Chapter 40 Zhang Kai: The Cao Family Is so Rich!

Not long after Xi Yu and Dian Wei left, Cao Cao became increasingly panicked.

After probably slowing down for a while, he personally ordered three thousand tiger tigers and led the tiger tigers directly to Taishan County, intending to meet them along the way.

at the same time.

After coming out of Juancheng, Xi Yu looked at Dian Wei.

"Awei, you follow behind, I'll go first!"

Dian Wei could only ride an ordinary war horse. After leaving the south gate, Xi Yu realized that the opponent's speed could not keep up with him.

We must ensure that the old lady is safe and sound during this trip, and we cannot waste time on the road.

Calculating the time since Cao Cao received the letter, Cao Song and his party may have arrived in Xuzhou.

Xi Yu knew that once Cao Song met Tao Qian's men, it would be too late.

Dian Wei nodded on the side.

When he came out, he knew that Xi Yu planned to take him to save people. Naturally, he did not dare to delay this effort because of himself.

"Sir, go ahead and I'll be right back!"

Dian Wei pinched the horse's belly, and the horse beneath him had begun to lose weight.

The former didn't say much, tied the tiger-headed golden gun behind his back, and Jueying's speed increased in an instant.

…

Xuzhou, overseas.

After the letter was sent, Cao Song led a large family and set off directly from Langya.

Soon after, the Cao family arrived at the border of Xuzhou.

During this trip, the convoy moved slowly like a long snake.

Surrounding the team were several guards hired by Cao Song.

At this moment, in the leader's luxurious carriage, the curtain on the side was slowly lifted.

"De'er, where are you now?"

The voice came from the car window. After all, the former Sangong was getting older, but there was still a hint of majesty in the voice.

Cao Song was looking out of the car window with squinted eyes. His hair was tied up in a bun at the top, and some of his long, slightly gray hair fell from both sides.

He was leaning against the window. As soon as the sound came out, a young man on horseback not far from the car window quickly drove his horse to the car window.

"Father, we have arrived in Xuzhou!"

The speaker was Cao De, the youngest son of Cao Song and the younger brother of Cao Cao. He was only in his early twenties.

“We’ve arrived in Xuzhou!”

Cao Song in the window nodded, leaning against the window with a smile on his lips.

Since Cao Cao started to raise troops, he gave his full support to his son.

After Cao Cao attacked Dong, he took his whole family to avoid trouble in Langya. Until now, in just a few years.

Before long, the boy who had been rather naughty when he was young had gained a huge reputation in the blink of an eye.

Now, Cao Cao has changed his identity and has become the shepherd of Yanzhou.

He was even commended by the emperor.

With such an achievement, Cao Song was naturally extremely satisfied.

After Cao Cao established his foothold in Yanzhou, he began to make arrangements to move his family to Yanzhou. Now it was time to rely on his son.

It only took a few days to reach Yanzhou from Xuzhou.

Soon, soon!

"Father, I think the eldest brother will have received our letter by now, and he will send someone to pick us up, right?"

Cao De glanced left and right.

After arriving in Xuzhou, he couldn't help but feel some inexplicable worries.

Along the way, they were flying the banner of the Cao family, and they avoided the bandits and others they encountered on the way.

However, the Cao family's motorcade this time was too long. In such a hurry, it would probably take several days to get to Yanzhou.

But now, they had left Langya and were in the unfamiliar territory of Xuzhou, which made him feel a little worried.

"What are you afraid of? Your brother is now the shepherd of Yanzhou. The princes in the world naturally want to give your brother face."

"Even Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian should have sent someone to escort us when he learned that we were passing by. Just wait, Tao Qian's people will come soon!"

Cao Song said with confidence. As soon as he said these words, the corner of Cao De's mouth twitched.

"But, I heard that Tao Qian attacked my eldest brother in the previous episode. I'm worried!"

"Don't worry, I know that old guy Tao Qian, he doesn't dare!"

…

Xuzhou, Prefecture Mufu!

As a shepherd in Xuzhou, Tao Qian received the news as soon as Cao Song and his party were about to enter the country.

At present, Yanzhou is eyeing Xuzhou and learns that Cao Song has passed through.

The subordinates on the side directly told him to hug Cao Song and his party.

To blackmail Cao Cao.

Although Tao Qian was a little moved, once such a thing was done, he and Cao Cao would definitely be incompatible.

When Tao Qian was hesitating whether to detain Cao Song, someone next to him suddenly spoke.

"My lord, no!"

"I am waiting now to send Cao Cao's father out of Xuzhou safely!"

"If something happens to his father in Xuzhou, we in Xuzhou will lose our justice. At that time, Cao Cao will attack in anger. What should I do in Xuzhou?"

Now that Cao Cao is entrenched in Yanzhou, he has gathered more than 300,000 Yellow Turban soldiers. The momentum is so huge that even Yuan Shu has hit a snag.

How could Xuzhou be Cao Cao's opponent?

As soon as the counselor below opened his mouth, Tao Qian reacted abruptly.

right!

If something happened to Cao Song in Xuzhou, it would not be equivalent to handing Cao Cao a knife against Xuzhou.

I sent it myself.

No, we must not let anything happen to Cao Song!

"Come here, look where Mr. Cao is and send someone to lead the troops to escort him!"

…

After Tao Qian gave the order, his subordinate Zhang Kai immediately took the order and left.

Soon after, Zhang Kai led three thousand light cavalry to the road that Cao Song and his party must pass and waited.

The next day, it was just dawn!

Zhang Kai had been waiting for the Cao family's motorcade all night, and was finally spotted by scouts.

Zhang Kai originally planned to escort Cao Song across the border honestly, but when he saw the Cao family's motorcade from a distance, he was stunned.

The convoy in the distance looked like a long snake from the moment it appeared.

There seems to be no head left.

The captain who saw this scene couldn't help but gasped: "General, this Cao family is too rich!"

"How much money has been raised? I'm afraid it can support an army of 100,000 people!"

The captain's words made Zhang Kai feel a little confused.

Yes, this money can probably feed an army of 100,000 people!

If he had so much money, why would he commit himself to Tao Qian?

Today, Tao Qian is old and dim, and his sons are all mediocre. The Han Dynasty is now weak, and the world is changing.

Following Tao Qian, what's the way out?

If he intercepts the property of this caravan and stands alone on the mountain, or defectes to other princes, I think he can get ahead.

When the idea came to his mind, Zhang Kai couldn't stop his thoughts.

He looked at the longing in the eyes of the captain next to him, and the thoughts in his heart began to become more and more heated.

"Let's go meet Old Mrs. Cao!"
