Three Kingdoms: Bandit Cao, let go of that woman!

Chapter 127 Potatoes solve the food crisis
After their tough suppression at the beginning, more and more people came forward to make troubles, which has made them miserable.

But every time I went to Cao Cao to ask for a solution, Cao Cao avoided it.

Anxiety is rapidly spreading throughout Cao Ying.

Guo Jia said: "Master, the matter has reached the point of urgency, I'm afraid I can't press it any longer."

"Feng Xiao, I have plans in my heart, you don't need to worry too much!" Cao Cao said in a deep voice.

Three days later, Cao Cao called the master of grain transportation to his camp.

Cao Cao, with an indifferent face, looked at the grain transport master kneeling in front of him with his hands behind his back.

The kind-faced Cao Cao smiled at the grain transporter who was kneeling on the ground.

"The timing is very dangerous now, I want to borrow one of your things to help us tide over the difficulties!"

Although the director of grain transportation didn't know what Cao Cao wanted to borrow, it was definitely not a good thing to see him like this.

"Prime Minister, I don't have anything, I'm afraid I can't help..."

After hearing this, Cao Cao waved his hands again and again, "You are the one who can help with this matter, and I will definitely reward you a lot after it is done."

How can the food transporter dare to expect a big reward, just hope that he can escape with his life, which is a thankful thing.

"I don't know what the prime minister wants to lend me?"

Cao Cao smiled and said, "I want to borrow your head to calm the turmoil in the army, but I can only borrow it and not return it. I hope you will forgive me."

The head of grain transportation turned pale with fright, shook his head hastily, and begged for mercy on his knees.

"Please forgive me, Prime Minister. I still have children who have not grown up, and my mother needs to be supported. If I die, then they will have no way out, Prime Minister."

"After you die, your old mother will be my mother. I will take care of you well, and I will treat your wife and children well."

"Besides, if you think about it, if your child is by your side, how can there be a future by my side, so you can rest assured!"

After Cao Cao finished speaking, he waved his hand, ignored him, and knelt down on the ground, still begging for mercy from the grain transporter.

At this time, Xu Chu, the muscular man behind Cao Cao, lost his thick arms.

He lifted up the sly-eyed man in front of him.

The head of grain transportation wanted to continue begging for mercy, but after Xu Chu took him out, he immediately beheaded him for public display.

"Brothers, it is because of this thief who corrupted the law and embezzled everyone's military rations, that's why you can't get enough to eat."

"Now that the thief has been beheaded by me, the prime minister ordered that the food she hid be taken out and fed to all brothers for three days and three nights!"

Xu Chu waved his hand and smiled heartily.

The soldiers all cheered and shouted Long live the prime minister!

The soldiers behind Xu Chu brought up countless wine and meat, and these soldiers rushed up cheering.

What a meal to wolf down.

Looking at this situation, Guo Jia felt mixed feelings in his heart.

He said: "Prime Minister, even if you pass this test temporarily, what will happen tomorrow?"

Cao Cao's brows were also tightly frowned. If he knew what he could do in the future, why would he make such a bad move.

"Maybe there is only one person who can solve the current predicament." Guo Jia said.

"Who?" Cao Cao asked anxiously.

"Cao Peng from Xuzhou..." Guo Jia felt very sad when he said the name.

Some unpleasant things happened before, causing Cao Peng to leave the front line and go to Xuzhou to guard.

Now that several months have passed, everyone still can only hope to solve the problem on him.

"Hey……"

"It's not the time to care about face. I'll let Dian Wei invite him tomorrow!"

Cao Cao shook his head with a wry smile. In the end, he really begged his nephew.

At this moment, the soldiers outside the camp hurriedly opened the door.

"Prime Minister, General Cao Peng led his troops here and brought a lot of food!"

The news was like a bolt from the blue.

"What?!" Cao Cao stood up in surprise.

Cao Cao, who was curled up on the bed with his feet, came out of the camp barefoot without even having time to put on his shoes after getting off the ground.

I saw that Cao Peng was wearing a golden armor, with a red rabbit horse under his crotch like a raging fire, and a strange weapon in his hand.

Behind Cao Peng is an arrogant red-faced man with red phoenix eyes and holding a Qinglong Yanyue knife with extraordinary temperament. I am Guan Yunchang.

"Anmin, you are finally back!"

Cao Cao came barefoot in front of Cao Peng, and firmly pressed Cao Peng's shoulder with his hands.

Seeing Cao Cao's appearance, Cao Peng couldn't help laughing in his heart.

"Uncle, look at you, you came out without even wearing your shoes."

"Haha, didn't I hear you coming back, did I forget it in a moment of excitement?"

Cao Cao joined hands with him and asked, "I heard that you brought food this time, how much is it? How long is it enough for us?"

Hearing Cao Cao's tone of urgency, Cao Peng guessed that he was right, Cao Cao was about to run out of food.

Xun Yu, who was far away in Xudu, gave Cao Cao spiritual support, but no actual food and grass came over.

Cao Peng laughed and said, "Uncle, the food I brought this time is enough for us to last for a whole month!"

After hearing Cao Peng's words, Cao Cao was shocked again. Some of him couldn't believe how much food would be enough to support the entire army for a month?
The place in Xuzhou has gone through wars, and it is not yet the autumn harvest season, so how can there be so much food?
Guo Jia also frowned and said, "Anmin, there is no joke in the army, so don't brag about it!"

Cao Peng laughed. He didn't understand why these people just didn't believe what he said.

"It seems that there is no evidence to say it, why don't you follow me to take a look!"

Cao Peng led Cao Cao and Guo Jia towards his food and grass troops.

Seeing his complacent look, Guo Jia muttered in his heart, what's going on?

Could it be that this kid really brought food?
When he saw Cao Peng's continuous supply of food transport teams, Cao Cao was surprised from ear to ear.

He couldn't wait to come to a carriage, and the cover was lifted in front of him.

However, what he thought he could see, the white grains did not appear, what he saw were yellow circles.

"Anmin, what is this?"

Seeing that Cao Cao's face changed from surprise to disappointment, and turned to some anger of being teased.

Cao Peng laughed and said, "Uncle, don't underestimate this kind of food. It's called potatoes. I planted them after I accidentally discovered them in Xuzhou. They can mature three times a year, and they are easy to grow and can be mass-produced. People eat them. I can't help being hungry."

Not to mention that Cao Cao didn't believe it, even Guo Jia obviously didn't believe it.

Guo Jia reached out to take a potato, opened his mouth and took a bite, feeling a bit dark and spit it out.

"This, is it really edible?"
