Just when Liao Hua and the others learned that Cao Ying had sent troops to Xuzhou, Liu Zhang also received the news, but he felt very strange. Because Liu Zhang once reminded Cao Ying that when he went to pick up his old father, he would send more people. Didn't Cao Ying listen to his own words? If this is the case, Cao Song deserves to die!

In fact, Cao Song did not die, he was just a little frightened. In this regard, Cao Ying is still very grateful to Liu Zhang, after all, Cao Song is Cao Ying's father. However, Cao Ying will not let Xuzhou go because Cao Song is not dead. You must know that Cao Ying has always been short of grain, and Xuzhou is a large grain-producing state, Cao Ying has long wanted to attack Xuzhou, but he only lacks an excuse. Now that he has an excuse, how could Cao Ying let Tao Qian go?

Cao Ying's soldiers came to Xuzhou, and Xuzhou's civil and military forces became a mess. Historically, Cao Ying slaughtered the people of Xuzhou because his father died in Xuzhou. But this time, Cao Song did not die, Cao Ying not only did not embarrass the people of Xuzhou, but also distributed the things that could not be taken away to the people. After the initial panic, the people of Xuzhou gradually accepted Cao Ying.

Xuzhou Thorn Mansion, looking at the steady stream of battle reports, the old Tao Qian, who was in his sixties, frowned like a Sichuan character. At the beginning, he was really kind and sent someone to escort Cao Song. But he never expected that it was this kindness that caused the current distress. Knowing this, why did he bother to shoot Cao Ying's ass? It's a pity that it's too late to regret it!

"Lord, in the current situation, it is better for us to make peace with Cao Ying!" Xuzhou guard Cao Bao is a straw bag as his name suggests, and seeing that Cao Lai is powerful, he is already afraid.

"Peace?" Tao Qian sighed secretly in his heart, why didn't he want to make peace, but Cao Ying was obviously not good, is it possible to make peace?

"What to talk about!" A loud shout sounded, Tao Qian's second son Tao Ying said angrily: "Cao Mengde is uneasy and kind, he just wants to annex Xuzhou, if he makes peace with him, my father and son are safe?" According to me, I fought with Cao Ying! ”

"Fight? What to fight! Cao Ying's fierce generals are like clouds, just by us, what is the difference between sending them to death? Cao Bao looked disdainful, although he was very incompetent, he also looked down on Tao Qian's two sons!

"General Cao, you really live up to your name!" Tao Qian's eldest son, Tao Shang, said in a weird manner on the side: "It's really a straw bag!" ”

"You!" Cao Bao was furious and pulled out the sword at his waist.

"That's it! Cao Ying hasn't hit Xuzhou yet, you guys are like this, if you really call, are you going to fight back? Seeing the second son arguing with Cao Bao, Tao Qian's face was full of indignation. Now that the enemy is present, Tao Ying and Tao Shang still don't know the same enemy, Tao Qian feels deeply disappointed in the two!

was reprimanded by Tao Qian, Cao Bao, Tao Ying, and Tao Shang retreated, and the dull atmosphere in the conference hall returned. Suddenly, everyone heard the sound of crutches hitting the ground and the old man coughing, and Tao Qian was overjoyed.

"I've seen the lord!" An old man, supported by a young man, walked into the council hall and bowed to Tao Qian.

Tao Qian hurriedly walked down and hugged the old man and said, "Brother Han Yu, why are you here!" ”

"The prince of the mansion is in the autumn of critical survival, if the old decay does not come again, these little guys will sell you!" It turned out that the person who came was Chen Qi and Chen Hanyu, the head of the Chen family in Guangling. Chen Qi, who is nearly eighty years old now, can be said to have the same prestige in Xuzhou. Not to mention the juniors Cao Bao and Mi Zhu, even Tao Qian has to call him a brother! Of course, this is not only because of Chen Qi's background, but also because of the power of the Chen family.

Listening to Chen Qi's words, Cao Bao blushed and quickly lowered his head, as if he was afraid of Chen Qi. However, Tao Qian is a kind person, he saw Cao Bao's embarrassment, and quickly changed the topic and said: "Cao Qian is powerful, and I can't do anything, isn't it discussing now!" Naturally, they have their own opinions! ”

Tao Qian's face still has to be given, Chen Qi stared at Cao Bao and snorted coldly: "Forget it this time!" You can't forget your roots, you must remember the good of Tao Fujun! As long as Tao Fujun is still there, don't mention surrender to me! Even if you want to surrender, you must keep the surname of Tao Envoy Jun! Got it? ”

"Got it!" Cao Bao hurriedly agreed.

You must know that Chen Qi's prestige is too high, if he gets angry and finds Cao Bao's father, even if Cao Bao is the current head of the Cao family, it will be very troublesome. Of course, Cao Bao also heard a hint of voiceover, that is, Chen Qi only cares about Tao Qian, if Tao Qian dies, he doesn't care! Even Cao Bao could hear it, and Tao Qian naturally wouldn't fail to hear it. However, Chen Jue is also benevolent and righteous in doing so, after all, Chen Jue has no obligation to take care of the Tao family's descendants!

"Brother Han Yu, you have always been resourceful. Since you're here, you must have an idea to deal with Cao Ying! Tao Qian didn't care about Chen Qi either. It's a big deal, give Xuzhou to someone who can take care of his son!

"There is no plan, there is a way!" Chen Qi smiled and asked, "Since Fujun can't beat Cao Ying, why don't you ask someone to help?" ”

"Who can help me?" Tao Qian's eyes lit up, he had no reinforcements to ask, but Chen Qi was different. With Chen Qi's status, if you want to ask for some reinforcements, it is not a piece of cake.

"Beihai Taishou Kong Rong Kong Wenju!" Chen Qi said with a smile: "Beihai is not far from Xuzhou, and it only takes three or five days to go back and forth. Departure now, maybe Cao Ying has not yet arrived in Xuzhou, and the reinforcements have already arrived! ”

"But will Kong Rong help me?" Tao Qian was a little puzzled, he didn't have a relationship with Kong Rong, and he also heard that Beihai was besieged by the Yellow Turban, and now he doesn't know if the siege has been lifted!

"Of course it will help you!" Chen Jue took out a letter from his arms and said: "With my handwritten book here, Kong Beihai will not refuse!" However, the person I want to invite is not Kong Rong, but Liu Bei and Liu Xuande! ”

"Liu Bei is also in Beihai?" Tao Qian had participated in the alliance of princes, so he naturally knew Liu Bei, and he still remembered Liu Bei's second brother Wei Yan vividly.

"As far as I know, some time ago, it was said that the Yellow Turban Thieves besieged Beihai, and it was Liu Bei who led his troops to relieve the siege!" Chen Qi was full of smiles, and Tao Qian was also excited.

"Who is willing to send an envoy to Beihai and bring reinforcements for me?" Tao Qian glanced at everyone, only to see Tao Ying and Tao Shang immediately avoid Tao Qian's gaze, Cao Bao also lowered his head, only Mi Zhu and the young man who was holding Chen Qi were left, and they were still looking at Tao Qian!

"I'll do it!" The young man who was holding Chen Qi was about to speak, and Mi Zhu stepped forward and said: "Everyone here has a heavy responsibility, but my ability is shallow, why don't I go to Beihai to ask for help?" ”

"Zizhong, you fight with me again!" The young man who was holding Chen Qi couldn't help but smile bitterly, he knew that Mi Zhu had intentions. I don't see, most of the Mi family's wealth has been transferred to Yizhou.

"Yuanlong, it's not that I want to fight with you, but you are the proud son of the Chen family, how can you go to the danger lightly?" It turned out that the young man who supported Chen Qi was the pride of the Chen family, Chen Deng, Chen Yuanlong, and he and Mi Zhu were close friends.

"Alas!" Chen Deng sighed and didn't speak, but Chen Qi showed displeasure on his face. The Chen family is a family with a long history, and Chen Jue looks down on a merchant family like Mi Zhu the most.

"Let's leave it to Zizhong!" Seeing Chen Qi's displeasure, Tao Qian thought that he didn't want Chen Deng to go far away, so he immediately made a decision.

"Yes!" Mi Zhu bowed and bowed, and he returned to the house and began to prepare his bags. In Mi Zhu's opinion, inviting rescue soldiers for Tao Qian can be regarded as repaying Tao Qian's care.

Just when Mi Zhu was busy packing up his things, someone came to report that Chen Deng had visited. If it was someone else, Mi Zhu would have sent him away, but Chen Deng was his friend, so he had to go out to greet him. However, Chen Dengke didn't wait for Mi Zhu, he came directly to the Mi family hall and asked his subordinates to serve tea, while tasting tea, while waiting!

"Yo! I thought you'd have to keep me waiting! Seeing that Mi Zhu had to come out, a trace of surprise flashed in Chen Deng's eyes.

"Others are easy to dismiss, Brother Yuanlong is visiting in person, how can I be lazy?" Mi Zhu smiled, he already knew Chen Deng's intention.

"Do you have to go?" Chen Deng didn't ask a brainless question.

"Yes!" Of course, Mi Zhu knew what Chen Deng meant, although he was also a little reluctant, but for the sake of the family, he had to make a trade-off.

"Aren't you afraid that I will report you to Tao Envoy?" Chen Deng stared at Mi Zhu with a hideous look on his face.

"You won't!" Mi Zhu smiled: "Don't say that we are friends, just say that you betray me, and you will not do any good!" Besides, the lack of the Mi family in Xuzhou is not a good thing for your Chen family! ”

"Alas!" Chen Deng shook his head and asked, "Then Liu Zhang made you fall in love like this?" ”

"You haven't seen Champion Hou, if you've seen him, you wouldn't ask that!" Chen Deng has always been arrogant and arrogant, thinking that he is a young man and wise. However, everyone's praise for Liu Zhang made him very unconvinced. In the conversation between Ping and Mi Zhu, as long as he encounters something related to Liu Zhang, Chen Deng will criticize Liu Zhang for being useless, in fact, in Chen Deng's heart, he still admires Liu Zhang. Of course, it's more jealousy!

After being silent for a long time, Chen Deng sighed: "I hope we won't become enemies in the future!" ”

"Even if we become enemies, we are friends!" Mi Zhu smiled: "If there is a battle you participate in, I will definitely retreat!" ”

"You want to be Duke Wen of Jin, I don't want to be Duke Qin Mu yet!" Chen Deng said proudly: "Even if we meet on the battlefield, I hope Zizhong will never leave his hand, if I unfortunately lose in your hands, help me take care of the Chen family!" ”

"Good! Me too! Mi Zhu and Chen Deng clasped hands, their eyes were full of reluctance, and they also had the hearts of two teenagers who would never give in.

"Take care all the way!" Chen Deng drifted away, and he didn't even let Mi Zhu say goodbye.

"Take care!" Looking at Chen Deng's back, Mi Zhu's eyes were a little red, and he couldn't help but think of the time when he and Chen Deng knew each other and studied together. However, Mi Zhu is also a resourceful person, but he was stunned for a while, and he returned to normal. With the help of his subordinates, Mi Zhu packed his bags, left Xuzhou City, and headed for Beihai.

On the tower of Xuzhou City, an indifferent figure stood there silently, watching Mi Zhu's carriage gallop to the north, this person was Chen Deng.

"Brother, go all the way!" Watching the carriage go farther and farther, Chen Deng secretly blessed Mi Zhu in his heart, which is a blessing from a friend and a blessing from an opponent!
