Chapter Seventy-Eight: Lu Bu's Strangeness (Part II)
When he was at the gate of the city that day, after listening to Qin Xu's deeds, although he was also very pleased with Qin Xu's arrival like the generals, he was very surprised by Sima Mao's statement of the battle, not that he doubted whether Sima Mao's words were exaggerated, but as a general, it was really difficult to accept such a fact.
It was not a rabble, but the Cao Cao family that made the whole army of Lu Bu's army jealous, a whole army of 40,000, and half a day's effort, almost all the whole army was wiped out by Qin Xu, the doll master. How could Lu Bu, who believed in force and was extremely proud of the strong army under his command, accept? What's more, Lu Bu was originally a person with extremely fluctuating emotions, and after learning that there were still some artifacts that could make his courage useless, Lu Bu, who was in a hurry to verify them, had that attitude in front of the generals and Linzi officials at the city gate.
"The power of this thing, I believe the lord has also tried it, let alone killing, it is difficult to even leave some injuries on people. This time it was purely a fluke, if it weren't for Cao Cao's madness, he even sent the horse army as a vanguard in the mountains, and was startled by the fire and loud noise and killed each other. If not, it is unknown whether I will be able to see my lord again. As for this thing, it's okay to hear the excitement during the New Year's holiday, and as for equipping the whole army, it remains to be studied! "Qin Xu is telling the truth, originally, although gunpowder is easy to make, but the danger is also extremely high, Qin Xu did not study chemical engineering in his previous life, if it wasn't for the extreme crisis at that time, Qin Xu would not have thought of such a trick, as for gunpowder appeared in the late Han Dynasty hundreds of years in advance, what kind of development it will become, and what kind of impact it will have on future history, it is not something Qin Xu can consider.
"Hmm! In that case, let's talk about it later! Lu Bu finally showed a long-lost smile, patted Qin Xu's shoulder, and said with a smile: "What you kid did this time is estimated to shock the world." Maybe it won't be long before even my name will be suppressed by you. Now there are already rumors in the barracks that you are not human. Ha ha. ”
"Don't be so swearing! How come I'm not human anymore? Qin Xu said with a bitter face.
"But there is another question, which gives me a headache, how should I reward you for making such a great contribution? If only you were older. Lu Bu's smile was very sincere, which made Qin Xu's eyes a little sour. In my heart, I was glad, fortunately, the lord was Lu Bu, if he changed any of the heroes in the late Han Dynasty, such as Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, and the prestige of his subordinates exceeded that of the lord, then the first thought would be how to kill himself.
"Didn't the lord already give the reward in advance?" Qin Xu showed a narrow smile and said, "What the lord gave is a priceless treasure, and he won't exchange anything for it!" ”
"Ahem! You kid! Lu Bu suddenly understood the meaning of Qin Xu's words, coughed slightly, and said with some embarrassment: "This hasn't hurt enough, and in a blink of an eye, you kid has been deceived." However, you and Ling'er are still young, and we'll talk about this in two years. ”
"My lord! Father-in-law! Don't bring such! Qin Xu saw that Lu Bu had finally returned to his former self, and the corner of his eyes also aimed at a red corner outside the window, his heart moved, and he exclaimed funny: "You have no jokes!" This sent out baby, how can there be a reason to go back! ”
"Humph! Don't you still have your sister Yan, Akihime! Lu Bu feigned anger.
"Sister Yan, let's go, they're all badasses!"
"Haha!" Looking at the two people outside the window who were dragged by Lu Lingqi and staggered away, Lu Bu and Qin Xu looked at each other, and burst into laughter at the same time.
In the end, under Lu Bu's strong request, it was agreed that Qin Xu and Lu Lingqi would be married after the New Year, but the official marriage depends on Qin Xu's performance, as for Cai Yan, Lu Bu passed it all over, did not agree or object, and said with a serious face that as long as Cai Yong agreed, he had no opinion, but Qin Xu looked at Lu Bu as if he was waiting to see a good show.
This is a big problem for Qin Xu, although Lu Bu is famous and known to the world, but after getting along for a long time, after understanding Lu Bu's personality and temperament, this evil god who makes people all over the world famous and discolored is actually just a temperament with a more irritable personality, impulsive behavior, and at most a higher force, which does not make Qin Xu afraid.
But Cai Yong's stubborn old man is different. Although he is known as a famous man in the world and a great Confucian in the world, from Cai Yan's hidden dark attributes, coupled with the secrets that Cai Yan told Qin Xu before, it is not as simple as it seems that this old man can make friends with the old fox Jia Xu and get along happily.
What's more, this old Cai Tou is extremely inauthentic, when he was in Chang'an, Qin Xu was a person who fought hard to save this righteous person who made Qin Xu in his previous life sigh, but what did he get? Qin Xu's immunity to the poor scolding words of the late Han Dynasty benefited from this world-famous Cai Zhonglang. Even if he took someone's daughter's hand, his attitude was a little more intimate, and his words were a little presumptuous, but it was definitely out of affection and politeness. This also made the old man scold for more than half a year from the beginning of Chang'an.
Fate! Retribution! For Cai Yong, Qin Xu can't hide on weekdays, but now he has to rush to find a scolding, no, propose! It's no wonder that Qin Xu's face can get better.
"Okay, I'll give you another three days, after you take care of your own affairs, hurry up and get back to help, this official in Linzi City has a lot of faces, and they are all very hypocritical, which is not much better than those courtiers in Chang'an. If it weren't for Zang Hong supporting him in front, I would have killed them all! Hurry up and get it right, there are six counties and three places in Qingzhou, except for Linzi, there are a few counties that are not very obedient, and this thing you made is flashy, and I have to knock and knock! Hurry up! Lu Bu looked at Qin Xu's bitter gourd face, said a few more words, and left satisfied.
Is it true that buddies are omnipotent? Qin Xu saw that Lu Bu had a headache in Linzi government affairs, and he didn't go to the training ground for a few days, it was estimated that this flying general, who was born for the battlefield, was a little depressed, and he actually entrusted such a big thing to himself at such a young age, and he left it alone, this trust moved Qin Xu and couldn't help but muttered secretly.
Lu Bu passed this pass, but Cai Yong here really made Qin Xu scratch his head, and after thinking about it, he had to discuss a way with Jia Xu, a private think tank, and I didn't know if this famous poisoner in the late Han Dynasty had any experience in this kind of calculating old man's affairs.
Jia Xu didn't seem to be worried about his titular lord Qin Xu Qin at all, after Qin Xu arrived in Linzi, he seemed to be fine, let alone visiting Qin Xu, even when Cai Yong went to the city gate, he didn't go, just drank tea and read books all day long, and played chess with Cai Yong when he had nothing to do, and lived a comfortable and tight life.
"Mr. Wenhe, don't you really have a good plan to teach me?" Qin Xu looked at Jia Xu with a suspicious look on his face, he really didn't know if this top strategist who was known for his self-preservation in the late Han Dynasty wanted to see his own jokes.
"Master Qin, you and I made an appointment to gamble on three things that day, and you just completed the first one, and I also informed you of the important news in my hand as soon as possible, isn't the preliminary cooperation between you and me very pleasant? As for the matter you just said, it is not within the agreement between you and me, please forgive Jia for not having this obligation to plan for you, of course, there is nothing you can do! No matter how low Qin Xu's posture was, Jia Xu still looked smiling, but the words he said made Qin Xu want to roll his eyes.
"Mr. Wenhe, even if this is the case, but from Hanoi to Chenliu, and then to the current Linzi, even if the lord has not succeeded in occupying the land of a state, but he still has the name of Qingzhou Mu, you just look at our friendship for so long......" Qin Xu still did not give up, in order to successfully convince Cai Yong, a stubborn old man, Qin Xu had to resist the urge to hammer people, and once again tried to persuade this poisonous man who played chess with Cai Yong all day long.
"Stop!" Jia Xu pursed his lips, his smiling face seemed to remain unchanged for a long time, stopped Qin Xu's downward words, and said: "First, Master Qin himself knows that General Lu is only the nominal Qingzhou Mu, and the six counties and three places of Qingzhou only own one land in Linzi, Zichuan State; Second, there is only a cooperative relationship between you and me, I will help you make suggestions, and you will ensure that I will be rich and prosperous for a lifetime, and that's it; Third, even if there is a friendship between you and me, then the friendship between me and Uncle Ji is much deeper than that of you with Master Qin, don't help Uncle Ji get in the way, in fact, Master Qin should really thank me. ”
Qin Xu: "......"
In the end, Qin Xu fled from Jia Xu's residence and left. The unreliable strategist Jia Xu is like this, and Qin Xu is not in a rut. After coming and going, Qin Xu also gave birth to a bit of evil fire.
Poor Qin Xu, because Lu Bu forcibly postponed his previous promise under the pretext that Lu Lingqi was still young, only Cai Yan could make Qin Xu get rid of the hat of a department-level cadre who had not been able to take off in two lifetimes, but he met such an unreliable old man.
It seems that what a certain Dana said is really good, people, only on their own. Relying on some unreliable people is not very reliable after all. Isn't he just a stubborn old man, no matter how famous he was in the world before, in this one-acre and three-point land in Linzi, Qin Xu still didn't believe that he could make any waves with a stubborn old man. It's a big deal to call Sima Mao and others, and stage a late Han Dynasty version of Wang Laohu robbing relatives, I don't believe that raw rice is cooked into cooked rice, and I hold a doll called my grandfather and go to Cai Yong, what else can this stubborn old man say.
In the Linzi City Exercise Ground, Lu Bu took Zhang Liao Gaoshun to lead the Xiao Cavalry Battalion and the Guard Battalion out of the city to inspect, only the Shengong Battalion fell into the camp and Cheng Lian had some Taishan thieves to join, and the soldiers of the newly formed Flying Cavalry Battalion were in routine drills. Qin Xu's arrival made the entire camp boil, and Qin Xu's matter had spread throughout the army before, making the eyes of these soldiers looking at Qin Xu full of heat, and the two brothers Cheng Lian and Hou Cheng and Zang Ba did not come to greet Qin Xu because of military discipline. Qin Xu was so worried that he just casually greeted them from a distance, and walked straight towards the camp station.
"Lao Xu! Dead cat! Kong Er was stunned! Qin Xu didn't say much politely, and directly called the name.
"Master Qin! What do you command? "Everyone in the trapped camp has heard what Lu Bu said before the battle, and they also know that the Tiger Fu of the trapped camp has been in Qin Xu's hands before, and Qin Xu's relationship with the trapped camp and Gao Shun is special, so for Qin Xu's arrival, these elite soldiers are more reverent and enthusiastic. As for Lao Xu, Sima Mao and Kong Erzi, the three chiefs, they didn't say anything. Hearing Qin Xu's roll call, he hurriedly went out to answer.
"Call the three of you to do something, and go do something with me!" Qin Xu nodded, with a gloomy face, and commanded.
"No!"
The three of them didn't say a word, they directly took the thirty of their subordinates out of the ranks, stood behind Qin Xu without asking, and walked towards the gate of the camp.
"Where is Master Qin's book going? What do you want my brother to help with? Qin Xu's movements caused Cheng Lian, who was instructed by Lu Bu to stay in the military camp, to hurriedly step forward and ask.
"It's not a big deal, go grab a kiss and come back!" Qin Xu said lightly!
"Huh? ……”
