Chapter 176: Fists are the last word
After gritting his teeth for a long time and resenting for a long time, Cao Cao finally had to forcibly swallow the bitter water in his stomach. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
After hesitating for a moment, he took a deep breath and reluctantly sneered: "Pottery merchant, you want to make the radical general method lure Gu to fight, do you think that your carving insect skills can hide Lonely, Lone is not fooled by you, and the whole army is ordered, and those who dare to fight without permission will be killed immediately." β
Cao Cao's words forcibly suppressed the angry generals, forcing them to swallow their own bitter water and dare not call for war again.
"It's a wise move." Cheng Yu breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly complimented him.
Cao Cao's scorched face flashed a trace of bitterness that was not easy to detect.
Of course, Cheng Yu could see Cao Cao's thoughts, so he was relieved: "Although some soldiers were broken in this battle, they did not hurt their muscles and bones, in the final analysis, it is because of the threat of Xu Du, not that we are really not the opponent of the potters. β
Cao Cao nodded, his face looked much better, and Cheng Yu's words set up steps for him.
After being silent for a long time, Cao Cao's face had returned to gloomy and deep, he took a deep breath, and said with a brush: "Zhongde is reasonable, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, how can you mind, and order the whole army to withdraw from the camp and return to the west tomorrow, and when Gu settles down in the west, he will come to clean up the pottery thief." β
β¦β¦
Outside the enemy camp, the potter was stationed on his horse and holding his sword, sneering, waiting for Cao Cao to send troops.
He asked Fan Xu to rush to the enemy camp and shouted those words at Cao Cao, of course, to provoke Cao Cao and induce him to fight.
If Cao Cao sent troops in anger, he would fall into the hands of the potters, and he could lead this victorious army to calm the remnants of Cao's army.
stayed for a long time, but did not see the slightest movement in Cao Ying.
"Cao Cao is Cao Cao in the end, he is worthy of a generation of heroes, this endurance, admiration and admiration......"
The potter smiled and sighed, and raised his horsewhip, "Order the whole army, go back to Shixiaopei, and drink." β
Cao's camp was strong, Cao Cao did not take the initiative to attack, and the potters would not be in a hurry to attack.
At present, Cao Cao has lost nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses, the morale of the army has been greatly frustrated, Xu Du has been threatened by Liu Biao Zhang Xiu, the situation is extremely passive, and it is expected that he has only one way to retreat, and he can no longer play any tricks.
In this case, there is no need for the pottery merchant to fight with him anymore, just wait for him to return to the city to drink a little wine, and wait for Cao Cao's gray withdrawal of troops.
More than 10,000 high-spirited soldiers of the Tao Army turned around and headed east after a mockery towards the enemy who was cowering in the camp.
The pottery merchant rode his horse with his head held high, and under the gaze of tens of thousands of Cao Jun gritted his teeth, he walked away.
"Tick...... The system scans, and the host wins the attack and defense battle of Xiaopei, and obtains a charm value of 6, and the host's existing charm value is 61. β
6 charm points, the system elf is really rare and generous, it seems that Cao Cao is indeed a very powerful opponent, defeating him is much more than defeating Liu Bei Lu Bu and others.
The joy in the potter's heart, what made him happy was not just the charm value of 6 points.
In this battle, he defeated the powerful Cao Cao, killed nearly five or six thousand enemies, and captured more than four thousand enemy soldiers.
Tao captured the prisoners, and in this battle he also captured countless ordnance, enough to arm a team of more than 6,000 people.
More importantly, he fought against the enemy outside the country, and did not let Xuzhou be poisoned by the war again, but also broke the myth of Cao Cao's invincibility, eliminated the phobia of Xuzhou people, and established great prestige and popularity for himself.
You must know that in the name of avenging his father, Cao Cao entered Xuzhou several times, but no one could stop him, so that Tao Qian could only retreat in the city and dare not fight, and sat back and watched Cao Cao's blood wash Xuzhou.
Since that time, the spirit of Xuzhou people has been branded with two deep imprints of "fear of Cao".
Now, with his military strength inferior to his father's, the pottery merchant defeated Cao Cao, who had greatly increased his strength, and completed the almost impossible thing.
In addition to the great increase in prestige, winning Xiaopei is also a surprise.
Capture Xiaopei, is equivalent to closing the west gate of Xuzhou, Cao Cao's soldiers want to go deep into Xuzhou, they have to pass Xiaopei first, which is undoubtedly crucial to stabilizing the external environment of Xuzhou.
So after Cao Cao withdrew his troops and retreated westward, the potters left the veteran Lian Po and led 3,000 elite divisions to sit in Xiaopei and defend the northwest gate of Xuzhou for him.
Lian Po is not only extremely powerful, but also very good at commanding troops, and he is the only one to guard against an old and treacherous opponent like Cao Cao.
After arranging Xiaopei's stay, the potter took more than 10,000 male soldiers, with the prestige of victory, and the mighty class went down.
On the day when the soldiers and horses entered the city, the potter was treated with unprecedented courtesy, and the people of Xiapi spontaneously welcomed him back.
The potters who were standing on their horses, looking at the people kneeling on the side of the road, and listening to their words of praise from the mountains, the young people naturally felt a little proud in their hearts.
In addition to emotion, he was even more emotional.
You must know that whether it is Tao Qian, or later Liu Bei, or even Lu Bu, he has not been so supported by the people, but he has won the hearts of the people in Xuzhou in just a few months.
This made him understand more deeply that fists are the best weapon to win people's hearts.
He defeated Liu Bei first, then Lu Bu, and then miraculously repelled Cao Cao, and he proved with facts how strong his fists were, and only he could keep Xuzhou safe.
It is not so much that he won the hearts of the people of Xuzhou, but that he used his fists to subdue the people of Xuzhou.
After returning to Xuzhou, the first thing the potters did was naturally to have meritorious civil and military skills, and the second thing was naturally to train the new army.
After a few battles, from LΓΌ Bu, Liu Bei and Cao Cao, he captured more than 10,000 soldiers, and if all these soldiers were collected, plus the newly recruited soldiers, his army would reach 30,000 people.
In addition to training the soldiers, he had another thing to do, and that was how to place a person.
β¦β¦
On that day, the inner courtyard of the state capital.
The door was pushed open with a "creak", and the potter strode into the room.
Diao Chan, who was sitting on the edge of the couch and was dazed, looked up and saw the potter entering, and his face suddenly changed, and he subconsciously touched the dagger in his sleeve.
When she saw the potter walk in with a smile on his face, she thought that the potter was going to do what she wanted, maybe to forcibly defile her body, so she didn't think about it, and wanted to threaten her with death.
The potter smiled disdainfully, "Don't touch your dagger anymore, if I want to do something to you, there are means to make you obedient and submit, do you think that with a dagger, you can bluff me." β
Diao Chan's face changed slightly, and he had already held the dagger hand, and quietly pulled it out of his sleeve.
She was very smart, and naturally knew that the potter's words were right.
If the potter wants to do anything to her, he can take advantage of her unpreparedness, have someone take her dagger, tie her up, and then the potter can do whatever he wants, and torture her as much as he wants.
Her husband Lu Bu couldn't stop the young man in front of him, not to mention that she was just a weak woman and the small dagger in her hand.
"Potter, I think you are also a righteous gentleman, what do you want to detain me here?" Diao Chan asked calmly.
"I'll correct you one mistake first." The potter shook his fingers from side to side, and sneered: "My potter has never been a righteous gentleman, and I don't disdain to be a righteous gentleman. β
After saying this, Diao Chan was dumbfounded, and Xingyan looked at him in surprise.
Diao Chan can also be regarded as a person who has seen the world, what Situ Wang Yun, Taishi Dong Zhuo, Wenhou Lu Bu, which one is not a person in the world.
These people all have one thing in common, no matter what evil things they have done behind their backs, at least when they are in front of people, they will slander the great image of a righteous man and a gentleman.
Even Dong Zhuo, known as the butcher of Xiliang and famous for his brutality, is not exempt from vulgarity.
It is the first time in Diao Chan's life that someone actually regards being called a righteous gentleman as an insult to him, and directly regards himself as a real villain.
And, I'm proud of it!
"This person, what a strange person, it seems to be very different from the rumors......" Diao Chan's thoughts flew, his eyes showed confusion and confusion, and he looked at the potter with complicated eyes.
After a moment of dazing, Diao Chan came back from his trance, "Then you...... What do you want to do with me? β
"Don't worry, even if I want to do something to you, I will tell you in advance, I came here today just to take you to meet an acquaintance of yours, come with me."
The potter said, turned and walked away.
Diao Chan's body was shocked, and in his watery eyes, he reappeared suspicious, obviously unable to guess what acquaintances he could have here.
She was suspicious, but she didn't dare to disobey, after all, the potters still treat each other politely, and they must also know three points of interest, so as not to ask for hardship.
After a moment's hesitation, she followed with a light step.
She followed behind the potter, her eyes never left the pine-like back, and the thoughts in her mind flew around, echoing what he had just said, and her eyes faintly revealed curiosity.
"How can there be such a person in the world......"
In the flash of her thoughts, the potter had already taken her through a few turns and came to an attic, and the potter did not pass the word, so he pushed the door and entered.
"The concubine has seen Taozhou Mu." A woman's voice came from inside the door, and it was very familiar.
Diao Chan's heart was shocked, and he followed in a few steps, and the whole person was stunned in place in an instant.
The woman in the room is Lu Lingji.
And at this moment, the daughter of Lu Bu, who has always been extremely arrogant and has a strong personality, is bowing to the pottery merchant with a humble face, and even calls it "concubine".
Diao Chan was completely confused.
Diao Chan rubbed her eyes, she thought that she had seen it wrong, the woman in front of her was not her stepdaughter Lu Lingji.
What kind of person is Lu Lingji, that is Lu Bu's daughter, she has grown up in the army since she was a child, she is not afraid of heaven and earth, even when facing Lu Bu's father, she is often arrogant and unreasonable.
Under Lu Bu's command, from generals like Zhang Liao to that little pawn, who is not afraid of her, they have to walk around when they see her.
How could the eldest lady of the Lu family, who was so pampered and feared by others since she was a child, bend her proud knees and salute the enemy of the potter.
Moreover, the attitude is so humble, so cautious, as if he is very afraid of the potter, very afraid.
When Diao Chan looked at the woman carefully, she was sure that she was right, she was indeed Lu Lingji.
