Chapter 40 Zhang Kai: The Cao family is too rich!

Not long after Xiyu and Dianwei left, Cao Cao became increasingly panicked.

After probably slowing down for a while, he personally ordered three thousand tiger tigers and led the tigers directly to Taishan County, intending to meet them along the way.

At the same time.

After coming out of Juancheng, Xi Yu looked at Dian Wei.

"Awei, you follow, I'll go first!"

Dian Wei could only ride an ordinary war horse. After leaving the south gate, Xi Yu realized that the opponent's speed could not keep up with him.

We must ensure that the old lady is safe and sound during this trip, and we cannot waste time rushing.

Calculating the time since Cao Cao received the letter, Cao Song and his party may have arrived in Xuzhou.

Xi Yu knew that once Cao Song met Tao Qian's men, it would be too late.

Dianwei nodded on the side.

When he came out, he knew that Xi Yu planned to take him to save people. Naturally, he did not dare to delay this effort because of himself.

"Sir, go ahead and I'll be back soon!"

Dian Wei pinched the horse's belly, and the horse beneath him had begun to lose weight.

The former didn't say much, tied the tiger-headed golden gun behind his back, and Jueying's speed increased in an instant.

……

Xuzhou, overseas.

After the letter was sent, Cao Song led a large family and set off directly from Langya.

Soon after, the Cao family arrived at the border of Xuzhou.

During this trip, the convoy moved slowly like a long snake.

Surrounding the team were several guards hired by Cao Song.

At this moment, in the luxurious carriage led by the leader, the curtain on the side of the carriage was slowly lifted.

"De'er, where are you now?"

The voice came from the car window. After all, the former Sangong was getting older, but there was still a hint of majesty in the voice.

Cao Song was in the car window, looking out with squinted eyes. His hair was tied up in a bun at the top, and some of his long, slightly gray hair fell from both sides.

He was leaning against the window. As soon as the sound came out, a young man on horseback not far from the car window quickly drove his horse to the car window.

"Father, we have arrived in Xuzhou!"

The speaker was Cao De, the youngest son of Cao Song and the younger brother of Cao Cao. He was only in his early twenties.

“We’ve arrived in Xuzhou!”

Cao Song in the window nodded, leaning against the window with a smile on his lips.

Since Cao Cao started to raise troops, he fully supported his son.

After Cao Cao attacked Dong, he took his whole family to avoid trouble in Langya, and now, in just a few years.

Unexpectedly, the boy who was quite naughty when he was young has created a huge reputation in the blink of an eye.

Now, Cao Cao has transformed into a Yanzhou shepherd.

It was even commended by the emperor's edict.

With such an achievement, Cao Song was naturally extremely satisfied.

After Cao Cao established his foothold in Yanzhou, he began to make arrangements to move his family to Yanzhou. Now it is time to rely on this son.

It only takes a few days to reach Yanzhou from Xuzhou.

Soon, soon!

"Father, I think the eldest brother should have received our letter by now, and he will send someone to pick us up, right?"

Cao De glanced left and right.

After arriving in Xuzhou, he couldn't help but feel some inexplicable worries.

Along the way, they carried the banner of the Cao family and avoided the bandits they encountered on the way.

However, the Cao family's motorcade this time was too long. In such a hurry, it would probably take several days to get to Yanzhou.

But now, they had left Langya and were in the unfamiliar territory of Xuzhou, which made him feel a little worried.

"What are you afraid of? Your brother is now the shepherd of Yanzhou. The princes in the world naturally want to give your brother face."

"Even Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian should have sent someone to escort us when he learned that we were passing by. Just wait, Tao Qian's people will come soon!"

Cao Song said with confidence. As soon as he said these words, the corner of Cao De's mouth twitched.

"But, I heard that Tao Qian attacked my eldest brother in the previous episode. I'm worried!"

"Don't worry, I know that old guy Tao Qian, he doesn't dare!"

……

Xuzhou, Zhoumufu!

As a shepherd in Xuzhou, Tao Qian received the news immediately when Cao Song and his party were about to enter the country.

At present, Yanzhou is eyeing Xuzhou and learns that Cao Song is passing through.

The subordinates on the side directly asked him to hug Cao Song and his party.

Use this to blackmail Cao Cao.

Although Tao Qian was a little moved, once such a thing was done, he and Cao Cao would definitely be incompatible.

When Tao Qian was hesitating whether to detain Cao Song, someone next to him suddenly spoke.

"My lord, no!"

"I am waiting now to send Cao Cao's father out of Xuzhou safely!"

"If something happens to his father in Xuzhou, then we in Xuzhou will lose our justice. At that time, Cao Cao will attack in anger. What should I do in Xuzhou?"

Now that Cao Cao is entrenched in Yanzhou, he has gathered more than 300,000 Yellow Turban soldiers. The momentum is so huge that even Yuan Shu has hit a snag.

How can Xuzhou be Cao Cao’s opponent?

As soon as the counselor below opened his mouth, Tao Qian reacted abruptly.

Yes!

If something happened to Cao Song in Xuzhou, it would not be equivalent to handing Cao Cao a knife against Xuzhou.

I sent it myself.

No, we must not let anything happen to Cao Song!

"Come here, see where Mr. Cao is, and send someone to lead an army to escort him!"

……

After Tao Qian gave the order, Captain Zhang Kai immediately took the order and left.

Soon after, Zhang Kai led three thousand light cavalry to the road that Cao Song and his party must pass and waited.

The next day, it was just dawn!

Zhang Kai waited all night for the Cao family's motorcade, and was finally spotted by scouts.

Zhang Kai originally planned to escort Cao Song across the border honestly, but when he saw the Cao family's motorcade from a distance, he was completely stunned.

The motorcade in the distance looked like a long snake from the moment it appeared.

I can't seem to see my head at a glance.

The captain who saw this scene couldn't help but gasped: "General, this Cao family is too rich!"

"How much money has been raised? I'm afraid it can support an army of 100,000 people!"

The captain's words made Zhang Kai feel a little confused.

Yes, this money can probably feed an army of 100,000 people!

If he had so much money, why would he commit himself to Tao Qian?

Today, Tao Qian is old and dim, and his sons are all mediocre. Now the Han Dynasty is weak and the world is changing.

What is the way out if we follow Tao Qian?

If he intercepts the property of this caravan and stands alone on the mountain, or defectes to other princes, I think he can get ahead.

When the idea popped up in his mind, Zhang Kai couldn't stop his thoughts.

He looked at the longing in the eyes of the captain next to him, and the thoughts in his heart began to become more and more passionate.
