Chapter VII: The Xuzhou Deliberations Changed and Revived

Hua Fei thought about it for a long time, and finally made up his mind, the conspiracy must be carried out, he thought about leaving this matter to Lu Zhu to arrange, after all, Lu Zhu is reliable, if this matter is arranged in advance, the situation can be better controlled.

In addition, there is the problem of defense, in addition to preparing for Peng Cheng's defense in advance, he also thought of some suggestions and prepared to report to Tao Qian in person when he was ready to discuss tomorrow.

As for the matter of buying land and raising soldiers, he thought that he would have to make a detailed calculation, because after all, raising troops is not a simple matter, and at least food cannot be lacking, and how much rice and grain a soldier needs to eat every day, what weapons and equipment he needs, and how to conduct training, etc., all need to be carefully calculated.

According to his thinking, this is called planning and then acting, so that the time will not be rushed.

He thought about many things, and it was not until a long time later that he fell asleep in the cool breeze, perhaps thinking about it day and dreaming at night, and he rolled and twitched from time to time on the couch.

After a while, I dreamed that the gate of Pengcheng collapsed in the choking smoke, and countless people were cut to rivers of blood under the butcher's knives of the enemy, and the stench smelled of severed limbs and arms, and the people screamed and struggled to stretch out their hands to him.

After a while, I dreamed of the chaos in Yanzhou, full of innocent creatures, cursing the wicked people who caused war and caused them to die without a place to be buried.

Suddenly, I saw Tao Qian's hateful face, and he was sneering at him with a smug face, the elk little sister shed tears in the red dress, and the elk Zhu committed suicide with anger, and all kinds of chaos were different for a while.

He: "Ah! He sat up from the couch, only to find that he was sweating, in the sour smell of choking, in the crisp birdsong, he found that the sky was already bright, remembering that Tao Qian was going to summon people to discuss matters today, and hurriedly got up and freshened up, locked the door and rushed to the house.

Suddenly, I heard the sound of horses' hooves, but I saw that Lu Zhu was coming, and when I saw him, I shouted: "Peng Zhan, you can quickly follow me to the Taishou Mansion to discuss matters." ”

Hua Fei followed Lu Zhu to the Taishou Mansion, only to see a mixture of chariots and horses outside the strict Taishou Mansion, countless servants and private soldiers with bows and knives, gathered in clusters in the east and west.

He followed Lu Zhu into the house, saw that nearly ten people arrived early, was sitting in the hall to talk, Lu Zhu introduced him, there is an old man who is quite energetic but Chen Qi, there is Cao Hong who is almost obscene, but stronger is called Cao Bao, and there is one person who attracts his attention, but it is that Rong.

The reason why Hua Fei paid attention to him was because of the Buddha beads in his hand, thinking that this person seemed to believe in Buddhism, and Xu Taigong's Buddha beads were probably passed down from him, and he didn't know why this person believed in Buddhism, but why it was recorded in history that he was a good killer.

At this moment, another heroic young man burst into laughter and caught his attention.

Lu Zhu smiled: "Why is Yuanlong so happy? ”

Hua Fei was taken aback, only to know that this person was Chen Deng, who had defeated Sun Quan twice in a row and rejected the Jiangdong Xiong soldiers alone, and looked at him and saw that he was more than seven feet long, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and a heroic spirit in his elegance.

When I was looking at it, I suddenly heard Chen Deng say: "Wu Tuntian just returned, and I heard that someone offered advice to break Cao, but I don't know who it is?" ”

When Hua Fei was about to step forward to recommend himself, he suddenly heard shouting outside the door: "The lord has arrived!" ”

Everyone left their seats to greet each other, the white-haired Tao Qian entered the hall, Tao Qian sat on the main seat, and ordered Cao Hong to explain to everyone what Hua Fei offered yesterday.

As soon as Cao Hong finished talking about the strategy, there were some martial artists, and Cao Bao jumped out and shouted: "Lord, think about the time when you followed the left car to ride the general first to break the Qiang Hu, and then to the town of the Yellow Turban, how majestic is this?" ”

He said that he saw Tao Qian smile at this point, and then turned to Hua Fei, who was sitting at the end of the court, and waved his hand vigorously and shouted: "Today, my lord has a state of land, and there are nearly 100,000 people with armor, but why did he listen to what the villain said, and he was afraid to defend the city and did not dare to fight. The leopard is really unfair to the Lord! ”

Tao Qian heard the sound of a pair of muddy old eyes opened violently, obviously about to get angry, and one of the people sitting in the seat rushed out and shouted: "Cao Bao is rude!" "Everyone sees it as a don't drive the moose.

I only heard him say: "Peng Zhan has made it clear that the enemy army is full of people and our army is small, and the weakness of Cao's army is the lack of food and grass, as long as you defend the city and drag the enemy army, and do not let him plunder and replenish the army food, the enemy army will retreat..."

As soon as Lu Zhu finished speaking, Cao Bao shouted and waved his hand, interrupting his words and shouting: "You literati, you are timid and afraid of things, you will only call to defend the city every day, and you don't know who is brave when the two armies fight, if you defend the city, your morale will be three points weaker." ”

Speaking of this, he turned to Tao Qian and saluted: "Lord, the leopard heard that the brave wins in the battle between the two armies, and the lord has the world-famous Danyang elite soldiers in his hands, why should he be afraid of Cao Thief, a group of rabble?" The leopard is worried about the reputation of the lord, and hopes that the lord will think twice, don't let the world laugh at him, the lord is as timid as a mouse. ”

Tao Qian was about to speak, but Cao Hong couldn't wait to run out and shouted: "Yes, the lord is invincible, and the elite soldiers of Danyang are even more invincible, why listen to the words of the ignorant villager, so that the world laughs that my lord is a turtle with a shrunken head?" ”

Hua Fei didn't speak, just watched coldly, thinking with some doubts in his heart: "This Cao family brother, why did he use the agitation method to encourage Tao Qian to fight?" Could it be that they are moles? Or maybe there's something else going on..."

Sitting on Chen Deng, he changed color, went to be pulled by his old father, glanced at him, closed his eyes and shook his head gently, Chen Deng sat down impatiently, sighed and was very lonely.

Tao Qian hesitated, and Lu Zhu said: "Lord, you can win a battle by defending the city, why do you have to go out of the city to attack the enemy?" Need to know the soldiers..."

Cao Bao waved his hand again to interrupt Lu Zhu, tilted his head and wrinkled his nose and sneered: "The soldiers are in danger, right? Look at you literati, all of them are as timid as mice, and you don't have to take away all the heroism of the lord. ”

After speaking, he turned to Tao Qian again and saluted: "Lord, your name for the world's bravery, but it is all from the battlefield of the corpse mountain and the sea of blood, and you have braved the arrows and stones. ”

At this time, Hua Fei was thinking that Cao Hongyou said yesterday: "Xuzhou's 80,000 soldiers and horses are all under the command of this Cao Bao..."

Lu Zhu was close to him, and saw that Cao Bao was called a villain on the left, and a villager on the right insulted him verbally, glaring at Cao Bao and clenching his fists and saying: "Cao Bao, you don't want to insult Peng Zhan all the time, he is kind enough to offer advice, how to treat him as a villain?" ”

Cao Bao glared and waved his hand and shouted: "Elk Zhu, then Hua Fei is a homeless person, why can't I call him a villager?" People like him just drill their heads every day, thinking about how to climb from the rich, today they just saw Cao Jun attacking, and took this opportunity to approach the lord alarmistly and get a way out. ”

He seemed to scream a little dry, swallowed his saliva, and exclaimed: "This kind of villain only thinks about his own interests, but he has not thought about the reputation of the lord, such an act is the behavior of the villain, how can it be said that even you, like him, ignore the reputation of the lord?" ”

Listening to Cao Bao repeatedly insulting himself, Hua Fei didn't say a word, but he thought a little strangely in his heart, this Cao Bao is just a passing figure in history, I can't imagine that he is so sharp-toothed? This is said to have both action and form, which not only provokes Tao Qian but also angers himself?

Immediately, he was relieved, thinking that all the people recorded in history were big people, but this Cao Bao could mix under the state pastor and command the elite soldiers of a state, where would he be a simple character? He secretly reminded himself that he must not underestimate the ancients and commit the ancient precept that arrogant soldiers will be defeated.

He was there in the old god, and Lu Zhu was furious, and he raised his hand to Cao Bao and said angrily: "Cao Bao, you..."

As soon as he raised his hand, Cao Hong stopped doing it and jumped to his feet and shouted: "Don't drive, it is a decision of the free lord and the public, what is the reason for you to call my brother by his name?" ”

Lu Zhu said: "I..."

Over there, Cao Bao grabbed again: "Brother Hong can't be rude to don't drive, if you want to come don't drive, you don't care about it, the reputation of the lord is just confused by that villain." ”

Lu Zhu was about to argue, Cao Hong shouted again: "Yes, the lord is extremely wise, yesterday I heard that Hua Fei's villain was not well-intentioned and wanted to ruin the reputation of the lord, the lord originally wanted to be casual, and sent the villain, but it was the elk who drove you to help the villain, causing the lord to listen to his slander." ”

He paused and raised his hand to raise his head in a circle, and shouted in a lengthened voice: "Oh~~ I remembered, don't drive you by chance?" But I don't know if it was arranged a long time ago, or is there really such a coincidence in the world? ”

Lu Zhu was furious, his face flushed, and he shouted angrily: "Cao Hong wants blood..."

Cao Bao also loudly covered up Lu Zhu's cry, and shouted: "Brother Hong must not be rude, although the lord wants to marry a family with the elk farewell, and the elk has not replied for a long time, but as a person who is not driven by the elk, he will never do such a thing, secretly designing to collude with the villain and destroy the reputation of the lord." ”

"Cao Bao, you..."Lu Zhu saw that he was clearly stabbing Cao Hong, and secretly stabbed himself, only to be so angry that he almost spurted blood, and the halberd pointed angrily.

Then Cao Hong shouted loudly to Cao Bao again: "Brother, you don't know, if it was a moose don't drive, of course he wouldn't do such a thing, at most he would be unwilling because the eldest son of the lord is too old, but if he happens to encounter the instigation of villains like Hua Fei..."

At this point, Cao Hong paused slightly, shook his head and shouted: "That's it!" ”

Sitting on Chen Deng is also a generous person, seeing that these two brothers are two swords together, you and I have a word, the siege is so difficult that Elk Zhu can not parry, just pour sewage on him, and is about to stand up despite his father's resistance.

Suddenly, a person in the hall shouted loudly: "Lord! But Hua Fei saw that Tao Qian changed color because of Brother Cao Bao and talked about the marriage, and knew that if he continued to plan, he was afraid that he would drag Lu Zhu down, so he hurriedly stepped forward.

However, before he could speak, Cao Bao shouted: "Villain, you dare to show up, come on!" ”

He led the army for a long time, and his momentum was quite majestic, and the two guards of the gate responded loudly in an angry voice: "Oh! "Rush in.

Cao Bao didn't wait for the doorman to salute, and pointed at Hua Feili with a halberd and said, "Give me this villain's stick!" "If Hua Fei is not allowed to say a word, he must be driven out quickly, saving himself from his own good deeds.

said that it was too late and that it was fast, and the two guards responded: "Yes!" He pounced on Hua Fei like a wolf.

"Slow!" Hua Fei shouted, but in the eyes of the guards, what was he? One dragged him from left to right, and hurried towards the door.
