After receiving the news of Mrs. Liu's death, Cao Shu knew that he had to go to Yecheng as soon as possible.

He called Zhao Yun, and he left Shouchun with the dragon pattern cavalry.

Before leaving, Cao Shu specifically instructed Chen Gong that no matter what happened to the Huns, he must immediately send someone to tell him.

With a dragon pattern cavalry walking in front of the team, Cao Shu was not very fast, as if he was not in a hurry to reach Yecheng.

"When you leave, you are in a hurry. Why isn't you in a hurry?" Chen Dao asked him by Cao Shu's side.

"I was not rushing to Yecheng, but walking on the road." Cao Shu said: "We will not walk very safely along the way, so General Chen would have been ready early."

"Did you expect someone to cause some trouble halfway?" Chen Dao asked.

"Who else can I have except Yuan Tan?" Cao Shuo smiled slightly: "This time I went to Yecheng. On the surface, my father asked me to go there, but in fact I used me as bait."

Chen Dao, Zhao Yun and others were stunned.

Before leaving, Cao Shu just said that there might be dangers along the way, but they didn't take it seriously.

After marching for many years, they are in danger at all times. Whether it is Chen Da, Zhao Yun, or Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao who are with Cao Shu every day, danger has long become a necessity in their lives.

"Mr. Cao regards the young master as bait?" Chen Dao said in disbelief: "Is the young master thinking too much..."

"I have been with me for so many years. When did you think too much about seeing me?" Cao Shu asked him.

Chen Dao didn't say anything.

Zhao Yun asked from the side: "Young Master means that we are walking halfway, and there are likely troops under Yuan Tan who will come to intercept and kill them?"

"That's what it means." Cao Shuo said: "Yuan Tan summoned Yuan Shang's remnants, and now he has 20,000 troops under his command. In his opinion, with 20,000 people, he could have a chance to fight with our Cao family. But why did he not take action? It's just that I was in Shouchun and my troops occupied half of Qingzhou. As long as he had any abnormal movement, not only would his father send troops to attack, but I would also come to him from behind."

"With Yuan Tan, why should he go to war with his father and me at the same time?" Cao Shu asked Zhao Yun and Chen Dao.

Both of them nodded.

Zhao Yun said: "If Yuan Tan really dares to intercept the young master halfway, I would like to open the way first. I would like to ask General Chen to take care of his son."

After shaking the long halberd in his hand twice, Cao Shuo said with a smile: "Although I have fought everywhere in recent years, I have rarely had the opportunity to fight with others. This is an excellent time to let me revisit my martial arts."

"I know the martial arts of the young master." Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao who followed behind said: "I joined forces with General Zhu, but I just had a draw with the young master."

He turned around and grinned at Deng Zhan, Cao Shu asked, "Did you deliberately let the water go when competing with me?"

After following Cao Shu for a long time, Deng Zhan and others could understand some of the things he said.

He smiled and said to Cao Shuo: "Young Master Wu Yi is recognized by even the Emperor's Master and General Lu. Did you forget that when you captured Xuzhou, your master even fought with General Lu?"

"I am not a match for General Lu." Cao Shu waved his hands repeatedly and said, "General Lu was panicked at that time and had no desire to fight at all. I could only have a draw with him..."

"When the young master captured General Ji, he didn't ask for help." Zhu Ao also said, "In fact, the young master's martial arts can already be taken from the general's head from Wanjun."

Both of them were praising Cao Shuo's martial arts, but Zhao Yun said, "I don't know how the young master's martial arts are, but I know that the young master must not have any gaps. In any case, three generals have to be asked to follow the young master."

"General Zhao is much more delicate than me." Deng Zhan said: "I think I should be the one who leads the way, and General Zhao is by his side."

"General Chen has taken care of the young master before." Zhao Yun retorted: "You know the young master better. Although I have some skills, I am not as good as General Chen. I should leave the matter to me for the pioneering work."

Chen Dao wanted to argue, but Cao Shu said: "There are no need to argue with the two generals. If Yuan Tan really sends troops to intercept them, please ask the two generals to open the way together."

"It's better for a few people to take care of you by your side." Zhao Yun said: "Although General Zhu and General Deng have good martial arts skills, they are just protecting each other, I'm worried..."

"Not only are they, I can kill the enemy myself." Cao Shuo said with a smile: "The three hundred dragon pattern cavalry are handed over to the two generals, as long as I have guards around me."

Cao Shuo's personal guards totaled more than 200.

When he returned to Shouchun, these people would take over the guards of the house, and when he left, these people would follow him.

The guards were all elite soldiers selected from each army. In terms of combat effectiveness alone, they were not much worse than the Dragon Pattern Cavalry.

With their guards, Cao Shu was indeed safe.

However, Deng Zhan and Zhao Yun felt a little worried.

If Yuan Tan wants to attack, he will never send only a few people to intercept him.

The men he sent were probably more than ten times that Cao Shu brought.

With fewer people, there are many people fighting, and Cao Shu is in the dark, Yuan Tan is in the dark, so the chances of winning this battle are not very big.

Although I felt that it was not very stable in my heart, the two who knew Cao Shu very well were not convenient to say more, so I had to secretly decide that once the war really started, I would make a way forward as soon as possible and let Cao Shu leave the place of right and wrong earlier.

When Cao Shu left Shouchun, the news soon reached Yuan Tan's ears.

Although Xun Chen has helped him a lot recently, Yuan Tan still can't believe him.

After receiving the news that Cao Shu left Shouchun, Yuan Tan asked someone to call Xin Ping and Guo Tu over.

The two entered the room, and Yuan Tan came forward to greet him in person.

After closing the door, he asked the two of them, "You must have heard of it."

"Young Master asked if Cao Zirong left Shouchun?" Xin Ping asked.

"That's what I'm talking about." Yuan Tan said: "I have been in the process of serving Cao Cao for a long time. Cao Cao said he wanted to hand over Yanzhou to me, but he occupied Yecheng but did not leave for a long time. Do you think Cao Cao's promise is credible?"

"As far as I say, it's not credible." Guo Tu said: "He just wanted to use the young master to destroy the third prince. Now the third prince has fled to Youzhou, so the young master's use is gone."

Looking at Guo Tu, Yuan Tan's face looked very ugly.

"Young Master, there is something I don't know if I should say." Xin Ping said.

"Although Xinpi surrendered to Cao Cao, Xin Gong was wholeheartedly devoted to me." Yuan Tan said: "I know Xin Gong well, and Xin Gong also knows me. Just say anything."
