Guo Jia's words made Bao Tao suddenly enlightened, and he admired Guo Jia and the potter's skills even more.
The so-called internal and external cooperation has always been a tacit understanding of two people, who are at the same time as each other, working closely together, one pretending to be the other and cooperating, which is used as a means to conceal the truth.
However, Tao Shang and Guo Jia's style of fighting is obviously not the same as that of normal people.
The ambush plan set up by the pottery merchant was not told to Guo Jia in advance, but Guo Jia relied on his own skills and years of understanding of the pottery merchant to actually crack it for him?
How brave does it take to do this?
How shameless do you have to be to do this? He was not afraid that the pottery would kill him afterwards.
Of course, how close of a relationship does this have to be for this to be possible?
From ancient times to the present, there is really no one who can kick his own lord in private.
However, Bao Tao and Bao Zhong didn't know the pottery merchant very well. Whether the pottery merchant cleans up Guo Jia or not does not depend on Guo Jia's behavior, but entirely depends on whether Prime Minister Tao is in a good mood.
After all, the short crossbow that You Donzi used to shoot through Guo's bun is still hanging high in the middle of the hall of the school affairs office.
…
After a full day of fierce fighting, Cao Jun's offensive retreated. The pottery merchant counted his troops and horses, reorganized the camp, and began to collect and listen to the battle reports from all parties.
In terms of the main camp, Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun successfully repelled Pang De and Yan Xing. Although the enemy troops were brave and good at fighting, under the command and persistence of these two fierce generals, they still could not get past the Lei Chi, and in the end they were defeated.
.
But victory still comes at a price. Huang Zhong suffered some minor injuries in the fight with Pang De, but it did not hinder major events.
As for the situation on other routes, the soldiers and horses responsible for defending the Puyang route and the Xuchang route all returned with great victories. Especially the battle between Lu Bu and Li Jue and Guo Si can be said to be a milestone battle for him to regain his reputation. Li Guo
The two soldiers and horses were defeated by Lu Bu, and no one in the old Xiliang army could stop Lu Bu.
This battle not only restored Lu Bu's reputation and allowed Lu Wenhou to regain his reputation, but it also made him vent his anger.
However, the news brought back by Zhang He and Gao Lan made people a little surprised, and at the same time, it also made everyone have a new understanding of the ability of Cao Ren, the general left behind by Chen.
Such a big thing happened, but this guy didn't even send out a single soldier. He just stayed in Chenliu City without moving.
Cao Ren can really hold back.
After listening to the battle reports brought back by the people, the potter let the generals go down to rest, and then he walked around in the tent.
Cao Cao's soldiers and horses came with anger, while Cao Ren's soldiers and horses were huddled in the city and could not come out. The commanders of both sides were not efficient lamps. For a while, the pottery merchant really had no particularly good way to deal with the matter.
"Is there any news from Guo Fengxiao now?" Tian Feng asked him from the side, looking at the rather embarrassed pottery merchant.
The potter shook his head and said: "Judging from the current situation, there is no news for the time being."
Tian Feng sighed and said: "Cao Cao comes with great momentum, Prime Minister, don't be too anxious. According to this situation, we must be prepared for a protracted war with him this time."
The potter took a deep breath and wandered back and forth, quietly running through recent events and situations in his mind.
Tian Feng looked at the pottery merchant and asked curiously: "What is the Prime Minister thinking about?"
The pottery merchant smiled while thinking: "I was wondering if there is any special situation that we can take advantage of. I always feel that I have been busy arranging troops and formations recently, and I have forgotten something important."
He walked back and forth in the tent, wondering to himself as he walked: "What happened? I ignored it."
Tian Feng looked at him and couldn't help but shook his head and whispered: "This kid is crazy."
After saying that, the old man picked up the glass on the table and prepared to take a sip of water to moisten his throat.
It happened that the pottery merchant walked up to him and suddenly recalled something. He clapped his hands heavily and said nonsense: "By the way, that's what happened. I almost forgot! You're so stupid!"
It didn't matter that this exclamation made Tian Feng next to him so frightened that he suddenly choked on the water in his lungs.
"Cough cough cough cough cough!" Tian Feng coughed hard and beat his chest.
The pottery merchant walked up to Tian Feng, caressing his back behind him, and comforted him: "Mr. Yuan Hao is old and has poor immunity. He needs to pay more attention to taking care of himself in the future... Look, drink some water."
Sprinkle it all over your body, and Alzheimer’s disease will be nothing more than that.”
Tian Feng turned to look at the pottery merchant angrily, panting and saying, "I have a strong body! I just wanted to scare you!"
Tian Feng wiped the water stains on his body with his hands and said, "You just said you remembered something? Are you so excited?"
The potter said seriously: "I remembered it. If I remember correctly, when Mrs. Ding and Mrs. Bian were brought back to Xuchang City, I once heard Mrs. Ding say something meaningful... It seemed to be something, even if
Even though I am an outsider, I am better than some of my own family members...and when Bian Fu heard this, his face was not very good."
Tian Feng was confused when he heard this: "Who is Mrs. Ding? Who is Mrs. Bian?"
"She is Cao Cao's wife." Tao Shang said nonchalantly: "It seems that I will have to bring Mrs. Ding here from Xuchang later."
Tian Feng was stunned when he heard this, and then showed an angry look on his face.
"A high-ranking official in the imperial court actually cares about other people's wives! He even went out of his way to bring someone to the camp... It's simply, it's so offensive! I really misjudged you!"
The pottery merchant looked at Tian Feng's cheeks that were the color of pig liver due to suppressing his emotions, and was speechless.
Why is this old man so dirty in his thoughts? I called Cao Cao's wife to the military camp just to do that kind of thing?
Are all cultural people’s thoughts this innate?
…
After finally explaining it to Tian Feng, the pottery merchant sent someone to call Hou Cheng and asked him how he captured Mrs. Ding, Mrs. Bian and others.
Hou Cheng narrated the matter to the pottery merchant, and then said: "The general guessed at that time that Mrs. Ding and Mrs. Bian should have been abandoned by Cao Pi. The general said this idea at that time, and Mrs. Bian cried on the spot.
…”
The pottery merchant walked up to Hou Cheng, stared at him and said, "Why didn't you explain such an important link to me at the beginning?"
Hou Cheng was speechless and said: "I, as soon as I returned to the camp, I was ordered to be beaten with a stick by the Prime Minister. My butt has just recovered. How can I still remember this?"
The potter raised his eyebrows: "Then you think I hit you wrongly?"
Hou Cheng said with a mournful face: "Then the Prime Minister thinks he got it right?"
Tao Shang was silent for a moment and said: "Well, the punishment last time was indeed too much. Cao Zhi's death is not your problem. Next time something like this happens, it's better not to use corporal punishment. It's not healthy."
Hou Cheng was overjoyed when he heard this: "The Prime Minister is so wise!"
"Next time, we will fine you directly and cash it on the spot."
