Chapter 97: Abnormal Movement
Zhao Yi also bought the courtyard next door to his house, settled the hundred or so people from the Killing Courtyard Guard, and was busy treating their wounds and dressing them with medicine.
In the end, this group of people was rolling on the tip of the knife all year round, and when Zhao Yi stitched up their wounds and applied medicine, everyone gritted their teeth and said nothing, unlike Ma Liu shouting like killing pigs.
"It's worthy of being a professional, okay, you can stay here for the time being to recuperate, even if the Killing Sect gang is bold, they won't dare to enter Xiangyang City, don't worry."
At this time, an old man from the Killing Courtyard Guardian Sect came out of the crowd and hugged his fist at Zhao Yi and said, "Thank you Zhonglang for taking it in, the little girl Night Crow has received your care." ”
Zhao Yi saw that this was also one of his father-in-law, and hurriedly replied: "The old man doesn't have to be polite, we are all our own people, you rest first, and I will send someone to bring some food over later." ”
"Thank you, Mr. Zhonglang."
After Zhao Yi left, the old man glanced at the night crow and motioned for her to speak further.
The two walked outside the courtyard and lowered their voices in the corner: "Night Crow, this is the man you are willing to sacrifice yourself?" It doesn't look special. ”
"Father, this is the person, it only took a hundred soldiers to capture Jiangling, and then took Xiangyang with a thunderous momentum, you must know that Xiangyang at that time was commanded by Cao Ren, the general of the Cao army, and there were 5,000 elite soldiers in the city, even so he fled in the wilderness, isn't this a skill? His master is Zuo Ci, the famous monk in the Immortal Building, we are only a few people left in the Guardian Sect now, how can we turn the tables if we don't take refuge in him? ”
"Night Crow, I know you are unwilling, but our opponents are too strong, they are not only a group of powerful madmen, but also a century-old family, many of them are the fourth world and the third duke, then Zhao Yi is only a member of Liu Bei's generals, if it is really a head-on confrontation, the chances of winning are very small."
"Father, my daughter's words are unfounded, since we are going to stay in Xiangyang City to recuperate, my father can use his own eyes to judge whether Zhao Yi is in vain, and to see if his daughter's choice is reckless."
The old man knew that they had no choice at all now, and it was already a blessing in misfortune for Zhao Yiken to take them in, so he immediately sighed: "Okay, I hope your choice is right." ”
After the First World War of Chibi, the situation of all parties in the Central Plains was basically finalized.
Cao Cao returned to the north, regrouped, and sent the Xiahou brothers to guard Xinye, Zhang Liao to garrison Hefei, and he led troops to the northwest to destroy Ma Teng and Han Sui to relieve his worries.
On the Jiangdong side, as soon as Zhou Yu died, Lu Su immediately took up the post of governor of the capital, Lu Xun led the deputy governor, and Sun Quan personally led the army north to Hefei, but was beaten by Zhang Liao.
Sun 100,000, who was defeated like a mountain, realized his ability after suffering a loss this time, listened to Lu Su's opinion, and sent veteran generals Cheng Pu, Han Dang and Zhang Liao to confront each other from afar, and he returned to Jianye to redeploy troops and send troops to Jiaozhou, expanding his power to the south.
As for the one who benefited the most from this tripartite joint battle, it had to be Liu Bei.
Before the Battle of Chibi, he not only lost his shelter, but was also chased and killed by Cao Cao for thousands of miles, and was almost wiped out.
But after the Battle of Chibi, Liu Bei not only monopolized most of the land in Jingzhou, but even held the two important military towns of Jiangling and Xiangyang.
After Zhao Yi contributed potatoes and sweet potatoes, Zhuge Liang has been busy with this for a while now.
He reclaimed a lot of wasteland in the four counties of Jingnan, gave it to the people to cultivate for free, and distributed seeds of potatoes and sweet potatoes to them.
As soon as this policy came out, not only did the people of Jingzhou get benefits and were grateful to Dade, but even the people of other states also heard the news and gathered in the four counties of Jingnan, which made the population of Liu Bei's territory surge in a short period of time.
As for Xiangyang, with Zhao Yi's efforts, it has been built into an unprecedented military bridgehead.
In the following period, Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan also sent a small group of harassing troops to investigate, but the result was that Xiangyang City was stronger than ever, and it was impossible to capture it unless ten times the number of troops could not take it.
After receiving such a reward from Tanma, Xiahoudun completely gave up the idea of recapturing Xiangyang, and opened up several defensive fronts around Xinye, just afraid that Zhao Yi would pat his head one day and suddenly give him a night attack.
Sun Shangxiang's belly is swelling day by day, and the baby in her belly is getting closer and closer to the date of birth.
"Baby~ Can you hear me? I'm your father, call me daddy~ Good baby, are you a boy or a girl? ”
Zhao Yi put his ear on Sun Shangxiang's belly and took the trouble to communicate with the fetus.
"Okay~ Husband, let the three girls rest for a while."
Liu Wanyi pulled Zhao Yi away with a smile, and Sun Shangxiang raised her foot and kicked her man, raised her chin and said: "I am now the most precious person in your old Zhao family, if you dare to treat me badly, I will beat your child, go, today I want to eat sweet potatoes." ”
Zhao Yi said with a smile: "Okay~ Grandma, you are the biggest in our family now, right?" Arrangement~! ”
Watching Zhao Yilian run to the back kitchen, the smile on Liu Wanyi's face gradually disappeared, and was replaced by a sad look on her brows.
Sun Shangxiang saw her and walked over and tugged Liu Wanyi's sleeve and said, "Sister, work harder, let that stinky guy sleep in your house for the past few days, and get pregnant with him three or four at a time." ”
Although Sun Shangxiang is older than Liu Wanyi, after all, the other party is a wife, she is a concubine, and her status is still clear.
Liu Wanyi squeezed out a smile, patted Sun Shangxiang's hand and said, "There are some things you don't know, my husband said that I am young and not suitable for giving birth before the age of eighteen, so I ......"
Sun Shangxiang's eyes widened when he heard this, and he said incredulously: "No...... Sister, you have been married for so long, and you are not a husband and wife? This ......"
Liu Wanyi nodded embarrassedly, Sun Shangxiang was surprised on the surface after getting her confirmation, but a wave of joy suddenly surged in her heart.
Although Liu Wanyi married earlier than her, she is not a husband and wife, so in a certain way, she is Zhao Yi's wife.
Liu Wanyi sighed lightly and said, "I am sixteen this year, and I have to wait for another two years, it's really a long time to think about it." ”
said that Zhao Yi was in a good mood, and personally cooked a large table of dishes, and the family of three sat around the dining table, and the eating atmosphere was quite harmonious.
But at this moment, the corners of his eyes moved slightly, and there was another person in the shadow outside the door, it was a night crow dressed in black.
"Wanyi, Xiaoxiang, you eat first, I'll go and see the night crow to find me something."
Zhao Yi got up and walked out of the room, closed the door with his hand, and before he could ask, Night Crow said quickly in a low voice: "My lord, the killing faction is moving again, we just got the news that they sent troops to besiege the Changshan Zhao family, and this is for you." ”
"What? Siege of Changshan Zhao's house? These dogs, there is no bottom line in doing things. ”
Zhao Yi touched his head, because he came through the time, he had no feelings for the Changshan Zhao family at all, but in any case, it was the home of his own body, and it depended on the owner to beat the dog, and this killing faction was really dying.
"Another thing, we have noticed that the families who are funding the Tianxia Association behind the scenes have recently moved, and we can preliminarily determine that their target is Xiangyang City."
