Lu Bu looked at the invitation in his hand in amazement, and he asked in disbelief: "Wen Yuan, is it really sent by Ma Zhenxi?" Going to the Dragon Gate Inn for a feast? Or a single person? ”

asked three questions in a row, and Zhang Liao's face was also very entangled. Because, he didn't dare to tell Lu Bu that the person who sent the invitation turned out to be Ma Chao!

Since I can come to the Bingzhou barracks to deliver the invitation, why don't you just go in and find the lord? If you don't look for the lord, why do you still hold your hand and say so much nonsense? ......

"My lord, it was indeed sent by Ma Zhenxi, and by the way, he also sent a cart of Fufeng Distilled Spirit...... And, fifty scimitars of the Western Regions! Zhang Liao opened his mouth, full of strange replies.

Lu Bu was also slightly surprised: Ma Chao invited himself to a banquet for no reason, which was already very strange. Moreover, why not go to the most famous Longmen Inn in Chang'an? Or a VIP top room on the third floor? Well, even if Ma Zhenxi is free recently, showing his generosity and refusing his banquet some time ago can be said to be reasonable. But what do the Fufeng Distilled Spirits and the fifty Western Regions scimitars mean?

You must know that even Dong Zhuo coerced these things several times, and Ma Chao never took out a single cent!

Lu Bu frowned, opened a jar of distilled liquor, and wanted to drink it to sort out his thoughts. But he didn't want to, the strong aroma of this jar of distilled liquor was several times more fragrant than the distilled liquor he usually drank! Lu Bu doubted again, and after taking a sip, he found that this wine was difficult to enter his throat at all, it was too spicy and hot!

"Why? Ma Zhenxi is definitely not a fool of the cloth, why is this distilled spirit so different from the past?! Lu Bu said in astonishment, and Zhang Liao seemed to suddenly think of this, took out a piece ......of paper and said: "Lord, this is Ma Zhenxi's special explanation, I want to wait until you have drunk this wine, and then let you look at it."

Lu Bu was extremely confused at this time, and he was dizzy and opened the wind paper...... Suddenly, as if he had come to his senses, he asked, "Wen Yuan just said." This is the one who sent the invitation and gifts, is it Ma Chao? ”

Zhang Liao nodded, he really couldn't figure out what kind of play Ma Chao was playing. And Lu Bu also held such doubts. I can't help but hurry up and look at the content on the paper, but the first sentence. It made Lu Bu cry and laugh: "Uncle, it's spicy, right?" ”

Lu Bu smiled bitterly, I really don't know what to say about Ma Chao. However, the more he looked down, the wry smile on Lu Bu's face gradually disappeared, until in the end, he even showed a solemn and serious look: "Wen Yuan." Gather the generals and go to the wounded camp quickly! After saying that, he hurried out. Zhang Liao was puzzled. But still do what you are told.

After a while, Lu Bu entered the wounded camp. There are wails all over the camp here, and the smell of medicine is permeating, and Lu Bu rarely appears. However, at this moment he frowned. Or calmly called the doctor: "Can there be more than a dozen new soldiers who have been wounded by swords, guns and arrows?" ”

Although the wolf riders in Bingzhou have not fought much in these days, Lu Bu's training method is very harsh. During the exercises, real knives and guns were used, and there were more than a dozen injured people, which was all too common. After a while, Yizheng followed Lu Bu's instructions. Sixteen soldiers with similar wounds were carried to an empty camp.

Then, according to Lu Bu's instructions, they were divided into two groups, one group cleaned the wound with salt water commonly used in the army, and the other group cleaned with the wine sent by Ma Chao. The soldiers who were cleaned with salt water, although in front of Lu Bu, the god of war in their hearts, wanted to maintain their tough image, they still endured cold sweat and wailed. And the patients who had washed their wounds with wine, though their brows were furrowed, did not cry, and it seemed that the pain was much lighter than that of the group.

Lu Bu looked at Yi Zheng Shi in a gloomy manner, and the expression on his face became more and more solemn. And at this time, finally a patient who wiped his wound with wine couldn't help but scream, Lu Budian looked at it, but saw that the soldier was quite tough, he directly picked up the wine and drank two sips, but as a result, just two sips, the kid was drunk to death, and he no longer cried wolf howls to make people unhappy.

When the generals saw this scene, although they didn't know what Lu Buqi meant, they all looked at it. Only Gao Shun was silent with a cold face, and his eyes were shining. Everyone followed his gaze, and saw that among the two groups, the most seriously injured patient who had drunk to death had already been unable to bear the stimulation and erosion of salt water a moment ago, and fainted directly......

"Lord, this is ......" Gao Shun spoke, but he didn't know how to ask in detail for a while.

But Lu Bu didn't answer, and coldly instructed the doctor to do the right thing: "In the next few days, you will still do this, and when the wound is better, come and report it quickly!" ”

After turning over and walking out of the room, Lu Bu handed Ma Chao's letter to the generals to circulate. And the expressions of the generals gradually became serious......

"Lord, if it is really as Ma Zhenxi said, this alcohol is really a weapon of the army!" Zhang Liao was taken aback and couldn't help but say.

And the rest of the generals nodded in agreement: they had all fought and knew the dangers of casualties after the war. Cleaning the wound with salt water is the most common and best way for them, but the effect is not ideal, and the wound festers to death has always been a big problem. If this alcohol is really as Ma Chao said, the effect is hundreds and ten times better than salt water, it will greatly reduce the casualties of the soldiers, and the soldiers who have gone through the war are even more rare wealth.

"Let's go! Go to the Ordnance Battalion! Lu Bu didn't reply, so he ran with the generals again.

After arriving at the ordnance camp, Lu Bu first picked up nine scimitars and threw them to his eight strong generals and Gao Shun. Then, he picked up the tenth scimitar and slashed at an ordinary ring-headed knife with the blade. I saw sparks splashing everywhere, and the ring head knife broke in response. If you look closely at the scimitar of the Western Regions, there is not even a gap!

The generals were stunned, they didn't understand the intention of Lu Bu throwing them scimitars before, but now they realized that they were rewarded with a blade that sharpened iron like clay!

"This, this knife ......" Wei Xu spoke, obviously wanting to inquire where it came from. However, when he saw Lu Bu's cold eyes, he closed his mouth knowingly. After Lu Bu snorted lightly, he opened his mouth and asked Zhang Liao, "Wen Yuan, this knife is ...... than it."

"That's a lot!" Zhang Liao naturally wanted Lu Bu to ask something, and replied: "Ma Chao's iron sword is cold and bright, and the fish scales are densely covered with satin, which is obviously a peerless blade on top of a hundred satins. And although this knife sharpens iron like clay, it is probably far from the iron sword......"

After hearing these words, Lu Bu's expression changed. In the end, as if he understood Ma Chao's intentions, he smiled slightly: What Ma Chao means is that I can provide you with a peerless sword, but in order to ensure the combat effectiveness of my Ma family's army, you can only equip this kind of blade that is superior to other blades of the Han Dynasty, but inferior to Ma Jiasu's iron!

But at this time, the question came back again: why did Ma Chao send alcohol that can reduce the mortality rate of soldiers, and such a blade that sharpens iron like clay?

What you take in advance must be given first? But what will he take from himself?

Lu Bu looked at the exquisite invitation card leisurely, and he knew that he had no reason to refuse Ma Chao's invitation. What's more serious is that he also faintly felt that when he went to see Ma Chao this time, there would be unexpected incidents......
