Chapter 43: The First Confrontation Between the Two Women
Three days have passed since the arrival of Ma Chao's support. [Ran^Text^Library] Xu Shu divided the 5,000 cavalry into five teams and sent them all out. The purpose was to take Runan City between Xinye and Xuchang, and ordered Liu Bei, Guan Yu and other five people to capture the city within two days.
Liu Bei was very puzzled, didn't Xu Shu plan to deal with Cao Jun before? Why are you going to attack the city now? Although Runan City is not big, his 5,000 men and horses are enough, but what is the use of capturing Runan City?
Xu Shu didn't speak, but asked Liu Bei and the others to do the same. Liu Bei could only helplessly obey orders, after all, his military advisor would not be untargeted.
After Liu Bei and the others set off, Zhou Yukun secretly found this military advisor. "That, Master Strategist, why did you let Brother Liu Bei and them attack the city? Although I don't know much about the art of war, doing so will only consume the strength of our army in advance! β
Xu Shu smiled shallowly and looked at Zhou Yukun, who was eager to learn: "Zilong, I can't say anything to them, it doesn't matter to you." β
Well, for some reason, hearing this sentence made Zhou Yukun inexplicably a little uncomfortable. However, Xu Shu's next words made him stop thinking about it: "First of all, you must know that our ultimate goal is to delay time and give the people enough time to evacuate. That's why I proposed to deal with Cao's army, but our army was really lacking in strength, and it was really vulnerable in front of Cao Cao's hundreds of thousands of troops. Therefore, I asked the five of them to pretend to capture Runan City, in order to confuse Cao Cao's sight and make them unable to guess our true plan and detailed troops. As for why I didn't tell them the reason, it was because Cao Cao's people were not stupid, and if they wanted to fool them, they had to fool their own people first! β
Zhou Yukun nodded as if he didn't understand, and thought carefully on the side. Suddenly, he remembered a question he had always wanted to ask: "Commander, I have a question, I don't know whether to ask it or not." β
Xu Shu said with some amusement: "Zilong, if you have any questions, just ask." You must know that you are the main force among the rest of us, and if something goes wrong, my life will not be guaranteed. β
"Hehe, military advisor, you're exaggerating. What I've always wanted to ask is, aren't we in a lot like we were in history? I still know about the famous Battle of Nagasakapo, so why do we still have to learn from history and take these people with us, if it were just a few of us, it would have been easy to escape. β
Xu Shu pondered for a long time before he slowly spoke: "This question of yours is really to the point, although I don't know if Liu Bei really crossed the river with the people in history, but our current 'Lord Liu Bei' really has this idea." Maybe you haven't known your lord long enough that you don't know him. But I have been with him for nearly half a year, and I know that he is a really good person, a good person who is unselfish and thinks about others. It is precisely because of his fearless spirit that we really regard him as the backbone, and those people also want to follow him. What you didn't even expect was that many of the people in Xinye City were not locals, and most of them had followed the lord a long time ago. β
Zhou Yukun's face was incredible, it turned out that there was really such a person in the world, he always thought that Liu Bei's benevolent image was exaggerated in the novel, but he didn't expect it to be in reality. "Actually, I don't understand. Since Brother Liu Bei is a good person, why does he still have to fight with other people, wouldn't more people die in this way? β
"Well, I can't answer your question in detail. I can only say that when I came to this world, it was a chaotic scene, full of killing and killing, looting and robbing. The lord can only do his best to achieve a peaceful and stable environment. The most important thing is that the lord has never advocated war, but Cao Cao has never let him go. It seems that they had a deep contradiction a long time ago, so Cao Cao chased after the lord relentlessly. Xu Shu said with some heaviness.
On the way back to the room, Zhou Yukun's words kept echoing in his mind. Yes, since I came to this dream world, all I have seen are miserable and desolate scenes, and even I have killed many people with my own hands, you must know that you didn't even dare to kill a chicken before. Hehe, the environment can really change people a lot!
As he was walking, Zhou Yukun found that not far ahead, Ma Chuling was smashing at the stake in a sullen manner, probably because Ma Chao did not take her away. The poor wooden stake was beaten all over the place, Zhou Yukun could imagine its pain, after all, he had also been beaten a lot by her.
Zhou Yukun wanted to sneak away from the side while she wasn't paying attention. Unexpectedly, Ma Chuling had already discovered him, and instantly turned his head to stare at him, with a strange expression on his face, and was about to rush over.
Unexpectedly, she had just rushed halfway through, when suddenly a soft long silk wrapped around her waist and threw her out of the way. It turned out that Yuan Xinwen, who happened to be passing by, saw this scene and subconsciously pulled Ma Chuling away. "This little sister, it's not good to be rough in a fight, didn't your brother just tell you?"
Ma Chuling angrily ripped away the long silk beside him: "I want you to care, who are you?" Besides, how old are you, you dare to call me little sister, and if you want to call you, you have to call me sister! β
Yuan Xinwen smiled faintly: "Why should I call your sister!" β
Ma Chuling raised his head proudly, and looked invincible: "Just because I'm older than you!" β
Yuan Xinwen looked at her with some surprise, and then, a pair of eyes swept her petite figure from head to toe, and then glanced at her undeveloped chest, shook her head undeniably, and was silent and no longer spoke.
Ma Chuling was furious by her gaze, what does this woman mean, does she look down on me? Yes! I'm! Her face was flushed and she was about to rush over, but with a wave of her hand, Yuan Xinwen wrapped Ma Chuling up again, unable to move.
Zhou Yukun was stunned from the sidelines, except for her brother Ma Chao, there was actually someone who could subdue Ma Chuling. I didn't expect Yuan Xinwen, who usually looks kind, to be so powerful, and she cleaned her up in three or two clicks. Ma Chuling can easily solve herself, and Yuan Xinwen can easily solve Ma Chuling, that is to say, Yuan Xinwen is also very casual to clean herself up, it seems that she is the weakest among everyone, I am really a tragedy.
Yuan Xinwen walked over lightly and said with a gentle smile: "Are you okay?" β
Zhou Yukun nodded a little weirdly: "Uh, it's okay, but I didn't expect you to be so powerful." β
"No, after previous observations, I found that this little sister is better at melee grappling skills, but my ability is just more restrained. By the way, I heard that you have been assigned to defend the city, do you need my help? After all, this is your first time on the battlefield, and I'm afraid you won't fit in. Yuan Xinwen asked with concern.
Zhou Yukun patted his chest and swore and said: "Don't worry, I'm not the rookie who just came, you girls don't need to help, I can solve it." β
Ma Chuling pursed his lips disdainfully on the side, obviously looking down on Zhou Yukun, who deliberately reluctantly succeeded in beauties. "You just pretend, when the real war comes, you will know how naΓ―ve what you are saying now, and you can solve it yourself, I'm really not afraid of flashing your tongue."
Zhou Yukun was furious: "Who do you say is capable? β
"What about you, you stinky and want food, what's wrong?"
"You tigress, you're so hard-mouthed when you're tied!"
"Stinky food, stinky food, stinky food."
"Tigress, tigress, tigress."
β¦β¦
Yuan Xinwen couldn't help but be amused when she watched the two of them arguing like children. But the strange thing is that Yuan Xinwen always has some uncomfortable feelings in her heart, as if Zhou Yukun at this time is no longer the person in her memory, but has become another person who is both strange and familiar.
