Return to the Three Kingdoms with the Empire System

Chapter 179 The smoke of gunpowder will rise
After receiving the order that the army was going to attack the city at dawn the next day, Zhang Xun naturally went to check the progress of the army's construction of siege equipment.Yuan Shu's order did not say that they would gather together to attack the city, so it must be a siege from all sides. If Zhang Xun can be the first to break through Yang Di, then Yuan Shugao can take a look at him later.

Zhang Xun wanted to check the situation, so Niu Wa naturally wanted to follow.Only this time, even though Li Du was by his side, Li Du's attitude towards Niu Wa was much better than before.Zhang Xun was also very relieved to see the two people getting along harmoniously.

It's just that Niu Wa was a little absent-minded at this time, thinking about how to deliver the news.But with Zhang Xun and Li Du together, how could there be a chance to pass the news back?

Niu Wa was depressed because she was thinking about how to deliver the news, but looking in Li Du's eyes, she thought Niu Wa was still depressed because of the previous incident. "Brother, I was wrong just now. Don't be so sad anymore. I will take you to drink later." Li Du really regarded Niu Wa as a brother at this time. The friendship between men is sometimes so simple, let alone two people. There is no deep hatred between people.

Zhang Xun immediately grinned when he heard that Li Du could take the initiative to show his kindness to Niu Wa, but he quickly covered it up and turned back to Li Du and said: "Li Du, the army has regulations against drinking alcohol, but you dare to violate the military order?" , what should I do?"

After Li Du heard Zhang Xun's words, he was taken aback for a moment. When he was talking to Niu Wa, he thought about how to repair the relationship with Niu Wa and let Niu Wa vent his grievances. Not to mention talking about drinking in front of Zhang Xun. "That... general..." Li Du looked at Zhang Xun, hesitating and hawing for a long time, unable to speak.

Looking at Li Du like this, Zhang Xun finally couldn't help laughing, and the haze of the past few days was swept away. "Forget it, needless to say, the general knows what you mean. The general is also happy that you two can no longer target each other. Niu, you go to the kitchen and tell them to cook a few more dishes for lunch and send them to my tent."

Niu Wa had been thinking about things before, so his complexion was not very good. At this time, Niu Wa heard Zhang Xun tell him to go to the kitchen, and immediately went in the direction of the kitchen without saying a word.Looking at the situation, Zhang Xun was also a little puzzled. Niu Wa didn't look like he was wronged, but seemed to have something on his mind.

"Yes, follow up and have a look." Seeing that something was wrong with Niu Wa, Zhang Xun asked Li Du to follow behind Niu Wa.At this time, Zhang Xun had a feeling that Niu Wa was the spy, and now he was thinking about how to pass on the news he just got.

When Niu Wa walked to the front of the kitchen, she was stunned.Because he suddenly discovered that he forgot one very important thing: Niu Wa forgot what Zhang Xun called him to the kitchen for.Niu Wa stood in front of the kitchen and thought for a while, thinking that there must be nothing wrong with cooking a few dishes.Then, Niu Wa ran into the kitchen and told the Huotou army inside: "The general has an order, let me cook a few dishes, and ask the big brothers to make room for the younger brother."

The Huotoujun in the kitchen looked at Niu Wa with doubts on their faces.Judging by Niu Wa's attire, he looked like Zhang Xun's personal soldiers, but why would Zhang Xun's personal soldiers come to cook in person?Although he was puzzled, he still gave up a place, which was huge anyway.

After Niuwa had a place, he asked these fire-headed soldiers to prepare some ingredients for him. Niuwa's family was only him and an old mother who suffered from eye diseases. Niuwa was at home on weekdays, and Niuwa was also cooking, so he picked up the pot at this time. Cow shoveling is not new.

"General, why did Niu Wa pick up the spatula by himself?" Not far from the kitchen, Li Du saw that Niu Wa did it by himself, and asked Zhang Xun in amazement.

Li Du asked Zhang Xun, how did Zhang Xun know why Niu Wa would do it by himself?At this time, Niuwa was also extremely puzzled. He didn't know where Zhang Xun got the news, but he knew that he could cook.

After Zhang Xun watched Niu Wa fry a talent very skillfully, he went to the kitchen, looked at Niu Wa and asked, "Niu Wa, why did you get started by yourself?"

When the Huotou army saw Zhang Xun coming over, and asked why Niuwa would do it by himself, all the people who were cheering suddenly knelt down.When the cow boy in front of the stove saw Zhang Xun coming, he quickly said to Zhang Xun: "General, wait a little longer, this villain will be fried soon."

Not long after, Niu Wa put the vegetables in the pot into bowls, handed them to Zhang Xun, and said, "General, try the villain's craftsmanship."

"Didn't the general ask you to ask them to fry a few dishes? Why did you start by yourself?" Zhang Xun asked while taking a pair of chopsticks aside.

"Didn't the general ask the villain to come to the kitchen to make some dishes?" Niu Wa looked at Zhang Xun with doubts on his face.

"The general is asking you to let them do it." As he said, Zhang Xun took a chopstick and put it in his mouth. After tasting it carefully, he thought for a while and said, "Forget it, you should do it for this meal." Damn it, the dishes you make are actually better than the dishes made by those who have been in the Huotou army for several years." Muttering, Zhang Xun and Li Du went to inspect the barracks again.

After Zhang Xun left, a Huotou Army soldier walked up to Niu Wa and said, "Sir, the little one is here to help you." When the rest of the Huotou Army saw someone rushing ahead, they all immediately became extremely excited. Annoyed, thinking why I never thought of going to beat this lord or something.

And the fire-headed army who claimed to be the striker was actually Hai Ye whom Niu Wa wanted to find.It turned out that Lord Hai turned out to be active in the barracks dressed as a Huotou army.Apart from some of the Firehead Army being on standby, there are also combat troops who have been punished, so no one suspects Lord Hai.

Niu Wa also didn't know that Hai Ye was here. She just thought that as Zhang Xun's personal soldier, she would come to the kitchen to cook. This news could always attract Hai Ye here, but she didn't expect that Hai Ye was here.

With the sound of cooking, Niu Wa whispered to Lord Hai: "Yuan Shu has sent a military order to attack the city at dawn tomorrow."

After Hai Ye heard the news, he was busy patting his hands. The past few days have been calm, but he didn't expect this day to come so soon. "Now there are only two of us left here, you go back to Yangdi tonight and report to your lord."

"I can't leave. Zhang Xun sent people to keep an eye on me. Okay, bring me the bowl." With that, Niu Wa cooked another dish.

"Yes, sir, I'll give you a bowl. What's next?" Hai Ye was also stunned. He didn't expect that Niu Wa would be suspected by Zhang Xun when he was next to Zhang Xun, but he still quickly handed over a bowl.

Niu Wa took the bowl, filled the pot with fried vegetables, and said: "Bring over the processed rabbit." After taking the rabbit and putting the rabbit into the pot to blanch, Niu Wa continued: " Lord Hai, please take care of everything, my old lady is still in Yangdi City, take care of my old lady for me."

Hai Ye was silent for a while after hearing Niu Wa's words, and said: "He Liu came back yesterday and brought me some croton powder. Before I leave, I will give the croton powder to you. Pour that croton powder into their breakfast tomorrow morning."

"I understand, Mr. Hai, please do everything." The guards in Yangzhai City were weak and could only rely on these means to get even a glimmer of hope.But Niu Wa had no choice, and others had no choice. Yuan Shu issued an order to massacre the city. If he didn't resist, he would die. If he resisted, at least there would be a hope of survival.

When Niu Wa finished the meals and brought them back to Zhang Xun's camp, Zhang Xun and the others had just returned to the camp.

"If we had rushed the car back then, we would have knocked open the gate of Yangzhai City long ago, so there is no need to wait until now." Before entering the tent, Niuwa heard Zhang Xun's voice.Seeing Niu Wa go in, Zhang Xun quickly said: "Oh, it smells so good, Niu Wa really has a way."

"After tasting your food, the general said it was delicious. I believe what the general said just now after I heard it." Li Du looked at Niu Wa, and hurriedly served Niu Wa the food, not forgetting to praise him. .

It's just that at this moment, Niuwa was thinking about his old mother in Yangdi City, how could he have the heart to say anything to Zhang Xun and Li Du, but he just said a few perfunctory words.
