The autumn air is crisp and cloudless, and the good weather for several days in a row also indicates that some people can no longer sit still.
The construction of Anyi County has come to an end. The county has four gates, and ten trebuchets are installed on each gate.
Weighing head leader finished the final test and was about to report the results to Wei Cheng. When we came to the courtyard where Wei Cheng was, we heard the sound of someone chasing and fighting in the distance.
I was used to weighing my head. When I walked into the yard, I saw little Aning in front, followed by a girl about her age.
The girl had gauze on her forehead and her face looked a little pale. When she saw the scale, she hurriedly stopped and stood aside cautiously.
Aning also saw Chengtou and shouted with a smile: "Brother Chengtou, you are here again." Chengtou chuckled, nodded to the two of them, walked to the study on one side and said: "Sir, slingshot It has been tested properly." Wei Cheng, who was flipping through ancient bamboo slips in the room, raised his head and motioned for him to come in to talk.
Since returning to the Wei family, Wei Cheng has become obsessed with studying ancient books and cannot extricate himself. Needless to say, the Wei family has been passed down for more than four hundred years. There are many medical classics in the collection of books in the family. Although many of them are fantasy-like and have a bit of witchcraft that cannot be explained scientifically, there are also very important references. value.
Since Wei Cheng came into contact with these ancient books, he has almost never left his study, keeping company with Qingdeng ancient books every day.
After Zhengtou entered the house, he sat down cross-legged on a futon. He was from a humble background and was not used to sitting on his knees.
Wei Cheng did the same, using two futons as chairs to sit on, and the low table was raised a little with a swivel to make it easier for him to adjust his sitting posture.
"Sir, I don't have much to do at hand, why don't you give me some more work." He said with a hint.
A few days ago, Xu Huang, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei sent troops together. Zheng Tou was enthused and wanted to follow. Unfortunately, he also had to follow up on the research and development of trebuchets.
Now that it was finally done, he became even more unable to sit still. How could Wei Cheng not understand the implication of his words? This kid had already made insinuations several times.
Wei Cheng always excused himself by saying that he needed the trebuchet. Now that the trebuchet test was over, it seemed like it was time to arrange a new job for him.
After a long silence, Wei Cheng picked up a wooden box from the table beside him.
"This is your next job. I'll give you a month to find a way to make it." Zheng Tou was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward to take the wooden box. After opening the box, there were several fingernail-sized nails inside. Mu Yazi, and a stack of paper filled with words.
If you look carefully, there seems to be words on the micro-end section of the wooden teeth, but they are just reversed (mirror images).
As for the characters on the paper, not a single one is repeated, there are tens of thousands of them, as if they include all the Chinese characters in the world.
Wei Cheng then said: "This task is no easier than marching to fight. I don't trust it if it is left to others, so I can only leave it to you. Don't let me down." Sheng nodded for a moment, and finally nodded helplessly. He nodded, this was another polite rejection.
Wei Cheng looked at his disappointed expression and felt a little sorry. He knew that all the enthusiasm of Zhongtou was on the horse, but he knew that Zhengtou's strength was not as talented as Xu Huang, Zhang Fei and others, and he was the only male in Zhongtou's family, and he had nothing to show for it so far. If he No, how should I explain to the villagers when I turn around?
In fact, including the guards originally formed in Haojia Village, Wei Cheng almost did not let them go out with Xu Huang and others. Most of them stayed in Anyi County and were responsible for the security and defense of the entire city.
He didn't want any accidents to happen to the villagers who had followed him for the first time, so he stayed with him. At least they had gunpowder and other defensive means, and he wasn't afraid of a large army pressing into the city.
This may be a bit pretentious and does not fully respect the personal wishes of the first-class people, but as long as it can keep them alive, Wei Cheng feels that there is nothing wrong with him.
Gu Meng watched as he bowed his head and left, while Wei Cheng sighed helplessly. After reading the book for a while, I felt that I no longer had the concentration I had before.
After thinking about it, he got up and walked to the yard, looking up at the cloudless blue sky. He didn't know if Xu Huang and his party had arrived in Xia County.
This was the bad thing about ancient times. There was no instant communication. A lot of important information came and went over several days, thus wasting the opportunity to fight...···
"Hey, who is coming?"
"So is your grandfather Zhang Fei!"
"Which hair is Zhang Fei?"
"..." Zhang Fei looked furious. He didn't expect that he would be looked down upon so much. He took out the sword from his waist and rushed forward to tear the man apart.
Seeing this, Xu Huang stretched out his Pangu ax to stop him. He looked up at the Xia County City in the distance and said loudly: "A certain person is Longshan Xu Huang. Please get out of the way wisely." There was a commotion from the thousands of white wave infantry on the opposite side, and then the leading knight asked with a pale face: "You, you are Xu Huang?" Xu Huang frowned, raising the Pangu ax high in his hand, ready to strike.
A pair of leopard eyes widened, glaring fiercely at the small soldiers of the White Wave Army who were in a mess in front of them, and said disdainfully: "Do you want to die?"
"Uh, let, let..." The knight backed down to the side very spinelessly, without the momentum that he had just faced Zhang Fei.
Xu Huang snorted coldly, clamped the horse's belly tightly, and galloped towards the city gate first. Guan Yu and others looked at each other and followed closely behind.
When passing by the Bai Bo military captain, Zhang Fei shouted angrily: "Remember, I am Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide. Remember it quickly. One day, I will kill you with one man and one horse, and you will lose your armor. Huh!" Lieutenant Bai Bo's forehead was dripping with cold sweat. He glanced at Xu Huang who was walking away. Although he didn't want to offend this pretty boy, he still smiled apologetically against his will.
Zhang Fei didn't care whether he was really afraid of him or not, he rode proudly to catch up with Xu Huang and Guan Yu. Seeing this pair of cavalry rushing into Xia County, all the Baibo soldiers looked at each other in shock.
Next to the captain, a middle-aged man dressed as a scribe suddenly said: "Brother Liao, your choice is right. This Xu Huang is a murderer. We must inform Commander Li quickly." The captain surnamed Liao wiped. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead. The weather was very cool in the crisp autumn weather, but he was soaked with sweat. At this time, he looked a little embarrassed. After hearing the middle-aged man's suggestion, he nodded decisively: "Yes, inform Commander Li first." Importantly, Xu Huang's sudden appearance in Xia County must be aimed at our Baibo Army." The two looked at each other, and after a while, they both breathed a sigh of relief in tacit agreement.
"Brother Liao, this Xu Huang is really scary. Seeing him seems like meeting the big leader. No, I think he is scarier than the big leader."
"Isn't that right? When I lifted the ax just now, I thought my life was in danger. It almost made me pee."
"Brother Liao is already very powerful. This is a ruthless man who killed a thousand elite members of my Baibo Army with one man and one axe."
"Uh, brother, do you smell the smell of urine?" The middle-aged scribe's face turned red and he tightened his legs quietly. He really couldn't hold it in anymore!
