"What? Tao Qian is also here! ”

Yuan Shao temporarily detained Cao Cao in Bohai on the grounds of discussing the new emperor as emperor, but Cao Cao did not expect that Tao Qian also came from Xuzhou. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Not only that, when he saw Cao Cao, Tao Qian's eyes turned red, and two lines of old tears suddenly flowed down the old cheeks.

Under Feng Ji's surprised gaze, Tao Qian's knees weakened, and he actually knelt down from Cao Cao.

"Tao Gong, Tao Gong, why are you doing this? Hurry up, please. Feng Ji hurriedly reached out to Tao Qian.

In fact, Tao Qian's approach, Feng Ji also knows very well, although Cao Cao is not in Xuzhou, but the 50,000 troops are like wolves and tigers in Xuzhou, with Xuzhou's current troops, even if Cao Cao is not in Xuzhou, the situation is still unfavorable to Tao Qian.

Tao Qian was on the road early in the morning, and Yuan Shao sent an invitation to discuss Liu Yu's claim to be the emperor, Tao Qian was impressively listed, and second, I heard that Cao Cao was in the Bohai Sea, Tao Qian also wanted to make peace with Cao Cao in person, hoping that the two families could strike and make peace.

Frankly speaking, Tao Qian doesn't know much about the current situation in Xuzhou, Cao Cao and him, almost one after the other, and their understanding of the situation in Xuzhou is stuck in the beginning of the situation.

Xiahoudun continued to send troops, and took Langya County, and washed a lot of towns in blood, these Cao Cao didn't know, Lu Zhuo took people to ask Guan Hai, Chen Deng sent troops to cut off Cao's retreat, Tao Qian didn't understand.

Tao Qian has always had a weak temperament, and he is not optimistic about the situation in Xuzhou, even if he forms an alliance with Yuan Shao, as long as Cao Cao's 50,000 army does not leave for a day, he will sleep restlessly.

"Mengde, I hope you will open the net and stop killing again..."

Tao Qian choked up and cried, a handful of snot, a handful of tears, and pitifully knelt on the ground begging for mercy.

Feng Ji shook his head gently, although it is not difficult to see that Tao Qian is kind-hearted and does not want innocent people to suffer, but this words and deeds are really a loss of prestige, fighting for hegemony in troubled times, such a cowardly performance, so that Feng Ji is extremely disdainful, emotionally, he prefers to stand on Cao Cao's side.

However, out of reason, Feng Ji had to stand on Tao Qian's side.

Because, Yuan Shao is also on Tao Qian's side, whether it is detaining Cao Cao or increasing troops to the border of Yanzhou, every move, Yuan Shao is not only to force Cao Cao to 'submit', but also to deliberately make an appearance for Tao Qian.

Let Tao Qian know that Yuan Shao and him are allies with a solid relationship, and Yuan Shao will unswervingly stand on Tao Qian's side.

"Hmph..."

Cao Cao glanced at Tao Qian disdainfully, and snorted heavily: "The enmity of my parents is not shared, Tao Qian's old man put away your hateful posture, I will never retreat." ”

"Ahem...... Cao Gong, why do you have to work so hard..."Feng Ji coughed deliberately, although what he said was insignificant, but the implication was to let Cao Cao understand that Tao Qian was not alone, if you didn't agree to support Liu Yu, then my Bohai would not just send troops to deter.

"Hmph..."

Cao Cao flicked his sleeves and turned his body to the side angrily.

Feng Ji also saw that although Cao Cao was detained in Bohai, he still had his confidence and did not panic, otherwise, he would not have been so tough.

Feng Ji helped Tao Qian up from the ground and hurriedly led him to see Yuan Shao, as soon as they met, Yuan Shao hurriedly asked, "Yuan Tu, Gongzu, how is it?" Cao Cao is a little loose? ”

Tao Qian was still very excited, sobbing constantly, and couldn't stop blaming himself, "The old man is incompetent, and he has harmed the people of Xuzhou..."

Feng Ji shook his head, had to persuade him, let Tao Qian go down to rest first, and after only he and Yuan Shao were left in the room, Feng Ji sighed, "Lord, Cao Cao is very cunning, he has no fear now, although others are here, but the situation in Xuzhou is under his control, he has the absolute upper hand, and naturally he will not panic, as for what we do, he seems to have guessed that we will not really send troops to attack Yanzhou." ”

Yuan Shao sighed, "In this way, this is difficult, since Cao Cao has no fear, it will be difficult to be coerced by us, and he will bow his head and give in." ”

Feng Ji barely squeezed out a wry smile on his face, "Yes, what the lord said is very true, persuade Liu Yu to be the emperor, at that time, once the troops are dispatched, it will inevitably be true, and when the time comes, it will be difficult to explain clearly, but if it drags on like this, it will be difficult for things to take a turn for the better, unless..."

"Unless what?"

Yuan Shao's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly grabbed Feng Ji's hand and asked.

"Unless the situation in Xuzhou changes!"

After Yuan Shao heard this, he was immediately deflated, "It's difficult, it's not easy to talk about!" ”

Even if Cao Cao is not there, no one is optimistic that Xuzhou will be able to turn the situation around.

I thought that if Cao Cao was left in the Bohai Sea, Cao Cao would be panicked if he was slightly frightened, but as a result, Cao Cao was as stable as Mount Tai, which made Yuan Shao not know how to end.

Feng Ji's analysis hit the nail on the head, precisely because Yuan Shao wanted Liu Yu to be the emperor, Cao Cao concluded that he did not dare to send troops to Yanzhou, once the troops were sent, Yuan Shao's unintended motives would be exposed, even if Cao Cao was willing to agree, people with discerning eyes also knew that Cao Cao was forced.

Yuan Shao wanted to get this matter done safely, and if he could not move a knife or a soldier, then everyone would naturally be happy.

Once the matter is completed, after that, even if Cao Cao says that he is detained in the Bohai Sea, it will be difficult for everyone to believe it.

What's more, Cao Cao didn't bother to talk to someone about such a trivial matter.

However, once Yuan Shao really sent troops, without Cao Cao's explanation, he would not want to escape the eyes of the world.

In fact, Cao Cao was also a little relieved in his heart, but in front of Feng Ji and others, Cao Cao hid this negative emotion that was unfavorable to him very well.

Every day of delay is full of unknown risks, and although Cao Cao is optimistic, he is not blind.

The next day, the news came, Xiahoudun continued to send troops, and successfully took Langya County, Cao Cao let out a sigh of relief, and couldn't help laughing: "Yuan let me know!" ”

If Xiahoudun did not move, although Cao Cao would still take the initiative, the advantage was not obvious, and he could not continue to put pressure on Yuan Shao and Tao Qian.

If Xiahoudun continues to send troops, Yuan Shao and Tao Qian will panic, and Yuan Shao will be even more helpless against Cao Cao.

Beat? Yuan Shao didn't dare, if he didn't fight, Cao's troops would continue to encroach on the city of Xuzhou, once Xuzhou was brought over, and by that time, Yuan Shao's farce would be completely unable to end.

Because, Tao Qian was his ally, and Yuan Shao could only watch Xuzhou being annexed by Cao Cao.

As for letting Liu Yu be the emperor, after taking Xuzhou, Cao Cao doesn't need to look at Yuan Shao's face, even if he doesn't agree, Yuan Shao will obediently let him go.

Because, the law of survival in troubled times is that the law of the jungle eats the strong, and when the time comes, it will be Cao Cao who has the final say, occupying Yanzhou and Xuzhou, and Yuan Shao is nothing in his eyes.
