Chapter Thirty-Eight: Calm Zhang Baiqi
"Zihuan, Ziwen, take these pills and bamboo slips back to the study, I want to study them carefully."
"Yes, Brother Rui!" Cao Pi and Cao Zhang carried the pill and bamboo slips back to Lu Rui's courtyard. Lu Rui locked himself in the courtyard for three days, and conducted ten experiments with different black dogs with Cao Pi and Cao Zhang.
The result was the same as the first time, after the black dog took the pill, it became infinitely powerful and very difficult to deal with, but every black dog who took the pill suffered from physical exhaustion after a day, and several of the black dogs died as a result.
"Brother Rui, it seems that this elixir can indeed enhance the physical strength of animals or people, but it also has great side effects?" Cao Zhang followed Lu Rui for a few days of experiments and came to such a conclusion.
"Well, Ziwen is right, Zihuan, what do you think?" Cao Zhang can only see things on the surface, but Cao Pi is different, Cao Pi looks at the inner things.
"Brother Rui, junior brother thinks that in addition to what Ziwen said, there are a few points that we need to pay attention to." Cao Pi arched his hand and replied to Lu Rui respectfully.
"Zihuan said, is there anything we need to pay attention to?"
"Brother Rui, first of all, after we gave the black dog the pill, the black dog did not behave abnormally or restlessly, and the younger brother thought that the black dog did not lose his mind after taking the pill. This is different from the Five Stone Scatter. ”
"Secondly, after taking the pill, the black dog has amazing performance regardless of his previous physique, which shows that as long as he takes this pill, no matter who he is, he will be able to stimulate his potential."
"Thirdly, not all black dogs who take the pill are dead, the black dogs who usually have a stronger physique just become very weak, which shows that this pill is good for people with better physique. The effect of taking it is weak. ”
"Finally. is also the little brother is most worried. It is the process and time of refining this elixir, can it be equipped with a large number of Yellow Turban Army? "If this elixir is equipped with a large number of Yellow Turban Army, I'm afraid it will be Cao Jun's nightmare.
"Zihuan, don't worry about this matter, if the production of this elixir is extremely easy, when the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zhang Jiao will definitely equip the Yellow Turban Army, so that the world of the Han Dynasty will already fall into Zhang Jiao's hands." Lu Rui traveled around with Cao Cao since he was a child. I have seen a lot of Yellow Turban Army, if everyone had this kind of elixir, the officers and troops of the Han Dynasty would definitely be caught off guard, but most of the Yellow Turban Army was basically ordinary people, and when they encountered the regular army, they were not vulnerable at all.
"What my brother said is reasonable, so according to my brother, what about these pills?"
"The Yellow Turban Lux in Zhang Bai's cavalry army must be equipped with this elixir, but this elixir has great side effects, and I am afraid that it cannot be used often. At the beginning, Zhang Baiqi besieged Zhong's father, and there were only more than 1,000 people. I estimate that among the Xiliang troops we met in Meridian Valley was the Yellow Turban Lux. "It seems that Zhang Baiqi wants to rely on the Yellow Turban Lux to reverse the defeat, but there is a master in Tongguan. I'm afraid Zhang Baiqi will miscalculate.
"It seems that Zhang Baiqi is not dead in his heart for Tongguan, but even if there are Yellow Turban wrestlers and Guo Junshi is there, Pi thinks that Tongguan can be safe." Cao Pi quickly guessed Zhang Baiqi's intentions.
"Zihuan, quickly send this matter to Tongguan and tell Guo Junshi, just in case." Although Guo Jia is there, Lu Rui does not know the true strength of the Yellow Turban Lux, so it is better to be cautious.
"Yes, Brother Rui, the younger brother will immediately repair the book and tell Guo Junshi."
At this time, Chen Cang was too guarded in the mansion, Ma Yunlu fled to Chen Cang with his entourage, and Ma Yunlu cried and told Ma Teng and Ma Chao about the process of Lu Rui's raid on Tianshui.
"Daddy, you must avenge your mother, we have a common enmity with Cao Jun, and my mother must have been killed now." Ma Yunlu threw himself into Ma Teng's arms and cried bitterly.
"Madame!" Ma Teng hugged Ma Yunlu and screamed and fainted.
"Father!" Ma Chao rushed forward with an arrow step and helped Ma Teng up.
The day after Ma Yunlu arrived in Chencang, Ma's spies who stayed in Xiliang also returned to Chencang. Mrs. Ma was killed, and the bad news that the Ma clan was hung on the city wall by Lu Rui also came. After Ma Teng heard the bad news, he couldn't afford to get sick, and Han Sui was also at a loss, worried about Jincheng's safety. Only Ma Chao barely supported it and mastered the whole army.
"My subordinates have seen the lord, please mourn the lord!" Zhang Baiqi spent this time recuperating in his military tent, and now that he knew about Lu Rui's raid on Tianshui, he immediately came to meet Ma Chao.
"White riding?" Ma Chao glanced at Zhang Baiqi and let out a long sigh.
"Bai Qi, my mother died, the clansmen were slaughtered, although the general was sad, but he has not lost his mind, our army and the Cao army are still in confrontation, a little careless, the whole army will be wiped out, Chao still understands this truth, but Tianshui has been lost, our army's baggage support is completely destroyed, Jincheng is far away, it is difficult to supply, our army has been guarding Chencang for a long time, and it will be defeated by Cao's army." Ma Chao glanced at Zhang Baiqi worriedly, this time he really had nothing to do.
"Lord, although our army is at a disadvantage, but our army is not irretrievable, as long as our army succeeds in the raid on Tongguan, it must be Cao Jun who will retreat at that time, Lu Rui only has hundreds of people, without the support of Cao Jun, what will he do?" Zhang Baiqi swiped the feather fan and analyzed it for Ma Chao.
"My lord, the offense and defense are changeable, and our army is at a disadvantage, which may also be an advantage of our army. Cao Jun must also know about Lu Rui's raid on Tianshui now. Cao Jun will definitely think that our army will withdraw from Chencang, and then it will be an opportunity for our army. Bai Qi already has a plan, please rest assured. ”
"White riding?" Ma Chao looked at Zhang Baiqi, and then found that Zhang Baiqi was actually radiant, with a ruddy complexion, and he didn't look like a seriously ill person at all.
"Are you all right on the white horse?" Ma Chao showed a surprised expression, if Zhang Baiqi's serious illness was cured, then it would definitely be great news.
"The lord is wrong, Bai Qi is just returning to the light, Bai Qi's time is running out, I am afraid that this is the time to plan for the lord." Zhang Baiqi smiled bitterly, he used the pill to temporarily suppress his evil disease, and the next time he got sick, I am afraid it will be when he dies.
"White Rider, you?" Ma Chao was stunned, he didn't expect Zhang Baiqi to face life and death so indifferently, knowing that his death date could be so calm, Ma Chao was really ashamed of himself.
"Lord, please continue to guard Chencang, Bai Cai led his entourage to Tongguan, and cooperated with General Ma Dai's actions, if it succeeds, within half a month, Tongguan will fall into the hands of our army, and then how the lord defeats Cao Cao will not have to be Bai Cai to strategize." Zhang Baiqi clenched his fists and knelt down.
"Please take care, my lord, I'm riding away!"
"White Ride!" Ma Chao grabbed Zhang Baiqi's hands and helped Zhang Baiqi up. The two looked at each other and laughed. (To be continued......)
