Tao Qian thought so, and nodded directly in agreement.

"Okay, since the young general has spoken, then the old man will not shirk, this time Uncle Huang and Fengxian, the grain and grass for the two of you to go out to Yuanshu will all come from my Xuzhou!"

After receiving Tao Qian's reply, Lu Bu's face softened a lot.

"In that case, thank you for being here! Cloth, drink this cup to the brim! Lu Bu said, and directly drank the wine in his glass.

Zhang Fei pouted at Lu Bu, he and Lu Bu were both good drinkers, so he knew that Lu Bu just couldn't help but want to drink it when he saw the wine.

You can't let this kid Lu Bu monopolize these fine wines!

Zhang Fei thought about it, and also picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

Liu Bei saw Zhang Fei drinking glass after glass of wine there, and he couldn't help but glance at his third brother.

Guan Yu instantly understood his eldest brother's eyes, so he stabbed Zhang Fei: "Third brother, don't be greedy, there will be business to do later!" ”

When Zhang Fei heard this, he asked in a low voice: "Second brother, what is the matter, did you sneak attack Lu Bu?" ”

Guan Yu shook his head helplessly when he heard this, and responded in a low voice: "What, Tao Qian agreed to distribute the grain and grass, and when we leave here later, we will naturally take it directly." ”

"That's right, that's right!" Zhang Fei nodded hurriedly and put the wine glass down.

As for Lu Bu, he rode here alone, and naturally he couldn't take away those grain and grass baggage, so he directly asked Tao Qian to send someone to send the grain and grass baggage allocated to him to Xiapi.

Seeing that the matter between Liu Bei and Lu Bu was resolved, Liu Qi looked at Cao Ang expectantly: "Young General, I don't know what I can do to please Yuan?" ”

Cao Ang smiled when he heard this: "There are many things you can do, such as convincing your father to take the initiative!" ”

"This ...... At this time, I am afraid that it will be difficult, my father is iron-hearted, wants to defend, and refuses to take the initiative. Liu Qi shook his head and said that he was afraid that he would not be able to do this.

"There's nothing difficult to do at this time, after you go back, just say that I said, let your father attack Yuzhang County from Jiangxia and Changsha, and my army will attack Lujiang County from Geyang and Anfeng."

"I'm attracting Yuan Shu's army from the front, he sneaks up from behind, there are only benefits, no harm, and you tell him again, if he takes down that county, I will go to the court and hand over which county to him!"

Cao Ang knew that although Liu Biao at this time had been wiped out by Wenwenxiang, as long as the interests were in place, then this guy would still dare to do it.

After listening to Cao Ang's words, Liu Qi couldn't help but ask a little nervously: "Young General, is it okay to do this?" ”

"Don't worry, when the banquet is over, I'll write a letter, you go back and bring it to your father, he will definitely take the initiative!" Cao Ang signaled that Liu Qi didn't have to worry about you, everything was under his control.

When Liu Qi heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon, the banquet ended, and Liu Guanzhang and the three of them returned to Langya with grain and grass.

And Lu Bu also caught up with the soldiers who were escorting the grain and grass and baggage, and returned to Xiapi with them.

After they all left, Cao Ang wrote a handwritten letter, wrote down all the things he promised, and stamped his general seal for Liu Qi to take back.

Liu Qi took the handbook and thanked Cao Ang for his kindness.

"Thank you Major General, with this handwritten letter from you, I will go back to ask my father for my life, be the Jiangxia Taishou, and take the initiative to lead the army to attack Yuan Shu!"

Cao Ang patted him on the shoulder when he heard this: "Fight hard, I'm very optimistic about you!" ”

"Thank you, Major General! Then Liu Qi took his leave. At this time, Liu Qi couldn't wait to take the handwritten book and go to Jingzhou.

After Liu Qi left, Tao Qian said to Cao Ang: "Young General, how should Uncle Liu and Lu Bu arrange this?" ”

"Well, you let Lu Bu attack Huainan, and you and Uncle Liu Huang attack Wu County, and put pressure on Yuan Shu on all fronts!" Cao Ang said lightly, he just wanted Yuan Shu to start a war on multiple fronts, overwhelmed, and defeat him in one fell swoop!

Tao Qian hurriedly nodded: "Okay, then I'll listen to the young general!" ”

After Cao Ang arranged the tasks of these people, he left Xuzhou and returned to Yuzhou.

After all, this 300,000 army still needs him to command.

……

At the same time, Liu Zhang of Yizhou, Yuan Shao of Jizhou, and Gongsun Zan of Youzhou all received edicts from the imperial court.

And the content of the edict is also very simple, that is, the imperial court is going to attack the traitor Yuan Shu, and you have a long way to go, so you don't want to send troops, just pay money and food.

Not out?

Then treat it as an anti-thief!

At this time in Yizhou, Liu Yan was already terminally ill, and all the big and small affairs of Yizhou were decided by Liu Zhang.

After Liu Zhang received the edict from the imperial court, he asked the opinions of various advisers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this edict from the imperial court asks us for money and food, what should we do?"

When Fa Zheng heard this, he stood up directly: "Young master, we must give this money and food, after all, now that the lord is really sick, if he doesn't give it, the Cao father and son will be dissatisfied, and after they deal with Yuan Shu, I am afraid that they will unite with Liu Biao and attack us." ”

In Yizhou, Fa Zheng is the leader among the strategists, and basically no one objects to what he says.

Liu Zhang's heart was dripping blood at this time, and the money and food that Cao Ang asked for was not a small amount: "There is no way not to give it?" ”

Fa Zheng pondered for a while and then spoke: "Yes! ”

"Oh? Filial piety, hurry up! As soon as Liu Zhang heard this, he hurriedly asked Fa to speak uprightly.

And Fa Zheng said lightly: "Attack Sizhou from Yizhou, capture Chang'an Luoyang, and enter King Qin!" ”

As soon as Fa Zheng's words fell, everyone present was stunned.

This is a blatant rebellion!

Liu Zhang was also stunned for a long time before he shook his head: "By all means, even if Cao Ang takes away 300,000 troops, then the Cao family still has 100,000 troops, not counting the forbidden army and the northern army!" ”

"We only have 100,000 troops in Yizhou, if we make a move, we will have no chance of winning with this gap in strength!"

Fa Zheng saw that Liu Zhang wanted to refuse, so he continued to speak: "It only takes half a month to march from Guanzhong to Chang'an and Luoyang, and the northern army has no time to react. ”

"Besides, let's fight without declaring a war, and we will be caught off guard by Cao Cao, and we are eighty percent sure that we can take Luoyang!"

After Liu Zhang listened to Fa Zheng's words, he didn't think much about it, and waved his hand directly: "Forget it, my father is still sick, I don't want to fight, so let's send some money and grain to Yuzhou." ”

Fa Zheng looked at Liu Zhang, and a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

At the same time, the other princes are also similar to Liu Zhang's side. (End of chapter)
