Xuzhou, in the city of Xiapi.
Tao Qian, who is already quite old, is walking in the mansion tremblingly with the support of his own son pottery merchant, and the old and strong spirit of the past has not appeared in Tao Qian, who is the lord of Xuzhou, for a long time. The falling sun emitted the last trace of afterglow, shining on the father and son who had no resemblance in the slightest, pulling out a long phantom, overlapping with the slow pace of the two. Tao Qian's cloudy eyes are like two muddy springs, quite godless in the eyes of outsiders, the eldest son Tao Shang, who is reckless and reckless, and always does some stupid things to destroy his own foundation, from time to time revealing a bit of regretful love.
"Dad, your plan is really amazing, whether Lu Bu sends troops or not, the final result will be to scatter his heart, expand his foundation, and attack from all sides, but there is no way to break it, but he can be regarded as a bad breath for his son!" With some suppressed joy on the pottery merchant's ugly face, he gently supported his father's arm, and whispered as if he was still a little uneasy: "But Dad, are you sure that Lu Bu will not send that Qin Xu to lead the Qingzhou soldiers?" That Qin Xu is Lu Bu's son-in-law, and he has some means, and according to the old gentleman, this guy is very trusted by Lu Bu, if he ......"
"Shang'er, you're still too young!" Tao Qian seemed to have known that the pottery chamber of commerce had this question, and patted the pottery merchant's arm holding his arm. With a somewhat wise tone, he said with a chuckle: "How Lu Buqi is, the world has a public opinion. If it was in Qingzhou, Qin Xu would control Lu Bu's entire army, and with the prestige of the name of the flying general that had accumulated for many years, Lu Bu might indeed not be suspicious of his half; But if you let that Qin Xu Xiaoxiao be worried inside and outside Qingzhou, he will be alone in command of the army that is no less than the army of his own troops, hum. It's not that his father looks down on Lu Bu, he doesn't have that belly yet! ”
"But what if it ......," the potter still didn't quite understand what Tao Qian meant, and asked hesitantly.
"No whatever!" Tao Qian interrupted the pottery merchant's speculation without hesitation. With his hands behind his back, he watched the last ray of light in the sky fade away, as if talking to himself, and said with a sneer: "Even father and son are close relatives, and they will definitely not allow this kind of appearance of the same thickness of branches." What's more, Qin Xu is just half of someone in Na Lu. Half a son! Hum! Lu Bu was less than forty years old. has newly accepted Cao Bao's daughter, and he will never tolerate that Qin Xu getting out of control! For the father's eyes have not been spent, when the siege of Xiapi was broken that day, it can be seen that these soldiers stationed in Xuzhou Qingzhou are all arrogant and brave soldiers, as long as time is given and strict training, it is no less than the elite of the world in my Xuzhou Danyang elite soldiers. It's for the Father, before he takes his last breath. I won't give it to anyone, anyone! So, my son is really worried! ”
"That's what my father said!" I don't know if it was the murderous aura that Tao Qian's words accidentally revealed, and finally showed his domineering as the lord of Xuzhou, after listening to Tao Qian's words, Tao Shang lowered his head uncomfortably, turned his eyes to the side that he didn't know what to think, and once again picked up Tao Qian's thin arm, and made a more and more deferential gesture, and said: "Fortunately, there is a father in Xuzhou, and these wolf ambitions around me don't want to touch my Tao family's Xuzhou step." It's just that, Dad, although Lu Bu is trapped by your clever plan, that Yuan Shu ......"
"Yuan Shu only has two counties, and his foothold in Yangzhou is unstable, and he can only commit a few remnants, and he is only acting for some grain and grass and military funds, and he does not mean that he is in Xuzhou Prefecture, so it is a small trouble, so he is not worried! Moreover, he had a lot of discord with Yuan Shao in Jizhou before, and he wanted to form an alliance with Gongsun Zan and his father several times, and he was a mortal enemy with Cao Cao of Yanzhou, and he would never easily form a mortal enemy with Xuzhou, and it was very easy to break, as long as he sent a man who could speak for his father to promise a little grain and grass, he could turn the enemy into a friend...... "Tao Qian didn't look at the potter's face, turned a blind eye to the potter's unnatural movements just now, gasped for a while, and said patiently: "Now Xuzhou's first thing to deal with is Qingzhou Lu Bu, and other things are just the disease of scabies." Shang'er, you are not young, but your qualifications are only Chinese, and you were humiliated by Qin Xu in Qingzhou a few years ago, and the military is not aspiring, so how can you rest assured that your father? I just hope that I can clear some obstacles for you in the future before you enter the ground, so as not to be ......"
"Report! Lord! Big Prince! There is news from Tanmalai to report Qingzhou! Tao Qian didn't finish speaking, he was disturbed by the general who suddenly broke in, sighed softly, and stopped talking.
"What to report, show it to me!" Tao Qian's words just now seemed to explain the aftermath, listening to the Tao merchant's ears, not relying on the sound of heaven, Tao Qian's physical condition Tao Shang Menqing, although he also felt grief in Tao Qian's heart when he was about to run out of oil and the lamp was dry, but just now Tao Qian's words about whether Lu Bu would let Qin Xu lead the troops alone, and the art of the Venerable Master who had no feelings to talk about was just right for the Tao merchant's appetite, and this worry about Tao Qian's situation at this time was also much lighter. Tao Qian, who was listening as if he knew everything about the future of Xuzhou, seemed to have something important to explain, but was interrupted by this exploration horse, seeing that Tao Qian had lost his sex, how could he not make the pottery merchant angry.
"No!" For the Tao family's father and son's frequent moodiness in recent times, the reason for this Tao family general is also a little known, seeing that the pottery merchant is angry, he did not dare to slack off, hurriedly arched a roll of silk silk with both hands, crossed the pottery merchant who had stretched out his hand, and ran to Tao Qian in small steps.
"Well, Shang'er, you can read it to your father!" Tao Qian didn't take the silk silk, motioned for the family to hand it to the pottery merchant, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said lightly: "Let my father know how Lu Qingzhou, who is known as the tiger of the world, broke this situation!" ”
"Yes, Dad!" The potter glared at the famous general fiercely, snatched the silk silk that the family would bow and raise above the top, shook it away angrily, and did not wait for the family general to retreat, so he read aloud: "Qingzhou Mulu, I have entrusted Qin to take charge of the seal of the general of Fenwu, and lead the Qingzhou soldiers, and Xu will be approaching soon...... Dad, what's wrong with you? ”
"Lu Bu! Lu Bu! How dare you...... Poof......" Just as Tao Shang finished reading the first sentence, Tao Qian's already trembling body was already shaking even more. Before the pottery merchant finished reading, Tao Qian suddenly erected his rickety old waist, and looked at the sky in disbelief. As if he had exhausted all his strength, he screamed, and a stream of blood mist erupted straight out, falling straight backwards. Fortunately, the general didn't have time to retreat, so he bowed his head and waited beside the father and son, and quickly helped Tao Qian to avoid Tao Qian from falling to the ground.
"Dad, you can't be okay. Father! That Qin Xu, that Lu Bu ......, how should I deal with Xuzhou? The potter was also confused by the sudden news. Said incoherently. Just now, his father Tao Qian also swore that Lu Bu would never take this only one to "bring about his own destruction" to crack this way of yang scheme, how many breaths of work has it been? As a result, Lu Bu really did what Tao Qian said was absolutely impossible. Perhaps in Tao Qian's eyes, Lu Bu, a powerful neighbor in Qingzhou, is the great enemy of the world. In the eyes of potters. Because of the shadow left in the valley of Lishan, Qin Xu, who can't write and can't mention martial arts, is the strongest threat, not to mention that according to the news from the "friends" of Qingzhou, Lu Bu not only gave Qin Xu the right to command the Qingzhou soldiers, but even handed over the seal letter of the Fenwu general before serving as Qingzhou Mu to Qin Xu, what does this mean? What kind of branch theory, what kind of father and son hurt each other, it is clear that everything that his father just deduced has become a nonsense. How can this make Tao Shangqing, who is so easy to get back some confidence?
"The old man is fine, and the merchant stays. For the rest, retire ...... Retire! Tao Qian, who was driven by everyone and was on his side, easily gasped for breath, and barely stood up with his shoulders holding the potter's shoulders, his face was pale and a little flushed, and he commanded himself.
"This ...... My lord, your body is important, so hurry up and summon the doctor! Among the people who came, the bold general just came out with a word of concern, but he was glared at by Tao Qian, who did not appreciate it at all, stopped talking, and bowed his head and left with the rest of the people.
"Shang'er...... Cometh near, and have something to say to you for the Father. Tao Qian stood tall and thin, until all the generals were gone, then he breathed a sigh of relief, and could no longer hold it as if his whole body trembled, looking at the pottery merchant who was stunned, as if he had made some kind of determination, gritted his teeth and said: "Since the only flaw planned for my father this time has been solved by Lu Bu's house, it has become impossible to trap Qingzhou, and the current plan is to take advantage of the fact that Qin was ordered to take charge of the Qingzhou soldiers, and there must not be many opportunities to bring soldiers and horses here. However, this matter cannot be brought forward by me Xuzhou, in this way, you send henchmen, no, you personally evade the defense of the Qingzhou soldiers, and go to the Yuan Shu military camp overnight, saying that we want to use the grain and grass in Guangling County as a bargaining chip, and confuse Yuan Shu to promise to use the road to kill the people! ”
"Dad, this, can this work?" The potter was really frightened by his father's crazy plan, swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and said: "I had to use a trick to make Lu Bu enter the palace before I let Yuan Shu and his servants go to Pi and Guangling counties, which was already showing weakness to Yuan Jun and boosting his arrogance. If Yuan Shu had a suspicious heart, pretended to agree, and took the opportunity to take advantage of the Tao to not stop Qin Xu, but instead waved his army to attack Xiapi, wouldn't it have given Lu Bu the reputation of righteousness out of thin air, not to mention, even the previous Lu Bu thieves embezzled my Xuzhou and the two places that were robbed of military funds by Kan Xuan's rebel thieves, wouldn't it be over? ”
"My son can say this, it is very gratifying for my father!" When Tao Qian saw Tao Shang say this, his eyes finally showed a little relief, he shook his head and said patiently: "I don't know about Yuan Shu's person, this person has always been chivalrous and frivolous. He is the same brother as Yuan Shao of Jizhou, and belongs to the Yuan family of the fourth and third dukes. This time Yuan Shao and Gongsun Bogui fought in Hebei, there was an alliance with Bogui, and there was an attack on Yanzhou, and finally Yuan's allies Cao Cao and Liu Biao were sandwiched by each other, and Yuan Shu's old nest Nanyang was taken away, so that Yuan Shu stood alone between Huaisi, in the place where Cao Cao and Liu Biao watched, if there was a goodwill for the father of this Bogui ally, and did not care about the matter of Xuzhou, and there were so many military rations funded, and the one who was attacked was Cao Cao's ally Lu Bu's army, which had a hatred of destroying his family, according to Yuan Shu's temperament, he would surely readily agree, will not be so confused as to refuse Xuzhou's goodwill and make enemies on all sides. But my son must be careful not to divulge the slightest bit of information, lest he hinder his father's plan. ”
"What? Does my father still have a backup hand to deal with Lu Bu? The potter was dizzy by Tao Qian's explanation of the current situation, but when he suddenly heard what Tao Qian said, he suddenly asked in surprise.
"Not bad!" Tao Qian's sickly flushed face flashed with a hint of madness, and he said with a sneer. (To be continued......)
