As Ion saw, Zhong Ming should not be too worried this time, and the truth will always be revealed one day. I believe that there is a son-in-law with General Lu, and it is not difficult for Zhong Ming to ascend to the high pavilion again. Besides, hasn't Ang always been the same as Zhong Ming, you now, you don't have any official position, don't you also contribute to the Han? Qin Xujiu told Cao Ang the truth of the matter, poured out his grievances, and did not forget to remind Cao Ang from time to time that these words were just a matter of saying, so that Cao Ang could listen to it and believe it or not. I don't know if Qin Xu's acting skills are too good, or the various versions of the news from Linzi, which have made the outside world confused, Qin Xu's attitude made Cao Ang nod again and again after listening to what Qin Xu said, and finally began to comfort Qin Xu, so that Qin someone, who was about to have internal injuries when he was smiling, even rarely felt a little guilty about Cao Ang, a rare honest child in the late Han Dynasty.

"What Zixiu said is that Xu is out of shape!" Qin Xu sighed falsely and said: "Xu also expects to say that he really wants to be white, but now that there is a big drought in the Central Plains, Xu's actions have made Qingzhou passive and unbearable, attracting the watch of the Quartet, which is really guilty." Ahem, Xu has nothing else to do, and I hope that Zixiu will not be surprised, just because Xu's wife and brother Xuzhou don't drive Mi Zhu, and also delay a lot of involvement in this matter, and even come to Zizi for a few days, Xu didn't dare to see each other, really ashamed, if there is a gaffe, I hope Zixiu will forgive. ”

"Zhong Ming is too careful!" Cao Ang nodded a little embarrassed, thinking that he was also a little embarrassed by what Qin Xu said, paused slightly, and said: "Zhong Ming doesn't have to be worried, Ang will definitely help Zhong Ming when he visits Mi Zizhong." As for this incident, Zhong Ming can rest assured, Qingyan Erzhou is an ally, and Zhong Ming has to tell the truth of the matter calmly this time, and he will definitely return truthfully by Zhong Ming's previous warning and drought, I believe that my father will definitely choose to advance and retreat with Qingzhou! ”

So you believe it? I don't know what Cao **'s purpose is, he actually sent Cao Ang to Linzi, and now he was forced by Qin Xu's words, and the extremely logical "truth" that Qin Xu said was roughly consistent with his own detailed intelligence, so he actually made a promise. However, Cao Ang still remembered the entrustment summarized by the ministers who had suffered a big loss in Qin Xu's hands before coming to Linzi, and he didn't say anything to death, but it was enough to satisfy Qin Xu.

"Youzi Xiu said this, Xu can finally breathe a sigh of relief for a while!" Qin Xu made a look of gratitude, and then added a fire and said: "If Jing Zixiu persuades, General Cao can really take care of the feelings of his allies, look at this matter impartially, and support Qingzhou with righteousness, Xu is willing to persuade the lord to allocate 30% of the 100,000 stone grain and grass paid by Tao Qian this time as a thank you gift!" To report the love of Zixiu and General Cao. ”

"This, Ang is just adhering to the original intention, and he does not have the intention of retribution, how can Zhong Ming make this so?" Cao Ang originally believed Qin Xu's words very much, and was a little frustrated that he might have to run away empty, and he didn't know how to explain to Cao **, but he didn't expect Qin Xu to suddenly offer such a price because of such a little talk, which was quite unexpected by Cao Ang. Thirty percent of the 100,000 stone military rations is not much, but it is indeed not a small amount for Yanzhou, which is also very seriously affected.

But how can you not do it? Although there were indeed some misunderstandings in Qingyan Erzhou before, those were already in the past. Now that the two states are allies, how can they watch when their neighbors are in trouble? Besides, in the current drought, if General Cao's plan for Chang'an succeeds and successfully rescues the Son of Heaven from the hands of thieves, how can he support the Son of Heaven with only Yanzhou and Sili, two hard-hit places? The left and right are for the sake of the Han Society, so Zixiu should not shirk! Qin Xu seemed to be moved by Cao Ang's willingness to believe what he said before, and said to Cao Ang's little brother who had insufficient life experience: "Although Qingzhou is barren and there are not many fertile fields, there are quite few troops, although the military food stored by our army before was slightly insufficient after being distributed to various states and counties, but there is a part of the military food sent by Tao Qian, which is allocated to General Cao, and it can still support a period of time. ”

"I didn't have such a great righteousness in Zhongming's heart, and Ang still had doubts about what Zhongming said, so I was really ashamed." Cao Ang saw that what Qin Xu said was very "sincere", his face showed a little surprise, as if he had made up his mind, and said: "Zhong Ming rest assured, I believe that Mi Bei will definitely clarify the facts and not make it difficult for Zhong Ming." And I, the people of Yanzhou, will definitely feel the help of Lu Qingzhou and Zhong Ming. ”

"Second brother, is it possible that the materials transported from Jinan this time are really ......" sent away the price of only using the 30,000 stone grain that was intended to support Yanzhou, and forgot how much military food Qin Xu had cheated from Yanzhou, Cao Ang, who was bent on "speaking up" for Qin Xu, did not wait for Qin Xu to breathe a sigh of relief, but unexpectedly, Hao Zhao, who had been standing beside Qin Xu and listened to Qin Xu's words of confusion, suddenly asked.

"Huh? Think for yourself! Qin Xu couldn't help but look at Hao Zhao, who was frowning and worried, but he didn't expect that his true and false words not only made Cao Ang, an honest child, into the court, but even the future famous general Hao Zhao who was listening to the audit also believed it, and said angrily at the moment. However, in general, Cao Ang's arrival made Qin Xu and Lu Bu's plan to pull the surrounding forces into the water successfully took the first step, and Qin Xu's mood was still good. I believe that through Cao Ang's remarks, coupled with the support of 30,000 stone of grain, even if Cao ** cannot fully believe what Qin Xu said, he will follow Qin Xu's statement and turn his attention to what Cao ** regarded as a bag, and now because of the drought, the resurgence of the yellow turban in Yuzhou and Xuzhou, which once made Cao ** quite faceless, win time for Qingzhou to develop. The next thing to wait for is to see what banner Yuan Shao's envoy is coming, if he also wants to get a piece of the pie, Qin Xu doesn't mind telling the truth about the fraud in the plains and Beihai, and persuades Lu Bu to pay a part of the price, but also to let Yuan Shao, who has shown decline, continue to stick with Gongsun Zhan, who has the help of the big-eared brothers, whether it is Gongsun Chan who has been in the building since (embers) in history, or Lao Yuan, whose heart is higher than the sky and whose life is thinner than paper, after the general unification of Hebei, he will set his sights on Qingzhou, which has not yet been **, That's more than worth the loss.

Although the news that Cao Ang visited Qin Xu, who had been dismissed from his official position by Lu Bu, seemed nothing unusual, it was soon known by people who were always concerned about the matter in Qingzhou, and no one knew what the conversation between the two said, but judging from the fact that Cao Ang could not hide his joy after coming out of the Qin Mansion, it must have been an unexpected benefit, and it is difficult not to let people start to speculate that Cao Ang, as the eldest prince of Yanzhou, will be in such a state that can also represent the attitude of Cao **, the lord of Yanzhou, towards Qingzhou in some respect. This is indeed good news for Qin Xu, who bothered to drag Cao Jun's forces into the water, but Qin Xu has no time to take care of it now.

"This is a letter of help from Xuzhou Tao Lao'er just transferred to Zizhong's hand, take a look!" In the Qingzhou Mu Mansion, Lu Bu stared at a roll of silk silk in his hand with a gloomy face, handed it to Qin Xu and said, "This Tao Lao'er may know that we will not return Kan Xuan's looted things, and there will definitely be all kinds of arguments, so he has other ideas. I don't believe it, just Yuan Shu and the like, were beaten like a lost dog by that Cao **, all the way to escape, panicked in Yangzhou Jiujiang, Lujiang two counties, only a few months of hard work, but gathered thousands of remnants, can make Tao Qian, who has 30,000 Danyang elite soldiers, as frightened as the letter said? Do you still want me to transfer troops from Qingzhou? What a joke! ”

"The lord is right, Tao Qian really wants to get back the original in another place! It's really going to pick the time, it's a clear reason not to let us have a reason to refuse! Qin Xu took the silk silk in Lu Bu's hand, glanced at the letter for help that Tao Qian sent after Mi Zhu arrived in Qingzhou for a few days, shook his head and said with a smile. I can't help but have a bad face on Lu Bu, Yuan Shu doesn't look at his skills, but his ability to add chaos is not bad, but it happened that because Qingzhou and Xuzhou were hiding in order for Kan Xuan to loot Pengcheng and Donghai two counties, and there were some cracks in the relationship, they brazenly launched an attack on Xuzhou Xiapi and Guangling two counties. gave Tao Qian an excellent excuse to "legitimately" get back the "old book" from other aspects on the surface.

When Lü Bu withdrew from Xiapi, he had an alliance with Tao Qian, and the price of leaving 20,000 Qingzhou soldiers to change the defense of Xiapi was to hand over the Yellow Turban thieves and Kan Xuan's rebel party at the time of the siege of Xiapi to Xuzhou for disposal, and agreed that if there were any more thieves attacking in Xiapi, Lü Bu would send troops to help.

The world is impermanent!

At that time, neither Lu Bu nor Qin Xu expected that the north of Xuzhou was the ally Qingzhou, the west was Yanzhou, which had no time to look eastward, and Yuzhou, which was ravaged by the Yellow Turban, and the south was Yangzhou, which was in chaos. Who knew that this Yuan Lao Er really dared to attack Xuzhou. And judging from Tao Qian's letters, this time, the second child of the Yuan family, who dared to provoke Cao ** to attack Chen Liu, if it weren't for Liu Biao's nerves and sudden dispatch of troops, maybe he would really succeed, he did have a few brushes under his hands, with only a few thousand troops, and in a few days, he captured more than ten county towns at the junction of the two counties of Pi Guangling. And I don't know what kind of hatred Tao Qian has, and he also dealt a ruthless hand to Guangling County, which is close to Yangzhou and is less affected by the drought, and the grain, money, and population are all within the scope of his captivity, and Xuzhou is shaken. This ruthlessness, coupled with the background of his old Yuan family and the relationship with Yuan Shao, was actually terrifying Tao Qiankong held 30,000 Danyang elite soldiers in his hands and watched from afar, not daring to move lightly, and instead used the original covenant to bind, using the ownership of Qingzhou as a secret bargaining chip, and sent a letter to Lu Bu in Qingzhou for help. Kill two birds with one stone, good intentions!

"This Tao Qian old man has caused chaos this time, but how to deal with it? You've always had a lot of ideas, but do you have a solution? Lu Bu frowned, obviously under the stable surface of Qingzhou, there were dark waves, and when he used the sword again, even Lu Bu, who had always been war-loving, was also a little worried.

"Lord Mingjian, this Tao Qian Lao'er probably knows that the current disaster in Qingzhou is fierce, and the people's hearts are unstable, so it is not appropriate to use the sword lightly, and it is a good calculation to send this letter for help at this time." Qin Xu understood what Lu Bu meant, set the tone first, and said with a light smile flashing on his face: "Don't care how this old Tao knows everything about the situation in Qingzhou, just the meaning behind this letter for help, I'm afraid that he also wants to use the things hidden by Kan Xuan in Qingzhou in exchange for the opportunity for the Qingzhou soldiers to leave Xiapi, that is, I have decided that this time I Qingzhou has obtained a large amount of food and military funds, but I have to go all out to covet the surrounding forces, lack of skills, and the means to act." However, this old Tao is too shrewd, but he has also helped me a lot in Qingzhou......" (To be continued.) )
