Chapter 289, A Green Padded Coat, Three People's Love
The three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang, in the posture of knights in the world, beat the car's armor and bluffed the captain, who was stunned for a moment.
Just when Liu Bei was about to follow the imperial uncle's identity, continue to extend the topic and elevate himself.
To the north of Xuzhou, on the main road, several cavalry soldiers were flying towards the place where General Zuo was resting. It turned out that the leader of the soldiers, judging from their armor and clothing, was Cao Cao's army.
When the leader of the cavalry saw the three Liu Bei brothers dozens of steps away, he dismounted and ran towards the crowd, his eyes always fixed on the cold and arrogant man Yun Chang.
"Marquis Shouting, we have finally caught up with the general. It is snowing in Yanzhou, and my lord is afraid that Marquis Shouting will freeze in Dongjun, so he specially ordered Zao Di to rush to make cotton robes and give them to the general to keep out the cold."
"General Zuo's brocade robe and three generals' leather robes are also prepared!"
As the principal spoke, the soldiers behind him had already taken out three rather bright robes from the tight horse bags wrapped behind them.
Cao Cao was a man of true nature. Even if he was given rewards from thousands of miles away, they would still be different from those close to him.
A green cotton robe, which has the style of a later military coat, was presented to Yunchang. It is much more glamorous than the brocade robes and leather coats worn on the street.
"Cotton coat? What is cotton coat?"
"General Guan, I heard from my lord that cotton clothes are made by drawing cotton threads and spinning them to make cotton cloth, and then cutting them into clothes. This thing is the chief minister of agriculture. There is no other place in the world except Dongjun, Yanzhou.
"
"The first cotton-padded coat made by Zaojun Ling, my lord was full of praise after trying it on!"
"The East County workshop is working hard to make this thing. All the civil and military officials who Duke Cao promised to enlist in the army have a cotton coat as a gift!"
"My lord is thinking about the general. This green cotton robe is a cotton robe made by one of the top ten workshops. It is also General Guan. In my lord's heart, it is extremely important!"
"General Yuan Rang got the cotton-padded clothes on the day Xiao Xiao set out. General Yu Jin and General Le Jin are still waiting behind!"
As soon as Guan Yu heard about the robe made by Fang Guang, he was not happy at all. Then when he heard Xiao Xiao's full explanation of the origin of the item, his unhappiness was instantly driven away by a sense of pride.
Guan Yu took the cotton robe from Xiao Xiao's side and put it on his body. It was as soft as silk, but even softer.
In the north of Xuzhou, the early winter mountain wind blew by. Liu Bei and his colleagues all hunched their necks and hid their hands, but Guan Yu felt warm and comfortable, and he was not aware of the cold wind blowing by.
"This thing is really strange. Thank you so much, Mr. Guan, for your kindness. It's just an opportunistic thing, and it can't hide his dirty mind!"
There is something in Guan Yu's words, which is an insinuation of Fang Guang.
Everyone under Cao Cao's command was aware of the grievances between the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang and Sinong. The principal who sent the clothes had a smile on his face and pretended not to have heard what Guan Yu said.
The second brother said goodbye and waved the Qinglong Yanyue Sword while wearing cotton clothes, without feeling any stagnation at all.
At this time, he actually fell in love with the cotton robe. He moved his hands and feet from time to time, and his face became more rosy under the warmth.
"General Guan is brave and brave. This green robe can perfectly complement the general's bear and tiger body!"
"The general's clothes are really like those of a green giant. If I, Zhou Cang, can wear this clothes one day, my ancestors, who knew me well, will laugh out loud!"
The second brother is a natural clothes hanger, and he wears clothes so well that he immediately attracts a lot of admiration.
Zhou Cang respected his second brother the most. When he saw the clouds moving like green mountains, his face was filled with envy and his eyes were so wide that they were almost rounder than Zhang Fei.
After hearing Zhou Cang's words, Guan Yu's heart moved and he glanced at Liu Bei and Zhang Fei.
These two people also put on the war robes sent by Cao Cao, but compared with the cool green cotton clothes, Liu Bei's white brocade robe, and Zhang Fei's black leather clothes, they looked much inferior.
Fortunately for Liu Bei, the material of the brocade robe is made of fine silk.
Zhang Yide had always been displeased by Cao Cao. The big man Sikong sent him a fur coat that looked like a wolf's skin. The wolf hair had not been removed from the surface of the fur, so it looked very perfunctory.
Zhang Fei is inherently vicious, but when he wears these clothes, he looks like a werewolf in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, very nondescript.
Guan Yu glanced over and saw the loneliness in his eldest brother's heart and the embarrassment in his third brother's face. He moved in his heart and shook Zhou Cang slightly with one hand, which immediately made the fat man in front of him stop his unscrupulous flattery.
"Even if a cotton-padded coat can keep you warm, it is nothing compared to my eldest brother and third brother. They have great righteousness and bring sunshine!"
"Wearing these clothes outside only shows that Yu respects Duke Cao. What else does it matter if it was made by Fang Guang?"
"The clothes given by big brother should be worn close to the body!"
Mr. Guan, who has always been cold and arrogant, rarely shows his true feelings.
Liu Bei looked at his second brother, taking off his green cotton-padded clothes, putting on the old clothes he had given him, and then putting on the cotton-padded clothes again. He couldn't help but be moved to tears.
"Second brother!"
"Brother!"
"Second brother!"
"Third brother!"
Following several shouts, the big hands of the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang were clasped together again in the mountains of northern Xuzhou.
Zhou Cang, who had developed tear glands since he followed Guan Yu, saw this scene, and two lines of thick tears flowed down his face.
Sun Qian and Mi Zhu looked at each other and could see the respect in each other's eyes.
The most horrifying thing is to show off the captain's carriage.
Lao Che has no backing in Xuchang. Yang Feng and Han Xian, whom he used to seek refuge with, are now dead and in decline.
Che Zhou was a marginal high-ranking civil servant who met Cao Cao once a month and it was very difficult for him.
Seeing Guan Yu being so favored by Cao Cao today, Che Zhou's heart was filled with horror, admiration, and even jealousy, which instantly filled the north of Xuzhou.
Lao Che suddenly felt that if he followed Da Er and Guan Yu, he would definitely have a bright future.
"General Guan is righteous. I must report back to my lord. By the way, my lord also sent a message to General Zuo. I hope Duke Xuande can quickly relieve General Cao Ren's siege!"
"Everyone, please take care of yourself. I have to go back and answer my orders first!"
The principal gave a final salute and without any delay, mounted his horse and galloped westward.
The men in white brocade robes, green cotton robes, and black leather jackets were left behind to watch the riders disappear into the mountains.
Liu Bei glanced at Che Zhou. He was Lao Jianghu. He had already seen that Che Xiaowei was impressed by the three brothers with all his heart.
From now on, this army can be regarded as the main force. There should be no obstacles to the military strategy.
"Second brother, third brother, Che Xiaowei, it seems that General Cao Ren is stationed at the pass, and he should be not far north from here!"
"I have an immature idea. General Zixiao is good at guarding. I know that the troops and horses of Bingzhou here are commanded by Zhang Liao and Gao Shun! |
"These two men are the most brave among Lu Bu's troops. We may not be able to win if we fight rashly. It is better to wait until General Cao Zixiao and Bingzhou's troops and horses are exhausted before our troops attack. Only in this way can we have the final say!"
