Chapter 1805: Saving Him Trouble

Cao Shuo walked around the barracks, and he found that many soldiers had not slept.

When he left the barracks, Han Meng, who was in charge of the night, accompanied him.

"General Han will check again later, and if anyone hasn't slept, urge them." Cao Shuo said: "There will be an expedition tomorrow, and the soldiers are not in good spirits, which will affect the march. ”

"I made a note of it." Han Meng replied: "Childe actually doesn't need to remember them, the rough skin and thick flesh of a soldier are used to being a soldier, and it is nothing to fall and beat." ”

"You can't have that in mind." Cao Shuo smiled and said to Han Meng: "We lead troops to fight, and we must treat every soldier as our own relatives." On the battlefield, we can only rely on each other in the face of enemy forces. We couldn't do anything without them. ”

"I wrote down Childe's words." Han Meng responded.

Sending Cao Shuo to the gate of the barracks, Han Meng said: "It's getting late, do you want to send a team of soldiers to escort Gongzi back?" ”

Glancing at Deng Zhan, Zhu Ao and the others behind him, Cao Shuo said: "Accompanied by General Deng and General Zhu, isn't General Han still at ease?" This is Shouchun, not anywhere else. I don't close my doors and roads all over the place, will there be thieves who will harm me? ”

"Of course, there is no need to worry about being accompanied by two generals." Han Meng grinned and replied, "I just feel that it's really late......"

Gently patting his arm, Cao Shuo said: "General Han, don't worry, you have to go to bed early after going back to check the night, and you have to get up early tomorrow." ”

"Childe go slowly, I won't send it far." Han bowed sharply.

Cao Shuo waved his hand: "Go back." ”

Han Meng did not go back, but watched Cao Shuo go away before returning to the barracks.

On the way home, Cao Shuo would look to the left and right from time to time.

There are indeed a few shops along the road with open doors, and there is not even a gatekeeper.

"These shops are really bold." Following behind Cao Shuo, Deng Zhan said: "I don't even close the door in the middle of the night. ”

As he spoke, he was confronted by a group of patrolling soldiers.

When he came to the front, he saw that it was Cao Shuo, and the patrol soldiers hurriedly withdrew to the side of the road to salute.

Walking past them, Cao Shuo said, "You must know that under my rule, stealing is a serious crime. There are patrolmen on the streets in the middle of the night, and if they are caught, they will only lose face the first time, and lose their lives the second time. ”

Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao both glanced back at the patrol team that was still standing on the side of the road.

The soldiers were drawn from the military households.

They will not be stationed in the city for many days, and there will be a redeployment every half a month.

Cao Shuo went out on the expedition, and if it was not necessary, he would not easily draw troops and horses from military households.

Back home, Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao sent Cao Shuo to the entrance of the backyard.

"You two go back and rest." Cao Shuo said: "There must be a lot of things to say to my family tonight, and don't keep delaying with me." ”

Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao responded, but they didn't leave immediately.

Cao Shuo was about to walk into the backyard when several female guards greeted him from inside.

"We've been waiting for Childe for a long time." The female guard who led the team said, "The eldest lady has instructed that if the prince returns, please go to her." ”

"The eldest lady didn't say what to do with me?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Nope." The female guard replied, "But Madame Ma has been with the eldest lady today. ”

From the words of the female guard, Cao Shuo heard that Yuan Fang invited him to go, mostly for Ma Yunlu.

Although the female guard didn't know what Yuan Fang asked him to do, Cao Shuo still guessed eight or nine.

"Go to the Grand Lady." Cao Shuo commanded.

The female guard stepped aside.

Seeing the female guards escort Cao Shuo to the backyard, Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao turned to leave.

Walking out of the door, Deng Zhan said to Zhu Ao: "General Zhu, this time the son goes on an expedition, do you think we can ask for a chance to lead the troops?" ”

"I'll do whatever Childe wants me to do." Zhu Ao said: "I think there is no shortage of people around Childe, we will go to lead the troops, if Childe has something to assign, who can go?" ”

"That's right." Deng Zhan said: "I was still thinking about Xiliang just now asking Gongzi for a chance to go into battle. ”

"General Deng can understand everything, but he can't understand this matter." Zhu Ao said: "Which is more important, killing the enemy or protecting the child?" ”

Looking at Zhu Ao, Deng Zhan replied: "Of course, it is more important to protect the son. ”

"That's not it." Zhu Ao said: "Gongzi left us by his side, if we quarrel to lead troops into battle, what will he think?" ”

Deng Zhan was silent.

He really wanted to ask Cao Shuo for a chance to lead the troops.

The last time I led the troops, I was in Liaodong last time.

But the Gongsun family in Liaodong is too weak, and every battle is like a small fight.

finally came to a battle that might be very decent, and he was about to ask Cao Shuo for battle, but he was watered by a small flame of hope burning in his heart by a basin of cold water from Zhu Aotou.

The two of them walked along the street for a while, and saw that they were almost at Zhu Ao's house.

Zhu Ao arched his hand to Deng Zhan and said, "General Deng, I'm here, I'll leave first." ”

"Farewell." Deng Zhan returned the salute.

After Zhu Ao left, Deng Zhan continued to walk along the street.

His residence was actually not very far from Zhu Ao's house, and he could reach it through an alley.

Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao went home separately, and Cao Shuo, accompanied by the female guard, came to Yuan Fang's residence.

The maid saw him from afar, and hurriedly ran in to report to Yuan Fang.

It was not only Yuan Fang who went out to greet him, but also Ma Yunlu.

Cao Shuo arrived, the two ladies stepped forward to salute, and Yuan Fang asked, "My husband is going to go on the expedition early tomorrow morning, why is he coming back so late tonight?" ”

"Took a trip to the barracks." Entering the courtyard, Cao Shuo said: "Seeing that we are about to go on an expedition, we have to see what the mood of the soldiers is." ”

"Madame Ma has been waiting here for a long time." Yuan Fang said: "I can't see my husband come back, I have no choice, I can only let the guards wait for my husband at the door of the back house." ”

"Something must be going to happen when I've waited so long." Cao Shuo asked Ma Yunlu, "Is it for General Ma?" ”

"I have a little thought, and my husband can see through it at a glance." Ma Yunlu said: "It is my father who waits for my husband. ”

"Don't worry, General Ma and I will go to Xiliang together, and it will definitely be fine." Cao Shuo said: "I can't allow him to have anything. ”

"With a husband here, I will definitely rest assured." Ma Yunlu said: "It's just that my father is old, and Han Sui has an enmity with our Ma family. ”

"Are you worried that Han Sui will be unfavorable to General Ma?" Cao Shuo smiled slightly.

"Exactly." Ma Yunlu said: "As long as he harms his father, the eldest brother will no longer have any scruples, and the husband will save his father, which actually saves a lot of trouble." ”

"Let's talk about it when we come inside." Cao Shuo did not agree immediately, but beckoned the two ladies into the house.
