Although Cao Ang's army was heavily trained, no soldier would take the initiative to attack a small character like Liu Cong.

Cao Ang took Liu Cong all the way to the Chinese army's tent, Liu Cong looked around, except for Cao Ang and a few partial generals, there was no one else at all.

Cao Ang looked at Liu Cong, who was full of doubts, and said, "General Liu, aren't you still at ease?" ”

Liu Cong shook his head, scolding in his heart, it's already here, I doubt what's the use of you?

"Then ask General Liu to have a glass of wine to warm up." Cao Ang picked up the wine bottle on the table.

Liu Conghu glanced at Cao Ang suspiciously, then picked up the wine bottle, and he drank it all.

Seeing this, Cao Ang laughed: "What? Isn't General Liu afraid that I will be poisoned? ”

"Hehe...."Liu Cong smiled and said, "General Cao, you won't do such a stupid thing, after all, you won't get any benefits if I die." ”

"Clever." Cao Ang praised.

"Since General Liu is so knowledgeable, I won't talk nonsense, let's talk about business, what is the situation inside Jingzhou now?" Cao Ang put away his smile and said.

Liu Cong sighed and said: "Alas, I won't hide it from you, now my father has handed over the power of government affairs to Liu Qi, he is drunk and lying on the knees of beauties all day long, waking up to take charge of the world, not to mention how depressed it is these days." ”

"I see, then I don't know what General Liu is looking for me?" Cao Ang asked knowingly.

Liu Cong said: "I want to ask General Cao to help me level Liu Qi, the conditions are negotiable." ”

"Oh?" Cao Ang glanced at Liu Cong in surprise, and then said, "General Liu actually wants to borrow a knife to kill people?" ”

"Don't misunderstand Gongzi Cao, I'm worried that after Liu Qi usurps the throne, it will bring disaster to Jingzhou." Liu Cong hurriedly explained.

"I know this, but as far as I know, Liu Qi's power is not to worry." Cao Ang said.

Liu Cong said: "There will always be some people in this world that we cannot understand.

Liu Qi not only has many henchmen in Jingzhou, but also has attracted a lot of powerful people, and now Liu Qi's power is already very large, and we may not be able to resist it for long. ”

"If there is Cao Gongzi's support, then Liu Qi will definitely be defeated!" Liu Cong continued: "As long as Cao Gongzi agrees, the two of us will unite and we will definitely be able to oust Liu Qi from power!" ”

"General Liu is too naïve." Cao Ang said contemptuously: "Do you think Liu Qi is a fool? He must have been prepared for this, and if we attack rashly, we will be frustrated. ”

"What does Cao Gongzi mean?" Liu Cong asked tentatively.

Cao Ang narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment and said, "General Liu, do you remember that in March, Yuan Shu's envoy once arrived in Jingzhou?" ”

"Yes." Liu Cong nodded and said, "He brought Yuan Shu's order." ”

"Yuan Shu ordered Liu Qi to attack Jiangling, and named Liu Qi as the next Jingnan county guard, and assisted Liu Biao in governing Jingnan." Cao Ang's words were astonishing.

"How could Yuan Shu give such an order?" Liu Cong exclaimed in surprise, this was the first time he had heard of this.

"General Liu doesn't have to be nervous, I only knew the news, otherwise how could I just tell you now." Cao Ang said.

"That's why Liu Qi has no fear, which is why your father handed over power to him." Cao Ang continued to analyze.

Liu Cong gritted his teeth, eager to kill Liu Qi immediately, because he always felt that the other party had robbed him of his things.

"General Liu, we can unite." Cao Ang suddenly threw out a sweet jujube and said, "After winning Liu Qi, I guarantee that you can become the assassin of Jingzhou, how about this deal?" ”

Liu Cong's brows furrowed, the temptation given by Cao Ang was indeed attractive, especially when he was short of troops now.

"Don't know what it costs me?" Liu Cong asked after thinking about it for a long time.

Cao Ang smiled and stretched out five fingers: "Give me a tribute of 100,000 stone of grain and 5,000 war horses every year." ”

"So much?" Liu Cong's eyes widened, Cao Cao's appetite was even greater than he imagined, and he actually asked for nearly thirty percent of Jingzhou's wealth at one time.

"No way!" Liu Cong categorically denied it: "If you say this, I'd rather not participate in the competition, anyway, I won't get any benefits in the end." ”

"General Liu may have forgotten one point, you are begging me now, and you are not qualified to negotiate conditions." Cao Ang sneered and said, "General Liu, let's think carefully before making a decision." ”

Liu Cong took a deep breath and said, "Young Master Cao, you should know that our Liu family has been operating in Jingzhou for several years.

But now that there have been wars for many years, I am afraid it will be difficult to come up with so much money and food for a while. ”

Cao Ang smiled: "Don't worry about these General Liu, you just need to say if you want to." ”

"Master Cao, your requirements are too high, I can't agree to you." Liu Cong said firmly.

"Then forget it, you can go, don't send it." Cao Ang stood up and said.

"Cao Gongzi" Liu Cong was just about to capture the old man, but he didn't expect Cao Ang to refuse so directly and not give him a chance at all.

Liu Cong had no choice but to change his strategy and said: "Gongzi Cao, aren't you afraid that our Jingzhou and you will die in the net?" ”

"Hahaha, you can try it, but the information I just got shows that there are only six or seven hundred elites left in your Xiangyang City.

This amount of troops wants to fight us, and you think you have a few chances of winning. Cao Ang smiled mockingly.

"Young Master Cao, you" Liu Cong was choked.

Cao Ang said lightly: "I advise you to do it honestly according to my plan, otherwise our Cao clan will not mind letting Jingzhou change its master." ”

"How dare you threaten me!" Liu Cong was furious, he had never met an arrogant and domineering kid like Cao Ang, and he dared to threaten him, which was really unreasonable.

"Whatever you think, but I'm sure you're not stupid." Cao Ang said slowly: "If you don't want Liu Qi to continue to hold power, then it's best to do what I say." ”

"You" Liu Cong suddenly became angry, he knew that he had met a hard stubble this time, and the other party had a strong background, so he couldn't afford to provoke him at all.

"I promise you!" Liu Cong gritted his teeth.

"Very good, congratulations to General Liu for making the right decision, then we will have a happy cooperation." Cao Ang smiled slightly.

"Humph!" Liu Cong shook his sleeves fiercely and left, and then left Cao Ang's military camp quickly.

"General, what should we do now?" The staff next to Liu Cong asked in a low voice.

"What else can I do, I can only cooperate with them and get rid of Liu Qi first." Liu Cong said viciously: "As for the rest, I'll talk about it then." ”

"My subordinates understood." Said the staff.

"In addition, we have to beware of this Cao Ang, I always feel that he has a conspiracy, we must be careful." Liu Cong admonished.

"My subordinates understand." The staff nodded heavily.

The other side.

"General, Liu Cong has agreed, when will we act?" In Cao Ang's tent, a strategist asked.

Cao Ang smiled with satisfaction when he heard this: "Since this is the case, then arrange it immediately, our plan will also be carried out in an orderly manner!" (End of chapter)
