The Supreme Call of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 89
Sure enough, as Liu Xiao expected, Cao Cao is now in command of Yanzhou, and he is the shepherd of Yanzhou. His advisers are like clouds, and generals are like rain. He thought that he had established a firm foothold in Yanzhou, and other idlers could not shake him, so he sent the Taishan prefect to Langya County to win the battle. Father and his family came to Yanzhou.

As a result, when they arrived in Xuzhou, Tao Qian wanted to win over Cao Cao, so he sent General Zhang Kai and [-] elite troops to go north to escort Cao Cao's family to Yanzhou. However, just halfway there, Zhang Kai took Cai's idea and sent all the Cao family members to Yanzhou. After slaughtering everyone, Ying Shao escaped with all his might. He did not dare to return to Yanzhou and went straight to Jizhou to join Yuan Shao.

When the news reached Yanzhou, Cao Cao fainted and cried bitterly. The revenge of killing his father was irreconcilable. Cao Cao put all the hatred on Tao Qian, and ordered Cheng Yu and Xiahoudun to stay in Yanzhou with an order. The [-] elite went straight to Xuzhou to avenge their hatred.

Along the way, the furious Cao Cao slaughtered wantonly, and the people along the way were killed and wounded. As for Tao Qian in Xuzhou, he was almost paralyzed with fright. The [-] elites, plus Cao Cao's soldiers were fine and brave, and their combat power was strong. Xuzhou can resist it!
Tao Qian was trapped in Xuzhou City by Cao Cao in one fell swoop, complaining that every day should not be done, and that the land is not working.

"Your Majesty has been in Xuzhou for a long time. The people are grateful and united as a city. You only need to stand firm with the people. Even though you are not talented, you are willing to go to other places to ask for reinforcements to relieve the crisis in Xuzhou!"

Tao Qian hesitated and said, "Zi Zhong, Cao Cao is strong, who can save Xuzhou from danger?"

Mi Zhu said in a deep voice: "I have an old relationship with Kong Rong in Beihai, so I should go to Beihai to ask Kong Wenju to send troops to help; now Liu Xuanqian in Qingzhou is famous all over the world, he has a kind heart, is deeply supported by the people, and is even more relative of the Han family, and his status is respected. , and Qingzhou is adjacent to Xuzhou, if Liu Xuanqian sends troops, he will arrive at Xuzhou City in less than a month, and the siege of Xuzhou can be broken in the palm of his hand!"

Tao Qian was overjoyed, and said anxiously: "Zizhong must put his heart into it, and all the millions of people in Xuzhou will be in Zizhong's hands."

Mi Zhu took the letter and left Xuzhou straight to Beihai to see Kong Rong.

After reading Tao Qian's letter and hearing Mi Zhu's story, Kong Rong pondered for a while and remained silent.

"Zizhong, it's not that Kong Rong is unwilling to help. It's because Liu Xuanqian governs Qingzhou now, and the six counties of Qingzhou are all under the control of the envoy. Kong Rong has no military power. It's hard to save Xuzhou, and Lord Jun must personally send troops to break the siege."

Mi Zhu Wenyan was startled, and said anxiously: "Brother Wen Ju, I hope Brother Wen Ju can help me in this matter, and I can persuade Lord Shijun to send troops!"

Kong Rong hesitated a little, and said solemnly: "Forget it, Zizhong and I have never been friends. I will personally go to Qingzhou with Zizhong to meet the envoy, and please send troops!"

In Qingzhou City, Liu Xiao has already received the news that Cao Cao sent troops to Xuzhou.

However, Xun Yu, Guo Jia, and Fang Xuanling couldn't sit still.

"My lord, now that Yuan Shao has two counties, he can defeat Gongsun Zan and take Youzhou in at most two years. Looking at the world, no one can match; Cao Mengde is a hero in troubled times, full of talents, and he has many capable ministers and generals. Yanzhou, once Xuzhou is also acquired by Cao Cao, you see, my land of Qingzhou will be surrounded by Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, hanging in a corner, and will be defeated by the two sooner or later. Between Xun Yu, we must not sit back and watch Cao Cao capture Xuzhou !"

Xun Yu said anxiously.

Guo Jia nodded and agreed: "Master, what Wen Ruo said is that once Cao Cao takes Xuzhou, we will have no soldiers to use everywhere. Qingzhou is also adjacent to two powerful enemies, so it is difficult to have a chance to save the world! Why don't you take advantage of Yuan Shao? If you have an opportunity to attack Youzhou, go south to fight Cao Cao and compete for Xuzhou!"

Fang Xuanling shook his head and sighed: "The fight for Xuzhou is probably due to an unknown teacher..."

Everyone was talking about it, as for the generals in the hall, they were all gearing up, hoping to go to war, general, only by fighting can they make meritorious deeds and be crowned princes in one battle!
Liu Xiao smiled and said: "My lord, don't be in a hurry. Xuan Ling is right. The master is unknown. We just need to wait patiently and look for the opportunity to learn from Xuzhou. This opportunity will not take too long. Sooner or later, there will definitely be news..."

During the discussion, the Chinese army ran into the conference hall, knelt down on one knee and said, "I am here to report to you, Mr. Beihai Kongfu, please see him outside the residence!"

Liu Xiao knew it, it was finally here!
"Please bring in the text!"

Liu Xiao looked at Xun Yu and said with a smile: "Wen Ruo, this is not it, the opportunity has come, and the excuse we want to leave Xuzhou has come!"

Xun Yu and Guo Jiafang Xuanling were taken aback for a moment, then asked in astonishment, "What do you mean, my lord?"

Liu Xiao laughed and said, "You can tell when you see Wenju!"

While talking, Kong Rong and Mi Zhu walked into the meeting hall.

"Wenju, you're not Zhigong in Beihai, why are you coming to Qingzhou?"

Liu Xiao asked.

Kong Rong hurriedly bowed and said: "See my lord, Kong Rong came to Qingzhou this time for the matter of Xuzhou, and recommended him on behalf of Kong Rong. This is a sage in Xuzhou, don't be in Mi Zhu!"

Mi Zhu hastily bowed deeply and said, "Xuzhou Mi Zhu, I have met General Xuangan!"

Xuzhou Mi Zhu!

Xun Yu and Guo Jia looked at each other, and immediately understood, this is the opportunity the lord mentioned, I'm afraid it will all fall on this Mi Zhu!
Liu Xiao stood up quickly and said with a smile: "Mr. Zizhong, Liu Xiao has heard of his name for a long time. He heard that Zizhong was working beside Tao Gongzu. How did he get to Qingzhou?"

Mi Zhu said in a deep voice: "General Xuangan, Mi Zhu was sent by Tao Gong to Qingzhou to ask for help. The former Cao Cao ordered people to go to Langya County to pick up his family and go to Yanzhou for reunion. He passed Xuzhou. Tao Gong admired the hero Cao Mengde, so he sent someone to escort him. Unexpectedly, the general Zhang Kai, who was born as a golden rebellious thief, had a wicked heart and slaughtered Cao Cao's family halfway. His father Cao Cao died tragically under Zhang Kai's hands. Now Cao Cao has assembled tens of thousands of troops to attack Xuzhou, wanting to avenge his father. Come to Qingzhou to ask for help, General Xuangan's reputation for benevolence and righteousness is well known throughout the world, I hope the general will take pity on the millions of people in Xuzhou and send troops to rescue them!"

Liu Xiao straightened his face and said solemnly: "Tao Gongzu sits in Xuzhou, and he still knows my name Liu Xiao? I have so much faith, if I don't save him, how can I be worthy of Tao Gongzu? Seeing the people of Xuzhou caught in the flames of war, I am even more ashamed of Xuzhou, but, Cao Cao I have never had any complaints with me. If I directly launched an army to conquer, it would not be beautiful. Naturally, I should first be courteous and then fight. It would be better for Tao Gongzu to resolve it first and stop fighting. If Cao Cao insists on fighting, I, Liu Xiao, will not be afraid of him. I will fight with Xuzhou. Show it off with Cao Cao!"
