Seeing Han Hao coming, the pottery merchant hurriedly greeted him and asked curiously: "What business do you have to come to Tao's camp in the middle of the night?"
Han Hao galloped up to the pottery merchant, jumped off his horse, raised his hands to the pottery merchant, and said urgently: "The Bai Bo army is plundering people everywhere around Hanoi County! I heard that General Bao Xin has led troops to rescue everywhere. I hope you can
Mr. Tao, don’t worry about the quarrels and grudges you had with the heads of the famous families during the day, and send troops to save the people of Hanoi!"
The potter's face straightened up and he said, "We must save him, but now is not the time... Han Zhang is here at the right time. He will be able to serve as a guide for our army soon."
"Guide?" Han Hao didn't understand what Mr. Tao meant: "Where would Mr. Tao want me to guide you?"
"We'll talk about this later." The pottery merchant did not answer Han Hao directly, but asked: "Han Hao, I want to ask you something. Personally speaking, do you want to completely pacify the Baibo Army and restore the power of the Three Rivers?"
A true peace."
Han Hao's face darkened, and after thinking for a while he affirmed: "I can only dream of it."
"Okay, it's not impossible to achieve this goal." The pottery merchant showed his unique warm smile: "But if you want to truly eliminate the threat of the Baibo bandits, you have to make sacrifices... Please do your work tonight.
First, lead our army to exorcise the evil spirits of the common people in Hanoi. Tao swears to the sky that he will help you eliminate the Baibo bandits."
Han Hao was dumbfounded by the potter's words. He had no idea what kind of trick this kid was up to and why he was so solemn all of a sudden.
"Master Tao, what exactly do you want to do?"
The potter pulled Han Hao to his side and whispered in his ear for a moment...
Han Hao's eyes suddenly opened wide.
"Master Tao, you!... You are... absolutely impossible!"
The potter stretched out his hand to stop Han Hao from talking and said, "I am seeking justice."
"But this is too..."
Tao Shang said sternly: "If Han Cheng really wants to destroy the Bai Bo Army and restore peace to the people of Hanoi, he must do it according to my method... You are a smart man and should be able to understand the truth."
Han Hao's face turned red and white, and he stared at the pottery merchant blankly, seemingly speechless.
"You also understand the benefits of this matter, and from Tao's point of view, Han Zhengzheng does not particularly like those noble families. Sometimes for the sake of ideals and ambitions, some risks are worth taking!"
Han Hao pondered for a while, seemingly hesitating, and his face was gritted with teeth, as if he was undergoing a major torment in his heart.
After a long while, I saw Han Hao being cruel, stamping his feet and gritting his teeth: "For the sake of peace in Hanoi, I will take a gamble on the young master! ... Just don’t make a fuss about this matter afterwards!"
The pottery merchant smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm very strict with my mouth."

Xu Chu's movements were very fast, and a group of Xuzhou's cavalry destroyed a nearby Baibo army of about a thousand marauding bandits with lightning speed.
After the incident was completed, Xu Chu immediately ordered some of the cavalry to stay behind to deal with the corpses of the bandits, and he led the other half of the cavalry to quickly bring the captured Baibo Army uniforms and flags back to the Xuzhou Army's barracks.
When the armor of the Bai Bo Army was placed in front of Han Hao, Han Zheng's face showed unprecedented struggle and pain.
"Don't be stunned, put it on." The pottery merchant urged Han Hao.
Han Hao's eyes seemed to flash with a trace of confusion and pain, and he suddenly sighed with emotion: "After what happened tonight, Hao is afraid that Wu Yan will no longer be called a disciple of Confucius."
Seeing Han Hao's sad expression, the pottery merchant felt somewhat distressed.
"I can't stay in the Confucian Sect... How about I introduce you to the Confucian Sect?"
Han Hao's face was still turning red and white: "Mr. Tao, can't we think of another way?"
The pottery merchant advised, "Han Zheng, if you are always hesitant and hesitant like you, you will die quickly."
Han Hao glared at the pottery merchant with contempt.
"Only those who are so bold and dare to do anything like Young Master will die quickly!"
The pottery merchant shrugged his shoulders and said it didn't matter.
So what if you die soon? Theoretically speaking, if you travel back to this era and resurrect the corpse, you will be regarded as a person who died once... Those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes.
Han Hao muttered, but still led his cronies to put on the clothes of the Baibo Army... and over there, Tao Shang, Xu Chu and a group of elite Xuzhou Army also put on the clothes of the Baibo Army.
Clothes and armor.
After changing, the pottery merchant turned his head and looked at the copycat version of the "White Wave Army Squad" behind him, which consisted of about a thousand people.
"Hmm... Although there are still some flaws, they are quite satisfactory and should be able to be fooled." The pottery merchant nodded and made some comments to himself.
Turning his head, he saw Han Hao stroking the beard on his chin, straightening his back. He was wearing the bandit uniform of the Baibo Army, but he had neatly tidied up his whole body. Not even a single wrinkle could be found in the bandit uniform on his body.
The pottery merchant was not very satisfied when he saw this... How could this be a Baibo Army thief? He was clearly the son-in-law who had been robbed by the bandits and returned from the village!
Stepping up to Han Hao, the pottery merchant walked around him and looked at him while shaking his head: "It doesn't look like it, it doesn't look like it, something is wrong?"
"Master Tao, what's wrong?" Han Hao asked curiously.
"Han Zhengzheng, could you please be rude? How can such a gentle and elegant Confucian general be a thief? And your clothes, I really can't figure it out. A piece of thief's rags can make you look like a ceremonial robe. You
How did you cultivate this temperament?...It's easy to get ganged up on when you go out like this."
Han Hao shook his head and said: "I have been adhering to Confucianism since I was a child. I am used to dressing and talking like this on weekdays. I really can't be rude..."
When he finished speaking, he suddenly saw the pottery merchant stepping forward, grabbing Han Hao's neat skirt, and tearing it apart with force, directly tearing a big rip on his chest of his white military uniform, revealing Han Hao's snow-white clothes.
Hairy chest.
"Damn you!" Han Hao hurriedly stretched out his hand to protect the skirt of his chest and cursed loudly.
Tao Shang's frown suddenly relaxed, and he smiled and said: "The way you dress is like a thief, and the way you talk is like a thief... That's how it is."
Han Hao's complexion turned livid and stiff.
The pottery merchant didn't take it seriously, looked at Han Hao with a smile and said: "Master Han, let's go, let's go to the first stop... How many miles away is the property of a prominent Hanoi family from here?"
Han Hao's face turned pale. After a while, he whispered in a low voice: "From here, fifteen miles to the west... the Ping family's horse farm in Hanoi... it's over there!"
Upon hearing this, Tao Shang nodded suddenly and asked: "Among the leading generals of the Baibo Army, which one is the stupidest and cutest?"
Han Hao's eyes twitched: "I have heard for a long time that Li Le, the fourth thief of the Baibo Thief, has a violent personality, impure nature, and murders cruelly..."
"He is the one who will take the blame." Tao Shang nodded firmly and told Xu Chu: "I am giving this order to the brothers who are doing this operation. When they are doing things for a while, they are doing things and shouting loudly. They are acting on behalf of Heaven on the orders of Marshal Bai Bo Li."
, whoever dares to shout is wrong, I will serve you with big ears."
"promise!"
Han Hao's cheek muscles twitched as he listened. He had no idea who the master was who inspired the pottery merchant to actually think of using such a provocative and cohesive four-character slogan as "Walking for Heaven".
It deeply implements the fundamental purpose of thieves and effectively explains the spiritual needs of thieves from the side... It feels like it has brought the level of Baibo thieves to a new level, and there is nothing wrong with it.
If this guy doesn't become a thief or a bandit, he'll become a prince. He's just wasting his talents in vain.

The dark moon kills people on a murderous night, and the wind blows high and sets people on fire.
Although the ancestral home of the Ping family in Pingyi is in Pingyi County, the head of the family, Ping Zheng, moved the main home to Huai County many years ago.
After all, it is the seat of Hanoi County, and the main residence is moved here. I know first-hand information about everything in the county, and can make timely planning arrangements.
In the suburban counties outside the city, fires shot into the sky from all directions, and shouts and killing sounds could be heard faintly from the night sky to Huai County.
Ping Zheng, the head of the Ping family, was wearing a robe and came out of the house. He climbed up and looked into the distance. He looked at the scattered firelights in the distance outside the county, showing a look of triumphant contentment.
"Hey, I didn't expect that these remnants of the Yellow Turbans were quite discerning. They took advantage of Bao Xin's army and Xuzhou army's arrival and went out to plunder the valley on the first night... This move can be said to have greatly disgraced them... hum.
Humph, as for what happened tonight, tomorrow I will invite several other family heads to go to the prefect's mansion for a confrontation. Let's see what kind of appearance Bao Xin and the pottery merchant's son have who continue to hang around here? If they want to beg thieves... get out.
Go back to Yanzhou and Xuzhou to ask for it."
Behind Pingzheng, the housekeeper of Pingfu said to him respectfully: "Master, the Baibo Army launched such a large-scale surprise attack this time. The fire in the surrounding villages can even be seen in our county. I am worried, Master, you are here."
Will the industries in the suburbs..."
Mr. Ping waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about this. Thieves like Bai Bojun still have some rules... You see, these thieves have robbed homes a lot in the past few years, but how many times did they dare to touch them?
Did they steal my Ping family's farm estate? Hey, even the last time we went south to conquer Hanoi and fight against Niu Fu, our land was not occupied by them at all. The momentum of the famous family is there, lend them some courage.
It’s also not helpful.”
The housekeeper was still hesitant and said: "Although what the head of the family said is reasonable, we have never encountered such a large-scale harassment by the Baibo Army..."
Pingzheng laughed loudly, shook his head and said, "You are really worrying too much..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw two servants from the Ping clan carrying an exhausted and dirty house slave to Ping Zheng.
"Master! Master! Something bad has happened..."
The smile on his face that was still complacent froze involuntarily. For some reason, an uneasy feeling quickly occupied his heart, as if it was the cold wind that invaded the human body in the dark night. There was no trace, but he could still feel it clearly.
Clearly.
"What? Who is in charge of you? Are you in a panic? What's the matter?"
When the slave came to Pingzheng, his legs softened and he knelt down. He said in a panic: "The villain is under the steward of the racecourse fifty miles away in the western suburbs. The steward Yu specially ordered the villain to come and report a message to the master of the family at starry night..."
When Pingzheng heard the words "Xijiao Racecourse", his face suddenly turned pale.
That is the largest horse farm of his Binh clan around Hanoi County! It is also one of the few large horse farms near Huai County that can handle thousands of horses.
"What's going on at the racecourse? Tell me quickly!"
While bucking his head hard, the slave cried out: "Master! Manager Yu asked me to come and report... I'm going to die! The racecourse... is over! It's all over! The white wave army bandits have plundered all the horses at the western suburbs racecourse..."
! He also set a torch on the entire racecourse! Not a single inch was spared! Manager Yu is still leading the people there to put out the fire, but he first sent the villain to apologize to the master!"
Ping Zheng was speechless at this moment, but the old housekeeper of the Ping family hurriedly said: "Didn't the Bai Bo Army not rob our Ping family's property on weekdays? What's going on today... what's going on... not only did it rob
, and you actually set fire to it? What an incredible thing to do!"
The slave cried and shouted: "There is nothing we can do. Not only did the thieves robbed us, but they also said they were doing justice to God."
