Looking at Cao Ang's smug expression, Yuan Yun only felt a little headache, now those gunpowder shells fired with catapults were finally changed to safer gunpowder packs at his own suggestion, even then Cao Ang didn't have to be so proud, right? Because the range of the catapult is really quite limited, and the uncertainty of the landing point, so there is no ability to kill at all at all, but it is possible to deal with a large number of siege groups, if you want to get rid of anyone on the battlefield alone, unless you aim a dozen trebuchets at one place to launch, and then you have to hit the luck. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Yuan Yun has always longed for those generals in the Three Kingdoms period to fight in front of the battle, but after seeing many savages in Xudu, he gave up the idea, so he thought that no matter how powerful the generals he encountered in the future, as long as he shot over, he would blow up the opponent with men and horses and his limbs, which was the most suitable way to fight, and now these trebuchets are naturally disappointing, but in the near future, maybe another weapon will be different.

However, Cao Ang is also smart enough, and actually created a stone mine, this kind of stone mine is two meters long, filled with more than two catties of iron sand at a time, placed in an open place outside the city, as long as the rocket is ignited, after the explosion, all the enemies within a range of fifty meters can be pierced into a sieve, and the shock wave generated by the explosion can shock people to death. This thing Yuan Yun only saw my mighty Eighth Route Army during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and he didn't want Cao Ang to create it.

Bang! A loud bang exploded outside the north gate of Xudu.

Looking at the black smoke that gradually rose, as well as the shock wave that radiated on the ground, Yuan Yun felt that guarding Xu Du was really a very boring thing, if the enemy attacked, he would first enjoy the baptism of the catapult gunpowder pack, and then there were stone mines that exploded at his feet from time to time, and finally finally rushed to the city wall, and it was another round of grenade bombardment, if he could climb the city wall in this way, the other party would not be a human army, but a god and demon.

Cao Cao's army has been away for more than half a month, and there are a lot of trebuchets on the city wall of Xudu, and those stone mines are also everywhere outside the city by Cao Ang, and he still knows camouflage, and he makes it like a stone in the land, and as for those grenades, the defenders are 8,000, and he has 150,000 of them, almost 20 per person, which has been filled, and the city guard camp is still being made so far, and I don't know what Cao Ang thinks? Do you think that the other party will send 100,000 troops to attack?

When the sergeants on the city wall were experimenting with these gunpowder weapons, the football league was still going on in the city, and the team was all the way through, only one step away from the championship, and the winner could be divided tomorrow, so Yuan Yun moved the idea of persuading Dian Man to play match-fixing, because the odds of Dian Man had reached eight to one, if Dian Man deliberately lost, then they could earn 80,000 yuan in an instant, plus what they had obtained before, this ball game could be recorded in more than 200,000 yuan, far more than the 100,000 yuan promised to Guo Jia. It's a pity that if he really talks to Dianman about this, he will definitely scoff at it.

There is also the demon god Sima Yi, last time he deceived himself 500 Wen, and finally sent someone to investigate, this bastard actually sold the small wooden card all over the field, especially after the pawn gradually won, his wooden card is selling better and better, because he wrote on the wooden card that the final champion is the pawn team, the next few games because of the analysis of his broken wooden card, resulting in a lot of losses in the gambling dealer organized by Xiahou Nan, and the loss of his own penalty This incomparably great design, so that the game has a lot of luck factors, Otherwise, Sima Yi's bastard almost ruined his plan, and sooner or later he would have to get it back.

"Brother Yuan, Brother Yuan, how high do you see my kite flying?" Cao Jie happily ran over from the other end of the city wall, the kite in his hand was already flying very high, this girl has been sticking to herself these days, and forced herself to make a bigger kite for her.

Looking at the phoenix kite with its tail constantly dancing in the sky, Yuan Yun smiled bitterly, he was about to be tossed crazy by a few of their little guys in the past two days, Cao Pi wanted to go to the stadium every day to watch the game, but take him with him, he walked around the side of the court again, not at all to watch the game, more like looking for someone, if it wasn't for the fact that this kid was only ten years old, Yuan Yun would definitely think that he had taken a fancy to someone's daughter, so he was looking for it so hard.

Cao Zhang is a small mallet, you must catch him in his hand wherever he goes, otherwise he will not pay attention, he either wants to find those bears to fight alone, or he is mad with the wild dogs on the side of the road, teach him arithmetic, this thing is still not clear why one plus one cannot equal eleven.

Cao Zhi, a five-year-old child, is now full of all kinds of ways to see Xia Qinglou, and a few times even steals from those talented scribes to drink, but he gets drunk and talks nonsense in Yuan Yun's study for an afternoon, and finally vomits all over the bed, and finally falls asleep.

It seems that Cao Jie is the most well-behaved, although he always changes his disgusting self, and his speech is always very vicious, and the young lady's temper will drop things, and he likes to gossip about himself everywhere, likes to ask the eldest sister for pocket money, likes to cheat on the second sister's jewelry, likes to coax Qing'er to sing to her, likes to scold him after falling asleep Yuan Yun is a god, likes to ...... Wait a minute, this little girl is still very annoying.

"What are we going to eat today? Those fried pork cutlets yesterday were delicious, and Brother Yuan will make them again. Cao Jie rushed to Yuan Yun's side, and began to reel in the line, preparing to take the kite and go back to Yuan's mansion to eat, naturally it must be Yuan Yun who cooks.

Yuan Yun glanced at the kite that was gradually falling from the sky, and then shook his head and said, "Today, your sister Qinghe asked us to go to her for dinner, don't think about the pork cutlet." ”

Hearing this, Cao Zhang immediately jumped up from a city defender who had been 'knocked down' by him, and then shouted: "Brother Yuan can also make pork cutlets at Sister Qinghe's, anyway, it's not far from the kitchen." ”

kicked Cao Zhang over, commanded a soldier to fight with him, and then pulled back Cao Zhi, who climbed on the edge of the city wall and posed as a talented man overlooking the mountains, and then broke away Cao Pi, who was dragging himself and begging to go to the stadium, and then gave a middle finger to Cao Ang, who was watching the excitement on the side, what a sad kindergarten aunt, damn, now a day is going to be spent on these little devils, if it weren't for Qing'er to take care of him, it is estimated that he Yuan Yun would have gone crazy a long time ago.

……

"The spies sent to Wancheng reported that Zhang Xiu had not acted rashly, and at this moment, after my father set out on the expedition, Wancheng only closed the city gate and blocked the passes along the way, but there was no sign of sending troops." On the frame of the car returning to Cao's mansion, Cao Ang said very seriously.

Yuan Yun was very grateful that on the return trip, Cao Ang put Cao Jie's little bastards in another carriage, and he could finally breathe a sigh of relief, but he took pity on Qing'er and took care of him in the past.

Stretching comfortably, Yuan Yuncai replied: "It's best if Zhang Xiu doesn't come, our guards Xu Du will be much easier, although it has wasted a lot of preparation you have made, but no war is a good thing, Cao Sikong and they are also more down-to-earth on the front line." ”

Cao Ang nodded and said: "My preparation is nothing, although it is harder, but if Zhang Xiu does not come, at least there will be fewer deaths, Xu Du only left 8,000 defenders, 5,000 or newly incorporated soldiers, the age is less than eighteen years old, if the war starts, these people are afraid of heavy casualties, so Zhang Xiu will not come, I am the happiest." ”

Renhou is a good thing, but Yuan Yun hopes that Cao Ang will be more cunning, after all, if he wants to survive in this troubled world, relying on benevolence is really like crossing a single-plank bridge, stepping on the air once and it will be over. Shaking his head, he shook off some unlucky thoughts, and then continued: "How is the situation on Yuan Shu's side?" And what was the reaction of the court? ”

Cao Ang replied: "Yuan Shu claimed to have an army of 300,000, decided to defend Shouchun, and swore a poisonous oath to fight with our Cao clan to the end, Lu Bu and Liu Bei's soldiers and horses also moved, but Lu Bu's cavalry drove towards the vicinity of Shouchun, but they traveled ten miles a day, and they really wanted to wait for him to participate in the war, I am afraid that my father has returned with a great victory, Liu Bei is very active, there are only 8,000 men and horses in his hands, and he also brought 6,000 people to participate in the coalition army, which is still a loyal person." As for the court, I'm not worried, Mr. Wen Ruo's methods are not something that those old officials in the court can defeat, and I replaced all the generals of the forbidden army with the children of the Cao family, and some people with different intentions can't cause a big mess. However, recently there is some interesting news in Jingzhou, saying that Liu Biao opened the pass to Xu Du and decided to trade with us, this Liu Biao is estimated to have seen the interests inside, just salt, Liu Biao can have a large amount of taxes every year, and it is not impossible for Brother Yun to open a hotel in his territory in the future. ”

Yuan Yun heard Cao Ang mention Liu Biao's open pass, and began to calculate how much he could earn, so rough calculation, Xu Du currently only has salt and spirits two goods that can cause a trade deficit, if you give more time, after the expansion of your own workshop, a large number of advanced things will be produced, and the trade deficit will become bigger and bigger, until one day the currency in Liu Biao's territory can also be controlled by yourself, then you don't have to fight, and you can drag the other party to death by relying on the economy alone, Then as long as the people who can't survive in Liu Biao's territory are instigated to rebel, Jingzhou will soon be in the bag, and it is estimated that if it is really so smooth, the subsequent battle of Chibi can be saved.

It's just that why did Liu Biao choose to open the pass at this time, those passes between the mountains have been closed for so long, not only hindering the passage of Cao's side, but also hindering the people from Liu Biao's side from coming, and the two sides have basically become insulators. Liu Biao is indeed very timid, and he really doesn't understand how the little man thinks about the problem.

Glancing at the frame walking side by side on the opposite side, Cao Jie was trying to poke his head out of the window, and then stuck out his tongue vigorously to protest, Yuan Yun smiled, casually closed the curtain of his frame, and then said to Cao Ang: "Is there any news from Yuan Shao?" ”

Cao Ang glanced at Yuan Yun playfully, and then replied, "You are asking Yuan Xi who was crippled by you, right?" Yuan Shao saw Yuan Xi's appearance, he was so angry that he couldn't eat for a few days, and he was going to ask his father Xingshi for the crime, but after knowing that Yuan Xi had hidden the assassins of the Pavilion, he endured it, and Gongsun Zan was very unexpectedly killed from the turtle shell, and broke through several camps set up by Yuan Shao in a row, so Yuan Xi's affairs did not happen, count Brother Yun, you are lucky, otherwise your father will be punished, by the way, Yuan Shao seems to be in a hurry to marry him after Yuan Xi went back, and found the daughters of many big families, As a result, Yuan Xi refused all of them, and he didn't say anything about it, which made those big families very annoyed by this. ”

"Huh? And what's going on? Yuan Xi would actually refuse a woman? Isn't he the one who doesn't even let go of pigs as long as the other party is a mother? How could you refuse? Ah, by the way, is there a prospective daughter-in-law named Zhen Mi among those prospective daughters-in-law selected for Yuan Xi? Yuan Yun suddenly asked suspiciously.
