Chapter 111 Letters
"My lord, General Yan Liang of Jizhou led [-] troops and stationed in the north of Dongwuyang."
"what?"
Hearing this news, everyone was shocked.
Cao Hong grabbed the spy's shoulders and shouted loudly, "What did you say, Jizhou sent troops?"
"The subordinates can't guarantee it, but the soldiers and horses of Jizhou have indeed arrived at the border of Yanzhou."
Cao Hong turned his head to look at Cao Cao, his eyes flashed with joy, "My lord, that's great, Ben Chugong sent troops to Yanzhou."
Hearing the news, Cao Cao didn't show much joy, but frowned slightly and nodded.
"Hurry up and go back and continue to investigate. If there is any movement over there, come back and report immediately."
The spy cupped his hands, turned and left in a hurry.
Cao Hong rubbed his hands excitedly, "My lord, why don't we send someone to contact General Yan Liang to deal with Lu Bu?"
Cao Cao didn't speak, but turned to look at Cheng Yu, "Zhongde, what do you think?"
Cheng Yu smiled wryly and shook his head, "This is not good."
Cao Hong was taken aback, "Ben Chugong sent troops, we can deal with Lu Bu's son together, what's wrong?"
Cheng Yu sighed, "Even if we wipe out Lu Bu'er together, what if Yan Liang's troops don't leave?"
"This?"
Cao Hong was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, his face suddenly turned ugly, "So, even if you drive away Lu Bu'er, you still have to face Yan Liang?"
Cheng Yu shook his head, and said with a wry smile, "What we are going to face is not Yan Liang, but Lord Ben Chu, who owns the land of the Three States."
Cao Hong also knew the seriousness of the matter, frowned, and punched a nearby tree, "What should I do?"
Cao Cao turned his head to look at Cheng Yu, and asked with a wry smile, "Zhongde, how should we deal with this matter?"
Cheng Yu smiled slightly, "My lord, whether the Chugong sent troops to guard the border, or to plot against the eyes, this matter has not yet been settled, so it's not too late to make a decision after the dust settles."
Cao Cao nodded, "Alright, let's rest for a while, and then go to collect the remnants everywhere and wait for news."
When everyone left, Cao Cao sat alone under the tree, frowning, wondering!
Cao Cao picked up a withered and yellow leaf on the ground and looked it over carefully in front of his eyes. His eyes, which were originally calm as usual, now showed a gloomy look.
Since the pacification of the Million Yellow Turban Army, Cao Cao occupied Yanzhou and was always full of ambitions. He even began to plot Xuzhou with great ambitions.
But in a short period of time, the huge Yanzhou was captured by Lu Bu, and the [-] elite were also beaten in repeated battles.
Now, hiding in the mountains, the army's morale is in turmoil and food is insufficient, and it is almost at a dead end.
What should I do?
Even if Cao Cao is more self-confident than others, but at the moment, he is extremely depressed.
Just as Cao Cao looked at the withered leaves and remembered the environment he was in, there was another rush of footsteps not far away.
Not long after, Le Jin walked over quickly with a few people from a distance.
Seeing these people, Cao Cao's eyebrows moved, and a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in his eyes.
Among these many people, there are two soldiers whose clothes are completely different from those worn by Cao Jun's soldiers.
Jizhou soldiers and horses!
Soon, Le came not far away, cupped his hands and said, "Master, Jizhou sent a messenger, saying that there is news."
As the voice of the voice fell, two Jizhou soldiers hurried forward and cupped their hands.
"This subordinate has met Mr. Cao."
While speaking, a Jizhou messenger took out a letter and presented it with both hands.
"My lord ordered a letter to be delivered, please read it personally, Mr. Cao."
A guard stepped forward to take the letter and handed it to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao unfolded the letter and began to check the contents of the letter.
After reading it, Cao Cao's frowning brows were relaxed, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Go down and rest first, wait a moment, and I will write back to you."
Cao Cao watched the two Jizhou envoys leave, and then turned his head and told the guards, "Go and invite the generals, and say that you have something important to discuss."
"As ordered!"
Not long after, everyone with puzzled faces hurried over.
"My lord, ask me to come here, is there something important?"
Cao Cao nodded, "Our army failed in Yanzhou. Not only did we lose troops and generals, but we also lacked food and ordnance."
Speaking of this, Cao Cao picked up the letter in front of him, shook it in front of everyone, and said with a smile, "Just now, Ben Chugong sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that he could send us food and military supplies to relieve my lord's needs. .”
When everyone heard these words, they were overjoyed.
Yuan Shao occupies the land of the three states, which can be said to be rich and powerful. As long as he agrees to support, there will never be any shortage of food in the future.
What's more, Jizhou soldiers and horses have come to the border of Yanzhou, and they can send troops to help as long as they give an order.
Even if Lu Bu's son is brave, he may not be able to defeat the combined forces of the two armies.
"My lord, it's really great. With Ben Chugong's help, it's really easy to eliminate Lu Bu'er."
"Haha, the opportunity for revenge has finally come."
"Little Lu Bu, let's see how long you can go crazy!"
Seeing everyone's joyful expressions, Cao Cao also nodded in satisfaction, "I have brought you here this time to tell you that although our army has been temporarily at a disadvantage, with the help of Lord Benchu, I believe we will be able to recover soon." Take back Yanzhou."
After everyone left, Cao Cao found Cheng Yu, who had been silent all this time, standing by the side without moving, feeling strange.
"Zhongde, why did you stay?"
Cheng Yu only had one arm left, so he couldn't give it away, so he could only bow slightly and ask slowly.
"My lord, I'm afraid it's not that simple for Ben Chugong to agree to help me?"
Cao Cao was taken aback, "Zhongde, why did you say that?"
Cheng Yu sighed, "The matter has come to this, why should my lord hide it, let me tell you about the conditions of Lord Benchu, and let everyone discuss it together."
Cao Cao stared at Cheng Yu with wide-eyed eyes, and after a long time, he suddenly sighed, "Zhongde, I really can't hide anything from you."
Speaking of this, Cao Cao paused, and said with a wry smile, "Ben Chu Gong is indeed willing to help, but he wants someone to send his family to Yecheng."
"no!"
As soon as Cao Cao's words fell, Cheng Yu interrupted, "Master, you must not agree to this condition."
Cao Cao frowned, "Zhongde, why not?"
Cheng Yu bowed his body and said slowly, "In the past, Tian Heng, Qi's family, three brothers..., but Heng Gu was a captive. At this time, how can Heng be so heartless!"
The meaning of these words is to say.
The former Tian Heng was once a nobleman of the Qi State, and the three brothers were named kings successively.
And the strength of the individual is extraordinary, owning thousands of miles of land, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, standing side by side with the rest of the princes and ruling the roost.
Later, Liu Bang, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, seized the world, but Tian Heng became a general instead.
The originally high-ranking princes have now become the ones who obey orders in offense and defense. Under such circumstances, can Tian Heng be reconciled?
After Cao Cao heard these words, he said almost subconsciously.
"This is the most shameful thing for a man, and of course he won't be reconciled."
