Chapter 652: Espionage
After the two returned to the big tent, Song Xinshu explained to Su Qing clearly the process of making gunpowder.
The more Su Qing listened, the more frightened he felt, Song Xinshu's ability was really incredible, if this thing could be produced, they wouldn't have to worry about it when they fought in the future.
"Xinshu, can you tell me where you learned all this? Why haven't I ever heard you talk about it? Su Qing asked with a curious expression.
Song Xinshu was a little weak-hearted, he couldn't say that he learned it in a modern chemistry class, and said, "Didn't I say it that day?" After you left, whenever I was free, I would find some books, and these are what I learned from those books! ”
Su Qing had doubts in his heart, but since Song Xinshu was unwilling to say more, there was no need for him to break the casserole and ask to the end.
He took Song Xinshu's hand and sat down to the side, handed her a glass of water, and said, "Lady, Zhou Munan came to me today and told me something about what happened in Jinling City. You have obviously suffered a lot of grievances, why did you never tell me? Su Qing's face was a little painful.
Song Xinshu secretly blamed Zhou Munan for his big mouth, she deliberately concealed these things from Su Qing, and now he himself is busy here, and there is really no need for him to use his little things to add to his troubles.
What's more, she has always pursued the principle of having enough food and clothing by herself, and since those people have the courage to provoke him, they must be prepared to be retaliated by her.
At the moment, her business here is not over, and when it is over, she will go to clean up those who are playing tricks behind her back.
"Husband, I didn't mean it. Don't worry, I'll be able to handle those things, and there won't be any problems. Besides, isn't there a godfather and godmother who protect me, and nothing will happen. But you here, you have to be careful and careful, things on this battlefield are no joke! I'm still waiting for you to go back and be reunited. ”
"Daddy has asked about you several times, and I don't know how to hide it, so you must go back safely!" Song Xinshu held Su Qing's hand and said.
Su Qing didn't hold back the emotions in her heart for a while, got up and hugged Song Xinshu tightly in her arms, "Xinshu, it's me who is sorry for you." It's me who wronged you, and I'm really sorry that I can't be by your side when you need me the most! ”
Song Xinshu was almost out of breath by him, but he still hugged him tightly, I don't know how many times I have dreamed of such a scene in my dreams, every time I wake up, my tears wet the pillow, and now I can be regarded as hugging a living person.
"Su Qing, I have never regretted marrying you, and being able to marry you is the luckiest thing in my life. I will definitely guard our home and wait for the day when you return victoriously! ”
The two hugged each other tightly, and even if they didn't say anything, they could feel the warm atmosphere.
However, there will always be some ignorant people who want to break such a scene, and a rough voice came from outside the door, "General, the brothers have been gathered, and they are waiting for you alone!" ”
Song Xinshu was afraid that the person would break in, so he hurriedly pushed Su Qing away.
As long as people see the two of them in the big tent in broad daylight, I don't know what they will think.
Su Qing looked at Song Xinshu with some reluctance, this opportunity to get together was rare, he really didn't want to leave her every minute, "Xinshu, I really don't want to go, I ......"
Song Xinshu was a little helpless, this man is really getting more and more coquettish, "You better go quickly, I won't walk around." When you come back at noon, you'll be able to eat the food I cooked for you! ”
"Okay, you stay here obediently, don't walk around. If there is anything, let Zhou Munan help you do it, and his identity should be more convenient. When you're done with today, I'll take you around the nearby town tomorrow! Su Qing said.
Song Xinshu sent him away with a smile, and only turned around and went back to the big tent when he couldn't see his back, looking at the empty tent, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
Everywhere she looked, there were nothing particularly simple, and her eyes suddenly fell on the rack where Su Qing hung his clothes, and there seemed to be some clothes hanging there.
Anyway, she is idle here, so she might as well see if there is anything she can help with.
She picked up the clothes on the shelf and prepared to wash them, but who knew that something would fall out of it.
Song Xinshu picked up the thing on the ground and looked at it, and couldn't help but feel a little disgusted, this thing was already in tatters, just because it could be vaguely seen that it was a purse, and I didn't know which girl gave it to Su Qing, so that he could take it to heart so much that she even had to bring it when she was fighting, so she wouldn't admit that she was just jealous.
However, she always felt that the sincerity of the purse looked a little familiar, and when she opened it, she saw that it was a talisman that had long been blurred, and she suddenly remembered that before he left, she had gone to ask him for a talisman.
At that time, in order to worry that he would lose it, he sewed a purse for him overnight, but his needlework was really miserable, and the pattern sewing was twisted and crooked.
Song Xinshu still remembers Su Qing's expression when he got the purse, he thought that he had already thrown away such an ugly thing, but he didn't expect him to carry it with him all the time.
She took out the sewing kit she had with her, and went to find a more suitable piece of fabric, ready to give him a new purse.
Since he was disgusted by that time, he has been a female worker who has worked hard for a while, although he has not made much progress, but it should be more than enough to sew a purse.
On the other side, Su Qing took his own people to explore the terrain and prepare for the upcoming big battle.
The things developed by Song Xinshu have already spread throughout the military camp, some people think that Song Xinshu is ingenious, and of course some people scoff at her.
In their inherent mode of thinking, women should honestly teach their husbands and children at home, and don't come out to show their faces if they have nothing to do, but Song Xinshu is really a bold person, and he dared to come to the barracks.
Most of them can tolerate this, but she is a woman who meddles in military deliberations, which makes them very unhappy.
"General, is that thing made by Madame really that powerful? If the sneak attack is not successful, we will lose the opportunity, and I am afraid that it will be ...... then," one of them said uncertainly.
Su Qing has always believed in Song Xinshu very much, and since she said okay, there must be no problem. Even if something really happened, he still had a back hand to prepare.
"Don't worry, there will be no problem. We came out today to deliberately survey the terrain and find the best location for gunpowder. Then think about how to lure the people of the Ningqi tribe into the game at that time! They had killed so many of our brothers before, and this time I'm going to let him never return! ”
The leader of the Ningqi tribe was convening his generals to discuss the matter, and the tug-of-war between them and Su Qing had been going on for a long time, and the military deployment of the two sides was mostly evenly matched, so no one dared to take the lead in attacking.
But if things continue to stalemate like this, it won't be a good thing for them.
Now that they are short of food and grass, and after winter, there is no food to harvest in the tribe, and now it is a fool's dream to expect the Great Khan to bring them grain and grass.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the day before yesterday, we attacked Su Qing's camp, and although we gained something, we also lost a lot of people. If this continues, the situation will be very unfavorable for us! Therefore, Ben Shuai decided to cut through the chaos quickly and take Su Qing's territory at all costs! I came to you today to discuss this matter with you, and if you have any good ideas, just say it! ”
The people below, you look at me, I look at you.
But no one opened their mouths to say a word!
They actually knew very well in their hearts that if it weren't for Su Qing's relaxed vigilance in the sneak attack the day before yesterday, then they would not have succeeded at all.
His own marshal still wants to annihilate others in one fell swoop, which is simply a dream.
Those colleagues of theirs no longer knew how many people had suffered at Su Qing's hands, and even lost their lives.
If they had known that the other party was Su Qing from the beginning, they might not have led their troops to come to support, and now they didn't dare to take the risk easily!
Seeing that none of the people below spoke, the leader was so angry that his face turned white, "You cowards and two, aren't you quite arrogant on weekdays?" said that he wanted to make a contribution to the Great Khan, why didn't he say anything now? ”
"Handsome, Su Qing has always been cunning and treacherous, and his methods are endless, and we have suffered a lot of losses in his hands. The subordinates think that the best way now is to defend the city, and when Su Qing and their food and grass are cut off, they will be annihilated in one fell swoop! One of them spoke cautiously, and immediately lowered his head after speaking, for fear that the man sitting in the first place would be angry.
"Do the rest of you think the same way he does?" The leader asked.
Everyone lowered their heads and said in unison: "Everything depends on the orders of the marshal, and the subordinates are willing to smear the liver and brain of the marshal, and then die!" ”
The man picked up the teacup he had in hand and threw it on the ground, "Get out of here, I don't know what the use of the Great Khan to raise you bunch of waste!" ”
Naturally, those people fled in the wilderness, and before long the whole tent would be empty!
The more the leader thought about it, the more angry he became, and he threw several more things.
"Dark one, how did Ben Shuai ask you to investigate? What is the origin of that man? When did you get to Su Qing's side? ”
He remembered the events of that night vividly, and he was about to break through Su Qing's southwest defense line, but he didn't expect to kill Cheng Cheng on the way, making him fall short!
