Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

Chapter 176 Welcome Dong Bai, the army will set off soon! 【Please subscribe and ask for a monthly ticket】

that night.

There are lanterns and festoons on Cao Ang's mansion.

Lanterns were lit between the corridors and alleys, and the pavilions and pavilions were covered with various decorations.

Especially the courtyard in the West Wing of Fuchu.

It is even more grandly decorated.

In the courtyard, the maids walked back and forth among them holding things in their hands.

Many people have been busy working on window sills, garden trees and other places according to their allocated errands.

This lasted about half an hour.

Many preparatory procedures are considered to be arranged.

"Quickly, go and report to the young master personally, and say that everything is arranged here, and we can start!"

Following the shout of the big maid in the yard.

Even someone ran out quickly.

After a moment.

Cao Ang took Dong Bai's hand and appeared in the courtyard, and the moment he saw the two of them.

The sound of music suddenly sounded in the courtyard.

And at the same time.

All the maids and servants.

They saluted the two in unison.

All of them had smiles on their faces, their expressions were brimming with joy, and they congratulated in cheerful voices: "Congratulations, son, congratulations, madam, today, a happy marriage!"

See this situation.

Cao Ang's face was cheerful.

Today is an entrance ceremony he specially prepared for Dong Bai, which is equivalent to a simplified version of a wedding.

Many ceremonial procedures for marrying the main wife must be deleted or modified here.

But other processes that do not have any negative impact are naturally retained.

The only function of such a simplified ceremony is to appease Dong Bai's heart, and it is precisely this function that Cao Ang feels is necessary.

So he did.

As for Dong Bai, whose little hand had been tightly held by him all this time, his eyes were rolling at this moment, and there seemed to be a gleam in his eyes. He tried his best to put a smile on his face, but he couldn't help but wanted to shed tears.

He turned to look at Cao Ang who was on the side.

Seeing that he was also looking at himself.

The two looked at each other.

For a moment, Dong Bai was full of tenderness and emotions, as if at this moment, there were countless words and emotions in his chest, and he wanted to pour them out to Cao Ang.

As a woman.

Abandoned their loved ones.

She came all the way from Luoyang, and lived in a place where, except for Cao Ang, everyone else was a stranger to her.

And because of the many things her grandfather had done, she and Cao Ang had opposite positions, and the position of the first wife, which was a sure thing, now melted and disintegrated like snowflakes under the scorching sun.

Dong Bai didn't blame anyone.

Many things are independent of her will.

But as a daughter's family, it is inevitable to feel wronged.

But today Cao Ang is willing to set a precedent for her. Hearing that this is a treatment that Diao Chan's sister has never had, she is indeed a little moved.

Sure enough, I am still valued!

……

"My lord, madam, please wash your hands!"

With the sound of congratulations, it fell.

A servant girl brought a copper basin with some clean water in it, and a cloth towel beside it.

Cao Ang stretched out his hands to wash in the basin, and then dabbed on his own face to show that his face had also been washed.

Then, he wiped Dong Bai's face lightly twice with the cloth towel soaked in water, and then wiped her hands to show that he entered the house cleanly.

Then there are a few small details.

After doing this three times.

The maid serving as the etiquette officer led the two into the house, and after sitting down at the table, ordered someone to bring a plate of meat.

"Newcomers, please do the same prison ceremony!"

Same prison means eating the same kind of meat in the same bowl, which means sharing joys and sorrows.

Cao Ang and Dong Bai picked up the chopsticks without hesitation, picked up a piece of meat, chewed it and swallowed it.

Wait until the plate is removed.

Another maid brought two glasses of wine.

"Newcomers, please do the wedding ceremony!"

This is handing over glasses of wine, and it is also a ceremony that will appear in ordinary weddings.

The two got up immediately.

Under the guidance of the maid, they drank with each other, and drank the light wine in the cup in one gulp.

The maid serving as the ceremonial officer saluted the two of them.

Then he said with a smile on his face: "Young Master, Ma'am, the etiquette has been completed, and I hope to cherish the beautiful scenery of the beautiful night tonight, so I will not delay any longer!"

Hear this.

Cao Ang smiled, and then said very generously: "Thank you for your hard work, tell them after you go out, this month's regular money will be doubled, and I will reward you, my lord!"

The maid was immediately overjoyed.

Another heavy gift in a hurry.

While saluting, he looked at Dong Bai, who was sitting opposite Cao Ang, who was more charming than Hua, but he couldn't help feeling a little envious in his heart.

Mrs. Dong, who just entered the door, is really loved by the young master. It seems that in the future, she must be more respected in this house, and she must not make mistakes in front of her.

Of course.

The lady in the East Court should not be underestimated.

Her old man is still in charge of all the big and small affairs of the whole house, even the maids' allowances are all issued by that lady, and her status is even more lofty.

……

Before the maids exit.

And after the sound of talking, laughing and playing gradually faded away, only Cao Ang and Dong Bai were left in the room.

Looking at the petite and lovely woman in front of him.

Today, she changed her previous style drastically. She was wearing a bright red satin dress with a black lining inside, making her look dignified and majestic.

Besides.

The girlish buns that were always cute, fresh and bright in normal times were changed into a slightly mature look at this moment.

All kinds of jewellery, gold and jade hairpins are inserted on the head, and a bunch of red tassels is wrapped around the hair hanging down on the back of the head.

The eyebrow line that was specially drawn with an eyebrow pencil, and the slightly upturned eyelashes set off those big watery eyes more and more vividly.

Especially Cao Ang was surprised.

It was Dong Bai's lips that became as fiery red as vermilion lacquer after being stained with rouge, which made people feel that they were dancing and burning like flames at a glance.

The lovely petite woman of the past.

Today, it seems like a different person, with a mature and charming style as a whole.

to be frank.

Cao Ang felt his eyes light up.

This kind of contrast really does not have a flavor.

……

Cao Ang's gaze was full of appreciation, but also full of aggressiveness, looking up and down.

Dong Bai felt a little shy.

There was a slight blush on the cheeks.

He curled up involuntarily, then as if wanting to relieve his tension, after hesitating for a while, he asked Cao Ang softly.

"Husband... Husband, why do you want to welcome me today? I thought that I might have to stay in the house for a while before I waited until today."

There were two squeaks.

The eldest lady finally called out the word "husband".

This made the smile on Cao Ang's face even stronger.

He reached out and grabbed Dong Bai's catkin.

Changed position and sat down.

Grabbing Dong Bai's waist with his right hand, he said with a light smile.

"Actually, I should have prepared for this earlier. It's just that I have encountered some major events one after another. After running around, I really can't get out of my life, so I have delayed it so far."

Speaking of it.

Cao Ang paused for a moment, patted Dong Bai's waist lightly with his palm, and then smiled.

"For a long time to come, I may be busy with various military and government affairs, and may be busy in the north and other counties."

"In order to save you from waiting impatiently, I just thought about finishing this matter before leaving Dingtao County."

Cao Ang just finished speaking.

There was a light pat on the chest.

But it attracted Dong Bai's coquettish dissatisfaction.

"Humph!"

"Who is in a hurry?"

"I'm not in a hurry, even if I wait until March and May, I'm not in the slightest hurry!"

Still a familiar taste.

It makes people feel that there is only a smile in their hearts.

This made Cao Ang couldn't help pinching Dong Bai's round and smooth face, then narrowed his eyes and smiled.

"Okay, okay, you're not in a hurry, it's me who is in a hurry, I'm in a hurry!"

"So my dear wife, your husband and I are in such a hurry, should we..."

while talking.

Cao Ang's chin was raised in the direction of the couch, and the expression was self-evident.

Dong Bai immediately blushed.

Feifei's cheeks, which were already a little flushed, now became red all the way to the ears, and even the earlobes were a little congested, like a crystal ruby.

"I... I don't understand, I just listen to you!"

……

Blow out the red candle.

The beginning of the moon.

In the courtyard full of festive decorations, a piece of moonlight was sprinkled.

It was quite quiet at first listen.

But from time to time, the sound of conversations between the children coming from the house can also be heard.

"Don't scratch my feet, it's so itchy!"

But it soon returned to calm.

.........

Although gentle country is good.

But don't wallow in it either.

So despite waking up early the next morning.

The moment Dong Bai saw himself, he panickedly retracted Bai Nenxiaoqiao into the brocade quilt with a timid look.

It made Cao Ang feel a little uneasy, and even couldn't help but want to hold him in his arms and take care of him.

But for the sake of the great family business, the military situation is urgent.

After Cao Ang stayed with Dong Bai for a whole morning, he called up the army that afternoon, vowed to set off, and headed north all the way.

The Northern Defense War.

He has the heaviest task and the greatest pressure, so he must race against time to reach the designated destination ahead of schedule.

If they can arrive a few days earlier, before the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans attack, they will arrange many means around Linqiu County.

No matter how much you want to come, you can increase your chances of winning by a few percent.

And now on the march.

Cao Ang held the scorching sun with his hands.

Hearing the kicking sound of the horses under their seats when thousands of cavalry in the team advanced, he was a little distracted for a while.

The horses under the seats of these thousands of cavalrymen are all equipped with a complete set of harnesses. In addition, the soldiers in the cavalry battalion now, under Cao Chun's strict training, can be regarded as mature soldiers with some experience.

Presumably to the battlefield.

It must be a good fighting force.

There is just one thing that makes Cao Ang quite worried.

That is, his cavalry is too small after all.

……

Although the Yellow Turban Bandits in Qingzhou are basically composed of refugees and bandits, nine out of ten have no military training, let alone battlefield experience.

Fighting depends on swarms of bees.

When encountering setbacks and failures, they collapse in droves without any discipline.

But having a large number of people is an advantage after all.

There are tens of thousands of people, even if they are scattered in the city, it is still a large group of people.

On the other hand, I am only a thousand cavalry.

If they couldn't find a suitable opportunity to enter the field, and failed to release the cavalry when the morale of the Yellow Turbans was low, then such a scale might not be enough to break the morale of the Yellow Turbans' army, and it would not be able to determine the outcome of the entire battle.

So after the war broke out.

As the commander-in-chief of the entire army, he must always pay attention to the movements on the battlefield, act cautiously, and keep an eye on the timing.

thought here.

Cao Ang suddenly felt a little envious of Gongsun Zan.

This General White Horse has too many cavalry, and they are all elite cavalry.

There are five thousand elite cavalry, tens of thousands of elite cavalry at every turn. Facing a mob like the yellow turban bandits, I am afraid that you don't even need to think about tactics.

There is no need to look for a fighter, just release it directly. The overwhelming sound of horseshoes trampling, as well as the endless dust flying, may cause the enemy to collapse in an instant, or even flee without a fight.

of course.

Envy to envy.

But Cao Ang is also very confident in himself.

As the power of the Cao family continued to grow and the territory they owned continued to expand, the number of soldiers and generals under their command snowballed.

Sooner or later, he will surpass Gongsun Zan in military strength.

At the same time, he also possesses a harness suit, which is an epoch-making treasure. Once the two sides are equal in strength, I am afraid that Gongsun Zan's cavalry will not be his opponent.

……

three days later.

The army had just turned over a gentle slope.

Cao Ang rode on a red rabbit horse.

Observe the surrounding terrain with eyes left and right.

After a while, he even took out the map from his pocket, handed it to Cao Chun beside him, and then asked him, "Zihe, look at where we are now, and how far we can go to the next map." place."

Cao Chun took the map.

After a careful comparison, and some memories and calculations.

He bowed his hands to Cao Ang and reported to him.

"Reporting to General, after another three days, we should be able to reach Pushui, and after crossing Pushui, we can reach Dayang County in less than half a day, which will be the last county seat before Linqiu County."

Cao Ang nodded.

There is one disadvantage of leading a large army on the march, that is, the marching speed is relatively slow.

From Dingtao County to Linqiu County, the distance between the two is about the same as that from Dingtao County to Shanfu County.

But for the latter, when Cao Ang took Ren Jun to look for mines there, it only took seven days. Judging from the current posture, the former took more than ten days at least.

"It's almost noon, find a shady place, let the brothers rest there for a while, use some water and dry food, replenish some strength, and then go on the road!"

After Cao Chun took the order.

Immediately ordered things down.

It didn't take long for the army to rest on the ground in a qualified position.

After waving to signal everyone to be alert.

Cao Ang leaned against a big tree.

Silently, without moving, the whole person quietly fell into a state of stillness.

And the moment he stood still.

Something amazing happened.

Cao Ang's whole body, arms, torso, head, and even every corner, unexpectedly shone with jade-colored light.

It looks amazing.
