Chapter 151: Following the example of Ban Dingyuan (2)

"It's Wu people!" A brocade guard beside Tao Huang snorted in a low voice, Tao Huang came to envoy, there are naturally brocade guards by his side, if there are female dependents, there will be internal guards sent.

Fan Changsheng, who was next to them, stopped when he heard this, looked over in surprise, looked at the group of people, and then looked back at Tao Huang.

"It's indeed Wu." Tao Huang made a straight face and nodded to confirm, he has been operating in Jiaozhou for many years, and what he is wearing is naturally clear at a glance.

Judging from the sight of the group of people, they were also surprised, which is also because Tao Huang had been operating in Jiaozhou for several years, and the Tao family had taken root in Jiaozhou for more than 100 years.

Fan Changsheng's face changed in an instant, but he had also gone through many years of practice, and this time he went with Tao Huang as an envoy, so he naturally knew that it was risky, but in order to be promoted in the Han system, he had to take risks, not to mention these people, he didn't look at them in his eyes, thinking like this, his mood gradually calmed down, and he turned his head to look at Tao Huang, only to find that he was smiling and calm.

Seeing Tao Huang's expression, Fan Changsheng secretly put his mind at ease, but he didn't know that the more angry Tao Huang was, the brighter he smiled, but Tao Huang's current expression was a confident expression.

When two parties who are mortal enemies of each other come into close contact at an unexpected time and place, whether it is Tao Huang's side or the Wu people on the opposite side, the reaction is exactly the same.

Without waiting for Tao Huang's order, his guards drew their knives out of the sheath, and the four tallest guards took two steps forward together, blocking Tao Huang behind him with their own bodies, this is the dead soldier of the Tao family, if it weren't for Sun Hao's quick start, the Tao family would directly raise the flag in Cangwu County, and directly make the entire Jiaozhou become the Tao family, and it is natural for some elite dead soldiers to be normal.

Some of them now belong to Jinyiwei, and some are still in the hands of the Tao family by default, but Tao Ji was assigned to Tao Huang and Tao Jun, two brothers, one of whom was a general and the other was an official.

The other guards scattered and formed a circle, and they even watched out for the surrounding Baiyi people, this is Huo Yi's sergeant, who saw the traces of the Wu people in the Baiyi tribe, and passed into their minds The first thought passed into their minds is that today is to throw themselves into the net and strayed into the tiger's den.

Hanshi is not afraid of death, since this is the case, he will fight with the enemy, and the family has its own pension!

A fierce light flashed in his surprised eyes, and the Wu people on the opposite side also drew their swords almost at the same time.

Tao Huang's portrait has long been spread all over Jiaozhou, this is a wanted notice issued by Sun Hao himself, and several members of the Tao family represent wealth and nobility.

Whether it is to catch or behead a wanted criminal like Tao Huang, the credit for the change is enough to make such a pawn mix with a good military position, and they who are staring at Tao Huang are like goshawks seeing their prey.

They did not form a circle like Tao Huang's guards, surrounding the important people who needed to be guarded in the middle, but an assault formation with the leader in front, ready to rush at any time.

Seeing the formation of the Wu people, Tao Huang turned his head to look at the main house where Wuhu lived, if he judged correctly, the leaders of these Wu people should be talking with Wuhu in the house.

The two sides faced each other from a distance of about ten paces, and the air was as heavy as a taut bowstring.

No one will doubt that as long as there is a slight movement in the field, a tragic battle will begin, and on the edge of the battlefield where the killing machine is condensed, the people of the Baiyi clan are more numerous than the people on both sides combined, but none of the main people who can speak can come forward, so they can only do it on the side.

"Envoy!" Tao Huang's team leader is an old man of about thirty, not smart, but martial arts can be regarded as middle-to-top, generally such martial arts, in the army can be a military Sima, but he is a dead soldier of the Tao family, so he is loyal to be a member of the team, but the old and young in the family have a lot of treatment.

He raised his knife and said to Tao Huang on the other side of him in a low voice: "Son, I can't stay here, I will escort you out, there are many mountains and forests here, as long as we get out of the village, they won't be able to catch up." ”

Tao Huang gently tapped the scabbard hanging on his waist, the tense atmosphere did not interfere with the agility of his mind, and what was inserted in the scabbard was not a long sword for decoration, but a Han sword made by Shaofu for the two thousand stone officials of the court.

The extremely fast blade can easily cut off the trunk of a tree with a thick wrist, he will naturally use a sword, and he will also use soldiers, and now he has been appointed by His Majesty as the general of Zhengnan and the assassin of Jiaozhou, assisting Huo Yi to attack Jiaozhou, naturally he is a two-thousand-stone official, and he also has the corresponding honor guard and welfare.

If this sword is placed in the hands of the ranger, it is enough to become a divine weapon that countless people will fight for, and if it is fought with a sword, it will not be much of a problem to use one as ten.

However, if the Baiyi people have become enemies, Tao Huang does not think that with this sword and his guards, he can safely rush out of the Baiyi people's clan, and the Baiyi people live in a large area of Hepu County, if they are enemies, then it is also a big problem to attack Cangwu County and Yulin County; And if Wuhu has not yet taken refuge in the side of the Wu people and become the enemy of the Han Dynasty, then there is no need for him to draw his sword and fight.

"Put it away, don't mess around in other people's houses, what does it look like? Put all the knives away! Tao Huang's order made his guards stunned, but Tao Huang didn't care about their surprise, but turned his body in a different direction and faced the gate of the main house in this village: "We are members of the Han family, in other people's homes, don't let people say that we Chinese nobles don't know etiquette!" ”

The Han family has been passed down to the present day, and the country has been nearly 500 years old, and the Han scholars can naturally be called the Chinese nobles, of course, if the Han family is in danger and can only live in a corner, then no one will value the Chinese nobles.

But now it's different, the Han family has recovered the old capital of Chang'an, captured the northern part of Jingzhou, and the soldiers and horses are strong, and this Chinese nobleman should naturally win the corresponding respect!

Tao Huang's words came to his ears word for word, but Wu Hu stood in front of the gate without moving, and when he heard that Tao Huang was coming, he immediately found an excuse to get out of Xiu Yun. It's just that when he hurried out of the house, he found that Tao Huang had already appeared in front of the door of the mansion and faced Xiu Yun's subordinates.

After the shock, a burst of fury filled his chest, and Wu Hu's eyes with murderous intent stabbed at a Yiren who accompanied Tao Huang like a knife and gun.

How can this make the two sides meet! It's just that when Wu Hu saw clearly who led Tao Huang to meet Wu Ren, his eyes suddenly became more fierce.

Tao Huang saw a little fame from Wuhu's face, and looked back at the person who welcomed him in, it seems that he was thinking wrong before, not how high his reputation among the Baiyi clan is, but it should be that Wuhu used the wrong person. LeTV

In his experience, if you inadvertently run into other people's privacy, if you don't want to turn your face with someone, the best thing to do is to act as if you didn't see anything, you didn't hear anything, and give the other party a step, so that at least you can be vague in person.

But this experience is useless for the situation he is facing now, Tao Huang was thinking of a solution, but at this time, his pupils tightened.

From the place where Wuhu came out, another person came out, wearing the official uniform of Wu State, Tao Huang also recognized this person, there are so many scholars in Jiaozhou, the Tao family is respected, and the Xiu family was nothing in the past, but after the Tao family went, the Xiu family came out, only to see Xiu Yun come out, looked at Tao Huang, and said with a slight smile: "It turns out that there is a distinguished guest coming to the door!" ”

Wu Hu was startled by the voice behind him, and his body froze again, he didn't expect that the two cronies who stayed behind to accompany the guest would let Xiu Yun walk out like this.

After Xiu Yun came out, he saw Tao Huang and the others at first sight, and secretly said that he really heard it correctly, his identity is special, Wu Hu asked his subordinates to stabilize him, but he wanted to come out, even if Wu Hu was present, he couldn't stop it, he stepped forward, and was immediately protected by his subordinates, facing Tao Huang from a distance of seven or eight steps.

Looking at the two sides facing each other in his own city, Wu Hu's eyes were full of fierceness, but in the blink of an eye, he hid deeply, he wanted to balance on both sides of Han and Wu and strive for more benefits.

Just like his brother who he has always looked down on, swaying back and forth between the Han and Wu Kingdoms, this practice is like dancing on eggs, but for more than ten years, his brother has not made any mistakes at all.

Now it was his turn to handle foreign affairs independently, but it suddenly became a dead end for the king to see the king.

Wu Hu understands that there is only one choice left in front of him, whether it is Tao Huang or Xiu Yun, he always has to pick one side, although neither side can he afford to provoke, but now, there is no other way, he always has to offend one side.

Tao Huang looked at Xiu Yun, and the other side also cast the same scrutinizing gaze.

"Envoy." Fan Changsheng's voice sounded from behind him, and only Tao Huang could hear it in a low voice, "Do you remember Xu Ling's son?" ”

The meaning of the word 'Xu Ling' is too broad, it may be a personal name, it may be an official name, or it may be a homonym - Tao Huang is not good at guessing riddles, under normal circumstances, he can't guess who Fan Changsheng is talking about.

However, according to the current situation, which celebrity Fan Changsheng will mention, Tao Huang can imagine even if he thinks about it with his toes, and if he pushes back from the conclusion, which one Xu Ling is, it is easy to find the answer.

Ban Biao, who used to be the commander of Xu County, not only has a pair of children who write history books, but also has an aunt who is good at resigning from the Han family, but the most important thing is that he also gave birth to a younger son who is more outstanding and one of the heroes of the Han family.

Ban Dingyuan, who threw his pen from Rong, traveled thousands of miles, and raised his prestige in the Western Regions, let countless Han scholars praise them with the most enthusiastic verses, and Ban Chao made the Western Regions, in Shanshan Kingdom, with 36 people under his command attacked the Xiongnu envoys at night, beheaded and returned, forcing the king of Shanshan to throw himself into the Han Dynasty.

In the city where the target is to be recruited, when he meets the envoys from the enemy country, whether it is Tao Huang or Fan Changsheng—no, as long as he has read the Han book a little—will be the first to think of the name Ban Chao.

Fan Changsheng not only cultivated, but also studied more, as a monk, he dared to make contributions with Tao Huang and travel to foreign lands, and his temperament was naturally similar to Ban Chao.

It's just that Tao Huang is much calmer than Fan Changsheng, and he thinks more clearly, he is not only facing the barbarians, but also the Wu people, although he despises the Wu people, but he will not think that the Wu people are uneducated, and Ban Chao is a famous hero, plus now Shaofu prints Han books and sells them in all directions, and the deeds are widely spread, even if they are Yi people, as long as they have a little knowledge, they will also say a way, if they want to attack Wu people at night, they have to see whether Wu Hu agrees or not.

Tao Huang shook his head: "I can't learn ......" There was a deep meaning in the faint smile that appeared on his face, "I can't learn it." ”

Fan Changsheng's eyes dimmed, but Xiu Yun's gaze sharpened.

Xiu Yun has no strength in martial arts, his stature is not tall, his swords, guns, bows and horses are mediocre, but his hearing acumen is superior to others, standing seven or eight steps away, although he didn't hear what the scribe behind Tao Huang said, but he heard Tao Huang's reply clearly.

In Xiu Yun's view, the biggest shortcoming of those scholars in the Central Plains is that they regard the scholars in these regions of Jiaozhou as the same as brainless barbarians.

Xiu Yun had always been conceited, and when he noticed that the scribe behind Tao Huang was talking, he didn't take his eyes off staring at him, and he knew that the scribe was talking about himself.

Combined with Tao Huang's answer, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he understood what they were talking about, Ban Chao's story Xiu Yun had naturally read it, and the books sold by Han Shaofu were very cheap, so he naturally had to buy as much as he had with his family assets.

In this era, it's good to have a book to read, no matter who wrote it, the history books of the Han family are naturally also books that are sold in a key way, among which Ban Dingyuan's matter is still fresh in my memory.

With thirty-six people killing the envoy of the enemy country in the capital of a country, Xiu Yun also admires a hero like Ban Chao.

Compared with Tao Huang's cowardice at this time, he was even more disdainful, he didn't want Tao Huang to be famous, but he was a bold master, that is, in the past, Jiaozhou scholars were illiterate, so they would tout such people, but they didn't know that when such people really encountered something, they showed their true appearance.

Xiu Yun's only task this time is to recruit Wuhu over, originally he only completed the minimum work, so that Wuhu did not get involved in the war between the Han and Wu families, but now that Tao Huang is here, and he happens to collide head-on, this task assigned by Sun Zhen is really a good thing to ask for, as long as he can kill Tao Huang, where else can Wuhu go?

Thinking of this, Xiu Yun immediately took a few steps forward, met Tao Huang's eyes with a smile, greeted and saluted like an old friend, and his heart was murderous:

"You don't want to be a class super? I want to do it! ”
