Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Return

The desert is lonely, and the sun sets over the long river. The border city has always been desolate and lonely, like wild cursive script, rough freehand painting, compared with those polite regular script, even the feather texture is painted with fine brushwork, showing the beauty of another style. In the twilight, it was just that this picture should have been quiet and lonely, but the walls of the city were crowded with people. The noisy sound broke this lonely scene, and added a bit of fireworks to this loneliness for no reason.

"What is this?" someone touched the iron pipe, "how much scrap of iron is this!" "No, wouldn't it be much better to make guns and swords?

They all wore helmets on their heads and armor on their bodies, and they were clearly soldiers defending the city.

"Go, go, go, don't mess around!" the team leader waved his hand to drive the two hairy people away from the thing, "Don't touch it casually, this is distributed from above, if it is broken, your whole family will not be able to pay for killing you!"

The two people who were driven away by the team leader sneered: "This iron bump-like thing, if it is really damaged by us, then we will be Lu Bu in the Three Kingdoms!" "I'm still Lu Bu!" The team leader rolled his eyes, "You two are at most the Li ghosts in the Water Margin!"

"Who is Ghost Li?" "Oh, the one who pretended to be Li Kui was cut down by Li Kui. "The squad leader said this well, you are a ghost at most!" The soldiers who surrounded him also quipped.

Seeing that everyone said this, the faces of the two people were a little unbearable, and a tall one quickly changed the subject: "Boss, why don't you have this thing yet? It's okay, how can you move him to the city wall!" and then slapped the cannon barrel.

"Little bunny, you give me another pat on the back!" the team leader glared, and the tall man followed, and immediately put his hand behind his back. The squad leader took out a cigarette gun, knocked on the cigarette pouch, and immediately someone came up and lit the cigarette for him with a fire breaker. Seeing that the eyes of the people around him turned to him, the team leader knocked on the cigarette stick and said: "To tell the truth, this is sent from above, I heard that there are quite a lot of them, and we have also got some of this city tower, I heard that the adults above went to ask for it personally, and the price is not low!"

"And what the hell is this thing capable of?" the tall man immediately asked. The captain of the squad was about to smoke a smoking gun, but the tall man was scared, and he hid directly behind the crowd, making everyone laugh, and the tall man also touched his nose and stood on the outside. The team leader took a puff of cigarette, then spat out a smoke ring: "You know something! Do you know the power of these things, they can blow up mountains!"

"Boss, you're joking! It's still blowing up the mountain, it's not a thunderbolt mother, it's still blowing up the mountain, hahahaha!"

"But no, boss, what you said is really something, it's not that I haven't seen a firearm, and it really blew up the mountain?"

The crowd burst into laughter, but the words were less respectful.

Isn't that right, on the border, what firearms have not been seen, what firearms have not been used, those that have been blown up, those that have been wet with gunpowder, those that can't kill people after fighting for a long time, and other firearms of all kinds, none of them have ever seen them, which ones have not been injured by firearms, and even worse, it is normal to even be injured in the legs.

For them, firearms are bad when they are normal, and firearms are not normal when they are useful.

Therefore, when they heard the words of the team leader, everyone was a little disapproving, after all, in their eyes. If this thing is a firearm, it is not worth it, it is better to change to that kind of bed crossbow with infinite power, at least the attack power is very strong, and it will not easily hurt people.

After hearing that it was a firearm, almost all the people who were originally around dispersed, leaving only the team leader standing next to the barrel with a wry smile.

"Chief, you smoke here, don't worry about this artillery battle?" Some soldiers stood at a distance and asked, this happened to be the time to change the guard, there were quite a lot of people, but it was a mess, and it was really a bit noisy.

"What do you know...... "The squad leader took a few puffs of cigarettes, "this thing, there is nothing like that, the shell is just an iron frame, there is nothing to be afraid of!"

Hearing this, many people surrounded the cannon again.

"Besides, the big guys are very busy, where will they care......" The squad leader almost widened his eyes, looked at the soldiers who were originally changing guards, and fell to his knees.

Even when his boss knelt on the ground, the squad leader panicked all of a sudden, and he didn't know what to say, and shouted "See your lord!"

It's just the people who came over, but no one cares about his little captain. His position was soon taken over by some people, and the people around these people were even more difficult for the team leader to reach, and the team leader quietly stepped back and gave up his position to this group of big people.

And among the big names in the eyes of the squad leader, there is one person who is dazzling and almost attracts everyone's attention.

"This is sent by the Weapons Bureau, and it is said to be very useful, it can split mountains and rocks, and the power is infinite!" said a person next to him flatteringly. This person is the captain of the team, because he is the person who wants to stammer, the captain has seen him arrogant, but he didn't expect to see his flattery.

"Oh?" Gu Lang touched it directly, and the cold touch of the iron made the calluses on his hands very obvious. He has been in the frontier for more than ten years, and the calluses on his hands have long been as thick as the old peasants, but the old peasants are because of labor, but he is because of operating weapons.

It felt like he was stroking silk, obviously it was so beautiful to the touch, but the calloon on his hand made people can't help but wonder if his hand would break him.

Naturally, this gun carriage will not be broken, but Gu Lang's mood of suffering from gains and losses is the same as wanting to touch the beautiful silk and worrying that the silk will be broken.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is coming!

If the childhood relationship made him bury someone's shadow in his heart, and the separation of more than ten years made him almost make his thoughts into alcohol, then knowing that he was about to come to his side made someone's whole person boil.

Gu Lang began to rectify military affairs with a large amount of money, if it is said that in the court, military attaches are always inferior, then on the border, military attaches are more unscrupulous than civilian officials. In addition, the Northern Expedition is imminent, and even participating in military affairs is a very common matter. 166 Reading Network
