Qing Song Xun Ling [Three Kingdoms]

Leaving aside bullying and not bullying, it is true that the Xuzhou Chen family made a bad move.

"Tao Gongzu knew the intentions of Chen Yuanlong and the others, and I'm afraid he was persuaded a little bit at the beginning." Shen Sheng added, and Cao Cao walked back to his seat and continued, "Compared to Tao Gongzu, Liu Xuande is more difficult to get along with."

"If that's the case, we'll have to think it over again." Cheng Yu tapped the table with his fingers, and Cheng Yu took a look at Xi Zhicai, both of them looked cautious.

Naturally, there must be a reason for inviting people. If Tao Qian also knew, Liu Bei would definitely not come here alone.

Calling people here in the name of asking for help, they naturally came with soldiers and horses. I don't know how they arranged in front of Liu Xuande, but it doesn't matter. Confused by one-sided words?

Liu Xuande originally had nearly a thousand troops around him, so they would expand their troops if they encountered hungry people along the road to Xuzhou. Since they came, they had to be on guard against this man causing any trouble behind.

Thinking in this way, Cheng Yu looked up at Cao Cao, with a slightly mocking tone, "Tao Gongzu is in crisis, Liu Xuande is indeed benevolent, even if only those soldiers and horses are in his hands, he will come to help."

"Who said it wasn't?" Xi Zhicai continued with his expression unchanged, and then asked, "Does my lord know what's going on in Yanzhou now? Can Wen Ruo know about this?"

"The news was only sent out today, and it is estimated that we will arrive in Changyi tomorrow." Touching his chin, he replied, obviously, Cao Cao was more interested in Liu Xuande who suddenly got involved in the battle than Tao Gongzu, who had done his best.

However, today's rush to call Xi Zhicai Cheng Yu over is not only because of Liu Xuande, he also has more important things to say.

"Early this morning, Chen Yuanlong sent people to try to negotiate a peace. What did Zhicai Zhongde think he was doing this way?"

"Negotiate peace?" Eyes widened in surprise, Cheng Yu subconsciously wanted to say that this was most likely to confuse them. They fought all the way, and half of Xuzhou had already fallen into their hands. If you want to negotiate peace, you can say it before , why at this juncture?

Cheng Yu just wanted to say something, but when he saw Xi Zhicai's expression in a blink of an eye, he stopped. He suddenly remembered that this person had a friendship with Chen Yuanlong before, and he naturally knew more about Chen Deng than himself.

"What do Zhicai think?" Cheng Yu relaxed and looked at Xi Zhicai, coughing lightly, the meaning in his eyes was very straightforward, "Is Chen Yuanlong going to surrender or cheating?"

Raising his eyebrows, Xi Zhicai glanced at the person standing next to him, shook his sleeves, stood up and cupped his hands at Cao Cao, "My lord, do you know that likes flock together and things divide like groups?"

Cao Cao was stunned for a while, but he didn't realize what Xi Zhicai meant by this, "Zhicai said..."

"Chen Yuanlong's aspirations are not far away, but not everyone can see them. He has been loyal to him for three years, and his aspirations are very compatible."

Without concealing that he and Chen Deng were old acquaintances, Xi Zhi explained a little, and woke up the people next to him with one sentence.

What he meant was very clear. Chen Yuanlong and his son didn't like Tao Qian, nor did they like Liu Bei. Now it seems that they hope to serve Cao Mengde who has the power to swallow mountains and rivers.

Xi Zhicai himself worked under Cao Cao's account not only because he was the lord chosen by Xun Yu, but also because his words and deeds met his expectations for the lord.

It is not a child's play for a counselor to choose a master. At the beginning, he joked that no matter who Xun Yu chose, he would go, but that was also because he had confidence in Xun Yu's vision. He was extremely thorough, and he was not at all worried that the lord would be an illiterate and visionless person.

But even so, Chen Yuanlong's thinking is definitely not as simple as it appears on the surface.

Knowing that he was here, Cao Cao was more likely to believe in his overtures, so he took the trouble to send someone to them, so bold that he had to give in.

After all, he is the one who puts the family first. Chen Deng is very eloquent at this time. Even if he knows that they will support Cao Cao after he takes down Xuzhou, Xi Zhicai dare not take it lightly.

He is very clear about that man's resourcefulness, even if he chooses the lord and is loyal to him, if there is any conflict with the family, he will definitely choose the Chen family.

The layout of the Xuzhou aristocratic family was probably already unfolded when Tao Qian went to the capital. If he dared to move the idea of ​​assassinating in the capital, if no one whispered in his ear, Tao Gongzu would not dare to put his idea into practice.

"If Zhong guessed right, what Chen Yuanlong meant was Chen's attitude, but not what Tao Gongzu meant!"

"That's right." Cao Cao nodded, and after a little thought, he realized what Xi Zhicai said.

It is probably true that Chen Deng wants to vote, but this is not the meaning of everyone in Xuzhou. After all, Xuzhou is not just the Chen family, and Chen Deng cannot represent the meaning of other people.

"Mi Zhu, Mi Fang and the others are loyal to Tao Qian. Even if Chen Yuanlong wants to do something, he has to guard against other people. To be loyal to their understanding, they just want the lord to take Xuzhou, and then rely on the lord to keep their status in Xuzhou. .”

Even if the relationship with Chen Deng is relatively good, Xi Zhicai didn't want to hide it now that each is in charge of each other. If these things are not explained clearly, it will be a disaster in the future.

Besides, I want to use their hands to weaken the power of several other families in Xuzhou, and then one family will dominate Xuzhou. How can I do it without paying some price?

They came all the way with their troops, not just to be used by others, and in the end, they can solve it with just a word of refuge.

Startled by Xi Zhicai's words, Cheng Yu hurriedly raised his head and glanced at Cao Cao, seeing that his expression didn't change and he still didn't relax. Is this man crazy?

Even if they don't want to say it, they have to admit that their lord's progress was made thanks to the help of the family at first, and even now, the power of the family still plays a big role.

Everyone who is close to the protagonist knows that he does not want the family to be in power, but now is not the time to discuss these matters, so everyone ignores this issue in unison.

But as soon as Xi Zhicai said this, he put the problem directly on the bright side. What kind of situation will the local aristocratic family be in after Xuzhou is conquered? Where to go.

The family's problems must always be resolved, but it should never be now. If they leave their hearts at this time, what will they do in the future?

If the lord really wants to promote talents from poor families, it won't have much impact on Zhicai, so why...

Wen Ruo!

Suddenly thought of something, Cheng Yu looked at Xi Zhicai with an indescribable meaning in his eyes, did this person think too much?

Among the counselors under the lord's command, the Xun family in Yingchuan is indeed quite conspicuous. Xun Wenruo and Xun Gongda are both highly valued. If the lord wants to attack the family in the future, the Xun family is undoubtedly the best target.

But with Wen Ruo Gongda's status in the Lord's mind, even if he wants to do something, he will only do it slowly, let alone do any harm to the Xun family. Is this person worried a little too early?

Or is it that I have already regarded myself as the son-in-law of the Xun family...the daughter-in-law of the Xun family...

There was something wrong no matter how I thought about it, Cheng Yu's eyes became even more strange, and the worries just now disappeared without a trace.

I don't know why Cheng Yu looked at Xi Zhicai with that kind of eyes, and Cao Cao didn't think about covering up this matter. These are his most important advisers. If he can't even tell them, then he is really Enough to fail.

"Since this is the case, then the envoy will be troubled by Lao Zhicai. Whether we will fight Xuzhou or not is not up to Mr. Chen to interfere."

Looking at each other, Xi Zhicai and Cao Cao both knew what the other meant, so they didn't struggle with it. On the contrary, Cheng Yu who was next to him really didn't know what to say.

He originally thought that these two people would argue about this matter, and finally asked him to intervene, but he didn't expect that the matter would pass without even a chance to speak, which was simply not in line with the lord's previous style.

Before he realized why these two people just mentioned one sentence and then left the point behind, Cheng Yu was dragged to continue discussing how to adjust the offensive line.

They walked along the way, although Tao Qian's soldiers and horses had a lot of food and grass, but their morale was much worse than theirs. In this way, there were still fewer victories and more defeats. In just two months, half of Xuzhou was already under their control. under control.

No matter what the next situation will be, in short, Tao Qian will definitely not be able to be Xuzhou Mu.

From the Huainan area all the way to Xuzhou, Sun Wentai's journey was smoother than Cao Cao's. Yuan Shu didn't care, and there were not many other people who were his opponents.

Stationed in the Guangling area, Sun Jian did not continue to attack, but cooperated with Cao Cao, who was a county away, to put pressure on Tao Qian.

Xuzhou's land area is not considered large among the thirteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty. It is only because it is close to the sea that it has abundant supplies and its geographical location is extremely important, so it has been guarded by heavy troops throughout the past dynasties.

Now only half of Xuzhou is under Tao Qian's control, as long as he cooperates well with Cao Mengde, the old boy will surely offer the seal within a month.

Sun Jian could see that he always had various problems in his own fights. Although he won a lot, it was of no use. But following Cao Mengde was different. Wherever he pointed, the effect was better than before. It's not just 01:30 when I think about where to hit.

After training, the soldiers were sweating profusely and went back to the tent to pack themselves. Sun Wentai looked at the news sent from Cao Cao, and then waved someone to find all the generals under his command.

After a few days of leisure, it's time for them to exercise their muscles and bones. I believe Tao Gongzu will be very excited to see them this time. They were all acquaintances at the Suanzao Alliance. How can they not be excited when they meet acquaintances?

Grinning, thinking about Tao Qian's expression when he saw them, Sun Jian vigorously wiped his face, then looked left and right, "Where did that brat go?"

The guard next to him was stunned for a moment, "Young Master led people out of the tent early in the morning, the general didn't know?"

His face darkened in an instant, and Sun Jian slapped the table and stood up, cursing and roaring, "Stinky boy, you will cause trouble for me all day long!"

The author has something to say: Xiaobawang (serious): I just want to see who can surrender to my father, I really have no other ideas.
