Lu's relatives

Chapter 170 The Handsome Flag Can Be Folded, Qin Xu Arrives Slowly

"My lord, the city of Xiapi is already ten miles ahead. According to reports from scouts, there is no movement in the city. Do you want the soldiers to set up camp and rest for a while, and then attack again in the morning?" At dusk, Cao Cao made this determination Xuehen's "revenge" army had already arrived outside Xiapi City, and Li Dian went to the carriage to ask Cao Cao for instructions.

This time Cao Ren took advantage of Cao Cao's dizziness and dizziness due to the news of Cao Song's murder. Out of selfishness, he deliberately concealed the news about Lu Bu. , the matter is a foregone conclusion, and I also know that I have made a big mistake this time, so I dare not continue to hide it. At this time, I am kneeling in the car to plead guilty to Cao Cao, who is slightly sicker.

"Since Xiapi has arrived, it's useless to talk more, get up! Could it be that you still begged someone to kill you?" After Cao Cao heard Cao Ren's confession, it was not because Cao Ren was so incapable of handling military affairs this time. He went into a rage because of exceeding his authority, but his expression was calm. After listening to Li Dian's report, he looked at the brother of his own family who was kneeling beside him, and said to Cao Ren quite indifferently: "On weekdays, I only hear Then Lu Bu can tolerate Qin Xu's overstepping his power many times, so he can become the current situation in Qingzhou. Could it be that Cao is not as good as that guy! Don't say it is you, it is because he learned that Lu Bu ignored the affairs of Qingzhou and meddled in Regarding the incident in Xuzhou, it is impossible to say that we have to contact our ally. Besides, this time, a certain illness entrusted Zixiao to take charge of the army on behalf of the army, as the commander of the army. Zixiao, you are the one who decides what to do. Please forgive me I have to mention it again, it’s not as good as Lu Bu’s tolerance to let others laugh at me! I’m not going to mention this matter again, it’s just Cao’s order, and I’ll tell Mancheng to rest in camp and get enough energy, and we’ll meet tomorrow Na Lu Fengxian!"

"Thank you, my lord, for your innocence! Benevolence... even if you are so heartless, you can't repay it!" Cao Ren thought that even if Cao Cao looked at the face of his fellow relatives, it would hinder the march of the army, and even if he didn't kill him immediately To be a warning to others, he would punish and reprimand to some extent, but he did not expect that Cao Cao would compare this matter with the matter of Lu Bu and Qin Xu in Qingzhou. He picked it up high and put it down lightly. He said gratefully: "Just judging from the speed of the Yellow Turban bandits and rebels who besieged Xiapi before Lu Bu's defeat this time, it is beyond everyone's expectations. It is reported that although the troops they brought are all infantry, they are very powerful. It took less than an hour for more than 7 people to solve the attack of more than [-] bandits who ordered the Danyang elite soldiers in Xiapi City to hold on for more than half a month. Our army has only a few thousand horses and [-] infantry this time. , This...is the last general who underestimated the enemy before!"

"Zixiao's words are worried that this mourning soldier will not be able to match Lu Bu's new victorious tiger and wolf?" Cao Cao tightened the white silk on his head to make his head more comfortable, leaning against the carriage wall and forced a smile: "Zixiao has been in the game for a long time, but he has never been afraid of anyone on the battlefield? How can he be so afraid of Lu Bu, who was lucky enough to win the game several times with tricks? Not to mention that Qingyan belongs to the alliance, We take Xuzhou in the name of righteousness. If Lu Bu intervenes, he will inevitably be suspected of treason. His reputation accumulated in Qingzhou may be in vain, so it may not be possible to fight this time. Besides, even if Regardless of Qingzhou's current appetite, Lu Bu really wanted to join in and get a share of the action. So what if he completely turned against Cao? This is Xuzhou, not the unnamed valley, and it's not outside Jinan, so there's no room for Lu Bu to play any tricks Just relying on his more than [-] newly recruited soldiers, fighting head-to-head, it is too much to think of defeating me and other warriors! Is it possible that Zixiao will not want to win back the battle with dignity on the battlefield? How many times has Lu Bu come?"

"My lord taught me a lesson! Ren has been taught!" Cao Ren was aroused by Cao Cao's words. The accumulated fighting spirit surged in Cao Ren's heart. Isn't that why he concealed Lu Bu's news without authorization before?But as if he was still worried about something, he lowered his head and said: "It's just that my lord came to Xuzhou in the name of avenging my uncle this time. There is a hindrance in attacking Xiapi City in Xuzhou, so what if Lu Bu takes this opportunity to threaten the Lord with the eldest son who is still in Qingzhou?"

"Even if Cao said before that he would kill Xuzhou to avenge his father, so what? Has anyone actually seen someone kill someone during this trip? It's just to frighten Xuzhou's counties! Of course, if someone wants to try Cao A certain honesty, a certain one is not afraid to bear such a bad name, so I really killed these people to see! It's just that this time I might wrong Anger..." Cao Cao heard Cao Ren say this, and a trace of annoyance flashed across his face, and the incident happened. The attack was too sudden and had disrupted Cao Cao's overall plan.Originally, when Lu Bu borrowed his way to Yanzhou, he had set up a big game of chess with the ambition of the world, but because of various uncertain factors, there were too many variables.As a result of several confrontations, they had to let go of their posture and first made great efforts to stabilize the relationship between Qingyan and Yanzhou. They made friends with Yuan Shao who was busy with the war in Hebei and had no time to go south. Only then did the rear have no worries and return to normal.Only when Yuzhou, Sili and other places have been put down with all their strength, and enough strength has been accumulated, they can carry out the "big event" discussed with Xi Zhicai, Mao Jie and others as early as the beginning, and carry out the shocking move.At that time, not to mention Lu Bu in Qingzhou, the entire Central Plains including Xuzhou will be under the control of Cao Cao, and it will be very easy to get.For this unspeakable big goal, Cao Cao even got involved with his own eldest son. Seeing that things gradually proceeded step by step according to the established plan, Qingyan stopped fighting and made peace, and most of Yuzhou fell into the trap. Such a thing happened.So when Cao Ren mentioned Cao Ang, Cao Cao was in a daze for a long time, but he stopped talking and said, "Lv Bu dare not do anything to Ang'er, let alone these things. I have been recuperating in the car for the past few days, and I am very depressed. , Zixiao helped someone go down to the camp to have a look!"

"This... promise! This season is warm and cold, and the night wind is blowing again, please be more careful, my lord!" Cao Ren didn't know what Cao Cao was thinking, and even though Cao Cao used the precedent of Lu Bu and Qin Xu to explain the previous incident I forgave myself, but after all, the impact of this matter was too great, so I didn't dare to follow the advice of the general Chinese medicine practitioners in the army, and advised Cao Cao that he should not get off the car when he was ill.Just as he was about to help Cao Cao get out of the car, he suddenly heard a commotion among the former army.

"Could it be possible that someone still dares to attack Cao's camp at night?" Cao Ren didn't wait for Cao Cao's order, jumped out of the carriage, drew his sword, and guarded the carriage.

"What's going on?" Seeing Cao Ren's appearance as if he was facing an enemy, Cao Cao leaned out of the car with his head covered, his face full of pain, and asked.

"General Cao, uh...my lord!" Li Dian was sent by Cao Ren to send an order to set up camp before. A little incident happened in the army, but I didn't expect to disturb the lord!"

"What is it that almost caused the danger of the camp?" Cao Cao was not so easy to fool, seeing Li Dian's face was quite anxious before, but he chose to say it was a trivial matter, and asked in a deep voice.

"No!" Li Dian glanced at Cao Cao and Cao Ren cautiously, pursed his lips, and said, "The last general ordered the whole army to set up camp to rest, but unexpectedly, the lord Dalu in front of the large tent of the Chinese army that was just built suddenly appeared in front of him." In front of all the soldiers of the army, there was a sudden and strange wind blowing away for no reason, so there was suspicion in the army, and there were many discussions."

"The strange wind broke the big beetle of the Chinese army?" Cao Cao's face, which was slightly distorted because of the unbearable headache, became even more livid.No wonder there is a lot of noise in this army. Since ancient times, when marching and folding flags, the words of the main army's soldiers in danger have been forbidden in the army.But this is just a legend, who would have expected it to actually happen.Could it be that the incident in Xuzhou this time was really something that could not be done because of Lu Bu's involvement?Seeing Cao Cao's livid face, Cao Ren and Li Dian, Cao Cao's confidant generals, did not dare to take a breath, and waited helplessly for Cao Cao's decision.In particular, Cao Ren, who blamed himself for falsely passing on Cao Cao's military order, which brought the army here, was even more ashamed.

"Report, my lord, General Cao, General Li, in front of our barracks, someone claimed to be an envoy from Qingzhou, and asked to see the lord by name, how to deal with it, I ask the lord to decide!" Cao Ren and Li Dian were on the verge of breaking the flag of the Chinese army. While waiting anxiously for Cao Cao to write, suddenly Li Dian's Tan Ma came to report again.

"Qingzhou? Lu Bu's envoy?"Just now, when the army's morale was not stable, Lv Bu sent an envoy from Lao Shizi to join in the fun. Cao Ren's expression remained unchanged, and he took a hard look at Cao Cao, who was not feeling well, and said, "Do you know who came here?" , How many people did you bring?"

"Yes..." Tan Ma glanced at Cao Ren who was questioning the question with a little bit of flickering, he hesitated and dared not say anything, and under Cao Ren's staring several times, he boldly said: "The visitor only brought one guard. , claiming to be the Shaofu of Qingzhou Mufu, the master of Zuo General's residence, and his surname is Qin!"

"Qin Xu? How dare you come here alone? My lord, wait for someone to chop off this stick!" Even a blind man could see the ferocious look on Cao Ren's face full of surprise.If you want to say who the old Cao family hates the most, I am afraid that Lu Bu, who is the chief administrative and military officer of Qingzhou, may have to be in the back row.In the battle of Wuming Valley, Cao Cao and Cao Ren panicked, and Xia Houyuan was injured in the ban and chaos; Cao Ren and Cao Chun were captured by surprise in the battle of Jinan; He teased his lord by ridiculing and teasing his lord, until Linzi also caught up with a Xiahoudun who was also captured and humiliated; in the end Qingyan peace talks, even Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang came to Linzi as a hostage in the name of studying!One by one, Yanzhou was damaged up and down, and Cao Jun's generals were ashamed. Even the instigator who was wary of fighting with Lu Bu at this moment, that tooth that makes people hate when they think about it, only wants to Qin Xu, who would have liked to find a chance to kill him, dared to come alone this time?Is it possible that Cao Cao's army of nearly [-] is really nothing after eating the bear's heart and leopard's courage?Too arrogant!
"General Zixiao! It is said that the two countries will not be beheaded when they fight! Do not kill lightly! Besides, Qingyan and Yanzhou belong to the alliance, so don't let the name of the lord be weakened for nothing! Besides, Qin Xu dared to come alone, There must be something to rely on, the general must not be careless!" Before Cao Cao could speak, Li Dian hurriedly hugged Cao Ren who was about to run away after hearing Qin Xu's name, and said hastily.

"Zi Xiao, as a general, you are most afraid of impetuousness, and you need to learn more about this restraint from Mancheng!" Cao Cao took a deep breath, and was quite helpless with the temper of his brother. .Cao Ren was extremely impulsive when he was young, but since he came to Cao Cao's side, he gradually calmed down a lot, as if he had changed his temper, and became calm and law-abiding, which Cao Cao was amazed at.Seeing that Cao Ren, who was like Qin Xu, had reverted to his old ways, Cao Cao had no choice but to say a few words to Cao Ren, his expression calmed down, and he tore off the white silk belt on his head, with a bit of sarcasm Concerned, he ordered lightly: "Lv Bu seems to be quite interested in our army's coming to Xuzhou. A certain person has just set up camp, and this Qin Xu man has arrived. Anyway, Mancheng, you go and invite the Qin Lord. Go to the big tent of the Chinese army and wait a while, I want to see what this sharp-tongued baby has to say this time! Could it be possible to say that so-and-so retreats?"

"No!" The sarcasm in Cao Cao's words finally calmed down the uncontrollable anger in Cao Ren's heart, and he followed Cao Cao with a livid face, heading towards the big tent of the Chinese army that had finally calmed down the general's heart. Let's see what Qin Xu's intentions are for the Xuzhou matter when Qin Xu is here!

Cao Ren's mood is actually understandable, just based on the losses he suffered in the battle with Lu Bu's army before, Qin Xu's figure appeared in it, and some of them were even created by this fellow.Qin Xu is now considered a taboo topic among Cao Jun's forces.I don't know if Cao Jun knows that even Cao Hong, who disappeared inexplicably, was killed at the hands of this Chief Qin, will Cao Cao make Cao Ren still restrain himself...
