Yang Zhao arrived in Jibei, but his troops in Anyang did not retreat.

Not only did Anyang not retreat, but the soldiers of the plains were also pressed on the border of Qinghe, and there was a feeling that they were going to attack Jizhou again at any time, which made Yuan Shao restless.

The strategists around him all knew that Yang Zhao was deliberately creating pressure on Yuan Shao in order to gain more benefits in the next negotiations, but they really couldn't bear this kind of pressure.

But at this time, Yang Zhao's letter arrived.

It was Yuan Shao who invited them to go directly to Jibei for talks to discuss post-war issues.

"Jibei?"

"No, you can't go to Jibei, let someone tell Yang Zhao right away and let him change places."

Yuan Shao directly refused.

What are you kidding, the surrounding area of Jibei is all Yang Zhao's garrison, in case Yang Zhao is ruthless, he goes, and he will come back? Can only be sent to death!

Definitely can't go to Jibei.

Yuan Shao said again: "It's best to go to one, there is no dispute between us and there is no place where the garrison is stationed." ”

Xu You had no choice but to send the news to Yang Zhao and change the location of the meeting.

——

While Yang Zhaobing pressed Jizhou, he also pressed from Langya County to Xuzhou.

Tao Qian found that the Qingzhou soldiers gathered at the border of Langya and entered the East China Sea at any time, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly asked people to ask how the situation was, but the person who went to inquire brought him a message back.

Go to Jibei to participate in post-war talks.

"Envoy, don't go to Jibei!"

Zhao Yu's thoughts were similar to Yuan Shao's, and he said: "Jibei is under Yang Zhao's control, if the envoy goes, what he wants to do ruthlessly will never go back!" ”

Tao Qian frowned, this is indeed the truth.

Chen Deng echoed: "Jibei really can't go, I believe that Yuan Benchu and others don't dare to go to Jibei, we can propose to change the location, and then wait for the news." ”

Tao Qian adopted this suggestion, thought about it and said, "But what about Yang Zhao's soldiers in the Langya Suppression Realm? ”

Cao Bao said in a loud voice: "I will lead the troops to confront them!" ”

"I don't think there's a need for a confrontation!"

At this time, Lu Zhu said: "Yang Envoy Jun did this, the purpose is just to increase the pressure on the envoy, and he should not send troops to attack Xuzhou again, and when we agree to the conditions he proposed, we will naturally withdraw the troops." ”

"Makes sense, too!"

Tao Qian thought for a moment in his heart and sighed: "Let's do it like this first!" ”

No matter how much they confront, their Xuzhou soldiers, in front of the weapons of the Qingzhou soldiers, are nothing, the difference between confrontation and non-confrontation is not very big, and it can be ignored.

——

Jibei.

"My lord, Yuan Shao doesn't agree to come to Jibei."

Li Ru got the letter, presented it to Yang Zhao, and said: "He wants to find a place where we have no dispute and there is no dispute between the two sides." ”

Yang Zhao opened the letter and read it for a while, and said with a smile: "Yuan Shao's proposal is interesting. ”

"He's just afraid of death!"

Guo Jia also came, and then said: "Cao Mengde also replied, he said that he had no opinion, but Tao Xuzhou didn't want to come to Jibei, and wanted us to talk in another place, what does the lord think?" ”

Yang Zhao directly agreed: "Then change it, since they are afraid of death, how about changing it to Yuzhou?" ”

Li Ru shook his head and said: "Sun Ben, the assassin of Yuzhou, is a protégé of the Yuan family, he can be this assassin history, and he is also appointed by Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao may not dare to mess around at that time, but Yuan Shu may not be necessarily." ”

They were worried that Yuan Shu would intercept and kill Yang Zhao directly in Yuzhou.

Yang Zhao thought for a moment and said: "Just go to Xuzhou, I don't believe it, Tao Gongzu still dares to do something to me in Xuzhou, how about it?" ”

Guo Jia and Li Ru thought for a while, and at the same time nodded in agreement, thinking that Xuzhou was feasible and would not be in danger.

Tao Qian definitely didn't dare to mess around.

So Yang Zhao set the location in Xuzhou and sent the news out.

When Tao Qian got the news, he hesitated for a moment, and directly agreed, and negotiated peace on his own territory, without thinking about security issues, and immediately replied to Yang Zhao.

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao also agreed and prepared to set off for Xuzhou.

Yang Zhao learned that Xu Chu had returned to Qingzhou, so he transferred him and Huwei over and asked them to accompany him on this trip.

Yuan Shao was afraid of death, did not dare to cross the river in Baima, first went to Hanoi, and then crossed the river to Yuzhou, through the whole territory of Yuzhou, from the south of Yanzhou to Xuzhou, although the road was far away, but along the way you could avoid the place where Yang Zhao garrisoned.

Cao Cao is much simpler, go directly to Xuzhou, there is no need to think about it so complicated.

Yang Zhao's way to Xuzhou is also very simple, but he has to borrow the road in Yanzhou, not from Langya to the south, which is relatively far, and he happened to meet Cao Cao in Peiguo.

"Thank you Mengde, don't send troops to attack me, so that I can take a breath." When Yang Zhao saw Cao Cao, he said first.

"Fortunately, I chose not to send troops, otherwise the entire Yanzhou would be handed over to you."

Cao Cao laughed, but behind the smile, there was something unnatural, probably envy and jealousy of Yang Zhao.

When he came to Xuzhou, he didn't bring only a few people, there were more than 2,000 people around him, and he had to ensure safety.

Yang Zhao waved his hand and said: "Even if Meng De gives it to me, I won't ask for it, all the counties I have fought will be returned, Meng De is very good to me, and I can't be bad with you, by the way, you also gave me a sword back then, and I will return your county, that's all." ”

Hearing this, Cao Cao's lips moved, and he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end.

Xi Zhong, who was following him, narrowed his eyes and looked at the Yitian Sword in Yang Zhao's hand, probably understanding what he meant.

You give me a sword, and I return you to the county, and there will be no more arrears.

If there is a next time, it is impossible to return the place where I fell, and it will be an enemy to meet again.

Cao Cao naturally heard such an obvious hint, but did not expose it, and they quickly left the matter behind them, chatting and going to Xiapi.

When they arrived near Xiaopei, it was already evening, so they were not in a hurry to leave, but first found a place to rest and walked directly to the nearest village, because there was flat land there to camp.

The people of the village, when they saw the approaching army, were terrified, fearing that the soldiers would plunder them.

There were also some less timid villagers, whose legs were weak, fell to the ground, and they were so frightened that they couldn't walk.

"Zhongkang, stay outside the village, don't disturb the people."

Yang Zhao instructed: "Without my order, no one is allowed to enter the village, and no one is allowed to destroy the crops in the fields. ”

"Yes!"

Xu Chu said loudly.

Cao Cao admired: "Mingguang governs the army strictly, we can't wait far less, did Yuan Rang hear it?" ”

"I heard you!"

Xiahoudun said in a loud voice: "Without an order, who dares to enter the village to interfere with the people, destroy the crops, and behead!" ”

Their orders were handed down, and the soldiers on both sides set up camp outside the village, which was open enough for more than 3,000 men to be stationed without the need to occupy arable land.

Night.

Yang Zhao ate something, went to be polite with Cao Cao, and after chatting for a while, he went back to his camp to rest.

"Who?"

A tiger guard let out an angry shout, directly shocking an approaching figure outside.
