Chapter 196: Red Mansions (two in one)

The clatter of horse hooves stopped in front of the door of a square house.

The fence made of solid wood is only about half a foot high. Standing outside the door, you can see the simple layout and furnishings in the yard.

To the east of the yard is a small vegetable plot, which must be empty at this time of year. The soil in the vegetable plot clearly shows signs of being plowed deliberately.

Next to the vegetable field is a well, with a wooden eaves built over the well to prevent dirt from falling into the well.

Next to the well is a sink for laundry. It can be seen that it is carved out of stone. There is also a wooden support beside the sink.

There was a large washbasin with colorful patterns on the stand. When they saw the washbasin, people outside the hospital took a few more curious glances.

The maid who was leading the way saw this and said, "This is the enamel basin that the master ordered to make. It is a good item that has a price but no market."

Huang Yueying was stunned, "Enamel basin?" This was the first time I heard of such an object.

The maid said as she pushed open the courtyard door. What came into view was a sidewalk paved with bluestones. The maid took the lead and walked in.

Huang Yueying followed closely behind, looking towards the west.

To the west of the yard was a bare ginkgo tree with a swing tied to its trunk, which immediately attracted her attention.

On the other side of the swing, there is a huge bluestone, about as high as the knees. It is very large and can seat three or five people. The surface of the bluestone is polished very smooth. When I first saw it, I thought of lying on it in the summer.

It must be very pleasant to look up at the stars from above.

At this time, two futons were placed on the bluestone, and in the middle was a simple chessboard, filled with black and white chess pieces made of colored glaze (glass). A ginkgo leaf happened to fall on it, adding a bit of artistic conception.

"Miss, this is tonight's dinner. According to the master's instructions, I asked the cook to make it lighter."

When the master came back, the maid who had been assigned to serve him came out of the kitchen with a sumptuous and simple meal in her hand.

The maid who led the way introduced: "Miss, this is Ping'er. She is mainly responsible for the young lady's food and daily life. The cook in the kitchen was specially sent by the young master. She studied with Aunt Niu for a period of time before, and her craftsmanship must be very good."

"Ping'er has met Miss. I wonder where Miss would like to have dinner?" the little maid carrying the dishes asked respectfully.

Huang Yueying looked at the bluestone, and the little maid understood it, carried the dishes over, packed the chessboard into the room, and brought out a small low table.

The food was served, three dishes, one soup, a large glass of milk, mainly vegetarian dishes, the only meat dish... was a bowl of steamed eggs, do eggs count as meat dishes?

The little maid was afraid that Huang Yueying would think she was neglecting her, so she explained: "These dishes are all made according to the menu ordered by the young master. They are a little lighter. I hope the young lady won't be surprised."

Huang Yueying came closer, smelled it, shook her head and said, "No, it's already very good, and the cook's skills are really good. Although they are all vegetarian dishes, they are very satisfying."

The little maid nodded happily and winked at the cook who was peeping in the kitchen, so that the cook could rest assured that this master was a good person.

"that……"

Huang Yueying was a little hungry. After sitting down, she instinctively wanted to take off her bamboo hat and veil, but she looked up and saw two maids standing aside. She said with some embarrassment: "Can I trouble you to get out of the way?"

The two maids looked at each other.

The eldest maid was the one who received the order from Wei B. She nodded and hurriedly pulled the little maid into the kitchen.

"If the young lady has any instructions, you can call me by my name. We will wait in the kitchen. Oh, by the way, the young lady must drink up the entire glass of milk. This is what the young master ordered."

Huang Yueying nodded to her gratefully.

After the two left, Huang Yueying took off her bamboo hat and veil, revealing a sallow face...

???

"This milk tastes good!"

"Old Chentou,

Give me another drink."

"Hahaha, this must be the first time for Coach Zhang to drink milk, right?"

The wind on the grassland is slightly colder than in Guanhai. The freshly squeezed milk is warm, and drinking it makes your stomach warm.

Zhang Fei drank seven or eight bowls in a row, and finally burped happily.

The field of vision moved up, and through the distorted heat waves of the flames, a burning tent in the distance was unusually eye-catching.

"Brother, this is the second tribe. I didn't expect that we lost more than 300 infantry in just two charges."

Guan Yu frowned, holding a leg of lamb in his hand and munching on it.

Liu Bei, who was sitting next to him, also frowned, picked up a bowl of milk, took a sip, and sighed helplessly.

The infantry he brought this time were all recruited with great difficulty. There were 3,000 infantry. Unexpectedly, nearly 20% of them died in less than ten days.

While sighing, he had to sigh at the power of the black armor.

The dead infantry were all ordinary soldiers without black armor. Those capable black-armored soldiers not only suffered no casualties, but also made great achievements. The black-armored soldiers were indispensable for being able to take down two tribes so smoothly this time.

Of course, the one hundred city guards brought by Zhang Fei are the main force, but the role played by the one hundred city guards is limited after all. Facing the Xiongnu tribe with as few as three to four thousand people, the one thousand infantry wearing black armor will rise.

The role is crucial.

"For the two tribes, in addition to the one thousand black armors we have already obtained, we can also get one thousand more sets, which is two thousand black armor soldiers."

Liu Bei showed a smile, his eyes full of longing.

When Guan Yu heard this, he nodded slightly to express his agreement. At the same time, he threw away the bones in his hands and picked up the Qinglong Yanyue Sword beside him.

"I'm going to get used to it a little longer. Brother, go to bed early tonight." Guan Yu said and walked towards Zhang Fei.

Liu Bei raised his eyes and saw Guan Yu and Zhang Fei chatting for a few words. The two found an open place to practice with their weapons.

When the infantry and city guards who were resting saw this, they gathered over one after another, and they cheered one after another.

Seeing this scene, Liu Bei felt a little uncomfortable.

He didn't know when he started to feel Guan Yu's alienation from him.

Perhaps it was because he was too neurotic, but he always felt that in recent days, his second brother Guan Yu was deliberately trying to get closer to his third brother Zhang Fei.

As for Zhang Fei, Liu Bei smiled bitterly. Although he still called himself "big brother", he could clearly feel that Zhang Fei was not as obedient as before. Now Zhang Fei is not only independent, but also very good at grasping the relationship with his two brothers.

distance.

That's right, it's about grasping the distance between the three brothers.

Zhang Fei's position has completely shifted to Wei B's. He is no longer the tough-minded big brother he was before, and I will do whatever you ask me to do.

Liu Bei knew that Zhang Fei resented him in his heart for taking Guan Yu away without saying a word. If he had not left him without saying goodbye, the three brothers would not be so divided today.

It's a pity, one wrong step, one wrong step after another.

Now Liu Bei can only put on an expression of blessing, and from time to time encourage Zhang Fei to follow Wei B and make a world of success.

In order to continue to create a great image of a loyal and loyal brother in Zhang Fei's heart.

"Hahaha, second brother, you can't do it. This Qinglong Yanyue Sword is not as useful as my Zhangba Snake Spear."

"Haha, third brother is joking. If I hadn't let you go, you wouldn't be able to support it anymore."

"Hey, second brother, why don't you ask me if I've tried my best?"

Zhang Fei suddenly jumped back a few steps as he spoke, and the Zhangba snake spear in his hand suddenly split into two, and said: "I learned a two-handed stick technique in Changshan a few days ago. Second brother, be careful."

"oh?"

Guan Yu's expression was solemn, he pushed the Qinglong Yanyue Sword hard on the grass, and looked at Zhang Fei curiously.

I saw Zhang Fei take a deep breath, and a big bag seemed to bulge in his chest. His whole body's energy and energy changed drastically in an instant, as if a tiger was about to pounce on him at any time.

Although I don’t know what stick skills Zhang Fei learned in Changshan, the sense of crisis he brought to Guan Yu skyrocketed at this time.

Guan Yu did not dare to neglect, he raised the Qinglong Yanyue Sword and held it directly in front of him, which could be regarded as both offensive and defensive.

Dudu~

"Um?"

Zhang Fei, who was ready to go, suddenly turned back.

One hundred city guards affiliated with Zhang Fei also picked up their weapons and immediately entered combat mode.

Just when Liu Bei and the thousands of infantrymen were still looking confused, he saw a stream of light not far away lighting up the night sky.

Dudu, dudu~

The trumpet sounded again, and Zhang Fei's vigilant expression relaxed instantly. He turned back and shouted to Guan Yu: "Second brother, we will fight another day, a guest is coming."

"Guest?" Liu Bei also came over at this time.

Guan Yu looked at the stream of light with the same curiosity.

Not long after.

The sound of horse hooves came rolling in, and the leader was Sun Ce, who was wearing black armor, Hua Li, who was wearing standard stab-proof clothing, and Zhou Yu...

"Hahaha, Yide, I finally found you." Hua Cun said hello carelessly.

Zhang Fei also laughed and greeted him, including a hundred city guards, all of whom also looked cheerful.

Liu Bei and Sun Ce, on the other hand, looked at each other and just put their hands together politely.

Liu Bei looked behind Sun Ce and the others, and then he couldn't help but frown... Strange, why didn't he see Cao Mengde?

Liu Bei still didn't know that someone was playing a trick to be on the safe side, so Sun Ce had no choice but to obey.

When the two armies meet.

Zhang Fei pulled Hua Cun aside and asked in a low voice: "Did you bring it?"

Hua Cun smiled and looked towards a certain figure hiding in his team.

Zhang Fei glanced along his line of sight, smiled, and said nothing.

The next day.

I thought Zhang Fei and Hua Kun would force the two armies to act together.

Liu Bei and Sun Ce, who were thinking about how to reject them, suddenly received a surprising piece of information.

Hua Cun brought the two of them together, took out a map, and said: "Brother Xuande, Brother Bofu, come and see, this is the distribution map of the Xiongnu tribes we have collected. There are seven in total closest to us.

tribe……"

After a stick of incense.

Liu Bei and Sun Ce each took Guan Yu and Zhou Yu back to their respective camps.

They could never figure out when the Wei family had obtained such clear information about the Huns. Not only did they have the exact location of the tribe, but they also recorded the tribe's approximate number of people, as well as basic defenses and strategies.

For example, Liu Bei has obtained a tribe strategy. If he follows the strategy provided by Hua Cun to attack that tribe, he only needs to use 1,000 black armors and Zhang Fei's 100 city guards to cover him, and he can win it without any effort.

The main fighting force of the tribe.

The same is true for Sun Ce. As long as they strictly abide by the strategy provided by Hua Cun, they will be able to take down two small tribes of about 3,000 who surrendered before noon.

After returning to the camp, Sun Ce handed the rubbings of the Kantu map to Zhou Yu, and at the same time analyzed the general situation of the two tribes with Zhou Yu.

After getting all the information, Zhou Yu could not think of a better strategy, because the strategy given by Hua Cun was the simplest and most practical.

Zhou Yu immediately looked at the hundred city guards led by Hua Kun.

He frowned and said: "Master, the Wei family must have sent a master over. Although I don't know how they got this information, but they were able to quickly integrate the information and give such a perfect strategy. This person's military skills must be far away."

Better than me."

Sun Ce nodded solemnly. Although he was very happy to pick up two tribes for nothing, the more he came into contact with the people of the Wei family, the more he felt that the Wei family was unfathomable, as if in front of the Wei family, all of them were

An elk is generally powerless in the face of a tiger.

The two people hiding in Hua Cun's squad.

"Okay, brother Xiaozhao, our mission is completed, what should we do next?"

Hearing this, Hao Zhao unconsciously touched the package on the saddle, shook his head and said: "Mr.

Follow up, I am your eyes anyway."

Xun Duan sat on the horseback and laughed. He glanced at the package that Hao Zhao was protecting intentionally or unintentionally, nodded and said: "In that case, let's follow you for two more days and finally come to the grassland.

I’m quite interested in the scenery here.”

Hao Zhao chuckled and said, "It's okay, I'll listen to you sir."

In the blink of an eye...two days later.

The teams of Liu Bei and Sun Ce merged again, this time the two teams gathered by a stream.

Exhausted, Sun Ce took off his black armor and jumped shirtless into the cold stream. The dried blood on his body melted instantly, and uu Kanshu www.uukanshu.com soon turned the transparent stream red.

"Huh, feel good." Sun Ce picked up a handful of water and splashed it on his face to make himself look more energetic.

Zhou Yu also took off the sword from his waist. He took out the sword with some pain and looked at it. It was already full of gaps.

"In two days, four tribes were destroyed and nearly 30,000 Hu tribes were killed." Zhou Yu looked at Sun Ce.

Sun Ce smiled bitterly, slumped down in the stream, holding his body tired, and replied: "Now I finally know how the Wei family destroyed a tribe of 100,000 people with only 2,000 city guards. It is simply unbelievable. They

It’s like he knows everything.”

Zhou Yu nodded slightly, took off his boots, and put his feet into the stream. The cold and biting stream water made him shiver.

"I eavesdropped for a while last night, and there seemed to be a strange noise, and then I saw a red light rising quickly into the sky and disappearing in an instant. Although I don't know what it was, I must have something to do with it."

Sun Ce frowned slightly and looked at the city guards who were joking and joking not far away.

"Wei's method is obviously not as simple as it appears on the surface... We have been running rampant on the grassland for many days and have not been discovered by the Huns. This is simply impossible. Gongjin, do you still remember yesterday afternoon?

,Brother Hua Cun asked us to temporarily change the direction of progress."

Zhou Yu nodded and said, "Of course I remember. At that time, I vaguely sensed something was wrong. It seemed that he was deliberately avoiding something. Now that I think about it, could he have seen the Huns' movements in advance and intentionally let us avoid the Huns' scouts?"

"It's possible." Sun Ce said.

"Isn't that a foresight?" Zhou Yu looked in disbelief, "What is that red light?"
