Langya County, Yangdu County.
When he learned that Cao Cao had defeated Tao Qian and won many battles, Cao Song was not happy. Instead, he became more and more anxious.
This meant that Langya County was no longer safe!
Cao Song had never approved of Cao Cao raising his army. Therefore, when Cao Cao raised his army in Chen Liu, he transferred his family assets to Langya County. This place was far away from Luoyang and was enough to avoid disaster!
But now.
Langya County was no longer safe!
First, Tao Qian attacked Taishan County, and then Cao Cao counterattacked Xuzhou.
Once this war started, it would be difficult to resolve it!
"De 'er, how long more before the land in Yangdu can be sold?”
Cao Song once again summoned his second son Cao De to inquire.
Compared to Cao Song's impatience, Cao De was somewhat disapproving."Father, brother has won consecutive battles. Tao Qian definitely won't be able to stop him! Why do we have to sell the land at a low price?”
"After brother destroys Tao Qian, Langya County will be the safest place!”
"What do you know!" "Tao Qian has been in charge of Xuzhou for many years. Tancheng is high and deep. There is enough food in the north. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. How long has your brother been the herdsman of Yanzhou? How could he have so much grain to attack Tancheng?”
"If the battle goes slightly wrong, your brother can only retreat to Yanzhou.”
"At that time, Tao Qian will definitely vent his anger on this old man!”
Cao Song had lived his entire life and had always been careful. He would run away as soon as he sensed something was wrong!
It was the same for escaping from Langya County today!
"Tell the aristocratic families in Yangdu County to sell it at half the price. If they are still unwilling to buy it, I will give it to Zang Ba and Sun Guan for free!”
Zang Ba and Sun Guan were both powerhouses of Langya County.
He had elite private soldiers under him.
If they had Cao Song's land, then Zang Ba and Sun Guan would truly have a foothold in Yangdu County!
If Zang Ba and Sun Guan were to gain a foothold, the powerful families of Yangdu County would definitely suffer.
Cao Song was using an open scheme!
"Father, if we do this, we will offend all the powerful families in Yangdu County!”Cao De was a little unwilling and was still calculating the benefits of that small piece of land.
Cao Song glared at him and shouted,"So what if I offend you? This old man will never come to Yangdu County again! You have the same parents, why are you so stupid! Quickly do it!"
Cao Song had five sons, but other than the eldest son, Cao Cao, the other four were either boorish men or silkpants. This made Cao Song feel helpless!
Seeing Cao Song's anger, Cao De did not dare to disobey.
Under Cao Song's overt scheme, the aristocratic families of Yangdu County no longer dared to lower the price.
What if Cao Song was really ruthless and lured Zang Ba and Sun Guan over? That would truly be called inviting a wolf into the house!
Cao Song loaded the family assets into more than a hundred carriages and dismissed most of the servants.
These hundred cars would take at least one or two months to reach Chenliu from Yangdu County.
Cao Song had to leave Tao Qian's territory while Cao Cao was still attacking him!
But Cao Song did not know.
Tao Qian had long given strict orders at the various checkpoints to not allow Cao Song to pass!
As soon as he left Yangdu County, Tao Qian was stopped by his son Tao Shang.
"Envoy Tao has always been gentle and pure. In the past, he was also a subject of this old man. Could it be that you want to take this old man's life today?”Seeing Tao Shang blocking his way, Cao Song immediately knew that things were not good.
"Uncle Cao, my father has always respected you. But now, your son and my father are at war. If Uncle Cao insisted on leaving, he was afraid of chaos and disaster.”
"Don't worry! "Your son and my father only have different political views. It's not a disaster for your family. Stay in Langya County in peace. I won't neglect you!"”
Cao Song's eyes darkened.
Tao Shang did not come early or late, but he came when he had sold his assets. His intention was self-evident.
If he insisted on leaving, Tao Shang would definitely find a reason to kill Cao Song and rob the hundreds of carriages of gold, silver, and jewelry!
"Nephew is really thoughtful!" Cao Song didn't say much to Tao Shang, but he didn't return to Yangdu County either. Instead, he set up camp in the wilderness.
"Young Master, why not just kill Cao Song?”Yellow Turban General Zhang Kai suggested in a low voice.
As a Yellow Turban, he had long coveted the gold, silver, and jewelry in Tao Qian's hundreds of carriages!
"No rush!" Tao Shang shook his head. Cao Cao's army was at its peak and had won many battles. Keeping Cao Song alive was beneficial for negotiating with Cao Cao when the situation was extremely unfavorable!”
"It's really Father's order. General Zhang, you must restrain your subordinates!”
Tsk ~
He had thought that he would gain some benefits by serving Tao Qian.
In the end, he might as well live happily in the village!
Zhang Kai secretly snorted, but his expression towards Tao Shang became more and more respectful,""Young Master, don't worry. I will definitely restrain His Majesty!”
..
At this moment.
In a forest not far from Yangdu County.
Zhao Mu, Yu Jin, Cao Ang, and Cao Anmin had been hiding in the mountains for three days.
After all, this was Tao Qian's territory. The whereabouts of the five hundred soldiers had to be careful to avoid being discovered by Tao Qian!
"Report!"
"Young Master, traces of Xu Prefecture soldiers have been found thirty miles away!”
