Chapter 47: Tao Qian: Someone is always watching me in Xuzhou
"boom"
"impossible!"
Yuan Shu slammed the letter Wang Yun wrote to him on the table.
Opening the Immortal Book? Are you kidding? He has the Immortal Book here, so why does Dong Zhuo use it to open it?
"My lord, no matter whether the fairy book in Dong Zhuo's hand is real or not, my lord must insist that the fairy book in his hand is real. The fairy book in his hand, Dong Zhuo's, is fake, used to deceive the whole world!" Yan Xiang told Yuan Shu
I came up with an idea, that is, what bites me here is the real thing, confusing the world and not being able to tell the truth from the false.
In this way, those who want to seek refuge with Dong Zhuo for the fairy book will definitely hesitate whether it is worth it to go to Dong Zhuo. It is not impossible to deceive the whole world with fake fairy books based on what Dong Zhuo has done before.
"Hmph, one day when I succeed in cultivating Taoism, I will surely overthrow Chang'an and take Dong's head as a chamber pot!" Dong Zhuo is really hateful. He has fled to Chang'an and is still uneasy, and he is trying to slander the fairy book in his hand as a fake.
If it is fake, then what is the elixir that I concocted!
"What my lord is saying is, but Cao Cao in Yanzhou next door owns fairy books, fairy objects, and fairy fate. Why doesn't my lord have an army to seize them? As long as Cao Cao dies, not only Yanzhou belongs to the lord, but also his fairy objects and fairy books.
They all belong to the Lord!" Seeing that Yuan Shu was so obsessed with immortality, Yan Xiang rolled his eyes and continued to advise Yuan Shu, asking Yuan Shu to target Cao Cao.
When Yuan Shu heard Yan Xiang's words, he couldn't help but feel excited. He walked back and forth in the hall, hesitating whether to take Cao Cao's idea.
"What should I do!" Yuan Shu finally made up his mind to listen to Yan Xiang, snatched Cao Cao's fairy books and fairy objects, and occupied Yanzhou!
Yan Xiang was overjoyed when he heard this, and finally found a way for Yuan Shu to dominate the world.
"Back to my lord, if my lord wants to take Yanzhou, he must first capture Xuzhou!"
"Xuzhou is located at the junction of the north and the south. It is the key to the north and the gateway to the south. It is a battleground for military strategists. As long as the lord occupies Xuzhou, it will be very convenient for him to go north to Youqing, west to the Central Plains or south to Jingxiang."
"Moreover, Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou, is old and weak, and his heirs are incompetent. It will be easy for the lord to capture Xuzhou." Yan Xiang said his plan without thinking. He had been planning this plan for a long time, and today he finally got the chance.
Speak out.
"Okay, here's the order. The three armies will train as normal every day and wait until the next spring to attack Xuzhou!" Hearing that Yan Xiang had already considered everything for him, Yuan Shu no longer hesitated and decided to use troops against Xuzhou in the next spring!
"As you command!"
...
"My lord, just behead them." The three people who failed the challenge were carried to Cao Cao, and Xiahou Dun asked Cao Cao to behead him.
Looking at the three weak men who failed in the challenge, Cao Cao had some doubts. No matter how brave Lu Bu was, he couldn't defeat one against three. What's more, there was Xia Houyuan, a divine archer, who was leading the formation. How could he lose?
"Yuan Rang is serious. Isn't it just a failure? Just try again next time."
Cao Cao comforted Xiahou Dun.
Xiahou Dun, on the other hand, turned his head aside with a face of shame. Their original plan was for Dian Wei and himself to come forward and fight, while Xiahou Yuan waited for the opportunity with his bow and arrow.
But they underestimated Lu Bu's strength. He and Dian Wei couldn't defeat Lu Bu. The three of them fought against each other for hundreds of rounds. He was killed by Lu Bu because of lack of physical strength, and Dian Wei also fought hard to get Lu Bu's violent state.
, but in the end Xia Houyuan was also caught up by the red rabbit horse and fell to the horse's feet. The three of them failed in the challenge.
If he had been stronger and consumed more of Lu Bu's energy, Xia Houyuan could have lasted until Lu Bu's violent time was over.
"Lord, there are two people outside claiming to be Han Fu's subordinates who are looking for my lord!" At this moment, a soldier ran in and reported to Cao Cao.
"Oh?" Cao Cao glanced at Xun Yu in confusion. If Han Fu didn't vote for Yuan Shao now, what would his subordinates be doing?
"Did you tell me your name?" Cao Cao asked the soldier.
"As I said, one of them is called Geng Wu and the other is Guan Du." The soldier answered truthfully.
"Hahaha, congratulations, my lord!" Xun Yu thought for a moment and then congratulated Cao Cao.
"Wen Ruo, why are you so happy?" Cao Cao asked knowingly.
"Back to my lord, these two subordinates of Han Fu must have been dissatisfied with Han Fu's gift of Jizhou to Yuan Shao, so they came to seek refuge with my lord. These two men must have come to ask my lord to assist them in retaking Jizhou. In this way, my lord's departure
The name of Jizhou has come, isn't this joyful?" Xun Yu explained.
As the saying goes, if you start with a good reputation, if you have an improper reputation, you will surely fail!
"Hahaha, you know me well, Wen Ruoye, please come and take me to meet these two people.
...
"Hahaha, these are General Guan and General Geng."
The two of them, Cao Cao and Cao Cao, who were waiting, heard a burst of hearty laughter from behind, and looked back to see that it was Cao Cao.
"Geng Wu"
"Guan Du"
"Meet Mr. Cao!"
Geng Wu and Guan Dun immediately saluted Cao Cao after seeing him.
"It can't be done, it can't be done. It's true that you two have come all the way from thousands of miles away, but I, Cao Cao, am not far away to meet you." Cao Cao immediately helped Geng Wu and Guan Dui up.
This move moved Geng Wu and Guan Dun to tears. They did not expect to receive such courtesy from Cao Cao.
"This is not the place to talk. Please come with me. I have already prepared a banquet." Cao Cao invited Geng Wu and Guan Rui to join the banquet.
We can only talk openly at the wine table.
"I wonder if General Han encountered any difficulties when General Guan and General Geng came this time? If General Han encounters any difficulties, you two can just say that if there is anything I, Cao Cao, can do to help, I will definitely help.
"After drinking for three rounds, Cao Cao began to get down to business and asked Geng Wu and Guan Dun.
"Why."
"To be honest, Mr. Cao, I really came here to ask for something." Geng Wu put down the wine glass in his hand and sighed.
The real power in Jizhou is now in the hands of Yuan Shao. This is something everyone in the world knows. Since Cao Cao asked about it, he climbed up the pole.
"But it doesn't matter." Cao Cao asked Geng Wu to just say it.
"Han Fu listened to the traitor and gave Jizhou to Yuan Shao, and governed Jizhou together with Yuan Shao. He was really selling the state to seek glory! Please help us to send troops to recapture Jizhou, and save the people of Jizhou from fire and water. After this is done,
I would like to give Cao Cao three counties in Jizhou." Geng Wu stood up and said to Cao Cao, and Guan Rui followed closely and asked Cao Cao.
After hearing this, Cao Cao sneered inwardly, Haha, three counties? What's the difference between yours and that Han Fu? It's just a pity, what I want is the entire Jizhou!
"Oh, this is not easy to handle. After all, Han Fu made his own decision. Even if I have this intention, there is no reason for anything to happen!" Cao Cao politely refused.
"Gong Cao, it is none other than Cao Cao who can defeat Yuan Shao. The immortal predicted that Cao Cao will defeat Yuan Shao in the future. This is God's will. Cao Cao is just obeying God's will!" Geng Wu had already found a reason for Cao Cao, that is, obeying God's will.
.
"Hahaha, two generals, don't be anxious. The matter of sending troops is not a trivial matter and requires long-term planning. Why don't you stay in Cao's camp temporarily and let me and a few gentlemen discuss it together." Cao Cao suggested.
He wants Jizhou, but not now. The primary goal should be Xuzhou first!
After hearing this, Geng Wu and Guan Dun had no choice but to give up and temporarily live in Cao Ying.
