Unexpectedly, Jia Xu shook his head and said: "Liu Bei's hero, often wandering on the border, although he once ranked under the door of Gongsun Zan and Qingzhou Tiankai, but he is not a person who has lived under the people for a long time, and now Tao Qian is critically ill, Xuzhou is the place he has always pursued to settle down, I think he will not easily give up this territory." ”

Guo Jia raised his eyebrows and asked, "So Mr. Jia Xu thinks that Liu Bei is going to resist the emperor's order to fight for territory?" ”

Jia Xu shook his head and said: "It's not true, it's just that it will be outside, and the king's order will not be affected, even if Liu Bei does not disobey his order, this Xuzhou may still fall into his hands." ”

The more Chen Yan listened, the more confused he became, his brows twisted together, and he sighed: "Whether it's Zang Ba in Kaiyang or Liu Bei in Xuzhou, it's nothing more than wanting to take Tao Qian's territory, but now that we are annexing Chen Liu, even if we want to go east, it is also very difficult, why do you come to us to call the shots about Xuzhou?" ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "My lord, now the warlords of Yanzhou, in addition to us, we are Lu Bu and Cao Cao, Lu Bu is now besieged in Puyang, and Cao Cao is the enemy of Xuzhou, if they don't look for us, I'm afraid they won't be able to find others." ”

Chen Yan nodded and said in a deep voice: "Zang Ba has the heart to make friends, but after all, Liu Bei has already gained the general trend, and I am afraid it is really difficult to say who will be the lord of Xuzhou." ”

Guo Jia said: "Let's make sure that the saint is clear first, and wait for him to decide?" ”

Jia Xu nodded and said: "Yes, although Liu Bei occupies Xuzhou now, if the Holy Lord can give Zang Ba the opportunity to enter Xuzhou, it will definitely delay Liu Bei's development. ”

When Chen Yan heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "This plan is very good, just do it, Fengxiao, you immediately prepare a letter and send someone to hand it over to the Son of Heaven in Chang'an, explaining the situation of Xuzhou and Zang Ba." ”

Guo Jia immediately took the order and left.

Chen Yan suddenly fell softly on the chair and sighed: "It's difficult, it's difficult......"

……

Outside Puyang City, Cao Cao's army is entrenched on the entire plain, and the military camps are lined up one after another, looking from afar, just like a huge tomb.

The howling north wind in winter adds a bit of solemnity to this battlefield, although it has not snowed yet, but the weather is already surprisingly cold.

At this moment, outside Cao Cao's camp, a strange figure suddenly appeared, this figure was not tall, but with a surprising dusty temperament, and when the figure moved closer, the sentry suddenly found that this figure was actually a Taoist priest wearing a hat.

The Taoist priest was dressed in a blue and purple robe, with wide sleeves, flying in the wind, and a few long whiskers were faintly exposed under the hat, completely white, flying in the wind.

Strange, why did such a Taoist priest suddenly appear in Cao Cao's military camp at such a critical moment when the two armies were fighting?

Gradually, the old Taoist priest had already arrived at the door of Cao Ying, and the sentry suddenly tightened the bowstring in his hand and asked, "Ah! Who's coming? ”

The old Taoist priest suddenly lifted the hat, revealing a crane-haired and childish face and a pair of shining eyes under the hat.

"The little general told Cao Gong that he said that Zuo Ci, the Taoist priest of the Danding Sect, was visiting."

There was an indescribable majesty in the words of the Taoist priest, which actually made the bow-wielding sentinel tremble slightly.

Several sentries exchanged glances with each other, and one of them turned sharply and ran towards the barracks, which showed that they seemed to realize that the arrival of the old Taoist priest was a very important matter.

In the sound of running, the sentry had already rushed into the big tent of the Chinese army where Cao Cao was.

A moment later.

……

Zuo Ci stood in the military tent, and directly in front of him was Cao Cao, a generation of heroes with eyes as sharp as eagles.

And Cao Cao's side, naturally accompanied by countless civil and military generals, these civil and military generals are either resolute-looking or sharp-eyed, all of them are staring at Zuo Ci under the hall unguarded.

Cao Cao smiled slightly, got up, and said slowly: "The old immortal is visiting today, I don't know what advice I have?" ”

Zuo Ci was not polite, immediately smiled slightly, and replied calmly: "Help you break through Puyang." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the tent screamed "ah"! Zuo Ci, a Taoist priest, actually has such a big breath! Breaking through Puyang, Cao Cao has so many capable people and millions of soldiers, but they don't have this ability yet, could it be that this Taoist priest can take Puyang as soon as his two lips open and close?

Cao Cao also showed a look of surprise on his face, but he was still calmer than others, and immediately asked, "I don't know what tricks the old immortal has to be able to break through this Puyang guarded by Lu Bu." ”

Zuo Ci still had an indescribable confidence and mystery on his face, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "The method is naturally poor, but it can't be said for the time being, if Cao Gong trusts the poor Dao, and the poor Dao ensures that when the spring flowers bloom next year, Lu Bu will be arrested." ”

This was said in a loud voice, but it was earth-shattering, everyone under the tent had already exploded in a pot, making noise, Cao Cao was also confused, I didn't know what medicine Zuo Ci was selling in the gourd, but seeing that he was confident and talked freely, it really didn't look like he was here to talk nonsense.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao couldn't help but wonder: "Old immortal, it's not that Cao is disrespectful, it's just that this march and battle, the matter of attacking the city and pulling out the village is different from your Taoist cultivation and cultivation of qi, immortality, although the old immortal is a generation of masters who are famous in all directions, but I'm afraid I don't understand these combat things, right?" You say you can break through Puyang, but how can I trust you? ”

Zuo Ci said with a smile: "Indeed, what Cao Gong said is good, if it is said that the art of war is false and real, Poor Dao does know very little, but Lu Bu has a fatal weakness, if Cao Gong does not dislike it, Poor Dao may wish to stay in the army for the time being, as long as Poor Dao is here, if he fights with Lu Bu in the next few days, Poor Dao can bless Cao Gong with a complete victory." ”

Cao Cao was even more surprised when he heard this, he didn't expect Zuo Ci to boast about Haikou this time, although he didn't believe it in his heart, but leaving Zuo Ci to test it would never lose money, thinking of this, Cao Cao replied angrily: "Since this is the case, then I will wronged the old immortal to stay here temporarily." It's just that the old immortal gave Cao such a big benefit, I don't know why? ”

Indeed, there is no free lunch in the world, and Zuo Ci came rashly, not simply to serve Cao Cao. Although Cao Cao doesn't like the study of Chongxu, he has also heard of the famous Danding Sect, not to mention that Zuo Cigui is the master of a sect, and he is a person who leans towards one side.
