After dawn, Zu Zhao got up early, and he had already given Zu the drawings of the waterwheel and grinding, and now he was like looking at what kind of development these things had in Xu Wu?

Zu Ju watched Zu Zhao come back, his face was happy, and when he saw Cai Wenji walking very strangely, he held his beard and laughed.

"Grandpa, I came back this time to see how the crops are growing, but I didn't expect that we were still selling water wheels?"

Zu Zhao pointed to the big landlords and tyrant families who rushed to Zu's house to buy water trucks.

Zu Ju's face was smiling like a chrysanthemum, and a mouthful of white teeth were exposed, and now it is said that his ancestral family is the ancestral tomb has green smoke, and there are people like Zu Zhao who came out, and I heard that they were all accepted as disciples by the immortal master.

Cai Yong looked at Zu Zhao and Cai Wenji from a distance, and had a complicated mood thinking of Zu Zhao yesterday, and he had already decided that Zu Zhao was a talented young man, so he simply didn't pay attention to it, in fact, he wanted to pay attention to Zu Zhao, and Zu Zhao didn't bother to pay attention to him, the so-called leader in the literary world, there is no foothold in this troubled era, and there is a chaotic situation.

Zu Zhao looked at Cai Wenji and asked her to figure out the arithmetic, and in the future, he would calculate the arithmetic on her head, after all, it was so hard to follow herself, and she might not be a big lady in the future, but only a flat wife. Thinking of the distance, I suddenly felt that I owed her a lot of affection.

Things at home are still the same, Zu Zhao no longer has anything to worry about, the only thing is that there is a little more tenderness in his heart from now on, whether it is wandering the world or fighting on the battlefield, there is always a trace of concern and a trace of concern in his heart.

Riding a horse and whipping a whip, he rushed to Jizhou.

Along the way, I finally returned to Jizhou City in one day and one night.

This guy Wan Side was already looking outside the city, and when he saw Zu Zhao coming back, he was overjoyed and told him that the hotel had been arranged, and now it was a little unclear that the brewing technique and the sales link were still there.

"Brother Xian, I went back yesterday and thought about it all night, and I felt that something was wrong, the store we opened was not open to the public, but closed the door, giving people a very quiet environment? And what else do you have a name? Fighting? What does "club" mean? ”

He probably didn't figure it out after thinking about it all night, but he came up to respect Zu Zhao's opinion, and Zu Zhao was not wrong, which meant that he was wrong.

Zu Zhao patted his head and said casually: "It's not called a club, it's called Xiaochunyuan!" What's in it is what should be there and what must be there, you run it yourself"

He said with a smile.

The name is Xiaochun Garden, which is the same as the Qinglou, and it is also a place where Zu Zhao used to collect intelligence in the future, and it is the most profitable place to run a Qinglou, which can be said to be a gold cave in this era.

In addition, how is it possible to build a huge empire without strong military financial resources?

Although the green building is black, it is the only magic weapon to attract money.

Now Wan Side's soldiers and horses have been under his command, and now there are 2,000 soldiers and horses that can be used in his hands, which are 2,000 cavalry, and he has fought with Wen Chou in terms of troops, although his official rank is still the right Beiping County Governor.

But compared to Uncle Liu Huang, who is still in a state of wandering, he can occupy a tie with Cao Cao in terms of military strength, and Sun Jian in Jiangnan is still a hot-blooded boy under his brother.

The days of military hegemony are approaching more and more.

Xu Wuxian has a bumper grain harvest, and he will have a huge granary in the future, if he has abundant financial support, it will be very difficult not to compete for hegemony.

In the barracks, there was an excitement, the eight hundred phantom cavalry had been dispersed, the five commanders had been promoted to ten commanders, and the small soldiers had become the five commanders.

When Zu Zhao returned to Jizhou City, he heard bad news: "Huangpu Song attacked rashly and was trapped in Huangyuan County!" ”

Entering the big tent, Lu Zhi was groaning, Cao Cao was also meditating on the sand table in front of him, and the two were looking at Huangyuan County in the distance and thinking.

Huangyuan County, not far from Jizhou, but there is the nest of the Yellow Turban thief, a lot of grain and grass are stored there, and the guards are very heavy, whether it is the local soldiers in Jizhou or the foreign soldiers, they are extremely short of food, that is, Lu Zhi and Huangpu Song These people have also drunk mushy rice along the way, this is such a meal, and now it is about to stop.

Solving the grain and grass has become the top priority, which is also the reason why Huangpu Song led a pair of strong soldiers and directly entered Huangyuan County.

As a result, Huangpu Song successfully entered Huangyuan County, but was surrounded by the Yellow Turban thieves who rushed to the news, and the grain and grass that Huangpu Song wanted was also needed by the Yellow Turban Thieves, which was a matter of life and death, so almost everyone in the Yellow Turban Thieves was red-eyed, and Huangpu Song's several charges did not work, but they lost their troops, and the news came out worse than one time.

Zu Zhao looked at Huangyuan County, which is two hundred miles away from Jizhou, and there is a quicksand river around Huangyuan County in Huangyuan County, which makes Huangyuan County form an environment surrounded by water on three sides and a way out.

"General Huangpu Song, we must rescue him! Do whatever it takes! Lu Zhi patted the table and looked at the general in the big tent, this has risen to the political level, Huangpu Song is the middle general of the imperial court, once there is a mistake, it is Lu Zhi who is really responsible, and it is a big blow to the prestige of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

That situation is unimaginable.

The generals were silent, at this time there were 100,000 Yellow Turban thieves in Huangyuan County, and there were only a lot of them, not counting the families of the Yellow Turban Thieves, and Huangpu Song ventured into Huangyuan County this time, it must be a bloody slaughter of the entire Huangyuan County, which is also the above style of General Huangpu Song, who hated the Yellow Turban Thieves to the core.

Zu Zhao looked at these generals and couldn't help sneering, there are not many soldiers and horses in the entire Jizhou City, only about 30,000, but the factions are complicated, and each general takes his soldiers and horses very seriously, and deeply understands that in this troubled world, preserving strength is the best policy, and there are soldiers in his hands wherever he has confidence, otherwise it is the share of being stepped on. This is the so-called self-respect of the army, and it is also a big crisis in the final collapse of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

"Save General Huangpu Song, let's let the standard go down! Three days later, General Whampoa Song will be rescued! ”

Zu Zhao stood up, there was a drenched murderous aura on his body, and there was also a blood-red murderous intent in his eyes, like a killing god descending into the world.

"Good! Dare to make a military order! Lu Zhi slapped the table, his heart was happy, and he made a military order to urge Zu Zhao, but also because Huangpu Song's life was too important, and he could not tolerate a little mistake in the turbulent dynasty of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

"Then make a military order!"

Zu Zhao stood up, wrote dragon-like words on the bamboo slip, and then threw the pen away and handed it to Lu Zhi.

"Good! I hope that in three days, I will be able to see Lord Huangpu Song, and I will give you a great credit when the time comes! Lu Zhi laughed.

Cao Cao stood up in amazement on the side, taking the head of the general in the million army, this is a legend on the battlefield, no fierce general can break through the heavy human wall, kill the opponent's general, and can safely get the head of the general, because manpower is limited after all.

This is also why he did not dare to follow this military order to save Huangpu Song, because he knew that he did not have this ability.

This is not something that a smart person does, Cao Cao thinks he is a smart man.

The so-called smart people, those who know the times are also handsome.

But he never thought that Zu Zhao couldn't do it, because Zu Zhao had already created countless miracles, so he had been waiting for Zu Zhao to come back and let Zu Zhao finish this task.

But he didn't expect Zu Zhao to be so happy, and what surprised him the most was that Zu Zhao didn't let other generals send troops and horses to cooperate?

Do you want to lead him with two thousand ghost cavalry and directly wash Huangyuan County in blood? Defeated 100,000 Yellow Turban thieves with 2,000 phantom horses?

This was the most surprising thing for Cao Cao, and it was also something that surprised the other generals.

Three days later, will Zu Zhao really be able to rescue Huangpu Song?

Everyone was skeptical.

……

Zu Zhao returned to his big tent, and in the big tent there were Hou Yong, Zu Ping, Zu Anu Han Dang, and the four generals, all of whom had already sat down in the big tent.

'You know the military order, right?' Zu Zhao looked at the four generals under his command and smiled slightly, this kind of spirit that he wanted to see the most.

All four generals nodded.

"Very good, in the future, I will cultivate such a fighting momentum, from now on I will call you four words! Use me in the first battle, use me to win! Give me a word out loud! Zu Zhao spoke coldly.

"Use me in the first battle, use me to win!"

"Use me in the first battle, use me to win!"

"In the future, I will promote this sentence to all cavalry, so that my cavalry will have this invincible momentum!" Zu Zhao said coldly.

Zu Ping, Han Dangzu A's daughter Hou Yong, all looked at Zu Zhao with admiration, thinking of this battle with me, with such a bloody slogan as I will win, they were a little excited, if the ghost horse led by himself had such an invincible momentum, how strong would the combat power be?

"Set off late at night, along the way the horses took off the bells, the horses' hooves were wrapped in quilts, the soldiers covered my face with black scarves, no one could leave any traces along the way, rushed to Huangyuan County in one night, rested for a day, acted the next night, and killed a bloody road for me, I want to enter and exit among the 100,000 soldiers and horses, and snatch out the people of Huangpu Song, and also transport those grain and grass!"

Zu Zhao calmly commanded various deployments.

The most important of these was gunpowder, and that night he and Gong Chuan Hong were equipped with a large amount of flames, a large amount of sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal were ground into fine powder, and then made into granules with a sieve, and a large amount of iron birch wood was also transported to make all kinds of melon grenades, so that each of the two thousand riders had a dozen on their waists.

In the face of gunpowder, all the natives of the Three Kingdoms are just live targets.

Once the success is done, Zu Zhao doesn't mind taking 100,000 dry bones as a stepping stone for his military exploits at this moment.

Compared with the grand plan of dominating the Three Kingdoms, 100,000 miscellaneous fish died when they died, and some dry bones were just some dry bones.

Zu Zhao's face was cold, but the look in his eyes became more and more fierce, if he wanted to be the overlord of the Three Kingdoms and a person who dominated all beings, those so-called kindnesses would be abandoned. The road to the throne is nothing more than a path of killing,

When he looked at Gong Yihong's huge ballista, he couldn't help frowning, and he had the urge to kick the first scientist of the Three Kingdoms to death: "Ya, it won't be made into pieces of parts, so it's easy to transport, such a big size, wouldn't it be a waste of more than ten horses?" ”

"Master, you make this thing into parts, make it into an existence that can be freely disassembled and assembled, so that we can carry it freely in the future, otherwise it will greatly affect the mobile combat effectiveness of our cavalry!" Zu Zhao smiled and spoke.

Gong Yihong patted his head, thinking to himself, why is he so stupid? At the moment, people were asked to make parts, which was originally a crossbow, and at this time, after some detailed disassembly, hundreds of strong crossbows were made in just one day, and then the three-meter-long, thick wood as thick as a child's arm was made into arrows.

This time, the strong crossbow was equipped with a number of columns of spirits, gears, and pressing strips, which exerted the torque to the maximum limit, even if Zu Zhao looked at the schematic diagram, he also thought that he had reached the peak of the process.

The other thing Zu Zhao has to do is rockets, this kind of thing is necessary for war, and it is also his confidence in entering and exiting in the 100,000 army, and he must do it.

……

Late at night, Zu Zhao received the general's order and led two thousand horsemen to set off quietly.

Along the way, the starry night galloped, with two thousand cavalry before dawn to the opposite side of the Liu Liusha River in Huangyuan County, on the opposite side of the Liusha River, there are groups of homeless people looking for all kinds of hungry food, most of the homeless people are stationed on the opposite side of the Liusha River, many people are looking for food in the Liusha River, such as small fish or something, no, there is a bonfire rising, relying on the small fish and shrimp caught up or touched by hand to fill the stomach.

What's even more is that after entering the quicksand river, he was directly swept away by the waves and became an underwater ghost.

Zu Zhao sighed, this is the indigenous people of the Three Kingdoms, for their own interests, killing one person is a crime and killing ten thousand people is a hero. If you want to become a hero in troubled times, you must step on the bones of these people and step on the throne.

"Zu Ping, you lead the men and horses to change their clothes, blend in with the homeless people, plant explosives on the way we retreat, and directly detonate the explosives after we retreat, so as to ensure that our retreat is not pursued by these homeless people!"

"Hou Yong, you lead a team of scouts, catch a few tongues, and learn about the situation in Huangyuan County!"

"Zu Anu, you take a team of people and horses to quietly ambush near us and become a secret outpost, once there are people and horses close to us, he will be caught here, whether he is suspicious, whether he is the king of heaven Laozi, he will do it directly for me, if there is no suspicion, keep it and wait for us to win before releasing it, to ensure that the news that we have come to Huangyuan County does not leak!"

"Han Dang, you take a team of soldiers who can swim, lurk from the quicksand river to the opposite side, enter Huangyuan County and tell Lord Huangpu Song that we have come, attack the city at midnight, and tell them to let them take grain and grass and retreat with us at midnight, this matter is very important, and it must be done well!"

Zu Zhao coldly ordered, and the four of them were ordered to go down separately.

Hou Yong's scouts moved extremely quickly, and returned to the camp with two tongues two hours later.

These are two teenagers who are not yet old, but they are looking at Zu Zhao with a fierce face, with a violent temperament, and their eyes are more like hungry wolves showing a vicious light.

This kind of light is only found by those who have lived on the edge of the knife all year round, and at first glance, these two teenagers are the lords who live on the tip of the knife.

"Tell me who you are, don't lie to me, or I'll let you know what life is better than death!" Zu Zhao spoke lightly, for the existence of the little miscellaneous fish in front of him, he didn't mind killing a few more.

"Bah, I want to know information from us, dream of you!" A young man led by him spat out a mouthful of phlegm and flew up Zu Zhao's face.

Zu Zhao flashed, and then said coldly: "Don't kill it all at once, Ling Chi will be executed, cut two hundred and nine knives on him, the kind that will take three days to die, and the meat will not be allowed to die if it is not cut!" ”

"Yes!" Hou Yong sneered, his sword blade was directly slashed, and thirteen strokes were slashed on the young man's body with a swish, and the blood came out like a fountain, and there were a hundred swords in the blink of an eye. The young man who was about to be Ling Chi was in a cold sweat, but he gritted his teeth and didn't speak.

"The bones are quite hard, don't kill them, pull them outside and let the knife and axe hand chop them up and feed them to the dogs!" Zu Zhao waved his hand.

Hou Yong lifted the boy out as if he was carrying a chicken, and the boy's terrible screams came from outside.

Zu Zhao sneered and looked at another teenager, this teenager had already wet his pants, the so-called killing chickens and monkeys is to have this effect, and the young man with very hard bones is just a little bit of value.

"Tell me about the situation inside, I still have captives behind me, if you don't say it, others will say it, if what you say is wrong, I will let you die a miserable death like that young man, and feed you to the dog alive!"

The terrifying tone made the young man regress incessantly, he had probably never seen such a vicious villain, and the little friend who grew up with him had become the food of the vicious dog, because at this moment he had heard the sound of the vicious dog gnawing on human bones, the kind of clattering horror sound, which made him extremely frightened, and even had the urge to kill himself.

"I said, I said, in the city are our Taiping Sect's Sima Gu's people, Sima Gu is the same character as Zhang Jiaotianguan, a character who can communicate with Huang Tian!" The young man's whole guts were frightened, and he trembled, and almost told everything he had heard and known.

Let Zu Zhao generally know that in Huangyuan County is a guy called Sima Ju, this guy is arrogant and abnormal, and belongs to the early predecessors in the Yellow Turban Thieves, even when he saw Zhang Jiao, he was also very arrogant, and he didn't put Zhang Jiao in his eyes, and followed him with 20,000 Buyong, 10,000 cavalry, and belonged to the more prestigious Lord among the Yellow Turban Thieves, his 10,000 cavalry had fought with Cao Cao, rarely lost, and Cao Cao fought evenly several times, and even killed the other Jizhou soldiers. When the Jizhou army heard Sima Ju's name, it was as terrible as hearing a nightmare.

Zu Zhao pursed his lips, this Sima Ju still has some weight, but it is made into a stepping stone, allowing him to step on his bones and go up to a layer of heaven.
