The Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms: The Evil God Arrives

Chapter 290 Tao Qian is also prepared
With the help of his legion talents, Chen Dao can integrate the legion's will to achieve operations such as rewriting reality.

It's just that the development of his own legion's talents is not deep enough now, so Chen Dao can only temporarily integrate the wills of the three hundred people who are most deeply influenced by his legion's talents.

However, Chen Dao has already developed the legion's talents to a certain extent. If he wants to continue to develop them in depth, it will not be so easy.

Therefore, if Chen wants to continue to increase the output of his own legion talents, the best way is to use his legion talents to continue to render more soldiers.

It would be just like setting a trap for Cao Bao now, if Chen Dao could unify the wills of more than just three hundred people.

If there were nine hundred or even a complete legion, Chen Dao would be able to do more than just freeze the bodies of Cao Bao and others.

Although Chen still needs the help of Danyang's collaborative talent to rewrite reality.

However, this is the future development direction of Chen Dao’s legion’s talent, and even the future development direction of Liu Bei’s personal guard and his headquarters legion.

After Chen Dao used his willpower to rewrite reality to block Cao Bao's ability to speak, he let go of Cao Bao's hand.

"Then I wish you good luck." Chen Dao said to Cao Bao, who looked terrified but unable to speak or even move his whole body.

Chen Dao was about to turn around and leave, but he seemed to have thought of something and continued to say to Cao Bao: "It's a pity that your will and internal energy are... not very strong.

Otherwise, our ability to rewrite reality wouldn't be able to restrict you so much.

Well, finally, I wish you good luck." Chen Dao kindly blessed Cao Bao again.

"..." Tears rolled down Cao Bao's eyes, but unfortunately no one could see it because Chen Dao had already turned and left.

Except for the parties involved such as Chen Dao, Cao Bao, and those who roughly know what will happen to Cao Bao.

From the perspective of the others, Cao Bao hurriedly left an order to retreat and ran away from the command desk, leaving the messenger on the command desk alone looking at Cao Bao's back.

Yes, in the eyes of other soldiers at the scene, Cao Bao only left an order to retreat, but there was no specific method of retreat.

Should they retreat step by step to block the enemy's advance, or should they retreat to the government office in a disorderly manner like a major rout?
No, none of that. Cao Bao just gave the order to retreat and then led the way and ran away.

Although the Danyang elite troops do not need command, as a commander I cannot really not give command.

Amid the curses of many Danyang soldiers and the wild laughter of the private soldiers of the aristocratic families, Cao Bao missed a step.

He was helped up by the guards around him and continued to run forward. However, before he had taken a few steps, he missed another step.

Then, without waiting for the guards around him to help him up, Cao Bao suddenly jumped up under the threat of death.

Then he was stabbed in the heart from behind by a private soldier from a noble family who had caught up with him.

In the memories of these private soldiers from aristocratic families, although Cao Bao was also from a noble family in Xuzhou, he was a member of a noble family who had already defected to Tao Qian.

At this time when Tao Qian and the Xuzhou noble families were at odds, the Xuzhou noble families did not inform their own private soldiers not to kill Cao Bao.

In other words, killing Cao Bao was also part of the plan of some Xuzhou families.

After all, the Xuzhou Cao family had made a lot of money by taking advantage of Cao Bao's position as the commander of the Xuzhou Danyang Army Group. Of course, some Xuzhou families would be dissatisfied with the Cao family.

As the blade was pulled out by the private soldier of the noble family behind him, Cao Bao felt that all his strength was drained away, and then he fell directly to the ground.

Cao Bao collapsed on the ground with blood bubbles at the corners of his mouth. He stretched out his hand in vain to press on his bleeding chest, trying to stop the loss of strength.

Unfortunately, Cao Bao did not have the strong vitality to allow internal Qi to leave the body or to mutate and practice Qi into Gang. He could only watch helplessly as the blood in his body was drained away.

The ban set by Chen Dao had long disappeared, but Cao Bao was no longer able to regain his former arrogant temperament of a noble family.

The powerful shouts and curses of the past became soft and weak, and even opening one's mouth to speak became extremely difficult.

Unable to hold back the blood flowing from his heart, Cao Bao looked at Chen Dao's departing back and stretched out his hand in vain to catch Chen Dao's back.

Cao Bao felt that if he tried harder, he would be able to catch Chen. He really could catch him if he tried harder.

Cao Bao’s eyes went dark, and his consciousness fell directly into endless darkness, and he would float in this darkness forever.

Unless, this world has opened up a reincarnation channel, or a brave man who was sent here by a heavy truck opened up this darkness.

Otherwise, Cao Bao's consciousness would be permanently exiled in this dark area.

After all, Cao Bao did not have the ability to return from Guixu on his own initiative, and he had made no contributions to the Han Dynasty, so it was impossible for the Han ancestral temple to rescue him.

Therefore, the journey of the man named Cao Bao ends here. I hope that one of his descendants will be able to give away land, establish a country, and build a ancestral temple - ahaha

"How about it? Cao Bao was killed by the enemy on the battlefield. Are you satisfied with this death, Lord Tao?" Liu Bei turned to Tao Qian and asked.

The three people with internal energy leaving their bodies could easily lead a dozen people across the front line and enter the government office where Tao Qian was.

After Liu Bei and his companions revealed their identities when entering Tao Qian's mansion, they told Tao Qian that they were planning to kill Cao Bao.

After all, he is just Cao Bao, nothing special. What's more, Cao Bao really thinks that Tao Qian doesn't know about the traitor's behavior.

If Cao Bao really thought so, then he was underestimating Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou.

Tao Qian's condition has only declined a lot due to his age, not because he has lost his edge. Tao Qian's minions are still there.

However, at that time, Tao Qian had no other forces to rely on in Xuzhou except the elite troops he brought from Danyang.

As a last resort, Tao Qian had to compromise with the Xuzhou families and give up part of his power as the governor of Xuzhou in exchange for their support.

For example, Cao Bao, Chen Deng, and Zhao Yu.

However, Cao Bao, the military officer appointed by Tao Qian, did not take into account Tao Qian's kindness to him, but was only thinking about the Cao family in Xuzhou.

This time he got what he wanted, at least he died on the battlefield, although he was killed by pursuers.

"Xuan De, you are just trying to save face for me." Tao Qian shook his head and smiled bitterly.

After all, Tao Qian had held the position of Governor of Xuzhou. How could he not see the darkness hidden in Cao Bao's heart?

However, Tao Qian had no choice at the time. If he didn't use Cao Bao, who could he use as a military officer, and who could he use to appease the Xuzhou family? When he decided to entrust Xuzhou to Liu Bei, Tao Qian was still thinking about whether he should get rid of Cao Bao in exchange for Liu Bei's preferential treatment of his two sons.

Although entrusting Xuzhou to Liu Bei had earned Tao Qian enough favors from Liu Bei and his subordinates.

However, who would complain about having too many favors?

But who could have thought that before Tao Qian was ready, the Xuzhou noble families could no longer wait.

Yes, when the news that he wanted to bring Yuan Shu to Xuzhou was leaked, he should have known that the situation was no longer under his control.

When Liu Bei did not appear in front of Tao Qian as per the itinerary in the notice, Tao Qian knew that this was a setup, a setup against him, the Xuzhou family, and Liu Bei.

"Mr. Tao, respectability is something you earn yourself, not given by others." Yang Ji shook his head and said.

If Tao Qian had not supported Liu Bei and had not intended to entrust the power of Xuzhou to Liu Bei, Yang Ji and Li Ru would not have intended to give Tao Qian any respect after this incident.

You know, this mutiny involved Liu Bei. No matter how calm Yang Ji and Li Ru were, they couldn't let this matter go easily.

Didn’t you see the look in Li Ru’s eyes? That guy was definitely going to massacre the Xuzhou noble families.

Even if the Xuzhou family is just a pawn controlled by others, does that mean they have no responsibilities?
Don’t even think about it. Li Ru will never let the Xuzhou family go, even though it won’t cause too many casualties.

However, Li Ru was very skilled in demolishing houses. When he was in Chang'an and Luoyang, Li Ru had practiced this technique on the wealthy families in Guanxi.

For aristocratic families, death is probably not the greatest pain. The greatest pain is to watch the family come to an end and the family knowledge be lost among the common people.

Sometimes, Li Ru felt that Chen Xi was indeed a guy who came from the most powerful family in the Han Dynasty. He was the one who had the most say in how to break the defense of the family.

"Alas, General Anton is right. I have earned this face myself." Tao Qian sighed.

Although Cao Bao chose to die on the battlefield today, it allowed Tao Qian to save some face in front of outsiders.

However, people outside don’t know, but doesn’t Tao Qian know what’s going on?

Tao Qian made a mistake in selecting personnel and generals, resulting in the 3,000 elite Danyang soldiers under his command being unable to defeat the motley crowd of more than 10,000 formed by the private soldiers of aristocratic families.

Although Tao Qian did not dare to guarantee that the 30,000 Danyang troops under his command were all elite, but the 3,000 Danyang who were guarding him in Xuzhou City were definitely elite or even super elite.

Watching Cao Bao divide the 3,000 Danyang elites into groups, he failed to bring out the fighting power of the Danyang elites at all.

Even because of Cao Bao's reckless command, the originally tacit cooperation of Danyang's elite troops turned into a mess.

Tao Qian almost had a cerebral hemorrhage on the spot. If it weren't for his lack of energy, Tao Qian would have gone up to command the battle himself.

Unfortunately, due to health reasons, Tao Qian had to pull Cao Bao out to command the battle.

After all, if Tao Qian collapsed on the battlefield due to health reasons, it would be all over.

"Zi Yu, stop talking nonsense here." Liu Bei glared at Yang Ji. This guy didn't even consider the surroundings before he spoke.

Facing Liu Bei's glare, Yang Ji shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he would not cause any trouble for the time being, and whether he would cause any trouble in the future remained to be determined.

Looking at Yang Ji and Li Ru, two guys who kept their mouths shut and thought about things, Liu Bei couldn't help but feel a headache. These two guys are a bit difficult to deal with.

Before they met Tao Qian, these two guys were already discussing how to deal with the Xuzhou family.

Although they have not been able to catch the people or the noble families behind the trouble for the time being, Yang Ji and Li Ru feel that it would be a good idea to collect some interest from the noble families in Xuzhou, which would at least help ease their mood.

"Mr. Tao, what should we do now?" Liu Bei shifted the topic to how to resolve the current mutiny.

"Yuan Da, Yuan Long, what do you think?" Tao Qian looked at Zhao Yu and Chen Deng, wanting to ask their opinions.

Although Chen Deng and Zhao Yu were also from aristocratic families in Xuzhou, compared with the idiot Cao Bao, Chen Deng and Zhao Yu knew best how to bring the greatest benefits to their families.

Choosing to stand by Tao Qian at this time would definitely leave a good impression on Liu Bei.

Moreover, by choosing to stand by Tao Qian, you can also gain some favors from Tao Qian, so why not do it?

What? You mean their two families were among the private soldiers attacking Tao Qian’s mansion?
It's impossible. These two families didn't participate in the mutiny at all. As early as when the Xuzhou families were planning to redistribute the interests of Xuzhou before Liu Bei took control of Xuzhou, these two families had already submitted documents to Liu Bei.

What is an aristocratic family? Don’t these wise men who come from aristocratic families know it?

They knew it very well, but still wanted to redivide Xuzhou's interests through military mutiny before Liu Bei arrived?

What are you thinking? Do you really think that after Liu Bei takes control of Xuzhou, he will maintain the original division of interests according to the ideas of the Xuzhou families?

After hearing Tao Qian's words, Zhao Yu turned his head and looked at Chen Deng. It would be better to let Chen Deng, a man known for his wisdom, handle this kind of thing.

Feeling the gazes of everyone present, Chen Deng could not help but straighten his back, because one of the gazes here was from Liu Bei.

Chen Deng pondered for a while and said, "Just let the elite troops of Danyang act independently. We don't need to do anything unnecessary in command."

Chen Deng is different from that idiot Cao Bao. He knows the special features of Danyang's elite troops.

If you do not have a certain level of command ability, it is better to let the Danyang elite fight on their own. Your command may not necessarily be better than the Danyang elite fighting on their own.

"Xuan De, what do you see?" Tao Qian looked at Liu Bei. How could he not feel the will of Chen Dao and his group of elite Danyang troops who were embedded in his command?

"Shuzhi and the others will cooperate with the actions of Danyang's elite troops." Liu Bei said with a smile.

After all, he has not officially taken over the power of Xuzhou, so let Tao Qian make the decision himself.

"Chen Dao, Chen Shuzhi?" Tao Qian sighed. If he had a great general like Chen Dao under his command, why would he hand over 30,000 elite Danyang troops to a guy like Cao Bao.

"Send an order, let Tao Shang and Tao Ying lead the elite Danyang troops outside Xuzhou city to end this riot." Tao Qian did not follow Chen Deng's advice, but issued another order.

Tao Qian had been fighting with the Xuzhou aristocratic families for so long, how could he not be on guard against them?
