After tying up the general who killed the messenger, Tao Ying knew that Cao Cao must have some sincerity now. In order to prevent Cao Cao from being untrustworthy again, Tao Ying decided to take advantage of this great opportunity to blackmail him fiercely. Anyway, in the next two years, he has been busy fighting a civil war with Lu Bu, and he is just looking for talents, and then he will train his soldiers and horses, and when he defeats Lu Bu, he will definitely be strong.

So Tao Ying wrote a letter for the messenger to take back to Cao Cao, and the messenger traveled day and night until he arrived at the huben, the rain became lighter and lighter, when the messenger arrived at the huben, Cao Cao was already lying on the bed with some illness, and he had a headache again.

This time he was angry with Lu Bu, damn Lu Bu, the evil Lu Bu, Cao Cao kept cursing Lu Bu in bed. When the messenger returned, he handed the letter to Xi Zhicai, and took the letter to Cao Cao's couch.

Seeing that it was Xi Zhicai coming, Cao Cao hurriedly got up and asked, "Zhicai, has the messenger ever returned?" ”

Xi Zhicai hurriedly handed over the letter written by Tao Ying and said, "I'm back!" ”

Cao Cao opened the letter, and only a few lines were written on it: "I don't want to cooperate with people who have no faith, if you really want peace, first fulfill the covenant of Yishui, and send Cao Pi first." If you break the contract again, you need to send Cao Zhi again! ”

Cao Cao was shocked and asked, "How did he know that I have a son named Cao Zhi?" Zhi'er is two years old this year! Xi Zhicai also frowned beside him and said, "Can he really predict the future?" If this is the case, the lord will not be his enemy in the future! ”

Cao Cao nodded, and after opening the paper, it was written on the back of the paper: "See people before the rain stops, everything is negotiable, and bring the Shanyang Taishou Great Seal." ”

Seeing the words in the back, Cao Cao calmed down, and Xi Zhicai also sighed and said: "Lord, it seems that he is seeking peace for the land, and since he has a plan, he will definitely not fight the lord." The lord is safe, and Yanzhou is also safe! ”

Cao Cao nodded and said: "Yes, I will give him the Shanyang Taishou Seal Ribbon and let him go to Shanyang County by himself, and then he will be the enemy of Lu Bu, and there are just many helpers, I hope he will keep his promise!" ”

Anyway, Cao Cao has many sons, and there are so many wives and concubines, not to mention that he has an eldest son, so in order to keep Yanzhou, Cao Cao quickly went to Zhencheng to pick up Cao Pi and Cao Zhi.

At the end of July, it is about to be August, it rained in Xuzhou for more than ten days, the sun finally came out again, the sun after the rain is not very hot, some warm, there is a beautiful rainbow in the sky.

Although the scenery is beautiful, it can't resist the cruelty of the battlefield. Tao Ying wanted to sign an agreement with Cao Cao again in Huben, and this time in order to truly achieve peace, Tao Ying asked Cao Cao to send his son first, and then negotiate the conditions.

After two days of drying, the weather in July was extremely hot, it was a hot summer, and the sun was scorching the earth, and soon the ground was dry.

Xu Sheng and Zhao Yun's overseer army arrived at Lanling for 20,000 days and nights, and Lanling was guarded by Cao Chun at this time. Xu Sheng set up camp twenty miles outside the city, and Tao Ying also led his troops with Yu Ban to confront Cao Cao's army outside the city.

The scouts here found the news that the second prince had led his troops to surround Huben, and the elite divisions of Xiapi and Peng Chengguo had gathered in Huben, and the people cried with joy when they heard the news.

Tan County was finally saved, and someone went to tell Tao Qian. Hearing that the second brother had defeated Cao Cao with the strength of the two countries, the pottery merchant hurriedly persuaded Tao Qian to send troops to help. Tao Qian is old and no longer very capable of taking charge, and now the defense of Tan County has almost been handed over to Liu Bei. Tao Qian wanted to let Xuzhou several times, and Liu Bei already had the intention of taking over Xuzhou.

The potter went to beg Liu Bei again, but Liu Bei refused on the grounds that the soldiers of Tan County could not afford to lose. The potters could only be anxious in Tan County, and the reason why Liu Bei was reluctant to send troops was because tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were stationed on the border between Xiapi and Pengcheng, and they didn't know what their intentions were.

It is said that when Tao Ying stationed his soldiers and horses outside the Huben City, Cao Cao looked at the mountains of letters for help on the table in the Huben City and was anxious. He had already sent Cao Ren's army to reinforce Zhencheng, and this base of his could not be lost. But there were more and more urgent letters, and Cao Cao was getting more and more impatient to return to Yanzhou.

Seeing that Tao Ying led the troops outside the city, Cao Cao went out of the city to receive him in order to express his sincerity, and Cao Cao invited Tao Ying into the city to discuss the agreement, but Tao Ying refused.

He didn't believe in Cao Cao's personality, if he entered the city, he locked himself in the city and killed him, and his military horses had no owners outside the city, and they would definitely be shocked by Cao Cao's generals everywhere.

Seeing that Tao Ying was very guarded, Cao Cao could only lead nearly 100 troops to negotiate between the camps of the two sides. August had come, and Lü Bu began to use troops against the three counties of Yanzhou.

It's a little hot, and the afternoon sun is even more scorching and sweaty. Cao Cao built a pavilion outside the city, and prepared a banquet in the pavilion, and Cao Cao personally waited for Tao Ying in the pavilion. After a while, the generals gathered Tao Ying towards the pavilion, and the negotiation could not be mistaken, so the soldiers were all lined up.

In order to prevent Cao Cao from fighting with himself, he couldn't beat him, Tao Ying also specially transferred Zhao Yun from the Lanling battlefield, Zhao Yun followed Tao Ying majestically with a gun and armor, and the two met in the pavilion.

Cao Cao was dressed in golden armor, with a beard on his face, a short man, surrounded only by a seemingly weak strategist. Seeing that Tao Ying had arrived, Cao Cao hurriedly saluted: "Second son, it's been a long time!" ”

Tao Ying snorted: "It's been a long time,, you and I last had an appointment in Yishui, how similar it is to today!" Cao Cao's face was a little embarrassed, but he laughed again: "The second son said that he was laughing, I wanted to send Pi'er to Pengcheng and let him learn more with the second son." ”

"It's a pity, he doesn't want to go, and you can't help it, right?"

Tao Ying sneered for a while, and Cao Cao blushed and said, "Yes, Pi'er is stubborn!" ”

"It's okay, if he comes to Pengcheng this time, I will definitely help you discipline him well. My second son has a lot of means, I can hang people on the beam for three days and three nights, even if I am strong-willed, I will be scared to pee my pants when I see them! ”

"You ......"

After Tao Ying finished speaking, Cao Cao was so angry that he almost couldn't help but go up and beat Tao Ying, next to Zhao Yun hurriedly raised his gun and aimed it at Cao Cao, and the strategist behind Cao Cao hurriedly grabbed Cao Cao and persuaded: "The lord is angry, the lord is angry!" ”

Tao Ying looked at the strategist behind him and asked, "I think this gentleman is good-tempered, I don't know your surname!" ”

Xi Zhicai said to Tao Yingzuo: "Don't have your surname play!" ”

"The surname is play, there are few drama surnames who can follow Cao, are you a drama talent?"

Tao Ying carefully recalled the strategists around Cao Cao in history, and when he mentioned the person with the surname of the play, Tao Ying first thought of the resourceful and resourceful drama Zhicai. He plays card games, and this person has a high appearance rate!
