Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Cao Cao assassinated Dong, and I was abandoned

"Who is willing to go to Jizhou to negotiate terms with that bastard?" Lu Bu looked at the three of them depressedly.

Jia Kui looked at Chen Gong, and said, "Leave this to me. I've been with Cao Shuo a few times, and I'm quite familiar with his style of doing things."

"Okay, then Liang Dao will take another trip to Jizhou."

Although Lu Bu was heartbroken about his own resources, if he didn't redeem Zhang Liao and others, no matter how many resources he had, it would be cheaper for others in the end.

Chen Gong took a sip of wine and said meaningfully: "Has Marquis Wen considered places other than Bingzhou?"

Lu Bu asked puzzledly, "What does Gongtai mean by that?"

Chen Gong explained: "If our army loses Bingzhou, what will Marquis Wen consider? Going to Cao Shuo, or..."

Chen Gong didn't continue talking, but left Lu Bu a lot of space to play, let's see what Lu Bu planned to do in the future.

"Take care of Cao Shuo? Hmph, even if this kid begs me, I won't take refuge with him!"

When Lü Bu thought of Cao Shuo, he wished he could stab him to death with a halberd and humiliated him time and time again.

"Has the lord ever thought about the west side?"

Chapter 257 I don't know what kind of official position I can take if I surrender?

When Zhen Tuo was discussing with Dian Wei which section would be suitable, Cao Shuo came out from inside and straightened his messy clothes.

Then he glanced at the female Taoist priest named Li Feihua and said, "You said you are from Xizhou Yiqian Palace?"

"Exactly!" Li Feihua looked at Cao Shuo arrogantly.

"How many Taoist priests do you have in Yiqian Palace?"

Li Feihua asked vigilantly, "Why are you asking this?"

Cao Shuo said coldly: "Cultivate your immortals honestly, if you dare to harass me again, I will lead an army to destroy Xizhou!"

"You..." Li Feihua was so angry that he couldn't speak, he didn't expect this person to dare to threaten them in Xizhou.

Cao Shuo waved to Dian Wei, and Dian Wei quickly came to Cao Shuo's side and asked, "What's the matter, my lord?"

"Send your hands to Yanzhou!"

"promise!"

Dian Wei grabbed her head and slipped away.

"You, what are you going to do?"

"I am Zhao Aier's uncle, if you dare to treat me like this, I will never let Zhao Aier go."

Cao Shuo ignored the lunatic, looked at Lu Wen and said, "The next time you meet this kind of person, if you think you can kill him, you will kill him."

Then he ordered the army to move out and arrive at Luoyang before dark. When Cao Shuo's army arrived in Luoyang, it was already late at night, and there was only a little more than a day left before Dong Zhuo became emperor.

In the early morning of the next day, I came to the big tent for discussion and asked Xu Chu to bring all the generals here.

After a while, Gongsun Zan, Gongsun Yue, Gongsun Fan, Gongsun Xu, Zhang Liao, Zhang Yang, Hao Meng, Wei Yue, and Pang De were escorted by a group of tiger guards.

Cao Shuo looked at several people and asked, "Do you want to join me in Jizhou?"

Gongsun Zan hesitated for a moment, and asked, "I take refuge in you, am I a civil servant or a military officer?"

This is what Gongsun Zan is most concerned about. He is only 50 or [-] years old now, and he doesn't want to retire so soon. Since he became a prisoner, Cao Shuo has treated him well.

If it wasn't for Gongsun Baoyue's face, I'm afraid Cao Shuo would have cut himself off a long time ago. If he didn't know what to do again, not only would he be finished, but Gongsun Xu would also be finished.

Gongsun Xu is only in his twenties, and it is a good time to make contributions, and he cannot delay his life because of his momentary confusion.

Cao Shuo said: "Father-in-law is so brave, you can't be a civil servant no matter what, what a waste of talent."

Gongsun Zan asked, "How many troops can you command?"

"It depends on the future performance of my father-in-law. If you want to use this to pull my soldiers and horses to rebel against me, the consequences will be very serious."

Cao Shuo narrowed his eyes and stared straight at Gongsun Zan. He really couldn't trust this guy.

"Ha ha!"

Gongsun Zan sneered, and put a cold ass on his warm face.

"Father, my son will never seek refuge!"

Gongsun Xu looked at Cao Shuo angrily, even if he was killed, he would not join Cao Shuo.

Gongsun Baoyue behind Cao Shuo said displeasedly, "Brother, why is my husband so out of your sight?"

Gongsun Xu said angrily: "Hmph, you used me back then, and I haven't settled with you yet."

Gongsun Baoyue replied: "If it wasn't for me, you, you would have died long ago!"

Gongsun Xu said disdainfully: "Who cares about your rescue?"

"Xu'er shut up!"

Gongsun Zan is far more than Gongsun Xu. At this time, he can no longer offend Cao Shuo, otherwise they will never recover.

Gongsun Xu glared at Cao Shuo and Gongsun Baoyue angrily, and stopped talking.

"If my father-in-law really wants to do things for me, I will not refuse, but my soldiers and horses are not so easy to command. If my father-in-law wants to be a general, the three of them must work by my side."

Cao Shuo paused and continued: "Of course, it's fine if you don't do anything, but you must live in Xindu, and you can't leave Xindu."

Gongsun Zan thought for a while and said, "If I don't want to do it from now on, will they be free?"

Cao Shuo replied: "If the world is peaceful, I will not stop my father-in-law from going anywhere!"

"Peace in the world?"

Gongsun Zan was speechless. When will he have to wait? Does he have the life to live until then?

Cao Shuo looked at Zhang Liao and asked, "Wen Yuan is willing to serve in our army?"

Zhang Liao asked back: "Wei Hou is not afraid that I will lead the army to join Wen Hou?"

Even his own father-in-law couldn't believe it, so how could he trust himself?The most frightening thing about being a general is not being trusted by the lord, and being unable to be reused even at the end of life.

Cao Shuo said meaningfully: "If Wen Yuan is willing, he can do it anytime, but if Wen Yuan is not willing to work for me, then Lu Bu will bleed."

Hao Meng looked at Lu Wen behind Cao Shuo, and asked, "Miss, don't you think about Marquis Wen?"

Lu Wen said, "What are you thinking about?"

"Marquis Wen has no generals available, so you are not worried that Marquis Wen will lose his foothold?"

Lu Wen said disdainfully: "When he defeats Bingzhou, I can beg my husband to leave him a position as a county guard, so that he can rest easy."

The entire Bingzhou is so big, it's only been a while, and it's about to be wiped out. What face is there to be a state shepherd, and he is not qualified to be a county guard.

Zhang Liao said: "Marquis Wen is kind to me..."

Before Zhang Liao finished speaking, Lu Wen interrupted him, "Uncle Zhang, although my father has the kindness to know you, but my husband has the kindness to you not to kill, don't you know which is more important? ?”

Zhang Liao said firmly: "I will never be such an unfaithful person."

"Uncle Zhang's abilities can only be brought into full play by my husband, so why bother me?"

The author says:

It's overtime, let's stop here today

Chapter 258

[It's another busy day, so much in the morning]

Cao Shuo said, "Wen Yuan, Lu Bu is at the end of his rope. Without the four of you, he can't keep Bingzhou."

What Cao Shuo said is not unreasonable. There are only a few of them left around Lu Bu who can fight well. If they really can't go back, Cao Shuo only needs to send two generals to lead an army of [-]. down.

As for Lu Bu, Cao Shuo had people who were not inferior to him in martial arts, not to mention Cao Shuo's martial arts were superior to Lu Bu's.

Zhang Liao said: "Marquis Wei, my family and I are all in Bingzhou. If they surrender, I'm afraid Lu Bu will not tolerate them."

Cao Shuo heard the worry in his heart, but Zhang Liao was willing to let go, which was a good thing for them.

Cao Shuo looked at Zhang Yang and smiled, and said, "Your family will fall to Uncle Zhi!"

Zhang Yang looked terrified, is he going to be exchanged for the children of Zhang Liao, Wei Yue and others?

Cao Shuo doesn't like his ability?

Zhang Liao was puzzled and said, "Please let Marquis of Wei express it!"

"If I remember correctly, Uncle Zhi still owes me 20 shi for grain and grass. Although I paid back part of it at the beginning, there are still at least [-] or [-] shi for grain and grass that have not been paid off."

"This……"

Zhang Yang was very depressed. He thought that if he took refuge in Lu Bu's account, he would not have to pay back these accounts, but who knew he would have to continue to pay them.

Cao Shuo asked, "Can Lu Bu get out so much food and grass?"

Zhang Liao, Zhang Yang, Hao Meng, and Wei Yue were extremely embarrassed. Of course Lu Bu had 20 shi for food and grass, but he would not be fooled so easily if he gave away 20 shi for nothing for the sake of a surrendered general.

Cao Shuo continued: "Your family members, I will help you get them. If Lu Bu doesn't compromise, I will have no choice but to suppress the border. Anyway, I have enough soldiers and horses. It's okay to go to Bingzhou along the way."

Everyone laughed wryly, only Cao Shuo could say such domineering words, and now he had to stop by to attack Lu Bu.

Cao Shuo looked at Pang De and asked, "May General Ming know Ma Teng's current situation?"

I'm afraid Pang De didn't even know about the split between Ma Teng and Han Sui. He was far away in Wuyuan County and had been fighting with Jia Kui all the time. Ma Teng's information could not be sent to him at all.

Pound shook his head, and then said: "My lord must have taken down all of Shangjun by now, and is now attacking Xihe County."

"Come here, bring Yang Fu in!"

Cao Shuo did not rush to explain to Pound, but decided to use a fact to let Pound know that Ma Teng had returned to the strength he had two days ago.

"Yang Fu?" Pound narrowed his eyes, why is he here?

Yang Fu was brought in after a while, and he was very surprised to see Pang De here.

"Your official Yang Fu, I have seen the lord!"

Pang De stared at Yang Fu in horror, and asked, "Yishan, you actually betrayed General Shoucheng!"

Yang Fu said: "I was already mortal, it was Marquis Wei who saved me."

Pang De hurriedly asked, "What do you mean?"

Yang Fu explained the incident to Pang De, and Pang De was in a cold sweat.

Unexpectedly, Ma Teng's plan failed and he broke up with Han Sui.

It was a bolt from the blue.

Pang De was stunned, and Ma Teng was now retreating to Wuwei, so how much strength did he have?

Isn't this back to the situation where he competed with Dong Zhuo for Xiliang two years ago?

Yang Fu persuaded: "Ling Ming, only by abandoning the darkness and turning to the light will there be a way out. Ma Teng's general situation is over. If Dong Zhuo sends troops to attack Xiliang, Ma Teng will definitely not be able to defend it."

Pound also faced this problem. His family was in Xiliang, and his cousin was also in Xiliang. If he took refuge with Cao Shuo, how would their safety be guaranteed?

Cao Shuo saw that Pang De's face was ugly, so he hurriedly asked, "Is Ling Ming worried about his family?"

Pang De nodded, it's not a bad idea to take refuge in Cao Shuo, not to mention Cao Shuo's strength is so strong, this big man will sooner or later become Cao Shuo's pocket.

"I can write a letter to Ma Teng to help him fight against Han Sui and Dong Zhuo, but on condition..."

Cao Shuo looked at Pound meaningfully. Ma Teng had no reason to refuse this condition. Pound was on his side, and he had to pay a price if he wanted to leave. Now he not only does not need to pay, but can also get some benefits. How can I refuse.

Pang De said respectfully: "If Marquis Wei can bring my family, I would like to surrender to Marquis Wei."

Yang Fu volunteered to stand up and said, "Your Majesty is willing to go to Liangzhou as an envoy!"

"This, I'm afraid it's not right!"

Cao Shuo looked at Yang Fu with a troubled look, he was Han Sui's man, if Ma Teng cut him off, he would lose a great sage.

Yang Fu said firmly: "The lower official has his own words, and he will definitely be able to complete this mission."

"Okay, since Yishan is so confident, I'll leave this matter to you."

"Thank you, my lord, for your trust."
