Chapter 175 Long Night and Many Dreams

Chapter 175 Long Night and Many Dreams
Bai Dashan looked at the big, fragrant peach in his hand, then looked at Bai Tao who was about to return to the tent, and grinned: "Thank you, auntie."

Although I will definitely give it to other villagers later, the fact that I gave it to him first is different!
If he didn't have so many things to arrange right now, Bai Dashan would probably have shown off the two big peaches to the whole village.

As long as the stones and spikes started moving, the people in the valley would have no choice but to know about it. Of course, Bai Dashan had no intention of hiding it.

People were coming and going carrying stones and spikes, and Yang Song saw this scene.

"Young Master, Young Master, looking at the situation, it must be the rebels causing trouble again." Otherwise, they wouldn't have started messing around again.

Lu Xiaohao: "Well, this is not surprising."

The rebels will definitely seek revenge after suffering a defeat here. Moreover, they have heard that there is a large caravan here, transporting a lot of supplies, so they will not let it go.

At this time, Bai Dashan was making arrangements not far away, saying, "Everyone, hurry up. The rebels have already left the camp and will be here in less than two hours."

Hearing this, Yang Song lowered his voice and said, "Sir, aren't you curious about how they knew the rebels were coming from such a distance?"

Bai Dashan has been on the mountain all the time, or rather, the people from the Baijiabao caravan seem to be all on the mountain. How could they know the situation below the mountain?
"Not curious!" Lu Xiaohao said in his heart, as if I could know if I was curious.

Isn't it just sending someone to keep an eye on them, and then spreading the news once they find out?

As for the various channels for transmitting information, it is not easy for outsiders to know them.

"Oh." Yang Song's desire to gossip was interrupted.

He suddenly felt that it would be more interesting to chat with the old men and women in the Baijiabao caravan when he was free, rather than talking about these things with his master.

However, Yang Song was quiet for a while.

"Sir, when you told Miss Bai your last name, she didn't seem to react." After saying this, Yang Song looked around and saw that no one was around, so he lowered his voice again.

Lu Xiaohao: “Yeah.”

Yang Song continued to speculate: "Sir, do you think Miss Bai really doesn't care or is she hiding it... and hasn't reacted?"

He originally wanted to say that it was hidden very deeply, but then he thought that Miss Bai was only six years old, still a little baby.

But I don’t know if Miss Bai can understand, there are many adults in the Baijiabao caravan.

They have traveled all over the country, how could they not know?

It is a well-known fact that the royal family of Jin was surnamed Lu.

His master told him the truth, but the Baijiabao caravan had a lukewarm reaction.

Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about lunch, they didn’t even give us two extra pieces of meat.

Lu Xiaohao frowned slightly and said nothing.

Yang Song thought for a moment and said, "Although Miss Bai is young, I think that someone as smart, courageous and resolute as her should know this."

The master and servant had no idea that Bai Tao had traveled through time and space and took the entire village with her to escape. They had no idea of ​​the surname and name of the Jin royal family.

Taohua Village used to be located in a remote area, and the villagers had to busy themselves with eating, drinking, defecating and urinating every day when they opened their eyes. In ancient times, the names of royal relatives were extremely taboo and were not allowed to be mentioned, so how could anyone know them?

In ancient times when transportation and information were not convenient, sometimes emperors would change for several years without some villages even knowing about it.

The people sent by the rebels this time were indeed capable. As soon as they arrived at the foot of the mountain, they sent people to launch a tentative attack, with about one hundred to eighty people at a time.

After three or four times, although there were many casualties each time, we also found out what weapons the people on the mountain had.

It is quite impressive to tie gunpowder bombs to arrows, but the rebels dare not try it easily.

The rebels guarding the foot of the mountain knew exactly what types of weapons were brought up the mountain, but they did not know about the uncertain factor of the white peaches in Taohua Village.

"Auntie, they are setting up camp and don't seem to be planning to attack." Bai Dashan came running over to report, holding a telescope.

"It's not surprising. We have a good position, which is really disadvantageous to them on the mountain road." Bai Taoxin said. No matter who it was, he would not let his men die in vain. In today's exploratory attack, the other side lost more than 200 people. They must find a chance to avenge their previous defeat.

"Long nights and many dreams."

The wind was a bit strong on the mountain, and Bai Tao's words had a different meaning to Bai Dashan.

"Aunt, are you saying that they will attack at night?"

Bai Tao thought for a while and nodded: "It's probably true." Otherwise, why would he be guarding at the foot of the mountain.

Speed ​​is of the essence in war. The rebels have besieged Yancheng for such a long time, and with so many people, the daily loss of food for people and horses is not small, otherwise they would not have sent people to plunder and "collect food" everywhere.

Although most people in ancient times suffered from night blindness, on a cold and windy night, if the rebels at the foot of the mountain wanted to attack the mountain, the chances of success would be higher at night than during the day.

The rebels at the foot of the mountain did have this idea, so they had already set up their stoves to cook, preparing to eat and drink their fill and take a nap, and then attack the mountain in the middle of the night.

While the rebels were busy at the foot of the mountain, Taohua Village was also not idle.

In an open space, several boxes were scattered around and some spare parts were carefully placed aside.

Several people put their heads and shoulders together, with serious expressions.

"Is that right?"

“Why do I feel like it doesn’t match?”

"Is it a mistake?"

"Mucheng, can you do it?"

“I think I spelled it wrong.”

"Don't bother me." Bai Mucheng didn't even raise his head, his eyes scanning the parts in his hand: "This thing is amazing, I have to study it carefully."

At this time, Bai Dashan passed by and saw that the parts had not been assembled yet. He frowned and asked, "Which one is this?"

“The first one.”

Bai Dashan was surprised: "You haven't even made the first one?"

"Ah."

Someone else said, "Mu Cheng said that this thing is complicated and he needs to study it carefully."

Bai Dashan's forehead twitched, and he said unhappily, "It will take two days to study it. If we don't assemble it before dawn, it will be fatal if we make a mistake in the dark and can't use it."

This is a powerful weapon used by the rebels, there is no time to waste.

Bai Mucheng raised his head at this time and said, "Village Chief, I know."

He knew it very well, but he really had to figure it out for the first time.

Seeing this, Bai Dashan suddenly said, "Don't you understand?"

"Uh..." Bai Mucheng paused awkwardly and explained, "I need some time. These things are too delicate. If I don't figure them out, it will be a problem to install one, let alone five."

After all, I still don’t understand.

Bai Dashan wanted to roll his eyes: "Just follow the instructions."

"Isn't there an instruction manual? Just follow the instructions step by step." Do I need him to teach me?

"Ah? Instructions?"

Now it was Bai Mucheng and the others' turn to be confused.
