"Brother, I'm late and I've let my brother suffer. I'm really guilty. I'm really guilty! I'd better if I could have arrived in Langya earlier, and I'd have suffered less. I shouldn't have, I shouldn't have."

Not to mention, he is Deputy Director Tao's good brother-in-law. Although he wanted his brother to die early, when he actually saw his brother Yuan Tan lying on a stretcher, our young master Yuan Shang still bowed and bowed and apologized repeatedly, and scolded himself for being late, with a touching and caring smile on his face. Unfortunately, he had already lost all of his weight and looked haggard, but he didn't appreciate it. He just refused to speak with a blue face, and turned his face away, and didn't want to see Mr. Yuan Shang's hypocritical ugly face.

Seeing that his brother refused to appreciate the mercy, Mr. Yuan Shang was not angry either. He just pretended to be a wife and brother-in-law Deputy Director Tao and scolded him: "Brother, you are too much. Xiansi is my brother and your brother. Although he was accidentally injured, how could you let him lie on the stretcher? How uncomfortable is it to lie down? Should you let your brother lie down and rest?"

"Brother, don't blame me, I definitely didn't do it on purpose." Deputy Director Tao, who was wronged, quickly decided: "It's the eldest brother who was injured and he couldn't lie down, so he could only ask the eldest brother to lie down."

"Brother, have you been injured behind your back? Where are you injured? Is it serious?!"

Mr. Yuan Shang was shocked and quickly came to Yuan Tan to ask again for concern, but Mr. Yuan Tan still refused to appreciate it. Not only did he not answer his injured part, but he also clenched his teeth and his face became even darker. However, Mr. Yuan Shang still refused to give up, and he was rushing to touch Yuan Tan's back, constantly asking: "Brother, is it here? No? Is that here? Not? Is that hurt there?"

"Brother, he accidentally got hurt here."

Deputy Director Tao finally kindly pointed out Yuan Tan's seriously injured part to Mr. Yuan Shang, and our Mr. Yuan Shang was not polite. In front of countless Xuzhou soldiers and Jizhou soldiers, he took off his elder brother's pants, revealing the chrysanthemum that was still seeping blood. Then the screams of our Mr. Yuan Shang also echoed, "Oh my God! Brother, why did you hurt your butt? How did you hurt here?"

"Yuan Shang, a man————!" Mr. Yuan Tan finally roared hysterically in anger. The soldiers and officials of Jizhou brought by Mr. Yuan Shang beside him couldn't help laughing. Many people laughed. Mr. Yuan Shang's confidant Shen Rong deliberately exclaimed: "It's really a wound on his butt! This is the first time I have seen such a strange injury. How did he get hurt?"

"The eldest young master fell off the war horse and his butt fell to the ground first, but there were spikes on the ground. It happened to pierce into his butt's eyes, so the eldest young master was injured." Deputy Director Tao explained kindly.

"Then brother, why don't you ask the doctor to treat your brother?" Mr. Yuan Shang scolded hypocritically: "It's been a month, why haven't it been cured yet?"

"I found it. Not only did I arrange the best doctor in my younger team, but I also asked Mr. Guo Tu and General Chunyu Qiong to send a doctor from the Jizhou Army." Deputy Director Tao shouted injustice again: "But this injured part is too accidental. The spike is too deep, and even the golden ache medicine is not easy to use, so no matter how you treat it, it cannot be completely cured. I am really helpless."

Deputy Director Tao did not tell any lies this time. After capturing Mr. Yuan Tan, Deputy Director Tao did have several excellent doctors to treat Mr. Yuan Tan. He also sent envoys to negotiate with Yuan Tan's army according to Mr. Yuan Tan's request, and asked Guo Tu and Chunyu Qiong to send military doctors in Jizhou to Mr. Yuan Tan to treat Mr. Yuan Tan. However, without antibiotics, the injuries in this part were indeed extremely difficult to treat. In addition, some small reasons, so for a month, Mr. Yuan Tan's injuries were never cured. He could never do some of the most basic physiological actions of human beings, and he could only rely on liquid food to satisfy his hunger. Only half of his life was left.

"Brother, is it true?" Mr. Yuan Shang obviously did not believe his brother-in-law completely. He just asked his brother: "Brother, did you really fall off the horse and get stabbed in your butt? Brother-in-law really hired a doctor to treat you? Did your brother-in-law lie to me?"

"Get out!" Mr. Yuan Tan roared again without any appreciation. He rushed to put on his pants. His movements were too big and he touched the wound. The pain made Mr. Yuan Tan scream again, which caused many soldiers in Jizhou to laugh again. Then Mr. Yuan Tan's hysterical roar echoed at the scene, "Get out! Get out! Get out farther you can! The better the farther you go!!"

Seeing that his elder brother had almost been teased, Mr. Yuan Shang also went with Deputy Director Tao with satisfaction to visit other prisoners of war in Jizhou. However, on the way, Mr. Yuan Shang asked his brother-in-law in a low voice: "I heard that my brother is also proficient in medical skills. Is there any way to make this ordinary man's injury more important? It is best if he has not recovered from Jizhou City, so that his father and the people in Jizhou City can also see the wounds of this ordinary man?"

"Yes." Deputy Director Tao nodded with a smile, then quietly reached into his sleeve, took out some medicines that had been prepared from the sleeve and handed them to Mr. Yuan Shang, and whispered: "Spinelling, Yuejiao (cornuscus), dried ginger, boil them together. These medicines are not fatal and cannot be tested for poison. However, after taking them, the mucosa of the valley can be stimulated the most, making the valley can be damaged not easy to cure, and it is also unbearable to suffer from spicy and painful every day. Life is worse than death."

"My brother is really a miracle doctor." Mr. Yuan Tan chuckled and took the good medicine sample, and then asked in a low voice: "In the past month, my brother should have put some such medicine in his elder brother's medicine bowl every day, right?"

"Brother is joking. I'm a kind person. How can I do such a thing?" Deputy Director Tao shook his head without blushing, and muttered in his heart: "I really didn't take a little bit, but I just put one or two of each medicine in each jar of medicine."

This time, the prisoners of war that Mr. Yuan Shang reached out to Deputy Director Tao, except for Mr. Yuan Tan, there were only two important prisoners of war, Gao Lan and Xin Pi. More than 3,000 ordinary prisoners of war were left by themselves. Those who were willing to follow Mr. Yuan Shang back to Jizhou could leave, and those who were unwilling to leave remained in the Xuzhou army. As a result, more than half of the cavalry of Jizhou could not withstand Deputy Director Tao's money and food offensive, and chose to stay in the Xuzhou army, which was short of regular cavalry. Only a small part of the prisoners of war, who were still in Jizhou, chose to go home with Mr. Yuan Shang, but Mr. Yuan Shang did not care.

As for the issue of war horses seized by the Xuzhou army, both sides did not mention it. Including the third duke of Yuan, they knew that the son-in-law would never be able to hand over these war horses, and they did not ask their beloved son Yuan Shang to force them back. At the same time, these war horses were not lost by Mr. Yuan Shang, so Mr. Yuan would naturally not speak up. He destroyed his intimate relationship with his brother-in-law, and agreed that his brother-in-law possessed these precious war horses. After taking the war horses, he left Ju County and set off for Jizhou. The Tao and Yuan armies, who once turned against each other, finally reconciled and returned to their previous friendly state of getting along - at least for the time being.

By the way, let’s introduce the situation of the eldest son Cao’s team. After learning that the Xuzhou army and the Jizhou army had been rebuilt, the two Cao army led by Xiahou Dun and Lu Qian also quickly withdrew from Yanzhou and arranged defense lines on the northern line of Yanzhou to prevent Da Yuan Sangong from going south to retaliate. The war between Da Yuan Sangong and Gongsun Zan had entered a critical stage. The Jizhou army surrounded Gongsun Zan’s old nest Yijing City. Gongsun Zan relied on the strong city and had enough food to resist stubbornly, and at the same time asked for help from Zhang Yan’s army in Heishan, who had never refused to surrender to Da Yuan Sangong. After receiving the news, the three Duke of Da Yuan had to concentrate heavy troops to wipe out the remnants of Gongsun Zan and had to free up his hands to stop Zhang Yan from reinforced Yijing, so he did not immediately retaliate against Cao. The northern line of Deputy Director Tao and Cao’s team also obtained precious short-term peace time.

After the battle of Langya, although the Jizhou army suffered a small loss, the most injured person was Cao, who seemed to have no losses. When sending troops to help Deputy Director Tao resist the punishment of Grand Duke Yuan San, Cao said that he did not expect that the Langya war would end in such a situation, and he did not expect that Mr. Yuan Tan would be captured alive by Deputy Director Tao on the battlefield, giving Deputy Director Tao and Grand Duke Yuan San a chance to rebuild the old. Therefore, when the situation of the Langya war was sent to the front, he had already led his army into Nanyang for the second time to settle the score with Uncle Liu. He suddenly felt caught off guard, "Please, this time, when Yuan Shao went south, our army would definitely be the first to bear the brunt of the fire. Tao Ying also had the opportunity to watch the fire from the other side of the river and raise prices."

"Don't worry, lord, Tao's thief's move is not only beneficial, but also indirectly making profits for our army." Guo Jia coughed and analyzed for the boss Cao: "The Tao's thief captured Yuan Tan but did not kill him, and deliberately let Yuan Shang rescue Yuan Tan. In addition to pleasing Yuan Shang and seeking to rebuild the old relationship with Yuan Shao, it also further intensified the conflict between Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang. There must be a life-and-death battle between Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, and the brothers and feet were severing each other and became fire and fire, which caused Yuan Shao's internal cracks, and even internal friction, and our army could also gain profits from it."

"Although Fengxiao is reasonable, Yuan Tan's defeat in this big way will probably not have another chance to lead troops in the future." Boss Cao frowned and said, "How can Yuan Tan compete with Yuan Shang without any soldiers or power? The difference in strength and weakness is huge. Yuan Shao's husband also favors Yuan Shang and his mother Liu. Yuan Tan is not Yuan Shang's opponent at all. How can he fight to the point of losing both sides and make our army profit?"

"Jia thinks it's okay. Yuan Tan is the eldest son after all, and it's not that easy for Yuan Shang to completely overwhelm him." Guo Jia suggested: "Jia believes that the lord might as well send an envoy to ask Yuan Shao for peace, take the opportunity to contact Yuan Tan, understand his current situation, and see if he can help Yuan Tan, let him regain military power, lead the troops again, and compete with Yuan Shang head-on. At that time, our army will support Yuan Tan, and the Tao thief will support Yuan Shang, so that they will not be afraid that their brothers will not fight to the death and weaken the strength of Jizhou by themselves."

"Ceek peace from Yuan Shao?" Boss Cao blinked the triangular eyes that were as evil as Deputy Director Tao. He thought in his mind that although the conflict between Yuan Shao and Laozi was irreconcilable, it was the most critical time for him to wipe out Gongsun Zan. He definitely did not want to cause trouble on the southern front again. I sent an envoy to seek peace. Even if Yuan Shao refused to agree, he would definitely not cut off my envoy, so that my envoy could not contact Yuan Tan's. Yuan Tan's envoy was bullied by a dog, and urgently needed external support. My envoy took the initiative to contact him. It must be that the adulterer met a lewd woman and it was very easy to hook up again. He had a line with Yuan Tan, and it should be a chance to provoke civil strife in Jizhou...

"Lord, our army joined forces with Yuan Tan several times before, but they all got nothing and suffered repeated failures." Afraid that Boss Cao refused to adopt his suggestion, Guo Jia reminded again: "But it is not the case that the enemy we joined forces with Yuan Tan was too strong. Tao Ying's little thief was so cunning that he was cheated of the lord by him repeatedly, let alone Yuan Tan's common man? This time it was different. The person we joined forces with Yuan Tan this time was Yuan Shang, the embroidered pillow. Yuan Tan's identity as the eldest son and our secret assistance may not be able to weaken Yuan Shang and provoke a great civil strife in Jizhou."

Boss Cao pursed his lips, closed his eyes and thought for a moment. He quickly opened his eyes and asked, "Who is the best person? This envoy must be eloquent, must be good at power struggles and power struggles, and can help Yuan Tan in Jizhou."

"Man Bo would rather take on this position." Guo Jia suggested: "Although Mr. Boning failed in his previous mission to Jizhou and Jingzhou, it was not a crime of war. The failure in Jizhou was because he was trapped in the letter of the pottery thief. He lost in Jingzhou even more unjustly. It was completely due to the luck of the villain Yang Hong. However, Mr. Boning was very eloquent and very wise, and had old friends with Yuan Tan. It was just right to send him as an envoy."

When the eldest father Cao heard this, he was very satisfied and immediately heard Man Chong's assignment, ordering Man Chong to go north to Jizhou with a heavy gift to ask for peace and harmony with the three grand dukes of Yuan Yuan, and took the opportunity to secretly contact Yuan Tan. He reorganized the secret alliance and secretly helped Yuan Tan fight with Yuan Shang. Man Chong received the order and took over this arduous task. Finally, Man Chong begged to Mr. Cao again: "Lord, Chong is on his way to Jizhou this time and wants to ask someone to accompany him to help him do his job."

"Who?" Boss Cao asked casually.

"The brother of Sima Lang, the lord of the lord, Sima Lang, Sima Yi." Man Chong bowed and replied, "Chong has many interactions with Sima brothers. He knows that Sima Yi is not as old as the champion. He is young and mature, careful, very good at socializing, and outstanding in writing. The lord of the previous generation was awarded the title of Prime Minister. All officials expressed congratulations, among which Sima Lang's congratulations were the best. Everyone said that Sima Boda had gorgeous writing styles, but Chong accidentally learned that. The congratulations were written by Sima Yi for his brother."

"It turns out that congratulations were written by Sima Yi." Mr. Cao laughed, "I'll just say it. With Sima Lang's integrity and old-fashionedness, how could he write such a clever flattery article? He has a full range of flattery and flattery without revealing any traces of axe-chief."

After laughing, Boss Cao's love is also famous - Deputy Director Tao of Tiansha also used this to regain his life, so after laughing, Boss Cao quickly waved his hand and said, "Then let Sima Yi follow Boning and go to Jizhou. The Sima brothers hate Taoist thieves to the core. Although they often make some inappropriate suggestions, but... Forget it, give Sima Yi a chance to see his abilities. If he is indeed a talent, I will use it very much."

………………………………………

Let’s look back at the situation of our Deputy Director Tao. After sending off Mr. Yuan Shang and his party, Deputy Director Tao made a new arrangement for the defense in the northern part of Langya, and led the Xuzhou army to the road back to Pengcheng. When passing Kaiyang, Deputy Director Tao officially appointed Sun Guan as the prefect of Langya. Finally, he sighed to his lackeys: “There are still too few counties in Xuzhou, there are only seven counties in total. Originally, many people among you were qualified and capable of serving as the prefect of a county like General Sun Guan, but there are too many monks and less porridge, so there is no way, so I can only give you a grievance for the time being.”

"It doesn't matter. When the lord's territory expands again, we will have another chance." Many deputy director Tao's lackeys answered so confidently. Then several lackeys asked with a smile: "Lord, when will we go south across the river? The six counties and eighty-one cities in Jiangdong are still waiting for us to serve as prefects and ministers. We can't let the people in the south of the Yangtze River wait too long?"

"It's soon, it's soon. I won't let the people of Jiangdong wait for you for too long." Deputy Director Tao replied with a smile: "But before that, I have to go and see how our navy is doing."

"Lord, the navy is not an infantryman, and it is not easy to form, and it takes time to mature training," Liu Ye reminded carefully: "In less than a year, Mr. Zijing is afraid that he is not ready yet."

"Of course I know this." Deputy Director Tao nodded and said, "But why I got Huainan to check the situation, learn about the situation in Huainan and Jiangdong on the spot, and see which breakthrough point to rush across the Yangtze River."

"The lord may as well go public to Huainan and go south to Huainan with great fanfare." Jia Lao Poison suggested: "Xu knows that the lord does not like red tape and likes to act frugally. However, the melee in Jiangdong is in full swing, and the rebellion of Zhang Xian in southern Jingzhou is becoming more and more intense. The lord takes heavy troops south and fights against Yuan Shu, Liu Yao, Zhang Xian and Liu Biao, etc., who are afraid when they hear it, they will inevitably have the idea of ​​alliance with the lord to fight against the enemy. In the process of joining the lord, our army may have the opportunity to break through the natural danger of the Yangtze River without spending one soldier and one forward position south of the river."

"Shoot the snake?" Deputy Director Tao quickly realized the essence of Jia Lao's poisonous drug suggestion, nodded happily and said, "Mr. Wenhe's plan is great. This time I will lead 20,000 elite troops south to Huainan to scare the princes of Jiangnan who are fighting to the death. Let's see who is smarter and actively send people to contact me and ask for a good alliance. In the future, I can also protect him from his wealth for life."

"What if these princes send envoys to ask the lord for alliances? How can the lord make a decision?" Jia Lao Poisonous Guy, who has always been serious, rarely joked, saying: "When the time comes, will the lord join forces with whom will the lord join forces with whom?"

"Mr. Wenhe's brilliant plan!" The lackeys present laughed.
Chapter completed!
