Xun You thought, since we had a trade agreement with Lu Ning, why don’t we buy a large number of weapons and equipment from him now? In this way, the combat effectiveness of soldiers will definitely improve. If we can buy war horses, our strength will be even higher. "Lord, can we take advantage of the good relationship with Lu Ning and send people to Bingzhou to buy some war horses and weapons and equipment from him? As for farm tools and oxen, Lu Ning will probably not be restricted. The most important thing is war horses. The combat power of cavalry is not something that infantry can resist, especially when fighting on plains. Infantry encounters cavalry, it will be slaughtered. Our army basically has no cavalry now. Hundreds of cavalry can’t get any major role. There must be thousands of cavalry, and tens of thousands of cavalry will have a greater effect."

After hearing this, Cao Hong said happily: "Lord, we still need to buy weapons and equipment, especially the bows and arrows produced by Lu Ning. They are so awesome. They use small force and long range, which is very useful. If there are only war horses and no good equipment, it won't work."

Cao Cao sighed and said, "I also want to buy a large number of war horses and weapons from Lu Ning. If not, even though we have a trade agreement, Lu Ning will not give it to me for free."

After hearing this, Cao Hong said, "Lord, there is another way to exchange weapons and equipment with Lu Ning?"

When Cao Cao heard this, he immediately got better and asked Cao Hong: "What's the best way?"

Cao Hong said with a smile: "We have a serious shortage of food in our jurisdiction. It is better to send part of the victims and refugees to Lu Ning. This will solve the problem of our lack of money, and at the same time, it can make Lu Ning spend a lot of money and grain. This is a win-win situation. Anyway, does Lu Ning have food now?"

After hearing this, Xi Zhicai said, "Lu Ning would be so stupid. If the victims and refugees fled to him, there is no way. We will bring the victims and refugees to him and ask him to resettle them. He will give us money. This is a bit of course."

After hearing this, Cao Cao said, "I guess Lu Ning won't do this loss. This plan won't work, but it's unprepared to send someone to ask. Now, if the disaster victims and refugees in our jurisdiction don't have anything to settle, they will probably die a lot. Besides, if the people can't live, he will run away, and we can't control it."

Cao Hong said: "Lord, I have another way, I can get a lot of gold and silver with no effort."

Cao Cao smiled and said, "Zi Lian, what else do you have?"

Cao Hong said seriously: "Lord, just grab some of the big merchants and clans in our jurisdiction. If we don't make a fortune, we will definitely get a lot of gold and silver."

After hearing this, Xun You immediately said, "Lord, you must not be offended by the clan's wealthy family. Who will listen to us in the future? This will never be done."

Cao Cao thought for a while and said helplessly: "If it really doesn't work, I have to make a big shot."

Cao Hong said happily: "Don't worry, lord, leave this matter to me."

In the official residence of Tao Qian in Xuzhou, Tao Qian and his civil and military officials Chen Gui, Chen Deng, Mi Zhu, Zhao Yu, Cao Bao, Xu Dan, Zhang Lie, Mi Fang and others watched the news of the Lu Ning army's victory in the north of the Huns and Tartars. Old man Tao Qian was crying while watching. Old man Tao wiped his tears and said, "Lu Ziyi is really a hero of my Han nationality. For many years, the people on the Han border have been harassed and invaded by the Huns and Tartars. The Tartars burned, killed, plundered and robbed the people on the border and did everything badly. Today, the Tartars finally tasted the swords and guns of my Han cavalry."

Chen Gui was also very excited. There were too few such exciting facts. Chen Gui also said tearfully, "From now on the border, I will no longer have to be bullied by the Huns and Tartars. I hope to meet Lu Ziyi in my lifetime. Such a hero is really admirable. Even Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, the two generals, did not have such achievements. It is a blessing for the Han people."

Mi Zhu thought to himself, Lu Ning is really a hero. It is a wise decision for me to betroth his younger sister. My family and him are also wise. Many of what he said to me have verified. It seems that I will also get him to Bingzhou next year. This person's ability is probably more than that. It seems that the head of the Zhen family is really a master. He can be optimistic about Lu Ning when he accomplished nothing and make a big bet to support Lu Ning. I am beyond my reach for such a vision.

After hearing this, Cao Bao saw the two old men crying and constantly praising them. The boss was unhappy. What's so great about that boy Lu Ning? He didn't know a big word, and he had any ability. He was just a little lucky. Cao Bao said loudly: "Lord, that boy Lu Ning really destroyed the 150,000 Tartar cavalry of the Huns Allied Forces? The good news said that Lu Ning only used 50,000 Flying Bear Army soldiers to destroy the 150,000 Huns Iron Cavalry. This was not a fake good news made by Lu Ning? Fifty thousand soldiers faced the 150,000 fierce Huns Iron Cavalry head-on, and wiped out the Huns Iron Cavalry in one battle. How could this be possible? Even Sun Wu was reborn? It must be that Lu Ning was cheating, talking big, and bragging. The purpose was to intimidate the princes around him not to act rashly on him, otherwise the Huns Allied Forces would end up."

Chen Deng was also intoxicated by joy, and was fantasizing about the fierce confrontation between the golden swords and iron horses during the decisive battle between the Han and the Huns. Suddenly, he heard the words of a big fool Cao Bao and glared with his eyes: "I heard that General Cao does not want Lu Ziyi's army to win, but hopes that the Huns and the Tartars cavalry will win? Are you still a great man? You are not only unhappy for others to achieve achievements, but also talk about it from the side. What's your intention?"

After hearing Cao Bao's words, Mi Zhu was also very angry and immediately took Chen Deng's words and said, "The news from the people who are doing business in Bingzhou is that it is true that Lu Ziyi's 50,000 army of 50,000 cavalry to destroy the 150,000 cavalry of the Huns Allied Forces is true, and this will not be false. Besides, even if Lu Ziyi commits fraud, what good will it do to him? The truth will be made public sooner or later. Can Lu Ziyi make a joke about his reputation? We should not judge a gentleman by his villain's heart."

Old man Tao Qian glared at Cao Bao and said, "I met Lu Ziyi when I was in the Great Alliance of Princes, and also saw his soldiers and bravery. His combat power is the first-class among the princes. His soldiers are not only well-equipped, well-trained, and brave and diligent in style. Even the murderous aura on the soldiers is unbearable. What about our army? Even the Yellow Turban Army rioters who have been entrenched in Langya for many years have never been able to eliminate them. Don't you feel embarrassed? Is our Danyang soldiers not brave? It shouldn't be that the Danyang soldiers are considered elite soldiers in the Han Dynasty. The soldiers' individual combat capabilities are definitely not worse than others. Why don't you find more reasons?"
