Chapter 103 Xie You's Worries and Righteous Envoys
Hua Fei originally wanted people to go to Xuzhou for a trip, but the two thieves turned out to be a hundred. However, he knew that Lu Zhu's family business was all in Xuzhou. If it turns out to be Cao Bao, although he Hua Fei has a bad breath, he can't help but be dragged down by it, his friend Lu Zhu.
After Hua Fei dispersed that day, he turned the Buddha beads alone, and in the slightly cold autumn breeze, he slowly thought about solving the matter of the Cao Bao brothers.
He thought to himself that the current 37 counties in Runan were a place where there was a war on all sides, and the north was in Cao Cao's Yanzhou; In the south, Yuan Shu occupies Huainan; These two candidates and he Huafei all have hatred in their hearts.
Fortunately, Liu Biao in the west agreed to form an alliance, while Tao Qian in the east was already old. Therefore, before Cao Cao took Xuchang and other cities and came into contact with his own forces, he only needed to defend Yuan Shu in Huainan.
Even, if he has time to pull out of the quagmire of grain, he can concentrate on developing his forces, and then attack Yuan Shu to seize Huainan. Therefore, in order to maintain stability, Tao Qian must not be offended.
What's more, he hasn't received a single grain yet, and if he offends Tao Qian, he will probably directly cut off an important grain route.
And Brother Cao Bao is Tao Qian's cronies, if he sends someone to kill Brother Cao Bao openly, it will undoubtedly be according to Tao Qian's old face, and he will 'snap!' A slap in the face.
Therefore, it is not advisable to kill openly. However, if you look at Lu Zhu and Chen Deng, and suffer from the anger of such villains, this evil breath in Hua Fei's heart is really difficult to eliminate.
Besides, Lu Zhu's business is linked to himself, this hateful Cao Bao bullying Lu Zhu, isn't it equivalent to cutting off his Huafei's financial route?
Thinking of this, Hua Fei clenched the slightly cool Buddha beads in his palm, and said in a low voice: "Damn! This hateful guy must be let know that this time is different from the past, and Lao Tzu Huafei is not something he can afford to provoke as a clown. ”
He only felt that he had become a 'three-eyed', and he turned the Buddha beads and continued to think in the faint sandalwood fragrance, it is not advisable to kill openly, so what about using secret calculations? After a long time, he shook his head and dismissed the idea.
Because, Cao Bao has re-served as the soldier of Xuzhou, and he must be supported by heavy soldiers. What's more, the elite soldiers of Danyang are all under their control, and it is impossible for him to send assassins to succeed easily.
If you are not careful, it is easy to startle the snake and even fall into the mouth. Hua Fei thought to himself, unless it was a general, a marksman like Tai Shici. After a blow from afar, no matter whether you hit or not, you can quickly get out of the scene. Yes, it's a safe move.
However, Hua Fei knew that Tai Shici had the persistence of being a martial artist, and he would never do anything that hurt people with secret arrows and damaged his personality.
At this point, when facing Sun Ce, Hua Fei asked him to shoot Sun Ce with an arrow, but Tai Shi Ci hesitated. It's okay, you can see it clearly. This night, Hua Fei pondered alone for a long time, and only fell asleep when it was about to dawn.
The next day, Tai Shi Ci was ordered to hand over the cavalry headquarters to Chen Zhi, who was capable of riding and walking, for the time being. And after conspiring with Hua Fei for a long time, he took Hua Fei's handwritten letter to Tao Qian, led the elite of the hundred cavalry guards, and sent an envoy to Xuzhou.
A few days later, Tai Shici led people and arrived safely in Tancheng, Xuzhou all the way without incident. After being received by Tao Qian, he presented Hua Fei's handwritten letter.
Tao Qian crouched on the table, tried to open a pair of faint presbyopia, and read the letter carefully. The expression on his face also changed.
Originally, Cao Hong, who was scared to hide behind Tao Qian because he saw Tai Shici coming. Then he asked in a low voice, "My lord! I don't know this Hua Fei Xiao ...... What did you say in the letter? ”
He originally wanted to scold Hua Fei villain again, but when he saw Tai Shici present, he remembered that his brother was still talking, and he often leaked air. Then he shrunk his neck and hurriedly changed his words.
Tao Qian grinned when he heard this, and the old man said "hehe" twice, and threw the letter to Cao Hong for him to look at.
But he smiled at Tai Shici and said: "Your lord Hua Pengzhan does not forget the old man's old help." The special Ziyi came to thank him with a letter, and was willing to take the dog to Runan for a trip, which is really a believer in the world! General Ziyi galloped all the way, but it was hard for you! ”
When Tai Shi Ci heard this, he replied with a respectful hand: "My lord, I often remember the grace of waiting for the promotion of the master." This time, the Dangping Yellow Turban Army, which was fortunate enough to live in peace, completely occupied the 37 counties of Runan. Because Ci had lived in Xuzhou for a period of time, he was also considered to have an old relationship with the waiting master, so Teci came to thank him. The trust of the Lord of mercy does not dare to say the word hard work. ”
As he spoke, he paused slightly, and then said: "As for the matter of picking up Gongzi Runan's trip, my lord has a word, just to promote the emotional exchange between the two sides. And said that the master will understand the deep meaning. ”
Tao Qian nodded when he heard this, he has been in the world for a long time, and he has long been old and treacherous. How could he not hear that Hua Fei's meaning was to help his son after a hundred years.
Then he stretched out his right hand and tapped on the table. He said slowly: "Peng Zhan is highly talented, and in just over three months, he has become a candidate with more than 80,000 soldiers. But he is partial to the kindness of the newspaper, which really makes people have to sigh, the hero is a teenager! ”
Chen Deng and Lu Zhu in the hall only almost got sick when they heard it. All thoughts, back then, Hua Fei sacrificed his life to help you fight against Cao, you are an old immortal just because other people's fame overshadowed you, and you still want to deal with others. Now that I see that people are amazing, I have become this face again.
Cao Hong, who was behind Tao Qian, was extremely unhappy when he heard this! But he thought to himself: "With the lord here, forgive that Tai Shi Ci and dare not take Lao Tzu what?" ”
Then he pouted, 'Huh! With a sharp voice, he said, "You are too ashamed, right?" More than 80,000 people, he Huafei is small...... That, can you afford to raise him? ”
When Tai Shici heard this, he squinted his eyes and swept Cao Hong coldly, and he was so shocked that he 'whoosh!' He shrank back behind Tao Qian. Only then did he say to Tao Qian: "Recently, my lord led more than 40,000 elite soldiers to defeat the more than 90,000 troops who called himself 'Xuzhou Bo' Yuan Shu at the Anfeng Ferry of the Huai River. The harvest of this battle was quite rich, and more than 630,000 stones were harvested from grain alone. ”
As he spoke, he paused for a moment, and then said: "And I, the monarch of Runan, are united in the development of internal affairs. He also served as Liu Biao in Jingzhou, and also signed an offensive and defensive alliance with my lord. The grain from Jingzhou is in a steady stream and is transported to the 37 counties of Runan. ”
Saying that, he turned his head and squinted at Cao Hong, who was behind Tao Qian and probing his brain, and asked coldly: "Do you still think that my lord can't afford to raise an army of 80,000?" ”
Saying that, he couldn't ignore Cao Hong, who was 'squeaky and poor', turned his head to Tao Qian and said, "Waiting for the master! My Lord has a word to convey on my behalf. ”
Tao Qianqiang smiled: "Ziyi, please speak!" ”
Tai Shi Ci said: "My lord said that Yuan Shu called himself 'Xuzhou Bo', which may have another meaning. And Xuzhou is vast and rich, the people are rich and rich, and it is also a military important place in the north and south. Therefore, it often attracts the coveted of wolf ambitions, and I hope that Hou Ye will pay more attention. ”
Tao Qian was speechless when he heard this, and lowered his head and pondered for a while. Only then did he say to Tai Shici: "Thank you Lord for reminding me, I have heard about this matter for a long time." ”
Tai Shi Ci nodded and said, "My lord also asks for the master, don't worry too much." At present, although Runan and Xuzhou do not have an alliance covenant, they do have the meaning of an alliance. If there are foreign enemies such as Cao Cao in Xuzhou to attack, my lord will definitely send troops to help. ”
Tao Qian heard this, 'Hiss! His eyes lit up and he gasped. He thought to himself that Huafei's words were really beautiful; It's really a hidden needle!
He knew that Hua Fei was giving him a wake-up call. At present, Xuzhou has Cao Cao in the north and Yuan Shu in the south. If he doesn't know each other and is better than Huafei in the west, then he is only afraid of his Xuzhou, and he will have more enemies on three sides and less auspicious.
Therefore, Hua Fei can only be befriended, and must not be offended. Thinking of this, Tao Qiannai smiled with a "hehe" smile: "General Ziyi! Your Lord has a heart, and he is not a man who does not know what is good or bad. ”
Saying that, he groaned slightly, and then said: "General Ziyi has worked hard from afar, and tonight I will set up a thin banquet in the mansion to catch the wind for the general, and I hope the general will not shirk!" ”
Tai Shi Ci was about to thank him for two words, but he heard Tao Qian say again: "As for the fact that there is no covenant between us and the other parties, we will wait for this to discuss with the Caos." Tomorrow, Ben Hou will send someone with the general to visit your lord and formally conclude an alliance of attack and defense. You see, is that possible? ”
Tai Shici was overjoyed when he heard this, knowing that Tao Qian was already counted, and officially recognized Hua Fei as an equal to him. Whoever gives his hand as a courtesy must express his gratitude.
But Cao Hong was in a hurry when he heard this, and jumped out and shouted: "Lord! Don't ally with that Huafei villain, that Huafei is the lord's lord......"
At the end of his words, Bi Taoqian already knew that something was wrong, and he raised his hand to stop it, but it was too late. Tai Shici heard this Cao Hong, and dared to scold Hua Fei as a villain in front of him.
The sword eyebrows were raised, and the wide mouth opened and the tiger roared: "Bold!" "Just one arrow jumped out, 'Wow!' With a strong wind, he came to Cao Hong's side. The strength of the arm raised, the wind was vigorous, and a palm shone on the villain's face, and then slammed it fiercely.
