Chapter 958
Soon, Lu Bu's distress letter was sent to Xuzhou.

Tao Qian originally wanted to send troops to rescue Lv Bu, but at this time Chen Deng suddenly persuaded him: "Lv Bu is a jackal. Killing Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo is against publicity. Now that you are righteous and righteous, accepting him and Xiao Pei is a kindness from heaven. Lu Bu didn't want to repay him. Instead, he made friends with Duke Ming's subordinates, with evil intentions. Now that Cao Cao is attacking, Lu Bu, as Xiaopei's guard, naturally wants to share his worries for Duke Ming, and fight Cao Cao bloodily to repay his favor. But now that the battle has just begun, Lu Bu So I couldn’t wait to ask Ming Gong to send troops to help, which shows that he has no determination to fight with Cao Cao. In addition, the garrison in Xuzhou is insufficient. Once the troops are divided, if Cao Ren from the north goes south, Xuzhou will be in danger.”

Lu Bu is Cao Bao's son-in-law. The Cao family and the Chen family have always been at odds, so Chen Deng naturally wants to obstruct it.

Tao Qian was originally a person who had no idea, but he changed his mind immediately after hearing Chen Deng's words.

"If it wasn't for Yuanlong's reminder, the old man would almost be confused."

He slapped his thigh, turned around and said to his opponent, "Quickly tell Lu Bu's envoy that Xuzhou is short of troops, and Cao Ren is about to go south. He really can't draw any troops. Let Lu Bu support it first. After the old man beats Cao Ren back, he will naturally give his all. Go save Xiaopei."

If you talk inside and outside, you will not help Xiaopei.

The envoy had no choice but to go back, so he had to go to Cao Bao's house.

Cao Bao is in the barracks, not at the mansion.

The messenger had to wait at the mansion.

In the evening, when Cao Bao came back from the barracks, the envoys greeted him immediately.

"General Cao, hurry up and save General Lu!"

He immediately told about Lu Bu's siege.

what?
Hearing Tao Qian's refusal to send troops to rescue Lu Bu, Cao Bao stomped his feet angrily.

"Master Mushou is confused!"

He immediately rushed to the governor's mansion to meet Tao Qian.

"Ming Gong, Xiaopei is the frontier of Xuzhou. If Cao Cao wants to enter Yunzhou, he must first defeat Xiaopei. General Lu's troops are too small, and it is not impossible to resist for a long time. If we don't send troops to help, once Xiaopei is defeated by Xuzhou Break through, and Cao Cao's soldiers will point directly at the city of Xuzhou. We must save Xiaopei, only in this way can we strengthen General Lu's confidence in defending the city."

This……

Hearing what Cao Bao said, Tao Qian lost his mind again.

"However, Xuzhou's troops are insufficient. What if we divide our troops and Cao Ren fights back?"

My Lord Shepherd!

Cao Bao stamped his feet and said: "Cao Ren only has [-] soldiers and horses, and now he is being dragged around Mount Tai by Zang Ba and others. It is nothing to worry about. The most important thing right now is to save Xiaopei. Lord Mu Shou is hesitant. General Lu’s misunderstanding made him think that Xuzhou had no intention of helping Xiaopei, and if he led his troops to retreat, Xiaopei would surely fall into Cao Cao’s hands. At that time, Xuzhou would definitely be severely attacked by Cao Cao.”

Lu Bu is not a good man and a believer. If Tao Qian didn't save Xiaopei, he would definitely not work for Tao Qian.

In order to preserve his strength, he will inevitably choose to withdraw from Xiaopei and invest elsewhere, and then Xuzhou will fall into a passive position.

Although Cao Bao is married to Lu Bu, he still knows Lu Bu's character very well. Of course, he is not thinking of Lu Bu, but for his own safety.

Once Xuzhou is broken, the Cao family will not be spared.

Ah!
Hearing this, Tao Qian couldn't help but be smart.

Chen Deng missed me!

He couldn't help but yelled, and now he felt a little regretful.

In case Lu Bu gets angry and runs away, who will help him block Cao Cao?

Tao Qian hurriedly said, "According to what General Cao has seen, what should we do?"

Cao Bao pondered for a while, and said: "This subordinate led [-] troops and horses to Xingye to Xiao County. First, it can give Xiaopei's General Lu confidence, and second, it can make Cao Cao feel the pressure and cannot let go of the attack."

Now, that's a compromise.

good good!
Tao Qian naturally had no reason not to agree.

"General Cao, according to what you said, send [-] troops to Xiao County. But..."

He paused, and said: "General Cao is the mainstay of Xuzhou, you must not move lightly, let others go."

Cao Bao also knew that Tao Qian would not let him go out easily, so he could only nod at the moment.

So Tao Qian sent his subordinate Ruo Rong to lead an army of [-] troops to Xiao County.

Ruo Rong is also from Danyang, and he is a fellow villager with Tao Qian, so he has Tao Qian's trust.

This person is a devout Buddhist. He built a Buddhist temple and took in a large number of monks. He did evil and evil.

After Ruo Rong entered Xiao County, he immediately guarded the city and did not leave the city. He drank and had fun every day, and ignored Xiaopei's affairs.

Lu Bu sent people to ask for help several times, but they were all stopped by this fellow.

……

Asshole Tao Qian!

Lu Bu was furious!
Cao Cao had been besieging the city for three days, and both sides invested [-] to [-] troops. Cao's army came prepared and brought a large amount of siege equipment. Lu Bu suffered heavy losses.

"Gongtai, old thief Tao Qian is deliberately asking us to fight Cao Cao to the death. Lu will never sacrifice his life for him. Tomorrow, the Japanese general will break through the south gate and escort the family to Huainan."

Lu Bu said angrily.

He was not Tao Qian's subordinate, and it was an expedient measure for Xiaopei. Now that Cao Cao's attack is tight, Tao Qian has no assistance. If he continues to fight, he will lose his last family fortune.

Yuan Shu in Huainan has been recruiting Lu Bu, but Lu Bu doesn't like Yuan Shu, plus he has soldiers and food in Xiaopei, so there is no reason to go to Huainan to see his face.

But now that Xiaopei is in danger, Lu Bu is thinking of going to Huainan again.

"General Lu, don't worry!"

Chen Gong waved his hand and said, "The reason why Yuan Shu summoned him was because of Xiaopei's dangerous location and General Lu's strong army. Yuan Shu also wanted to weaken Tao Qian's strength. Now that General Lu's defeated army is on the same side, Yuan Shu will definitely not take him seriously."

He followed Lu Bu all the way here, so naturally he didn't want Lu Bu to be sent to others.

snort!
Lu Bu also nodded.

This time and that time, going to Huainan now will definitely not be welcome.

"How about we make peace with Cao Cao?"

Lu Bu hesitated for a moment and said.

In fact, speaking of it, the two of them don't have any mortal hatred.

No!

Chen Gong flatly refused.

The reason why he opposed Cao Cao at the beginning was because of his old opinion.

Zhang Miao and Cao Cao are good friends who can entrust their wives. When Cao Cao was in trouble in the past, it was thanks to Zhang Miao for his help.

Later, when Cao Cao made his fortune and became the shepherd of Yanzhou, the first thing he did was not to repay his old friend, but to find a way to take Zhang Miao aside and control Chenliu where Zhang Miao was.

Zhang Miao's old departments were transferred out one by one, and they were basically in a void.

Bian Rang from the same county couldn't stand it anymore, so he stood up and said a few words, but Cao Cao actually instructed someone to falsely accuse Bian Rang and kill him.

The death of Bian Rang completely chilled everyone in Chen Liu.

Zhang Miao conspired with Chen Gong to welcome Lu Bu into Yanzhou when Cao Cao was attacking Zhangxiu, and almost occupied Yanzhou for a time.

Frustrated by Cao Cao, Zhang Miao committed suicide, and Chen Gong fled to Xuzhou with Lu Bu.

The reason is that Cao Cao is ungrateful!
Therefore, Chen Gong will never return to Cao Cao's side.
