Chapter 454 Anxious Tao Qian Inside and Outside

Cao Cao retreated, and then the whole city of Xiapi was in a strange state.

Everyone is guessing whether Zhang Yu will share Xuzhou equally with Cao Cao.

If Zhang Yu wants to divide Xuzhou equally with Cao Cao, then Xuzhou will be gone in an instant.

With Cao Cao's hundreds of thousands of troops outside and Zhang Yu's powerful army inside, Xuzhou could not resist the combination of the two. Even as long as Zhang Yu didn't help Xuzhou defend the city, Xuzhou might be destroyed by Cao Cao.

The officials in Xuzhou panicked, and Tao Qian was the first to bear the brunt.

When Tao Qian received the news, he almost fainted again on the spot.

"I didn't expect such a big bitter fruit to be brewed by the mistake at the beginning." Tao Qian said with a sigh.

But things have happened, and he can only solve them.

Tao Qian immediately summoned Chen Gui, Cao Bao and others, but did not call Mi Zhu and Mi Fang.

Obviously, Tao Qian didn't want Mi Zhu to get involved.

"Everyone, Xuzhou is in a precarious state and may collapse in an instant. What can you do?" Tao Qian said.

The atmosphere in the hall was heavy, and more than a dozen officials sat there silently.

Everyone knows what they are facing now.

After a while, Chen Guicai said: "Lord Zhou Mu, Zhang Yu is already a big hidden danger in the city, why not send him away."

Tao Qian frowned, if he could be sent away, he would definitely send him away now without hesitation.

But it’s easier to invite God than to send God away. If Zhang Yu doesn’t leave, Tao Qian angered him, and when the time comes to cooperate with Cao Cao, Xuzhou will be over immediately.

Tao Qian was distressed and didn't know what to do.

"Oh." Tao Qian sighed and said nothing.

At this time, Cao Bao came out and said, "My lord, there is a large army in our city. Let your guard down when Zhang Yu's bridal chamber arrives. We will surround them and destroy them in one fell swoop."

Cao Bao hated Zhang Yu very much. When Cao Bao led an army and was attacked by Zhang Yu, everyone was arrested by Zhang Yu. It was too embarrassing.

Now Zhang Yu is threatening the whole of Xuzhou.

No one responded to Cao Bao, and everyone knew that this method was not feasible.

The main reason is that Gao Shun's performance was too amazing, and now Gao Shun has 50,000 soldiers in his hands.

The meeting lasted more than half an hour, and Zhang Yu's wedding was in the evening, so time was tight, and Tao Qian became a little anxious.

After another half an hour, no solution was discussed.

Tao Qian was unwell and asked everyone to go back first.

Not long after, Chen Gui came to see him again.

Tao Qian was puzzled, so he invited Chen Gui in again.

"Chen Gui, you're back again, but what's your plan?" Tao Qian said.

Chen Gui nodded and said, "Just now there were so many people, it was really inconvenient. I hope Master Zhou will forgive me."

Tao Qian nodded. In fact, it was true. No wonder no one dared to speak.

Zhang Yu is a lunatic, at least they think so, so they dare not talk nonsense. If Zhang Yu knows, Zhang Yu's soldiers and horses may soon surround their home.

Therefore, after Tao Qian asked for a long time, no one dared to answer, and only Cao Bao, who had no brains, dared to speak out.

Although Chen Gui spoke, he obviously came up with an unfeasible idea.

Chen Gui said to Tao Qian: "Master Zhou Mu, you must not provoke Zhang Yu at this time. To stimulate Zhang Yu will only push him to the opposite side. Why don't we retreat and try it out first."

"How to test?" Tao Qian asked eagerly.

"Give Xuzhou to him and see his reaction." Chen Gui said.

Tao Qian was startled, he had already thought about giving up Xuzhou, but he must be cautious, not everyone can take over.

Tao Qian also considered giving Xuzhou to Zhang Yu, but Tao Qian didn't like Zhang Yu's disposition, plus Zhang Yu offended so many people and did things without any scruples, so he was excluded.

Tao Qian thought for a while and said, "What if Zhang Yu accepts or not?"

"Accept, it means that he has ambitions for Xuzhou. Let's stabilize him first and let him fight with Cao Cao, or we will drive him out of Xuzhou after Cao Cao retreats, or even design to get rid of him. It is best if he has no intention of Xuzhou ,

Promise him more benefits, and send him away after Cao Cao retreats. "Chen Gui said.

After Tao Qian heard this, he felt hesitant, and his face became much more relaxed.

"Okay, but how should we deal with Mi Zhu? The influence of the Mi family in Xuzhou cannot be underestimated. If it is not handled properly, it is easy to cause major conflicts." Tao Qian said again.

"It's okay, Mi Zhu will win over Zhang Yu only for the benefit of the family, he will never harm you, Mr. State Shepherd, at least as long as you are in power, he will never dare to do anything." Chen Gui said.

The reason is very simple, Tao Qian is Mi Zhu's old master, and he owes him a great favor. It was Tao Qian who made Mi Zhu go from a merchant to a high-ranking official.

If you don't miss the old master, this era will definitely be cast aside, and Mi Zhu is a smart person and he will never do this.

In fact, Tao Qian also knew that he couldn't last long, and Mi Zhu would definitely be able to wait.

"Okay, Zhang Yu is getting married tonight, and I will take all the officials from Xuzhou to congratulate him." Tao Qian made a decision, knowing that it was time to compromise.

After discussing with Chen Gui, Tao Qian went to prepare.

Tao Qian quickly notified the important officials in Xuzhou, and at the same time notified Mi Zhu, so that Mi Zhu was ready to receive him.

Tao Qian's sudden change shocked the entire Xuzhou senior management.

No one knew what Tao Qian was going to do.

Even Mi Zhu was surprised and delighted when he received the news. He would naturally send invitations to all the officials, but he didn't expect them all to come, or send unimportant people to come.

But this time Tao Qian will bring all the officials together, which makes Mi Zhu take it seriously.

But when Zhang Yu received the news, it was a different scene.

"It seems that Cao Cao's sowing dissension still has an effect. Old Tao Qian, you'd better not play any tricks, otherwise my 50,000 army is not something you can bear."

Zhang Yu quickly understood that Tao Qian's attention to him at this time must have something to do with Cao Cao's sowing dissension in the morning.

But Zhang Yu is not afraid, he has been very careful these two days, with many guards around him, he will not go out easily.

My own food is all food brought by myself, and I don't let the people of Mi's family serve me.

In addition, Dian Wei was also transferred to his side.

This place is different from other places, Xuzhou is the lair of others.

So careful, as long as Tao Qian has no ability to take him down in an instant and has enough time to react, Zhang Yu will not be afraid of him.

Zhang Yu ordered Gao Shun to prepare for the battle in secret.

After some preparations, in the evening, Zhang Yu and Mrs. Mi's wedding kicked off.

At Zhang Yu's request, all the servants in the Mi family were replaced by Zhang Yu's own soldiers, especially everyone around Zhang Yu.

In other people's territory, you have to be so careful.

After the wedding started, Zhang Yu didn't greet the guests at the door, but Mi Zhu's people did.

Another important piece of information is that Mi Fang did not attend the wedding, but stayed in the barracks.

The message is obvious, no one should try to mess around, otherwise Mi Fang and Zhang Yu's troops will overthrow Xuzhou, and it will be a matter of minutes.
