Xu Du, Prime Minister's Mansion.

Cao Ying broke the high cadres in Bingzhou, and Cao Ying led the army back to Xudu before the third day, and was rewarded by Liu Xie, the son of heaven, and was named prime minister.

Therefore, the Prime Minister's Mansion is actually the former Sikong Mansion.

"Good knife, really good knife."

In a small school field in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Cao Ying was also holding a knife that resembled a Chu knife. Shouted a few good knives.

Cao Ying has a Chinese face, not handsome, or heroic, and he is relatively short. But the heroic aura on his body is as domineering as he is.

And the knife in Cao Ying's hand is called similar to the Chu knife because its blade is black and has no luster. In terms of charm, there is a gap with Liu Feng's previous Chu Dao.

Not to mention, Liu Feng has already upgraded the Chu Dao. The degree of beauty, as well as the durability of the surname, are much better than Cao Ying's.

But Cao Ying is the same as Sun Quan, he doesn't know about Ben, and he still treats him as a baby.

"Ming Gong, in addition to being a little different from Liu Feng's Chu knife in appearance, this knife is even more different in appearance, it is made of high-grade black iron, whether it is durability or sharpness, it is stronger than Liu Feng's Chu knife, so it is named black knife by his subordinates."

On the school field, it was not only Cao Ying who was standing, but also full of pets.

"In other words, the two armies are facing each other, I am strong, and he is weak?" The smile on Cao Ying's face remained unchanged and said.

"Yes, if the two armies face each other, Liu Feng's Chu Dao may not be able to hold out for a few times." Full Pet nodded.

"What's going on over there in Wancheng?" Cao Ying's eyes flashed, and he said.

"General Cao Ren is stepping up preparations for the expedition to Jiangxia." Man Pet replied with a fist.

"Can you forge two thousand black knives and supply Cao Ren before you set out on the expedition?" Cao asked the key question.

This knife looks good, but if it can't be equipped before Cao Ren goes on the expedition, it will be empty joy.

"This, a little difficult, this knife seems to be dexterous, but the process of forging is extremely cumbersome, a good craftsman, ten days may not be able to forge a handle. Now that the war is imminent, I am afraid it will be too late. Hearing this, Manzhong said with some shame.

"Well, forget it then. First gather craftsmen with exquisite memories from all over the country, carry out forging, and when Lone goes south, let's equip it on a large scale. Cao Ying was a little regretful when he heard this, but he was not embarrassed. After thinking about it, he nodded.

Over the years, Cao Ying first attacked Yuan Xi, Yuan Shang, Yuan Tan, and then attacked Gao Gan, and the army was already exhausted and could be regarded as the end of a strong crossbow. It is necessary to take a break for a while.

And this time is at least February and March.

If Cao Ren's attack on Jiangxia goes well, this rest time may be extended for another year or two. In one or two years, with the strong forces in the north, it should be able to equip the army on a larger scale.

"No." Hearing this, the full pet raised his fist and promised.

"Now that Liu Biao is dead, Liu Cong's little doll has succeeded to the throne, and she is similar to a puppet. Cai Mao and Kuai Yue are both lamb-like figures, so there is nothing to worry about. The only ones who are lonely and worried are Liu Feng and Jiangdong Sun. In this battle, if Cao Ren can do his best and attack Jiangbei, he can also go south to Jiangxia. It is not far from the unification of the world. Cao Ying smiled and said.

There was some complacency.

It's no wonder that Cao Ying raised troops as a weak, step by step, and said that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were stronger than him, but they were all eliminated by him.

If Cao Ren can eliminate Liu Feng, the world will be peaceful, and it will be almost the same.

Cao Ying is a little complacent, which is also human nature.

"Since Dong Zhuo, the world has been annexed, and wars have broken out. The people are miserable, and now the Ming Duke is sweeping away the traitors in the world with a sword, and he will definitely leave his name in history. Man Chong smiled slightly, this is definitely not a compliment, for a country, Cao Ying is really a hero, if there is no Cao Ying, the world still doesn't know how to mess up. How a thousand miles uninhabited.

Cao Ying's merits are very high.

"Whether it is left in history or not, I don't care. What I care about alone is the process of sweeping the world. Fighting with others, fighting wits, and having endless fun. Cao Ying smiled slightly, a little disapproving.

But the complacency on his body is a little thicker.

Regarding the changes that have occurred in Cao Ying's body, Man Pet is a little uneasy. But after thinking about it, if today, there are almost no more things that can cause trouble to Cao Ying.

Powerful, invincible in the world.

When the news of Cao Ren's success in conquering Jiangxia came, the only remaining enemy of Cao Ying was Sun Quan. What's uneasy?

Man Pet smiled and dissipated the uneasiness in his heart.

As for Liu Feng, Man Chong is no longer in his eyes. It's just a martial artist who can fight well, and General Cao Ren raised 23,000 troops to attack Jiangxia, which is a safe and secure thing.

Cao Ying has always been shrewd because of Manpet's handling of things, and after listening to the information brought by Manpet, he doesn't attach too much importance to Liu Feng.

Just like full of pets, he handed over Liu Feng to Cao Ren, and Cao Ying was very relieved.

Cao Ying is a unified north, and he is a little complacent. But Liu Feng is still struggling with his own one-third of an acre, and he is trying his best to increase his strength.

Since a month and a half ago, Xu Zheng, Huo Jun and Zhou Shun went to Changsha with their respective subordinates and cronies, Liu Feng has not paid much attention to the issue of Changsha.

After all, Xu Zheng's talent is limited, and it is too difficult to develop. Moreover, Huo Jun also had to spend some time consolidating and commanding the 5,000-strong garrison first.

For a period of time, there was no way to replenish Jiangxia, expand the baggage, the number of soldiers, and so on.

Liu Feng's current energy is still focused on buying grain, as well as forging a perfect version of the Chu Dao, the Fire Ox Array, and so on. That's the most important thing.

The Fire Bull Array is against Cao Ren, and it is very important at the moment. Grain is ready to expand its power, and next year is very important. The Chu knife is prepared to be used in the Battle of Chibi as a killer weapon, a super blade.

It can be said that it is an important matter throughout the present and the future.

And these things, all going well.

At this time, Liu Feng consulted Jiang Wan about the progress of the matter in the study, and among these three major events, the purchase of grain and the assembly of cattle were all in charge of Jiang Wan.

In the study, Liu Feng and Jiang Wan sat in the primary and secondary positions. Jiang Wan raised his fist and said: "A month ago, Fei Guan, Xu Tian, Zhang Dao and others successively transported grain to the granary, with a total of 620,000 stones. At present, there are 2.48 million stone of grain in the Xiling granary. ”

Jiang Wan is a person who has a good surname and a strong sense of responsibility, and almost all of these over-the-top data can be blurted out.

"Not bad. In just over a month, they delivered 620,000 stone of grain to Xiling, which shows that they are all working hard. Liu Feng is quite satisfied with this figure. I couldn't help but laugh.

Fei Guan was responsible for purchasing the grain of the landlord Haoqiang, and Xu Tian and Zhang Dao were responsible for purchasing the grain of the people. The two sides are two-pronged, and the grain is really rolling into the Xiling granary.

"How's the preparation of the Fire Bull Formation?" After all, food is the important thing for next year, and the Fire Bull Array is the magic weapon of the other party Cao Ren, so Liu Feng's mind quickly turned to the Fire Bull Array.

"A thousand cows, already assembled. Zhang Wei has also created a thousand pairs of hoods with spikes, and if Cao Ren comes, he will be ready to fight at any time. Jiang Wan's answer was still beautiful.

Liu Feng was overjoyed, after the completion of this fire bull array, it was an invincible weapon in the world, waiting for Cao Ren to crash into the muzzle.

After all, it was already expected, so Liu Feng quickly put away the joy in his heart. Regained his composure, and asked in a deep voice: "What about Mingma, what is the attitude of the people towards forcibly recruiting ploughing cattle?" ”

"There is some public indignation, but it is within the scope of acceptance. It shouldn't be able to set off a big storm. Jiang Wan said calmly.

Everything went well, and Liu Feng completely put his mind at ease. The question now is when Cao Ren came.

"Is there any news from Wancheng?" Liu Feng pondered for a moment and asked Jiang Wandao.

"The army's training is becoming more and more frequent, and it is estimated that it is not far from Cao Ren to send troops to Jiangxia." Whether it is the baggage situation in the rear or the intelligence in the front, Jiang Wan knows it well, so his answers are very organized.

"Hmm." Liu Feng nodded, these situations are under control, Cao Ren is gathering troops, he is also assembling troops, he temporarily mobilized a thousand soldiers from Zhang Guibu from Huang Zhong, and also brought Chen Da, who had just expanded to a thousand people, back to Xiling. With Pang Tong and Deng Ai, there are now 5,000 soldiers and horses in Xiling City.

As soon as the news of Cao Renxing's troops came, he could join the fire bull array and enter the five cities in Jiangbei by ferry.

"My subordinates found out that there is something in Jiangdong, which is very mysterious." Speaking of the front line, Jiang Wan couldn't help but think of the news that someone came from Wu County in the morning, which was a little mysterious.

"What's the matter?" Liu Feng was slightly stunned in his heart, except for Zhou Yu's crusade against a few Shanyue, Jiangdong's affairs were some trivial things, what could make Jiang Wan value it so much.

"Some time ago, Sun Quan gathered skilled blacksmiths from all over the country to Wu County. His subordinates suspected that Sun Quan had developed the Chu Knife. Jiang Wan said with a smile.

This is really good news. As one of the core figures in Jiangxia, Jiang Wan is fully aware that the current quality of Chu Dao has improved by leaps and bounds.

And the gang in Jiangdong are still making, old Chu knives. Not only does it cost a lot of manpower and material resources, but if the two sides fight, the Sun clan will also lose its troops.

It doesn't get any better news than this.

Liu Feng was stunned for a moment, remembering that he only gave Man Zhong a Chu knife and asked him to take it to the Central Plains for development. And how can Jiangdong develop the Chu knife without a reference? Immediately, Liu Feng remembered that when he fought with Pan Zhang, Pan Zhang fled, probably picking up a Chu knife.

Thinking about it, Liu Feng shouted and rejoiced.

This matter is good, originally only put a sleeve on Cao Ying, but I didn't expect Sun Quan to get into the sleeve himself. There is a saying that is called "self-inflicted iniquity, and you shall not live".

Just when Liu Feng was secretly refreshed, a soldier hurriedly walked in. After entering the door, he immediately bowed down and said: "Lord, there is news from Wancheng that Cao Ren has raised troops." ”

Liu Feng stood up suddenly, looked to the north, and finally came. I can't wait.

At this time, the fire bull array was completed, and Liu Feng was full of confidence.
