MTL - Drunk House-Chapter 467 Firm (one more)

  Chapter 467 Firm (one more)

  Thus, Su Rong prescribed Ruanjinsan and asked Feng Ling and others to find the corresponding medicinal materials.

   Zhou Gu added, "Be quick, don't expect to make enough at once, send back as much as you can."

   Feng Ling nodded understandingly, and immediately led the people there.

  Su Rong touched the head of a flying eagle, and said to Zhou Gu: "I have to send a letter to the city."

  Zhou Gu also felt that it was necessary to send a letter. At least Ningchi could be prepared. If every household has a water tank, fill it up quickly, so that it can last at least three days without drinking the poisoned water.

  So, Su Rong wrote a short letter, tied it to the eagle's leg, patted it on the head and said: "Fly higher, don't be stupid, don't be shot down by the soldiers outside the city, it's better to go high into the clouds, then enter the city, and then go straight down."

  Flying Eagle has undergone special training and seemed to understand it. It rubbed its head in Su Rong's hand, and then soared into the sky.

  Zhou Gu admires it every time he looks at it, "This little thing is really easy to use."

   Now he doesn't have to be envious, he also has one, given by Su Rong.

  Since he was a child, he read books of anecdotes and gossip, and always felt that many of the things and things written on them were too surprising. Did he ever suspect that it was true? But after seeing these flying eagles in Su Rong's hands, it is much easier to find someone to send a message thousands of miles away than a messenger. He felt that the world is so big and full of wonders. It is because his vision is too small to see.

  On the tower of Nanping City, you can clearly see the formation of soldiers and horses under the city.

  Ning Chi's face was solemn, "It looks like the Northern Hebei Army is about to attack the city."

   He ordered, "Get everyone ready for the night."

  The soldiers defending the city all woke up, cheered up, and waited for the Northern Hebei Army to attack the city.

  Ning Chi estimated the time, went down from the tower, returned to the mansion, and summoned the people, "The Northern Hebei Army is probably going to attack the city, and the soldiers and horses of the Duke Huguo's Mansion may not be able to come so soon. All the soldiers in our city will last for a day at most."

  Ning Ze turned pale, "Brother, what should we do?"

  He doesn't want to die, he still wants to go to Nanchu to be an official.

  Ning Chi didn't expect Ning Ze to come up with any ideas, and looked at Jiang Zhu, "Brother Jiang, have you come up with any ideas?"

  Jiang Zhudao: "As far as I know, there are more than 30,000 people in the city. There should be more than 10,000 strong men. These people can be gathered together to resist with the soldiers. If you include strong women, it is estimated that nearly 20,000 people can be gathered. If everyone is united, they can last for half a day."

   More than half a day is considered too much.

  Ning Chi immediately ordered people to go door to door to gather the people.

   "Is there any more?" Ning Ze looked at Jiang Zhu as if he was looking at straws.

  Jiang Zhu said: "There is another way, which is to collect more wood and oil. At that time, when the northern Hebei army attacks the city, they will throw down the burned wood. When the dry wood meets the oil, the less the fire, the more it will burn. When the fire touches the soldiers, add more oil and it will burn. In this way, it can withstand half a day."

   "Now it's winter in the city, and every household has dry firewood, but it's hard to say how much oil can be obtained. After all, oil is expensive. Not only dry firewood and oil, but also stones and iron utensils in the house, as long as they are sharp weapons that hurt people, you can collect them." Ning Chi ordered again.

   "Is there any more?" Ning Ze asked Jiang Zhu again.

  Jiang Zhu shook his head, "These are the only two ways. I can't think of any more. After all, it's hard for a clever woman to survive without rice. Now that there is a disparity in the number of troops, and they are trapped, I can only count on Brother Zhou and Miss Su Qi to do something outside the city."

   "Yes, yes, yes, Brother Zhou and Miss Seven will definitely not let the Northern Hebei Army attack the city without thinking about countermeasures." Ning Ze felt that there was more hope of being alive.

  Ning Chi gave Ning Ze a disgusted look. He really didn't know how Su Rong agreed to accept this thing. Could it be that he just liked his innocence and stupidity?

  The city is making preparations in full swing, and the Northern Hebei Army outside the city is also preparing for the siege.

  A flying eagle flew into Nanping City from high above the clouds, and swooped down after visual inspection over Nanping Hou Mansion.

   This flying eagle knows the way. After all, it lived in Jibei City with Su Rongfengling, which is much easier than sending a letter to the capital and finding Zhou Che who is on the march.

   "There is an eagle." A guard saw it first.

  Ning Chi stood up when he heard it, "What eagle? Where is it?"

  The guard immediately pointed to the eaves not far away.

  Ning Chi saw it, his eyes lit up, and he stretched out his hand to wave to the eagle. The eagle tilted its head to look at Ning Chi, flew over, and landed on Ning Chi's shoulder.

  Ning Chi hugged it quickly, looked down for the letter, and sure enough, he found the letter tied to its leg.

  He opened it, and saw that Zhou Gu thought of a way to poison the river outside the city, and told him specifically, but the river is relatively wide, and it needs a lot of soft tendon powder, so it may be effective. Now that there is a large amount, it may not be easy to deal with. If it is a small amount, I don’t know if it will be effective.

  Ning Chi heard the words and immediately sent people to the city to tell all the people to prepare water.

  Jiang Zhu said in amazement: "Is this actually a flying eagle delivering a letter?"

   "Yes." Ning Chi knew that Su Rong and Zhou Gu were also thinking of something, and felt much relieved, "This is Miss Su Qi's secret guard training. It is very spiritual. It is easier to use than a messenger at critical times."

   After all, the city is under siege, and a fly cannot fly in or out, but this eagle is different, it can avoid people from a high altitude.

   "Excellent." Jiang Zhu became more determined to follow Su Rong.

  The prescriptions prescribed by Su Rong are all common medicines. She deliberately changed the prescription of Qiangli Ruanjin Powder. After all, one of the original prescriptions was rare and difficult to find.

  So, Feng Ling took the people, and everyone went out empty-handed. After a few hours, a group of people came back with bags filled with herbs.

   It was not easy to get a large amount of herbal medicine during the siege of Nanping City by the Northern Hebei Army. In the past few hours, I traveled a lot and bought all the medicine halls in the towns dozens of miles outside the city. There is also a part that went to the mountains to dig medicine.

  Ziye led the hidden guards, under the guidance of Su Rong and Zhou Gu, set up a cauldron to boil the medicine, and finally boiled it into countless pills, put them into bags casually, and the dark guards quietly threw them into the river.

  At night, the North Hebei Army launched a fierce offensive against Nanping City.

  Su Rong and Zhou Gu stood on the top of the mountain, looking towards the direction of Nanping City, there was a faint sound of shouting and killing, and the flames were soaring into the sky. It seemed that the effect of the medicine hadn't taken effect, or it wasn't enough, or that the soldiers of the Northern Hebei Army didn't drink much water today.

  In short, it can only be carried by the soldiers in Nanping City.

  Although Zhou Gu has high martial arts skills, he has no way to lead his people to fight head-on with the 200,000 Hebei Army at this time, so he can only be patient and wait.
