Going Out with Father
After Wang Lang left. I closed the door and said to my father,"Father, I have understood the entire art of war of Master Wu. It will not be a problem for me to lead the army." The Yellow Turban rebels were actually commoners, a motley crew. As long as we use the art of war, even if we can't win, we might not lose. Moreover, Zhang Ying of Moling is defending the city, and he has sufficient rations and eight thousand soldiers. We still have the strength to fight. He just didn't know who the general of the Yellow Turban Army was, how many lieutenants there were, and where the troops, money, and supplies were stored. It was the right thing to do before his father sent out his troops.”
"That makes sense. I've really grown up. I'll send someone to investigate. Go back to your room and prepare. After I've made the arrangements, we'll lead the troops to battle.”After hearing my words, my father seemed very pleased.
I returned to my room and sighed. It had been some time since he had come to this world. I have always loved the Three Kingdoms World. There has never been a time in the history of the Celestial Empire where there have been so many civil and military officials! Today, I can finally go out and meet the heroes in my heart!
Although I have fought many battles in the game. However, this was the first time he was actually on the battlefield. Right now, my hands were trembling. I couldn't describe the feelings I felt. Was it excitement, excitement, or fear? The face of the kitten suddenly appeared in my mind. I'm only thirteen years old in this world. I don't know how old Kitten is. Kitten, where can I find you in this vast world!
"Big brother, don't worry. You will definitely meet again." Little He Qi suddenly spoke in my mind.
"Kid, you rarely take the initiative to look for me. If you have something to say, say it quickly.”I asked him.
"Big brother, it's like this. I passed by Moling on my way back from Beihai. As far as I know, Moling City is high and the river is deep, and the Yangtze River is on both sides. Only two gates can be attacked. One was the south gate, and the other was the east gate. The south gate was close to the port, and it was less than a hundred miles from the port to the south gate. The terrain in the middle was flat, and there was only a small forest about thirty miles from the south gate. However, the forest was very small. There were at most 300 soldiers stationed inside, so it was easy to hear the movements inside. I think the Yellow Turban Army will attack Moling from the south gate. The east gate is close to Wujun, from Wujun to Moling can be reached in three days. If the soldiers are well-trained, I estimate that we will arrive in ten days at most. I wonder how well the three thousand soldiers Wang Lang gave us are trained and equipped.”Little He Qi said.
"Well, Wang Lang said that he's not good, so there's definitely no chance. I estimate that it will take us about 20 days to reach the battlefield, including the time when we bring our troops to Wu County. We still need to replenish our money and food." I thought about it and said.
Just as I was talking to Little He Qi, Chief He Fu came in with a set of armor. "Young Master, Old Master asked you to change into armor. He also asked me to ask you what weapon you use?”
"Weapon, I'll use a sword." Actually, I don't know how to use anything. I'm just pretending. It should be slightly lighter to use a sword.
"I'll go get it now." After saying that, the manager went out.
I took this opportunity to change into my armor. I looked into the mirror. The person in the mirror was wearing a white silk scarf, a beast-face armor, a lion belt, and lion boots.
At this moment, the butler came in. "Young Master, I've brought the sword over. Young Master, you look so majestic in your armor.”The butler took out a bronze mirror." This is the Heart Protection Mirror. Old Master asked you to wear it on your chest just in case.”
"Yes, I understand." I picked up the sword and pulled it out. The sword was three feet and six minutes long. I flicked the sword with my middle finger and it made a clang.
"Good sword! Uncle Fu, where did daddy get this armor and sword?”I was so excited.
"Speaking of this armor, that year, the old master caught two illegal salt dealers. The old master saw that they were pitiful and let them go. Later, one of them thanked Old Master for his kindness and gave it to Old Master. It seemed to be called Chain Armor. This 'Sword of Taia' was bought by Old Master when he was escorting official salt to Luoyang. It was said that a family of officials had offended the head eunuch, Zhang Rang. When she left home to avoid trouble, she hid at Old Master's place. The old master gave him money, but the other party did not accept it and sold the sword to the old master. This Heart Protection Mirror was passed down from our He family. Old Master hadn't used it for so many years. When he heard that Young Master was going to go on an expedition, Old Master took out all the treasures in the box. Old Master was really concerned about Young Master. Young Master, you have to protect Old Master well. You have to be careful too.”The butler reminded me with concern.
"Mm, thanks, Uncle Fu. I will be careful." I kept the treasure he gave me.
"Young Master, let me help you comb your hair. You didn't comb it well!”The butler smiled at me.
"Yes, thank you!" I nodded.
Enjoying the feeling of Barkley combing my hair, I thought unnaturally, This is my favorite world of the Three Kingdoms. With long hair tied up and a sharp sword in hand, the generals of the Three Kingdoms are probably all so awe-inspiring!
After Barkley left, I wrapped my precious books in oilcloth and buried them under the big tree at the door of the room. He had to be wary of others. Although my little He Qi and I have already memorized it, it's still safer to hide it.
Then, I came to the Martial Arts Practice Field. Father is already waiting for me there. Five hundred government troops, two hundred and fifty sword-shield soldiers and two hundred and fifty spearmen, were all ready to go. It was necessary to boost morale before setting off.
He heard his father shouting loudly," Brothers, how do I usually treat everyone?”
"Very good. Milord has never delayed our pay for a day. Sometimes the court's military pay is not paid on time, and Daren will take out the money himself to give it to us.”
"Sir, you treat us like brothers. Our wives and children have all been taken to Jian An City and settled down.”
"Daren is a rare honest official in the Great Han Dynasty!”
"Milord, within a radius of 500 li, those who don't call you 'Great Philanthropist He'!”
Everyone answered their father's question at once.
"Good!" His father waved his hand, signaling for everyone to be quiet. He then said,"Recently, the Yellow Turban rebels have gathered in Yangzhou to rebel. They have already begun to attack Moling. If we take down Moling, then it will be Wu County's turn-our Kuaiji. Governor Liu of Yangzhou asked me to lead you and three thousand soldiers of Wu County to rescue Moling. Are you guys willing to go?" His father asked the soldiers loudly.
"I'm willing! He was willing! I'm willing!" The five hundred people said in unison.
" Alright, we-" Before Father could finish his words, he heard me say from behind him," Father, let me say a few words!”
"This time, in order to attack Moling, my son has to serve the country. The Governor of Wu County has appointed him as my deputy general. Now, let him say a few words to you." As expected of his father, who had been in the officialdom for so many years, he changed the topic so quickly.
I took two steps forward and stood parallel to my father."Just now, my father told you about the mission. I will now tell everyone about the reward the Imperial Court has given us this time. If we win this time, each of us will be rewarded with ten big bucks. If anyone could kill the enemy general, he would be rewarded with a hundred coins. If you kill the enemy general, you will be rewarded with 1,000 coins.”After saying that, I pulled out my sword and pointed it at the sky."To serve the country! Fight bravely to kill the enemy!"
"To serve the country! Courage to kill the enemy!"
"To serve the country! Courage to kill the enemy!"
"To serve the country! Courage to kill the enemy!"
The five hundred men raised their weapons and shouted three times. The dust on the ground flew up, and it looked like the morale had indeed increased. Then, I took a step back and whispered to my father, Father, we can set off now."
His father nodded and said loudly,""Let's go!" My father and I mounted our horses, and the five hundred people behind us followed us in an orderly manner.
As soon as I left the city, my father rode beside me and asked in a low voice,"How can you talk about rewards so casually?"
"Although these government troops are elite, they are not regular soldiers on the battlefield. I did it to boost morale. Besides, as long as they do it, even if the Imperial Court doesn't reward them, we will reward them. Now is a chaotic time, we must have a personal guard by our side to serve us.”I replied softly.
"Yes, morale has indeed risen. However, I still don't quite understand what you meant just now. What are your plans? Why didn't you make it clear at home?" His father asked softly.
"Father, you are the history of the salt guards, but what do you think of the current world?”I didn't answer.
"The Yellow Turban rebels are outside, and the eunuchs are inside.”Father shook his head and sighed.
"None of this is important. Which dynasty has never had eunuchs disrupting politics and the people rebelling? Let's talk about the rebellion of Xu Shao and his son in Xuchang more than ten years ago in Kuaiji. Although you were escorting official salt in Luoyang at that time, you should also know about it. In today's world, the most dangerous thing was the separation of the warlords. On the surface, they all obeyed the imperial court, but in reality, they all had their own plans. A few loyal officials were afraid of Zhang Rang and the other eunuchs, so they became officials cautiously and fearfully. His father had been able to keep his official position for the past few years. Wasn't it because he had used money from top to bottom? Otherwise, how could his father have been in this position for more than twenty years? But today, the Yellow Turban rebels were rebelling, and the world might change drastically. Therefore, his father had to cultivate his own strength and protect himself. I haven't said this at home because, firstly, you and I have been busy recently, and secondly, I don't trust anyone in the family.”I answered fluently.
After hearing this, his father did not say a word for a long time. Perhaps he had to think about it.
After three days, the brigade finally saw Wu County.
