Cao Mengde sighed, "In this case, what should we do about this matter?"
Lu Qian said slowly, "Lord, we should tell Lu Bu all the ins and outs of this matter. I think he should know what to do?"
Li Dian nodded, "That's true. As long as Lu Bu knows about Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou, he will definitely find a way."
Le Jin suddenly said, "If we deliver the message, what will happen to the eldest son of Jizhou, Yuan Tan?"
At this point, Le Jin's tone paused, but then, he continued without waiting for anyone to answer his words.
"What I'm worried about is, what should I do if Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou, discovers that we are delivering the letter and immediately takes action against us after delivering it?"
Hearing this, Cao Mengde was surprised, "General Le, do you think the eldest son of Jizhou, Yuan Tan, will take action immediately?"
Le Jin shook his head, "Although I'm not sure, we have to take precautions. If something happens, we have a plan to deal with it."
Li Dian frowned and said, "We are now in the military camp of the eldest son of Jizhou, Yuan Tan. If he wants to take action, we will not be able to resist him no matter what."
Everyone couldn't help being surprised when they heard this.
"Yes, it would be terrible if the eldest son of Jizhou, Yuan Tan, really takes action."
"Find a solution quickly, otherwise it will be too late."
"How about we get out of here?"
Cao Mengde became even more agitated as he listened to everyone's discussion, "Everyone, you still have to find a way to deal with it."
Le Jin suddenly said, "Master, actually there is a way now."
Cao Mengde's eyes lit up and he asked hurriedly, "General Le, what can you do?"
Le Jin cupped his hands and said slowly, "Since Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou, doubts the lord, the only way is to surrender to him."
"What?"
Hearing these words, Cao Mengde was immediately surprised, "General Le, you want me to defect to Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou?"
At this point, Cao Mengde's tone paused, but then, without waiting for Le Jin to answer his words, he suddenly sneered.
"Benchu and I are friends, and now I am asked to seek refuge with Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou. This is simply a big joke. It is absolutely impossible."
Cao Hong on the side suddenly became furious, "How dare you let my lord defect to Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou?"
Le Jin hurriedly handed over his hand, "My lord, this is all a temporary measure. As long as we can deceive Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou, he will withdraw from Yanzhou when he is defeated. Doesn't my lord still want to go with us?"
Hearing this, Cao Mengde's eyes lit up, "General Le, are you saying that you are pretending to surrender?"
Le Jin nodded, "Yes, my lord is so talented and powerful, how can he be compared to the eldest son of Jizhou, Yuan Tan? Now it's just a stopgap measure."
Lu Qian also reacted and said with a smile, "As long as we pretend to surrender, Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou, will naturally not be able to deal with us. In this way, we will be safe."
Le Jin nodded, "That's right, the key now is the period before the war. As long as we get through it and Lu Bu defeats Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou, we will naturally be safe."
】
Cao Mengde already understood Le Jin's thoughts, but he was still embarrassed to ask him to join Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Jizhou. After all, he was the same generation as Yuan Shao of Jizhou and were friends.
Nowadays, it is a bit of a loss of face to seek refuge with a junior.
