The two were relatively silent, and fell into an awkward situation with each other until after a while

"Eldest Prince" Mi Fang spoke hesitantly.

"Ok?"

"How about we also lead the soldiers out to fight the tooth festival?" Mi Fang said tentatively.

The potter looked at Mi Fang suspiciously: "What do you mean?"

"En." Mi Fang seemed a little hesitant, not knowing how to explain it to him, and said, "Just lead the soldiers out and improve the food for the brothers."

Tao Shang raised his eyebrows: "I understand how to improve the food, but why do you want to lead the troops out?"

Mi Fang laughed dryly: "If you don't lead the army, who will grab it?"

Seeing Mi Fang's unnatural expression, the potter suddenly realized.

Mi Fang is going to lead the army to plunder people's wealth!

In fact, it is normal to say that since ancient times, and in troubled times, soldiers and horses have been sent out, whether they are princes, county guards, or even local tyrants with soldiers in their hands, how many people do not send troops to plunder the people's wealth?How many soldiers who don't indulge themselves rob their homes?

In serious cases, even people like Bai Qi, Xiang Yu, Cao Cao, and Temujin slaughtered the city wantonly. The so-called strict military discipline is nothing but gold powder embellished in the history books for the victors.In fact, most of the generals can only use this method to reward meritorious soldiers in order to not meet the normal needs of the soldiers when there is a shortage of military supplies and not to cause mutiny, and it is also to boost morale.

After breaking through the city, most of the leaders will plunder for a few days.During this period, the generals led by the soldiers, rape and looting all turned a blind eye.During the Three Kingdoms period, only a part of the population was lost due to war, and [-] to [-]% of the population was lost because of this kind of behavior.

No matter what the starting point is, the consequences of the army's actions will be borne by ordinary people.

The so-called prosperity means that the people suffer.The people at the bottom will always bear the suffering caused by every word and deed of the upper class.

Tao Shang said seriously: "General Mi, my father Tao Qian is known as a benevolent gentleman, and my Xuzhou army is also a teacher of benevolence and righteousness. This kind of burning, killing and looting is not what our Xuzhou army should do."

When Mi Fang heard the words, she blushed immediately: "Aren't I just thinking about rewarding our soldiers?"

"We have no shortage of military rations. Besides, we haven't fought a war yet? What kind of soldiers are rewarded well? This will spoil them. As a military supervisor, I must take care of this kind of thing. You must issue an announcement immediately tomorrow. Military order, during this westward expedition, those who loot people's wealth along the way! Immediately cut off!"

"No..." Mi Fang got bored, and began to drink the vegetable soup resentfully, but the taste of the vegetable soup was really unpalatable. Mi Fang came from a wealthy family, not to mention rich clothes and fine food, but Dun Dun must not be short of meat Yes, he can't stand this kind of treatment.

After barely taking another two sips, Mi Fang threw the wooden spoon to the ground and wailed, "I can't take it anymore! It's too bad! It doesn't even smell like meat, it's just like a bird!"

Having said that, Mi Fang turned her head abruptly, and looked at the potter again, with bloodshot eyes in both eyes: "My lord, let's grab it once! Not too much! Just grab some animals and come back to improve the food." I promise not to hurt anyone's life, that is, the last general is willing to issue a military order!"

The potter's attitude was very firm: "No! My Xuzhou army is the teacher of gentlemen! How can we do banditry? Looting, why don't we do it!"

"The teacher of a gentleman is also a human being! If a human being has a desire for tongue and tongue, he will be greedy for meat!" Mi Fang argued vigorously.

The potter said leisurely: "There are ways to eat meat, why do you have to grab it?"

"Where did you get the meat if you don't grab it?! My lord, can you stop playing tricks on the last general? The last general is talking about business with you." Mi Fang made this kid a little nervous.

The Tao merchant sighed and said: "Okay, seeing that you are so sincere, let me teach you to be good. Brother Mi knows that there is a good saying in the world."

Mi Fang said in a naive voice, "Any witty words?"

"The so-called: A wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a prostitute, and a prostitute is not as good as a thief."

"What do you mean?" Mi Fang couldn't understand such a profound sentence for a while.

The pottery merchant showed a look of disgust: "Stupid, a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a prostitute, and a prostitute is not as good as stealing! You can't understand such a few simple words? Our Xuzhou army is the teacher of gentlemen, how can we loot and throw away at will?" Losing the popularity of the people? This is the way to create chaos! So robbing is absolutely not allowed.”

Mi Fang murmured: "Then what should I do?"

"If so, then the only thing left is to steal." The potter explained with a smile.

Mi Fang stared at the potter in a daze, not knowing where he learned this nonsense.

"The teacher of a gentleman, does not steal but also steals?"

The potter shook his finger: "It's not the teacher of a gentleman who steals, but you."

Mi Fang was dumbfounded when she heard this.

"Me? I'm going to steal? I'm a majestic General Zhengxi personally appointed by Xuzhou's governor, and more than [-] soldiers and horses under his command ran out to steal livestock by himself?"

Tao Shang raised his eyebrows, angry and funny: "Of course! You are the one who wants to improve the food, not others. Let's do it yourself. Five thousand soldiers and horses are all dispatched to steal. You should be the one who was stolen by you." Is it stupid?"

Mi Fang rubbed her chin, and said cutely: "Then how many people should go?"

"Above Dubo, three school lieutenants, three captains, you, me, and a dozen guards are enough to steal chickens!"

Mi Fang's eyes were full of puzzlement: "Among the army, the highest commander and the supervising army all went out to steal chickens, sir, do you call this the gentleman's division?"

"Don't you understand? This is a technique!"

"Good skills, good skills! You are a great talent, and I will admire you in the end!"

In the past few days, a major event has occurred in the entire land of Huai and Ru.

Starting along the east end of Qiao County and heading west to the border of Yingchuan, the frequent occurrence of yellow skin essence began.

Zhuangzi and villages along the road, for unknown reasons, began to throw chickens and ducks in large numbers from time to time.

Today, Wangjia Village in Qiaonan lost five chickens, tomorrow Lijiazhai in Huaiyin lost six ducks, and a few days later, Zhangzhuang in Rudi lost a few big geese.And the route is clear, throwing from east to west, almost across the entire Rudi, without any turning!

What's more, at the lost crime scene, there will always be a few indistinct strands of yellow hair left behind, ordinary people can't recognize it at all, and don't know which great immortal is responsible for it. .

Rumors began to spread around the world that such a large-scale poultry loss case must not have been done by manpower, but must have been done by Huangpizijing.

As the saying goes, when a country is about to perish, evildoers will be born!Now that the world is in turmoil, how come demons and ghosts also come out to stir up trouble?For a time, people in Chen Ruzhi were panic-stricken, and posters were posted everywhere, inviting demon exorcising immortals and alchemists with great supernatural powers to fight against evil spirits, and all the families patronized by goblins burned incense and worshiped the world, hoping that Immortal Huang Pizi would inspire spirituality , Don't patronize your own poultry repeatedly, and go to harm other people's homes when the time is not right.

As time went by, the Xuzhou army had already reached the border of Yingchuan, and within three days, they could reconcile with Kong Ni's soldiers and horses.

Inside the handsome tent, the potter and Mi Fang were handling a roast chicken, the two of them were tearing and dragging, and what they ate was a mess.

What is happiness? Happiness is that you can eat whatever you want, and you can have everything you want.

"The eldest son is a true god!"

Mi Fang was full, wiped her mouth, and immediately flattered: "Master's method of stealing chickens is really very skillful! It opened Mi's eyes not only to make those poultry stop screaming when they are caught, but also to use the same technique. Crisp and neat, without any feeling of jerky retention! Remember to leave some yellow filaments on purpose after finishing the work, so as to spread doubts and deceive the eyes and ears of the world. It is something that people who have experienced many battles can't do. They all thought it was the work of ghosts!"

The potter sucked his oily finger, waved his hand modestly and said, "Brother Mi is over-reputed, and his modus operandi is becoming more and more proficient, and he has always taken the lead in the past few times. Only, three big geese, and thirteen domestic ducks captured alive! Sure enough, you have the courage to live up to the reputation of General Zhengxi given by my father. With Tao, I'm afraid it won't take a few days, Brother Mi Then you can be green out of blue!"

Mi Fang chuckled: "My lord, seeing that my army is about to enter the territory of Kongni, and doing this in the territory of an ally's house, I'm afraid it's quite unethical and humane. It's better to take advantage of the fact that we haven't entered the country yet, and make him two more big ones tonight." , it can be considered that we have a beginning and an end!"

The pottery merchant reached out and grabbed a chicken wing, wondering: "I didn't expect General Mi to be so keen on this matter, do you have a new goal?"

Mi Fang laughed: "The scouts came to report that there is a big village twenty miles away. I heard that it was newly established recently. It was set up by the clan that moved here from Qiaodi. The leader's surname was Xu. Hundreds of strong men and clan members raise a lot of pigs and cattle. The number is quite impressive. It is not the general's boast. We have been stealing chickens and ducks for the past few days, and the general has captured them again and again. It is very boring. The general asks for orders to capture his two mouthfuls alive tonight. The fat pig came back to sacrifice the flag! I hope you will agree!"

The pottery merchant couldn't help laughing angrily when he heard the words, this Mi Fang didn't manage the army well, but she was so focused on this kind of thing
