Chapter 112: Brewing a Killing Move
Yang Feng and Han Xian had just surrendered, and Cao Ang naturally couldn't trust these two.
It's just that unlike because of the fear of Lu Bu's bravery, he needs to be separated from the generals, and the abilities of these two people are much inferior, so naturally Cao Ang will not worry too much.
After letting them each lead 5,000 soldiers and leave the other soldiers behind, they boldly let these two people open the way first.
In this way, it not only showed their trust in these two people, gave them a chance to show their skills, but also took back Yang Fenghan Xian's soldiers.
Kill two birds with one stone!
In Xiaqiu City, Cao's army rested for only a few hours, and the army marched slowly again, heading straight to the land of Zhang Xuxu and Xu County, who were fighting with Cao Cao.
This time, Cao Jun's momentum was even greater, with more than 45,000 people!
Everyone knows that as long as Zhang Xu is defeated, Xuzhou will be completely pacified.
Unlike Cao Jun, who wanted to pacify Xuzhou as soon as possible, many people at this time had a more long-term vision and remembered what would happen after Xuzhou was pacified.
"Lingqi, are you feeling unwell? Since the march in Xiaqiu, I have seen that you are listless, and if you are not feeling well, go to the rear carriage to rest for a while. ”
In the Chinese army, Cao Ang looked at Lu Lingqi, who was parallel to him but had a sad face, and his face also showed a little tenderness at this time, and he asked worriedly.
And after hearing such an inquiry, Lu Lingqi also shook her head.
"I'm about to go to Xu County to see my father, Lingqi is still a little apprehensive in her heart, I don't know what she will think of you and me."
Lu Lingqi was given high hopes by Lu Bu and cultivated as a man, but now she is in love with Cao Cao's son, and Lu Lingqi, who understands her father's temperament, is also quite worried.
"Lingqi, don't worry, Wen Hou is ambitious and brave, if he learns that you and I are combined, he will only be happy and excited in his heart, and he will definitely not reject this matter."
This Cao Ang's words are already quite euphemistic, this Lu Bu is not only ambitious, he is already desperate to improve his power.
recognized his father twice and killed his father twice, attacked Cao Cao first and then betrayed Liu Bei, such an unkind and unrighteous behavior was spurned by the world.
After losing Xuzhou this time, it is like a tiger with its teeth extracted, life and death are still unknown, how can he refuse the combination of Cao Ang and Lu Lingqi.
After hearing such words, Lu Lingqi seemed to agree a little, and immediately nodded.
"It's really a lot more relieved to be said by you. What you have gained is good, if we are more affectionate than Jin Jian, if someone stops us, we will definitely be able to overcome them one by one! ”
At the same time, Cao Ang and Lu Lingqi were about to go to Xu County, and they talked about how the combination of the two would attract Lu Bu's attitude.
In another place, the same thing is being discussed.
In the rear of the army, the three brothers Liu Guanzhang who were ordered to be responsible for guarding the surroundings also gathered together at this time, and there was a young man in front of them.
This young man is none other than Xiahou Chong, the son of Xiahou Tun!
"Don't hide it from the three generals, one mountain can't accommodate two tigers, the prime minister takes a fancy to Lu Bu, but the son prefers you, this place of Xuzhou is extremely important, the prime minister of Xiapi Taishou has promised Chen Gui, this East China Sea Taishou you have to fight, don't let Lu Bu sit on it!"
When there was no one around, Xiahou Chong's words were also quite bold, and he spoke directly to the three of them.
After such words were spoken, Zhang Fei Guan Yu didn't feel anything, but Liu Bei's eyebrows immediately raised, as if he was not satisfied with such words.
"General, what do you mean by that? Could it be that what the son promised before was invalidated? ”
This Xiahou Chong is the son of Xiahou Chong, and he is also the general around Cao Ang, and his appearance at this time naturally represents Cao Ang himself.
So after hearing him say that he wanted to compete with Lu Bu for the position of Taishou in the East China Sea, Liu Bei immediately felt a chill in his heart.
Could it be that this Cao Ang is planning to use a position of Taishou in the East China Sea to eliminate his hatred with Lu Bu?
When such words were spoken, Xia Hou smiled immediately, and his words were much colder, and finally reminded him faintly.
"General Xuande, what my son-in-law means is that while competing for the position of the Taishou of the East China Sea, Lu Bu will be eliminated as well!"
Before, Cao Ang promised to help Liu Bei get rid of Lu Bu, which made Liu Guanzhang and the others return to their hearts, and now that Yuan Shu's danger is about to be resolved, Cao Ang naturally got down to business.
After hearing such words, Liu Bei's face softened.
"Since this is the case, then Xuande naturally won't object, but does this Cao Gongzi already have a plan?"
Xiahou Chong, as Cao Ang's confidant, suddenly came over at this time to make himself the Taishou of the East China Sea, Liu Bei was still a little confused, but at this time he still asked tentatively.
Seeing that Liu Bei was not rejected, the corners of Xiahou Chong's mouth also showed a little smugness, and then he hurriedly spoke.
"Exactly! Prime Minister Cao Cheng has already made a promise that no matter who breaks through Zhang Xun's main formation, he will be the Taishou of the East China Sea. This move seems to reward military merits, but in fact, it is arranging a way back for Lu Bu. ”
"This Lu Bu is ambitious, and he doesn't approve of my son-in-law and Miss Lingqi, so please borrow Xuande's hand......"
Although the last few words were not spoken, Liu Bei was not stupid, so he naturally guessed what he meant.
After hearing such words, Liu Bei's heart immediately moved, if this is the case, maybe this is also his chance to make a comeback!
It's just that he is cautious and cautious, and although he is extremely excited at this time, he still doesn't look too concerned.
"General Xiahou Chong smiled, Prime Minister Cao Cheng's side is like a cloud, and now Gongzi has subdued Yang Feng and Han Xian, and they each command the army, how can such a good thing be my turn Liu Xuande."
This Cao Ang actually wanted to kill Lu Bu for Lu Lingqi!
This was something Liu Bei didn't expect, whether it was Cao Ang's plan for himself or whether he really planned to do so, Liu Bei did not hastily agree.
Just because he knows his current ability, although Zhang Fei and Guan Yu help him, if he really wants to stand out among the generals around Cao Cao, it is absolutely impossible to do it.
It is precisely because of this that if this Cao Ang needs to borrow his Liu Bei's hand to kill Lu Bu, he must also give him the corresponding power!
After saying a word, Xiahou immediately understood Liu Bei's thoughts, and added at this time.
"Don't worry, the general will replenish three thousand soldiers for you at that time, and he will personally rush into battle to help, the general only needs to take advantage of the chaos to kill Zhang Xun and Lu Bu!"
After hearing such words, the corners of Liu Bei's mouth showed a faint smile.
