"Someone! The messenger sent by Liu Bei was pushed out of the gate and beheaded, and the head was sent to Xuzhou City to show the public! The army is out of camp and immediately launched a siege! ”

"Lord, wait!" As soon as Cao Laoda's words fell, without waiting for the samurai to sing the promise, a person suddenly stood out in the ranks of civilian officials in the left column, twenty-three or four years old, handsome and beautiful like a peerless beauty, but unfortunately his face was sick and thin, and he seemed to be sick as if a gust of wind could blow him down, and this person was none other than the famous Guo Jia Guo Fengxiao.

Guo Jia bowed first, then coughed and opened his mouth to stop: "Lord...... Lord, please calm the wrath of thunder, don't fall for Liu Bei's tricks. ”

"Fengxiao, is your illness getting worse again?" Cao Ying saw that Guo Jia's situation was not good, and hurriedly asked, "Do you want to pass on Langzhong?" ”

"Thank you for your concern, Guo Jia's condition doesn't matter." Guo Jia coughed and said: "Lord, although Guo Jia did not watch Liu Bei's letter, but I heard the lord say that Liu Bei's letter contained sarcasm, Guo Jia already understood Liu Bei's true intentions, and hoped that the lord would take a break from the anger of the thunder, think carefully, and don't fall for Liu Bei's anti-guest strategy." ”

"Sit down and talk, sit down and talk." Cao Ying beckoned Guo Jia to sit down and asked, "What does Feng Xiao mean by this?" How does Liu Bei focus on anti-customer? ”

"Back to the lord, Liu Bei sent a letter to the lord, named the first salute and then the soldier, which is actually anti-guest-oriented, but the person Liu Bei is looking for is not the lord, but Tao Qian." Guo Jia replied: "The lord has annihilated Tao Qian's main force, and the soldiers are under the city of Xuzhou, Tao Qian only has six or seven thousand remnants left, and he will be trapped in the lonely city. ”

"Now Liu Bei led the army into the city, the crowd led by only two or three thousand people, a drop in the bucket, it is difficult to help the big thing, if Liu Bei goes out of the city for a decisive battle, with the strength of our army, it is easy to defeat Liu Bei. And Liu Bei's only way to win is to join forces with Tao Qian to defend the city, and rely on Xuzhou Jiancheng to resist our army. However, Liu Bei used the excuse of rescuing Tao Qian and stationed in Xuzhou, and if he did not fight with our army, he could not explain to Tao Qian and the soldiers and civilians of Xuzhou; directly proposed to join forces with Tao Qian to defend the city, which would make people laugh at him for being timid and cowardly, which would ...... his reputation. ”

"So Liu Bei deliberately provoked me under the pretext of saluting first and then soldiering." Cao Ying quickly came to his senses, patted his forehead and said, "What a deceitful puppet!" If I fall into his trick and immediately attack the city, which not only loses the moral advantage, but also allows Liu Bei Xiaoer to avoid the danger of going out of the city for a decisive battle, Liu Bei Xiaoer can also take the opportunity to join forces with Tao Qian Lao'er to defend the city as an equal, and if he wins, Liu Bei will take the first credit of rescuing Xuzhou, and if he loses, he can also save his military strength and break through calmly, leaving Tao Qian's anger alone! ”

"That's exactly the case, but I think that Liu Bei's move has a deep meaning." Guo Jia nodded, and said: "Liu Bei, Xiaoxiong, I have long cherished the heart of the world, this time it is called rescuing Xuzhou, but it is actually for the land of Xuzhou." If Liu Bei can join forces with Tao Qian to repel the lord, then Tao Qian will inevitably receive Liu Bei with the courtesy, and in order to use Liu Bei's power to keep Xuzhou and prevent our army from going and returning, Tao Qian will try his best to keep Liu Bei, and Liu Bei will also take the opportunity to gain a foothold in Xuzhou with money and grain, Xu and land. ”

"The abacus is good, but Liu Bei Xiao'er, do you have the ability to repel me?" Cao Ying sneered.

"It doesn't matter if you can't retreat, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei will support the left and right, and it is not difficult for Liu Bei to break through in the chaos." Guo Jia smiled and said: "But if we can force our army back, Liu Bei's harvest may be great." Our army has already been reported, Tao Qian's old thief is seriously ill, it is not long, Tao Qian's two sons are notoriously cowardly and loyal, incompetent to the extreme, if Liu Bei with the help of Kong Rong, Tian Kai's power to force our army back, won the first merit of Xuzhou to relieve the siege, and then Tao Qian's old thief suddenly died, Liu Bei is not ......? ”

"What a big appetite." Cao Ying sneered again and asked, "Liu Bei Xiao'er is so deceitful, so in the opinion of filial piety, how should I break it?" ”

"It's not difficult to break Liu Bei." Guo Jia said lightly: "Liu Bei took advantage of the unpreparedness of our army, and luckily entered the city of Xuzhou to join Tao Qian, and his morale was strong, and he immediately attacked the city, even if our army succeeded, it would inevitably suffer heavy casualties." It is better to plan the plan, treat Liu Bei's messenger well, reply to Liu Bei with kind words, be slow and prepared, take advantage of his slack and then suddenly attack the city, and the battle of Xuzhou can be broken. ”

"Wonderful!" Cao Ying applauded and smiled: "Let's let Liu Bei be proud for a moment first, and then kill him and Tao Qian Lao'er together!" Someone came, sent Liu Bei's messenger to the back account, treated him with wine and food, and waited for me to write an answer, and then let him send him back to Xuzhou City. Under the tent, the civil official of Cao Jun sang a promise and took the order to leave.

………………

Thanks to the sick and weak young man Guo Jia Guo handsome guy, our Deputy Director Tao finally barely escaped a catastrophe, when Cao Jun officials invited Deputy Director Tao to the back account for dinner, Deputy Director Tao finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that his bet was right, as long as he escaped the first wave of Cao Ying's monstrous anger, he can basically be said to be safe, and the next thing is to see if that incident will happen, and to consider how to grab as much credit as possible for Xuzhou to break the siege.

Cao Yingtuntian mainly grows corn (millet), so Cao Jun's staple food to entertain Tao Ying is also corn, the dish is very simple, a plate of melon and a plate of meat, and a pot of turbid wine, compared to the rich and prosperous Xuzhou city in the diet is far inferior, but although the dish is simple, Tao Ying eats with relish, is in a good mood, and eats naturally fragrant.

"Here it is! The messenger from Xuzhou is here! ”

Suddenly a roar interrupted Tao Ying's meal, and then, a team of wolf-like Cao soldiers rushed into Tao Ying's military tent, and the first big man saw Tao Ying sitting honestly next to the desk, his expression was first happy, and then he shouted loudly: "Take it!" ”

"Smack!" Tao Ying's bamboo chopstick in his hand fell to the ground, and his face, which had been cultivating the city government in the system for many years, also showed a rare look of shock, and said in his heart: "What's wrong?" Why did Cao Ying entertain me first and then arrest me? ”

The soldiers of the Cao army didn't care what Tao Ying thought, they pounced on Tao Ying and held it down, and the wrist-thick hemp rope fell down, and tied Tao Ying into a strong knot with three strokes and two strokes, and the big man smiled and said: "Good boy, so bold, dare to come here!" After a while, the lord will order the execution, and I Dian Wei must tear you up with my own hands! Take! ”

The soldier sang a promise, dragged Tao Ying up and left, Tao Ying did not resist - it is useless to resist, don't say that this is the Cao army camp, there are tens of thousands of Cao army soldiers, just Dian Wei standing in front of him, can pinch Tao Ying to death with one hand!

Therefore, Tao Ying didn't struggle at all, the nervousness in his mind was just nervous thinking, "Why did Cao Ying send Dian Wei to arrest me?" Has my identity been revealed? It's impossible, if someone in Cao Ying could recognize me, they would have exposed my identity a long time ago, why wait until now? ”

"Isn't it ......!" Thinking about this, Tao Ying suddenly discovered a major mistake in his plan, "Could it be that Tao Qian couldn't hold his breath and sent troops to save my fake son, so it's not simple for Cao Ying to suspect my identity?" But it's still not right, there is no shouting outside the camp? If Tao Qian really sent troops to save me, there should be a commotion outside? ”

"Let's go!" Dian Wei suspected that the soldiers were too slow, reached out an arm thicker than Tao Ying's thigh, grabbed the rope on Tao Ying's body, lifted Tao Ying up like an eagle catching a chicken, and strode to the Chinese army tent where Cao Boss was, Tao Ying was powerless to resist, so he had to pray silently in his heart, begging God to bless Cao Ying for not seeing through his identity.

Dian Wei's footsteps were very fast, just came to the front of the big tent of the Chinese army, Tao Ying didn't even have time to see the appearance of this handsome tent guarded by Cao Jun's heavy soldiers, Dian Wei had already put Tao Ying into the big tent, and then Tao Ying fell heavily to the ground in the middle of the big tent, and bowed his hand to Cao Ying in the middle of the high seat and said: "Lord, this person is Liu Bei's messenger!" ”

Cao Ying didn't answer immediately, Tao Ying, who was smashed, struggled to barely raise his head, but saw that both sides of the big tent were full of Cao Jun's civilian and military generals, and there were two white flags hanging in the middle, and there were four words of revenge and hatred on the flag, and there was a person standing under it, in his forties, dressed in white filial piety clothes, black and short, but his bearing was quite extraordinary, towering like Mount Tai, staring at Tao Ying with his hands behind his back, his eyes were cold, sharp as a front, staring at Tao Ying's heart, and the hairs on his body stood upside down.

"This black dwarf is probably Cao Ying." Tao Ying said to himself in his heart, "What is he going to do when he sends his cronies to arrest me?" ”

"Boy, what's your name?" Cao Ying finally spoke, and asked Tao Ying coldly, "What is your identity?" ”

"Why are you asking me for my name and identity?" Tao Ying oozed cold sweat from his forehead, and faintly guessed that Cao Ying had recognized his identity.

"Answer!" Boss Cao opened his mouth again and drank vigorously, with a majestic bearing.

"Damn! Fight! Tao Ying turned his heart sideways, and said that since Cao Ying's old thief is likely to have recognized Lao Tzu's identity, it is useless for Lao Tzu to report a fake name, and it can also make Cao Ying hate Lao Tzu even more.

Thinking about this, Tao Ying struggled to stand up, bowed slightly to Cao Ying, straightened his waist and replied loudly: "Hui Minggong, Xiaosheng's surname is Tao Mingying, the word Mingwu, the second son of Xuzhou Mu Taoqian, has no official position for the time being." ”

"Sure enough, it's this kid!" A noisy voice sounded in the tent, Cao Jun's civil and military faces were either full of surprise, or his face was happy, and some people gritted their teeth and clenched their fists and shouted, "Okay! Delivered to the door by yourself! Lord, beg the last general to break this child's body into ten thousand pieces and avenge the father-in-law's father! ”

"People say that Tao Qian's second son is cowardly and incompetent, mediocre and useless, it seems that the rumors are wrong." Cao Ying sneered fiercely, and said in a yin voice: "I can't imagine that Tao Qian's son is not only not cowardly, but also very bold, and dares to come to my camp to deliver a letter in person, and throw himself into the net!" It's not a little timid, it's not a little timid! ”

The sweat on Tao Ying's forehead rolled down, his face was as pale as ashes, and he trembled for a long time before he replied, "Ming Gong has won the award, Tao Ying really doesn't dare to take it." ”

"There have been no awards." Cao Ying shook his head, smiled like a cat and a mouse, and asked, "Your father Tao Qian killed my father, and you still dare to come to my camp to deliver a letter, are you not afraid that I will kill you?" ”

"I'm afraid." Tao Ying replied honestly this time.

"If you're afraid, why do you dare to come?" Cao Ying asked with a sneer, trying to resist his urge to tear Tao Ying to pieces with his own hands.

Tao Ying was no longer just in a cold sweat on his forehead, but all over his body, and he was completely at a loss in his heart, not knowing how to answer Cao Ying's question - he couldn't say that he was trying to compete with Liu Bei, so he pretended to be Liu Bei's envoy to Cao Ying, right?

"Why not?" Cao Ying asked again, and at the same time pressed the hilt of the sword with his hand, and slowly pulled out the sword on his waist, the murderous aura on his body, twenty steps away, made Tao Ying's skin like a knife.

"What ......, what should I do?" Tao Ying knew that death was coming, and his heart was even more flustered, and his legs couldn't contain the crazy trembling.

The moment Cao Ying's sword was completely unsheathed, a name suddenly flashed in Tao Ying's mind - Chen Lin! scolded the eighteenth generation of Cao's ancestor to the blood, and finally got Chen Lin, who got an iron rice bowl in Cao's army!

"Back to the Ming Duke, Tao Ying was afraid of death, but he came to the Ming Gong army to deliver a letter, just because of ......." Tao Ying opened his mouth and groaned:

"The name is in the strong man's nationality, he cares about his selfishness in immorality, he sacrifices his life to go to the country, and he sees death as if he were going home! Therefore, Tao Ying is not afraid of death! ”

By the way, the original author of this poem is the son of a certain black dwarf, and this son of the black dwarf is not yet two years old.
