Chapter 137 [Do good things, keep your name (below)]

(Thank you so much, Dameng, Zhao Wuxiu's support in 2014 is always so timely.)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At this moment, at the east gate of Yancheng, above the Ji River, the Ma Han, who had just stepped down from the pedal of the building, was welcomed completely unexpectedly and overwhelmingly.

Not to mention Ma Han unexpectedly, even Xuzhou officials preparing for the welcoming ceremony could not have imagined. Their original plan was for the people of the whole city to greet Liu Bei and others at the north gate, and the other half to welcome Ma Han and his party. This arrangement looked good and took care of both sides. But unexpectedly, when Ma Han's iconic building ship appeared, the wolf-headed hunting flag on the mast, which had clear black and white, green eyes and a very visual impact, appeared, and the wolf-headed hunting flag on the mast was sensation.

The people of the North Gate ran towards the East Gate, the people of the East Gate ran towards the river bank, and the people who were welcomed by the river bank ran towards the mudflats... They were all in chaos! All Xuzhou officials, led by Mi Fang, were stunned.

Before Cao Cao returned west, he sent a quick horse to hold a letter and issued a notice of withdrawal to the counties and counties in Xuzhou, which was the final defense of the war. The reason mentioned in it was that the culprit was captured, the great revenge was repaid, and the filial piety was fulfilled, so he retreated. The reason was very high-sounding and there was no problem. Not only could the public not blame him, but he would rather smile to compliment the "filial son". After all, the Han Dynasty governed the country with filial piety.

In order to fulfill filial piety to Cao Cao and to establish his life for the people of Xuzhou, Cao Cao's notice clearly stated that he was a man named Ma Han. At the same time, with more than 10,000 people from Suiling going north and south, pouring into the East China Sea and Guangling, Ma Han's reputation as "the Buddha of thousands of families" was also spreading from all over the country.

Cao Cao played this trick very well. Previously, Xun Yu had judged that Liu Bei was very likely to turn to Xuzhou based on Liu Bei's efforts in the battle of aid, Tao Qian's physical condition, and Liu Bei's frequent contact with the Mi brothers. However, during the battle of aid in Xuzhou, Liu Bei made great efforts and caused Cao's army to be slightly defeated several times. Among the military and civilians of Xuzhou, his reputation gradually faded, and he faintly showed the dust of potential opponents.

The emergence of Ma Han not only solved the problem of Cao's decent withdrawal of troops, but also allowed Cao Cao and Xun Yu to see an opportunity to offset Liu Bei's influence in the military and civilians of Xuzhou. For this reason, in the announcement, the reason for Cao's withdrawal was almost attributed to Ma Han, and the incident in Suiling was also widely publicized.

Cao Cao had slaughtered the city several times, and he would not care about the negative impact of an attempted city massacre on the Cao army. On the contrary, he wanted to use the city massacre to intimidate the military and civilians of Xuzhou to achieve the goal of defeating the soldiers without fighting. Cao Cao did not regard this bloody terror as a negative impact at all - this is the effect we want.

As a result, with Cao Cao's intention to promote and promote, the halo on Ma Han's head became brighter and brighter, and it was a great hero who saved Xuzhou's peril. Many rumors about his brave capture of Zhang Kai and blocking Cao Ren were like a scythe. In just a few days, it spread throughout most of Xuzhou, and even Zang Ba, Sun Guan and others from the most remote Langya County, knew about it.

Sure enough, the reverse propaganda from the enemy is the most convincing - even the enemy is convinced, do you have to say anything about your own people?

It is not up to the mouth of famous scholars or the strong push of aristocratic families, and it becomes famous.

In the northern part of Mobei, he obtained a bad reputation and a brave reputation; in the Central Plains, he obtained a name of benevolence and righteousness. Everything was right.

Why did Liu Bei eat everywhere? In addition to the little reason why his surname "Liu" who had five squads was his name. The most important thing was the reputation of being eager to be righteous and righteous that he had accumulated over the years. Because of this reputation, Kong Rong thought of asking for help when he was surrounded by the Yellow Turbans, and he immediately sent troops to rescue him. After being promoted by Kong Rong, a contemporary celebrity, he gained greater fame. Similarly, he rushed to Xuzhou to resist Cao's army, and even added bricks and tiles to his name.

Because of this reputation, when Liu Bei was forced to surrender to Cao Cao, Cao Cao had a chance to attack, and even Cheng Yu advised him to take action, but Cao Cao was afraid of affecting his reputation for accepting talents, so he did not attack in the end. Because of this reputation, Liu Bei could only gain a place in Liu Biao when he was desperate in the future.

However, all of this was taken away by Ma Han without hesitation. Liu Bei, who was plundered by Ma Han who emerged from nowhere, was still unaware of it.

When Ma Han entered the city, the whole city was caring. The sadness and joy of the people of Xuzhou who survived the disaster and the depression of losing their relatives broke out completely when they saw the hero who saved them, and the whole city of Shan was in full bloom.

The horse man did not wear armor today, but only had a blue belt, a square scarf on his head, a green robe, a belt on his waist, and a light blue troupe on his shoulders. There were more than a hundred cavalry armored soldiers in front and back, and the stars were used to provide the moon, the people were as sharp as dragons, the white horses were handsome, and the people were bright and radiant. This charm made the entire city of Shan bewildered.

"Liaodong Tianju!"

I don’t know who shouted this first, but for a moment, the whole city responded and resounded throughout the sky.

The name of Ma Han's "Liaodong Tianju" spread here.

When the team passed by a magnificent house, under the dense branches and leaves, two girls on high ladders were secretly poking out half of their faces from behind the courtyard wall, staring at the handsome and upright figure without turning their eyes.

It was not until the team slowly disappeared from sight that the two girls let out a sigh of relief, stroking their chests and smiling at each other.

The truncated girl on the right, who was only twelve or thirteen years old, whispered: "Miss, this Liaodong Tianju is younger and more heroic than the Liu Xuande who was highly praised by the head of the family!"

The girl on the left is slightly older, with a round face, handsome eyebrows and eyes, and slightly raised lips, giving people a playful feeling and a sweet appearance. At this time, she was gently tapping her round jaw with her white and slender fingers, and murmured: "Liaodong Tianju Ma Jinglong looks only as young as a young man. As expected, she is heroic and handsome. No wonder the young lady of the Gan family appeared in a warning regardless of danger when he was assassinated by Zhang Kai, a traitor..."

Hey! If Ma Han knew that the process of capturing Zhang Kai was tampered with like this, I really don’t know if he should admire the imagination and creativity of the general public, or be stunned by this bloody gossip.

"By the way, did you see the Gan family's little lady?"

"I didn't see it, maybe I stayed on the boat and didn't follow him into the city."

"No, I must have entered the city. Maybe I was mixed in the team and was accompanied by a casual outfit, but there were many people and I couldn't see clearly for a while." The girl said with a firm tone, with her big black eyes flashing with a cunning smile.

If Ma Wen heard it, he would be afraid of laughing bitterly. The woman's intuition was really terrible - even if it was just a fourteen-year-old girl.

"Miss, go back to the inner courtyard quickly. It would be amazing if the head of the family or the second young master saw it." The maid whispered.

The girl said a little, "Brother, as a guide, the second brother is very busy at this time, so he can't care about the affairs of the mansion... Forget it, let's go back first. If this little lady of the Gan family has the chance, she will definitely meet her. "

...

In the main hall of the palace of the prefecture of Yancheng, Tao Qian, wearing a three-beam crown and a black crown dress with cloud pattern rolling sleeves, was kneeling behind the desk, and his tired expression was swept away, looking refreshed. The two rows of civil and military officials at the steps were all solemn and respectful. Although there were many people, they were quiet.

Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou, the Marquis of Liyang, and the General of Andong, was 63 years old. His hair and beard were all white. His face was covered with red light. He had been hit hard by his body and mind for nearly half a year and became haggard. He was covered with thick white powder to cover it up.

Cao's army retreated and escaped from the disaster. Xuzhou was all over the country. Only he, the governor of Xuzhou, was happy on the surface, but his inner worries were not as relaxed as when Cao's army was in a hurry. This pressure came from two aspects: one was that half of Xuzhou was destroyed by Cao Cao, and people's hearts were also broken. After this battle, his prestige was severely weakened, and his superiority was distracted, and his government orders were not smooth, which was irreversible. Second, he asked Gongsun Zan for help this time, and he was originally a transit wolf, but he didn't expect it to be a land tiger - he didn't want to leave when he came.

Although Tao Qian was ill, his military power was still in control. The general of Xuzhou and Cao Bao, who was then the general of the Central Army, still followed his horse. He was not sure about Mi Zhu, and the captain Mi Fang was very close to Liu Bei. How could Tao Qian not know? When Liu Bei first came, there were few soldiers, so the Mi brothers rushed him to pick a large piece of Xuzhou soldiers and horses to Liu Bei. In addition, the food, grass, soldiers and armor, and rewards were also tilted towards Liu's troops. How could Tao Qian not know about these? It was just that the enemy was in a vain and had no choice but to acquiesce.

Now that the jackal has gone, there are tigers looking at each other. Tao Qian is already considering how to quietly exchange the Danyang soldiers who have been loaned out and at the same time set up the tiger sitting on the ground. Because of this war, Zang Ba's troops who are even more distant from the Xuzhou regime, also have to arrange the power of control. In addition, we must find ways to gather the dispersed people's hearts and rebuild their prestige... There are too many things to do, but how much can you have to leave your own time?

The hall was quiet. Tao Qian, who was already in his twilight years, was like an ordinary old man lying in the evening. When he was quiet, he would be distracted, sleepy, and not think about his spirit. However, most ordinary elderly people were recalling their ordinary or extraordinary life, while as the governor of a state and the lord of all people, Tao Qian was still thinking about how to intrigue and intrigue.

In this silence, the city was shouting and shouting like waves. The officials in the hall were all shocked for a moment - they had to be surprised. The Cao army was still staring at Pengcheng hundreds of miles away. Cao Ren, the tiger of the Cao army, was bloodthirsty and fierce. He could kill him in just one day and night.

Tao Qian was also awakened by the sudden sound, but he was still calm and said in a deep voice: "Where is the noise coming from? What are you shouting?"

The waiters in the hall looked at each other and shook their heads without knowing.

Tao Qianqingdu: "Go and go outside the mansion to ask."

The waiter hurriedly ran out of the mansion. Soon after, he rushed to report: "Report to the envoy, the whole city calls 'Ten Thousand Family' and 'Liaodong Tianju'!"

After hearing this, the officials in the hall relaxed their hearts.

Tao Qian stroked his beard and smiled: "It turns out that this man has arrived. It's really not that the person has appeared, and the voice has arrived first..."

At this time, the minor officials were led to a hurry to lie down in the palace and reported: "Report to the envoy, the governor of Qingzhou, the governor of Qingzhou, the prime minister of Pingyuan, the commander of Zang Duwei, the commander of Sun Xiaowei, and the commander of Liaodong Cavalry, led the guardian of Bailang City, and came in after the call."

Tao Qian's body moved, and his two sons, Tao Shang and Tao stepped up urgently and helped him left and right.
