Then Cao Cao joined forces with Yuan Tan to attack Yecheng directly, and he could only go north to Yuan Xi's territory in Youzhou.
When Yuan Shao was at his strongest, he occupied four prefectures, namely Youzhou, Bingzhou, Jizhou, and Qingzhou at the moment.
This power can be said to be unique to the big man.
During the Battle of Guandu, compared with Cao Cao's territory, the gap was not even a star and a half, but Yuan Shao lost.
Winner and loser, since Yuan Shao lost to Cao Cao, naturally these things cannot be kept, and it is reasonable to be taken away.
Yuan Xi was right next to Yuan Shang, his appearance was refined, he was not as angry as Yuan Shang, he was very calm.
Seeing Yuan Xi's reaction like this, Yuan Shang said helplessly:
"Second brother, what time is it? Don't you worry at all? Cao Jun will call here soon."
Yuan Xi sighed, looked at Yuan Shang, and said:
"The current situation is like this, we are afraid that we will be powerless."
On this matter, Yuan Xi was very pessimistic. Cao Jun came so fiercely that he didn't dare to resist, and was terrified in his heart.
When Yuan Shao chose his successor, the candidates were mainly Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, and the most inconspicuous one was Yuan Xi.
Yuan Xi served as governor of Youzhou here, and did not return for several years.
Yuan Shao likes Yuan Shang because he thinks this son is like himself.As for Yuan Tan as the eldest son, he naturally has a foundation.
Yuan Shang hated that iron cannot be made into steel, and said bitterly:
"Second brother, this is the end of the matter, if I don't wait to try, I really can only let Cao thief do whatever he wants."
Yuan Xi remained silent, and he even wanted to surrender directly.
However, Yuan Shang didn't agree. He liked to jump around like Yuan Shao, and some stable choices were rejected instead.
Therefore, Yuan Shang's eyes were slightly cold, and he continued:
"Second brother, have you forgotten the great enmity of the Yuan family, and the sister-in-law who stayed in Yecheng is now someone else's wife?"
Although the Yuan brothers were in Youzhou, they didn't know the news of Jizhou, especially Chen Jue was still making a lot of noise.
Looking at Yuan Shang, Yuan Xi continued:
"Second brother, are you willing to watch your sister-in-law being molested by others, and still stay out of it, as if nothing happened?"
Hearing this, the corners of Yuan Xi's mouth twitched slightly.
In fact, he didn't care about Zhen Mi at all, after all, she was just a woman, so what did she have to do with him, why bother?
Not many people know about Yuan Xi's own problem. The doctor who treated him at the beginning said it was one, Yuan Shao was one, his mother was one, and his nominal wife Zhen Mi.
As for whether Zhen Mi told others, it was not in Yuan Xi's consideration.
So Yuan Shang didn't know about Yuan Xi's problem, and wanted to use these words to provoke Yuan Xi and make him resist along with him.
Seeing Yuan Xi finally reacted, Yuan Shang couldn't help being a little excited:
"Second brother, you must have heard that my sister-in-law is living in the hands of bandits, it is a great shame to my Yuan family..."
Yuan Shang kept talking.
Yuan Xi let out a breath of foul air slowly, and finally said:
"Needless to say, I understand as a brother, what do you want to do, third brother?"
Even if Yuan Xi didn't care about Zhen Mi, they didn't have a physical relationship, and they didn't sleep together on their wedding day...
But he still doesn't want his woman to act recklessly in the arms of others, this is a humiliation to him and even the Yuan family.
Seeing this, Yuan Shang smiled.
Although Yuan Shang is very smart, sometimes he has good ideas. He naturally has a strategy to persuade Yuan Xi in this way.
So Yuan Shanglang said:
"Cao's bandits are coming so fiercely now. With the strength of Youzhou's troops, it is naturally impossible to deal with it. We need to find helpers."
Yuan Xi was startled, and said in astonishment:
"Based on the current situation, whoever dares to disobey Cao Cao and give a helping hand to my family Yuan, I am afraid that this matter will be difficult to handle."
Hearing this, Yuan Shang did not deny it, but said:
"Second brother, although what you said is not bad, you and I are not alone, there are Bingzhou, Liaodong and Beidi."
Bingzhou Inspector Gao Gan is Yuan Shao's son-in-law.
Speaking of which, they are relatives with Brother Yuan Xi, but since Yuan Shaoliang died, the relationship has long been estranged.
Now Cao Cao is concentrating his troops and attacking Youzhou with all his strength. He wants to take down the Yuan brothers first, but the senior officials are just waiting and watching.
Yuan Xi remained silent, and then said:
"I'm afraid this matter will not be so easy. Senior officials will not send troops easily."
Obviously, Yuan Xi had already tried.
Yuan Shang is not unclear, at this moment secretly gritted his teeth and said:
"I can only try again. If Gao Gan really wants to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, he will definitely die in the hands of Cao thief."
This is an uncertain choice.
Next is the Liaodong Gongsun family, which now has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and is not far from Youzhou.
Yuan Xi sighed again, and said:
"Actually, the Gongsun family in Liaodong would not send troops. Cao Cao has no grudges with them, so how could he provoke them so easily?"
Yuan Shang was speechless, but Yuan Xi did see it thoroughly.
Liaodong is also considered a remote place for the great Han. Even if the straight line distance is not far, it is not easy for Cao Cao to fight there.
With its own choice, it is impossible for Liaodong to offend Cao Cao and help the basically cool Yuan family.
Anyone with a little brain can clearly see the current situation, the Yuan brothers have nowhere to go.
However, Yuan Xi was lucky enough to add:
