Chapter 20: The Miracle Medicine
When Zhang Guang's Ninth Regiment began to train in an orderly manner, Cao Cao's migraine began again.
At Cao Cao's mansion, all the generals gathered together.
"The remnants of the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou are becoming more and more arrogant, and the surrounding heroes are ready to move, so you can come up with a feasible idea for me." Cao Cao said.
"Lord, I think we should take advantage of the chaos in Qingzhou to take the initiative to exterminate those remaining parties and get Qingzhou into our hands." Xiahou Yuan suggested.
"Big brother, by all means, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army has nearly 500,000 troops, and we only have more than 100,000 troops, and if we want to go to Qingzhou, we have to cross the entire Yanzhou. Cao Ren suggested that he first establish a foothold in Chenliu and Dongjun.
"Lord, you have always made up your mind, we just rushed to kill, how can I wait for an idea today?"
"If my head doesn't hurt, I still need you?"
Cao Cao looked at Cao Ren, Xiahou Yuan, Li Dian and others present, and suddenly his head hurt even more, what kind of way can you come up with with a rough person?
It is estimated that I, Cao Mengde, will only be able to see your good strategy in my next life, alas, that Zhang Guang, didn't you say that Xun Yu would take the initiative to vote for me soon? What about people?
"Liars, they are all liars made by him."
"My lord, there is a person outside the house who calls himself Xun Yu who asks to see him, saying that he is from Jizhou." A soldier entered the palace to report.
"Xun Yu? Are you sure he calls himself Xun Yu? ”
"That's right, it's Xun Yu!"
"Haha, Xun Yu, you're here after all, hurry, go out of the house to greet you, haha, I don't have to have a headache with these stupid big guys every day!"
Cao Cao's head didn't hurt anymore, and he ran all the way out of the house, Cao Ren and others followed behind, and he didn't get angry when he heard Cao Cao say that he was stupid.
"Haha, Wen Ruo, you're finally here, do you know, I've been waiting for you for almost half a year, hurry, my Zhang Liang, follow me into the house."
"Come on, good wine and good food are served!"
"Lord, the remnants of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army are in turmoil, do you have any ideas?" At the banquet, Xun Yu took the initiative to bring up the matter of banditry in Qingzhou.
"Oh, we were still here just now discussing this matter, but I just happened to have a headache and didn't come up with any good ideas, Xun Yu, do you have a good way?"
"Well, a large part of the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou today ran over from Dongjun, and the reason why they ran from Dongjun to Qingzhou is, of course, the credit of the lord, so ......"
"So, what Xun Yu means, I, Cao Mengde, don't need to do anything, just wait here for them to beat me?"
Xun Yu said that Cao Cao, who was already good at attacking, immediately understood, and immediately became happy and drank wildly.
"Lord, now that the remaining party of the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou is powerful, it will definitely develop in the surrounding areas, and because of the Lord's blow to the Yellow Turban Army of Dongjun last year, they will definitely take the Lord as a target."
"And if they want to come to attack the lord, they must first take Yanzhou, Yanzhou assassinate Liu Dai, and they have no military talent, and their subordinates have no generals, so they will definitely not be able to withstand the westward advance of the Yellow Turban Army."
"And Yuan Shao in the north, Yuan Shu in the east, and Gongsun Zan and others are now fighting each other, and no one has time to take care of Qingzhou's affairs."
"The only thing Liu Dai can ask for help is the lord, and at that time, we just need to reap the benefits of the fisherman."
"Hehe, it's a good sentence to reap the benefits of the fisherman, Xun Yu, in the future, you will be my other Sima, come, drink, have a good time today, everyone drink!"
As soon as Xun Yu entered Chen Liucheng, Gan Ning's detective platoon reported the news to Zhang Guang, who came to the noodle restaurant alone and waited quietly for Xiaoman.
Sure enough, in the evening, Xiao Man, who was already a little drunk, came to Zhang Guang's fortune-telling noodle shop with a smell of wine.
"Xiaoman, is Xun Yu coming to Chen Liucheng? Cao Cao gave you a lot of rewards? Drink like this? ”
"Brother Zhang Guang, you are a man of God, that's right, Xun Yu arrived at my lord's mansion today, and the lord specially ordered me to thank Brother Zhang Guang, and the rest of the year's food will be delivered tomorrow."
"I have a heart, my hundreds of small soldiers, if there is no more food and grass, they will have to disperse, after I go back, thank Cao Cao on my behalf."
Zhang Guang knew that if Xun Yu was delayed for a while, Cao Cao might not send food, but a sword-to-sword.
"Brother Zhang Guang, this time, the lord has a headache again, and he specially wrote a word to me, wanting Brother Zhang Guang to calculate it again."
"There is no problem with Cao Cao's word measurement, but this time it is a bit different, first give the bounty, and then test the word."
Cao Cao was suddenly dissatisfied, but there was no way, he was indeed suspicious of Zhang Guang before, and he did not fulfill his promise in time, Zhang Guang had some ideas, and it was understandable.
"Okay, it's still a year's and a half's salary, and it will be delivered together tomorrow, and at that time, I'll come to Brother Zhang Guang again."
"I don't want grain and grass this time, Cao Cao owed me grain and grass before, enough for us for more than a year, if I come for another year and a half of grain and grass, I have no place to pile up, this time, let Cao Cao convert it into gold."
"Cheng, I'll go back and talk to the lord, there should be no problem, the food and salary for a thousand people for a year and a half will be converted into thousands of gold for you, how about it?"
"Yes!"
After talking to Zhang Guang, Cao Cao was about to go home, and Zhang Guang handed Cao Cao two small bottles, a bottle of plaster and a bottle of medicinal powder.
"What is this?" Cao Cao Fu sat down again.
"This, it is handed down by my ancestors, a home remedy for headaches, you take it back and try it, and then give it to Cao Cao, if it can relieve Cao Cao's headache, then you will be a great achievement."
"Brother Zhang Guang, this is a great achievement, if it is effective, the lord will definitely be greatly rewarded, how to use it?"
"When you have a headache, the ointment in this bottle is applied to the temples, and before you get up and go to bed, melt the powder in this bottle in warm water and drink it."
After Cao Cao returned home, he couldn't wait to melt a glass of warm water, and he was about to drink a cup, thinking about it, and let his subordinates mix it in the feed to feed a sheep to eat.
"How, what's wrong?"
"No, after the sheep ate it, it fell asleep quickly, and there was nothing unusual."
"Okay, it's okay, you can go."
Cao Cao made a cup by himself, drank it, that night, he did sleep very steadily, and the next morning, after drinking a cup, he also felt refreshed and very comfortable.
"Wonderful, really wonderful, how can money buy such a miracle medicine?"
"Come on, prepare ten thousand gold quickly, I have an urgent need."
Zhang Guang is grinding medicinal powder in the yard, which is actually common, mint, wild chrysanthemum and other things that concentrate, calm down, and extinguish fire.
The plaster applied to the temples is nothing more than a plaster made of refreshing things such as ginger, shallots, and sake lees.
Whether it can be cured radically, Zhang Guang is not a little sure, but the effect of slowing down must be there, in the Three Kingdoms where there is only one Hua Tuo, these should be regarded as miracle medicines.
