The Transmigrated Life of a Salty Fish Family

Chapter 814 The old emperor still hasn't moved...

While Yan Yu was looking at the list, Li Xuemei continued, "You robbed the rebels' food and grass. The news spread in two or three days. Even the King of Ying, who was on his way to the capital, sent people back to ask. The King of Ying's son, your master, and people in the prefecture all came to inquire about the news. By the way, your uncle asked you to come back."

"My uncle told me before that he wanted me to guard Huju with him." Yan Yu raised his head and smiled at Li Xuemei: "Mom, the prince let me be a small flag hahaha! My contribution this time is not small, don't you think I should be promoted? Little Yan, the general flag, hehehe!"

"Your uncle also said in the letter that the prince has been very kind to our family." Li Xuemei said softly, "If you go to Huju, take Qiuxiang with you. Swords and guns are blind. With her around, I feel more at ease."

"Forget it, I think my uncle needs her more." Yan Yu thought for a while and said, "Mom, don't think that the rebels seem to be very capable. In fact, they are just paper tigers. If there is real danger, uncle will definitely not let me go. Since he called me, it means that the situation in Huju is under the control of uncle. Maybe he wants me to go there to gain military merit, hehehe!
Although the training time in Xiao'an Camp is short, I think that during this period of time, we have been able to train well at the junction of Xizhou and Leshan. Everyone has made great progress. At least we have shown our momentum. Now that we are deployed to Huju, we are not much worse than the old border troops. "

"What's more," she showed her two rows of small white teeth, her eyes narrowed into slits as she smiled, "The spears and shields I borrowed from Pan Zheng, the swords, spears and armor sponsored by the rebels, plus what I exchanged from Sister Yu, are more than enough to arm our Yan Family Army. If we take the Yan Family Army today to the tiger's nest, haha, I guarantee that everyone will look at us with new eyes!"

Yan Yu is proud.

She and her father started from scratch.

Xiaoanying had nothing at the beginning, but looking back now, the changes are tremendous.

Facts have proved that the idea of ​​using war to support war is correct.

You can't just stay at home and practice, actual practice is necessary.

The bolder your heart is, the bigger the pot and spatula will be.

"Don't you want to return the weapons you borrowed from Pan Zheng?" Although Li Xuemei was at home, the family was constantly exchanging letters. Before Jiuxiao was taken to the capital by Yan Laoer, the Yan family's communication was smooth and the information was updated at a very high rate.

"Mom!" Yan Yu stretched out the words, and her face became stern. "How can you miss your daughter so much? Am I the one who doesn't pay back the debt?"

Li Xuemei: It’s hard to say.

"Hehe! But, there is nothing written down between us. He was so confused that day, his mind was full of credit, and he nodded in agreement to everything else. I acknowledged that the equipment was borrowed, which was very kind. If I didn't acknowledge it, he had no evidence, so what could he do to me?"

Yan Yu raised her chin and her belly puffed out.

"But I am not the kind of person who keeps my word. If I say it is a loan, it is a loan. The time to return it may be a little later. Yes, a little later."

She changed the subject and talked about the supplies that were brought back this time.

"I originally thought that the food we brought back this time would be enough for us to eat for a long time, but now it seems that my uncle was foresighted and contracted with people in Leshan Prefecture to acquire a lot of land and took good care of it. It looks like we will have a good harvest this year. If the purchase of food from the south can go smoothly and return on schedule, then we can have a good New Year this year!"

Li Xuemei smiled, "Our land is doing very well, thanks to Aunt Rong. While you were away, we harvested a crop of vegetables. We sent some to people we knew, your uncle took a few carts away, Aunt Rong and Qiuxiang pickled a few jars of pickles, and we sold the rest in the city. Our shop has become a grocery store now, selling everything."

"Is it raining here?" Yan Yu asked.

"It rained several times. The old people in the village said that the rain was just right. It watered the ground thoroughly and then the sun came out." Li Xuemei liked to go to the fields when she had nothing to do. The fields looked different every day. The seedlings were getting stronger day by day, which made people happy.

Yan Yu and Li Xuemei said that the chances of connecting with the black-framed girl online might be greater on rainy days.

She also talked about what she changed and did when the platform was launched.

Li Xuemei: "You hid the food in the mountains? Is the place hidden? Will it be found and harmed by wild animals in the mountains?" "Don't worry, mother, I blocked the entrance of the cave with stones." Yan Yu shook her little head: "How could your daughter make such a low-level mistake, it's absolutely fine."

"Then go and pull it back quickly." Li Xuemei said.

I always feel uneasy if I leave it outside.

"But before I go over, I want to do something." Yan Yu closed the roster with a firm tone.

Li Xuemei looked at her, waiting for what to come.

"I will continue to recruit soldiers!" Yan Yu knocked on the roster and said very solemnly: "There are too many people. We can't support them all by ourselves. And these people, as long as they can survive until next year, can create greater value. Therefore, we can't let them go, and we have to find people to share these expenses."

She said in a firm voice: "There is no one more suitable than the prince."

Li Xuemei immediately understood what her daughter meant.

Can't help but laugh.

He joked: "The King of England loves you well."

Yan Yu laughed and said, "Of course, I'm just returning the favor!"

Guanzhou is short of population, so it can support civilians, but it is not as cost-effective as raising soldiers.

For Li Xuemei and Yan Yu, mother and daughter, this is a very clear account, and it is all recorded in their account books.

As long as one person in a family serves in the army, they can not only get the salary from the court, but also have a chance to get extra reward. This chance is greatly increased if there is a rebel army. I don’t know about other places, but in Xiaoan Village, military dependents are treated preferentially. For example, they will be given priority in doing miscellaneous work in the barracks.

The food in Xiao’an Camp is not bad, and we can have meat every few days.

It can be said that if one person serves in the army, the whole family will not starve.

The most important thing is that the military pay is issued by the imperial court. The King of England may need to advance some of the money, but as long as the imperial court recognizes the money, it will always be considered as issued by the imperial court.

By converting civilians into soldiers and injecting money into their salaries, the burden on Xiaoan Village was greatly reduced.

Yan Yu said confidently: "There are so many wounded soldiers on the front line, we need to replenish them, but where will the reinforcements come from? The 5,000 people of my Yan family army are not enough, it would be better if there is an endless supply. If we continue to fight the rebels like this, it will be a protracted battle to defend the city, and we need more and more soldiers."

"Most of those who have fled here are from Xizhou Prefecture and Leshan Prefecture. Their families have been badly damaged by the war and they are full of resentment. Isn't this just right? Fight the rebel king and take back their families. Oh, now they have a slogan."

"Your Highness raised his arm and called for the destruction of the rebel king and the cessation of public grievances. This is what the people want and what the people expect! Hahahaha, why doesn't the old emperor move out and pass on the throne... woooooooooo!"

Li Xuemei blocked her little mouth. This damn girl dared to say anything.

Li Xuemei: You fool, shut your mouth~
Waiter: King of England, Waiter supports you~
