Chapter 242: What is the purpose?
"Xie Yangui, you must remember to write to me!"
Outside the city gate of the southern border of Qiannan, the county lord of Anyang reluctantly took Xie Yangui's hand and told him several times.
"Okay." Xie Yangui smiled and nodded, and raised his hand to tuck her hair between her sideburns.
The things were handed over to Anyang, and Xie Yangui believed that she could help keep them, and even if necessary, she would take them out and use them directly.
"And I'm leaving?" Although he promised Xie Yangui to return, Anyang couldn't let it go.
She wanted to say a few more words, but saw Xie Yangui put his hand on her shoulder, turned her around, and pushed her back to the side of the carriage.
"Alright, alright, I'll go by myself!" An Yang made a jack of money, turned his head and glared at her with disgust, "I have a good-looking little girl at home waiting for you to come and drink!"
After speaking, without looking at Xie Yangui's expression, she turned around and stepped on the footstool and quickly entered the carriage.
"Let's go!" A voice with a thick nasal voice came from the carriage, and An Yang sat in the carriage, his eyes a little red.
Xie Yangui stood outside the city, watching the carriage go farther and farther, and she let out a long breath, as if she wanted to vomit out the sadness of parting.
It wasn't until she could no longer see Anyang's carriage that she turned around and headed back towards the city.
A young general hurriedly came, "General Qiyu, General Rong Di is calling for battle outside the city!"
"Again?" Xie Yangui raised her eyebrows, she knew that the enemy would definitely come again, but she didn't expect it to come so quickly.
She did not delay, but mounted her horse and ran towards another gate.
Outside the city, Rong Di and the soldiers of the Burmese country were shouting and scolding, and it was a common thing in front of the two armies.
Xie Yangui stood behind the wall and looked towards the city, there were not many people coming, which made her feel a little strange in her heart.
The last time Rong Di came to call for battle, they suffered a loss under her hands, and last night they wanted to attack at night, and they suffered again.
Even if it's not uncommon to make a comeback, why are these people here?
Looking away from the city, Xie Yangui looked into the distance, no different from before.
As for whether there is still an ambush outside the city, it is still unknown.
At this moment, the topographical map outside the city appeared in Xie Yangui's mind, and she guessed what the arrangement would be if the enemy had an ambush.
But no matter what she thought, she felt that such an arrangement was not reasonable.
Even if it were the former Shen family, they would not bite this hook, instead of ambushing, they might as well come over and call for a battle.
If this is so unreasonable, why should the enemy do this?
Xie Yangui frowned tightly.
"General, are we going to war?" Shen Huai also got the news and came to the city wall to ask.
"What does General Shen think of the current situation?" Looking at Shen Huaiyi, Xie Yangui asked rhetorically.
Shen Huai also clasped his fists and saluted, looked at the city again, and then looked into the distance, and then looked around.
"General Hui, the last general feels that the current situation is a little strange." He gave up all his thoughts, which coincided with Xie Yangui's.
"I think so too, so let's not rush to send troops, let's see what their purpose is?" After listening to Shen Huaiyi, Xie Yangui nodded.
After the discussion was completed, the two came down from the city wall together, and Xie Yangui called the deputy general on duty and whispered a few words.
She did not leave there, but sent to her dwelling and fetched her spear.
Although she has to be on guard against the situation outside the city at the moment, she is also idle in the city, and some soldiers have wanted to learn a few tricks from her before, so she just took this opportunity.
When the soldiers heard that they could learn from Xie Yangui, they immediately geared up and became excited.
It has invisibly boosted morale.
There was shouting and scolding outside the city, and there was a discussion inside the city, but it was lively.
Yushu was alone in the room, studying the saltpeter she brought back, she kept trying according to the ratio in the ancient books, and made several samples one after another.
As for whether there is any of these that can achieve the effect, we will have to test it to know
Dawn.
Hearing that his own girl was discussing with the soldiers at the city gate, Yushu carefully packed the samples and came to Xie Yangui.
When she arrived, she saw Xie Yangui picking out three young generals with a spear, and she sat down and immediately held a spear, the spear pointed to the ground, with a smile on her face that was difficult to see in Kyoto.
"Girl!" Yushu said hello, Xie Yangui raised her eyes and looked over, she jumped off the horse with a gun, and handed the spear to the guards on the side.
"How?" After coming to Yushu's side, Xie Yangui asked.
"I made a few samples, but I don't know the effect," Yushu replied as he thought of a solution, "Maybe the girl could tie these samples to the arrows and shoot them out immediately after they are lit."
Xie Yangui has a heavy bow in his hand, as well as special arrows, which will be more effective than ordinary arrows, and will be much faster than throwing them directly.
"But...... Since it's still a sample, I don't know what's going to happen next."
The enemies outside the border pass are good candidates for testing, but Yushu cannot guarantee whether the samples will achieve the effect as they think.
If they are dumb and fall and are picked up by the enemy, and they figure out something from it, it may be against them.
Yushu told Xie Yangui all his thoughts for her to choose.
"We can go to the other side of the wall and try it, and then improve it according to the situation."
After listening to Yushu, Xie Yangui did not delay, and ordered someone to fetch a heavy bow and go towards another city gate.
Shen Huai was also ordered to stay in case of emergency.
There was a frightening feather, and the master and servant soon arrived and went up the city wall together.
Xie Yangui selected the most suitable arrows, tied the samples one by one, and then ordered Yushu to light the fire.
In an instant, she shot the arrow.
Some of the arrows tied to the samples landed on the ground outside the city without any reaction, while others exploded in mid-air.
Yushu stood on the city wall and recorded the results of each sample so that she could continue to improve.
"How?" Xie Yangui also recorded all this in her mind, and she turned her head to ask Yu Shu.
"Girl, let's go down and have a look." Yushu had a number in her heart, but she wanted to see the one that fell outside the city.
Xie Yangui agreed, and went out of the city with her, and the master and servant deliberately stayed away to observe the dumb one.
Picking up a stone from the ground, Xie Yangui took aim and threw it out, just hit it hard, still no movement, she looked at Yushu again.
"According to the results just now, the fifth sample works best, the one marked in red, if it can be improved to make it fall lower, it will work again......
In order to distinguish them, Yushu marked each sample, and she already had a way to improve it in her heart, "Girl, give me time for a stick of incense."
"Okay, I'll wait for you here, you and Shocking Feather go and come back quickly." Xie Yangui agreed.
The master and servant returned to the city together, Xie Yangui stayed here to check the defense, greeted Yushu and returned to the residence.
