Chapter 195 An anxious Xuzhou

Xuzhou, Xia Pi, Cao's mansion.

Cao Bao, Cao Hong, Cao Hu and other Cao clan members gathered together, and the topic was always around the family of Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou.

"Brother, if we don't go to the governor's house to congratulate you, Tao Qian will definitely be dissatisfied with me, Cao!"

Cao Hong looked at his elder brother Cao Bao worriedly and expressed his concerns.

"When the court discussed before, the elder brother planned to plot against Tao Qian, which must have made Tao Qian unhappy!"

"If you don't take the opportunity to show your kindness at this time and resolve the resentment in Tao Qian's heart, you will definitely make Tao Qian think that my Cao family is arrogant, arrogant, and look down on him Tao family, and want to break with him Tao family!"

Tao Ying was appointed as General of Wei and was named Marquis of Jinan. The news of Luoyang's residence has been spread to Xuzhou.

This shocking news naturally caused surprise and uproar among the big surnames and powerful people from all over Xuzhou.

However, the powerful people who have been able to occupy Xuzhou for several generations have naturally developed the ability to change their minds and avoid bad luck. They have changed their past disdain for the Tao family and come to the door to congratulate and show their diligence.

As the head of the Cao family, Cao Bao not only did he, the military officer who was promoted by Tao Qian, come to the door to congratulate him as soon as possible, but he also did not allow people from the family to join in the fun at the governor's house.

"I, Cao, look down on him as an outsider, so what?"

Cao Hu, the third elder of the Cao family, is a strong-willed person and is arrogant and unrestrained. He is a famous bully in Xia Pi.

At this moment, a look of disdain appeared in the sinister eyes, and I didn't care about my second brother Cao Hong's concern at all.

"This is Xuzhou, Xiapi; it is not Yangzhou, it is not his hometown of Tao Qian's old man!"

"If it weren't for me, Cao, could he, Tao Qian, be in the position of stable governor in Xuzhou?"

Cao Hu, who was loudly voiced, brought his dissatisfaction with Tao Qian to the extreme, and his voice shocked everyone in the room to buzz.

Cao Hong was startled and quickly pulled Cao Hu and stopped him.

"Three brother, be careful of your words and be careful of the walls!"

After stopping Cao Hu, Cao Hong advised Cao Bao again, wanting him to lower his posture.

"Brother, the current situation may be unfavorable to me, Cao!"

"Not to mention that Tao Ying was appointed as the general of the guard by the emperor, in Xuzhou, Zang Ba was appointed as the commander of the cavalry. Mi family wanted to marry the Tao family, and Wang Lang showed signs of falling to the Tao family. I, Cao family, have already

Being isolated!"

Cao Hong, who looked worried, felt a little uneasy in his heart.

"Hmph! I want to use an exiled criminal to divide my military power, restrain and restrain me, and he, Tao Qian, made the wrong plan!"

After all, Cao Bao was still angry with Tao Qian, and felt that Tao Qian was a little bit like killing the donkey. I was sorry for Cao's "benefactor", which was Tao Qian who neglected him. Cao Bao.

"However, my second brother's concerns make sense, so I have to prevent Tao Qian from taking risks!"

"The last time I discussed the court, I realized that Tao Qian's old man seemed to be dissatisfied with me, Cao, and I was afraid he had a desire to kill!"

When Cao Hu heard this, he was furious and jumped up, pulling out half of the knife around his waist, and roaring with anger.

"Old Tao Qian is crazy?"

"Brother, why don't you just order all the troops to enter the governor's mansion and kill Tao Qian's sect!"

Cao Hong was shocked, stood up suddenly, and looked at Cao Hu in horror.

"Third brother, don't forget that Tao Ying has been appointed as General of Guard and has soldiers in his hands!"

Cao Bao sneered and glared at Cao Hong disapprovingly.

"Don't say whether Tao Ying'er can survive the 50,000 Wuhuan rebels this time. Even if he has soldiers, he is still a soldier of the court, not his private soldier of the Tao!"

"If he dares to launch troops against my Cao family, don't say that the Xuzhou family will not agree, even the court will not let him go; could Tao Ying'er want to follow Zhang Chun, Zhang Ju and others, and raise troops to rebel?"

Langya Kingdom, Yangdu, Zhuge family mansion.

In a newly-bred thatched cottage in the backyard, two three-eyed stoves were burned, and the copper pot placed on the stove was boiling.

Aside a stove, Zhuge Xuan and his fifteen-year-old nephew Zhuge Jin sat around.

Next to another stove, eight-year-old Zhuge Liang and six-year-old Zhuge Jun were sitting.

Zhuge is a prominent family in Langya. His ancestor Zhuge Feng was once a Sili Captain during the reign of Emperor Yuan of the Western Han Dynasty.

Zhuge Liang's father Zhuge Gui was the governor of Taishan County in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

At this time, Zhuge Gui had just passed away. Zhuge Xuan left Jingzhou and returned to Xuzhou Langya to take care of his cousin's widow and children.

"The imperial court appointed Tao Chongguang as General of Guard, and the official residence of the Marquis of Jinan has spread throughout Xuzhou. Tell me, is he capable of destroying the 50,000 Wuhuan rebels who invaded Jizhou?"

In addition to guarding Zhuge Gui's tomb and having nothing to do when he is idle, Zhuge Xuan will occasionally take the exams of his talents and knowledge of several nephews, and give some advice.

"As long as the food and grass are guaranteed, it will take some time for Jinan Hou to succeed!"

Zhuge Jin took the lead in expressing his opinion, and he was confident that Tao Ying defeated the Wuhuan rebels.

"General Tao can quickly resolve the Wuhuan rebels who invaded Jizhou!"

Compared to his elder brother Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang was more confident and expressed his optimism towards Tao Ying without hesitation.

"As soon as the Wuhuan people have been invading Jizhou for a long time. They did not come for land, but just to plunder. Now they have gained a lot, so they naturally have to withdraw back to Youzhou."

"Secondly, now it's winter, and the weather will become colder later, and the Wuhuan people are also beginning to think about their homes."

Zhuge Liang's bright and deep eyes looked at his uncle Zhuge Xuan, and added another surprising sentence.

"In fact, even if the court no longer sends troops to eliminate the Wuhuan rebels, they will take the initiative to leave Jizhou."

Zhuge Jun, who was sitting beside Zhuge Liang, suddenly lit up when he heard this.

"Didn't it mean that Jinan Hou had a great encounter with this, and he got a bargain!"

Zhuge Xuan, Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang heard this and looked at each other, smiling, shaking his head gently without saying a word.

As a generation of elites in the late Han and Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge knew very well, both men and women, that there was no free bargain in this world.

Even if you get a bargain, you have to rely on your strength.

Pengcheng Kingdom. Prime Minister's Mansion.

Pengcheng Xiang Xue Li sat on the chair, took a sip of tea comfortably, and looked at the Xuzhou County and State sitting on the side to engage in Zhao Yu.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

"Yuanda, do you still think Tao Gongzu's two sons are stupid and the second son is not smart. Do you only know how to be extravagant and unbearable?"

Xue Li looked at Zhao Yu, and his eyes slowly became solemn.

"When Tao Chongguang was in Xuzhou, he did not show any signs of dew. Once he left Taishan County, he was not only appointed as General of Guard by the Emperor, but also named Marquis of Jinan. Tao Gongzu naturally no longer had to hide his strengths and hide his bride!"

Zhao Yu's face froze, he stood up slowly, staring at Xue Li with bright eyes.

"Xue Xiang, do you think Tao Chongguang can wipe out 50,000 Wuhuan rebels this time?"

Xue Li shook his head, he didn't dare to give Zhao Yu a positive answer.

"I'm afraid it's difficult; at least it's not possible to succeed overnight!"

Deep in Xue Li's heart, he still doesn't like Tao Ying, who became a monk halfway through.

After all, before becoming the magistrate of Taishan County, Tao Ying and Wen were not successful, martial arts were not successful, and there was no trace of contribution to the country and the people, let alone outstanding achievements.

"Although the Yellow Turban bandits in Qingzhou are numerous, Xu He, Zhang Rao, Sima Ju and others are mediocre people. They brought a group of wolves that originally ate meat into sheep, and thus easily disintegrated by Tao Chongguang!"

"The Wuhuan rebels are different. Although the number is only 50,000, they are all cavalry galloping on the grasslands. Besides, Su Puyan, the leader of the Wuhuan vassal state of Liaodong, is a hungry wolf that eats people!"

Xue Li is both literary and military, and is naturally familiar with military affairs.

Unlike Zhao Yu, who has only a slight understanding of military strategy, otherwise he would not have been drunk by a few glasses of wine, and he would have taken his men and killed his life.

"What if Tao Chongguang failed to defeat the Wuhuan rebels this time?"

Xue Li glanced at Zhao Yu, shook his head in his heart, Zhao Yu's question was a bit childish.

"With the character of the emperor, coupled with the ministers in Jizhou in the court, how could Tao Ying continue to serve as General Wei? Even the title of Marquis of Jinan may not be able to be preserved!"

Zhao Yuxin, and he thought about this clearly.

"The interests of the Han Dynasty are so great, and they are divided into three parts of relatives, eunuchs and gentry. How could it be that the Tao family could join in and share the food with them!"

Once Tao Ying fails, all forces will naturally take the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and kill the powerful Tao family in the cradle.

"But what if Tao Chongguang lucky enough to defeat the Wuhuan rebels?"

"Or, now it's winter, and the Wuhuan rebels voluntarily withdraw from Jizhou?"

There will always be a situation in which Zhao Yu naturally has to think of the other side and be prepared for both.

"Yuanda, this is another reason why Li advises you not to be impulsive!"

Zhao Yu took the initiative to raise this question, and Xue Li, who had not wanted to say it, said what he was thinking.

"The world of this great man is now in chaos. In the future, he may be in a state of separatist rule. With most of the land in Xuzhou in his hand, Tao Qian will never sit in his seat and do nothing!"
p>

"So, the gains and losses at the moment are not important, and even Tao Qian, who is old, is not important. What is important is the current General of Wei Tao Ying!"

As soon as Xue Li finished speaking, a look of horror suddenly appeared in Zhao Yu's eyes.

"This is impossible!"

He stared at Xue Li with a steady look for a long time, and Zhao Yufang, who was sweating in cold sweat, muttered to himself.
