Quickly travel to save the cannon fodder? No, I will just flip the table

After arriving at the border town, the Gu family did not go to the State of Wu immediately, but stayed in the territory of the State of Lin to handle the subsequent matters.

Their family's industries need to be transferred out piece by piece, and it will take time to start over with an orderly migration.

Of course, the Wu State also needs to be investigated, this is no trivial matter.

Although Gu Liliang praised the commander of the Wu State, the Third Prince, as if he were his own brother, their son's words always needed to be understood in the context of the situation.

The Gu family’s business is so big, so they naturally have their own information channels. Let’s wait and see.

However, the most urgent task is to do as his son said and deliver supplies to the 100,000 troops of Wu stationed on the border.

This can be considered as a test between both parties. So far, the Gu family is quite satisfied. Originally, their silly son said that it was half sold and half given away.

But the Third Prince said that the quality of Gu's products was good, and as long as the quality and quantity were guaranteed, they would buy them at the market price and sent the first installment of the payment.

The Gu couple did not intend to sell it to the other party at the market price, otherwise it would be insincere, but they also did not want to lose money. This time when escaping from Lin State, the Gu family still spent some money, so they finally collected the cost price.

The Marshal was also very satisfied after hearing the reply.

As for how to transport so many supplies, Qianqian submitted the defense map and duty roster of the Lin Kingdom’s border.

Let's not talk about how shocked the Third Prince was. As for the soldiers who participated in the operation, they were all confused. What happened to the sneaky and stealthy smuggling? How could it be so smooth? Following the instructions from above, it was smoother than going home.

Facing the strange gaze of the Third Prince, Qianqian secretly breathed a sigh of relief when the system said "no problem". God knew she was under a lot of pressure, and if she was not careful, something bad would happen.

Fortunately, the Third Prince took it very seriously and the soldiers he sent were experienced, so there were indeed some minor problems, but they were all avoided.

After this incident, the Third Prince almost treated Qianqian as the second Military Advisor.

Qianqian had no choice but to explain that she was just passing by and had better observation skills, but she had no tricks or anything like that.

The Third Prince just thought she was being modest. He decided to accept these people anyway, including the God of Wealth, the Know-it-all, and a gift.

After the new supplies were delivered, the soldiers in the camp took on a new look. The Third Prince did not hide his gratitude and specially held a banquet to thank Gu Liliang and his men: "Thank you so much for Mr. Gu's righteousness and Miss Lu's loyalty. I salute you."

The two men quickly picked up their glasses and took a big sip, and instantly their faces were filled with pain. The wine in the military camp was all strong liquor, not only with high alcohol content but also of poor quality.

Seeing this, the others laughed in good faith and came over to toast.

They couldn't be rude to Qianqian, but Gu Liliang and the others didn't let him go.

Originally, they looked down on this young man, who was restrained but also quite nosy and complained about everything.

Now, this is their huge gold nugget treasure, and they must make people feel the passion of the Wu State today.

Gu Liliang used to be a big eater and merrymaker, and in the beginning he would accept everyone who came to him. But later he found that this group of people drank too much, and soon they were drunk and fell under the table.

Seeing this, the Third Prince asked someone to help him go down and rest. Qianqian also wanted to follow him. This meal was horrible.

But the Third Prince did not give in: "Miss Lu, we are now ready, but the spies reported that for some reason, there is no movement."

Qianqian didn't know why, she just knew that other people thought the current leader of Lin State's army was suspicious and timid, so she told them the truth.

The authentic military advisor beside him groaned, "I think it's the incidents of the Gu family and our country's spies that made them wary, so they didn't move for the time being. But I guess that the Lin country will definitely send a vanguard to explore."

The Third Prince took over the conversation: "If they find that our army is prepared, the subsequent battle will not be fought. If not, they will surely attack."

The two men looked at each other and instantly understood what the other was thinking. They both wanted to keep these 150,000 Lin soldiers and cripple them. This way they would have time to breathe later. Otherwise, it would always be like a sharp blade hanging over their heads, which would make them terrified.

In this way, the banquet came to a temporary end, and everyone could make careful plans based on the accounts.

Qianqian quietly withdrew. She would not get involved in such matters. Things change rapidly on the battlefield, and she was very conservative even with the specific information, for fear that it would cause a butterfly effect and she would not know how she died.

In the following days, things were busy outside, and Qianqian and the others were told not to move around for the time being and to stay put for a few days.

"Is there going to be a war?" Gu Liliang was very excited.

A soldier accompanied them and he seemed a little surprised when he heard what they said. For a weak country like theirs, war means bloodshed and sacrifice. What was there to be excited about?

Qianqian understood the look in people's eyes: "Is there anything we can do?"

The soldier really wanted to say "Just stay still", but he remembered the general's instructions to "serve the people well", so he could only act like an emotionless announcer.

"You can sleep in the tent, or go to the mess to cook, or go to the weapons camp to clean weapons, or go to the military doctor's tent to help out. Well, the military doctor may not be easy to get along with, after all, there are many wounded and he tends to be irritable. Or you can go and do the laundry!"

After saying the last one, he felt that it was okay. After washing the clothes, he could mend them. It was neither dangerous nor difficult.

Qianqian opened her mouth wide and said, "Hey, young man, you are going too far. Didn't you see that Gu Liliang's face has turned black?"

Fortunately, Gu Liliang knew that now was not the time to cause trouble, and finally chose to go to the weapons camp to do odd jobs.

The soldier looked at the man suspiciously, focusing on his slender hands that had never done any work. He felt annoyed and thought to himself that he would not cause trouble for the big brothers in the weapons battalion.

But after he sent the person there, Gu Liliang was warmly welcomed, because all the shiny new weapons here were sent by Master Gu's family.

"Mr. Gu, you see, the products of the Gu family are indeed not ordinary products. They are much better than what we used before."

"By the way, with these weapons, fighting in the future won't be so difficult."

"Hey, although external objects are useful, you must not forget to practice more. Come, take this opportunity to practice more. Mr. Gu, how about trying it out?"

Gu Liliang was embarrassed. He wondered if he could compose poems and couplets. As for the sword, he had only seen girls dancing with it. Well, it was beautiful, but compared with these guys, it was probably useless.

It was also the first time he realized that he was a bit useless, so he had to quietly pick up the cloth and wipe it, thinking to himself that he had to learn something useful when he settled down.

Qianqian and Liu'er went to the military doctor's tent. After all, Qianqian was not good at cooking and she didn't like doing laundry.

As for this, I have some modern knowledge at least, so it should be useful, right?
