Chapter 130: Sending Women Before Sending Troops
"Your Majesty, I have something to say!"
Seeing the guards beside him coming to capture him, Xu Si hurriedly said, "Your Majesty will not save Xia Pi, you may lose your lips and teeth. Once Xia Pi City is broken, it will not be beneficial to Your Majesty!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Shu waved his hand, and the guards who wanted to catch people temporarily retreated aside.
Xu Si knew that Yuan Shu was giving him a chance to show his feelings, so he quickly said: "A few days ago, the general was an enemy of His Majesty, which was mistaken by Cao Cao's treacherous plan. Now that the general has woken up, he has realized his mistake."
"Cao Cao besieged Xia Pi and was an enemy of the general. He was also an enemy of Your Majesty, so he was our common enemy. If Cao Cao captured Xia Pi, he would continue to attack Your Majesty without any worries. Moreover, Your Majesty also had the worries of the Sun family in Jiangdong, and it would be difficult to deal with Cao Cao without allies."
"Working with us will benefit both ours. If we join forces, Cao Cao can retreat."
After saying that, Xu Si bowed and waited for Yuan Shu's response.
Yuan Shu frowned slightly. After a long time, he said, "I have a marriage contract with Fengxian, so I should send troops to support me, but..."
He paused for a moment and said, "If I want to support Fengxian, the previous engagement must continue to be fulfilled."
Thinking of Lu Bu's courage, Yuan Shu also wanted to take him under his command and become his minion to conquer the world.
"What Your Majesty said is that I will go back and tell the general that he will continue to fulfill his engagement and ask His Majesty to send troops to rescue Xia Pi first." Xu Si said respectfully again.
"No, Fengxian has no faith, I am very worried."
Yuan Shu stared at Xu Si and said lightly: "You can send your daughter first, and then send troops. You go!"
Xu Si could not decide whether to marry a daughter, but now it is not a failure. As for the follow-up, it depends on whether Lu Bu is willing.
Thinking of this, Xu Si bowed respectfully: "I will leave first!"
Yuan Shu was quite satisfied with the envoy sent by Lu Bu to surrender in front of him, so he did not continue to make things difficult for Xu Si.
After leaving the palace in Shouchun, Xu Si wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. This time he almost died. Fortunately, he was able to convince Yuan Shu.
Then, he did not dare to delay and went back to Xia Pi as soon as possible.
In the blink of an eye, several more days passed, and Xu Si and hundreds of people returned to Xia Pi successfully.
He secretly thanked that there was no obstruction by Cao's army this time, so he immediately went to find Lu Bu and briefly said Yuan Shu's conditions.
When Lu Bu heard the condition of sending his daughter to her first, he frowned slightly, as if he was reluctant to let it go.
"General, you can agree to Yuan Shu's conditions first." Chen Gongxian said.
Xu Shi suddenly thought of something and said, "Although I was not blocked when I came back, Cao Jun must have learned that I was back, and it would be difficult to go out again."
Finally, Lu Bu nodded and said, "I would like to send my son to Shouchun first, but how should I send it out?"
As soon as these words were said, they all fell into deep thought, and Cao's army was eyeing him outside.
After a moment of silence, Chen Gong said first: "Prepare three thousand troops and horses, arrange a small cart, and the general personally sends it to two hundred miles away, and then hand it over to General Zhang and General Gao to Shouchun. With the courage of the general, no one can stop him."
Lu Bu nodded with satisfaction when he heard this sentence. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "Just arrange it like this!"
"However, Cao Cao was extremely treacherous and asked General Hao to bring 6,000 people out of the city, and attacked the east and west like that night, distracting Cao's army from the spotlight. I will take people out in person."
After hearing the order, Chen Gong and others went down to make arrangements immediately.
The survival of Xia Pi depends on whether this cooperation can be successful.

"General!"
Wen Pin got new news and hurried to Chen Yang and said, "The person who left Xia Pi that night is back today."
"After waiting for them for so many days, I finally came back. It's not easy!"
Chen Yang was practicing swordsmanship. He put away his iron sword and said, "Continue to monitor, and they will take action as soon as tonight."
"yes!"
After Wen Pin finished speaking, he hurriedly left.
"Liu Xuande, I have to let you be cannon fodder again tonight, alas!"
Chen Yang smiled and said, "What a great cannon fodder, I can't bear to kill you."
After saying that, Chen Yang slowly went to find Liu Bei.
Just as Chen Yang approached Liu Bei's camp, he saw Mrs. Gan, who was washing clothes nearby.
In this military camp, there are all thick and stinky men. They don’t wash clothes so carefully, especially for women. Gan Qian can only do it herself.
Poor Liu Xuande escaped, but he couldn't even take a maid with him. Not losing Mrs. Gan was already the greatest kindness he was to Mrs. Gan.
"General, General!"
Seeing Chen Yang coming suddenly, Gan Qian hurriedly got up and lowered her head and said.
"You don't have to be polite, can Xuande be there?" Chen Yang asked.
He couldn't help but remember that Gan Qian appeared sneakily near his camp that day. Then Chen Yang arranged for someone to investigate her, but he couldn't find anything. He was a little curious about her.
But I was just curious. Chen Yang did not have the same thoughts as Lao Cao.
"The master is in the tent." Mrs. Gan said with his head down.
Chen Yang glanced at the clothes in the basin and smiled and said, "When I break Xia Pi, I will definitely find a few maids to come back to help my wife work."
After saying that, Chen Yang laughed and went to Liu Bei to discuss how to deal with Lu Bu tonight.
Looking at Chen Yang's back, Mrs. Gan felt thoughtful.
"Master, this woman is a bit difficult." Wang Yue said suddenly.
"Oh? Why isn't it simple?" Chen Yang asked curiously.
"I saw a resentful murderous intent in her eyes, but she covered it up very well." Wang Yue whispered.
Killing intention?
Where did a woman get murderous intention? Chen Yang asked: "Does she want to kill me?"
Wang Yue thought for a moment and shook his head and said, "No, she will only be nervous in front of the master, not targeting the master."
Chen Yang thought for a long time and said, "But I can't find out about her. Forget it, let's ignore her for now. Let's go find Liu Bei."
While speaking, the man had already walked to Liu Bei's tent. Chen Yang called softly, and he could only go in with Liu Bei's consent.
"Zi'an, what's wrong with coming today?" Liu Bei said pretending to be polite.
"I have an important military intelligence."
Chen Yang said straight to the point: "I have found out that I asked Lu Bu's people to escape from the siege that night. He had already gone to Shouchun to ask for help from Yuan Shu and got Yuan Shu's promise. But the only condition was that Lu Bu would send his daughter to Shouchun first, so that Yuan Shu would be willing to send troops."
Liu Bei's eyes lit up and then asked, "So, they will take action tonight? We want to destroy their cooperation again?"
Chen Yang nodded solemnly and said, "That's right, Xuande, you know everything about Lu Bu. You need your assistance tonight. Once they join forces, we will be in danger."
Chen Yang said so the last time, Liu Bei and the others suffered heavy losses in the end.
This time Chen Yang said this again, which made Liu Bei hesitate for a long time.
"Could it be that Xuande didn't want to break Xia Pi and seek revenge on Lu Bu?" Chen Yang asked deliberately.
"Of course not, I'll leave it to us tonight." Liu Bei nodded.
At the same time, he sighed in his heart, and there was no reason for him to refuse.
