late at night.

Cao Shi was not in the military camp tonight, but outside, because there was a special guest today, and this person was no one else, Shi Hu.

Of course, Cao Shi did not believe in Shi Hu and was also prepared for him. Therefore, although he was not in the military camp, he was not far away, only two miles away. Once Shi Hu had any evil behavior, the soldiers in the military camp could soon come to support him.

Cao Shi walked back and forth there, his face gloomy and he looked worried.

Although Cao Shi successfully seized power and killed Gu Chunhua, he felt very angry. It was so good that he calmed down afterwards and felt like a disaster was coming. Moreover, this feeling has become stronger and stronger in recent days, because Cao Shi knew very well that what he did would never be tolerated by the court.

Many people have done some things, but this does not mean that you can do it openly. If you don’t save face for the court, the final result will be that both sides will break up. Just like Shi Hu, everyone knows that Wei Wennan’s death is inseparable from him, but Shi Hu’s secrets are not fully evidenced by the court, so he will not take action easily.

"General, Shi Hu is here with people."

An officer came hurriedly and reported.

Cao Shi asked, "How many people have come?"

“More than a thousand.”

Shi Hu brought so many people over, what exactly do you want to do?

Cao Shi's expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly said to a general beside him: "Let your brothers gather here. If Shi Hu dares to do anything, he will destroy him here."

"Yes, General."

The general nodded and turned around and left.

But after a moment, another officer came and reported again: "Shihu's large group of troops stopped two miles away from us, and only twenty soldiers continued to come."

Upon hearing this news, Cao Shi's expression was obviously much relaxed. Shi Hu brought so many people over for precautions. Now he has only brought twenty people over, which has shown his sincerity.

"Brother Cao, where are you? Brother, I'm here, why don't I come out to greet you?"

Before the person arrived, Shi Hu's voice had already sounded.

"Brother Shi, don't worry, I'll come out to welcome you now."

Cao Shi laughed and walked outside with great strides.

After they met, they both seemed very happy. Judging from their expressions, they also seemed very familiar.

There are only two Jiedushi in Lingnan, and Qianzhou and Chenzhou are not far apart. Therefore, in the past, most officers and soldiers in these two places had relationships. In addition, Wei Wennan and Lu Siyao were also more loyal to the court. Their personal relationship was very good, so there was not much barrier between the two places, and the relationship in the past seemed very harmonious.

Cao Shi and Shi Hu are indeed old acquaintances. Wei Wennan and Lu Si are not ambitious people. They have little ambitions and desires. The two have not had much interest disputes, so the officers and soldiers in Qianzhou and Chenzhou can come and go freely without any restrictions. Cao Shi's brother-in-law is Chen Shu, a general under Wei Wennan. He used to go to Qianzhou. When he was there, Wei Wennan would occasionally entertain himself, and Chen Shu's deputy general was Shi Hu. So every time Cao Shi went to Qianzhou, Chen Shu would definitely hold a banquet to entertain him. Shi Hu, as his confidant deputy general, would naturally be present.

The two of them made some polite decisions, then entered the venue and sat down.

Shi Hu said apologetically: "Brother Cao, brother, I'll apologize for you here. After Wei Wennan's death, civil strife broke out in the army. Chen Shu was trapped in the riot army. I led the army to quell the rebellion, but unfortunately..."

After Shi Hu seized military power, he immediately launched a large-scale purge and killed dissidents. Chen Shu was a neutral member. He neither agreed nor opposed Shi Hu's actions and wanted to protect himself. However, Chen Shu was among the first batch of senior generals in the army killed by Shi Hu, and Shi Hu was deliberately doing it. From this point, it can be seen that Shi Hu was obviously a kind of cold, ruthless, cruel and ruthless person. You must know that if Chen Shu had not been excavated and promoted, Shi Hu might still be chopping wood in the mountains.

"I'm already unable to protect myself. What's the matter with other things? Maybe it won't take long before I'll go downstairs to accompany my brother-in-law."

Cao Shi sighed, how did Chen Shu die? At this moment, he no longer had the energy to care about it.

Shi Hu said in a pretentious manner: "Why did Brother Cao say this? You have now controlled the military and political power of the entire Chenzhou. It is the time to be proud of your youth."

Cao Shi looked at Shi Hu, and his face suddenly became cold: "Shi Hu, you and I will meet today, not just say these nonsense."

Shi Hu smiled and said, "Cao Shi, come and ask me for what you mean and what you have, just say it."

Cao Shi said: "I know you have someone in the court, so the news must be much more informative than me. I want to know now, how is the court ready to treat me?"

"The court has indeed made a decision. This is the news that just came from Fengjing this afternoon. You can take a look at it yourself."

Shi Hu took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Cao Shi.

Cao Shi opened the letter and watched it, his face gradually turned pale.

Shi Hu looked at Cao Shi's expression and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes. This was a fool. Because of his anger, he killed so many people and had done everything. He was scared now. What's the use?

The court has made a decision to use force to resolutely eradicate Cao Shi, with Zhao Baian as the commander-in-chief of the South, Sima Zhong as the marching Sima, Kou Xiong and Huang Hui as the deputy generals, and all the troops from Jiangnan were raised, with a total of more than 50,000 troops, and they were about to go south to attack Chenzhou.

Cao Shi put down the letters in his hand, with a total of 50,000 troops, including Zhao Bai'an, Huang Hui and other famous generals who have been fighting for many years. Thinking about such strength and lineup, Cao Shi was undoubtedly extremely frightened at this moment, but he still pretended to be calm and said to Shi Hu: "Shi Hu, you must help me. If I finish it, you will be finished."

Shi Hu's face turned cold and he said coldly: "Cao Shi, what nonsense are you talking about? The court is going to beat you. Is there anything to do with me?"

Cao Shi sneered: "What you did is not much better than mine. The court has put in such a great effort this time. If it is just to deal with me, it would be a bit of a big deal. In my opinion, the court just wanted to destroy it with one shot, and I and you will destroy it. Can you Shi Hu still see such an obvious thing?"

Shi Hu could see this, and Fengjing sent him a clear message. This time the court had made up its mind to eradicate Cao Shi and himself together to boost the majesty of the court.

"A 50,000 army, Zhao Bai'an, Huang Hui and others are not ordinary people. With the strength of me, Cao Shi, if you really want to fight, you will be a mantis arm and kill yourself. It would be better to surrender directly. Even if you want to die, Cao Shi will be alone, and you will be able to protect others from being implicated."

Cao Shi said this, which was already a bit threatening.
