Early the next morning, Guo Jia and the others had already prepared a qiē and set up camp, and Sun Quan ran back as promised and took the initiative to become a proton.

As for Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and others, they didn't come to see off Sun Quan. He also understood that instead of having this time to be sad, it was better to quickly find a way to recover his strength and take down Jiangdong as soon as possible, so that he would come more simply.

Therefore, as early as yesterday, he Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and others had already moved, after all, after the previous battle, the naval army under their command was almost completely wiped out, and only 5,000 infantry remained, and if they wanted to recover their strength in a short time, it would take a certain amount of time.

Xuzhou, Xuzhou City.

After Tao Qian died, this Xuzhou fell into the hands of his son Tao Qian, to say that this pottery merchant is indeed a straw bag, otherwise Tao Qian would not be so troubled by the identity of his heir in the future.

Therefore, in addition to being nominally the lord of Xuzhou, the current potter is half a puppet on the other large Cheng dù, and he has no means at all, and almost all the rights under his hands are controlled by the two major families of Xuzhou, the Cao family and the Chen family.

Originally, there was still this Mi family in Xuzhou to balance these two, but unfortunately, the Mi family where Mi Zhu was located had already gone to Youzhou, and there was no longer half a relationship with Xuzhou, so the power of these two families became stronger and stronger.

Most of the original troops in Xuzhou fell into the hands of Cao Bao of the Cao family, and Tao Qian only had a small half in his hands, and now that Tao Qian is dead, the pottery merchant has no means, so almost ninety percent of the hundreds of thousands of troops in Xuzhou have fallen into the hands of Cao Bao.

Say something nasty. If he, Cao Bao, wants to rebel now, I'm afraid that he only needs an order, and this Xuzhou will change hands on the spot.

As for the Chen family. The old master Chen Si and the current Chen Deng are both good strategists, and they have always been his Tao Qian's brains, and even Cao Bao is a little convinced of Chen Deng. After all, he Cao Bao also knew that he might be able to do it if he led his troops to fight, but if he used his brain or something like that, he still needed to rely on them Chen family, father and son.

And the most important thing is that the current Cao family and the Chen family have already united, and the pottery merchant has completely become a puppet.

Therefore, although Xuzhou today seems to be calm. In fact, the difference is just an opportunity, and now that opportunity has arrived.

Xuzhou, outside Xuzhou. At this moment, countless soldiers and horses are stationed, and from the city wall, there is a dense patch, definitely no less than 200,000. It's just this posture. That's scary enough. And the two people who were the leaders were Cao Cao and Lu Bu.

To talk about this Cao Cao and Lu Bu. Since taking that half of Yangzhou, there has been a great disagreement about the ownership of Yangzhou.

After all, this Yangzhou is such a big piece of cake, whether it is he Cao Cao or Na Lu Bu, no one doesn't want it, if they can get half of Yangzhou, their power will definitely grow upside down.

But the two of them also know very well that there is only half of this Yangzhou, and it is impossible to turn him into two. It's completely unrealistic. In the end, it will still fall into the hands of one person.

If this is changed, it is better to say, after all, there is an agreement between them, whoever attacks Shouchun first, then this half of Yangzhou will belong to whom.

But in the end, this Shouchun can be said to have entered together, and there was no one who came first, so the original agreement was scrapped.

The problem of Yangzhou's return to obedience still upset the two of them. And the people under their hands, looking at this situation, almost all of them had red eyes, why should they give it to others because of the Yangzhou they worked so hard to fight. The smell of gunpowder between the two sides increased for a while, and they almost started fighting.

Cao Cao and Chen Gongna are bitter, the two of them are the clearest people, and they know that they must not be messed up at this time.

What is the purpose of the alliance between the two of them, isn't it just to unite and deal with Liu Yao together, if there is internal strife for this half of Yangzhou now, they will fight first, and I am afraid that before Liu Yao calls, they will already find death.

But just when everyone was at a loss, Na Lu Bu suddenly spoke amazingly, and all the contradictions were resolved.

He only said one sentence angrily: "Isn't it half of Yangzhou, look at Lao Tzu, I will take Xuzhou, let a few of you guys who have no interest have a good experience." ”

Although he Lu Bu said this to mock Cao Cao's subordinates, I have to say that when this word reached the ears of his Cao Cao and Chen Gong, you are like a fairy sound.

That's right, the plan of the two of them is to take advantage of this opportunity to take Xuzhou in one fell swoop, and then both sides will get a piece of land, so it will be fair.

For Chen Gong's opinion, it was supported by almost everyone, especially the fiercest generals who had just quarreled. That Xuzhou is weak, and the combat effectiveness is much worse than that of Yuan Shu, they have just taken Yangzhou, and now their morale is booming, and they can't wait to continue to fight, and this Xuzhou is the best target.

In the end, Cao Cao and Lu Bu discussed, and the formula was reached, and the two sides raised troops together to take Xuzhou directly. At that time, Lü Bu got half of Yangzhou, and Cao Cao got the whole of Xuzhou. After all, the distance between Yanzhou, where Cao Cao is located, and Yangzhou is too far away, if you take Yangzhou, it will be separated by two places, and it will be inconvenient to govern, so he Cao Cao undoubtedly wants Xuzhou.

And the most critical point is that Xuzhou is rich and rich in grain production, and almost every prince covets the territory. As for Yangzhou, don't mention it, although Yangzhou was originally not bad, although it was not as good as Xuzhou, but it was barely eye-catching.

But after the rule and exploitation of Yuan Shu, the current Yangzhou is barren, and it is simply a heaven and a place with Xuzhou, which is completely incomparable. If anyone takes Yangzhou, it will be a loss.

Although Na Lu Bu complained about this, he finally agreed. Of course, that's not unconditional.? The condition is that after Cao Cao gets Xuzhou, he will unconditionally support him with Lu Bu's food and materials and other things.

Cao Cao also agreed to this, after all, there are some sacrifices, if you take advantage unilaterally, I am afraid that this alliance will not be able to continue.

As for this excuse to attack Xuzhou, it is also an open mouth, it can't be simpler.

This time, the imperial court ordered all walks of life to congratulate and raise troops together to crusade against Yuan Shu, and he Cao Cao and Lu Bu both had a move, but this Xuzhou potter did not send troops, and directly detained him with the traitor Yuan Shu, and the conspiracy was fine.

As for the potter's full responsibility for Cao Cao and Lu Bu's allied army's food, this point can be completely selectively forgotten, as long as he Cao Cao doesn't say it, Lu Bu doesn't say it, what's the use of relying on the potter's mouth.

In front of Xuzhou City, Na Lu Bu patted the red rabbit horse, stepped forward, held the Fang Tian painting halberd, and shouted at the city wall, "Well, I came to the East County Taishou Lu Bu, let the potter come out quickly to answer." ”

Now that Xun You is still in Youzhou, he didn't have time to come back, and he Lu Bu didn't know that he was named the Yanzhou Mu, so he still regarded himself as the Taishou of Yidong County.

Immediately, the people on the city wall panicked, although they had already received the news that the army of Cao Cao and Lu Bu was coming towards their Xuzhou side. But no one knows what their intentions are.

After all, you have been to Cao Cao before, and you have borrowed the road from them in Xuzhou, and there is no other action, so most of the Xuzhou soldiers guessed that this time it may be just to borrow the road to go back.

But now this situation is obviously not right, looking at the soldiers and horses below, all of them are hostile, especially Na Lu Bu, who does not hide the killing intent in his eyes at all, and the idiots can see that they are here to find trouble, or even to attack the city, how can they not panic in the face of such a terrifying opponent.

It didn't take long for a few people to come to the city wall, led by the current Xuzhou pottery merchant, and the two people beside him were naturally Cao Bao and Chen Deng.

As soon as they got the news, they rushed to the city wall as fast as possible, after all, he was afraid that Cao Cao's own father would not be able to deal with it, let alone himself, and now with a Lu Bu, if they did it together, his potter would be dead.

He finally got the position of Xuzhou Mu, he hasn't had much time to do it, and he hasn't had time to feel the taste of power, which is about to be taken away by people, how can he not be afraid, how can he not panic.

"The potter has seen Wenhou and Cao Yanzhou, but I don't know what the two of them are doing when they come to my Xuzhou." The potter said in a slightly flattering tone to the two people below.

Listening to the words of the potter, almost everyone in the city showed a sneering smile, and the Xuzhou soldiers on the city wall all blushed and ashamed. Especially the two Cao Bao and the potter, they shook their heads wildly, as if they had eaten ecstasy.

Although they knew that this potter was not very good, his current behavior was really disappointing and shameful.

You must know that his potter is also a Xuzhou pastor, if this is replaced by now, it will be a Xinjiang official, then Cao Cao is just a Yanzhou pastor, and his potter is also the same level, as for that Lu Bu is just a Dongjun Taishou, compared with his potter, it is really too far.

Although the difference in strength between the two sides is indeed not small, it is normal for him to be afraid in his heart. But at least on the surface, it has to be non-condescending.

But now that he was a potter, he spoke to them in a tone that was almost inferior, and his lord was so virtuous, could he still have a face when he was a subordinate? (To be continued......)
