The late Ming Dynasty in the living room

Chapter 81: Death in battle is not as scary as thunder
Teacher Pan has no interest in being a god to the ancients.

With her ability to pretend to be a ghost, she would choose to assign two more compositions to the third-grade primary school students.

Of course, Teacher Pan didn't care whether Sun Chuanting lost the battle or died in Kaifeng or Tongguan.

What she cares about is that after Sun Chuanting died, no one from the Ming Dynasty would come to clean up the Central Plains and resist the establishment of slaves.

At that time, Fang Yu will have to train his own troops and go to the battlefield with his own swords.

Fang Yu absolutely did not want to see the land of China being occupied by slaves, and then the Han people were killed and turned into slaves.

Teacher Pan is naturally "selfish".

She felt that it would be good for Fang Yu and Axiu to stay safely in Laishui County and be the mastermind behind the scenes. (Also general supplier)

There will be dangers on the battlefield.

This is not the age of cold weapons. If you accidentally let a cannon hit you...

Therefore, the task of charging outside and fighting life and death with artillery and fire should still be left to ancients like Sun Chuanting and Niu Chenghu.

So Teacher Pan wanted to remind them: Don’t lose the battle.

This doesn’t mean it’s harming them, it’s a good time to make achievements, and it’s an epic achievement to save tomorrow’s fortunes!

As for the effect of this "reminder"...

Sun Chuanting led several general soldiers across the moat and entered Laishui County.

Niu Chenghu and Bai Guangen, who were behind them, were still a little pale. Their close-fitting clothes were cold, and they didn't know how much they had sweated just now.

Sun Chuanting was walking and suddenly turned back.

His face was as dark as water, and he stared at Niu Chenghu and Bai Guangen with sinister eyes.

"Do you remember what Madam Pan said?" Sun Chuanting asked.

Several people nodded quickly: Remember it, I will remember it in the end!

Sun Chuanting continued: "In the future, if anyone dares to disobey orders or flee in fear of the enemy, military law will not only punish you!"

Of course Sun Chuanting knew who Niu Chenghu and the others were, and he also knew that it was not just He Renlong who should be killed.

He singled them out to train and lead troops, but there was nothing he could do about it.

At this time, how many generals are available in the Ming Dynasty who can lead troops?Although these people have their faults, they can still fight.

Their only shortcoming... is that once the war goes against them, they run away too quickly!
Well, in the crazy era of the late Ming Dynasty, robbing people and killing good people for credit is no longer a shortcoming.

Of course they understood what Sun Chuanting said: in addition to military law, the person who could punish them was Pan Niangniang, who was even more powerful than military law!

They know that all the bad things they did in the past must have been recorded in that mortal book.

So why didn't they die today?
Pan Niangniang’s last words are the answer: “…if the soldiers use their lives and work with one heart and one mind, there will be hope for salvation.”

What else can be saved?On the surface, Empress Pan is talking about the Ming Dynasty.

But Niu Chenghu and the others are all high-level general soldiers with high IQs. How could they not hear the hidden meaning in Pan Niangniang's words?

Madam Pan is ordering them!This is to ask them to make meritorious deeds.

From now on, the eyes of God are watching in heaven.

If they dare to make another mistake, there will be another entry in the book, and then... they don't know what it is, it's probably the God's Thunder of Punishment.Where can there be the terror of thunder and lightning in a war and death?According to the Niubi Taoist saying: When thunder falls from the sky, both body and soul will disappear.

Even the chance of reincarnation is gone. Isn’t it scary?
There were no people in ancient times who were not afraid of this. Niu Chenghu and the others looked at each other and immediately knelt down to Sun Chuanting.

They looked very serious and said in unison:
"The last generals (Niu Chenghu, Bai Guangen, Zheng Jiadong...) swear to the Tianmeng that from now on they will strictly abide by the governor's military orders. If there is a war, the last generals will fight to the death and not retreat!"

In order to prevent fires, the musket shop was not built near the shanty area, but instead was built close to the moat.

Now, in front of this lonely workshop, a large group of "beggars" came.

They are official carpenters and blacksmiths released from neighboring counties. Together with their families, there are about 130-150 people, old and young.

Most of the shacks built for them in the North District were washed away by rice, so now they can only be temporarily housed here.

These people basically look like Lao Liu and the others back then: their clothes are in tatters, their faces are sallow and their muscles are thin.

Moreover, they were chased with all their might by the escort officers (to prevent them from escaping), and they covered a long distance in two days.

When Fang Yu arrived here, Old Man Zhao, Old Liu, and Liu Ji (logistics) were already here.

When the cafeteria heard that they were coming, they quickly cooked two large pots of white rice porridge even though it was not yet dinner time.

Such thick white rice porridge is of course a rare good thing for them, so much so that they all thought it was a "wind feast" specially prepared for them by the owner.

Before accepting a bowl of porridge, they all expressed their gratitude and expressed their determination to work well for their employer.

Now they are sitting on the ground, each holding a bowl, "snoring" and drinking deliciously.

"My boss is here, get up quickly!"

As the direct boss of the craftsmen, Lao Liu saw Fang Yu coming and shouted to them quickly.

Fang Yu saw them standing up. Many of them were shaky, with obvious sick looks on their faces.

Then he ordered Liu Ji: "Let these sick people live in shacks first, and then find some doctors to come and take a look at them."

Liu Ji quickly agreed and left with the two of them.

Old man Zhao came over and said worriedly: "Master, these people are dirty, have lice, and some are sick. Master, you should stay away from them."

Fang Yu glanced at him and thought, weren't you like this back then?
Although these people have dirty and torn clothes, they can at least get a little coarse grain from the yamen every month to survive, and they will not starve to death if they don't have enough to eat.

As for Old Man Zhao and the others, they had no other choice but to wait for death.

Fang Yu thought of the old man Zhao back then, and compared it with the one in front of him. He could only be described as completely different.

Now he was wearing clean clothes without a patch on them.

I heard that he often went to Master Liu Scissor to borrow an iron to iron his clothes, lest there be any wrinkles on his clothes. (Said by Liu Ji)

His face was rosy, better than most young people... Maybe he asked Lao Cui to make bone soup for him using leftover bones from the canteen?

It is necessary to verify it, this is a job crime!

Well, there is also his half-white hair and beard, which are neatly taken care of every day.

Old man Zhao looked in good spirits.

Just like those little old men in later generations who got up early in the morning and took the free bus to the countryside to steal watermelons.
