"Zhonglian, Shanglin Village has already started making firearms?"

"Yes!"

"Little brother is still in Jinyang Academy?"

"Yes! The Second Young Master was sent by the prefect of Sun to protect the Second Young Master, but in reality they restricted the Second Young Master's actions and prevented him from leaving the Jinyang Mansion."

A smile appeared on Luo Qing's face. He naturally knew that Sun Jixian was afraid that something would happen to Luo Xin. He could imagine the depression on his younger brother's face. Just thinking about it made him feel funny.

"Then who is making firearms in Shanglin Village?"

"They are all Fuchu people, and no one else knows. The villain and Dazhu make the gunpowder, and the other objects are made by the Fuchu people. The last step of charging the powder is only done by me and Dazhu."

Luo Qing nodded, he also knew that the most important part of a firearm is the production of gunpowder, without the black powder made by the younger brother, it would lose its power.

"Okay, go back and tell my little brother, I will send someone there then."

"Yes, Eldest Young Master, that villain will go back."

"Well, I won't keep you either. Go, I'll see you off."

A month passed quickly, and the border villages were still robbed by Mongolian cavalry from time to time, which made the Ming border army helpless.It's not that the Ming Frontier Army didn't go out to look for those Mongolian cavalrymen. Since the defeat of Alatan Khan, the Daming Frontier Army's spirit has also risen. Not only Xuanfu Ma Fang, but also the general soldiers of other important border towns are holding their breath , I want to kill a few Mongolian soldiers, so that Ma Fang will not let Ma Fang focus on the front.

As if overnight, these frontier soldiers were no longer afraid of the Mongolian soldiers in their hearts. Alatan Khan's failure, especially the loss of his arm, shattered the invincible image of the Mongolian soldiers.The image of Alatan Khan is now like a dog in the water in the hearts of the frontier soldiers.

However, the mobility of the Mongolian cavalry is too strong.They come and go like the wind, if they see a small group of Da Ming Frontier Army, they will attack and kill the Da Ming Frontier Army, if they encounter a large group of Da Ming Frontier Army, they will flee like the wind, causing the Daming Frontier Army a headache.At the same time, this situation made Ma Fang more determined, and decided to send a cavalry deep into the grassland to raid Mongolia like the Mongols raided Daming, attacking the Shield with the Spear of the Son.

There are frequent wars outside, but inside the Jinyang Academy, there is peace. Luo Xin shuts himself inside the academy every day, does not step out of the academy, and talks with his friends in the room all day long. He began to sort out the materials Lu Daqing brought back from Yanglin County, and began to write the second volume of "Confucianism and Mencius".

Since Guo Yi met Luo Xin, he never saw Luo Xin again.Moreover, the court's decree has come down. Gongsun Lie was promoted to Baihu and became the leader of the twenty or so of them. Even Xiang Donglin and the other three were also promoted to captains, which made Guo Yi and others very envious.I also look forward to seeing Luo Xin again, but Luo Xin seems to be concentrating on preparing for the provincial examination, and never takes a step out of the school.

As for the two Sun Jixian's personal soldiers still taking turns to go to the gate of the school to monitor every day, but they are not as focused as before. They often lower their heads to think about things, or look around to watch the excitement. I am afraid that Luo Xin walked through the gate of the school. If they go out, they may not be able to see it.

this day.

Luo Xin was reading a book in the room when he saw Lu Daqing walking in from the outside and said in a low voice:
"Uncle, my father is here."

Luo Xin looked up and saw Lu Zhonglian standing at the door, his eyes lit up and he said, "It's started?"

"Hmm!" Lu Zhonglian said excitedly: "Young Master has sent someone here, saying that they are waiting for us in the valley where we used to hide next to Tuer Ridge. Ask Gao Wu to bring some people to wait outside Jinyang Mansion. Uncle."

"Okay! Let's go!"

In the dense forest beside the Yinlong River.

Zhao Yong sat on the grass, biting a piece of grass in his mouth, and looked out of the dense forest from time to time.This time Ma Fang finally made up his mind to send a cavalry deep into the grassland.In fact, Ma Fang also knew in her heart that only in this way could Alatan Khan feel scruples and never dare to easily send Mongolian cavalry to raid Daming.Otherwise, let the Mongolian cavalry raid the Daming border, and my little credit will be slowly wiped out.

He believed that everything that happened at the border would be put on the desk of Jiajing by Jin Yiwei. If this situation could not be curbed, Emperor Jiajing's patience would also be worn out, and his hard-won status would be in jeopardy.

He didn't think of this strategy before, but now that Luo Xin proposed it, his heart was itchy like a hundred cats scratching.Ma Fang is indeed a lunatic, if not for his high status, he would have personally led a cavalry into the grassland to enjoy Huo Qubing's addiction.And in history, Ma Fang did indeed send cavalry into the grasslands to burn down the Mongol pastures, but it was only because of the arrival of Luo Xin that this action was brought forward.

Luo Qing must be involved in this matter, otherwise, if it succeeds, but let Luo Xin know that Luo Qing was not given credit, that would be offending Luo Xin.As for sending Luo Qing to the depths of the grassland, once he died in the grassland, that would be fate, and Ma Fang couldn't be blamed.

However, Luo Qing could not be allowed to lead the army, and Ma Fang still had some distrust of Luo Qing in her heart.It's not that he doesn't trust Luo Qing's character, but that he doesn't trust Luo Qing's age. After all, Luo Qing is only 16 years old. Such a dangerous action cannot be placed on Luo Qing's shoulders.

You must know that Ma Fang is going to send 2000 people for this operation. These 2000 people are carefully selected by Ma Fang. They can be said to be the most elite cavalry under Ma Fang. If these 2000 people die in the grassland, Ma Fang's strength will be greatly reduced, and this charge may be used by others. There are many people in the court staring at him, and there are also many people staring at his position.

Therefore, even if this operation cannot win, it cannot lose too much.This requires an older general with a calmer temperament, and finally Ma Fang chose Zhao Yong.

Zhao Yong is the orthodox commander of this cavalry, and Luo Xin is the deputy commander.During the moonlit night, he quietly left the Xuan Mansion and sneaked towards the north.

After crossing the Yinlong River, it is actually close to the edge of the grassland, and if you go further, you will enter the grassland.And at this time, Luo Qing proposed that he lead some cavalry into the grassland to investigate first.For Luo Qing's proposal, Zhao Yong naturally did not object, but told Luo Qing not to go to war with the Mongolian soldiers lightly. This time the operation was mainly about investigation, and all actions should be taken after Luo Qing came back, and everyone discussed it before taking any action.

Luo Qing naturally agreed, and then galloped towards the grassland with [-] cavalry.These two hundred cavalry are all his descendants. After Luo Qing got away from the Yinlong River, he crossed the river upstream and went straight to Tu'er Ridge. After that, he hid himself and dispatched twenty cavalry, led by Gao Wu. Go straight to Shanglin Village.
