Choose Liu Bei at the start, I am the only one who knows the plot of the Three Kingdoms

Just when Zhang Fei was about to lead his troops to catch up, Gu Rubing's voice suddenly sounded.

Third brother!

Gu Rubing looked at Cao Jun who started to retreat, and immediately stopped him: There may be an ambush behind, so don't pursue them deeply.

Hearing Gu Rubing's words, Zhang Fei was stunned. He looked at Cao Jun who was retreating away and snorted unwillingly, but in the end he did not choose to continue the pursuit.

Mingjin.

Gu Rubing looked at Cao Jun who was getting farther and farther away, and then glanced at Xuzhou City not far away, frowned slightly, and said: Enter Xuzhou City.

I listen to big brother.

Zhang Fei nodded, immediately raised the eight-foot-long snake spear, and shouted: Ming Jin!

Soon, the sound of ringing gold sounded. Upon hearing the sound of ringing gold, the Qingzhou army immediately stopped their pursuit, began to withdraw their troops, and continued to march towards Xuzhou City.

As for Cao Cao's army, after withdrawing their troops for a while, they saw that the Qingzhou army behind them had stopped their pursuit. Xia Houyuan, who was in charge of breaking up the rear, immediately rode up to Cao Cao and told Cao Cao: My lord, Liu Bei has not caught up.

Didn't you catch up?

Hearing this, Cao Ang looked a little ugly and said: Liu Bei is actually so cautious. If Liu Bei catches up, the military advisor will lead the ambush troops and use all their powerful crossbows to catch Liu Bei off guard!

Cao Cao also had a look of disappointment on his face, but he quickly shook his head and said, That's all, let's meet up with Gongtai first and then make plans. Now that Tao Qian has Liu Bei's help, I'm afraid it will be a tough nut to crack!

For Cao Cao, in addition to avenging his father, the most important thing to attack Xuzhou was to complete a special mission. Therefore, even if he knew that Liu Bei sent troops to assist Tao Qian, he was not willing to give up.

yes!

Xia Houyuan immediately nodded, turned his horse's head, left the central army, and continued to return to the rear to break up the rear.

…………

Seeing Gu Rubing repelling Cao's army and leading the army to the city, Tao Qian, who had been watching the situation from the city, was also overjoyed. He smiled at Mi Zhu beside him and said, As you said, Liu Xuande is really a benevolent and righteous king!

Mi Zhu also looked excited and said, With Duke Xuande's help, Xuzhou City can be saved!

Tao Qian's face flushed with excitement, he nodded, and immediately turned to the pottery merchant beside him and said: Shang'er, hurry, hurry, open the city gate to welcome us!

yes.

The pottery merchant couldn't hide the joy on his face, nodded, immediately turned around and went down to the city, and ordered people to open the city gate.

Seeing the city gate open, Gu Rubing immediately shouted: Enter the city!

Soon, Gu Rubing led the army and entered Xuzhou City under the leadership of the pottery merchant.

Thank you very much Mr. Xuande for coming to save Xuzhou. Mr. Xuande is truly a benevolent and righteous man.

Tao Qian also came to Gu Rubing with the support of several personal guards, bowed his hands to Gu Rubing, and said with great gratitude: I have asked all the princes from all over the world, but only Duke Xuande is willing to send troops to help. My gratitude cannot be expressed in words!”

Master Tao, you don't need to be polite.

Hearing this, Gu Rubing immediately raised his hands and said, I have heard a long time ago that in today's troubled times, the world is in chaos, etiquette has collapsed, and music has collapsed. Only Tao Gongzu of Xuzhou is the most generous and kind-hearted, and loves the people like a son.

When Xuzhou is in trouble today, how can Bei stand by and watch? To save Xuzhou is to save the world and the conscience of the Han Dynasty!

Hearing Gu Rubing's words, Tao Qian's face showed a hint of emotion, and he immediately raised his hands and said, Mr. Xuande is really a benevolent and righteous man!

Tao Qian seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly turned to the man next to him, who was wearing a military crown, a slender figure and about thirty years old, and said: Yuanlong, take the Xuzhou seal.

Hearing this, everyone present could not help but be stunned and couldn't help but look at each other.

Chen Deng was also startled, glanced at the pottery merchant, quickly looked back, nodded, cupped his hands and said, Yes!

After saying that, Chen Deng turned around and left in a hurry.

When Gu Rubing heard the word Yuanlong, his heart suddenly moved and he immediately cast his eyes on Chen Deng's back.

Regarding Chen Deng, Gu Rubing is naturally very thunderous!

Chen Deng is the son of Chen Gui. He comes from a family of officials. He is cheerful, calm and resourceful. When he was young, he had the ambition to help the world and the people. He was well-read and knowledgeable.

In the Three Kingdoms plot, after Tao Qian's death, Chen Deng followed Liu Bei and collaborated with Zhang Fei to govern Xuzhou.

Later, Lü Bu captured Xuzhou. Chen Deng had to assist Lü Bu because his family business was in Xuzhou. Later, he offered advice to help Cao Cao win Xuzhou. After Lü Bu was defeated, he helped Guan Yu regain Xuzhou and cut off the chariots and chests.

It was not until later that Cao Cao raised an army and marched five routes to Xuzhou. Liu Bei lost Xuzhou again and surrendered to Yuan Shao. Chen Deng had to surrender to Cao Cao and became a subject of Cao Wei.

It can be said that Chen Deng was Liu Bei's only top strategist in his early days!

Moreover, Chen Deng is already an extremely rare top strategist. Chen Deng's father, Chen Gui, is even better than Chen Deng in terms of resourcefulness!

Gu Rubing looked at Chen Deng's back. It wasn't until Chen Deng's back disappeared that he finally looked away.

Soon, Chen Deng came back again holding the Xuzhou seal, and then handed the Xuzhou seal to Tao Qian.

Tao Qian took the Xuzhou seal, walked to Gu Rubing step by step, and handed the Xuzhou seal to Gu Rubing.

What does Tao Gong mean by this?

Although he had expected it, Gu Rubing still had a look of astonishment on his face and asked.

As Mr. Xuande said, there is great chaos today and Wang Gang is weak.

Tao Qian looked at Gu Rubing and said: You are a clan member of the Han Dynasty. It is time to help the country. I am old and incompetent, which is why Xuzhou suffered this disaster.

Xuan Degong is a hero of the world, with outstanding majesty. I am willing to give in to Xuzhou with my sincerity!

After saying that, Tao Qian held the seal in his hands and made a gesture of worship.

Seeing this scene, Gu Rubing immediately stepped forward to help Tao Qian up, immediately shook his head and said, Tao Gong's words really make the disciples feel ashamed!

Tao Gong has governed Xuzhou for a long time, and the people have praised him. Everyone in the world doesn't know him, so how can he be said to be old and incompetent?

Bei Jin came to save Xuzhou just to show justice to the world. Does Tao Gong's words mean that he suspects that I have the intention to annex Xuzhou?

At this time, Tao Shang finally came to his senses and said anxiously: Yes, father, Liu Shijun is here for righteousness and has no intention of annexing Xuzhou. Besides, Liu Shijun also has Qingzhou to govern. How can you direct everything in Xuzhou?

Hearing this, Gu Rubing's eyes changed and he gave the pottery merchant a strange look.

According to the plot of the Three Kingdoms, Tao Qian's two sons were not interested in official positions and power. Why did the pottery merchant suddenly become anxious when he heard that Tao Qian wanted to move Xuzhou?

Player?

At this time, a group of advisers and generals also began to persuade: My lord, the most urgent task is to find a way to repel Cao Cao and relieve the siege of Xuzhou!

Yes, lord, this matter can be discussed later.

At this time, Gu Rubing also nodded, cupped his hands and said: Mr. Tao, what you all said is absolutely true. It is important to retreat now!

Although he also wanted Xuzhou in his heart, Gu Rubing also knew very well that it was impossible for him to accept the Xuzhou Seal now. If he directly accepted the Xuzhou Seal, his reputation would be ruined immediately.

I will immediately write a letter to Cao Cao to persuade him to reconcile. If Cao Cao doesn't comply, I will fight with him again! Gu Rubing thought for a moment and said with his hands.

After hearing what everyone said, Tao Qian finally took back the seal and handed it to Chen Deng again. He nodded and said, This is... okay.

Hearing Tao Qian's words, Tao Shang breathed a sigh of relief.

It can be said that he has been coveting this Xuzhou Mu for a long time!

Although his exclusive mission is a strange mission called avoiding disasters in troubled times, as long as he does not inherit Xuzhou, he can obtain the characteristic called avoiding disasters.

When he first saw this exclusive mission, the pottery merchant was immediately confused.

What kind of cheating mission makes me give up Xuzhou?

Can I watch the duck fly when it reaches its beak?

roll!

I, a pottery merchant, vow to fight to the end and never let it go bad!

Seeing Tao Qian take back the Xuzhou seal, Gu Rubing breathed a sigh of relief and then glanced at the pottery merchant.

The fact that the potter was a player was somewhat beyond Gu Rubing's expectations.

Originally, Gu Rubing thought that if he came to Xuzhou, he would probably get a piece of Xuzhou for nothing, but now it seems that there may be changes in this matter.

In history, the main reason why Tao Qian gave Xuzhou to Liu Bei was actually because Tao Qian's two sons, Tao Shang and Tao Ying, did not want to be officials.

Otherwise, even if Xuzhou was the place of the Fourth War, no matter how dilapidated it was due to the war, Liu Bei would not be able to miss it.

Originally, Gu Rubing was still hesitating whether he should capture Xuzhou like in the original plot if Tao Qian still gave in to Xuzhou.

After all, his foundation in Xuzhou is too shallow. Once he captures Xuzhou, he will definitely be severely suppressed by the various noble families in Xuzhou.

Moreover, the three counties and three kingdoms in Xuzhou were severely separatist. Langya was separatist by Zang Ba, and Xiapi Guangling was controlled by Zuo Rong. Both of them obeyed the instructions but not the propaganda. Tao Qian actually controlled only Pengcheng, Peiguo and Donghai.

Of course, what's more important is that if you take Xuzhou yourself, you will have to face Yuan Shao in the north, Sun Jian and Yuan Shu in the south, and Cao Cao in the west. It will be difficult to take care of both ends.

At first, Gu Rubing's idea was that if he could capture Xuzhou, he would just go with the flow and let the situation unfold later. But now that the pottery merchant was a variable, Gu Rubing suddenly changed his mind.

Since the pottery merchant wants to be the shepherd of Xuzhou, let him be the shepherd of Xuzhou. Anyway, if he really wants to be himself, he probably won't be able to compete.

Moreover, the Taoshang leader Xuzhou Mu can also share the pressure from Cao Cao and Yuan Shu. He can form an alliance with Xuzhou, advance south, capture Taishan County, and then look to the north.

Compared to Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, in fact, Gu Rubing's real biggest concern now is Zang Ba.

Langya and Taishan occupied by Zang Ba happened to be the natural danger to the south of Qingzhou. If Zang Ba was not dealt with, Qi and Jinan would be a buffet for the Taishan thieves!

“Mr.

Tao Qian looked at Gu Rubing and said again: I will have a small banquet tonight to entertain Mr. Xuande.

In that case, thank you very much Mr. Tao.

Gu Rubing retracted his thoughts, took a deep look at the pottery merchant, and then immediately raised his hands and said.

Xuzhou probably won’t be given over to the protagonist, but this is not deliberately to suppress the protagonist. I won’t spoil the story later on.
