It wasn't that Cao Chun didn't believe it, but that it was too ridiculous.
Wine, wine, wine. Although wine could be burned, how could it be better than kerosene?
Bai Feng narrated the entire story of the two hundred thousand Qiang Army soldiers being attacked with fire.
Hearing this, Cao Chun's heart itched unbearably. He couldn't wait to lead his troops to give it a try.
"Forget it, forget it. Bring more wine back."
"Remember, don't say that I gave it to you. Otherwise, the prime minister will make trouble for me again."
Bai Feng waved his hand and prepared to send the guest off.
Bai Feng had personally seen what Cao Chun was like when he was drunk.
This fellow was the worst drinker Bai Feng had ever seen.
He couldn't let him drink too much. The frontlines were in a tight situation, and the Ferocious Cavalry might have to take the lead.
If Cao Chun fell asleep here and delayed the important matters, wouldn't he be beaten a hundred times?
Cao Chun knew that he had drunk enough. He reluctantly moved the jar to the side and said in a low voice,
"Teacher, actually, I came this time to ask Wei Emperor something."
"Has Teacher heard of a general called Lu Xun in Jiangdong?"
Bai Feng paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Of course I do.
Lu Xun, Lu Boyan. What's wrong with him? "
How could he not know Lu Xun?
During the YiLing Battle, the burning of the camps had burned away all of Liu Bei's life's work.
Also, after Zhou Yu, Lu Su, and Lu Meng, Lu Xun had become the new Governor of Dongyue Wu.
However, it was normal that Cao Chun didn't know. After all, Lu Xun only shone in the later stages.
This was probably Lu Xun's first time on the battlefield.
"What? Did you meet Lu Xun during the southern expedition? "
Bai Feng couldn't help but narrow his eyes and ask.
Speaking of which, during the southern expedition, Jiangdong seemed to have sent Lu Xun and Huang Gai.
Cao Chun nodded heavily and said,
"Wei Emperor said that you are wise and resourceful. Since you know of Lu Xun, do you know of his plans?"
"No one in the southern expedition knew Lu Xun. I heard that Lu Meng was not the main commander of Jiangdong, but Lu Xun."
"So, I specially asked you to ask if you know."
Cao Cao had previously discovered that Bai Feng was able to discover the bright spots of some nameless soldiers. As expected, there were indeed great talents in the later stages.
Therefore, Cao Cao wanted to give it a try, so he asked Bai Feng directly.
Bai Feng smiled calmly.
"Naturally, he specializes in fire attacks."
"He's not bad in terms of leading troops, but he's probably not as good as Lu Meng."
It was not that Bai Feng looked down on Lu Xun, but the current Lu Xun could not compare to Lu Meng.
No matter how talented a person who had just entered the battlefield was, unless he was a transmigrator like himself, there was no way he could compare to Lu Meng, who had been on the battlefield for a long time.
However, Lu Xun's mastery of fire was perfect, and there was a possibility that he could do it now.
Cao Chun immediately frowned.
"I understand now!"
"No wonder the Jiangdong spies have been keeping an eye on the military supplies and granaries these days. So this is the reason!"
"I'll immediately report to the Prime Minister. Take care, Sir."
After saying that, Cao Chun immediately walked towards the gate of the Governor's Office with a serious expression.
Bai Feng could not help but be slightly stunned.
Good lord, he came and went like the wind, and left just like that?
Didn't he say that he was here to catch up with her?
Suddenly, Cao Chun hurried back and took away the two jars of white wine on Bai Feng's table with a smile.
"Thank you for your hospitality, Sir. Goodbye."
After saying that, he disappeared without a trace with the jars of white wine.
Bai Feng immediately smiled bitterly and shook his head.
However, he had already guessed the general situation.
It seemed that Lu Xun wanted to use the same method to deal with the Qiang people.
Just like the Battle of Guandu, he burned the military supplies.
As long as the military supplies were cut off, even if the Wei army had a lot of food, it would take some time to transport it over.
At that time, he only needed to keep an eye on the military supply wagons.
Even if he could not hijack the military supply wagons, he could at least buy some time.
If the fire was too big, Boss Cao might suffer heavy casualties.
Thinking of this, Bai Feng smiled faintly and shook his head slightly.
As for the southern expedition, as long as Boss Cao doesn't go and mess around with some young married woman and stage another Battle of Wancheng, it is very likely that he will succeed.
However, Liu Bei and Sun Quan were not to be trifled with. Even if they were defeated, they would not be as desperate as Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao.
They were very cunning.
What Bai Feng needed to think about now was his mission.
Boss Cao unexpectedly told him to recruit soldiers to defend Hanzhong?
This was a great thing!
Bai Feng did not have many soldiers under his command.
Originally, Bai Feng wanted to use the military strategy book on Shanyue's soldiers.
It was unrealistic to want to station soldiers in Hanzhong.
However, with Boss Cao's words, Bai Feng felt relieved.
Thinking of this, Bai Feng called Liu Ba over, intending to get him to help her recruit some troops.
"Ah?"
When Liu Ba heard Bai Feng's words, he was stunned.
"Teacher, are you joking?"
"Now that Wei Emperor is on a southern expedition, isn't it inappropriate for you to station soldiers in Hanzhong?"
Liu Ba clearly misunderstood Bai Feng.
Bai Feng shrugged helplessly and handed over Cao Cao's letter.
"What station soldiers? I'm just carrying out Wei Emperor's orders. "
"Now that the Di people are taking advantage of Wei Emperor's southern expedition, how can Hanzhong's soldiers be enough?"
"Just building crossbows is far from enough. We need soldiers."
After reading the letter, Liu Ba heaved a sigh of relief.
"Good! Then this official will go and find good soldiers for you. "
"However, how many soldiers does Teacher intend to recruit?"
Liu Ba had been in Hanzhong for a long time and naturally understood the situation in Hanzhong.
There were many able-bodied men in Hanzhong and countless of them wanted to join the army.
However, without Wei Emperor's orders, who would dare to recruit soldiers?
Now that the imperial edict was sent over, it was not a problem to recruit fifty to sixty thousand soldiers.
After all, the current flow of people in Hanzhong was not just limited to Hanzhong.
Bai Feng smiled faintly.
"Twenty thousand is enough."
Liu Ba nodded his head heavily.
"Okay, this official will go and do it now!"
In reality, it wasn't that Bai Feng didn't want more soldiers.
On the contrary, Bai Feng couldn't wait to recruit all the soldiers she could.
However, twenty thousand soldiers was enough for now.
The quality of soldiers wasn't important in quantity. Bai Feng didn't have many military books that he could use.
If it was just ordinary soldiers, there wasn't much point in recruiting them.
It was enough to complete the system's mission. Furthermore, twenty thousand soldiers wasn't a big deal to Boss Cao.
