Chapter eight hundred and sixty-six said that Zhao Fan surrendered
Crouching dragons and phoenixes are fighting each other head-on, but right now there are tigers and tigers on the side, plotting secretly.
Sima Yi's skill is indeed worthy of the title of "Zhonghu".
The potter looked up at the top of the tent, quietly thinking about the pros and cons.
Finally, he decided to use Sima Yi's strategy.
This may be the fastest path to the current battle in Jingnan.
"Here, please come over, Mr. Ma Liang."
Not long after, Ma Liang came to the handsome tent.
The pottery merchant immediately asked him about Zhao Fan.
Ma Liang said: "I don't know Zhao Fan very well, but before he took office as the governor of Guiyang, he did not have a great reputation or outstanding achievements. After Zhang Xian's death, Liu Biao left him.
As the governor of Guiyang County, I think he could get this high position as governor, but it is indispensable for him to have a smooth relationship with Liu Biao back then. If such a mediocre person really wants to join me, I say it is not impossible to surrender him."
The potter thought for a while and said: "In this case, Lao Jichang will go again. You tell Zhao Fan that as long as he is willing to surrender to me, I can let him continue to serve as the governor of Guiyang... Oh, no,
If he is willing, it is not impossible to assign him to some good and wealthy counties to serve as guardians, as long as he is willing to recognize the situation."
Ma Liang cupped his hands and said, "I understand what the Prime Minister means, so I'll do it now."
…
Move to Lingcheng.
"Ah~~!"
In the room, Zhang Fei let out a painful howl.
Pang Tong stood outside the room, frowning as he listened. He was pacing back and forth, and suddenly stopped.
But the door to the room opened, and a medical officer came out with a sigh.
Pang Tong hurriedly stepped forward and asked him: "How is General Zhang's injury?"
The medical officer shook his head bitterly and said: "General Zhang's injury is quite serious. The arrowhead has been pulled out, but the arrowhead is very deep into the abdomen. The injury is really serious. I am afraid that he will not be able to stand up again in a short time."
"
When Pang Tong heard what the medical officer said, his hope suddenly diminished. He had hoped that if Zhang Fei was not seriously injured, he could use him to attack the potters again.
But now Zhang Fei is seriously injured and cannot get up, and there is no other general among the three armies who can assume the role of an army's courage. If he continues to fight with the pottery merchant, he will not be able to gain any advantage.
Pang Tong was very distressed. If he persisted like this, the soldiers of Tao Shang's army who were harmed by the miasma would slowly recover one by one, and the consequences would be disastrous.
But right now, he doesn't have any good ideas.
…
Pang Tong was anxious, but Tao Shang was even more anxious than him, because from Pang Tong's point of view, he was worried about the gains and losses of Jingzhou. As long as Jingzhou was protected, they had nothing else to worry about.
But Tao Shang is different. His eyes can't just focus on Jingzhou. He also has a great enemy in Guanzhong, Cao Cao.
Although the pottery merchant also deployed troops and horses in Wancheng, he still felt uneasy. After all, his opponent was Cao Cao, and that man could do anything.
But it's useless for him to worry now, he just has to wait, wait, and wait.
As time went by, the soldiers in the military camp who had been poisoned by the miasma began to gradually improve, and the entire military camp gradually regained its vitality.
The combat power is constantly increasing, and from the perspective of the pottery merchant, this means that his side will regain the situation bit by bit.
The day of counterattack...is coming!
At this moment, Ma Liang had already rushed back.
He told the pottery merchant how he went to Guiyang to persuade Zhao Fan.
The process went relatively smoothly. Although Zhao Fan was a bit pretentious at first, it was just a price-waiting move. Ma Liang's eyes were so cunning that he could see through Zhao Fan's little thoughts at once.
After a brief exchange, Zhao Fan finally agreed to Ma Liang's persuasion to surrender and came to see the pottery merchant in person.
Unexpectedly, Ma Liang acted at such a speed, and the pottery merchant was very satisfied.
A famous person in the world is a famous person in the world, and the efficiency of doing things is different from that of ordinary people.
Not only did he say that he surrendered Zhao Fan, he even brought his people to him.
A few days later, Zhao Fan passed through Changsha and arrived at the pottery merchant's military camp on the front line.
As soon as he met Zhao Fan and took a quick look at Zhao Fan's appearance, the pottery merchant felt that he was a flattering and flattering villain.
But no matter what kind of person he is, he is very important to today's pottery merchants. His actions alone can represent the direction of the entire Guiyang County.
The pottery merchant warmly received Zhao Fan: "Zhao County Governor is able to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and escape from the filthy muddy road. He really understands righteousness and is worthy of being a loyal and good minister of the Han Dynasty."
Zhao Fan hurriedly said: "I have admired the reputation of the Prime Minister for a long time. Fan has long wanted to find an opportunity to join him, but he has always been unable to find a way. It is truly a lifetime blessing to meet the Prime Minister today. It is really a mercy from heaven that the people of Guiyang County can take refuge in the Prime Minister. Fan is right."
I can’t thank you enough for the Prime Minister’s benevolence and righteousness.”
"You are so polite, Governor Zhao. Don't worry! Tao will never treat you badly. Come on, let's go into the tent and talk!"
The two of them walked into the handsome tent. Tao Shang ordered people to bring food and wine, and the two of them talked while eating.
Zhao Fan ordered his entourage to bring up a wooden tray with thick slips listed on it.
"What is this?" The pottery merchant pointed doubtfully.
Zhao Fan hurriedly said: "This is Guiyang County's household registration, land register, tax list of each county, etc. I will bring them here for the Prime Minister's review today."
Tao Shang looked at it quietly for a while, and then said to Zhao Fan: "Tao already knows the sincerity of Governor Zhao, but when I asked Ji Chang to recruit the Governor, I asked him to bring a message to the Governor.
, the land of Guiyang will still be presided over by the county governor in the future. Of course, after Jingzhou is restored, if Duke Zhao wants to see other wealthy places and serve as the governor, there is nothing wrong with it."
After saying this, Zhao Fan was overjoyed. He nodded and bowed his head to thank the potter, while looking at the potter up and down. His mind seemed to be running rapidly, weighing something.
The traitorous look on Zhao Fan's face could not escape the pottery merchant's eyes. He raised his eyebrows and said, "What is Governor Zhao thinking about?"
Zhao Fan said in a low voice: "I have an unkind sentiment. I wonder if the Prime Minister can agree to it?"
The pottery merchant wondered: "What's going on?"
Zhao Fan showed a flattering smile: "My brother died young, leaving only a widowed sister-in-law. My sister-in-law was beautiful and virtuous, but unfortunately she was not blessed and became a widow. Fan once advised her to remarry, but my sister-in-law once said...
"
Tao Shang rolled his eyes and said, "Your sister-in-law once said that you will never marry unless you are a hero in the world, right?"
Zhao Fan was stunned for a moment.
This was the draft he had just made, so why did the potter guess it all of a sudden?
"The Prime Minister is a true god and man, and that's exactly what it is! As I see it now, there is no more hero in the world than the Prime Minister. Since the Prime Minister is so kind and righteous to me, Fan Ziran cannot be ashamed of the Prime Minister. He is willing to offer his sister-in-law in front of the Prime Minister's army. Please, Prime Minister
I wonder what the Prime Minister wants to do with paper chatting to relieve silence?"
