"Mr. Liu knows that Mr. Mi will intercede for you. Mr. Mi's face Liu must be given to you. You may not be punished this time, but the lesson must be kept in your heart." Liu Xin looked around and paused. Dun said, "Gao Shun was wrong for his personal bravery. He used his sharp bow and crossbow and rushed to single out with Guan Yu. Zhang Liao should not disperse his forces, let alone fight with the Xuzhou infantry."
Liu Xin's remarks were not just for Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, but to remind all the generals. Seeing the generals nodded frequently, he continued: "The battlefield is cruel. Either you die or I die. You should do everything possible to protect yourself and kill the enemy. In order to achieve your goal, even if you are treacherous, Guan Yu's martial arts are strong, but can he avoid a secret spear and a cold arrow? Can he prevent stumbling and trapping? Ma Keng? If it doesn't work, just sprinkle some lime powder to fascinate his eyes."
Hearing that Liu Xin had even recommended such tricks, the generals were stunned, and Zhao Yun and others had black lines on their foreheads.
"Don’t think so much. There are people with high martial arts skills in this world, like Xiahou Dun and Xia Houyuan under Cao Cao, Yan Liang and Wen Chou under Yuan Shao, Ji Ling under Yuan Shu, and Tai Shici under Liu Yu are not to be underestimated. It seems that regardless of the white cat or the black cat, as long as it can catch the mouse, it is a good cat. Similarly, no matter what method is used, as long as it can defeat these people is a good way," Liu Xin continued, ignoring their expressions. "In marching wars, we must pay attention to the coordination of the various arms. We must form a whole to give full play to the most powerful combat effectiveness. Okay, let's not talk about this. Let's go to the city and pick up the wind for Mr. Mi's family."
There were as many as 7,000 servants accompanied by Mi Zhu. Naturally, it was impossible for all of them to enter the city of Xiangyang. As early as when he learned that Mi Zhu wanted to move his family to Jingzhou, Liu Xin ordered someone to build a temporary construction site in Fancheng, opposite the Han River. There is a manor for them to live in, and Mi Zhu’s wives, concubines and children can live in a big house in Dongcheng District.
At this time, the house where Mi's family stayed in Xuzhou was also cleaned up. Liu Bei took Guan Yu and Jianyong and stood in the hall with great ambition. Now Tao Qian has left Mi's family in Xuzhou's property. In addition to this house, there were other houses and fields that were given to Liu Bei. Because Mi Zhu went in a hurry, he only took away the soft gold and silver, and many heavy and heavy objects were left behind, so you can move in by simply packing up. Even so, Jian Yong was still busy for two days.
Seeing that Liu Bei was very satisfied with his "labor results", Jian Yong also stroked his beard under his chin and said with a smile: "Master, the subordinates have just checked the accounts. The Mi family is really rich, Liang Tian Jingda With these fields, the lord no longer has to worry about money and food in two years with these fields. Look at these houses, which one is not magnificent, please go to the inner house to take a look."
After listening to Jian Yong’s words, Liu Bei suddenly became vigilant. He looked at the spacious and bright hall, touched several cases with exquisite decorations, shook his head, and said, “You don’t need to go to the inner house. You can go from this hall. As the saying goes, it’s easy to change from simple to extravagant, and difficult to change from extravagant to simple. We don’t have the capital of arrogance, constitution and harmony. You can let people clean up a courtyard, and the furnishings should be simpler. The second brother lives there, let’s leave the inner house empty."
Guan Yu was moved inexplicably, and quickly said, "Big brother, wise,"
Jian Yong said with some embarrassment: "Back to the lord, the madam has moved to the back house, do you want to..."
When Liu Bei was young, he married several wives and concubines. However, it is said that his life was too hard, and several of his wives and concubines were killed by him. Only Mrs. Gan was left. Mrs. Gan's name was Gan Mei, who was originally a concubine of Liu Bei. , Her status is humble, but because she is now the only woman beside Liu Bei, Jian Yong treats her with extreme respect and has always regarded her as a wife. Moreover, Jian Yong also hopes that she can give birth to Liu Bei as soon as possible and give Liu Bei a son and a half daughter. There are successors, so I cleaned up the house early and asked Mrs. Gan to move in, so as to create a gentle town for Liu Bei.
However, after Mrs. Gan was picked up by Xiao Pei, Liu Bei did not share a room with her for a day. Where did she give birth to a child, Liu Bei was not a bad girl, but he had great ambitions, especially after he got the jade seal that passed down the country. The ambition to contend for the world gradually sprouted up. Only Yu and Jianyong were able to win over him. Guan Yu’s martial arts were his most proud capital in fighting for the world. In order to make Guan Yu work hard for him, Liu Beidu It’s at the same table with Guan Yushi, and at the same table when sleeping,
Now that he moved into the big house of Mi’s family, Liu Bei had also thought about it and wanted to have a good time, but he quickly woke up, with his current status and strength, how difficult it is to achieve this goal. Therefore, he always warned himself that he must be cautious in everything, and must not be overwhelmed.
However, Gan Mei is also a famous beauty. He has followed Liu Bei for many years. Liu Bei didn't want to treat her too badly, so he waved his hand and said, "Since Madam has moved in, let her live in the inner house."
The Mi family occupies a huge area, even Tao Qian’s prefecture and animal husbandry is less than half of this place. It is naturally effortless to find a clean courtyard, and Jian Yong is now like Liu Bei’s butler, having finished the house. The things here, hurried to the outside of the city, according to the catalog provided by Tao Qian, one by one accepted the Mi family and Tianchan.
Liu Bei watched Guan Yu sit down opposite him, took out an object from his arms, put it on several cases, and said solemnly: "Second brother, this was brought back from the battlefield for brother, Cao Bao's. Qingqi suffered a great loss after eating this thing."
Guan Yu picked up the spiky, swarthy little thing and looked at it carefully. He couldn't help but be surprised: "Big brother, Liu Xin is really rich. Such a little thing is actually made with a good iron."
Liu Bei nodded and said, "It is not unreasonable that the Jingzhou Army is invincible. I heard that they are equipped with a lot of unexpected equipment, so after this battle, they sent someone to the battlefield to search, and I found this small spike. Although this spiky ball is small, it can easily pierce a horse's hoof. It is indeed a weapon against cavalry."
Guan Yu fiddled with the zama nails on his hands, and said for a while in deep thought: "Brother, although we are not rich with Liu Xin, it is not difficult to build some small things like this. In the future, there will be no need to worry about the enemy's cavalry."
This time when he pursued Mi Zhu, Guan Yu almost caused Zhang Liao’s cavalry to suffer heavy losses on his own, but the powerful assault power of that cavalry still made him feel lingering. Now that he saw this nail, he couldn’t help but feel that it was developed by Liu Xin. Equipping to deal with Liu Xin is simply the best idea in the world.
Liu Bei gave a high-five and laughed: "The second brother makes sense. I am afraid that Liu Xin would never have imagined that this little thing he worked hard to make would be of use to me."
In fact, it is more than Liu Bei and Guan Yu who are complacent now. Cao Cao also stood on the occupying stage of the school field with his hands on his shoulders. He looked at the few beloved generals who were riding their horses crisscrossing below, with a gratified smile on his face, and turned his head and said. : "Yuan Rang, how do you feel with these two pedals under the saddle?"
Xiahoudun arched his hands and said, "Going back to the lord, with these two feet, it is easier to maneuver the horse. Even people who have not practiced riding and shooting, as long as a little training, even if they wield a knife and gun, there is no problem in rushing back and forth."
Xun You said with a smile: "It's no wonder that Liu Xin's cavalry can compete with Dong Zhuo's Xiliang cavalry. With these two footsteps, the lord can also train an elite cavalry. "
Xiahoudun frowned and said, "There is just one thing. You can't run long distances with this kind of pedaling. Otherwise, the rope connecting the saddle and the pedals will easily break, and it will grind the horse belly, so the riding practice cannot be relaxed. "
It turned out that what they used was a "pirated" stirrup from Liu Xin. The semi-circular part was similar to the stirrup, except that the connection was simply tied to the saddle with a thin hemp rope. In this way, not only There are these two problems mentioned by Xiahou Dun, and the stirrups will sway back and forth, the effect is naturally far less than the stirrups used in Liu Xinjun, and there are still no small requirements for riding skills.
Cao Cao didn’t care about these details. He said with emotion: “It’s pretty good to be able to do this. It seems that Liu Xin’s men have really collected many strange people, and even such things can be imagined. Cao’s rival in this life. Not in Hebei, but in Jingzhou, Wen Ruo was able to persuade Liu Xin this time and let us have two years to calmly deal with Yuan Shao. It can be said that this is the first achievement."
While talking, a soldier came to report that Xun Yu had returned from Xiangyang, and Cao Cao hurriedly said, "Hurry up, Wen Ruo, please come here."
In fact, the tasks Cao Cao gave to Xun Yu were not completely completed, because Liu Xin still firmly refused to recognize Liu Xie’s emperor status, but he was able to get his promise not to use force with Cao Cao within two years, which is considered acceptable.
However, Xun Yu still had a worried expression on his face. When he saw Cao Cao, he folded his hands and said, "Lord, there is a subordinate that I don't know if it is inappropriate to speak."
Cao Cao took his hand and said: "Wen Ruo, this time you are going to Xiangyang, you must have gained a lot. If you have anything to say, it doesn't matter."
Xun Yu said sternly: "Back to the lord, my subordinates thought that the lord’s worries were not in Yuan Shao, but in Liu Xin."
"I don't need to talk about this matter. Cao also knows that Liu Xin is the real confidant, so he wants to solve Yuan Shao as soon as possible, so as to free up his hands to deal with Liu Xin," Cao Cao nodded and said, "Liu Xin asked Cao If a certain person surrendered the culprit who attacked Xiangyang, Ivan Ruo thinks, who should be handed over to him,"
Xun Yu shook his head and said: "Back to the lord, the subordinates thought it was not important who handed over to Liu Xin. What is important is whether it is necessary to hand over such a person to Liu Xin."
Cao Cao asked in surprise: "Wen Ruo, you have promised Liu Xin about this matter, so why are you saying this now?"
