Into July, the weather is still hot. The war in the North was transferred from Chenliu county to Yanzhou East County.

Dongjun is the place where Cao Cao made his fortune.

Today, Cao Cao is stationed in Dongjun and confronts Liu Xiu.

Ten miles away from the military camp, there was the Chu camp led by Liu Xiusuo.

The Chinese Army's big account, Liu XiuXiu, looks at the information presented. The news Liu Xiu read came from all over the country recently, including Yingchuan County, Yuzhou and Yangzhou.

Zhang Ren and Zhao Yun fought and won in succession, constantly expanding their territory.

In Yuzhou, taishici also attacked the city and plundered the land.

Now, there is no news of Huang Zhong's victory. But Liu Xiu trusted Huang Zhong and Ma Liang. Both Huang Zhong and Ma Liang are capable of winning.

Moreover, commander Lu Xun's navy was also in Yangzhou. With the full cooperation of Lu Xun's navy, it is not difficult to defeat Yu Jin of Guangling.

When Chu and Wei fought, Wei was weak.

Although Cao Cao still has enough territory, including Jizhou, Bingzhou, Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Youzhou and so on, Cao Cao's generals have fewer and fewer generals to use when they surrender or die in battle.

And Cao Cao himself, now more and more old, is no longer in his prime. Even though Cao Cao was not affected by headache, he was greatly affected by his age.

On the contrary, under Liu Xiu's command, all the legions are powerful.

All the legions are first-class generals.

For example, Tai Shici, Wen pin, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, Zhang Ren, Zhao Yun and others can stand in their own way if they bring them out. Not to mention Liu Xiu's rear area, there are Jia Xu, Zhuge Liang, Zhang Zhao, Zhou Yu, Lu Su and other talents in charge to ensure that Liu Xiu has enough advantages.

Liu Xiu's overall strength is higher than Cao Cao's.

In particular, Liu Xiu also has lumen academy to cultivate talents, which enriches Liu Xiu's talent reserve.

When the coaches of both sides are not confused, it depends on who is better. Cao Cao's strength is weak, so he is inferior. So now Liu Xiu has an advantage in fighting. Although Cao Cao wants to counterattack, he is powerless.

"Step on it! Step on it

A sound of footwork came from the self operated account.

A royal guard came in, handed a letter and reported: "Your Majesty, this is the latest war report."

"I see!"

Liu Xiu waved his hand and the royal guards stepped down respectfully.

After opening the letter, Liu Xiu scanned it quickly. At the moment, Liu Xiu's face was full of joy. Besides Zhang Ren, Zhao Yun and Tai Shici, Huang Zhong's news is also in the news.

Huang Zhong and Tai Shici united to capture Guangling county and were captured alive.

In the war report, the war was described very clearly.

Today, Yu Jin is escorted by soldiers to Xiangyang by water, and then he will go north by land to Liu Xiu's place. Calculating the time, it is estimated that at most half a month, Yu Jin will be delivered.

Liu Xiu called wenpin, Ma Chao and others to tell them the news of Huang Zhong's victory. However, Liu Xiu's request to keep quiet for the time being is tantamount to bringing Yu Jin to Cao Cao's camp after the ban was sent, which stimulates Cao Cao once again.

In the evening, Xu Shu came to Liu Xiu's camp. On Xu Shu's face, also overflowing with smile, hugged fist to say: "Your Majesty, great joy, great joy."

Liu Xiu asked, "what's the happy event?"

In the morning, Liu Xiu got the news that Huang Zhong had won a great victory and Yu Jin had been captured. Liu Xiu was very happy with the news. Now Xu Shu comes back to report the good news, which can be called double happiness.

Xu Shu is very excited, excited way: "Your Majesty with me to logistics camp will know."

Liu Xiu became curious.

What happened in the end made the steady Xu Shu so excited.

Liu Xiu stood up, followed Xu Shu out of the big account of the Chinese army, and went straight to the logistics camp. Xu Shu led Liu Xiu into the warehouse, went into the innermost part, waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty, please have a look!"

In the eye, yellow and golden.

In front of each other's pumpkin, a pumpkin, neatly stacked in the warehouse. Moreover, the pumpkins piled on the ground are not small pumpkins with a weight of several jin or ten jin. They are very big, at least more than 30 jin. They are very good in appearance.

Liu Xiu looked happy and said, "I forgot that it's July now. The pumpkin has begun to blossom and mature."

Liu Xiu is very familiar with pumpkin.

Now that he has harvested pumpkin, Liu Xiu is also very happy.

Xu Shu took out a letter from his long sleeve, handed it to Liu Xiu, and reported: "Your Majesty, this is a letter from Shoufu. It's about pumpkin."

Liu Xiu took it apart and looked at it.

In Kuai Liang's letter, it was mentioned that pumpkin blossomed and fruited a lot, and began to harvest in batches. The pumpkin delivered to Liu Xiu's camp is the first batch of 100000 Jin, and more pumpkins will be delivered in the future. Kuai Liang also asked Liu Xiu to order the soldiers in the kitchen to collect pumpkin seeds for planting in the coming year.Liu Xiu handed the letter to Xu Shu and said, "Yuanzhi, collect pumpkin seeds according to Kuai Liang's arrangement. For Chu, this is the most important material. "

"Here it is

Xu Shu responded respectfully.

He knew the importance of pumpkin and didn't dare to neglect it.

As soon as the words changed, Xu Shu said, "Your Majesty, I'm thinking about whether to take out some pumpkin soup and share it with the soldiers. According to people sent by Shoufu adults, pumpkin soup is quite delicious. "

Liu Xiu said: "this evening's dinner, add a pumpkin soup."

"Here it is

Xu Shu responded excitedly.

Liu Xiu looked at Xu Shu's excited expression, but his heart was Gujing bubo. Pumpkin is an excellent food for people of this era. But in later generations, it is simply too ordinary to be ordinary.

In this era, the living standard is very low. It's good to have a bite.

Pumpkin is very sweet and can fill the stomach.

Such food is a treasure to the people.

Liu Xiu and Xu Shu leave the camp. Xu Shu arranges to cook pumpkin soup. Liu Xiu goes back to the camp.

It's July and the pumpkin harvest is beginning.

Pumpkins are being harvested continuously, but sweet potatoes will have to wait for months.

When Liu Xiu was a little depressed, in the recent period of time, he unexpectedly got the Warring States system without any tasks, which made Liu Xiu helpless. If the system doesn't work, he can't benefit from the system and can't use it on the people.

Less than half an hour later, the camp began to serve dinner.

This evening's food, in addition to the daily meat and meals, each soldier also has a bowl of pumpkin soup, which is rich. But I don't know what pumpkin soup is.

When a soldier heard the news from the chef in the kitchen and learned that the pumpkin was planted with the seed given by God to Liu Xiu, all the soldiers were excited.

The things of heaven are extraordinary.

It's a blessing in my life to be late for the food God has given me.

The news spread in a very short time, especially after the first soldier drank a mouthful of pumpkin soup, the refreshing sweetness reverberated in his throat, the taste buds felt incomparably comfortable, and the whole person enjoyed it incomparably.

"Cool!"

The soldier's eyes lit up and quickly ran to one side to eat. After drinking the soup, the pumpkin in the bowl soon entered the soldier's stomach. The cooked pumpkin is extremely soft and crisp. It will rot when you sip it. It tastes sweet and full-bodied with endless aftertaste.

"It's delicious. It's delicious."

"It's worthy of God's seed. This pumpkin is really delicious."

"Happy to follow your majesty."

"If only we could have such delicious food every day in the future. I don't know if I can eat this kind of food in the future? "

The soldier talked, very excited.

The whole camp was in a state of excitement.

Liu Xiu saw this scene and looked at the satisfied smile on the soldier's face. He was also very happy. When he returned to the camp, the soldiers had already brought the prepared meals and pumpkin soup for Liu Xiu.

Looking at the pumpkin soup, Liu Xiu suddenly thought of Cao Cao ten miles away.
