At this time, it was useless to let Han call outside, because no one paid attention to him at all. Two guards with knives crushed it. No matter how it moves, it is difficult to break free.

In the pavilion surrounded by silk recruitment, He Luo's screams were already heard, but at this moment, no matter how she struggled, she couldn't get rid of Song Gongyan's clutches.

After a while, the wheezing of the two came from the pavilion. Han Ping, who was being pressed by death outside, was already in tears, he knelt and roared, constantly roaring, but just like the bird in the cage, no matter how much he struggled, no one would let him go, the guards wouldn't, Song Gongyan wouldn't. No one felt sad about what happened to the two, and even the two maids who were driven out by Song Gongyan just now kept scolding He Luo in their mouths.

Maybe that's what human nature is.

……

Outside the city, the Chu army was still attacking the city at any cost, and the ladders were raised high, like long feet on a huge city.

"It's been three hours, and there hasn't been much progress, and Shangqiu's garrison is really strong enough-" On the high platform, Jin Shangzhuan said helplessly to Chaoyang.

"This Song Gong has cultivated the city profoundly, easy to defend and difficult to attack, there are not many soldiers in the city, don't you see, the city is full of ordinary people. It's just that there are more boulders and rolling logs used to defend the city, and everyone can throw them down. ”

Looking at the soldiers who fell from the ladder like ants falling from the trunk of a tree, Jin Shang shook his head again and sighed: "If it goes on like this, I don't know how many casualties there will be—"

"That's no way, casualties are always inevitable." Chaoyang looked very open: "Is there any news about the 30,000 soldiers guarding the border of Qi State?" ”

"I've sent someone to get in touch, but there's still no news, but I think about it, that person should also be in the army of 30,000, and he should be able to return tonight-"

A touch of blood had already stained the entire city wall red, and under the bright sun, the countless stumps and flesh hanging on the head of the city and scattered at the base of the city wall exuded a disgusting and disgusting aura.

But even so, the war in the city is tight, but Song Gongyan in the city is a beauty hugging him, enjoying himself safely.

As for his order to offer a bounty, it didn't do much at all. As far as the soldiers defending the city are concerned, the Chu army outside the city seems to be endless, and there will be another wave after killing one wave. There is no hope of life in their eyes.

But on the pole erected at the gate of the city, the bloody corpses of the six deserters hung made these guards of the city have no courage to escape, and Song Gongyan's thousand guards are the grim reaper guarding the city.

In comparison, entering the city and retreating is definitely a death, fighting in the city to resist the attack of the Chu army, maybe you can really sit on the mansion, and the beauty is in your arms. Although the hope is pitiful for the small.

……

On the bank of the river, Ji Xue looked at the slowly rotating wooden tools, and her eyes radiated a fine light: "What did the king make?" How to use it? ”

In the water, a small simple wooden waterwheel was slowly rotating with the small current.

Wu Ming, who had just finished doing this, sat directly on the ground, stretched out his hand and wiped the sweat on his forehead casually, he said with a smile: "This thing is called a waterwheel." He's in a good position! In short, I can't say it completely for a while. To put it simply, he is like a moving wheel that can be used to fetch water. If you build on a large river, you can take out the water yourself, and if you add a few other things, you can automatically fill the water into the canal, and there are many benefits. ”

"Can water be poured into the canal automatically? Doesn't that mean that the fields can be irrigated automatically, and no more manpower is required? Ji Xue blinked with a pair of big eyes.

"You can say that, but only near the river. The rest of the place is unusable—"

At present, the waterwheel is generally ready, and what is missing is the aqueduct.

After a while, after Wu Ming finished installing the aqueduct, the water flowed out automatically along the aqueduct, and Ji Xue was even more surprised.

"This thing is so magical, even in the ghost valley, there is not necessarily the existence of this thing."

"Haha, Ghost Valley." Wu Ming suddenly smiled: "The things of the Ghost Valley, how can they be compared to what I do-"

Of course, the people who came out of Guigu are really good, and the men are all people with great wisdom and talent. Female, Ji Xue's appearance is definitely not without the slightest exaggeration.

As the sun sets, the night slowly rises. A few stars twinkled and dotted the sky.

A fast horse from far and near in the sky, and after a while, it appeared in front of Wu Ming's eyes.

The soldiers on the horse turned over and dismounted, trotted in front of Wu Ming and saluted: "Your Excellency Qi, I caught the three scouts of the Chu army at noon today, it seems that it is because the 30,000 soldiers of Qi have lost contact with the army for too long, and the scouts sent by the army besieging Shangqiu. ”

Hearing this, Wu Ming exhaled lightly: "Have you asked them about their specific purpose?" ”

"The three of them didn't say anything, they just said that they were carrying out military orders to investigate." After the soldier clenched his fists back, he lowered his voice again, leaned forward and asked carefully, "Do you want to be punished again and interrogated?" ”

"No need-" Looking up at the fill-in-the-blank in the northeast, Wu Ming sighed softly: "Send them directly to the King of Qi, and if there are those who are caught in the future, they will also be sent directly to the King of Qi." ”

For King Qi? The order was not well understood by the soldier, but in the end he hesitated and laughed, "Whew-"

Without saying anything more, he turned and left.

Ji Xue, who was on Wu Ming's side, was also puzzled, and was about to say something, but heard Wu Ming say to himself thoughtfully: "This matter should be over——"

Then, Wu Ming turned to look at Ji Xue and said, "But there is news of Zhang Zi-"

Zhang Zi is Zhang Yi in Yue Kingdom-

"The news came during the meal just now, and the subordinates almost forgot-" As he spoke, he took out a piece of cloth in his arms: "The king of Yue has already waved his army along the river to the west, and the security defenders in various parts of the Chu State dare not fight at all." The army is on the rampage. The speed of the march should be faster than the speed of the Chu people to deliver the news, but I am afraid that as soon as the King of Chu gets the news, the army of the King of Yue will already be on the edge of Yingdu——"

Yingdu was originally the capital along the Yangtze River. During the Warring States period, the countries did not have real divisions such as districts and counties, and there were no standing garrisons in each place.

A country's standing army is as high as 60,000 or 70,000. Once the war starts, it will be temporary. At present, the territory of Chu is empty, and the king of Yue is even more anxious for quick success, and sends a full 120,000 troops to divide the water and land armies along the river to the west.

Because there was no notice in advance, the attention of the Chu State was in the Song Land again. Therefore, this time the Yue Kingdom sent troops, which was definitely a surprise for the King of Chu.

Looking at the content of the cloth, the corners of Wu Ming's mouth outlined a faint smile, this time it should be enough for the King of Chu to drink a pot.
