Chapter 176 You Are a Big Black Face
Chapter 176 You are a big black face
Hearing what Mu Yexiao said, Qian Jiujiu seemed to be right. It seemed that it would not be easy to finish this battle, but Qian Jiujiu was a little worried.
If the battle here doesn't end soon, can the emperor and others in Kyoto wait until they go back? You must know that the reputation of the Liu family is now restraining the Liu family.
But the power touches people's hearts, who would have thought how long this reputation could restrain the Liu family? Glancing at Mu Yexiao, he saw Mu Yexiao's face was heavy.
Obviously also thought of such a thing, sighed, and fell asleep with Mu Yexiao, but in the middle of the night, Qian Jiujiu heard a loud voice.
"The enemy has come to attack..."
It seemed that Mu Yexiao was reluctant to send someone to die, but the other party didn't think so, Qian Jiujiu followed Mu Yexiao and got up together: "Jiu'er, come out of the tent."
Qian Jiujiu nodded: "I know my current situation, and I won't go out to cause trouble."
Only then did Mu Yexiao turn around and go out, and the girls had already walked over at this time, and Xiao Man also came along, looking at Qian Jiujiu.
"Sister, are you okay?"
Qian Jiujiu shook his head: "I'm fine, by the way, how about you? Are you okay? Are you scared?"
Xiao Man also shook his head: "I'm fine, it's just that if you continue like this, you won't be able to rest well, what should you do? Or go back to the city?"
Some time ago, Mu Yexiao was forced to retreat to the city because he couldn't break the golden light shield, and the barracks was also occupied. Later, the golden light shield was broken by the reflection of Qian Jiujiu's bronze mirror.
So Mu Yexiao took back the barracks outside in the past few days. Qian Jiujiu naturally followed Mu Yexiao, and came to the barracks outside, where they lived together in a tent.
Qian Jiujiu glanced at Xiaoman: "I won't feel at ease when I go back to the city. It seems that I still have to find a way to end this battle quickly."
Xiao Man also had a sad face, sighed, and looked at Qian Jiujiu: "I'll go out and see what's going on outside."
But Hong Ling grabbed her and said, "Miss Xiaoman, there is a battlefield outside, it's very dangerous, so I can't go."
Xiao Man shook his head: "Don't worry about me, I'll be fine. I'll just go out and have a look, and I'll be back soon."
"No, the swords and eyes outside, how can you go, stay here, it's just a small part of the raiding camp, and there should be nothing to do soon."
Xiao Man, who was about to go out, stopped immediately when he heard Qian Jiujiu's words, and it was exactly as Qian Jiujiu said, and soon Mu Yexiao's side was settled.
Seeing that Mu Yexiao came back, several servant girls and Xiaoman went out, looking at Mu Yexiao: "What's wrong? You seem very troubled?"
Mu Yexiao sighed: "There are only two or three hundred people who came to attack the camp, and they have all been executed. Only two or three hundred people can already make such a noise that people can't rest."
"The king is worried that Nahata sent people to die every night, but our soldiers will not get a good rest, and will become tired soldiers by then."
Qian Jiujiu immediately understood that the mourning army must be defeated. Thinking of this, she also frowned. For the first time, she felt that ancient wars were different from modern ones.
In ancient times, wars were actually paid for by human lives. No wonder there was a saying that a general will be successful, and he sighed: "Hey, that General Hada, why doesn't he take the lives of those soldiers like this?"
But Mu Yexiao snorted coldly: "Those are old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers. If they go back alive, they will waste Ningguo's food and money to resettle them."
"So the general practice of hada is to send it to death."
Qian Jiujiu suddenly felt angry, how could he make a show? It was unbelievable, and he glanced at Mu Yexiao: "Ningguo's generals are so cruel."
"What about the emperor of Ningguo? Is he still the same brutal?"
But Mu Yexiao shook his head: "That's not true, the emperor of Ningguo is still very close to the government and loves the people, but he is a bit ambitious."
The corner of Qian Jiujiu's mouth twitched, isn't this nonsense? How can war be waged without ambition? But before Qian Jiujiu could speak, Mu Yexiao continued to speak.
"Actually, many of these soldiers are victims of disasters in Ningguo. They have nowhere to go. Only men join the army. At least they can have food. Ningguo is different from my Dazhou."
"In the past year, there have been droughts and floods. The treasury should not be sufficient."
Qian Jiujiu's eyes widened: "The national treasury is not sufficient, yet they dared to start a war. Although there were some minor disasters in the Great Zhou Kingdom last year, they didn't lose much."
"Are you saying that Ningguo is crazy to launch a war at this time? Isn't there already a large number of disaster victims in their country?"
Mu Yexiao nodded: "That's why there are a lot of people who go to the battlefield to die."
Qian Jiujiu was immediately depressed, General Hada of Ningguo is really shameless, because there are too many people and he can't support them, so he came up with such a poisonous plan to send these people to death.
It is unreasonable that the enemy troops who are still passing by can't rest when they are dying. Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu so angrily: "Okay, I've already arranged this matter."
"The resting soldiers are divided into two groups. One group rests during the day and the other group rests at night. Those who don't rest are responsible for vigilance. There will be no major problems."
Even though she said so, Qian Jiujiu still hated Hada's despicableness, no, she had to find a way to make Hada suffer too.
But Mu Yexiao couldn't bear Qian Jiujiu's hard work: "Okay, you should rest quickly, for the sake of the baby, the baby needs to get enough rest."
Qian Jiujiu snorted twice, but fell asleep next to Mu Yexiao, and when Qian Jiujiu got up the next morning, Mu Yexiao was no longer by her side.
For the conversation between the two last night, Qian Jiujiu still remembered it in his heart, Xiaoman quickly brought the food, looked at Xiaoman: "Xiaoman, that General Hada is simply too shameless."
Qian Jiujiu said angrily what General Hada said, and Xiao Man, who grew up in a peaceful era, was also very angry: "No, we must teach this person a lesson."
While talking, Xiaoman said beside Qian Jiujiu: "By the way, you don't even know, let me tell you, I went to see those weapons, and there are no large weapons."
"How about I make them a trebuchet?"
Qian Jiujiu's eyes lit up instantly: "This is a good idea, this way you can directly throw the fireball into the opponent's granary and burn the opponent's granary."
"Ningguo is so poor, there is no food and grass, I see what they have to do with their lives, and they will definitely surrender."
The two hit it off immediately, so after eating, Xiaoman found a quill, and then some paper, and started to draw a trebuchet, you know this ancient thing.
Both of them have only seen each other on TV, but fortunately, Xiaoman, a talented student in the Department of Architecture, is here, and the principle of leverage or something is considered a small problem.
So soon, a picture of the trebuchet came out, Xiaoman looked at Qian Jiujiu: "Why don't you give it to brother-in-law now."
"It's good to do it as soon as possible. Your belly is so big now. I'm so worried."
Fortunately, she has space in her hands, no matter how serious the danger is, there should be time for treatment. Thinking of this, Xiao Man felt a little more at ease, and Qian Jiujiu had already set off with the trebuchet.
When I came to the door of the big tent where Mu Yexiao worked during the day, because Qian Jiujiu came, he naturally occupied Mu Yexiao's tent, so when Mu Yexiao wanted to discuss the war, he had already changed to a bigger tent.
The little soldier at the door of the tent saw Qian Jiujiu coming, and immediately knelt down to salute: "The villain has seen the princess, is the princess looking for the prince? The villain goes in to report."
Qian Jiujiu hummed: "Then you go quickly, you just say that this princess wants to find the prince again."
Soon the little soldier ran out again: "My lord, please come in."
Qian Jiujiu also walked in with the support of Xiao Man and Hong Ling. As soon as Qian Jiujiu entered, she saw that there were quite a few generals inside, and she was obviously not in a very happy mood.
With dark faces all of them, the corners of Qian Jiujiu's mouth twitched, maybe it was because she came and interrupted their business: "What's the princess doing here?"
Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu and suddenly opened his mouth. Qian Jiujiu looked at Mu Yexiao and took out the paper: "This is a trebuchet drawn by Xiaoman and I. It should be helpful in your war."
Hearing this, a black-faced general next to him snorted suddenly: "The general knows that the princess's medical skills are excellent, but he didn't expect that the princess also has a little research on fighting."
Qian Jiujiu shook his head: "That's not it, it's just this..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard the black-faced general speak: "Since the princess doesn't know how to fight, does it mean that fighting is easy?"
"Take out a thing at random and say that the more helpful it is for our war, women should be at home with their husbands and filial sons..."
The words of this black-faced general made Xiao Man very angry, and before he finished speaking, Xiao Man couldn't bear it anymore: "Hey, I said you are a big black face, but you didn't even look at it."
"Whether this catapult can help the prince or not, it is also the wish of our princess. It is better for you to directly accuse the princess. Why is your wife helping you in your house?"
"Do you think all women in the world should be like this? It's unreasonable. I don't know what your wife is like at home now. She might be tortured by her mother-in-law!"
The black-faced general Zhang Meng was so angry that he was half dead: "What are you, how dare you talk to this general like that?"
Xiaoman's face turned red with anger, looking at this black face, he was almost pissed off: "This girl is the step-sister of the princess, how dare you call me what?"
"Hmph! If the princess wasn't worried about the war, I wouldn't want to take out such a good thing! Someone like you is not worthy of it!"
