The path of the villain is not easy

Chapter 165 Pipeline

Li Yan stretched out his hand helplessly and touched his forehead.

"Uncle, do you know that I am not talking about that question?"

Li Xian looked at Li Yan and smiled, then became serious: "Okay, I know you hate Jia Yan, but as long as the lord uses him for a day, we can't touch him, so at this time, all we need is patience." .”

"Do you know? Patience is a good thing, it can..." After saying a few serious words, Li Xian started talking nonsense again.

However, Li Yan was a little distracted at this time, because his uncle's words reminded him of Li Chuang's attitude towards him in class today. Thinking of this, a ruthless light flashed in his eyes.

Compared to Jia Yan, he felt that he hated Li Chuang, the titular protagonist, even more, and hated him for being unfair to him.

No matter what I say, I can be regarded as his fellow clan, and I can still harm him. As a result, not only did this person not adopt his own opinion but that of an outsider Jia Yan, his attitude towards himself was also extremely indifferent.

Poor Li Chuang, the leader of the grain army, was thinking of adopting a compromise method at the time, saving a little face for both sides, not completely negating anyone, and not completely affirming anyone, thinking that neither side should be offended, but the reality is that neither side is satisfied. to good.

In the blink of an eye, four days have passed.

In the room, Changsun Ji looked gloomyly at a soldier reporting the letter down the hall.After that, he closed his eyes, exhaled heavily, suppressed the anger in his heart, and then calmed down.

He waved his hand to make the soldiers who reported the letter retreat.

This was a few days ago, Changsun Ji asked Guo Dingxin to send soldiers to urge the logistics for food.Now that he came back from the grain army, he also brought him a super hot incident, that is, Xia Houchun refused to send anyone to deliver the grain at all.

The old Prime Minister Xiahou Fishing and Hunting should be said to be an old minister who really served the country and the people. Before leaving the army, the most difficult part of being a soldier was the supply, which was borne by him alone.

As the grandson of the old prime minister, although Changsun Ji had some conflicts with him at the Mid-Autumn Festival party, it was just a matter of face.Thinking of Xia Hou's entrustment of fishing and hunting, Xia Houchun should restrain his unreliability and not make trouble for him in terms of supply.

However, from the beginning of the battle to the present, there has been a problem in this place, and Changsun Ji feels that he still thinks highly of him.In this kind of military and national affairs, he can still mix his own personal hatred and play some tricks.It was hopelessly stupid.

Since Xia Houchun dared to make trouble for him, then don't blame him for being ruthless and not saving him face.Once the war started, Changsun Ji didn't put so much thought on this aspect.

Changsun Ji slowly opened his eyes, a ruthless look flashed in his eyes, and told Wang Gang who was standing aside, "Wang Gang, please work hard."

When Wang Gang heard Changsun Ji calling him, he hurriedly bent down and bowed his hands, as if obeying orders.

Changsun Ji went on to say: "You set off immediately, go to Puyang, find Xue Zhongzheng, and tell him, don't rush to attack the city, first send me troops to surround me with the logistics troops, and then immediately prepare to transport food to the city. Hinata."

Speaking of this, Changsun Ji paused for a moment, and then continued: "If someone obstructs, no matter what their identity is, they will be killed. Let them do it with confidence, and I will take care of what happens."

"Obey." Wang Gang bowed his hands to obey the order, then straightened up, ready to leave.

When he raised his head, Wang Gang took a deep look at Changsun Ji. He knew what Changsun Ji meant. It was Changsun Ji who wanted to kill Xia Houchun, but he didn't say anything to persuade him.

As Changsun Ji's personal butler, Wang Gang knows what he should do and what he should not do. In other words, he knows what Changsun Ji needs him to do.

What he needs is a voice that will not question no matter what the master says outrageous orders, and who will ignore everything else, like a mad dog, and go forward to execute decisively.

Since passing through Dunqiu, he has understood this problem and has worked hard to develop in this direction.

Watching Wang Gang turn and leave, Changsun Ji breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, he didn't care much about Xia Houchun's life and death. Xia Houchun missed the opportunity of the battle. As the commander, even if he killed him, at least on the bright side It can be said that, as for Xiahou's family's revenge, he is not timid.

If he was just a civilian commander, he might still be afraid of Xiahou's family, but as the eldest son of the Changsun Mansion, his status is not lower than Xiahouchun's.

And for this matter, he is also sure, he is now in the battlefield.If it wasn't for the royal family of the Yan Kingdom and the civil and military brains of the Manchu Dynasty, they would not have transferred themselves back to Beijing anyway.

As for going back after the war, as long as Xiahou Yuhune survived, Changsun Ji didn't think there would be any major incidents, because Xiahou Yuhune would not allow Yan Guo's court to become a mess because of his family affairs.

Changsun Ji stood up, stretched his waist, tidied up his attire, and took several guards out of the mansion. He first went to a place full of fire.

At this time, the weather has turned cold, and the people on the streets have begun to put on thick clothes.But in this place, the people inside are still only wearing single clothes, with their arms bare.

This is the blacksmith camp, a new camp opened by Changsun Ji in order to prepare the supplies for the defense of the city as soon as possible. In addition to the blacksmiths of the army, there are also blacksmiths recruited from Yangping City.

The equipment is built 24 hours a day without stopping, divided into two shifts, and the furnace is not resting.

In order to be able to create more tools for defending the city, Changsun Ji took great pains. He not only built a new Yingkou to gather the craftsmen of the whole city here, but also moved the assembly line from his previous life up for this purpose.

Strictly mark the size of each weapon, and forge each weapon separately, just like the bow and arrow that consumes the most in each battle. There are groups that specialize in forging arrows, and there are groups that specialize in polishing arrow shafts, as well as installing feathers. Assembling the arrow branches is the responsibility of a dedicated group of people.

In addition to craftsmen's hands-on work and installation, craftsmen are no longer required to do it. Changsun Ji specially equipped craftsmen with auxiliary staff, which saved the craftsmen's time.

This greatly improves work efficiency.The number of bows and arrows produced every day alone has doubled compared to before.

After coming out of the Iron Camp, Changsun Ji went from inside the city to outside the city to inspect various work for a while, and then returned to the mansion again, and ordered his personal guards to invite Guo Dingxin and He Zheng, because Wang Liang was not his turn today. He was on duty by the river, so Changsun Ji didn't intend to call him.
