Chapter 972
Cai Ji was ordered to take Zhang He away.
Cao Shu was waiting, and a voice came over: "Why haven't Zirong fallen asleep yet?"
Hearing this voice, Cao Shu suddenly had a black head.
Just as he was planning to recruit Zhang He, he didn't expect Cao Cao to come.
Since Cao Cao has come, it is impossible for him to compete with his father for generals. It seems that he cannot accumulate all the four tues in Hebei this time.
Cao Shu turned around, bowed to Cao Cao who was walking over and asked: "Why haven't my father been asleep yet?"
"I feel heavy and can't sleep well." Cao Cao said: "The enemy still has the advantage on the north bank of the Yellow River. The future of this battle will be blurred. How can I sleep?"
"Father doesn't have to worry, the situation has been clear for a long time." Cao Shuo said: "The Yuan family has made many mistakes recently, and the four Hebei court pillars have all surrendered to our Cao family."
"I surrendered to you!" Cao Cao smiled slightly: "And not all."
"Submission to me is actually the same as submitting to my father." Cao Shuo said: "I am also a descendant of the Cao family. Where does my father want me to go, can I dare not go?"
"That's right." Cao Cao said: "There are only Zhang He who is still in the Yuan family, now only Zhang He is left in the Four Courtyards of Hebei."
"It's gone." Before he finished speaking, Cao Shu took over the conversation: "Feng Ji attempted to kill Zhang He, and news came from Yecheng that his family was slaughtered by the Yuan family."
"Hmm?" Cao Cao frowned slightly and asked Cao Shu: "The news is indeed true?"
"The news sent back by Huo Wu will definitely not be wrong." Cao Shuo said: "I planned to let Huo Wu rescue Zhang He's family from Yecheng, but I didn't expect that the Yuan family would take me one step ahead this time. It's a pity that hundreds of people."
"Where is Zhang He now?" Cao Cao asked.
"I sent someone to the other side and took him back." Cao Shuo said: "I will come soon."
"Do you want this person or I want it?" Cao Cao smiled slightly and asked Cao Shuo.
"I have already said just now that the person who works for his father is not mine, but the person who works for me must be his father's." Cao Shu grinned and said, "The difference is whether they are stationed in Huainan or Xudu."
"You have already obtained more than half of this, so give it to me." Cao Cao said: "This time I come to Hebei, can't you let me not get even any benefits?"
"What did my father say? If Hebei is captured, the entire Yuan family's territory will belong to my father." Cao Shuo said: "What my father gets is a big head, and what I get is only some fragments."
"I haven't got the big head, so I have to pick up some of the pieces." Cao Cao laughed and said, "You don't need to say more, I'm going to settle this person."
"As my father likes it." Cao Shu didn't even argue, and bowed to respond.
He had already had a plan in his heart that as long as he did not make a big mistake in front of Cao Cao and made countless contributions like he did in the battles and the wars in the north and the north, the Cao family would definitely be his in the future.
Why bother to compete with Cao Cao for a general who will fall into his hands sooner or later?
What's more, he was the one who sent people to Hebei to rescue Zhang He, and Zhang He already owed him a great favor.
As long as you manage your business well in the future, although Zhang He is in Xudu, he will definitely be his person in his bones!
My heart was like a mirror, and of course Cao Shu could not annoy Cao Cao because of his fight for Zhang He.
Seeing that he no longer distinguished, Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction and said, "You are still a filial son."
"What my father said." Cao Shuo grinned with a shy face and said, "Parents are the gods, and filial piety is of course very important. I can see anything. The one I hate the most is people who do not understand filial piety."
"I'm smart, I hope you're the same in your heart as you said." Cao Cao said with a smile.
The father and son were talking when Cai Ji walked over quickly.
Seeing that Cao Cao was there, he was stunned for a moment, then saluted and said, "Report to Cao Gong, Master, Zhang He has already brought him, right?"
"Bring him over to my father to see him." Cao Shuo ordered Cai Ji.
Cai Ji had already understood that he would definitely not be able to avoid Cao Cao by bringing Zhang He over, so he quickly responded and led Zhang He away.
After a while, Chen Dao and Deng Zhan accompanied Zhang He.
"Can this be Junyi?" Cao Cao quickly stepped forward, held Zhang He's shoulder, and looked him from head to toe: "It's thinner than I thought."
"General Zhang, this is my father." Cao Shuo stepped forward and bowed to Zhang He.
Zhang He knew Cao Shuo and learned that Cao Cao was the one who supported him. He quickly took two steps back and bowed: "Zhang He kowtowed Cao Gong."
When crossing the Yellow River, Zhang He was still hesitating.
He never believed that his family was actually killed and he still had doubts about this statement.
Chen Dao was chatting with him all the way, and Huo Wu was supplementing it. When he was about to reach the military camp, Zhang He had already believed in the murder of his family.
Kneeling on the ground, Zhang He said crying: "The Yuan family in Hebei kills my whole family. Please make sure to make the decision for me. I want to avenge my family!"
Cao Cao stepped forward to help Zhang He up and asked Cao Shu: "Zirong, look at this matter."
"I think it's better for the general to be calm." Cao Shuo said: "Let's wait for some time to see what news can be heard from Yecheng. If the previous news is wrong, wouldn't the general have to regret it for life?"
"Will there be any errors in the news?" Zhang He's eyes suddenly flashed with hope, and he asked Cao Shu quickly.
"The error may be small, but not necessarily not." Cao Shuo said: "The one who sent the news was Huo Wu. My father asked me to ask them to rescue the general's family, but they brought me such news. I have asked them to continue inquiring and must report the most real information back."
"Zi Rong is right, I don't want Jun Yi to do something irreversible." Holding Zhang He's hands, Cao Cao said: "Jun Yi is better off rest. When the detailed news comes from Yecheng, we will make plans."
Zhang He nodded and said to Cao Cao and Cao Shuo: "I will never forget the kindness of Cao Gong and the young master. I was secretly slandered by a villain in the Yuan family. I didn't expect that when I came here, the two of you could still put your heart in my shoes."
After sighing, Zhang He turned his face aside.
Cao Cao patted his arm gently: "Junyi, don't think too much. I'll take a rest here in the past few days. Wait until Zirong gets the exact news. We will consider how to avenge Junyi's family."
"Thank you, Mr. Cao! Thank you, Mr.!" Zhang He thanked the father and son again, and Cai Ji stepped forward to take Zhang He away.
"The two armies confronted Guandu, and I don't know how many days it will take to fight later, so you should stop earlier." When Zhang He left, Cao Cao ordered Cao Shu and took Xu Chu back to the commander's tent.
Watching Cao Cao go away, Chen Dao approached Cao Shu and asked quietly, "Young Master, was Zhang Junyi taken by Cao Gong?"
