Chapter 482: Cao Cao sent troops to Xuzhou
It is estimated that going back to pay the business is looking for death, so it is better to take the money and disappear to be chic, looking at the yellow and white things all over the ground.
Two hundred riders did not hesitate.
This almost does not need to use your brain to make a choice, being a soldier is to eat food, and if you have money, you can be a fart soldier.
So Zhang Min and a group of riders dismounted and collected all the valuable belongings of the Cao family, and then ran straight to the southwest.
Witnessing all this, but not daring to lean forward to listen, Cao De, who knew nothing about it, was heartbroken, almost crazy, and waited for Zhang Min and the others to leave far away, so he dared to come out, hugging Cao Song's corpse and crying bitterly.
After crying, Cao De carried Cao Song's corpse on his back and staggered towards Yanzhou.
As soon as he entered Yanzhou, Cao De cleverly found the county government and reported Cao Cao's name.
In the end, he is a child of a family and knows how to find a way.
After checking his identity card, he immediately sent someone to send the letter to Cao Cao, and at the same time ordered someone to buy a coffin and collect Cao Song's body, and then sent someone to escort him to Juancheng.
In a few days!
"What?!"
When Cao Cao received the letter, he was still discussing things with the civil and military forces, and now that the autumn grain has been harvested, there is food in his heart, and Lao Cao wants to do things in his heart, so he invited everyone to discuss whether he can send troops to expand south.
Unexpectedly, I received the news of Cao Song's murder.
Cao Cao was stunned for a while, and then began to cry with a sad face.
A group of civil and military officers were also dumbfounded, what news made Cao Cao, who had always been strong and confident, cry bitterly, and he had no scruples.
Cheng Shu stepped forward, picked up the letter paper that fell on the ground, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he immediately closed his eyes and persuaded: "The Lord mourns!" ”
Then Cheng Shu handed the letter to Chen Gong, and Chen Gong's face changed after reading it, and he gave it to others.
When everyone saw it, they all showed sadness and anger, and also persuaded: "The Lord mourns! ”
Cao Cao cried bitterly for a long time, and the inside and outside of the house had already changed into solemn white, at this time Cao Cao said with red eyes: "Someone!" Send troops to Xuzhou, I want to kill Tao Qian to comfort my father......"
"We are willing to avenge the Lord!" A group of generals said impassionedly.
I was still thinking about who to fight just now, so I don't have to choose now, just do Tao Qian!
There is no more appropriate reason than this.
Cheng Shu and Chen Gong wanted to persuade him, but when the words came to his lips, they looked at Cao Cao, who was about to kill, and finally swallowed the words.
When going out to fight, the mobilization of soldiers and horses is not a matter of one day, and the heralds went out of Juancheng one after another to convey news to various states and counties, and gather troops to recruit generals.
Two days later, Cao Cao saw Cao Song who was encased in the coffin, and Haohao cried again, but this time there were many children of the Cao family and the close family of the Xiahou family who accompanied him.
After entering the city, Cao Cao called Cao De over and asked, "Is it really the Xuzhou soldiers and horses who killed you?" ”
It's not that Cao Cao doesn't believe in Cao De's own brother, but that he is a little confused about what he said in his letter.
Cao Dedao: "Big brother, I saw with my own eyes, one of Tao Qian's captains led the cavalry department to chase and kill me, but fortunately, I escaped by luck, so that I could come back to report the news, then the Xuzhou soldiers not only killed my father, but also robbed all the money." ”
After saying that, Cao De seemed to think of something again, and added: "By the way, this is the crossbow arrow that attacked us, and when I went back to find my father's body, I found a discarded damaged crossbow machine!" This crossbow is so peculiar that it has a deep groove ......"
When Cao Cao heard this, his eyes shot with infinite killing intent.
Two hundred rides!
Very well, to deal with his dying old father, he actually dispatched two hundred horsemen.
also brought a crossbow, this is for fear of not being able to kill.
Cao Cao could even make up the miserable appearance of countless crossbow arrows in Cao Song's body falling in a pool of blood.
"Wait! You just said that the crossbow machine has a deep groove? Cao Cao suddenly became a little suspicious, and Cao De described the crossbow in detail.
Cao Cao pinched off a beard, especially unconsciously.
Because according to Cao De's description, this crossbow machine seems to be a repeater crossbow equipped by the Donglai army.
He had seen Xu Ding's repeating crossbows, and almost every one of the left cavalry guards hung on horseback, carrying a hundred crossbow arrows.
Thousands of crossbows can be shot in an instant, like thousands of arrows head-on, making people unable to hide, and it is one of the most courageous troops in Xu Ding.
He was not less envious, but this thing could only be envious, because Xu Ding never sold this crossbow to the outside world.
But now a damaged repeater has appeared at the scene of the crime.
Could it be that Xu Ding sold it to Tao Qian.
But Cao Cao quickly denied it.
Because he felt that he was closer to Xu Ding, even if Xu Ding was allied with Tao Qian, Xu Ding would not sell the crossbow to Tao Qian.
Because he wants to protect a sheep, how can he sell the equipment to protect the sheep?
But if it wasn't under Tao Qian's riding tribe, who would it be.
At the junction of the three counties, to the north is Taishan County, and Bokang will definitely not do such a dirty thing.
But who else could he have?
Cao Cao's suspicious personality was undoubtedly revealed at this time, and he had been paying attention to his own brother, to see if he was lying or something.
It's just that in the end he was disappointed, and Cao De didn't have any flaws.
"Okay, don't mention this to outsiders!" Cao Cao finally instructed.
Cao De was puzzled, but he still nodded and replied softly.
He did a ritual for Cao Song, built a sacrificial hall, and three days later Cao Cao led his troops to fight Tao Qian.
The banner was naturally to avenge his father, and all the blame was put on Tao Qian, and the army was mighty to kill the past.
After hearing that Cao Song was attacked, Tao Qian became anxious, like an ant on a hot pot, and he was restless all day.
And the subordinate sent out, Lieutenant Zhang Min, was also nowhere to be seen.
Now he knew something bad was coming.
Hurriedly called for Elk.
"Zizhong, what do you say about this? Cao Song had an accident in my Xuzhou, Cao Cao will not give up, I am afraid that he will raise troops to attack. Cao Song's death made Tao Qian naturally less confident.
Everything pays attention to a famous teacher.
Yuan Shu came to attack Xuzhou, obviously because he was a man of his own words and wanted to add to the crime.
Now Cao Cao is attacking, and the name is justified.
Tao Qian was inexplicably a little square.
Lu Zhu thought for a while and said: "The lord Cao Cao is a traitor in the world, this person is ambitious, and now that he has won Yanzhou, he needs to expand outward, and this matter just gives him an excuse."
He will lead the troops to attack, we must transfer troops to defend the city, and second, I want to ask Weihai Hou to help me Xuzhou again, don't let Xuzhou regenerate disasters and miser the people! ”
Needless to say, he just invited Xu Ding again, but it made him hesitate: "Zizhong, Bo Kang and Cao Mengde have always been good friends, and this time it is Cao Mengde who is in charge, I am afraid that Bo Kang will be embarrassed and unwilling to help." ”
Others say that as long as they come to fight Xuzhou, Xu Ding should help as an ally.
Now that he and Cao Cao are friends and half of the alliance, and he is also an ally on his side, he will have doubts about whether he will come to Tao Qian.
Lu Zhu said: "Don't worry, the lord of Weihai Hou will definitely come, not to mention that there is an alliance between us, and that there are many doubts about Cao Song's death, and the murder scene has the crossbow of the Donglai Army left, and indirectly pointed the murderer at Weihai Hou."
This is someone deliberately pouring dirty water on my Xuzhou and Qingzhou in order to provoke the relationship between our three parties.
With the character of Weihaihou, he will definitely come to Xuzhou, and he will definitely not let the real murderer go unpunished. ”
In fact, Lu Zhu knew that Cao Song's matter was definitely not done by Tao Qian and Xu Ding.
So he is very sure, he believes that with Xu Ding's calm and wise wisdom and the most convincing analytical and logical method, he will definitely be able to guess who did it.
"Hey! I can only do this, I hope Bokang will come over soon, but the people of Xuzhou are about to suffer from that unwarranted disaster again, but I am Tao Qian incompetent! Tao Qian covered his face with compassion and sobbed, and Lu Zhu had no choice but to be appeased.
