Chapter 227: Is Godfather an Expert?
Inside the tent near the city gate, Lin Xiaoyue and Chen Yunyun were busy, but it still wasn't fast enough! They were desperately trying to cheer themselves up and speed up.
In one afternoon, the two of them made sixty or seventy homemade bombs.
When Liang Jingyao came in, he saw the earth bombs all over the floor and couldn't help but sigh: "You two sisters are really fast. You made so many in such a short time! Come and take a break!"
Lin Xiaoyue waved her hand and said, "No, let's rest when we get back. We should finish all these materials quickly! Oh, I think I saw Zhan Ying just now. What is he doing here?"
Liang Jingyao didn't want the conflict between Lin Xiaoyue and the Queen Mother to escalate, so he smiled and said, "Nothing, just came to ask me something. You and Yunyun will stay in the tent today, right? You can help me make more homemade bombs. I'll have dinner delivered to the Queen Mother and the others."
Lin Xiaoyue picked up the materials and said, "That's fine. The two of us can make it all in one night. However, if you need it later, you'll have to ask someone to buy the materials!"
Seeing that it was still early outside, Liang Jingyao said, "Don't worry, I'll have someone buy some right now. The more the better! Thank you for your hard work!"
Lin Xiaoyue said meaningfully, "You should thank me. For helping you, what did the Queen Mother misunderstand about me?"
Liang Jingyao looked embarrassed and said sheepishly, "Yue'er, don't be angry! I've already made an agreement with the county magistrate. From now on, his wife will bring her personal maid to the bamboo courtyard to take care of the empress dowager personally. You don't have to go back to the valley in the future, or you'll see the empress dowager in a bad mood every day!"
Lin Xiaoyue thought about it and realized that apart from not being able to see her father every day, everything else was fine! The Queen Mother still relied on her father for medical treatment, so she would definitely not make things difficult for him. So she could rest assured living in the city!
"That's all! I don't want to continue doing thankless work, but I have to go back to the valley tomorrow to tell my father and the eldest princess."
Liang Jingyao nodded and said, "Okay! Do as you wish!"
At the camp twenty miles away from the gate of Yangming Town, Liang Baihao had just finished counting his troops. The number of cavalrymen was several times that of Liang Jingyao, but they had lost twice in a row, and each time was more embarrassing than the last. He deeply felt the terrifying strength of Liang Jingyao!
Therefore, before the war begins, mobilization work is urgent!
He stood at the front and spoke loudly, "Everyone has followed me, Liang Baihao, through countless battles, both large and small, with more victories than defeats! If you still believe in me, then please give it your all. When you return victorious, I will definitely help you seek rewards from the Emperor!"
The Iron Cavalry had served Liang Baihao for many years, but had only recently been assigned to the Left Prime Minister by Emperor Liang. The Left Prime Minister, a shrewd civil official who could do nothing but lose his temper, couldn't even make a few theoretical arguments. In the end, not only did the Left Prime Minister get beheaded, but he also caused numerous casualties among the Iron Cavalry!
To be honest, when the Left Prime Minister's head fell to the ground, the Iron Cavalry felt a sense of relief, so when they went back to report to Emperor Liang, everyone exaggerated the matter and put all the blame on the dead Left Prime Minister!
Now, seeing their former master return, the Iron Cavalry were so moved that they could only wipe away their tears, waving their fists and shouting, "General Liang, we support you!"
"General, we all listen to you!"
“Mighty! Mighty!”
…
Pakho Leung was deeply moved. They were indeed his soldiers!
"Okay! Then let's swear an oath of blood here today and we will never return to Beijing unless we kill Liang Jingyao!" Liang Baihao shouted excitedly.
The enthusiasm of the Iron Cavalry was ignited, and each of them cut a cut on their arm and dripped their blood into the same bowl.
At night, when everyone was still sleepy, the cavalry led by Liang Baihao attacked the city gate again.
This time, they split into two groups, one group climbed the city wall, and the other group used thick wood to knock down the city gate.
"Bang, bang, bang!" The city gate was banged hard and was almost broken open several times. Fortunately, Chen Hu personally led his men to hold the city gate tightly.
Liang Jingyao saw that the situation was not going well, so he immediately shouted, "Archers, get ready! Shoot!"
Archers shot at the people who were climbing the city wall. The arrows made a "whoosh" sound as they scraped through the air. As one cavalryman fell, another would come up to replace him, as if they were determined to die and had to climb up the city wall!
Inside the tent, Lin Xiaoyue heard fierce noises outside, and she knew that Liang Baihao's army was attacking!
"Yunyun, are you afraid?" Lin Xiaoyue knew that Chen Yunyun had never experienced such a thing, and asked with concern.
Although Chen Yunyun was panicking, she pretended to be calm in order not to worry Lin Xiaoyue. She shook her head and said, "I'm fine. Do you want to go out and take a look again? Don't run around. Swords and knives have no eyes. It's too unsafe!"
Lin Xiaoyue fiddled with her hair awkwardly and said, "No, why would I? I'm just worried that you're scared. If you're really scared, I'll take you to hide."
Chen Yunyun looked at the pitch-black night. Now that she couldn't leave the city, where else could she hide? Perhaps Lin Xiaoyue wanted to leave her alone again!
Thinking of all the dangerous things Lin Xiaoyue had done before, she refused without a second thought: "I'm not afraid, let's stay here! Don't go out! Brother Liang and Uncle don't want you to take risks!"
Lin Xiaoyue lowered her hands in frustration. Chen Yunyun had seen through her. It seemed that she had done many things to make her worry!
"Well, we'll stay in this tent."
Chen Yunyun nodded with satisfaction and said, "Alright, hurry up and make it! What if Brother Liang and the others don't have enough? Instead of running around outside, you might as well make a few more homemade bombs here! I only gave them the homemade bombs for your safety! These are all my father's secrets!"
Lin Xiaoyue vaguely remembered that when Liang Jingyao fell off the cliff, a member of the Jinyiwei threatened her and wanted her to tell him how to make a homemade bomb.
"Yunyun, is godfather a martial arts master? Or a hermit? Otherwise, how could a farmer have such a thing?" Lin Xiaoyue looked at Chen Yunyun curiously, as if the answer was hanging on Chen Yunyun's face.
Chen Yunyun hesitated to speak, took a deep breath, and said, "Now is not the time to tell you, you just need to know not to run around!"
Lin Xiaoyue was most annoyed by those who left their words unfinished. She shifted her hips, nudged Chen Yunyun with her shoulder, and whispered, "Just whisper it in my ear. I won't tell anyone else! Just tell me now!"
Chen Yunyun hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and refused, "No, it's not time to tell you yet! Anyway, I won't harm you! Don't worry!"
