Chapter 172: Taking Advantage of the Void
Cao Cao heard that LΓΌ Bu led his troops to attack Yanzhou, but Liu Yi seemed to be an unpredictable prophet, and his doubts were greater than his worries, so he ordered Xun Yu and Xiahou brothers to lead 30,000 horses to return to help first, and he led the army to arrive later. Early the next morning, Cao Cao got up and ordered his attendants to invite Guo Jia to come to the camp to speak, Feng Xiao came happily, and saw that there was only Cheng Yu in the big tent, but Xun Wenruo was nowhere to be found, thinking about the situation last night, he knew the reason in his heart, but he was quiet, and he saw Cao Cao with courtesy.
"Last night, I watched the book of Lang Sheng passed on by Feng Xiao, I thought about it in the middle of the night, thinking that I and Lang Sheng were favored by the Son of Heaven back then, and swept the world side by side, and then made a book of rebellion, Lang Sheng immediately came to help, for the righteousness of the minister, so the friendship, Lang Sheng is indeed Cao's confidant; This letter, the semantics are sincere, I don't want to confront it, bad old friendship, today according to the words in Lang Sheng's letter, please Feng Xiao to convey Cao's intentions, he will have something to report in the future. Cao Cao got straight to the point and was extremely refreshing.
"Lord Cao judges the situation, has a far-sighted vision, and admires filial piety, and now he can be like this, thinking that General Liu will be happy, not only for righteousness, but also for the love of old friends, and the words of the adults are good!" Guo Jia said with a smile.
"As a son of man, my father's revenge must be avenged, and I am also bothered to repay filial piety to Tao Gong, and send the first-class Xiaoxiao disciples within three months, otherwise I will not give up!" Cao Cao's voice turned sharp.
"My lord's words, Jia must report to Tao Gong, respect for his father, Tao Daren also regrets it, this time there are a lot of adults, I want to come to Tao Gong will not be lost." Guo Jia said with a straight face, although he was a retreat, Cao Cao naturally had to say two more words.
"It's so good, then it's annoying Mr., Lang Sheng's matter is over, he will definitely return to Youzhou, Cao Mou is here to send all the way away, and I will pass on my filial piety." Cao Cao said no more.
"Don't worry, Jia will not miss a word, so Jia will not bother the adult, goodbye!" Guo Jia knew that Cao Cao had the intention of sending off guests, so he did not hesitate and left with another salute.
"Guo Fengxiao's discussion and legislative discussion have the style of a national scholar, Wen Ruozhongde's words are true, but a resourceful person belongs to others, Liu Langsheng, this time you will win. Zhongde, call all the generals! Cao Cao watched Guo Jia's back disappear, and there was a lot of regret in his tone.
Guo Jia got out of Caoying, did not make any stops, and immediately returned to Xiapi on horseback.
"Lord, everything is going well, then Lu Feng made the first move in time, thinking that Cao Mengde should be on the way back to Yanzhou at this moment." In the study, Guo Jia was also talking to Liu Yi.
"Hehe, I didn't expect to have a fierce battle with Na Lu Fengxian that day, but today I owe him a personal favor! Feng Xiao went to see old friends, and wanted to talk about it! Liu Yi said with a smile.
"I wanted to talk to my old friend for many years when I didn't see him at night, but Lu Bu was like thunder, and he couldn't do it, but the lord often said that Cao Mengde was able, and I went to see him today, this person was not surprised by the great changes, and he made a decision immediately, calm as a mountain, and the people he saw were only comparable to the lord!" Guo Jiayan said.
"Feng Xiao is polite, but Brother Meng De should have a headache here, although Lu Fengxian is scheming, he is not incompetent, he is quite talented in commanding troops, Chen Gong is wise, and the wolf riding elite in Bingzhou, even with Brother Meng De's ability, it will take a lot of effort!" Liu Yi's tone was very relaxed.
"Cao Jun has retreated, there is no major event here, if you want to come to Tao Gong Kuanren, this time you will definitely not treat the lord lightly, Xuzhou is rich but far above the North Sea!" Guo Jia pretended to be a positive color.
"Everything is in Fengxiao's calculations, you and I are tacit!" The two of them smiled.
"When it's here, I'll turn around immediately, that Gongsun Du really deceived me, the troops are sent to Youzhou, the enemy army is strong, Xingba is not good to send troops, and he has been defeated and retreated!" Liu Yi replied again, but he didn't show any nervousness when he talked about the defeat in Youzhou.
"Hahaha, Zicai is so calculating, Gongsun Du is extraordinary, the lord is not empty in Youzhou, and it is common sense that the two generals are difficult to fight each other." Guo Jia made it clear when he heard what he said, although he and Liu Yi came out, but more than 10,000 elite soldiers, how could they be defeated with Zhang Hu's strategy and Gan Ning's bravery, I think it must be Zhang Xi's plan to lure the enemy, and they want to wipe out the soldiers of Liaodong, as long as Liaodong is safe, Liu Yi will no longer have to worry about his back, and he can take advantage of the situation to watch the world.
"There are sons and talents, and there is no need to worry about it, but General Gongsun has worked hard from afar, and I, Liu Langsheng, am not personally greeting him, is it a way of hospitality?" Now Liu Yi is not only not angry with Gongsun Du's Chen Xulai, but is overjoyed, fighting at home, as long as he destroys his elite, it is not easy to be in the back?
"The lord is high, I think that at this time, Tao Gong should also know about Cao Cao's retreat."
"My lord, according to the Malay report, Cao Jun has already pulled up the camp and left this morning, which should be caused by Mr. Guo going to Cao Ying to spread General Liu's letter!" The waiter's tone was excited.
"What, say it again!" Tao Qian couldn't believe it, Liu Yi's words really came true, and the three-day period had not yet arrived, and Xiapi was saved!
"My lord, Cao Jun has retreated, it's true." The attendant raised his voice, and everyone present was overjoyed when he heard the words, Cao Cao's army has been pressing on their hearts like a mountain these days.
"Lang Sheng's divine calculation, Lang Sheng's divine calculation! Now that my Xuzhou has been preserved, it is all the work of Langsheng, and I immediately sent someone to invite General Liu and Master Kong to come here! Zizhong, you go to the treasury immediately, and that's it! Tao Qian's face was happy, and he didn't whisper about Mi Zhu's matter, and everyone couldn't help but be surprised, this number is also a little huge, but now they don't care; If it had been placed in the past, General Cao Bao should have had an opinion, but now he has been praised by Liu Langsheng and is a famous general in Xuzhou.
After a while, Liu Yi and Kong Rong had already come together, Tao Qian gave a slight signal, and Mi Zhu and Sun Qian led Guo Jia and Kong Rong's subordinates to discuss respectively.
"This time, Cao's army retreated, and Xuzhou was protected, all of them relied on the two righteous people to help, and the people of Xuzhou thanked the two of them." Tao Qian hurried to meet him, and gave a deep salute while speaking.
"Master Tao can't be like this, how can we stand it!" Seeing this, Kong Rong and Liu Yi hurriedly stepped forward to help each other, Tao Qian's move was definitely not a show, it was indeed from the heart.
"The great grace is not grateful, Xuzhou is guaranteed, it is really a blessing for the people, today the old decay will set up a banquet, and make the whole city celebrate." Tao Qian held Liu Yi's hand tightly when he spoke, and Liu Yi could sense the excitement of the old man in front of him with the strength coming from his hand! In fact, Tao Qian also has a plan in his heart, Kong Rong and Liu Yi came to help, and now that he has succeeded, Xuzhou can't treat people badly, but he really values Liu Yi in his heart, so he also let Mi Zhu and Sun Qian talk to each other.
"Lord Tao is serious, this time Cao Jun is willing to retreat is to see the unity of Xuzhou, the prestige of the world, even if I can't wait, there will be people who will be volunteers, and they dare not take credit, but this celebration banquet is afraid that they will not be able to participate, and they will come today and resign to Tao Gong!"
"Why is Langsheng like this? Is it still the rumor? The old man and the whole of Xuzhou have a lot of trust in Langsheng, and Langsheng is at ease! Seeing that Liu Yi was leaving, Tao Qian was reluctant, but this person was righteous and dedicated to Xuzhou, Tao Qian thought that Liu Yi was afraid of attracting jealousy, and he appreciated him even more.
"Although Cao Jun goes, Lang Sheng needs to sit here for a few days, why should he leave?" Kong Rong also echoed on the side, and he was also afraid that as soon as Liu Yi left, Cao Cao would kill him.
"Lord Tao Gongkong rest assured, Brother Meng De is by no means a repeated villain, Yi has made everything clear in the letter, it's not that Yi doesn't want to stay longer, it's actually that Liaodong Gongsun Du took advantage of Yi's leadership to lead the army to attack, and he got the news the day before yesterday, but Lord Tao is not here, don't lose his trust, now he has succeeded, and he should return to help quickly; What Master Kong said just now was also reasonable, so I asked Master Kong to stay for a few days. Liu Yi whispered the truth to the two, and looking at Tao Qian's arrangement, he would not treat himself badly, and he didn't have to stay longer.
"The military situation is like fire, and the old man doesn't dare to stay longer, this Youzhou thing is also because of me, if not. . . Hey, it's just that Langsheng will wait a while, and you will set off immediately after arranging for the old man. β
"How can this matter have anything to do with Tao Gong, measure how much the grandson of the first prince is enough, when Yi returns to the army, it will be peaceful, Tao Gong doesn't need to worry, Yi will arrange it." At this point, it is about Youzhou again, Tao Qian Kong Rong is naturally not good to stay, after Liu Yi left, Tao Qian seemed to think of something again, and went to the place where Mi Zhu and Guo Jia talked!
