"Our Wang family has two families. Wan'er has had a heroic spirit since she was a child. How can she be afraid of a harsh environment?"

Wang Jian almost laughed out loud for such a far-fetched reason.

"Okay, okay, dad, let me tell you the truth. In addition to worrying about Wan'er's safety, my son still thinks it's inconvenient for Wan'er, a girl, to go out with the army!"

Wang Ben's old face was tangled up, he spread his hands and said in a very embarrassed tone.

The young master is powerful and protected by many good generals, so she is not really worried about her daughter's safety!

But it is really inconvenient for a girl to hang out with a group of big men all day long.

Not to mention anything else, just washing and sleeping are big problems!

"Hahaha! So this is what you were worried about!"

Seeing his son's expression, Wang Jian burst into laughter.

"Dad, you are still smiling, but you are helping me to persuade Wan'er!"

"You, you, you are good at everything, but you are too upright and don't know how to turn your head!"

"What?"

Wang Ben was confused.

It’s just a matter of whether to go or not, is there any need to turn?

Besides, isn't he turning fast enough?

As soon as he said he would follow him to the battlefield, he had already thought of the inconvenience on the march, and he was already turning around fast enough!

"There are all men in the army, but Wan'er is a girl. Who do you think she should live with?"

Wang Jian stroked his beard with a scheming look on his face.

"When she arrived in the army, her identity was that of a reporter. It was impossible for her to occupy a tent by herself. As for who...?"

Wang Ben tapped his index finger rhythmically on the stone table, and began to think seriously. Suddenly an idea flashed, and he seemed to understand something, "Do you eat, drink, and live together with the young master?"

Wang Jian smiled lightly and nodded slowly, "That's right!"

"When we arrive in the army, Wan'er is not only a reporter, but also the young master's future princess. She will have to live and eat with him. What are you worried about?"

"My young master is still young. Even if Wan'er has been decided to be the imperial concubine, if he wants to change it in a few years, His Majesty will not disagree. So the most important thing is to keep the relationship between the two of them stable now!"

"You have seen the artillery with your own eyes. With the artillery in hand, you don't need to worry about the safety of the young master and Wan'er!"

Wang Jian sat firmly on the stone bench, analyzing the pros and cons for his wooden-headed son.

After he said this, Wang Ben's eyes became brighter and brighter, and his frown relaxed.

"Dad, you are right!"

When Wan'er arrived in the army, she would definitely live with the young master.

As we get along day and night, feelings gradually develop, which is really a good thing for Wan'er!

"Dad, the environment over there with the Huns is really not very good, there are so many mosquitoes!"

"You don't have to worry about this. The young master can even prepare a potion to remove miasma. Can a tiny mosquito still stump the young master?"

Wang Jian had great confidence in Xiao Zhengtai.

"Haha! That's right, you are still cunning, dad...!"

"What?"

"No...no, dad, I mean, you are cunning!"

"You unfilial son!"

"No...no...Dad...slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, don't take the broom first, what I want to say is that you are a treacherous person and a slippery horse!"

"Pah...pah..."

"Ouch! Dad, you are resourceful and far-sighted, Dad, hiss... please be gentle, Dad, I really made a slip of the tongue just now!"

"Then I will correct your slip of the tongue today. It will be fine in front of you and me. If you still slip of the tongue in front of the emperor, your head will be gone!"

Wang Jian picked up the broom and hit Wang Ben, making him grin and run around the stone table.



"My master is about to take command and go on an expedition. Do you still want to make military exploits?"

In the other courtyard, Xiao Zhengtai ordered Han Xin to gather all the members of the Flying Eagle team together, while he stood on the general stage and asked loudly.

"Young Master is going to take charge? Did I hear you correctly?"

"The young master is only six years old, and he is about to take command and go on an expedition?"

As soon as Xiao Zhengtai finished speaking, the soldiers of the Flying Eagles looked at each other, surprised and happy.

The last time he went to Lingnan, Xiaozhengtai only led 3,000 of them, so he couldn't be considered in command!

The so-called being in command requires at least the command authority of tens of thousands of soldiers, or even hundreds of thousands of soldiers. Only then can it be called being in command!

From ancient times to the present, they have never heard of anyone taking command at the age of six and leading troops on an expedition!

Let alone six years old, even if you live to sixty, you may not be able to take command!

"Alas! I say you are too ill-informed!"

At this moment, Wang Li stood on the far left and curled his lips and smiled.

"Brother Li, you are well-informed. Tell me, what's going on?"

"Yes, Brother Li, you have a good relationship with the young master, please tell us!"

"Sure! Then I will reveal some news to you...!"

Wang Li arranged his hair in a very shameless way, and said proudly: "Your Majesty has promised the young master to take charge and bring hot weapons to destroy the Huns!"

"Thermal weapons? What thermal weapons?"

"Is it the powerful thing that the young master introduced in the newspaper that can knock down the city gate with one cannon?"

The soldiers made their own guesses.

"Eh...! You're right, it's that thing!"

Wang Li nodded under the admiring gazes of everyone.

He overheard these things said by Wang Jian and Wang Ben, and now he just happened to show them off!

"Then I have to go see it!"

"Yes, yes, the Huns have bullied our Great Qin for many years, and they are finally proud of themselves. How can we be without me?"

"I will also follow the young master to conquer the Huns. I will see with my own eyes the Huns who were bombarded by artillery and fled away. Just thinking about it makes me feel happy!"

"You can earn military merit by following the young master, so I have to go too!"

"Young Master, we are all willing to go with you!"

"Yes, we want to achieve military success!"

"Making military exploits...!"

In the courtyard, the three thousand soldiers of the Flying Eagles all raised their arms and shouted, competing one by one.

In Da Qin, if ordinary people want to achieve great success, the fastest way is to achieve military exploits!

As long as you are brave enough on the battlefield, you can be knighted after your victory!

Last time they came back from Lingnan, everyone got rewards!

But of course the more military achievements the better, it would be best if you can be granted a marquis title like General Wang, that would be great, you would be granted the title of wife and son, and your ancestors would be honored!

"Okay! Since you are all willing to follow me, I will never treat you badly...!"

Xiao Zhengtai stood tall and straight with a pair of small hands on his back, "To tell you the truth, Great Qin will win this battle. As long as you follow me, you will definitely have no shortage of military achievements!"

With the assistance of artillery and the bravery of soldiers, harvesting the lives of enemies is just like playing.

"Thank you, young master!"

Everyone thanked him in unison.

When I first followed Xiao Zhengtai, I went there for the high monthly salary.

Unexpectedly, after arriving here, not only would they have meat and wine for every meal, but they would also receive military honors, which they had never dared to imagine before!

Coupled with various rewards, the money received is already higher than their salary!

"Han Xin, Peng Yue, Fan Kuai, Wang Li, you guys go and find all the items on this list for me. I need it when I go on an expedition, so there is no delay!"

Xiao Zhengtai took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it over.

"Okay, young master, don't worry!"

Wang Li hurriedly took it and nodded happily. However, when he saw the writing on it, the smile on his face immediately disappeared, replaced by a look of confusion, "Pig iron, furnace, saltpeter" ...? What are these things? We are marching and fighting, why do we need to bring these things? "

"Brother-in-law, just go if you are told. Where's all the nonsense?"

When he said this, Xiao Zhengtai had a smile on his face, and there was no trace of blame.

But Wang Li understood that this was because he thought he talked too much, "Don't worry, young master, I'll do it right away!"

For no other reason than for his brother-in-law, he must get this matter done!
