MTL - The Reborn Noble Daughter-Chapter 489 curtain armor
Chapter 489 489. Curtain Armor
He just didn't expect that the news was received yesterday and that the prince would be standing in front of him today. He originally thought that it would take at least five or six days.
I can't help but admire the prince, he is really awesome!
Immediately stood up and handed over the list of supplies that had been sorted out.
"The subordinate has ordered people to count these things and send them to the camp immediately. Although there are not many things, it will last for two months."
For the march and war, food, grass and medicine are the most important.
These were all sorted out by Wen Zhonghe first. As for other materials, he will speed up the processing in the past two days.
The Dingwang Army helped Shuzhou a lot during its most difficult time, not to mention that now they were going to fight, and the Dingwang Army was also protecting the people and the land behind them.
Wen Zhonghe naturally wanted to set an example for officials and people at all levels to see. The soldiers risked their lives in front of them, so they could not let their guard down.
The things currently stored in the military camp plus these are enough to support the king's army for half a year, not to mention those that Yang Zhao is responsible for transporting. After that, it can be a protracted war.
It's just that King Ding doesn't intend to wait for the opponent to attack. The best thing is to trigger internal strife among them and sit on the mountain side of the river to watch the fight between tigers and tigers.
If it is really necessary to fight, the battlefield should be moved to the opposite territory.
At that time, the transportation of this food and grass may be a bit troublesome, so he needs a quick way to build a bridge.
When he mentioned this, Wen Zhonghe frowned a little.
This Xishui River is a natural chasm, and it is very difficult to build a bridge on it.
The place where King Ding's army fought with the Nanyue army was actually somewhere else. They all chose to bypass the Xishui River, so you can imagine the difficulty.
"You should ask Bai Shanwei and the Chi family about this matter. Maybe they can have some idea."
Wen Zhonghe nodded. After seeing what Chi Zimo and Bai Shanwei were capable of, it was hard to say that they couldn't come up with ideas, so they could give it a try.
After returning to the military camp, Yang Xu was already waiting in the tent.
Seeing Xiao Tingyi coming back, he immediately shouted, "Your Majesty."
“Have you had a rest?”
“Well, since the prince is here, you should sleep more soundly.”
“Okay, then let’s go down and let the gang head army kill the cows and chickens, and reward the three armies well. Everyone is too tense these days, just relax.”
Yang Xu didn’t understand why he did this, but he had a natural sense of obedience to King Ding, so he immediately went to give the order.
After receiving the news, the gang leaders suddenly became more motivated, and everyone wanted to show off their skills. As a result, a rare fragrance in the military camp spread in the air.
The gluttons in the stomachs of the soldiers were aroused, and everyone was curious as to why the general gave such an order. They thought it was a practice banquet before the war.
It's a pity that King Ding's army has strict military regulations and prohibits drinking. Otherwise, this big meat will only taste good if it is paired with strong wine!
In the main tent, Xu Lin looked at Xiao Tingyi silently, while Xiao Tingyi focused on the military map.
Even though he has studied this map for many years, he still can't get enough of it.
“Your Majesty, Mr. Bai is here.”
“Let him in.”
Xiao Tingyi was not surprised that Bai Shanwei would come, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.
As soon as the person came in, Xiao Tingyi asked without even raising his eyelids, "Have you thought of a way?"
“Your Majesty is indeed as good at predicting things as he is!”
“What method?”
"The Chi family has a kind of curtain-armored boat. There are iron door curtains on the left and right sides of the boat that can be rolled out and buckled with each other. Not only is the draft stable, but the cart can move on it with ease. I calculated that it spans the entire length of the boat. Thirteen curtain-armored boats are needed to connect the Tianxi Water River, and the head of the Chi family sent twenty last time, and they docked at the lower end of the Luo River. If the power is used at full power, it can reach the place where the prince wants to transport food in half a day. !” “Okay, the Chi family is really good at what they do, you should learn more, these are good things that will benefit the country and the people.”
As soon as his eyes opened, Bai Shanwei understood immediately.
“Don’t worry, Your Majesty, I have already drawn most of the blueprints of the ship. If it can be modified, it may be used as a fast-submersible warship. In this way, it will definitely greatly increase the naval power of our dynasty!”
Xiao Tingyi smiled with satisfaction. It was easy to deal with smart people.
Before he even opened his mouth, the other party was already doing it.
If everyone has the same long-term vision as Bai Shanwei, I am afraid that the great Jin Dynasty will never be a lie.
“Well, then I’ll leave this matter to you. If the king needs it, these grains and herbs must be delivered to the other side within two days!”
Taking a list from King Ding, Bai Shanwei glanced at it and nodded in agreement.
After arranging these, Bai Shanwei left the military camp in a polite manner. Yang Xu had been helping with disaster relief in Shuzhou these days, so he also knew Bai Shanwei's name.
“The Bai family is indeed full of talented people. As time goes by, his achievements will not be less than those of Prime Minister Bai.”
He is not a person who likes to talk too much, but he will appreciate it more when he meets someone he truly admires.
There was a fragrant smell outside, and several people inside the tent began to discuss strategies to retreat from the enemy.
At this moment, Emperor Qi, who was far away in the eastern capital city, felt that his country was unstable and his situation had improved.
I can eat half a bowl of rice in the past two days, but I am still very thin.
When he was awake, he could discuss the situation with the prince, but when he was dizzy, he felt so weak that he seemed to die in the next second.
Originally, Xu and Feng's family wanted to get married, but now it has been put on hold due to the war.
Facing a crisis for the family and the country, who dares to hold a wedding banquet with peace of mind?
So the queen gave up her thoughts and spent the whole day in the harem sometimes praying for blessings and sometimes doing rituals.
To show their sincerity, the concubines also joined in. The harem now looked less like a harem and more like a temple.
Since Feng Jinxu came back, the Feng family has been staying at home to recuperate.
His leg was broken intentionally. It was Dr. Zhang who did it himself and made it look the same as before, so he suffered a lot.
Seeing that her long-awaited husband had finally come back, Mrs. Wen was so happy that she was speechless.
After discovering that his leg was injured, he was supervised every day to change his medicine and dressings, and even his meals were changed to a list of nutritious foods that were beneficial to the recovery of the wound.
Fortunately, Feng Jinxu is not a person with a heavy appetite, so it is not difficult to eat.
After being promoted, he hid at home to recover from his injuries, and lived a rare leisurely life.
At one time, he was inspecting Yunli's homework, and at another time, he was teasing his beloved daughter. He and Wenshi were also very affectionate.
Looking at the way their eldest son was mixing honey with oil, Feng Er was envious.
Go to Feng Jinyao's yard and "complain about the water".
“I hope that the prince can return triumphantly as soon as possible and that the people in the southwest can live a stable life.”
“Second brother, you don’t want to delay your marriage to Sister Xu.”
