Ying Ying smiled slightly, her tone became gentler, and she deliberately asked: "What about the next sentence?"

"The next sentence is about knocking down the tiger when it comes. Oh, no, it is knocking down the tiger when it comes. Well, it seems to be the same, I can't remember clearly." The little girl frowned and scratched her head.

Ying Ying chuckled and rubbed her little sister's head, knowing that this was an adult's joke, but her girl actually took it seriously.

Wei'er also laughed twice. Knowing that her sister had finally calmed down, she felt relieved and quickly handed over the roast chicken again, "Sister, you eat it, it's delicious!"

Ying Ying touched the girl's head and reached out to take the roast chicken. Seeing that they had arrived at the door, the two of them laughed and walked in.

…………………

It's another beautiful morning. The crisp autumn temperature and the clear blue sky make Huang Li feel comfortable and uplifted.

Just after washing up, Ying Ying stepped on the spot to deliver the meal, on time as if holding her watch.

Well, there is shredded chicken in the porridge, which is salty and delicious, not bad. This girl is very attentive. Huang Li glanced at Ying Ying in the courtyard and nodded lightly.

Yingying didn't notice it, so she took out the quilt and hung it to dry in the courtyard. Her slim figure, floral skirt and coat, and long black hair hanging down to her waist gave off an aura of youth.

Huang Li finished his meal quickly, checked his backpack, packed the water bottle, and was ready to wait for Li Yue to arrive and head to the training ground together.

"Don't deliver food at noon and evening. I may be busy until late today and may not come back to stay." Huang Li said to Ying Ying who was cleaning up the dishes.

"The slave family understands." Ying Ying held the tray, feeling a little disappointed for no reason. After a while, she gave a brief salute and turned around to leave.

Being taciturn, even timid, this may be the standard of conduct for ancient women!

Huang Li wasn't sure whether ordinary people and women from wealthy families were the same. But he was sure that they were not as open-minded as later generations.

Li Yue arrived on time, bringing two soldiers with him. Huang Li's followers, Xiao Zhang and Xiao Zhao, also appeared, followed him, mounted their horses, and rushed to the training ground.

Being familiar with the road, they arrived at the training ground in less than two hours. Huang Li didn't take a break and immediately went to check the preparations for the camp.

That's right, the "battalion" formed by about twenty professionals who know how to dig mines and wells has been given a new name by Huang Li.

A section of the village wall outside Huangliang Town is said to have been built during the Yuan Dynasty. It is in dilapidated condition, but there are still dozens of meters that are relatively intact, making it a perfect target for tunnel blasting.

"Mr. Huang, the tunnel has been dug and I have checked it." Lu Sanwei stood with Huang Li at the entrance of the tunnel and kindly dissuaded him: "It's narrow, stuffy, and quite dangerous, so you don't have to go down in person."

?"

Lu Sanwei was not tall, but he was very sturdy. The left side of his face was injured, probably from fire, and the corners of his eyes were adhesions, causing his eyes to be different in size.

Huang Li was optimistic about his cleverness and could better understand his lectures. He was also very curious about his name, and after asking about it, he found out that there was something special about it.

"The Analects of Confucius": A gentleman has three fears: fear of destiny, fear of adults, and fear of the words of saints. Unexpectedly, this name actually came from the mouth of Confucius.

"This actual exercise must be successful. If you can go down, why can't I?" Huang Li waved his hands and declined Lu Sanwei's kindness.

Linguo Duke Li Laiheng and important generals are here to observe. If they fail, it will be a small shame. It will be a big deal if their confidence in attacking Yiling is frustrated.

Lu Sanwei had no choice but to accompany him personally. He first went down into the shaft and then moved forward along the tunnel.

The tunnel was dark, so Huang Li turned on the solar flashlight. It was not the kind that only lights up when the sun shines, but doesn't light up when there is no sun.

The light in the cave immediately became brighter. He immediately asked Lu Sanwei, who was full of surprise, to put out the oil lamp so as not to consume too much oxygen.

As a drill, the tunnel naturally does not need to be too long, but it is still more than fifty meters long. Although the soil quality is not bad, Huang Li still requires two pillars and one beam for support to ensure absolute safety.

Because the distance is short, the ventilation issue is not very important. But Huang Li also asked Lu Sanwei and others to make preparations, such as using manual blowers for passive ventilation or using hollow bamboo tubes to hit the ground.

Only by thinking thoughtfully and meticulously on the battlefield can we have adequate responses to emergencies. For example, the groundwater level is high, the soil is loose, or the tunnels are long distances, etc.

When he reached the end, Huang Li saw the foundation of the village wall and had already taken out the medicine room as he requested.

After careful inspection, Huang Li pointed with his finger and said: "After the gunpowder is filled, a wall will be built here. Because the amount of work is large, today I will use a simple method. Place the gunpowder here, blow up the tunnel, and seal it."

Lu Sanwei thought for a while and asked: "The gunpowder fuse must pass through the hollow bamboo tube before it can be led outside."

Huang Li nodded appreciatively, which was why he was optimistic about Lu Sanwei.

He can think of solutions quickly and does not need to teach by hand or repeatedly, which saves him a lot of time and energy.

After discussing with Lu Sanwei the layout of a section of tunnel to be blown down, the two of them came out of the tunnel. Li Yue was waiting outside, very worried and anxious.

"Mr. Huang, it's better not to do it yourself in the future." Li Yue opened his mouth and advised: "Especially this kind of more dangerous work."

Huang Li didn't take it seriously, smiled, and said: "There will be no need for it in the future. Lu Sanwei learned quickly and is qualified for a big job." After saying that, he told Lu Sanwei to transport the gunpowder inside.

"Mr. Huang, my father and others have already arrived. They are waiting over there to observe." Li Yue pointed to the mat tent not far away and asked Huang Li for his opinion, "Would you like to go see me first, or finish this work?"

Side work?"

Huang Li thought for a while and said, "No more going back and forth. Let's finish this side first. After the blasting is successful, we can go to see the Duke."

Li Yue did not force himself and sent his own soldiers to report back, but he still stayed with Huang Li.

Li Yue knew about the arrival of Yuan Zongdi, Duke of Jingguo, but he deliberately didn't say it for fear of affecting Huang Li. Anyway, he would see him soon, but now that he has said it, he would have to explain and answer, which would waste a lot of time and effort.

In the banquet shed, Li Laiheng and Yuan Zongdi were sitting in chairs, chatting casually. A hundred meters away was the village wall.

They had just seen it. The wall was two meters thick and one foot high. Although it was not as good as a fortified city, it was enough for practice.

"Well, it's similar to acupoint attack, but not the same." Yuan Zongdi looked at the simple diagram drawn by Li Yue and was not too surprised.

Some parts of the diagram are not detailed and clear, and there are few text labels, such as filling gunpowder, sealing the powder chamber, etc., and there are no records.
