Chapter 135: Request
Hearing Zhang Xiaochi's words, Ye Rufeng's expression was serious, and he said seriously.
"How can this be considered a fuss?"
"You have invented such a powerful weapon, which has enhanced the heritage of our Dayue Kingdom, just the power of this giant bow and crossbow, to put it mildly, without this thing, when the enemy soldiers are in the city, we may have to kill a lot of people!"
"Therefore, it is natural to ask Brother Zhang for credit."
"Brother Ye, isn't this too troublesome for you?"
Zhang Xiaochi said with a dry smile.
"No trouble."
Next, Ye Rufeng wrote a letter of merit in front of Zhang Xiaochi, and sent a soldier to send the letter to the capital on the spot.
"Brother Zhang, Qingwa Town is far away from the capital, and it will take two or three months to come and go, so please be patient."
Ye Rufeng said with a smile.
"Don't dare."
"Brother Ye, if it's okay, then I'll go back first."
"Okay, you go back first, I'll check it out here."
When I returned to Qingwa Town, I just came to the vicinity of Chixi Restaurant, and found Duanmu Yunze probing his brain at the door of the restaurant, looking like he wanted to go in but didn't dare.
"If you want to go in, you can go in, our restaurant is not a black shop."
Zhang Xiaochi quietly came to Duanmu Yunze's side and said loudly deliberately.
"Oh my god!"
"Who is so lacking in virtue?"
Duanmu Yunze was taken aback, and an angry look suddenly appeared on his face, but when he turned around, he found that it was Zhang Xiaochi, and the next second it became flattery.
"Brother Zhang, why are you walking silently?"
"It's not that I walk without a sound, it's that you kid doesn't notice others at all!"
Zhang Xiaochi glanced at him, and then asked lightly.
"Tell me, what are you doing at the door?"
"Brother Zhang, I wanted to come to you, but I didn't know what to say, so I had to linger at the door."
Duanmu Yunze explained awkwardly.
"Come in first, what to say inside, what to say outside the station!"
Zhang Xiaochi was the first to enter the restaurant, because of the war, there were only a few tables of guests in the restaurant, Zhang Xiaochi asked Zhang Cheng to fry two side dishes and bring a pot of wine.
"Brother Duanmu, come, drink."
For Duanmu Yunze, to be honest, he still had a trace of guilt in his heart, after all, it was because of him that this guy was forced to defect.
Of course, it is also because of him that he can get closer to Hamza's handsome tent.
Duanmu Yunze picked up the wine glass and touched it with Zhang Xiaochi, only to see him drink the wine in the cup, and then said slowly.
"Brother Zhang, can I ask you for one thing?"
"Say."
Zhang Xiaochi put a piece of sauced beef in his mouth, and replied while chewing.
Duanmu Yunze showed hesitation, took a big sip of wine, and then said slowly.
"Brother Zhang, I'm also from Dayue now, but ...... But since I came to Da Yue Kingdom, I have no income, and my life has been very poor. ”
"I haven't had a full meal for two days now."
"Brother Zhang, can you give me an errand to do?"
After speaking, Duanmu Yunze looked at him with pleading eyes.
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaochi seemed to understand something, Duanmu Yunze was a person from the Jin Kingdom after all, and it was normal for him to have no income when he first arrived, and he didn't think about it at that time.
"Brother Duanmu, if you want, you can do chores in the restaurant first."
"Yes, of course."
"Alright, let's eat."
Zhang Xiaochi nodded, Duanmu Yunze stopped talking, glanced at the food on the table, and began to gobble it up.
When Duanmu Yunze was full, Zhang Xiaochi asked him to go back first, and then come back to work tomorrow, but this kid is very discerning, so he has to stay and do things today, and said that he can not be paid today.
Since Duanmu Yunze has expressed his position, Zhang Xiaochi naturally will not continue to insist, so he let him flow down.
In the evening, Ye Rufeng came to the restaurant for dinner and told him about the battle situation on the border, this battle, our side won, but the losses were also quite heavy, only a little better than the Jin army.
The two counted that from the beginning of the war to the present, the total number of deaths on both sides exceeded 10,000.
Moreover, since the first battle was a sneak attack by the Jin Kingdom, which led to the direct death of more than 2,000 people on our side at one time, the total number of deaths was still more tragic on the side of the Great Yue Kingdom.
"One more thing, I'll go to the front line tomorrow, can you please help me take a look at the Twin Pillar Peak?"
Ye Rufeng said suddenly.
"Brother Ye, are you going too?"
"Well, the battle situation in front is tight, I want to help, guarding the Twin Pillar Peak is an extremely important task, and now I can't find a suitable candidate for the time being, so I can only ask you to help."
"Mainly, Brother Ye doesn't dislike me."
Zhang Xiaochi replied.
"With Brother Zhang's ability, I can't ask for it, how dare I dislike it!"
"Also, Brother Zhang doesn't have to always guard the Twin Pillars Peak, just go and see it every once in a while."
Ye Rufeng reminded.
Subsequently, the two discussed some details, and Ye Rufeng said goodbye and left.
The next day, Zhang Xiaochi went to Shuangzhu Peak early in the morning, and after seeing Ye Rufeng leave, he inspected the city wall, and then stayed for about an hour before returning to Qingwa Town.
He didn't go back to Chixi Restaurant, he rushed straight to the blacksmith shop to supervise the blacksmiths forging parts, although their progress was very slow, but the quality was still passable, but it could make Zhang Xiaochi worry less.
Time passed, and a second giant bow and crossbow soon appeared on the city wall, and more than thirty giant arrows had been created.
This is the sixth day that Zhang Xiaochi has guarded the city wall, because he can't leave, so he went to deliver pork yesterday and let Wu Xiong lead the team, and when he came back, he also brought back some news from the front.
The battle situation on the front line is not very ideal, the battle situation is stalemate, and it is basically a situation where you come and go.
"It is said that Lu Xiaofeng and Chen Huizu were also injured."
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaochi chuckled in his heart, these children of the family were actually injured, you can imagine how fierce this war is.
"Brother Zhao is okay, right?"
Zhang Xiaochi asked.
"General Zhao is fine."
Hearing Wu Xiong's answer, Zhang Xiaochi breathed a sigh of relief, he turned his head to look in the direction of the border, and had a good impression of those sons and daughters of the coming family in his heart.
After all, these sons and brothers are pampered on weekdays, and none of them have quit until now when they go to the battlefield, and this alone is worth impressive.
"Angkor, you must be tired from letting you run this trip, go back and rest."
"Well, it's really tiring to run around these days!"
Wu Xiong nodded, in order to raise pork, he took Wu Xing and the others to run around, plus it was a time of war, his spirit had been tense, and he was already physically and mentally exhausted at this moment.
Seeing off Wu Xiong and the others, Zhang Xiaochi stood on the city wall and looked in the direction of the border and took a deep breath of air, I don't know if it was due to psychological reasons, or if there were too many people dying on the battlefield, as if even the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
