Chapter 049: News
The two of them, who knew a lot about the war, certainly understood the value of the crossbow in Hou Ruifeng's hand. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, the accuracy of the crossbow is simply inhumane, and the distance is not far, it can only kill nearby, and it is completely inferior to the bow and arrow.
Therefore, the people around him were very curious and shocked by the crossbow in Hou Ruifeng's hand, if this kind of crossbow could be used in war, it would not be possible. Even if it's not much, it's enough to fight with a bow and arrow.
The Guan brothers had been eagerly staring at the crossbow, trying to find out what kind of material it was made of, but they didn't know synthetic materials.
But Zhuge Yang was carefully looking at the relationship between Hou Ruifeng and Liu Ding, thinking thoughtfully.
Hou Ruifeng killed a few more animals and threw the crossbow to the Guan brothers, "You guys try it too." ”
"Thank you. ”
The two of them thanked each other for a moment, and then hurriedly observed the weapon in their hands, completely unexpecting that the weight of the crossbow would be so light. It's just that after getting it in my hand, I don't know what kind of material it is made of, I am confused, but I don't dare to ask, so I have to take the animal out of anger.
One afternoon.
Since they were hunting on the periphery, they did not encounter a few large prey, all rabbits, pheasants, and some birds, and two and a half large wild boars were killed by them.
In the evening, they set up camp by a stream in the forest.
Guan Dao and Guan Jian were sitting together and talking about crossbows with great interest, discussing why such a light crossbow was so powerful, and what kind of material it was made of, go back and try it.
And Zhuge Yang sat on the side and listened, he also killed a few prey with a crossbow in the afternoon, and his heart was the same as the Guan brothers' doubts.
Xiao Liang led several eunuchs to peel rabbits and wild boars and prepare for barbecue.
Hou Ruifeng and Liu Ding sat alone by the creek and narrated.
Seeing Hou Ruifeng comfortably put his feet in the crystal clear water, Liu Ding hesitated for a moment and did so. Then he whispered the news that he had just heard.
"Shangxian, Lone's spies have detected that Wu Guo seems to be sending troops. ”
Hou Ruifeng was taken aback: "Who to hit?"
"I don't know, but it should be Wei. Liu Ding guessed, "The crown prince of Wu went to the front line to inspect, and then there were signs of army movement, much like a precursor to war, and the envoy we sent to Wu has not yet arrived." ”
"Rub, I just persuaded Lao Cao not to do it this year, why did he come out again. Hou Ruifeng was a little painful, "Don't interfere, Lao Cao has already agreed not to do it." ”
"Lone has been trying to convince the general recently that there are no plans to start a war for the time being. Liu Ding was very excited when he heard this, as long as Wei didn't do it, he had a great chance of convincing the generals, after all, they were forced to do it under pressure, and they didn't have to be war.
"Old thief Cao...... Will Cao Fu not make a move with our country, or will he have a complete truce? Or will he let people go to Wu State to make peace. Seeing Hou Ruifeng's somewhat depressed look, Liu Dingan couldn't help but be excited and said his plan.
"A complete truce, he won't take the initiative to attack, so will Wu Guoguo listen to you?" Sun Qing didn't know how to do it, and he hadn't seen his mobile phone until now. ”
"Let's give it a try, find someone familiar and go to Wu to see what's going on. It should be possible to dissuade it. Liu Ding said.
Now is not the time for infighting, once Wu Wei starts a war, Shu Han is estimated to be dragged down, and it will not be something he can dissuade at that time. At this time, Shangxian was already very satisfied with him, and he had already occupied a place in Shangxian, and the importance of mobile phones was much worse, after all, it was just a magic weapon for contact.
And now if Sun Qing joins in, it will only make Cao Fu the most uncomfortable, and it will not have much impact on him, so it's time to remind him. However, this person with words must be chosen well, and he can't say it explicitly, and he needs to say what happened to him vaguely.
Hou Ruifeng said: "If it doesn't work, then I can only go over and talk to Sun Qing, you pay more attention to the situation, and tell me if you find something." ”
"Well, Lone understands. ”
And at the same time.
Cao Wei, Eastern Capital.
Cao Fu looked at Wu Cheng in front of him and asked with a smile: "Is it true?"
"It's true!"
Wu Cheng's subordinates just came with the exact news that Sun Qing's idiot regarded the mobile phone as a witchcraft, and was looking for someone to destroy it, but it never succeeded.
This made Cao Fu gloat for a while, and then he instructed Wu Cheng, "Let our people go and give more advice to the two masters, don't let Sun Qing touch that thing, it's better if you can throw it away, but don't bring it back." ”
"No!" Wu Cheng nodded and left in understanding, although he didn't know what that thing was, but this time it would make the emperor happy.
Cao Fu sneered twice, Sun Qing himself is unlucky, don't blame him for falling into the well, since you can't meet the immortals, then it's best not to meet them in the future. And Liu Ding and Shangxian in the south, let's relax happily this time, don't notice the movements of Wu Guo.
That's right, he also got the mobilization information of the Wu army, which is much more detailed than Liu Ding's, knowing that this is for the prince to build momentum, so as to prepare for the future accession to the throne, it seems that Sun Qing knows that his body is not good, and the magic weapon of the immortal scared him enough, and began to protect himself.
And Cao Fu's analysis of the movement of the army is different from Liu Ding, he estimates that the state of Wu will not be able to fight during this time, and the movement of these troops is all Sun Qing's scheming, and he wants to see what the reaction of the country is, so that he can get rid of some people who are unfriendly to the prince.
The two of them in the mountains and forests didn't know the Tao here, and they were still talking about it, but most of it was Liu Ding who was explaining the situation of Wu Guo, so that Hou Ruifeng could understand the basic situation.
"The crown prince who wants to expand southward, will this transfer of troops be southward? Didn't you say that the prince just went to inspect the army?" Hou Ruifeng guessed.
"Impossible!" Liu Ding said categorically, "Even if he has this idea, he doesn't dare to transfer troops to the south, millions of soldiers from our country and Wei are hoarded on the front line, even if he doesn't increase his troops, even if he is bold." ”
"This ...... How did you fight before? Did you join forces with Wu Guo to fight Lao Cao?" Hou Ruifeng asked curiously.
"That's the way it looks for most of the time, but sometimes it's not always the case. Liu Ding said vaguely, "Sometimes we also have disputes. ”
"You're a mess. Hou Ruifeng shook his head, ignoring the matter, and finally said, "If Sun Qing ignores your words, just tell me, and I will set up a line between you and Lao Cao, and speak together to scare Wu Guo." ”
"Okay. Liu Ding reluctantly agreed. If he wants to unite with Wei, he will probably have to have a hard debate at home. But it's still more cost-effective than wooing immortals.
At this time, the aroma of barbecue came.
Xiao Liang was holding the seasoning brought by Hou Ruifeng for the eunuch who was roasting meat.
"It smells so good. ”
Guan Dao twitched his nose and whispered to his brother Guan Jian: "Where did this mysterious immortal come from, have you heard of it? The emperor still trusts him so much? Isn't he a monk? Why is he called an immortal?"
"Don't worry too much, this time to see the emperor or my father gave us the opportunity, if you dare to mess around, I can't go back to you! You are now my subordinate, be careful I let you go to the dung pit." "Guan Jian threatened his younger brother, his younger brother is good at everything, but his heart is a little bit like that, which makes people worry, fortunately, his father transferred Guan Dao to his subordinates, but he was afraid of being pitted.
"Hey, hey. Guan Dao was scared, and there was nothing to dig the dung pit, but it was a loss of face, so he had to turn his head to Zhuge Yang and said, "Hey, have you heard of it?"
"Nope. Zhuge Yang shook his head, "Also, Shangxian is not a monk, he just cut his hair short, like some barbarians." ”
"Then the immortal is a barbarian, no wonder the clothes are so strange. Guan Dao suddenly realized.
"It's not a barbarian, can a barbarian come up with such a powerful crossbow?" Zhuge Yang said disdainfully.
"That's right. The Guan brothers nodded at the same time, agreeing with his words.
Then, Guan Jian said: "Don't inquire about the life history of the immortal later, I see that the immortal is very easy to talk to, if we stay here, maybe we can continue to use the crossbow, we have to take a good look at what kind of material it is made of, and go back to tell my father." ”
Hearing Guan Jian pull out his father's name, Guan Dao said seriously: "Got it." "His father was the only person he was afraid of, and he didn't dare to do bad things.
At this time, Hou Ruifeng and Liu Ding came back from the stream and sat on a blanket, Liu Ding said to the three of them: "Come over and taste the delicious seasoning brought by Shangxian." ”
The rabbit has been roasted and the boar is chopped and the final steps are done.
The Guan brothers were not polite, and after saluting Liu Ding, they ate violently, looking like starving ghosts. Zhuge Yang is a lot slower, but his mouth is not slow, no less than the Guan brothers.
Hou Ruifeng is much slower now, his recent food has increased significantly, and whether it is in the Three Kingdoms or in modern times, he has always been entertained, even if he went to Germany to buy raw materials in the past few days, he did not treat himself badly, so there was no shortage of oil and water in his stomach, and he began to taste the fruit wine brought by Liu Ding.
And Liu Ding saw Hou Ruifeng last time he was very disgusted with the wine here, this time he brought the best wine in the palace and the best wine in the restaurant outside the palace, and then let Hou Ruifeng taste it.
"That's good, what kind of fruit wine is this? This can be done. ”
Hou Ruifeng took a sip of each and found two sweet fruit wines, which were similar to the taste of later generations, and were no longer sour and astringent. It looks a lot better, at least it's clean inside, and there was still pulp in it last time, and I'm not afraid of spoilage.
"This is plum wine, and this should be wild fruit wine. Liu Ding is not very familiar with the latter one, "Wild fruit wine is brought from a restaurant outside, they are all brewed with several kinds of wild fruits, Lone is not clear, if the immortal likes it, Lone asks the guards to buy more." ”
