Chapter 440 There's Meat in the Soup
Upon hearing this, Li Tingting shook her head and gave a cold laugh.
He stepped forward, picked up a flintlock pistol, and examined it closely.
He then glanced back at the captain. "Where's the toolbox?"
Go and fetch it for me.
"Yes, madam!"
The captain looked puzzled, but dared not hesitate for a moment.
He turned and quickly went to get his toolbox.
Li Tingting, however, kept her eyes glued to the flintlock pistol in her hand.
Fingertips glided precisely across the junction of the flint wheel and the trigger.
He lightly tapped the gun barrel with his fingertip, listening to the dull echo.
A knowing glint flashed in his eyes.
A moment later, the captain hurriedly returned carrying his toolbox.
Li Tingting took the box and opened it deftly.
He took out the small wrench and cleaning rod from inside, and with a swift flick of his wrist...
He then disassembled the flintlock pistol.
The firing pin, flint, barrel, and magazine—the parts were neatly arranged on the table.
The movements were fluid and seamless, without the slightest hesitation.
Not only did the captain standing to the side widen his eyes further,
His mouth was open in a circle.
Even the guards following behind Li Tingting were stunned on the spot.
Good heavens! Although flintlock muskets hold a certain status in military camps,
It's not even as good as a fire poker, but this thing...
Even after months of trial and error, many military craftsmen might not be able to dismantle it so neatly.
Not to mention how neatly it was dismantled.
Although in their eyes, Li Tingting's martial arts skills were good,
He has a good heart, good character, a good family background, and is also very good at leading troops in battle.
To their surprise, their own empress was also incredibly skilled at disassembling guns.
Li Tingting manipulated the parts with her fingertips, putting the misaligned firing pin back in place.
The gun barrel was then cleaned of accumulated dust using a cleaning rod.
Finally, the disassembled parts were reassembled one by one.
He weighed it in his hand, and a satisfied smile finally appeared in his eyes.
She strode out, carrying her flintlock pistol.
The cold wind whipped up dust and stung her face, but it didn't stop her from walking.
"Your Majesty! Absolutely not!"
The captain was terrified at the sight and quickly chased after him to block his way.
His voice trembled, "This firearm has an extremely strong recoil."
Even a strong, ordinary man needs to stand firmly before he can start it.
"Your status is so high, you absolutely mustn't touch the trigger!"
"Get out!"
Without turning her head, Li Tingting finished giving her instructions and continued aiming ahead.
The captain wanted to persuade her further, but he was intimidated by the cold light in her eyes.
They didn't dare move an inch further.
She stood still in the open space, gazing at the old locust tree about forty paces ahead.
Grip the gun firmly with both hands, shoulders slightly lowered.
His posture was just as perfect as it was back in the military training grounds.
"boom--"
A loud bang shook the very air.
The recoil made her arm slightly numb, but it didn't affect her aim at all.
The bullet embedded itself precisely in the trunk of the old locust tree, sending wood chips flying.
The gunshot instantly alerted the guards in the camp.
Dozens of people rushed over in a panic, weapons in hand.
He looked around nervously, then glared at the garrison captain.
"What happened? What's going on? Why was there such a loud bang?"
Li Tingting slowly lowered the gun and dusted off her hands.
Turning to look at the chaotic guards, his tone remained calm and unwavering:
"It's nothing, I was just testing the gun. You may all leave."
The quality of this gun is really poor, but at least it provides a basic level of quality.
They can be taken back to the palace for thorough study and modification.
......
"In a little while, those soldiers who went out for extra training will be back."
All of you, keep a close eye on them!
No one is allowed to bring weapons into the camp.
If even the slightest mistake occurs, we cannot bear the responsibility.
Do you understand? "
There stood a guard captain from the camp, addressing a group of guards at the front of the formation.
"Yes! Sir."
"By the way, who is in charge of supervising Her Majesty's meals and water intake today?"
"Reporting to my lord, it is I!"
"Stop talking nonsense and just report the situation."
In reality, the head guard didn't care who was in charge.
He just wanted to know the result.
"My lord, the army's drinking water is all taken from the river."
With the brothers watching over the whole process, all the vegetables and meats were boiled before being cut.
"Okay! Great, that's all for now. Everyone, hurry up and change shifts."
After hearing this, the head guard waved his hand, signaling everyone to disperse.
But the guard added,
"My lord, but the Empress Dowager has already ordered that her meat be confiscated."
It was all put into the soldiers' soup.
He planned to share the same lunch with all the soldiers.
"What! Damn it, why didn't you come and report this sooner?"
Were all the food supplies in the army carefully monitored?
Since it was almost mealtime, the head guard couldn't investigate further.
Given enough time, that guard would definitely get kicked a few times.
"Yes, yes, yes! Sir, we were watching the whole time."
"Get out of here, get out of here! Get to your post now."
After roaring a few times, the head guard quickly dismissed the guards below.
After everyone had left, he hurriedly ran to Wei Yufeng to report.
The head guard changed his tone from that of the Heavenly King earlier.
He switched to the demeanor of a dutiful grandson, bowing and scraping the entire time.
He then reported the matter in detail with a forced smile.
Wei Yufeng frowned, sighed, and said, "Alright, alright."
When you get back, remember to tell the guys down there to keep a close eye on things.
The Empress Dowager is very approachable; she will definitely serve you bowls and chopsticks.
He ran into the group of soldiers and chatted with them while eating.
It's better to be safe than sorry; what if some scoundrels are mixed in with them?
We can't handle the consequences.
"Yes, yes, yes! As expected, Chief Guard's considerations are very thorough."
The captain of the guard nodded vigorously with a big smile, not forgetting to offer a flattering compliment.
Before long, the sound of orderly footsteps could be heard outside the camp gate.
Amidst the rising dust, Li Hai led his soldiers, who had gone out for extra training, back to camp in a grand procession.
The soldiers were all drenched in sweat, their clothes completely soaked.
His face was etched with hunger.
But seeing the guards on duty at the camp gate, and remembering that the Empress Dowager was in the camp,
Everyone stopped in their tracks and deftly removed their weapons from their waists.
They were handed over to the guards for safekeeping without a single complaint.
After handing over their weapons, the group could no longer suppress their cravings.
They rushed headlong towards the cooking camp.
The sound of footsteps made the ground tremble slightly.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! If we're too late, we might not even be able to get any steamed buns!"
"Damn it, stop pushing me! Are you some kind of reincarnated ghost?"
Amidst the commotion, everyone rushed into the cooking camp.
Someone was the first to pick up their bowl, and had just taken a sip of the hot soup when...
He exclaimed in surprise, "Hey? There's meat in this soup!"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding soldiers were all taken aback.
They all lowered their heads and rummaged through the soup in their bowls, and sure enough, they saw diced meat sinking to the bottom.
The aroma instantly filled my nostrils.
"Haha, there really is meat! It's so different when the Empress Dowager is here."
Even we got a sip of soup.
Upon hearing this, the soldiers burst into laughter.
The cook, who was serving soup, laughed and raised his voice:
"This is the Empress Dowager's own meat."
"They all went into our soup, humph! Otherwise, how would you have gotten a sip of this soup?"
