Xu Huang was a martial artist, and he was highly regarded by Cao Ang.
"Xu Huang is willing to serve as Eldest Young Master's pawn!"”
Done!
Cao Ang was so happy that he almost stuck out his tongue.
He had been worrying about not having a general by his side. Now, he had Xu Huang, a general who had both combat strength and the ability to lead troops, by his side.
It could be said to be like adding wings to a tiger!
"How many troops did Brother Gongming bring?"
"Not many, only five hundred cavalrymen!" Xu Huang replied.”
Cao Ang was delighted. With the 500 cavalrymen brought by Xu Huang, he now had 1000 cavalrymen under him.
Adding on the 600 crossbowmen, that was 1600 people.
Although it wasn't a lot, it was enough!
"Mm, then call a few soldiers over. I want to give them some instructions! To prevent them from being blamed when they go back!"
Xu Huang thought,[Eldest Young Master is indeed benevolent. You're even considering the soldiers who went back to report!]
"Young Master, please wait!"
Soon after, Xu Huang returned with two soldiers. These two were Xu Huang's trusted aides!
Cao Ang shamelessly repeated the bold words he had just said.
Then, he said,"Go back and tell General Zhang Xiu that I have agreed to this marriage, but I have to pacify the Central Plains!"”
What else could the two soldiers say? They could only agree and return with Cao Ang's message!
And his words of pacifying the Central Plains gave Xu Huang a shot in the arm!
With such a young master, why would he have to worry about not inheriting the position of Duke Cao in the future?
If Cao Ang had disloyal intentions, wouldn't he have become the founding father of the country?
Thinking of this, Xu Huang couldn't help but feel excited!
Cao Ang saw that although Xu Huang's subordinates were all cavalrymen, they had all turned into gray donkeys at this time. He guessed that they must have been exhausted from the journey.
He was not in a hurry to hurry.
He ordered Xu Huang's subordinates to get off their horses and rest while he took out a large amount of compressed biscuits, luncheon meat, and purified water as if he was performing a magic trick.
They were distributed one by one to teach these bumpkins how to open cans and water.
Cao Ang even personally demonstrated it!
After everyone clumsily opened it, they were instantly stunned!
In today's era, eating was a problem, let alone meat!
These soldiers barely had a meal of meat in a month.
Now, he saw such a large piece of fresh and fragrant meat in front of him.
Some people almost cried!
For some reason, he shouted,"
"Thank you for your gift, Eldest Young Master!"
Then, hundreds of people shouted in unison,
"Thank you for your kindness, Eldest Young Master. We are willing to die for you!”
Cao Ang felt his heart heat up. The people living in the war-torn era were really pitiful. Just a meal of meat could make them sell their lives!
Cao Ang shouted," Brothers, there's no need to be so polite. Eat as much as you want. If it's not enough, I have more here!"”
The soldiers thanked him again.
Although Cao Ang had said that there was still more, they were reluctant to take a big bite and only chewed bit by bit.
On the other hand, Xu Huang was really hungry. With a few bites, he finished the compressed biscuit in his hand.
"Eldest Young Master, what is this? It's really delicious!”
"Puff!"
This was especially delicious. This thing was not the worst.
If it wasn't for convenience and hunger, who would be willing to eat it!
"Brother Gongming, don't choke on some water!”
"This water, this water is also the best water I've ever drunk in my life. It's a little sweet!”
After taking a big sip, Xu Huang praised!
Sigh! Was this one of the famous Five Generals?
Even a bottle of pure water could be praised like this!
"Brother Gongming, don't worry. As long as you follow me, there will be more delicious food than this in the future!”
Xu Huang's eyes lit up.”
"How can I lie in front of big brother! Besides, wasn't there still Mr. Wen He as a witness?”
Jia Xu had long been shocked by the amount of food that Cao Ang had conjured out of thin air!
He hadn't said a word yet, and had been secretly peeking at what kind of spell Cao Ang had used. These things…
The army rested for another morning.
Seeing that it was almost time, Cao Ang set off for Huayin!
As these 1,000 people were all cavalrymen, it only took an afternoon.
Cao Ang saw the city wall of Huayin in front of him!
When they were still a thousand meters away from Hua Yin, Cao Ang stopped his army.
It was only at this moment that Cao Ang finally understood why Xu Huang was in such a sorry state in the morning!
He looked at Xu Huang beside him and his elites, then at himself.
"Bah!" He spat out the sand in his mouth!
He had practically closed his eyes the entire way here.
Otherwise, his eyes would probably be filled with sand at this moment!
Riding a horse was cool, but that depended on the environment.
On this broken official road, they would be eating dust!
He shook off five catties of sand from his body.
"Bah!" Bah! Bah! Damn it, I must get a few masks and a few pairs of glasses!”
"What did the Eldest Young Master say?" Xu Huang spat out a few times.”
"It's hard to explain to you now. I'll make a few for you when the time comes!"”
"I won't accept a reward without merit," said Xu Huang.”
Cao Ang was speechless.
These ancient people were good in every way, but they had too much etiquette. It was really unbearable!
At this moment, on the city gate of Hua Yin.
Duan Wei, whose power was second only to Li Jue and Guo Si, stood on the city wall.
A scout had already reported that a 1,000-man team was heading towards his territory.
Looking at the flag, it was a large Cao character!
Needless to say, these were Cao Cao's subordinates!
Duan Wei was secretly surprised,"Could it be that Cao Cao is attacking?"
Didn't he say that he was working on Zhang Xiu? How did they reach Huayin so quickly!
Seeing a bunch of grey donkeys arrive at the city, Duan Wei said,"
"Give me a thousand cavalrymen. I want to see how brave Cao Mengde is to attack my Huayin!”
The deputy immediately replied,"Here!"”
Not long after, the city gate opened and Duan Wei led his subordinates and rushed out of the city!
They waited until they were about five hundred meters away from Cao Ang's army!
Duan Wei rode on his horse, raised his spear, and came to the front of the formation. He shouted angrily,"Who are you? Why have you led your army to my Hua Yin?”
On the carriage beside Cao Ang, Jia Xu lifted the curtain and looked ahead. He said to Cao Ang,
"My lord, that person is Duan Zhongming!”
"Mr. Wen He, are you not planning to ride a warhorse?" Cao Ang nodded and asked. If this thing started fighting, the carriage wouldn't be able to move fast!”
Jia Xu's expression changed slightly,"Didn't Eldest Young Master say that there was no need to fight?”
"Hehe, it's better to prevent trouble before it happens! What if they start fighting?"
Jia Xu almost did not hesitate to get off the carriage and ride on the warhorse that Cao Ang had originally ridden.
Cao Ang ignored Jia Xu and urged his horse forward.
"Be careful, Young Master!" Xu Huang said.
"No worries!"
Although he said that, Cao Ang was still a little flustered in his heart!
In his previous life, it was common for him to fight with his boss.
However, on this battlefield, this was the first time he had faced a battle that could instantly decide life and death!
Lowly author, please give me a five-star rating (o^^o)
