Chapter 245

Cao Cao arrived outside Lu Xuan's camp and quickly entered the Chinese army's tent to see Lu Xuan. At this moment, when Cao Cao looked at Lu Xuan's eyes, he not only felt the joy of his father-in-law seeing his son-in-law, but also the admiration of a prince.

In the face of interests, it is common for father and son to turn against each other, and for brothers to kill each other. Not everyone can control the greed in their hearts.

Chen Gong placed Yanzhou in front of Lu Xuan. As long as Lu Xuan nodded, everything would be fine.

However, Lu Xuan refused.

Cao Cao looked very complicated and stood in the tent without speaking for a while.

Lu Xuan was shocked.

Did Cao Cao lose his mind and go crazy?

Why does his expression change suddenly, giving people an extremely weird look?

Lu Xuan asked: "Father-in-law, what's wrong with you?"

Cao Cao came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I already know that Chen Gong tried to trick you into seizing Yanzhou, but you refused. You clearly had the opportunity to seize Yanzhou, but you chose to give up. I want to thank you."

Lu Xuan shook his head and said: "There is no need to thank you for Chen Gong's affairs. I do it for myself."

Cao Cao looked moved and said solemnly: "If you are doing it for yourself and your own interests, you can join forces with Lu Bu to plot against me, and then use Chen Gong to plot against Lu Bu. In the battlefield, you will use all possible means to capture Yanzhou."

Lu Xuan smiled in his heart when he saw Cao Cao's moved and serious expression.

This is interesting.

Unexpectedly, Boss Cao was moved.

This is an opportunity to get further benefits from Boss Cao, and Lu Xuan doesn't mind the benefits anyway.

Lu Xuan took advantage of the situation and said: "I didn't want anything from you from the beginning, I just wanted to have a clear conscience. Therefore, there is no need for my father-in-law to thank you."

Cao Cao said: "My dear son-in-law, you are short of war horses and need cavalry who are proficient in riding skills, so I have brought you Lu Bu's prisoners and war horses. I have picked out the remaining nearly a thousand war horses and more than two thousand strong ones."

All for you."

"really?"

Lu Xuan's eyes widened.

Cao Cao has always been a person who only gets in and out. He is a man of spirit. He actually gave him all Lu Bu's supplies. The sun really shines in the west. It's so strange.

Cao Cao said firmly: "The prisoners and war horses have been sent outside the camp. You just need to arrange for someone to take them over."

"Let's go and have a look."

Lu Xuan suddenly became interested.

He hurriedly led Cao Cao out of the Chinese army's tent and came to the gate of the camp. His eyes were bright when he saw all the prisoners in custody, as well as all the horses and prisoners in custody.

Lu Xuan didn't waste any time and quickly ordered: "Whoever comes, tell Zhang Liao to come over."

The soldiers went to inform.

Not long after, Zhang Liao came in a hurry.

He had just finished reorganizing the prisoners in the camp and was re-adjusting his structure when Lu Xuan came with an order.

Zhang Liao walked up to Lu Xuan, cupped his fists and said, "Lord!"

Lu Xuan ordered: "Wen Yuan, my father-in-law has sent Marquis Wen's horses and prisoners. You and your people will receive and reorganize them all."

"As you command!"

Zhang Liao responded with clasped fists.

However, Zhang Liao glanced at Cao Cao, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Is Cao Cao stupid?

Don't even want these elites.

Zhang Liao didn't think much about it. He accepted it anyway and took his people to reorganize quickly.

Cao Cao noticed that Zhang Liao looked at him like a fool, and when he saw the busy Zhang Liao, he still felt a little reluctant in his heart. After all, Lu Bu's Bingzhou cavalry were all elite soldiers, and neither the cavalry nor the infantry were as good as his.

Qingzhou's troops are weak.

Lu Xuan smiled and said: "Father-in-law, how about I leave some for you? I'll leave you three hundred horses and give you a few hundred soldiers."

Cao Cao rolled his eyes and said, "You are so stingy and stingy, it's better not to give it."

Lu Xuandao: "I also learned from my father-in-law."

Cao Cao snorted and said, "If I were stingy, I wouldn't send anyone to you."

Lu Xuan looked at the horses and prisoners with satisfaction and said: "Well, my father-in-law's family has a great business. I don't like this, so I will accept it all. Yangzhou is a bitter and cold place. There are bandits and bandits everywhere. It's very uncomfortable."

Easy. My father-in-law took care of me and helped me a lot."

Cao Cao's brows jumped when he heard this.

He stroked his sleeves and put down his hand again.

Lu Xuan deserves a beating.

If Yangzhou was a land of bitter cold, Youzhou in the north would probably have to live in a world of ice and snow all day long. If Yangzhou was a land of bitter cold, his Yanzhou would really be full of starvation and corpses.

Cao Cao had long heard that there were very few bandits in Yangzhou, and the refugees who had gone there were all reorganized by Lu Xuan, who was very powerful.

Cao Cao was originally very grateful to Lu Xuan.

This moment is gone forever.

Cao Cao waved his hand and said: "Xian son-in-law, you go about your business, I'm leaving."

Lu Xuan cupped his hands and said, "Father-in-law, walk slowly."

Cao Cao left impatiently. At this time, Xu Shu came. Seeing Zhang Liao busy, he asked: "My lord, what is going on?"

Lu Xuan said: "Cao Cao interrogated Chen Gong and learned that I refused Chen Gong's inducement. He felt guilty and extremely grateful, so he personally delivered this batch of supplies."

When Xu Shu heard this, he gave a thumbs up and praised: "My lord refused Chen Gong, which not only fulfilled my personal righteousness, but also gained benefits. When the news spread, who in the world would not respect my lord? My lord is far-sighted, strategizing, and humbled by his position."

.”

Lu Xuan looked at Xu Shu's admiration and blinked. When he rejected Chen Gong, Lu Xuan simply didn't want to sacrifice his credibility and didn't think too much about it.

He didn't expect that a shrewd man like Cao Cao would be bold and sentimental.

Lu Xuan's eyes were intriguing and he smiled and said: "Yuan Zhi, as a counselor, of course you have to take one step at a time and count the number of steps. The art of war says that the one who counts the most is more likely to win. That's it. As a counselor, you must also consider the long term when making plans, and you cannot be obsessed with one city.

The gains and losses of one place must be considered from the overall perspective.”

Xu Shu was sincerely convinced and said: "In this humble position, please remember your lord's teachings."

Lu Xuan looked high-spirited, turned around and left.

Returning to the Chinese army's tent, Lu Xuan called Huang Zhong and Jiang Qin, asked about the officers' meritorious service, and asked them to record the officers' meritorious deeds.

Lu Xuan walked around the camp again, visiting the injured soldiers, and it was getting dark.

A night of silence.

The next day, early morning.

Lu Xuan's soldiers had breakfast, quickly packed their luggage, and prepared to leave. When Lu Xuan and his men left the camp and were about to leave, they saw smoke and dust rising from the direction of Puyang County, and Cao Cao came with his men.

Cao Cao came to the gate of Lu Xuan's camp. When he saw Lu Xuan, he rode his horse forward and said, "Xian son-in-law, thank you for your rescue during this crisis in Yanzhou. I hope that our alliance will last forever."

Lu Xuan smiled and said: "Father-in-law, how can two princes coexist since ancient times? Between countries, it is interests to maintain. The same is true between princes. But father-in-law, don't worry, in the future, I will defeat you

, I will definitely let you fulfill your childhood wish, let you ride on the Helan Mountains, and imitate Huo Qubing in conquering the Western Regions."

Cao Cao couldn't help laughing and said: "If you can do it, I don't mind going to conquer the Western Regions. But I'm afraid you don't have the ability. The mountains are high and the road is far, so take care of yourself. I hope to see you on the battlefield.

I still feel like a father-in-law."

Lu Xuan replied: "When fighting on the battlefield, everyone has their own position. This is a public matter. The relationship between father-in-law and son-in-law is a private matter. The relationship between father-in-law and I will not change!"

"Farewell!"

Lu Xuan bowed his hands and gave the order to set off.

The army left in a mighty manner.

Cao Cao looked at Lu Xuan's leaving figure, and his dark face revealed a hint of pride and ambition.

He is not weaker than Lu Xuan.

He, Cao Cao, is not weaker than others.

Cao Cao looked at Xi Zhicai beside him and ordered: "Zhicai, we will retake Yanzhou as soon as possible according to the original plan. Time is running out, we have to speed up. Otherwise, wouldn't it be embarrassing to lose to Lu Xuan?"

"Here!"

Xi Zhicai also answered with clasped fists.

He glanced at Lu Xuan who was walking away. Although Lu Xuan was powerful, they were not weak either.
