It's no wonder that the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang sneered, although they didn't know what kind of friendly troops Tao Qian and Cao Hong had found, and although they didn't know what the other party's combat strength was, but looking at the entire Han Dynasty, there were not many troops that could fight with the three of them and the soldiers and horses under them.

Unless Tao Qian can move Dong Zhuo from Liangzhou, or Yuan Shao and Cao Cao from the south, he may be able to stay with their brothers for a long time, and the rest of the small characters are just sent to death even if they come.

Cao Hong felt that it was a savior's army, but it was not a fart in the eyes of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

……

……

The army galloping from a distance also attracted the attention of Liu Jian and Li Gu.

Li Gu's face seemed to be a little nervous: "My lord, it seems that Tao Qian not only found someone to come to preside over the axioms, but also invited reinforcements to help." ”

Liu Jian said very easily: "Captain Li, don't worry, although you are proficient in swordsmanship, and now you are presiding over the affairs of the school affairs in the southeast, but for the frontal use of troops on this battlefield, you still know very little about our army and the other army, looking at the warlord forces in Xuzhou, no matter who comes here to support Tao Qian, in front of our army, it is just a leaf in the wind, and it is not worth it at all." ”

"Besides, whether the army that came this time is here to help Tao Qian, it's still uncertain."

When Li Gu heard this, he was silent.

Obviously, Liu Jian's last sentence made Li Gu unable to figure it out.

The front-line school government sent people out, accompanied by the envoys from all walks of life in Xuzhou, to meet the heroes of Xuzhou, including Liu Xuan, Kong Rong, Zhao Yu, Ying Shao and others, all of whom were asked by Liu Jian to pass the message on behalf of the envoys......

It's just that except for these people, the rest of the local powerful warlord forces, such as Zhen Rong, Que Xuan, Xiao Jian and others, Liu Jian just sent someone to send them a secret letter.

As for the specific content of the letter, Li Gu's school affairs are unknown, they are only responsible for delivering the letter, so no one knows what Liu Jian said about these people......

Therefore, at present, these people are leading soldiers and horses to Xuzhou, what is their position and attitude, I am afraid that only Liu Jian knows in his heart.

……

Soon, I saw that the army was approaching Tancheng, and looking at the other party's banner, it was the two great powers of Xuzhou - Zhenrong and Que Xuan.

Seeing their flags, Cao Hong on the city wall suddenly looked happy.

Liu Bei's eyes narrowed, and then he glanced at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei immediately understood.

Then he saw that the two brothers rode backwards, and the army after the change became the front army, so that the soldiers of the three armies went backwards.

Zhao Jun is specifically responsible for the dispatch of troops and horses in the formation.

Soon, he saw Guan Yu rushing from the rear to the front, he came to the front of the formation, stood on the horse, and then pulled the reins of the horse hard, allowing the two front hooves of the war horse to be raised high, making a burst of neighing sounds.

The troop stopped not far from Guan Yu.

Guan Yu raised the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, pointed at the two people in front of him, and said loudly: "Who are you?" Why is it here? ”

Then Que Xuan immediately rode forward, and said respectfully to Guan Yu on the horse: "This general is suspicious, we are not here to be enemies of Xuande Gong, we are just representing the local tycoons of Xuzhou, hanging the people and cutting down the crime, and come to ask Tao Qian!" Please also ask the general to make it convenient and allow me to go to Tancheng. ”

Guan Yu never expected that the other party would say this, he looked Que Xuan up and down, as if he was considering the authenticity of the other party's words.

Behind Que Xuan is another local tyrant in Xuzhou who has armed forces.

Zhen Rong acted more directly than Que Xuan.

He twitched the horsewhip, let the horse come forward, and threw a human head under Guan Yu's horse's hooves.

Zhen Rong bowed his hand to Guan Yu very respectfully: "General, please look, this head represents our sincerity, this is Cao Bao's head!" ”

"This person got Tao Qian's instructions, and wanted to lead his troops back to Tancheng to be the enemy of Xuande Gong, I intercepted and killed this person with Que Gong halfway, cut off his head, and accepted his people, I hope the general will tell Xuande Gong about this, and we are not here to be an enemy of Xuande Gong."

Guan Yu didn't know if the head in front of him was Cao Bao's, but he didn't know it, Liu Bei definitely knew it.

I don't think this person would lie about it.

So, Guan Yu immediately ordered someone to send the head to Liu Bei and ask Liu Bei to identify it.

After a while, he saw Liu Bei coming with Zhang Feike, he looked at Zhen Rong and Que Xuan, and arched his hand and said: "This is Liu Bei, I don't know what the two heroes are leading the troops here for?" ”

Que Xuan said loudly: "Xuande Gong! Tao Qian is a despicable villain, acting without a form, angering the way of heaven, the people of Xuzhou are in dire straits under his rule, miserable, this thief cronies villain Cao Hong, troubled Xuzhou, offended Cao Cao, and even made a faint move, resulting in a misery in Xuzhou. ”

"There are many displaced people, and this is Tao Qian's sin."

"It's just that this matter has nothing to do with Xuande Gong, and I ask Xuande Gong not to get involved in this matter."

When Liu Bei heard this, he was very surprised.

But he quickly regained his composure and looked at Zhang Fei and Guan Yu: "Two virtuous brothers, since this matter is a private matter between Que, Ergong and Tao Qian, then let's not get involved too much, and also bother the two virtuous brothers to greet those people under Shicai City, let's temporarily evacuate Tancheng." ”

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei received the order, so they saw Liu Bei's 3,000 men, as well as Kong Rong, Ying Shao, Zhang Chao, Zhao Yu and others slowly evacuated Tancheng.

Cao Hong and the potter were overjoyed when they saw this situation.

They didn't react at first, thinking that they were going to have to go through a fierce fight.

I didn't know what Guan Yu and Zhen Rong said, and then Liu Bei passed over again.

Subsequently, Liu Bei's soldiers and horses, as well as those in the city who were inclined to Liu Bei, left Tancheng.

Tao Ying said excitedly to Cao Hong: "It's still Cao Gong's foresight and preparations!" Everyone in the world said that Liu Bei was good at fighting, and when I saw it today, it was just some boasting, and when I met the soldiers and horses of Zhenrong and Que Xuan, they were all afraid of this, if Cao Bao's soldiers and horses came back, wouldn't Liu Bei pee his pants? ”

Cao Hong didn't expect that things would be solved so easily.

However, Tao Ying can say this, which also makes Cao Hong very happy and proud.

But when he saw him, he laughed and said: "Now that Liu Bei has retreated, today's disaster will be solved......

Before Cao Hong finished his complacency, he heard an earth-shattering horn suddenly sound under the city.

Immediately afterwards, I saw Que Xuan, and the soldiers and horses of the two people were displayed under Tancheng.

Then I saw Zhen Rong pointing to Cao Hong above the city, and said loudly: "Cao Hong, where is Tao Qian?" Let him come and see me quickly! ”

Zhu Rong's words were very polite, and the people in the city and the city couldn't help but feel a little chill in their hearts when they heard it.

After all, this Zhenrong is not a good person.

He was brutal but believed in Buddhism and made great contributions to the development of Buddhism in China.

Defected to Tao Qian, supervised the transportation of grain in the three counties in the south of Xuzhou, but secretly took a large number of materials as his own accumulated financial resources, so he worshiped Buddha on a large scale in the south of Xuzhou, built a luxurious Buddhist temple, cast a gold and bronze Buddha, dressed in brocade, and held a bathing Buddha festival, attracting more than 10,000 believers.

Although he is a force of his own, he can still be regarded as Tao Qian's subordinate.

However, after Cao Cao invaded the southern part of Xuzhou, the power of Zhenrong was also squeezed a lot, according to Tao Qian and Cao Hong's views, Xiapi and Pengcheng were occupied by Cao Cao and Yuan Shao respectively, and the power of Zhenrong was greatly reduced.

But today, listening to his attitude of shouting under the city, it seems that this is not the case.

Tao Qian had recovered a little at this moment, and when he heard Zhen Rong's shout, he saw him supporting his body hard, wanting to go to the edge of the city wall.

Hua Tuo hurriedly looked at Tao Qian and shook his head.

Obviously, Hua Tuo didn't want Tao Qian to continue to deal with these mundane affairs.

If he continues like this, Tao Qian will definitely die.

But obviously, the current Tao Qian is not afraid of death.

The anger in his heart was now enough to smooth out everything else!

Even if it's his life.

Tao Qian called for someone to help him up and go to the city wall.

His eldest son, the potter, apparently saw that something was wrong.

He hurriedly came to Tao Qian's side, and said to Tao Qian tremblingly: "Father, otherwise, let's not hold on, the child is not good at the fusion of people, let's ...... We don't have many soldiers and horses in Tancheng, otherwise, let's reconcile with Liu Bei, right? Let's admit our mistakes to Liu Bei, maybe, maybe he can help us ......"

"Bastard!"

Tao Qian was trembling by Tao Shang's words: "Since things have come to this point, how can you still retreat?" Now it's a knife on top of our heads, and we can't take half a step back! ”

After saying that, he saw Tao Qian stretch out his hand, push away the potter, and came to the edge of the city wall.

"Zhenrong, Tao is here!"

Zhen Rong saw Tao Qian standing at the head of the city and laughed.

He arched his hand at Tao Qian: "Tao Envoy, I haven't seen you for a long time, I have visited the envoy!" ”

"See?"

Tao Qian sneered and said: "Hugh wants to say those meaningless words, who are you, the old man knows best?" It's a pity that the old man believed you, so that the grain route of the three armies to Tancheng was lost, and you sat big out of thin air, why, you are taking advantage of the old man's danger today, and the old man's foundation is not successful? ”

Zhen Rong shook his head and said, "Tao Envoy Jun is not right, Zhen Mou and Que Gong are here today for the sake of the people of Xuzhou!" ”

"Although Tao envoy Jun is the chief of Xuzhou, but during his tenure, he does not cultivate virtue and politics, stay away from the virtuous, close to the villain, and is the culprit who leads to the unwarranted disaster of millions of people in Xuzhou, you are old, can not preside over the affairs of Xuzhou, today I am here, it is a soldier to make Jun give up Tancheng, resign and return to his hometown, and the imperial court appointed Xian can to Xuzhou to preside over the overall situation, in order to save Xuzhou people!"

Que Xuan shouted beside him: "Tao Qian, if you know each other, hurry up and come out of the city and go back to your hometown in Danyang County!" ”

Tao Qian's whole body trembled, and his eyes were blood-red.

The potter and Tao Ying also lost their luster and trembled.

Cao Hong looked at the scene in front of him in despair.

At this moment, he finally felt that he was really a clown.

Tao Qian shouted: "The old man doesn't resign, what can you do?" ”

"Then I'm going to attack the city!"
