Cao Cao's army surrounded Xuzhou from all directions, killing civilians and digging up graves wherever they went. Their behavior was no different from that of Dong Zhuo and later Li Jue!

When the army arrived, Cao Cao ordered the entire army to wear sackcloth and wear mourning. Suddenly, the entire army turned white, which made people feel even more horrified!

Tao Qian was in Xuzhou. When he heard about the atrocities committed by Cao Jun, he looked up to the sky and cried!

The subordinates hurriedly asked: "Master Governor! This fault is not yours! It was Cao Cao's anger that caused the people of Xuzhou to suffer this disaster! Furthermore, we in Xuzhou also have strong soldiers and horses. If we really fight, we will not necessarily lose to Cao Cao."

thief!"

Tao Qian's eyes were swollen from tears and he replied: "You know nothing! If Cao Cao comes here, it's enough for us to drink a pot, and Liu Bei is watching behind him! It's like attacking from both sides..."

After hearing this, all the officials had a headache. After all, they often discussed military affairs with Tao Qian. They had made at least five or six plans on how to eradicate Liu Bei. However, none of them have been implemented yet, but they were disrupted by Cao Cao's army.

plan!

The more Tao Qian thought about it, the angrier he got, and he punched the table hard. However, due to the excessive force, the pain was so severe that he jumped up. This made him even more angry, and he shouted loudly: "What a Zhang."

Kai! I thought I trusted you so much, but I didn’t expect that you would kill people and plunder goods for such a small amount of treasure, and harm the people of Xuzhou!”

Mi Zhu took a step forward: "My lord, this is wrong! Although Zhang Kai is a Yellow Turban general, he has always been grateful to you! Moreover, General Zhang Kai handles things very appropriately. I believe he will not do such a thing.

!There must be something fishy in it!”

When Tao Qian heard this, he felt that there was some truth in it: "Although Zhang Kai's historical status is impure, his behavior and behavior are not problematic. After working together for so many years, I feel that he is very reliable! What does Mr. Mi mean?"

Mi Zhu was silent. It was not that he had no ideas, but that he felt that speaking out at this moment might worsen the situation! After all, there was a part of his plan that Tao Qian could not bear! But this plan was extremely beneficial to Mi Zhu himself.

Got it!

A general named Cao Bao saw that Mi Zhu was unwilling to speak, so he stepped forward without waiting and shouted: "Now that Cao's soldiers have arrived, how can we just sit back and wait to die! I am willing to help you break it."

Tao Qian looked directly at Mi Zhu and saw that he was still unwilling to speak, so he had to lead his troops out of the city!

Tao Qian reined up his horse and looked at Cao Cao's army from a distance, like frost and snow. The central army raised two white flags with the four words "revenge" written in big words. The army and horses were lined up in formation. Cao Cao rode out of the battle, dressed in plain clothes, raising his whip and yelling.

: "Tao Qian from Nimei! As the governor of Xuzhou, he is engaged in road robbery! Are you so short of money? Do your family members know that you are so short of money? You let your wife and all the concubines go to perform as entertainers! It's not enough.

If you can make money, sell your body again! If you still don’t make enough, sell your kidneys again! Damn you! How dare you kill my whole family? Then I will destroy your Xuzhou today!"

Tao Qian's veins were exposed when he heard that, but after all, the opponent was powerful, so he could only tolerate it! He stepped out under the banner of the door, bowed and bowed and patiently replied: "Qian wanted to make a good friend with Ming Gong, so he asked Zhang Kai to escort him. I don't want to change my thief's heart.

There is such a thing! But now that I think about it, Zhang Kai is not the person who behaves like this, and there must be a misunderstanding in the whole thing! Furthermore, even if Zhang Kai is really motivated by interests, he really has nothing to do with Tao Qian. I hope the public will investigate."

After hearing this, Cao Cao cursed angrily: "Old man! Kill my father, how dare you talk nonsense! How about I kill your whole family, and then arrange for a sharp brother to take the blame? I'm such a coward, I don't bother to tell you more.

!" Then Cao Cao turned around and looked at the generals: "Who can capture the old thief alive?"

Xiahou Dun responded and charged straight at Tao Qian with a spear!

Seeing this, Tao Qian hurriedly walked into the formation. After all, a man with 995 force came towards him, but his own force only had 330, which was completely useless! Naturally, Xiahou Dun was chasing after him. Anyone who dared to block Tao Qian's soldiers around them would be killed.

Xiahou Dun’s serial assassinations!

Cao Bao drew his spear and leaped on his horse, came to meet the enemy, and shouted: "Stop looking down on others! What do you want!"

Xiahou Dun stopped and laughed and replied: "I didn't expect Xuzhou to have a Taiwanese accent? What do I want? What can you do even if I want to?"

Cao Bao: "I will make you look good!"

Xiahou Dun: "Then it depends on whether you have this book [Four]..."

After the two exchanged Taiwanese accents, the two horses crossed each other and started fighting! Cao Bao, holding a long-handled sword, sprinted over and raised it over his head, then struck Xiahou Dun on the head! Xiahou Dun was naturally prepared, holding the spear in his hand with both hands horizontally, stiffly

Block this powerful blow! Then Xiahou Dun used both hands to push Cao Bao away, and then stabbed him with a spear! When Cao Bao was pushed away, he was shocked: I didn't expect this guy to be so powerful?

But at this time, the cold light had arrived, and Cao Bao had no choice but to lean back, just in time for Xiahou Dun to stab him in the air! Cao Bao saw that he had already dodged, so he took advantage of his body to lean up and slashed Xiahou Dun horizontally along the half-moon trajectory with his sword.

Go! But I didn’t expect that Xiahou Dun moved his hand very quickly, and he actually raised his spear and blocked it again!

The two men were fighting fiercely, when they heard a sound from the sky - timesup! Then a strong wind blew up, flying sand and rocks, the horses of the two armies were frightened, their formations were in chaos for a while, and they had no choice but to withdraw their troops!

Cao Bao returned to the city and took off his sword. When he looked at his palm, he saw that his skin had been scratched. He was secretly shocked by Xiahou Dun's martial arts. If he fought for dozens more rounds, he might not be able to save his life!

Tao Qian and others returned to the city to discuss with everyone: "Cao's army is extremely powerful, and Xiahou Dun in front of the formation is extremely powerful! Hey, let's do it this way! Tonight I will tie myself up and go to Cao's camp alone, no matter what

He exploded the chrysanthemum to save the lives of the people in a county in Xuzhou!"

When Tao Qian said this, he was very worried! Because he was very worried that his opinion would be adopted by everyone! Would you be willing to sacrifice yourself if it were you? Come on, be realistic, Sao Nian,

People are selfish! Tao Qian was just putting on a show to be admired by future generations.

After everyone listened, everyone shed tears, but there was no answer! Tao Qian was shocked: What the hell! Are you crying? Does this mean you are really willing to let me die? Let me see who is crying.

!If you can survive this disaster, don’t hang out with me!

At this time, Mi Zhu finally couldn't wait any longer, and stepped forward and said slowly: "The Lord has been in Xuzhou for a long time, and the people are grateful. Now that the victory is not decided in front of the battle, how can you let the master get out! I see that although Cao's soldiers are numerous,

We must not attack Xuzhou right away. I ask you and the people to stay tight and don't leave. Although I am not talented, I am willing to bring all the princes to come to my rescue! There will be no place for Cao Cao to die!"

Tao Qian's little heart was racing, but now someone finally came out to help him find a step. Of course he was overjoyed. It was night, so he arranged for Mi Zhu to sneak out of the city to call for reinforcements!

...

Mi Zhu quickly went to Beihai first and invited Kong Rong to bring in 30,000 reinforcements!

Then he went to Qingzhou and invited Tian Kai to bring in 10,000 reinforcements!

When returning to Xuzhou, Mi Zhu thought again and again and went to Xiapi to invite Liu Bei!

In fact, how could Mi Zhu not know Tao Qian's concerns? Since Liu Bei went south to help Xuzhou defeat the Yellow Turbans, he has been occupying Xiapi and refused to leave. Only a fool would believe that he was to continue to protect Xuzhou! Of course, Liu Bei had only one purpose,

It was just to take Xuzhou as his own, but he had always suffered from no chance! Now Zhang Kai was inexplicably accused of killing Cao Cao's family, which was extremely strange. In fact, Mi Zhu had already linked this matter to Liu Bei.

!

Just imagine, if the assassins were sent by Liu Bei to kill all Cao Cao's family members and Zhang Kai's troops, then Liu Bei would have definitely killed two birds with one stone! First, Zhang Kai's body was not found, and there was no evidence. Second, Cao Cao was so grief-stricken that he would kill two birds with one stone.

Attack Xuzhou! Even if Tao Qian is lucky enough to win and escape this disaster, his military strength will definitely be damaged! So if Liu Bei enters Xuzhou at this time, wouldn't it be like turning his back on him?

Since Mi Zhu had made this judgment, why didn't he go to Xiapi to ask Liu Bei to send troops to rescue him? Isn't this inviting a wolf into the house?

Because Mi Zhu is a businessman.

Mi Zhu, the number one person on the Forbes rich list in the Xuzhou area, has all his property in Xuzhou. As long as Xuzhou’s wealth is not lost, isn’t it the same who is the master of Xuzhou? Do you think everyone can fight against landlords and divide their fields? Of course not.

Yes! The truly smart princes naturally sided with the landlords and gentry. After all, rich people can help you buy planes and cannons! And Mi Zhu felt that Liu Bei was a smart man.

So Mi Zhu decided to ask Liu Bei to help him in the battle. If Liu Bei really took the opportunity to seize Xuzhou in the future, he would be the tour guide. How could Liu Bei remember his contribution? In short, as long as Xuzhou was not damaged, everything would be fine!

At this moment, Mi Zhu had arrived at Xiapi, but when he entered the city, he saw that Liu Bei's army was already ready to attack!

Naturally, Mi Zhu couldn't waste the opportunity, otherwise wouldn't all his little plans be wasted? He quickly found Liu Bei and explained his purpose of coming!

Liu Bei looked sideways at Mi Zhu, which had a profound meaning that no one else could figure out. Then he looked up to the sky and laughed and said to Mi Zhu: "Xuzhou is in trouble, how can I, Liu Xuande, not go to the rescue? Everything is Zhang Kai's fault, how can I let Tao Governor do it?"

Taking the blame? Sir Mi, don’t worry, when the situation calms down, you will still be the richest man in Xuzhou!"

These words were definitely well spoken and watertight, but they clearly gave Mi Zhu a reassurance!

When Mi Zhu heard "When the storm calms down, you will still be the richest man in Xuzhou", he admired Liu Bei very much. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: If this kind of dragon really only guards the small area of ​​​​Xiapi, he is really talented.

It’s of little use!

Mi Zhu quickly reported back to Tao Qian, saying that the three-pronged army and horses had arrived. Tao Qian appeared to feel at ease, but in fact he was quite dissatisfied with Mi Zhu! Since he was asking for reinforcements, wasn't it enough to invite two more troops? He knew that Liu Bei was like a wolf and a tiger.

You are back home, have you given away Mi Zhu's chrysanthemums? Tao Qian finally understood the reason why Mi Zhu didn't want to say it directly before, because he was afraid that he wouldn't agree! And later he even said that he wanted to tie himself out of the city.

, just gave Mi Zhu a chance to execute the plan... I can only use four words to describe it - [Mother is so sexy]

If Liu Bei's arrival makes Tao Qian depressed, then Kong Rong and Tian Kai will directly make Tao Qian scold him!

It turned out that these two groups of troops were afraid of the fierce force of Cao's army, and did not want to form too deep a relationship with Cao Cao. They all stayed far away from the mountain and retreated to the stronghold, and did not dare to advance lightly. When Cao Cao saw the arrival of the two groups of armies, he also divided his forces.

Dare to move forward and attack Xuzhou City directly.

Therefore, military and political affairs are always connected together. Of course Kong Rong and Tian Kai did not want to antagonize Cao Cao, but due to their close relationship with Tao Qian, they had to come! So how can they get the best of both worlds?

? Of course, you can avoid it if you can. As long as the fight can't start, no one can afford it for a long time. Of course, Cao Cao has to retreat! In this way, Tao Qian's favor is repaid without a head-on confrontation with Cao Cao. It is absolutely perfect.

!

Zhang Han was already standing on a high hill, overlooking the army camps, and sighed: "If we don't fight or talk, do we really want to waste our time?"

Liu Bei took a step forward: "Humph, no fight? Then aren't we here in vain? I can't make the situation peaceful..."

Zhang Han saw Liu Bei standing beside him, so he asked softly: "Brother, there are actually many ways to achieve the goal, why did you choose the one that is angry and resentful? The people of Xuzhou..."
