Chapter 96: Preparing for War
"Go back and tell the head of the yamen that the list will be compiled into a book before noon and sent to my home!"
Bai Muye seemed to be defeated by Huang Qingfeng all of a sudden, and gave a sharp order, beating the horse and leaving. Qiu Ning's eyes followed closely behind, but his heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
……
At noon, Bai Muye woke up in his room.
Looking at the antique bedroom in front of me, I only felt that I was in a trance in front of me, and I didn't feel really good at seeing anything.
The bed frame and window lattices are carved, the screen is dyed with ink, and the strings of tassels are embellished on the brocade curtain.
A beautifully furnished bedroom.
There was a terrible silence outside the window, and he felt as if he had been abandoned alone in a strange vacuum—so to speak...... It doesn't seem to be wrong, I was indeed abandoned by the world!
He took a deep breath, as if he was afraid of alarming someone, and spit out in small sips, until he spit out the turbid breath, and then lifted the quilt and sat up.
Wash your face, brush your teeth, and get new clothes to go out!
It's good to wash your face with water, you can brush your teeth with willow branches dipped in salt, it's really hard to get used to!
Nima – 15 minutes to brush your teeth!
Ay?
Who bought this dress? It fits perfectly!
Could it be...... Little Mimi?
Hey, hey, hey, hey-
Bai smiled: "Lang Jun! Mu Ye pulled the hem, and wanted to go out in his heart, as soon as he opened the door, he bumped into Cong Feng coming in with dishes, and when I saw him, I estimated that Lang Jun should wake up, so I brought lunch...... Yikes! Lang Jun's clothes fit perfectly! Two days ago, I saw it in the tailor's shop, and it was not said that Lang Jun must be dressed properly, but I didn't believe it at the time! ”
So Bai Muye's smile and his good mood all came to naught!
Cong Feng didn't notice the change in Bai Muye's expression at all, crossed the threshold, and while gossiping, he wiped and wiped his sleeve on the low table on the soft couch before putting the food on it.
"But if you want to say that Wei Niangzi has a high vision, Lang Jun, look at the two silver forging belts on the placket, this is what Wei Niangzi specially asked the tailor to add, and she stayed in the shop for a long time before she finished sewing!"
"Lang Jun, let's eat first!"
As soon as he raised his eyes after speaking, he saw his own Lang Jun with a strange and inexplicable smile on his face.
"How...... What's wrong? Cong Feng felt cold on the top of his head, and he didn't know what kind of illness this person was committing.
"It's okay, it's okay!" Bai Muye sat on the soft couch with his buttocks, as if floating on the clouds, "What about Wei Niangzi?" ”
Speaking of this, Cong Feng wondered: "It's strange, I saw you in the morning, and I don't know what to do, she hurried out after Lang Jun came back!" ”
Of course, Bai Muye knew what Wei Jinmi was busy with—or she wasn't busy at all, she was just deliberately avoiding herself, and she couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.
He lowered his head and touched his new clothes, and quickly rekindled his fighting spirit!
It's okay! Maybe it's because the rhythm is not right, so the girl is scared!
Be brave and brave the more you fight!
As soon as he made up his mind, he lowered his head and slammed the rice.
When Cong Feng was still there and said, "Now that the situation in the city is tense, there is nothing good to make for Lang Jun to eat, so Lang Jun will make do with a bite", when he lowered his head again, the meal in front of Bai Muye had already been eaten, but the dish did not move.
"Lang Jun, but the food is not appetizing? I'll tell you to do it again......" Cong Feng asked with some guilt.
No way? It turned out that Sister-in-law Cong did it?
Why didn't they find a cook? .
Sins, sins, sins!
Bai Muye hurriedly replied: "No, no, no, it's good, I'm used to eating rice and vegetables separately!" ”
From the sister-in-law to take care of the children and take care of the yard for herself, it is already good to be able to cook a meal for herself, how can you still pick and choose!
He picked up a bracken, looked at the enemy and put it in front of him, brewed for a long time before swallowing it in one gulp, and asked vaguely while chewing: "Brother Cong, have the craftsmen made any progress?" ”
"Old Uncle Qin...... Oh, it's that old Qin carpenter, don't say it! His craftsmanship is really good, and the vertical row of crossbows that Lang Jun asked him to make has basically taken shape. In addition, there are a few people who look okay, Wei Langjun stares there all day, and Langjun goes over to take a look after eating for a while? ”
"Hmm!"
Bai Muye quickly ate the two plates of bland and tasteless dishes, and then couldn't help but burp.
"Lang Jun drink water." Cong Feng handed over a glass of water with a very eye-catching eye.
Bai Muye didn't answer, and patted him on the back: "Don't drink it, go, go to the craftsman's shed!" ”
……
This trip, Bai Muye gained a lot.
The craftsmen are very hard-working, and they are even happier when they see Bai Muye! Especially Bai Muye has now become a god in their hearts, and as soon as he came, they couldn't wait to show him the half-made prototype.
Under Wei Tianzhen's introduction, Bai Muye selected two styles that he felt were safe and feasible, and instructed these carpenters: build repeating crossbows according to these two styles, and build them in large quantities!
After that, he called two more blacksmiths.
"It's hard work."
The two blacksmiths didn't dare to speak.
Then, they watched General Bai pull his sidearm out from his waist and make a heavy impact with a "bell" - what a pair of iron guys!
Bai Muye handed the nunchucks to them: "Two, can this weapon be created?" ”
The two of them looked at it, although this thing looked strange, but it was just two iron rods connected together, and there was nothing difficult in the technique, so they responded to this errand in one bite!
"This thing will be kept for study, but when connecting, pay attention to the iron chain must be twice as long as this!"
"Well said—" the two blacksmiths replied with a smile, "I wonder how many pieces the general wants?" ”
"You can do as much as you want, 12,000, it's not too much."
"Huh?" The two were a little dumbfounded, and glanced at each other, and their confidence didn't seem to be as strong as just now, "I don't know the general...... When should I use it? If you build so much, I'm afraid the materials will be ......."
Bai Muye smiled, knowing that they were in a dilemma.
"Just do as much as you can, I'll go to the Yamen and ask them to inform the blacksmiths in the city to start building. If you blacksmiths are familiar with each other, you can notify each other to start building in advance. As for the materials, if the pig iron is not enough, it will dissolve other ironware, in short, preparation is the priority! ”
The two blacksmiths breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Muye thought about it, and then shouted to everyone around him.
"If you think that my place is too small and inconvenient to do things, you can go home and do it, and when the time comes, just hand over the finished things to the yamen!"
"If you have any needs, just go to the barracks and find the logistics captain to untie the three seals and let him find a way!"
"You are doing things for Chaozhou and Xia now, you don't have to be tied, if you have any difficulties or novel ideas, you can go to Xie Sanfeng, or you can mention it to Brother Wei, Brother Wei will always be here to accompany you, and they will tell me your thoughts later——"
