Cao Bao stood up to support Cao Hong, saying that Xu Ding would use force if he didn't leave. His generals were all hungry and thirsty.
Tao Qian was in a dilemma again, pondered for a moment, and then asked Captain Diannong who had been silent all this time.
The lieutenant of Diannong is called Chen Deng, and his father, Chen Gui, is the chancellor of Peiguo. The Chen family is one of the highest-ranking families in Xuzhou, and they are of great importance to Tao Qian.
Chen Deng looked at Cao Bao and Cao Hong, the two earnestly hoped that he would support them, after all, the aristocratic family was united.
Then Chen Deng looked at Zhao Yu, Wang Lang and the others with the same eager eyes.
The two are celebrities, and they knew that Chen Deng was a great talent, so they usually sat together and talked about Taoism, talking about the past and the present.
Taking everyone's eyes into his eyes, Chen Deng saluted Tao Qian and said, "My lord, Marquis of Weihai has a pretty good reputation, and I've never heard of him doing anything unrighteous. I'm afraid it's not true to take Xuzhou as an excuse." , but he has to guard against it, after all, he now lacks a piece of land based on land.
Of course, if we pretend maliciously, I would prefer Weihai Hou to take Langya County. "
Having said that, Chen Deng stopped.
The general idea is obvious, Xu Ding has not yet swallowed Xuzhou's intention.
Eighty to ninety percent of this time it was really an excuse.
There is another layer of threat, which is the natural hostility from his family.
Xu Ding is a family killer. He killed many families in Donglai and Beihai. Although Xu Ding has a good reputation, he is still not liked by most of the families.
Tao Qian was not an idiot either, after Chen Dengyi reminded him, he set his sights on Langya County in the north.
If Xu Ding really wants to plot Xuzhou, he should enter Langya at this time, stop in Langya County, and take the opportunity to eat it.
Langya not only borders Donglai County, but also faces the sea to the east, which is indeed the best breakthrough point for Xu Ding.
But he chose to stop the large army in Lanling City, and had no intention of entering Langya at all, which in itself was a kind of release of goodwill.
"Okay! I can promise him to go back to Weiyuan Island by boat on the East China Sea." Tao Qian gritted his teeth and agreed.
Cao Bao and Cao Hong were greatly disappointed.
Zhao Yu, Wang Lang and Mi Zhu were overjoyed, as if they had won a battle.
Then Mi Zhu went to Xu Ding to tell him the good news.
Xu Ding immediately ordered a large army to set off, and then brought a hundred riders to Tan County to visit Tao Qian.
Tao Qian received him enthusiastically, and after entering the city, he threw a big banquet, which was very suitable for the guests and the two of them chatted very speculatively.
After three rounds of drinking and five flavors of food, seeing that the atmosphere was very good, Xu Ding took the opportunity to say: "Master, what do you think of the general situation in the world today?"
When Leng Ding was asked about this, Tao Qian put down the wine glass in his hand, and the others stopped to listen quietly, not knowing what Xu Ding meant.
Tao Qian pondered and said, "What do you think, Junhou?"
Tao Qian is almost sixty now, and he is the kind of person who is mature and sophisticated.
Naturally, he will not express his opinion easily.
Xu Ding didn't care and said: "Today, the world is in chaos. Dong Zhuo hijacked the emperor, messed up the court, and by the way, the whole world. It's a pity that this time, Dong Zhuo failed to do his best, so that he escaped." Going to Guanzhong, I think the world will be more turbulent for a long time to come.
Especially after Yuan Jia's ulterior motives and vain attempts to create a private emperor, I think the land of Kanto will be full of flames of war, and the states and counties will not be able to convince the public, and it is inevitable that they will fight. "
What Xu Ding said, including Tao Qian, made the officials in Xuzhou understand that the collapse of the world was about to start, and the great man survived in name only.
The next step is the struggle for hegemony among all parties, just like the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period.
It's just that everyone still doesn't know what Xu Ding wants to do?
So Tao Qian sighed and said: "Your Majesty is right, it's just this mess, hey..."
Old fox, this is Xu Ding's evaluation of Tao Qian. Don't look at Tao Qian who looks bullying, very kind, and doesn't hesitate to do anything, but he is actually very shrewd.
Simply Xu Ding did not go around in circles, and said directly: "In troubled times, seeking safety should be a top priority, so that the king is benevolent and respectful, and his ambition is to stabilize Xuzhou, strengthen the people and enrich the state, which is really an example for people.
And I, Xu Bokang, most admire a benevolent gentleman like Shijun. Since I became a scholar, I have been doing my best to benefit the people, and I only want to maintain the place. Since you and I are dedicated to maintaining the stability of the place, if you don’t want to make an oath, It's good to have each other to take care of each other. "
Chapter 245 Xuzhou Alliance
After talking so much, Xu Ding finally revealed his true intention.
Whether it was Tao Qian, Chen Deng, or Mi Zhu and the others, they suddenly realized.
It turned out that they wanted to form an alliance and form an offensive and defensive alliance with Xuzhou.
Tao Qian's eyes flashed brightly, but he didn't answer immediately, but evaded: "Junhou, I'm really happy today, I don't want to drink too much, I feel a little dizzy, I think everyone is the same, I'm here today Come on, rest well, Tao San treats you well for me..."
Sure enough, it was the old fox. Xu Ding stood up, smiled and said thank you for the hospitality, and then everyone dispersed.
Soon Tao Qian called Chen Deng and Cao Hong's two real confidants to the study, and asked, "You have also heard the words of the Marquis of Weihai, please tell me?"
Without even thinking about it, Cao Hong said, "My lord, you must not form an alliance. Make promises to this man's wolfish ambitions, and making an alliance with him is like seeking skin from a tiger..."
Tao Qian suddenly showed warmth and anger, and stared at Cao Hong, who immediately shut up.
Normally, he can let Cao Hong mess around, turn right and wrong, and give the Cao family face.
But when it comes to the real relationship of interests, Tao Qian will not be happy if the Cao family still only cares about themselves.
Chen Deng sneered secretly, glanced at Cao Hong, then stood up and said, "My lord, Xuzhou is the place where the Fourth World War was fought, and there is almost no danger to defend, and Xu Ding has Weiyuan Island, so he will definitely plot against Donglai. Prestige, it is not difficult to win Qingzhou, so if we make friends with Xuzhou, we will have strong support, and if we refuse, we will be strong enemies."
Not to mention Tao Qian, anyway, with Chen Deng's resourcefulness, it is impossible to see Xu Ding's conspiracy now.
Xu Ding this person is too decent, and this matter is indeed a matter of mutual benefit and no harm to Xuzhou.
Although he didn't like Xu Ding, Chen Deng still agreed to form an alliance with Xu Ding in terms of interests.
Tao Qian actually knew that Xu Ding was very strong with them on Weiyuan Island.
From the generals to the soldiers, they are all capable of fighting. There is no harm in forming an alliance. On the contrary, it can let him sit back and relax in the northeast.
"My lord, from Hong's point of view, Xu Ding is an empty-handed white wolf. His alliance with the lord, on the surface, is beneficial to both parties. It really helps me in Xuzhou. In fact, Xu Ding is the one who benefits the most. Master, you think, He only has one Weiyuan Island now, if he wants to take Donglai or Qingzhou back, he must do it by force, when Donglai or Qingzhou will ask us for help, maybe this is to cut off Qingzhou’s foreign aid so that he can annex it himself.” Cao Hong analyzed calmly this time.
I have to say that what he said makes sense, it seems to be the same thing.
But if Xu Ding found out, he would definitely scoff.
Even Chen Deng at the scene scoffed.
Tao Qian thought for a while but also shook his head and said: "No matter what, it will be beneficial to Xuzhou, as long as Xuzhou is stable."
Qingzhou asked for help from Xuzhou, Tao Qian thought to himself, firstly, it is impossible, and secondly, he will not be able to help even if he asks for it. Once Xu Ding wins Donglai, will his troops from Xuzhou dare to go to Qingzhou? call back.
