There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

Before he could finish speaking, Pei Qian met the potter's stern eyes and trembled in fright.

"Uh, judging from the experience of the last general, Mrs. Feng's behavior seems to be heat stroke, right! Heat stroke!"

Yuan Wan was stunned when she heard the words.

Open your eyes and talk nonsense, okay?

The pottery merchant shook his head angrily: "How can I make my wife suffer from heat stroke? If it spreads out, it will make everyone in the world laugh at Tao for not entertaining distinguished guests well! Quickly prepare a clean tent for my wife to rest in, and send a camper to The medical officer should give me a quick diagnosis and treatment! No matter what I say, I must cure Madam’s Qi!"

"No!" Pei Qian cupped his hands.

"Brilliant clothing, fine food, silk and satin, I have been attentively served. If there is nothing in the army, let the nearby county government quickly send it to me first."

"promise!"

After Pei Qian finished speaking, he hurriedly greeted the soldiers of the Tiger Guards and helped Madam Feng to find a place for her to recuperate. The potter immediately arranged for food and asked people to boil water so that Yuan Wan would eat first and then wash up.

Yuan Wan hadn't had a decent meal for several days, and when she saw the food in the army, although it was rough, her index finger twitched.

Now she doesn't care about the family style of the Yuan family in Runan and the manners of a lady, so she picks up the food and eats it.

Seeing Yuan Wan wolfing down his meal, the pottery merchant couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

After all, she is also Yuan Shu's daughter, but now she is in this embarrassing situation.

The world is impermanent, I'm afraid there is nothing more than this.

Chapter 458 Xu Jing's Good News

After Yuan Wan had eaten, the potter prepared a clean tent for her, and asked the soldiers to prepare hot water and clean clothes for her to wash her body carefully in the tent.

After seeing Mrs. Feng's injuries, the medical officer also said that she was fine.

Speaking of it, the pottery merchant was actually quite measured in his strikes. Although he was annoyed, he didn't hit him very hard. After all, he was a gentleman, so he couldn't act as arrogantly as a rogue.

Compared with the trauma, Mrs. Feng may have been more frightened.

After settling down the two widows of the Yuan family, the pottery merchant began to prepare for the withdrawal of the troops again, and sent someone to inform Zhao Yun that the two widows of the Yuan family had been found by him now, and asked him to quickly lead Ji Ling to join forces with him One place, I came back to see you.

After dealing with these chores, the potter wanted to take a rest, but by coincidence, Yan Jian's urgent military situation was sent to the potter.

In the military situation, Sima Yi stated in detail Sima Yi's thoughts on Cao Jun's desire to subdue Changxi, and reported to the pottery merchants. Sima Yi and Wang Ling had exhausted all the soldiers in the county and headed straight for Taishan County.

After reading it, the potter took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.

Sure enough, Cao Cao is not comparable to Yuan Shu, Sun Ce, Lu Bu and others. One after another, how many tricks can he use that are hard to guard against?

Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi are still young, and their skills are not up to the level of those monster counselors under Cao Cao's command. However, they both played a huge role in this match against Cao Cao. If they have more experience in the future, they should also It's enough to stand alone.

Therefore, the two county magistrates Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi still have to continue.

"Pei Qian!" The pottery merchant greeted.

When I was young, I saw Pei Qian walking in: "What orders does the Taifu have?"

"Look for Xu Huang and Guan Hai."

Pei Qian took the order to go, and when he was young, he saw two people walking into the handsome tent.

"Teacher, are you calling me to wait?"

The Tao merchant analyzed Sima Yi's situation with the Taishan army and the Cao army, and then told the two of them: "At present, Sima Yi and Wang Ling will send troops to the nearby Taishan County to support, but Taishan County is the territory of the Cao army, and There are not many generals in Chaoqiu County, and their combat power is not very strong. Even with their support, Tai Shici and Zang Ba will be unable to support them alone. I am afraid that they will be in danger. You two hurry up and join our army All the Taishan Battalion soldiers, rush to support, and don't let Tai Shici and Sima Yi make any mistakes."

Xu Huang heard the words and said: "The last general will take orders! However, if this is the case, then the general will suggest that the Taifu not return to Pengcheng for the time being. You need to display the soldiers on the border between Xuzhou and Yuzhou first, as a deterrent, so that Cao Cao thinks that the Taifu intends to take advantage of the situation. Victory marches into the Central Plains, so that the Cao army will have a new defense against the Taifu, and no large army will go to Taishan County to support in a short period of time, so we will rescue Tai Shici and others, and the chances of winning are better."

Xu Huang's military strategy and calm and sophisticated personality made the potter deeply admire him.

In the history of the Cao Group, which is full of good generals, it is indeed a well-deserved reputation to be listed as one of the five good generals.

"Okay, according to Gongming's words, Tao will not return to Pengcheng for the time being. I will put pressure on Cao Cao in Xuchang here. The support from Taishan County will be handed over to you, Gongming."

Xu Huang said loudly: "Don't worry, Grand Tutor, the general will succeed in the end!"

After all, the potter turned to Guan Hai again, and said to him: "Guan Hai, you used to gather people in Qingzhou back then, and in terms of the geographical location of your activities, it was considered to be close to Taishan County and Langya County, and you were also a member of the green forest back then. If you are more or less familiar with the routines of Taishan County, you will serve as Gongming's deputy this time, and try to make some contributions, and Tao will definitely be rewarded later."

Since Guan Hai surrendered to the pottery merchants, the first major contribution he made was to persuade Liu Pi, Gong Du, Zhou Cang and others, but he never participated in any major battles. Against each other, they were just serving as guards in the rear battalion.

Now that he finally got a chance to play, Guan Hai was naturally elated, and he also wanted to show the potters his true skills, so he agreed without hesitation.

After the two left, the pottery merchant ordered the battalions to cancel the plan to return to Pengcheng, but ordered the battalions to prepare to divert to the west, and stationed troops and horses at the junction of Yuzhou and Xuzhou, in order to attract the attention of Cao Cao in Xuchang .

Since Cao Mengde wants to play with me, then let's have a good time.

On the second day after the order was issued, a person rushed from Jinling City to the potter's camp.

It was Xu Jing, the benefactor who promoted Xiaolian for the pottery merchant.

Since the death of Kong Ni, Xu Jing has been under the command of pottery merchants. Since Xu Jing had stayed in Jiaozhou for a period of time and had a close relationship with Jiaozhi prefect Shixie, pottery merchants have always asked him to serve as their own side. The messenger of Shi Xie's communication hopes to get the support of Jiao Zhi Shi Xie, and it is best to become an ally.

Shi Xie's strength is not weak, he occupies the land of four counties and owns most of the territory of south of the Five Ridges.

However, Shi Xie's territory is far away from the central land. There are Liu Biao, Zhang Zi, pottery merchants and other big forces in the north and northeast.

However, the Tao merchant is not interested in Shi Xie's city and soldiers at present. The main reason for him to build a good relationship with Shi Xie is to get Champa rice.

Champa rice was introduced to Zhongtu during the Song Dynasty. Its origin was in central and southern Vietnam. After being introduced to Zhongtu, it was vigorously promoted in Jianghuai, Zhejiang and Zhejiang provinces, and became the dominant food crop in the Yangtze River Basin.

Now all the places in the Yangtze River are in the hands of potters. Although the farming in the south of the Yangtze River has been far better than before, potters still have hope for Champa rice.

In the concept of potters, grasshoppers are also considered meat!If you can get it, don't let it go!If you can't pick up money on the street, you will lose it!

If they can really get Champa rice, they will give the potters two years to promote it throughout the Yangtze River. The potters believe that the mass production of grains under their command will reach an astonishing number.

Moreover, places like Yuzhang County and Kuaiji County have a very large area, but their development is still relatively backward. Agriculture is naturally the most important foundation for economic development.

Historically, during the Song Dynasty, the Fujian area had a qualitative improvement in the grain harvest after receiving [-] Dendrobium Champa rice, and it has since become an economic farm in the southeast.

And the pottery merchant had a premonition this time, he felt that Xu Jing came to see him in a hurry, probably because of the Champa rice.

Sure enough, after meeting the potter, Xu Jing immediately said: "Teacher, there is news about Zao He!"

"Zaohe?" The potter was taken aback when he heard the words: "What is that?"

Xu Jing smiled and said, "It's the Champa rice you mentioned. I've inquired a lot and learned that this grain comes from the Linyi Kingdom! More than 60 years ago, my Han Xianglin County Gongcao District Company led thousands of soldiers and horses to occupy the county seat. , killed the county magistrate, then opened up the territory, called himself the king of Linyi, and later passed on his grandson Fan Xiong. After the death of Xiong, the current head of Linyi is named Fan Yi. The neighbors, that is, Shi Xie and Jiangdong Tao, therefore intend to offer early rice seeds as a gift to see them."

The potter was overjoyed when he heard the words.

"The rice seed, when will it arrive?"
