171 There is a horse

Yuan Youchun is happy, and he is happy in his heart.

Because just now the people below came to tell him that Chen Mo's people came to ask him for food.

After learning the news, he was excited, let you cross with me, now you know to beg me?

If you want food, you can.

"Let Chen Mo's hairy boy come to Qingting County to kowtow to General Ben and apologize, and say that I was wrong three times, and General Ben will consider giving him food." Yuan Youchun said to Han Wu like this.

Han Wu's face sank slightly, and he immediately took a light breath and said: "General Yuan, Qu Shuai ordered our county magistrate to reorganize the army and cooperate with General Yuan, but now that the big war is coming, if there is no food and grass, and the fighter plane is delayed, you and I can't afford it." ”

"Hmph." Yuan Youchun snorted coldly and said: "Don't let the hell scare me with this, you Pingting County just received grain, and I think that General Ben doesn't know, if the fighter plane is delayed, it will also be your disobedience to the order, and then General Ben will be in front of Qu Shuai and sue you." ”

Hearing this, Han Wu suppressed the anger in his heart, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "General Yuan, that is the people's food, not the army's food, besides, Qu Shuai gave our county magistrate's urgent report, but it can be said that General Yuan will give food." ”

Chen Mo taught him this, in order to provoke Yuan Youchun to see if it was the same as what he guessed.

Yuan Youchun's face changed slightly, and he really believed it, because part of the grain and grass allocated to him by Xia Lin was indeed given to Qingting County, and he said:

"Don't pretend to be fucking righteous and return the people's food? In the end, it didn't go into Chen Mo's hairy boy's pocket.

It's still the same sentence, if you want food, it's simple, let him come over and kowtow to Lao Tzu three times, otherwise there is no way. ”

"General Yuan, you are communiquΓ©ing a personal vendetta."

Han Wu wanted to say more, but Yuan Youchun had already issued an order to expel the guests.

After Han Wu left, Bai Qi stepped forward and said, "General, the war is coming, if we don't give them food, they really complain to Qu Shuai, what should we do?" ”

After all, Qu Shuai's letter clearly asked them to transfer food to Chen Mo's side.

"Don't worry, I have my own plans." Yuan Youchun waved his hand, got up, and said as he walked: "Although Qu Shuai asked them to transfer grain to them, he didn't specify how much, 10,000 catties is grain, and 1,000 catties are also grain."

Besides, I really don't give it, isn't it a while before August 1st, what's the hurry, dry them first, if you don't know that kid Chen Mo, he will really come over and kowtow to me and apologize. ”

finally has a chance to pinch the other party, if Yuan Youchun is not good to embarrass the other party, then it will not be in vain to blind this opportunity.

"The general is wise." Seeing that Yuan Youchun had a countermeasure, Bai Qi also laughed, and said: "If that kid really comes, his subordinates will definitely call the whole army over to watch, let them be a witness, and let his kid lose face." ”

Yuan Youchun is already fantasizing about this kind of scene.

"General, it seems that Qu Shuai's side is still more biased towards us, since Qu Shuai asked us to transfer food to Chen Mo and asked him to cooperate with us, it means that Qu Shuai does not trust Chen Mo either." Bai Yan said.

"I said before, he is an outsider after all, how long have I been with Qu Shuai, how long has he been with Qu Shuai?" Yuan Youchun was a little surprised, and the dissatisfaction with Yang Minggui that had arisen because of He Jinwu's incident also disappeared at this moment.

……

"Let me kowtow to him and apologize, he really dares to think about it."

Han Wu came back that day, and after listening to his report, Chen Mo couldn't help but sneer, and immediately said, "Send someone to Xia Lin to find Yang Minggui to complain." ”

It's going to take a long time.

"No." Han Wu surrendered.

After Han Wu left, Chen Mo called Wang Ping and asked, "What is the armory ordnance?" ”

Wang Ping did not hesitate at all, and immediately replied: "County magistrate, now all the infantry squads are fully armoured, with 500 spears, 361 crossbows, 600 longbows, more than 100,000 arrows, and 207 fire pot bombs. ”

The fire pot bomb is the gunpowder made by Chen Mo, because it is filled with clay pots, so Chen Mo took a name, called the fire pot bomb.

However, saltpeter is now in short supply, and the gunpowder factory has now been suspended.

Extracting nitrate from urine alone is a drop in the bucket.

However, this kind of killing weapon, Chen Mo does not plan to use it on a large scale at present, and if it is exposed now, it will not bring much benefit to him, but will bring trouble.

It can be used in small batches, because it can be fooled with other excuses, so more than 200 fire pot bombs are enough for now.

……

July 17th.

In the Yi family's small courtyard, Xiaolu sent Xiao Ling over to tell Chen Mo that the tail-eyed spirit fish he sent had already spawned, so Chen Mo came.

In the pool, there are artificial rockeries, waterscape caves, colorful fish swim back and forth, and when passing through a hole, a blood basin mouth rushes out and swallows a two-finger-sized goldfish.

The tail-eyed spirit fish also has teeth and is a mammal.

Although the female fish that has just laid eggs is relatively weak, there are no fish in this pond that can threaten it, so it can be said that it is currently at the top of the entire food chain, and the pond is too small compared to the big hole lake, and it is not difficult to hunt at all.

"Fawn, should these eggs be kept separately from the mother." Chen Mo heard that some female fish would swallow fish eggs to replenish their own nutrition.

Yi Shiyan shook his head: "The tail-eyed spirit fish cherishes its children very much, and after laying its eggs in this cave, no other fish are allowed to approach. ”

"That's good." Chen Mo gently hugged Yi Shiyan, kissed her on the forehead, and said, "Then this tail-eyed spirit fish, as well as fish eggs, will trouble the deer." ”

Yi Shiyan nodded, revealing a sweet smile.

Seeing this, Xiao Ling on the side also retreated.

Yi Shiyan hugged Chen Mo's waist, put her head on the other party's chest, and said softly: "Husband, are you done?" ”

"What's wrong?"

"The concubine thought about it."

Chen Mo: "......"

He's just been off for two days.

Fortunately, at this time, Xiao Ling came over and told Chen Mo that there was something wrong with the Yamen.

Chen Mo rubbed Yi Shiyan's head and said, "Xiaolu, I'll give you one more thing." ”

"Husband, please speak."

"Do your best to become a warrior." Chen Mo cheered her on.

He found that the fawn was more vigorous than himself, so he found a way to let her vent first.

Yi Shiyan nodded.

For her, it wasn't particularly difficult to become a martial artist, she just didn't want to before.

……

Return to the Yamen.

Chen Mo found a group of people standing in front of the yamen, and the most eye-catching thing was that one of them was holding a horse.

Geng Songfu was talking with the people of Wutai County who had come from Gaozhou.

From the nervous faces of the people of Wutai County when they entered Pingting County, and when they saw Geng Songfu, they were completely relaxed and smiled, it can be seen that Geng Songfu is trusted by the people of Wutai County.

"Rest assured, Lao Clumsy hereby assures that County Magistrate Chen is definitely a good official, and he will definitely settle you properly." Geng Songfu said.

Hearing Geng Songfu's assurance, the smiles on their faces became a little thicker.

Although most of the people are dull, but they also have eyes to see, after entering the city, the scene that catches the eye, is a lively and prosperous scene, if there is no stable life, there can be no such smoke.

"The county magistrate is here."

I don't know who screamed, and everyone's eyes looked in one direction.

"County Magistrate Chen is here." Geng Songfu also shouted, then pointed to Chen Mo who came over on horseback, and said, "Fellow villagers, he is the county magistrate of our Pingting County, Chen Mo, and your county magistrate in the future." ”

The people of Wutai County were shocked, especially the henchmen sent by Li Yunzhang, and their eyes were about to pop out.

Too young.

Although Hu Qiang had already told them in advance.

But what you hear and what you see with your own eyes is different.

Chen Mo glanced around at everyone, and then scolded Hu Qiang: "How do you do things?" In this summer, the other party came from afar, how could they let them stand here and quickly ask the kitchen to bring the food. ”

After speaking, his eyes looked at Zhao Daoxian again: "Can their residence be arranged?" ”

"The scribes are registering them, and when they are done, they can move in." Zhao Daoxian said respectfully.

"There are some things that can be done on a special case, first arranging a place for them to live, and then registering them in turn." Chen Mo said: "And these horses, they are all sent to the stable first, people come and go here, in case they are frightened and injured, who will be responsible?" ”

"No."

The people of Wutai County naturally saw this scene in their eyes, and this feeling of being valued made their hearts warm.

It can be said that Chen Mo's few words made the people of Wutai County have a good impression of him.

After arranging everyone, Chen Mo looked at Su Wen and said, "Didn't you let you buy Wutai young horses, why are they all big horses?" ”

Su Wen didn't speak, Geng Songfu pointed to a group of Wutai young horses that had not yet been brought into the stable, and said with a smile: "County magistrate, this is a young horse." ”

In Geng Songfu, Chen Mo learned a new knowledge, it turned out that a young horse about two years old already looked like a big horse, but his style, temperament, and work ability were still a pony, and it would take two or three years to become a capable horse.

But it can be seen from this that Geng Songfu did not lie to him.

Just the young horse has the characteristics of thick limbs, short neck and round hips, wide chest and broad back.

However, not all horses can become war horses, and they still need to be screened.

This kind of thing was handed over to Geng Songfu, who had previously given the imperial court a fold to vigorously develop Wutai County, which proved that he had experience in this area.

And when Chen Mo and Geng Songfu were discussing settling down this group of people.

In the resettlement camp on the other side.

The people of Wutai County looked at the white rice and swallowed their saliva.

It turned out to be dry rice, and they thought it would be very good to have a porridge, but the result was beyond expectations.

The dishes are just some ordinary vegetarian dishes, but with plenty of salt.

Chen Mo didn't serve meat on them.

Because you can't give them the best right away, you have to take your time.

Lin Shengcai is Li Yunzhang's confidant, and he is also the cousin of the other party, and he came with a mission to spy on the truth of what Hu Qiang said.

He was not bought by a single meal, because it was most likely deliberately arranged by the other party.

He was ready for a long observation.
