North of Jiangxia, the entrance to the valley.

At dusk, the sound of fighting came faintly, Cao Ren still maintained his nervousness, turned over and ordered the entire army to "arrange the formation and welcome the enemy!"

From a distance, I saw a group of soldiers from the tiger and leopard cavalry fleeing. They had no horses, even their armor and weapons were discarded. They ran away in panic like a stray dog, running towards this side in a mess.

There is nowhere left, the once arrogant tiger and leopard riding look!

And behind it is a pursuer brought by the three brothers Guan Ping, Guan Xing and Guan Suo.

Niu Jin shouted to the archer: "Cover, shoot!"

The archers fired one after another, blocking a round of pursuers. The neat array cracked a crossroads, allowing the miserable remaining soldiers to rush into the rear army.

Guan Ping saw Cao's army's well-behaved array from afar, and he immediately issued an order, "Stop chasing!"

Guan Xing was puzzled: "Brother?"

Guan Ping calmly explained: "The fourth brother said that if you attack the enemy in the valley this time, you will definitely win. Once you leave the valley, life and death are uncertain. Therefore, the fourth brother wants me to lose the enemy and not pursue it! At least now, this

Zhu, I still have to obey my fourth brother's words!"

"Besides... looking at the military formation, it feels like Cao Ren has set up the "Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation". They are ready to fight with ease and are willing to attack rashly, and our army has no chance of winning!"

Guan Ping made a rational analysis.

Guan Xing no longer questioned.

Guan Suo opened his mouth. In fact... he wanted to say that Cao Ren, who was sent by Cao Cao to guard Xiangfan, really had the heart to see his half-brother...the entire army was wiped out.

But Guan Suo swallowed this sentence back.

He remembered...a series of stories that his fourth brother Guan Lin once told him.

——Yuan Shao, the Yuan Shu brothers were killed;

——Yuan Shao’s son Yuan Tan, and the Yuan Shang brothers were killed;

——Liu Biao’s son Liu Qi and Liu Cong’s brothers are slaughtering each other…

So, isn’t Cao Ren and Cao Chun the same? How could Cao Ren take the risk of saving his “legitimate son” brother?

Thinking of this, Guan Suo swallowed gently with a "gulp" sound, and he raised his eyes to look at the blue sky.

He recalled...

That was after the fourth brother Guan Lin disobeyed his father again and again.

Guan Suo couldn't help but look for him to ask.

"The fourth brother knows that he will anger his father, so why should he do this? Why should he make his father hate you? What's the benefit of this?"

In Guan Suo's puzzled gaze, Guan Lin said meaningfully: "Fifth brother, you are simple in your heart... I don't know these!"

“From ancient times, many examples have shown an extremely cruel reality, that is, as younger sons or concubines, if they are too fond of their father, they will often lead to discord between brothers and tragedy… and become the family’s victory and decline.

Turn!”

At that time, Guan Lin's tone became heavier.

"For example, how did Yuan's family in Runan become prosperous and decline? Isn't it because Yuan Feng wanted to give the legitimate son and the concubine's son a bowl of water? He first adopted Yuan Shao to his brother, removed Yuan Shao's identity as the concubine's son, and then helped him

In the disaster of the Party and the corruption, he established a "Friends Running" to help the Party, which won the popularity of people and made a large number of heroes join Yuan Shao!"

"But what about Yuan Shu? As the legitimate son, he looked at a humble concubine's son who was now soaring. It was like a wolf that originally made a living by eating sheep. Suddenly one day, it was ridden on the neck by the sheep and peed? How can he calm down in his heart?

?So how can you not be envious or jealous? And this envy and jealousy will eventually turn into a 'hate' meaning!"

"Yuan Shu once openly mentioned, 'I don't follow the crowd, but I will follow my slaves!', he regarded Yuan Shao as the most humble slave of the Yuan family. He also wrote to Gongsun Zan, saying that Yuan Shao was not from the Yuan family.

Even after the alliance to fight against Dong broke up, they faced Yuan Shao in a tit-for-tat way and attacked each other!”

Since this topic was mentioned, Guan Lin also specifically told his fifth brother Guan Suo.

The Central Plains, which once competed with heroes.

Don’t look at the lively fight, after all, there are only two camps!

It's just a contradiction.

One is the "First Son of the Yuan Family" alliance led by Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Biao.

One is the "Yuan Family's eldest son" alliance led by Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zan and Tao Qian.

Liu Bei and Lu Bu are quite special and jump repeatedly between these two camps.

After all...

Because of the four generations and three ministers, worldly officials are everywhere.

Because of the Party and the corruption disaster, the party members were secretly rescued. The huge amount of reputation the Yuan family accumulated at the beginning of this chaotic world was the beginning of Tianhu and the reliance of the Yuan family to be the emperor.

This caused that even if the heroes competed, the princes would still follow the leader of the "Yuan Family".

Further deductions are made according to the timeline.

First, the Yuan Shao alliance defeated the Yuan Shu alliance, and Cao Cao, Liu Biao and Liu Bei got a share of the pie;

Then the outside enemies are gone, leaving only the inside.

It's equivalent to entering the "finals circle".

Yuan Shao was first eliminated by Cao Cao, and Liu Biao was eliminated by Cao Cao.

At this point, the only one in the entire Central Plains, Cao Cao is left in the final circle!

So who else can be defeated by Cao Cao in the Central Plains?

But tracing the origin, the source of all this was caused by the incompatibility of the Yuan family!

Just imagine, whenever Yuan Feng was just doing his best, he would directly support his legitimate son Yuan Shu, completely put Yuan Shao aside, or simply be decisive and support Yuan Shao and let Yuan Shu get out.

In this way, in this chaotic world, the Yuan family formed a joint force, so where were there any other princes?

——Can Cao Cao get up?

That day, Guan Lin said a lot. He first told the story of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu brothers fighting each other, followed by Yuan Tan, Yuan Shang, and then Liu Qi and Liu Cong...

Guan Suo was dumbfounded when he heard it.

Suddenly, he could understand why the fourth brother always disobeyed his father.

The fourth brother is because of this family!

It is also for the sake of this family's good.

At that time, Guan Suo felt that he was too simple, and the fourth brother and him... As the fourth son and fifth son of the Guan family, they should not have been too sharp.

That is at that time, Guan Suo made up his mind not to work so hard anymore, and he could put more time to work hard... elsewhere.

For example - woman!

And this idea suddenly opened the door to a new world for Guan Suo!

At this moment, Guan Suo pulled his thoughts back from the distance, looked at the Cao Ren's soldiers who were waiting for battle in front of him, and sighed.

"Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu is like this!"

"Yuan Tan, Yuan Shang is like this!"

"Liu Qi, Liu Cong is like this..."

"Cao Ren, Cao Chun, the brothers? How can they be friendly and respectful?"

At this time, the Guan family army stopped pursuing, and Guan Ping slowly stepped forward and looked at Cao Ren in the "Eight Gate Locking Formation".

He shouted, "I don't want to, this time it alarmed General Cao!"

Cao Ren also replied loudly: "This time, it was my Cao Zixiao who lost his wisdom and fell into Guan Yunchang's trick. I admit defeat!"

"Didn't General Cao come to get the armour? There are many armours in this Sunset Valley, including side vans, wooden ox and flowing horses, crossbows, and your Cao army's armor, weapons, and war horses. They are placed in the valley. General Cao releases the horses.

Take it?"

Guan Ping's words made Cao Ren grit his teeth.

As Guan Suo thought just now, he really didn't care whether his younger brother Cao Chun was dead or alive...

Can tiger and leopard rider...

In particular, the army and war horses of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were all built with a lot of money, which made Cao Ren feel extremely distressed.

This time, Guan Ping's words were like sprinkling salt on his wounds.

However, Cao Ren's expression was calm, "My Cao Wei family is a big business, and I can afford to give it to General Guan, so I will give it to General Guan. Please treat it as a gift for the meeting! However, this general is curious. Since Mr. Guan Ping has chased him here, why can he not come here?

ah?"

Guan Ping laughed "haha" and didn't he know that the other party was provoking?

Guan Ping shouted loudly: "As a human being, how can you never get tired of it? You have already received so many gifts from General Cao, so you can't chew too much! But General Cao, don't worry, sooner or later, this general will break it.

Your formation!"

"Haha!" Cao Ren laughed loudly, "Now, do the juniors of the Han army dare to speak to me like this? Haha, okay, I am waiting for that day!"

As Cao Ren's voice came out.

"--There is ample time."

Guan Ping replied, and then he showed his decisive side as a general and immediately raised his hand.
