Li Dian said slowly, "Our army suffered heavy losses in the battle outside the city. Lu Bu'er should also have captured many of our soldiers and obtained a lot of supplies.
It should be easy for their troops to withdraw and establish, but it may not be that easy to bring back soldiers and supplies as soon as possible. "
After hearing this, Cao Mengde's eyes lit up and he nodded, "General Li, what you said makes sense."
Li Dian was indeed right. Cleaning the battlefield and escorting the prisoners all took time.
In such a short time, can Lu Bu really finish it all?
If not, then there must be some troops outside the city.
Thinking of this, Cao Mengde stood up and said, "I'm going to explain this to the eldest son."
Just as Cao Mengde was about to leave, Lu Qian suddenly raised his hand and said, "My lord, if Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou, is allowed to successfully obtain the city, it may not be good for us either!"
When Meng De heard these words, his heart moved, he suddenly reacted, turned his head to look at Lu Qian, and asked slowly, "You mean, you shouldn't explain this matter?"
Lu Qian shook his head, "Master, you should let nature take its course."
Cao Mengde was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "You're right, we should let nature take its course, but I'm a little impatient."
…
Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou, led his troops and horses forward. Halfway through, someone suddenly came to report.
"My lord, Lu Bu sent someone to ask for an audience."
After hearing the news, Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou, was stunned for a moment and frowned, "Why does he want to see me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Guo Tu laughed suddenly and said, "My lord, it must be Lu Bu who knew he was outmatched and wanted to send someone to ask for surrender."
Xin Ping waved his hand hurriedly, "Mr. Gongze, how is this possible? Maybe he is trying to persuade our army to retreat."
Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou, waved his hand, "No need to guess, let him come in and ask, then it will become clear."
After saying this, Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou, turned his head and looked at the soldier who was delivering the message, and said slowly.
"Let him in immediately."
"As you command!"
The soldier turned and left. Not long after, a soldier wearing Lu Bu's uniform was led in from the door. When he saw Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou, he hurriedly handed over.
"I've met the eldest son."
Seeing the visitor's humble attitude, Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou, felt extremely satisfied and nodded.
"Lu Bu asked you to come here. What do you want to say?"
Guo Tu snorted coldly, "Is Lu Bu's child scared?"
The soldier hurriedly handed over his hands and said, "Eldest Young Master, it's not that my Marquis Wen is afraid, but I heard that the Eldest Young Master is famous far and wide, and he doesn't want to be your enemy, so he sent a villain to come to see you, hoping to find a peaceful solution, so that we can There is no need to discuss the harmony between the two families."
At this moment, a voice came from outside the door, "If you want a peaceful solution, let Lu Bu'er give way to Juye."
As the words fell, Cao Mengde strode in from the door.
"If Lu Bu, son, gives way to Ju Ye, this will show his sincerity. Otherwise, it will just be rhetoric without any sincerity."
Guo Tu's expression changed, "Meng Degong, how can this be done?"
You must know that Juye was defeated by Lu Bu with hard work. How could he give in just because he said so? This is totally unreasonable!
Cao Mengde shook his head and said, "Mr. Gongze, only in this way can we show Lu Bu's sincerity. Otherwise, it will all be his trick. We absolutely cannot believe it."
