Chapter 472: Liu Bei's Four Brothers
The plan of the day lies in the morning, and at the Chu River estuary wharf in the early morning, Zou Tao is leading Chu River County and the South China Sea Fleet to wave goodbye to Cao Xing.
More than 200 sailing ships set sail again, and when they came, the boats towed in the stern were a little less than half, and there were no prisoners to sit in the boats.
The decks of the sailboats were just as crowded.
Cao Xing stood in the flagship command cabin, waved his hand to the figure the size of an ant left, and asked Xu Shu behind him:
"How many RTL prisoners are left?"
Xu Shu has now become his secretary, no way, many big and small masterminds, just don't get seasick, you call the seasick Li Ru and Xun You, the two mature top masterminds, a little embarrassed for them, and you still want them to do clerical and errand jobs?
That is to say, Xu Shu, a ranger who has not yet transformed into a top mastermind, will be the first to take it.
If three years ago, no, Cao Xing a year ago knew what he was thinking now, and he didn't know if he would jump in anger, not to mention the future top mastermind like Xu Shu a year ago, even a quasi-top mastermind couldn't ask for it.
Anyway, Cao Shu is very happy with the current Xu Shu, and Xu Shu is also happy with his current work, in his opinion, Xu Shu, who has been promoted by Cao Xing all the way, replied honestly:
"My lord, I left 3,000 in Chuhe County, and the original 10,000 captives of labor prisoners have all been mentioned in the Eight Banners of the Holy Elephant, and now there are 12,000 prisoners of labor reform, but twenty percent of them are single women under the age of thirty-five, who will become concubines of single soldiers, so that there will be less than 10,000 prisoners of labor reform.
However, there were no old men in Haikou, and many men were killed, and several battles were mainly based on capturing prisoners, so there were more than 4,000 men among them. ”
"Twenty percent of single women, that's more than two thousand, so take out a fraction, and match them with the remaining two thousand on the boat.
The boat has a long way to go, and it is inconvenient to do other things, and it is not convenient to train too much, so it is just time to use this time to breed some good men of the Han nationality! ”
"No!"
"I heard that you don't have a concubine, why don't you pick a few too?"
Cao Xuan looked at Xu Shu with some amusement, Xu Shu committed murder when he was young, and then wandered outside, not to mention concubines, and he didn't have a wife.
"No!"
I thought that Xu Shu would blush, but this product was good and responded directly, which made Cao Xuan have a new view of the current ranger, at least from Xu Shu, the original ranger, to see that he was frank and unpretentious.
Cao Xuan joked with Xu Shu with great interest, and the two talked about the matter of the concubine, chatting and chatting Cao Xuan suddenly remembered a person who had some different lives with Xu Shu.
Cao Xuan stretched out his hand and interrupted Xu Shu, who was talking about whether it was better to have a concubine in Funan or a concubine in possession:
"Let's go, put the boat, let's go to a boat and meet a few people!"
Xu Shu was a little curious, but he quickly restrained his smile and began to get busy.
The clipper on the flagship was put down, and Cao Xing went to inspect other ships, indispensable for the tiger and leopard to take the lead, and then there were Cao Feng Han Zhang San's guards, because the boat was swaying more violently, it was easier to get seasick, but he didn't bring other civil and military forces, but he specially called his brother-in-law Bao Long from Chuhe County.
More than a dozen small boats made their way through the flotilla and slowly came to the edge of the ship, anchored next to a dhow.
The captain who saw the person coming hurriedly stopped the boat and welcomed Cao Xing on board.
Cao Xuan politely asked the captain of the military position, "Liu Bei can be on the boat?" ”
The captain replied repeatedly: "Yes, he and his three brothers are in the cabin, and the four brothers are so seasick that no one can stand up." ”
"Four brothers? Hehe, this Liu Bei will be neat! ”
The dhow couldn't fit so many people, and there were a lot of troops that Liu Bei brought from Youzhou lying on the deck, so Cao Xing only pointed Xu Shu, Bao Long, Cao Feng, Han Meng, and Zhang Nan.
plus himself, none of the six people are poorly skilled, and there are four brothers who are loyal to him, Haishi and Liu Bei, plus the weapons are temporarily safeguarded, but he is not afraid of any moths.
Cao Feng took the lead to find out the situation, Cao Xing followed, the cabin of the dhow was not large, and the light of the deck skylight provided illumination, only to see Liu Guanzhang lying together, facing the skylight, his eyes were a little dull and empty.
The air smelled of stomach acid, and it was obvious that these three fierce generals on land, two 10,000 enemies, were now completely vomiting, and it was estimated that a child could kill three people in a row.
Well, there is also a scribe next to him, it should be four consecutive kills.
"Meet the Lord!"
The sound of the sea division soldiers saluting Cao Xuan continued one after another, and I saw Liu Bei lying in the middle like a centipede that had been stepped on, and began to squirm violently, Cao Xing's six people were startled by his violent reaction, Cao Feng and the four of them all clenched their weapons, and even Xu Shu put his hand on the hilt of the sword.
I only saw Liu Bei, who was squirming, actually stood up in a violent struggle, and then staggered and bent over.
"Smack~"
Liu Bei's forehead had a close contact with the ship's board, if it weren't for the fact that his hands with him were still not separated, and he didn't forget to say when he was lying on the ground: "Meet General Wei, Ge Lao, Shang Shu, and Mr. Huang Long." ”
Well, if it weren't for these behaviors being connected, I really wouldn't have known that he Liu Bei was saluting, but this "kowtow" was really a real visit.
Liu Bei is just a baron, and he has no real position, before that, the highest was only a county lieutenant, such a level, he grabbed a lot of it under his command, and it stands to reason that he doesn't need to support himself, and from the history of his unhesitating pit Gong Sun Zhan, Tao Qian, Cao Cao, Lu Bu, Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, Liu Biao, Sun Quan, Liu Zhang, Ma Chao, all the warlords who have helped him, supported him, and have heads and faces can be seen over and over again.
Such a person has no gratitude at all, just a living white-eyed wolf, just looks like a husky, and is more likely to please people.
Therefore, such a person, a person who only has interests in his eyes and is not familiar with him, there is no need to be polite to him.
Cao Xing did not step forward to help, but pursed his mouth and signaled his fake son Cao Feng to go.
Liu Bei got up under Cao Feng's support, and shouted to him for a thousand thanks, and the little general was long and the little general was short.
It's just that what he doesn't know is that these two are father and son in history, although Cao Feng, who is a stepson in history, was killed by his father surnamed Liu.
Cao Xing, who watched this scene, couldn't help but hold back his laughter, and Cao Xing, who was afraid that he would laugh out loud, simply entered the topic: "Liu Bei! You're about to become king, but I've heard that you two ...... No, the three brothers are still single, so that's not going to work. ”
At this time, Guan Zhang and the scribe had already stood up with each other's support, and were nodding their heads to salute Cao Xing.
