Chapter 249: Dont say you didnt predict what you said
Just one day south of Hadong County, you can see the frozen river surface.
This is also a strange sight. Later generations did not seem to see the Yellow River being frozen because the water flow was too fast after all.
But what you don’t know is that the Yellow River has not changed its course at this time, and the river water is still relatively gentle.
The Hukou Waterfall, which became famous in later generations, had not even taken shape at this time.
Lu Bu got up early in the morning and yawned.
Suddenly my nose moved and I smelled an alluring fragrance.
Not only Lu Bu, but also the others who were accompanying him looked curiously at the smoke from the kitchen in the distance.
Zhang Fei shouted: "Eat quickly, we'll set off as soon as we're done." As he said that, he took a mouthful of canned beef.
Lu Bu couldn't help but licked his dry lips, walked closer, and asked with a smile: "Brother Yide, are you eating delicious food?"
Zhang Fei turned around and found that Lu Bu and his party had also gotten up. He shouted to the team members on the side: "Lao San, send General Lu and his friends a piece of food."
"Here we go!"
Gao Laosan came over with a steaming bundle and placed it on the snow. The bundle unfolded, revealing several tin cans inside.
Zhang Fei introduced them one by one: "This is beef, this is soybean, this is fish, this is peach...Hey, third child, why are there no pancakes?"
Gao Laosan glanced sideways at Lu Bu and whispered to Zhang Fei: "The supervisor said that the compressed biscuits are a secret recipe and cannot be shown to the public."
Hearing this, Zhang Fei awkwardly looked towards Wei Palace not far away. He couldn't help but show off and almost exposed himself, haha.
Wei Gong and Zhang Fei exchanged glances.
Zhang Fei understood and said to Lu Bu: "What, we don't have dry food anymore, didn't you bring it yourself?"
Lu Bu was still immersed in the shock of those cans, and did not notice the strange movements of Zhang Fei and Wei Gong. Hearing this, he nodded and said: "Dry food, there is dry food. Come here, send some dry food."
When Zhang Fei saw that Lu Bu was about to hand it to him, he hurriedly said, "I don't need it. Just eat it yourself. I'm full."
After eating the delicious and filling compressed biscuits, I am not looking for trouble to eat your stinky dry food again.
Zhang Fei decisively rejected Lu Bu's kindness and poured the last piece of beef into his mouth.
···
"There seems to be smoke not far ahead?"
"It is estimated that there is another caravan going south. Do you want to rob it?"
On a hill less than two miles away from the river bank, two men lay on haystacks and looked towards the river.
One of the men also wore protective gear on his head. At first glance, he knew that it was the standard headgear of ordinary soldiers in the Han Dynasty.
The other one was a one-eyed dragon who was blind in one eye. Perhaps due to restrictions, he simply used a rag to cover the bad eye, which gave him a more ruthless look.
"Go back and ask them first. Depending on the number of people, our brothers may not be able to eat enough."
"Smell, sniff... it smells so good, it must be meat, they have meat to eat!" the man wearing protective gear said excitedly.
The one-eyed dragon couldn't help but twitch his Adam's apple, and swallowed several times. Finally, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he grabbed a handful of snow and stuffed it into his mouth.
When the other man in protective gear saw this, he also followed suit. The cold white snow melted in his mouth, instantly waking him up.
"These people dare to light a fire and cook in the wilderness. It seems they are not an ordinary business trip. At least the number of people is not what we can match. I think this order is unbearable, so let's forget it."
The one-eyed dragon analyzed the situation calmly, while the man in protective gear beside him felt very sorry, but it seemed that he still didn't want to give up.
at this time.
stop!
Peng~
The one-eyed dragon raised his head in surprise, reacted quickly, and quickly turned to the right to avoid it.
The man in the protective gear was frightened. He saw the trembling arrow beside his head missing, and yellow soup flowed out from under his body.
"Uncle Han is amazing. You can be found in such a hidden place."
"So your uncle is still your uncle. Let me go down here and arrest him and ask him where he is from."
Under the horrified gaze of the one-eyed dragon, seven or eight big men wearing white snow capes appeared quietly.
The leader had gray hair, his two thick arms were still bare-chested in the winter, and he was holding a strangely shaped crossbow in his hand.
Looking at the arrow that was inserted between the two of them, it was clearly shot by the old man.
Fortunately, the old man didn't seem to want their lives, and the arrow missed the middle of the two people's heads, just to scare them. Otherwise, it was hard for him to tell, and his companion's head would have been nailed directly there.
"I, we don't have any ill intentions." One-Eyed Dragon tried to defend.
But the men of the City Guards could not give them a good look, so they stepped forward and tied them up directly.
The one-eyed dragon originally wanted to resist, but when he looked up and saw the old man's crossbow pointed directly at his face, he lost all courage.
Take it back to camp.
Some inquiries.
When Lu Bu saw Wei Gong walking out of the tent, he hurriedly came over and asked, "Are you the spy sent by the thief?"
Wei Gong wiped off the blood on his hands, shook his head and said, "It's just two deserters."
Lu Bu nodded reluctantly.
Wei Gong directly handed him two bamboo cards and said, "But it also has something to do with Lu Zhonglang."
Lu Bu took the bamboo sign and frowned, "Are they Liangzhou soldiers?"
Wei Gong nodded in response, then took the bamboo sign and said, "I will let someone inform my second brother about this matter. Is there anything Lu Zhonglang wants to say?"
Lu Bu's eyes were filled with uncertainty. After thinking for a while, he said: "It should be Hua Xiong's subordinates. When we get to Hulao Pass, Lu will investigate the matter thoroughly and give an explanation to the Commander-in-Chief of the Guard."
Wei Gong looked directly at the change in Lu Bu's expression. After Lu Bu finished speaking, he responded: "Lü Zhonglang had better make sure that this matter has nothing to do with you, otherwise... don't say it was unforeseen."
Lu Bu's expression was not very good. He knew that Wei Gong's caravan was robbed, which made Wei Gong feel unhappy, but Wei Gong talking to him like this made Lu Bu feel equally unhappy.
Looking at Wei Gong's sinister gaze, he also prayed in his heart that his people did not participate in the plundering team, otherwise he would not be able to absolve himself of the blame if the Wei family got hold of something.
However, this matter of soldiers and bandits is really hard to explain.
Moreover, military officers in this era do not have that sense of prevention, and even the military officers themselves will get involved.
Marching and fighting is a hard job. Some people, in order to improve their food or have fun, will definitely think wrong when they pass by some small village and see a beautiful village girl.
As for caravans, it goes without saying that food is the best-selling commodity in this era. Generally, caravans will bring enough food on the road. Even if there is no food, the livestock pulling the cart will have enough to eat several meals.
Therefore, not to mention the sergeants who attacked Dong Alliance, even the Han troops who followed Lu Bu to guard Hulao Pass, and some of the sergeants or spies who went out on patrol would also go to fight against the autumn wind. This matter could not be avoided at all.
Of course, it couldn't be circumvented before because there was no one to supervise it.
Now...
The five hundred city guards were already watching eagerly to see who would be unlucky enough to hit the muzzle of the gun.
Just like Emiya said... don't say you didn't predict what you said!
Even if you kill a few more people, there will always be some people whose morals need to be stimulated by force.
