Chapter 330: Awl Stick
The saint was crowned an official, Chen Chunhua should not, according to Chen Chunhua's words, he rewarded the people who pacified the civil strife this time with 50,000 taels of silver!
Fifty thousand taels, counting, nearly six thousand people this time, Chen Chunhua thanked Long En for everyone, received a silver reward, and after some calculations, nearly six thousand people can share the silver money, less than ten taels!
After all, there is a silver money to take, and then, Lin Qi sealed the official seven grades, Zhang Liang made a contribution to quelling the civil strife this time, restored his official position, added merit to the knighthood, and became a five-grade official!
And the eldest and the second and third are even more heroes in this matter, even Chen Chunhua did not respond, they will not respond, although the second brother is not as thinking as Chen Chunhua and them, but they also know that they are an authentic farmer, if they enter the court, above the court, the same reason as doing business is not, he thinks to himself, as an official, it is better to do some small business to support his own mouth, and he is also happy!
The second child didn't dare to think about being an official when he looked back, and when he looked at those who were officials, he didn't have this idea!
Chen Chunhua and the others were not in a hurry to leave the capital, the prince was captured, on the top of the main hall, by the saint himself, plotting to usurp the throne, colluding with other countries, imprisoned, and beheaded three days later!
Not only the prince, together with the court, a cadre of officials who colluded with the prince, dismissed the officials, and raided the house, a few days later, the capital was finally happy, although the civil strife was calmed down, and the soldiers and horses of the Great River Country were already pressing, Xu Zi and Yu Tian lost the border pass and retreated ten miles!
As soon as the news came, the court was like fire and water, and the fire was blazing. But no one could make any proposals!
The saint was in a hurry, the dragon was sick, and he was bedridden for several days!
"I've seen the daughter of Chunnong!" Chen Chunhua looked at Zhou Tianmiao and hurriedly came over, stood up and said. "Lord Zhou, don't be polite, you came here this time, but there is something wrong?"
"Don't hide the daughter of Chunnong, the border pass is lost, General Xu and General Yu have led the soldiers and horses to retreat, and our country's soldiers and horses are insufficient to fight against the Great River Country. At this time, there is no other way in the court! ”
Listened to Zhou Tianmiao's words. Chen Chunhua frowned and said. "What do you mean by Lord Zhou, do you want me to think of a way?"
"Exactly, it would be rude to know that. But there was no way. Here's how. I want to know what the daughter of Chunnong has in mind! Zhou Tianmiao looked at Chen Chunhua like this, as if Chen Chunhua must have a way to do this!
Where did Chen Chunhua come from, she is to calm down the civil strife. still relied on everyone to catch the prince off guard, the soldiers and horses of this Dajiang country are not 120,000, where can she resist these thousands of people!
Such a method of hitting a stone with an egg will definitely not work, but she is also worried, this Dajiang country is obviously colluding with the prince to help the prince ascend the throne, but the prince has forgotten that once this Dajiang country sends troops, how will it make wedding dresses for others?
Presumably, this point, the prince should be thinking, but he was lost in the throne, Chen Chunhua is more worried about Xu Zi, if the Great River Kingdom attacks in, Xu Zi and others are lost, then they are the first to have an accident, once the Great River Kingdom enters the Chaoyang Kingdom, the people of the Chaoyang Kingdom are really caught in the fire and water!
"Lord Zhou, let me think about this matter, for a while, I can't do it!"
Zhou Tianmiao nodded and said. "Now that our country is short of soldiers and horses, if you want to defeat the Great River Country, you must have enough soldiers and horses!"
"Speaking of which, the main thing is this soldier and horse!" Chen Chunhua also thinks that there is a shortage of soldiers and horses, and if she wants to recruit troops and buy horses now, I'm afraid she won't be able to catch up! "Lord Zhou, it's better to go down first and recruit troops, no matter how much, there will always be something!"
"An order has been sent to recruit troops, and many people in Chaoyang have rushed to the north, and they want to rush over from the north, not to mention that it will take more than ten days!" Zhou Tianmiao calculated, ten days and a half months, I don't know if Xu Zi can still support it?
Chen Chunhua and Zhou Tianmiao discussed for a while, and Zhou Tianmiao was in a hurry to leave, the eldest and the third were practicing their fists and feet with everyone in the venue!
When the eldest and third came back, Chen Chunhua informed them of the border pass and said. "Big brother, what do you think about this?"
"Daughter-in-law, according to what you said, this pass is lost, once Xu Zi and the others retreat, Dajiang Guo will definitely work harder, if it doesn't work, we will take the big guy to join Xu Zi and them!" Although the boss has never led troops to fight, he thinks to himself, this is similar to doing business and doing busy work on weekdays!
Chen Chunhua nodded, thought about it, and said. "Big brother, we are in Chaoyang Kingdom, but we have bows and arrows?"
"Bows and arrows? What is a bow and arrow? The boss shook his head, he had never heard anyone talk about this bow and arrow, and what Chen Chunhua was thinking about was the bow and arrow, there was a shortage of manpower, if he used a bow and arrow, he would have this chance of winning!
"Haven't you heard anyone talk about bows and arrows?" Since I heard someone say it tomorrow, that is, there is no bow and arrow, I thought about it and said. "How did you go back up the mountains to hunt game?"
"Let's use awl sticks and iron mounds, or else we will dig a pit and throw something into it!"
Chen Chunhua had never seen the boss hunt game, and he didn't know what it was, after hearing this, Chen Chunhua also had an idea, except for this bow and arrow, and the catapult, this catapult, but it is the oldest weapon!
"I'm thinking about it, big brother, you go up to the venue and ask, see how many people know how to carpentry!" After Chen Chunhua finished speaking, she called the mother-in-law who was waiting outside to come in and said. "Go get a pen and paper!"
In response to Chen Chunhua's words, the boss hurried to the venue, and the mother-in-law also took the pen and paper, Chen Chunhua drew the bow and arrow with his hand, and drew the catapult!
Thinking that the boss can use awl sticks to beat game, if they make a batch of these awl sticks and let everyone practice their skills, it is also excellent to go to the border to defend the city!
The boss went to the venue and asked, there are not a few people who know carpentry!
"Daughter-in-law, you know a lot of carpentry, what are you going to do?" The eldest and third looked at the drawings on the table and couldn't help but be surprised. "Daughter-in-law, could it be that this is the bow and arrow you just talked about?"
Chen Chunhua nodded and said. "Big brother, third brother, don't you two know how to hunt game, I just think that the awl stick you use, if it is used to defend the city, wouldn't it be excellent?"
"Defending the city?"
"Defending the city, the people who are guarding the city wall, the Great River Kingdom is attacking, but it is not condescending, in this way, if you use this awl stick, it is easy to hurt those people!"
The eldest and third nodded and said. "Daughter-in-law, this method can be done, we feel good, using an awl stick to beat game, this is also a laborious one, you have to have an eye, if this is used to beat people, people are so big, and it is not a big mess to let you fight, it is easier, I am afraid that if this is used to beat people, it will be more difficult!"
"I also know this, big brother, you go and talk to the second child, let everyone stay these days, so that you can practice your arm strength, otherwise it won't work!"
"Alas, yes!"
"Besides, go and inform Lord Zhou, let him hire more blacksmiths, busy with the things I painted, and let everyone practice, now that the time is tight, I don't know what Xu Zi will do when he gets it!"
As soon as he planned these things, the saints in the capital ordered to repair a venue, so that the soldiers and horses in the capital could also practice together!
Zhou Tianmiao was born as a military general, and then became the prime minister's protégé, and he made a lot of achievements, and the soldiers and horses in the capital were also under his control!
Seeing that Chen Chunhua practiced with this method, it was very possible, so I discussed it with Chen Chunhua, and the boss led the practice together!
These soldiers and horses are different from Chen Chunhua's others, after all, they are all veterans, they have been practicing for a long time, and they can get started faster!
A few days later, Chen Chunhua asked for a batch of awl sticks, this awl stick is not difficult to make, one of the troublesome is the awl, this awl is made of iron, compared to the iron gun head on the battlefield, it is somewhat similar, but different!
On the tenth day, the border pass was urgent, the grain and grass were insufficient, and the border pass of our country was completely lost, and the troops retreated to Ancheng!
This matter is urgent to go to the court, the saint is unwell, it is not easy to go to the court, and the prince is in charge!
The prince is only sixteen years old, and he is still a teenager, but fortunately, there is no dispute among the ministers, and he is only anxious about the loss of this pass!
After Chen Chunhua learned about this, in desperation, she sent someone to find Baijia Baiyao, for the sake of grain and grass! Unexpectedly, Bai Yao did not respond to this matter immediately, but only wrote a letter to Chen Chunhua!
After reading the letter, Chen Chunhua suddenly realized that she had found Zhou Tianmiao!
"Lord Zhou, if you want to talk about grain and grass, I don't know how feasible it is, the prince's side concubine is Miss Qi, now the prince has been beheaded, and the prince's mansion should be distributed up and down, but this matter has not implicated the Qi family, now that our country's great enemy is current, speaking of which, the Qi family, as a business family in Chaoyang State, should make a contribution!"
Hearing Chen Chunhua's words, Zhou Tianmiao nodded, he was also worried about grain and grass before, but now the treasury is empty, if you want to send grain to the border again, you have to collect grain, and most of the people in Chaoyang Country have gone north, if you want to collect grain, you have to go north, and it will be at least more than half a month to come and go!
"I'm going to go to Qi's house now!" After Zhou Tianmiao finished speaking, he drove out of the Qi family in a hurry, and he couldn't wait for half a moment!
The Qi family has stabilized this foothold in Chaoyang Kingdom, and it was also because of the ancestors of the Qi family before, and they relied on the prince later, but now that the prince is gone, can they still live happily like back?
Naturally, the prince rebelled, and the money for recruiting troops and buying horses was also a member of the Qi family, Chen Chunhua thought of this, and had to say that the saint today has a long-term view, and the saint must know about this matter, but he left the Qi family, for this is just that!
Chen Chunhua was right, the relationship between the Qi family and the prince secretly made a lot of efforts, and after the prince was beheaded, the Qi family was uneasy, but they wanted to flee to neighboring countries, and on the night when the prince was arrested and Chen Chunhua led people to sneak attack, the entire Qi Mansion had already been guarded by the Holy Lord's order, which could not be escaped!
