It has been more than ten days since he first arrived here, and the weather has become worse and worse. It has been snowing for the past two days, but now it has just improved, and the snow accumulated on the ground can reach the calf, which has brought great difficulties to the frontier troops. , but also because of this, the Yi people did not come to invade.

This gave Chu Key time.

Chu Yao asked Yuan Jirui to find the materials, the venue and the required utensils, then handed over the people he had brought to Chu Sui, and went into the house.

After two full days of eating and drinking in the house, Chu Yao finally made the improved blueprint.Then it will be used for experimental production.

But after Chu Yao entered the venue Yuan Jirui had found for him, he realized how stupid he was.The local tyrant was indeed a local tyrant. Chu Yao, who thought it was just a small workshop, saw a multinational company.Although it is easier to make more weapons in this way, the problem also arises, there are not enough people.

The northwestern border is bitterly cold, and because of the proximity to the barbarians, most of the people here are tough, and even a young lady can pick up a weapon to fight, but it is also because of the bitter cold, that most people, except those who have lived here for generations, will not come here.

Few people are willing to come, and even fewer craftsmen.Even if all the craftsmen in the city are gathered, compared to the huge venue, there are still very few.In the end, Chu Key ordered someone to post a solicitation order to the Prince Cheng's Mansion which was farther away. As for whether anyone would come, it was up to fate.

So far, the preparations are all done.Chu Yao asked the soldiers to familiarize themselves with the captured barbarian weapons, which was better than being caught blind after the things were made.

And because those craftsmen really knew nothing about how to make parts and assemble them, the early stage of building molds and how to arm parts were all taught by Chu Key.

Chu Yao knew about guns in his previous life, but he was not a professional after all, so he used the night time to study the problems accumulated during the day one by one.I lamented that fortunately, he got out the steelmaking technology in the early years and improved the ironmaking, otherwise it is really dead end now.

Even so, Chu Yao worked day and night, worrying about this and that, and lost weight immediately.Chu Sui felt distressed, but his younger brother was able to persuade him to leave with a few words, and Chu Yaoyang violated his advice to his younger brother to take a good rest. In the end, he could only ask the people around Chu Yao to take good care of him.

But Chu Sui couldn't persuade him, someone couldn't help it.

"My lord, the son of the world asked you to go there, saying that the food is ready."

Seeing the palace servant who appeared in front of him for the third time in the past two days, Chu Yao finally gave in.If he didn't go, it would be reported that he and Shizi were at odds.

The discerning people around Chu Key can see that his lord seems to be somewhat resistant to the visit of the prince, but this prince treats him with an indescribable feeling. Anyway, it is good, so he can't think of the matter of his lord's resistance to see the prince. untie.

In the end, the fanboys who became fans of Chu's recent actions found a reason for themselves: Your Excellency is afraid of wasting time!Your Excellency is indeed a role model for an official, a good official in the dreams of the common people!So I worked harder.

If Chu Key knew this kind of thinking, he might want to blow their heads off.It was true that he didn't want to go, but there were other reasons.

Ever since he cried in Yuan Jirui's arms that time, Chu Yao felt extremely ashamed.He, unexpectedly, cried.

Cried like an idiot!Now I don't know how to face him.

Simply do not go.

But this time, he couldn't escape anyway.Chu Yao looked up to the sky and sighed that the world was so unfair and his fate was too bad for such an innocent and pitiful person to face such an embarrassing situation.

"My minister pays homage to the prince."

Chu Yao saluted respectfully, forgetting all the intimacy that he cried on his shoulders that night, and acted like a scumbag.

The corners of Yuan Jirui's mouth were slightly pursed, knowing Chu Yao's temperament, he didn't force it, the hug that night was already a rare consolation.He couldn't ask Keyer to have the same feelings for him.

Moreover, there is a business to invite Chu Key to come this time.

"Dingguo has news. This time, I want to discuss with you. General Chu will come soon."

Did you hear from your father? !

The news was so shocking, Chu Yao was stunned for a moment, and then he was ecstatic.The reason why he has been so thin these days is that he is physically tired, and the other is that he is too worried.

"Thank you, son..."

"Yao'er, between you and me, there is no need for this."

Yuan Jirui walked to Chu Yao's side, and directly pulled back his body that was about to bend over again: "Looking for the news of the Duke is what I have to do, and you are my... Yu Li, you don't have to thank me."

"In fact, the Duke of the state should have planned it. He led people to attack the king's account of the barbarians. He wrote to me a few days ago, asking me to take over the soldiers in the border town." Thank you as an outsider.

"Brother's kindness, Yao will keep it in his heart. From now on, if there is a need for help, Yao will go all out and accompany him in life and death."

Chu Yao felt as if he was being kissed by the warm sunshine, and his whole body became warm.Yuan Jirui really thought of him and took care of him like a younger brother. In Yuan Jirui's heart, his little conflicts and awkwardness might be just like his younger brother's rebellion.

That being the case, what's the point of crying in front of your elder brother?The emotions that had been pent up in his heart for many years were swept away, Chu Yao's mood improved like never before, and his attitude towards Yuan Jirui was more casual and intimate.

Yuan Jirui, who had no idea that he had been positioned as an elder brother, was sensitive to the change in Chu Yao's attitude towards him, and his mood brightened immediately.

For a while, the host and guest enjoyed themselves.

So, when General Chu came in, the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Seeing Chu Yao, who was his eldest brother, he was very happy to pull Chu Sui into the discussion group. After analyzing the news from the three of them for a long time, they called the person who found the news to ask the scene, and finally confirmed that Ding Guogong is now It's still safe, but there may not be enough food, so they still have to transport it secretly.

"Yue'er, a group of craftsmen came to King Cheng's fief, about 40 to [-] people, all of them came after seeing the notice, you can arrange the work for them."

So far, the good news has arrived.

Chu Yue heard that there were so many people coming, she couldn't care about anything, so she hurriedly bid farewell to Yuan Jirui and her elder brother and went out.

"I hope the prince will forgive me, the younger brother is impatient and neglected."

"Yue'er has a straightforward personality and is devoted to the people. Gu knows it."

The latter two talked in detail about how to operate next, to ensure that the things that have been settled are completed without any mistakes.

Chu Yue walked to the place where the new craftsmen were housed. As Chu Sui said, there were 36 people who came, and they were all men in their prime. They were so muscular that even wearing thick clothes couldn't stop them.

Chu Yue came in front of the crowd, and without waiting for others to say hello to him, he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for coming to help me in the snow, everyone of high righteousness!"

"It's impossible!" A man raised Chu Yue's arm.

"We who can't read a few words don't know what righteousness is, but we understand that there is a problem in the frontier, and it is the people behind who suffer. My mother-in-law and children are all at home. This is not to let us go to the battlefield. What can't come!"

Others chimed in.

"My lord, you don't have to be too polite. We're here to work. Just give orders if you have something to do." Although this person didn't know who Chu Yue was, his demeanor made it clear that he was not a simple person. wrong.

At this time, it was the time for employing people, so Chu Yuebian didn't do anything to greet her, and was directly dragged into the place where gun parts were manufactured.

Chu Yue personally taught it once, and let them ask the veterans if they don't know the rest, which is quick.

These people who came here are already good players, so they are naturally quick to get started.The number of people assembled increased from ten to 25, and the efficiency went up immediately.

So far, her father has disappeared, the production of weapons has gradually increased, and the soldiers are getting on the right track step by step in the training of her elder brother. All of Chu Yue's worries have been resolved.

As soon as one relaxes, all the fatigue of these days will come over.

In front of her eldest brother, Yuan Jirui and [-] soldiers, Chu Yue fainted.

☆、Chapter 48

No one expected that Chu Yue would faint.Yuan Ji hugged him up in a panic.

"General Chu, you are in charge of the overall situation here. Somebody call the military doctor!"

Yuan Jirui took Chu Yue to the residence. Chu Sui must be assured that the prince will send someone to take care of his younger brother. After all, the way they used to get along can tell that the relationship between the two is very good.

But, the good ones are outrageous.

As Chu Yue is his own younger brother, he will also care about it in general, and will definitely ignore the small details of life.But he heard that his brother's quilts were all brought from the palace by the prince.

This time the younger brother fainted, if only he picked it up, what is the prince... the princess hug?It seems like the younger brother said the word before.

There are many contracted brothers in the army, but who does the son want?As for seeing a man like my brother?

But... Actually it is not impossible, Quan Dahui can't find a few of his younger brother's looks, and he has a good bearing, Yuan Jirui may really covet his younger brother.

Too shameless!

So when he was being instructed how to use the Yiren's strange weapon, he found that General Chu's already serious face became even more gloomy.

Here, Yuan Jirui didn't even know that his little brother had pulled out all his little thoughts.

It wasn't until he put Chu Yue on the bed without much bumps in the whole process that he breathed a sigh of relief.Observing Chu Yue at close range, Chu Yue's eyes are extremely black and blue.

Yuan Jirui looked distressed, the military situation was urgent, and the person in front of him hadn't had a good rest for a long time, so he shouldn't let him arrange his own time.

While waiting for the military doctor, Yuan Jirui thought over everything he had done since seeing Chu Yue until now.

He didn't mean anything else, he just thought that it took so much thought to love someone, especially someone who is hard to come by.Afraid that he would know, but also unwilling that he would not know.

However, Yuan Jirui's entanglement did not last long.The arrival of the military doctor saved him.

"My lord, the military doctor is here."

Yuan Jirui pulled Chu Yue's quilt up until it reached his chin, and then hurriedly let people in.

The person who came was over fifty years old, with gray beard and hair, Yuan Jirui stopped him from saluting, and hurriedly sent someone to see a doctor for Chu Yue.

The old military doctor took Chu Yue's pulse, and even though there was a nervous elder sitting next to him, he still remained motionless.After cutting the pulse for a quarter of an hour, I asked Tong'er beside me to take a pen and paper, write down the prescription, and let Tong'er decoct the medicine.

"Doctor, how is the supervisor?"

"Returning to the son, the military supervisor is just too tired. Seriously speaking, it is still a good thing."

Everyone fainted, what kind of good thing is it?

Seeing the disapproval on Yuan Jirui's face, the old military doctor stroked his beard and said, "Master Superintendent must have been exhausted day and night these days, causing his body to be unbearable, but the most important thing is that his heart is blocked and he is too preoccupied. Now I see that the pulse condition is much calmer, once you relax, your body can't stand it, which leads to fainting."

Now relieved, Yuan Jirui thanked the military doctor, "I'm sorry."

"My son is working hard for the frontier, and the military supervisor is also dedicated. There is no need to talk about it. The old man has lived here for generations, and the hatred for the barbarians is not at 01:30. The old man has to thank the two of you."

Yuan Jirui didn't speak any more, and asked the lieutenant beside him to send the military doctor away, and sat in Chu Yue's room to handle military affairs by himself.

"My lord, the medicine is ready."

"Come in." Yuan Jirui put down his pen.

Tong'er next to the military doctor wanted to feed the medicine, but Yuan Jirui spoke first: "Give me the medicine, you go outside first, and take the medicine bowl back when you're done."

Yaotong said yes, handed the bowl to Yuan Jirui, and went out.

I thought to myself that I had only heard of discord between the supervising army and the army, and this kind of relationship is so good that it is rare to see it in an ordinary brother's house.

While thinking wildly, I heard the people inside asking to get the medicine bowl, and the medicine boy drank the medicine cleanly. The medicine boy finished the task of the master, took the things and went back.When I was sorting things out, I realized that I forgot to give the bamboo tube to Shizi.

So, how is the medicine fed?

Unfortunately, only Yuan Jirui can answer this question.

Yuan Jirui stayed in Chu Yue's room until the evening, but unfortunately he hadn't woken up yet.I had to go back first.

As soon as I arrived at my place, I learned that General Chu had been waiting for a long time.

"Ask him to go to the main hall and be alone for a while."

Yuan Jirui went back to his room and changed his clothes. When he saw Chu Sui, he still had the same clothes from the morning, which showed that he was very busy.

"General Chu, what's the matter?"

"My son, half of the [-] soldiers can be equipped with weapons. After a day of teaching today, they have trained fairly well. As far as the general knows, the weapons owned by the barbarians are even lower than this number, so we are now fighting with the barbarians. Combat, at least not inferior in weapons."

In fact, since those soldiers were equipped with weapons, they were not novel observations, but watched the experienced hands demonstrate how to shoot without blinking.There are not enough bullets to allow them to practice squanderingly, so everyone practiced the movements over and over again, without even eating dinner.

Chu Sui understood them. He followed his father since he was a child, and almost grew up in the army. One moment his brother was in the army and the next moment he turned into a cold corpse, which would be uncomfortable for anyone.Therefore, the soldiers on the frontier are very reluctant to eat their flesh and drink their blood when facing the enemy.I suffered such a big loss last time, and now I have the opportunity to pay back, of course, I will work as hard as I can.

"Well, tell your subordinates to take care of the soldiers and not to be too tired. The snow has stopped, and the barbarians will attack again in a short time, so the soldiers should be ready."

"In addition, don't let the people below know about the Duke's news. When they meet him in person, their morale will naturally be even higher."

The position of Ding Guogong was different from others in the hearts of the frontier soldiers. Chu Sui understood this reason, and naturally also knew Yuan Jirui's intentions.

The two discussed the details of how to prepare for this tough battle.When everything was almost arranged, Chu Sui left without seeing him.

Yuan Jirui still wanted to see Chu Yue, so he asked, "What else is there for General Chu?"

"The relationship between the son and the younger brother is very good?" As a person who is very concerned about everything, this is the first time Chu Sui asked about a personal matter.Although it was inappropriate, Shi Zi's attitude towards his younger brother made him feel very wrong.

"I... my brother Ling and I hit it off right away, and I have already treated him as my brother, so General Chu doesn't have to think too much."

"The son is the emperor's relatives and nobles. How can I dare not call you brother and brother?"

"It's okay, Yue'er is smart and handsome, and the crown prince admires him very much." So the crown prince has taken a fancy to Chu Yue's talent, so don't doubt it! !

Chu Sui still felt that there was something wrong there, but he had already said this, so he could only reply dryly: "Thank you for your appreciation."

And then...then go back to work on other things.There are too many things going on recently, and it's okay to ask my brother when everything is over.

The next day the Yi people still did not attack, so Yuan Jirui decided to take the initiative to attack and ordered the soldiers to get ready to attack the Yi people who were stationed thirty miles away.

Chu Yue was woken up by starvation in the middle of the night, but it was useless to wake up, and was ordered to rest.

On this day, Yuan Jirui put on his armor, instead of a hot weapon, he held a bow, some feathered arrows and a long knife.The moment she got on the horse, Chu Yue had to admit that this man was extremely charming.

Chu Sui naturally wanted to follow, the elder brother who always gave silently gave his younger brother a hug before leaving, almost made Chu Yue cry.

In fact, Yuan Jirui also wanted to hug her, but he couldn't think of a reason, so he had to give up.

The flag of the Chinese army was raised, and amidst the sound of horseshoes and footsteps, Chu Yue watched the army leave. The moment Yuan Jirui turned his head and waved his palms, Chu Yue felt like a husband who served the country and left his hometown, and his daughter-in-law sent him off for eighteen miles. Feel.

Shaking her head, Chu Yue shook off this absurd idea, thinking that she was still too free, saying that the wounded and sick in the army, the old and the weak, women and children still had to be arranged, so she immediately found something for herself to do.

The snow outside the tent was as deep as his calf, and Aqina and several barbarian generals drank and ate meat in the king's tent.

A man in very rough clothes said: "Why didn't the leader take the opportunity to take down the border city of Dahui, the snow is so heavy, and it will take many days if it is delayed, wouldn't it be an opportunity for them to take advantage of?"

Aqina said indifferently: "What is this? With the weapons given to us by the angels, Dahui can't resist anyway. Besides, we have strong wine! We have cattle and sheep! What do Dahui people have?! The people on the side They are almost robbed by us, they will only be more sad than us!"

"Let them starve and consume strength, and then our warriors will be able to take them down without any effort!"

Aqina blew the horn loudly, his expression was a little crazy.There was hatred in his eyes.He still remembered being beaten by Dahui's cannons and fled in embarrassment. Now he will come back with revenge a hundred times, a thousand times!

"The leader is wise!"

The remaining three people agreed one after another, threw down the wine bowl, and directly picked up the jar and poured it into their mouths.

"Report!"

Just as a few people were chatting and drinking, a voice came from outside.

"Come in."

"Report to the leader, the people of Dahui are beating drums five miles away."

Aqina dropped the wine jar in his hand, and said with a bang, "I won't go look for them, they came first to die. In this case, I will fulfill their wish and send them to see their ancestors!"

"Concentrate troops! Let's go to battle!"

Aqina is ambitious and vows to wipe out all the Dahui people guarding the border, but he doesn't know that Dahui's soldiers also come with the idea of ​​killing them.And be more prepared.

"Your Majesty, our people are already in ambush. If you don't look carefully, you won't be able to find it. The Duke has sent a letter, and everything is ready. When the time comes, we will attack back and forth, and the barbarians will never return."

"General Chu, I can rest assured. Let those with weapons go first, and pay attention to the distance. Although our weapons have a longer range, we must avoid unnecessary casualties."

"My subordinate understands."

Yuan Jirui nodded.They have been here for two days.On the first day, I came here to be careful and concealed. I caught a few patrolling barbarians, and when they didn't find out, I let some soldiers distribute on both sides.

After receiving a voice transmission from the Duke this morning, he beat the drums to declare war, revealing his whereabouts.

People have to pay the price for doing wrong things. Six out of ten people in the border towns were killed by the barbarians, and Dahui had lived with them for decades. Let's go back to the hinterland of the grassland to feed the sheep!

So when Aqina assembled his troops and the two armies confronted each other, he immediately recognized Chu Sui in front.

This reminded him of the war a few years ago.Aqina's eyes were red, and he shouted: "Dahui's bastard, if you can't beat him, go for a sneak attack. Your general has already died on the grassland!"

He was talking about Duke Ding who was going to sneak attack.Although Aqina was not injured that time, it caused great panic to the tribe, which was also the reason why Aqina did not continue to attack.

"Whether it's victory or defeat, it's still too early to make a conclusion." Chu Sui took the megaphone that Chu Yue made for him, not only did he not have to scream, but his voice was much louder than Aqina's, and he looked extraordinarily imposing.

Aqina felt ashamed all the time, and ordered bitterly: "Give it to me! Remember to avoid their artillery fire."

For Aqina, what Dahui's army feared most was the cannon that caused him a disastrous defeat. Others were nothing to worry about. He had a weapon in his hand, and before the Dahui people came to his side, he would be able to destroy them .

But this time, he still won't get his wish.

Aqina smiled ferociously, watching their warriors roaring and attacking the Dahui people.As if smelling the wonderful smell of blood, as if victory is at hand.

The Yiren walked halfway, expecting that the Dahui people were still in front, they dared not fire their guns, so they acted recklessly. Unexpectedly, there were soldiers lying in ambush from both sides, holding weapons similar to theirs.They didn't know where the people in ambush were, they could only see their own people falling down, and they had no choice but to rush forward.But Dahui people are really cunning!

They split directly to the two sides, revealing the five ferocious cannons in the middle, standing there with their teeth and claws open, and then watched the artillery fire attacking them.

This battle seems to be the same as the one between Yiren and Dahui more than a month ago, but the roles have completely changed.This time, those who fled became barbarians.

The distance was too far, and the things in their hands could not hit people at all. The soldiers of the Yi people immediately wanted to run, and the things in their hands became a burden at this time, but when they dropped their weapons and ran out, their rear also suffered a major blow.

With Aqina's character, he wanted to give the best weapons to the soldiers in front, and watch them kill all the Dahui people!But this time it failed.

A wave of soldiers emerged from behind him!The leader turned out to be Chu Tian who he thought had already been buried in the grassland!

"It's impossible!" Aqina yelled.

Chu Tian rode on the horse, smashed the blood off the silver spear, and said, "Nothing is impossible, do you think you can kill me, Chu Tian?"

Immediately, without giving him a chance to react, he took it directly.

The barbarians were desperate, so there were only a few people left in the rear, and the people led by Chu Tian were almost wiped out.

The warriors in the front were beaten back, and the rear was sent to their lair again.Aqin's face was ashes.

Last time he was unwilling to escape to the grassland, and with the help of the nobleman, he had a chance to make a comeback. What about this time?
