Without Cheng Xue's instructions, Li Yue took Bai Wei over to take over and put them together with the medicine they brought.

Xiao Song and Li Hui entered the room, along with several lieutenants. They all lit wax together and studied countermeasures.

Cheng Xue saw the lights in the house and ordered Tianma and others to start lighting the kang.

"Tiedan, put some radishes in the beef you brought and let everyone drink some hot soup to keep warm."

"Got it, mother."

Last night and today, they all relied on their own activities to keep warm, and Cheng Xi rode a horse to the town behind to buy some food for them.

I brought a lot of good things and collected firewood during the day. Now I can put them to use.

Not long after, the chimneys in the village began to smoke.The deserted village finally had a sense of human life.

"Mrs. Li, the coach has brought a total of 200 people to suppress the bandits. It is expected to be solved within two days. I have to ask your people to arrange for everyone to eat. The food is outside, where can I put it for you?"

When Cheng Xue heard this, she turned around and saw You Yan, so she quickly followed him out to take a look.It's unclear how many bandits there are on the mountain, but the food and drink for these 200 people cannot be careless.

There are five bags of food in total. 100 people can eat two and a half bags in two days. Is that okay?These are all strong young men who can eat.

Youyan saw her doubts, raised his hands and explained:
"Don't worry, madam. Mr. Li has found some good things for us. It is estimated that the banditry will be solved today, so the food should be enough."

Cheng Xue naturally didn't understand people marching and fighting, so she quickly asked Bai Wei and the others to come over to move food and prepare meals.

Half an hour later, the whole village was filled with the smell of meat, not only beef, but also chicken and mutton, which were all brought from the military camp.

The person who was talking about something in the room came out, and it seemed that the conversation was over.

I saw four of them clasping fists and hands with the others, then ordered people, mounted their horses, and set off.

Cheng Xue Zhang Luo Sheng Tang's words came to her lips and she had to swallow them back.

What are these people doing?
"The first ones to set off are the scouts, who are going to explore Yamagata."

Cheng Xue turned around with a "hmm" and saw only Li Hui, so she asked softly:
"Can we eat now? Noodle soup with flower rolls and pickles."

"What soup?"

"Chicken soup, mutton soup, beef soup, three kinds."

"Oh, it's quite rich."

"That's right." Cheng Xue was quite proud, "We brought the beef from home, and the chicken and mutton were from the military camp. By the way, they only brought one day's rations. Is that okay?"

It's not that she is unfounded, it's actually that this place is different from modern times, relying entirely on physical combat.In addition, Mopan Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If he loses his troops and fails to capture it, Li Hui will be in misery.

Just when she was scaring herself, Li Hui grabbed her wrist and dragged her out of the yard.

"What are you doing? It's time to eat, I have to..."

"You don't have to worry about the meal. How can they be active during the meal? I'll take you to see something."

While talking, the two came to the entrance of the village. When Cheng Xue saw the contents of the open wooden box, she was dumbfounded.

A small black round ball with a long lead, 5 boxes in total, 4 in each box.

"This...this is..."

"Well, that's right. It was developed by the Ministry of Industry. Marshal Xiao brought it from the capital to try out the results. I'm worried that there may be dumb bombs. Although it is simple, its power should be no problem."

Cheng Xue blinked twice, squatted down and picked up one.There are no other problems except that the leads are a little too long.

"Are you sure you want to use it? What if something goes wrong with the landslide?" Cheng Xue was a little worried.Landslides must be considered. This thing is not accurate. If the other party throws it from the top of the mountain, it will be fatal.

"Mrs. Li is indeed thoughtful, but it's almost impossible to flatten Mopan Mountain with this little thing."

When the two heard the sound, they quickly turned around and said in unison——

"I've met General Xiao."

"When you go out, keep everything simple and don't need so many courtesy. I've heard that Mrs. Li's cooking is delicious. I just tried it..."

Uh……

Why did the sentence suddenly break?
Seeing Xiao Song's confused look, Cheng Xue felt confused.

This was the first official meeting between the two. It was dark at dawn and nothing could be seen clearly.If you look closely, you will see that the father and son don't really look alike, especially their eyes.

Seeing that Xiao Song remained silent, Li Hui joked:
"This made General Xiao laugh. My wife is an average cook, but the chef in the military camp is still worse."

Xiao Song came back to his senses, realized that he had just lost his composure, and hurriedly shook his head.

"No, no, no, the noodle soup made by Mrs. Li is delicious, especially the beef noodle soup. No wonder my boy likes to go to your place. You will understand after eating it today."

Cheng Xue felt slightly blessed and hurriedly said modestly:
"Everywhere, Brother Qinglin doesn't mind it. If General Xiao doesn't mind it, I will come home when you are free someday and make you pickled cabbage and stewed bones."

"Okay, we'll go after the bandits are eliminated."

"Yes, welcome anytime."

Cheng Xue knew they still had something to say, nodded slightly, turned around and left.

In the courtyard, the soldiers had already begun to eat, each holding a large bowl with a pointed flower roll in the bowl.Seeing everyone eating so hard, the cook still feels a sense of accomplishment.

While Cheng Xue was enjoying herself, Li Heng and Li Huai at the end of the team made her startled.Seeing the sly smiles of the two children, I just smiled fondly and said nothing else.

It's a good thing to like to join in the fun. Seeing that others eat a lot and enjoy the food, they will naturally eat more.

A quarter of an hour after breakfast, the bandit suppression team set off.It's unclear how many bandits there are, but not only are there 200 people here, but there are also such high-end black balls, so it shouldn't be difficult to subdue the bandits.

Cheng Xue did not dare to think too much about the good news, so she took Li Yue and others to light fire and boil water on the stove in the other room where there was a large pot in case of emergency.

Li Tian and Li Huai were also asked to cut cloth with scissors.Cut the white cotton damask into pieces and strips to make it easier to bandage wounds.

After everything was explained clearly, she went to each house with smoke coming from the chimney to check to see if the water in the pot was filled.

With everything ready, Cheng Xue and Bai Wei returned to the village house where they were stationed.The arrangements for the two children have been done and arranged neatly, so no one needs to worry about them.

"Mom, look, my second sister and I are not very good." Li Huaipo was a little proud.

He is already five years old, and his mother has to remind him repeatedly to use scissors, which is a bit embarrassing.When the second sister was his age, she was already working in the fields.

Cheng Xue looked at her younger son who was claiming credit, smiled and nodded, praising the two siblings without hesitation.

The child is fine as long as his hand is not hurt.And not only did she not hurt her hand, she also did it so properly, which deserves even more praise.

Just when Cheng Xue was so excited, there was a "boom" from outside, followed by a second, third, and fourth...

"Mom, what's going on?"

"Nothing, just setting off a firecracker."
