I'm Actually The Big Villain In The Book

Chapter 404 Cannon? ? ?

"Changtian, has Mr. Zhang senior left?"

It was night, and Xu Qingwan, who had been busy all day at Yingfengsheng, finally returned home.

While changing her clothes, she asked Wei Changtian who was drawing the "cannon design" next to him: "Did you say when you will be back?"

"return?"

Wei Changtian replied without raising his head, "He's not coming back."

"what?"

Xu Qingwan was taken aback when she heard the words, and the movements of her hands also paused.

She actually is not so reluctant to part with the old man, but she is a little worried about Agou: "What about Agou? How is today? Did you cry?"

"No, you should eat and drink."

Wei Changtian curled his lips: "This little girl is quite tolerant of filming, I want to see how long she can hold it."

"You"

Didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. After hitting Wei Changtian, Comrade Xiao Xu was still a little worried: "What if I can't hold back, how about I go and comfort her."

"It's up to you, but I don't think she needs you to coax her."

Wei Changtian stretched his waist: "Some things will get better after a long time."

"That's true"

Xu Qingwan nodded slightly, but still planned to come back early tomorrow to talk to Agou.

After a brief chat, the two continued to go about their business, and there were only slight noises left in the room.

Until Yuan'er and Qiu Yun walked in with copper basins.

"My lord, madam, it's time to wash up."

"Oh."

Nodding his head, Wei Changtian put down the hard pen and admired his own "masterpiece" happily.

And Yuan'er, who happened to walk behind him, also saw this "cannon design drawing", and asked curiously:

"Young master, what is this painting?"

"cannon."

While washing his face, Wei Changtian casually gave the answer.

And obviously, the word "cannon" is obviously not in Yuan'er's vocabulary.

"cannon?"

She carefully looked up, down, left, and right at the pattern that looked like something: "What is a cannon?"

"Wow! Wow!"

Wei Changtian, who was busy washing his face, didn't have time to explain, but Xu Qingwan, who was next to him, replied with a smile, "My lord said it's a kind of weapon."

"Huh? Weapons?"

Yuan'er pouted and muttered softly, "It doesn't look like a weapon, no matter how you look at it, it's not serious."

"Pfft!"

Xu Qingwan and Qiuyun were immediately amused by this sentence, and they laughed from ear to ear.

Only Wei Changtian was greatly humiliated, and angrily snatched the towel from Yuan'er's hand.

"What's going on in your head all day!"

"Okay, it's done washing, let's go out!"

"Yes~Sir~"

Yuan'er made a long sound on purpose, picked up the copper basin with a smile, and walked out of the house with Qiuyun.

But when she turned around and closed the door, she blinked and said something into the room.

"Young master, will Madam be able to see your cannon tonight?"

"???"

"Come on! Not only can she see it! You can too!"

"Heck! I don't want to see it!"

"Young master and madam, let's rest early~"

"."

The laughter outside the house faded away, but Yuan'er and Qiuyun still didn't stay to enjoy the "cannon" with Comrade Xiao Xu.

Wei Changtian was angry and amused, so he went back to the table and looked at the design drawing he had drawn carefully.

It doesn't matter if you don't read it, the more he reads it, the more he feels that what Yuan'er said makes sense, and even makes him feel a little unconfident.

If this thing f*ck is really made, it is estimated that the biggest lethality is to laugh the enemy to death!

"Wan'er, is this really like that object?"

Scratching his head, Wei Changtian was going to seek Xu Qingwan's opinion.

But the latter didn't answer, just kept covering his mouth and laughing.

"What are you laughing at!"

Wei Changtian became anxious immediately: "I'm asking you seriously, tell me if you look like me!"

"Goose, goose, not like."

Comrade Xiao Xu laughed more and more vigorously, but at a certain moment he suddenly blushed.

She slowly picked up the hard pen on the table, and then added a few strokes on the design drawing under Wei Changtian's puzzled gaze.

After the change, the cannon has not changed in other places, except that the barrel has become a lot longer.

"This, this is like."

"????"

Nothing to say all night.

The next day, Ning Yuke and Qing Xian came back from the south.

Wei Changtian is a little afraid of the queen now, so he didn't go to the palace, but just found an accompanying official to briefly understand the situation in Datong City.

The new city has already begun full-scale construction, and it is estimated that the city wall will be built in three months.

And as long as the city wall is built, the monster race can basically start to "live in" one after another.

Of course, this matter must not be exposed so early, so let's build it like this first.

Another day.

Du Chang sent back news that the troops had entered the Hundred Thousand Mountains as planned and had seen the Ten Thousand Demonic Beasts.

The Yaozu side is very cooperative, but there are also some minor situations.

For example, some Demonic Beasts are unwilling to be the mounts of pawns whose strength is lower than it.

For example, some soldiers don't want to ride Demonic Beasts.

Another example is that some soldiers fell from the sky while riding the flying Demonic Beasts and so on.

After all, it was the first time that humans and monsters cooperated, and it needed an adaptation stage, so Wei Changtian didn't pay too much attention to it. After asking Liang Zhen when he would return, he stopped caring about the details of training the new army.

That's it, another day.

On the third day after Lao Zhangtou left, Chu Xianping finally came back.

His negotiation this time can be described as a "big victory", borrowing a full 200,000 artisan coolies from the four surrounding states.

Of course, it was said to be a loan, but it was actually a demand. Wei Changtian never thought of returning these people back.

For some time to come, these 200,000 people will enter Shuzhou in the form of "refugees", and then go straight to Datong to participate in the construction of the new city.

And Wei Changtian will provide them with a lot of rewards, as well as a piece of "self-owned fertile land" within the boundaries of Shuzhou.

With fields and money, these people will most likely not go back, and only want to bring their wives and children to Shuzhou to live.

At that time, there will undoubtedly be another wave of population influx.

Therefore, Wei Changtian, who had already realized the importance of population, was very satisfied with this, and decided to go to the south to "inspect" the construction of Datong City in full swing.

However, his visit on the spur of the moment failed to materialize after all.

Because just an hour before he was about to leave, news suddenly came from Dafeng——

After several days of marching, Daning's 400,000 troops finally arrived at Fengyuan City yesterday.

After resting overnight, the army officially began to attack the city at dawn today.

When the spies spread the news, the first wave of siege battles had ended, and in just one confrontation, no less than 30,000 soldiers died on both sides.

And these are not the key.

What surprised Wei Changtian the most was the last sentence of the intelligence.

Emperor Dafeng Li Qi came to the city wall to supervise the battle, but was attacked by an unknown second rank master, seriously injured and dying.
