Chapter 26 Borrowing food for the first time
Mr. Ai's mouth can now fit a fist.

He originally thought that Dingtao and Linqiu were directly connected, but he didn't expect that there were several cities in between.

Then going south is not seeking death?
If you can just skip several cities in the middle during the war, it's a waste. You can just take out the heart of the black tiger and hit the enemy's headquarters directly.

Xu Shu was very optimistic and directly arranged for everyone to have a full meal and prepare to borrow food from Chengyang City tomorrow. Mr. Ai immediately rolled his eyes:

"If you can fight all the way to Dingtao, I will take your surname. If not, how about you take my surname?"

"what?"

"What's wrong? Don't you dare to gamble?"

"No, your surname was Ai and Yuan before. If you change your surname to Xu, wouldn't you be a slave of the three surnames? And if you don't agree with the bet, isn't Brother Ai four years old this year?"

"That's his mother!" Mr. Ai's eyes were red with anger, "I traveled from a thousand years ago to help the Han Dynasty, how come I met a counselor like you? I really think you deceived a few bandits. Am I invincible? I..."

"Okay, okay, shut up." Xu Shu picked his ears, "Go to bed first."

"Brother, tell me what you want to do? I'm telling you that Zhang Liao is really going to kill you with his unparalleled power." Mr. Ai kept shaking Xu Shu's shoulders.

Xu Shu yawned and said helplessly:

"When I really can't handle it anymore, I'll ask my uncle to eat cat and mouse to help me. Go to sleep quickly."

Mr. Ai:......

Mr. Ai slept tossing and turning that night. Almost as soon as he closed his eyes, he saw Zhang Liao riding towards him with two halberds, his body shining with golden light like a god of war. Xu Shu, like a fool, clamored to challenge Zhang Liao, and then Zhang Liao opened his arms. Wushuang killed Xu Shu in seconds, looked at him viciously, stabbed him with a halberd, and he fell down like a maggot and turned into the dust of history.

He couldn't sleep anyway, so he sat up and sneaked out of the military tent in the middle of the night. Seeing that everyone in Xu Shu's army was fast asleep, and there were only less than ten people on duty at night, he immediately thought of escaping.

But he took a few steps on tiptoe, and heard the cold wind around him. The cold wind was mixed with the resentful howling of many wild wolves. Looking far ahead, he realized that his army was actually camping in a graveyard.

There are graves all over the place, which can block the claws of wild wolves, but the refugees who fled had nothing to eat along the way. Many of them dug up the graves frantically in search of food. The bones were scattered everywhere, attracting a large number of wolves.

These beasts are very alert. Of course, they dare not attack an army in large numbers, but as long as Mr. Ai is alone, these wolves will pounce on him with green eyes and enjoy a feast of flesh and blood.

Mr. Ai shuddered and kept scolding Xu Shu in his heart for not being a human being.

Hey.

Why am I so anxious? Why do I have to trick Xu Shu into this end? I regret it. If God gives me another chance, I will definitely choose...

He was still thinking wildly when he suddenly felt a hand pressing on his shoulder. He shivered. When he looked up, he saw Xu Shu looking at him with a smile.

Xu Shu had long hair disheveled and an animal skin draped over his shoulders. He was yawning and looking at the wild wolves.

Mr. Ai breathed a sigh of relief and cursed:

"What are you doing up so late at night?"

"can not fall asleep."

"Scared?"

"A bit." Xu Shu yawned and said leisurely, "Mr. Ai, does he know who is the most famous person buried in Chengyang?"

"how could I know?"

"It's Tang Yao."

"I know Chen Yao, but who is Tang Yao?"

"Emperor Yao! Emperor Yao sent Dayi to shoot the sun and Gun to control the floods. He also formulated a calendar, promoted farming, and organized hundreds of officials. Later, he abdicated to Emperor Shun. Don't you know this?" "Damn, what are you talking about! Tang Yao made me stunned for a moment after hearing this." Mr. Ai cursed, and then showed a greedy look, "Where is it buried? Let's go look for it and see if we can dig up anything? They should all be first-class cultural relics, right? "

Xu Shu: ...

"Are future generations as shameless as you?" He tightened his clothes helplessly and looked at the surrounding tombs. "The hungry people were buried here. Emperor Yao knew it under the spring. He didn't know what the situation was like in this troubled world. "

Mr. Ai hummed and smiled, showing off:
"We later generations have figured it out. Yao was actually exiled here by Shun. Haha, you didn't expect it. So what's the use of benevolence? This is the end of a generation of benevolent kings. If you want the world, you must kill decisively. If someone like you appears in the novels of our future generations, people will definitely call her a virgin."

Xu Shu raised his eyebrows slightly, never expecting that the story he had heard since he was a child would end like this a thousand years later.

But he soon felt relieved and breathed a leisurely sigh of relief. Seeing that Xu Shu was stunned for only a moment, Mr. Ai couldn't help but feel frustrated and said with some excitement:
"Why, aren't you curious? Aren't you going to collapse? Aren't you going to destroy your three views? Haha, in fact, most people in our time thought the same as you do now. Only people like me who really understand history know a few truths."

Xu Shu smiled softly:
"I'm curious, but... so what? Can we get out of trouble now?"

"Uh……"

“And you don’t even know much about the history of our era, let alone things that happened further back.

No matter how Emperor Yao ended up, at least you are still praising his benevolent name thousands of years later. This shows that even in your era, everyone still yearns for a peaceful and prosperous era with a benevolent and righteous king. This makes me relieved. "

Mr. Ai never expected that Xu Shu would infer future events from his few words, and his face changed drastically. He still wanted to speak harshly, but Xu Shu had already turned away.

"Do what?"

"The time has come."

"You, what are you going to do?"

"Borrowing food..." Xu Shu spread his hands, as if he was saying something normal, "Can't you get up early to borrow food? If you go late to ask for food, you can only get leftovers."

Mr. Ai:? ? ?

The sky was still dark, Xu Shujun had already finished his meal, and then he slowly approached Chengyang City under the leadership of Xu Shu.

Mr. Ai thought they were going to sneak into the city at dawn, but he didn't expect them to stop a hundred steps away from the city. The shadow of the torch had already attracted the attention of a group of people in the city. There was a dense sound of gongs and drums, and then many torches were lit up. It was obvious that the people at the top of the city were ready for defense.

"Then what?" Mr. Ai stared, "If I'm right, you shouldn't have brought any siege guys with you, are you ready to chew it with your teeth?"

"I didn't bring it with me." Xu Shu said nonchalantly, waving his hand gently, "Borrow me some food!"

Following Xu Shu's order, Xu He led his sergeants forward in a row. The sergeants at the head of Chengyang City immediately became nervous. Mr. Ai even saw many people preparing to draw their bows and fire arrows.

But as Xu He and others gradually approached, the people on the top of the city froze in place.

I saw that these sergeants did not carry any weapons. Instead, they each held gongs and flags. As Xu He sounded the gong, the others waved the big flags together and shouted in unison:
"The governor under the command of Prime Minister Dong Ping was ordered to attack Ding Tao. He passed by the treasure land and asked to borrow some military rations to defeat Lu Bu in the future. Prime Minister Dong Ping should return the favor!"

"We don't want the city, we just want rice and grain. We also ask the elders in the city to borrow some military grain. Duke Cao will definitely pay it back in the future."

"Xu Yuanzhi, the governor under the command of Prime Minister Dongping, does not kill the people. He only asks for military rations. I also ask you to lend me rations!"

Mr. Ai is stupid.

Holy shit, is this really borrowing food?

I'm beating gongs and drums to borrow food this early in the morning. I'm afraid you've lost your mind if someone lends it to you.

"You, you, you!" Mr. Ai stamped his feet, "Why the hell did you surround the city and then borrow food! You didn't bring any siege equipment. Even if they can't defeat you, they will send people from the south city to find reinforcements as soon as the city gate is closed. ,what would you do?
Can you beat Zhang Liao in the wild? "

Xu Shu smiled and said:
"How will you know if you don't try? Go ahead and say more nice things. I heard that there is a famous scholar in the city, Wang Kai. He is a well-known good man from all over the country. Ask him to borrow it!"
