Not long after, all the people who claimed to be sent by Sun Jian entered the camp.

Only a middle-aged man entered the handsome tent.

Although he was in Cao's camp, and he had fought against Cao's army in the daytime, he did not have the slightest fear or fear, and he looked calm.

Even Cao Cao, Xi Zhicai, and Kuaiyue showed admiration in their eyes.

"Who are you?" Cao Cao spoke first.

The middle-aged man bowed his hands to Cao Cao: "It's unfortunate that Sun Taishou's side is a small official whose surname is Zhang Mingzhao!"

"Zhang Zhao?

Cao Cao pondered for a moment: "It turned out to be Mr. Zibu. I have long heard of Mr.'s talent. When I saw him today, just looking at his bearing, it was already extraordinary."

"But we just fought today, so you came here, are you not afraid that I will directly take your head and sacrifice ~ flag?"

Speaking of this, Cao Cao's whole body's killing intent was immediately revealed, as if he wanted to do something.

Zhang Zhao laughed: "No, no!

"Duke Cao has the world in mind, if he kills me directly because of this matter, wouldn't he ruin his reputation? 35

"My life is small, Duke Cao's reputation is great, and ordinary businessmen are unwilling to do such a loss-making business. How could Duke Cao do it?"

Cao Cao laughed twice: "Mr. Zibu can see it clearly, but I really don't know the purpose of your visit today!"

"I don't know what Brother Wentai means? Could it be that the soldiers first and then the rituals?"

Zhang Zhao shook his head.

"Isn't it necessary?

Cao Cao pondered for a moment, but did not speak.

Zhang Zhao continued: "In the Battle of Qinggu, the coalition forces were defeated. Liu Bian once spared my lord's life. This kindness is higher than the sky. Even an ordinary man can't forget it. How could my lord forget it?"

"If you take it seriously, I'm afraid that the heroes of this world will despise my lord."

Having said this, Cao Cao naturally understood Sun Jian's intention to send troops.

Although there was no major change on his face, he was really relieved.

It seems that his daytime worries are really superfluous.

"Brother Wentai means that he wants to send troops to repay Liu Bian and repay his kindness?"

Zhang Zhao nodded: "The kindness is too great, one dispatch of troops is far from enough, so we have to help Liu Bian to keep Jiangling, only in this way can my Lord's heart be at peace."5

Cao Cao said: "Brother Wentai is really a wonderful person!"

"It's just that it's not up to him to decide whether or not Jiangling City can be saved. In this boundary of Jingzhou, if someone from me, Cao, doesn't agree, I'm afraid Brother Wentai won't be so sure about it, right?"

Zhang Zhao nodded: "That's a good thing to say, because of this, I will come here today."

"What kind of bargaining chip did Mr. Zibu come with? You must know that I, Cao, are not someone who has not seen the world. If it is some trivial petty profit, then I don't like it. Cao Cao said with great interest.

Zhang Zhao was not angry at all because Cao Cao said this.

Instead, he continued to say calmly: "Cooperation naturally requires sincerity.

"All people with lofty ideals in the world today hope to be able to compete in the Central Plains. Now that Liu Bian is rising in Youzhou, his power is getting bigger and bigger. It can be said that even if it is Dong Zhuo, I am afraid that when it is released next year, Liu Bian will be able to defeat it. "5

"My lord is willing to fight against Liu Bian with Gong Gong. As for defeating Liu Bian in the future, then we will naturally have our own abilities. Presumably Gong Gong also thinks the same.

Zhang Zhao's words were very straightforward, but Cao Cao was extremely happy.

He is now worrying about how to resist Liu Bian's southward march next year. Now that Sun Jian is willing to help, it can be said that he will increase his strength and increase his chances of victory. How could he refuse?

However, although he was willing to form an alliance with Sun Jian in his heart, he did not want to appear so eager.

You must know that it is very troublesome to form an alliance. Several groups of people need unified coordination, so they must distinguish between high and low.

・・・・For flowers・・・

Therefore, Cao Cao paused and said, "Brother Wentai, although his eyes are good, how can I trust your sincerity? 35

"You know that during the day, we are hostile to each other.

"Suddenly changing roles, I really can't get used to it.

Zhang Zhao smiled and said, "Being able to appear here represents my Lord's greatest sincerity."

"Think about how we would have come all the way here if we had no sincerity?"

"Liu Bian's power is not something that any of us can resist, we must unite to have a chance.

.0...

"So my lord hopes to cooperate with Duke Cao. Only in this way can we survive together."

Zhang Zhao still said slowly.

After Cao Cao heard this, he remained silent again.

What Zhang Zhao said is not without reason.

If it wasn't for his lack of sincerity, why would he appear at this time?

Why should the key to dispatching troops be made clear?

"Duke Cao, my lord also specifically explained that our army is only to help Duke Cao to resist Liu Bian, and you are the main force.

"So on the battlefield, you naturally occupy the dominant position, we are only auxiliary, just for mutual benefit. 35

Zhang Zhao threw his chips again.

This time Cao Cao really couldn't sit still.

Isn't that what he was waiting for? Now that Zhang Zhao said it directly, how could he be unhappy?

But then Cao Cao felt Sun Jian's fear again.

Being able to easily give up the dominance is not something ordinary people can do.

"Mr. Zibu, it's getting late today, and you're tired and tired, why don't you take a night's rest and let me think about it, how about that? Cao Cao said with a smile.

Zhang Zhao also knew that such a major event would not be solved so easily in a short while.

He nodded slowly and bowed his hands to retreat.
