All the generals withdrew one by one, but only Xun You stayed, and Xu Chu stood behind Cao Cao without moving.
Xun You waited for a while to make sure that all the generals were gone, and then said: "Lord, I have found out that there is indeed an east wind above the river!"
Cao Cao raised his head and stared at Xun You with sharp eyes. Even though Xun You had followed Cao Cao for many years, he felt uncomfortable being stared at.
Cao Cao said: "Xiao Wu said there is an east wind, so there must be one. It's good that you can stabilize the morale of the army when the generals are here."
Xun You then handed over his hands and said: "At the beginning, General Beifu proposed the theory of six defeats, and there was panic in the army. Today we have defeated it, and our morale has been greatly boosted. If we want to advance, we should suppress it first. Besides, I secretly thought that the east wind is blowing at our army, The impact is not big.”
Cao Cao laughed and nodded: "As long as our army goes straight down the river and does not station on the river, can Sun Quan set fire to our ships?"
Xu Chuhao said angrily: "So what if we are stationed there? Let's connect the big ships together and we can all be together. Are we afraid of the wind and waves?"
Cao Cao turned to look at him stiffly: "You mean... a serial ship?"
"Exactly!"
Cao Cao was speechless and threw Cao Wu's letter in front of him.
Xu Chu couldn't recognize a few big characters, so he yelled at Xun You to read them to him.
Xun You had read this letter and knew that it stated that serial boats were not allowed to be used.
Like Xun Yu, he was confused as to why Zhang Liao was used and why he didn't make Cao Cao laugh. He was not surprised by the reminder written before.
Both of them ignored Xu Chu, who could only smile and touch his head.
Xun You added: "There is another incident in the army recently that my lord has to guard against."
"oh?"
"People from the north come from the south and are not used to the moisture in the water. Some people in the army have already contracted the disease. The number is still small at the moment, but I am worried that there will be contagion in the future and more and more people will become sick."
Cao Cao nodded: "This is indeed a problem, but..."
He waved his hand behind the curtain, and a girl came out from behind the curtain.
Xun You looked carefully and saw that the girl had red lips and white teeth, was dressed in linen clothes, was of medium height, but was carrying a wooden box that was taller than her.
The girl's eyes were slightly dark, obviously she had not slept well.
She looked timid and looked uneasily at the burly guard and the red-robed general, whom she had already met.
So she saluted Xun Youyingying, whom she had never seen before, and whispered: "Beifu servant girl A Shi, I have met you sir."
Ah Shi...
Xun You was one of the few people who knew that General Cao of Beifu was incompetent. He knew that all the beauties in Beifu were the only officials who were loyal and good.
In the past, he had a night talk with his uncle Xun Yu, and he once guessed that Cao Wu let each of his maids learn different things, so the number of women and disabled maids in Beifu was not large, but they were a very powerful force.
Xun Yu even used a word he learned from Cao Wu to describe the maids of Beifu.
Special Forces.
He asked tentatively: "Excuse me, Ms. A Shi, where does this come from?"
"Ms." is an honorific title for a female gentleman. As a maidservant of Ah Shi, she should not be called like this, but she is from Beifu. Although she is a mere maidservant, Xun You dare not neglect her.
In fact, in terms of age, Xun You is several years older than Xun Yu. However, there is a difference in seniority. He also admires his uncle's ability and has always been respectful to him.
But this respect was not as good as the respect he had for Cao Wu. Not many people know that as Cao Cao's adviser, Xun You admired most not the advisers in the world, but Cao Wu of Beifu.
Ah Shi waved his hand quickly: "I don't dare to take this seriously... I have been studying medicine since I was a child, and my medical skills are not very good. My general heard about the army coming from the south more than ten days ago, and he was afraid that there was an epidemic in the army, so he was ordered by me to start in Beifu and follow the army to obey orders. Let me Come and treat everyone’s illnesses.”
Xun You's ears twitched, and he knew that the so-called poor medical skills were actually a sign of self-effacement. He was overjoyed and asked in anticipation: "Then Ah Shi... girl, where did you learn from me?"
"My master's surname is Zhang Baoji and his courtesy name is Zhongjing."
Xun You was shocked to find that it was Zhang Zhongjing who had suppressed the spread of epidemics several times during the reign of Emperor Huan and Emperor Ling!
Cao Wu, the general of Beifu, hired such a powerful person just to teach him medical skills from his maidservant!
How many secrets does this Beifu have?
…
Ah Jiu woke up from the big bed in Beifu.
Although Beifu is large, it cannot give each sister a single room. Only those who are eighteen years old or older can have their own house.
Ah Jiu unexpectedly touched someone else on her bed, and someone's fingers were clasped tightly around her.
She woke up with an "ah" sound, and then realized that Ah Qi's fingers were holding her, and her face turned red.
Ah Qi groaned in a daze and said, "Don't leave. The master has been away for several days. His scent is only on you."
"Wha... what master, don't give the general a nickname!"
Ah Jiu's ears were red, because it was winter, and steam was almost coming out of his head.
"The master asked me to scream, uh hehe."
Ah Qi muttered a few words and suddenly felt something in his heart and sat up.
Ah Jiu took Ah Qi's hand away, and she, who was rich but not generous, asked her not rich but generous counterpart: "What's wrong?"
"The sky has changed!"
Ah Qi raised her head, and there was clearly a roof above her head, but she seemed to be able to see the starry sky.
"Master said that if the sky looks like this, the earth will change. Let me see..."
Ah Qi tilted his head, sketched in the air with his hands, and said after a while: "The crouching dragon comes out, the sky moves. The phoenix chick rises, falls into the lake... the earth changes on the lake."
…
On Poyang Lake, a small boat floats on the lake.
The blue water was rippling, and a woman was sitting on the bow of the boat. She had a guqin on her knees. She was dressed in cloth and had no jewelry on her body. But sitting there, she was born with a graceful and luxurious temperament.
The country is beautiful and fragrant.
Her real name has been lost in history, but her nickname has become a household name in later generations.
Xiao Qiao.
Xiao Qiao glanced at the man sitting in front of him with his back facing him and continued playing his own song.
When a note was played, the man suddenly turned around and said with a smile: "Madam, I played the wrong note."
Xiao Qiao looked up, Qingguo's face was full of surprise, and he asked curiously: "It's not wrong?"
Zhou Yu's smile never diminished: "Then I was wrong. Madam, don't worry, just keep playing."
Xiao Qiao was very anxious. There were many famous people in Jiangbiao, but Zhou Yu could be said to be the one who knew the most about music among them.
One time when Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were drinking, the geisha played a wrong note during the dinner. Zhou Yu immediately looked back and pointed out her mistake.
So there was a rumor in the market that "the song was wrong, Zhou Lang took care of it".
Now that I did not make a mistake in playing it, my husband made a mistake in playing it, which shows that my husband is in a confused state of mind.
She said anxiously: "Husband, I heard that Cao's army has eight hundred thousand soldiers. Zhang Changshi and others said it was impossible to defeat them. Can we win?"
Zhou Yu said: "Cao is no more a thief. Madam just plays the piano."
Xiao Qiao nodded lightly and wanted to play the piano again, but her mind was already absent. Finally, she gave up the piano and said, "I'd better go back to Jingkou tomorrow to pray for my husband and the general."
Zhou Yu shook his head: "I don't believe in ghosts and gods. But manpower is sometimes exhausted, and I am actually waiting for an opportunity. Nowadays, the undercurrent in Jiangdong is surging, and the lord is hesitant. I am waiting to see if he will ask me to go back. "
The wind and waves on Poyang Lake were gradually rising, and a small boat came from the pole. It was very close. The little school man who was punting the boat said: "Master Guards! The general has arrived at Chaisang, and I have sent you a message to meet him!"
Zhou Yu suddenly stood up, laughed and said: "Okay! I know that Zhongmou is definitely not a thing in the pool, so he behaves like a father and brother!"
He thought of the friends he had made with him when they were still young.
Together they defeated Hengjiang, entered Moling, occupied Hushu, and attacked Qu'a. There was no single enemy in the six counties east of the Yangtze River.
Even Liu Yao, a clan member of the Han Dynasty who was as powerful as him, was beaten to the point of running away with his head in his arms.
Now that Cao Cao's thief has come south, Jiangdong is full of rats, and no one dares to fight. How can he be worthy of the spirit of his dead friend in heaven?
Thinking of this, he jumped onto the primary school's boat. The boat swayed for a long time. Zhou Yu turned around and said to Xiao Qiao as if walking on flat ground: "Madam, please go back to Jingkou and wait for my good news!"
Xiao Qiao waved goodbye to him, and after waiting for a long time, she remembered that she was weak and it would take who knows how long it would take to get back in the boat, and she felt annoyed and angry.
In the end, within a quarter of an hour, Zhou Yu's subordinates punted the boat around again. It turned out that they were ordered to take her back.
Xiao Qiao then sighed that her husband had a delicate heart and cared for her in every possible way. She had been really stingy just now.
It's a pity that the two of them treat each other like guests, but they always lack some sense of harmony, and there is also some distance between them in daily interactions.
Of course Zhou Lang loves her, but Zhou Lang has the world in his heart. The country is as beautiful as Xiao Qiao, and he can occupy as much as he wants.
She sighed and put away the Yao Qin, only to find unexpectedly that a knob on the strings was a little looser.
She stayed there immediately.
It turns out that Zhou Lang was right and so was Xiao Qiao.
It's the strings that are wrong.
