Chapter 678
When he returned to the magistrate's mansion, Su Ming handed over a letter.

"My lord, there is a letter from the capital."

Yan Qinghe's somewhat serious face broke into a smile instantly: "Madam must have written it."

Su Ming winked: "It's really Madam."

Yan Qinghe opened with a smile.

When she saw Yun Yiyi's handwriting, her brows softened all of a sudden.

"It's her handwriting."

He stood under the candle, carefully rubbing the handwriting.

Yun Yiyi wrote a lot, and also wrote some seasoning recipes.

It is exactly what he needs to open a branch now.

Yan Qinghe slowly closed his eyes.

He really missed her more and more.

……

Imperial court.

As early as after Yan Qinghe left, he received an urgent report from Fuzhou not long after.

Seemingly feeling this urgency, the court today was completely silent.

"Report to Your Majesty, more than [-] horseshoes have been made." Minister of the Ministry of War came out and said.

If the horseshoe hadn't been finished, he wouldn't have dared to make a sound.

"I order you to set off immediately and escort the horseshoe to Fuzhou." Fuzhou is far away from the capital, and I don't know what the situation is now.

The sooner you start, the more chances you have of winning.

The emperor is very worried about the battle situation in Fuzhou. This is a border defense of the country. If it is broken, then he, the emperor, will not be able to sit still.

So since the horseshoe was finished, the emperor wanted to send it to the battlefield immediately.

If he stays a day longer, he will feel flustered all day.

After the Minister of the Ministry of War took the order, he immediately went to Fuzhou.

At the same time, the morale of the soldiers in Fuzhou has been greatly improved since the victory in the last battle.

Their Great Zhou Kingdom already had few people, who would have thought that they could fight a battle in which fewer people win more.

The morale of the crowd can be said to be the time of victory.

But such a situation did not last long.

The Great Chu State has lost a large number of soldiers since the potatoes were poisoned.

They didn't have to be afraid. There were so many people in the Great Chu Kingdom, and one group was lost, and another group was quickly transferred.

There were several sneak attacks one after another on the way, all of which were resolved by General Bai.

It's just that this is a kind of consumption for the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Although the Great Zhou Kingdom has now shipped food, there is no shortage of food, but the number of people is small.

Can't afford such consumption.

in the military camp.

"General Bai, according to the general, it's better to fight with them, the Great Chu Kingdom." It was the deputy general who spoke, and he was very troubled by this kind of sneak attack from time to time.

"No, the morale of our army is low right now, so don't be so hasty." An old man with white beard said, he was the grandfather of General Bai.

Because of his injuries, he has been adjusting his breath in the barracks. If it hadn't been for the great commotion of Da Chu's attack on the barracks these days, he wouldn't have come out.

"This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run." General Bai spread out the map again, looking for a favorable terrain.

"If you can resist the cavalry battalion of the Great Chu Kingdom, your chances of winning will be much greater." Old General Bai also leaned over to look, and after a while, he clicked on one of the places on the map.

General Bai's eyes also brightened: "This terrain is good. If we can attract people to this place, then we can outflank the path and form a siege with the main team."

"But we can't even break through the cavalry battalion, the first line of defense in the Great Chu Kingdom. What if we let the opponent fall into this place?" The deputy general scratched his head, a little frustrated.

It's not that he destroys his prestige.

This is true.

The Iron Cavalry Battalion is an insurmountable obstacle.

If only this could be fixed.

They can approach people to this terrain, and then use the advantage of the terrain to encircle and suppress them in one fell swoop.

"Everyone, don't worry, it's not impossible." A sudden voice came from outside the military curtain.

General Bai immediately drew his sword.

The person who came was the Minister of the Ministry of War.

He smiled and moved General Bai's sword away: "General Bai, calm down, I am here to bring good news to the general."

General Bai recognized the Shangshu of the Ministry of War: "Why are you here? Could it be His Majesty who asked you to come and help me?"

The two of them had fought together before, and they haven't seen each other for a long time. How could he come?

Minister of the Ministry of War shrugged: "Do you think I can help you? It's not that His Majesty sent me here."

General Bai sneered: "Since you can't help me, what's the use of coming here?"

The Secretary of the Ministry of War didn't care about General Bai's attitude. They had known each other for more than ten years, so how could they not know each other's character.

He said this because he was afraid that he would come and die.

He had a cold face.

Tsk tsk, it's really the same.

"Although I can't help you with anything, there is something that can help you. I believe you will be interested." The Minister of the Ministry of War restrained his smile, and called someone to bring a box with some caution.

General Bai raised his eyebrows, wanting to see what he was up to.

The box was opened, and General Bai saw a pair of iron sheets inside.

He gestured to the Minister of the Ministry of War with his eyes: "What is this?"

"This is called a horseshoe..." Minister of the Ministry of War deliberately paused.

When General Bai heard the word "horse hoof", his expression suddenly became heavy, and his breathing became short of breath: "Continue talking."

"This horseshoe, nailed under the horse's hoof, can make the ride stable. Your Majesty has gone through many repeated tests and sent it to you after confirming that it is effective." Minister of the Ministry of War said quickly, "A total of 10,000+ pairs of horseshoes .”

"Which capable person made this?" Old General Bai asked.

If it had been produced earlier, they would not have had to waste so many people.

what a shame.

"General Bai also knows this person, but he is Lord Yan." Minister of the Ministry of War smiled.

"Could it be Master Yan Qinghe Yan?" General Bai hesitated.

"Otherwise? How can there be another Lord Yan in the court?" the Minister of War said.

General Bai took a deep breath.

This is too shocking.

He couldn't believe it, but his reason told him it was true.

"This is nailed to the horse's hoof, can the horse not hurt?"

"No, this kind of thing won't happen if you use the right method to nail it." The Minister of the Ministry of War affirmed.

He has experimented several times, how could it be fake.

What's more, the cavalry he brought were also nailed with horseshoes.

If something happened, it would have been a long time ago with such a long distance in the middle of the road.

"Grandpa, I'm going to try these horseshoes." After telling the old general Bai, General Bai took the horseshoes and walked in front of his horse.

The Minister of the Ministry of War nodded to the artisan who brought him, and the artisan put a horseshoe on General Bai's horse.

General Bai held his breath and watched the craftsman operate.

He didn't blink, for fear that his war horse would be destroyed.

The Minister of the Ministry of War almost laughed angrily when he saw his appearance.

Can't this person just trust him?

Is he that unreliable?

It's really embarrassing.

Craftsmen often nail horseshoes very skillfully, and they can be nailed in two or three strokes.

General Bai hurriedly leaned over to look at the horse's hooves.

There was no bloodshed!

And the horse is still standing well.

General Bai rode up in disbelief: "Drive!"

The horse ran fast without any instability.

On the contrary, General Bai felt much stronger than usual.

This……

General Bai remained dazed until he got off his horse.

The lieutenant also went up to try it.

He came down cheerfully with his eyes wide open.

General Bai finally came to his senses. He laughed and gave the Minister of War a bear hug: "You are really timely. With the horseshoe, we have a little more chance of winning this time!"

Immediately, Old General Bai ordered that all the horses of the army be put on horseshoes.

In order not to scare the snake, General Bai did not tell the soldiers the purpose of the horseshoe, so as not to accidentally leak the news.

That night, General Bai chose an hour to prepare for the night attack.

This time is the time when the Great Chu State is changing shifts, and it is the time when the other party is most sleepy.

The Great Chu State sent them several times of enemy attacks, so they also gave one as a gift.

With a wave of General Bai's hand, some soldiers in black sneaked across the river under the cover of night.

The sentinels of the Great Chu Kingdom were dozing off.

These days they are always attacking the Great Zhou Kingdom, so it is expected that they will not dare to come.

The soldiers of the Great Zhou Kingdom saw the timing was right, and went up and wiped the opponent's neck.

The movements were neat and crisp, and the other party was dealt with before he could make a sound because he covered his mouth.

After the opponent was settled, the soldiers of the Great Zhou Kingdom quietly changed into the clothes of the soldiers of the Great Chu Kingdom.

Drag those bodies straight out into the jungle.

When the soldiers of the Great Chu State occupied the sentry position, one of the soldiers pretending to be the Great Chu State held a torch and prepared to set off a smoke.

At this time, a soldier from Dachu suddenly came to block his front.

"Hey, what are you doing!"

"No, it was discovered."

Seeing that the situation was not good, the soldiers of the Great Zhou Kingdom ran away in a hurry, setting off signal flares as they ran.

"Soldiers, follow me, kill!" General Bai raised his sword and said loudly, "Kill all the thieves of Chu, and give back my soldiers of Zhou! Come on, brothers, avenge our soldiers who gave their lives in vain! !!"

All of a sudden the bonfire was lit, and the soldiers galloped away on horseshoeed horses.

I don’t know if it’s the military spirit that has been sluggish these days. The big guy has been holding his breath. The Great Chu State attacked them continuously, but the general kept shrinking. This anger made the soldiers of the Great Chu State hold back hard. When it explodes, it just keeps on talking.

So, they were surprised to find that they were able to kill Dachu's cavalry battalion.

"Brothers, this cavalry battalion is useless!"

"Don't be cowardly, kill me!"

"The cavalry battalion is just a bunch of paper tigers! Don't be afraid, brothers!"

"Iron Cavalry Camp, pay back my brother's life!"

As morale became higher and higher, the iron cavalry battalion gradually lost.

"General, they don't know what sorcery they used to suppress our iron cavalry battalion." The deputy general of the Great Chu Kingdom frowned.

The subordinate soldiers kept coming to report, saying that they could not suppress the opponent's horse.

How is this possible!
Can he still not know the cavalry battalion under him?

However, he didn't take it seriously when one came to report, but he had to be cautious when dozens came to report.

"Don't worry about it, it's just the end of the battle." General Chu said coldly.

There are only so few people left in the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Still want to turn against the wind?

Do his spring and autumn dream!

Today, he is going to save the life of General Bai and sacrifice the life of his son Lang of the Great Chu Kingdom.

How dare you give him the poisonous potatoes from the Great Chu Kingdom.

Really desperate!
