Xin Ping took a step forward and asked tentatively, "Is Marquis Wen really willing to give up Juye?"
The middle-aged man hurriedly handed over his hand and said, "It's absolutely true."
Cao Mengde suddenly sneered, "Mr. Zhongzhi, don't listen to his nonsense, I'm afraid this is just a stop-gap measure on his part. If we give Lu Bu children food, even if he agrees, but when we give it away, he has the final say.
If we don't let him do it then, wouldn't we have wasted food and time in vain, and it would have benefited Lu Bu's son. "
The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "Mr. Meng De, these words are wrong. As long as there is enough food, Marquis Wen can withdraw from Juye immediately. There will be no delay and influence on the eldest son's affairs."
Xin Ping's eyes lit up, "You mean, as long as we provide enough food, Marquis Wen can withdraw immediately?"
The middle-aged man nodded, "That's true. As long as there is enough food for our army to retreat, Marquis Wen can immediately retreat from Juye."
Cao Mengde snorted coldly, "This is just Lu Bu's clever words. He wants food first. After he gets the food, even if he doesn't withdraw, what can we do?"
The middle-aged man waved his hand, "If the eldest princess doesn't believe it, you can put the food outside the city on the way our army retreats.
As long as our army detects that there is no danger, we can immediately withdraw from Juye and give the city to the eldest son. "
As soon as these words came out, even Cao Mengde was speechless at the moment.
The food was outside the city, and Lu Bu could still withdraw his troops from Juye. This was enough to show that his withdrawal from the city this time was definitely not a lie, but a sincere act.
Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou, felt relieved after hearing this and couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh, "Haha, that's great."
Cao Mengde's expression changed, "My eldest son, Lu Bu's mistress is very cunning, so don't be fooled."
Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou, turned to look at Cao Mengde and asked slowly, "Meng Degong, in your opinion, what is wrong with Lu Bu doing this?"
"this……?"
Cao Mengde was stunned and thought about it carefully, but for a while he couldn't say anything to refute.
Even in his heart, he vaguely felt that this time, Lu Bu might really want to withdraw his troops and give up Juye to the eldest son of Jizhou, Yuan Tan.
impossible!
Cao Mengde knew in his heart that Lu Bu could never be so generous, but he couldn't tell what the plan was this time.
Guo Tu asked slowly, "If we send the food there, will Lu Bu really be willing to withdraw from Juye?"
The middle-aged man hurriedly handed over his hand and said, "Mr. Gongze, you are absolutely telling the truth. And if you send food outside the city, even if Marquis Wen doesn't want to let it go, there's probably nothing you can do about it."
Hearing this, Guo Tu felt reassured and nodded, then turned to the eldest son of Jizhou, Yuan Tan, cupped his hands and said with a smile.
"My eldest son, it seems that Lu Bu is sincere this time."
Cao Mengde said hurriedly, "It's impossible. There must be a conspiracy in this. You must not trust Lu Bu'er easily, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."
Guo Tu turned to look at Cao Mengde and asked slowly, "In that case, where does Meng Deggong think Lu Bu's plan lies?"
"this……?"
Cao Mengde was stunned again, but he couldn't answer. If he could think of it, he would have said it long ago, so why did he wait until now.
"No, there must be something wrong with this."
