Chapter 037: A Group of Elm Heads

Since beating Chen Youliang Chen Bing outside the city, Ma Du has not slept well for a day, usually taking care of the wounded soldiers is very hard, today and moved most of the bricks for a long time, although happy but also very tired. In order to snipe Chen Youliang, he tensed his nerves for more than half an hour, and after a shot was fired, he was no longer able to support it, and he fainted.

When Ma Du woke up, he found that he had returned to the small courtyard where he had lived before, and his whole body was sore, as if he had fallen apart, and his mouth was bitter and he spit out a small grass stalk. He was about to get out of bed to find something to eat, only to find that there was a person lying under the bed, it was Zhu Wenying, who was sleeping with his mouth open, and he seemed to be tired.

As soon as I got out of the house, I smelled a strong smell of Chinese medicine, and Xu Daliang was pouting his ass in the yard to boil medicine. As soon as he saw Ma Du, he exclaimed, "My lord, why are you up, hurry into the house and rest." ”

Ma Du waved his hand, "I'm fine, I'm just hungry, find something to eat." ”

Xu Daliang shouted, Zhang Wuliu and Lao Liu also came out of the kitchen, and the three of them simply carried Ma Du back to the house, making tea and serving rice. Zhang Wuliu was even more guilty with a bitter face, "It's all small ones, you shouldn't let adults move bricks to play, if adults are tired, the small ones will die and die."

"You said that you were moving bricks to play, how can you be tired, can you let go of my legs, I want to go out for a walk!" Ma Du sat on the chair, but his legs were hugged tightly, and he couldn't shake it.

Zhu Wenying didn't know when she woke up, and stood aside with her arms in her arms, "Don't go out, this doctor said you need to recuperate, just stay in the house, if you have a good one, I can't explain it to my mother." ”

It's not the first time he's heard Zhu Wenying say this kind of thing, he still can't figure out what he has to do with Ma Dajia, and he must find a suitable opportunity to ask clearly.

"My lord, you really need to recuperate, these days are too hard, leave the matter of the wounded barracks to the villain." Xu Daliang smiled and brought a bowl of decoction and medicine, "Adults first, drink this medicine, the villain uses all the best tonics, ginseng, deer antler, Zihe car ......"

"I'm not sick, I don't drink!" Quack doctors, they are not afraid of getting hot when they eat these fierce medicines on a hot day, and the ginseng and deer antler velvet are just fine, and they are also purple river cars, and if they change their names, they will be treated as Lao Tzu I don't know what it is.

Xu Daliang had no choice but to look at Zhu Wenying for help. Zhu Wenying was not so polite, he broke Ma Du's mouth when he came up, there was Zhang Wuliu holding his legs below, Lao Liu pressing his hands in the middle, and Zhu Wenying breaking his mouth above, it was difficult for Ma Du to move for half a minute.

Xu Daliang smiled bitterly: "The adults are offended, the things ordered by the governor of the capital, the villain must do a good job, I heard this morning that he cut off dozens of heads in front of the mansion, you can forgive the little one, these are all good medicinal materials that the little one has treasured for half a lifetime." ”

Damn, Ma Du scolded in his heart, I didn't expect that this was still a medicinal herb that had been put for decades, and he dared to take it out for Lao Tzu to eat, if he really ate it, Zhu Wenzheng would not be finished with you.

Ma Du was powerless to resist in the face of violence, and the bowl of medicine that didn't know if the raw materials were moldy or bad finally entered his stomach, although there was no discomfort, but Ma Du always felt diaphragm.

He found a corner and wanted to take out the medicine, but Zhu Wenying appeared in time, "If you dare to spit it out, I will pour you another bowl." ”

Well, Madu surrendered, and he changed the subject to prevent himself from thinking about this diaphragm again, "How is it?" Is Chen Youliang dead? ”

Zhu Wenying scratched his head, "It should be dead, I saw him fall from the chariot with my own eyes that day, and later saw that you passed out, so I brought you back, and I never went out." If you want to know the details, you have to wait two days, scratch your tongue and ask. ”

"You mean to say that Chen Youliang's army hasn't withdrawn yet?"

Zhu Wenying shook his head, "Definitely not, if you withdraw, the movement will definitely not be small." Brother Wen Zheng came to see you in the second half of the night last night and left in a hurry, saying that he would come over at noon today, you can ask him. ”

"What do you want to ask me?" The two were talking, Zhu Wenzheng and Deng Yu walked over.

"Brother Wen Zheng!" 、

"The Grand Duke!"

"Why is it that Mr. got up, he should recuperate when he is sick."

"I'm not sick!" Ma Du emphasized heavily, thinking of the culprit who caused him to eat the decoction, he felt unhappy, "I'm really not sick, don't let that quack doctor cook the decoction for me anymore." ”

"That's right, the quack's medical skills can't be compared with Mr. Although the gentleman prescribes his own prescriptions, he will go to the treasury of the Grand Governor to get any medicinal materials he needs. We are all our own family, don't be polite! Haha......"

Come back to the close, who is your own family!

Speaking of yesterday's battle situation, the two killers suddenly danced with eyebrows, gushing, last night after Ma Du sent that shot, the Han army quickly became chaotic, Deng Yu and Zhu Wenzheng killed separately, and chased from the city wall to the lake, killing countless drowned people.

"They haven't withdrawn yet? The Han armies of the other sects are also there? Ma Du frowned, "So Chen Youliang is not dead yet?" ”

Zhu Wenzheng and Deng Yu also nodded in agreement, "At least he is injured, just planting it from the chariot is enough for him, and I will ask the scout to scratch his tongue and ask about the situation in the past two days." Anyway, he won't attack again for a while, and we can drag on for a few more days, and we can finally catch our breath. ”

"Yes! I can finally catch my breath. Deng Yu's face was a little pale, it seems that he did lose a lot of blood yesterday, Xu Daliang's prescription for him is quite suitable, "This time thanks to Mr. 's action, I heard that Mr. Chen Youliang was injured with a firearm, Deng has also studied firearms, but he has never heard of such a firearm, can you let Deng have a long experience." ”

"Little thing, what about my family?" Ma Du looked up and asked Zhu Wenying, he didn't see the rifle since he got up today, he was the only one by his side yesterday, and he must have taken it.

"Such an important treasure, of course you can't just put it away, it's not good to lose it with a lot of people on your side, I'll keep it for you, don't worry, I can't lose it, we're all our own family, I can still lie to you!" Zhu Wenying patted her chest and promised.

The ghost only believes you, last time he said that he would help me keep the medicine, but he is gone, and if he dies on the battlefield, there is really nowhere to find it.

After being kicked by Zhu Wenzheng, Zhu Wenying took the gun stupidly, what Ma Du didn't expect was that the gun was hidden in the cellar under the stove, and even the medicine was hidden there, no wonder he told himself many times not to burrow in the ground.

Seeing that the packaging of the medicine is in good condition, it should not be broken, fortunately Lao Liu dug deep enough, otherwise it is difficult to say that it will not deteriorate at high temperatures.

After listening to Ma Du's words, Zhu Wenying also regretted it very much, and said that next time he helped him keep things, he would definitely choose a better place.

Ma Du disassembled the rifle and explained the principle to Deng Yu one by one, looking at his blank eyes, obviously he didn't understand much, and finally Ma Du also gave them an empty pack of bullets, Deng Yu smelled the smell of gunsmoke at the muzzle and only said, "It's really a firearm!" ”

Zhu Wenzheng said with a smile: "Sir, can you get hundreds of such firearms, we can also defend the city." ”

I really dare to think a few times, I really think that Lao Tzu is a god, such a powerful national defense industrial system, so many scientific researchers, it took six or seven years to be finalized, and now I am poor and white, let Lao Tzu do anything. Ah San has been engaged in it for decades to come up with a domestic rifle that can only be fired in a single shot and cannot be fired in bursts, is the industrial technology of this era comparable to India in the 21st century?

Looking at Ma Dusheng's loveless eyes, Zhu Wenzheng knew that it was difficult for him to be strong, and Deng Yu said: "This kind of sharp weapon is not a mortal thing in the world. It is already a blessing to have one, and most of the governors do not need to force it. ”

Zhu Wenzheng nodded, "Yes, let's use a knife to kill Chen Youliang." ”

"You don't have to be discouraged, I think Deng Shenzheng's firearms battalion is very good, especially the soldiers of the firearms battalion are all elite, and if you improve the firearms, your combat effectiveness will definitely be improved.

Deng Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Now there are less than thirty percent of my firearms battalion soldiers left, more than half of the firearms are damaged, and the most important thing is that there is no gunpowder now." ”

"How come there is no gunpowder!"

"There's no saltpeter anymore!" Deng Yu spread his hands helplessly, "There was still some saltpeter in the warehouse, if it was only for firearms, it would be enough, but after it was used to make thunderbolts, it was consumed too much, and now there is not much left." ”

"Oh." Ma Du remembered that Zhu Wenying seemed to have told him about this, "If you don't have saltpeter, don't say it earlier, leave this matter to me." ”

"You can get saltpeter!"

Zhu Wenying said: "Don't be reckless, a radius of ten miles is under Chen Youliang's control, and it is difficult to get out, let alone get saltpeter in." ”

"Whoever said he was going out of the city, there is one in the city, and it is guaranteed to be purer than the saltpeter you used before. When the time comes, recruit another three or five thousand young people, and it shouldn't be a problem to stick to it. Ma Du felt that it would be difficult for Chen Youliang to launch an offensive like Fuzhou Gate again, after all, he wanted to preserve his strength and fight with Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Wenzheng coughed violently, "Don't dream, it's still three or five thousand young and strong, I'm afraid I won't be able to recruit one." "It turned out that he had put up a notice this morning to recruit soldiers, but none of them came.

Madu asked, "You didn't do what I said?" ”

"Why not, isn't it nice to the people and say something bad about Chen Youliang? I did what you said. ”

"And how do you do that?"

Zhu Wenzheng pinched his chin, "I have exempted the whole city from the poll tax for one year, and whoever wants to come over to be a soldier will first give ten taels of silver for settling-in allowance, and if he dies in battle, he will also be given a pension of ten taels of silver." ”

I rub! As soon as you came up, you killed others in battle, who still did it with you, is it too long? He patiently continued to ask, "Then how did you say bad things about Chen Youliang?" ”

"Well, I asked the staff to sort out Chen Youliang's twenty-three major crimes, from his murder of the monarch to the forcible acceptance of his subordinates' wives and concubines, one by one!"

Ma Du can't wait to grab the ground with his head, it's really a group of elm heads, he won't win people's hearts, and he won't even say bad things about people!
