Cao **'s move to greet Qin Xu according to etiquette despite the silence of the night, carrying the danger that there was a very high possibility of camp roaring, was too obvious.

In fact, strictly speaking, Qin Xu's identity is the assassin of Xuzhou and the general of Fenwu, although he has not been knighted, but after all, he is the nominal lord of Xuzhou, and he is enough to be worthy of the courtesy of this prince. But the problem is, not to mention that he Qin and Lao Cao, the "friendship" has not been good enough to this point, just say that although Qingzhou and Yanzhou have the name of allies, the fighting methods in the open and in the dark have never stopped. And Qin Xu came here, and it was very similar to the Qingzhou Lu Bu forces who couldn't hold their breath, or they were worried that he Cao someone would not be able to resist the powerful Jizhou Yuan Shao, and he would abandon the "method of sharing spoils" that he had agreed with Yanzhou before, and also wanted to get a piece of the pie from the chaos of the battle for the Son of Heaven.

Such a warm and high-standard greeting, who will it be shown to before Yuan Shao's pioneer is about to arrive? It is clear that he wants to push the Qingzhou Lu Bu forces represented by Qin Xu in front of everyone as a shield, to kill, to kill Hongguoguo!

Compared with the most ruthless conspiracy, there are actually flaws to be found, but this conspiracy is always unguardable. Even if Qin Xu knew that Cao ** was doing nothing to be courteous, he was either annihilated or stolen, but Cao ** just wanted to thank Qin Xu for sending Cao Ang's "friendship" thousands of miles away, and it really made Qin Xu unable to find anything to blame for a while.

"Zhong Ming! If you can come here, Cao will be much more relieved! Cao ** personally led his generals to the camp gate to greet him, and when he saw Qin Xu, he made a look of enthusiasm, calling Qin Xu's expression, very intimate, and gave up with a faint glance at his precious son Cao Ang's courtesy, but he only said to Qin Xu: "It's a shame to say, Tongguan is tenacious, Cao Moukong leads these tens of thousands of troops, in addition to spending a lot of military resources in vain, it is still useless, this must be God's pity for Cao's heart, so that Zhongming can come in person, Cao is really overjoyed! ”

"General Cao is tormenting Qin!" Listening to Cao ** saying good things as if he didn't want money, Qin Xu listened to it in his ears, but it was as if he saw Cao ** holding a sharpened knife and walking towards him step by step. Seeing that standing beside Cao **, the generals of the Cao army who had fought for a long time without success, after listening to Cao **'s seemingly sincere words, looked at Qin Xu one by one with a sense of indignation, and knew that he was unconsciously and fell into Cao **'s calculations, and smiled at the moment, and said: "Although Qin is the assassin of Xuzhou, after all, he is young and young, and what he has done here is just to think of his brother and brother, and he can't bear to travel thousands of miles away alone, how can he be worthy of such praise from General Cao, the predecessor of the officialdom?" Besides, this Tongguan is the world's Xiongguan, that is, General Cao's fierce generals are like clouds, the soldiers are brave, and they are still blocked for more than a month and cannot be cracked, General Cao pinned his hopes on Qin, I am afraid that he will be disappointed after all! ”

"This, cough cough, what Cao appreciates most is Qin Yuanjun's humble surname, Ang'er can be friends with Qin Yuanjun, Cao is really lucky." Cao ** obviously didn't expect Qin Xu to be able to put ** paragraph, admitting himself as a junior, and gently and skillfully cleaning up his "offensive", which was also a little embarrassing for a while. Qin Xu has said this thing, if he says some flattering words, I am afraid that the idea of wanting to kill Qin Xu has not been achieved, and it will be difficult to maintain the prestige in the army of the headquarters, and it will be difficult to make a big discount.

"Report! Lord, there is a cavalry unit of unknown origin, under the banner of Yanzi, is rushing towards our army camp from the south direction, it is already less than twenty miles, how to deal with it, please announce it! "There was such a big battle before, if Qin Xu was let go like this, Cao ** was really unwilling, but Qin Xu's words were ingenious, if Cao ** was entangled in Qin Xu's "unprovoked" arrival, he would fall behind, and he would inevitably have to bear the name of overpowering people and bullying the "younger generations". And when Cao ** was in a dilemma, Cao **, who had long been unable to see Cao Ang's arrival, sent out a horse to return, but it happened to relieve Cao **.

"Yan? Hmph, it must be Yan Liang, the cavalry pioneer under Yuan Benchu. This and another famous general in Hebei, Wen Chou, are all original treasures, when the tiger was imprisoned, he saw that Huaxiong...... Ahem, afraid of the courage of Wen Hou, he only deduced that these two people were sent to the city to urge food before it arrived, lest there be half a point of damage. Unexpectedly, this time it was a rare generosity. Cao ** didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, he glanced at Qin Xu, who was "talking to Cao Ang", and Qin Xu, who didn't seem to hear what he was talking at all, said to the generals gathered at the gate of the barracks: "Although he was a friend of Cao Mou at the beginning, this Yan Liang is difficult to guess, and 10,000 cavalry is not a small number, so I have to guard against it. ”

"Brother Zhongming, is this your ploy again? Before, I saw that this Yan Liang cavalry came to Tongguan one step ahead of me, why was it a little later than I waited for this group of half-riding and half-walking? But what is the reason? The honest boy Cao Ang looked like he was asking for advice, and asked Qin Xu to say.

"I guess you don't know the way, right?" Qin Xu was thinking about how to maximize Qingzhou's interests in Cao **, who had already been on guard, and he didn't hear Cao Ang's question very clearly, so he subconsciously replied. didn't know that this unintentional remark happened to tell the "truth" of the matter.

"General, the front is where the Cao army camp is located, you look at the banner of the camp and the antlers of the horse rejection, this time it is absolutely wrong!" Yan Liang rode on a horse, staring at the sneering subordinates with an extremely ugly face. This time, in order to find out the cavalry of the Cao army, which Yan Liang thought wanted to ambush his 10,000 cavalry halfway, it can be regarded as a long detour.

Originally, before leaving, Yan Liang received a secret letter from Yuan Shao, and the wording was very harsh to reiterate the friendship of Jizhou and Yanzhou's "alliance", and repeatedly ordered and reaffirmed the "warning" Yan Liang, at the critical juncture of rescuing the Son of Heaven, especially the Qingzhou envoy plan to "get out" of Yuan Shao's entanglement, and did not mix into this troubled water, he said that he could not be caught again. But having said that, Yan Liang, who is Yuan Shao's confidant, still saw Yuan Shao's plan from the letter, and it has always been the Yuan style that wants to be what and wants to set up the archway.

Therefore, Yan Liang "decided" that Cao Ang's mount, which was driven away by Qin Xu's Xu Huang and other Cao army guards, but came back, was what Yuan Shao wanted but couldn't get, and it must have been used by Cao ** as a war horse to ambush himself and others halfway, and this kind of death was Cao ** who started the war first, and his own side was an excellent excuse for helpless counterattack, how could Yan Liang, who knew Yuan Shao's thoughts well, be ecstatic? The dilapidated dead city surnamed Suo Lantian is too lazy to be bulldozed, and the words that he promised his subordinates to have a good rest are also immediately stopped, what can be more important than grabbing the handle of the slippery old Cao and providing enough excuses for his family to take the opportunity to exterminate Cao's ** forces?

I don't know whether to say that Yan Liang backfired, or that Qin Xu and his party had a big life. Yan Liang would not have expected it even if he wanted to break his head, just when he was proud of the so-called excuse that he was about to obtain, Lu Bu's son-in-law Qin Xu and Cao **'s eldest son Cao Ang were actually less than ten meters away from him at that time, and because the time was too tight, Xu Huang and his party drove the horses not far, but in different directions, if they could wait for a while, maybe more and more horses would come back to the rider's side, plus Qin Xu's peeping, they had already leaked their whereabouts, which would definitely make Yan Liang have a "big harvest". If these two people are in hand, the benefits that Yuan Shao can obtain will be much easier than pursuing a simple excuse to turn his face! It doesn't have to be like this, you have to grit your teeth and put ** paragraph, deliberately hiding the intention that is not a secret, to talk to Cao ** and the snake.

"General Cao! A certain is under the command of Yuan Gong of Jizhou, and the left guard Yan Liang! On the order of the lord, come to help General Cao's righteous move! "Yan Liang has always been known as a wise general in Yuan Shaojun, as the first military general in Hebei, this official speech is also very smooth. Seeing that Cao Jun was coming because of his 10,000 people, the soldiers' spears were erect, densely packed, the bows and crossbows were wound, and the arrows were all aimed at themselves, and the south of the camp was full of military objects used to defend against cavalry, such as horse and deer antlers, and they were fully prepared to deal with the impact of cavalry, even if it was Yan Liang's 10,000 cavalry, if they really wanted to attack this camp, they couldn't say anything.

"The chief general under Ben Chu's command, General Yan Liang? Cao has heard about it for a long time! General Yan came to Cao's military camp in the middle of the night, with more than 10,000 cavalry to help Cao Mouxing's righteous deeds, didn't he know that Cao was trapped under Tongguan and couldn't advance an inch for a long time, so there was a general who dared to come in the starry night to help Cao attack the city and break through? Because Yan Liang's army was in a hurry, Cao **'s painstaking arrangement of the "welcome ceremony" for Qin Xu had to end hastily, which made Lao Cao's mood very bad, and in answering Yan Liang's words, I don't know if it was deliberately done for some people to see, the hint of frivolity and indifference in the words was clear.

"This, if General Cao needs our army's 'help', it will definitely be incumbent upon Yan to become the lord!" Yan Liang never thought that Cao ** would not wait for a greeting as soon as he came up, and even before Yan Liang got off the horse, he explained the "requirements" so bluntly, and it was still so outrageous! Yan Liang's nose was about to be crooked. Cavalry, cavalry understand? In the era of cold weapons, on the plains, the two armies fought in the field, and the cavalry was naturally the king of war, there is no doubt about this, but if you take this advantage and use the most difficult cavalry of all arms to train into an elite as an infantry call, and it is also a siege, then what is it called elite, it is called cannon fodder!

"Then Cao thanked General Yan and Ben Chu. However, General Yan came very coincidentally, Cao had just seen a young talent before, but he didn't expect to see the general at this moment, the first general in Hebei, the so-called heroes cherish heroes, now that the moon is in the middle, it is better for Cao to set up a banquet in the Chinese army to wash the dust, how about introducing the two of you? Yan Liang didn't look like a fool no matter how he looked at it, and Cao ** didn't expect Yan Liang to agree, but the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he really looked very grateful to Yan Liang for coming, and suddenly said.

"Lao Cao, Lao Cao, your intentions are also hateful!" Qin Xu knew Cao **'s intentions when he heard what Cao ** said, and pouted secretly.

"Oh? But I don't know which hero it is? Qin Xu was still slandering at this time, but unexpectedly Yan Liang was really interested, it seemed that he was very interested in someone who admired Cao ** like this and was on a par with himself in his words, and asked.

"Xuzhou Qin Xu ......" Cao **'s voice did not fall, but Yan Liang's face showed a little surprise, but there was a touch of contempt at the corner of his mouth, but he was undisguised! (To be continued.) )
