Cao Cao asked: "Xian son-in-law, what do you think?"

Lu Xuan said directly: "This time I fought with Lu Bu. After defeating Lu Bu, I hope that the horses captured and the captured generals of Lu Bu will be under my control."

Cao Cao frowned and said, "Xian son-in-law, this is inappropriate for you."

Lu Xuandao: "Father-in-law, according to normal circumstances, it is indeed whoever captures it and who arranges it. But, I am in a dilemma."

Cao Cao remained calm.

Are you in trouble?

I'm afraid your boy is embarrassed with his words, but he has another thought in his mind.

Cao Cao saw through Lu Xuan's tricks and said perfunctorily: "Xian son-in-law, you have just arrived in Yanzhou, and you don't know how difficult my situation is. Chen Gong has conspired with the people in Yanzhou to rebel. Now I have no soldiers and no food." Food, weapons, and no weapons, I’m in a dilemma.”

Lu Xuan blinked and asked, "Are you afraid that father-in-law is lying to me?"

Cao Cao said confidently: "Why did I lie to you? What I said is true. I just came back from Xuzhou, and only Juancheng is left. The situation is already extremely dangerous."

Lu Xuan said: "There is something wrong with what my father-in-law said. I heard that my father-in-law also has Fan County and Dong'a County. These are my father-in-law's granary and the area where he has been farming. Moreover, there is also an arsenal in Juancheng. In addition, When my father-in-law came back from Xuzhou, all the elites were there, and his strength was not affected at all, so how could he be in trouble?"

Cao Cao's cheeks twitched.

Good guy.

Lu Xuan, this kid, knew his details very clearly, and he knew him better than anyone else.

Lu Xuan arranged for people to understand the situation in Yanzhou early, and he was very cunning.

This guy cannot be underestimated.

Cao Cao's expression was as usual, without showing any trace, and he said confidently: "Xian son-in-law, my elite are still there, and I still have some food and grass. However, the whole territory of Yanzhou has been betrayed, and the little food and grass in my hand cannot last long."

Lu Xuan said: "Father-in-law, I didn't ask you to provide a large amount of food. I just ensured the food for the soldiers under my command. After all, I brought a large army to help, wouldn't my father-in-law give me this little food?"

"Of course I'll give it."

Cao Cao answered firmly.

Lu Xuan shrugged and continued: "I didn't ask my father-in-law for anything, just Lu Bu's generals and some war horses, and this is based on the premise that I can defeat Lu Bu. If I can't defeat, I won't get anything."

"I don't have cavalry generals like General Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan under my command, so I hope to bring back a few cavalry generals."

"If my father-in-law is willing to lend me General Xiahou Dun and General Xiahou Yuan for a year or two to train and train cavalry for me to encircle and suppress Lu Bu this time, I will not take any of them, and will give them all to my father-in-law."

Cao Cao shook his head and said: "That won't work. Yuan Rang and Miao are my right-hand men and they cannot leave Yanzhou."

Lu Xuan said: "My father-in-law does not support me and does not give me any benefits. This is heartbreaking. All I ask for is some cavalry. With generals and horses, I can train cavalry."

"Father-in-law, I am also a man with some family business, and I can be considered a prince."

"Wouldn't it be embarrassing if I didn't even have any cavalry? And the generals under my command can't even ride a horse. It would be a joke if word spread about it. I'm embarrassed. I said he was my father-in-law's son-in-law. When people heard this, they thought, hey, Cao Cao My son-in-law is so weak and useless? Wouldn’t it be even more embarrassing for my father-in-law?"

Cao Cao clenched his hands when he heard this.

He wanted to hit someone.

Lu Xuan's face was simply thicker than his.

It's none of my business that you, Lu Xuan, are embarrassed. I'm in Yanzhou and you're in Yangzhou. People won't say anything about me.

Cao Cao felt his temples tingling.

It wasn't that he was angry, but he felt that this guy was shameless and thick-skinned, which made him helpless.

Cao Cao still didn't let go and said: "Xian son-in-law, you are so fake that you are so miserable. Are there any of your generals who don't know how to ride a horse?"

Lu Xuan looked like he hated iron and said, "My father-in-law has never been to the south and doesn't know the situation in the south. There are water nets and ponds everywhere in the south. It's not very convenient to ride a horse when traveling. Many people don't know the situation in the south." horse riding."

"Besides, there are no pastures in the south, and there is an extreme shortage of war horses."

"In Yangzhou, there was a county magistrate. Suddenly one day, he went out to patrol the streets and met a man on a horse. The horse suddenly neighed with a loud voice. When the county magistrate heard it, he was frightened and collapsed. On the ground, peeing like shit."

Lu Xuan asked: "Father-in-law, what do you think he said?"

Cao Cao asked: "What did he say?"

Lu Xuan said helplessly: "This guy actually said that this is not a horse, it is clearly a tiger. Father-in-law, listen, because of the lack of horses in our south, there are such people. They are like barbarians. It is so disappointing." "

"Hahaha……"

Cao Cao couldn't help laughing and asked, "Xian son-in-law, you can't lie to others, right?"

Lu Xuan said with emotion: "The south is not like the north. There are frequent wars in the north, with cavalry fighting back and forth, so everyone knows about war horses. But the south is in a corner. Although there are bandits, they are fighting in small quantities and the weapons are lax. .”

Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu and others were also sizing up Lu Xuan.

Each of them looked solemn.

Lu Xuan laughed and cursed, which eased the atmosphere, brought the relationship closer, and even gained sympathy by committing misfortune. The key is that what Lu Xuan said means that you are the father-in-law, and Lu Xuan sincerely comes to help. A series of reasons add up, and it is really difficult to refuse.

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes slightly.

He thought about it for a while, and if he could win Lu Bu, it would be nothing to give to Lu Xuan.

He now needs Lu Xuan's help.

After Cao Cao thought about it clearly, he chuckled and said, "Okay, I agree to this."

Lu Xuan suddenly laughed.

Just have a promise.

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun are both generals under Lu Bu. If such people are recruited, his talent structure can be further improved.

Sure enough, what a great father-in-law.

Lu Xuan had a doubtful look on his face, glanced at everyone, and said: "Father-in-law, in front of all the elders, Mr. Wen Ruo, Mr. Gongda, Mr. Zhong Degong and others, you cannot regret it. "

Xun Yu, Xun You, Cheng Yu and others all looked at each other.

Lu Xuan, this guy, uses the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman.

Cao Cao glanced at Lu Xuan meaningfully and said with a smile: "I, Cao Cao, still want to face me. A gentleman's words are hard to follow."

Lu Xuan smiled and said: "Thank you, father-in-law. This way, my trip to the north will be complete. To be honest with my father-in-law, I came to Yanzhou this time. On the one hand, I am sure that my father-in-law can win. On the other hand, I want to make some money. Lu Bu's cavalry and generals. As for me, this is all I have in mind, and I have no other ideas."

Cao Cao picked up the wine glass again and said, "Come on, come on, keep drinking."

Lu Xuan responded again.

Cao Ang stood up, looked at Lu Xuan's expression, and said sincerely: "Brother-in-law, I'd like to toast you. Last time I left Lujiang County, you reminded me to be careful about Yuan Shu, but I was self-righteous and didn't take it to heart, so I was beaten by Yuan Shu. Ambush. Thanks to you for arranging rescue by Taishi Ci, otherwise, I would be in a desperate situation."

Lu Xuan smiled and said: "Brother, you are welcome, this is what I should do. We are all one family, could it be that I watched you being attacked by Yuan Shu? But speaking of Yuan Shu, brother, don't worry, I have avenged you. I, Zhu Kill Yuan Shu."

Cao Cao looked at Lu Xuan with deep eyes.

In front of him, Lu Xuan looked like a harmless person and a lazy scoundrel, but when he said Yuan Shu was destroyed, he was destroyed immediately.

The killing is decisive and very fierce.

Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Hong and other generals looked at Lu Xuan with even more fear. They have all dealt with Yuan Shu and know Yuan Shu's situation.

Although Yuan Shu is useless, there are still elites under Yuan Shu's command. Moreover, Shouchun City, where Yuan Shu was entrenched, was solid, easy to defend but difficult to attack, so it was not that easy to attack. It was indeed not easy for Lu Xuan to destroy Yuan Shu easily.

At this moment, no one looked down upon Lu Xuan anymore.

Even Lu Xuan said before that the military preparations in the south were lax, and everyone had forgotten about it.

Can you defeat Yuan Shu if your weapons are too weak?

Go ahead and coax the ghosts away.

Cao Ang looked at Lu Xuan with eyes full of gratitude and praised: "Brother-in-law avenged me, two words - righteousness. I am here, thank you."

Lu Xuan said modestly: "Brother, you're welcome. This is what I should do."

Cao Cao's cheeks twitched when he heard this.

His son was good at everything, capable and capable of fighting, and was recognized by both civil and military officials.

But my mind is too simple.

Not dark enough, and too thin-skinned.

Lu Xuan is a very good guy, but it's a pity that he is not his son, but just a son-in-law. Cao Cao put his thoughts away. He was also a little curious and asked: "Xian son-in-law, how did you destroy Yuan Shu? And when did you destroy him?"
