I am not a counselor, I am trying to survive in the late Han Dynasty

Chapter 11
Tao, Taoism?

Xu He was dumbfounded and almost stumbled into the water.

Everyone around was also dumbfounded. Seeing that Xu Shu didn't react for a long time, they thought he was joking.

Just, that's it?

Is this what Xu Shu did after he figured out the plan?

Xu Shu's voice was loud. His men stretched their necks to hear what clever tricks he had. They heard that they were Taoist skills. The water was really full of wows. Mr. Ai was even more desperate. He hugged the bow of the boat and cried loudly:

"Crazy, you are sick! You know shit about Taoism! No wonder you and Zhuge Liang are good brothers, and you are still pretending at this time! When you meet the King of Hell, tell him that you are pretending to death so that the King of Hell I want you to be reincarnated as soon as possible, right?"

Xu Shu secretly wrote down the name Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang is my good brother in history. Who is this person?I must find him.

He pretended to be surprised and said:
"What's wrong? Others know Taoism and can move mountains and seas, but I know Taoism and can make people kowtow and apologize. What's wrong?"

Mr. Ai:......

It’s over, have I time-traveled into Sister Lily’s mythical version of the Three Kingdoms?It doesn’t look like it either?

Or has Xu Shu been driven crazy by Cheng Yu before and started talking nonsense?
Wuwuwu Haotian God, I was wrong. If I escape, I will stay away from this madman immediately. In this troubled world, it is more reliable for me to be independent.

The Qingzhou soldiers under Xu Shu and these bandits were all Yellow Turbans before. When they started the army, they really believed that there was Taoism in the world, and that their leader Qu Shuai could call the wind and rain and was invulnerable.

But the reality is very cruel.

The legendary all-powerful Yellow Turban army was shattered when it came into contact with the Han army. Those Yellow Turban leaders who claimed to have boundless power were either chopped into pieces, trampled into powder, or became Cheng Yu's food reserve, which even caused Cao's army to be defeated. Not many people have diarrhea.

Xu Shu seemed quite normal. He had previously tricked Cheng Yu into arriving at the waterfront, held Cheng Yu hostage, and defrauded the generals of food and grass. This seemed to be a very clever trick. Why did he resort to such means in this last step?
It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous!
The first time you were caught by Cheng Yu in Juancheng, you managed to escape by setting a fire in the middle of the night. I didn't see you using any Taoist techniques to make Cheng Yu kowtow. Why did you suddenly become proficient in Taoist techniques?

Mr. Ai gave up treatment completely, hugged Xu He's thigh and started crying:
"Brother Xu, please turn around and leave quickly. Xu Shu has gone crazy. If he doesn't run away, we will all be tricked to death here."

Seeing everyone's despair, Xu Shu raised his head and laughed:
"Hahahaha, you all don't know about my magical powers, I just wish I couldn't show them to you, otherwise my wonderful magic will open your eyes!"

At this moment, everyone's fleet has arrived at the foot of Liangshan Mountain, which is where the reed marsh is most prosperous. Xu Shu's laughter shocked the water birds in the reed marsh and made Mr. Ai's face turn ugly with his arrogant appearance.

"Mom, I want to push your head into the water! Oh no, now I wonder if your head has been filled with water?" Mr. Ai cursed, reaching out to push Xu Shu's head, wanting to try this Can the cold water of Hantan make Xu Shu sober up?

But before Mr. Ai could take action, a loud whistle sounded in the reed swamp.

The whistle was long and clear, like the soul-stirring scream of a goblin. As the whistle sounded, whistles sounded one after another in the reeds on all sides.

The whistle was clear and sweet, and came and went in an orderly manner. As the whistle sounded, small boats began to sail out of the originally quiet reed swamp. There were three or five men in each boat. The boatman shook the oar skillfully and leisurely. The boats were in order, like a school of fish crossing the river, instantly covering the water with dense masses.

"So many!" Xu He was shocked and his scalp went numb.

Liangshan is just a small hill. Xu He originally thought that a group of 200 thieves would be very scary, but he never expected that there would be at least 500 fishing boats. When he looked around, he saw that there were [-] thieves. The number of people is almost twice that of our own soldiers.

What is even more frightening is that although these people have a variety of weapons in their hands, at least 100 of them hold ring-shou knives, and a few people even hold hand crossbows. They are very organized in their advance and retreat, and they are obviously not ordinary thieves.

"Quick, hurry up!" Xu He made a quick decision and called on everyone to leave quickly.

But they had already entered the depths of the reed marsh during their trek. Seeing Xu He panic, bursts of joyful singing rang out in the reed marsh behind them. More water thieves rocked the boat and advanced slowly with ferocious smiles on their faces. In an instant, Time has blocked all retreat routes for Xu Shu's army.

Xu He's heart dropped.

There are so many people!
It seems that what General Xu said before is right. These people are really brave and have set a trap. Even if Cheng Yu personally leads the army, he will probably have to escape in a hurry if he falls into the fishing boat formation.

Xu Shujun was now so frightened that he no longer had the slightest intention to fight.

Their water nature was ordinary, and many people had already started to get seasick just now. Now seeing so many thieves rushing out on the water, everyone was so frightened that their faces turned pale and they huddled in the boat - this meant that they could not walk on the water. On land, even if they were surrounded from all sides, these people would definitely have dispersed early.

"Hahahaha, hahahaha..." The laughter of the water thieves around them was like a roaring mountain and a tsunami. Their ships had completed the encirclement, and their eyes were burning, looking greedily at the sacks on Xu Shujun's ship.

If it weren't for these sacks, they might have rowed over and admired the pitiful appearance of Xu Shu and others struggling in the water.

Amidst the laughter, an old man stood up slowly and waved his hands gently around him.

His movements were not big, but everyone's laughter stopped immediately. With the support of a man, he slowly walked to the bow of the ship, looked at Xu Shu on the ship with a burning gaze, and said with a smile:
"I heard that there is a person who is proficient in Taoist arts? Who is an expert in it? I want to see him."

Mr. Ai was so frightened that his calves were cramping. He grabbed Xu Shu, shook him hard, and said in a trembling voice:

"Hurry, admit your mistake! Admit your mistake quickly, Xu Shu. This is really not a joke. I am going to die and feed the fish!" Xu Shu sat with his knees in his arms, the expression on his face not changing at all. He gently squinted his eyes and observed carefully. The appearance of that old man.

The old man was eight feet tall, with a broad face and big eyes. There was an extremely hideous scar on his face. His long gray hair was messily scattered on his shoulders. His head was wrapped in a starched and faded but extremely clean yellow scarf. He was as dirty as the water thieves around him. The clothes are in sharp contrast.

Xu Shu smiled slightly, cupped his hands at the old man and said:

"That's what I said, I don't know what to do with my name."

The old man also looked at Xu Shu, and stretched out his left hand to touch the messy beard on his chin. Only then did Xu Shu realize that the sleeve of the old man's right arm was empty, and he had obviously lost his right arm.

He stared into Xu Shu's eyes and said pleasantly:

"My name is Guan Hai, I don't know what to call him."

"Guan Guan Guan Hai?" Mr. Ai's jaw almost dropped. He rolled his eyes and lay down on the boat, squirming like maggots and holding his head.

Xu He and Xu Shujun were also shocked.

They were all born in the Yellow Turbans, so of course they had heard of this world-famous Yellow Turban Qushuai.

This Yellow Turban Commander-in-Chief gathered a crowd to attack Beihai a few years ago, and once wanted to push Beihai Prime Minister Kong Rong into a desperate situation.

Fortunately, there was an unknown soldier under Kong Rong's tent who had some courage and went out of the city alone to ask for reinforcements from Pingyuan Prime Minister Liu Bei.

Liu Bei was also honest. When he heard that Kong Rong was asking for help, he went out across several counties to rescue Kong Rong. There was a big battle between the two sides, and Guan Hai withdrew his troops, never to be heard from again.

did not expect……

He is actually hiding here!
It was actually hidden in Liangshan, not far from Juancheng, under Cao Cao's nose!
If Cao Cao knew that Guan Hai was here, he would probably be so frightened that he would break out in a cold sweat. He would have to lead someone to kill him first - after all, Guan Hai was a hero who could easily gather tens of thousands of refugees, and Cao Cao's men were all Qingzhou soldiers. Maybe if Guan Hai raised his arms and shouted, a lot of them would disperse.

Before Mr. Ai traveled through time, he had seen Cannon Fodder Guan Hai in a bunch of games and was full of disdain.

But Guan Hai was right in front of him at the moment, and the astonishing pressure from this yellow-turbaned commander made him desperately unable to breathe.

It's over, it's really over this time!

He no longer cared that Xu Shu was by his side and kowtowed with tears streaming down his face:

"Please spare us, Commander-in-Chief, this is none of our business. It was all done by Xu Shu, no, Maggot Shu! We tried to persuade him for a long time, but he always couldn't understand the situation like a maggot. What he said just now When I spoke, I tried hard to persuade him.

Don't kill me, I'm a time traveler, I can help you make great achievements and recreate Huangtian!I must be loyal to you, don't kill me! "

Guan Hai was amused by Mr. Ai's appearance, and Xu Shu was also happy. He bowed his hands to Guan Hai and said respectfully:
"I am Xu Shu, whose courtesy name is Yuan Zhi. I am a poor scholar from Yingchuan, and I have heard the name Guan Shuai for a long time.

I deceived Cheng Yu before and stole hundreds of ships of food and grass from him. If I want to go up the mountain and become a thief, I would like to ask Guan Shuai to make it easier. "

"Robbing Cheng Yu?" Guan Hai was full of disbelief, but the hundred ships of food did not look like fakes, which made Guan Hai hesitate a little, "You are an outstanding person. If you want to join the gang, it will not be difficult.

It's just that our troops are weak. If Cao Cao knows that I, Guan Hai, are here, I'm afraid that all the old and weak will be killed.

So... I'm sorry, I can only accommodate one person, Yuan Zhi, and the others can only stay in the river. I'm sorry, sorry. "

Guan Hai said this calmly, and sentenced everyone to death in one sentence. Everyone in Xu Shu's army looked at Xu Shu with fear, fearing that Xu Shu would nod in agreement and use their heads as a certificate of surrender for Xu Shu to go up the mountain.

Xu Shu smiled and said:

"As expected of Qingzhou Huangjin Qushuai, he separated me and my subordinates in just a few words. Such a method is really rare.

However, my subordinates are willing to follow me up the mountain. If I abandon them, what difference will I make to a pig or a dog? "

The corners of Guan Hai's mouth raised slightly, with a ferocious look on his face:
"Yes, how are you different from a pig or a dog? If you agree, I will kill you immediately. I hate these people the most in my life."

Xu Shu stood up straight and said calmly:
"It seems that Guan Shuai is going to kill me no matter what?"

Guan Hai nodded:
"However, doesn't Yuan Zhi know a Taoist skill? He is not afraid of an old man like me."

Xu Shu sighed:

"There's nothing I can do about it. I'll be polite first and then fight. In this case, I can only let Guan Shuai see my Taoist skills!"
