"General Lu, Cao ...... Cao Jun has withdrawn! Cao Bao, as the chief general who controlled one-third of the Danyang troops in Xuzhou, and Lu Bu did not directly reject his previous life, he was the first to react this time, and asked with an unbelievable face.

Bu Zeng did write a letter to Cao Mengde on behalf of Tao Xuzhou, stating the stakes, but he sternly refused, and vowed to fulfill the preface and slaughter Xuzhou. Bu remembered that Gongzu was seriously ill and did not wake up at that time, and he was worried that Xuzhou would suffer from this disaster in vain, so he took the responsibility of being misunderstood by Brother Gongzu and changed his defense to Xuzhou! Unexpectedly, Cao Mengde suddenly withdrew from the army, but he was in a hurry. But please rest assured that since this Cao army has retreated, tomorrow Bu will immediately retreat! Listening to what Cao Bao said, Lu Bu nodded solemnly, and said to Tao Qian, who was stunned because of the news, with a sincere expression.

"No, no, no...... Wen waits for this to be heart-wrenching! Lu Bu said seriously, it seemed that he was thinking about Tao Qian's reputation in Xuzhou, but after all, Tao Qian had gone through several dynasties of the Han Dynasty and had seen too much wind and rain, and as soon as Lu Bu said this, the eyes of these Xuzhou officials under his family looked at Lu Bu and his old Tao changed, and he still didn't understand that if he really agreed to Lu Bu, then he Tao Qian, the Xuzhou pastor, would not have much time to do. Originally, because of the Yellow Turban incident, he asked for help in Qingzhou, which had already made Tao Qian's incompetent image faintly erected in the hearts of the people of Xuzhou, coupled with Cao Cao's attack, he was in a panic. He fainted in front of people's eyes. But who would believe that this was caused by Tao Qian's anger at his own son Tao Qian, which led to the recurrence of his old illness? It is not clear that Xuzhou Tao Qian was frightened by Yanzhou Cao Cao, which is a very face-saving thing. If Lu Bu is allowed to leave so lightly now, then Lao Tao will be in vain for the past sixty years, and he secretly pouted at the moment. made a look of gratitude, and said: "Tao knows very well that Cao Cao's sudden withdrawal from the army this time must be just as the Qin master said, seeing Wen Hou change his guard, he is worried that he will be defeated by Wen Hou again as he did the previous times, so he temporarily let go of the 'misunderstanding' with Xuzhou." Retreat to the other side. Tao is really grateful! You and I are adjacent to each other, and we should get along like brothers, and Tao just wants to take the opportunity of this warm change of defense to get close to General Fengxian. ”

"My lord. Qingzhou was settled, and when the spring ploughing was busy, the people in the states and counties were unstable and chaotic. This time, in order to save Pi, the lord led the crowd to march in a hurry. I didn't do both. Only leaving Zang Sima to govern the whole state, I am afraid that it is possible to not be able to catch it, and even if the civil can be trusted, but in the land of the four wars in Qingzhou, Zang Ziyuan is only Sima's position, and it is inconvenient to act in many cases. According to Xu, now that the matter in Xuzhou is over, it is estimated that Cao Cao will not attack Xuzhou again. It's better for us to wait as the lord said, don't disturb Tao Xuzhou too much. Return to Qingzhou as soon as possible! As soon as Tao Qian's fake polite words fell, without waiting for Lu Bu to reply, Qin Xu looked impatient with Tao Qian's words, and preemptively said to Lu Bu.

"This ...... What Zhong Ming said is not unreasonable! Lu Bu listened to Qin Xu's words, nodded slightly, and said: "Brother Gongzu, it's not that Lu doesn't want to stay in Xuzhou more, once this army moves, it costs a lot of grain and grass, although Gongzu promised to pay, but this time as Qin Xu said, since Cao Cao has retreated, how can Bu lead the 20,000 army to consume Xuzhou's grain and grass?" Even if Xuzhou is rich, it can't be so tossed, right? Or leave the army early tomorrow morning. It just so happens that all the monarchs are here today, and when they are about to retire, Lu will not say goodbye to you alone! ”

"Be the first and be slow!" Tao Qian now even had the mind to strangle Qin Xu. It's really like all these ages are worth ten, and you are all fools in Xuzhou! Can you not say it so clearly? You are reckless and rampant in Qingzhou, and it is just enough to have Lu Bu to support you, why did you not stop in Xuzhou? Before, because of a few words, Lu Bu's coming to Xuzhou changed from taking money to doing things with righteousness, and it was plain that our old Tao spent a full 100,000 stones, grain and grass and did not fall into a good place; That's it, but this time, because of Cao Cao's affairs, Lu Bu's reputation in Xuzhou has increased unprecedentedly, and even he, the state pastor, is a little out of reach; It's easy to wait until Lu Bu offers to leave, and you kid comes to stir up again! Ming seemed to be persuading Lu Bu to leave as soon as possible, but among those present, including him Tao Qian, which one would really believe that Cao Jun outside the city had just made a move, which meant that Xuzhou was in trouble? Although it is not clear what happened between Lu Bu and Cao Cao, even Cao Cao "cooperated" to make Lu Bu famous, but Tao Qian himself understood very well why Cao Cao came this time. Now if it is really because Cao Cao is afraid of Lu Bu's prestige, and temporarily withdraws from the army, then who can guarantee that after Lu Bu returns to Qingzhou, Cao Cao will make a comeback? At that time, Lu Bu will have nothing to do with it, but how can he Tao Qian serve the public in the future? Don't be our old Tao Lao's eyes dizzy, not to mention other civil and military officials in Xuzhou, just say that Cao Bao, Mi Zhu and the father and son of the Chen family, who were used by Tao Qian as their arms, looked at Lu Bu's eyes very wrong. Don't end up, our old Tao worked hard to govern the three counties and three places of Xuzhou in Fuminfeng, and made a wedding dress for Lu Bu!

"Feng Xian, in fact, Tao came here this time at night to ask for Feng Xian, and I hope that Feng Xian will be for the sake of the brothers and neighbors in Qingxu and Xuzhou, so you must agree!" Tao Qian's brows furrowed slightly, and he pushed away the pottery merchant and Tao Ying who were supporting him, stood up strongly, and gave Lu Bu a deep blow, and said in a sincere tone.

"Huh?" Not only Lu Bu, but even Qin Xu was taken aback by Tao Qian's posture. Why is it difficult for Xuzhou to be negotiated? Even this speech seems to come from a mold, Cao Bao and Mi Zhu had a "plot" against Lu Bu and Qin Xu before, and the first sentence was surprisingly similar to what Tao Qian said at this time. It was not surprising that Qin Xu had this thought, and even Cao Bao and Mi Zhu, who were in the crowd of civil and military forces in Xuzhou, secretly avoided Lu Bu and Qin Xu's strange eyes, and a trace of embarrassment flashed on their faces.

"Ahem, Brother Gongzu is old, and it doesn't hurt to have something to say! Don't be so polite and torture Lu Bu! Lu Bu had already suffered a "loss" in Cao Bao's hands before, and at this time he also had a long memory, so he didn't say too much, and took the first step to help up Tao Qian, who was panting because of the action just now, and said again and again.

"Tao Qian is incompetent! Causing trouble in the sky for no reason, making a huge Xuzhou, the Yellow Turban bandits, Kan Xuan rebellious party, one after another, as a Xuzhou pastor, but helpless and incompetent about Cao Cao's attack! Incompetent! I don't know if Tao Qian is sincere, but in short, this snot and tears have taken back a lot of image points, and he grabbed Lu Bu's hand and howled, which made Lu Bu embarrassed, but also quite helpless, let Tao Qian grab his hand, he couldn't kick this old man away, right?

"Lord...... Lord? Tao Qian only cared about howling there, but he never said anything about what he had just said to Lu Bu, just when Lu Bu was also a little impatient and wanted to pull out his arm, Cao Xing, who was going out of the city, walked into the tent, glanced at Tao Qian who was out of shape with a little hesitation, and got Qin Xu's eyes and said: "The last general and Xuan Gao Ziyi and others were ordered to chase out of the city, but seeing that Cao Cao's camp was empty, but looking at the camp layout and footsteps, it can be inferred that although Cao Cao left in a hurry this time, the army was not chaotic, and the last general had few soldiers, so he didn't dare to chase after him. I came to repay the lord. ”

"You did a good job, Cao Mengde knows the soldiers very well, if you chase the soldiers easily this time, you will definitely fall into his trap!" Lu Bu took advantage of the situation to withdraw his arm from Tao Qian's hand, glared at Qin Xu and said.

"Didn't it happen that when Rixu went to Cao Ying to deliver the lord's handwritten letter, Cao Cao already expected that the lord would inevitably change his defense to Picheng, and he had plans to withdraw at that time?" After getting Lu Bu's eyes, Qin Xu pretended to suddenly realize, took a deep breath, and said: "Xu once listened to Feng Xiaozhi Jiao Xun Yu Xun Wen in Chenliu said that this Cao Mengde once got a lot of unique books on the art of war when he was in Luoyang, and spent several years taking its essence to remove its dross, and compiled a new book of Meng De, which was regarded as a secret and easily refused to show it. Xu was fortunate enough to hear a few of these sentences from his eldest son, Cao Ang, and may be able to explain Cao Cao's actions today! ”

"Master Qin, but please speak!" When Tao Qian heard Qin Xu's words, he couldn't care less about howling, and asked again and again.

"The enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy is stationed and I disturb, the enemy is tired and I fight, and the enemy retreats and I chase!" Qin Xu said 10,000 words of sorry to the future Taizu in his heart, but his face was extremely solemn and attached it to Cao Cao's head, anyway, there is no way to check, no one will be bored enough to catch Cao Cao and ask if he said this, right?

"This ...... Hiss! All the people in the tent who could understand it, after savoring the sixteen-character mantra, all took a breath of cold air, and even Lu Bu looked at Qin Xu with a gleam in his eyes. Others may believe that this may really be what Qin Xu heard from Cao Ang, but Lu Bu didn't believe it for no reason, and his burning eyes looked at Qin Xu, who was already weak-hearted, a little hairy.

"Cao Cao! Cao Cao...... "Tao Qian is also a person who knows the soldiers, and knows the energy represented by these sixteen characters, if he can really use these sixteen words of mantra, the so-called small broad, weak to defeat the strong will not be too difficult." No wonder Cao Cao became a eunuch in such a short period of a few years, and from this short passage alone, you can get a glimpse of the leopard, Cao Cao is not easy to mess with! Tao Qian's eyes flashed with a firm look, when Xuzhou Wenwu was still savoring the sixteen words, he made a big gift to Lu Bu, regardless of Lu Bu's support, the developed tear ducts gushed out two lines of old tears again, and said quite chokedly: "Since Cao Cao has been convinced that he has a grudge against Xuzhou to kill his father, even if he is hindered by Fengxian Huwei's retreat, he will definitely make a comeback one day, Xuzhou is still inevitably in danger of being ruined, Tao, Tao is a plan for millions of lives in Xuzhou, and wants to entrust Xuzhou to General Lu, and I hope that General Lu will see that he is also a courtier of the Han Dynasty, For the sake of brothers and neighbors in Qingxu Erzhou, don't shirk! ”

"What?" There were nearly thirty people in the big tent, and it could be said that except for Qin Xu, a traverser, everyone was frightened by Tao Qian's words. There are those who are stunned, and there are those who are angry, that is, some Xuzhou officials who are willing to sell Lu Bu a good one in order to seek asylum, and they are also looking at Tao Qian in disbelief at this moment. I don't believe that this is the words of Tao Qian, who has controlled Xuzhou tightly and seamlessly for many years, and even the three local families who have been relied on by Tao Qian as pillars are actually guarded against and have never really brought them into contact with the supreme power.
