There is Room For the Poor Daughter

Chapter 925: 925

Chapter 925 Chapter 925, Raid

Along the border between Xiliang and Xiliao, twelve military towns with tall and heavy walls have been built, and cavalry patrols every day, which gives the people of Xiliang a great sense of security.

Recapture Danhe, retake it and build a military town. With these two things, Xiao Yeyang can be considered to have a firm foothold in Xiliang. Not only that, but also has a good reputation.

Ganzhou Sanitation Station, Shiye Wang sorted out the news reported by the military town patrol, and he was happy and sighed in his heart.

I am pleased that every military town has defense and drills in accordance with the established military regulations. Without the previous passive defense, it has the vitality and spirit of a real soldier.

lamented that the generals and soldiers were so obedient because they were convinced of Xiao Yeyang.

Xiao Ye masculinely took over the frontier army, not to mention others, but he also felt that he was a convenience in his status, but now, he and everyone have seen that he is based on his own ability.

Seeing Master Wang with a happy face, the guard could not help asking: "Master, why is it so happy?"

Master Wang laughed but didn’t say anything. How could it be unhappy that the Xiliang Border Army had a mainstay person?

The twelve army towns operate in a unified manner and support each other. The Xiliang Border Army is finally not as scattered as before.

Xiao Mansion.

After the military town of ?? was running on the right track, Xiao Yeyang stayed in the mansion to accompany Daohua except for occasionally going out to see the soldiers' training.

"I saw that your belly is a little bigger. It must be our child who has grown taller."

Xiao Yeyang stared at Daohua’s belly fiercely.

Daohua squeezed the meat on her waist sadly: "The flesh is long, Grandma Li said, she won’t show her feelings for four months."

While speaking, he looked at Xiao Yeyang.

"After giving birth, I will get fat, will you dislike me?"

Xiao Yeyang smiled and handed the bird’s nest porridge to Daohua: "You have to gain weight. I like your meaty look."

Dao Lahua drank the porridge and gave him a slanted look, so she wouldn't believe him.

Xiao Yeyang smiled and looked at Daohua. Seeing that her face had become a little rounder and she had the charming look of her childhood, he couldn't help but stretched out his hand and squeezed the soft cheeks. When Daohua stared at him, He quickly stopped.

"I'm fine today, let's make a second picture for you."

Taohua quickly put down the porridge bowl, nodded and said: "Okay, okay, just draw as I am now, and I will often see what I look like when I am pregnant."

Xiao Yeyang saw that Daohua was so interested, he smiled and let Defu prepare paper, brushes and paint.

In the room, the charcoal basin was burning to dissipate the cold wind outside. Standing behind the desk, Xiao Yeyang continued to outline the paintbrush in his hand, raising his eyes to look at Daohua from time to time.

Daohua sat for a while, she couldn't sit still, she couldn't help standing up and walking away. Seeing that Xiao Yeyang had no objection, she simply picked up the scissors and trimmed the flowers in the vase.

"It's really long and round."

When the painting was finished, Daohua couldn't wait to take it over and look at it: "Face is round, and body is round." Then, she looked at Xiao Yeyang, "Next month you will continue to paint for me, and I will keep the changes during my pregnancy. Come down."

Xiao Yeyang responded with a smile, "This is a good idea."

At this moment, Defulue's very anxious voice sounded outside the door: "Master, it's not good. The Xiliao cavalry raided Xintunwei Xinzhong Town."

Xiao Yeyang's expression stern: "I'll go out and have a look, and you will save the painting."

Daohua nodded, and quickly took Crane's loft and put it on him: "Be careful."

Seeing the worry in Daohua’s eyes, Xiao Yeyang hugged the person in his arms: "Don't worry, I will be back soon."

Watching Xiao Yeyang strode away, Daohua didn't want to look at the painting. She told Gu Yu to put the painting away, and she stood in front of the window watching the snowflakes flying in the yard.

Xiliang is located in the frontier, and the frontier is also a place where wars are prone. Before coming here, she was ready to face wars, but now that things are coming, she still can't help worrying.

"Girl, my uncle is superb martial arts, and nothing will happen." Gu Yu didn't want Daohua to worry, and couldn't help but comfort.

Daohua nodded and was silent for a while before Lixia brought pen, ink, paper and ink.

Because of the promotion of high-yield grains, although the food in the health station is not rich this year, it is barely enough to feed the frontier army and military households, and she is not asking Qin Xiaoliu to continue to send grain here.

Now that Xiliao suddenly started a war, she could not help Xiao Yeyang, so she could only bring a lot of rations to ensure sufficient rations.

This time Daohua not only asked Qin Xiaoliu to transport the grain collected by her and Xiao Yeyang’s farm to Xiliang, but also asked him to buy a batch of silver from outside.

Twelve Army Town, where nearly 300,000 frontier troops were stationed, Daohua prepared two-year rations for this army at one time and asked Qin Xiaoliu to send it to Xiliang in batches.

"In two years, Xiao Yeyang will definitely be able to get rid of the Xiliao people."

took the note to the dark guard and sent it back to the capital with carrier pigeons. Daohua called Cao Chuan again and asked him about the ranch.

"How many cattle and sheep are there in the ranch today?"

Cao Chuan: "Madam, since the Dan River was retaken, the pasture has been growing vigorously, and now there are more than 50,000 cattle and sheep."

Daohua thought for a while, she was not sure if Xiliao was about to fight Daxia soon, but in order to prevent it, it is better to raise more cattle and sheep, after all, soldiers also have to eat meat.

Even if she raises a lot, she is not afraid. With the caravan from the Li family and the Sun family, she is not worried about the sales of cattle and horses.

"If you raise more cattle and sheep next year, you will also raise more camels."

After Cao Chuan left, Yan Shouhou came again.

Daohua said directly to him: "You go to Li's and Sun's and tell them, let them bring more salt."

The salt from Xiliang is all shipped from other places. There has been a lack of salt here for a long time. Once a war breaks out, the army may also suffer from salt shortage.

After ordering these things, Daohua lay on the recliner to rest.

Xiao Yeyang came back in mid-November.

Looking at his shaggy beard and his eyes covered with bloodshot eyes, Daohua felt very distressed, and personally took over the toiletries to help him clean it up.

Knowing that Daohua was worried about Yan Wenxiu in Xintunwei, Xiao Yeyang said, “Big Brother, it’s okay. This time the Xiliao raid, I just wanted to test the defense capabilities of the military town. I didn’t break the defense and cross the border.”

Daohua nodded, and took the chicken soup that Gu Yu handed over: "Drink some soup to warm your stomach."

Xiao Yeyang gurgled and drank it in a few sips: "The frontier army is used to being passive. Even with active training this year, facing tens of thousands of cavalry soldiers suddenly rushed in, the morale was defeated, and many people were killed and injured this time."

Daohua hurriedly asked, "Do the people of Xiliao want to break out of a war?"

Xiao Yeyang shook his head: "This time it should be just a test. I want to see the defense and response capabilities of the military town. Obviously, the military town has done too badly in this regard, and there is no coordination and cooperation ability in the war."

"Fortunately, I have kept people in every military town and passed the news of the raid in time, otherwise the casualties will be even greater."

"I thought it would be easy for a while, but I can see what the frontier army looks like. This year, I have been patrolled and drilled in various military towns."

"Xiliao will not give me time to train the frontier army. This time it is a test, and the next time it may be a real battle."

Daohua: "Isn't it said that Xiliao has not developed well in recent years, how dare they suddenly fight against Daxia?"

Xiao Yeyang's eyes narrowed: "There is indeed something wrong with this matter. When he regained the Dan River last year, Yelukanda retreated without saying anything. It can be seen that Xiliao was unable to fight against Daxia at that time."

"It's only a year now, how come you dare to raid the army town?"
