But they are also closely related to Shazhou to the west of Mianzhou, where there are a lot of machinery and facilities.
Hou Shou couldn't help but gently tugged on him and reminded him in a low voice: "Brother, you are right to listen to the princess."
The prince didn't say anything yet. The eldest lady's decision must be correct. Hasn't it been proved long ago?
Chu Ji felt the displeased look from Xiao Xian and suddenly woke up. His blood slowly faded away and he felt that he was really impulsive.
However, when Lu Li and the others were killed, the prince had no scruples at all.
Are they afraid of Shanzhi?
The messenger had already left on horseback, and at the same time, there were flying pigeons delivering the message. These were all mobilized by Shen Mingzhu from Daizhou Farm. They spent a lot of money on training. At first, everyone thought that pigeons might be raised just for fun.
I never thought it could be used for this purpose.
Once the homing pigeon is domesticated, it is a very effective assistant.
But after all, it is not that easy to tame them, and there are not many smart pigeons, so even if they are successfully tamed, the number is still not enough.
The homing pigeons only live in the main camp, and there are no pastures.
Soon, the Northwest Ranch reported back that four of their soldiers were dead and thirty others were injured. Fortunately, ten special training soldiers cooperated with the command and the casualties were not further increased.
The dead people were killed by the enemy when the patrolling soldiers were first attacked. After they were discovered, they had already fought back and minimized the casualties.
However, the methods of those who were killed were very cruel, and it was not just as simple as killing.
Fortunately, they immediately sent people to push all the machinery into the pit and bury it. Even if the kind and naive people arrived, they could only destroy some of the houses they built, but nothing else could be destroyed at all.
Now they have retreated to Ranches No. 4 and No. 5 respectively, strengthening patrols together to guard against enemy sneak attacks.
After reading the secret report, Shen Mingzhu's expression became tense and relaxed, especially when she saw the killings, her eyes became even more awe-inspiring and cold.
She felt a little relieved at the end, and handed the secret report to Xiao Xian, "Your Majesty, it's time for us to take action."
Xiao Xian held her little hand and said, "You are here, I will take someone there."
Shen Mingzhu shook his head, a narrow light flashed in the corner of his eyes, and curled his lips and said: "Let Chu Ji stay, let's go."
Xiao Xian couldn't help but laugh, "Hey, isn't this punishment a bit harsh?"
To leave a person who wants to fight most to stay behind and guard the home is as heart-wrenchingly uncomfortable as a hungry traveler looking at a large piece of ripe peaches only to find that he cannot eat them.
Shen Mingzhu hummed: "He is too impatient and will lead other people to bad things."
With that said, she walked out. The woman at the door opened the bead curtain, and she and Xiao Xian walked into the yard.
All the special training soldiers left in the camp have been assembled. They are all dressed in black and have black faces, only revealing a pair of black eyes, like swords unsheathed, which makes people feel chilly.
Shen Mingzhu gave instructions and counted the number of people. There were thirty-five people in total, and the remaining five people were on the spot to protect them.
Including Hou Shou and several team leaders, there were a total of forty-three people, setting off to the northwest.
Chu Ji followed him spontaneously, but Hou Shou shouted on the spot: "Chu Ji, the princess orders you to guard where you are and wait for everyone's return."
After saying that, he ran away for fear that Chu Ji would kick him.
