I will lead the whole village to occupy the land and become the king.

Jiang Qinyu was listening with great interest, but she didn't expect the fire to burn herself.

She smiled a little embarrassedly, "Uncle Chen is right. Uncle Zhao and the others are not in good health, so they should be served first. Xiao Wu is also right. Miss Yu and her servant are guests, so we can't neglect them."

"Then what do you think, madam?" Xiao Wu asked immediately.

He thought that since his wife was the hostess, she would definitely be generous enough to build a kang in Miss Yu's yard first.

Uncle Chen opened his mouth to say that he didn't need to worry about those etiquettes, but Jiang Qinyu had already spoken.

"Originally, we wanted to promote the technology of building a fire kang. Now that Uncle Chen has done it well, we can invite more people to learn. We can build two or even three places at the same time. In this way, it will only take two or three days for everything in our house to be done." Jiang Qinyu pondered.

The reason why her main courtyard was ranked last was because charcoal was always used in the main courtyard, which was much warmer than Uncle Chen and the others.

Yu Hanyan also had charcoal, but she used Lieutenant General Ling's pension to ask Uncle Chen and others to buy it.

"Madam's method is still the best," Uncle Chen immediately sided with Jiang Qinyu, "I will arrange it tomorrow."

Anyway, he would definitely put Yu Hanyan last in the list. After all, she wouldn't be frozen, and it would just take a few more days to burn charcoal.

Xiao Wu wanted to argue for Yu Hanyan again, but when he saw Jiang Qinyu had left after checking the condition of the kang, he stopped talking.

After Jiang Qinyu left, Xiao Wu finally realized what was happening and asked Uncle Chen in a low voice, "Why are you targeting Miss Yu like this? You were never like this before."

"You think I want to target her?" Uncle Chen rolled his eyes. "You're the only one who's blind. You didn't see what she's been doing recently. I won't be fooled."

The little monk was puzzled. "Why am I blind? Miss Yu is such a good person!"

"Haha, is she okay? Then if she leaves the house in the future, you can follow her!" Uncle Chen was too lazy to say more to him.

For a young man like Xiaowu, if he didn't see it with his own eyes, he wouldn't believe how bad a beautiful woman could be.

Of course, Uncle Chen didn’t think Yu Hanyan was that bad. He just couldn’t stand people who wanted to stir up trouble even though they knew the couple had a good relationship.

……

The next day, the people in the border town who had made cotton clothes took to the streets and saluted the border soldiers when they saw them.

"Thank you, General! Thank you, soldiers of the border army! For allowing us to wear such warm clothes!"

"I've already asked my daughter-in-law to get some work in the army. We have many capable people in our family and no shortage of cotton. We're willing to sew cotton clothes for the soldiers for free!"

"Oh, it's the same at my house! My daughter is very skillful and can do things quickly. I asked her to help me this morning..."

The people praised Lu Yanzheng and the soldiers, and many people who had spare energy were willing to go to the border army to sew cotton clothes for the soldiers without asking for anything in return.

On the city wall, Lu Yanzheng was wearing the modified military coat made by Jiang Qinyu, standing there with an upright figure. The soldiers beside him were also wearing cotton coats that were made overnight.

"Our general's clothes are still the best looking, and they look warmer than ours."

"That's right. I heard it was done by the Madam. Could the Madam do something bad for the General? That's impossible."

"Hehe... The general didn't forget us when he had such good things. We made the right decision to follow him!"

"Of course not! Anyway, I've followed General Ding for the rest of my life. Wherever he goes, I, Gousheng, will follow!"

"Hey, kid, you're trying to steal my words. I..."

There has been no movement from the enemy outside the city in the past few days, and the soldiers have become much more relaxed, especially since they have received new cotton clothes, which makes them feel even more encouraged.

This clothes is really warm!

Even though they used the fabric of winter clothes from the past, after adding cotton inside, it was just like covering themselves with a thick quilt, and they didn't feel cold even when standing on the city wall.

The general who was willing to distribute such good things to them and the people became a god-like figure in their hearts.

However, there is a problem.

"Deputy General Qin, when did the general get the cotton back?"

When Qin Shen heard the soldiers around him asking questions, the same doubts arose in his heart.

He was almost inseparable from Lu Yanzheng, but he had never heard of or seen Lu Yanzheng asking others or himself to buy cotton!

With so much cotton, it should be seen by people if it is transported to the border town and stored in the warehouse, right?

However, it didn't. The cotton seemed to appear out of thin air and arrived in their warehouse just like that.

"You know nothing!" Qin Shen slapped the soldier on the back of his head. "Does the general need to explain things to you clearly? Cotton is such a good thing. If I tell you in advance, won't it be snatched away by others?"

"Hehe, that's true. The general is really thoughtful." The soldier laughed and didn't ask any more questions.

Qin Shen looked at Lu Yanzheng's back and suppressed the doubts in his heart.

No matter what, the general will definitely lead the border troops and the people in the border town to live well, so what if the general is a little abnormal?

Qin Shen only recognizes people who are good to him and can avenge his cousin!

……

three days later.

In the enemy's tent, Dayuan's national defense general and the fifth prince of Xiqiang sat together again.

But this time, there was no such tension between the two of them.

"General, isn't it stupid for us to stay here? Look at how cold our soldiers are. Why aren't Lu Yanzheng and the others cold?" The fifth prince was wearing a fox fur coat and holding a hand warmer in his hand, but he still felt a little cold.

The general was also freezing, and coupled with lack of water, his lips were cracked. Whenever he spoke, they bled. "Besides waiting for reinforcements, does the Fifth Prince have any other plans?"

"It's too cowardly to keep waiting!" The fifth prince was almost depressed.

Originally, he had great ambitions to seek revenge on Lu Yanzheng, but now he was stuck in a dilemma and had to endure the freezing cold.

The general said, "Didn't your people find out there's something warm in the border town? When the reinforcements arrive and we capture the border town, everything will naturally be ours."

The joint forces of the two countries originally had only 120,000 troops, which was more than enough to deal with the 100,000 border troops. Now they have sent another 50,000 troops, a total of 170,000 troops, which is more than enough to win against the 100,000 border troops.

The general who defends the country is absolutely reluctant to retreat.

The Fifth Prince was no longer so annoyed after hearing this. He didn't really want to withdraw his troops. After all, if he returned empty-handed this time, what might be waiting for him was his eldest brother to sit on the throne of the Crown Prince.

"Our reinforcements will probably arrive tonight. What about you in Dayuan?" The fifth prince changed the subject.

The general glanced at him and said, "Our army will be there in three quarters of an hour."

"That's great," the Fifth Prince nodded, not caring about his attitude. "We'll reorganize our military affairs tomorrow and attack the city tomorrow night!"

……

"General, 20,000 Dayuan reinforcements have been spotted ten miles outside the city!"

"General, this is bad! We just received news that there are 30,000 Western Qiang soldiers seventy miles away!"

The two pieces of news came at the same time, and Lu Yanzheng, who had just returned to the army to arrange military affairs, felt a tightness in his heart.

If reinforcements from Western Qiang and Dayuan really arrive, can the border town still be defended?
