than eighty members of my family were all killed by this thief. I hope the Prime Minister will kill them all to avenge this hatred."

    Xun Chen drank loudly again

    "I was born as a minister of the Yuan family and died as a ghost of the Yuan family. I am not like you who framed the thief Cao who was a flatterer. You can kill me."

    Cao Cao saw that Xun Chen was bent on seeking death, so he taught his soldiers to take Xun Chen out before he was executed, and scolded the executioners.

    "My lord is in the north, don't let me die facing south."

    After Xun Chen drank, he knelt down to the north, slashed his neck, blood flew out, and his head fell to the ground.

    After Xun Chen died, Cao Cao took pity on his loyalty and ordered him to be buried in the north of the city. The generals invited Cao Cao to enter the city. Cao Cao was about to start, when he saw someone approaching with swords and axes. Cao Cao saw that it was Chen Lin.

    When Cao Cao saw Chen Lin and thought of his words, his expression changed and he asked coldly

    "You came here to apologize to Benchu, but the crime is so trivial, why are you insulting my grandfather?"

    Chen Lin was so frightened that she knelt down and quickly told her

    "At that time, I couldn't help myself. I had an arrow on the string, and I had to wait for the Prime Minister to forgive me."

    The officers and men on the left and right all urged Cao Cao to kill him. Cao Cao felt sorry for his talent and pardoned him, and ordered Chen Lin to do the work.

    But it is said that Cao Pi, the eldest son of Cao Cao, named Zihuan, was 18 years old. When Pi was born, there was a cloud, which was blue and purple in color and round like a car cover, covering his room.

    "This emperor's spirit also makes his successor unspeakably noble"

    At the age of eight, Cao Pi was able to be a literary scholar. He was talented, knowledgeable about the past, good at riding and shooting, and good at hitting. Cao Cao defeated Jizhou. He did not follow his father in the army. He led an army first and went to Yuan Shao's house. He dismounted and drew his sword and entered his eldest brother Cao Ang.  Yi Junzhong quickly blocked the road

    "My father has an order that no one is allowed to enter Yuan Shao's house, and my second brother must not commit any offences."

    Cao Pi rolled his eyes, had a plan in mind, and suddenly shouted

    "That's exactly what happened. Just now, I saw several people sneaking in, so I chased them. If you don't believe me, come and see me."

    Cao Pi was quite quick-witted and unruly, very similar to Cao Cao when he was young. However, Cao Cao was very strict with him and was very worried about his nature. On the contrary, Cao Cao's eldest son, Cao Ang, named Zixiu, was born to the Liu family, but his biological mother was early.  After his death, Cao Ang was raised by Ding, Cao Cao's main wife. He was modest, kind, and quite like a wise ruler, but Cao Cao loved him very much.

    When Cao Pi said something serious, Cao Ang's expression changed, and he rushed into Yuan Shao's mansion, intending to capture the people Cao Pi was talking about. When Cao Pi saw Cao Ang running in first, he chuckled, and then murmured in a low voice.

    "My eldest brother is really easy to deceive. With you taking the lead, my second brother is not afraid of being arrogant in this world-shaking Yuan Mansion."

    After Cao Pi thought about it, he hurriedly followed Cao Ang in. The two rushed to the back hall. They didn't see anyone who had committed the crime. Instead, they saw two women hugging each other and crying.

    Cao Ang was kind-hearted, and he hated to see women crying. When he was in a panic, Cao Pi stared straight at a woman with red eyes. Cao Pi pressed the stalk back and asked

    "Who are you waiting for?"

    A woman trembled slightly and said quickly

    "I am the wife of General Yuan, Mrs. Liu"

    Cao Pi turned to look at the other woman and asked again

    "Who is this woman?"

    Ms. Liu collected her tears and told her

    "This is the Zhen family, the wife of the second son Yuan Xi. Because Yuan Xi left the town of Youzhou, the Zhen family was unwilling to travel far, so she stayed here."

    Cao Pi chuckled, his eyes were shining, and he dragged the girl closer. He saw her hair was covered with dirt, so he wanted to wipe her face with his shirt sleeve to take a look.

    "Second brother, don't be rude"

    Cao Ang saw that Cao Pi was acting like a prodigal son, and shouted quickly. Unexpectedly, when Cao Pi moved his hand, the expressions of the two brothers suddenly changed, and they were stunned for a while. They saw that the Zhen family was born with jade flowers, like a fish and a wild goose, and the Cao brothers had the appearance of conquering the country.  I was distracted for a while, and seemed a little at a loss what to do.

    Mrs. Liu saw this and was secretly happy in her heart. Cao Pi became lustful and wanted to take the Zhen family as his own. His mind was racing, and suddenly his expression condensed and he said to Mrs. Liu.

    "Madam, there is no need to panic. Our two brothers are the sons of Prime Minister Cao. We respect General Yuan as a man and would like to protect your family. Don't worry."

    Cao Pi praised Haikou, Cao Ang was anxious, and was about to stop him, but unexpectedly, the Liu family and the Zhen family came to thank Cao Ang. Cao Pi was in a panic, and he was fascinated by the Zhen family's beauty.  After a few words, Cao Ang unknowingly agreed to the matter. When Cao Ang came to his senses, Cao Pi had already crossed his legs and pressed him into the hall very proudly. Cao Ang made a very heavy promise, let alone a promise to a beauty, so he immediately had no choice but to  Then, he sat next to Cao Pi

    But it was said that Cao Cao led the generals into Ye City. When they were about to enter the city gate, Xu You rode his horse and approached, feeling very proud.Point the whip at the city gate and call Cao Cao

    "Aha, you don't want me to enter this door?"

    Cao Cao narrowed his eyes, but he immediately laughed to cover up his anger. When the generals behind Cao Cao heard this, they all felt grievances and became even more displeased with Xu You. Cao Cao rushed to the door of Yuan Mansion, saw the door open, and immediately asked angrily

    "Who has ever entered this door?"

    When the guard saw that Cao Cao was angry, he dared not hide it, so he quickly told him

    "The Crown Prince and the Second Young Master are both inside."

    "Call out these two traitors to me"

    Cao Cao shouted angrily, and the brothers Cao Ang and Cao Pi who were in the back hall heard it and hurried to the gate. When Cao Cao saw Cao Ang and Cao Pi, he immediately scolded them. The two brothers knew they were guilty and did not dare to refute. After being scolded by Cao Cao,  Cao Pi winked at Cao Ang, signaling Cao Ang to tell Cao Cao about the Liu family and the Zhen family.

    Cao Ang was not good at lying, and was speechless for a while. Cao Pi stared repeatedly and made small moves secretly. When Cao Cao saw it, he knew that it was Cao Pi who was instigating Cao Ang to do something shady. When he was about to reprimand, Liu rushed out and met him.  As soon as Cao Cao paid homage to Cao Cao, he learned the identity of the Liu family and quickly treated the Liu family with courtesy. From the name Cao Ang had just addressed Cao Pi, he guessed Cao Ang's identity and immediately made up a story, saying that Cao Ang was in love with the Zhen family.

    "I can't save my family unless I am the prince, so I would like to let Mrs. Zhen hold the dustpan for the prince."

    Cao Cao taught him to call out the Zhen family and bow to him. Cao Cao looked at her. Seeing this girl, she was so amazed that she could compare to the most beautiful woman in the world, Diao Chan. Cao Cao was shocked and asked

    "Are you really in love with my son?"

    After hearing this, Zhen's cheeks turned slightly red, looking a bit coquettish, and she nodded slightly. Cao Cao looked at Cao Ang again. When Cao Ang saw Zhen's nodding, he was overjoyed, and subconsciously nodded too. Cao Cao then ordered the soldiers around Cao Ang to come to congratulate him.  It was rare for Mrs. Liu to smile a little more. Cao Pi was the only one in the scene, standing silently in the dark, with regret and unwillingness in his eyes.

    "Brother, how dare you try to steal my love from me, please remember it."

    ??Cao Pi clenched his hands violently, and he actually felt hatred towards his elder brother Cao Ang because of a woman. At this time, neither Cao Cao nor Cao Ang knew that Cao Pi felt hatred because of this. A crisis to overthrow the Cao family was secretly emerging.
