Chapter 118 New hatred and old hatred

On this day, Xuzhou Mu Taoqian sent away the messenger sent by Cao Cao, the pastor of Guanzhou, and discussed countermeasures with his confidant general and staff. At this time, Tao Qian only knew that Cao Cao had three super generals under his command. He did not know that Cao Cao's side also had a powerful and domineering continuous stone thrower. This kind of information is blocked: First, it shows that Cao Cao's side has done a good job of confidentiality. Second, Tao Qian's side is also deceived by Yuan Shao, the shepherd of Yizhou. According to the notice issued by Yuan Shao, Tao Qianyi Fang was bewitched. They thought that Cao Cao's participation in the rebel coalition was just for soy sauce.

The blocking of this kind of information makes Tao Qian embark on a road of no return. In his opinion, Cao Cao has three super generals, and it's not a big deal. After all, as we all know, the super generals only have a unique advantage in positional battles. Is he attacking the city? It's not worth the loss... The wall of Xuzhou City is as high as 15 meters, which is hard and strong; in Xuzhou City, there is plenty of grain and grass, and the city defense equipment is particularly complete; Xuzhou City has 18,000 officers and soldiers, plus the soldiers of the local rich clan, it is effortless to gather tens of thousands of troops. With such strength, relying on the defense of the city, what if Cao Cao has 100,000 soldiers? I can only look at the city and sigh...

Therefore, at the internal high-level meeting, Tao Qian said to everyone very boredly, "This Cao Aman is really too arrogant, more arrogant than a crab!" Your parents died in the territory of Xuzhou. What's the matter?! If all the relatives who died in Xuzhou City come to make trouble for Ben Mu, will Ben Mu do something else? ... This Cao Aqian really doesn't know what to do. He actually gave me a time limit for solving the case! Who does he think he is..."

The generals and civil servants present here all know the festival between Cao Cao and Tao Qian: when Cao Cao was the county magistrate, he once killed Zhenshuo's uncle with a five-color stick, and Qianshuo was the head of the ten permanent servants at that time, and his power was powerful. However, Cao Cao's father used all his strength to stop Jian Shuo's revenge. At that time, Jianshuo let Cao go under the persuasion of his colleagues. But the heart of hatred has not been put down. And Tao Qian's maternal line is Qian Shuo's sister. As a result, the hatred of the Qi family for Cao Cao was transferred to Tao Qian.

Xuzhou and the well water in Gongzhou have not violated the river. Now Cao Cao suddenly gave Tao Qian a notice. Can Tao Qian accept it? The answer is no.

Xuzhou Changshi Luhua followed Tao Qian's topic with angrily face and said, "What Tao Mu said is extremely true. It's really hit the nail on the head! In recent years, Cao Cao has indeed been domineering and domineering, even more than when he was young! Cao A's arms are long enough to reach into the boundary of Qingzhou... His parents died in an accident. God really opened his eyes!"

Long history Lu Hua's words immediately aroused Tao Qian's new hatred and old hatred: the old hatred naturally refers to Cao Cao's killing of his strong uncle; the new hatred refers to Cao Cao's strong rise in recent years, which really makes Tao Qian's people jealous. In contrast, Tao Qian seemed so incompetent that his reputation plummeted. When ordinary people encounter such a problem, how many people find the reason from themselves? Of course, all the feces and urine basins are buttoned on the other party's head. It's more fierce than the dunk in later basketball games.

"Ha ha..." Tao Qian listened to the flattery of the long history Lu Hua and felt very comfortable and comfortable. "Not to mention that I don't know how Cao Ayu died, even if I know it clearly, I won't tell you truthfully... Isn't Cao A long arm? If you really have the ability, come and investigate it thoroughly... Cao Ayu, Cao Ayu, you also have today!"

Tao Qian said that in the end, his face became ferocious. Although Tao Qian is an obscene civil official, his anger is also chilling. Others smiled softly, especially Zhang Hai, a general who had been nervous. When he heard Tao Qian's statement and felt Tao Qian's hatred for Cao Cao, he hung his heart and finally fell back to its original place. He also began to look comfortable talking and laughing with other generals.

From the beginning to the end, the whole meeting is the intention-**, the collective intention-**: From the state Mu Taoqian to the attendants who serve tea and water are all talking about Cao Cao in a high-profile way. From Cao Cao's childhood, lying and deceiving his elders to peeking at women bathing, to stealing the bride, and finally even Cao Cao's intention to assassinate. Dong Zhuo's heroic feat was said to be a bad act of deceiving the world...

It really looks good to you, pick the egg in the bone; if you don't like it, pick the bone in the egg. It's really a lot of money, and the bones are ecstasy.

After the meeting, Tao Qian did not take Cao Cao's notice seriously, and the days in Xuzhou were as usual. A few days later, the Dongcheng Gate of Xuzhou was blocked by thousands of cavalry. Tao Qian heard the news and rushed to the gate tower of Dongcheng City. He saw that it was actually Cao General Xia Houyuan and Cao Ren who led nearly 6,000 cavalry. The neatly arranged phalanxes stood quietly in the empty place. From the main general to the soldiers, everyone had a white scarf with a unified look of sadness.

Tao Qian just looked contemptuously at Cao Jun outside the moat. In his opinion, there was no cloud cart, ladder rushing and other siege equipment, that is, another 20,000 cavalry, what's the use? During the confrontation between the two sides, Cao Renxia and Hou Yuan did not talk to Tao Qian, and Tao Qian did not take the initiative to ask questions. After they exchanged each other's positions and thoughts with their eyes, Tao Qian left arrogantly.

Another day later, there was no movement of Cao Jun in Dongcheng, just camped. However, the West Gate of Xuzhou is different: Cao Cao personally led 60,000 troops to the city.

Tao Qian thought that Cao Cao would be angry with Tao Qian's perfunctory neglect, and finally waved his troops directly to Xuzhou City. However, the fierceness and speed of Cao Cao's arrival is beyond Tao Qian's imagination.

In Tao Qian's sight: more than a thousand novel stone throwers are arranged on the east bank of the moat, and nearly 10,000 volunteers are busy carrying large stones on the pontoon bridge. Cao Jun's camp automatically stretches five miles to the west, with various military flags fluttering in the wind, and dozens of cowhide drums are placed on both sides of the entrance of the camp. Under the morning sun, a team of Cao soldiers was esquiring out from the gate of the barracks.

Cao Bing's momentum shocked Tao Qian, but Cao Jun's behavior by the moat made him laugh: stone throwing machine? There are also hundreds of them in the city of Xuzhou. Cao Jun's stone-throwing machine is just a little bigger. Can it throw large stones at a distance of more than 1,000 meters?

It is also suitable for stone throwers. The defenders of the city have an advantage over the siege. After all, there are also walls as bunkers and obstacles, and the stone throwers for siege have no protective barriers... At that moment, Tao Qian felt that Cao Cao's head was flooded. In the face of the bad intentions of Cao's army, Tao Qian certainly also issued an order to gather troops, organize ethnic soldiers, and temporarily recruit rebels for defense.

When Cao Jun arranged the siege of the city, Tao Qian's side also completed the fortifications: heavy city defense equipment such as rolling wood and stone were placed on piles on the aisle of the city wall, and oil pots and fork poles, and light city defense equipment such as iron thisrhea were placed between the rolling wood and stone piles. Hundreds of old stone throwers are placed every ten meters, and small stones are also piled up like mountains.

After the Xuzhou soldiers completed the city defense, Tao Qian climbed to the gate tower again. After most of the day, he didn't see any necessary equipment for Cao Jun to attack the city, such as cloud carts and ladders. In this way, Tao Qian is happy. The opponent is embarrassed, especially the opponent with new and old hatred. Why is Tao Qian unhappy?

Just when he was infinitely happy, Cao Cao, under the protection of dozens of tiger guards of the bodyguard Dianwei, rode the purple electric claw yellow BMW over the suspension bridge and went straight along the official road to the gate tower. Under the warm spring sun, Cao Cao's purple and gold armor is shining, like a super general's body protective air mask.

Of course, Cao Cao, like all the soldiers, also wore a white headscarf on his purple gold helmet. In Tao Qian's view, the white headscarf on tens of thousands of people did not feel solemn and sad, but his heart was full of secret pleasure.

"Tao Mu, how are you doing with the matters entrusted to you by this Mu? Are there any progress and new clues? Cao Cao stopped a hundred meters away from the gate tower and looked up at Tao Qian and asked.

Tao Qian heard the words and looked contemptuously. He squinted at Cao Cao and said, "Cao Mu, after receiving your notice, we immediately organized people to explore the state, but nothing was found... Cao Mu, where did your men find your father's body?"

"In the mountain way of Yunlong Mountain..." Cao Cao heard the indifference of Tao Qian's tone, and an anger rose from his heart, burning his reason. The Yunlong Mountain mentioned by Cao Cao is a mountain peak located in the north of Xuzhou City. Tao Qian did not take the initiative to invite Cao Cao to the city, and has already explained his attitude towards Cao Cao in disguise.

"Oh, Cao Mu, it turns out to be like this..." Tao Qian replied casually, and then he said to Cao Cao in a debulous tone, "Cao Mu, I am deeply sad about the experience of your parents. But Cao Mu, please think calmly: Your father's mother's body was found in Yunlong Mountain, which does not mean that the first scene of the murder is near Xuzhou City. The scene of throwing the body does not explain the specific location of the first scene of the murder..."
