Chapter 598
"Since this is the case, why do you want to negotiate peace with them now? We have already gained the upper hand so many times before, and the momentum is just right. Wouldn't it be better to seize the opportunity to wipe them all out?" Su Ran asked in a low voice.

"I think so too, but this kind of thing can't be done in one go." Li Er shook his head, "In the few confrontations a few years ago, although the damage was not small, our army was also damaged. And as long as there is a war, it must be consumed. Food and grass. At that time, it was a world of ice and snow, and there was not much food in our barracks. How could we afford long-term combat? Those few attacks were defeated, and in fact, almost half of the remaining food in the food depot had been consumed. For the rest of these days, the soldiers tightened their belts. Every day they didn’t have enough to eat, and patrolling around with knives exhausted their strength, so how could they have the strength to go to war again?”

After a pause, he added another sentence. "Besides, even if Dashi is defeated now, wouldn't there be enough food for the soldiers to feed them?"

of course not.Didn't Dashi come to loot like crazy because he was so hungry?

Su Ran sighed. "I see you again as a woman."

Having never experienced a war, she knows very little about the doorway here, and everything is based on her own wishful thinking.Now that Li Er explained clearly, she realized how naive her thoughts were.

And... "Now that there are Fanmai at the border, the lives of the soldiers are still so difficult. One can imagine how difficult their life was before the appearance of Fanmai."

"Before that, soldiers were starved to death every winter." Li Er said in a deep voice.

Su Ran's heart twitched again.

Sure enough, the border war was much crueler than she had imagined.

"Talking about ten thousand is actually due to the lack of supplies. Especially food." She whispered.

"Yes." Li Er nodded in agreement.

However, things like food can't be figured out casually.It took the first Princess Zhenxi how many years of hard work to successfully plant Fanmai, and then encountered infighting between the court and China when it was vigorously promoted.Just because some people, in order to protect their own interests, pushed away such a great idea that benefited the country and the people, and almost ruined it!
And even if there is Fanmai, this can only ensure that the soldiers at the border will have something to eat when they are in the ice and snow, so that they will not starve to death.As for having enough food and clothing, that is still an unattainable dream.

And now their purpose here is to feed and clothe the soldiers, and then everyone will fight against the enemy to wipe out the food!
This sentence suddenly popped up in Su Ran's heart.But then she laughed at herself—how could such a difficult task be accomplished by a little girl like her?This is not Wushan Village. She gritted her teeth and saved every penny to buy land, so that her family could live a good life.

Hey!
Only then did she realize that she had climbed one mountain after another with great difficulty.But when she stood on the top of the mountain, she realized that there was a higher and bigger mountain waiting for her to climb.This feeling of never being able to climb to the top is really frustrating sometimes!
However, after a short period of frustration, she summoned up her courage again.

She grasped Li Er's hand. "No matter what, since we have come here, we will definitely do our best to make this place better and better. Now that we have survived the hard life of being poor and white in Wushan Village, and we have also broken through the dragon's pond and tiger's lair in the capital, I will If you don't believe us, we won't make it here!

"En." The man nodded again.

The couple looked at each other and couldn't help but smile at each other.

Li Er used the fact that Sister Yue and the others were taken away by the eldest prince to attack Dashi, and it really made Dashi Wang's court jump for a while.The Emperor Dashi was about to cry - he just sent them so many cattle, sheep and horses, and now he, the emperor, can only eat a bowl of dry rice in a few days!It turned out that only a few days had passed, and they came looking for trouble again!

But after asking someone to investigate, he found out that Li Er was not looking for trouble, after all, the eldest prince did it!Although the eldest prince is dead, the little girl is holding the evidence from their palace!

Moreover, it would be fine if the eldest prince only arrested his sister for a month, but in the end he captured King Zhenxi's precious daughter, as well as the stepdaughter of King Zhenxi's confidant!And if he arrested the man, it would be better if he brought him back to the royal court, so that they could control the two girls to blackmail King Zhenxi fiercely, but he didn't, and instead let him run away!

Fortunately, the eldest prince kicked his legs and died happily, but left such a huge mess waiting for them to clean up!
The Emperor Dashi was so angry that he even turned his face towards the queen who had been in trouble with him for many years.

Just getting angry again, he had no choice but to take the initiative to send Li Erxiu a letter admitting his mistake, and then took the initiative to send fifty horses and one hundred cattle and sheep to the little county master and the others.

Li Er accepted it unceremoniously, and asked someone to send a message to Emperor Dashi: "Be careful with your son in the future, and don't let them stare at our Sun and Moon Dynasty. It will be even worse than it is now."

The Great Food Messenger could only nod his head like a grandson, without daring to say a word of rebuttal.

On the surface, this matter is nothing.

However, looking back, Li Er whispered to Su Ran: "The matter has been found out, and the second prince Dashi did it."

"It really is him!" Su Ran couldn't help gnashing her teeth.

After all the calculations, he was the only person who had seen Sister Yue.It was only through him that the eldest prince would know that there was a beautiful and beautiful sister Yue on their side.But, "Why would he do that?"

"Isn't it the same as over there?" Li Er raised his finger and pointed in the direction of the capital.

Su Ran lost his temper in an instant.

Hey, no matter what dynasty or generation, no matter where, as long as there is the throne, people's hearts will expand infinitely.In order to seize that position, they would fight each other, fight against each other, and even mutilate the people of the world, they would do anything.

"As I said earlier, this second prince is brave and resourceful. He met Sister Yue, and after he went back, he pretended to be fascinated by Sister Yue every day, and even painted a portrait of Sister Yue by himself and placed it in the room. Watch it. After the eldest prince heard the news, he asked someone to steal the portrait, but when he saw the person in the portrait, he was fascinated and wanted to snatch him back. Then, the following happened. "

Li Er said in a deep voice: "However, the second prince probably never thought that Sister Yue and the others would be able to escape. He must have made two preparations. On the one hand, the eldest prince did not snatch him away, but offended me. It is certain that the prince will fall out of favor; on the other hand, if the eldest prince snatches him back, then the one who is snatched away with Sister Yue must be Sister Xiao or Sister Zhu, and they can use Sister Xiao and Sister Zhu to come Put conditions on us. In this way, he will have another chance to stand up and show his ability, and the brave and reckless prince can still be used as a stepping stone by him and trampled under his feet."

"It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven. Sister Yue and the others escaped, and the eldest prince died. His goal was not achieved. He is still the second prince who bears the title of being defeated and captured." Su Ran answered.

Li Er nodded. "That's right. Now, instead, his third brother, who has always been mediocre, has started to show up. This is definitely another big blow to him."

"But I think it's too cheap for him!" Su Ran gritted her teeth.

The second prince was defeated and captured because he was not good at learning.As a result, after being redeemed, he didn't want to improve himself so that he could win back for himself when he went to the battlefield next time, but he thought about using such indecent methods to suppress his compatriots and take revenge on them by the way.It is conceivable that this person has a bad mind and will definitely do more and more despicable things in the future.

"It is indeed too cheap for him. However, there is still a long time to come, let's take our time, and I will definitely make him pay for what he has done." Li Er said in a deep voice.

Su Ran pouted, but she was still unhappy.

However, after these two consecutive blows, the second prince learned to behave.And Dashi was hit hard, and they became more honest, and they didn't make any troubles for a long time.Of course, this also has something to do with the arrival of spring, the revival of vegetation, and the fact that their cattle and sheep are full, so they have enough to eat.

They didn't come to find trouble, and the two sides continued to trade with each other. Su Ran also helped Sister Hua take care of the children, while watching a bunch of things outside such as planting vegetables, trees, raising rabbits, etc. She was also very busy.

In a blink of an eye, two months passed, and the rabbits transported from Liangjiang Province finally took root in the northwest and began to reproduce on a large scale. The soldiers in the military camp could eat one meal of meat a month.

At this time, brother An's daughter-in-law in the capital was about to give birth.

Su Ran decided to clean up and go back to the capital!
