[Three Kingdoms] Heroine Cultivation Manual

Changge County borders Yangdi, but has more water than Yangdi.Xishui crossed from the boundary of Yingchuan, just surrounded the outer city of Changge, forming a natural barrier.

"How's it going?"

"Return to your lord, the Fuyi people have already started to set up camp."

Liu Fan paused on his way to the tower, glanced at the moat involuntarily, calmed down a little, and asked, "Where's the messenger?"

"I have already gone. One went to Qiao County to find the governor of Kong, and the other went straight to Xuzhou to find General Yuan."

"Okay," the county magistrate of Changge, who was called "stupid" by Xu Shu and Qin Chu, nodded, clenched his wet palms, and said in a low voice, "Just hold on for a few more days..."

As long as he lasted for a few more days and the reinforcements from the south came over, he would not be considered a failure.

Changge City was built by the water, surrounded by many trees, Zhongxia's cicadas lived on it, singing one after another, but at this time, no one heard it.

Liu Fan glanced at the guarding soldiers holding the long halberds and looking panic-stricken, secretly exhaled, and tried his best to put on a mask of "preparedness", and squeezed out an unattractive smile:

"I have written letters with Kong Gongxu for a long time. If the secret was not leaked yesterday, Yingchuan could have been captured without anyone noticing—hmph, but it's not a problem, his people should already be on their way. Just rely on With so few people under Fu Chu, it is impossible to capture Changge so quickly."

As he said this, he seemed to believe it, his eyes gradually gathered together, and he repeated it as if talking to himself:

"It can't be so fast...Tayong, where's Taiyong?"

Liu Fan was pretending to be calm on one side, while Qin Chu's expression on the other side was also not very good-looking.

The houses and warehouses on the outskirts of the city have all been emptied, and all the supplies have been collected in Changge City, and the remaining batches that are difficult to handle have been burned.

The last time she encountered this method was when Xiliang was fighting against the Qiang people.In the hinterland of the Central Plains of Yuzhou, there has been no more wars since Lord Bocai was destroyed many years ago. A mediocre governor who was parachuted from an aristocratic family and can only "talk on paper", is he using this trick against her now?

"Strong walls and clear fields," she frowned, took two steps around the soldiers stationed in the camp, then looked up at the gate of Changge City, and said in a low voice, "I was wrong. Liu Fan is not a fool. Premeditated."

The food and grass brought from Xun's family was really limited, and she didn't have many people around her. If she really wanted to attack the city on the spot, she might not be able to eat here.Fortunately, Sun Ce has brought the news back to Yangdi, and given the distance of Ge Yangdi, reinforcements will arrive soon.

Xu Shu stared at her and lowered his head in thought, pursed his lips, walked up to her without blinking, bent down, and saluted her very solemnly: "General, it's my fault."

Qin Chu was still thinking about Changge's matter, but when he heard that he came to plead guilty, she was in a daze for a while, showing a little confusion, and she didn't realize what it was until Xun Yu coughed lightly beside her. Shaking his head at him, he said bluntly, "It's not your fault."

Xu Shu still said: "It was my preconceived idea that Liu Fan had nothing to do with Kong Ni, so I rushed forward to send the information, so that the army is now in a dilemma."

"Why is there a dilemma?" She sneered unceremoniously, interrupting Xu Shu's review directly, "Liu Fan stays behind closed doors, we will wait.

"It's only a day and a half from Yangzhai to Changge. How could the soldiers be starved to death? Even if Kong Ni came, so what, can I be afraid of an assassin who is talking about soldiers on paper?"

Neither Kong Ni on Liu Fan's head nor Yuan Shu behind Kong Ni is an opponent to be feared.

After Qin Chu finished speaking, he glanced at Xu Shu and saw that he showed a little "seeing the same" expression, and his attitude eased a lot. He put his right hand on the saber, turned around and grabbed a soldier casually, and ordered:

"Go, call General Cheng Xiang."

"General Cheng Xiang" is Ah Xiang.She is the most typical Jincheng Women's Army, with ruthless and accurate shots, never turning her head or looking back when charging, she is one of her most powerful generals.

Xun Yu followed her for a long time, and when he saw Qin Chu calling for someone, he knew that she wanted to fight, so he glanced at Xu Shu.

Xu Shu looked back in a daze, and said blankly, "...Didn't you say wait?"

"You can't just wait." She raised her eyebrows, and a jumping torch suddenly ignited in her eyes, which was surprisingly bright in the summer sun. "We are approaching the city without confrontation. It is the time when the county soldiers are timid. Now If we don't catch a few chickens and kill them, the monkeys in the city will be overthrown?"

Xu Shu is a ranger after all, and has never been in the army before. After chewing for a while, he realized that Qin Chu was planning to "kill chickens and monkeys" and put an end to Liu Fan's arrogance, so he quickly accepted her thoughts and said sincerely:

"The general is right, one can kill one."

Xun Yu: "..."

You hit it off.

He glanced at Qin Chu, and saw that she was still holding her head up and holding her sword, her face was full of confidence, and there was a smile in her eyes unconsciously, but she still dutifully brought back the topic and reminded Qin Chu: "My lord, remember to send scouts during this time." Look around."

"Oh, yes." Qin Chu withdrew his hand holding the hilt of his sword, and turned to look at Xu Shu again, "Xu Yuanzhi, didn't you say that Liu Fan is nothing to be afraid of? How can such an idiot know how to fortify walls and clear fields?"

Xu Shu felt that there seemed to be thorns in her words, but the girl's expression was quite frank, as if she was just asking casually.Xu Shu also said frankly: "Liu Fan is an idiot, maybe there are people in the city who can use him."

"Well, someone who can—who do you think it would be?"

Before she finished speaking, a shrike flew away from the banyan tree outside the city, and with a "chirp", it slid far into the city.

In midsummer, the trees in Changge City are lush and seemingly peaceful.The Shrike hovered in the air for a while, looked down to see the empty streets, and the doors of every house were closed, flapped its wings, and flew away in the other direction.

At the same time, the "useful man" in Changge City was arguing with the county magistrate sent by the government at the door of his house.

The Xin family in Longxi has a great business, and there are not a few people who have moved to the Central Plains. This family in Changge is one of the main branches of the Xin family.

Xin's house is located in the east of the city. Unlike the local aristocratic family in Yingchuan, it is quite far away from the government office, but it is more spacious. There are rockery and flowers in the courtyard. If you glance from the outside to the inside, you can see that the scenery is not inferior to the main house of the aristocratic family.

The brown-feathered and white-bellied Shrike fluttered its wings, slowly landed on the mulberry tree in the courtyard, and pecked at the feathers on its own wings.

The Taiyong that Liu Fan was talking about—Xin Chang, had a dark face, and stood behind the servant with his sleeves folded, quietly blocking the county official's wandering eyes.

His attitude was cold and his tone was stiff, and he refused bluntly: "I have already reminded the county magistrate to pay attention to the people in the city to prevent leaks. Now that the general has arrived at the city, do you want my Xin family to help you clean up the mess?"

Xin Taiyong spoke politely in the first half of his sentence, but after the word "leaking the wind", he couldn't control it, and he was almost gnashing his teeth to squeeze out a few words: "Aren't these the county magistrate Liu's own Question?"

After all, Xin Chang is still young, he is fifteen or sixteen years old, and he is the eldest son of the family. No matter how well-bred he is, he can't resist having a pig teammate by his side.

Ever since his father Xinpi was requisitioned by Yuan Shao to the north, there were only him, his eldest sister, and two side rooms in the backyard left in Changge Xin's house.

The banner of Yuan Shao's Kwantung Allied Forces was in full swing in the north, and Simpi naturally didn't have time to go home. He and his elder sister were well at home, and life should be considered comfortable.

It stands to reason that it should be so.Now that the imperial court Qin Chu and Yuan Shu are at war, no matter what happens, the north will not be hindered.

I can't stand Xu/zhou governor Yuan Shu is an idiot, Yuzhou governor Kong Ni is an idiot... the county magistrate of Changgecheng is a hopeless idiot.

Knowing that Qin Chu had just entered Yingchuan, he wanted to seek refuge with Kong Ni at this time, Xin Chang couldn't stop him, so he had to remind Liu Fan repeatedly to prevent leaking the secret—it's a pity that he was afraid of anything, Liu Fan was really an out-and-out fool, even this Can't do anything well!

Xin Chang saw that the little official didn't dare to speak with a frowning face, he couldn't get angry, his heart was anxious and depressed, he always felt like a piece of cartilage was stuck, he couldn't move up or down.He bypassed the servant, stepped forward almost aggressively, and looked at him coldly:

"My family doesn't care what happens to Changge, and I don't care what happens to Liu Fan. There are only a few people in my family. Away from Changge, there is Yingyin, and Runan. Please go back!"

He vented all his anger towards Liu Fan, and then he calmed down a little and straightened his expression.

The county magistrate was sprayed by him for a while, worried and anxious in his heart, knowing that in this huge city of Changge, only Erlang of the Xin family is really useful, and if he can't take him back, he will be punished by Liu Fan. She glanced at him, lowered her attitude, and said submissively: "But, but..."

"Nothing to—"

"A Chang!"

Suddenly there was a soft reprimand from behind the half-closed green door, and a pair of embroidered shoes stepped on the green grass in the front yard, and hurried forward.

Xin Chang was startled, turned his head immediately, and shouted, "Why did sister come here!"

Xin Xianying frowned, looked at him with reproach on his face, and said in a low voice: "As soon as Changge is broken, you and I can escape, and the two wives in the family still have pregnant women. Where do you let them go? The general is only in the northwest. Active, with unknown details, and her father is an official under the Yuan family, what if she is allowed to take my family as a hostage after entering the city? Ah Chang, have you thought about it?"

Xin Erlang was caught off guard by these three consecutive questions, looked at his sister in awe, fell silent for a moment, then bowed to her, and slowly backed away.

The lady of the Xin family, who was dressed in willow-yellow curly train and combed the hairstyle of a woman who had not left the court, finally breathed a sigh of relief. She bowed her hands to the county magistrate at the door as a salute, and said with a smile:

"My younger brother is young and ignorant, I made you laugh."

The county magistrate hurriedly said he didn't dare, but still looked at Xin Chang with a sad face: "Magistrate Liu sent a young man here, because the situation is critical, and he wants to ask Mr. Taiyong for help."

Xin Xianying nodded.

The 16-year-old "Mr. Taiyong"'s face became extremely strange in an instant. He glanced at his elder sister twice, and opened his mouth, as if he was about to speak, but was stopped by Xin Xianying's eyes that were so plain that they could be called indifferent.

She bowed her hands to the county magistrate in a very polite manner, and said "please wait a moment" gently, then turned around and pushed Xin Chang, and pulled him a few steps into the courtyard.

The servant pushed the door again to ensure that the master's conversation would not be leaked, and then followed the unlucky Liu Fan's lackey to look at each other expressionlessly.

The county magistrate was choked up by Xin Chang just now, and he finally waited for the savior, and then he was left at the door with a few words by the wife of Xin's family in a pleasant manner. The gate of the Xin family mansion turned around twice in place.

"Hey, Xin Taiyong has to ask his sister about everything, what should I do?" He thought with a bitter face, "Is there anyone else in Changge City to ask?"
