Chapter 647: Taking the Lead



"I've seen a lot of potential in those guys these days, so we've already solved most of the candidates. We just need to give them enough time and training. But as for your attainments in hidden weapons, to be honest, I've never seen anyone more suitable than you."

"My grandfather and uncle didn't think much of this before, but I think that hidden weapons are not about sneaking around, but about taking the enemy by surprise. So if you have the time and energy, I hope you can take up this responsibility. It would be best if you could pick a group of people in the army to participate. Gradually, we can train some people who have both ideas and hands-on skills, and then the expansion of the weapons camp will be just around the corner!"

When Gu Jiulang heard this, his blood started boiling.

The weapons battalion, this was the dream he had told Gu Shaoyu about before, but at that time no one in the Gu family was optimistic about him. They were busy training the army and fighting wars, so even he forgot this dream.

But now, Gu Shaoyu not only remembered it, but also helped him implement it step by step. Although there is still a long way to go before it can be successfully built, Gu Jiulang at least found the motivation to live.

Otherwise, day after day, even with the care and attention of so many people in the Gu family, he would wither away.

So he grabbed Gu Shaoyu's hand and Gu Jiulang nodded excitedly.

When he was anxious, he immediately used sign language, but Gu Shaoyu couldn't understand it. After he pointed at the paper, he reacted and hurriedly wrote on the paper.

"Thank you, brother. I will do my best to make sure all the soldiers of our Daxing Dynasty use more suitable weapons!"

The people of the Gu family never had the idea of ​​owning an army for themselves, so even if this weapons camp was set up, the weapons developed there had to be reported to the imperial court and distributed to the remaining military camps.

It can’t be that the Tiger Guards are the only ones who can enjoy it!

This is both Gu Jiulang's intention and Gu Shaoyu's idea.

"Okay, since you agree, I'll leave this to you. But I have only one request. Don't waste your energy on this. You should know that the most important thing for you right now is to take care of your health. If you can't take good care of your health, then I can only take this matter back."

When Gu Jiulang heard that he wanted to take it back, he quickly grabbed his sleeve and shook his head with wide eyes, as if he absolutely disagreed.

Gu Shaoyu smiled but still spoke in a serious tone.

"In short, you have to cooperate with the doctor's diagnosis and treatment, don't stay up late, don't think too much, take your time, don't rush. Once you get better, you can live here. It's no problem, understand?"

Gu Jiulang nodded repeatedly, and Gu Shaoyu was also very pleased.

"Let's go in and take a look. I found a few good people from the public to be your assistants. You can take a look around."

Gu Jiulang was looking forward to it and hurried into the hidden weapon room.

Although it was called a room, it was just a few tents connected together in the camp, filled with all kinds of equipment, all of which were prepared by Gu Shaoyu based on Gu Jiulang's previous drawings.

Although it was not done particularly well in a hurry, in Gu Jiulang's eyes, it was much better than any elixir that could grant a hundred years of life.

"General!"

"Master Jiu!"

When the craftsmen saw the two brothers, they greeted them and continued with their own work. This was exactly what Gu Jiulang wanted.

The only thing he was worried about now was whether the craftsmen could read and write.

After all, my voice is damaged, so I have to use sign language or writing to communicate with others. If they don't understand sign language and can't read, communication will be very difficult.

Before he could open his mouth, Gu Shaoyu said.

"They can read, and Master Qu also knows sign language, so there won't be any problem for you to communicate with them."

Hearing this, Gu Jiulang was very happy. Since there was no obstacle, he started to demonstrate immediately.

Gu Shaoyu couldn't understand it, but Master Qu saw it clearly.

Then he repeated what Gu Jiulang had just said.

"Master Jiu means that everyone who enters the hidden weapon room is a brother of ours. There is no need to be formal in the future. The most important thing is that you can tell him any ideas you have. We can discuss it together and try to make some good weapons. This will also be a gesture of consideration for the stability of the Daxing Dynasty."

Gu Shaoyu glanced at Gu Jiulang and saw him nodding with a smile, so he knew that the translation was good. At the same time, seeing Gu Jiulang's shining eyes, he felt relieved.

Gu Jiulang had only been in the hidden weapon room for an hour when someone came to call him from outside.

The one who stuck his head out was naturally Mu Lianying. When he saw Gu Shaoyu and Gu Jiulang, he grinned and said.

"General and Master Jiu, do you want to go and take a look? Brother Wen and Nian Ling are going to compete, and there are people in the army who are betting on who will win and who will lose between the two of them!"

"Is there someone acting as the banker?"

"Hehe, this is a game started by Vice General Ni and Vice General Wei, but..."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"But what?"

"It's in the name of Master Jiu."

They are so cunning!

There is no strict rule in the Huben Army that prohibits gambling, but there has never been any excessive situation, so Gu Shaoyu has always turned a blind eye. Now that the game is under his nose, of course he has to have a legitimate reason.

The safest way is to start in the name of Gu Jiulang. In this way, even if Gu Shaoyu is angry, he will be tolerant for his sake.

Seeing this, Gu Shaoyu gave Mu Lianying a cold look. Mu Lianying hurriedly walked up to Gu Jiulang and said in a flattering manner.

"Master Jiu, please come with me. Nian Ling is a very proud guy. He claims that he will defeat all the strong men in the army!"

After hearing this, Gu Jiulang felt helpless.

In the past, the two children, Nianjin and Nianling, always behaved steadily, steadily and well-behaved in the village, especially in front of him. He had basically never seen the two children throw tantrums.

But during the two months since coming to the General's Mansion, he and his brothers and sisters have shown their true nature, and the mischievousness and boldness they displayed were beyond Gu Jiulang's expectation.

However, thinking of their youth and vigor in the past, the two of them did not speak in such a arrogant tone. So, one reason they wanted to see their son's ability was to also rescue several deputy generals. Therefore, they made a gesture, signaling Mu Lianying to leave quickly.

Mu Lianying pushed Gu Jiulang's wheelchair and trotted away as if the wind was blowing.

Gu Shaoyu wanted to tell him to slow down, but the two of them quickly disappeared in the tent. He chuckled twice and let the matter go.

He turned around and gave Master Qu his instructions in a serious tone.
