"I will report it to your father in a moment. Once he nods, we can start mass production." Lai Yueqi smiled and stroked Xiao Fuling's little head.
The wind and rain outside the window are getting heavier and heavier, and the cool wind blowing the raindrops towards the earth is roaring, causing the windows of the main building of Juexiangyuan to sway. The exotic flowers and plants in the building also sway left and right under the cool breeze.
Swing it to the right.
"What about Hai Jie?" Xiao Fuling nodded and let go of his hand. The joy and smile on his face gradually faded away.
The blueprint of the Fire Dragon Spear was brought by Hai Jie. Logically speaking, this ghost can be regarded as a great contributor to the Jiuyou Kingdom. However, Xiao Shizhu has not allowed this ghost to become an official in the Jiuyou Kingdom. He only asked Lu Wu to give him a lot of ghost coins.
and a house in Yuque City, so that he could have a place to stay in Jiuyou Kingdom; Xiao Fuling, who was not clear about the reason, was very puzzled and always felt that his father's treatment of Hai Jie was somewhat "ungrateful".
Xiao Fuling is still a bit young and naive; even though a human soul like Hai Jie was forced to have no other choice by the Northern Yin Dynasty and came to join the Jiuyou Kingdom, his father also provided firearms technology to the Northern Yin Dynasty.
Xiao Shizhu can take him in and pay a high price to buy the craftsmanship and technology they have, but they will never reuse him out of kindness, let alone let him enter the core of various departments of Jiuyou Kingdom.
This is to both use it and prevent it. Only in this way can we ensure that the secrets of Jiuyou Kingdom will not be leaked and the advanced firearms technology will not be leaked.
When Lai Yueqi saw that she asked this question with a slight frown, she knew that Xiao Fuling had kind thoughts, so she smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will report him for credit; but can I find him an official position?"
It depends on your father’s mood.”
At this time, the maids came in to serve tea. Lai Yueqi simply stopped talking and took Xiao Fuling to sit among the exotic flowers and plants in the building. She took the hot tea brought by the maids and tasted it carefully.
"Fu Ling, Hai Jie is from the Northern Yin Dynasty after all. And if his father hadn't been plotted against him, he would never have come to Jiuyou Kingdom. Do you understand?" After the maids retreated, only one person was left in the building.
Himself and Xiao Fu
After Ling, Lai Yueqi held the quilt in her hand and gently scraped the tea powder in the cup: "The most important thing is that his father first provided the technology of the Fire Dragon Spear to the Fengdu Army. It is normal for your father to die at sea.
”.
Lai Yueqi would never act out of emotion in the face of major issues of right and wrong; even though Old Man Hai was kind to her, and the Fire Dragon Spear technology that Old Man Hai gave to the Fengdu Army was flawed, Lai Yueqi fully agreed with Xiao Shizhu's decision on whether to reuse Hai Ji.
.
"Hmm." Xiao Fuling nodded as if he understood, and asked thoughtfully after a while: "The key is that they sold the Fire Dragon Spear technology to the Beiyin Dynasty first, so my father did not dare to reuse Hai
"Exhausted? Giving him money and a place to live is just to establish a benevolent and righteous image of Jiuyou Country, right?"
"Yeah." Lai Yueqi smiled softly, put down the tea cup and looked at Xiao Fuling thoughtfully, and said slowly: "This is what your father often tells you about how to employ people; you can't treat everyone equally, you must score points.
People can do things differently."
Lai Yueqi also worked in the black market before entering the palace, and she also had many ghosts under her command. To manage these ghosts, she had to use human methods.
Obviously, Lai Yueqi knew how to manage people better than Xiao Fuling at this time. It was precisely because of her advice that Xiao Fuling suddenly became enlightened and learned a lot from it.
"That's right." Xiao Fuling stopped puzzling and smiled relievedly: "If Hai Jie's father had not been plotted, we might not know about the Fire Dragon Spear until now, let alone have the technology of the Fire Dragon Spear to improve it;
We still don’t know how many casualties our army will suffer when encountering the Fengdu Army armed with fire dragon spears.”
"So, it's not that your father is cruel, but that Hai Jie and his son cannot be completely trusted!" Lai Yueqi slowly turned her head, looked at Xiao Fuling, and said solemnly: "Imagine, if Old Man Hai is not plotted, or
He didn't expect that he would be plotted and left a suicide note in advance for Hai Jie to defect to Jiuyou Kingdom. Will the technology of Fire Dragon Spear still flow into our country?".
"I understand." Xiao Fuling, who had fully awakened, shouted to Lai Yueqi: "Then Riyue Niang, tell Hai Jie that you will report to my father and give him an opportunity to serve the Jiuyou Kingdom.
Kind words.”.
"You are the only one who is clever." After praising her, Lai Yueqi pursed her lips and chuckled: "But it's okay as long as you know this, and don't spread it outside."
"Hehe." Xiao Fuling also smiled, then nodded in agreement.
"My lord." Just as she responded, Fan Jinhong, who now had only one arm, strode in, stood in front of her and said loudly: "Master Wu Xiaohui, the captain of Yuque City, wants to see you."
"It's so late, did he say what happened?" After looking at the dark sky outside the window, Xiao Fuling turned back and looked at Fan Jinhong with a slight frown.
"It's about the prisoners who participated in Chang Wusui and Ju Lingqi's rebellion a few days ago." Fan Jinhong returned with his jaw slightly lowered.
"Let him come in." Xiao Fuling said and raised his teacup again.
"No." After responding, Fan Jinhong retreated.
After a while, wearing Wu Bian and a crimson straight-collared gauze robe, with a green jade shaman Xiao Hui hanging around his waist, he walked in, scratching his ears and cheeks.
As a monkey demon in the demon soul, Wu Xiaohui, like his father Wu Zhiqi, would feel sick all over without scratching his head and ears for a minute. Ghosts who have dealt with their father and son all know this little problem, and naturally they will not deal with it over time.
They care.
"My lord, Mrs. Lai." Standing in front of Xiao Fuling, Wu Xiaohui bowed respectfully to the two ghosts first, and then began scratching his head and head as he had become accustomed to: "More than six hundred people participated in the rebellion before.
"We are a prisoner, and both the lord and the mother of the country have said that it is up to you, lord, to decide."
At this time, Xiao Fuling had long thought about it, and did not think too much about it at the moment. He just said lightly: "Are the various counties of Nanman building water canals and official roads? Give them to Lord Julong and let him use them to build water canals and official roads.
Just wait.”…
Fenglinzhou is on the southern border of the Bear Country, where Limu and Nvba were stationed before. The scorched earth can be seen, and a strong wind with a slight smell of gunpowder smoke blew by, blowing away the bodies spread on the ground.
The bloody powder is flying in the wind.
Ji Meng led an army to attack this place at night, and after almost wiping out all the Xiong troops stationed here, he built his own camp on the bloody powder that their corpses turned into.
Ji Meng was not in a hurry to march into the army; first of all, the rainy season in Fenglinzhou had arrived, with light rains for three days and heavy rains for two days. The firearms of the Beiyin Dynasty were not waterproof. Once they were wet by rain in the wild, they would naturally disappear.
France opened fire.
Moreover, when attacking during the rainy season, the muddy ground will only slow down the marching speed.
Secondly, he was waiting for a weapon, a weapon called the Fire Dragon Spear.
Although Ji Meng has never seen a fire dragon gun, as far as he knows, this new type of gun can fire fire bombs. When the fire bombs fall to the ground or hit the target and explode, a ball of flames will burst out, with great power and killing range. Not too small.
Coupled with the bombardment of the Netherworld Ghost Cannon, the Fengdu Army will be even more powerful.
On the night when he attacked the nvba camp at night and blasted Limu to pieces with artillery, he received an express message from Liutianzhou. It said that the first batch of fire dragon guns produced had already been produced. Of the two, half was given to King Taishan who was far away in Dongyi Continent, while the rest was already loaded on a ship and was to be shipped to Ji Meng.
Therefore, Ji Meng did not take advantage of the victory to pursue the victory. He simply set up camp near the mountains and rivers where the Bear Kingdom's garrison had been before. He placed Luzhai trenches and gun towers all around the camp, surrounding the entire military camp like a copper wall and an iron wall. Let the troops rest and recuperate.
This made Xiong Guojun, who was huddled in a poor mountain city not far away, feel even more uneasy. If you advance into Ji Meng's camp, you can attack the city, and if you retreat, you can defend the Fengdu Army's food road, even in less than half a cup of tea. Here, he returned to support the Qige County behind him.
However, Xiong Guojun was afraid of the artillery and guns in Ji Meng's hands. Whether they were advancing or retreating, the two sides simply remained in a stalemate.
In the evening, the originally clear blue sky suddenly became dense with dark clouds, and a howling wind suddenly arose, followed by increasingly violent showers. In less than a moment, the entire Fengdu Army camp was filled with Mud everywhere.
In the brightly lit Chinese army tent, Ji Meng, who had not yet taken off his armor, stood in front of the map, staring at the terrain on the map in a daze.
Although the night attack that day killed Limu and dealt a big blow to the Xiong army, it allowed Ji Xuanyuan's daughter Nuba to escape. At this time, Nuba was hiding in Qiongshan City not far away.
This little girl is famous for being good at fighting; Ji Meng is not afraid of Li Mu, and he doesn't even pay attention to Ji Xuanyuan's number one general Ying Long. These ghosts all have the reputation boasted by the official and unofficial historians of the world. When it comes to marching, fighting, and arranging troops, they are even worse than female slaves.
So as soon as the Fire Dragon Spear arrives, Ji Meng will storm Qiongshan City and capture or kill the female slayer alive.
"Commander." While Ji Meng was concentrating on studying the terrain on the map, his deputy general strode in.
"Have you checked it out?" The ghost general stood next to Ji Meng, and Ji Meng asked calmly; but his eyes were still wandering on the map in front of him.
"Yes, it has been found out. According to reports from our army's spies who sneaked into Qiongshan City, the female slave has been depressed and depressed these past few days." After the ghost general saluted, he nodded slowly and returned: "And Ji Xuanyuan also A hundred thousand troops were urgently mobilized and rushed to the city. However, the sudden arrival of the army made the ghosts and civilians in the city panic."
"The war is in turmoil. Even without the sudden mobilization of the hundred thousand troops, there is no way that the fortress here would be stable and peaceful." Ji Meng closed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment after his words, frowned and said suspiciously: "It's the female slaves. His attitude is a bit abnormal."
"She is a famous ghost general in the underworld. She knows very well that victory and defeat are common matters for military officers. How can she care about temporary gains and losses?" After glancing at the deputy general with a puzzled expression, Ji Meng frowned a little tighter.
"Do you suspect that she is pretending to be fake on purpose?" the lieutenant general exclaimed, and then muttered suspiciously: "But she doesn't know that there are our spies in the city, who is she pretending to show?".
"It means that she already knows about the spies. You must quickly inform the patrolling ghost general and ask him to strengthen his defense and vigilance." Ji Meng's heart skipped a beat and he gave the decisive order to the ghost general.
"Could it be that you are too nervous?" The ghost general smiled lightly and said somewhat nonchalantly.
But just as he finished speaking, bursts of screams suddenly rang out amidst the sound of wind and rain outside the tent. Ji Meng was startled, and after muttering something bad in his heart, he strode out of the tent.
The ghost general also hurriedly followed.
As soon as I came out, I saw the west side of the camp. Fires were everywhere and noisy in the wind and rain. In the firelight, thick smoke could be seen everywhere in the military tents, the sound of swords clashing, ghost shouts and heart-wrenching screams were mixed together, and it was tragic.
abnormal.
The Fengdu Army was completely unexpected. The cavalry from the Xiong Kingdom came out of the wind and rain like lightning, catching them off guard. (To be continued)
