Chapter 67 Wealth does not return to the hometown, like brocade clothes walking at night

Nezha Li San did not directly mention the matter of giving away nearly 10,000 weapons, but first found a topic to cut into and asked: "Before, when I came back from riding a dragon, did the two deserters who stood guard at the gate of our mansion be arrested and dealt with by military law?"

Li Jing replied: "I have already sent troops out to arrest him. After you get it back, you won't be spared!!"

Nezha Li San nodded, and he also saw Li Jing's angry expression.

Of course, he also knew that his father was the chief soldier in Chentang Pass, and if he was not decisive in killing, he would not be able to establish his authority.

Besides, the two guards turned around and ran away when they saw the danger, and if they were in front of the battle, they would have been deserters.

It's not a pity to kill them.

On the contrary, he can take advantage of this move to deter Chen Tangguan soldiers who have the same idea in their hearts.

Nezha Li San asked again: "I rode home on a dragon just now, and I saw the weapons thrown by the two deserters in front of the door, which were actually two big wooden sticks!"

Father, why are your soldiers so poorly equipped?!"

"Huh?" Li Jing asked puzzledly, "That wooden stick is called [pestle]!"

It is a weapon used by the inferior soldiers of our Great Shang Army and other vassal states!"

Li San recalled that before he crossed over, he had heard an idiom called ----- "blood flow pestle".

Dare to love, that weapon [pestle], in fact, at the end of the Shang Dynasty, it was a wooden stick!

The blood flow pestle is to describe that the killing on the battlefield is too fierce, and after heavy casualties, the blood that flows out can float the weapon [pestle]!

If the pestle is not made of wood, but of metal, can it float?

Nezha Li San asked, "Daddy, do you want to replace the low-level soldiers under your command with the wooden weapons [pestles] in your hands with metal weapons?"

"Yes!" Li Jing replied without thinking, "I dream of it!" But how is that possible?"

Nezha Li San smiled and said, "I brought back nearly 10,000 metal weapons to you, Daddy. ”

Li Jing looked at his little son again, and then laughed:

"Hahaha............

My son, what a childlike innocence!

Don't talk nonsense.

I see that you have not even brought back a weapon.

How can you boast that you brought nearly 10,000 pieces of metal weapons with you?

Do you know how precious metal weapons are?"

Nezha Li San shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Li Jing sighed and said, "Take the most ordinary bronze fighting knife as an example, it can be exchanged for five sheep.

In our Great Shang Dynasty, the art of smelting is not popular.

In addition to smelting some ritual weapons, most of the rest were used to make weapons after making some agricultural tools.

Even this one, the metal weapons of the whole country, it is still impossible to equip all the soldiers!

In the army, low-level soldiers can only use the cheapest wood [pestle]!

There is no way around it. ”

Nezha Li San smiled and said, "In this way, if I can give my father nearly 10,000 pieces of metal weapons, will you be very happy?"

"Of course I was happy. Li Jing replied, "However, that is impossible.

Now, even among the 3,000 royal forest troops of the Shang king's lineage, there are still one-third of the soldiers who are also using wooden pestles. ”

"Daddy, look. Nezha Li San immediately used his consciousness to take out a three-foot-long steel knife from the leopard skin pouch and floated in front of Li Jing out of thin air.

Li Jing was dumbfounded on the spot, feeling a little slapped in the face by his son.

He asked incredulously, "My son, how did you come up with such a sharp sword?"

Nezha Li Sanyi said with a smile: "I didn't conjure it up. This is what I took out of a leopard skin pouch.

I still have a lot of weapons in my leopard skin. ”

Li Jing was shocked.

He was surprised and asked, "How did you do that, my son, how did you fit such a long knife in your little leopard skin bag?"

Nezha Li San briefly told Li Jing about the magic of this leopard skin bag.

After Li Jing learned that this leopard skin bag was originally given by Taiyi Zhenren, he was extremely happy and said again and again:

"My son's leopard skin pouch contains so many metal weapons, so you can give them to your father quickly!"

"There's no hurry. Nezha Li San said calmly: "Daddy, you promise me one thing, then I will give you weapons immediately." ”

Li Jing's face was flat, and he said a little unwillingly: "What conditions?"

Nezha Li Sanping retreated from all the subordinates around him and said to Li Jing: "Today, the king of Shang has no way, and the world will be chaotic."

Fathers should not be foolishly loyal to Yin Shang. ”

Li Jing wrinkled his brows and heard Nezha Li San say this, and hurriedly said: "My son can't say such a rebellious thing again!"

"Hehehe!" Nezha Li San's face was full of mockery.

He knew that Li Jing was in the original book, and later betrayed the unscrupulous King Shang and took refuge in the Western Zhou Dynasty.

So what are you pretending to be serious here?

It's just that even after Li Jing took refuge in the Western Zhou Dynasty in the original book, he didn't have much right to speak. The main reason is that his own strength is not strong enough, and the soldiers he brings are not elite.

Nezha Li San said again: "There is a way to cut down but there is no way, the replacement of dynasties, such as the change of seasons, who can reverse it?"

Father, you happen to have a heavy army in your hands, waiting for a good opportunity to oppose business. We fathers and sons can also build a great career. ”

When Li Jing heard his son's words, he immediately gasped in fright, his face turned pale with fright, and said, "My son can't talk nonsense, but don't say such rebellious things again." ”

Nezha Li San knew that he couldn't persuade his father Li Jing for a while. And Li Jing is definitely the kind of person who doesn't hit the south wall and doesn't look back.

He had no choice but to change the topic and said, "Daddy, I have nearly 10,000 weapons in my leopard skin bag, can you take me to the armory, and I will unload these weapons into it?"

"Huh?" Li Jing's old face turned red and said, "Let's Chentangguan, where is the armory!"

Nezha Li San asked: "With so many weapons, if I fall in the courtyard of our family, it will be too much of an eyesore." Why don't you, father, take me directly to the barracks, and I'll distribute this weapon to your soldiers!"

Li Jing nodded in goodness.

Nezha Li San said again: "Also, I also brought back a lot of grilled seafood from the East China Sea. Divide half of this seafood and leave it for our family and servants to eat!"

He tossed out the mixed silk and poured out half of the cooked seafood............

In an instant, the tempting fragrance wafted throughout the courtyard............

The maid Qiuxiang and the housekeeper Li Fu each pinched a stack of wooden playing cards in their hands, and they also came out of the house, and when they saw such a large pile of crabs, scallops and other seafood that were still warm, they immediately drooled......

The fat maid Qiu Xiang shouted and asked, "The third prince is really amazing! Where did you get so many big seafood?"

Thank you, Third Prince, for bringing back so many delicious foods to Qiu Xiang!"

Nezha Li San smiled at her and said, "Qiu Xiang, don't eat seafood." You said okay, you're going to start losing weight?"

Autumn fragrance that fattens out four layers of jaw: "............"

........................

Subsequently, Li Jing rode a horse and led his entourage to lead the way in front, while Nezha Li San rode the flower dragon Ao Bing and followed behind. Let's go to the barracks......

Of course, before leaving the house, Nezha Li San also invited Li Jing to ride the flower dragon Ao Bing with him and fly to the military camp, which will be very soon. However, Li Jing did not dare to ride a dragon......

And Li Jing also instructed the housekeeper Li Fu to take the gong to open the road in advance, telling the people along the street not to be afraid of the dragon that Nezha Li San was riding......

After this advance publicity, on both sides of the street where Li Jing and Nezha and Li San passed along the way, they were crowded with people......

The residents in Chentang Pass heard that the third son of General Li actually used the real dragon as a mount to ride. Those who are close to the street, how can they let go of such a good opportunity for onlookers?

Nezha Li San rode a flower dragon nearly twenty meters long, deliberately floating at a height of more than one person, and slowly followed behind Li Jing.

On both sides of the street along the way, the onlookers praised again and again:

"Look, that's a real dragon!"

"Look, the little boy on the dragon's back is really powerful!"

"That's right, such a big real dragon can be tamed by him, it's amazing!"

"That little boy is the third son of our General Li Bing!"

"I heard that the third son of the Li Mansion was pregnant for three years and six months in his mother's womb. ”

"Yes, no, as soon as a person is born, he is a prodigy!!!Otherwise, what mortal can ride a dragon?"

........................

Nezha Li San listened to all kinds of praise from the people, and he was also very proud.

Now, he can truly understand the famous saying-------- wealth does not return to the hometown, like a brocade at night."

However, he did not get carried away, he still remembered the purpose of his trip to the Chentangguan barracks. That is to prepare to buy the hearts of the soldiers, to do something big in the future, and to prepare in advance............
