If he hadn't been in frequent contact with Zuo Aoran during this period, coupled with the deeds of Lianglangshan's three million to one hundred thousand, Liu Bei must have thought that Zuo Aoran was crazy. How could a person with normal thinking say such a crazy thing?
What are you saying? However, Liu Bei also knew that Zuo Aoran was definitely not a lunatic. Although Zuo Aoran acted strangely and had no rules, he never lied. Since Zuo Aoran said this, he would definitely do it.
!In Liu Bei’s impression, Zuo Aoran seems to have never broken his promise. Will there be any exceptions this time?
"Go back to the camp and ask the chief craftsman (Lao Bai) to come see me immediately." After saying this, Ma Yue turned and left. The mountain wind blew the cloak behind his shoulders, and it crackled in the air. The scarlet ground underneath was faintly revealed.
The lining is as beautiful as blood under the setting sun.
"The little man kowtows to Master Zuo." The craftsman opened the curtain and entered, kowtowing in front of Zuo Aoran.
Zuo Aoran said: "Old Bai, are you here?"
Lao Bai got up and asked respectfully: "What are your orders, Mr. Zuo?"
Zuo Aoran asked: "Are there any bamboo craftsmen among your craftsmen?"
Lao Bai scratched his head and replied: "I'm not sure about this, but when I was young, I also learned to be a bamboo craftsman for a few days! I know some bamboo craftsmanship. Does Mr. Zuo want to weave baskets to hold things? Or do he want to split some embroidery?
Abbreviation?"
Zuo Aoran said coldly: "No, I want to build a ladder with bamboo!"
Lao Bai said in astonishment: "Using bamboo to build a ladder!? But ladders have always been built with wood. I have never heard that they can be built with bamboo?"
Zuo Aoran said solemnly: "Then you have heard about it now!"
Tian Feng, who was sitting next to Zuo Aoran, twirled his beard three times and explained in a solemn voice: "Old Bai, there are three advantages of using bamboo to build a ladder. Bamboo is hollow, so it can be moved easily. First, bamboo is tough.
The second thing is that it is not easy to break. The bamboo ladder does not need to be riveted. It only needs to be interlocked with each other and then bundled with thin strips of bamboo strips, and then reinforced. It is extremely fast to build, the third thing."
Lao Bai suddenly said: "Master Zuo, Mr. Tian Feng, I seem to understand a little bit."
Zuo Aoran said solemnly: "Old Bai, I will give you five thousand soldiers to cut bamboos and build a ladder immediately. It must be completed before dawn tomorrow. If not, come and see me! As for the size, style and structure of the ladder, you can ask us at any time.
Ask Mr. Yuan Hao for advice and he will tell you what to do!"
"As you command, Master Zuo," Lao Bai responded.
"Go." Zuo Aoran waved his hand. Lao Bai and Tian Feng bowed back, left the tent and left.
"Bujun, go and call Lei Xu." Zuo Aoran said.
"Yes." Wen Chou also accepted the order and left.
In less than a moment, Wen Chou left and returned, followed by Lei Xu, who was sweating profusely. As soon as Lei Xu stepped into the camp, he knelt down on one knee and prostrated on the ground, saying loudly: "General Lei Xu, please see my lord.
"
"Get up." Zuo Aoran said.
Zuo Aoran's eyes were like lightning, piercing deeply into Lei Xu's eyes. Lei Xu's expression was calm and he met Zuo Aoran's gaze calmly.
"Lei Xu, how is I treating you?" Zuo Aoran asked.
Lei Xu said loudly: "My lord once captured Lei Xu. According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, I, Lei Xu, should be killed, but my lord did it to kill Lei Xu. It is actually my lord's kindness to reincarnate. Now I have been entrusted by my lord to lead the Taiping camp."
Lei Xushi was deeply frightened by the heavy responsibility, so he had no choice but to sacrifice his life in return."
"Hmm~" Zuo Aoran nodded and said in a deep voice, "Today, the life and death of all Taiping soldiers are at stake, do you dare to take orders?"
Lei Xu replied solemnly: "Why don't you dare?"
Zuo Aoran's eyes sharpened and he said loudly: "That's it, Lei Xu obeys the order!"
"The end will be here!" Lei Xu responded.
"Select 1,200 strong men from the Taiping camp, all wearing thick armor and holding sharp spears. Tomorrow, we will have a feast and seize the city!" Zuo Aoran said.
"Lei Xu's order!" Lei Xu proudly held his hands in front of his chest with a "pop!"
…
The next day, Chen time.
Peng Tuo, deputy commander of the Yellow Turban of Chen County and Yuzhou, went up to the tower early to inspect the enemy's situation. He stood on the tower and looked at the eastern sky. He saw that the vast land was surrounded by a thin morning light, and he could not see anything clearly.
"Deputy Marshal, do you want to rush to Marshal Bo for eight hundred miles to ask for support?" A yellow scarf leader looked solemn and couldn't help but persuade him.
"Eight hundred miles in an emergency? Requesting reinforcements?" Peng Tuo flashed a contemptuous smile on his face and said: "Only with the thousands of officers and soldiers under the city?" The Yellow Turban leader was silent. Indeed, except for Xinping, Ningping , outside the three counties of Wuping, the official army has no more achievements. Now it is impossible to capture even a small town in Chen County for a long time, but it has suffered heavy losses, which is really nothing to worry about.
Peng took off the mighty and shiny armor on his body (taken from the sacrificed Zuo Jiajun soldiers), and said confidently: "Although Chen County is not a dangerous place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, my commander We have the confidence to stop the enemy at the foot of Chen County and stop these arrogant officers and soldiers from moving forward. Until General Tiangong unifies the whole world, these officers and soldiers will not be able to take a step forward."
"The deputy commander is wise!" A group of leaders, big and small, all flattered him. Peng Tuo smiled broadly and felt very proud in his heart.
Thousands of officers and soldiers came to knock the pass to attack the city. Peng Tuo was not surprised but overjoyed. This was simply a feat that fell from the sky! He thought that with this merit, he would probably be appreciated by General Tiangong, thus replacing Bo Cai's words. His status, and even the possibility of becoming a divine envoy was unknown, and Peng Tuo couldn't help but feel more and more proud.
"Soldiers need to monitor carefully. If the officers and soldiers arrive, blow the trumpet to warn them. I, the commander, will personally lead the army to attack them!"
"Oh~"
"Oh~"
After Peng Tuo finished speaking, he just yawned and was about to turn around and go downstairs when he suddenly heard an inexplicable sound in his ears. His heart skipped a beat. He immediately raised his ears and listened carefully. Soon, Peng Tuo realized that the sound came from In the east, there seemed to be many people shouting at the same time.
Leader Taixiao also heard the sound and lost his voice: "What is the sound?"
"Oh~"
"Oh~"
Soon, this ghostly voice became louder, and all the yellow scarf soldiers standing on the enemy tower heard it clearly, and they all raised their heads and looked to the east... However, the vast mountains in the distance were shrouded in a thin layer of morning mist. , it is difficult to distinguish, there are only those rhythmic roars, gradually rising, making people upset.
"What are the officers and soldiers doing?" Peng Tuo's brows furrowed for a moment, and he thought to himself, "Could it be that they are trying to mislead the soldiers?"
While Peng Tuo was in shock, a soldier beside him suddenly screamed: "Commander, look, what the hell is that!?"
"Huh?" Peng Tuo's eyes narrowed and he looked in the direction of the soldier's finger.
At this time, the scorching sun was about to burst out, casting thousands of golden rays. The thin morning mist that lingered over the vast land was quickly dissipating. There was a wide official road leading directly to Chen County from the east. A strange ghostly wall suddenly appeared. The "Cliff Peak" on the ground is as tall as a knife, with a white surface. It can be more than ten feet wide. It almost blocks the entire official road. It can be four or five feet high. It is even higher than the city wall of Chen County. Give out a little.
