Tao Qian has been having trouble sleeping and eating these past few days.
The reason was that Cao Cao led troops to attack the border of Xuzhou from time to time. This guy didn't dare to go to Langya County to face the Longshan Army directly, so he went to several other places to attack, causing the whole Xuzhou to panic.
The most disgusting thing is that after Cao Cao captured the city, he did not take it for himself. Instead, he looted all the materials in the city, burned all the houses, and finally drove all the people to Xiapi.
Cao Cao also told everyone that what happened to them was all because Tao Qian killed his father, and he was seeking revenge for his father's murder.
Lao Cao is worthy of being Lao Cao. This is the first step to take advantage of the great righteousness.
At this time, the most important thing for people is filial piety. It is understandable to avenge one's father.
So, everyone spread their grievances on Tao Qian. Since you made us homeless, it can't be justified that Tao Qian doesn't care about our lives.
It makes sense to think this way, and some people even felt silent for Cao Cao. After all, his father died. If you put yourself in his shoes, if you were in this situation and you were still capable, you would definitely avenge your father.
With this mentality, people even began to voice support for Cao Cao, which made Tao Qian angry.
"My lord, we can't go on like this. More and more refugees are gathering outside the city. If we don't put them inside the city, things may change."
Tao Qian looked at the scribe who was speaking, frowned and said, "Do you think I don't know? But even so, they can't be let in. Who can guarantee that Cao's thieves are not among them? If a wolf is lured into the house, who will be responsible for this?"
responsibility?"
The scribe was speechless for a moment. He did not dare to pat his chest and say that he would take the responsibility.
At this time, a sergeant trotted in, half-knelt on the ground, and breathlessly reported: "It's not good, the mob is attacking the city gate."
"What!"
Everyone in the hall looked shocked.
Tao Qian frowned and said, "What is supposed to come has come."
At this time, a general next to him stepped forward and clasped his fists and said: "Why do you need to worry, Duke? Just go and drive them away."
The name of this general was Zuo Rong. People who knew him must know that this guy was later killed by the people, and his head was cut off and presented to Liu Yao, which shows how unpopular he was.
A flash of emotion flashed across Tao Qianshan. He knew what Zuo Rong was doing. If he stepped in to deal with it, he might be able to solve the current problem, but he was afraid that it would arouse even greater public indignation.
After hesitating for a while, Tao Qian shook his head and said, "No, they are my Xuzhou people after all, and I cannot kill them."
When several scribes heard this, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They were afraid that if Tao Qian agreed directly, even if the problem was solved, it would be a disaster for the future.
At this moment, another sergeant hurried in from outside the door.
Tao Qian's expression changed, thinking that the refugees had broken through the city gate. Before the sergeant could speak, he asked, "Tell me, is the city gate broken?"
The sergeant opened his mouth, glanced at Tao Qian doubtfully, clasped his fists and said, "I don't know."
Just as Tao Qian was about to reprimand, the scribe on the side hurriedly said: "He is the person responsible for the defense of the shipyard."
The sergeant clasped his fists and said, "I'm reporting to the Duke, the Wei family has sent a piece of information, saying that an army of about 20,000 troops is gathering in Pengcheng."

"Pengcheng?"
Tao Qian asked: "Can you tell who is leading the army?"
The sergeant shook his head and replied: "No, but the people of the Wei family asked me to remind the prince that the other party is not good. If you need help, the Wei family's Longshan Army can help."
Tao Qian was overjoyed when he heard this. This was the result he wanted.
As long as the Longshan Army is willing to come to help, the mere Cao thieves will not care.
However, he didn't wait for Tao Qian to speak.
Several scribes nearby stepped forward and cupped their hands, saying: "My lord, you must not do this. It is easy to ask for help but difficult to give away."
Tao Qian turned back to look at the few people and shouted angrily: "You guys, don't judge a gentleman with a villain's heart. What's more, only the Wei family can solve the current problem. If you can come up with a solution, why should I do this?"
adventure?"
Several scribes looked at each other, helpless.
Tao Qian snorted coldly, turned around and told the sergeant: "Go immediately and invite people from the Wei family to come to the house and tell them that a banquet will be held in his honor."
The sergeant clasped his fists and left. Everyone in the hall looked at me and me, and all felt unspeakable anxiety welling up in their hearts.

Donghai County.
Xun or his group were enjoying the sunbathing at the beach.
Not to mention later generations, in fact, as early as ancient times, the ancients liked to bask in the sun, believing that it could ward off evil spirits, avoid disasters, and cure diseases and save people.

Zhang Fei was wearing a pair of large trousers, and his upper body was bare, revealing his visible chest and abdominal muscles. He turned back to look at Huang Zhong and asked curiously: "Uncle Han, why don't you expose your arms and have to cover them with cloth? Is there anything special about it?"
After everyone heard this, they looked at Huang Zhong curiously.
I saw that he was also wearing a pair of underpants, with muscles exposed everywhere else on his body, except for his hands, which were wrapped in cloth.
Huang Zhong lay on the beach, squinted his eyes, and agreed as expected: "What if I get sunburned?"
Huang Xu curled his lips and said, "Don't worry about him. This old man has a clear mind. He is afraid that the sun will burn his arms and affect his archery skills."
When Yang Feng, Tai Shici and others heard this, they showed expressions of admiration. They were worthy of being great archers, and they must maintain their best condition at all times. Compared with Huang Zhong, they and others were simply too Meng Lang.
In the temporary thatched house, Xun was sorting out documents sent from Hedong.
Among them are some suggestions written by Wei Cheng himself, and the most important thing is to cooperate with the construction of kelp planting fields, because kelp will become an important strategic material for a long time to come.
Kelp can not only be made into MSG, but also has good medicinal value. It can supplement many trace elements and has a good beneficial effect on patients with night blindness.

Xun You raised his eyes, nodded slightly, and motioned for him to come in.
The man handed over the sheepskin envelope with both hands and said: "The secret guard said that Tao Qian also got the news and asked us to be prepared."
Xun You took the envelope, nodded and said, "Go and tell the secret guard not to be in a hurry. I will think about it later when I will send troops for reinforcements."
Xun You couldn't help but frown when he opened the envelope.

"...With five thousand cavalry and fifteen thousand infantry, isn't Cao Cao afraid that there will be no return?"
"Strategist, strategist!"
Hua Cun's voice came from outside the door. This guy was arranged to go treasure hunting before and didn't want to come back today.
Xun was overjoyed when he heard the words. Listening to the voice, Hua Cun has gained a lot this time.
Several people who were basking in the sun not far away also moved after hearing the sound. From all the way, they heard Zhang Fei ask: "How, have you found the treasure?"
Hua Cun laughed and said: "I found it, I found it, and there is an unexpected gain."
Everyone entered the thatched house together. The space, which was originally quite spacious, was suddenly squeezed into a tight space by several burly men.
Xun You angrily motioned for everyone to sit down and talk. If they were all standing, no light from the doors and windows would come in at all.
Zhang Fei couldn't wait to ask: "Tell me, what treasures do you have?"
Hua Cun smiled, first gave Xun He a fist salute, and said in admiration: "Thanks to the military advisor for reminding me in advance, otherwise this trip would have cost many people. There are indeed many traps set up in the cave where the treasure is hidden."
Xun You smiled and said: "This is inevitable. If someone comes to hide treasure, some protective measures must be taken."
Hua Cun once again clasped his fists to express his gratitude, and then took out a list and a box from the sea.
"This is the list I asked people to compile. As for this, it is an unexpected gain this time. Military advisor, please take a look at what text this is."
Xun or took the list, placed it on the eucalyptus, and then took the box.
When everyone saw this, they all looked curiously.
Xun You slowly opened the box and saw a picture inside.
"Is this... another treasure map?" Zhang Fei exclaimed.
Hua Cuan glared at him angrily, and then hurriedly asked Xun Yue, "Military advisor, this picture should be very important, right?"
Xun You looked at the strange lines on it, and his expression changed at first, and then he said uncertainly: "This picture is probably the legendary river picture."
···
Pengcheng.
Cao Cao personally led an army of 20,000 people and easily captured several counties. On the one hand, he wanted to replenish food and grass, and on the other hand, he also took the opportunity to see Tao Qian's reaction.
At this time, Cao Cao and Guo Jia were playing chess in the courtyard.
Next to them stood two beautiful women, gingerly serving tea and pouring water.
Cao Cao held the chess piece and said in a deep voice: "Fengxiao, if Tao Qian asks for help, if we all go out like this, I'm afraid we won't end up well."
Snap, the chess piece landed on the chessboard.
Guo Jia took the tea cup and smelled it, and answered the question: "The tea sold by Wei family is indeed quite good. My lord also drinks a few more cups. It was finally found in the house. It is said that one pound costs two thousand Wen."
Woolen cloth."
Cao Cao frowned slightly, picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp, smacking his lips, but he didn't think it was anything good to drink.
Seeing him chewing peonies like a cow, Guo Jia shook his head in distress.
"My lord is worried about Wei's Longshan Army rushing to Xiapi, but I think there is nothing to worry about."
Cao Cao frowned and looked at him, "What's the explanation?"
Guo Jia put down the tea cup and said leisurely: "The Wei family's layout in Xuzhou is obvious. The master wants Tao Qian's head, and the Wei family wants the products of Xuzhou. We each have our own plans. If the water in the well does not interfere with the river, the Wei family cannot.
Embarrassing the Lord."

In fact, Guo Jia has been studying the Wei family's real purpose these days. To be precise, it is a long-distance battle of wits and courage with Xun He.
After several days of intelligence collection, he suddenly discovered that the Wei family did not seem to have any intention of continuing to form an alliance with Tao Qian.
There may have been an intention to form an alliance before, but judging from Wei's recent performance, it's clear that they have given up on Tao Qian.
If not for this, when Cao Cao sent people to cause trouble and looting in various places, the Longshan Army should have come to stop it.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Guo Jia believed that the Wei family also had an agenda.
Combined with Wei's layout of shipyards, Guo Jia quickly came to a conclusion.
Mr. Wei would not really help Tao Qian, and even wished that Tao Qian had died soon.
Guo Jia revealed all his thoughts, which shocked Cao Cao and made him unable to react for a while.
"Seriously, as you said, can't we just go straight in and kill that old Tao Qian?" Cao Cao frowned.
Guo Jia chuckled, "No, no, it's too early to take action at this time. I asked the army to gather just to see Wei's reaction. If we wait for two more days, if the Longshan Army still hasn't
If it appears, it can basically be concluded that my guess is correct."
Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "Okay, two days will last in the blink of an eye. If it is true as the military advisor said, I will personally take Tao Qian's life."
···
In the blink of an eye, two days passed.
What made Cao Cao unbelievable was that they had been delayed in Pengcheng for several days, and Wei's people never showed up.
Everything was exactly as Guo Jia had guessed, and the Wei family had no intention of rushing to aid Tao Qian.
So, Cao Cao, who had been impatient for a long time, immediately ordered his army to march towards Xiapi.
at the same time.
Xiapi City has long been in chaos. The refugees outside the city are constantly causing trouble, and many of the Zhuangzi fields of many aristocratic families outside the city have been looted.
Even the potato seedlings and sweet potato seedlings that were just planted have not escaped the abuse of the refugees. It is not an exaggeration to describe them as digging three feet into the ground.
The city was also in chaos. I don't know who revealed the news that a large army was attacking the city. Many aristocratic families in the city wanted to flee.
In addition, the refugees caused chaos outside the city, and the aristocratic families suffered heavy losses. Some aristocratic families who originally clung to Tao Qian have now become the ones causing trouble.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! I don’t know who took the lead first. Taking advantage of the shift change of the city defense, someone disguised as a soldier secretly opened the city gate.
Suddenly, a large number of refugees poured into the city. The refugees, who had been hungry for many days, grabbed and smashed everything they saw. Regardless of the outcome, they began to vent their dissatisfaction over the past few days.
Upon seeing this, the original civilians in the city also joined the robbery team, and some even led a team to loot the granary.
By the time the city's guards reacted, it was already too late. The refugees gathered together, even if they were holding wooden sticks and bluestones, they were a force that could not be underestimated.
Tao Qian and others, who were originally kind to the refugees, did not hesitate at all and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to suppress them with force.
But facing nearly 200,000 refugees, how could a military force of less than 20,000 cope with it, let alone many of their fellow villagers and even family members?
Ever since.
When Cao Cao led his army to Xiapi City, not only was the city gate open, but the refugees learned that he was here to avenge his father, and even joined Cao Cao's team one after another.

[My balcony leads to the Three Kingdoms] []
Of course, it wasn't that they understood the righteousness very well. The reason why they chose to join Cao Cao's team was simply because they were afraid that Tao Qianqiu would settle the score later.
"Where is Tao Qian?" Cao Cao fought all the way to the city.
Xiahou Dun walked out of the mansion with a middle-aged man who looked like a butler, frowning and said: "Escaped, he escaped all night last night."
Unexpectedly, Cao Cao missed the opportunity. He was so angry that he drew his sword and killed the butler with one blow.
"Send people to chase you. No matter what, you will see the person alive and the corpse if you die."
Looking at the furious Cao Cao, Xiahou Dun cupped his fists and saluted.
But at this moment, the butler who had been stabbed in the stomach said: "Save me, save me, I know where the prince is hiding, save me, I don't want to die..."
Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this. He drew his sword again and stabbed the steward in the thigh. He said ferociously: "No one can negotiate terms with me. If you tell me, I will give you a pain. If you don't say anything, I will kill you with one sword."
Pick out all the flesh on your body."
