Chapter 67: The Shrewd Liu Bei Cao Cao

Remember for a second [Think โ™‚รท Ke โ˜… Xiao โ–ณ said ยง Net . Org], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!

I have to say that the Huns sold things really cheaply, Liu Bei's piece of gold ingot, actually bought the five best horses in their tribe, although these five horses are not sweaty horses, but they are also first-class and good horses, in addition, Qin Shi Huang also bought several good mink fur, everyone got the mink fur, and immediately put it on their bodies.

The bitter cold in the northwest, the cold winds perennially harsh the land, especially in the coldest winter of the year, it is not an exaggeration to compare the wind to a sharp blade that cuts bones, and even in summer the temperature is not too high in this climate.

When Huang Xiaowei and the others came to Dahan, they didn't wear a down jacket, but simply put on a coat and set off, because they didn't expect that the spring here would be so cold.

While waiting, a few people were already frozen, and at this time, two or three mink skins were draped on their bodies, and under the cover of the fluffy mink fur, Huang Xiaowei and the others felt a strong warmth, and this also caused Huang Xiaowei and a few people to look like a hairy man when they were far away.

After preliminary calculations, Huang Xiaowei and the others bought a total of more than 20 pieces of high-quality mink, there are tigers, wild wolves, and there are many types, and the most important thing in this place is fierce beasts.

But they bought so much that they couldn't use even two or three pieces per person.

In fact, it was mainly Qin Shi Huang and Meng Tian who wanted to buy more, they thought that after Jiang Mingyue and Bu Xianglian gave birth, they should be able to use it, Huang Xiaowei's hobby is to join in the fun, so he also bought a few pieces for Dongfang Qing, and he didn't know when he would be able to use them.

Hey, don't say it, Huang Xiaowei really made him get together this time, because at this time, Dongfang Qing, Jiang Mingyue, and Bu Xianglian had already driven to the hospital for prenatal checkups, and as long as Comrade Huang Xiaowei went back, he would immediately know the good news.

Not only buying horses and mink, but also the hospitable Huns specially killed two sheep and three chickens for Huang Xiaowei and them, and several people sat in the tent eating barbecue and drinking mare's milk wine.

And when Huang Xiaowei and the others were eating, the tent was full of Huns, and these people all had a characteristic, that is, they all served Huang Xiaowei with a smile on their faces.

What kind of food is enough to eat, I don't need to kill a few sheep for you, hey, is your leg hurting, I'll give you a massage.

For example, Liu Bei and Cao Cao, who are now eating a chicken by themselves, are called a Huan, and there are two young and beautiful Hun women who beat their legs when they are done......

All this fight was only because the Hun herdsman poured Cao Cao a glass of wine during the meal, and the old man threw him a gold ingot as a reward.

If you want to say that this guy is also a broken mouth, you just honestly serve a few rich people, but after Cao Cao gave him a reward, he rushed out of the big tent like crazy, holding a gold ingot in his hand to the people of the tribe, shouting loudly: "Local tyrants, there are local tyrants!" As soon as I poured him a glass of wine, he gave me a piece of gold, still ten percent gold. โ€

Hulala, just because of the words of this Hun herdsman, groups of Hun people with dreams of making a fortune poured into the big tent and began to serve Huang Xiaowei and a few others.

This Cao Cao and Liu Bei are really shrewd enough, and they don't forget to carry gold with them wherever they go, if there is no gold to open the way today, the five of them will either continue to hide behind the small mound and freeze and starve, or they will be caught in a cell and eaten in a cell in the name of a spy by the Huns.

But...... It is easy to understand that Liu Bei Cao Cao has money on him, after all, he is a rich man, but what they carry with them is not modern banknotes, but gold, which is a bit scary.

You know, today's rich people don't even bother to carry money in their pockets when they go out, and they always swipe their cards, let alone take gold, which rich person can be so stupid? There are a hundred ways to show off their wealth in this world, why should they use the most tiring and easy to laugh at.

But Liu Bei and Cao Cao, the two rich men, did this, not because they were stupid, nor because they wanted to show off their wealth anytime and anywhere, on the contrary, this can better reflect the shrewdness of the two old men, visual inspection, and Liu Bei Cao Cao's research on economics is also very thorough.

They clearly understand that no matter when and where, no matter how the world changes, gold and silver will always be the best circulation, and they are also recognized by people all over the world, and paper money ...... Don't look at what dollars are so high now, but in a few hundred years...... You can still tell the value of a piece of waste paper and a piece of gold, right?

In other words, it is also a helpless move, because global travel ....... Let them deeply see the gap between paper money and gold, and they used to go out to get tickets.

Since many of the places where the two old men went were inaccessible and uninhabited, the common people who lived there, let alone the renminbi and the dollar, could only accept bartering or ...... Gold!

In this way, the two old men developed a habit that they could not bring anything when they went out, but they must bring a few gold ingots, which is in stark contrast to Qin Shi Huang's ability to go out without anything and the jade seal.

After eating and drinking, the five of them were taken to a new and gorgeous tent by a person who seemed to be a village chief in the Xiongnu tribe to rest, which is said to be the best tent to entertain foreign guests, which is also related to Liu Bei Cao Cao took five gold ingots in one go, and it is also because of the five gold ingots and the Xiongnu village chief that led to the Xiongnu royal court, there was not a single Xiongnu soldier to check the identity of Huang Xiaowei and several of them.

Just when Huang Xiaowei and the five of them were sleeping in the tent of the Huns, Huo Qubing from afar was rushing towards here on horseback.

........

Suddenly, the distant earth was dusty, the horse's hooves, the wheezing sound of the war horse, and the whipping of the soldiers, those young grass that had just emerged green shoots, were trampled into a mass of grass pulp by the horses' hooves in an instant.

A team of less than 1,000 Han soldiers rode quickly and sprinted between the meadows, the horses' hooves trampled on the soft ground, leaving a line of heavy hoof prints, and the red Chinese character battle flag and Huo character banner had already told us the identity of the visitor.

After Huo Quzhi led the elite cavalry to leave the Han army camp, he plunged into the desert, and estimated that he had run for more than 100 miles, and even came to the grassland with abundant water and grass.

Huo Quai's illness did not stop all the way, and led 800 elite horses to gallop wildly, rushing to ...... I don't know where the enemy troops are.......

Yes, Huo Qubing didn't know where his enemies were, and he didn't know where he was going........ To put it clearly, Huo Qubing is trying his luck and killing a mouse by a blind cat...... See if you can bump into the Huns.

But don't think that the champion Hou is a stunned young man with empty blood and a simple mind, because his battle is a surprise battle and an encounter battle.

Long-distance running, looking for enemies and duels, Huo Quai's trip can be summed up in these eight words.

How to put it, his approach, in terms of the art of war, is simply self-defeating, because soon, there are two Han generals who made the same moves as him, but they ushered in a complete defeat.

Speaking of which, Huo Qubing was also helpless to do this, and if he could, he didn't want to leave his first battle to the illusory luck to arrange.

Although there were many Huns in his troops, he only knew from the mouths of those Huns that there were several large and medium-sized tribes of the Huns in the depths of the desert, but even those Huns could not say the specific direction.

It's not that they're playing tricks, it's that they really can't tell Huo Quzhi an accurate direction.

Nomads are different from farming peoples, the city is the city, it will not move, it will always stop at the place where it was built, but the nomads belong to the circulating population, generally this year where the water and grass are particularly lush, they will move where, a year to say less to move him five or six times, which makes those Huns how to tell Huo to the specific parts of the Hun tribe.

Huo Quzhi also knew this, so he didn't say anything, and after identifying a direction, he rushed all the way like a bow and arrow off the string.

Don't look at him on the surface, he is very calm on the surface, and he chats with the soldiers beside him from time to time along the way, but Huo Quai's heart is also very bottomless.

He did not dare to guarantee that he would be able to find the tribes of the Huns for a surprise attack on this trip, and he did not dare to guarantee that he would not encounter a large number of Hun cavalry who came to encircle and suppress him.

It's not good that there are that kind of affordable Huns, who come to beat him when they see that they are few and easy to bully, and they are still the kind of people who are accurate to dozen......

In the past four or five hours, Huo Quzhi saw dozens of Hun scouts spying on their whereabouts from afar.

Every time he found a Hun scout, Huo Quai's mood would inevitably be heavy, he was very afraid that he would be surrounded and suppressed by the Huns, note that Huo Qubing was not worried about whether he would die in battle.

In fact, he was so confident that he believed that even if more than 10,000 Hun cavalry came to encircle and suppress him, he would be able to rush out with men.

What Huo Quzhi is really worried about is whether he will return in vain this time.

boasted of Haikou in front of Wei Qing, led 800 elite horsemen to come on a ride, and returned with less than 100 defeated troops...... This is what Huo Qubing is most afraid of.

If he didn't achieve any results this time, but instead lost his troops, then Wei Qing ...... In the future, I am afraid that he will never be let alone to lead the army, and Huo Qubing will enter a long wait.

Maybe when he was in his twenties, Wei Qing might give him a chance, but in that case, it would be at least three years.

Three years is too long for Champion Hou.

Therefore, Huo Qubing can only hope for this battle, hoping that he can gain something from this trip, and give Wei Qing, His Majesty, and himself an explanation.
