Li Xuemei considers the problem more practically.

"Is there enough food to recruit again?"

The salary can be counted for the time being, but the matter of eating cannot be owed.

Yan Laoer: "Where is enough, this raising soldiers is really expensive, not counting equipping military horses or anything, just feeding them, it will take a lot of effort." ”

"Fortunately, we left all the grain from the south, otherwise I would have to take them up the mountain to pick up the land."

"It's better to think from the south." Li Xuemei frowned and said, "Buy some more grain." ”

"That's right." Yan Lao Er nodded and said: "Lord Wang, this is preparing for war, when the fight starts, there are not too many people, it's a big deal, let's find the grain convoy in Xizhou and rob them!" ”

As soon as he heard this, Yan Yuke became energetic.

"Yes, yes, we can feed the war with war, there is such a good spy as Jiuxiao, looking for food in Xizhou, holding a handle." She made a grasping gesture, her chubby little fingers pinched together, and she smiled brightly.

Li Xuemei: ......

She said that she went to the south to buy grain, and the two men agreed to it, but they only thought about how to come back from Xizhou.

Yan Lao Er asked his daughter, "Where is that person?" ”

"It's going to be soon, let's go tomorrow and the day after." Yan Yu smiled and said: "Time is ours, if you can't get out of the way, Dad, I'll take someone to go first, and you will set off the day after tomorrow." ”

"Tell me, who do you bring?" Yan Lao Er was very curious about his daughter's list of escorting grain merchants.

"Hahaha! Our Scouts' internal selection is fair and just, based on standing on the bamboo raft and not dizzying, hehe, this team not only has the strength of the new generation, the old and strong Grandpa Song and Grandpa Hu, but also a number of prisoners and adults to join, Dad, are you surprised or not surprised?! ”

Yan Lao Er pointed at her, and he couldn't speak.

"You, how did you choose this? Why do you still take the prisoner with you? You ...... bold and boundless!

"I've raised money in the village!" Yan Yu's words were earth-shattering.

Not to mention that Yan Lao Er was stunned, Li Xuemei also stared at him in surprise.

"Let's explain first, I consulted the teacher about this matter, and then asked the uncle, and then I decided to raise money with the people in the village to buy grain, and this money is earmarked for the purpose of buying grain."

Yan Yu spoke quickly: "Na, this, the plan I wrote under the guidance of the teacher, and this, the uncle replied to me, and there was also a private letter to Master Gu Feng, I read it, and the uncle helped me rent a boat!" As for Gu Feng's big ship, I used to give the silver directly, and I didn't owe him, I have money! ”

She raised her little face with a look of pride.

"Dad, you can think about it, do you want to send a few people to go with you, I think you can actually raise funds internally, the uncles of the militia have two in their pockets, and the little money adds up, you can buy a lot of food, and you can also learn some skills of boating by the way on the way back, how good, the art is not pressing."

"I don't decide those prisoners casually, if it's a southerner, you have to be able to speak the dialect, let's talk about grain trading, in case people are bullied, this time, if you want to go to Jiangdu Mansion and Huzhou Mansion, the locals are the best, and then you have to have a skill, you can look at the charts and will know the direction on the sea to understand the rules of the ship, I can ask carefully, which dock is particular, and it would be better if there were people familiar with the city."

"Can you rest assured?" Yan Lao Er asked.

"Don't worry." Yan Yu shook his head, and then said with a smile: "So I have to hold on to their family, and then give a little guy with my scout around me, no, it should be called a scholar, who can hold a knife and shoot arrows, they run and try, and they will die if they try!" ”

Li Xuemei reacted quickly and pursed her lips and smiled.

Yan Lao Er was stunned for a while before he understood what the last two words meant.

"Jiuxiao is not here, you have been communicating with your uncle a lot, when did it happen?" He asked, wondering.

"Just one day today, Jiuxiao just caught the carrier pigeon and came back to show me the letter, I read the letter, let the pigeon go, I wanted to let Jiuxiao fly a few back and forth very fast, no need for me to run over, as for this idea, I pondered for several days, hoeing when the hands and feet work and the brain is not idle, just want to it!"

The carrier pigeon was released on the boat, and the cat sent a signal synchronously, and Jiuxiao caught a quasi, that is, its paws were inconvenient, and it took out a small note to not be able to restore the original state and then put it back, so it had to use the most stupid method to catch the pigeon back.

When he came back like this for the first time, Yan Yu was stunned!

The carrier pigeon was so frightened that it collapsed and stopped eating, Yan Yu was ruthless, and directly took a trace of spicy meat into it.

Immediately happy, hey!

When I flew again, I saw that I had fled for my life, and my wings were flapped so fast.

But there was no turn, all the way to the west.

Yan Yu felt that Jiuxiao had done a very good job, both the enemy and me, information was king, limited by the size of the note, the carrier pigeon carried letters back and forth, and the amount of information was very small, but fortunately, the prince of Qi was a person with a strong desire to control, good guy, he was not idle in the vast sea, and this correspondence and that correspondence, including but not limited to his father Qi Wang, his loyal subordinates who stayed in Xizhou, and his close good brother Ding Jiao!

Let's focus on Ding Jiao, this guy organized the incident of bombing the mountain and ambushing the British king, almost, if the stone collapses on time, they will all be finished.

He is a ruthless man, with a fierce fighting spirit, and he can't wait for his good brother Qi Wang Shizi to arrive soon, and he will immediately lead his troops to Guanzhou!

Yes, this Ding Jiao supports attacking a strong enemy first, that is, Guanzhou.

And the King of Qi himself bit wanted to fight all the way to the capital.

The prince of Qi has not yet made it clear, and both of them want to convince him, and it seems that they care about the opinion of this prince.

Ding Jiao passed on a lot of news about Guanzhou.

Several border armies are in the tiger position, Guanzhou sent troops to Leshan to suppress bandits, Gu Feng's new painting of the border has been added to the defense, the reward of the capital has arrived, and so on.

It can be seen that the spies in Xizhou are very active in Guanzhou.

Occasionally, it was mixed with a few of the imperial court's troops to move north, but there were too few mentions, and Yan Yu could not judge the route and speed of the friendly army.

More information gathering is needed.

"You've made money in the village, what else am I tossing." Yan Lao Erxin said that almost all of the men in the village are honest leaders, and they all pay 1510 to their families how much money they make, and there are a few people who hide their hearts and secretly hide money by themselves, and he asked these people, isn't it in vain.

"I'm making up the money to buy food, Dad, you can make up the money to buy medicine! As soon as this battle starts, there will definitely be a shortage of medicine for wounds, and if we have medicine in our hands, we can have a little more confidence in facing the Xizhou Army. Yan Yu said seriously.

Li Xuemei nodded slowly: "Dabao is right. ”

"Dad, I've pulled those prisoners several times, and those who are not proficient in medical skills are not proficient, so you'd better convince my aunt to bring them to my uncle." Yan Yu pointed in the direction of her backyard, her aunt's house.

It was written yesterday, but it looks dissatisfied, and I look at it again today, and it really needs to be overhauled, so I speed up the progress ~
