When Ji Han and his men traveled to the Three Kingdoms crew

Chapter 85 Ma Chao and Ma Dai: This is our strategy of attacking when the enemy is halfway across the river!
Strange.

It's really weird.

Jia Xu walked along the streets of Wuyun County, following his own shadow. What he saw and heard today was really new to him.

It is not surprising to see one or two officials working hard.

The strange thing is that such people are common throughout the house.

Jia Xu was confused. No, he felt a little embarrassed just looking through the bamboo slips.

Besides, why is Hua Changshi, the chief of all officials, nowhere to be seen?

Why was the first thing you did when you came back to drive them out?
Even for Jia Xu, a scholarly man, it seems that it would take more than a day or two to figure out all these things.

From the beginning with Ma Teng and Pound, there was something weird about everything.

This feeling is like seeing flowers in the fog or the moon in the water.

It doesn't seem real no matter how you look at it.

Could it be that, as the Lord of the Mansion said, these people had been visited by immortals in their dreams?
Ridiculous, really ridiculous.

Jia Xu rubbed his head.

"Mother Zhong, is your leg healed?!"

"Yes, now I can get out of bed and walk with the help of a stick. Thank you so much, Mr. Hua."

Hua Changshi?
Hearing the familiar name, Jia Xu stopped immediately. He walked to the teahouse calmly, asked the owner for a cup of tea, sat down quietly, pricked up his ears, and listened to the conversation between Zhongmu and Youzi.

"Hereditary Hua? The Hereditary Hua who stopped Captain Zhang earlier today?"

"Yes, it was that Hua Changshi. At noon today, I was weaving bamboo baskets at home when a strange voice came from outside the door. The person who came said he was from the county government and that he was here to deal with the message your father-in-law left at the gate of the county government."

"A verbal message? It's what Mr. Liu said, 'If the county residents have any problems or difficulties, they can leave a message. If they are not well-versed in literature, they can enter the small door on the side of the county government. There are special officials behind the door to take care of it.' I thought it was just talk, but they actually came to deal with it?!!"

Just by listening to the voice of this Youzi, Jia Xu could imagine the shock on his face.

"Yes, it's amazing. It was Hua Changshi who personally led people here. There were so many people that I was shocked. Now that I think about it, they are actually quite kind."

"I see. But mother, did Hua Changshi bring a great doctor with him? But it's strange, why did he bring so many people?"

"No, it was Hua Changshi who treated me personally. While he was treating me, he said to the people behind him, 'This disease is typical, you must take good care of it.' Then I was fed some kind of decoction. Hua Changshi just held my legs with both hands. I didn't even blink, and I heard Hua Changshi say 'It's done.' Hua Changshi applied medicine to me, tied my legs with a cloth tape, gave me a few instructions, and left in a hurry. Not long after, I found that I could actually get out of bed. Only then did I regret that I didn't thank Hua Changshi properly, so I came here with a few eggs and a bamboo basket."

"So that's how it is. Mother Zhong, this is our good fortune."

"Yes."

"Mother Zhong, let me help you go to the county government."

The two men's voices ended there.

After listening to this, Jia Xu finally understood that Hua Changshi had gone to diagnose the people today.

It is not difficult to hear from the second mother and the adopted son that this Hua Changshi is teaching medical skills.

Jia Xu naturally guessed what Liu Bei was thinking. He raised his lips slightly, looked toward the horizon, and thought to himself, Lord Liu is really extraordinary. A doctor being the chief secretary, great.

Jia Xu stood up and paid for the tea.

With his hands behind his back, he walked towards his residence.

Since Ma Teng and Pang De demolished his house, Liu Bei generously gave him a mansion.

Jia Xu naturally accepted it with a thick face.

As he walked, he suddenly heard several childish voices.

"Minister, is it true that you mentioned the art of war that states to attack when the enemy is halfway across the river? Why do I feel that this is not the case? It seems different from what I have heard."

"Dai! Do you understand or does the Minister of the Chancellery understand? Didn't the Lord say that when you employ someone, trust him; when you doubt him, don't employ him!"

"Brother, is this how it is used?"

Hearing these words, Jia Xu couldn't help but laugh. This reminded him of his childhood. It was really interesting. Shangshu Ling? Then who is His Majesty? The title of "Lord" was novel.

As if by some strange coincidence, Jia Xu did not leave. Instead, he listened attentively to the children's jokes.

A voice that was calmer than before sounded.

"Do you two know the ancient Duke Xiang of Song?"

"Who? Please tell me in detail, Shangshu Ling." "Duke Xiang of Song was the second son of Duke Huan of Song in ancient times. He was the king of Song State. He was the most 'benevolent and righteous' person. In the Battle of Hongshui, he had the upper hand and had formed a battle array in front of Hongshui. However, he insisted on following the rule of 'not starting a battle if you are not in battle array'. He rejected his subordinates' correct suggestions to take advantage of the opportunity to attack twice, and stubbornly waited until the Chu army had formed its troops before giving the order to start the battle. As a result, he was killed and left his armor and weapons behind. It was really ridiculous."

"So Duke Xiang of Song gave up the opportunity to attack the enemy halfway across the river, which led to his failure?"

"Yes."

"But what does this have to do with the night raid I'm waiting for today?"

"Dai, don't say anything more. Let's listen to the Shangshu Ling."

"Oh."

"To put it simply, it means taking advantage of the opponent's moment of distraction to strike him head-on, just like when this guy is about to go to the toilet right now!"

After hearing this, Jia Xu raised his eyebrows. This "Shangshu Ling" is quite something.

But forget it.

He has to slip away, or he'll get into trouble.

Jia Xu took a step forward and rushed towards home. Not long after, he heard a voice behind him.

"boom--"

It was the sound of stones falling.

Then there was a cry of pain.

"Ouch!"

"Which brat hurt Naigong? It hurts, it hurts!"

After returning home.

Jia Xu's wife had already prepared the food, including vegetables and meat.

"My dear, wash your hands and have dinner."

Jia Xu's wife laughed.

"handwashing?"

Jia Xu still had his wife help him to undress.

"It was spread by the county government, saying that washing hands before eating can prevent disease."

"I understand."

After washing his hands, Jia Xu sat on the chair. This was also the item that Liu Fujun "compensated" him with.

Looking at the table full of dishes, Jia Xu did not eat them as heartily as usual.

My wife is very confused

"My dear, what's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

"No, my dear, let me ask you, who are our neighbors?"

"Let me think."

The wife put down her chopsticks and thought about it seriously.

"The only person currently staying here is the former chief clerk, Mr. Han Yuehan. I heard that the other officials chose to live in the county government out of shame."

"That's it."

Jia Xu did not ask any more questions. He began to concentrate on eating. He roughly understood who the three were. Ma Teng had told him that there was a son and an adopted son. Their names were Chao and Dai. They were deeply loved by Liu Fujun and often mingled with Fa Zheng, who was the same age as them.

It looks like there will be something interesting to watch tomorrow.

The next day, Jia Xu got up very early.

Hurry to the county government.

Three loud singings were heard in the distance.

When he got closer and looked through the crack of the courtyard door, he saw three children standing in a row, and Liu Fujun was spanking them on the buttocks with his palms. Oh, except for one, who was spanking the palms.
