Poor family mother and son

Chapter 848 Who Says There Are No Adults At Home

One mine line, two barbed wire fences, and one more mine line, if they still can't deter them, they should use "heartless", if they still can't stop them, then they should use grenades.

It's just that Chu Qing didn't talk about the "conscientious cannon" and the grenade for the time being, so he didn't have the time.

Although he talked about Ma Da for a long time, and even the soldiers who went to log came back, Ma Ma was suspicious and silent, but this did not hinder the speed of erecting the barbed wire.

It's easier than digging a trench.

A whole night of talking on paper is not as good as a stick of incense in actual combat.

******************
Sure enough, just like Xiaobao's analysis, after seeing the fourth prince and the clear "rejection letter", King Vos immediately decided to make a surprise attack.

"What did I say?" Xiao Bao shook the note and said to Wei Chengyi: "Mother invited King Voss to be taken advantage of!"

In the eyes of King Voss, Chu Qing was not a "rejection letter", but a "war letter"; in Wei Chengyi's view, it was a simple "swearing letter for debt collection".

Chu Qing wrote like this——

"I have heard that Wang Wenzhi's martial arts, morality and ability are outstanding, he goes up to the sky like a bird, and goes down to the ground like a beast, comparable to a beast.

And he is a talented person, wise and powerful, with the eyes of an eagle, the wisdom of a wolf, the righteousness of a crocodile, and a rich man.

More broad-minded, tolerant is great, with forests on his head and green fields on his feet, vowing to give women all over the world a family.

It's just that Chu has no talent, no looks and no virtue, so he has to live up to your love.

In order to express my friendliness and feel guilty about Chu, I would like to invite friends from your country to taste the delicacies of Daxuan and experience the local conditions and customs of our dynasty.

I was afraid that King Voss would not return for a long time and was worried about it, so I bothered the fourth prince and King Guli to report to you;
In addition, friends from your country hope that you can help them pay their debts.Amount description attached below;
You don't have to worry, please pay after three days. If you are lucky, Chu will express his gratitude to you face to face and see his face.

Let's make an appointment to see each other on the tenth day of March. "

Now, Bai Hua led people to be directly responsible for the information exchange between the southern border and the northern border, so as soon as Chu Qing let the fourth prince go, Xiao Bao received the news.

Naturally, Wei Chengyi couldn't tell Xiaobao that his mother was scolding people in a serious manner, so she couldn't teach children badly.

But he was still a little worried: "Xue Zhenghao is still hesitating, but he sent someone to send over a thousand sets of leather armor and spears, but he didn't officially promise to incorporate you into the vanguard army."

Xiaobao disdained: "What is this? Only equipment, no official approval, is it his personal sponsorship?"

Zhuo Yao happened to hear this when he entered the door, so he said, "It is estimated that General Xue will pay attention to the battle situation on our side. If there is a chance of winning, he will send troops to encircle and chase us. In this way, he will admit us in fact."

Wei Chengyi nodded: "It should mean that."

That is to say, although the Chu family's team was not officially given the title of vanguard before the battle, the equipment was sent first. If the vanguard fights smoothly, General Xue will take advantage of the victory and pursue.

In this way, the fact that the Chu family's team is General Xue's vanguard army, as for the formalities, can be done after the war.

But if it was difficult to fight from the beginning, they might wait for the Chu family's team to consume the enemy to a certain extent before making a move.

As for how many Chu family horses died, they were not counted in the Xue family army's battle losses. No matter they won or lost, they won't take any responsibility for these "militiamen".

This seems normal to Zhuo Yao and Wei Chengyi.

This battle is bound to be fought, and as a regular army, he not only bears the honor of the army, but also the honor of the imperial court. As a general, he must think carefully.

What's more, this group of "crowd" in front of them is nominally led by Bai Jiaxing's "civilian forces", not Chu Qing himself, so General Xue can ignore it.

But in Xiaobao's view, this kind of behavior is full of malice - it can't be said that he doesn't see the rabbit and doesn't scatter the eagle, he clearly wants to pick peaches!
"Mother was really blind back then, to give him such a good saber!" Xiaobao was so angry that he slapped the table.

Lao Shi came back with Zhuo Yao. He was tethering his horse outside the door just now, but he also heard the conversation inside, and when he entered the door, he scolded: "Damn it! Do you think there are no adults in the house? You can bully as much as you want? "

Little Treasure hurried forward to greet Old Yu, didn't you hear what Old Yu said, "My lord"!
This is for Xiaobao, a child, to decide.

But I heard Lao Yu continue to scold: "It's not worth bullying in the court, but now I'm back, I still bully! Why, do you really think that Qingzi is not in the care of adults?!"

Xiaobao rubbed his nose, sat back, and thought to himself: Mother, we were all of the same generation, but now it’s broken, and we are older than the same generation!
"What are you shouting about!" came another voice, the voice was a little old, but full of spirit: "Who said no one cares? Who said there are no adults at home?"

The door curtain was lifted again, Master Lu brought Kang Xi into the room.

"Grandpa Lu, why are you here!" Xiaobao jumped up three feet high this time.

Master Lu is getting old, although he insisted on following, Chu Qing and Xiaobao disagreed, asked him to help look after the house, and told him: "With you always in charge at home, we can feel at ease outside."

"The child has something to do, and the adults don't support him?" Master Lu sat on the chair with Xiaobao's support, his face covered with dust and haggard.

"Younger than," Master Lu ordered, "Go and do your work, I'm here!"

That's right, this is the "adult in the family", always scratching his nose - trying to sneak up to a higher level, it's in vain.

"I counted it up," said Master Lu, "for guns and mines, someone has to fix it if it breaks, and we can't let it delay things. If it's not enough, someone has to do it now."

This time, Master Lu brought all the eleven disabled craftsmen who had been dragged back from Kyoto.

He also has the same thought as Xiaobao: to drag people into the water.

Carrying guns together, sharing stolen goods together, and so on together, isn't a grasshopper on a rope more reliable than a death contract?
But this is really not important, the real purpose is: these people are already disabled, even if they are "unconscionable cannons", no matter how unconscionable, killing a few disabled people is better than being buried up to the neck in the loess. Let the young man of great youth die.

Little Treasure saw through Master Lu's mind at once, held the old man's hand and said, "Grandpa Lu, mother said: craftsmen are the most precious wealth! You shouldn't come!"

But Master Lu said a cruel fact: "Craftsmen are only precious with your mother."

This is a simple yet profound question: Daxuan does not value craftsmen, but pays attention to the results crafted by craftsmen that can produce economic benefits.

Maybe it's like that everywhere.

However, not paying attention to craftsmen refers to giving low treatment to craftsmen, not ignoring their lives. Only irresponsible officials really don't take craftsmen seriously.

In the past dynasties, when the army slaughtered the city, maybe the beauties may not survive, but the craftsmen must be preserved.

"Don't say it's useless," Master Lu didn't want to distract Xiaobao from persuading him, and asked, "When will the fight start?"
