The king of Yanbei did not come back.

But the messengers returned.

"Miss Tong, the old Marquis Li in the south, General Liu, and General Xiao in the east sent troops together, and the prince of the county decided not to come back for the time being after getting the news, so you can keep the fat sheep and wine for him."

Zhou Tong laughed.

The spring sunshine in Yanbei is also cold, but bright and dazzling, Zhou Tong raised his head, squinted his eyes slightly, and bathed in the sunshine of Yanbei.

In the distance, there is her dearest favorite, but at this moment, she feels very relieved, this is the first time in two lifetimes, extremely concerned, but extremely relieved.

......

A young man galloped on horseback, and the guards were about to stop him, but when they saw that it was him, they greeted him with a smile: "Brother Cake, why are you here?" ”

The cake smiled, and the snow-white teeth sparkled in the sun: "Mrs. Yun sent me to see the county prince." ”

"It's unfortunate that you came, the prince of the county led the troops to fight, and Miss Tong just came back."

"Miss Tong is back?" Flatbread's eyes turned into crescent moons, and he asked, "What about Miss Fangfei next to Miss Tong, are you also coming back together?" ”

The guard shook his head: "I didn't see Miss Fangfei." ”

A hint of loneliness flashed in Da Pie's eyes, but soon he smiled again, Miss Tong was worried about Fang Fei, so she didn't let her come back together, it must be so.

Soon, the cake met Zhou Tong.

"It can't be that A-Niang is not at ease and sent you over, right?" Zhou Tong looked at the flatbread playfully, smiling rather than smiling.

Their mother, if she is not at ease, will definitely come directly with a knife, and send someone to visit her children for her, so she will not do it.

The fact that she didn't come in person is a testament to how relieved she is about her children.

Zhou Tong sighed, how big should her mother's heart be?

The cake touched his head and said, "Actually, it's the third son of Zuo who is here." ”

The third son on the left?

Zhou Tong was stunned, and then remembered this person.

The third son of the Zuo family, Zuo Yawen!

Back then, when Zuo San left, he came back when the spring flowers bloomed, and there was no news for two years, but carefully speaking, he didn't break his promise, isn't it the season for spring flowers to bloom? It's just an extra year.

What the Zuo family does, I'm afraid that only their sisters and brothers know best in the entire Yanbei.

The Zuo family was an arms merchant, not only had they done business with the kings of Yan and Qin, but in many countries, their people were also the guests of the princes.

"What did he bring?" Zhou Tong's expression became solemn.

Flatbread took out a cylinder from his arms and handed it to Zhou Tong with both hands.

Inside the cylinder is the list of goods brought by the third from the left.

No wonder it was a year late, no wonder he appeared at this time.

If Yang Qin was still in Yanbei City, if Yanbei did not fight at this time, these things from the third left would not be delivered to the king of Yanbei at all.

"Thirty small cannons, thirty firearms!"

Zhou Tong was overjoyed and asked, "Have you seen anything?" ”

Flatbread said with a smile: "Mrs. Yun personally counted it, I didn't see such a small artillery when I was in Xi'an, it weighs only a hundred catties, and it can be pulled by a carriage, Zuo San said that the reason why he was a year late was to wait for these twenty small artillery." This is the first time he has done business with the prince of the county, and he must do it beautifully, so that the prince of the county will be impressed by their Zuo family. ”

Zhou Tong laughed and asked, "What about the silver, how much is this worth?" ”

Flatbread said: "Zuo San said that he had talked with the county prince back then, and the first business was on credit, but he still had to give the county prince a discount, and then exempt a cent of interest, a total of 180,000 taels of silver, and settle it within three years." ”

Zhou Tong doesn't have much concept of silver, but she knows that whether it is raising soldiers or fighting, it is all a bottomless pit.

She thought of the mines in Yanbei, Ah Yu wanted to get silver, and it seemed that she could only rely on the mines.

"Is the third from the left still in White Marin?" She asked.

"Ah, he'...... I'm injured, I'm afraid I'm going to have to raise it for a while", when the cake said this, seeing Zhou Tong's questioning face, he had to smile bitterly and said, "Mrs. Yun wanted to try a firearm, so she took a firearm to try it on the spot, and the third son of Zuo didn't have time to dodge it...... Fortunately, Mrs. Yun used it for the first time, and she didn't have the right head yet, but the third son of Zuo was also injured, and the doctor said that he would have to raise it for at least three or four months. ”

Zhou Tong was dumbfounded, her mother, mother, mother.

But she reacted immediately.

Knowing the mother is more than a girl!

Although her mother is bold enough to pierce the sky, she is not stupid!

And as long as he doesn't mention the kidnapping of the two children back then, Yun Qi is a normal person.

If Yun Qi was a fool, she wouldn't be able to kidnap the emperor or kill the empress dowager.

And she also used the emperor to stir the capital into a pot of porridge and take Yang Min's life.

How could such a Yun Qi do something like this, accidentally injuring Zuo San.

Yun Qi must not be worried about Zuo San, either worried that Zuo San had deceived his son, or he was guarding against Zuo San and Tartar joining forces, taking advantage of the emptiness of the rear forces in Yanbei at this time, and taking advantage of the weakness!

So Yun Qi beat Zuo San in a grand manner, so that he could only stay in Bai Marin, under her nose.

A few months later, this battle should also be over, and the king of Yanbei County will be able to return to the army.

A complex emotion surged in Zhou Tong's heart, both grateful and happy, mixed with a little bitterness.

This is her aunt, although she shouts and kills them all day long, but she thinks about them everywhere, just like her aunt treats her father, gritting her teeth with hatred, and even digging his royal tomb, but she was born and died to avenge him.

Her aunt is like the sunshine in Yanbei, cold to the extreme, warm to bright.

"You rest, go back and tell A-Niang, use the fastest horse to send these firearms."

Flatbread said with a smile: "What Miss Tong said is exactly the same as Mrs. Yun, she also said the same, I rode a horse fast, and the carriage and horse pulling the firearm should be halfway by now." ”

Zhou Tong breathed a sigh of relief, called Xu An and Luyou, and asked them to order 200 people to pick up on the road.

Zhou Tong called Zuo Yong again and asked, "How is the prisoner inventory and placement?" ”

Zuo Yong said: "We brought back 1,522 people, including 430 wounded soldiers, more than 100 seriously injured, the wounded soldiers have not settled properly, our own account laughter is not enough, the rest of the more than 400 people do not want to be soldiers, each of them gave a cake, a bowl of mutton bone soup, let them leave after they are full, as a result, half of them are full of food and drink and refuse to leave, this time has been reorganized, tomorrow after the military training and examination, officially incorporated into the battalion." ”

Zhou Tong nodded and said, "Pick a hundred bold and careful ones from your people to form a firearms team." ”

"Firearms?" Zuo Yong's eyes almost popped out, when he was a bandit, he once saw a firebolt at a merchant, at that time there were more than a hundred bandits, and the merchant was only ten people, and he was not afraid to face them, just because of the firebolt.
