Han Xiang

Chapter 355 Cross-Era Video Call
Seeing that Xu Chu was about to attack, Long Xiang jumped up holding the edge of the bed, interrupting the enthusiasm of the strong man in front of him.

"Don't worry about Zhongkang. There won't be many clothes after summer, so I can do it myself."

"Oh Mo will wait outside the door."

Looking at Xu Chu's swaying and broad back, Long Xiang remembered that he lived in the backyard and had beauties serving him, and he really couldn't get used to the strong man changing his clothes, he would rather do it himself to have enough food and clothing.

From frugality to extravagance is easy, and from extravagance to frugality is difficult, Long Xiang said in his heart that the ancients did not deceive me.

Dressed neatly, he hurried out and boarded the West Tower in a short while.

Looking around, there was nothing unusual, Long Xiang was about to ask something, only to see Xu Chu walking towards the northwest corner like a bull plowing the field.

Long Xiang followed with doubts, and didn't stop until he approached the northwest corner. He felt that he didn't find anything special around him.

At this moment, Xu Chu handed the binoculars to Long Xiang, pointed to Zhengxi and said:
"The general can see it with this binoculars."

"Is it?"

Long Xiang held up the binoculars suspiciously, and the scene in the lens was really shocking, because Lu Su was also holding the binoculars at the same time, standing at a corner of the new city wall and waving to himself, which was the southeast corner of the new city in his memory.

The new city of Hefei is not on the same level as the old city, but the southeast and northwest corners of the new city are very close to the horizontal line. The distance between the two is about five miles, which is the limit distance that binoculars can barely see clearly.

Long Xiang thought, good guy, I actually played a silent video in the Three Kingdoms period 2000 years ago?
Xu Chu brought Long Xiang more surprises, because he saw Lu Su shaking a small flag in his hand, and the regular shaking was obviously a semaphore.

Banners are commonly used in battle, generally dancing in bright colors, used to command the army to attack and retreat, and more complex flags are mostly used for sailing, but this happens to be the blind spot of Longxiang's knowledge.

Long Xiang put down the binoculars with doubts, and saw Xu Chu also brought a small red flag, so he asked tentatively:
"Can Zhongkang use semaphore to communicate with Zijing?"

"Yeah." Xu Chu nodded and explained, "It was accidentally discovered by the general and Mr., but the semaphore can express very little meaning, but now with the help of the telescope, there is no need to send troops to communicate between the two cities in the future. "

"It doesn't matter if the content of the semaphore is small, we can create new ones." Long Xiang listened happily, and then asked: "Zhongkang, do you have a semaphore for the other party to come over?"

"Well, I will try it at the end."

Holding the binoculars in one hand, Xu Chu waved the small flag in his right hand and kept swinging it. After a while, he lowered his arms and clasped his fists to report to Long Xiang:
"There was no such semaphore in the first place, but Mr. Zijing's understanding is very high. He just used the semaphore to show that he understood, and he will come here in a while."

"Haha, Zijing's comprehension is of course high."

Long Xiang responded with a smile, and added in his heart that a person who can be a governor will not be able to play well if his understanding is low.

Due to the accidental actions of Lu Su and Xu Chu, the telescope and the semaphore became a "video call", and the old and new cities of Hefei will be very close.

Long Xiang has completed the upgrade of the power of the corner by himself. In the future, the coordinated defense and mobilization between the two cities will be precise and easy, which belongs to the expansion and development of the telescope.

Lu Su soon rushed to the old city on horseback, and he also showed the excitement he hadn't seen for a long time when he saw Long Xiang.

The two returned to Xiaowei's mansion hand in hand from the west of the city, and then they huddled in the main hall to discuss the addition of semaphores, which can also be said to be the code words of flags in Hefei.

Unknowingly, the sky outside the hall gradually darkened.

Lu Su stretched his waist and stood up, picked up the silk that recorded the semaphore, and said goodbye to Long Xiang.

"The sky is coming to an end. I'll go back to the new city first, and I'll come back to study tomorrow if I don't have anything to do. I believe that after two days of discussion, a set of simple communication semaphores can be completed. At that time, the two cities will be much more convenient."

Long Xiang nodded and waved: "Alright, I'll send Zijing out of the city."

After hearing this, Lu Su quickly refused:

"Let's just walk to the gate of the mansion. There is another happy event at Yun Qi's house, so I'd better spend more time with the two wives."

"Haha, same joy, same joy"

Long Xiang was 'driven' to the front yard by his two wives. At this time, he was embarrassed to complain to Lu Su, so he changed the subject: "Recently let Zijing go to sit in the new city, the old lady and sister-in-law won't blame me, right?"

After Hua Tuo came to Hefei to take root, he concentrated on taking care of Lu Su's body and finally made Lu Su bear fruit in late March. Now Lu's wife is exactly two months pregnant.

In history, Lu Su gave birth to children very late. It was not until the year of his death at the age of 45 (217) that his wives and concubines left a posthumous child.

The appearance of Long Xiang changed the fate of Lu Su, and also changed the fate of the Lu family because of such "good deeds", at least it will be more prosperous in terms of incense.

"Blame you?"

After hearing this, Lu Su directly raised his hand, and replied very grandly: "My mother and wife regard you as a benefactor. Mr. Hua specially asked his wife to be in poor health. She should not be tired or have intercourse during pregnancy. Now I go home and even the master bedroom is too small I can't get in, my mother can't wait for my wife to give birth before letting me go back, so it's appropriate to go to Xincheng to sit in town."

"It turned out to be like this, but I was abrupt"

Although Long Xiang was apologetic, in his heart he lamented that he was also a fallen man.

Lu Su and Long Xiang have known each other for several years, and now they have no reservations in public or private, so even if it is a very personal topic, Lu Su does not hide it.

The two walked side by side to the gate of the mansion, talking and laughing, almost colliding with the visitor.

Lei Xu looked up and saw that it was Long Xiang and Lu Su, so he hurriedly cupped his fists to apologize:
"General, Mr. Zijing, the last general left in a hurry just now and didn't pay attention."

Long Xiang interrupted before he finished speaking:
"There's no need to explain, let alone apologize, and we didn't pay attention to avoiding it. While Zijing is here, tell us about Zhang Liao."

"Uh-huh."

Lei Xu nodded straightly in response, and then summarized and reported the results of the day's surveillance: "My personal soldiers found Zhang Liao's behavior was very strange after a day's inspection. The side of the camp facing Hefei didn’t pay much attention, and almost all the reconnaissance and patrols were in the rear.”

Lu Su frowned and thought for a while, then said seriously to Long Xiang: "Zhang Liao's behavior is too abnormal. It is obvious that he is guarding against Sun Quan in Chaohu Lake. This matter may be related to Cao Cao's actions in the north. With the help of the telescope, we should be able to obtain key information."

"Five groups of scouts?"

Long Xiang thought he had heard it wrong, the cavalry battalion was allocated five telescopes, and it was supposed to be enough to send five people, but the group was a quantifier.

"That's right, there are indeed five groups, and each group has five riders."

Lu Su first gave the conclusion and then explained: "The telescope is so precious, and there is a risk of losing it by one person. I propose to carry out the task in groups. Five people can not only ensure safety, but also extend the observation time by changing shifts. , if you get urgent information, you can send someone back to report in advance."

"Okay, very good, very good."

Long Xiang expressed his excitement by saying three good things in a row.

It turned out that the good old man on TV had such profound insights into the military.

That's great, my Commander-in-Chief.
