Chapter 188: Chixiao Siege Equipment
Isn't adding medicinal herbs to what you eat looking for death?
But even so, Yuyulou didn't dare to say no.
"It's okay for the girl to toss around blindly, but please don't eat it at will, so as not to have any bad conditions."
"Thanks for the reminder, I'll pay attention. At most, smell the taste first, if it doesn't work, you don't dare to eat it indiscriminately, if you think it's okay, first try to see if it's poisonous, and then try to taste it, and never eat more. After all, there is a little price to pay for exploring this science. ”
"If only the girl knew. This medicine really can't be taken indiscriminately. ”
"Understood."
Yuyulou finally prepared some medicinal herbs for Shen Zhuru that were in the camp, not much, grabbed a little of everything, sent some meat and vegetables, cleaned them and sent one over, and there were more than a dozen casseroles, which were obviously for Shen Zhuru to toss and play.
After Shen Zhuru got the medicinal materials, she sent Yuyulou away to wait outside, tossing around by herself, and letting Yueyang choose useful medicinal materials for her to heal herself.
Thanks to the fact that Yuyulou grabbed a little bit of everything, it saved a lot of trouble. It's just that after selecting some of the medicinal materials, Yueyang mixed them together and boiled them, using pork bone broth as the soup to boil the medicinal juice, so as to conceal Yuyulou's investigation.
As time passed, several casseroles were boiled with different types of herbs, and after Yueyang got a pot, she was directly allowed to drink enough to boil the soup added to other pots, disrupting the division of medicinal herbs.
Shen Zhuru waited until Yueyang had taken the medicine, and then found a reason. Loudly called Yueyang to watch the pot boil, she was going to rest.
After such a toss, she slept by herself. Yueyang watched there, and then said another impatient word, and the sand boilers in the tent were all withdrawn, allowing Yuyulou to clean up the aftermath.
Looking at more than a dozen pots of soup of different colors, Yu Yulou's face turned a little green, but he still asked the military doctor in the camp to ask about the drugging to see if he could eat it. It turns out that these drugs are mixed together, if not at all. That is the change of medicinal properties, if some really drink it, they will definitely vomit and diarrhea, and even add more herbs. It will become a soup that takes people's lives. Of course, this is a serious consequence that can only be caused by a person with a weak constitution or a woman who is pregnant.
On the whole, except for a few potable soups made from pig's trotters boiled in cooked ground and honeysuckle, which is a little bitter, the rest is not very good.
After drinking the medicine, with Yueyang's physique, he quickly survived, and the wound was re-bandaged with Jinchuang medicine, but there was no accident to regenerate.
Mu Fenghua's matter, Shen Zhuru has not mentioned it to Yueyang for the time being. But she was told not to act rashly, and to wait until she arrived in Baidu City before discussing.
Yueyang didn't say anything. Seeing Shen Zhuru talking like this, he naturally didn't say much, and he didn't ask more, just waiting for the time to leave.
In the afternoon of the next day, Shen Zhuru heard the soldiers in the battalion talking about the siege equipment in the tent, especially the cloud ladder was the most conspicuous.
In this Chixiao country, in order to fight, this ladder is all made of steel, the ladder is erected on the car, and it is pushed by human or animal power, and when it reaches the place, it is then pulled by gears to increase the height and erect to the city wall on the side of the Tianfeng Pass.
You must know that the Tianfeng Pass is a dangerous place, like a pattern of a line of sky, there is only one entrance, although the garrison is limited, but it has a posture of being a man and a man and ten thousand people.
As long as one hole is defended, no matter how many enemies there are, it will take several times and dozens of times the number of troops to attack it.
But this is relatively speaking, there are also drawbacks.
For the defenders of the city, this is a good place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is impossible to open the pass, but once it is occupied by the enemy, this pass will also eat the defender of the city, and it will be like a thousand miles of embankment, collapse in an anthill, and it will be out of control.
At first glance, I saw the behemoth ladder of Chixiao Country, and there were even deputies extending out on both sides of the ladder, and it was not a problem for the two to walk side by side.
This kind of design made Shen Zhuru see the modern style, but if it was really designed by someone in the same place as her, it would definitely not be nothing more.
Maybe it's just a coincidence.
It's a pity that she can also see such a thing, as for whether other instruments also have traces of modern ideas, Shen Zhuru doesn't know.
But if everything has traces of modernity, Shen Zhuru has the right to suspect that this person who helped Chixiao Country is probably from the same world as her.
As a result, the country of Yurui is in danger.
And once something happens to Yu Ruiguo, her friends and her lover will definitely be greatly affected, even endangering their lives.
Thinking like this, Shen Zhuru had to worry.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?"
"Yueyang, I'm a little worried. Worried that the siege equipment of this Chixiao Kingdom is too powerful, in case a battle will affect the battle situation, how can this be good? ”
"Miss, you're thinking too much. This is not going to happen. This Chixiao Kingdom and Yurui Kingdom have been fighting for hundreds of years, and they have never seen anyone have the upper hand, and maybe it will be an even ending. Yueyang replied with a smile, which could be regarded as comforting Shen Zhuru.
"You don't understand. It's not as simple as you think. In the past, it was evenly matched, and it was only when the Chixiao Kingdom did not seize the favorable opportunity that it would be like this. Now that there are internal and external troubles, the condition of Yurui Country is not very good, plus this batch of belated siege equipment, you have also seen the cloud ladder before, all of them are cast in iron, and you can see some exposed mechanisms on the side of the cloud ladder from afar. Once this ladder is erected on the city wall, and the width of two people walking side by side is no problem, do you think there is really no need to worry? Once a group of men and horses rush to the top of the wall, there will be a second, third, and innumerable, and the wall will limit the enemy at the same time, and at the same time, it will not limit itself. How long have you been fighting, and you know that you have seen too many battles? At most, it's just a little friction, don't you feel weird? Don't you think that the sudden arrival of the Great War is because these instruments have not been returned to their places for a long time? ”
Shen Zhuru's words made Yueyang smile.
yes. Since the war started so early, why is it still petty?
I'm afraid that the first battle was to paralyze the generals of the Yurui Kingdom. It's about preparing for tomorrow's big war.
Wang Haitian, Generalissimo Wang is a generalissimo who is known for his courage and bravery, how can he be like a child playing at home. Nature has a purpose.
Don't underestimate each other at all.
After the arrival of this batch of engineering equipment, the rhythm of the war was changed, and no one believed it.
"Miss, do you need a slave to find out?" Yueyang said in a deep voice.
"There's no need for that, I'm going to take a look at it so I know how dangerous this device really is."
Yueyang couldn't help but show a suspicious gaze.
Because listening to the meaning of Shen Zhuru's words, it was obvious that she had the confidence to just rely on a glance. Just know the pros and cons.
However, does the young lady know the instrument?
Yueyang was suspicious in his heart, and he didn't dare to say it. But he also secretly decided that if he really had the opportunity to take a look, he would definitely remember it and tell the person in the arrangement immediately. Let them send the message back immediately.
Of course. If she can meet Gu Sufeng's people, the efficiency of them to pass the news back to Tianfeng Pass will definitely be much higher than her.
Yueyang followed behind Shen Zhuru and went to find Yanling.
"Why are you here?" Yan Ling couldn't help but smile when he saw Shen Zhuru, quite a little surprised.
"I'm going to Baidu City tomorrow, I want to see His Highness more before leaving, so that when I think about His Highness in the future, I can also remember it vividly, so that I won't wait for a long time and only have a vague memory left." Shen Zhuru said and looked at Yanling with a look of grievance. has the posture of a resentful woman.
"Hehe, Ru'er is she angry with me? It just so happens that I am in a hurry to get the matter at hand done. It doesn't matter if you do the rest later, just let me accompany you well, lest Ru'er you really forget me. ”
"Your Highness knows how to bully people." Shen Zhuru said coquettishly, with a non-compliant expression.
"How did I bully you? It's too late for me to hurt you. Yan Ling was in a good mood, and took Shen Zhuru's little hand to his lips and kissed the back of his hand.
"If you love me, then, then, then take me to see the ladder that looks so high from afar. Well? It's a ladder, right? ”
"Hehe, that's a ladder for siege, because it's cast of fine iron, so it's called the Iron Cloud Ladder. In addition to these, there are a lot of powerful big guys, I just want to go and inspect it, why don't you take a look with me? Yan Ling explained with a smile and opened his mouth to invite.
"Is it okay for me to go? After all, it is a siege weapon, and if something bad leaks out because of my arrival, then I will not become a sinner, and even an enemy country. Forget it, I'm not going. Shen Zhuru shook his head and refused, but that inadvertent look of reluctance flashed in his eyes and was caught in Yanling's eyes.
"It's fine. What if those big guys look at it other than the instrument masters who designed them? I don't know the principle, it's just a fox wearing a layer of tiger skin, the fox is fake and the tiger is mighty, and I can't get the essence at all. Not to mention, what do you know as a woman? Let me see, whoever dares to chew the root of the tongue, I will definitely punish him severely. Yan Ling was domineering, his eyes seemed to glance at Yuyulou intentionally and unintentionally, and soon focused on Shen Zhuru's body.
"Then I'll just take a look, just curious about what kind of powerful guys are there. After all, you can't usually see such a huge thing, which is considered a long insight, and it will be a shame to lose face if someone doesn't know anything about it. ”
"My Ru'er is so outstanding, how can she lose my face, it's almost the same to give me a face." Yan Ling said and took Shen Zhuru's little hand, and walked out with the person, and the direction of progress was the direction where the instrument was.
Out of the tent of the Chinese military camp, the place where Shen Zhuru and Yanling went was the west camp in the west of the five camps in the east, west, south, north and middle.
Now the place where the West Camp is heavily guarded is not inferior to the big tent of the Middle Camp, just because of the arrival of this batch of equipment, it is very strict.
Yan Ling's arrival no one stopped him from advancing, but Shen Zhuru and Yueyang were stopped at the door after strictly executing the order.
"I'm sorry, the generalissimo explained, idlers are not allowed to enter, please stay outside." The captain of the gate was a young man, and at first glance he looked like a man who followed the rules and strictly followed orders.
"This is the future imperial concubine of His Royal Highness, and you dare to stop it?" Yan Ling was annoyed, because the behavior of the goalkeeper was obviously a provocation to him.
"Back to Your Highness, it's just that the future is not the real imperial concubine, unless the generalissimo makes an edict, you can only offend."
"What's your name?" Yan Ling only felt very faceless, but at the same time, he couldn't blame other people's official affairs, and he was selfless.
After all, only such a person will not be moved by foreign objects and strictly protect the secret equipment used in the siege.
It's a love-hate guy.
"Back to His Royal Highness, his subordinate is named Chen Mo."
"What a Chen Mo, Your Royal Highness appreciates your due diligence, but he is also very faceless. However, this fate was also proposed by His Royal Highness, and the Generalissimo ordered it to be executed, so naturally it was not good to break the rules. Do you know this thing? Yan Ling said and took out something from his arms, and immediately made the people around him kneel.
"Half a tiger talisman is worth a promise from the generalissimo?"
"The subordinates don't dare. However, his subordinates still implore His Highness to bring fewer people in if they can, after all, the situation here is special, and it is never allowed to blend in with the enemy country to do detailed work, or to leak the content of those who are open-mouthed. The subordinates suggested that if His Royal Highness was just to take the imperial concubine to see it, please let this maid wait outside. Chen Mo knelt on the ground and dared to boldly give advice to the prince of Yanling, which was not bold.
Yan Ling pondered it carefully, but he also felt that it was not a difficult matter, but he also nodded, not only leaving Yueyang behind, but even Yuyulou asked him to stay and wait outside with Yueyang.
Yuyulou naturally didn't matter, but Yueyang was quite anxious in her heart.
How can she record if she is not allowed in, let alone let the two be alone, Yueyang is also anxious, for fear that something will go wrong.
But once she opens her mouth to ask, it will definitely arouse suspicion, even if it is just a little, maybe one day it will become a prairie fire, out of control.
In desperation, I could only endure it.
After entering the West Camp, Shen Zhuru obviously felt a different atmosphere from the Middle Camp.
If it is said that the middle camp is heavily guarded, but it is always vigilant against any unfavorable things, after all, it is to protect important people, and it is not easy to relax.
And the West Camp is heavily guarded, but for the sake of secrecy, even so, the equipment master here is still in full swing in the assembly and debugging, professional behavior is not to be despised, the whole camp is in full swing, and even the arrival of the prince no one cares about a few more glances, just as an ordinary general who comes to walk around, even if this so-called ordinary general can actually bring a veiled woman in, he doesn't have the heart to feel strange, and continue to do his own thing.
Shen Zhuru has seen the siege equipment here one by one, the iron cloud ladder is a relatively advanced design, and in addition, there is a kind of shelf that arouses Shen Zhuru's curiosity. (To be continued......)
