Chapter 52 Sending Troops to Wancheng
"Send troops to Wancheng!" With Cao Ang's final decision, Yuan Yun and Xiahou Yuan were a little surprised. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Xiahou Yuan was surprised that Cao Ang really dared to make such a hasty decision, but at this moment, Xu Du took Cao Ang as the main commander, and it was really difficult for him to stop it.
Yuan Yun was surprised that Cao Ang had decided so quickly, and originally thought that he would be entangled all night, at least to have insomnia or something, but he didn't expect him to be decisive.
Cao Ang did not hesitate after making a decision, and immediately continued: "After my father's side confirms the news that Zhang Xiu has left Wancheng, we will immediately march westward. ”
When Xiahou Yuan heard Cao Ang say this, he still sighed and said: "The cavalry I brought has been surviving in the field for more than a month, and now if I go to attack Wancheng again, the morale will definitely not be high, if the prince insists on letting us go on the expedition, I will naturally obey, but I need some rest time now." ”
Cao Ang shook his head and replied, "Uncle Xiahou Yuan only helped me defend Xudu, and it was our Xudu's army that went out, led by me and Brother Yun." ”
Xiahou Yuan was stunned for a moment, and immediately persuaded: "Most of the soldiers who defend the city in Xudu are new soldiers, is it too reluctant for the prince to take these people?" ”
Yuan Yun continued at this time: "This attack on Wancheng still requires the help of firearms, Uncle Xiahou Yuan's cavalry will not do this, and those recruits have experienced the baptism of defensive battles in the past few days, and they are no longer considered recruits, plus they have just defeated Liu Biao's 100,000 army, and their morale is also the most prosperous, so it is most appropriate to take them at this moment." ”
Cao Ang nodded his head to Yuan Yun in agreement, and then continued: "Xu Du is rich in materials, and the grain and grass for five thousand soldiers to go out to fight are easy to prepare, and at this moment we are going to start preparing for the expedition, this time to capture Wancheng, it is expensive to grab time, Zhang Xiu asked Liu Biao to attack us, it is estimated that it is to deceive me Cao Ang was once his prisoner, so he despises me very much, and he will not think that I dare to leave Xu Du and go straight to his lair, so thinking about it, I feel that this is a once-in-a-lifetime good opportunity, which can solve Zhang Xiu's big trouble at one time." ”
Looking at the two young people in front of him, Xiahou Yuan suddenly had an illusion that he was getting old, people said that the afterlife was terrifying, but he didn't expect that the two young people in front of him could analyze things so thoroughly, and both of them were decisive, once they decided that they would immediately implement it desperately, this courage was shown in Cao Ang, a twenty-year-old man, it was already incredible, and Yuan Yun was only fifteen years old, what kind of demon and monster was he?
After looking deeply at the two young people in front of him again, Xiahou Yuan suddenly laughed, and then patted his chest and said: "You can go and burn Zhang Xiu's nest, I, Xiahou Yuan, will guard the rear for you, if you can't fight it, you just need to let go of your hands and feet, I want to see how capable the descendants of the Cao family are, haha, happy." ”
……
Cao Ang was excited, and it could be seen that he was full of confidence in this attack on Wancheng, and this was the first time he had led his troops to go out alone, but he was so excited? Riding a horse back, his whole face was flushed, and he didn't know that he thought he was going to Xu Du to greet his relatives now.
"Ma Jun sent a special ox cart, this thing is our weapon to capture Wancheng, Brother Cao Ang, you'd better send a few more people to transport it." After Yuan Yun finished speaking, he looked at Cao Ang's flushed face again angrily.
Cao Ang glanced at Yuan Yun suspiciously, and suddenly smiled: "It seems that Brother Yun has been thinking about Wancheng for a long time, otherwise how could this ox cart be delivered so timely?" Tell me what's so special about this ox cart? ”
Yuan Yun touched his chin and pondered for a while, and then replied: "Knock on the gate of Wancheng, just rely on this ox cart, then you will know, Ma Jun is really a talent, in such a short period of time, you can make a lot of adjustments to the frame I designed before, Brother Cao Ang, your black powder also has a more stable four-wheeled frame transportation, this time we just need to kill all the way to Wancheng City, and then knock on the door strongly, especially at this moment, the master is not there, we can make a big profit, make a good profit, I heard that Zhang Xiu had hoarded a lot of treasure in his residence, how could he turn his old nest upside down this time, with this money, plus those thousands of captives, Yun Ji would soon be able to build a bigger workshop. ”
Cao Ang now looks at Yuan Yun's appearance, no matter how he looks at it, he looks like an unscrupulous profiteer, especially when the other party talks about attacking Wancheng as if he is going to rob a house, and even the Xu Du defenders under his command have become bandits, but when he thinks that Yuan Yun's workshop can rely on this loot to grow, he feels that it is very worthwhile, how precious is the things produced in the workshop, as long as he touches the armor he is wearing, he can know that it is not dangerous to fight with the enemy army outside the south gate last night, but every time there is a crisis, This set of protective armor can block the enemy's sword, making it an invincible existence in the battle array.
"If Wancheng is captured, the treasures and goods in the city still need to be handed over, but I will ask my father to divide a part of the construction of the workshop, as for those pawns, it is up to Brother Yun to use them, or they will be sent to develop the wasteland and prepare for the army's tuntian." After Cao Ang finished speaking, he suddenly shouted, urging the horses to speed up their pace and go straight to Xu Du.
Yuan Yun's old mare didn't have the speed of Cao Ang to sit down on the BMW, so he could only move forward slowly, even if Yuan Yun kicked several times with his heel, there was still no increase in speed, and in the end he could only watch Cao Ang's distant back and stretch out his middle finger fiercely.
Shi Shen has reverted back to his identity as a guard at this moment, this time he has made enough military merits in the Xu Du guard battle, and finally all of them were converted into five baht coins, these are all exchanged for his life, as long as he returns to Xu Du, he can receive the reward, he is full of expectations for this, because the money that was rewarded is Yuan Yun prepared to come back, so it is absolutely impossible to lack two catties.
Looking at Shi Shen's face with a look of wealth obsession, Yuan Yun asked angrily, "How much money did you exchange for military merits?" ”
Shi Shen smiled with a dark face of dirt, and replied proudly: "Back to the lord, I have changed it for twenty times, and the master book in the army has already told me, and I will be able to get the money when I return to Xudu." ”
Yuan Yun frowned, and said disdainfully: "Idiot, you have made so many military exploits before you can get back twenty times, why haven't you been smarter after following me for so long?" ”
Shi Shen was stunned for a moment, and wondered: "Does the lord think that he can change more?" Could it be that the master of the army deceived me? No, I'm going to go back to that bastard now to settle accounts, these are all things that Lao Tzu fought hard to get back. ”
Yuan Yun's brows furrowed even tighter, but he was riding on horseback, and it was really inconvenient to kick people with flying feet, so he could only roll his eyes and say: "If you give me the military merits of those heads, hum, I promise to exchange it for two hundred yuan for you, but you idiot went to find the master book in the army, and it has been filed at the moment, and it is difficult to change it." ”
As soon as Shi Shen heard about the two hundred guan, he immediately drove the horse to Yuan Yun's side, and he didn't care about being kicked a few times, and hurriedly asked, "Did the lord use some immortal magic method to conjure up two hundred guan?" ”
Looking at Shi Shen with a two-skinned face, Yuan Yun sighed again, and then said: "This time I found that Xu Du is really a lot of rich people, these people usually do not show mountains and waters, when it comes to gambling, it is simply a waste of money, and it is not a big family, all are merchants in the market, the reason why this kind of person is not famous is because businessmen are cheap business, no one wants to make friends with them, they arrived at the relatively peaceful Xu Du and immediately made a fortune, among them there is a family surnamed Lu, ho ho ho, In the finals, he actually bet as much as 10,000 in one go, this kind of person is not only the family surnamed Lu, it is simply as many as a cow's hair, it seems that Xu Du under Cao Sikong's governance is really very rich. ”
At this moment, Xiao Liu also followed to the side, and asked Shi Shen with a puzzled face: "There are a lot of these rich families, but what does it have to do with Shi Shen's eldest brother's military exploits?" ”
Yuan Yun replied with a smile: "This kind of rich family is not short of money, and they are not stingy in giving money and rewards in the army, and they want to get a small official position in the army for their heirs, so as not to be bullied by others without identity and status in Xu, but even a small position in the army needs military merit, and if you want military merit, you have to go into battle to kill the enemy, and these rich people can't really let their heirs go to the battle to die, right?" Therefore, you only need to give me the heads you have cut off, and I will find someone to operate them, and all these heads will be beaten into fine works that will be mixed into the city, and then sold to those rich people, at least thirty heads, and you bastard will cut off no less than ten heads on the city wall in a few days, and you will know how much it will be for yourself. ”
Shi Shen slapped his head after hearing this, and almost fell off the horse, and only gasped for a long time before he gasped: "The lord just told the prince that he was going to crusade against Wancheng, this time if we earn military merits, can we exchange it for five baht?" Otherwise, it would be a loss-making business. ”
Yuan Yun smiled, and was quite happy that Shi Shen could say the word 'trading', this product was finally a little enlightened, but was reminded by Shi Shen like this, Yuan Yun really thought of a new way to make money, there are really a lot of rich people in Xudu, these hidden rich people are good at doing business and making money, but when it comes to fighting and charging, it is all a bad seed, this trip to Wancheng will inevitably have a lot of military merits, especially Shi Shen and Xiaoliu, the two reckless sticks, in addition to killing people and setting fires, they basically won't do anything else, and give them a little money to make a living.
After thinking about it, Yuan Yun smiled heartily, pointed at Xu Du and said: "I will discuss with Xu Yi when I go back, this matter may really be done, and when you have military merits, you don't have to give any more military masters." ”
Shi Shen immediately nodded in agreement, Xiao Liu crooked his mouth, thinking that he might be able to earn hundreds of yuan, which is more real than Lao Shizi's military exploits, so he also laughed, he hadn't really killed the enemy for a long time, how could he get more than a dozen heads to exchange money for this trip to Wancheng, no one could get along with money.
