Farmer of Shu Han

Chapter 726 A Small Strike

It was only half a month's turn to rest and take a bath. The sun was too big outside, and people were sweating, and no one wanted to go out if they had nothing to do.

A living canal was brought in from the courtyard, and the small tall waterwheel that Amei had personally improved was turning around creakingly.

The breeze is blowing, bringing over a little moist water vapor.

The big belly woman was emotionally unstable. In order to divert her attention, Feng Junhou called his sister-in-law and his concubine to play mahjong with her.

Unexpectedly, the little concubine's mental arithmetic ability is too strong, and she controls the whole audience with her own strength, eats her own man, feeds her own woman, and kills the woman opposite her.

Guan Ji stretched out her hand with a smile on her face, "Here."

Feng Yong and Zhang Xingyi had no choice but to hand over a coin each.

For a few people with rich net worth, this coin is not even the tip of a hair, but it is a matter of breath.

However, Guan Ji also grabbed a lot of coins from her and put them in Amei's place as a reward.

It was like encouraging Amei to continue cheating in front of the two of them.

"Brother-in-law! Look!"

Zhang Xingyi pointed at Guan Ji and complained to Feng Yong with an aggrieved face.

Feng Yong coughed dryly, pretending he didn't see it.

At the same time, I sighed in my heart, miscalculated, miscalculated wow, I should have known that Amei would sit on top of me.

Seeing Feng Yong dare not speak, Zhang Xingyi gritted his teeth and kicked him under the table.

Feng Yong grinned, lowered his head and pretended to count the coins in the money bag, quietly divided half, and passed it under the table.

Zhang Xingyi narrowed his big eyes after receiving Feng Yong's help.

Guan Ji on the opposite side frowned, reached down and touched her belly: "Ah Lang, the child is moving again."

She looked at Feng Yong with some worry on her face, "What if the children overhear us playing with money like this?"

"What are you afraid of?"

Feng Yong glared at Amei who was sitting next to him, "Ask this girl to recite pinyin and multiplication formulas for you at night, or you can recite the thousand-character text!"

"Okay." Guan Ji nodded happily when she heard Feng Yong's words.

Seeing the big belly woman's smile, Feng Yong was also relieved, forget it, just be happy with her.

The sound of teeth grinding next to him could be heard clearly, Feng Yong didn't look sideways, and didn't dare to look at Zhang Xingyi.

Amei, on the other hand, had a wink, seeing men and women saying that, she knew she was doing the right thing.

After Li Mu left, Amei, who was exhausted, learned that she could relax for a night. After being happy, she gave another double kill...

Feng Tubie was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Fortunately, the servant girl guarding the gate of the courtyard came to rescue him: "My lord, Governor Zhao has arrived in the outer hall."

Feng Yong was startled, "So fast?"

Mr. Zhao went to inspect various passes in Longshan a few months ago, and then Wei Yanbing from Hanzhong left Chencang.

The two generals of the Han Dynasty dispatched one to the south and the other to the north, frightening the Wei army in Guanzhong.

Chang'an, Meicheng, Chencang, and Qianxian were all very nervous, and they didn't know where the big man would send his troops.

Even Xiahouba who was trying to test Xiaoguan was led back to Yueshi City, just in case.

It is estimated that Cao Zhen did not expect that his temptation this time would make the big man have such a big reaction.

Mr. Zhao showed off his power on Longshan for a while, and he was sure that the Wei army in Guanzhong would not dare to go west easily, so he returned to his division from Longshan. Unexpectedly, he suddenly arrived in Pingxiang today.

When Feng Yong heard the news, he was a little surprised at first, and then he was overjoyed: God help me too!

The moment he pushed the cards, "I don't want to play anymore, I have work to do!"

I still have to do official business on the rest day, I am so diligent for the public!

Feng Yong's righteousness is awe-inspiring.

When he was about to get up, taking advantage of Guan Ji's inattention, he secretly handed all the money he had left to Zhang Xingyi.

Although he didn't like this little money, it was of extraordinary significance. Zhang Xingyi's eyes were bent into crescents.

Unexpectedly, Guan Ji glanced at her indifferently, motioned to Amei to put away the mahjong, and said, "Three missing one, there are only three people, it seems that we can't play it."

Then she took out a deck of cards out of nowhere, "Then let's play Dou Cao Thief!"

When Zhang Xingyi saw it, his face turned green: What kind of thief is fighting Cao? It's obviously Dou Siniang!

After Feng Yong escaped from the courtyard, he let out a long sigh of relief. At the same time, he touched his body and made sure that all the coins were stuffed into Siniang.

Only then did he sigh: Si Niang, I can only help you so far.

Thinking like this, he walked back to the front hall.

Mr. Zhao is almost half the master. After all, everyone knows that Feng Junhou and Zhao Jiaerlang are closer than brothers.

Coupled with the fact that the only remaining veteran general, there is no need to notify him when he enters and exits the Huqiang Captain's Mansion.

When Feng Yong stepped into the front hall, the old man was sitting there sipping tea.

There was also a person Feng Yong could not have imagined standing beside him.

This person's eyes are like pools, his face is like a knife, and his figure is tall and straight. He is such a handsome gentleman!

"Bo Yue?" Feng Yong exclaimed in surprise, "Why are you here?"

Jiang Wei bowed to Feng Yong: "I have seen you, Junhou."

"Oh, what a gentleman is not a gentleman, between you and me, there is no need to be so polite."

Feng Yong stepped forward and held his hands, "Sit, sit, sit quickly! Come, serve tea, serve good tea!"

While speaking, she pulled him to sit down.

It's not surprising that the old man came here, after all, Pingxiang and Jicheng are not too far away, just follow the river Tongwei.

But Jiang Wei's coming here was too surprising, Hanzhong is not too close to here.

Although he has cooperated with Feng Yong several times, he is a general after all. In addition to Feng Junhou's reputation and status, Jiang Wei is still a little uncomfortable with Feng Yong's enthusiasm, and he sits at the bottom a little cautiously.

"The old general came here, but what good news did he bring?"

Fortunately, after Feng Yong told him to sit down, he turned his head and asked Zhao Yun.

"What's the rush?" Zhao Yun patted his stomach, "After drinking the wind in Longshan for several months, my stomach feels uncomfortable, let me have some food first."

"Okay, okay, nothing else, there is food."

In front of Mr. Zhao, Feng Yong didn't have the resources to be presumptuous, so he quickly ordered the outside: "Come here, serve some jelly noodles to the old general and General Jiang! Grill another fifty skewers of roast meat and ten roasted kidneys!"

Inspired by Zhang's little sister who mixed Yutou powder into Hu's ration, Feng Yong finally remembered the jelly that he used to eat when he was a child.

The production of jelly is not complicated. The principle is to use starch as the main material. After mixing with water, heating and stirring constantly, the starch gelatinizes and gradually becomes thicker.

Beans, rice, wheat, etc., as long as the food contains a lot of starch, it can be used for cooking.

When I was a child, I often ate jelly made from soybeans by my grandma, and I often helped out.

On the contrary, when I grew up and left home, I never had the chance to try it again.

Just thinking about it makes my nose a little sore.

As a reserve grain, Yutou must be planted every year. Although not many are planted, it cannot support high yields.

So Feng Yong mainly made rice noodles with Yutou as the main ingredient and a certain amount of rice.

Pour in soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil. If there is no chili, use peppercorns instead. Boil the peppercorn oil, mix it a few times, and let it slip into your mouth. It is cool and smooth, slightly numb but not spicy.

It is the most suitable to eat in the hot summer.

"Does the old general want parsley?"

After Feng Yong finished mixing, he asked a question.

Coriander is something that some people love very much, while others just want to vomit after hearing it, so you have to ask first.

Mr. Zhao shook his nose, just the smell of the seasoning made his saliva ooze slightly, "Put it, put it, put it all!"

"Okay!"

Feng Yong picked up the chopped coriander from the side plate and sprinkled it on.

After taking the big bowl from Feng Yong, Zhao Yun picked up a big chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth without hesitation.

Sure enough, the food in Feng Yong's hands did not disappoint him as always.

But for Feng Yong, the barbecue without cumin is half of the soul. He can only marinate it with ginger and wine to remove the fishy smell.

Because the molasses left in the mead gave the roasted meat a special taste.

In addition, even wealthy families these days pay more attention to rituals. In terms of taste, it is really not as delicious as a little cook in Feng Yong's mansion.

After Hu stuffed a few plates of jelly, the grilled lamb kebabs were served.

The mutton sizzled, and the mutton fat dripped onto the tray. The meat smelled like a faint smell of wine, which whetted the appetite.

While licking the skewers, he held a small wine jar to his mouth, and the inside was honey wine, a specialty of Nanzhong.

Not to mention Zhao Yun, even Jiang Wei, who was a little restrained at the beginning, let go and ate.

Feng Yong didn't have such a good appetite, so he ate two skewers of roasted kidneys.

"Getting along with this kid won't let you suffer, so it's in your interest to get closer to him in the future."

Zhao Yun ate and drank more than half of the wind, and after slowing down, he pointed to Jiang Wei: "Don't be like that Wei Wenchang! Hey, let him eat dry food in the barracks."

Jiang Wei's cheeks were bulging, and he had just put in a skewer of barbecued meat, when he heard Zhao Yun's words, he said "huh" twice, and was about to stand up to answer.

"Sit, sit, relax!" Zhao Yunxu pressed, then pointed to Feng Yong, "Look at him, he doesn't even have a sitting position. This is not a military camp, and there are not so many rules."

Looking at Feng Yong who was leaning against the back of the chair, Jiang Wei nodded again and again, murmured a few times, and no one else knew what he was talking about.

Jiang Wei himself was secretly taken aback.

I used to think that I already had a high opinion of Feng Langjun, but I didn't expect him to be able to fight against Old General Wei at his age?

When Feng Yong heard what Zhao Yun said, his eyes widened with a smile, and the annoyance of being crushed by his concubine's IQ just now was swept away.

"Extremely extreme. When I see Bo Yue, it's like seeing a long-time friend. Let's get closer in the future!"

"It's not like that Wei...huh? Didn't the old general just say that old Wei...cough, General Wei is here too?"

Feng Yong suddenly reacted.

Zhao Yun was chewing something, so he didn't have time to answer for a moment.

Jiang Wei quickly swallowed what was in his mouth, "Here we come. Wei came here with General Wei at the order of the prime minister."

"What about others now?"

Feng Yong didn't expect that he was taking pleasure in other people's misfortune, while Old Wei Wei was suffocating under the city of Chen Cang, and the other party had already arrived here, which was really surprising.

"We're in the barracks outside the city with Buqu." Zhao Yun said hesitantly, "If you were him, would you come into the city?"

Feng Yong pouted.

Going home to make fun of yourself?

Skipping the topic of Wei Yan, Feng Yong remembered something again, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Mr. Zhao and Mrs. Wei suddenly arrived in secret, plus Jiang Wei who was ordered by the old monster Zhuge, this is... a big move?

Seeing Feng Yong's appearance, Zhao Yun knew that he couldn't hide it from him, so he took a sip of tea and rinsed his mouth: "The proposal you made earlier, after the prime minister heard about it, felt a little too risky."

"After the beginning of spring, the Cao thieves will test all the gates, which is enough to show that if we attack Liangzhou with all our strength, the tens of thousands of Cao thieves in Guanzhong will definitely make moves."

Zhao Yun explained, "Besides, Liangzhou has a vast land, and there are barbarians making troubles all the year round. It is not easy to calm down, but it is even more difficult to govern. If the big man takes Liangzhou first, it will only give the Cao bandits in Guanzhong an opportunity to take advantage of it."

"That's why the prime minister felt that it would be safer to take Guanzhong first, and then Pingliangzhou."

Zhao Yun burped, and continued, "Besides, the big man only pacified Longyou last year. If we use our swords again this year, the common people may not be able to afford it."

Feng Yong frowned upon hearing this.

Of course he knew the situation that the big man was facing now.

Just like before, when I was fighting the Qianghu Rebellion in Longxi, and Cao Zhen moved to the east of Longshan, Zhao Yun had to give up pressure on Liangzhou and turn to guard against the east.

The reason why Hao Zhao attacked Liangzhou when he died was actually a fluke mentality in his heart.

Wouldn't it be great if the Zhuge old demon could come up with some kind of trick to hide the sky and cross the sea like the legend?

Although I can't figure it out, who knows if Zhuge Old Demon can figure it out?

Even if he couldn't Ping Liangzhou, at least he had to find a way to take advantage and get some cash. This was Feng Yong's true psychology.

Disgusting enemies are just making fun of themselves.

Thinking of this, Feng Yong looked at Mr. Zhao suspiciously.

The old demon Zhuge asked Jiang Wei to come all the way, so it couldn't be just to eat me up, right?

Zhao Yun knocked on the table and emphasized: "So this time, we can only fight small, not big."

"Small fight?" Feng Yong still didn't understand.

"Yuzhong and Jincheng."

Zhao Yun made a reminder.

Feng Yong understood: "Cannibalize?"

Zhao Yun nodded, and looked at Feng Yong with some appreciation: "I asked you to write a letter to Li Yan's son, and you really wrote it right. Now Li Feng has led Jiangzhou soldiers and horses to Hanzhong."

"So now Hanzhong has sufficient troops. It may be insufficient to attack Liangzhou, but it is more than enough to attack Yuzhong and Jincheng."

"When did this happen?"

Feng Yong was really taken aback when he heard this.

"The news just reached Jicheng last month." Zhao Yun's eyes sparkled, "There are 20,000 more troops in Hanzhong, just as Wei Wenchang returned from Chencang."

"That's why the prime minister didn't let him go back to Hanzhong, but directly asked him to secretly lead his army to Longyou, and take advantage of Cao's bandit not reacting, and captured the two cities of Liangzhou Cao bandit on the east side of the river."

Isn't this still cheating?

Of course, Li Feng led the troops here, and it happened to be a good time, otherwise Zhuge Old Demon would probably give up this opportunity.

Feng Yong punched his left palm with his right hand, "Excellent!"

"Yuzhong is the county seat of Jincheng County, and Jincheng is the gateway to Liangzhou. As long as we capture these two cities, we can cross the river and enter Hexi at any time."

Feng Yong said excitedly.

Zhao Yun shook his head, "The Prime Minister means that before the capture of Guanzhong, we should focus on defense against Liangzhou, defending from the west and attacking from the east."

"Of course, if the Liangzhou officials can voluntarily surrender to the Han, that would be the best choice."

Feng Yong nodded silently, knowing that this was the best choice.

To put it bluntly, returning to the old capital is the most urgent political need of the big man.

In the land of Liangzhou, it would be best if he could voluntarily surrender, even if he didn't want to surrender, as long as it didn't affect the Great Han East's acquisition of Guanzhong, that would be fine.

Which relationship is important in Liangzhou?

Therefore, capturing Yuzhong and Jincheng and forcing Liangzhou to enter the defense in an all-round way is the purpose of this time.

"Although only two cities were taken, Jincheng has always been known as solid as gold, so it should not be underestimated." Zhao Yun looked at Feng Yong, "Hao Zhao from Liangzhou is really dead?"

Feng Yong nodded, "It is true that he died of illness."

There are two places with the most wandering knights in the world, one is the land of Yanzhao, and the other is the land of Liangzhou.

Feng Yong has a group of rangers, at least half of them are from Yongliang.

It would be most convenient for them to go home and inquire about some news.

There are also aristocratic families in Longyou, especially the Li family in Longxi, who are inextricably linked with Hexi. Although the two sides are now separated, it is still possible to inform them of news or something.

Zhao Yun nodded: "That's the best. The Prime Minister once said, Hao Zhaoshan is guarding, and you must be careful when you meet this person. If he is in Jincheng, I'm afraid there will be many casualties."

"If you want to attack these two cities this time, if you want to capture them as soon as possible, you will have to rely on the engineering battalion belonging to the Huqiang Captain's Mansion, but I don't know how you are preparing?"

Although the engineering battalion has contributed a lot in Longguan, Shangyu, and Linwei, even for most of the generals in the Han Dynasty, it is still just heard.

They are all people who are on the battlefield of life and death. If they have not seen it with their own eyes, who would easily believe the rumors?

Cao Cao also claimed that he had a million troops stationed in Chibi, and what happened in the end?

Feng Yong smiled slightly, "Don't worry, old general, you'll know after watching the demonstration tomorrow."
