My balcony connects the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 408 Who is your family member?

Today is the beginning of winter, and the customs are different in different places, but there is always the word eat.

After Wei Cheng came back from Mengjin County, he ran into the house wrapped in a mink coat.

Should I say it or not, this era has really entered winter, after a day of cold wind blowing outside, my whole body is as frozen as Xiugou.

As soon as I ran into the house, I smelled a strong aroma of rice wine.

"Ginger boiled rice wine, the more you drink, the better it will be."

Wei Cheng walked around the screen with a smile, and sure enough, he saw a wine warmer on the table, a small charcoal stove underneath, and a pottery pot on top, filled with water, and several small wine jugs neatly placed in the water.

Seeing Wei Cheng coming back, Cai Yan hurried forward to help him take off his coat.

"Why did you come back so late?" Cai Yan asked while reaching out to straighten Wei Cheng's collar.

Wei Cheng's hands were a little cold, and he couldn't bear to shake her hand, and said with a smile, "I happened to meet a caravan picking goods, and the road was blocked for a while."

Cai Yan nodded, pulled him to sit down, and ordered his servants to deliver the food.

Not long after, the table was filled with all kinds of delicacies, and most of them were greasy and nourishing things.

Sauce elbow, grilled lamb chops, stewed beef, stewed chicken soup with old ginseng, old duck soup with dendrobium, and the only vegetarian dish is a vinegared Chinese cabbage.

"Try it quickly, I learned how to make it from Aunt Niu." Cai Yan asked for credit.

Wei Cheng looked at the hard dishes on the table, and he was not polite, he picked up the chopsticks and ate it, no matter whether it was good or not, he would praise it after taking a bite.

Not to mention, Cai Yan dared to present treasures, these dishes taste really good.

Wei Cheng ate a lamb chop and gave Cai Yan a thumbs up.

Seeing that he was eating happily, Cai Yan was overjoyed in his heart, and he waited for the pourer and wiped his mouth, just like an old lady.

"By the way, where are Dabao and Erbao?"

"You, it's only now that I think of them."

Cai Yan patted Wei Cheng's arm reproachfully, and said with a smile, "They were all picked up by my father. With the nurses watching over them, everything will be fine."

Wei Cheng nodded slightly, suddenly remembered something, and turned to look at Cai Yan.

"What's wrong, you're looking at me like that?" Cai Yan touched her cheek, her cheeks were rosy, with some baby fat on them.

Wei Cheng chuckled and said, "Yan'er, have you ever heard a saying, full, warm, thinking..."

···
huh~
boom!
The huge explosion echoed in the mountains and forests, startling birds and beasts away.

Huang Xu looked down at the Thunder Dragon Cannon in his hand, shook his head and said, "Compared to the old man, my accuracy is still a bit worse."

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu next to each other gave a wry smile.

Sun Ce said: "This Thunder Dragon cannon is already very powerful. If it can aim at any place and hit it, it will be terrible."

Zhou Yu also said: "As it is now, it is enough. In fact, this Thunder Dragon cannon is most suitable for use when the two armies are at war. You only need to aim at a place where there are crowds of people and shoot a cannon. Even if it is not accurate enough, it is also full of lethality. "

How could Huang Xu not know this truth, but he didn't want to stop there, after thinking about it, he didn't explain it.

Not far away, a group of soldiers escorted a few natives over.

Sun Ce took a look and asked them to send people to open up wasteland. This place is like spring all year round, and it is a good place to grow rice.

Zhou Yu has already calculated that if rice can be grown in this place, coupled with reasonable planning, it should be able to achieve three crops a year. Can harvest 180 stone.

In this era when food is money, farmland is like an inexhaustible mint.

And the productivity of the farmland here is three times that of the Central Plains, so it's hard not to be rich.

The three of them returned to the city. The so-called city was actually a piece of houses built with bamboo.

Tens of thousands of natives originally lived here, and there was a king who called their country Ayutthaya.

Everyone laughed at that time, a broken place without even a brick city wall dared to call itself a big city, it was ridiculous.

Huang Xu fired a few shots directly, and the so-called palace was blown down.

In the bamboo house.

The three of them sat facing each other, and the subordinates brought over a sumptuous amount of food, mostly fruits, and a few roasted deer legs.

"According to the native's description, about ten days west of here, there is a large tribe with more than [-] people. This tribe makes a living by growing crops. Then you can see what kind of grain they grow."

Zhou Yu took a sip of wine, looked up at Sun Ce, and asked, "Ten days' journey is actually not too far. It's just winter, so the grain should be harvested there, right?"

Sun Ce nodded while eating the meat, "It should be, why?"

Zhou Yu reminded angrily: "The food we brought is almost exhausted, and we don't know when the next batch of supplies will arrive. Therefore, no matter what happens, this indigenous tribe must collect them as soon as possible."

The two nodded tacitly and looked at Huang Xu at the same time.

And found the boy wiping the barrel of his gun with venison fat, the real barrel.

Seeing that both of them were looking at him, Huang Xu put the gun back together, raised his eyes and said, "You should also know that the ammunition on my side is almost running out, so I can only give you some support at that time, with bows and arrows at most." One or two."

Sun Ce was overjoyed when he heard the words, "I'm relieved if you have these words."

Huang Xu is able to get along with him, and he really loves when things happen. It is also because of his true temperament that he has gained the true friendship between Sun Ce and Zhou Yu. The three of them are likely to become brothers of the opposite sex.

After eating.

Zhou Yu suddenly remembered that there was another group of people rushing here, and he didn't know what was going on with them.

When mentioning Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, Huang Xu and Sun Ce had different expressions.

Huang Xu was naturally delighted, he and Zhang Fei had a good relationship, it would be a good thing if they could meet in another place.

But Sun Ce is different. Guan Yu is his father-killing enemy, and he will never let go of this hatred no matter what.

It's okay if he doesn't meet, but if he does meet, even if he doesn't want to get everything so hard, he will fight Guan Yu to the death.

···
at the same time.

In a valley more than 800 miles north of Sun Ce and his party.

"Bah, bah, what is this, why is it so unpalatable?" Zhang Fei spat out the meat in his mouth, frowning.

The chef in charge of cooking said with a wry smile: "There is no way, the seasoning we brought has been used up, and there is only a little salt left, let's eat some."

Zhang Fei shook his head helplessly. Compared with a month ago, he should not be too embarrassed at this time.

Not to mention the unshaven beard, the dragon mountain armor on his body was also damaged in many places, and it was no longer as clean and beautiful as before.

No matter how well-equipped the Longshan Army was, traveling through mountains and rivers for more than a month would be exhausting.

In addition, the supply of supplies was cut off, and the dry food brought by the sergeants was also exhausted. After finally arriving at the destination, there was not even a bite of food that could be eaten.

I can only catch some wild animals to feed my hunger. Not to mention the fishy smell is hard to swallow, and it is easy to eat the stomach, so I have to be careful with every bite, for fear that there will be some small bugs in the meat that will make people vomit and diarrhea.

This is the so-called: It is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. If you are used to delicious food, you will naturally look down on barbecue with only salt added.

On the contrary, the rear army was full of food. Of the 5000 troops Guan Yu brought, there are now only more than 3000 left. Hundreds of them died on the road, and hundreds of others escaped. It is already high fever to reach the destination safely. It's so fragrant, how can I be picky eaters.

It's just that although there is no shortage of food, this mental state cannot be adjusted for a while, and many people in the army have lost their eyesight.

The next day, the army continued to move south.

The scout in charge of exploring the terrain suddenly sent a message that in the southwest direction, a small tribe was discovered, including thousands of acres of paddy fields, dozens of cattle and countless poultry.

This news came too timely. It has been more than a month, and they have never seen other people except their own people. They even wondered if they went the wrong way. Now that they finally saw the village, they were naturally overjoyed.

There was no reaction from Guan Yu, but the Longshan army brought by Zhang Fei couldn't sit still, and immediately set off.

It was the first time he was in a different place, and the Longshan Army did not dare to be careless.

Three times before and after sending people to explore the way.

After confirming that the group of aborigines had no iron tools and were even hunting with sharpened bamboos, they were immediately happy.

Without any suspense, a thousand men in heavy armor rushed directly into the sheep.

In just one hour, thousands of natives were captured, and a large amount of rice and various crops were harvested.

By the time Guan Yu arrived with his men, the battle here was over.

"Third brother, how are the casualties?"

When Guan Yu found Zhang Fei, the boy was tasting the delicacies made by the natives.

The venison stewed with various fruits does not taste very good, but it is already rare and delicious compared to the barbecue with only salt.

Seeing Guan Yu coming, Zhang Fei grinned and said with a laugh: "Second brother, come and taste the stewed meat, it's delicious."

Seeing that he answered irrelevant questions, Guan Yu knew that Longshan's army was not injured in any way.

Glancing at the young girl and the old woman who were in charge of cooking, she frowned and reminded, "Third brother, these people?"

Zhang Fei waved his hand indifferently, took a sip of the soup happily, and said, "Don't worry, their families are all in my hands. Don't they dare to poison me to death?"

"Besides, I have this." Zhang Fei pulled out a silver hairpin from his hair and shook it at Guan Yu.

Seeing that he was so careful, Guan Yu immediately relieved himself, glanced at the food on the banana leaf, and swallowed reluctantly.

"Don't look at it, eat it, the poison won't kill you." Zhang Fei picked up a grilled fish and handed it over, pointing to the bamboo chair beside him and said.

Guan Yu didn't hesitate anymore, took the grilled fish and started to gobble it up.

After eating and drinking, the two picked their teeth while inspecting this wild and backward small tribe.

Both of them were overjoyed to see the thousands of acres of paddy fields with their own eyes. With these fields, this place can be used as a stronghold.

"It's not easy. After walking for almost two months, we only laid down such a small village. But fortunately, everything is worth it. After we take a rest, next..."

"Ah~"

While Zhang Fei was talking, a girl's scream suddenly came from the bamboo house not far away.

Zhang Fei knew what was going on as soon as he heard it, and immediately ran towards the bamboo house angrily. Seeing this, Guan Yu hurriedly followed.

More than a dozen men outside the bamboo house were lying on the door frame and windows looking in.

"Hey, this little girl looks pretty juicy, hurry up inside, we're still waiting in line."

"Squeeze whatever, come one by one."

"Damn it, this bitch's claws are so powerful, she almost caught Lao Liu's eyes blind, and she will break them when she goes in later."

"Don't be so cruel, just two people can catch it, the little girl doesn't have much strength..."

Zhang Fei ran closer and found that there were more than a dozen men around the room, each of them uttering obscene language, and there were still sounds of beating and scolding and women's screams coming out of the room, and he was so angry that he raised his leg and kicked it.

"Damn it, what are you doing?"

"Hey, who, that bitch kicked me?"

Zhang Fei's eyes widened with anger, he snatched a spear from a soldier, and smashed it directly on the man's leg.

Just listen to 'click'.

"Ah, my legs, my legs..."

Zhang Fei dropped his spear, pushed away a few people at the door, and rushed directly into the house.

I saw two soldiers grabbing a girl about twelve or thirteen years old, and the other one had a hideous face, and was about to pounce on her.

Zhang Fei was so angry that he stepped forward and aimed at the man's buttocks, directly kicking him.

Click!

The sudden severe pain was life-threatening. Zhang Fei kicked out with hatred, and the two eggs exploded on the spot.

Seeing this, the two holding the girl were so frightened that they hurriedly let go of the girl and knelt down to beg for mercy.

Zhang Fei frowned thickly. He first took off his cloak and threw it to the girl to cover his body. Then he stepped forward and kicked the two kneeling on the ground, "You bastards, who told you to do this?" of?"

At this time, Guan Yu also rushed into the house, and when he saw the girl and the soldier who had been kicked to pieces, he also frowned.

Seeing that Zhang Fei was going to hurt someone, he stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Fei, and said in a deep voice: "Third brother, a mere barbarian, why do you want to make such a big move against your family?"

Zhang Fei's thick eyebrows twitched, and he turned his head to look at his good second brother in disbelief, "Who is my family?"

Guan Yu opened his mouth.

The two brothers fell silent for a moment.

Not long after, more than a dozen men from the Longshan Army came outside. Seeing the situation inside, one of the men asked loudly, "Mr. Zhang, are you dealing with it according to the military law?"

Zhang Fei looked at Guan Yu's furrowed brows, and shouted in a deep voice: "What did you say about the waste mother? Arrest the three of them and deal with them according to the military law. Whoever dares to have an opinion will be punished!"

After finishing speaking, he snorted coldly, stepped forward and picked up the crying girl, and walked out.

Guan Yu looked back at Zhang Fei's leaving back, and suddenly regretted what he had just said.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Zhang Fei looked at him at the end with a sense of alienation and strangeness.

After half an hour.

Zhang Fei ordered everyone to be called together, including Guan Yu's more than 3000 horsemen and all the natives.

And in front of everyone, he personally swung a knife and chopped off the heads of the three strong female culprits.

In troubled times, heavy codes should be used, especially when marching outside. These three people were also unlucky.

Seeing the heads rolling to the ground, Guan Yu and the more than 3000 soldiers he brought with him fell silent.

On the other hand, the natives were whispering, and the eyes looking at Zhang Fei gradually lost their fear and panic, and instead showed a trace of gratitude.
