Chapter 607: A Lot of Gunpowder

If it was like what His Majesty Li Er said, leading a part of the front army, Xuan Shijing would not dare to take this stall, it was too big, there were more than 30,000 troops outside Liaodong City, and the 60,000 guard army was divided into three parts, Zhang Jian's 10,000 people, Li Ji's 20,000 people, and His Majesty Li Er's side, there were 30,000, just the front army, there were more than 7,000.

He has a few catties and a few taels, Xuan Shijing can weigh and understand, finding a group of subordinates who are not convinced by him is not as comfortable as these three hundred 'pro-soldiers', and Xuan Shijing has no time to spend energy to convince those former soldiers to convince him.

With His Majesty Li Er's edict, Xuan Shijing went to the logistics camp of the army, the gunpowder was stored very tightly, if there was no edict from His Majesty Li Er, no one could be mobilized, Xuan Shijing wanted not a small amount, six hundred catties, and if he took three hundred people out, he would have to bring two catties on each person.

It's evenly distributed on everyone, in fact, it can't be seen much......

When he arrived in the logistics barracks, Xuan Shijing went directly to Changsun Chong's tent, Changsun Chong benefited from Changsun Wuji and found such a good position in the army, and even Fang Yiai worked under him, naturally, Fang Yiai's position was also sought by Fang Xuanling.

The elders of the two families had surprisingly the same idea, they didn't let their sons go into battle to fight, and they came to Liaodong for a trip, just to get some qualifications, according to their identity, even if they didn't kill an enemy on the battlefield, they would not be left behind when the credit was shared in the end.

That's identity, and there's nothing unfair in their eyes.

In the tent, Changsun Chong heard the movement, raised his head, and just saw Xuan Shijing coming in.

"Yo, Dongshan Hou, rare guest, I heard that His Majesty sent Hou Ye to this camp outside Liaodong City, and Hou Ye came really fast." The eldest grandson rushed to his feet and greeted Xuan Shijing with a smile.

"Your Majesty has an order, as a courtier, naturally don't dare to slack off, the conditions of the vanguard army are difficult, and they are not as comfortable as the camp of the rear guard, there is such an opportunity in front of you, so you naturally have to come over quickly." Hyun Shijing responded with a smile.

Hearing what Xuan Shijing said, Changsun Chong could only smile awkwardly, and then asked Xuan Shijing to sit down, and he returned to his seat.

After the hypocritical politeness of the two, they have to talk about serious things.

"Hou Ye will go to the logistics army when he arrives in Liaodong City, but is it important?" The eldest grandson Chong asked, then smiled and said, "Or, is it here to find the second son?" ā€

Xuan Shijing shook his head: "Second Brother Fang, I want to see me, put this matter aside for the time being, let's get down to business first, this time I came to the logistics army to get gunpowder on the orders of His Majesty." Xuan Shijing said, stood up, and handed the hand of His Majesty Li Er in his hand to Changsun Chong.

"Take gunpowder?" The eldest grandson was stunned, as soon as this Xuan Shijing came, His Majesty actually transferred the gunpowder that had been reluctant to move for many days to Xuan Shijing.

When Changsun Chong opened His Majesty Li Er's handwritten edict and finished reading it, he was even more surprised in his heart.

Six hundred catties is really not a small amount compared to the amount of gunpowder stored by the logistics army now.

The measure word "jin" also spread in the army along with gunpowder, and Xuan Shijing always felt that the word "stone" to describe those bulk gunpowder was unspeakable.

The capacity of one stone in Datang is about one hundred and twenty catties, and gunpowder can be regarded as a fine thing, so it is natural to use relatively fine quantifiers to ration.

"Six hundred pounds?" Eldest Sun Chong couldn't help but wonder: "Why are there so many?" ā€

"This is Your Majesty's will, as for why Your Majesty will allocate so much, it is a secret for the time being, without Your Majesty's will, I can't say anything casually." Xuan Shijing said with a smile.

Knowing that the eldest grandson's family has always been bad and kind to him, when he talks to them, he has to say three points and leave seven points, and try to say as little as possible, and give too much news to those who want to covet him, which is not good for himself.

"In that case, Master Hou, please come with me." Changsun Chong said.

Xuan Shijing nodded, then got up and followed the eldest grandson out of the tent.

The place where the gunpowder is stored is guarded very strictly, and the Xuanjia Army under Li Ke has sent special people to guard it in shifts to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

If so much gunpowder sees a little flame and blows up the camp, the consequences are unimaginable.

"Master Hou, did you come by yourself?" When they arrived at the place, the Xuanjia Army, which was guarding the gunpowder in the logistics, took out 600 catties of gunpowder and packed them, and placed several large boxes on the ground.

"Yes, it's Ben Hou's negligence, can the eldest grandson lend a few people to Ben Hou?" Xuan Shijing smiled and looked at Changsun Chong.

"It's naturally good to be able to help Master Hou." The eldest grandson smiled, and then beckoned to a few people in the logistics camp.

"My lord, what do you command?" Several people saw their boss waving at them and hurriedly ran over.

"Find a few people, get a car, and send these boxes to Dongshanhou's camp." Eldest Sun Chong commanded.

"Yes." The men answered, then turned and left to look for the carriage.

Xuan Shijing watched a few people leave, stood in place, looked at the eldest grandson Chong and said:

"When the matter is done, Ben Hou will not disturb the eldest grandson, Ben Hou himself is guarding here, thank you for the arrangement."

"Hahaha, Master Hou is polite." The eldest grandson smiled with a smile.

Although the two have been secretly not dealing with each other, on the surface, they still have to behave well, and so many people in the barracks are watching.

After waiting for a while, the departing logistics army led the carriage over, two people carried a box, carried six boxes to the carriage, and then followed Xuan Shijing back to the camp.

The camp where the three hundred government soldiers were stationed was at the outermost end of the entire army, after all, they came relatively late, and there was no place to accommodate them inside, but this camp was not too important to the government soldiers, that is, these six large boxes of gunpowder had to be stored well and placed in the camp, which was real explosives.

"Chang Le!" As soon as he entered the camp, Xuan Shijing shouted at the middle of the camp.

"In!" Chang Le responded, and then ran to Xuan Shijing.

"Fifty people are divided, and the good students take care of these gunpowders, six hundred catties, and there must be no mistakes!" Xuan Shijing said: "No one can move without my order!" Your Majesty can't move when he comes! Shift guards. ā€

"Yes!" Chang Le responded.

Seeing that Chang Le turned around and was about to leave, Xuan Shijing grabbed Chang Le: "Don't worry, I haven't finished talking yet, let's go out in a while, go to Liaodong City to have a look, Your Majesty has given a new task." ā€

"Let's ...... Two? Chang Le was surprised.
