The opening of the Three Kingdoms is Gatling

Tai Shici also stood up.

"And our Azure Dragon Military Region..."

The commanders of several major military regions began to argue in front of Hua Xiong in a disrespectful manner.

Hua Xiong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and hurriedly said,

"We are not in a hurry to use troops against the Yuan family in the north.

This is the overall score of which military region you have. If you can rank first in the final exam, I will let that military region take charge of the main attack. "

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up, and they secretly made up their minds that they must study hard.

"Okay, let's go back."

Hua Xiong waved his hand.

After everyone dispersed, Guo Jia couldn't help laughing,

"My lord, your move is really wonderful. It successfully aroused their competitive spirit."

"No, good competition can maintain the combat effectiveness of the army."

Hua Xiong replied with a smile.

……

After several months.

In Liyang City.

Yuan Tan sat in the mansion, looking at the hazy sky in the distance, frowning.

At this time, a literati walked in slowly from the outside, bowed his hands and saluted,

"Lord."

2 Combine Chapter [-] and kill your brother

"Zhongzhi, you are here, please sit down."

Yuan Tan stretched his brows, called Xin Ping's name with a smile, and beckoned him to sit down.

As soon as Xin Ping sat down, he sighed.

"My lord, iron materials... are really hard to find."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Tan's smile froze immediately.

Although Yuan Tan was Yuan Shao's eldest son, Yuan Shao preferred his younger son, Yuan Shang.

It's just that he doesn't want to violate the etiquette of establishing a heir and establishing a leader, so he has been hesitant.

After the fiasco at Guandu, Yuan Shao returned to Yecheng, his base, and died suddenly not long after.

His death was so sudden that he didn't even have an heir.

Yuan Tan always hated the counselors around Yuan Shao who were appointed and judged.

They were afraid that after Yuan Tan inherited the great cause, he would clean himself up.

So the two of them forged Yuan Shao's will and supported Yuan Shang as the heir.

Yuan Tan, who was far away in Qingzhou, had no time to stop him, and could only watch his younger brother succeed to the throne.

Angry, he directly led an army of tens of thousands, stationed in Liyang, and confronted Yuan Shang.

If it wasn't for the fact that Hua Xiong was watching from the south, the two brothers might have started fighting long ago!

"I see, Mr. Hardworking."

Yuan Tan said a few words of comfort, but the disappointment on his face could not be concealed.

He was not reconciled, so he handed over the position of the Lord of Jizhou to his younger brother.

It's just that Yuan Shang inherited most of Yuan Shao's power, with strong troops and powerful horses.

With only 5 people in his hands, he is far from his younger brother's opponent.

Therefore, Yuan Tan wanted to develop his own power.

It's just that in order to guard against Yuan Tan, Yuan Shang refused to distribute even arms and food, let alone a single soldier.

Although Yuan Tan occupies most of Qingzhou, it is not easy to support the consumption of 5 horses.

It is simply too difficult to expand the army in addition.

No, Yuan Tan asked Xin Ping to find a way to get some iron materials to make ordnance, but he couldn't find any.

No wonder he was so disappointed.

And at this moment, another literati walked in quickly from the outside, it was Guo Tu.

"My lord, good news!"

After the fiasco at Guandu, Guo Tu and Shen Pei blamed each other, and eventually turned against each other.

Therefore, after knowing the trial match and Fengji surrounded Yuan Shang to ascend the throne, Guo Tu took Xin Ping to join Yuan Tan.

"What good news?"

Yuan Tan asked quickly.

"I contacted some private salt dealers, and they have a way to get iron materials."

Guo Tu lowered his voice.

Hearing this, Yuan Tan and Xin Ping's eyes lit up.

"Where are they? Quickly recommend them to me."

Yuan Tan urged.

But Guo Tu shook his head,

"They refused to come to see the lord, they just asked the lord to meet outside the city."

"This group of private salt dealers, if it is normal, they must be beheaded!"

Xin Ping said angrily.

But Yuan Tan didn't care about that much, let alone a private salt dealer, even if the other party was a gangster, as long as he could provide iron materials, he would be willing to meet him.

"Let's get together and let's go."

Yuan Tan ordered.

After a while, a group of cavalry roared out from Liyang City.

According to the location provided by Guo Tu, Yuan Tan led his troops to a fork in the road.

There used to be a tea shop here, but because of the war, it has been abandoned now.

And at the door of the tea shop, there are more than a dozen tall horses tied up.

"My lord, beware of fraud."

General Peng An said in a low voice.

Yuan Tan also saw that something was wrong.

These dozens of war horses are fat and strong, with a vigorous posture, and they look like gods at first glance.

How could an ordinary private salt dealer afford such a good horse?

But the matter has come to this point, if he goes back, he will probably lose to his younger brother sooner or later.

So Yuan Tan gritted his teeth and said in a low voice,

"Be careful."

Before Yuan Tan and the others entered the tea shop, a deep laughing voice came from inside.

"Nephew Yuan Tan, please stay safe."

A tall and mighty figure slowly stepped out, it was Hua Xiong.

Following behind him were Zhou Cang, Wei Yan and several other guards.

"Hua... Hua... Xiong!"

Yuan Tan's eyes widened in disbelief.

He never imagined that Hua Xiong would appear in front of him with only a dozen followers.

The generals and guards behind him were also shocked when they heard Hua Xiong's name.

But after being surprised, they quickly took out the long swords around their waists and surrounded Hua Xiong and his party.

Not to be outdone, Zhou Cang and others raised their weapons, and the two sides stalemate.

Hua Xiong didn't seem to see the shining weapons around him, he said with a smile,

"Nephew Yuan Tan, is this how you treat guests?"

Yuan Tan sneered,

"Hua Xiong, what kind of guest are you, a thief?

Wait until I catch you, and then take care of you! "

"Just relying on these stinky fish and rotten shrimps around you, you want to deal with me?"

Hua Xiong smiled contemptuously.

Yuan Tan was shocked.

That's right, this Hua Xiong is extremely brave, if he wants to rely on the hundreds of guards around him, he may not be able to take him down.

Thinking of this, he slowly stepped back, sneered,

"Don't worry, I will mobilize the army after I go back, and I will let you die here today!"

"Even if I die here, what will you do?" Hua Xiong asked back, "Do you submit to your younger brother Yuan Shang, or are you defeated and captured?"

His words, like a immobilization talisman, made Yuan Tan's figure freeze in place.

Hua Xiong smiled lightly when he saw this, and said to himself,

"No matter which way you do it, I'm afraid you will die in his hands in the end, right?"

Yuan Tan's face was uncertain.

Hua Xiong's words can be said to hit his most worrying thing at present.

"My lord, this Hua Xiong is talking nonsense, kill him first."

Peng An snorted softly.

"No, my lord." Guo Tu hastily stopped him, "Since he dares to take the risk of appearing here, why not let him finish his sentence."

Yuan Tan nodded in agreement, and then said loudly,

"Hua Xiong, what exactly do you want to say?"

"Nephew Yuan Tan is also a straightforward person, since that's the case, then I will open the skylight and speak frankly.

I will provide you with food, grass and weapons, and you and I will join forces to kill your brother Yuan Shang, what do you think? "

Yuan Tan's heart skipped a beat.

The conditions offered by Hua Xiong can be said to be extremely generous.

"Then what benefits do you want?"

Yuan Tan said in a deep voice.

He is not a fool, so he naturally knows that Hua Xiong cannot benefit himself for nothing.

"It's very simple, you surrender to me, and I will make you the governor of Jizhou."

Hua Xiong smiled lightly.

Yuan Tan fell into deep thought.

Now that I am in a predicament, if I continue with this momentum, it will not be long before I am afraid that I will either choose to surrender to Yuan Shang or lose the battle as Hua Xiong said.
