The little cook in the book has fallen asleep
Chapter 86 What? Silver mine! Should I run or not?
"Lord Cheng, we found a nest in this mountain village. There are many refugees inside! There is also a dungeon in the back with many children!" Chief He's men reported to Cheng Yiyu and others.
"Where is Chief He?" Cheng Yiyu and the other two immediately panicked. Could this be the Shen family's mine?
Is it too late for them to run away now? No, if they run away, what will happen to the refugees and displaced persons who have been captured?
And this mine. If they leave now, it will be difficult for them to go up this mountain again in the future!
"Our leader is waiting for you in the dungeon in front!" said the guard, and then pointed to the back of the stronghold, which was full of dungeons and many people were imprisoned!
"Xiao Ou, how far is this place from the capital?" Cheng Yu asked Xiao Ou distractedly.
If they really accidentally entered the Shen family's mine, then the Shen family's backup plan should be in place! After all, a silver mine that can sustain a family's expenses is a big loss for the Shen family!
The Shen family will not let them leave here alive. Even if they go down the mountain now, it will be too late!
So should I run or not? It’s better not to run or not to run!
"It will take a day's journey!" Although Xiao Ou was not smart, he knew that their current situation was very dangerous.
"Xue'er, do you have a token that can mobilize the nearby military camps?" Cheng Yu began to try every possible means, hoping that Xue'er would have a token.
"I... I don't have it! But... my brother does!" Murong Xue'er was a little angry. Why didn't she bring the token with her, just in case!
"However, I have my father's private soldiers!" Murong Xueer said proudly.
It was the person chosen by her uncle the Emperor for her father!
Cheng Yu: Is this something I can listen to?
"No, we can't touch Prince Yu's private soldiers. Let me think about it!" Cheng Yu sat at the table with a cup of tea and started thinking.
Oh, her adoptive father? But her adoptive father is still in the Western Province, two days away from here.
What should she do?
"Sister, I have an idea!" Cheng Zhiwen thought of something and said immediately.
"Third brother, you say!" Cheng Yu knew very well the importance of three cobblers being better than one Zhuge Liang.
"When Chief He and I attacked from the front gate, if you hadn't drugged the people in the back, we would have never been able to get in! In other words, this mountain stronghold is easy to defend but difficult to attack!" Cheng Zhiwen said.
"Yes, it was indeed difficult when we came up. They had only a dozen people, and it made it difficult for us, dozens of people, to move forward." Cheng Liyao also said.
"So, just reinforce the front gate and guard it well! The only breakthrough point of this mountain stronghold is the back mountain you climbed up!
Since this bandit is affiliated with the Shen family, then the Shen family must know the road to the back mountain!" Cheng Yiyu also thought of this.
"As long as we go to the back and block the retreat, the stronghold here will be safe for the time being! Then we will definitely be able to wait for the reinforcements to arrive!" Chief He also said.
"I have an immature idea, but I don't know whether I should say it or not!" Cheng Xiaoba raised his hand silently. He was thinking about pouring shit down from above!
"Stop talking! Children shouldn't interrupt when adults are talking!" Cheng Zhiwen patted his brother's shoulder. All his brother's ideas were bad.
"I have an idea," Cheng Yu walked to the ground and picked up a branch, asking Cheng Yiyu and the others to follow her, as she was going to draw a sketch.
"Brothers, look, we climbed up from this slope. It's relatively flat here. What if I do this?" Cheng Yu drew a few hills and marked the places with gentler slopes.
Cheng Zhiwen: So you understand?
Cheng Yiyu: So you understand!
Cheng Liyao: Don’t call me if you need to use your brain!
Chief He: I will do whatever you tell me to do!
"Look, if I hollow out this place and make a trap, and then put some sharpened bamboos in the ditch, and then they fall in, wow, without losing a single soldier!" Cheng Yu thought of the ambush he saw in his previous life. The sharpened bamboo could easily eliminate an enemy.
Then she made the slope of the hill 90 degrees and made it a little higher. People stood on it to water the ground, making it impossible for them to climb up.
It’s a pity that there is no oil, otherwise she would definitely have a BBQ outdoors!
"Brother, do you understand everything?" Cheng Yu looked at her brothers who were looking at her in confusion. What she said was hard to understand?
“Hehehehehe, I understand and I don’t understand, you have to take us to see it in person, then we can make it according to your ideas!
But it sounds great, so I agree with it wholeheartedly!" Cheng Lixiao was the first to express his opinion, thinking that his sister's idea was a good one.
"I agree too!" Cheng Yiyu has complete trust in his sister!
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
"I agree! But sister, can the water splashing be replaced with the one in the toilet?" Cheng Xiaoba enthusiastically put forward his opinion.
"Of course, myna, you have such a strong taste!" Cheng Yu said with a smile.
Cheng Xiaoba laughed!
“Chief He, go to the county town surrounding the mountain stronghold and buy enough food.
Xue'er, lend me a few of your secret guards. I want them to deliver a letter to my great uncle.
Three brothers, please help me persuade those imprisoned refugees to help us set traps and guard the gate!
"Brother, you and uncle come and help me make some experiments! We'll let those refugees help us later! The more the better!" Cheng Yu arranged everything in an orderly manner. Her calm appearance often made people forget that she was just a child under three years old.
"Okay, I'll go!" Leader He has been with the Cheng brothers and sisters for a long time, and his personalities have become much more lively. He led his men down the mountain quickly!
He didn't care who this little girl was. He would definitely be right to listen to her. That little head of his was really useful!
He had to prepare a week's worth of food early, and then come back to see what this imaginative little girl could come up with.
Cheng Lixiao accepted his fate and went to the back mountain to cut bamboo with his father and two uncles!
Cheng Yu dictated to Cheng Yiyu to write a letter to Zheng Yexi, asking for help from her uncle in her own tone!
Murong Xueer also followed suit and made the situation sound even more critical, asking for help from her uncle the emperor and her father. The way that villain seemed to have succeeded was even more smug than Cheng Yu!
“Yueyi, you must remember to give this letter to my father, and this one to my uncle.
Just say that I, Jinghong, have to stay here to guard the mine, and ask them to send someone to pick me up!" Murong Xueer is also an acting genius, and her tearful appearance makes Yueyi feel distressed.
"By the way, Brother Yueyi, you guys go out from the back mountain. The Shen family must have spies nearby, so be careful!" Cheng Yu said with a heavy face.
After all, the Shen family is a noble family with many minions. Yue Yi and his men have never shown up in public, so they are the most suitable!
"Princess, Miss Cheng, I will definitely fulfill my mission!" Yue Yi bowed with Yue Er and Yue San and walked towards the back mountain.
"Nannan, what do you think we should do?" Cheng Jin and Cheng Shang carried the thin bamboo into the gate of the village.
"Let's talk about it after my brother and his friends bring the thick bamboos!" While Cheng Yu was speaking, Cheng Lixiao and his friends came in carrying the big bamboos!
Cheng Yu took out a wooden stick and a knife, marked the distance, then took out the flat-head chisel from the warehouse and drilled holes in the thin bamboo, and then put the thin bamboo sharpened by Cheng Shang in!
"Will this work?" Cheng Xiaoba looked at this thing with suspicion. Why did he feel that the tip was not sharp at all? How could it possibly hurt anyone?
"Xiao Ba, go play in the mud!" Cheng Tian said to Cheng Xiao Ba with disdain. He was fortunate enough to see someone use bamboo as arrows to kill an enemy general in seconds.
He thinks his little girl is so smart!
"Dad, you are biased!" Cheng Xiaoba called him scum!
"Go play!" Cheng Zhiwen and the other two also came back with the refugees.
Now they are watching Cheng Jin and his brothers making weapons. They said this thing is called a whisk and it is as useful as an arrow.
Cheng Yiyu and his two brothers were extremely happy. When these refugees heard that he was going to deal with the Shen family, they all followed him eagerly without them having to spend any energy trying to persuade them.
"Third Young Master, you've come at the right time. We've cooked porridge here. Take them to eat some first!" Liu Hui, together with several aunts and children, cooked three full pots of porridge.
Fortunately, it was a bandit’s den. There were four or five pots and plenty of bowls, enough for the refugees to eat.
It turned out that just now, the old lady and the children who were imprisoned by the bandits were released by Chief He and his men, and they hurried to help.
“How can this be tolerated?” There were also some refugees who knew propriety, righteousness, and integrity, and they refused again and again.
They were enslaved by the Shen family, and now they came out to help the Cheng family set traps for revenge. However, before they did anything, they had to eat a meal from Lord Cheng and his family.
"Don't be polite, everyone. From now on, you will help me. Thank you for your hard work! Don't fight them yet. Wait a moment!" Cheng Yu grabbed a handful of soil from the ground and sprinkled it into several pots!
"Everyone hasn't eaten properly for a long time, so you can't drink too fast. Now everyone knows that there is sand in this porridge, so everyone should drink it slowly!" Cheng Yiyu saw that someone wanted to scold Cheng Yu, and immediately explained.
"Thank you, my lords, thank you, Princess, and thank you, Miss Cheng!" When the three Cheng Yiyu brothers went to persuade them, they had already revealed their identities.
"Everyone, eat quickly. Only when you are full will you have the energy to work! We have tough battles to fight tomorrow!" Cheng Zhiwen also said.
Only if everyone is willing to cooperate with them will they have a chance to wait for support from the court.
By the time the refugees had finished their porridge, the three Cheng Jin brothers had already made a row of things that looked like wolf-whisks.
"Who is stronger? Come with me to dig the soil!" After letting them rest for a while, Cheng Yiyu went to dig the flat slope behind the village!
"Let's!"
"We're coming too!"
Almost all the men raised their hands, except for a few who were lazy and unwilling to move. Cheng Yu had made a decision in his mind.
Lock them up at night and don't give them any good food! Humph, what a lazy and gluttonous creature!
"Okay, let's change sides. Bring the rope!" Cheng Liyao instructed the guards below, then took out a long bamboo and hammered it straight down on the flat top. He stopped only when it was about three-fifths of the way in.
He took the rope brought by the guard, tied it to the bamboo, and then tied a large basket to the other end of the rope.
"Dig, dig the soil into the basket, and then brothers and sisters above, pull the soil up and pile it on the slope!" Cheng Yiyu and his men immediately climbed out of the bamboo and started digging the soil.
"The steeper the slope, the better!" said Cheng Liyao.
In this way, everyone took turns. When they were tired, they went to the top of the slope to pull soil. When they had rested enough, they went down the slope to dig soil. Everyone worked together and cooperated very well. At this time, the slope gradually became steeper.
How could Cheng Xiaoba be considered a social hero? At this moment, he is transporting his secret weapon with his new little brother (refugee)!
"Brother, is this really necessary?" asked a refugee child.
"Do you think they felt sorry for you when they beat you?" Cheng Xiaoba did not answer his question directly, but let him answer the question himself.
Cheng Xiaoba: Who said I have a relationship with shit? I think it is useful, right? I have eaten shit, and I want these people to have a taste of it too!
"We must do it!" A group of younger brothers were so excited that they couldn't control themselves. Those people beat them so much in the past!
"Okay, that's enough, let's take a break!" Cheng Yu looked at the slope which was getting steeper and steeper. Even if someone came to attack tonight, they might not be able to get up.
"Then let's go back and rest. Miss Cheng, you should take a rest too!" The refugees looked at Cheng Yu and said.
Who would have thought that Miss Cheng, who was over three years old and looked so delicate, could pick up the axe and chop the bamboo with great skill. The bamboo head was even sharper than the one they had cut!
"Okay, let's all take a break!"
The lights in the village gradually went out and everyone went to rest!
"Ah! Someone is attacking us!"
"Night raid!"
"Night raid!"
