Chapter 115: Bad News in the City
Twisting it up, observing, and hesitating for a moment, Zheng Quqi took a deep breath before making up his mind.
It took a small half of her life to finally open the brocade box, whether this thing is the so-called "holy medicine" or not, she has no choice now.
It's poison, it's medicine, she has to be a doctor.
The worst outcome is not to wait for death as now.
The old ginseng has been eaten by her, and during this period, she relied on this mouthful of "fairy energy" to hang her life, and the military doctor gave her an injection to forcibly induce body functions, paralyze the pain, and is about to usher in the stage of backlash.
At that time, I was afraid that she would not be able to make even a simple move, so she had to hurry.
Zheng Quqi closed his eyes, regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one, swallowed the contents of the box in one gulp...... It's soft, creamy, bitter and sour, and it's not delicious, but it's medicine, and it doesn't matter if it's good or not.
After swallowing it in her stomach, her whole body stiffened nervously, and she waited for a while, but her body did not feel anything.
There is neither intestinal decay after poisoning, nor miraculous medicine after taking it.
The pain is still painful, and the weakness of the hands and feet has not subsided......
Is this not the "holy medicine" she got her hands on at all, or did its effect not work as fast as she thought?
Maybe it's because she's overtired, her reaction at this time is very weak, and her emotions are also very light, and she really can't set off her intense emotions.
Forget it, everything that needs to be done has been done, and everything left to fate.
She curled up in a ball, exhausted, and lay down again.
After waking up after a night's sleep, Zheng Quqi obviously felt better, and then he was hungry for a long time.
In the previous two days, she used ginseng to replenish her vitality, and her stomach was empty, but she didn't feel hungry at all, and even felt sick to her stomach when she thought of eating.
But now, she felt hungry, and she could gnaw two pieces of bark for days.
I don't know who I heard from it, people are sick, it's good to know hunger and thirst, if you don't want to eat, it's over.
She felt like she was doing it again, and life seemed to have hope again.
A piece of moldy bacon was turned out of the haystack, and the military doctor prepared something to eat in the thatched hut, but most of it was moldy and rotten, but the bacon was washed and edible.
When she went to the stream to wash the meat, she found some young mushrooms and wild vegetables that had just emerged, picked them and brought them back, and stewed them in a broken jar.
Although there is no salt, the bacon itself is salted with heavy salt, when the fire is fried, the oil and water of the bacon are stimulated, and a variety of wild vegetables and shiitake mushrooms are added, a rich and fragrant domineering taste wafts out, and the mouth is hungry.
This jar was cooked a little too much, and when Zheng Quqi was seven minutes full, he stopped.
This pot of meat is fragrant, but for her now, she feels too tired of eating a few more bites, and her stomach has not eaten seriously for two days, so she is a little uncomfortable.
Cover the rest and eat it when she's hungry.
Because she didn't have to wash the pots and dishes, when she was full, she sat on the haystack with her knees crossed, and looked out quietly through the window, her mind was empty, and she didn't think about anything, and before she knew it, she fell into a deep sleep again.
When she opened her eyes again, it was not early, and she was a little surprised, she slept for nearly five hours.
And when she woke up this time, she felt more energetic, and even the feeling of sickness that lingered in her bones was much reduced.
At this time, Zheng Quqi curled the corners of her mouth happily, she could already be sure that what she had eaten before was definitely the "holy medicine", and the big stone that had been hanging in her heart finally landed.
Once a person is relieved of the psychological burden, the appetite will naturally come, and she will eat a meal in the morning and be full, but after a noon and afternoon digestion, she now feels hungry again.
She blew the fire and heated the bacon soup left over from the morning, and after eating it to her heart's content, she sweated with the heat on her body, and she felt a slight swelling in her abdomen, so she planned to get up and go outside to eliminate her food, and rest and cool down by the way.
Her strength had recovered somewhat, she no longer staggered when she walked, and she needed a wooden stick to support her balance, she was not in a hurry, and her steps were like walking to eat, and she paced slowly to the edge of the cliff.
Standing on a high place, she naturally looked at the side of the city tower on the border of the giant deer country.
The sunset is like blood.
I saw that in the sky above the square city, the firelight was unscrupulously jumping with the wind, as if it was about to devour everything, and the dazzling and bright red color was just in a line with the glow of the sky, and the beacon fire was endless, and the dust covered the sky.
Zheng Quqi's expression was stunned.
The first city in the country of giant deer...... Is this going to be captured?!
Isn't the Giant Deer Country known as the Giant Weapon Country? The weapons and city defense machinery of its soldiers are all famous in the Seven Kingdoms, how could they be easily attacked in such a short period of time?
Immediately, she frowned again, the border war has evolved into such a serious situation, I am afraid that there will be heavy casualties, and the military doctor can really sneak out of the camp to find her?
The lack of food and clothing on this mountain is mainly that the safety factor is not high, and there are often footprints of large animals wandering around, and she is more worried that this place is not far from the camp, if there is an army to search the vicinity, it will be difficult for her to hide.
So stay, definitely not for long.
But the question now is, will she continue to wait for the medic or leave on her own first?
After thinking about it for a long time, she finally decided to stay for two more days, and wait for her injuries to recover better, if the military doctor hadn't come yet, she was afraid that things would change, so she wouldn't wait and leave alone.
——
Zheng Quqi's previous doubts about the weakening of the city defense of the Julu Country were also the deep doubts and puzzles generated when the Julu Army fought against the soldiers and horses of the Ye Army!
Ye Guo was once ridiculed by hundreds of craftsmen, and there were no craftsmen in the country.
But with the level of Ye Guo's armament, he could actually break through the gates of their Wind Valley Sand City in such a short period of time?!
It's a fraud!
The various siege equipment they use today, such as ladders, siege towers, and weapons equipped with the army, are all the latest and most destructive, and even they have never seen them before, this must not be the level that their craftsmen of the Ye Kingdom can do.
They can't figure it out, they can't even scratch their heads, what the hell is going on.
Only Mo Ye and Yang Gu know the reason for this.
That's right, the craftsmen of Ye Kingdom don't have this level, but this Yu Wensheng is a robber, he simply stole the equipment that Nan Chen and Xi Zeguo ordered at the Mo family, and then used it to start against their Julu Country.
You say it's infuriating?
I thought that the ship of heavy-duty new machinery and gold-cutting iron weapons were all carefully developed by the Mo family to deal with Ye Guo, but now it is good, Ye Guo and Yu Wensheng are unscathed, and in the end, it is their Julu Kingdom that suffers deeply.
You just say, this is not angry, this is not sad and angry!
Anyway, he Yang Gu was about to explode, and he even cursed viciously in his heart.
I don't know which damn craftsman unlocked the Jiulong box for Yu Wensheng, so that he hijacked the ship carrying the lethal equipment of Nan Chen and Xi Zeguo in one fell swoop.
If he knew, without the Mo family's opponents, he Yang Gu would be the first to chase down to the Heavenly Cliff Cape, and he would never let him go!
At the same time, he also angered Nan Chen Guo and Xi Ze Guo by the way, they don't know how powerful the weapons they created in cooperation with the Mo family are, right?
They don't know how to keep their belongings, and now that they've lost them, don't they know what serious the consequences will become?
"General, the city gate is about to run out of support!"
The sweat on the soldier's face was confused with the black smoke, and people couldn't see their facial features clearly, only the hoarse wheezing voice showed the panic and despair in his heart.
"What about Moye? Didn't he lead his troops around the rear to relieve us of the pressure on the city gates? What about people? ”
"My subordinates don't know."
Yang Gu desperately tried to defend the city gate on the city wall, but the impact from below made his heart clench, and his face was the color of pig's liver.
He poked his head down, only to see the eight-wheeled, five-story siege tower below slamming into the city gate, the destructive force of the landslide and the crack, but also caused the city wall to break, the city gate was almost crowded with soldiers trying to push their backs against their shoulders, but they were getting more and more exhausted.
"Quick, pour the oil down, and at the same time tell the archers to prepare to set fire, never tell them to climb up!"
For a while, the arrows rained down, and the car below used its height to shoot a long crossbow directly into the city from the car, fighting with the giant deer soldiers on the female wall, and at the same time approaching the city wall at a slow speed, destroying the female wall, just to directly attack the defenders on the city wall.
"No, the oil can't be poured on the car, they all avoided it, and they also took the tarpaulin back to the city wall, if they continue to set fire, they will burn their bodies!"
"Damn Yu Wensheng, he turned all the hole cards out at once, just to deal with our small city, damn, is he sick in the brain!" Yang Gu scolded indiscriminately.
After the subordinates narrowly avoided an arrow, they saw that in addition to being equipped with various long weapons, the car below was also loaded with heavy weapons such as crossbows and stone cannons, and was shocked: "General, general, I can't hold it, I really can't hold it, let's run away." ”
As soon as Yang Gu heard this, he was immediately furious, and slapped him to the ground.
"Wang Ba Lamb, if Lao Tzu escapes, what will happen to the people in this city?!"
"General, if we don't escape, we will die here in vain, Wind Valley Sand City will fall sooner or later, and we won't be able to defend it at all...... Otherwise, let's go find Yu Wensheng's wife, as long as she is tied up, Yu Wensheng will definitely not attack the city again! ”
Yang Gu's eyes almost fell out, he couldn't breathe, gritted his teeth and said, "Is it because Lao Tzu doesn't want to?" We couldn't find her at all! Hell knows where that woman is! She didn't know how to take care of her man who was biting like a mad dog! ”
"General, general, Sima led the troops to kill from the rear!"
The subordinate shouted in surprise, but soon, the joy on his face disappeared little by little, his pupils dilated, and his face turned pale.
The three armies of Julu fought the Ye army outside the city, but they were outnumbered by their ferocity and ferocity.
In the past, the Julu Kingdom relied on its strong equipment, hard swords, and various equipment in the rear, and sometimes lost less and won more against the Shang Ye Kingdom, but now they were shocked to find that once everyone was under the same conditions, the Julu Army was far inferior to the Ye Army.
Wanhu on the left wing of the Julu Army served as the vanguard, leading the elite to rush into the Ye army's formation, while Mo Ye pressed on the main force, and at the same time, the Chinese army quietly detoured to the Ye army's flank and launched a surprise attack.
But all the conspiracies and tricks of the surprise attack, far less reliable than the strength of the army, in addition to the initial hurry, the soldiers and horses led by Wei Yao and Wang Zebang immediately counterattacked, the two of them rarely appeared on the same battlefield, but once the two swords were combined, the power was naturally extraordinary.
The giant deer was defeated like a mountain, and the entire city gate was filled with blood, and the bloody qi that was so thick that it was closed was suspended in the air.
The defeat of the army and the withdrawal of the city were the doomed results of this battle.
Mo Ye faced such a fiasco, the bloody rust in his throat overflowed his mouth, he was dragged by the remnants of the soldiers, covered and fled, but he was unwilling to go, and finally was stunned by Wanhu's palm, and then retreated from the battlefield.
When Yu Wensheng broke the city, the war was still extremely tragic.
When the city was broken, the victory and defeat of the two armies were divided, but there were still stubborn enemy troops fighting hard, and the smoke was billowing from this magnificent city, and this magnificent city was covered in a gray cloud, and everything that had been sheltered under it was in the collapse of the city gate, indicating that the destruction of the end was coming.
After the war tore through the city gate, it was dilapidated, and the corpses were all over the field, in the vast and cold night, Yu Wensheng wore a red armor cloak and climbed on the tower of the Sand City in the Wind Valley.
He looked at this city shrouded in darkness from afar, but he could not find the person who resented him and hated him in his dreams.
He raised his steps and approached Yang Gu, who was kneeling on the ground with his hands cut off his back: "What about her?" ”
Yang Gu was slashed in the shoulder, and the blood soaked on the ground, dragging out a long blood mark.
His helmet had already fallen off, and a messy hair was draped over his face: "Yu Wensheng, your wife is not in our hands at all!" ”
"Ben Shuai saw Mo Ye take people away with his own eyes, and now you tell me that the people are not there?" The corners of Yu Wensheng's mouth were smiling, and his eyes were scarlet, as if he was very puzzled by the current situation.
"She was there, but then she was gone."
Yu Wensheng laughed and said, "If Moye intends to hide my wife, then Ben Shuai can only take some inhuman means...... For example, slaughter the entire city and use blood to awaken Mo Ye's irrational head. ”
"You can't do that! Yu Wensheng, Mo Ye didn't hide her! As long as she is still in our hands, even if it is a forced way, I will ask Mo Ye to hand her over! Yang Gu said urgently.
However, Yu Wensheng turned a deaf ear to it, he raised his head, and his jawline wearing a ghost face was white and almost transparent: "Three days, I will release a message to go out, let him bring people over in three days, and before sunset on the third day, if Moye does not return my wife to me, I will continue to march towards the Giant Deer Country, looking for people city after city, until she appears in front of me!" ”
"You're crazy! Don't you know what the consequences will be? Are you really ready for an all-out war with the Giant Deer Kingdom?! ”
When Yu Wensheng heard this, his voice became a little softer, but he was so cold: "The consequences? Ben Shuai can naturally afford it, but what about you? Can you afford it? ”
Yang Gu only felt a bang.
- No, they can't afford it!
