Jiang Pengji could also see that Bai Ning did not take this matter to heart at all.
However, this reaction was normal. After all, in Bai Ning's mind, firecrackers were toys that children played with during the New Year. If such a toy could really play a role on the battlefield, it would be as ridiculous as someone telling Jiang Pengji that a child's toy gun could destroy a planet with one shot. Besides, firecrackers were so capable, why hadn't the ancestors discovered it?
She smiled and said, "Interesting ideas are the key to innovation. How can you climb higher if you blindly believe in the things of the predecessors?"
So what if it was whimsical?
Since ancient times, how many epoch-making inventions had not been derived from "whimsical" ideas?
Bai Ning secretly shook his head when he heard this. Sometimes he wondered what kind of person the lord he followed was.
She had the ambition to pacify the world and end the chaos. She should be a broad-minded leader who cared about the people's livelihood. In this aspect, she did a good job … No, it should be said that she did a good job in every aspect, so much so that people had doubts about her identity. Was she a simple politician, a wise monarch, a brave general, or … a whimsical Mohist child?
No matter which identity it was, Bai Ning could not feel a trace of disgust or disgust. Instead, he would be led by the nose by her thoughts.
"If my lord finds it interesting, you might as well send someone to try it out. I have a pen passed down from my ancestors in my family. Maybe it will come in handy."
Bai Ning was not optimistic in his heart, but he would not directly refute her on the surface. Instead, he would go along with her wishes.
After all, he was a feudal lord who had power over the world. Naturally, he had the right to "whimsical" ideas.
Whatever she wanted to do, there would always be people who would be willing to sacrifice their lives for her, put it into practice for her, and please her.
Jiang Pengji shook her head. "It's not necessary at the moment. Let's wait until the world is pacified."
Even the most primitive explosives were subversive to the changes in the form of war in this era. Jiang Pengji did not want to create another "Shi Zhong" who stole secrets. This kind of weapon should be used only when she had the ability to protect it to prevent it from falling into the hands of other forces.
Bai Ning nodded and said no more.
Jiang Pengji said, "Maybe I should talk to Yuexia about this. She will most likely be very interested."
Bai Ning laughed. "That's true. Yuexia's favorite thing to do is to make the impossible possible. She's too competitive."
As a father, how could Bai Ning not know that his daughter, Bai Yuexia, had suffered discrimination and verbal abuse because of the birthmark on her face?
When she had just reached adulthood, there were a few Icemen who came to propose marriage. However, the ones who proposed were all local hooligans and scoundrels. One of them was even an old widower who was over seventy years old. Although he was old, his heart was not old. Bai Ning was furious, and Bai Yuexia was so angry that she chased Iceman out.
Some Icemen ran away with their tails between their legs, and some Icemen had a hot and sharp temper. They directly said that Bai Yuexia was ugly, and marrying a rascal with such a condition would be too much. After this village, even if she wanted to marry in the future, she wouldn't be able to get married in this lifetime.
[Father, if my future husband isn't a hero that I like, I'd rather comb my hair and be a widow for the rest of my life than marry!]
His daughter had such a fiery temper. As a father, what else could Bai Ning do other than protect her?
Jiang Pengji smiled and said, "If one day, I can conquer the world and establish a country, Yuexia's achievements will definitely be above yours."
Bai Ning was elated when he heard that.
What did this mean?
It meant that the lord didn't mind Bai Yuexia's crime of not guarding well at all. Not only did she not intend to punish her, but she also wanted to put her in an important position.
He was overjoyed in his heart, but he put on a serious expression on his face.
"Yuexia is just a girl in the boudoir. How would I dare to think so much …"
As soon as he said that, Bai Ning couldn't help but slap himself in his heart.
How could he say that? Didn't he see that his lord was also a woman?
"I'm also a woman, but I also dare to think about the whole world." Jiang Pengji didn't blame him for being the stupidest. She smiled and said, "The words' male 'and' female 'are just to distinguish between genders. It doesn't represent an individual's ability. Belittling and belittling someone because of their gender, you're not qualified as a father. "
Bai Ning smiled sheepishly and echoed.
"You're right, my lord. I will pay attention in the future."
While they were talking, the troops who launched sneak attacks and harassed them had already "stirred up trouble" everywhere in the Nie camp, making them restless for the whole night.
Jiang Pengji said, "If this goes on, I don't think the possibility of Nie Liang sending his troops is high. That person is very patient."
When Bai Ning heard that the topic was back to business, he immediately said seriously, "It doesn't matter if he doesn't send his troops. We'll continue to cause trouble. If he's not afraid of the morale of the troops collapsing, then we'll continue to endure. A thousand-year tortoise, a ten-thousand-year tortoise. If he can really endure anything, I'll admire him. "
If they didn't fight and just harassed them, sooner or later, they would break down.
All the soldiers in the Nie camp were living people made of flesh and blood. They weren't dead people who didn't eat or drink.
It was fine if they didn't sleep well for one or two days, but if they were like this for several days in a row, it would only be a matter of time before they became mentally exhausted and their combat power would decline.
"Moreover, if they harass them too much, they'll know that our army is bluffing. They'll inevitably let down their guard." Bai Ning had a good grasp of this. Although he didn't have much experience in leading troops, when he was in his hometown in Nansheng, he was still the head of the local militia. He relied on various tactics to protect the land from foreign enemies. "No matter how cautious Nie Liang is and how patient he is, the soldiers under him are just fools."
Nie Liang could maintain a high level of vigilance from beginning to end, but the soldiers under him couldn't.
There were too many stories about the wolf coming. When the wolf really came, people would not believe it anymore.
Bai Ning didn't know the story of "The Wolf Is Coming," but he knew how to wear down the enemy's vigilance bit by bit.
Jiang Pengji said, "I'm just afraid that we'll repeat the same trick too many times and be seen through."
No matter how stupid the enemy was, they couldn't fall into the same trap repeatedly.
Bai Ning seriously considered this problem. He decided to attack the Nie camp the night after tomorrow.
After harassing the enemy camp for three consecutive nights, the enemy would be mentally exhausted. The fourth night attack would definitely be effective.
The next day, Jiang Pengji came over to challenge them as usual.
Nie Ying and the others were about to go crazy with anger.
Fan Chen said angrily, "What's wrong with Liu Xi? She's causing trouble in the middle of the night and causing trouble in the day. Does she have too much energy and nowhere to vent it? "
Attacking at night did not let them sleep, and challenging them in the day did not let them have a good rest.
Wei Yong said, "It's obvious that she's forcing us to fight."
Fan Chen said, "Let's fight then. Are we afraid of her?"
Although Nie Qing was still young, he knew his father's considerations and volunteered to hold the fort.
Nie Liang frowned and thought for a while, then said, "If that's the case, then let's send them away."
He didn't want to fight not only because of his health, but also because Jiang Pengji was too strange. The consecutive coincidences had shaken the morale of the army. Before finding the perfect opportunity, Nie Liang didn't want to take the risk and let Jiang Pengji take advantage of him.
