Guan Yu did not choose to cooperate, but Xu Shu did not give up easily.
He interrogated many prisoners overnight, all of whom were small figures with no status in the Allied forces, and obtained very little information.
Just when Xu Shu was about to give up, the one person he thought of was Cao Bao.
"Cao Bao has poor martial arts skills and a special status. He is not imprisoned in a prison, but in a secluded mansion.
"Liu Dingfang wants to let me out?" Cao Bao said arrogantly when he saw Xu Shu.
???????????????????????????????????????????????OUTOUT out of being captured, he was still very worried. His current treatment made him feel happy. Where could he be a prisoner? It is simply more enjoyable than in Xuzhou.
Except for the lack of freedom, this place is simply paradise.
Liu Ke just dismissed Cao Bao casually, but how dare the people under him neglect him?
Afraid of settling scores in the future, Cao Bao was given some preferential treatment.
"As long as you cooperate, it's not easy to go out?" Xu Shu said, his attitude was quite calm.
But Cao Bao¡¯s whole face collapsed, so he still wants to ¡°cooperate¡±? He suddenly became angry and said: "Who do you think you are, asking Liu Dingfang to come see me!"
In just a few words, Xu Shu captured the weakness of Cao Bao's character, his fierce appearance and inner turmoil.
Xu Shu naturally came prepared, and personally asked Liu Ke's personal guards to investigate the matter, which was the conflict between Liu Ke and Cao Bao when the Yellow Turbans surrounded Xuzhou and Liu Ke rescued Xuzhou.
Clang!
Xu Shu drew his sword directly and pointed it at Cao Bao, shocking the latter.
"How dare a prisoner be so arrogant?"
Afterwards, Xu Shu asked his entourage to throw a sword to Cao Bao, and then said: "Don't say that I bullied you!"
When Cao Bao saw Xu Shu dressed as a scribe, he thought, "How can a great general not deal with even one scribe?"
Then he picked up his sword and fought with Xu Shu.
After more than ten rounds, Xu Shu caught Cao Bao's flaw and subdued him directly. He put the sword on his shoulder and said: "If it weren't for my lord, I would kill you today!"
Cao Bao has been frightened, mmp, what is going on?
¡°It doesn¡¯t matter that Yangzhou¡¯s military generals are brave, even the civil servants are so cruel.
Seeing the change in Cao Bao's expression, Xu Shu's eyes flashed with pride. He has been studying Confucianism assiduously these days, but he has never given up on martial arts, and it finally worked to some extent today.
The Confucian classics still cannot wash away his knight-errant spirit.
Now that the coercion has passed, the next step is to induce.
Xu Shu first followed the same trick as persuading Guan Yu, stating that Yangzhou would not be defeated, but that there would only be casualties, which frightened Cao Bao into a daze.
Now, it was Cao Bao's turn to fall into deep thought.
Because he has to make a major decision, which is related to the fate of the Cao family in Xuzhou.
He looked down upon Liu Ke, but he was kind to Liu Bei. However, Cao Bao knew Liu Bei's caution clearly.
Now that Yangzhou is in crisis, this is his only chance to seek refuge. According to Dongyang Hou's iron heart, Cao Bao believed that he would not have another chance.
"Let Marquis Dongyang come and talk to me!" Cao Bao finally held on to hope and softened his tone.
"Think carefully first. Is there any important information?" Xu Shu said. If there is nothing, it is still a waste of time.
Do you really think Xu Shu cares about the Cao family?
Mi Zhu was able to come over and obtain a high position, which was the period when Liu Ke was most short of funds for starting a business.
To be honest, there is no shortage of money in Yangzhou now. Now that the entire Mi family has invested, it is only a drop in the bucket.
Cao Bao thought hard for a while and found several favorable conditions, but he was not stupid and did not tell Xu Shu and insisted on seeing Liu Ke.
Xu Shu had no choice but to report to Liu Ke.
In the end, Liu Ke gave Cao Bao a chance, but Liu Ke was not optimistic about the value of the intelligence he could provide, otherwise he would have been interrogated in person.
Cao Bao met Liu Ke as he wished. His expression was complicated, but he maintained proper etiquette. He cupped his fists and said, "I have met the Marquis of Dongyang!"
Liu Ke was too lazy to chat with him and asked him to get straight to the point, saying: "The information you provide will determine your status."
There is no expression of affection, only transactions.
"First point, Liu Bei did not fully control Xuzhou. The opposition forces were led by the Chen family. Liu Bei's army lacked generals, and among them, Chen Deng of the Chen family was used. If I can bring the letters of the two young masters, I am sure to convince him Take refuge in Yangzhou." Cao Bao said.
? ??Two of the young masters? refers to pottery merchants and Taoying. In order to better control Xuzhou, Liu Bei sent them to Yangzhou to study.
Liu Ke thought for a while. If this plan succeeds, it will definitely be beneficial to the war situation, but its effect is limited.
Among them, Chen Deng's position is more embarrassing. He is guarded by Liu Bei. Being able to command 10,000 troops is already incredible.
¡° Moreover, in order to check and balance Chen Deng, Chen Deng¡¯s troops must have Liu Bei¡¯s informants.
Being able to dig out this information is a small feat.
"Secondly, Liu Bei has a counselor named Li Shang who is very powerful." Cao Bao couldn't help but show admiration when he mentioned Li Shang.
Liu Ke frowned. Among the Three Kingdoms, there seems to be no powerful counselor named Li Shang.
"Since you said he is powerful, then he must have some deeds, right?" Liu Kedao said that he needed more information.
Cao Bao was well prepared and said: "The reason why Mr. Tao appointed Liu Bei as the governor of Xuzhou is because he made great contributions. He later helped Liu Bei regulate Xuzhou and made suggestions. Two of the princes came to Yangzhou to study because he was the one who seduced them."
Liu Ke quickly grasped the point. Why didn't such a powerful counselor show up to the Allied Forces?
Xu Shu was the same, so he was very excited.
Next, Cao Bao was hesitant to speak, but with Liu Ke's promise, he opened his mouth.
"Liu Bei is the initiator of the alliance. According to my guess, Li Shang will contribute the most behind it," Cao Bao said.
This is it!
Xu Shu feels like he has found a treasure. The value of this information may be enough to affect the entire battle situation.
This is just an empty conjecture and has no use value. You still need to dig it out yourself.
"However, Xu Shu already has a direction.
A counselor can actually stir up the world. There must be a story in it.
"Do you know why Gongsun Zan participated in the war?" Liu Ke suddenly asked a sharp question.
But Cao Bao shook his head and said: "Li Shang is responsible for the documents inviting the princes."
Liu Ke¡¯s question made Xu Shu¡¯s direction more specific.
It stands to reason that Gongsun Zan is far away in Youzhou. He is full and ready, so he wants to come to Yangzhou to cause trouble?
And Yuan Shao
Xu Shu organized his thoughts into a line and couldn't help but be impressed by Li Shang's wisdom.
With only a piece of paper, the six major princes were persuaded to form an alliance, but the power hidden in it was unknown.
Liu Ke sent someone to summon Xun You and said, "Do you know about Li Shang's affairs?"
Xun You looked confused. He went back and searched for a long time before he found the information about Li Shang in the file. There were only some simple records.
"Please forgive me, my lord," Xun You said in apology.
Liu Ke sighed, Xun You handled so many intelligence lines by himself, and it was inevitable that he would be overlooked.
However, Xu Shu said that he was willing to go deep into Xuzhou to investigate Li Shang and prepare for the next battle.
Li Shang is full of mystery and must be guarded against. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
