The day of farewell finally arrived. After arranging the troops and horses, Tao Shang's Xuzhou Army was divided into two parts, the front and rear. Baibo Army was placed in the center, and then they pulled out of the valley and slowly headed towards Xuzhou.
Han Hao personally bid farewell to the pottery merchant outside the Baibo Valley, while the pottery merchant watched his army slowly marching outside the valley, while looking at Han Hao as if he was reluctant to leave...
The look of hope in those eyes is really worth mentioning.
"Han Zhengcheng really doesn't think about it anymore... Xuzhou has outstanding people. Not only are there outstanding people everywhere, but the girls are also very charming."
A stiff smile appeared on Han Hao's lips and he waved his hand towards the pottery merchant.
"Master Tao, please leave without seeing me off."
It seems that there is no chance at all.
Tao Shang hugged Han Hao's fists, and then slowly rode away with the large Chinese army.
Next to the pottery merchant was Huangfu Song's chariot escort. The old man opened the curtain and looked at the pottery merchant's rather lonely expression. He smiled and said, "Everyone has his or her own ambitions, so you don't need to be too pushy."
Tao Shang sighed softly and said: "After all, he is a talented person with both military and political skills. He is not partial to science at all. It is a pity that he cannot be used by me..."
Huangfu Song stroked his beard and said slowly: "Even if you are feeling sad, don't forget to send someone to pick up the master and others."
Of course the pottery merchant would not forget this, but his main purpose was to pick up Diao Chan, and as for Wang Yun... it was just an incidental gift.
The soldiers and horses came out of Baibo Valley and headed south to Hanoi. After picking up Wang Yun and others on the road, they turned east and went straight to the Yellow River ferry. After crossing the river, they headed for the border of Henan.
Diao Chan was overjoyed after meeting the pottery merchant, and she was so tender and sweet. She seemed to have infinite shyness and wanted to talk to him, but she just hindered the people around her by talking too much, and it was inconvenient for some of her words to be spoken in front of everyone.
The pottery merchant also sighed secretly. If it were in later generations, wouldn't the two of them be able to find a hotel to have a detailed discussion in this situation?
In the evil ancient times, apart from going home, there was no temporary place for people to do private things. How could I not be ashamed with the girls?
However, what surprised the pottery merchant was that the little Ying'er who followed Diao Chan could not get out of the carriage.
I don't know if it's fear or shyness.
I asked Diao Chan curiously, but Diao Chan didn't know the reason either. She just told the pottery merchant secretly that the child seemed to be extremely resistant to the Baibo army who had been subdued by the pottery merchant.
The potter didn't take it seriously.
There are so many bandits these days that many children are so frightened that they become incontinent when they hear about the Yellow Turban bandits. Compared to those who can't control their urination and urination, Xiao Ying'er's performance is already remarkable.
"Young Master, someone seems to be catching up with you... Are you still calling your name?" Pei Qian, who was following the pottery merchant, suddenly turned his head and looked around, and whispered to the pottery merchant.
The potter turned his head and saw a group of about ten cavalrymen galloping towards his direction. The leader... was surprisingly Han Hao.
The pottery merchant was overjoyed and hurriedly reined in the horse's head, turned around and headed back to meet him.
When he was young, he saw Han Hao and others arriving on flying horses and quarreling with Tao Shang and others.
"Han Zhengzheng, has he figured it out? Want to go back to Xuzhou with Tao?" The pottery merchant looked at Han Hao happily.
The scene in front of me feels a bit like Xiao He chasing Han Xin under the moon.
He didn't want to, but Han Hao shook his head vigorously and said: "No, I'm here... I want to ask Mr. Tao to delay a few more days and help me take charge of the overall situation."
"Presiding over the overall situation?" After hearing this, Tao Shang had an unpleasant premonition in his heart and said, "Could something have happened to Mr. Wangfu?"
Han Hao nodded heavily, with a look of pain on his face: "Prince Wangfu has been killed by foreigners. The current situation is complicated and Hao can't handle it alone, so I can only ask Mr. Tao to help me."
When the pottery merchant heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked and said: "Prince Fujun was killed by a foreigner? Who? The Huns?"
Han Hao sighed and said noncommittally: "This matter cannot be explained clearly in one sentence or two. It concerns Wang Fujun, Zhang Yang, Yuan Shao, the Southern Xiongnu and many other matters. Please ask Mr. Tao to transfer to the army and I will explain it clearly to you.
"
Tao Shang secretly sighed, he was about to leave Hanoi, but something like this happened.
Before the last battle of the attack on Baibo Valley, Wang Kuang left in a hurry after hearing about the Huns. He did not even personally take charge of such a big thing as wiping out the Baibo Army. At that time, the pottery merchant felt a little strange.
He knew that there must be some secrets between Wang Kuang and the Southern Xiongnu, but after all, it was Wang Kuang's private matter and it was not convenient for Tao Shang to inquire. Moreover, what he was thinking about at that time was how to subdue the more than 100,000 Baibo army.
Ding was not interested in the affairs between Wang Kuang and the Huns.
But at this time, the situation in Baibogu was known, and Wang Kuang died suddenly, and Han Hao came to him in person to ask for help, so the pottery merchant could not help but reconsider.
To be honest, the pottery merchant is not a person who wants to cause trouble, let alone take care of things that are not good for him, but this time the situation is different.
One is that Wang Kuang, one of the princes with Tao Qian, was killed. The other is that Hanoi is leaderless at the moment. Bao Xin has left, and the situation in Hanoi is currently in a chaotic rhythm. The third thing is because of Han Hao.
Wang Kuang died, and although Han Hao had a job in Hanoi, he was theoretically an ownerless person. Tao Shang's heart began to become active again.
Even the Taishan Army has become an army without a master at this moment!
"Han Zheng, it is inconvenient for so many Baibo people to move to Hanoi to camp. Why not, Tao will go back with you first, and these people will camp here temporarily. I hope Han Zheng can help provide more food and fodder for the work."
Assure."
At this moment, Han Hao was in a state of confusion. As long as the pottery merchant could help him, what else could he not do?
Han Hao kept vouching for his guarantee and said, "Master Tao, just rest assured! Hao has his own arrangements."
The pottery merchant immediately called Xu Chu and Mi Fang and said to them: "I have some things to do and I have to go back with the Han Dynasty. I will leave you here to control the Baibo army with Hu Cai. You two must remember to be careful and don't let anything happen."
The Bai Bo army took the opportunity to cause trouble and found an opportunity...I won't take more of the troops and horses that will accompany me back to Hanoi, so I will take 500 ordinary infantry back. The rest will be left to your control, so remember to be more careful."
Mi Fang and others nodded in agreement.
The pottery merchant was worried and said: "If you have anything to do, you can discuss it with Teacher Huangfu and Wang Situ. After all, they are both veterans in the court for many years. They should have unique insights into methods of control and understanding people's hearts."
Xu Chu frowned slightly, feeling quite worried: "A certain family is here to take charge, and you only lead five hundred people back. If something happens, who will protect you?"
Before Xu Chu could finish his words, he saw Xu Rong walking over slowly. Under the bronze mask, it was impossible to tell whether this guy was happy or angry. He looked like a ghost general coming out of hell.
It's so scary.
"As long as you stay here to assist General Mi and supervise the army, I will accompany the young master back."
Xu Chu glanced at Xu Rong cautiously.
Ever since Xu Rong put on this bronze mask, Xu Chu had never seen him take it off his face.
Every day I face a person who wears a mask and is cold and devoid of emotions. Even though Xu Chu's military strength is far superior to that of Xu Rong, looking at this person can't help but make people feel a little weak.
Your mother is so scary.
In fact, Xu Rong wore this mask just to cover his blinded eyes and damaged appearance. There was no other purpose.
But after all, not many people go out wearing masks every day.
And in the near future, Xu Rong will also get the strange title of "Ghost General" because he wears this bronze mask all year round, which makes people look like a ghost or a ghost.
A few years later, the Ten Southeast Armies of the Han Dynasty became famous. Xu Chu, the "Tiger Madman", and Xu Rong, the "Ghost General", each commanded one of the armies, and were collectively known as the Ten Heroes of the Southeast.
"In this case, a certain family has entrusted the young master to you. Remember to take good care of the young master so as not to cause any harm to the young master... He is your savior." Xu Chu told Xu Rong in a naive voice.
"Xiao's." Xu Rong simply said two words and nodded solemnly.
The pottery merchant smiled with satisfaction, then drove his horse to the car of Diao Chan and others, asked them to get out of the car, and explained the matter again.
Huangfu Song frowned after hearing this and said, "Shang'er, this matter is very important. Do you want me to accompany you for a while?"
Tao Shang thought for a moment after hearing this, then shook his head and said: "Teacher, let the students handle this matter on their own. After all, it involves foreigners. As ministers of the imperial court, the teacher and Wang Situ should not have anything to do with these matters.
intersection, so as not to fall into the facts."
Wang Yun nodded and said: "Yes, you are very considerate. Then I and Yizhen will follow the large team of people and wait for you to come back. You can finish the matter as soon as possible and come back as soon as possible."
Although Wang Yun's words were rigid and harsh, the potter could tell that the old man still cared about him very much. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little moved, and then said: "Wang Situ, don't worry, this matter is different from Baibogu, it will be easy to handle."
, Tao will come back as soon as he goes."
Diao Chan was about to speak at the side, but was directly interrupted by the pottery merchant, saying: "You can't go back either, stay here with Situ... This way I can do things with peace of mind."
Seeing the pottery merchant's firmness, Diao Chan knew that going back with him would burden him, so she said softly: "Then you come back earlier..."
After saying that, his face turned red, he bit his lip lightly, showing the shy look of a little girl.
Tao Shang secretly sighed... What a wonderful woman, but it's a pity that she doesn't know when she will be able to get her into his bowl.
Xiao Ying'er poked her head out of the car, stared with two big empty eyes, and shouted: "Master Tao, I'm waiting for you too..."
The potter nodded and said with a smile: "Help me take care of my two grandfathers and my sister and my wife. I will bring you sweets later."
When Xiaoying'er heard this, she nodded vigorously.
What a good child, but it’s a pity that I don’t know when I will be able to...
Thinking of this, the potter took another look at Xiao Ying'er's slightly horrified eyes and unattractive face, as well as a wisp of runny nose that had flowed down from unknown time...
Forget it, as long as she grows up and doesn't ask to come into my bowl.
