Chapter 14 Ordnance (1)

Boom!

Thunder and lightning.

People say that spring rain is as expensive as oil, but Liu Chuang now feels that this annoying spring rain is really not the time.

Spring thunder suddenly sounds, and all things are resurrected.

This was an excellent sign, but it caused a lot of trouble to the caravan.

The heavy rain poured down, making the road particularly muddy. Although I was wearing a straw raincoat, it was useless in this pouring rain.

Liu Chuang spat and wiped away the rain from his face.

He urged the horse to take a few steps, and went to Pei Shao and shouted loudly: "Boss Pei, how long will it take to rain?"

Pei Shao was almost the same as Liu Chuang at this time, and he had already been poured into a chicken. He held his horse steadily and replied at the top of his voice: "It's hard to say... It's hard to say that this way, I'm afraid I can't stop for a while. Damn, how could it rain so heavily at this time? But something I've never encountered before. I guess it's going to rain until dark, and it's really troublesome if it doesn't work out all night."

The ancients had the ability to look at the celestial phenomena and could infer the changes in the weather from some meteorological characteristics.

At dawn, Pei Shao reminded that there might be heavy rain.

However, the sun was shining brightly at that time, neither Liu Chuang nor Mi She cared about it, and insisted on urging the convoy to get on the road. However, at noon, the wind and clouds changed color, and a heavy rain suddenly came, which caught Liu Chuang and others off guard. But the problem was that there was no village or shop in front of the village, and there was no place to shelter in the wilderness. Even though he knew that it was difficult to move on a rainy day, he still gritted his teeth and insisted on moving forward.

But this road...

Liu Chuang cursed himself, urged the horse to walk forward, and rushed to the side of the elk.

"Moe is in charge. Looking at the rain, I am afraid that I can't stop for a while... It's the most dangerous thing to rush through this kind of heavy rain. I'd better find a place to rest and shelter from the rain. What do you think?"

The situation of the moose is not much better.

He can no longer hold on to the road in this kind of rainy day.

“I have sent someone to explore the road ahead to see if there is a place to shelter from the rain.

Let's move forward even harder. As long as there is a place to shelter the rain in front of us, we will stop and rest... Damn, this rain is so weird. In previous years, even when it rained, it was mostly light rain, not like it is now, as if the sky was about to collapse.

Could it be that God is warning something about this thief?”

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, prophecies and divination were very popular.

For example, if the lightning strikes a house, it is a warning from God. If the military flag in the military camp is broken, it may be an enemy soldier's attack... Liu Chuang was stunned and suddenly had a strange thought. Is this heavy rain really meaningful? Could it be a warning to Liu Bei that Lu Bu was going to rebel?

Thinking of this, Liu Chuang couldn't help laughing.

If this is true, Liu Bei may not be able to see the clues.

Forget it, this kind of thing has nothing to do with me. Since I have decided to be a timely help, I hope that Lu Wenhou can drive Liu Bei away successfully.

Only in this way can my ability be revealed!

Just as he was thinking about his thoughts, he suddenly heard the whine of the carriage and horse Xi Yuyu in front of him.

Immediately afterwards, a big cart fell on the road with a bang... The boxes on the car also fell into the mud. Two boxes broke on the spot, and bundles of arrows scattered in the mud.

Mi She's face changed and she hurriedly rushed forward, "What's going on?"

"The big manager, the horse stumbled, broke his legs, and even the car overturned..."

A servant immediately stepped forward to give in. Mi She looked a little ugly, and quickly directed the servant to clean up the boxes in the car and the arrows scattered on the ground.

Although he was already quick to react, Liu Chuang still saw it.

Red-stemmed white-feathered arrow?

Liu Chuang couldn't help but feel a sudden slap in his heart... Could it be that the car was equipped with weapons?

Red-stemmed white-feathered arrows are standard standard arrows. Ordinary workshops dare not produce them at all. Only official workshops can produce them. Is it because of these arrows? There are thirty arrows in a bundle, so there are at least 100,000 red-stemmed white-feathered arrows on these dozens of carriages. Why is it because the Mi family bought so many arrows? So many arrows are enough for people to rebel.

While I was thinking, I suddenly heard a burst of scolding.

It turned out that a servant who was carrying a box fell to the ground accidentally, and the wooden box on his shoulder shattered, and ten knives immediately caught Liu Chuang's eyes.

Liu Chuang suddenly realized that these weapons were probably not used by the Mi family, but were prepared for Liu Xuande.

As we all know, although Liu Bei won Xuzhou, he did not have much strength. Most of his troops were recruited temporarily, and many people didn't even have a handy weapon. How could he defend Xuzhou in this situation? Liu Bei did not dare to buy weapons on a large scale. After all, Xuzhou is located in the four battles, and Cao Cao and Yuan Shu were eyeing him. He had to secretly strengthen his arms to avoid stimulating the enemy.

In this case, smuggling arms is a good way to go.

The most suitable person to come forward to take charge of this matter is the home of the local snake in Xuzhou.

The Mi family was born as a merchant and traveled to the Lianghuai River. They knew the situation of the Lianghuai River... This must be the case, otherwise the Mi family would not be able to explain clearly if they acquired so many weapons.

Mi She had already got off the war horse, rushed up with a horse whip in her hand, and beat the servant.

The servants screamed in the rain and begged for mercy, but the servants next to them looked blank and turned a blind eye to this scene.

Liu Chuang frowned and stepped back to the back of the convoy.

He can't interfere in such a thing... The best way is to pretend that he hasn't seen anything, otherwise he may cause unnecessary trouble.

"Meng Yan, what happened ahead?"

Pei Shao urged him to step forward and asked softly.

Liu Chuang smiled, "It's nothing, it's just a carriage that has fallen down and is cleaning up."

We just need to stay here, Mishe said just now that he had sent a horse to go out. If he had a place to live, he would rest and avoid the heavy rain."

Pei Shao said: "This is the best! This kind of weather is really not suitable for traveling, so it is better to find a place to shelter from the rain."

After saying that, he wiped his face again and started cursing. Liu Chuang didn't hear it very clearly, and Pei Shao used Qingzhou dialect, so he didn't understand it. He rode on the horse, put on a shed in his hand and looked up at him, but he saw that the world seemed to be covered by rain, and was confused.

I didn't know why, but suddenly I had an ominous premonition.

He subconsciously held the iron-ridge spear tightly and observed around him vigilantly, but he could not see clearly anything.

In about a quarter of an hour, the convoy was sorted out. The dumped carriage could no longer be used, and the items on the car were moved to other vehicles. Liu Chuang passed by the falling carriage and saw a carriage lying in the mud. Xi Yuyu whined. It struggled with its four hooves and wanted to stand up, but failed.

"This horse is ruined!"

Pei Shao sighed softly, "The toes are broken, the front legs are broken... Even if you stand up, you can't do anything, and you will still be able to escape the knife in the end."

Listening to the wailing sound of cars and horses, Liu Chuang felt a little heavy in his heart.

He suddenly turned his horse's head, rushed over and thrust his spear on the neck of the carriage and horse.

The horse immediately stopped neighing, and blood flowed out instantly along the wound, and the rain quickly dyed the ground red.

"It's good to kill... It's like this, either being eaten by wild animals or being slaughtered.

Give it a pleasure, it is also a relief." Chang Sheng came to Liu Chuang, looked at the carriage and horse still twitching, and said sadly: "Today you give it a pleasure, but who can give you a pleasure in the future... Meng Yan, I know you are kind, but this woman's kindness is not good. If you are on the battlefield, you will lose your life if you don't do it well, and you still need to be careful in the future."

Liu Chuang turned his head and looked at Changsheng.

After a while, he asked softly: "Who are you?"

Chang Sheng smiled slightly, "Of course I am a friend... Meng Yan doesn't have to worry. Even if we are willing to do something bad for you, Brother Zhu will never agree.

But you have thought of a way out in the future?"

Way out?

Liu Chuang's eyes couldn't help but narrowed into a slit and looked at Changsheng.

However, Chang Sheng did not speak anymore, but turned his head and urged the horse to run towards the convoy.

Looking at Changsheng's back, a strange look flashed across Liu Chuang's face.

Zhu Hai!

Uncle Hai, you are indeed a person with a story...

Including Pei Shao and his subordinates in Yanshuitan, it is probably not simple. However, Liu Chuang couldn't understand why these people stayed in Qu County for whether they were Zhu Hai or Pei Shao? Could it be that it was really just because Zhu Hai wanted to repay his kindness?

This era is becoming more and more interesting!

Liu Chuang took a deep breath and wiped his face.
