Cao Shuo sat by the bonfire, and Zhao Yun and others sat around him.

Sima Yi came with Liu Shuang.

Saluting to Cao Shuo, Liu Shuang greeted: "I've seen Gongzi." ”

"Why are you here?" Turning around and grinning at Liu Shuang, Cao Shuo asked.

"Hui Gongzi." Liu Shuang said: "Several ladies were not worried about the son, and ordered that except for the newly recruited Huo Wu, everyone else came to Hebei. ”

"The ladies didn't come, did they?" Cao Shuo asked.

"They didn't come." Liu Shuang said: "Mrs. Guo knew that Gongzi would definitely not agree to them coming, so she only sent Huo Wu for us to wait for Gongzi to dispatch." ”

"Sit down!" Cao Shuo sat down on the side, and the generals made room for Liu Shuang.

"Childe and the generals are here, I'm just a little captain, where do I dare to sit." Liu Shuang said: "I'll just stand here and say! ”

"You've been with me for a long time, and you can sit." Cao Shuo said: "If it is not a particularly important matter, it should be the soldiers in the Fire Dance Camp who come to report. Since you have come to report it yourself, it must be a big deal. ”

"Childe is wise!" Liu Shuang said: "Yuan Shao ordered Ju Yi to lead the camp to come to the White Horse to defeat Gongzi. ”

"Camp first?" Cao Shuo was stunned for a moment, and asked the generals present, "Who of you knows what their combat strength is." ”

"Hui Gongzi ......" Zhao Yun and Gao Shun responded almost at the same time.

Zilong said first. Cao Shuo motioned to Zhao Yun to say first.

"When I was in front of Gongsun Zhan's tent, although I didn't fight with Xiandengying, I knew that they were amazing." Zhao Yun said: "In the Battle of Jieqiao, Gongsun Zhan's 30,000 army was actually broken by 800 people in the Xiandeng camp, and countless people were killed and wounded. ”

Looking at Gao Shun, Cao Shuo said, "General Gao also talked about it." ”

"Childe should still remember that General Lu stayed with Yuan Shao for some days." Gao Shun said a word and looked at Lu Bu, who was sitting opposite.

"When you say that, I remember." Lu Bu said: "When I was in Hebei, Yuan Shao asked me to lead troops to fight against Zhang Yan of Montenegro, and I was also in the camp at that time. We have witnessed with our own eyes that the soldiers and horses trained by Ju Yi are indeed good, even if the original trapping camp is still there, I am afraid it is not their opponent. ”

"That's amazing." Cao Shuo smiled slightly and said to Liu Shuang: "If it's just Ju Yi who leads the camp to Baima, it's not enough for you to come over in person, tell me again, what is the most fundamental reason?" ”

"Ju Yi came to Baima this time, in fact, Yuan Shao wanted to kill him with Gongzi's hand." When Liu Shuang's words came out, everyone was very surprised.

Cao Shuo asked, "Why did he kill Ju Yi?" ”

"Ju Yi has practiced the first camp, and has repeatedly made military exploits for the Yuan family, but this person has a big problem." Liu Shuang said: "He is arrogant, and he often doesn't take Yuan Shao in his eyes because of his merits, so Yuan Shao came up with this way to kill people with a knife." ”

Liu Shuang continued: "Not only that, Yuan Shao also sent people to Yecheng to let the defenders of Yecheng pay attention to Ju Yi's family, and if Ju Yi behaves abnormally, he will immediately kill his family. ”

"How do you know?" Cao Shuo asked.

"We intercepted the messenger sent by Yuan Shao to Yecheng." Liu Shuang said: "The white horse has been escorted, just outside the barracks." ”

"Bring him here." Cao Shuo commanded.

Sima Yi, who was standing beside Liu Shuang, said to several soldiers: "Go, Captain Liu, bring the prisoners they intercepted." ”

The two guards left, and Cao Shuo said to Liu Shuang and Sima Yi: "Don't stand still, the meat is almost ready, sit down and talk while eating." ”

Sima Yi sat down in response, but Liu Shuang was still hesitant.

Zhu Gongdao stood up and pressed him to an empty place: "Gongzi asked you to sit down, you can sit, is it possible that you still want to disobey?" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Liu Shuang hurriedly replied.

"Since you report to me, what are your plans?" Stirring the meat in the clay pot with a spoon, Cao Shuo asked Liu Shuang.

"What can we do?" Liu Shuang said: "I just want to ask Gongzi, do you want to send someone to Yecheng to rescue Ju Yi's family?" ”

Cao Shuo smiled and said to the generals: "You see, Liu Shuang went to the Fire Dance, and he knows more and more about the severity. He also knew that as long as we rescued Ju Yi's family, we would definitely be able to convince Ju Yi to take the first camp to serve. ”

"If Ju Yi is really willing to take the first camp to serve, it will undoubtedly be a good thing for Gongzi." Pang Tong said: "The first camp is strong, as long as the son makes good use of it......"

"But that's not my soldier after all." Cao Shuo said: "The three battalions of Flying Bear, Dragon Pattern and Breaking Formation, I can stay by my side with confidence, if I really get the first camp, I dare to keep them by my side?" ”

"Then it's up to Ju Yi!" Sima Yi said: "I have heard of this person, although he has some skills in military training, but he is much worse at dealing with people. He has today, and he didn't know how to be restrained in front of Yuan Shao in the past. ”

Nodding, Cao Shuo said, "No matter what, I will take in the people my father-in-law doesn't want." ”

He said to Liu Shuang: "You bring a batch of fire dances into Yecheng, not only Ju Yi's family, but even Yan Liangwen's family members also bring me out." ”

"These three families are quite a lot." Liu Shuang said: "I'm afraid that we will ...... with only our fire dance."

"Nothing, I'm afraid." Cao Shuo said to Zhu Ao: "Justice, you take some people to follow, leave the matter of entering the city to Huo Wu, and when they bring people out, you escort the white horse." ”

"I'm afraid it will take a lot of days to come and go." Pang Tong said: "I'm afraid that Gong Cao will not allow Gongzi to stay in Baima for too long." ”

"The Yuan family suffered two major defeats in a row, although the troops are still dominant now, the soldiers are not as sharp as before." Cao Shuo said: "In the short term, the Yuan family will not have a decent attack, I will find a reason to delay it." ”

After a while, two guards escorted back a captive wearing Yuan Jun's armor.

When they arrived at Cao Shuo and the others, a guard shouted, "Kneel!" ”

With a shout, he kicked the captive hard in the leg.

The captive was kicked and fell to his knees on the ground.

With his back to him, Cao Shuo asked, "What do you do?" ”

"I am a messenger under the command of Duke Yuan." The captive replied with his head bowed and trembling.

"Where are you going to deliver the message?" Cao Shuo asked again.

"But Yecheng."

"What are you going to do in Yecheng?"

"It won't be long before General Ju Yi will lead the lead to the camp to Hakuba." The captive said, "Duke Yuan told me to go to Yecheng and tell the defenders that if General Ju Yi did anything wrong, his family would be killed immediately." ”

"Does Ju Yi recognize you?" Cao Shuo suddenly asked.

The captives bowed their heads and said nothing.

"Childe asked, why didn't you answer?" One of the guards slapped him on the back of the head.
