After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 1253 Resembles His Majesty

This?
Fan Qianhu was shocked by Qin Xiaomi's words. He sighed and told her something: "Back when there was a famine in the Central Plains, His Majesty was attacking the capital with all his might. Many civil and military officials and strategists advised His Majesty not to pay attention to the famine refugees... After all, these refugees were the responsibility of the madman Ningkang."

"His Majesty's army doesn't even have enough food to feed his troops, so where would he find extra grain, silver, and soldiers to settle the disaster victims?"

"There were even advisors who died remonstrating with His Majesty, crashing their heads into his chest and dying in front of him..."

"But His Majesty only said one sentence... Does Master Qin know what it was?"

"Commander Fan, this isn't a lantern riddle guessing game for the Lantern Festival. Just say what you have to say." Qin Xiaomi was quite speechless, but her hands didn't stop as she continued picking up the skeleton.

He gathered the skeletal remains, fragments thrown by the enemy and scattered on the ground, into a bag and instructed the female guard: "This bag contains the same skeleton; don't mix them up."

"Yes," the female guard replied, with four bags hanging from her shoulders, each containing broken pieces of bone.

Qin Xiaomi didn't respond, which made Fan Qianhu a little embarrassed. He had no choice but to say directly: "His Majesty said at the time that the foundation of the dynasty is the millions of Wei people. Without the people, there is no dynasty, no emperor and no officials. So seeing the people suffering and not helping them is like tearing his own body apart with a knife."

"Letting the disaster victims fend for themselves is like digging out their bones piece by piece and throwing them on the ground. Even if they look strong now, they are not far from death. It is like cutting themselves to death."

Qin Xiaomi stood up and looked at him: "...Is this just one sentence? It's clearly a long paragraph."

"You silly girl, I shouldn't have expected you to say anything touching." Fan Qianhu was even more speechless than before, feeling like he was talking to a brick wall.

But the next moment, Qin Xiaomi said something that made him happy: "Our Emperor is still very benevolent as an emperor. We disaster victims are able to survive because of His Majesty's mercy."

In ancient times, when the emperor held absolute power, a single act of kindness could indeed save countless lives.

"That's right, our Emperor is benevolent, and benevolence is rare. That madman Ning Kang would never be benevolent to us common soldiers!" Commander Fan got excited and hurriedly echoed, praising Emperor Wuxing.

The families whose ten clans were exterminated by Emperor Wuxing: "..."

Are you even speaking human language?!
Commander Fan rubbed his hands together, revealing his true intentions: "Well, girl, we've known each other for a while now. You know what kind of person I am. You can ask me for help with that weapon-making project. Even though the war is tense, I can still spare you a hundred or two helpers!"

Qin Xiaomi glanced at him sideways, as if he were some kind of swindler, which almost made Fan Qianhu explode with anger.

"Uncle Fan, don't worry about making this weapon. It's a gift for this heroine. All of its production can be done by female workers." Qin Xiaomi looked up at Commander Fan and grinned. "This is my bottom line. If you can't meet this bottom line, then I'll take the weapon's formula and die."

This?
Commander Fan was truly stunned and hurriedly said, "You silly girl, why do you keep bringing up death? You have a family, what are you going to do about your grandparents, uncles, aunts, and cousins?"

Qin Xiaomi: "Threatening me?"

"I swear to His Majesty, I have absolutely not threatened you, otherwise my whole family will die a horrible death!" Commander Fan was so angry that he swore a poisonous oath.

but……

Commander Fan suddenly realized: "Your temper is quite similar to... His Majesty's."

They are all fierce, strong-willed, unyielding, and truly willing to risk their lives if pushed too far.

"Who does he resemble?" Qin Xiaomi asked, though she already had a guess in her heart. After all, she had been using Emperor Wuxing's name for so long that even though she had never met him, she could guess his temperament.

That's why she dared to ride on Emperor Wuxing's coattails.

“Oh, let’s not talk about that,” Commander Fan explained. “Uncle really didn’t mean anything by it; I just wanted to help you make as many powerful weapons as possible. We have a formidable enemy at hand, an unusually ruthless one, and we don’t have any reinforcements yet…”

He deliberately lowered his voice for the last few words.

"So, this is the only weapon we can count on," Commander Fan earnestly advised. Bang! Bang! Bang!
Boom boom boom!
On the other side of Mianfushan, the flint was still pounding.

With a series of clattering sounds, a cavalry scout team charged into the battlefield. The leader, holding a flag, shouted, "Where is Master Qin? General Chu asks if Master Qin can spare some weapons. General Chu wants to launch a long-range attack on the enemy stronghold at Mianfu Mountain!"

"Master, General Chu's scouts are here again." Chief Shanshan came over to invite her.

Qin Xiaomi, Fan Qianhu, Zhen Qianhu, Grandpa Qin, and Wei Baihu all heard the shouts and headed towards the scouts' location.

Grandpa Qin had composed himself, but seeing the bloodstains on his granddaughter's gloves still made his hands tremble. He quickly took out a new pair of gloves and handed them to her: "Change into clean ones."

The fact that his granddaughter was collecting bones was more unacceptable to him than the fact that she was leading troops to fight the enemy.

Originally, he and his wife planned to raise their granddaughter to be virtuous and elegant, and to teach her some martial arts and medical skills to protect herself. They planned to marry her off to the Jiang family when she turned eighteen, and live a peaceful and happy life in a family of farmers and scholars.

But now...

I can't think about it, I can't think about it. If I think about it too much, I'll just want to faint.

"Okay." Qin Xiaomi took off her blood-stained leather gloves and took the opportunity to check Grandpa Qin's pulse. She frowned and said, "Grandpa, don't think too much. Your heart rate will be unstable."

Grandpa Qin glared at her: "You still have time to talk about these trivial matters? Think about how you're going to explain this to your grandmother when we get back to the city!"

"Hehe, Grandpa, don't worry. Grandma is the most resilient. She can accept it. If she doesn't accept it, there's nothing I can do. I'm killing the enemy to save our lives." Qin Xiaomi said, putting on her new gloves. After walking quickly for a while, she arrived in front of the scout team and said, "At most, we can give General Chu about a hundred catties of sharp weapons."

Qin Xiaomi prepared three cartloads of sharp weapons, each weighing 600 jin (approximately 300 kg).

Qin Xiaomi kept half a cartload for herself; in the previous battle, she had only used about fifty kilograms.

The scout captain had scouted the battlefield and witnessed the power of the gunpowder packs. He was overjoyed: "That's enough. Thank you for your help, Master Qin!"

"Is this enough? This is the only time." Qin Xiaomi explained the difficulty in making the weapon: "It takes time for the raw materials to transform, so please use it wisely. Don't think I have too many. Use it with all your might."

She's lying. Her finished products only number three, but the military nitrate she converted amounted to half a convoy!
It just needs to be prepared to become a powerful tool.

"Chief Shanshan, gather a hundred catties of sharp weapons. After we leave this battlefield, I'll use my share to supply you," Qin Xiaomi instructed.

"Yes." Leader Shanshan went to find the female guards, and then to find A Ling and Aunt Wen, and each of them contributed a little, so that they could gather a hundred catties of sharp weapons for the scout captain.

"We still need to give them a few people who know how to use them," said the scout captain.

"Who's going?" Qin Xiaomi asked.

"Master, I'll go!" Ye Xifen volunteered... The lady had said that the first step to becoming a female general was to break down the barriers between men and women, immerse herself in the military camp, and fight alongside the Wei army.

This is a rare opportunity to enter the military camp and fight alongside the Wei army, and Ye Xifen doesn't want to miss it.

"Okay." Qin Xiaomi agreed: "But it's not enough. Leader Shanshan, you can choose two more female guards, or Aunt Wen and you can give five members of the Shanying Weapon Team."

As a result, both the female guards and the Shan Ying Sharp Weapon Team sent people to go with them.

Boom boom boom!
After a period of reorganization, the sound of war drums rang out. Ye Xifen and the others bid farewell to Qin Xiaomi and followed the scout team, carrying heavy weapons weighing over a hundred pounds, towards General Chu's command tent.
