Cao Yu patted Cao Cao's shoulder in consolation.
"Big brother, you're really miserable!"
Cao Cao wanted to beat him up, but was this bastard trying to comfort him?
Horses were still fine in the Northwest region, but not many of them flowed into the Central Plains. In addition, during the war, horses could not be bought even if one had money or no connections. As for the South, they were rare goods.
Therefore, before Boss Cao had made a name for himself, not to mention good horses, even the second-class warhorses were treasures. Only after Yuan Shao was destroyed and the north was occupied could he form a large cavalry team.
"Don't be silly. When you become rich in the future, big brother will definitely find you a peerless precious steed.”
"Hehe, big brother, you said it yourself, so I'll remember it.”
"Haha, of course. For a peerless and fierce general like you, if you don't have a peerless and precious steed to match you, how can you gallop on the battlefield and kill the general and seize the flag?”
"Then it's up to me! Big brother, you are in charge of the three armies at the back, strategizing, and I am in charge of the front lines. As a martial artist, if you don't complete the achievement of taking the head of an enemy general in an army of ten thousand, how can you be called a fierce general?”
Looking at his heroic brother, Cao Cao was overjoyed and his pride was aroused.
"Good! In the future, the two of us brothers will go into battle to kill the enemy together. We will make contributions and bring glory to our ancestors. Our names will be passed down through the ages.”
After saying that, the two brothers looked at each other and laughed!
Very good! There was finally a promising one among my brothers who could help me. I was very comforted!
"Big brother, I've been standing for so long. I'm tired. I'm going back to lie down!”
Where's my saber?
"You salted fish, when can you really turn over?”
"Big brother, no matter how much a salted fish turns over a new leaf, it's still a salted fish!”
...
"I'll kill you, you bastard!"
My ancestors are above me, I, Cao Cao…It was too difficult!
After a night of silence, the entire army set out for Luoyang the next day.
Since they were not in a hurry to travel, the army only traveled a few dozen li a day. At this speed, it would take about seven days to reach Luoyang.
Three days had passed, and Cao Yu had been eating dry food or a little dried meat every day. How could he, who had been living a luxurious life since he was young, stand it?
While they were setting up camp, he pulled Xiahou Yuan aside.
"Miao Cai, your archery skills are good. Go and get two wild animals. I'll be in charge of processing them. How about we brothers add more food?”
"Why don't you go yourself and ask me to go? Oh, I see. You don't know how to shoot arrows, right?”
"Of course not. I'm not going because... I'm lazy!"
Xiahou Yuan believed Cao Yu's reason.
"Hurry up and go. I guarantee that you'll have an endless aftertaste. You'll even want to swallow the bones.”
"I really can't do anything to you!"
Raising his bow and arrow, Xiahou Yuan walked into the dense forest while Cao Yu began to prepare the barbeque.
Not long after, Xiahou Yuan returned with two pheasants, two hares, and a deer. Cao Yu was overjoyed.
"Not bad, your speed."
"I'm lucky, I got a pile!"
The two of them sneakily left the camp and came to a small stream.
"Lord Xiahou, sit down after you start the fire.”
"Heh, alright. I'll see what kind of delicious food you can make.”
He skillfully peeled the skin and cleaned it clean. Then, he took out the simple iron pot that he had made. He added some medicinal herbs to a pheasant as the base and began to stew the soup.
A simple barbeque grill was set up, and all the remaining game was placed on it.
Soon, the fragrance wafted out, and Cao Yu continued to add various ingredients.
Xiahou Yuan, who was sitting at the side, swallowed his saliva. It smelled so good.
"Xian Liu, what are you doing?”
"It's all some medicinal herbs ground into powder, such as fennel or herbs. I specially prepared it before I set off.”
The rabbit pheasant was first roasted. Xiahou Yuan couldn't wait to snatch it and take a big bite.
Although it was so hot that it cried out, it was reluctant to spit out the meat in its mouth because it was too fragrant!
"It's too delicious. I've never eaten such a fragrant barbecue before. It's a pity.”
"Haha... How can there be no wine at a barbecue?"
Under Xiahou Yuan's surprised gaze, Cao Yu took out two small bottles of yellow wine.
He gave her a thumbs up and said,"Not bad, energetic young man!"”
"Of course! This is Eldest Brother's treasured wine, and I managed to get it with great difficulty.”
Xiahou Yuan, who had just snatched one of the bottles and drank a mouthful, choked.
"You, you, you…Don't tell me you dug out Meng De's Daughter Red?”
When his daughter was born, the father would brew three jars of good wine and bury them deep underground. When his daughter got married, he would dig them out as dowry gifts. One jar would be given to himself, and the remaining two jars would be given to his daughter's husband and father-in-law. This was the origin of Nu Er Hong.
However, it seemed that this custom would only rise in the Jin Dynasty, so he would borrow it here first.
"How can I? I would never cheat my own niece. This was found in my eldest brother's cellar.”
"How dare you!"
With a laugh, Cao Cao, Xiahou Dun, and the Cao Brothers walked over.
"Haha... Earlier, when I saw the two of you acting sneakily, I knew that there was something fishy going on.”
"Why didn't you call us for such a good thing? Are we still brothers?"
"It smells so good. Everyone, don't stand on ceremony!”
The bandits did not ask for their master's permission. They picked it up and started eating. Immediately, waves of exclamations sounded.
"It's actually so delicious!"
"Good, I didn't expect you to have such ability, Xian Liu.”
Cao Yu rolled his eyes. A few people came to snatch food. This bit of meat was not enough to share.
"If you want to enjoy yourself, how can you not learn some culinary skills? Although I am lazy, I still understand this logic.”
"That's the truth. Alright, just based on your culinary skills, we'll definitely call you when we have extra meals in the future.”
After that, the few of them stopped talking and started fighting with each other. They were just short of putting on a full show of martial arts. There was no other way. Who asked the wolf to have more meat than the wolf?
