Chapter 441: Furious
Since last night, Wang Shihua's mood has been like a roller coaster - ups and downs!
In the face of the coveted cannon that is difficult to buy with money, Wang Shihua's heart has been lifting, sometimes excited, sometimes worried, until Peng Shuihu took a telegram saying that everything was going well, Wang Shihua was excited like a child, took off his clothes, and danced around in the room, Zhang Cuiyun couldn't persuade him, but was hugged to the bed by Wang Shihua, shouting "Cannon!" Cannon! Lao Tzu has a cannon~! While pulling Zhang Cuiyun's clothes, regardless of Zhang Cuiyun's complaints, he vented on her fiercely before she stabilized.
However, as soon as he got up from Zhang Cuiyun, the telegram came again: Peng Ziqing was missing.
Wang Shihua's heart became worried again.
waited anxiously until the early hours of the morning, and finally breathed a sigh of relief after learning that Peng Ziqing and the others were safe.
All is safe and all is well! Wang Shihua, who was excited again, finally stayed up until dawn in a half-asleep state after venting on Zhang Cuiyun, who was sleeping in a daze.
The street reported that the weapon was successfully salvaged, and although Wang's eyes were bloodshot, he released the essence of excitement, and his mouth never closed when he smiled.
After a hurried wash, if it weren't for Zhang Cuiyun saying, "Even if you become an immortal, the people below will have to eat breakfast, otherwise, how can you have the strength to hurry?" Wang Shihua had already rushed out of the door, and couldn't wait to take the two thousand men and horses mobilized last night to Shendao Town.
Patient, after breakfast, put down the dishes and chopsticks and ran out, without thinking, Xiaomei followed.
"I'm not going to play this time, why are you following me?"
"I know, but the eldest sister didn't let me go with me to look at you, and she also said that there are many beautiful girls in Shendao Town, so I can have more eyes."
Looking at Xiaomei's weird smile, what else can Wang Shihua do besides pouting? Fortunately, the priority is to receive weapons now, and I don't bother to care about this little thing.
When he came to the door, he saw that the guards were having breakfast, and Wang Shihua could only wait with his temperament. But he pulled Pete, a cannonball expert, aside and carefully instructed him how to do it.
For Wang Shihua to take himself with the transfer of the army, Pete has long been accustomed to it, and he didn't think much about it, suddenly heard the news that there was a mountain cannon, excitedly put the bowl down, didn't even eat breakfast, asked vigorously, and patted his chest again and again to promise: As long as it is a cannon, there is nothing he doesn't know, not to mention that it is just wet, even if it is rusty, he has a way to fix it...... For an artillery expert, hitting a small steel cannon is like fighting mosquitoes, how can there be a mountain cannon to enjoy? What's more, he hadn't touched a cannon in years.
"Pete, didn't I talk about you, you have been dealing with cannons for more than ten years, do you need to laugh so obscenely?" Wang Shihua himself laughed excitedly like a laughing Buddha, but when he saw Pete's shameless smile, he couldn't help but sarcastically mock him.
Pete's pupils were originally green, and when he was excited, his eyes lit up, and he smiled shamelessly like a wolf, and he almost drooled. And such an expression, although I haven't seen it now, but before Mary arrived, such an expression and eyes were Pete's classic wolf smile when he looked at the girl, and I don't know how many girls were treated with red ears and white eyes.
Since he knew that there would soon be a cannon to play with, Pete followed behind Wang Shihua with a dead face, like a dog's leg, and in the continuous courtesy, he suddenly asked about the situation of the cannon from time to time.
"Master, don't you know, I haven't touched a cannon for five years, and I miss it very much. Can you not be excited if you can have a cannon now? ”
After the guards finished breakfast, before Wang Shihua could speak, Pete impatiently urged everyone to get on the horse.
When he came to the outside of the city, he joined the two thousand men and horses, and was about to set off, when Uncle Da's fatal telegram came.
Wang Shihua sent a telegram with a smile on his face, and when he saw it, his face turned blue all of a sudden.
stood up, tore up the telegram, raised his hand, and in the paper falling like a heavenly girl's scattered flowers, Wang Shihua roared: "Dog's day, ambushing Lao Tzu's grain transportation team, Lao Tzu endured it, but regarded Lao Tzu's forbearance as cowardice, and now he dares to ambush Lao Tzu's fleet." Damn, if I don't fight back hard, I'll really think I'm a muddy man......"
Nowadays, it is rare to see such a furious thing in Wang Shihua. For a while, everyone who was scared did not dare to speak.
In the end, it was Xiaomei who asked, "Master, what's wrong?" ”
Wang Shihua subconsciously stretched out his hand to Xiaomei, only to find that he was furious and couldn't help tearing up the telegram for a while. Retracting his hand, he held back his breath and explained: "The fleet was attacked at Tahu Beach, and lost a large ship and some weapons, as well as ...... By the way, you should send a telegram and ask Uncle Da, how is the loss of personnel? ”
When the person who delivered the telegram ran away, Wang Shihua was about to get on the horse, but Xiaomei grabbed him and said, "Master, no matter how anxious you are, it's better to discuss it with the people at home." ”
Wang Shihua thought for a while and said to the second dog: "Go and invite Uncle Jiang here." ”
Immediately, Wang Shihua sat on the stone bench with a gloomy face and did not speak, and those guards looked far away with great eyesight, and the second tiger hurriedly asked everyone to lead the carriage and gather.
Because half of the guards were transferred to be officers, although the new guards had been selected, in order to be able to run in their equestrian cooperation, the war horses left by the old guards were all taken to Xiao Wangjiaping for training, and Wang Shihua had no extra war horses around him.
When Uncle Jiang came out of breath, Wang Shihua didn't give him a chance to speak, and helped him to sit in the special two-horse-drawn carriage of Tie Niu, and said, "Uncle Jiang, I have to bother you to come with me, we will talk on the way." ”
Then, Wang Shihua got into the carriage and turned back to Erhu and said, "I'll take the guards to go first, and you take them to come as soon as possible." ”
When the troops were pulled out, Wang Shihua put the pillow that the iron ox put on the carriage for sleeping behind Uncle Jiang, and after letting him lean more comfortably, he said Uncle Da's telegram and asked, "Uncle Jiang, do you always think that who did it this time?" Could it be the Li family again? Or to home? ”
The last time the grain transport team was attacked, Xiang Dingtian personally came to the door to explain, swore in the name of the ancestor that it was not the Xiang family, and came up with evidence that it was the Li family, because a hunter saw Li Honghui's younger brother Li Hongze in it...... This kind of thing, there is no direct evidence, you can't do anything about him. The key is that the iron also needs to be hard! Although the strength of the Wang family is a little stronger than that of the Li family now, they really have to fight to the death with the Li family, killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred! The strength of the Wang family will inevitably be greatly reduced, and the other two will be cheaper for nothing. Wang Shihua, out of consideration of the actual situation, could only endure this...... It sounds like the Li family is in order to make the Wang family and the Xiang family fight to the death, but who can be sure that Xiang Dingtian didn't have the idea of letting the Wang family fight to the death with the Li family? This kind of major matter related to the survival of the family, unless someone is caught on the spot, he will have to fight to the death, otherwise, let alone swearing with the gambling curse of the ancestors, it is nonsense to gamble with the children.
Unexpectedly, his temporary forbearance made people think that he was cowardly, and he actually beat the fleet of Wang Jiayun's equipment, which made Wang Shihua extremely angry...... is still He Mei's lesson, Wang Shihua shot at several of them before, for various reasons, it was equivalent to catching one of the three of them off guard, which boosted Wang Shihua's self-confidence, and he underestimated them. Now, assuming that one or several of the three of them jointly did this, it means that the three of them began to attach importance to Wang Shihua and regarded him as an opponent of the same level. No, attacking the grain transport team, Wang Shihua could only swallow this suffocating loss, and now, it is basically the same plan, and Wang Shihua feels a powerful and nowhere to use his anger.
"The head of the family, this kind of major event can only be concluded after investigation, and there is no real evidence, and it must not be guessed." It's not to bully the weak, you can take revenge with an excuse, and now you're facing an opponent of the same level, there is no evidence, and you have no name, which is not a good sign. Uncle Jiang thought for a while and said, "Family master, do you remember that the three of them jointly went to Wuhan to buy grain, and as a result, on the way back, millions of catties of grain were sunk by one shot?" ”
Wang Shihua was shocked, and asked in amazement: "You mean, the three of them are taking revenge on me in this way?" ”
"Head of the house, suppose...... I mean, assuming that this is really the work of one of the three of them or the three of them, then revenge is only one aspect, and more importantly, they are issuing the most severe warning to our royal family by using the same means. To put it bluntly, they are envious that our Wang family wants to take advantage of the situation to disrupt the pattern of the causes of the four major families, which makes them very dissatisfied, and asks us to restrain ourselves, otherwise, next time the three of them are likely to join forces to directly start a war with our Wang family. ”
Seeing that Wang Shihua nodded with a gloomy face and didn't speak, Uncle Jiang said with a straight face: "Family master, don't worry about these for now, the most important thing now is to ensure the safety of the remaining weapons." Fortunately, Tahu Beach is only more than fifty miles away from Shendao Town......"
Before Uncle Jiang's words were finished, Wang Shihua gave an order to the two dogs who were riding a horse and followed him: "Second dog, immediately send out the following orders: first, send someone back to Lao Si City, let Uncle Hu preside over the overall situation, and the whole clan will be on guard, gather all the horses of Xiao Wangjiaping outside Lao Si City, prepare a group of good hands, and be ready to attack at any time; second, send a report to Uncle Da, so that he doesn't have to worry about anything else now, everything is important to those weapons, and first transport the weapons back safely before talking about anything else; The third sent people to watch the tiger village, so that Shifu immediately sent more spies, with ten people as a small team, to search in the direction of Tahu Tan (southwest), to meet the enemy, not to fight, just send the news back; Fourth, immediately send a telegram to Zhaojiazhai, asking them to send more spies to search in the direction of Tahutan (southeast), and please notify us immediately if there is any news; Fifth, take my post, hurry up and go to Shendao Town, borrow their fleet from the two Xiao brothers, ask the Wang family of Shendao Town to help prepare some doctors and medicines for the wounded, and ask Commander Luo of the Shendao Battalion to immediately take his men and horses to reinforce Uncle Da and them, and then ask Mayor Xue to check how many mines have been lost recently, and then please help me find out, who has seen a large number of people passing by recently? Sixth, there are 200 spearmen stationed in the Qinghuazhai branch of Qidaogou Village, which is the closest to Tahu Beach, let them immediately go to reinforce Uncle Da by land; Seventh, the south of Tahu Beach is the boundary of Hubei, send a telegram to the second uncle, asking him to go to the head of Zhao in person immediately, be sure to ask the head of Zhao for help, and send a fast horse to the direction of Tahu Tan to track down (northwest)......"
Being able to issue so many remedial orders in an orderly manner in a short period of time shows that Wang Shihua has a very clear mind, and it also reflects the growing maturity of Wang Shihua, the coach.
That's it, Wang Shihua was still afraid that something would be missed, and asked, "Uncle Jiang, do you have anything to add?" ”
"Yes!"
