Traveling through time and space to meet a replacement bride? But I’m a man!

That night, even before going to bed, the little ones would cling to Xu Wenyan.

It's also because they are young and can fit in with a few people.

The next day Huo Min was unhappy.

“Brother Xu why should I help you sleep with you, these little guys will do.”

Xu Wenyan was kneading dough in his hand and didn't want to pay attention to him: "How old are you? How old are they?"

“I am three years old.”

"Brother Xu, I am three years old too." Xiaohu also got up at this time and heard the conversation between the two.

"Okay, okay, Huo is three years old, Hu is three years old, I won't sleep with a three-year-old, go wash up and get ready for dinner."

With the arrival of the children, Xu Wenyan felt that there was no difference from being in the village.

"Wang Wang!"

When Xu Wenyan heard the barking of a dog at the door, he realized that Black Bear had also come. When the dog was around, he generally wouldn't let anyone in.

"Wen Yan." Uncle Ye was standing at the door, probably having something to say.

"Black Bear." Xu Wenyan waved at the black bear. It was quite troublesome for the dog to come to a new place and recognize people and get familiar with the terrain of its home.

"I'm here to call Huo Min, and by the way, I'm telling you that we're going to gather the people, and it's almost time to start.

Including Fu Jian's men, we have nearly 300,000 troops available. I plan to start in winter."

Xu Wenyan nodded, winter attack was a good choice.

First of all, they are few in number, so if they need to go out, basically all of them have to go out, but the soldiers in the capital are different.

Winter tends to be a little looser and build-up is slower than in other seasons.

If the enemy reinforcements were slow to arrive, their chances of winning would be much greater.

Moreover, hot weapons can be used to quickly occupy the northern states and counties. By the time the military intelligence was transmitted back, the border cities had almost been occupied.

The first is Lan County. Huo Min will discuss with Lin Zhengjie and Lu County Magistrate. If they agree, it will save a lot of trouble. If they don't agree, it will not take much manpower to occupy the current Lan County.

It can be said that Uncle Ye and Huo Min can handle it alone.

Although Uncle Ye's personal space is only ten square meters, if these ten square meters are used to store guns and ammunition, it would not be too easy to attack from the inside.

Of course, this is a story for later. After Qian Sen came back, the problem of bullets and guns was left to him.

Xu Wenyan discussed tactics with Xiaoman, Uncle Ye, and Fu Jian.

"We've made it clear in advance that I will only provide technical support. I won't go in leading the troops to fight." Although the chances of winning this battle are very high, Xu Wenyan will not take the risk.

He didn't want Chen Sanlin to be a widow, especially after seeing these little guys.

"Of course. The technologies you provide are worth thousands of troops." Uncle Ye agreed without hesitation.

Xiaoman spread out the map and pointed to the front of Lan County: "The largest county in the border area is Tianshui. There is a new mayor there, a third-rank official from the capital.

The military strength has also been greatly increased. It is not so easy to take Tianshui."

"Well, we fought all the way from Jiuquan to Tianshui, then from Tianshui to Hami, and finally slowly captured the small county."

Uncle Ye stretched out his hand and pointed on the map at the original route, as well as where each city would be easier to attack, especially on snowy days.

The troops that first followed Huo Min had also figured out the key points of fighting in the snow. These were experiences gained through countless lessons learned through blood and sweat.

The reason why Huo Min was able to repel the Hu people was not only because of his superb martial arts and excellent equipment, but also because he had enough loyal subordinates.

When fighting with a smaller force against a larger one, what matters is one’s mental quality.

"Our people don't have that much experience, most of them are still rookies, mix our soldiers with yours.

If nothing else, those kids are definitely obedient."

Fu Jian drank a cup of almond milk. When he was at the border, the things he disliked the most were milk and goat's milk.

How come the tea made by Xu Wenyan is completely different? He can't stop drinking one cup after another. Today's pot was made by Xu Wenyan because he was so persistent.

“Well, in addition to that, Uncle Ye, you and Huo Min should select a group of elite troops, about 3,000 people. You know, we only have so many blacksmiths here.

Later, Brother Chen and I will also help. You can pick some people who know how to forge iron or are strong to follow us.

There is no problem in forging crude iron.

We will try to produce more than 3,000 guns by October. Uncle Ye, you can teach them the theoretical knowledge today."

Xu Wenyan added.

Uncle Ye snatched Fu Jian's cup and took a big sip of almond juice: "Okay, I'll go now. My elite soldiers are not here.

Xiao Huo and I have to go out for a while and will probably be back in half a month. Xiao Xu, please build a shed and I will bring back a few hundred soldiers. "

Uncle Ye patted his trouser legs and went out.

Fu Jian took the cup back with a distressed look on his face, poured the last half cup of almond dew into his hand, and held it tightly.

"Xu Wenyan, don't worry. I have already released the carrier pigeons. It won't be long before more than 300 people will come here. You will have to expand your blacksmith shop.

There is also the problem of iron ore, which I can also solve. "

Xu Wenyan also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was with a group of reliable people. Although they were not god-level teammates, at least they were not disappointing.

"Okay, I'll get busy too. Xiaoman, I'll leave the shed construction to you. Try not to build it too close to our yard, as it will block the light."

They have their backs to the mountain, and without the sun in spring, the snow will never melt.

"it is good."

The first meeting ended like this.
