At the same time that Hu Cai, the fifth master of Baibo Valley, was recruited by the potters, Guo Da and Li Le were running wildly on the road to Baibo Valley.

Li Le was hit by three arrows on his body, and blood seeped out of the wound, invading the padded jacket on his body bright red, but this guy was very strong, Rao was so, but he still stood tall, leading Guo Da to run desperately with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

His face turned pale from the bleeding, his lips trembled incessantly, and his breathing became heavier and heavier as he ran.

Not far from the rear, Xu Rong led a troop, following the two unhurriedly, shouting loudly but not moving, always keeping a certain distance from the two.

Following Xu Rong to lead the troops, Yang Zhan, a school captain who was promoted by the pottery merchants in Yangren City, this time Xu Rong led the troops to ambush the Baibo army in the village, and the pottery merchants were asked to be Xu Rong's helper and assist Xu Rong to jointly take charge of this Xuzhou army.

If he is replaced by another veteran captain, he may not be willing to obey Xu Rong's command. But Yang Zhan is different.

In the eyes of potters, Yang Zhan has always belonged to the kind of person who will come to things and have more eyesight, and this evaluation can be described as quite pertinent.

Although Xu Rong at this time belonged to the guest secretary of the Xuzhou Army in terms of identity, Yang Zhan could see that the eldest prince had great hopes for this Xu Rong, and Xu Rong was obviously very grateful to the potter's life-saving grace, and was now willing to use it.

If nothing else, it's only a matter of time before these two people get together.

Based on this, Yang Zhan showed a very strong respect for this guest general, he obeyed every one of Xu Rong's generals, and tried his best to help Xu Rong transfer troops, and Xu Rong's layout and scheduling performance in the village did show the demeanor of a generation of famous generals, so that the Xuzhou army almost effortlessly wiped out all the soldiers and horses of Guo Da and Li Le.

If it weren't for the potter's strict order, Guo Da and Li Le would basically end up in the Violent Corpse Wilderness at this moment.

"Xu Gong!" Yang Zhan hit the horse and followed Xu Rong's side, and said with a flattering smile: "Guo Da and Li Le can be regarded as running far enough now, we don't need to follow all the time!" We have wiped out all his subordinates this time, and Xu Gong can be said to be the first achievement! But after all, Guo Da was strictly ordered by the eldest prince to be let go, and Duke Xu should not delay the big thing because of greed for small profits. ”

The implication is to remind Xu Rong to obey the orders of the potter.

Xu Rong heard the overtone in Yang Zhan's words, knew that he was well-intentioned, and was quite grateful in his heart, and said with his forehead: "Thank you Captain Yang for mentioning it, although the captain can rest assured, Xu has been a general for many years, although he is only a lieutenant general, but he also understands the order of the general, and talks about the simple truth of respect and humility...... I followed that Guo Da this time, but I was not afraid that he would have an accident halfway and would not be able to return to Baibo Valley safely, but I had no other intentions. ”

When Yang Zhan heard this, Fang Cai suddenly realized, and secretly said that Xu Rong was not for merit, but for fear that Guo Da would have an accident on the way back, so he pretended to chase, but in fact he was secretly observing the arrangement.

Changing to others, it is just to obey the military orders of the pottery merchants, how can he be like Xu Rong, who understands it so thoroughly, and extends it up and down...... No wonder Tao Gongzi values him so much, he is indeed a character.

After figuring out the truth, Yang Zhan's attitude towards Xu Rong was a little more respectful, and said with a smile: "Xu Gong uses soldiers like this, he really has the posture of a famous general, and he admires it so much!" ”

"Appeal ——!"

Xu Rong didn't know why, suddenly grabbed the horse, and stretched out his hand to signal the soldiers and horses that followed him to stop, under the bronze mask, one eye narrowed slightly, as if something terrible had happened.

Yang Zhan and the others saw that Xu Rong suddenly stopped his horse, although they didn't know why, they didn't dare to slack off, and they hurriedly grabbed the horses, and the whole army stopped.

"Gong Xu, what's wrong?" Yang Zhan didn't know why, and asked suspiciously.

"Shh Xu Rong stretched out a finger, blocked his lips and made a "silence" gesture, and then pricked up his ears and listened carefully in place for a long time.

"Listen......" Xu Rong whispered to Yang Zhan: "There is the sound of horses' hooves...... And the sound of horses chattering...... Not only the northern horse, but also the prairie horse! ”

Yang Zhan frowned, and said strangely: "But I didn't hear anything?" ”

Xu Rong shook his head, closed his eyes and said, "Calm down and listen carefully!" ”

Yang Zhan learned from Xu Rong's appearance, but he also closed his eyes, shivering in the cold wind, while trying to listen to the so-called sound of horses in Xu Rong's mouth.

Faint ......

"Dada~~!"

"Gotta gotta gotta ~~!

"咴咴咴~~!"

"Oh oh oh oh ~~!"

Yang Zhan suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Xu Rong in surprise, and said, "It's really there!" Not only the sound of horses, but also the shouting of people?! What's going on? ”

Xu Rong raised his hand to straighten the bronze mask on his face, and slowly spoke, "Where is Captain Yang from?" ”

Yang Zhan was a little confused when he heard this question: "The last general will be from Wanling in Danyang County......

Xu Rongchang sighed and said, "So it's no wonder you don't know, you are from the south, and you are from the Great County Administration, so naturally you have never dealt with Huma......

When this sentence came out, it was like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, not only Yang Zhan, but also the other Xuzhou generals who followed were also a little panicked.

"Xu Gong's meaning, the voice of the right talent and the sound of the horses are...... Be...... Hu people? ”

Xu Rong nodded and said: "It shouldn't be wrong, I am from Xuanwu in Liaodong, and I have dealt with the Xianbei people and the horses they raised since I was a child...... It's not much different from each other. ”

Yang Zhan is a native of the south and has never dealt with the Hu people, he swallowed lightly when he heard this, his Adam's apple couldn't help rolling, and he said in a low voice: "Xu Gong, what are your plans?" ”

"I'll take a look!" Xu Rong frowned and said, "This is not the land of the Five Plains and the clouds, how can there be a large-scale Hu Renjia team?" I'm afraid that something is wrong, and I need to carefully verify it...... Captain Yang, you send a few people to continue to follow Guo Da to ensure that he can return to the tunnel safely, and I will lead people to the other side! ”

"No!"

……

……

After the Baibo army in Zhuangzi was defeated, the Xuzhou army changed its identity and role, one by one with its arms and sleeves, the corpses that should be carried out, and the wounded who should be treated, everything was carried out in an orderly manner, obviously after more than half a year of conquest, the battlefield experience of the 10,000 Xuzhou army has become richer and richer.

The potter brought Hu Cai back to his handsome tent, and ordered his subordinates to arrange wine and food, and even poured Hu Cai a glass of wine himself, which flattered Hu Cai.

"Brother Hu, I frightened you, if Tao has any inconsiderate hospitality, I hope you must be Haihan."

Unexpectedly, the potter's attitude towards himself changed so quickly, Hu Cai was a little confused, and he couldn't say a word, just nodded vigorously and said, "Don't dare, don't dare." ”

The potter returned to his desk, took a few mouthfuls of food and ate it for a while, looked up, but saw that the food in front of Hu Cai had not moved, and said suspiciously: "Brother Hu, our food is not to your taste?" ”

Hu Cai is not in the mood to eat any food at the moment, how big is his heart and still considers whether it is suitable for the taste? He was now thinking about his future.

After listening to the potter's question, he just nodded and said, "Yes, very much!" ”

The potter swept the food that Hu Cai had basically not touched, and said with a smile: "It's good to taste, eat more, and you have to hurry in a while." ”

"Hurry?" Hu Cai didn't understand the meaning of the potter's words, and said suspiciously: "What road?" ”

The potter took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "I have decided to send Brother Hu back to Zibo City." ”
