After Lu Bu heard that Cao Ang was coming, he followed Huang Zhong and Zhang Liao to the gate of the camp to greet him.

"Major General!" Huang Zhong and Zhang Liao said in unison.

Cao Ang nodded when he heard this, "The two generals have worked hard. ”

Then, Cao Ang's gaze fell on Lu Bu on the side.

Lu Bu looked at Cao Ang, hesitated for a moment, and still arched his hand: "Young General." ”

Originally, Lu Bu planned to call a sentence to get closer to Cao Ang.

But when I thought of it, my previous attitude towards Cao Ang was not very good, and I still didn't dare to say that sentence.

Seeing this, Cao Ang responded with a smile: "Wenhou, it's been a long time." ”

Lu Bu laughed awkwardly and nodded.

Then the group entered the tent.

Zhao Yun glanced at Lu Bu deeply, and then followed Cao Ang step by step.

After coming to the camp, Cao Ang listened to Huang Zhong's report on the situation in the forward army, as well as the fact that Chen Deng had been here, and also told Cao Ang together.

It's just that with Lu Bu here, Huang Zhong and Zhang Liao tacitly hid some details.

After Huang Zhong and Zhang Liao said these things, Lu Bu stood up and said to Cao Ang: "Young General, if you want to borrow some soldiers and horses from the Young General to recapture Xiapi, please agree to the Young General!" ”

When everyone heard this, one by one, the expressions on their faces were a little weird.

Especially Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun, both of them knew that Lu Bu had a bad reputation, and if they lent him soldiers, it was true that they had borrowed but not repaid.

Cao Ang looked at Lu Bu's serious face, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Wen Hou, do you remember our previous agreement?" ”

Lu Bu's face turned red when he heard this, and then he said: "Naturally, I remember, but I can't swallow this breath, Tao Qian deceives people too much, I want revenge!" ”

When Cao Ang heard this, he waved his hand lightly and said, "Tao Qian ignored the orders of the imperial court and attacked Xiapi, where you are Wen Hou, and I am here to deal with this matter with a large army." ”

"So, Wen Hou, don't be anxious, sooner or later there will be a chance for you to take revenge, but you need to wait for some time, wait for me to deal with Zang Ba and the others among the Taishan bandits first, and then make a move on Tao Qian."

When Lu Bu heard this, the expression on his face stiffened.

Seeing this, Cao Ang continued: "If Picheng is not lost now, then I can still send troops to support you, but now that Xiapi City has been lost, besides, Xiapi City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the number of Xuzhou troops is also quite large. ”

When Lu Bu heard Cao Ang say this, he could only compromise: "Okay, Nabu will obey the arrangement of the young general." ”

Cao Ang was a little surprised when he saw Lu Bu compromise, originally he thought that Lu Bu would be unhappy to get angry, but he didn't expect this guy to hold back.

Soon, the crowd dispersed, and Cao Ang began to prepare to deal with the affairs of the Taishan bandits.

At this time, in Pengcheng, Tao Qian also got the news that Xiapi City was broken, but Lu Bu fled.

"This Lu Bu is really fateful!" Tao Qian couldn't help but sigh: "Now Picheng has been breached, so let this guy escape." ”

After Chen Deng heard Tao Qian's words, he opened his mouth and said, "Lord, even if Lu Bu escaped, he had nowhere to go except Cao Ang. ”

"We can negotiate with Cao Ang and ask him to hand over Lu Bu to us for disposal, and we won't care about the fact that he led the army to our Xuzhou."

At this time, Chen Deng swore that Cao Ang would not go to war with Xuzhou.

When Tao Qian heard this, he also felt that it was feasible.

Just as Tao Qian was about to give an order, a scout ran in and said in a panic: "Lord, something is wrong!" ”

At this time, Tao Qian was happy in his heart to break through the city of Picheng, but when he heard someone say that something was not good, his face immediately sank.

"What's going on, if you can't tell you why, I'll cut you down!" Tao Qian said angrily to the scout.

The scout was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Lord, that Cao Ang personally led an army of 250,000 troops, arrived in Lanling, and joined Huang Zhong and Zhang Liao!" ”

"What?" Tao Qian looked at the scout with a shocked face, he couldn't have imagined that Cao Ang really led the army and arrived in Xuzhou.

"Is this true?" Tao Qian asked at the scout, at this time, he still had a trace of fantasy.

The scout nodded and said, "Lord, it's true, how dare the little one deceive you!" ”

When Tao Qian heard this, his face suddenly turned like ashes, after he made a move on Lu Bu, although he broke through Xiapi, his Xuzhou army also suffered heavy losses!

What's more, even if it is the Xuzhou army at its peak, I am afraid that it will not be able to stop the 300,000 Cao army!

At this time, Tao Qian was frightened and had no master.

Seeing this, Chen Deng on the side hurriedly said to Tao Qian: "Lord, don't panic, even if Cao Ang comes with an army of 300,000, what if he is unknown, this is to attract the princes of the whole world to attack him in groups!" ”

When Tao Qian heard Chen Deng's words, he hurriedly said, "Yuanlong, do you still have a countermeasure?" ”

Hearing this, Chen Deng nodded and said, "Lord, we should now unite all the forces that can be united to resist the Cao army!" ”

"Joint? Yuanlong, do you mean to unite Liu Bei and the Taishan bandits? "Tao Qian is also a hegemon, although he is old now, his mentality is a little poor.

But after Chen Deng's suggestion, he returned to normal.

He has been operating in Xuzhou all his life, how can he give it to others?

Thinking of this, Tao Qian said to Chen Deng: "Yuanlong, if I let you go to Mount Tai and persuade that Zang Ba to join me in the fight against Cao, are you willing?" ”

Hearing this, Chen Deng arched his hand at Tao Qian and said: "The lord trusts me, and he will not give up in the next ten thousand deaths!" ”

"Good! With Yuanlong, you and other righteous people are here, why should I worry that Cao Jun will not retreat! After Tao Qian sighed, he continued: "This time, Yuanlong, you go to Mount Tai, I will go to Langya, you persuade Zang Ba to send troops, I persuade Liu Bei to send troops!" ”

Although Liu Bei doesn't have many troops there, no matter how small the fly is, it's also a piece of meat!

Without further ado, after making a decision, Tao Qian and Chen Deng set off with their own escorts.

Tao Qian arrived in Langya and met Liu Bei.

When Tao Qian saw that Guan Yu was also by Liu Bei's side, he couldn't help but feel stable in his heart.

With Liu Guanzhang and the three of them here, there is no need to be afraid of Cao Ang's generals!

Thinking of this, Tao Qian was ready to get straight to the point and persuade Liu Bei to send troops, but before he could speak, Liu Bei spoke first. (End of chapter)
