Wonderful Puppet

Originally, some people suggested to make a whole set of leather jackets and leather trousers and sell them to the officers and soldiers above the team lieutenants. Anyway, the cotton jackets and other supplies will be shipped soon, but Luo Tianzhen still insists on only making fur vests. You can buy one with military pay.

He had already prepared for the worst. If the padded jackets arrived one day late, and one more soldier put on a fur vest, one less person might freeze to death.

"General Yao, why are you here?" Zhen Miao put the fur on her legs aside and stood up.

She has a sensitive sense of smell, soaked in a pile of fur all day long, the smell has already made her chest tight and short of breath, faintly nauseous.

Yao Yegui looked at her ugly face, and his heart moved slightly.Generally speaking, isn't it enough for those leaders to just put on a show?

It was precisely because of this that Yao Yegui looked at Zhen Miao with warmer eyes, and stretched out his hand to pull her out: "I told you, just call me Yegui. I really didn't expect you to work so hard."

"Anyway, if you are idle, you are idle. You are bleeding in the battle ahead, and we are just sweating a little." Zhen Miao said nonchalantly, the fresh and bitter air lifted her spirits.

"Yegui, are you here for business?" She still remembers that she wanted to pull Yao Yegui to help at the beginning, so as to set an example for the women in the city, but she didn't expect that Yao Yegui fled in fright, and said that she wanted her It would be better to kill her with an embroidery needle.

Yao Yegui seemed a little embarrassed, looked left and right, saw that no one was paying attention, and took out an object from his sleeve.

The object was round and bulging, tightly wrapped with a light blue muslin veil, and it was impossible to tell what it was.

"What is this?" Zhen Miao asked.

Yao Yegui showed a bright smile: "Open it and have a look."

Zhen Miao took it over, her hands were cold, she was even more curious in her heart, she opened it, and her eyes flashed with confusion: "This black and hard thing is—"

Surprise flashed across her face.The tone was a bit hesitant: "Could it be pears?"

Yao Yegui just laughed: "That's right, this is a frozen pear, have you never seen it before?"

"Indeed, I haven't seen it before." Zhen Miao swallowed unconsciously as she looked at the jet-black pear.

Jingbei was originally a cold place, with few fruits and vegetables, so summer and autumn were fine.At other times, it is a rarity. Since the war broke out, it has become even more difficult to buy with money.

She has not eaten fruit for a month.

"Where did it come from?"

"I got a few by chance, and I'll give you a taste."

Seeing that Zhen Miao was holding the frozen pear and was about to gnaw it, she hurriedly stopped her: "Don't, take your time, wait until it melts before eating. You can take it. I have something else to do, so I'm leaving first."

"Hey, thank you very much, Night Return."

"Thank you? There has been a truce these days, but you have worked harder than me."

Looking at the back of Yao Yegui leaving.Zhen Miao couldn't help smiling, and wrapped the precious frozen pear with another layer of veil and stuffed it into her sleeve.

"Master, General Luo is here. He is waiting for you outside."

After Zhen Miao returned to the room, she sat for a while.Someone else came in to report.

She put down her needlework and went out, seeing Luo Tianzhen leaning against the door, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Why are you here?"

This is a place specially set up for women to rush to make fur vests, and few men come here.

Do not misunderstand.There are so many young soldiers who are full of vigor and vitality. I am afraid that they will feel close to the female fly, let alone the woman. At the beginning, they were indeed a little bold and wandered outside. Later, they were kicked by Yao Yegui who came to look for Zhen Miao. I fainted a few times, and there was no more follow-up.

So Zhen Miao joked, "Aren't you afraid that Ye Gui will kick you?"

"Yegui? Since when did you call her name?" Luo Tianzheng's face darkened.

"Okay, what's the matter? You're always standing at the door. It's really not a good idea."

"I'm here to bring you something." Luo Tianzhen awkwardly took out an object from his arms.

A clump of green bamboo is embroidered on the lower right corner of the pure white handkerchief, which looks bulging when wrapped around it.

Zhen Miao felt a little familiar for some reason.

"This is—" She stretched out her hand and opened it, and she couldn't help being startled when she saw the black frozen pear.

Luo Tianxuan smiled and said, "Jiaojiao, what do you think it is?"

"Frozen pears."

"Huh?" Luo Tianzheng was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "How do you know this thing?"

When he first saw it, it took him a while to recognize it.

"Yegui sent me one just now." Zhen Miao took out the frozen pear and showed it to Luo Tianxuan with a smile.

Luo Tianzheng was in a bad mood. After a while, he gritted his teeth and asked, "What else did she say?"

"Oh, she said to eat it after it melts, otherwise I'm afraid my stomach won't be able to bear it."

Luo Tianzheng's face was completely dark, and he stood there silently.

"My lord, why don't you speak?"

Luo Tianxuan squeezed his fist.

The words were all said by the poacher, what else did he say?

This day is really unbearable!

More than ten days passed in a blink of an eye, and the fur vests that had been rushed out one after another had been divided, and there were still a small half of the leather that was not used. The cotton coats and other supplies finally arrived after the long-awaited.

The whole city was full of jubilation, and the fur vests that were sent out, those soldiers didn't want to buy them.

After all, there is a free padded jacket to wear, so why spend your own money to buy a vest.Of course, such an extra vest is very warm, but they have rough skin and thick flesh, and they survived wearing cotton jackets last year.

"Don't you need to do it again?"

"Well, those soldiers don't know how to spend money in such a place where they can spend money or not. It's just that you are working hard, so don't do it. Put these skins away first." Luo Tianxuan said.

"It's rare that these women are summoned. I think it's better to save them first, so that if this happens again next winter, they won't be messed up."

Luo Tianxuan felt a little distressed: "I see that you miss a bowl of food every day when you go home."

Zhen Miao said with a smile: "It's not that the smell of these leathers is so strong that it smoked me, but recently my nose has become numb to the smell, so I might as well finish it all at once, so as not to suffer again next year."

Luo Tianxuan nodded helplessly: "Then it's up to you, just don't work too hard."

At first, of course he objected to Zhen Miao doing it herself, but Zhen Miao said that since she came to Jingbei.The flames of war are raging, and she doesn't want to be a golden bird in a cage. It is good to contribute to the soldiers, even if it is meager.

After hearing this, he thought for a long time.After all, there is no more blocking.

In this way, the remaining batch of fur vests were still made, and another battle between the Great Zhou Army and the Jingbei Army had begun.

On that day, the Great Zhou Army and the Jingbei Army fought at Binglong Mountain, a hundred miles away from Blackwood City, and the first heavy snow fell in winter.Many died under the enemy's sword, and the Zhou army led by Luo Tianzheng returned in embarrassment.

Luo Tianzheng was covered with frost, cold and devoid of vitality, and stood for most of the night holding a bloody knife before being forcibly pulled back to the room by Zhen Miao.

Immediately afterwards.The Jingbei Army took advantage of the victory to attack, Yao Yegui led his troops to fight, and was seriously injured and returned, until the Dragon and Tiger General Jiang Dayong sent his lieutenants Li Yu and Xiao Hu to fight.It was barely able to stabilize the situation.

The number of wounded suddenly increased, and the atmosphere in the whole city became tense and gloomy like never before.

Zhen Miao no longer cared about her identity.After receiving Baishao Qingdai, together with many medical workers, they personally bandaged and changed the wounded soldiers.

There is a sand table in Luo Tianzheng's study, and he recruited military advisers and soldiers.I have stayed for most of the day.

"I have replayed the three confrontations. I don't think there is any reason why the third confrontation is better than the first two, but the fact is the opposite. The first time I led troops, the casualties were the heaviest, followed by General Yao, followed by General Li and others. It's a normal level." Luo Tianzheng said slowly.

"General, it snowed heavily on the day you went to battle. Perhaps our soldiers couldn't stand the sudden cold, which affected their combat effectiveness. The subordinates have already asked, and many surviving soldiers said that they were so cold at that time. It's all numb, and I can barely hold a knife, let alone fight."

"No, there must be something strange about it."

At this time, there was a knock on the door: "General Luo, Lord Jiaming, please see me."

Luo Tianzhen was startled.

All the officers and men looked at him, thinking, what's the matter with Jiaming county magistrate, a woman, coming here at this time?

Fortunately, Zhen Miao's behavior in the past few days won the respect of many soldiers, and she did not feel disgusted by it.

"Let the magistrate come in."

Soon, Zhen Miao brought Bai Shao and Qing Dai in.

"Jiaming, what's the matter?" Luo Tianxuan went up to meet him.

Everyone looked at each other in amazement, General Xindao Luo's face changed too quickly, it was cloudy just now, but now it has turned sunny.

Zhen Miao's complexion was pale, her hands were shaking, she took a deep breath, and then called out "Your Majesty" in a trembling voice.

"What's the matter, don't worry, talk slowly if you have something to say."

Zhen Miao didn't reply, she turned her head and glanced at Bai Shao.

Bai Shao walked forward with an ordinary package, and put the package on the table where the map was still placed without fear of everyone's scrutiny.

"Miss Baishao—" a soldier frowned and shouted in dissatisfaction.

But Bai Shao ignored it, reached out and opened the package, revealing a padded jacket.

"This is—" Everyone was even more confused.

Zhen Miao finally regained her composure, and said, "Your Majesty, I took Bai Shao and two people to bandage the wounds of the wounded soldiers. Seeing that some soldiers' cotton jackets were badly damaged, I asked Qing Dai to take someone back to get the remaining ones. Fur vests to keep them out of the cold, and gathered the jackets, and called the women to mend them. Who knows—"

When she said this, her face was condensed, and her tone was full of anger that could not be concealed: "Who knew that this was found in some jackets!"

Everyone leaned over and looked at the padded jacket.

"I don't see any difference." Someone muttered.

Some careful people have already changed their expressions, stretched out their hands to pick something from the damaged part of the jacket, and said in a trembling voice: "This is--reed flower?"

This jacket looks thick, but it is actually made of a mixture of cotton wool and reed flowers.The reed flowers are at the innermost, and the cotton wool is at the outermost. If the jacket is not torn apart like this, even if the cotton wool is exposed due to ordinary damage, it will be difficult to find it! (to be continued~^~)
