"Brother. I also know that Wu Nian did this, but there is really nothing I can do. The assassin is still in training, and there is no suitable time to assassinate him now."
Zhang Bu smiled bitterly, shook his head and said.
If there had been any other way, he wouldn't have been sitting in Jiang County for so many days.
"Is this the end of it?" Zhang Youwei's angry eyes almost bulged out of his sockets, and he gritted his teeth.
"No way. Let's wait for opportunities. But brother, our protection of the caravan is too thin, and it is too grand. We have to strengthen our defenses and keep a low profile to prevent this from happening again."
Zhang Bu thought for a moment, raised his head and said to Zhang Youwei.
In fact, it is also freezing three feet, not cold in one day.
Half of Zhang's territory in Liaodong was filled with powerful and powerful families who ranked high in the rankings. How many years has it been since anyone dared to make half-measures?
Half of Zhang's body was swollen in all aspects, and also became lax and dull.
Zhang Youwei listened to Zhang Bu's words, and he knew the truth. But he was still unwilling.
He took a deep breath, put his hands behind his back and paced back and forth in the hall. Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he turned back to Zhang Budi: "Brother Bu, I have a plan."
Zhang Bu's eyes lit up and he said urgently: "Brother, tell me quickly."
"We will then send out a caravan, pretending to be a caravan, but in fact they are capable soldiers. Then we will arrange people near the caravan, pretending to be pedestrians, to seduce and fish. Wu Nian will definitely get carried away if he succeeds once and learns about our business. If the team goes out again, he will definitely take the bait.”
Zhang Youwei became more and more enthusiastic as he talked, and his eyes were so bright that it was scary.
Zhang Bu smiled bitterly when he heard this and sighed: "Brother, you are looking down on Wu Nian. This is a man who started out as a soldier and twisted Beishan Fort into a rope in a few months."
"We have just been hit hard. Instead of licking our wounds, we are eager to send more caravans. This trap is too obvious."
"Brother. You listen to me on this matter. We will stand still and only train the assassins, and then wait for the opportunity."
Zhang Youwei was originally full of confidence and thought he had a brilliant plan. After listening to Zhang Bu's words, his heart suddenly became cold and he smiled bitterly and said, "Okay."
The two brothers looked at each other, feeling bitter.
This time it is really hard for a dumb person to eat Coptis chinensis.
After Wu Nian intercepted Ban Zhang's second batch of goods, he followed the established path non-stop and returned to Beishan Fort day and night.
Ban Zhang's power is no joke.
Now, except for Beishan Fort, everyone can be considered an enemy country. The longer you stay in the enemy's country, the greater the danger.
This morning, the sun was a bit dazzling. Wu Nian returned to Beishan Fort with twelve carts. I met some military households on the road, and they all took the initiative to get out of the way and bowed to Wu Nian.
Wu Nian ignored them. Now he was excited and tired. He was so tired that he wanted to fall down and sleep immediately. He was so excited that he was in great spirits.
Contradiction, contradiction.
After entering Beishan Fort, Wu Nian came to a larger courtyard. Two domestic soldiers were guarding the door. When they saw Wu Nian, they immediately bowed and saluted.
"Lord Xiaoqi."
Wu Nian nodded, quickly got off the carriage, and asked Xiao Bing, "Where is my brother?"
"Master Zhang is tired and is sleeping in the room." Xiao Bing replied.
"Get him up." Wu Nian said immediately. Sleep, how to sleep, it is a big deal, we can wait until the blind box is opened.
Wu Nian first went into the yard and took a look. There were ten large cars parked in the large yard, which was very crowded. None of the goods were opened, so Zhang Jin obviously left this opportunity to open the blind box to him.
"Sir." Zhang Jin, who was also on the road day and night. He didn't come back much earlier than Wu Nian. He walked out with big dark circles under his eyes, his eyes filled with bloodshot eyes.
"What are you doing, sir? Open it. Open yours first, then mine." Wu Nian said impatiently.
He rubbed his hands, really. This feeling is just like when entering the bridal chamber with Mrs. Chen, I can't wait.
That material body, that bulging body, really makes me want to die.
"Okay." Zhang Jin had a smile on his face. Immediately, everyone worked together to untie the rope tied to the cart.
There were ten large vehicles, most of which contained tents, food and other luggage to provide food and accommodation for the caravan members. But there are twenty-five boxes.
The box is clearly divided into two parts. There are twenty boxes. The box is rectangular, but relatively wide.
There are five boxes that are also rectangular, but very long, two or three feet long, and very narrow in width.
Wu Nian, Zhang Jin, and Long Qie were all experienced in the world. After seeing this scene, they immediately took a breath and their hearts began to beat unsatisfactorily.
"Grow weapons and armor." Wu Nian clenched his right hand into a fist, unable to hide the excitement on his face.
In these troubled times, what is most important?
people.
Next is food.
Once again it's weapons and armor.
Everything we do is based on people. Without food to eat, people cannot live. Without weapons and armor, people cannot protect themselves.
The process of making armor is not complicated. Nowadays, some of Wu Nian's domestic slaves can make armor, but the production is extremely slow.
Each piece of armor requires a huge number of iron sheets, good leather, and needle and thread. It's very laborious just to make these iron pieces manually, let alone other things.
Moreover, the imperial court has expressly stipulated that anyone who hides armor privately will be killed without mercy.
This thing can't be bought with money. Currently, his subordinates only have five pieces of armor.
And these twenty boxes are twenty pieces of armor.
Wu Nian had no doubts, this must be armor, it must be armor. He took a deep breath, put his right hand on the handle of the box, and opened it forcefully.
As expected, there was a full-body piece of iron armor placed inside.
Helmet, breastplate, skirt armor, etc.
Despite being mentally prepared, Wu Nian still had an indescribable smile on his face when he saw this armor.
It was indeed armor.
It is indeed armor.
Taking a deep breath, Wu Nian turned his eyes to the narrow box that was two to three feet long, and then opened it. It turned out to be a long weapon.
And it’s Ma Shu who Wu Nian likes.
Wu Nian picked up the horse and put it in his hand to watch. The handle of the spear is red, and the tip of the spear is dark and very sharp. Wu Nian took out a piece of black cloth and asked a soldier to unfold it with both hands.
Wu Nian held the horse spear and pulled it lightly with the blade of his spear. The black cloth was easily divided into two pieces.
This is definitely a good gun, probably not inferior to Zhang Jin's. It is a good gun passed down from the Jin family and is worth at least three hundred taels.
Wu Nian put down the horse pole, and then opened the long box one after another.
All of them are horseshoes.
It's just that the horse spear is also hand-forged, just like a sword. The long and short spear blades are decorated differently, some are long and some are short, some are good-looking, and some are more beautiful.
Anyway, it looks good.
When Wu Nian opened all the boxes and looked at the neat 20 pieces of iron armor and five-pole horses, he let out a long breath.
He is a man of determination, but at this moment he can't help but feel his blood boiling and his heartbeat speeding up.
Got rich.
And in troubled times, their value cannot be measured in money.
