Cao Bao, with more than 10,000 soldiers on his side, had just arrived at the west city gate when he attracted the attention of Wei Xu on the tower.

He stretched his head out of the wall and looked at Cao Bao below the city, and he felt happy.

You must know that the current Wei Xu is not the Wei Xu who was abused and whipped by Lu Bu when Lu Bu was desperate, and finally betrayed Lu Bu because he could no longer bear it.

Now he is still Lu Bu's confidant and his brother-in-law.

Therefore, Wei Xu's loyalty to Lu Bu at this time was very high.

In addition, after Lu Bu had a good discussion with Chen Gong and others, he sent someone to notify Wei Xu, telling him what happened and what he should do.

Therefore, when Wei Xu saw Cao Bao, he was not panicked at all, and he was also happy.

A kind of joy that one has made great contributions. After all, no one wants to make more contributions.

Wei Xu, who was in a very good mood, even had the idea of ​​teasing Cao Bao.

"General Cao, what's the matter with you bringing so many people to my west gate?" Wei Xu pretended not to know anything and looked at Cao Bao.

"The rebels are attacking Nancheng now. You should take people to Nancheng."

Cao Bao didn't panic at all when he heard Wei Xu's words. After all, he had already thought of a countermeasure.

"General Wei, this is exactly what I am doing. The war with General Zhang Liao is tense, so I came to ask for help from the general."

"Help me? What are you asking for? I am also responsible for guarding the west city gate. How can I leave without permission?"

"On the contrary, it's General Cao. According to the plan, your troops belong to the rear camp and are responsible for supporting everywhere?" Wei Xu frowned when he heard Cao Bao's words and said with some confusion.

"General Wei, it's not like you don't know that the men and horses under my command are all local Xuzhou soldiers, and they are not as good as the Xiliang elite in General Wei's hands."

"The ones who are attacking Nancheng now are Liu Bei's elite troops. My people will go immediately and we won't be able to prevent them." Cao Bao said with a sad face.

"You can't stop this shit! Cao Bao, don't think I don't know your little thoughts."

"You just think that Liu Bei's men are strong in battle, and you are reluctant to take human lives to do so."

"Why, the lives of those under your command are important, but the lives of my brothers are nothing?"

"Cao, let me tell you, put away those little thoughts of yours. My lord has said that your people are backup. That means if you can't withstand anything, you just go for it!"

"Besides, weren't you Xuzhou people quite crazy before? Are you giving in now? Let me tell you, it's impossible!"

"Where should you go, where should you go! I have no enemy troops here, why should I change with you?" Wei Xu looked unhappy.

Cao Bao, who was under the city, was also unhappy. Facing Wei Xu's abuse, he had no way to refute.

Because he knew that as long as he fought back, Wei Xu's character really meant that he had no chance at all and could only choose to attack with force.

Although Wei Xu was scolding him now, Cao Bao knew that only by letting him scold him would he have a chance, and he could force Wei Xu to agree.

Although this is the truth, Cao Bao still felt aggrieved.

When did the Cao family in Xuzhou experience this?

But he couldn't help it. Now that Wei Xu was scolding him, he still had to keep smiling.

"What General Wei said is true. Cao knows he is wrong and will not dare to argue with General Wei in the future."

"But General Wei, you are my lord's brother-in-law, and Cao has also climbed up to my lord. It is a lucky thing that Cao's daughter can marry my lord."

"But no matter what, we can be considered a family. We have to work hard together."

"Right now, the rebels Yuan Shao and Liu Bei are besieging the city. The Lord needs me to wait. We must not fight among ourselves."

"Otherwise, if our lord is defeated due to our internal fighting, how can we have the face to see the lord again? How can we have the face to claim to be his relatives?"

"I hope the general will take the lord's sake into account and never ruin the lord's important affairs with personal grudges!"

"At this time, the enemy troops are coming fiercely. Our soldiers from Xuzhou cannot stop these people. I hope the general can abandon his prejudices and quickly help General Zhang defend Nancheng."

"The safety of the West City must be guarded by me, Xuzhou Erlang!" Cao Bao said with sincerity on his face.

If Wei Xu hadn't already known about Cao Bao's sinister intentions, he might have actually believed it.

However, Wei Xu also knew that it was enough for him to satisfy his taste. According to the plan, the west city gate had to be given to Cao Bao. Otherwise, the rest of the drama would really not be able to continue.

So, Wei Xu rolled his eyes, pointed at Cao Bao at the bottom of the city, and said, "Bah! What you say is better than what you sing!"

"Even if you tell the truth today, it won't change your nature of being greedy for life and afraid of death."

"However, you little bastard, you are right about one thing. No matter how we fight, we cannot affect the master's grand plan."

"I have promised you today, so just open your eyes wide and take a good look at how I, Xiliang Erlang, go into battle to kill the enemy."

After Wei Xu said this, he put his head back inside the wall, not caring about the reaction of Cao Bao below the city.

How could Cao Bao react? Of course he was ecstatic.

He originally thought that if he wanted to persuade Wei Xu, he would have to say more nice things, but unexpectedly, he just said some words casually, and Wei Xu, a fool, believed him.

So, Cao Bao immediately greeted his captains and asked them to get ready.

As for Wei Xu, he retracted his head and asked a captain next to him: "How did the thing I asked you to do go?"

"Don't worry, general, everything will be done properly. As long as Cao Bao, the old dog, opens the city gate, he won't be able to close it again!" The captain heard Wei Xu's words and quickly replied.

When he answered, there was a sneer on his face.

"Okay, okay, you're laughing your ass off! If you laugh again, Cao Bao's grandson will see the flaw in a moment!" Wei Xu looked at the captain who had been sneering and scolded him with a smile.

Hearing Wei Xu's scolding, the captain immediately put away his smile, and then nodded heavily to Wei Xu: "General, don't worry, I know it."

"Go! Tell the brothers to go down in a while and act more like me! If you dare to ruin the master's plan, I will hang him on the flagpole!"

"Yes, General." Seeing that Wei Xu was speaking so seriously, the captain also replied seriously.

With both sides having their own agenda, Wei Xu and Cao Bao could be considered to have completed the defense change.

At this time, Cao Bao led more than 10,000 troops of his own and stood on the wall of the Western City, while Wei Xu led more than 10,000 elite soldiers of Xiliang to the city walls.

"My surname is Cao, I am going to rescue Zhang Wenyuan. You will keep an eye on the West City Gate for me! If the West City Gate is lost, I will tear you apart with my own hands!" Wei Xu said while standing at the foot of the city and looking at Cao Bao on top of the city.

"Don't worry, General Wei, Cao understands!" Cao Bao said to Wei Xu with a smile, but there was a bit of a sneer on his face at this time.
