"Damn it!" Yuan Xi returned to the conference hall and threw his helmet directly on the ground, and the entire battle loss was counted.

Xu You's front army, Cao Cao's vanguard army, the Yuan family army left him 15,000 people and thousands of prisoners, which could be considered a great victory. However, if Yuan Shang, Yuan Xi's third brother, heard that Yuan Xi's third brother, was fine, then this would naturally be a great victory. Unfortunately, Yuan Shang was blinded by victory and did not take it back when it was time to take it back. On the contrary, he fought out. In this way, he was attacked by the halberds and Xu Huang's troops there, and there was no original advantage.

Cao Cao's army was destroyed by more than 20,000, and his Yuan family army also lost more than 10,000 troops, including one thousand new heavy armored stairs. Cao Cao had an army of 300,000, while their Yuan family army was only 100,000. If this kind of war continues, Cao Cao has not been eliminated yet, so he will be finished first.

"Haha!" Yuan Shang didn't say anything, and there was something called embarrassment on his face. If he had listened to his second brother, it would not have become like this. Now the original victory was discounted.

"Hey, I'll say third brother. Since the second brother is the commander of the entire army, you should support the second brother's words! You said that you are like this now, right! Hey, hey!" Yuan Tan gloated on the side, and it was not his soldiers who lost it anyway.

Yuan Xi has the least soldiers and horses, and Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan are comparable, so naturally they don’t want each other to be the commander. If one of them has a bad idea and let his troops consume the opponent’s soldiers in the rear, it would be a loss! So the two of them compromised and let Yuan Xi, the weakest, become the commander.

If Yuan Xi said something about him, Yuan Shang, Yuan Shang might not be angry. Because it was indeed Yuan Shang's fault, and Yuan Xi still caused him to lose smaller troops for his own good, while Yuan Tan was sarcastic. You know, they were enemies half a month ago and were fighting each other. After Yuan Tan said this, Yuan Shang immediately jumped up.

"Yuan Tan, I admit that I was wrong, but it was my soldiers who lost it. What are you calling!" Yuan Shang didn't give Yuan Tan any face and called him by his name.

"I am reminding you to put the overall situation first. If you continue like this, don't fight this battle. You will throw away all our armor and swords. This commander will still let you take action! "Yuan Tan also spoke directly to Yuan Shang.

"I will naturally make up for the lost troops. Isn't it just some armored swords? I will buy it if it is gone!" Yuan Shang said unconvinced to Yuan Tan.

"Buy? Do you have money?" Yuan Tan said.

"Who said I don't have money? Isn't it just over a thousand armors and weapons? I still have it." Yuan Shang waved his hand and immediately someone gave him hundreds of swords. Yuan Shang looked like he was old man, and I was not short of money.

"Okay! Yuan Shang. You actually went to buy weapons and armor privately with me and my second brother on your back. What do you mean?" Yuan Tan accused Yuan Shang.

"I bought weapons and armor privately? Then my dear brother, I would like to ask you where the dress-up weapons and armor in your camp came from? Could it be that Liaodong Gongsun Du was kicked by a donkey and gave it to you for free?" Yuan Shang did not retreat at all. Yuan Shang secretly bought weapons and armor. Did you, Yuan Tan, have not bought them? Anyway, they have broken up, so it would be better to say them all.

"Okay, enough!" Yuan Xi shouted suddenly, pulled out the sword in his hand, and directly chopped the desk with one sword. Yuan Xi's eyes were full of anger. "Do you still have me as the commander in your eyes?" At that time, now these two people are still fighting each other, Yuan Xi was really sad. Father, this is your legitimate son, and the other is your favorite son, all of whom are rats, and they are in a nest.

"Brother, I don't care whether you and the third brother bought weapons and armor privately! If you have money, go buy them. This time it is your fault, so you must add the lost armor and weapons. There is another sentence, except for this time, and I will tell you that this time, and I will not be an example. If there is a second violation of military order, then whoever you like to take this commander will be taken as me, Yuan Xi, I, was immediately withdrawn!" Yuan Xi was really angry. These two brothers did not take him seriously at all. They were already doing their own things. When was it time? Cao Cao outside was eyeing each other and there was no need to fight. You can kill your own people alone.

"Second brother, don't worry, I have been listening to your commander. If you ask me to go east, I will never go west. There are some people who may not listen to you!" Yuan Tan said as he smiled sarcastically at Yuan Shang over there.

"Hmph, don't worry if you listen or not, brother. Don't worry, second brother, don't be so good!" Yuan Shang also clasped his fists at Yuan Xi and said a few words before he was about to leave. He really didn't want to stay here anymore.

Yuan Tan looked at Yuan Shang's unhappy expression, and he naturally felt relieved and said goodbye to Yuan Xi.

‘Hey!” Yuan Xi looked at his elder brother and third brother, and didn’t know what to say. It would be a day to last.

...

In the camp of Cao Cao's army in Jizhou.

Cao Cao picked up a blood-stained sword in his hand and looked at the cold light on it, and couldn't help but murmur to himself, "Are these new swords used by the Yuan family army?"

"Yes, lord! These are the swords used by the Yuan family's children. They were the ones who defeated You's vanguard army." Xu You finally became much more honest. He used to be arrogant because he had made contributions. He naturally became proud of his contributions. He could look down on anyone under Cao Cao's command and not give Cao Cao a face, but now it's not possible. He suffered a defeat and lost, so he felt guilty. He no longer called Ah Man, but called him lord.

Hearing Xu You's call at the same time, Cao Cao couldn't help but sneer twice, and his heart was very comfortable. You Xu You are not crazy! Cao Cao really doesn't like this kind of crazy life. Cao Cao had already dealt with a person before, and that person was Ni Heng. He dared to scold Cao Cao in the street. Cao Cao could tolerate it. Cao Cao could not kill him directly, so he killed someone and sent him to Jingzhou. Sure enough, Huang Zu of Jingzhou killed Ni Heng with one sword, which made Cao Cao no longer annoyed. Now Xu You is here again. Cao Cao is not good at killing him. It's even worse to send Cao Cao away like Ni Heng. After all, our Xu You still made great contributions to Cao Cao. Wuchao offers suggestions. It can be said that if it weren't for Xu You, Cao Cao wouldn't have won Yuan Shao so quickly, and it can even be said that he would be defeated and returned.

It is even more impossible to kill directly, it will be disappointing, so you can't kill him or send him away. Cao Cao could only endure it. On several occasions, Cao Cao couldn't help but chop Xu You. Xu You offered advice to Wuchao, Xu You persuaded to surrender to Yecheng, and Xu You appeased the gentry in Hebei. These contributions made Xu You even more rampant. Now that Xu You was defeated, he naturally became cowardly. Cao Cao was also happy.

Cao Cao felt comfortable at the edge of the corner but was very calm. "Yes!" The calmer Cao Cao became, the more shocked Xu You became.

"Comeone comes to get the sword!" Cao Cao evaluated the sword like the Yuan brothers. Sure enough, the results of this test made Cao Cao's subordinates shocked. After this sword appeared, the weapons in their Cao army's hands were like fire sticks. They were no match for this kind of sword at all. Only the Qinghong Sword and the Yitian Sword in Cao Cao's hand could break them.

There are not so many magical tools like Qinghong Sword and Yitian Sword in Cao Cao's army.

"How can I fight this battle?" This is the thought of a group of generals.

"Lord, why worry?" Guo Jia came forward. He had to speak because if he didn't speak again, it might have a great impact on morale.

"Lord, although Mr. Xu You was defeated by the Yuan brothers, at least General Xu Rong and General Zhang He won one match and killed more than a thousand enemies." Guo Jia said to the generals. "This shows that the enemy is not invincible."

After the Guo family said this, Cao Cao's generals immediately felt much more comfortable. Yes, although Xu You was defeated, Xu Rong and Zhang He won a game. What can I worry about? Xu You was able to lose so badly, because he was swallowed by the enemy. He thought of a big fuss in the enemy's stomach, but he didn't expect that the stomach acid almost melted.

"And lord, have you noticed that these people holding new swords and armor are only a few, only a few thousand men! The Yuan brothers have not yet been able to equip the entire army." Guo Jia said to everyone. When Xu You was surrounded, Guo Jia discovered that the most unlucky one was Xu You. He was cut into vegetables by the enemy and was stunned when he touched it. The others, whether it was Zhang He's halberd soldiers, tiger and leopard cavalry, or even Xu Rong's soldiers, did not encounter such enemies holding new swords, which shows that the enemy has not yet been able to equip this new swords to the entire army.

If it is assembled into the entire army, then Cao Cao's army will not fight. They have also tried it. Only three times the strength of the troops can suppress the enemy. If it is less than this number, it will be slaughtered.

"But even if you don't have the entire army now, you will slowly equip the entire army!" A general stood up and spoke to Guo Jia.

Everyone also nodded. This new weapon was probably only developed or equipped. If it was delayed, it would sooner or later be equipped to the entire army. How can I fight then?

"No!" Guo Jia shook his head. If these new weapons were made by the Yuan brothers, I'm afraid they would have taken them out to show up with us long ago, and they would not have reached this point. What's more, if this was the weapon of their Yuan brothers, do you think they would share the relationship between Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan?" Guo Jia asked back. This new war knife must have used a new forging method. Guo Jia didn't know what the forging method was, but one thing Guo Jia knew was that neither Yuan Tan nor Yuan Shang believed in the other party. He might even be thinking about how to kill the other party if he could defeat Cao Cao.

If one side knows this method of forging, it will naturally not tell you until you die. Tell the enemy that you are uncomfortable.

If this is not the solution that the Yuan brothers came up with, then there is only one possibility. These new weapons were bought by the Yuan brothers.

Who has such a big deal to sell such magic weapons? He even sold thousands of them at one time.

"Born?" Cao Cao's eyes lit up. If he bought it, then it means that Cao Cao could also buy it?

"Give up, lord, I'm afraid anyone who buys weapons can sell them, and you are the one who is the most unlikely to sell them." Guo Jia poured a basin of cold water on Cao Cao's head.

"Why is this? Doesn't he make money if he has money?" Cao Cao is rich now. He has Jizhou, Bingzhou, Qingzhou, Yanzhou and Zhili are in hand. It can be said that he is rich enough to compete with the country. Merchants seek profits. Do he want to make money if he has money?

"Lord. The merchant is treacherous. But you have to know that the benefits you give are not enough!" Guo Jia shook his head. The Yuan brothers are now blocked in Youzhou, and his connection with the Central Plains has been cut off. It is impossible for him to buy weapons from Cao Cao's territory. If this was sold on Cao Cao's territory, then Cao Cao would probably have equipped these new combat swords and armor long ago. Cao Cao would not let these weapons and armor slip out.

In the north? Are there those foreign tribes in the north? How could barbarians like the Wuhuan Xianbei create such a powerful weapon? The weapons among them were sold to them by the Central Plains.

Then there is only one place left, that is Gongsun Du from Liaodong. Gongsun Du made these new weapons himself? Guo Jia didn't believe that this King of Liaodong had a great ambition. If he had such technology, he would have expanded his territory long ago and would not have been hiding in Liaodong.

Then there is only one person.

"Liu Mang, King of Shu in Yangzhou?" Cao Cao and Guo Jia looked at each other and said the name with a wry smile.

The sea routes in Liaodong have been opened, and Cao Cao and Guo Jia have known this for a long time. This is why Cao Cao's brushing against Gongsun Du changed from the first village marquis and General Wuwei to the later king of Liaodong. The purpose is to make the king of Liaodong give up the benefits of Liu Mang, the king of Shu in Yangzhou.

Now Liu Mang, the King of Shu in Yangzhou, transported weapons and grain to Liaodong by sea. The Yuan brothers bought weapons, armor and grain from Liaodong. To put it bluntly, Gongsun Du from Liaodong is a second-hand dealer. As long as the Yuan family has money, they can naturally buy the weapons of the Yangzhou army from Gongsun Du.

"What should I do?" Cao Cao frowned. If the Yuan brothers bought new weapons and armor from Liaodong step by step, it would be difficult for him to defeat the Yuan brothers.

"Don't worry, lord!" Guo Jia said to Cao Cao. "Although we cannot buy those weapons from Shu King Liu Mang, at least the Yuan brothers will not have too many. Such weapons cannot be too cheap." Guo Jia explained to Cao Cao.

If these new weapons were very cheap, the Yuan brothers would have been rich and equipped with the entire army with great wealth. You should know that although the Yuan brothers lost Bingzhou, Qingzhou, Jizhou, the wealth plundered in these three places was brought to Youzhou by their brothers. It is not an exaggeration to say that the two brothers are nouveau riche.

Such nouveau riche will naturally buy as much good things when you see them, but even such nouveau riche is only equipped with a force of thousands of people, which means that those weapons and armor are of great value.

Cao Cao felt a little more comfortable after being said by the Guo family. If the Yuan brothers had all the 100,000 troops of such weapons and armor, Cao Cao would have cried. The generals of Cao Cao's army below also breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that his troops would not encounter the elite Yuan family army of thousands.

"Okay!" Guo Jia said to everyone, "Mr. Xu You, this time I can know that the enemy's new weapon is still based on Mr. Xu You's contribution. The lord's meritorious minister will naturally have to reward him." Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao and Xu You over there.

"I dare not, I dare not!" Xu You lowered his head, but he felt very comfortable. Xu You naturally knew that taking back these new weapons might have to lose the vanguard's fault and offset the merits and demerits. But he didn't expect that Guo Jia would even ask Cao Cao to reward him. This was a benefit that exceeded Xu You's expectations, but who wouldn't want the benefits? So although Xu You lowered his head and was very modest, the arrogant look on his face appeared.

Looking at Xu You's arrogant look, Cao Cao subconsciously frowned, and a feeling of disgust appeared on his face. He looked at Guo Jia in confusion. If it weren't for Guo Jia, Cao Cao might not have sent reinforcements to rescue Xu You. Now Xu You died at the hands of the Yuan brothers, so he would not stand in front of him.

Cao Cao did not use the hands of the Yuan brothers over there to kill Xu You because he was afraid that the general who was killed by the vanguard army would have a huge impact on morale, but this does not mean that Cao Cao would reward him Xu You. Xu You was originally very proud, and if he rewarded him again, it would be better for God.

Cao Cao saw Guo Jia blinking at him, thinking that Guo Jia would not harm him, so he nodded, "Yes, Ziyuan brought back the new weapon of the Yuan family child this time. Let me understand it. I will not suffer any further in the battle formation behind. This is a reward. Come on, I will reward Ziyuan with a hundred golds, a hundred silks and a pair of Dongzhu!" Cao Cao would not reward Xu You with the official position. Xu You now has a position as the governor of Jizhou. If Cao Cao promoted Xu You to the official position, then there would be only three dukes. If he reached that position, Xu You would not be able to go to heaven.

"Thank you for your reward!" Xu You smiled. Not only did you lose this 30,000 army, but you also have the reward. Who can be appreciated by me, Xu You? Ah, you are worthy of being my childhood friend. Xu You is proud of the generals and escorts of Cao Cao's army below. Can you compare with my relationship with my lord? We are childhood friends, and we have been playing together since childhood. I even became Cao Cao's second brother. Cao Cao was also following my butt back then. Xu You was proud.

On the other side, Guo Jia couldn't help but smile when he looked at Xu You.

"Master. Since ancient times, those who have accomplished great things have clearly distinguished rewards and punishments, and the lord is even more wise! Naturally, heavier rewards and punishments." Guo Jia said to everyone. Xu You also responded to the other side, "Meng De is indeed a wise ruler."

Xu You immediately changed his name and became proud after being rewarded by Cao Cao. From a lord to Meng De, although the words of mutual address between the ancients mean a kind of intimacy, you have to know where this place is. This is the main camp of the Central Army, Cao Cao is the king, and they are ministers. Even if Guo Jia has a close relationship with Cao Cao, he still calls Cao Cao the lord in this place to give Cao Cao face, not to be inseparable from public and private affairs, but Xu You is different.

Cao Cao's eyes flashed and Guo Jia also showed murderous intent next to him.

You, Xu You, humiliated him, Guo Jia, didn't care at all. He was a prodigal son. He was used to playing in the world. If you scold him, just scold him. Anyway, I just barked him as a dog. However, Xu You's attitude towards Cao Cao made the Guo family angry. Guo Jia may not care about himself, but he cannot ignore Cao Cao. Cao Cao is his best friend. He is determined to help Cao Cao achieve great achievements. All those who stand in front of Cao Cao's great achievements are his death.

Now Xu You didn't give Cao Cao face and even called him crazy. Isn't this embarrassing Cao Cao? How can you say about Cao Cao's dignity?

"If you give this reward to your lord, you should have been punished!" Guo Jia's words turned and immediately became murderous. Xu You on the other side was shocked. He subconsciously knew that it was not good, but he was still calm in his heart. After all, Xu You is also a first-class strategist. If he had no ability, he would not be attracted to Yuan Shao. However, Yuan Shao did not expect that the one who betrayed him in the end was his most trusted confidant.

"Punishment? How to punish!" Cao Cao and Guo Jia sang a double act.

"Come on, take Xu You down!" Guo Jia suddenly changed his face and shouted to his soldiers.

"Yes!" Guo Jia and Cao Cao had a close relationship, so Cao Cao's personal guard also listened to Guo Jia's words.

"Who dares?" Xu You finally knew where the uneasiness in his heart came from. It turned out that Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao wanted to attack him. After Xu You shouted, Cao Cao's personal guard really didn't dare to attack Xu You.

Because Xu You said this, he was Cao Cao's best friend, and his status was not low. If he could really kill him, it would be a good idea. If he couldn't kill him, Guo Jia might not have much to do with him, but their personal guards would be in trouble.

"Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao, what do you want?" Xu You said sternly to Guo Jia.

"I don't want to do anything! Mr. Xu You, our lord is a wise master, you have said that, so as a wise master, you must naturally reward and punish. If you have any merits, you will naturally reward, and if you have any mistakes, you will naturally punish!" Guo Jia said to Xu You with a smile.

"Punishment? Humph! Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao. Although I, Xu You, have had it, my merits and demerits have been offset. My former army's vanguard battalion was defeated. That was because I underestimated the enemy, but I also brought the new weapons and armor of the Yuan family!" Xu You defended himself.

"Yes, merits and demerits can be offset!" Cao Cao also spoke. He did not say to Xu You, but to Guo Jia, who was defending Xu You on the surface, but in fact he was asking Guo Jia, are you sure to kill Xu You?

"Lord, this merit and demerit can be offset, but something strange cannot be offset." Guo Jia squeezed his eyes at Cao Cao, and Cao Cao immediately understood what Guo Jia meant, and he was very sure.

"What!" Cao Cao asked in confusion.

"The person comes to bring such things here!" Guo Jia shouted to his subordinates.

"yes!"

As soon as he heard Guo Jia say this, Xu You immediately understood what Guo Jia was saying, it was that. He widened his eyes. Sure enough, what Guo Jia asked his subordinates to bring with him was not anything else that Xu You was most worried about. "Military Order!"

"No!" Xu You roared in his heart.

"Mr. Ziyuan! The key to establishing a military order is to increase pressure and leave no way out. Anyone with a little common sense knows that establishing a military order is extremely risky, because there is no joke in the army. If there is no joke in the army, it is to be fulfilled. If the sir breaks his promise, it will be bad!" Guo Jia looked at Xu You with a smile, but he was like a devil in front of Xu You.

"Guo Jia, you are so humble!" Xu You pointed at Guo Jia and shouted loudly.

"How did Mr. Ziyuan say this?" Guo Jia called for his wrongdoing. "Mr. Ziyuan rushed to go to the first battle of this army. Is there any obstacle for Guo Jia?" Not only did Guo Jia not stop Xu You, but other generals were even forced to go to the first battle one by one, and they did not hesitate to write a military order.

"You even recommend Mr. Ziyuan like his lord! How is this from Mr. Yin Ziyuan?" Guo Jia asked innocently, "It's just that Mr. Ziyuan, you have let down the lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord's lord'
