It's blatantly bluffing...it's not scary at all to be pretentious.
Tao Shang sighed: "General Bao, we are an alliance, allies in the fight against national traitors. I, Tao Shang, represent the governor of Xuzhou... Just because he questioned whether the leader of the alliance was right or wrong, he was going to be hanged on the camp gate? Then leader Yuan
Is the majesty of the car a bit too heavy? Tao can’t figure out whether I’m here to save him or to flatter Yuan’s family?”
Bao Xin was silent for a while, then suddenly patted the pottery merchant on the shoulder and sighed: "You are a weak young man, but you can still understand these righteousness and principles, but it is a pity that Bao and his colleagues are all addicted to dreams... It is really disappointing.
It’s so chilling.”
"General Bao just tolerates it like this?" The pottery merchant raised his eyebrows.
Bao Xin shook his head and said: "What can I do if I can't bear it? The alliance leader is unwilling to pursue and just stands aside, but what can I, Bao Xin, do?"
Upon hearing this, Tao Shang sighed and said: "The leader is the leader, and the general is the general. If the leader does not want to send troops, it is okay, but if the general wants to save the country, why must he follow the wishes of the leader? The general is here to save the Han Dynasty.
He is not here to be a pawn for the Yuan family."
Bao Xin snorted and said: "What you said is really bold... Boy, you came here to talk about me today, but it's your own wish? Who is the person behind the scenes? Is it Cao Mengde's guy... Hehe, this old man
The boy is really good at beating him up."
Tao Shang said calmly: "It was General Cao's idea, and it was also my own idea."
"Oh, what do you mean?" Bao Xin was quite curious.
Tao Shang replied calmly: "Young man has gathered all the soldiers and horses of the Xuzhou Army and is ready to march westward with General Cao at any time to pursue Dong Zhuo."
After hearing this, Bao Xin's expression suddenly froze: "You?"
Tao Shang nodded and said: "Yes, and it's not just me, but also the governor of Peiping, Gongsun Zan, Liu Gong Liu Xuande, the governor of Changsha, Sun Jian, Sunfujun, and the Chenliu governor, Zhang Miao, Zhangfujun."
This statement is obviously a bit bragging.
Cao Cao is now looking for Liu Bei and Zhang Miao in person. He is still in doubt about whether he can move them, but it is still clear that Sun Jian has nothing to do with this matter...
However, if the matter is urgent, the only option is to use it to scare people.
"You... aren't you afraid of being blamed by the alliance leader?" Bao Xin's face turned red and white, seeming hesitant.
The pottery merchant spoke without mercy at this moment.
"It's a joke. My father sent me here to suppress thieves and save King Qin! I'm not here to lead someone's horse to fall. If he saves your majesty, I, the pottery merchant, will respect him and be willing to sacrifice my life.
He will do his best...if he has other selfish motives and hesitates to move forward, why can't we, the loyal and righteous people, go and save His Majesty on our own? Are the royal laws in this world all determined by those with the surname Yuan?"
When Bao Xin heard this, he couldn't help but sigh.
"The younger generation is like this. Bao has been living in Han Dynasty for many years, but he is... all..."
How is everything going?... Bao Xin was a little lacking in words and could not find suitable adjectives for a while.
The pottery merchant saw that Bao Xin was feeling uncomfortable, so he kindly said to Bao Xin: "Mr. Bao wants to say: But it was all eaten into the dog's belly, right?"
Bao Xin's face turned red. Although the pottery merchant helped him add the words, this metaphor was very inconsistent with Bao Xin's current state of mind.
Seeing Bao Xin's embarrassed look, the potter shrugged and turned his head away. For a moment, he seemed to be very interested in the night scenery around him.
After a long time...
Bao Xin slowly said: "Master Tao, you have said so many profound and righteous words to Bao, just tell me what you want Bao to do!"
Tao Shang rubbed his nose: "This time we are chasing Dong Zhuo's army and rescuing the emperor, we need to gather more troops to be safe... General Cao and I are running around to recruit loyal people to join us, and I want to invite General Bao to come and sit down.
A top chair..."
When Bao Xin heard this, the muscles in his face couldn't help but twitch.
This kid is so incompetent in speaking. They go out together to fight together. What does it mean to sit in a top position? This kid thinks he is born as the second best guy?
What a good thing, he described it like a bandit who formed a gang and turned into a bandit!
I don't know what Cao Cao liked about him, so he was so close and respected.
"Master Tao, please go back and tell Cao Mengde that the emperor is in trouble and he is the only loyal minister of the Han family. I, Bao Xin, will gather my troops and go with him! I will not return to the army until you rescue your majesty!"
The pottery merchant gave a thumbs up: "The general is really a brave general, he is so majestic!"
"Forget it, you don't mean what you say. In the metaphor just now, you didn't compare Bao to a bear and a tiger."
…
…
Bao Xin was still loyal to his core and was loyal to the emperor. Yuan Shao's attitude of standing still made him unhappy. However, because the princes all responded to Yuan Shao, Bao Xin could not say anything and could only hold it back. Tao Shang was just in a suitable position.
At the right time, I just gave him a simple behavioral guide.
If it were Yuan Shu, the potter's talk would be in vain.
But after convincing Bao Xin, Tao Shang was a little confused about the next person to convince.
Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian... has to deal with him again.
Although during daytime observation, Tao Shang saw that Sun Jian in Yuan Shao's commander's tent had his eyes closed all the time, as if he was deaf to the conversations and quarrels between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, but Sun Jian was not as obvious as Bao Xin.
manner.
Tao Shang felt that Sun Jian must have some special ideas, but he was not sure what he was thinking about... After all, Sun Jian was different from Bao Xin.
At least Bao Xin gave Tao Shang the feeling that he was generally loyal and righteous; but for Sun Jian, Tao Shang dared to conclude that this person had something to do with loyalty and righteousness just because he dared to go all the way north and defeat various minor governors and governors.
'These two words are not very similar.
In the handsome tent during the day, Sun Jian closed his eyes like an old monk in meditation. What was the purpose of this?
The pottery merchant couldn't figure it out, but now he didn't have more time to think about it, so he could only hurry up and test Sun Jian's tone first.
Sun Jian's camp was not too far from Bao Xin, but it was not too close either.
Before he arrived, but just watching from a distance, the potter felt that the air was a bit dull and oppressive.
Squinting his eyes, he could see that there were many sentry posts around Sun Jian's camp, and the patrols were extremely heavily guarded. They still maintained a murderous aura, which made people feel heart-stopping.
"Pei Qian, go over and report my name to the guard at the gate." The opponent is Sun Jian. Tao Shang did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly asked the eldest of the four brothers of the Pei family to go over and inform him.
Pei Qian rode away in response, and when he came to the camp gate, he saw that the patrolling soldiers were all standing in order, pointing their halberds forward, and all the sharp cold light was aimed at Pei Qian!
The soldiers holding halberds had expressionless faces, solemn and solemn, and they didn't know what they were thinking about.
Even after Pei Qian joined the Tiger Guards and went through Xu Chu's long training, he was still not used to seeing such formations.
However, he was still a bold man after all. He braced himself and shouted at the soldiers: "This is the Xuzhou Military Supervisor, Pei Qian, the bodyguard under the command of the eldest son, Tao Supervisor! I was ordered to come here to deliver a message. Tao Supervisor came here overnight to ask for help."
I’m paying a visit to Sun Fujun, the prefect of Changsha, and I’d like to ask you to report it on your behalf!”
Among the patrolling soldiers, one soldier put away his halberd and straightened it, turned around and ran towards the camp. However, the other halberd-bearing soldiers did not even move. They still stood upright with their halberds, their eyes always focused.
Not even an inch away from Pei Qian's body.
Tao Shang's goosebumps dropped as he watched from behind. He turned to Pei Guang, Pei Jing and others who were guarding him behind him and said, "I can't see that your brother has indeed made great progress. Facing this kind of battle, you don't even care.
Taking a step back will give our Xuzhou Army some face."
The fourth child, Pei Ben, said in a naive voice: "I don't think so. I know my eldest brother best. He may be so scared that he can't walk. I might have peed his pants now."
The pottery merchant wanted to criticize Pei Ben, who had destroyed his own prestige. At this moment, he saw the halberdier who had gone in running out. Behind him was a mighty and majestic man with a thick and thick beard.
, almost covering the chest, and the whole body was tightly wrapped in armor.
For someone to be able to wear such an exquisite piece of iron armor, it shows that he has a high status in Sun Jian's army.
"Where is Mr. Tao? Who is Mr. Tao?" The big man raised his voice and shouted.
The potter rode his horse forward, came to the camp gate, turned over and dismounted, and said with a smile on his forehead: "That's it."
"The last general is Huang Gai, the commander of another department under the command of Grand Administrator Sun! I have been ordered by my lord to come to greet Mr. Tao!... Mr. Tao, please come in!"
