Chapter 162 Damn it, I’m just a pendant here!

At the beginning, Guo Fengxiao left at Yuan Shao's place.

At that time, Huaicai defected to Yuan Shao, but he saw that there were so many advisers under his command that he could not reuse them, and he could not display his talents, learning and ambitions.

In fact, Yuan Shao was not ignorant of talents, but his temperament with Guo Jia was at odds.

What he values ​​​​is checks and balances.

Rather than seeking talent.

Yuan Shao wanted to balance the factions of counselors under his command, restrain each other and support each other, so that the administration of the territory would be peaceful and the army would be able to march strategically.

This is what he does when he has a large number of counselors. At the same time, he must take into account the status of each family's defection and not neglect any family. This is his fundamental.

So Guo Jia cursed and left.

Now that we have arrived at Cao Cao's place, it is because of the aristocratic noble families and many celebrities are in Jizhou.

He won the name of Hanshi and planned the attack, so he paid more attention to this battle.

It can never be defeated.

Guo Jia's many strategies were all aimed at completely annihilating Yuan Shao.

This is not because of vindictiveness, but because those who are arrogant and arrogant really cannot afford to lose.

The good thing now is that the counselors under Yuan Shao in Jizhou may not take him seriously.

However, he took all the counselors very seriously and sent spies together with Zhicai to inquire into various situations in Jizhou.

Therefore, he can calm down now that Cao Cao has given him a few words of advice.

Don't lose your original intention of marching because of tactics.

Letting Lu Bu in would undoubtedly create a sense of incitement and allow the rebels to take chances.

It must be killed to show the Prime Minister's determination.

Deter the nearby princes and generals so that they cannot interfere with the battle with Yuan Shao.

Although, everyone is still in the armament stage at this time.

It may take several years before a war actually breaks out, but under the calm surface of the lake, undercurrents are already surging.

Not long after.

Cao Cao came to Xudu Prison, Man Chong opened the door for Cao Cao, and led him all the way to the deepest place.

The person imprisoned on the outside is Chen Gong.

And the large cell in the deepest part is Lu Bu's.

Cao Cao and Chen Gong looked at each other across an iron fence.

"Gongtai, long time no see."

"snort!"

Chen Gong immediately rolled his sleeves and snorted coldly.

"The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit!"

"Now I am a prisoner! All you have to do is humiliate me! If Cao Cao still cares about our old relationship, please give me a sword and let me commit suicide in this prison, so as not to be reviled and humiliated!"

Cao Cao immediately chuckled twice.

He said in a deep voice: "You still know that you will be reviled."

"If you hadn't rebelled against me in the first place, how could you have ended up like this?"

"Looking at it now, I am the prime minister, and you can only live in this prison."

Chen Gong shook his hands, and the chain made a clear and consistent sound, but he still smiled and said: "It's not like I haven't seen a scene like yours before."

"Hahaha, that's right."

Cao Cao laughed freely and said, "That's right, that's right. When we were in Zhongmou, you were the county magistrate and I was a fugitive."

"It's you who let me go."

"Cao Cao, if you want to kill, just kill him. There is no need to come and reminisce with me. You and I have no old friendship to remember, and I don't want to use what happened back then to plead for mercy and gain a way out. As for biting anyone again before I die, I don't even bother to do so.

"

"I can only say that one wrong move in chess is irreversible."

Chen Gong stared at Cao Cao. At this time, his eyes were filled with determination. Although he was not angry, he was very calm. After saying this, he clasped his hands and bowed deeply to Cao Cao, very solemnly.

"I only ask for one thing."

"Say it."

Cao Cao also calmed down. At this time, people are about to die, so what he said should not be difficult to do.

"Take good care of my family, wife and children."

Cao Cao's lips moved slightly and he said: "Your wife and children, Bowen, have been sent to Xudu, and I will raise them for you."

"In this way, it can be regarded as repaying the friendship between Zhongmou and Zhongmou. As for your attempt to disrupt our Yanzhou and rebel against us with Zhang Miao and others, let this matter be forgotten."

"Huh..." After Chen Gong heard this, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense expression on his face finally relaxed a little, "Thank you."

Cao Cao looked at him again, and his mentality was different at this time.

They fled together and then fought together.

In the end, they turned against each other, and Cao Cao never knew when Chen Gong's heart really changed.

At this moment, Lu Bu's cell suddenly rang with the sound of gold and iron. He stood up suddenly, grabbed the thick wooden railing, and asked eagerly: "Prime Minister Cao! Duke Cao, do you dare to ask where my family is?!

"

Cao Cao turned to look at him and said, "We have arrived in Shouchun."

"Xu Bowen!!"

Boom, boom, boom!

Lu Bu knocked on the wooden fence, which made a dull sound.

You said you're not that kind of person! You are so true!!

Rumors don’t deceive me! You are indeed...

"Lu Bu," Cao Cao walked up to him slowly and said with a smile: "Flying General Lu Bu, when we were in front of Hulao Pass, I knew you were brave and brave. I thought that all the generals in the world were like you, but now it seems that you are no worse than you."

There are still many people.”

Boom!

Lu Bu immediately slapped the thick wood, and his messy hair fell down. His eyes stared at Cao Cao eagerly, "Don't kill me!"

"Mr. Cao, please don't kill me!"

"I can also capture cities and territory for you and lead troops to charge! You are about to compete with Yuan Shao for territory. Yuan Shao and I also have a personal grudge! When I was stationed in Jizhou, he tried to kill me secretly several times, so he fled to Zhang Yang!"

"I have a grudge against Yuan Shao, you can't kill me!"

Cao Cao suddenly smiled and said, "Well, if you say a few more words, I will be tempted right away."

Lu Bu's heart tightened, and he seemed to see brilliance in his eyes. He wanted to reach out to grab Cao Cao and say something from the bottom of his heart, but there was really no space in the thick wood between him, so he moved his palm out and waved a few times.

Urgent and hasty.

But if I really wanted him to say a few more words, I didn't know how.

After all, almost everything has been said.

"Mr. Cao, please save me, don't kill me."

"I am definitely still useful. I can make the cavalry charge for you! I, Lu Bu, will never be weaker than the generals of Hebei."

Cao Cao laughed, put his hands in front of him from behind, leaned forward leisurely, and said: "Then this is wrong, Xu Zhen is from Hebei."

"Except him!"

Lu Bu's eyes widened, and he didn't have much energy anymore. At this moment, he just wanted to live. The pride that he had cultivated by being feared and admired by others over the years was gone at this moment.

"I am still the great Han Hou Wen, and I will definitely be loyal to you."

"Moreover, if Mr. Cao has me leading the army, I can help you defeat Youzhou and Bingzhou, not to mention Jizhou! I still have old acquaintances in Bingzhou! If you raise your arms, I will have friends to help you!"

"Well, I believe this."

Cao Cao immediately put away his smile, straightened his back and put his hands on his back. After this action, his expression became indifferent.

"You'd better go to hell, find an old acquaintance in Bingzhou, and then rebel against me?"

"No! Absolutely not!" Lu Bu's face changed drastically, and sweat even started to flow from his forehead, "I will definitely get the credit! How have I, Lu Bu, ever been timid in fighting in the past ten years!"

"Have you ever thought, Mr. Cao, that there are so many noble princes and heroes in the world who are all vying for me! There must be something I can do for you!"

"Hehehe, no need!"

Cao Cao turned around and left.

Guo Jia shook his head bitterly and said, "If we don't mention Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo, I'm afraid it would be okay. But if we mention his two foster fathers, no one in the world would dare to use him."
