Chapter 739 We did encounter some trouble
Chapter 739 We did encounter some trouble
Cao Ang returned to the military tent. He was a little confused about Yuan Tan's next plan, but since Yuan Tan had spoken out his words, he had to do what he asked.
"You go out first!" Cao Ang waved his hand to signal the soldiers around him to leave. He wanted to chat with Yuan Tan alone to see if he could get something out of him.
"Lord?" The soldier standing next to Cao Ang showed hesitation.
After all, these are extraordinary times. What if something unexpected happens?
Moreover, Cao Ang is still injured. Although Cao Ang himself said it's okay, who knows?
"It's okay! Get out now!"
Cao Ang waved his hand to signal the other party to leave quickly, and then picked up the things he had put away before and stuffed them under the quilt.
After the surroundings returned to silence again, Cao Ang breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, this is a war era, and there are various dangers in many places.
What's more, Yuan Tan is considered to be in great power at this time, so Cao Ang does not dare to take it lightly. He just hopes that this guy can stay calm and not make trouble all day long.
"I want to see what you have in mind," Cao Ang said with a sneer, then closed his eyes and prepared to recharge his batteries.
However, after a while, Cao Ang suddenly opened his eyes because he smelled a strong fragrance that made people swallow their saliva and even made their heads feel dizzy.
"Is this Ecstasy?" Cao Ang reacted instantly, then his face changed slightly, he immediately sat up straight and covered his nostrils with his hands.
No matter which country it is, Ecstasy is still one of the most popular items, especially in wars. The usage rate of Ecstasy is much higher than that of poison.
"Hmph! I don't know whether to live or die!" Cao Ang was not panicked, but had a mocking look on his face.
If Cao Ang was really a weakling, he would have been stunned long ago, and as a former top adviser.
Cao Ang is experienced in this kind of thing, just relying on the fragrance and the odor wafting in the air.
He was sure that this was Ecstasy, at least this dose had no effect on him.
"Haha, this kind of thing is not difficult for me. It seems that there are still people in this military camp who want my life."
Cao Ang squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then took out a bottle of detoxification pills from his arms and fed himself two pills.
After taking the detoxification pills, Cao Ang leaned on the bed and waited for Yuan Tan's arrival. After all, Yuan Tan took the initiative to see him, so Cao Ang naturally had to cooperate with him.
Soon Cao Ang heard footsteps coming from outside, and then there was a knock on the door.
Then Cao Ang took a step forward and opened the curtain of the tent.
"What's the important thing for visiting late at night?" Cao Ang asked with a smile as he looked at Yuan Tan standing at the door.
"Please come in!" Cao Ang said with his head tilted, Yuan Tan stepped into the tent, and then closed the tent door to block the view of the outside world.
"I have been discussing with my advisor for a long time today. I think we should act as soon as possible."
Yuan Tan said calmly, "I have bribed a group of generals. When the time comes, they will help us conquer Xuzhou."
"Oh." Cao Ang raised his eyebrows. Yuan Tan's intention was already quite obvious.
But their opponent is actually an old fox. If they really fight, Yuan Tan may not be able to win.
Therefore, Yuan Tan wanted to find someone to share the pressure for him, but Cao Ang knew that the other party's intelligence network had completely collapsed.
Moreover, during this period, Yuan Tan was busy governing Yanzhou and could not mobilize enough troops to defend the northern area of Yanzhou. "Master Cao, you can't let me defend the northern area of Yanzhou by myself. I'm not good at defending the city."
Cao Ang looked at Yuan Tan with a smile and said, "I am just a ranger. I don't want to get involved in disputes, so I advise you to find another way."
When Yuan Tan heard this, his face couldn't help but change, and then he sighed.
"Master Cao, to be honest, Yanzhou is no longer safe and we must retreat as soon as possible.
And I also know Mr. Cao’s situation, so Mr. Cao also needs my help, right? I am willing to hand over all the money I can spare to Mr. Cao. "
"This." Cao Ang was silent for a while, "I really can't get involved in Yanzhou's affairs, but if I remember correctly.
Yanzhou's grain and grass reserves are still sufficient. I think there should be no crisis in the northern area of Yanzhou. "
"Sigh." Yuan Tan shook his head. He knew that Cao Ang was right. Yanzhou's grain reserves were indeed sufficient compared to before.
Even in the past few years when he was in power, Yanzhou's granaries were basically full.
Unfortunately, Yanzhou’s accumulation over the years is not enough to sustain the consumption of an army of three or four hundred thousand.
"If Mr. Cao is willing, I can give you an army." Yuan Tan said through gritted teeth.
In the northern area of Yanzhou, Yuan Tan really didn't want to lose, so the situation forced him to offer an olive branch to Cao Ang.
"Huh?" Cao Ang was stunned. Yuan Tan was willing to give him soldiers. This was quite rare.
"This is the most powerful cavalry under my command, and it is also the only legion I can offer. Mr. Cao must accept it." Yuan Tan said solemnly, "I will not treat any ally badly."
"Ha, why are you so polite?" Cao Ang said with a smile.
"This is the promise I can give." Yuan Tan stared at Cao Ang and said seriously. He was indeed sincere.
This is the logic of the family. As long as it is profitable, they will invest resources without hesitation, regardless of the so-called risks.
Cao Ang looked at Yuan Tan and then changed the subject, "Speaking of which, you are so anxious to see me. Did something happen?"
"We did encounter some trouble." Yuan Tan sighed.
"What's wrong?" Cao Ang asked curiously.
Although Cao Ang knew that there was something wrong with Yuan Tan before, he didn't know what the specific problem was.
What's more, all Cao Ang needs is the power in Yuan Tan's hands, and he doesn't bother to pay attention to other things.
"There is something wrong with Cao Hong. He has lost control and has given up our previous cooperation." Yuan Tan said bitterly, "I'm afraid he wants to betray the Cao family."
Cao Ang was stunned for a moment, then nodded to express his understanding. Among the successors of the Cao family, Cao Hong is the most powerful being.
And this kind of strength also brought him a natural arrogance, which also led Cao Hong to often do some incredible things.
"Master Cao, with all due respect, Cao Hong is not suitable to be the leader of the family." Cao Ang thought for a while and said.
"His talent is indeed excellent, but he is too violent and cannot tolerate the slightest flaw."
