Chapter VI Negotiations
Lu Chen asked someone to escort Cao Ren over, after all, Cao Ren was a fierce general, and Lu Chen didn't dare to untie him like he did with Guo Jia, Lu Chen just asked him to take out the cloth from Cao Ren's mouth.
Lu Chen asked Cao Rendao: "I don't know why General Zixiao is coming?" ”
Cao Ren originally planned to ignore Lu Chen, who had insulted him, but remembering Cao Cao's entrustment, he saw Guo Jia's wolf bèi eating at this time, and only thought that Guo Jia hadn't eaten yesterday. Cao Ren couldn't bear to burden Guo Jia, so he said: "Sikong asked me to tell you that if you let Mr. Fengxiao go, Sikong will let Lu Bu come back." ”
Lu Chen said: "Sure enough, this is the case, I have already guessed it." Actually, I just wanted to ask how my father's injuries are now, to be honest. ”
Cao Ren snorted coldly and said, "Sikong sent the best healer to treat Wen Hou, Wen Hou is still in a coma, but his life has been saved. ”
Lu Chen naturally didn't believe that his father could get through the dangerous period so quickly, Cao Ren's words were not true, but it was certain that his father was not dead, and Cao Cao really sent someone to heal him with his heart. Lu Chen knew that his father's injury was too serious, and if he changed back to his father at this time, he would definitely not have enough doctors and medicinal materials to ensure his father's safety, and he would have to travel long distances next, and he was afraid that his seriously injured father would make his father's injury worse.
He couldn't ask much from Cao Ren's mouth, Lu Chen asked someone to take Cao Ren down and take care of him, this is a martial artist, so naturally he can't run around like Guo Jia. It is undeniable that Lu Chen was able to take Guo Jia, a captive, around without tying or torture, because he was trying to do something about him, although this attempt seemed difficult to achieve.
What was the most expensive in the Three Kingdoms era? Talent!
Guo Jia is undoubtedly one of the top talents in the late Han Dynasty, and he is not inferior to Zhuge Zhou Yu and others. Sun Ce had Zhou Yu, so he achieved Eastern Wu, Liu Bei entangled Zhuge to death, which created Western Shu, and Guo Jia is undoubtedly the biggest contributor to Cao Cao's unification of the north, and there is no one.
sent Cao Ren away, Lu Chen dictated, and asked Lu Zhan to write a letter to Cao Cao in silk cloth, and the negotiations officially began.
Lu Chen said in the letter, Cao Ren, a general who has lost all his military divisions, not only will you Cao Apu not only punish him, but also reuse him to make him an envoy, which is too pampered. I tied Cao Ren to help you teach you a lesson, don't be too grateful to me, please call me Lei Feng. Then, Lü Chen said that he was going to take his soldiers and horses and his family to Hanoi to join Zhang Yang, but Lü Bu was too injured to be too tired to travel and travel, so he let him recuperate in Xiapi, and Lü Chen now only planned to exchange Cao Ren for Gao Shun and Chen Gong. After Lu Bu recovered from his injuries, Cao Cao sent someone to Hanoi to find Lu Chen to exchange Lu Bu for Guo Jia, of course, if Lu Bu died, Guo Jia would naturally not survive. In addition, Lu Chen also said at the end of the letter that in line with the principle of peace, this Xuzhou will be given to Cao Agui, but he wants to move, I am afraid that there will be not enough manpower, and I hope that Cao Cao will return the soldiers in the trapped camp, and the families of Zhang Liao and Cao Xing and other generals will also be sent.
At first, Guo Jia, who was eating breakfast, was still listening, but then he left with a bowl, probably because he felt that it affected his appetite.
Although Lu Zhan wrote tremblingly, Lu Chen was very satisfied with the letter, and asked Cao Xing to shoot the letter up the city tower from afar. He had just tied up Cao Ren, and of course he couldn't be stupid enough to send someone to deliver the letter.
After a while, Cao Jun also shot down a letter from the city tower, and Cao Cao no longer seemed to believe in Lu Chen's character.
Originally, Cao Cao thought that Lu Chen had tied up Guo Jia and used a trick to surrender, which was not moral, at best, he was not tired of deception. Therefore, he sent a messenger to make peace according to common sense, and in order to show that he attached great importance to it, he sent his cousin Cao Ren to go, where would he have thought that Lu Chen would be so unsophisticated? Even the envoys are tied? It's crazy! To be honest, Cao Cao's intestines are now about to repent.
The reply was written by Cao Cao, who was willing to let Lu Chen leave and send back the families of Zhang Liao and Cao Xing, but would not send back the soldiers who had already surrendered. As for the exchange of Chen Gong and Gao Shun first, he said that these two people had already surrendered, and like those soldiers who had fallen into the camp, they were not in the exchange ranks. Only after Lu Chen went to Hanoi, he sent someone to exchange Lu Bu, who had recovered from his injuries, for Guo Jia and Cao Ren.
In fact, Cao Cao gritted his teeth with hatred, this Lu Bu's stupid son is not stupid, knowing that it is difficult for Lu Bu to be cured after exchanging Lu Bu now, not to mention, it is difficult for them to break through, so they even asked to go to Hanoi first, so that Cao Cao sent someone to cure Lu Bu and then go to replace him. But in order to exchange for Guo Jia and Cao Ren, he had to agree to some of Lu Chen's requests.
After reading Cao Cao's letter, Lu Chen sneered in his heart, he believed that others had surrendered to the enemy, but Chen Gong and Gao Shun would rather die than surrender to Cao Cao.
Lü Chen replied that he respected Cao Cao's opinion, and those who had already surrendered were not in the exchange ranks. also said that Guo Jia was impressed by his domineering spirit, bowed his head, and had surrendered to him, so Guo Jia also became his Lu Chen's person, not in the exchange ranks, and Cao Cao could only exchange Lu Bu for Cao Ren in the future. In addition, he also asked Cao Cao to order the counties under his rule to provide grain and grass for Lu Chen and his party, if there was nothing to eat at that time, he could only barbecue Cao Ren.
In addition, Lu Chen wrote another letter to Lu Bu, asking him to recuperate with peace of mind. As for Chen Gong Gaoshun, there was no letter, he knew that he couldn't hand it over to those two people if he wrote it.
Cao Cao replied to Lu Chen's request, but said that the war was chaotic, and it would take time for the order to be issued, and it would also take time to find the family of Zhang Cao's second general.
The means of communication are too backward, and the things that can be clarified with a few phone calls have taken a morning in this era, and by the time the letter negotiations between Lu Chen and Cao Cao have come to an end temporarily, it is already almost noon. Zhang Liao went to patrol the camp, Cao Xing went to send people to investigate the movements and information of Cao's army, Guo Jia rubbed the horse manure on his body with snow in the distance, Lu Zhan prepared lunch for Lu Chen, and Lu Chen was the only one left in the big tent.
Kneeling was too torturous, Lu Chen simply used a few cases as a bench, although it was a little shorter, but it was okay. Sitting on a few cases, Lu Chen was holding his chin in a daze.
Lu Chen found that except for kidnapping Guo Jia and Cao Ren, he did a good job of doing the rest of the things, and as a traverser, he still underestimated the wisdom of the ancients. After capturing Guo Jia, the best way was to go directly to Lu Bu, but unfortunately he underestimated Cao Cao, and when Lu Bu was injured and captured, Lu Chen was even more passive.
Lu Chen has no better way now, so he can only take the team to Hanoi to join his father's old friend Zhang Yang. The more minutes you stay in Xiapi City, the more variable it becomes, and Cao Cao's treachery is famous. Lu Chen is not very confident, he thinks that he is a little sling in the future, it is impossible to be the opponent of the eloquent Cao Bald, and the capture of Guo Jia and the capture of Lu Bu by Cao Cao is the best proof.
Cherish life and stay away from Cao Cao! You must know that most of the heroes of the Three Kingdoms were killed by this bald man!
The reason why Lu Chen didn't leave immediately was to wait for Cao Cao to send Zhang Liao's family members, and for Cao Cao to order to open the passage for Lu Chen to go west. Without Cao Cao's order to let him go, he Lu Chen would not be able to go anywhere.
But the problem now is that although Cao Cao has now agreed to let him go, he is secretly delaying again. This made Lu Chen worried, but he couldn't do anything.
"Xiao Junhou, Madame asked me to wait for Xiao Junhou to bring a fur coat."
At this moment, a dozen or so servants outside the tent stood outside, and the leader was holding a large wooden box in his hand.
Raising his eyelids, Lu Chen saw that the servants were slowly entering the account, he stretched his waist, stood up, and said with a smile: "Did Mrs. eat the osmanthus cake sent to Mrs. in the morning?" ”
The man at the head came with the box in his hand and replied, "Madame has eaten it, and she says it is very delicious." ”
Where did the osmanthus cake come from in the wilderness? Even if there is osmanthus cake in this era, Lu Chen doesn't know, let alone that he hasn't sent anything to his mother today. However, now these guys are answering very smoothly, no problem!
What first aroused Lu Chen's suspicion was that it took ten people to send a coat? And if you want to send it, you should send it, right? When will the servants be able to contact their relatives? Besides, these guys just reported it, and without waiting for Lu Chen to answer, they got in, and no one could not doubt it.
Lu Chen didn't panic, he kicked out a few cases from a distance of one zhang from the servants, and then while the other party was dodging, Lu Chen turned over and pulled out a sword from the weapon rack. The servants had already shown their weapons and pounced, but Lu Chen did not fight against them, but ran to the edge of the tent, slashed open the tent with a sword, and quickly drilled out.
"There are assassins!"
After yelling, several servants had already followed behind Lu Chen, and Lu Chen cut one of them and ran away. I can't fight hard with this kind of guy, and Lu Chen may not be able to fight, there are many people on the other side, and Cao Ren has also changed his clothes and mixed in it, his martial arts are not low.
Cao Ying.
The order ordering all parts of Yanzhou to release Lu Chen's subordinates has been written, but it has not yet been issued, and Zhang Liao's family members have also been found, and they are also not ready to send it. Drag it out as long as you can, this is Cao Cao's plan.
Cao Cao was eating now, but he didn't have much appetite, and when he thought of Lu Chen's child, he felt disgusted, and this meal was extremely painful. At this moment, an even more disgusting guy came, his name was Liu Bei.
Cao Cao retched, couldn't eat it at all, simply threw away the dishes and chopsticks, kicked off his shoes, ran out of the hall barefoot to greet him, and said that he was taking a nap just now. Liu Bei's face suddenly flushed, as if he was a tide like Gao, and he was sorry for disturbing Cao Cao's spring dream, and he was grateful for Lord Sikong's attention, and he even forgot to wear his shoes. But Liu Bei said in his heart, he still takes a nap in winter, so why don't you lie to your father? Also, do you have the smell of your feet? Cao Cao enthusiastically took Xuandegong's hand and entered the door, shushed the cold and asked for warmth, and praised Liu Xuande's few advantages, but said in his heart, let you disgust Lao Tzu, I can't kill you.
At the beginning, Cao Cao was quite serious about Liu Bei, of course, his favorite was Guan Yu, this guy was not from a good background, but his martial arts and courage were good, and he was also very handsome, cough cough, this is not the point. When the coalition forces crusaded against Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao threw flattering eyes several times and hinted that he wanted to recruit Liu Bei into his command, but Liu Bei was not a small sufferer, he was the same as Cao Cao, he liked it, so naturally he would not defect to Cao Cao.
These things, at best, only made Cao Cao jealous of Liu Bei, and he was far from hateful. However, later Liu Bei instigated Tao Qian to resist Cao Cao and won Xuzhou, and Cao Cao really hated Liu Bei.
