Three Kingdoms: The Guan Family's Rebellious Son, Long Blessing Jing Xiang

Chapter 119 How could he, an old man, have no backup?

The sky in Jingbei is covered with dark clouds, but the sky in Jingnan is clear.

There is still a hundred miles away from Jiaozhi County, and this is still the territory of Changsha County.

In a simple village, what is visible to the naked eye is the black whetstone in front of every farmhouse door.

In this village, it seems that every household is proficient in the skill of "sharpening knives".

A plaque with the words "Luohanzhuang" hangs high at the entrance of the village.

And in one of the farmhouses, Lu Xun was lying on the bed at the moment.

The bright sunlight shone in, he had a severe high fever, his forehead was covered with a wet handkerchief, his lips were chapped, and he was dreaming, "I want to climb up step by step, step by step...I want to..."

His head was so hot that he was already somewhat unconscious.

A few days ago, after confirming the delivery time and location of the van, wooden cow and horse, and the crossbow.

Lu Xun and Sun Ru rushed from Jiangling to Changsha in Jingnan non-stop.

It happened to be a rainy day, but I only brought one bamboo hat.

So, Lu Xun gave it to Sun Ru, but Lu Xun was drenched all over, and burned again for several days.

Sun Ru sat on the side of the bed and comforted him, "Bo Yan, it's okay, it's okay!"

Lu Xun seemed to be awakened by this soft soothing voice, he opened his eyes with difficulty, "The ordnance has arrived... Has it arrived?"

Sun Ru tried to show a relaxed smile.

"Here we are, people from the Lu family have also arrived, and they have already sent people to inspect it. The ordnance is hidden in the 'Guanshan', and the remaining parts will be delivered in just two days."

The so-called Guanshan is the mountain where troops were camped when "Guan Gong fought in Changsha", just like the "Laodao River", named after Guan Gong.

Let's talk about it in detail.

In the 13th year of Jian'an, after Cao Cao's defeat in Chibi, Liu Bei and Sun Quan took the opportunity to expand their territory to the Jingzhou area.

The four prefectures of Lingling, Wuling, Guiyang, and Changsha south of the Yangtze River saw that the situation was not good and planned to surrender to Cao Cao.

Therefore, Liu Bei ordered Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun to lead 3000 troops each to conquer the three counties of Wuling, Lingling and Guiyang;

Guan Gong led [-] school swordsmen to kill Changsha County.

——"Guan Gong's battle in Changsha" also kicked off.

As for the battle of Guan Gong in Changsha, it is just like the song "The blue-faced Dou Erdun steals the horse, and the red-faced Guan Gong fights in Changsha" in the dramas of later generations. Because of the arrival of Guan Gong, many places here are famous for this battle. the whole world.

Just like the "Lao Dao He" picked up by Zhou Cang because Guan Gong's Qinglong Yanyue Knife fell into the water...

Then there is the "Malan Mountain" named after Guan Gong built a horse pen.

"Guanshan" where Guan Gong stationed his soldiers and horses.

As for "Luohanzhuang", it was after the Qinglong Yanyue Dao was salvaged from the "Laodao River".

The knife was hit by a river stone and a small hole was missing, so the local blacksmith Luo used the rainwater as the water to sharpen the knife and sharpened it for three days.

From then on, Blacksmith Luo became more famous, and the village where he lived was called "Luohan Village"!
Many guests come and go here to "sharpen their knives"!
Now, Lu Xun and Sun Ru live in Luohan Village, and the location of the arms trade is Guanshan.

As early as three days ago, the Lu family sent a large number of merchant ships. In addition to transporting a sufficient amount of gold, there were also manpower...

It is not an easy task to transport so many ordnance back to Soochow.

at this time.

Lu Xun's son Lu Yan walked in.

This is Lu Xun's eldest son, but not Sun Ru, but Lu Xun's deceased wife, who is now 15 years old.

Seeing the eldest son, Lu Xun weakly stretched out his hand to caress the child's cheek.

"My son is here? Did you bring all the gold, silver and music?"

"The gold and silver converted from 18 dendrobium grains have been counted several times, and they are exact." Lu Yan replied. "As for the trilogy, I don't dare to bring too much, I only bring five hundred, which is enough to carry the ordnance!"

Historically, Lu Xun's eldest son, Lu Yan, is recorded as having died young.

Died before turning 20!
Because of this, the title of the Lu family was inherited by his younger brother Lu Kang.

Although Lu Yan is not very old now, he is quite energetic. At such a young age, he can already handle many things in the clan, including some commerce and business.

Seeing his father in such pain, Lu Yan was a little worried, but reported as usual.

"Shi Huolong and You Tanzhi live not far away in 'Malan Mountain'. According to what my father said, my son has already negotiated with them. At noon the next day, our Lu family will first count the goods and count the goods. After that, the money will be delivered immediately! The next step is to transport the ordnance by water."

"Okay!" Hearing this, Lu Xun lay down flat as if relieved.

Sun Ru gently took Lu Yan's hand, and said softly: "Yan'er, you are your father's eldest son, and now that your father looks like this, I... really can't leave, and the ordnance business will be more troublesome! "

Sun Ru called Lu Yan "Yan'er", but she did not call herself "mother", but "I"!
Just like in every family, the relationship between the stepmother and the eldest son often seems close, but there is actually a mountain between them.

After hearing Sun Ru's words, Lu Xun echoed, "Your mother is right, people are unpredictable, so be careful, ahem... If anything happens, please tell me immediately!"

"Father, don't worry, the child knows." Lu Yan withdrew his hand from Sun Ru's, saluted Lu Xun respectfully, and after saluting Sun Ru, he slowly exited the room.

And when he was about to go out, he saw a bucket of water in the courtyard, he walked quickly to the bucket, inadvertently stretched his hand in, and quickly cleaned it.

In his eyes, there is a little more brilliance that is not easy to be noticed.

And this hand...

It was only because she was pulled over by her stepmother Sun Ru.

...

...

Changsha County, Guanshan.

Those who are proficient in arithmetic are inspecting the goods.

——"Fifty wooden cows and horses!"

——"Liannu 560 one!"

——"Eighty vans!"

Following the sound of each sentence, the final number was announced.

"That's right, they all match up, you two are open and bright!"

The younger brother Shi Bian, the governor of the seven counties of Jiaozhou, looked at the ordnance hidden in the pass mountain, and smiled meaningfully.

Both Shi Huolong and You Tanzhi are here...

Shi Huolong smiled and said: "Today's is here, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow there will be two more batches of ordnance. Before noon the day after tomorrow, you will check again to confirm the final number, and then you can trade!"

When Shi Huolong said this, You Tanzhi reminded: "It's just that you don't know the money and food that you should prepare? It's ready."

"Don't worry..." Shi smiled and patted the shoulders of the two, "This is just a start, and there will be more opportunities for cooperation in the future. I'm not afraid to tell you that we are from Jiaozhou, and we have plenty of money there!"

Hey…

After saying this, Shi Huolong and You Tanzhi looked at each other.

Immediately they all spoke in unison.

"light and spacious!"

After that, the three of them agreed to come back to count the number of ordnance before noon the next day.

If there is no difference, immediately...pay with one hand and deliver with one hand.

Instead, send away the queen.

Shi Huolong and You Tanzhi stood under the bright moonlight.

Shi Huolong said with emotion: "Hong Qigong is an old man, this time... he is playing around with all these people."

"That's right..." You Tanzhi took out a piece of bread from his bosom, took a bite, and handed it to Shi Huolong, "Take a bite?"

"What kind of bread are you eating..." Shi Huolong smiled and waved his hands, "This ticket is done, in the future... Hong Qigong and his old man will let us eat meat! At that time, the life of our beggar gang will be worse than that of those officials. Master is ten times more beautiful!"

Yes…

As Shi Huolong said.

Once upon a time, they were refugees in exile in Jiangling City, they lived in the open, they were suffering from hunger and cold, no one... cared about their lives, no one was willing to let them have a full meal.

But now...

The days are different!

Not to mention the full meal, the noodles are not uncommon to eat... Beggars, you have to eat meat!
Follow Hong Qigong and his old man, there is meat to eat!
And as Shi Huolong's voice fell, You Tanzhi stuffed the bread back into his bosom.

Suddenly I feel... this bread is not fragrant.

He added a question with great interest, "You said...will things go well tomorrow?"

Well…

Shi Huolong directly raised his hand, and slapped his forehead heavily, "Hong Qigong, the old man, deployed it himself, how could there be a mistake?"

"But..." You Tanzhi patted his head this time, "But if things get serious, what should we do?"

"Hahaha..." Shi Huolong laughed, "Hong Qigong is an old man who knows the sky? How could he have no backup?"

Speaking of this, the eyes of the two met.

Under the moonlight, it adds a touch of youth.

...

...

In Jiangling City, the torture chamber of the thief Cao Cao.

Because of the small fortune made by Guan Lin, a batch of brand new instruments of torture were properly purchased here.

At this moment, in the prison cell, the torch was flickering, and there were groans one after another. Guan Lin strode in, followed by his third sister, Guan Yinping, who was worried about him, and... Zhang Xingcai, who didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement.

Ma Binghou was in front of the door, and when he saw Guan Lin arriving, he immediately opened the cell door.

Guan Lin and his party entered the prison with three people. The middle-aged man in front of him was the shopkeeper of the "Changxin Restaurant".

It's just that, different from the well-groomed clothes in the daytime, at this moment, his hair is fluffy and his face is haggard.

"I'm going to give you another chance, should I recruit or not?"

"I don't know what the official is talking about? How to recruit?" The hoarse tone made it easy for people to feel sympathy and pity.

really…

Guan Yinping reminded Guan Lin in a low voice, "Could it be that he caught the wrong one? I remember... the shopkeeper doesn't know a single word, but the one who sorts out the account books is his wife. He just cooks authentic northern dishes. "

Just now, Guan Yinping really went to the barracks to ask...

There are quite a few northerners in the Guan family army, and many who know this shopkeeper, they all go for the northern dishes they cook.

Many soldiers of the Guan family army were still amazed, saying that the smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. The shopkeeper doesn't know a word, but he can open such a restaurant, all thanks to his craftsmanship!

"Ahem..." Guan Lin coughed lightly, looked back at Guan Yinping, and reminded, "Sister, I'm on official business!"

This time, Guan Yinping closed his mouth, and stood beside Guan Lin vigilantly, looking around.

"Don't recruit, right?" Just now, Guan Lin's face was still amiable, but suddenly, Guan Lin's face became serious, "It's easy to say, come here, take it to the court, and I will interrogate myself!"

—— "Let me also show you, this Cao is really good!"

...

...

Jiangling City, the residence of the Mi family.

Mi Fang walked into the house with his tired body, his son Mi Yang was still writing at the desk, no... to be precise, he was calculating.

On his left is a copy of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", and on the right is the table listed according to the "decay" theory of Chapter 3 in "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic"...Trying to use this idea of ​​"distribution" to draw Answer.

Mi Yang murmured from time to time: "There are twelve heads on the top, and 34 feet on the bottom... How to solve it by using an evenly divided list?"

——Chicken and Rabbit in the Same Cage!
Or the problem of chickens and rabbits in the same cage.

This problem has troubled Mi Yang for three whole days.

Since that day, [-] hu grains were delivered to Guan Lin, and the two talked about the "chicken and rabbit in the same cage" issue.

For the past three days, Mi Yang has been thinking about this issue.

What flashed through his mind from time to time were the words Guan Lin mentioned.

——"There are only two solutions, one is the hypothetical method, and the other is the golden rooster's independent method. In fact, there are a total of thirteen solutions to the problem of chickens and rabbits in the same cage!"

Thirteen solutions?
The more Mi Yang thought about it, the more profound he felt, and the more he felt that Guan Lin was unfathomable.

He racked his brains, but just... came up with another "table method"...

It can be regarded as the continuation of the "decay" theory of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic".

But...how about ten more?

In later generations, people will often become "crazy" at the end of mathematics research, and will fall into the huge "mathematical universe", deeply trapped in it, unable to extricate themselves, and they will be entangled in any small discovery.

Of course, that was later generations. In the Han Dynasty... there was only mathematics under the theory of "Nine Chapters of Mathematical Sciences", and it was extremely difficult to transcend "Nine Chapters of Mathematical Sciences".

It is no exaggeration to say that Mi Yang was framed in that circle before.

However, Guan Lin... completely opened a window for Mi Yang, allowing him to transcend this circle and reach a wider universe.

This made him deeply trapped, unable to extricate himself.

As if he had noticed his father's return, Mi Yang was also a little tired. He closed the bamboo slips sensiblely and greeted his father, "Why did father come back so late today? Is it because he is busy with work?"

"Alas..." Mi Fang waved her hands, and sighed helplessly.

"Father, who is this?" Mi Yang hurriedly asked.

Mi Fang's eyes caught sight of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" on the table, and then she looked at her son, feeling a little relieved, "My son is obsessed with mathematics, but it makes my father feel relieved... just ... Yun Chang's son is not so worry-free."

Yun Chang's son, are you worried?
When these two words came out, Mi Yang blinked his eyes and immediately understood, "Father is talking about the fourth son, right?"

"Who else but him?"

Mi Fang sat slumped on the bamboo mat, took off her socks, her fat body was like a round ball, and she looked extremely unsightly.

"Can the father tell the child?"

Mi Yang became curious.

These days, he's only interested in two things.

One is chickens and rabbits in the same cage;

The other one is the fourth son who opened a new window for him in the field of mathematics through the problem of chicken and rabbit in the same cage-Guan Lin and Guan Yunqi!

"Ah..." Mi Fang sighed a long time, "Tell me about Guan Yunqi, who arrested more than 100 people in a good afternoon. It is conclusively said that these people are Wei spies, but there is no evidence, and there is no one who approved the arrest for his father. Handwriting, such nonsense, this is the first time in Jiangling City..."

"The whole afternoon, the whole Jiangling City was in a state of panic, and people were in a state of panic. There were not a hundred people who came to sue him for my father, but there were eighty of them. But...how about the relationship between my father and Yun Chang?" Can you not suppress it? But suppress it, oh...don't say it, don't say it..."

At the end, Mi Fang was speechless.

The whole night, the more he pressed, the more exciting the discussion became!

This is easy to understand, Guan Lin is arresting Wei spy, such as the "Changxin" restaurant, he captured all the people in the restaurant, it is impossible that these people are all Wei spy, right?

The family members of ordinary people will naturally come to make trouble, there are too many people, why don't they gather together, and the crowd is excited!

In addition, there is Li Miao who "even dares to scold Uncle Liu Huang".

It is conceivable... how much pressure is on him, Mi Fang?
Even, Mi Fang has a feeling...

Guan Gong has such a son, how can his heart not be tired?

But Guan Gong has such a son, it's inexplicable, why should he, Mi Fang, feel tired, tired like a dog!

but...

Mi Yang, his eyeballs must be.

As if suddenly thought of something.

He murmured, "If... as my father said, Wei spy and ordinary people will be arrested."

"Then...they are now being imprisoned at the same time, Wei spy must be different from ordinary people, so..."

"... This question becomes, how many people are there in Wei spy, how many innocent people are there? This is... the problem of chicken and rabbit in the same cage! The fourth son is solving... the problem of 'chicken and rabbit in the same cage'! "

ah... ah...

Hearing her son's words, Mi Fang suddenly had the illusion of screaming to the extreme.

咋…

Why is his son also stunned?

...
