Chapter 422 If Nothing Works, Give Him a Shot
Luo Jiu calmly helped Chen Gong up and said with a smile: "Why are you panicking? Don't worry, we are guaranteed to win."
In fact, before Feng Qi stood up, Luo Jiu told her about the military order. In the original work, Guan Yu asked for a fight, and Yuan Shao looked down on him. At that time, Guan Yu issued a military order, saying that if he didn't win, he would chop off his head.
Feng Qi thought to herself that one head didn't seem very sincere. She thought about adding six heads, which sounded more exciting.
She was excited, but Chen Gong was scared to death. The Chang'an Army had just been established, and it was facing the crisis of annihilation so soon?
Chen Gong was trembling with fear. "The military order must be carried out. It is not a joke. General Feng, are you sure it will be foolproof?"
Luo Jiu nodded, "Sure, I asked."
Feng Qi's answer at the time was: "I think it's OK. If it doesn't work, I'll shoot him."
Luo Jiu reminded her: "Remember to install a silencer and use it as a hidden weapon."
She even has a silencer gun ready, so how could she possibly fail?
Feng Qi signed the military order, and Yuan Shao had nothing to say. Cao Cao said, "General Feng, please drink this cup of hot wine to cheer you up."
Feng Qi chuckled, "Do I need wine to kill a little Hua Xiong? Leave the wine here. I'll chop off Hua Xiong's head and come back to drink it."
Feng Qi left with an axe in his hand, and the other princes began to get restless.
Yuan Shao saw that everyone was eager to fight, so he said, "Let's go to the tower to watch the battle, and I will beat the drum to cheer them on."
The princes from all over the country came out one after another and stood on the city wall to watch the battle.
At this time, Hua Xiong had just easily killed four people. All the frustration from last night was gone, and he was feeling proud.
When he saw a female general suddenly appear in Chenliu City, he couldn't help but feel a dull pain on his face.
Hua Xiong shouted, "Who are you? Tell me your name."
Feng Qi said, "I am Feng Qi, a fierce general under Luo Jiu's command in the Chang'an Army."
When Hua Xiong heard that the voice was not the same as last night, he immediately felt relieved and sneered, "What Chang'an Army? I haven't heard of it. Is there no one left in the city? Send you a woman to fight."
Feng Qi laughed and raised his axe, "Remember, today it was a woman who took your life."
As he spoke, Feng Qi urged his horse forward and chopped down with an axe. Hua Xiong raised his sword to block, but he felt his arms were heavy, as if a mountain was pressing down on him.
Feng Qi said disdainfully: "I thought you were so awesome, but this is all?"
She swung the axe with her other hand, and with a "whoosh", Hua Xiong's head fell to the ground, and blood splattered on the spot.
The people watching the battle on the city wall were stunned. Even Yuan Shao stopped beating the drum. However, the soldiers stationed on the city wall were the first to react and their cheers were deafening.
Feng Qi carried Hua Xiong's head back to the main hall and threw it into the middle. All the princes stretched their heads forward to see.
Feng Qi smiled and said, "Is my wine still there?"
Cao Cao personally brought it over and said with a smile: "The wine is still warm, just right for drinking."
Yuan Shao was so embarrassed that he touched his chin and remained silent. Zhong Jialing and Cheng Yaoyao excitedly took Feng Qi back to his seat, massaging and rubbing his shoulders, and were very happy.
At noon, everyone returned to the camp to eat.
The Chang'an Army's garrison was exceptionally lively, and inviting the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang to dinner was a spur-of-the-moment decision, but since they had been invited, the meal couldn't be too simple.
The food distributed in the military camp is nothing more than cooked beef, roast chicken and the like. The taste is average, and six people can only get one plate of food for one meal.
Zhong Jialing couldn't help but complain, "Yuan Shu is such a stingy bastard. He only gave us a little bit of food and fodder, and he didn't give us the normal amount at all. He only gave us half a portion."
Luo Jiu smiled and said, "Be content. Look at Sun Jian. He has been deprived of money. He lost the battle and was injured. I saw that he didn't come out all morning. I guess he is very angry. But don't worry. We will deal with Yuan Shu sooner or later. Don't worry."
Cheng Yaoyao said, "Our place is small and we don't have enough tableware. I'll go to the city to buy some, otherwise it will be awkward later."
Luo Jiu thought for a moment and said, "Don't bother. Don't we have hot pot? Anyway, there is hot pot at this time, so just say we bought it in the city."
After discussing it, everyone started to set up the dining table in the yard, threw the burnt charcoal into the copper pot, put red oil base in the pot, and it became hot in a short while.
Just as everything was arranged, Chen Gong arrived with the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang.
The five people hurriedly greeted the guests. After exchanging a few pleasantries, they were about to take their seats when they heard someone loudly say, "General Luo, it's so lively here, why don't you invite Cao?"
Everyone turned around and saw Cao Mengde jumping down from the grain cart. He glanced into the yard with a smirk on his face and said, "It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. It seems I'm in for a treat."
Luo Jiu said indifferently: "Our Chang'an Army's garrison is simple, why did Brother Meng De condescend to come here?"
Cao Cao laughed loudly. "Look at her. I'm here to deliver something, but she's trying to make things difficult for me?"
Cao Cao asked his men to move things into the courtyard and whispered to Luo Jiu, "I am not responsible for the distribution of this garrison. Brother Yuan, you see things more clearly than I do. It was they who gave you this small, broken place. Don't wrongly accuse me."
Luo Jiu smiled and said, "It's just a joke. I'm honored that Brother Meng De is here. Let's all take our seats."
She winked at Cheng Yaoyao and said, "Add another seat."
Cheng Yaoyao bit her tongue secretly. This table had to accommodate ten people. It was really crowded. She gritted her teeth and quickly asked Fubao to move another table, doubling the size of the table.
Cao Cao pointed at the things and said, "This is some food and grass. I took out some from my army and gave it to you.
These are my personal gifts to Sister Feng Qi. When Cheng Gao saw you that day, I knew you were no ordinary person. Today, you are indeed famous all over the world. These gold, silver and silk are to congratulate you for winning the first prize in this battle."
Liu, Guan, and Zhang were sitting by the side, listening. Guan Yu had no emotional intelligence when it came to the ways of the world, so he didn't notice anything. Zhang Fei was even more so, staring at the boiling pot, thinking, "Why can't we eat yet? Why are you guys so talkative?"
Liu Bei was a little embarrassed because he came empty-handed. He just said, "Liu Bei has nothing to offer as a gift. I will definitely make it up to you one day."
Feng Qi said hurriedly: "No need to give gifts, I will be very happy if everyone accompanies me to eat and drink together."
Luo Jiu smiled and said, "The soup is already boiling, let's eat some meat."
"Okay, okay!" Zhang Fei was the first to respond. He picked up half a plate of meat with chopsticks and put it in the pot to cook.
Cao Cao opened the wine he brought. Fubao was the youngest and had the lowest seniority here, so she took the wine jug and poured a glass for everyone.
Cao Cao heard Fubao calling them "Mom" at Lujiazhuang, and thought they were probably children of his relatives. So he said to Luo Jiu, "You have few people here, and you don't even have anyone to support you, and you still want your own children to do it. Why don't I give you a few maids to take care of you?"
Luo Jiu smiled and shook his head, "I don't dare to use the person you gave me."
Liu Bei had just taken a bite of meat when he heard these words. He immediately choked on his throat and started coughing until his face turned red.
He had never heard anyone speak like this before, it was really... surprising.
Luo Jiu smiled and said, "Brother Xuande, isn't that right? Would you dare to use the people sent by Cao Mengde?"
