Yanzhou Cao Ying's troops came very quickly, only in the second day of the news into Xiapicheng, they had already entered the boundary of Xuzhou, holding high the plain white banner of "revenge and hatred", they all lit up their blades, and the murderous spirit rushed straight to Xiaohan, but there was really a bit of a situation where the people of Xuzhou swore not to stop. And the people in the area where Xu and Yu are in the handover area, because of Kan Xuan** and the resurgence of the Xuzhou Yellow Turban, have fled to Xiapi City for refuge, but they have also escaped this unwarranted catastrophe.

In Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian's house, because Tao Qian had been unconscious after fainting at the city gate, the group of doctors was helpless, and the group of "dragons" had no leader, and they were in a mess. As the initiator of this matter, the eldest son of the potter, after easily remembering Zhang Min, who was locked up in the house by himself, and found that his "body" was missing, everything understood. It's just that the matter has come to this point, even if he lends the potter a brain, there is no way to recover, this ordinary and extremely arrogant Tao Gongzi can only kneel in front of Tao Qian's sickbed, the whole person seems to have lost his soul, and he doesn't say a word.

"Big brother, did you do this?" The second son, Tao Ying, did not have an elegant posture at this time, and the white silk handkerchief that he was holding in his hand had long been gone, and this time Tao Qian became in such a state after hearing the news, and the Tao merchant had such a desperate look, even a fool could see that there must be something wrong with Tao Qian and Tao Shang in the middle, Tao Ying had a gloomy and handsome face, knelt in front of Tao Qian's collapse, and asked in a low voice.

"This ...... How is this possible? The potter still wanted to quibble, but Tao Qian, who was unconscious on the bed, the chaotic situation in Xiapi City, and the strength of Cao Ying's troops, who could be killed at any time, could not help the potter's arrogant surname, under Tao Ying's forced gaze, the toad's eyes turned a few times, and finally he looked flustered, and said cowardly and intermittently: "It was indeed not me who did it, it was that Zhang Hong, yes, it was the thief who did it!" No one would have imagined that the person Zhang Min provoked this time turned out to be the father of Cao Ying in Yanzhou, and when I told my father about it, I learned that the person who died at his hands was actually ......"

"Could it be that my father fell ill last time, or because of this?" For the pottery merchant at that time, it had been confirmed that Cao Ying's father "died" at the hands of Zhang Min, and he could still not take this matter to heart at all as if he was fine, and he didn't know if this big brother was brainless or brainless! At that moment, he gasped for breath, and said to the potter angrily: "What about Zhang Minren? Where is it now? Do you already know the identity of that person? Has it been cleaned up? ”

"That Zhang Min didn't know about ......" The potter mentioned this, frowned and showed a look of chagrin on his face, raised his hand fiercely and slapped himself, and said curtly: "Originally, my father ordered me to get rid of Zhang Min as soon as possible to prevent future troubles, but I remembered his many years of credit, and prepared poisoned wine to leave him a whole corpse!" Who would have thought that this guy would be fine after drinking the poisoned wine in front of me, and deceived me by cheating! At that time, my father was sick, and I saw that the thief had no breath, so I didn't care anymore, who would have thought...... Alas......"

"Isn't it my good brother, after you drank the poisonous wine of the thief, in order to show off that the thief was fighting to the death, you told him the true idea of the matter as soon as your mind was hot, and then I didn't expect that he didn't die after drinking the poisonous wine, and then there is this now, right?" Tao Ying looked at his own wonderful big brother as if he was looking at a fairy, he really didn't expect that the many disasters in Xuzhou now would come from the hands of his own family in front of him.

"This, I, who would have thought that this Zhang Min would actually drink ......" The pottery merchant wanted to quibble, but Tao Ying interrupted: "This is just a small trick, with Zhang Min's previous identity, it is not surprising that there is such a method!" Forget it, now that the matter has happened, Cao Ying is about to come to the city, so let's think about how to solve it! ”

"Yes, yes, solve, second, no, second brother, you have been smart since you were a child, and the eldest brother is not as good, you should think about any way to deal with this matter! Big brother will always remember your good, Xuzhou, yes, if Xuzhou can avoid this difficulty, after my father wakes up, my eldest brother will definitely recommend you to take over my father's position in front of my father, I am willing to withdraw to assist you, absolutely! Never break your word! Listening to Tao Ying's words, there seemed to be a voice, the pottery merchant seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw, and in the panic, he couldn't care about any inheritance, what Xuzhou pastor, life is the most important thing! Since this time must be the only person in the know other than his father and son, Zhang Min must be angry with his desire to kill him, and reverse right and wrong in front of Cao Ying. Then, after the city was broken, it is estimated that Zhang Min's words of annihilation are in front, even if Cao Ying is willing to listen to his own defense, it will not help, at most he will pull another back, not to mention whether Zhang Min can let himself see Cao Ying has to say something else, and what is there to talk about taking over as Xuzhou pastor?

"The eldest brother is serious, and the younger brother doesn't have any other thoughts!" Tao Ying listened to the words of the pottery merchant, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, he glanced at the pottery merchant with a dead face and the unconscious Tao Qian, sighed deeply, and said slowly: "Although Xuzhou suffered this catastrophe for no reason, provoking Cao Ying to come with an angry army, it seems that the death of the city has become an unsolvable situation; But there is no endless road, and there is still one person who can probably, maybe, and maybe, save Xuzhou once, save Xuzhou from war, and save my surname's life, but it only depends on whether you can say that this person can be moved, brother. ”

"What the second brother said is not a ......" When the pottery merchant was halfway through Tao Ying's words, he had already guessed who the person Tao Ying was talking about, and suddenly an ugly face was full of hesitation and embarrassment, and the toad's mouth grinned downward, panting and saying: "No way, no way!" It's not that you don't know what happened before, I just wanted Zhang Min's thief to take the opportunity to teach Qin Xu who made both of us lose face and let both of us brothers vent our anger; But who would have thought that Zhang Min thief borrowed my name to use Xuzhou's military funds to promise so many benefits to the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, and also made a dog that didn't make a yellow turban chase and kill order, he had already annoyed Lu Bu out of thin air, and it was just a matter if it didn't work out, and in the end, the matter was revealed, as if he was trying to plot against Qingzhou for his brother in the Yellow Turban! This incident already made Qin Xu hate being a brother, and even taking Lu Bu estimated that it was not pleasing to his brother, this time Qin Xu followed Lu Bu to solve the danger of Xiapi, and when he encountered this matter, people did not intervene to help the allies would have given Xuzhou a great favor, and now my brother is eager to avoid Qin Xu, if I go to ask Lu Bu for help, I will be slandered by that Qin Xu, is it not in vain? ”

"Brother is confused!" Tao Ying listened to the pottery merchant's words, and he didn't know whether he should open his brother's head to see if it was all paste, Lu Bu didn't care if it was for the 100,000 stone grain, this gesture of coming to help alone was enough to show that he didn't want Xuzhou to change hands at this time! After all, since ancient times, Qingxu has been one, not to mention the discord between the Mi family of the giant in Benzhou and Qingzhou, which is already an open secret. If Xuzhou falls into the hands of others, foreign aid will be cut off, and only with the lack of resources and the withering people's livelihood in Qingzhou, Lu Bu's military strength will undoubtedly be greatly discounted. Therefore, since Lu Bu can save Pi once, it is not difficult to save it a second time, and the forces around Xuzhou can control it, except for Lu Bu, who else can resist Cao Ying? As for what Tao Shang said about Qin Xu, Tao Ying didn't regard it as an obstacle at all, he glanced at his brother with hatred of iron and steel, and said: "Don't say whether this Qin Xu is really as narrow-minded and resentful as my brother said, and don't care if Lu Qingzhou still remembers the ridiculous thing that Cao Ying used to use his brother to make it laugh at, and the younger brother didn't say that let the eldest brother go and ask for Lu Bu in person, that is, you and I want to go directly to Chen and beg, with the identity of you and me, maybe you can go to the Lu Bu military camp!" In the eyes of others, we are the sons of the state shepherd, but in the eyes of others, what can we be? ”

"What do you mean, second brother? For my brother, go to ask for the Mi family? Tao Shang finally didn't get home stupidly, and was scolded by Tao Ying's words a lot sober, and asked worriedly: "It's just that this Mi family is just a businessman's family, and the head of the Mi family, Mi Zhu, is also a driver in Xuzhou, why don't you and I fake my father's warrant together, and order that Mi Zhu to come to see him, so that he can ask Lu Bu for help on behalf of Xuzhou?" At the same time, he can also order Cao Bao to lead troops to garrison Mifu, so that he will definitely ...... Mi Zhu"

"If my brother wants to destroy my Tao family, you can do it! The younger brother went to pack up and dress up softly, and took his father away for medical treatment, why bother to be buried with this Xuzhou? Tao Ying was speechless to the pottery merchant, and he had no interest in talking about it anymore, when was it, and he was still thinking of playing tricks to coerce the only Mi family who could say that Lu Bu could protect Xuzhou, Tao Qian had such thoughts and actions at the beginning, and he was suspicious of Mi Zhu, and sent to Xuzhou to report on his work, but because of Kan Xuan's remaining affairs, Zhao Yu, the Guangling Taishou who delayed the return trip, went to Qingzhou for help, but what was the result? It seems that Lu Bu came at the appointment, but Zhao Yu and Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong, who were not summoned by Tao Qian for a long time, were left in Qingzhou, and after the danger of Xiapi was resolved, they had to obediently let Mi Zhu be at the head of the civil officials, and flattered him carefully, lest Lu Bu be blamed for this incident? It's just redundant, so why bother?

"Don't, second brother, don't worry, I'll go! Can't I go? Looking at Tao Qian, who was so on the couch, and Tao Ying, who was about to pick a child, twisted his head and stomped his feet, his ugly face was full of bitterness, and he said hatefully: "TND, the situation is stronger than people!" Lao Tzu let it out, and he didn't believe that he Mi Zhu could watch Cao Ying break through Xiapi City, and his Mi family's century-old accumulation in Xuzhou came to naught! It's a big deal that Lao Tzu knelt down to beg him for his face, if he didn't agree, he stabbed him with a knife, and when Cao Ying came, no one could live! ”

"This ......" Tao Ying looked at his brother in amazement and left angrily, and was about to say something, but he could only see the back of the potter, and he smiled bitterly for no reason, and sat down in front of Tao Qian's sickbed.

In the midst of the danger of the Tao family, the two brothers finally had a rare unanimous opinion, and they decided to use the relationship between the Mi family and Qingzhou to ask Lu Bu to save Xuzhou again, no matter what the price was. And just because Qingzhou Mu Lu Bu relieved the danger of the siege of the Yellow Turban in Xiapi, before he had time to be happy, he was shocked by the news of Cao Ying's attack on Xuzhou, and they were like headless flies, panicked and without a master, and their faces were desolate. Even with almost all the people in the entire Xiapi City, because of the news that Cao Ying slaughtered Xuzhou, there was a bit of despair on the already uneasy face, and even many families with not very strong local power began to sell their shops and properties that could not be moved, and planned to go to other states to avoid trouble. It's just that the siege of Xiapi has just been lifted, who knows if there will still be Yellow Turbans and rebel remnants in the surrounding states and counties of Xiapi, Pengcheng, Xiaopei and Guangling that were captured by Kan Xuan and the rest of the party before? Will he be able to escape Cao Ying's sharp blade, but fall into the hands of these thieves, and in the end he still can't escape the danger of death and family annihilation?

"Why don't you go and ask General Lu?" I don't know who suddenly got out of the chaos, after the initial chaos, I suddenly remembered that Lu Bu, who camped in the north of Xiapi City and waded into the troubled waters of Xuzhou for no reason, didn't seem to have left.

As soon as this word spread, it seemed that they immediately had a backbone among the people of Xiapi City, that is, the people who had threatened and conspiracy theories about Lu Bu's coming to help Xiapi before, and because of their own family and surname, they had to put their hopes on Lu Bu, who had an ambiguous attitude.

Cao Ying had suffered a lot of losses on Qingzhou Lu Bu several times before, and after counting it carefully, even from the time when the princes begged Dong, none of them could please him! This time, Xuzhou suffered such a catastrophe in vain, and perhaps only Lu Bu could protect this Picheng and keep the peace of Xuzhou, and the idea of uncontrollably spreading among the people. It doesn't matter what kind of background and reputation tnd, being able to keep the surname is the most important thing! Your Tao Qian's reputation is big enough, and your background is definitely good enough, and you can also compromise with the local family and govern Xuzhou together! But aren't these Lu Bu doing very well in Qingzhou? When it comes to the matter, what else can you do except be powerless to protect Xuzhou and always use the surnames of these innocent people to pay for the misdeeds of your father and son?

Perhaps even the Tao brothers didn't expect that Xuzhou, which was secretly enlivened by local family forces such as the Chen family, the Cao family, the Mi family, etc., and foreign forces such as the Tao family, would be a rare unification of opinions...... (To be continued.) )
