Outside Xiangping City, Cao Zhang's military camp is in command.
Time passed little by little, and the training of soldiers progressed very quickly.
Although the overall combat power is not as exaggerated as doubling, it is still a visible improvement to the naked eye.
Cao Zhang deliberately thought that if he personally led the army, no troops in the entire Liaodong could compete with him.
In this case, by cooperating with Cao Pi to seize power in the future, the chance of success will be significantly increased!
However, it wasn't entirely smooth.
Cao Zhi did not go too smoothly in recruiting people.
Of the 3,000-strong team, only a hundred people have expressed their submission.
The rest either pretended not to know or just refuted it with words.
This was a case where Cao Zhi was cautious in his words and actions and did not make it particularly obvious.
Once there is rebellion, there may be a risk of mutiny.
Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi were sitting in the commander's tent, worrying about this matter.
"Third brother, the eldest brother has captured Wang Lie and has an army of 10,000. When he comes back one day and sees that we can't even control 3,000 men, won't we be laughed at by eldest brother?"
Cao Zhi was also very depressed.
"Second brother, forget the joke, I'm afraid I'll disappoint the eldest brother!"
"In order to revive the Wei Dynasty, my eldest brother worked hard to capture Wang Lie, but our brothers and the three thousand men under his command were helpless. It is really embarrassing!"
While the two were discussing and becoming increasingly agitated, a soldier made a report in the account.
"General Qi, Lord Zhou Mu has summoned you."
Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi looked at each other and saw confusion.
Since leaving the city for training, they have almost lost touch with the city.
Gongsun Kang didn't look for them, and they didn't look for Gongsun Kang either.
There is absolutely no need for the two sides to connect.
The only thing we need to rely on is food and grass from Xiangping City, which is delivered on time and on time, and has never been in arrears.
Therefore, this call is quite intriguing.
Therefore, Cao Zhang made a decision.
"Third brother, you take him at the military camp while I go to see Zhou Mu."
Cao Zhi stopped Cao Zhang and shook his head.
"No, second brother, you stay here while I go to Xiangping Chengzhou Mufu."
Seeing the two arguing with each other, the soldier quickly spoke.
"Two generals, stop arguing. Lord Zhou Mu wants you to go together."
"this..."
"Hold on!"
Cao Zhi gave an excuse and took Cao Zhang back to the commander's tent.
"Second brother, I don't know what happened to Zhou Mu, but he wants me and him to go together!"
Cao Zhang narrowed his eyes slightly.
"If that doesn't work, just lead the troops and see what he wants to do!"
"No!"
Cao Zhi quickly stopped him.
"Second brother, soldiers have no homeland at all. Once something unexpected happens, they will definitely turn their backs."
"It's better to go directly than to fall into someone's trap."
"I didn't expect Gongsun Kang to be like this."
Cao Zhang thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
"Forget it! If Gongsun Kang dares to act recklessly, I will kill him first!"
The two men tidied up a bit and then followed the messenger to the city.
In the Prefectural Mufu Mansion, Gongsun Kang received the news in advance.
"Did Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi lead their troops? How many people came?"
"Lord Zhou Mu, there are only two of them, and they don't have any soldiers."
Gongsun Kang's eyes became more relaxed and he sneered.
"They both know each other!"
"If you dare to come alone, the Honshu Mu will deal with them today!"
The soldier stepped forward and handed over his report.
"Lord Zhou Mu, General Wang means not to touch these two people for the time being, and let them be used by us first."
"If it doesn't work anymore, it's not too late to deal with it!"
"Nonsense, the Honshu pastor still needs you to teach me!"
Gongsun Kang glared at the soldier and waved his hand impatiently.
"Hurry up and don't let anything go wrong soon."
The soldier nodded repeatedly.
"Don't worry, Lord Zhou Mu, I will never let you down!"
"Go ahead."
After the soldiers left, Gongsun Kang changed his expression. He couldn't let Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi see any flaws.
After waiting for a short time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.
There were already instructions outside the door, so just go in.
Gongsun Kang put on a smiling face and immediately greeted him.
"Two Mr. Cao, are you here so soon?"
"Meet Gongsun Zhoumu."
Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi were very polite and bowed down after entering the door.
In fact, they don't have to do this at all, but Cao Zhi analyzed that the most important thing is to stabilize Gongsun Kang as much as possible at the moment.
It's okay to lower your head a little and be a little humble.
"Oh my god, how can I, the shepherd of this state, receive such a great gift from Mr. Cao?"
Gongsun Kang said this, but he waited for Er Cao to finish the ceremony before reaching out to support him.
It's hypocritical to the extreme.
"You two Mr. Cao, please get up quickly. There is no need to be so polite with Benzhou Mu."
The two straightened up, and Cao Zhang chose to remain silent.
It had been decided when he arrived that Cao Zhi would start the conversation.
"I wonder why Gongsun Zhoumu called us two?"
"Currently, the military training is in a critical stage and has begun to bear fruit. There is no need to delay for a moment!"
"understand!"
Gongsun Kang echoed and approved.
"The Honshu Mu will not delay the two young masters for too long. I invite you to come because I have something to tell you!"
Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi said nothing more, quietly waiting for Gongsun Kang's next words.
Gongsun Kang led the two of them inside and pointed to the seats on both sides.
"Now that you're here, why don't you stay here for a while?"
"Please sit down!"
"Thank you!"
There was no refusal, and everyone sat down separately.
Gongsun Kang did not ramble and went straight to the point.
"Honzhou Mu has received news from the front. Master Cao Pi said that he has a plan to defeat the enemy, which may be implemented in the near future!"
"Honzhou Mu still doesn't know the specific situation, but even if he has a plan, it will be extremely difficult to defeat the Han army!"
"In order to ensure victory, Honshu Mu specially called for two young masters to inquire about training soldiers. When can we go to the battlefield to fight? Please give us an approximate time!"
