Chapter 204 I Have It Myself
When she needs it, she will naturally understand what I mean by not doing my job properly.
Seeing that Xiao Hei didn't want to say more, Yu Mengqing ignored him.
The most important thing right now is the explosives, and she has to make them as soon as possible.
"Xiao Hei, how many can you make before dawn?" Yu Mengqing asked naturally, as if nothing had happened.
This hit the nail on the head for Xiao Hei, so he immediately retorted:
"Just now I told you that you weren't doing your job properly, and you're still playing dumb. How long has it been since you upgraded this machine? I'm afraid it's been so long that you've forgotten that there are upgrades to the space, right?"
Yu Mengqing: “…” Can she say that she really forgot?
But after seeing the smoke coming out of the little black head, Yu Mengqing would never dare to say this even if she was beaten to death.
What's more, now is the time when I need it. What if it goes on strike? What will happen to my explosives?
Of course she can do it herself, but she has to have the time.
Chu Shiheng was staring at him every day, so it was very difficult for him to even enter the space.
What's more, it is a complicated matter to come into the space to make explosives?
Besides, if she had more time, she would like to spend more time with her three children.
Of course there is also Chu Shiheng.
The two hadn't seen each other for such a long time. How could they finish reminiscing in just a few words?
Of course, the most important thing is war
You know, they are planning to fight the day after tomorrow.
If it weren't for the sudden discovery of saltpeter, they would have decided to go into battle tomorrow.
"You don't want the gun anymore?"
Seeing Yu Mengqing's smile was uglier than crying, Xiao Hei couldn't help but continue to mock her.
"Look at what you said, how could you not want it? You've been busy lately." Yu Mengqing said in a low voice.
After saying this, he felt so guilty that he was embarrassed to even raise his head.
This time, Xiao Hei obviously didn't intend to give her face, and he said again:
"Why are you so busy? There were so many wounded on the battlefield the past two days. Did you bandage anyone? If you could do something useful, it wouldn't have been a year or two without any changes in the space."
It’s not that Xiao Hei wants to say this, but the machine has not been upgraded, so the explosives have to be made more slowly.
It has to stay here and can't play even if it wants to. It would be strange if it wasn't angry, right?
Even though I have tried so hard, she still asks such questions.
How can it not be angry?
"Okay, okay, don't be angry. I will work hard this time to upgrade the space and make sure you don't have to work so hard in the future." Yu Mengqing quickly promised.
In fact, it’s not just Xiao Hei who wants to upgrade this space, but Yu Mengqing herself does too.
She has always wanted a gun.
If this upgrade can really give her a gun, it's not impossible to work a little harder.
After Xiao Hei's reminder, Yu Mengqing actually regretted not treating the wounded with the military doctor in the past two days.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be any changes in the space until now.
Especially when she saw Xiao Hei guarding the machine, waiting for it to produce the explosives, Yu Mengqing felt even more guilty deep in her heart.
But Xiao Hei didn't know all this. At this moment, all his attention was on the machine.
Although it said some words to its master, in its actions, it subconsciously followed Yu Mengqing's arrangements.
There's nothing we can do. Who says he's the master?
With the saltpeter that Yu Mengqing just brought in, it is enough to maintain the bombs needed for this war.
If nothing unexpected happens, it will be ready tomorrow and ready for use the day after tomorrow.
At this moment, Yu Mengqing can be said to have been waiting for a long time.
When she first arrived in Xinan County, Yu Mengqing swore to herself that she would rescue these people in the future.
Save these people from the water and fire.
After explaining all these things, Yu Mengqing left the space.
The next day at 11:00 AM.
All the people who went to dig saltpeter have returned.
Seeing the carriages pulling back cartloads of saltpeter, Yu Mengqing's mouth almost cracked.
"Are you so happy?" Chu Shiheng asked.
"With these saltpeter, our chances of winning will be greatly increased. How can I not be happy?" Yu Mengqing asked back.
"King of War, our food and supplies..." The voice of the Fire Army came from behind.
Hearing this, Yu Mengqing's heart suddenly shuddered.
She seems to be forgetting things a lot lately. I wonder if it’s because pregnancy makes you stupid for three years.
I forgot about the saltpeter before, and now I have even forgotten about the food and fodder.
If the kitchen staff hadn't brought it up at this time, Yu Mengqing really wouldn't have remembered that they might not have enough food.
The food and supplies from the capital have not arrived yet, and because I have space, I have never had to worry about this.
If he wanted to take out the food and grass now, he would certainly be suspected by Chu Shiheng again.
But if the food and fodder are not provided, the soldiers will definitely not have enough to eat.
How can we fight a war if we are hungry?
Thinking of this, Yu Mengqing started to have a headache again.
"How many days can the food and grass last?" Chu Shiheng asked.
"In less than three days, if the imperial court doesn't send food and fodder, we will..."
Huo Tou Jun didn't say the rest of the words, but the meaning was very clear.
If the imperial court does not send food and fodder, the soldiers will have no food to eat in three days.
When going on an expedition, the biggest worry is not having enough food and fodder.
Because once there is not enough food, there is no point in continuing the war.
How can soldiers fight if they can’t even fill their stomachs?
The battle on the battlefield is a protracted one. How can you fight with an empty stomach?
The most worrying thing for the Great Xia Kingdom has always been the food problem.
Today, the treasury of the Great Xia Kingdom is empty, and after years of war, there is no extra food and grass to use for the battle.
"Just cook as usual first, I'll figure out the food issue." Yu Mengqing said softly.
Hearing this, Chu Shiheng subconsciously looked at Yu Mengqing.
His eyes were full of doubts.
She came to think of a solution, what solution did she think of?
Does she know what food and fodder mean?
Does she know how much food and fodder this 100,000-strong army needs in a day?
Hearing her light tone just now, Chu Shiheng really suspected that she might not know what she had agreed to?
"What? Do you think I'm just talking nonsense?" Yu Mengqing asked back when she met Chu Shiheng's gaze.
For some reason, when Chu Shiheng heard Yu Mengqing say this, he subconsciously believed her.
As for why, he didn't know.
But he knew Yu Mengqing, and she would not easily agree to something if she was not sure.
"Where do you plan to get food and supplies?" Chu Shiheng couldn't help but ask after holding back.
"No need, I have it myself." Yu Mengqing replied.
