Chapter 463: Triumphant Return
At dawn, as soon as the gate of the village opened, Zhao Blacksmith was the first to hurry in, and when he saw King Chuang, he was very excited, and he immediately told Lu Shi in detail about the current production capacity progress of military exploits.
Since the implementation of the method of contracting out unimportant parts to the people of the old camp according to Lu Shi's intentions, the production of ordnance and equipment has been greatly improved, in addition to arranging this time to supplement the Tianxing cavalry, as well as the sabers of the cavalry of the garrison equipped with Dalang, there are 3,000 in stock, 5,000 spears, 200,000 special arrows needed for longbows, and 100 doors have been made for elm spray, all of which are arranged on the walls of the old camp. The most important thing is that the production of yams has also been in stock with the proficiency of secret craftsmen, but of course this cannot be explained in front of others.
Now Huluyu is really strong and well-equipped.
Lu Shi invited Zheng Hongda, in the Black Tiger Village, once paid him 2,000 sabers, 2,000 guns, 10,000 small agricultural machinery, and this unique herb in the north, the most important thing is to explain the drawings of this small agricultural machinery and the method of processing and subcontracting to Zheng Hongda in detail, Zheng Hongda was overjoyed at the moment, thanked him again and again, and asked to write down the words in accordance with the rules of business according to the account sharing method said in advance.
Lu Shi interrupted with a smile: "You and my brother should have been brothers to settle accounts, and there is a voucher, but you and I have this embarrassing difference after all, with words, in case there is a mistake in my cottage, which is not good for my brother, let's learn from the ancients and make a promise,"
Zheng Hongda was even more grateful at the moment, this was indeed for the sake of his own plan, so he no longer insisted on it, and he was going to leave immediately.
"Actually, my brother wants to leave a person to support him this time, go to our base market, take a look at the commercial tax and economic policies I am implementing, see if there is a lot of silver to be made there, and whether he will also open a shop there."
When Zheng Hongda heard this, he hurriedly asked Lu Shi to explain the commercial tax and the policy of stimulating the economy, and after listening to Lu Shi's explanation, he patted his thigh and praised him again and again, and ordered the housekeeper who came with him to immediately go to various places with some of his manpower to investigate, and make a decision to stop alone.
The housekeeper has also been trained with the Zheng family for many years, and as soon as Lu Shi said, he immediately knew the unlimited business opportunities here, even if he didn't run away according to Lu Shi's tax policy, the Zheng family would also make a fortune.
After sending Zheng Hongda and the others away, Lu Shi ordered to hurry up to the old camp.
As soon as he heard that Lu Shi was going back to the old camp, Wang Jian cheered, didn't talk to the teacher, and ran away without a trace.
Lu Shi escorted the seed money, with the rest of the soldiers rushed to the old camp Huluyu, for those soldiers who fought for a long time, the excitement and urgency of the members of the family were overflowing, laughter and singing along the way, Lu Shi was also very comfortable, the desire for Huluyu in his heart also spontaneously arose, the old camp has the godmother who loves him the most in the world, there are two hundred students who he loves, and he loves and loves his Chunlan sister, along the way, Everyone's face kept flashing in front of his eyes, how could he not let him return to his heart like an arrow?
But the closer he got to Huluyu, the more hesitant he became, what did he say when he saw his godmother? What do you say when you meet the students? I was in a hurry to fight this time, but what did I give as a gift when I saw Chunlan's sister? It's really homesick.
Cao Meng is not a real reckless man, he has long seen through Lu Shi's thoughts, he only cared about fighting and killing, and then he had to be valued by King Chuang, and he became the head of the garrison, and he was also busy with his feet on the ground for a day, but he was single and did not worry about anything, and he was even more excited when he was busy.
But this time Ganquan blocked the door battle, he and Yun'er were inseparable for a moment, and he really tasted the taste of missing, it was a kind of hard and unforgettable happiness torment, as long as he didn't see Yun'er for half a moment, his heart was like tens of millions of ants biting, so he had to secretly run to the women's army to see Yun'er, even if he was afraid of disturbing Yun'er's work, just take a look from afar, Yun'er is also like a heart-to-heart, you can feel your arrival, and you can always rush out when you just appeared, Sometimes it's satisfying to stand across from each other for a moment.
I have recently become a mother-in-law, and I always talk about myself and Yun'er in front of my brother, intentionally or unintentionally, and Yun'er's bits and pieces.
King Chuang is a good person, he is willing to listen to him with a smile so much, and occasionally inserts a sentence to make himself even more happy, sometimes seeing that King Chuang is too busy, and he is really aggrieved if he doesn't say it, King Chuang stretches his waist and says: "Listen to you talk about your Yun'er, and take a rest by the way." So the two of them talked about their own Yun'er, and the other chattered about his Chunlan sister, of course, no one listened to what the other party said, but it felt like it was good to say it.
Once, Cao Meng asked King Chuang if he was sick?
King Chuang nodded affirmatively: "It's sick, but this disease is incurable, only the eyes of the sweetheart can cure it, but only the surface can not go to the root." ”
The earth-shattering gongs and drums and the sound of firecrackers suddenly sounded in front, Lu Shi was startled, and a soldier of the front team ran back with a red face and said: "King Chuang, tens of thousands of people in the old camp have rushed to the Hulu River bridgehead to greet us in triumph." ”
The star monster screamed, hit the horse and ran forward, he was already annoyed by the crying and laughing of the two broken-mouthed monks, and he could just escape.
Lu Shi was just about to hit the horse to keep up, but he saw a red cloud running in the distance, Lu Shi's heart jumped, and the war horse under the crotch also seemed to feel the master's mind, and did not wait for the master to urge, and quickly greeted the red cloud, the two horses rushed together in a blink of an eye, and stopped the horse's hooves and whispered, and began to grind their ears and temples, and the two people on the horse looked at each other, constantly looking at each other, to see what was the difference between the other party and the time of breaking up, time and gongs and drums were already things in another world.
As the marching procession passed by them, they all slowed down, closed their mouths, and quietly opened a little, leaving a rare space for the beautiful people in their hearts.
Chunlan looked at Lu Shi and smiled slightly, but she didn't want to, but there were two clear springs flowing down her big eyes.
Lu Shi said softly: "What are you crying for?" Am I not very good? When he said this, his heart was soft and he lost half of his strength.
Chunlan bit her little mouth and let her tears flow happily on her face full of happy smiles.
Two happy people stood silently like this, as if time and the world did not exist.
An inopportune voice shattered the happy world of two people.
"Lu Shi, your godmother called you home for dinner" and then there was Guo Tianxing's presumptuous smile.
If gaze can kill, then Guo Tianxing has been slashed by a thousand knives n times.
Guo Tianxing was busy doing something wrong like a child, and carefully explained to his sister: "Sister, the army is gone, and everyone is waiting for the king at the bridge, can you let him go first?" ”
Lu Shi looked around, he didn't know when it was empty, and when he heard the gongs and drums in the distance, he had long since lost his voice, and he didn't know how long this stop was, so he was embarrassed and said: "I'm sorry for the Great Commander, I've kept the villagers waiting for a long time, let's hurry over." ”
"It's all your godmother who is anxious, saying that she is coming, so I have to come, or you have to stand until dark? It's really sick. ”
Chunlan immediately raised her eyebrows, waved her horsewhip and beat it, and Guo Tianxing laughed and dodged, so she rushed to Huluyu Bridge with a white, red and black fight.
On the bridge of the Hulu River, it was really crowded with people, dozens of old men and old ladies stood at the head of the bridge and waited respectfully, and when they saw Lu Shi and his party, they immediately turned around and shouted at the other end of the bridge: "Coming, coming, folks, everyone hurry up and knock up." ”
Immediately, dozens of big drums, dozens of gongs, and Shaanxi's unique suona shook the sky together, and a team of men with white cloth handkerchiefs jumped out together, lined up in front of Lu Shi's eyes, and played waist drums, the unique waist drums of Shaanxi, unrestrained, grand, warm and heroic posture, combined with the passionate drum beat, ignited the enthusiasm of the tens of thousands of people at once, look! - As soon as I beat it, I was ruthless, I forgot my feelings, and I was dead! One hundred and ten slanted drums are like a hundred and ten stones that have been struck by strong earthquakes, dancing wildly in front of you. Like a shower, it is a rapid drumbeat; Like a whirlwind, it is a flying tassel; Like a frog, it is a jumping foot; Like a spark, it is a shining pupil; Like fighting a tiger, it is a strong demeanor. On the Loess Plateau, what a magnificent, how bold, and what a fiery dance broke out Wow - Ansai waist drum! This waist drum made the cold air immediately become hot and dry, the quiet sunlight immediately became splashed, and the sleepy world immediately became excited. It reminds people: the sunset shines on the banner, and the horse is singing in the wind! It reminds people: the thunder of a thousand miles and the flash of a thousand miles! It reminds people of the great enlightenment that is obscure and clear, clear and obscure, and finally clear forever! There is no room for bondage, no fetters, no room for occlusion. It's the strength to break free, break through, and crash open!
In the earth-shattering waist drum and shouts, a very old man, trembling was supported by two descendants, stood in front of Lu Shi, who hurriedly dismounted, raised the coarse porcelain bowl in his hand, raised his head, and sang loudly to Lu Shi: "Old and decayed, on behalf of the 50,000 people of Huluyu, King He Chuang returned triumphantly, King He Chuang lived a long life, Prince He Chuang Wandai, please King Chuang drink this cup to comfort the people's affection."
Lu Shi's eyes were hot, his heart was drunk, he stepped forward slowly, trembling and took the wine bowl in the old man's hand, the heaven and the earth suddenly quieted down, and all the people were waiting for their king to speak.
This expedition did not gain anything, and it also damaged hundreds of cottage brothers, but this expedition is of great significance, this time it is not for looting, but really for survival, in order to protect tens of thousands of people from being enslaved, oppressed and slaughtered, for these tens of thousands of people to live safely, safely and happily, it is really to protect a hope, which is more important than how much money is plundered.
The people are simple, as long as you treat him a little bit, then he will contribute everything he has to you, Lu Shi is proud to be able to do so little for the people.
Lu Shi couldn't say anything, and he couldn't express his surging heart in any language, so he just took the wine bowl, raised it high, and then drank it down with tears.
The waist drum and suona played again, the celebratory waist drum team danced again, the cheers like a tide sounded again, people automatically made way for Lu Shi and Guotianxing, Lu Shi pulled up the big commander who was already choked like a child, and walked side by side to the crowd, walked to the gourd bridge, passed through the military array like a wall, and walked towards the boiling old camp of Huluyu.
All the soldiers followed closely behind their king, and marched firmly, in the direction of the peaceful, rich, and warm home that they swore to defend to the death.
