Chapter 157: The granary catches fire
"In a word, that narrow victory was also because of the right time, place and people, this time, there was nothing, only loss."
"Well, what to do, we're all going to die here. I originally learned the news, and I thought about sending you out of the north as soon as possible, but then I thought, I'm dead, you have to die too, it's the same if you don't leave. She let out a long sigh and muttered to herself.
"Manipulate weapons and destroy us in the city? If that's all they can do, I have a solution. ”
Hearing that he had a way, Ye Shuhua came to the spirit, "What way?" ”
Yin Zixun said mysteriously: "I can't say it now, I have to confirm whether they only have the ability to control weapons." ”
Ye Shuhua didn't know very well, those people said that they were famous, and after the war, she knew that in addition to them, other countries had their powerful reputation.
It's mysterious, I don't know where they came from, how those skills that are easy to humans are cultivated, and what more amazing skills there are, no one knows.
She shook her head, "I don't know, but in the first life, they just used this, because they had a shield, they resisted a round of attacks, and then they led their troops to attack it." ”
"After that, they didn't use any other skills." Just controlling the wind, controlling weapons is already incredible.
Ye Shuhua couldn't think of any other abnormal skills.
She pondered for a moment and came to the conclusion, "They're useless, they probably don't." ”
Yin Zixun lowered his eyes and whispered: "If this is the case, then you can start preparing, I need to know the exact time of their attack." ”
"Exact time...... Ye Shuhua muttered.
Bamboo Shadow is injured and can't be explored again, and with that group of strange people there, it is impossible to enter the other party's camp again.
She was pondering when she suddenly asked Vice Admiral Xu to see her.
He strode forward, with an anxious face, and said in a rough voice: "County Lord! The last general will get the news that in three days, the northern kingdom will launch an attack! ”
After hearing this, her eyes widened, she raised her forehead, and looked directly at Yin Zixun.
I saw Yin Zixun twisting his eyebrows as if thinking about something, and nodded after a while.
"It should be in time."
Ye Shuhua pursed her lips and lowered her eyes, but she couldn't help but be very curious and puzzled.
"What the hell is that?"
Yin Zixun hooked his lips and smiled mysteriously, "You'll know when you get there." ”
In the next three days, Vice General Ye Shuhua ordered Vice General Ning and Vice General Xu to go to the surrounding counties to buy and collect steel plates, no matter how big or small, as long as they were hard enough.
Xue Cheng and Yu Jingtian took turns on duty.
The night before it was attacked.
There are not many steel plates collected, and the things prepared by Yin Zixun have not yet arrived.
"What exactly do you have in place to deal with their weapons? Also, can you get there tonight? ”
The camp's torches were set up on iron frames and burned crackling.
The bright yellow shimmer illuminated Ye Shuhua's side face flickering brightly and darkly.
She and Yin Zixun walked side by side in the camp.
There were also soldiers patrolling back and forth, and the sound of neat footsteps passed by.
Yin Zixun turned her head and saw her eyes reflected in the firelight, like blooming fireworks, dazzling.
"Don't worry, you will definitely be able to arrive early tomorrow morning, and when the time comes, you will definitely be able to break this game."
Hearing this, Ye Shuhua's worried heart was temporarily comforted.
She nodded slightly, didn't speak, only prayed secretly in her heart, I hope so.
It's not that she's afraid of death, it's just that although Fang Xu is ruined, he is still alive, and besides, the prince and queen, she hasn't pulled them down yet.
Her revenge is not yet fully avenged.
"It is rumored that the lord of Huaguo is smart and wise, and he has a good plan, so he invited himself to come to this northern border to solve the worries of the northern border. I thought it was so smart, it turned out that there was a think tank behind it. ”
An extremely ghostly voice burst through the air.
Ye Shuhua was vigilant after hearing this, and immediately looked around.
A dark shadow swept past her in a gust of wind, and finally landed firmly on the tent not far in front of her.
The night sky was as black as ink, and the man stood there, a black robe rattled by the night wind.
A graceful figure was faintly visible under the black robe, and she was hidden in the dark, wearing a mask, unable to see her appearance clearly.
The flaming red lips were particularly dazzling.
Ye Shuhua stared at a pair of eyes, looking at the person in front of her, she recognized the mask!
"Ghost General!"
The man was obviously surprised, and his red lips opened slightly, "The county lord actually knows me, which makes me very honored." For this sake, tomorrow, I will let my people give you a good time. ”
Ye Shuhua sneered, there was an inexplicable feeling of danger in her heart, and this feeling was very familiar.
If memory serves, it's exactly the same feeling it was on July 15.
How can it be exactly the same? Could it be that she was there that night?
Ye Shuhua thought of the arrow that night again, it was far away, but it was shot so powerfully.
She couldn't help but secretly leave doubts in her heart.
"Whether the ghost general can be killed or not, I'm afraid we will find out tomorrow." Without waiting for her to speak, Yin Zixun spoke.
The voice was calm and clear, and the expression was indifferent and calm.
The ghost general's pupils glanced slightly, and his gaze fell on him.
Her face was hidden under the mask, revealing only those red lips, and her expression could not be distinguished.
It's just that the corners of her lips are slightly imperceptible.
"Okay, we'll see you tomorrow." As she spoke, she waved her cloak, and her body disappeared into the night like a ghost.
At the same time, shouts were heard in the direction of the granary.
"Oh no, the granary is on fire!"
"Hurry up and put out the fire!"
"Why is the water in the granary gone!"
A chaotic moment ignited the originally quiet night.
At the same time, the ghost general, who had long disappeared, came with a demonic voice.
"This is a welcome gift for you, don't thank me, ahhahaha."
The sound faded away before disappearing into the sky.
Ye Shuhua twisted her eyebrows and bit the corners of her lips vigorously.
Thinking about the doubt in her heart, if she guessed correctly, then it would explain why, the Northern Congress launched an attack in advance!
Their goal should just be to kill Yin Zixun and her!
And she is the one who shoots arrows hidden in the shadows on July 15th!
That being the case, then she can't let herself have something to do with Yin Zixun!
"Don't worry, we will win tomorrow, trust me."
Yin Zixun's comforting voice came, and Ye Shuhua withdrew from his thoughts.
She looked at him firmly, as well, and then nodded vigorously,
The fire in the granary was very large, and the water that had been stored to fight the fire was gone, so the soldiers could only go to the river ten zhang away to fetch water.
When Ye Shuhua and Yin Zixun arrived, the granary had already burned half.
She looked at the soldiers running back and forth, and a bucket of water swayed to the granary, and it became half a bucket.
Immediately ordered: "All soldiers carry water to extinguish the fire at arm's length apart!" ”
As soon as she gave the order, the soldiers immediately obeyed the order, and they were divided into more than ten groups at the moment, and the soldiers worked together, the speed of carrying water was faster, and the fire was quickly extinguished.
Only four or five remained of a dozen granaries, and the rest of the grain and hay inside, as well as the wooden silos containing the granaries, were burned to ashes.
There were a few grains of wheat at his feet, and they were all burned black.
The soldiers were also disgraced, and the faces of Vice General Xu and Vice General Ning led by him were also gray, and their hair was messy.
The hem of the cuffs also has traces of being burned by fire.
"Please punish the county lord, tonight is the last general on duty, it is the last general who is not properly guarded, and let the enemy sneak into the barracks and burn the military rations!" Xu Zhen knelt down and pleaded guilty.
The soldiers behind him also pleaded guilty, shouting loudly.
"You are on duty tonight, and you deserve to be punished for dereliction of duty and such a big loss! However, tomorrow the northern kingdom will come to attack us, and we will not punish you for the time being. ”
She glanced at Xu Zhen, looked at the soldiers again, and shouted loudly: "Tomorrow, there is a tough battle waiting for us, don't worry about the food problem, I will find a way to make up for it!" Tonight, everyone sleeps steadily, and tomorrow we will kill the enemy together! ”
"Kill! Fight the enemy! ”
Ye Shuhua's words successfully ignited the soldiers, and everyone was in unison, raising their fists and shouting in response.
Back at the main tent, it was late at night.
"The Yin family's business is all over China, I can send a message and buy grain nearby and send it to me."
Ye Shuhua nodded, he didn't say it, she thought the same way.
"Now, it's just a matter of waiting for tomorrow's battle." After speaking, she secretly held a secret weapon in her hand.
