The soldiers of the Xuzhou army shot out a wave of yellow crossbow arrows and blocked the militia under Xu Chu's command two hundred steps away from the gate.

Xu Chu had a sharp eye. He saw the gap in equipment between the two sides through the crossbow shot on the ground. He temporarily regained his calmness and prevented his troops from acting rashly.

Xu Chu's people stopped fighting, and the pottery became relatively relaxed. To be honest, the pottery really didn't want to have conflicts with the other party.

The so-called war is also a weapon. It is best not to fight if you can fight. After all, life is not easy... A war will kill people!

Every life has its value. Even if it is really to be fought or sacrificed, the pottery merchant hopes to have a reason to bear those lives.

The reason for stealing pigs is obviously not enough.

"Xu Zhuangshi, some things are not clear to you for a while, so Tao can't explain them clearly. Why not stop for the time being. Within one or two days, Tao will give you a suitable explanation, how about it?"

Xu Chu's big bull eye swept around the crossbow arrows that were stuck on the ground, cold and fierce, and was silent for a while before slowly speaking, "Who is this? Can you be the winner?"

Tao Shang nodded and said, "I am named Tao Shang, and I am the eldest son of Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou. This time, he will go to Luoyang with all the princes to attack the rebel Dong Zhuo and serve as the supervisor of the Xuzhou Western Expedition Army. I do not want to have misunderstandings with the heroes here, and I hope he will forgive me."

Looking at Tao Shang's clean and elegant face and listening to his humble and calm words, Xu Chu couldn't help but be stunned: "Are you... Tao Qian's son?"

“Yes.”

He paused for a moment in surprise, and Xu Chu asked again to confirm: "Are you doing it wrong? Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou?"

"That's right." Tao Shang didn't understand why Xu Chu repeatedly confirmed with him about this matter?

In everyone's mind, Tao Qian was born in various students, with a straightforward and elegant temperament. In Xuzhou and Yuzhou, there has been a saying that Tao Qian has been lenient in his administration, self-discipline and rigorous in his two years as a result of his tenure.

Although Tao Qian is old-fashioned and sometimes tends to flatter wealthy and famous people, his noble reputation as the head of a state has always been widely circulated in Dongzhou. Although Xu Chu is in Qiao, he is also known to Tao Qian for his reputation.

I don't expect that it was such a governor who was famous in the eastern part of the Han Dynasty and had a gentlemanly style... His military horses would steal pigs during the Western Expedition under his command. That's fine, but the thief actually had his son? This fact made Xu Chu a little unacceptable.

"The son of Tao Qian in Xuzhou... is actually doing theft!" Xu Chu snorted and muttered to himself.

I am very worried. Those who break the world and who are in power all look like wolf dogs. Finally, one or two people who have praised the title are not true...

There are so many evil people in this world... How can we live our days in the future?

I am tired of living and I don’t want to be a human being anymore!

"Well!" Xu Chu shook his hand in a daze and said, "I heard that the Tao envoy was so popular, and my family believed you this time! Master Tao, my family will go back, but within three days, your Xuzhou army needs to allocate money and grain to my village for apologies, and hand over the thief's head to a family for disposal! This matter will be abandoned... Otherwise, the people from the Zhuang clan of a certain family will not rest with you."

After Xu Chu said this, the generals and soldiers of the Xuzhou army were all red in anger!

Whether it is reasonable or not is the case. With the yellow crossbow arrows just now, can't Xu Chu see that the equipment of the Xuzhou army is far above these militias? In addition, the number of Xuzhou soldiers is very advantageous... This man has no chance of winning at all.

Even so, he actually wanted to make his side pay for money and tie someone up? It was obvious that he didn't want to be kind anymore. This guy really thought he had a long life!?

It’s really hard to cure the unruly people nowadays. Are they so extreme in their personalities?

Only Tao Shang knew that Xu Chu might be just a simple person by nature, and the situation was not that complicated.

The potter neither agreed nor refused, but replied: "Sir Xu Zhuang asked him to go back, and the news will be given to him."

Xu Chu hugged his fists immediately, then ordered a follower to change his troops from the back team to the front team, and slowly evacuated the battlefield.

Tao Shang looked at Xu Chu and his group of people who were leaving, and fell into deep thought... When he was young, he saw him wave his hand and called a captain and ordered: "Get out the troops and return to the camp, and speed up the inspection. We need to be careful of Xu Chu and the others going back."

"No!" The captain immediately took the order.

Although the pottery believed Xu Chu’s promise, he still had to be prepared... After all, the world is difficult and no one can support it.

...

...

Xuzhou Daying, within the commander's tent.

Mi Fang stood on the left side of the handsome tent, looking at the poor-looking Taoist merchant in the middle, and was sweating coldly on his forehead.

No matter how approachable this eldest son Tao is on weekdays, Mi Fang knows that he has done this matter a bit too much today.

"Brother Mi." After a while of silence, Tao Shang finally spoke slowly: "Do you know, what is my position when I follow the army to the west?"

Mi Fang grinned and wanted to smile, but the corners of his mouth were stiff, which was not much better than crying. His smile was like being stepped on by a dog's tail, extremely stiff and slightly funny... It was just that there was no element to ease the awkward atmosphere.

"The eldest son is the military supervisor!" Mi Fang murmured.

Tao Shang looked at Mi Fang calmly and said slowly: "Well, Brother Mi tell me, what is the main responsibility of the military supervisor?"

"This..." Mi Fang's thief turned his slim eyes and whispered: "The position of military supervisor is to supervise the behavioral dispatch of the generals, whether the arrangement of troops and horses is done or not... If there is any inappropriateness, you can write it directly..."

Tao Shang sneered: "Since that's the case, Brother Mi, as the main general, today the two sides face off today and the wonderful performance of returning to the horse and leaving the horse in the last battle, can I 'stand the letter' all at once?"

"Grand Young Master!" Mi Fang was shocked to sweat, and knelt on one knee directly, shouting loudly: "Grand Young Master, Ming Jian! The last general... is wronged!!!"

As he finished speaking, he burst into tears.

Mi Fang's shouting was particularly enchanting. Not only was it a shocking sound, but it also contained many emotions such as pain, grievance, sadness, anger, helplessness, etc. in the short ten words... It was a bit unfamiliar on the spot, otherwise it would definitely make those who hear it sad and those who see it cry. However, the crying that followed was really the finishing touch. Anyone who heard the loud cry felt that he had suffered a huge grievance.

The voice and crying sound came out, and even the guards outside the tent turned their heads and looked at the situation inside the tent... I don't know what kind of methods the supervisor used to shock the world and make a commander of the three armies scream like a pig killing scream.

At this time, the pottery was embarrassed and embarrassed...

Mi Fang, in front of the two armies, had a horse escaped in front of thousands of pairs of eyes, and fled in front of the battle! But now he came to call for justice? I really don't know how Mi Fang's face was made... It was obvious that he did the wrong thing, but it turned out to be like he was unkind.

It is really a bit like a cross-border player to take the blame.

"Shut up for me!" Tao Shang's face turned gloomy and he stopped whispering.

When he finished speaking, Mi Fang instantly stopped crying, raised his head, and there were still tears and tears on his face. It showed how tragic he had just cried... But now it was a breeze and clouds were light and there was no trace of pain.

"How did you do it?" Tao Shang raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Mi Fang's face curiously.

Mi Fang was a little puzzled: "How did you do it?"

"Howl if you want to howl, howl if you want to howl, howl if you don't want to howl... It's easy to retract."

Mi Fang greeted the potter's eyes with interest, and her face turned red with a rare look and she whispered: "Born."

Tao Shang smiled angrily: "Is that so? You are so talented... Let's talk about it, how could you betray the law?"

When Mi Fang heard the Taoist merchant ask this, he was shocked: "Young Master said that I had escaped at the last moment, and the general felt very wronged. Those mountain village men were just people who gathered to harass people, not regular troops, and they were not confrontation between the two armies. How could they say that they would escape at the last moment..."

The more he spoke, the less Mi Fang's voice became, because the pottery's face became less and less beautiful.

It’s no wonder that this kind of unreasonable and unreasonable theory would have been slaughtered by someone else, how could he keep making noise here?

The Taoist merchant didn't want to slap him... It was because Mi Fang had just finished crying, and she had snot and tears on her face. She slapped her, but she was really touching her hands... The Taoist merchant was embarrassed.

Perhaps feeling the idea that the pottery merchant wanted to have a rough idea, Mi Fang immediately added: "Young Master, today's affairs are really unrestrained. The general has never led a soldier. Although he has read some military strategies, it is just a matter of paper talk! The general is originally a merchant. He was scared by that man last night. He was a little disobedient for a while. He hoped that the prince would not care about it..."

Tao Shang sighed: "That's the reason, but when you see the situation today, anyone with a discerning eye knows that our army is far above the other party, and you are still so timid. If you really arrive at the alliance, wouldn't it make the princes laugh out loud?"

Mi Fang said anxiously: "Young Master, I have a good memory and will never make any more mistakes in the future!"

"The problem is that your performance has fallen into the eyes of our soldiers. Can you convince me one by one, or maybe the soldiers of the three armies?"

Mi Fang hurriedly said, "The eldest son, the so-called shame is almost courageous. The last general is willing to issue a military order!"

The Tao merchant reached out to pick up the bowl on the table, took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and then showed a embarrassed expression, saying, "General Mi, to be honest, I was in Xuzhou before, and Brother Ling and I had reached a consensus. My family and you, Mi, are now living on the same boat... I should have given you this face, but my position is there, and the rules are also there. The so-called military law is not merciless! I, Tao, have always boasted of being a gentleman. If I am favored, I am afraid that I will give others quarrels... In this case, you will make me feel embarrassed."

Mi Fang gritted her teeth and tentatively said: "The eldest son, I will be in the southern suburbs of Pengcheng. There is a house in the courtyard with a hundred acres of land under it. If the young master does not abandon it, please take it as long as possible to prepare for future needs."

“…………”

After being silent for a long time, Fang listened to Tao Shang slowly, "Is your house... new?"

Mi Fang stretched out her hand and showed her thumb and index finger: "Eighty percent of the new house, three inside and outside! There are also the farmland irrigated with the Si Shui canal, and the harvest is very good! It is a rare and good place to go to the summer when there is nothing to do in summer!"

It was another long silence.

Tao Shang looked at Mi Fang and said solemnly: "No one is wrong, Brother Mi, today's mistake is the lesson tomorrow. Don't make it again... If you make it again, be careful I will beat you."
Chapter completed!
