Xu Prefecture Governor's Office.
Tao Qian was sitting at the head of the table, dozing off.
Below him were the Xu Prefecture aides.
There are celebrities Zhao Yu, the main general Cao Bao and so on.
The crowd discussed animatedly.
"Yuan Gonglu is sending troops to attack Cao Mengde. This is our opportunity!”
"Taking advantage of the battle between the two sides, we can march into Yanzhou and easily take down several counties!”
"If Yuan Gonglu wins, Cao Mengde won't be able to get these counties back from us. Yuan Gonglu wants us to pin Cao Mengde down, so he won't want these counties.”
"Even if Cao Mengde wins, with his military strength, it will be a miserable victory. He won't be able to take back these counties in a short period of time!”
"As long as we show a little mercy, these places can be incorporated into Xuzhou! This is beneficial and harmless!"
Cao Bao's saliva flew everywhere as he spoke. He looked very interested.
In this chaotic world, no one would mind having a large territory.
And now, Yuan Shu and Cao Cao were in conflict.
As Xuzhou was adjacent to Yanzhou, if Cao Bao did not take some benefits from it, he would feel sorry for his geographical location!
"Cao Mengde's Yanzhou and Yuan Benchu's Jizhou are allies. Last year, the Yuan brothers fought once, and Cao Mengde also helped Yuan Benchu.”
"Now, Yuan Gonglu wants to cut off Yuan Benchu's wings and destroy Cao Mengde. Cao Mengde may have fewer soldiers, but Yuan Benchu will not ignore him.”
"If we, Xu Prefecture, interfere, I'm afraid there will be changes.”
After listening to Cao Bao's analysis, the famous scholar Zhao Yu also spoke.
Zhao Yu was from Langya and had been famous since childhood.
Tao Qian fancied his talent and coaxed and coaxed Zhao Yu for a long time before inviting him out of the mountain.
The moment Zhao Yu left the mountain, he took on the position of a county's prefect.
"I naturally know this. So what if Yuan Benchu sends troops to support us? The reinforcements would definitely join forces with Cao Mengde to stop Yuan Gonglu.”Cao Bao frowned slightly.
He still felt that this was a great opportunity for Xu Prefecture.
Tao Qian was taking a nap.
However, he could still hear the quarrels of the people below.
Tao Qian also felt that this was an opportunity for Xu Prefecture.
However, he did not speak and quietly waited for someone to change his mind.
Cao Bao didn't say much. He waved his hand and signaled for a soldier to bring the map.
Cao Bao spread out the map in front of everyone and pointed to a place.
"This is Ren City in the southern part of Yanzhou. It has always been suppressing Xuzhou. If we have any plans for the north, this place is the first place!”
"While Cao Mengde has no energy to deal with it, as long as we take down Ren City, we can attack Yanzhou and retreat back to Xuzhou!”
"We can't not take it here!"
After Zhao Yu saw Cao Bao clearly explain the pros and cons, he did not stop him and nodded slightly, agreeing with Cao Bao's words.
Seeing this.
Tao Qian also opened his eyes.
"It seems that everyone's opinions are unified. Let's do it this way. While their two families are fighting, we'll take Ren City.”
Tao Qian made the final decision.
"Report!"
Someone ran in from outside.
"Read it."
Tao Qian said.
"Yuan Benchu has sent reinforcements and is heading towards Yanzhou. It seems that he is marching towards Ren City!”
The person announced.
The entire place was dead silent!
Tao Qian's subordinates all had looks of disbelief in their eyes!
They were just about to attack Ren City!
In the end, Yuan Shao's reinforcements headed towards Ren City!
"Impossible!"
"It's normal for Cao Mengde to ask for help, but he'll definitely send this reinforcement to the front to fight Yuan Gonglu with him!”
" Why are you in Ren City?!"
Cao Bao's face was filled with suspicion.
However, he could not figure it out for a moment.
Thus, when this news came, Tao Qian held back the order to send troops to Ren City and quietly waited for news from the front.
A few days later.
News came from the front line.
It was said that Yuan Shao's reinforcements had already entered Ren City and a few nearby counties, and their flags were also raised with great fanfare. Thus, Tao Qian could only give up on his goal of attacking Ren City.
Xu Prefecture Governor's Office.
Even though they were unable to attack Ren City, Tao Qian and the others were still glowing.
"Although we didn't manage to take down the Yanzhou County, our Xu Prefecture still profited!”
"Look at Cao Mengde. He called for reinforcements, but instead of attacking Yuan Shu together with him, he stationed them near Ren City!”
"Why?"
"They're afraid of our Xu Prefecture!"
"I heard that Cao Mengde was a hero in the early years. Now that I see him, he's also a coward!”
A trace of mockery flashed across Tao Qian's face.
The feeling of being valued…That was great!
At this moment, another battle report came from the front.
"Cao Mengde has defeated Yuan Gonglu's allied forces and is pursuing them for six hundred li!”
Hearing this, Tao Qian's heart skipped a beat.
Cao Cao was indeed a ruthless person!
He could even do something like chasing for six hundred miles!
Immediately after, a message below caused Tao Qian's face to freeze.
"Cao Mengde and Yuan Benchu retreated after chasing for six hundred li.”
"Yuan Benchu's reinforcements are also in the pursuit team?" Tao Qian asked subconsciously. Aren't they in Ren City?"
" According to the news, Ren City's troops are just decoys. Their main force has been transferred to the front line. It's just that they didn't take the flag with them…" The man below braced himself.
In an instant, Tao Qian's entire body trembled.
The ones who dared not send troops to Xuzhou in Rencheng Town were actually suspicious soldiers?!
He recalled what he had just said.
It was said that Cao Cao was afraid of Xu Prefecture, so he had deployed a large number of troops!
The words that he had said seemed to be slapping his face crazily!
It wasn't a heavy army!
They were just decoys!
A mere suspicious army made Xu Prefecture not dare to attack Ren City!
Thinking of this, Tao Qian's blood rushed to his heart!
" Cao Ah deceived me!!!"
In the next moment, Tao Qian spurted out a mouthful of blood!
