Chapter 79
Seeing Shu Yan's certainty, Elder Zou was suspicious and said, "How does the old matriarch know such details?"
Shu Yan swallowed her saliva and said: "That kid Lin Xun insists on getting me to be his godmother. Naturally, I'm afraid of him. As the saying goes, I'm afraid of anything, and that Guoshanhong has a lot of cavalry in his hands. .”
Wang Longyun asked suspiciously: "Cavalry?"
Shu Yan nodded, and she continued: "And they have already mastered yellow powder and cooked steel, I am afraid they can already produce cannons, and the walls of Fenyang can't last for an hour."
Old Zou looked at Shu Yan with pity.
"Could it be that the old lady taught you this thing?"
Shu Yan waved her hand, she looked at Elder Zou.
"Brother Zou, Lin Xun put a knife on my neck at that time, and my sons were forced by him to become the husband of the female bandit. Can I just sit back and ignore it?"
Old Zou snorted coldly.
Shu Yan continued: "However, I feel that they shouldn't be rushing to Fenyang."
The old boy was not stupid, he blurted out: "They are going to attack Pingqiu."
The Pingqiu Copper Mine not only has copper, but also iron and coal. Most of the cannons, guns and weapons of the Han army are forged here. Luoyang, to the west is the hinterland of Xiliang. If the Han army loses this place, it will be a big trouble.
Pingqiu, as its name suggests, is very flat. There is only one Pingqiu in the west, but there is a big city here, and the city wall is poured with cement without sparing a lot of money. It is very strong and cannot be broken easily.
Thinking of this, Elder Zou felt a little relieved. He said, "Don't worry, General. Although Pingqiu's terrain is at a disadvantage, the city wall is strong. Even if they use heavy artillery, they can't break the city wall."
Shu Yan sneered.
"Heavy artillery bombardment can't break it, but the plague, the flood in Yingzhou, they came from the Huaihe River, many people in the army were sick, if the plague spread to Pingqiu..."
Old Zou sneered.
"Although I, Zou Shijie, am a scholar, I also know that the Xiliang army is not made of steel and iron, and will be infected with the plague."
Shu Yan laughed out loud, it turned out that this person's name is Zou Shijie, which is really interesting.
"But I gave them the formula of the Thousand Gold Medicine. It takes half a month to several months to make this Thousand Gold Medicine, and the output is very small. I guess they must have been preparing for a long time."
Zou Shijie clenched his fists and frowned.
After half a day, this Zou Shijie just opened his mouth and said: "The old lady really gave me everything."
Shu Yan smiled.
"Where is Brother Zou? Long Yun is my nephew anyway, so I naturally want to help him. I have already prepared the formula for Qianjin medicine, yellow gunpowder, and cooked steel."
Shu Yan took out the recipe from her pocket and put it on the table beside her.
Zou Shijie took it out and looked at it carefully, but couldn't see why.
Shu Yan said with a smile: "Brother Zou is a scholar, he gets a headache after reading too much of this kind of stuff."
Zou Shijie threw the things aside in disgust, and Wang Longyun said: "Old Zou, I have sent some people to investigate, and I will reply to the news tonight. If it is as my aunt said, we will immediately leave for Pingqiu .”
Zou Shijie nodded, and Shu Yan yawned.
"I've been bored in the mansion for the past few days, can you let my old man go out and breathe a sigh of relief."
Wang Longyun smiled and said: "Of course it is possible, Mr. Zou, you can send someone to escort your aunt."
Zou Shijie snorted coldly, agreeing.
Shu Yan went back to her room and saw that Cheng San was writing for the first time. Shu Yan leaned forward and found that this kid's handwriting was quite good.
The pen walks the dragon and the snake, quite a kind of domineering spirit.
Shu Yan couldn't help teasing: "Just looking at your handwriting, I think you're an overlord."
Cheng San smiled slightly, put down the pen, and Shu Yan's heart skipped a beat when he took a closer look.
This kid wrote that the world is for the contract.
Cheng San opened his mouth and said, "Son, I thought about it for a while. If the emperor makes a contract with the common people, the imperial power will protect the common people, and the common people will protect the imperial power forever. Is this a good strategy?"
This kid accidentally created a nondescript social contract theory.
But Shu Yan still couldn't help but said: "How many people can hear the emperor's voice, even if everyone can hear it, how many people can understand it? The territory of this dynasty is larger than that of the previous dynasty. Many, is it because the founding emperor of this dynasty is more powerful?"
Cheng San was about to brag, but Shu Yan said: "Of course not, that's because the dynasty has introduced good horses from the Western Regions, the canal connecting the north and the south has been dug, and the speed of transmitting information has become faster, so the territory of this country will become larger .”
Cheng San froze in place, Shu Yan patted Cheng San on the shoulder.
"Boy, everything is very complicated, and governing a country is especially complicated. The rise of a dynasty has a lot to do with the emperor, but not that much."
Cheng San was still thinking about it, but Shu Yan was impatient. She wanted to go out for a walk, to see if the vegetable seller's place was still there, and to see if the people in the city would survive if the Sun's family was skinned. How many.
Shu Yan pulled Cheng San and led a group of soldiers to leave the Sun's house. As soon as he left the house, he saw the bleak eyes.
It was even more desolate than before.
Shu Yan and the others walked towards the vegetable market at the gate of the city. Apart from the soldiers, there were not many living people on the way, but there were quite a few soldiers transporting corpses out of the carload by cart.
Cheng San couldn't help but befriend the soldiers in front of him.
"Isn't the blood-sucking insect in the Sun family gone? Why are there fewer people in this city?"
The soldier said, "Whether you really don't understand or not, we don't have military pay."
Shu Yan was taken aback for a moment, there was no military pay, and they raped and plundered on the spot. They happened to pass by the family that had borrowed water before.
Shu Yan and Cheng San pushed the door open curiously, only to see bloodstains all over the yard. In the first room was a woman lying naked on the ground with her eyes wide open. Outside was her husband's corpse. Look, he dragged Cheng San away from here.
They continued to walk forward, and they arrived at the vegetable market they had passed by before. This place has been occupied by the army, and a few shirtless soldiers are here, playing around a child.
It wasn't until Shu Yan got closer that he realized that this was the child from the two-legged flock who wanted to eat their horses.
The child's clothes were missing, and he was watched naked by the soldiers.
A child fights a dog.
A soldier said: "This dog grew up eating people, and this child also grew up eating people. Do you think dogs are better than people?"
The child let out a growl, and bit the dog's neck directly, even though the dog bit his hand, he never let go.
The child seemed to be full of hatred, more like a beast than a beast.
Shu Yan was also stunned.
