Just as Zhang Fei was about to lead his troops to catch up, Gu Rubing's voice suddenly sounded.

"Third brother!"

Gu Rubing looked at the Cao army who began to retreat, and immediately stopped: "There may be an ambush behind, don't chase deeply." ”

Hearing Gu Rubing's words, Zhang Fei was stunned, looked at Cao Jun who was constantly moving away, and snorted a little unwillingly, but in the end he still did not choose to continue the pursuit.

"Mingjin."

Gu Rubing looked at Cao Jun, who was getting farther and farther away, and then glanced at Xuzhou City not far away, frowned slightly, and said, "Enter Xuzhou City." ”

"I'll listen to my eldest brother."

Zhang Fei nodded, immediately raised the Zhangba Snake Spear, and roared: "Mingjin!" ”

Soon, the sound of Mingjin sounded, and when the sound of Mingjin was heard, the Qingzhou army immediately stopped the pursuit, began to collect troops, and continued to march towards Xuzhou City.

On Cao Jun's side, after withdrawing his troops for a while, he saw that the Qingzhou army behind him had stopped pursuing, and Xiahou Yuan, who was in charge of the broken horse, immediately rode up and said to Cao Cao: "Lord, Liu Bei didn't catch up." ”

"Didn't you catch up?"

Hearing this, Cao Ang's face was a little ugly, and he said: "Liu Bei is so cautious, if Liu Bei catches up, the military division will lead the ambush soldiers to the crossbow, and he will definitely be able to catch Liu Bei off guard!" ”

Cao Cao also had a look of disappointment on his face, but he quickly shook his head and said: "That's it, let's go and meet with the public platform first, and then make a plan, now that Tao Qian has Liu Bei's help, I'm afraid it will be a difficult bone to gnaw!" ”

For Cao Cao, attacking Xuzhou, in addition to avenging his father, is more important is the need to complete exclusive tasks, so even if he knows that Liu Bei sent troops to aid Tao Qian, he is not willing to give up.

"Yes!"

Xiahou Yuan immediately nodded, turned his horse's head, left the Chinese army, and continued to return to the rear army.

…………

Seeing Gu Rubing repelling Cao's army and leading the army to the city, Tao Qian, who had been watching the situation from the city, was also overjoyed, and smiled at Mi Zhu beside him: "As you said, Liu Xuande is really a benevolent and righteous king!" ”

Mi Zhu also looked excited, and said: "With the help of Xuande Gong, Xuzhou City will be saved!" ”

Tao Qian's face was flushed with excitement, nodded, and immediately turned his head to the pottery merchant beside him and said, "Shang'er, hurry, hurry, open the city gate to greet you!" ”

"Yes."

The potter's face was also hard to hide his joy, nodded, immediately turned around and went down to the city, and ordered someone to open the city gate.

Seeing the city gate open, Gu Rubing immediately shouted: "Enter the city!" ”

Soon, Gu Rubing led the army, and under the leadership of the potter, entered the city of Xuzhou.

"Thank you Xuande Gong for coming to save Xuzhou, Xuande Gong is really a benevolent and righteous person."

Tao Qian also came to Gu Rubing with the support of several personal guards, bowed his hand to Gu Rubing, and said with great gratitude: "The old man begged the princes of the Quartet, only Xuande Gong was willing to send troops to help, and my gratitude is beyond words!" ”

"Tao Gong doesn't need to be polite."

Hearing this, Gu Rubing immediately arched his hand and said: "I have heard that in today's troubled times, the world is chaotic, and the etiquette is broken, only Xuzhou Tao Gongzu is the most generous and kind, and loves the people like a son." ”

"Now Xuzhou is in trouble, how can Bei stand by? Preparing to save Xuzhou is to save the conscience of the world and save the Han world! ”

Hearing Gu Rubing's words, a trace of emotion appeared on Tao Qian's face, and he immediately arched his hand and said, "Xuande Gong is really a benevolent and righteous person!" ”

Tao Qian seemed to think of something, and suddenly turned his head to a man beside him who was wearing a crown on his head, wearing a curved robe, and a slender figure, about thirty years old, and said, "Yuanlong, take the Xuzhou brand seal." ”

Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but be stunned and couldn't help but look at each other.

Chen Deng was also stunned, glanced at the potter, quickly retracted his gaze, nodded, and arched his hand and said, "Yes!" ”

After speaking, Chen Deng turned around and hurried away.

When Gu Rubing heard the word "Yuanlong", his heart suddenly moved, and he immediately cast his gaze at Chen Deng's back.

For Chen Deng, Gu Rubing is naturally like thunder!

Chen Deng is the son of Chen Qi, born in a family of eunuchs, hearty, quiet personality, resourcefulness, when he was young, he had the ambition to help the world and help the people, and was well-read and knowledgeable.

In the plot of the Three Kingdoms, after Tao Qian's death, Chen Deng followed Liu Bei and cooperated with Zhang Fei to govern Xuzhou.

Later, Lu Bu won Xuzhou, Chen Deng had to assist Lu Bu because of his family business in Xuzhou, and later offered a plan to help Cao Cao win Xuzhou.

It was not until later that Cao Cao raised a large army, went down to Xuzhou on five roads, Liu Bei's soldiers were outnumbered, lost Xuzhou again, and surrendered to Yuan Shao, Chen Deng had to sacrifice the city to Cao, and since then he has become a courtier of Cao Wei.

It can be said that Chen Deng is Liu Bei's early stage, the only one and only top strategist!

Moreover, Chen Deng is already an extremely rare top strategist, and Chen Deng's father, Chen Qi, is even better than Chen Deng in terms of strategy!

Gu Rubing looked at Chen Deng's back, and it wasn't until Chen Deng's back disappeared that he finally withdrew his gaze.

Soon, Chen Deng held the Xuzhou brand seal, came back again, and then handed the Xuzhou brand seal to Tao Qian.

Tao Qian took the Xuzhou seal, and then walked to Gu Rubing step by step, and handed the Xuzhou seal to Gu Rubing.

"What does Tao Gong mean by this?"

Although he had expected it in his heart, Gu Rubing still showed a look of astonishment on his face and asked.

"As Xuande Gong said, there is a big mess today, and Wang Gang is sluggish."

Tao Qian looked at Gu Rubing and said: "The prince is a relative of the Han family, and it is appropriate to support the community, but the old man is old and incompetent, which caused Xuzhou to suffer this great disaster. ”

"Xuande Gong is a heroic man in the world, with an outstanding majestic appearance, and the old man is willing to give in to Xuzhou!"

After speaking, Tao Qian held the card seal and wanted to worship.

Seeing this scene, Gu Rubing immediately stepped forward to help Tao Qian, immediately shook his head, and said, "Tao Gong's words really make the disciples embarrassed!" ”

"Tao Gong has governed Xuzhou for a long time, and the people have praised him, no one in the world knows, so why is he old and incompetent?"

"Prepare to save Xuzhou today, just to declare righteousness in the world, Tao Gong said this, do you suspect that I have the heart to annex Xuzhou?"

At this time, the pottery merchant finally came back to his senses, and said anxiously: "Yes, father, Liu Yuanjun is here for righteousness, and he has no intention of annexing Xuzhou, and Liu Yuanjun also has Qingzhou to govern, how can he lead all things in Xuzhou?" ”

Hearing this, Gu Rubing's eyes changed, and he glanced at the potter a little strangely.

According to the plot of the Three Kingdoms, Tao Qian's two sons are not interested in official positions and power, why did this pottery merchant hear that Tao Qian wanted to make Xuzhou and suddenly anxious?

Gamer?

At this time, a group of strategists and generals also spoke up and said: "Lord, the top priority is to find a way to repel Cao Cao and relieve the siege of Xuzhou!" ”

"Yes, my lord, this matter can be discussed later."

At this time, Gu Rubing also nodded, and arched his hand: "Tao Gong, what you said is extremely true, and now it is important to retreat!" ”

Although he also wanted Xuzhou in his heart, Gu Rubing also knew very well that it was impossible for him to receive the Xuzhou brand seal now, if he directly took the Xuzhou brand seal, he was afraid that his reputation would stink immediately.

"I will immediately repair a letter to Cao Cao, persuade him to reconcile, if Cao Cao does not comply, and then fight with him!" Gu Rubing thought for a moment and then arched his hand.

Hearing everyone say this, Tao Qian finally took back the seal, handed it to Chen Deng again, nodded, and said, "This ...... All right. ”

Hearing Tao Qian's words, Tao Shang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

He can be said to have been greedy for this Xuzhou Mu for a long time!

Although his exclusive quest is a strange quest called "Avoiding Disaster in Troubled Times", as long as he does not inherit Xuzhou, he can obtain the trait called "Avoiding Disaster".

When he first saw this exclusive task, the potter was directly confused.

What kind of pit daddy task, let me give up Xuzhou?

To the beak of the duck, can I watch it fly?

Get lost!

Lao Tzu potter, vowing to roll up to the end, never rotten!

Seeing Tao Qian take back the Xuzhou seal, Gu Rubing was also a little relieved, and then glanced at the pottery merchant.

The fact that the potter is a player is somewhat unexpected by Gu Rubing.

Originally, Gu Rubing thought that if he came to Xuzhou, there was a high probability that he would be able to pick up a Xuzhou for nothing, but now it seems that this matter is likely to be variable.

In history, the main reason why Tao Qian asked Xuzhou to Liu Bei was actually because Tao Qian's two sons, Tao Shang and Tao Ying, did not want to be officials.

Otherwise, even if Xuzhou is the land of four wars, because of the war, it will not be something that Liu Bei can pick up.

Originally, Gu Rubing was still hesitating, if Tao Qian still gave way to Xuzhou, whether he would take Xuzhou like in the original plot.

After all, his foundation in Xuzhou is too shallow, and once he takes Xuzhou, he will definitely be severely restrained by the scholars in Xuzhou.

Moreover, the three counties and three kingdoms of Xuzhou are seriously divided, Langya was divided by Zang Ba, and Xiapi Guangling was controlled by Zhenrong, both of them listened to the tune and did not listen to the announcement, and Tao Qian actually controlled only Pengcheng, Peiguo and Donghai.

Of course, more importantly, if you take Xuzhou, you will have to face Yuan Shao in the north, Sun Jian and Yuan Shu in the south, and Cao Cao in the west, and it will be easy to take care of it.

At first, Gu Rubing's idea was that if he could take Xuzhou, he would push the boat down the river and take it, and he would talk about the situation in the future, but now that there is a variable of potters, Gu Rubing suddenly changed his mind.

Since the potter wants to be the pastor of Xuzhou, let him be it, anyway, if he really wants to be himself, I am afraid that he will not be able to compete.

Moreover, the pottery merchant led Xuzhou Mu, and he could also share the pressure from Cao Cao and Yuan Shu, and he could form an alliance with Xuzhou, advance southward, take Taishan County, and then look to the north.

Compared with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, in fact, Gu Rubing's real confidant is actually Zang Ba.

Langya and Mount Tai occupied by Zang Ba happen to be the natural danger in the south of Qingzhou, if you don't deal with Zang Ba, Qi and Jinan are the buffet of Taishan thieves!

"Xuande Gong, this matter of Xuzhou will be discussed in the future, but Xuande Gong came to save me Xuzhou, such a great favor, the old man really can't repay it."

Tao Qian looked at Gu Rubing and said again: "The old man will set up a thin banquet tonight to entertain Xuande Gong. ”

"In that case, thank you Tao Gong."

Gu Rubing retracted his thoughts, glanced at the potter deeply, and then immediately said.

Xuzhou should not give it to the protagonist, but this is not deliberately pressing the protagonist, and when it comes to the later plot, there will be no spoilers.
