Xuzhou is connected to Yanzhou, and after Cao Cao broke the Qingzhou Yellow Turban and possessed Yanzhou, he had as many as 170,000 troops and was powerful. Xuzhou Mu Taoqian was worried that Cao Cao would peep at Xuzhou, so he intended to befriend Cao Cao, so he took the initiative to send troops to escort Cao Cao's father Cao Song back to Yanzhou.

It's a pity that he doesn't know anyone, and the general he sent is named Zhang Min, who was recruited by him a few years ago, and the thief has not been eliminated, escorting Cao Cao's father Cao Song back to Yanzhou on the way, he coveted dozens of truckloads and heavy property carried by Cao Song, so he killed Cao Song and dozens of other people.

Cao Cao suddenly heard of the tragic death of his father Cao Song in Yanzhou, and wept bitterly for three days, showing his grief.

"Tao Qian, you set up troops to kill my father, I swear not to stand with you, and I will wash Xuzhou in blood to comfort my father's soul in the sky!" Cao Cao roared murderously.

Compared with Cao Cao's murderous spirit, Xuzhou Tao Qian was trembling.

Although Xuzhou is also a state, with six counties, and is quite wealthy, Tao Qian did nothing, that is, there were not many soldiers and horses, and there was no good general, so it was impossible for Cao Cao to be the opponent of Cao Cao's army of more than 100,000 troops.

"I'm in danger in Xuzhou!" Tao Qian panicked and grieved, at a loss.

Lu Zhu was Tao Qian's advisor, and he said to Tao Qian: "My lord, it is a top priority, grief is meaningless, you should try your best to keep Xuzhou, and you can immediately send people to ask for help from other princes." ”

Tao Qian woke up like a dream: "Yes, ask for help from other princes and let them help me resist Cao Cao." ”

Tao Qian's distress letter was quickly sent, and on the Yanzhou side, Cao Cao also wrote to other princes, and even the nominal court in Chang'an City, stating that he had a father's revenge with Tao Qian, and Tao Qian would take revenge on his father, and whoever dared to help Tao Qian would be his Cao Cao's enemy, and he Cao Cao would fight with him endlessly!

……

Youzhou.

Gongsun Zhan is far away from Xuzhou, even if he helps Tao Qian, he can't get any benefits, but offends Cao Cao, who is getting more and more powerful, and it's not worth it, so he chooses not to help.

Nanyang.

Yuan Shu didn't care about himself, and he didn't mean to help.

Jizhou.

However, Yuan Shao relieved himself a little and said that he could send troops to help. However, Tao Qian's envoy did not have time to be happy, but saw that Yuan Shao continued to put forward a condition, that is, Tao Qian first ceded the land of the three northern counties of Xuzhou to him, and then he would send troops.

This is simply a white wolf with empty gloves, who knows if Yuan Shao will keep his promise after taking the three counties of Xuzhou, or instead of luring the tiger to drive the wolf, and waiting for Cao Cao to be driven away, Yuan Shao swallowed Xuzhou himself.

Obviously, Yuan Shao is hopeless here.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that Liu Bei, who had been following Gongsun Zhan's account, thought about it, and after fooling Gongsun Zhan's 2,000 soldiers and horses, he took these soldiers and horses and Zhang Fei all the way south, and finally took the opportunity to leave Gongsun Zhan to create his own business.

In Hanzhong County, Liu Yu also received letters from Tao Qian and Cao Cao, but Liu Yu also had no intention of interfering, and he also had the mentality of watching a play.

"A magnificent drama is about to begin." Liu Yu said with a smile.

The battle of Xuzhou can be described as full of twists and turns, Tao Qian, Cao Cao, Lu Bu, Liu Bei and others have been involved. Especially Liu Bei, Tao Qiansan let Xuzhou, so that Liu Bei suddenly became the pastor of Xuzhou, sitting on the land of one state and six counties.

I didn't expect this, Liu Yu didn't feel so 'sad', the historical protagonist is worthy of being the historical protagonist, Yuan Shaobai got Jizhou, Cao Cao got Yanzhou, Liu Bei got Xuzhou, even Sun Jian picked up the jade seal of the country in vain, but he Liu Yu didn't get anything in vain, he had to fight step by step!

Tao Qian is weak and unreasonable, while Cao Cao is strong and occupies the moral high ground of avenging his father, the choice of the princes is self-evident, and none of them are willing to offend Cao Cao to help Tao Qian.

In the autumn of the third year of the first peace, Cao Cao only left 30,000 troops to guard Yanzhou, raised 140,000 troops, and took Xiahoudun as the vanguard and viciously wanted to kill Xuzhou.

As if in order to show how much hatred he has in his heart, Cao Jun's pass, but where the city is broken and slaughtered, in less than ten days, three counties have been slaughtered, and tens of thousands of innocent people have been killed.

Tao Qian has always ruled the people with benevolence and virtue, and when he heard that Cao Cao actually slaughtered the innocent people of Xuzhou, he couldn't help but grieve.

Tao Qian said in despair: "Cao's army is strong, the princes don't save it, and I can't defeat him with my own strength." I should go to Cao Ying by myself, and let Cao Cao cut off his anger, as long as I can save the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Xuzhou. ”

The strategist Lu Zhu was shocked: "The prince of the palace can't!" ”

Lu Zhu said: "Xuzhou, the town of Fujun Jiu, governs the people with benevolence and virtue, and the people are grateful." Although the Cao soldiers are strong today, but the city of Xuzhou is still there, the government and the people work together, stick to not out, Lu Zhu is not talented, willing to risk death out of the city, go to Beihai County to ask Taizong Kong Rong to send troops to rescue. ”

Tao Qian's spirits perked up, and he asked: "You need to go quickly, if it is too late, I am afraid that the city of Xuzhou will be broken." ”

Lu Zhu left the city overnight and rushed to Beihai County.

……

It is said that Chen Gong passed by Xuzhou and heard that Cao Cao killed innocent people in Xuzhou in order to avenge his father, but he didn't want to believe it, but he witnessed a scene where Cao soldiers wantonly slashed and killed the people after breaking the city.

"Cao Cao, I'm ***" Chen Gong scolded, and came to Cao Ying in anger and starry night, please see Cao Cao.

Cao Cao guessed that Chen Gong must have interceded for Tao Qian, and he didn't want to see Chen Gong, but thinking of his old kindness back then, if it weren't for Chen Gong, he would have been captured and killed by Dong Zhuo, so he had to ask Chen Gong to come in and meet him.

Chen Gong questioned Cao Cao: "In order to avenge your father, you have invaded Xuzhou, but why did you kill innocent people indiscriminately, causing the world to be shocked." Thinking that Tao Qian is a benevolent and righteous gentleman, not a person who forgets righteousness, and the murder of his father is the evil of Zhang Min, not the sin of Tao Qian. And the innocent people of the state and county, what enmity do they have with Ming Gong? Why don't you withdraw from the army, urge Tao Qian to capture and kill Zhang Min, offer the head of Min, and pay tribute to his father, no? ”

Retirement?

Will Cao Cao withdraw from the army, of course it is impossible, not to mention that Zhang Min is Tao Qian's unknown acquaintance, and he has nothing to do with Tao Qian, so he said that he is bound to win the six counties of Xuzhou, and he will find an excuse to attack Xuzhou without this matter.

Cao Cao said angrily: "Gong abandoned me in the past, how can I see him again?" Tao Qian killed my family, and vowed to pluck out his heart and hate him with snow! I don't have to lobby for Tao Qian anymore, and I won't listen anymore! ”

Chen Gong also pointed at Cao Cao angrily: "Cao Mengde, I think your revenge on your father is fake, and it is true to take the opportunity to seize Xuzhou!" ”

Cao Cao snorted coldly and said: "It is true to take revenge on my father, and it is also true to seize Xuzhou, how is the public treated?" ”

"You ......" Chen Gong gritted his teeth angrily, took a deep breath, and he turned to say, "Then you can't kill an innocent person indiscriminately." ”

Cao Cao sneered: "What kind of face can the public persuade me? ”

Chen Gong was already trembling with anger, and he couldn't say a word for a long time, and finally said angrily: "How is it different from a beast if it is so unrighteous? ”

This time, Cao Cao didn't even bother to talk back.

Chen Gong had no choice but to leave Cao Ying.

Outside Cao's camp, when Chen Gong was leaving, he didn't even want Sven, and pointed to the big tent of the Chinese army in the camp and scolded: "Cao Cao, I'm grass***, blame me for not saving you in the past, your sins, half of me, I won't let you continue to do evil!" ”

In fact, as early as when Cao Cao killed Lu Bohao's family, and said that he would rather teach me to bear the world, not teach the world to bear me, Chen Gong regretted saving Cao Cao, he intuitively felt that Cao Cao was an unkind and unrighteous person, if Cao Cao was allowed to gain power, the people would definitely suffer, and now it has finally been verified that Cao Cao is an unkind and unrighteous person, and it was he who personally rescued this demon back then, so he must find a way to end all this.

Chen Gong went straight to Chen Liutai's place to guard Zhang Miao, this time, Lu Bu and Lu Fengxian were about to take the stage, opening Lu Bu's most proud days.
