Guo Jia shook his head, feeling sorry for himself.

"Really?"

Xu Chu's eyes lit up.

"real."

Guo Jia nodded, then ignored him and walked forward.

Seeing Guo Jia leave, Xu Chu struggled a little in his eyes, raised his hand, and shouted, "Can I bring my mother here?"

Guo Jia suddenly looked back, smiled, and responded: "You are welcome anytime!"

From spring to autumn, and one year later, with the unremitting efforts of Liu Xu and the general public, Xuzhou's grain production has fully doubled.

What is this concept?

This means that the number of soldiers that Xuzhou can accommodate can also be doubled.

Xuzhou has a large population, and there is no shortage of soldiers. What is lacking is food and grass. With enough food and grass, all difficulties will be easily solved.

The people have a good harvest, and every family has surplus food. Naturally, Puzhou celebrates together, with lanterns and festoons, and a lively New Year's Eve.

At this time, Liu Xu's prestige also rose to the extreme.

For the future, Liu Xu is full of confidence. If the hybrid rice he developed succeeds, Xuzhou's grain production will probably double again.

Chapter 993 Escort

……

In the harvest year, Liu Xu's state shepherd's mansion was also completed. It was magnificent but not extravagant. As a state shepherd, his residence should not be too shabby.

Although it is not as good as Dong's Mansion, it has everything that one expects to find. There are rockery and flowing water, pavilions, pavilions, elegant flowers, and lush vegetation. It is indeed an excellent place to live in seclusion.

Today, Xuzhou's military strength has expanded to [-]. These [-] soldiers are not like those old and weak soldiers in the past. They are elites carefully selected and trained by Guo Jia, and their combat effectiveness has at least risen to a higher level.

Xu Chu was also successfully recruited by Guo Jia, and this tiger general will definitely show his fangs to the enemy in the not-too-distant future and create a new world.

The first thaw of spring and snow, the revival of all things, is a great season, and it is the day of love and romance. This is true for all things, and so is human beings!

Hundreds of vehicles weighed here, carrying goods worth 10,000+ taels, set off from Pengcheng in a mighty way, and headed for the capital Chang'an under the leadership of [-] soldiers.

This transaction is the largest in Xuzhou so far.

At the gate of Liu's mansion, Liu Xu, who was about to escort the carriage, was in trouble. Mi Zhu got a little white horse from somewhere. Seeing Ting's beauty, Liu Xu was about to come over, but now, he was a little disobedient.

Cai Yan got on the horse first, and Liu Xu held the reins of the horse, looked at the little white horse and said, "Run, boy, let's see if you run again, and see if I don't break your legs."

The little white horse blinked its big innocent eyes, Dudu shook his head, and Liu Xu got on the horse proudly.

His son is really kind and he was bullied by others, even a horse bullied him, Liu Xu was about to cry.

After leaving the city gate, Liu Xu was very happy in his chest, galloping in the vast nature with the beauty in his arms.

With the blue sky above my head, I feel at ease in my heart.

Hugging Cai Yan's flat belly, and grabbing the two lumps of tenderness under the bellyband from time to time, Liu Xu felt that he was not going to escort Chongzi, but to go sightseeing in the mountains and rivers by cuddling with the red and greenery.

This ancient nature is really punctual, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, and pleasant scenery.

The green wind was blowing on his face, bringing wisps of fragrance, Liu Xu was so drunk that he couldn't tell whether it was the fragrance of flowers or the body fragrance of his daughter's house.

The maid, Xiaohe, followed the large army and left the vast world to her young lady and uncle, which belonged to their world.

10,000+ taels of goods is not a small amount. If it can be exchanged for food of the same value, it will be enough to feed [-] soldiers for a year.

I have to say that Liu Xu was so bold that he left Xuzhou with 5000 troops. If Cao Cao stepped in at this time, he would have to cry bitterly.

However, Cao Cao may not have the time to confront Xuzhou right now, and he is probably still busy with production, and it will be difficult for him to spare extra energy in a short time.

Furthermore, who would have thought that the famous Fengzhang Layman would make such a mistake and bring 5000 troops to escort such a valuable cargo?

Only fools and idiots can do this.

Is Master Fengzhang stupid?

If he is a fool, how can Cao Cao be hated?

Obviously, even if someone knew that Xuzhou Fang was escorting a batch of goods into Chang'an, they would not think that those things were very valuable, and they would only think that Xuzhou Fang was coming to Beijing to give gifts.

Therefore, the forces along the way adopted a uniform policy of letting go of the Xuzhou side. They did not want to offend the Xuzhou forces. The [-] elite soldiers were no joke.

The Battle of Pengcheng has already spread throughout the land of China. Guo Fengxiao and Liu Xu killed Cao Cao's 12 elite soldiers with [-] old and weak soldiers and fled in embarrassment.

Therefore, along the way, Liu Xu received many invitations, and those powerful leaders offered to make friends one after another. They were extremely flattering, but Liu Xu kindly declined them all. The reason for the decline was... to go to Beijing to meet his father-in-law and give a gift go!

Of course, if you encounter bandits who don't know what to do, then I'm sorry. Under Liu Xu's thunderous methods, not even the corpse was left behind.

The journey was smooth, and the large army led by Mi Zhu finally arrived in Chang'an safely. He ordered the deputy general to lead [-] soldiers to station ten miles outside the city.

Liu Xu had already sent a message to Cai Yong, asking him to properly handle the goods he brought. With Cai Yong's connections, it would not be difficult to sell these things.

There are people in the court who are good at handling things, isn't that what they say?

Liu Xu accompanied Cai Yan all the way to visit the mountains and rivers, and arrived at Chang'an City before dark.

The city gate was still three miles away, but the majestic city wall and guards standing like javelins were already in sight.

The majestic ancient city wall is full of strong historical atmosphere, and the traces of swords, guns, swords and halberds are still vivid. Time flies, things are different, this ancient city has witnessed the change of countless dynasties, and contains too much blood and bitterness .

Liu Xu stared at the tower of Chang'an City for a while, and then said: "This is another place where wind and clouds meet. I, Liu Xu, will definitely rewrite history when I come here!"

Cai Yan said with a smile: "My husband is not the master of life wherever he goes. This time I come to Chang'an, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble... Let's go to the city, don't make daddy wait for a long time."

Liu Xu nodded, rode his horse and swung his whip, and ran towards the city gate.

The gate of the city was wide open, but there were guards on both sides checking, holding a portrait of someone who didn't know who it was for comparison, and checking everyone's luggage.

"It seems that there is something wrong, let's be careful, let's go." Liu Xu said to Cai Yan, got off the horse, and paced over.

"Stop and search."

When they got closer, a ferocious guard came over and stopped Liu Xu and the two of them.

"What are you searching for, General?"

Liu Xu smiled and stuffed a silver coin into his hand.

The guard showed an imperceptible smile and said, "No problem, let them pass!"

"Thank you General."

After speaking, Liu Xu took the little white horse and walked forward with Cai Yan.

"stop!"

Just a few steps away, there was a loud shout from behind.

The two of Liu Xu were upright and did not commit any crimes, so they stood still with peace of mind.

These inspecting soldiers, like the city defense, are all so greedy and bullying.

"Excuse me, General, what else is there..."

Liu Xu turned around with a smile, and stopped before finishing speaking.

……

Chapter 994 Tiger General

……

The one who stopped Liu Xu was not the soldier who took his money, but a majestic general in armor.

It's hard to say whether he's a general, but his upright face, thick eyebrows and bright eyes make people feel good.

The general-looking man stared at Liu Xu, and returned the money he took from the guard to Liu Xu, saying, "This is yours, take it back. The soldiers under my command don't accept bribes."

Liu Xu took the gold, cupped his hands and said, "I'm so reckless. If you dare to ask the general's name, I'm Liu Xu, whose name is Fengzhang. The general's demeanor is quite disappointing. Please tell me the general."

Hearing the word Fengzhang, an imperceptible strangeness flashed in the general's eyes, and he said lightly, "I don't dare to be called a general. I am Zhang Wenyuan, the cavalry captain under General Lu. I am just an insignificant official. Yes, but the name of layman benevolence has already been heard like thunder."

Zhang Wenyuan?

Zhang Liao!

This is a tiger general!

The fierce general was in the front, Liu Xu was unambiguous, cupped his hands, and said seriously: "Forgive me for saying a word, the lofty ambition will fly, and the ambition will eventually be rewarded in peace. Zhang Duwei is wronged."

Because Zhang Liao is an upright person, has a clear distinction between public and private, and is not good at flattering others, and Lu Bu spends all day in the gentle village, so although he has the ambition to bring peace to the world, his ability to bring order to order is useless as a hero, so he has never had the chance to be promoted.

Besides, under the command of the great god Lu Bu, he is like a green leaf that sets off the flowers, and is not valued at all.

But unexpectedly, this young man who had just met for the first time in front of him had a pair of wise eyes filled with admiration for him and regret for him.

It is enough to have a confidant in life, what more can I ask for someone who Liu Xu appreciates?

Zhang Liao laughed, showing his neat and white teeth: "I'm a rough man, I don't understand the meaning of a layman. As for the grievance, Zhang is incompetent. How can he be wronged? In private, Zhang will let it go, but in public, please accept it." an examination."

After speaking, he stretched out his hand, and a soldier brought a piece of rice paper.

Liu Xu looked sideways and was stunned. The person in the painting was only a silhouette. What could be seen from this?

"Lieutenant Zhang, what crime did this person commit that deserves such a close inspection by such a large team?"

"This person killed the third son of Dong's family not long ago. Master Dong was furious and sent thousands of soldiers to search..."

Fatty is dead?

Who did it?

This kind of knight, if you have the opportunity, you must get to know him.

"It's okay, just watch it! If you don't see enough, then go to your house together. We sit together, eat and reconcile, talk about life, talk about ideals... I will show you enough."

Zhang Liao is a smart man, of course he understood what Liu Xu meant: "Look again, I'll just stay at your house and live for nothing."
