At the banquet, everyone pushed their glasses and changed their glasses, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.

After the banquet dispersed, Gu Rubing immediately repaired a letter and sent an envoy to Cao Cao's camp.

It didn't take long for the messenger to rush back and bring back news of Cao Cao's refusal to reconcile.

"Cao Cao refused?"

Hearing this news, Gu Rubing frowned slightly and asked.

"Hui Lord, yes."

The envoy nodded, arched his hand and said, "Cao Cao said that the revenge of killing his father is not shared with the sky, and he refuses to stop the army. ”

Hearing the envoy say this, Gu Rubing's brows furrowed even deeper, and he felt a little surprised.

According to the original plot of the Three Kingdoms, it was almost at this point in time that Lu Buna's plan to attack Yanzhou was broken, and almost half of Yanzhou's boundaries were taken by Lu Bu.

Because of the loss of Yanzhou, Cao Cao put aside this "revenge for killing his father", immediately led his troops back to help, and gave up continuing to besiege Xuzhou.

However, it is clear that the historical plot has now changed.

Now that Chen Gong is loyal to Cao Cao, Lu Bu has no Chen Palace, no sneak attack on Yanzhou, and no worries about Yanzhou, Cao Cao naturally refuses to retreat so easily.

However, Gu Rubing didn't feel too much headache about this.

Cao Cao was unwilling to strike like in the original history, but he was like this, and he was not Liu Bei in the original history.

Now that he is a soldier, he can be described as a general, coupled with the soldiers and horses of Tao Qian in Xuzhou, it is definitely not a problem to hold Xuzhou.

Even he doesn't need to take the initiative to attack, as long as he and Cao Cao are consumed, Cao Cao, who can't attack for a long time, will definitely retreat due to lack of food.

After all, Yanzhou's grain and grass are not sufficient, and it is absolutely difficult to maintain a protracted war.

Gu Rubing pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "I know, you go down." ”

"Yes."

The emissary nodded, then turned to leave.

After the envoy left, Gu Rubing thought about it, took Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun to leave the camp tent and soon came to Tao Qian's mansion.

"Xuande Gong!"

Seeing Gu Rubing's arrival, Tao Qian's eyes lit up, and he immediately stood up and said, "How?" Is Cao Cao willing to withdraw from the army? ”

"Tao Gong, Cao Cao is unwilling to retreat."

Gu Rubing shook his head and said with some regret.

Hearing Gu Rubing's words, a trace of weeping instantly appeared on Tao Qian's face, and he said in a somewhat depressed voice: "The old man is really guilty, the old man is guilty of heaven, and it has caused the people of Xuzhou to suffer this great disaster!" ”

"Don't worry about Tao Gong."

Gu Rubing immediately gave up his hand and said comfortingly: "I am willing to help Xuzhou and repel Cao Cao!" ”

"Xuande Gong is really the king of benevolence and righteousness!"

Hearing Gu Rubing say this, a touch of joy suddenly appeared on Tao Qian's face: "With Xuande Gong here, I have no worries in Xuzhou!" ”

Tao Qian thought for a moment, and then said: "There is a small town near here, named Xiaopei, which is enough to garrison the army, and Xuande Gongke can garrison the army in Xiaopei, and Xuzhou is a horn of each other. ”

Hearing the word Xiaopei, Gu Rubing couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

In history, Liu Bei was arranged by Tao Qian to be in Xiaopeitun to resist Cao Cao, and later Liu Bei led Xuzhou to the pastor, and then arranged for Lu Bu to be in Xiaopei.

Later, when Lu Bu took advantage of Liu Bei's troops to attack Yuan Shu, he attacked Xuzhou, and Liu Bei had a polar reversal, and Liu Bei was driven to Xiaopei again.

Xiaopei's place can be said to be the place where the dream began.

But soon Gu Rubing collected his emotions, nodded, and arched his hand and said, "That's what I mean." ”

Seeing Gu Rubing agree, Tao Qian stood up tremblingly, and said to Gu Rubing: "Xuande Gong is so gracious, the old man really doesn't know how to repay it!" ”

"Prepare to aid Xuzhou, only for the sake of righteousness."

Gu Rubing shook his head, then paused again, and said, "However, speaking of which, Bei does have a reluctant request, and I hope that Tao Gong will fulfill it." ”

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Tao Qian was not surprised, and immediately asked: "What is the matter with Xuande Gong, you can say it bluntly." ”

"Beijiu heard the name of Zhang Zibu in Xuzhou, and I heard that Zhang Zibu was rude to Tao Gong and was imprisoned in prison. Gu Rubing's eyes flickered and he spoke.

Yes.

Zhang Zhao!

The reason why I came to save Xuzhou, in addition to the main quest, is that Zhang Zhao, who is currently being imprisoned by Tao Qian.

Who is Zhang Zhao?

That is the future of the Eastern Wu minister, first to help Sun Ce sweep Jiangdong, Sun Ce once compared Zhang Zhao to his own Guan Zhong, before Sun Ce died, but also left Sun Quan "ask Zhou Yu if you don't decide on foreign affairs, ask Zhang Zhao if you don't decide on internal affairs"!

Just this sentence is enough to see Zhang Zhao's gold content.

In terms of internal affairs, Zhang Zhao is definitely at the T0 level, and he should also have the characteristics of a literati!

If Zhou Yu is Jiangdong's brain, Zhang Zhao is Jiangdong's legs!

Indeed, after Sun Ce's death, the situation in Eastern Wu was critical, and Zhang Zhao helped Sun Quan to return to power and maintain Sun's rule in Jiangdong.

Although in later history, Cao Cao ruled the water army of 800,000 and invited Sun Quan to hunt in Wu, Zhang Zhao led a group of Eastern Wu Wenchen to surrender to Cao Wei.

However, at that time, Cao Cao had just taken Jingzhou, sitting on a million people, Weijia Hainei, who would have thought that Cao Cao would be defeated by the Sun and Liu families in Chibi?

So at that time, Zhang Zhao's proposal to surrender to Cao Cao was completely reasonable, which did not mean that Zhang Zhao was incapable.

"Zhang Zhao?"

Hearing this, Tao Qian was a little surprised, and said with a smile: "I thought it was something, since Xuande Gong interceded for Zhang Zhao, I should be open to the net." ”

After finishing speaking, Tao Qian turned his head to the guard beside him and said, "Someone." ”

"In!"

The guards immediately stepped forward and stood by.

"You go and release Zhang Zhao." Tao Qian opened his mouth and ordered.

"Yes."

The guard nodded.

"Xie Taogong."

Seeing this scene, Gu Rubing was overjoyed, and immediately arched his hand and said, "Since this is the case, be prepared to leave first." ”

As long as Zhang Zhao is saved, with this layer of affection, after repelling Cao Cao, it should be easy to conquer Zhang Zhao!

…………

In the next few days, Gu Rubing led a large army and stationed in Xiaopei, and Xuzhou formed a horn with each other, and began to confront Xiaopei and Cao Cao's army.

Cao Cao sent the general Cao Ren to lead the elite troops to attack Xiaopei several times, but in the face of Gu Rubing's strategy of strict defense, Cao Ren returned with all the feathers and could only retreat to Feng County, and Gu Rubing was in a stalemate.

Just when Gu Rubing thought that it would be consumed like this, it would not be long before Cao Cao would retreat, but an urgent letter suddenly came from Qingzhou.

Gu Rubing's military tent.

"Report!"

The messenger soldier was full of anxiety, hurriedly came to the camp, knelt down on one knee, and arched his hand: "Lord, it's not good, there is a change in Qingzhou!" ”

"What? Has Qingzhou changed? ”

Hearing this, the faces of everyone in the tent changed drastically in an instant.

Qingzhou is their foundation and base camp, Xuzhou was breached, but Qingzhou must not be lost.

"What's wrong with Qingzhou? Could it be that Qingzhou is lost? ”

Zhang Fei stared at a pair of ringed eyes, the killing intent on his body was agitated, and he asked angrily.

"Return to General Zhang."

The herald immediately bowed his hand and said: "Beihai Kong Rong suddenly united with the Beihai warriors to rebel and sneak attack the rear of Qi State, and at the same time Yuan Shao of Hebei sent troops to attack Bohai!" ”

"Although General Xu has defended the State of Qi, he has no time to support Bohai, Bohai is afraid that it will be broken soon, General Xu is worried that after Yuan Shao breaks through Bohai, he will join Kong Rong to attack Qingzhou, please return to support the Lord quickly!"

Hearing this, Xi Zhicai's face changed slightly, and he instantly understood, and immediately said: "Kong Rong must have colluded with Yuan Shao!" ”

"Kong Rong, this guy, what a bold!"

Zhang Feiyan was upside down, his eyes were full of murderous intent, and he said: "Beihai was in trouble before, my eldest brother saved him Beihai, he didn't want to repay the favor, he even dared to cooperate with the outside, and the favor will be avenged!" ”

Tai Shici, who was beside Zhang Fei, was a little incredulous, looked at the herald, and asked, "Are you sure it was the rebellion of Kong Guoxiang?" ”

"Sure, my subordinates don't dare to joke about this matter!"

Hearing Tai Shici's disbelief, the herald immediately surrendered his hand and said.

Tai Shici's face was instantly difficult to see, and he said with anger on his face: "I thought Kong Rong was a righteous gentleman, and he was even more afraid of danger before to save Beihai alone!" Although he doesn't read much, he also knows the word loyalty, Kong Rong is a descendant of Confucius, but he didn't expect to do such a thing that is inferior to a beast, he is really blind! ”

"My lord, Kong Rong must have been in cahoots with Yuan Shao, otherwise Kong Rong would never dare to rebel."

Xi Zhicai also had a dignified look on his face, and said to Gu Rubing: "Once Yuan Shao attacks Qingzhou, Qingzhou is in danger, once Qingzhou is breached, we will be homeless, and now we can only go back to the division to save the emergency!" ”

"What the military advisor said is extremely true."

Guan Yu stroked his long hair, and there was a hint of murderous intent in his phoenix eyes, and said: "Guan must be such a traitorous villain as Kong Rong!" ”

Hearing everyone's words, Gu Rubing's face was also extremely ugly.

He never expected that Cao Cao didn't have a fire in the backyard, but a fire broke out in the courtyard where he lived!

Fortunately, he just wanted to repel Cao Cao and did not leave Qingzhou with too many troops, and Qingzhou still had a lot of troops.

Moreover, there are Xu Rong, Chen Zhi, Han Hao, Tian Yu, and the five generals who are recruited in Qingzhou, as well as Guan Ning, Hua Xin and other civil servants who are left behind, otherwise the consequences ...... unimaginable!

Qingzhou is his basic plate, no matter what, Qingzhou must not lose!

"However, once our army retreats, Xuzhou ......"

Gu Rubing's brows tightened, and she felt a little headache.

Now Cao Cao is still eyeing Xuzhou, his side is resisting Cao Ren, Tao Qian is also resisting Xiahou Yuan, if he withdraws from Xiaopei, Tao Qian may not be able to stop Cao Cao's attack!

"Big brother, I can lead 3,000 soldiers and horses and continue to stay in Xiaopei."

At this moment, Guan Yu saw Gu Rubing's concern, his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately stepped forward and said: "These three thousand soldiers and horses, plus the original Xiaopei's garrison, even if Cao Bing has a million male divisions, he doesn't want to step into Xiaopei!" ”
