Chapter 1087 It is better not to fight for the time being
After capturing Yuan Shao, Chen Dao remembered Yuan Tan again.
He asked Qingyang, "Miss Qingyang, I wonder if I have met Yuan Tan?"
"See!" Qingyang replied with a red face: "He brought a few people by, we had appeared and ambushed, but he ran away."
"Why is the girl blushing?" Chen Dao tilted his head and looked at Qingyang, and he smiled: "I haven't mentioned that to the young master yet. Although the young master will most likely agree, before he agrees, the matter between me and the girl is still unknown."
"General, don't talk nonsense." Qingyang said with a red face: "Don't the general want to know where Yuan Tan went?"
"I was about to ask." Chen Dao smiled even more humble: "But when I remembered the private affairs with the girl, I couldn't help but change the topic."
I had heard that Chen Dao was so heroic, but Qingyang didn't expect that he was very good at teasing women.
It seems that after living with Cao Ruo for a long time, even the most serious person will become like Chen Dao.
He sighed softly and said, "Yuan Tan went to the plains, we couldn't catch up."
"What's the girl sighing?" Chen Dao asked with a grin, "Did you feel a little sad when you think you can't marry into my house immediately?"
"The general is so serious." Qingyang said with a red face: "We have something important to do, so let's go first."
He sued, turned around and left.
Several Huo Wu followed her closely.
Looking at her leaving back, Chen Dao's mouth always had a smile.
"Go back to see the young master." Turning back the horse, Chen Dao ordered the Longwen Cavalry soldiers.
Dragon-patterned Rider did not treat Yuan Shao like Huo Wu.
They specially prepared a horse for Yuan Shao.
Chen Dao was with Yuan Shao, and Deputy Commander Deng Zhan led more than a dozen dragon pattern riders in front to make way, while others surrounded Yuan Shao in the middle.
After the battle at Cangting, Cao Shu led the army to advance slowly.
Although the army was moving slowly, every time he went to a place, the speed of surrendering the city originally affiliated with Yuan Tan was not slow.
Many cities did not even resist, so they opened the city gates and welcomed Cao Shu into the city.
After capturing six or seven cities in succession, almost all the eastern part of Qingzhou fell into Cao Shu's hands.
Beihai City.
Cao Shu, who had just entered the city, rode his horse in front of the team, with Tian Feng, Ju Su and the generals gathering beside him.
I don’t know whether the city officials made arrangements in advance or the people spontaneously, but the road was full of people coming to greet them.
The people's eyes were full of enthusiasm and expectations, as if they had long been looking forward to Cao Shu coming here.
"The prestige of the young master is far beyond Qingzhou." Looking at the people on the roadside, Tian Feng said: "As soon as they entered the city, the people would come to greet them. It would be impossible for anyone to do this."
"Maybe it was the Beihai officials who made arrangements in advance." Cao Shuo smiled slightly: "How can the people not be afraid of officials? What did the local officials say? How dare they not come?"
"What the young master said is not unreasonable." Tian Feng said: "Young Master has never thought that if the people are coerced by local officials, they will all look like earth and be full of fear of the young master. But look at the people of Beihai, which one of them is not happy?"
In fact, Cao Shu had long discovered that the people had an unconcealed joy on their faces, but they were just not easy to say in front of everyone.
"The people must have known the young master's achievements in Xuzhou, so they came spontaneously." Ju Su said: "Xuzhou was a place of battles, but now it is rich in people and wealth, and the people live and work in peace. Even in the battle of Cangting, the Yuan family originally planned to enter the Xuzhou territory through Qingzhou. In the end, the war was only controlled in Qingzhou. Even if the people did not know much, they could see that as long as they were under the young master's rule, they could live and work in peace, and never worry about being bullied by displaced and homeless."
"The people are safe and the country is strong, and the country is strong and the people are safe." Cao Shuo said: "The two complement each other and are indispensable."
"What the young master said," everyone responded.
He was walking towards the Beihai government, and a fast horse came up from behind.
When he arrived beside Cao Shu, the knight on the horse shouted: "Young Master Qi, General Chen captured Yuan Shao, Yuan Tan returned to the plain to summon his old subordinates, intending to resist our army's advance westward. Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang retreated to Yecheng. The Yuan family's troops had no established troops and were all destroyed! Feng Ji tried to stop General Chen, but was killed by General Chen."
Cao Shu waved his hand and signaled the knight to retreat.
"There are probably still many bad battles to fight later." Looking at the generals and staff next to him, Cao Shu said: "Our army's new combat equipment is put into use, and the Yuan family will definitely study how to deal with it. The battles behind may not be so easy to fight. However, Feng Ji's performance is indeed unexpected. I didn't expect that he would dare to stop his uncle."
"We and Feng Ji were colleagues and knew him a little bit." Tian Feng said: "This man is narrow-minded and cannot tolerate others. But he has a benefit, he is loyal to the Yuan family. Stopping General Chen should be to create an opportunity for Yuan Gong to escape."
"In this way, he is a generous man." Cao Shuo sighed: "The reason why Hebei has grown and grown is because my father-in-law gathered many courageous, strategic and brave talents. Unfortunately, in the battle of Guandu, the Yuan family lost almost all the foundation. The once powerful family is now only an empty shell."
"Young Master is saying." Ju Su replied: "Actually, whenever I think of this, I can't help but sigh. I was unwilling to follow Cao Gong at the beginning. If it weren't for the young master's move, I would have become the dead soul under Cao Gong's sword..."
"It is a great thing for me to be captured." Cao Shuo said: "If you can bring him back to Shouchun to enjoy your old age, at least you will not lose your morality."
"Our army has occupied the plains. What are the plans for the young master?" Tian Feng asked: "Are we going forward or stop the army?"
"What should I do if I follow Duke Ju and Duke Tian?" Cao Shuo asked.
"The soldiers are exhausted after several days of marching." Tian Feng said: "Yuan Tan will definitely force the guards of all places when he returns to the plains. Xu Yuanzhi supervises the food and grass, and now there are fewer and fewer foods that can be transported to the front, and the days are delayed longer and longer. In my opinion, it is better to delay the march and give the Yuan family a chance to breathe."
"Give them a chance, what if they make a comeback?" Cao Shuo asked.
"The Yuan family can no longer have a chance to make a comeback." Tian Feng said: "Yuan Tan, Yuan Shang has always been dissatisfied. Foreign enemies invade, and the two brothers will abandon their past grudges and fight against the enemy together. However, once they live a stable life, they will want to monopolize the power of Hebei. There will be no peace in the fight between brothers, but the young master is constantly developing all over the country. In another year, the Qingzhou occupied by the young master will also be full of granaries. At that time, the army will be sent out again. Wouldn't it be much stronger if you force yourself to advance today?"
