The military camp is a large village, and the Chinese army is a large tent.
Cao Cao, Cao Ren, Xia Houyuan, Li Dian, and other lieutenants... everyone stared at the wooden basin filled with black soil, their eyes full of surprise?
It is true that this wooden basin was sent by Lu Yu, but what does it mean?
"Wen Lie? Mr. Lu Yu seriously mentioned that this small wooden basin can affect the situation in Yanzhou and can recruit 300,000 Yellow Turban thieves?"
Cao Ren couldn't help but asked Cao Xiu again.
After all, Zhuyu was in front, and now...Cao Ren and the generals are quite convinced of Lu Yu.
However, this kind of question sounded to Cao Xiu for the eighth time...
"Don't dare to tell lies in front of these uncles. This is what Young Master Lu Yu said."
During the past few days of transporting the "potted plants", Cao Xiu also thought hard for a long time. In the end, he couldn't figure out what this potted plant could do? How could it be related to the current situation?
It's better now. It seems that he is not the only one who is confused. Several uncles are also confused. This actually makes him feel somewhat balanced.
"What is growing in this?" Li Dian observed it for a long time and asked curiously.
"It's... soybeans!" Cao Xiu answered truthfully. "Master Lu Yu also ordered that we water them twice a day, morning and evening... Don't dare to neglect them, take care of them carefully along the way!"
Soybeans?
Now, everyone is even more confused?
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes slightly. After so many years of marching and fighting, he naturally knew that soybeans were a daily meal for civilians and also a concentrated feed for horses. They were extremely important in the army!
When I was at Taixue, my mentor Qiao Xuan also mentioned that legumes buried in the soil as auxiliary fertilizers can increase crop yields.
But... none of these seem to be related to the "potted soybean" in front of us!
It's not like Lu Yu wants to... use soybeans to bribe the moth thieves, right? If it were that simple, the three waves of envoys sent by Cao Cao would not have failed!
For a moment, even Cao Cao and Monk Zhang Er were confused...
"What was Lu Yu doing when I handed you this 'potted soybean plant'?" Cao Cao immediately asked...
"He..." Cao Xiu thought for a moment, "He ordered his subordinates to plant soybeans in the backyard of the Wei Mansion..."
"By the way, one more thing... Mr. Lu Yu has a saying. He said that Mr. Cao is extremely smart. When he sees the 'wooden basin', 'soybeans' and 'soil', he will naturally know his intentions."
Hiss... you know? You know a hammer?
Cao Cao tapped his forehead. He didn't know whether others understood it, but he himself couldn't understand it at all. He was completely confused!
"That's all... let's put this potted plant in the big tent..." Cao Cao waved his hand, not understanding, so he simply stopped thinking... "Wen Lie, since Lu Yu asked you to take care of this 'potted plant', you can just water it as usual every day.
…Don’t be careless!”
this…
Cao Xiu immediately half-knelt down, as if he had something to say. "Uncle..."
Normally, Cao Xiu should call Cao Cao General or Duke Cao in the military tent, but...he chose such an intimate title as "uncle", which has a special meaning.
It's obvious that he no longer wants to take care of flowers and soybean plants. He wants to fight on the battlefield... and achieve meritorious deeds!
How could Cao Cao not see this?
"Wen Lie, uncle knows that you are eager to perform meritorious service, but... Mr. Lu has mentioned that this 'potted plant' is related to the current situation in Yanzhou and the ownership of the three hundred thousand moth thieves, so he wants you to take care of it for a few days. After a few days, uncle
I’ll send you to fight on the battlefield again!”
call…
Cao Xiu exhaled slightly and reluctantly handed over his hand. "Well, the general will definitely fulfill his mission!"
In a word, Cao Xiu returned the money...
Cao Cao, Cao Ren, Xia Houyuan, and Li Dian all glanced at the "potted plant" growing soybeans in unison.
Not knowing why, I could only raise my head, put this matter aside, and continue to discuss major military matters.
"Come on, let's continue talking about these 300,000 Yellow Turban thieves...how to deal with them?"
"Brother...I propose..." Cao Ren said immediately, but...as expected, as long as the big problem ahead still exists, Cao Ren will be extremely distressed.
Three hundred thousand moth thieves, they are deeply influenced by Taiping Dao and firmly believe that "Heaven is dead and Huang Tian must stand". Their inherent concept of loyalty to "Huang Tian" cannot be shaken!
If they are wiped out, the losses will be heavy and both sides will suffer.
Collected, and suffered from no solution...
For a time, Cao Cao, his brothers and generals were all in a dilemma.
Unexpectedly, I was in trouble once when I lost the battle, but now I am still in trouble despite the good situation after winning the battle.
…
Chenliu County, Guanyi.
Different from the billowing smoke and dust on the frontline battlefield, it seems particularly quiet here.
Waves of incense floated from the second floor of Guanyi. Now, everyone in Guanyi knew that it was probably Xun Yu who went out wearing his sachet.
"Uncle, it's so early..."
Xun You had already been eating in the lobby on the first floor. While eating a light but substantial breakfast, he held a military book and glanced at his uncle Xun Yu who was coming downstairs.
According to his usual schedule, Xun Yu would get up after an hour, but today it was a bit early.
"We have agreed with Mr. Wei and Ms. Cai Yan that we will visit today...of course we have to get up earlier."
Xun Yu ate some food and planned to set off.
After all, he was communicating with "Yinlin". Xun Yu was looking forward to it and was quite solemn. He even added more spices to the sachet...
A pair of uncle and nephew walked leisurely.
"Uncle, have you heard of something strange?" Along the way, Xun You brought up something that the guards at the posthouse had been talking about recently.
"What's weird?" Xun Yu asked...
“It’s about Lu Yu.”
.”
"Tuben basin?" Xun Yu paused in his steps.
"Yes, I heard that soybeans are grown in this wooden basin. I asked someone to go to the Wei Mansion to inquire about it, and I found out that there were not only soybeans buried in the soil, but also a stele on the soybeans, with several poems written by Miss Cai Yan herself on it.
Big characters.”
Hmm…
Xun Yu's eyes rolled.
Soybeans, stele, big characters?
This is going to... break...
Associating these three keywords together, Xun Yu suddenly remembered something.
He immediately spoke. "No wonder, the servants of the Wei Mansion recently said that Mr. Lu Yu was planting soybeans. This was indeed true. Yesterday I was still speculating on the reason. When Gongda mentioned this stele, I suddenly realized that it was so!
"
Suddenly realized? So that’s it?
Xun You hurriedly looked at Xun Yu, with some curiosity in his eyes. "What did uncle realize? 'Yinlin' sent the 'wooden basin' to Duke Cao on the front line, and why?"
"Hahaha... Lu Yu, Lu Yu..." Xun Yu said with a wisp of beard. "As the saying goes, you will reap melons if you sow beans, and you will reap beans if you sow beans... There is no such thing as a bean. He is clearly the heart of the 300,000 Yellow Turban Army!"
Hmm...the hearts of the three hundred thousand Yellow Turban Army?
Xun You knocked on the forehead, he was a little confused... why Lu Yu was so mysterious, even his uncle became nagging.
Seeing Xun You's expression full of doubts...
Xun Yu looked around to make sure that no one was eavesdropping, and then explained. "Gongda can't understand it. This matter started from when I was the 'gong guarding order' in the past. 'Yinlin''s move was based on
The other person's way is also applied to the other person. If you want to explain it in detail, you might as well, Gongda listen to me tell a story first..."
"This is a conspiracy, or rather a small trick, laid out by Zhang Jiao, the 'Great Master' of Taiping Dao, during the Yellow Turban Uprising in the past, in order to get the followers to believe in the 'Huang Tian'!"
"In this process, it is the beans that play a crucial role. It can be said that it is this little 'bean' that has captured the hearts of millions of Yellow Turban thieves! The phrase "The sky is gone" rises in their hearts.
When he dies, Huang Tian Dang will be established, and when he is born in Jiazi, the world will be blessed!"
