If he slept with these two bags of stuff, he would probably be choked and dizzy before long.
In the end, Wu Zhi was extremely helpless and had no choice but to hang the two bags of low-quality fragrant powder on his horse.
And he, taking advantage of the darkness, drove a carriage and drove quickly.
Originally, he wanted to get some more black powder in this town.
But the probability of getting that kind of thing among the people is extremely small.
And the raw materials for making black gunpowder are not seen here.
So, he had no choice but to drive to the next town.
The three items of saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal are very difficult to collect.
It was only when their carriage galloped all the way to the foot of Liangshan Mountain that Wu Zhi prepared dozens of kilograms of black powder.
Although the number is not very large, it can be of some use in dealing with the situation before us.
Currently, the main entrance of Shuibo Liangshan is almost full of bandits and strongmen from Qingfeng Village.
Therefore, it seems impossible for Wu Zhi and Pan Jinlian to enter Shuibo Liangshan through the main entrance.
Fortunately, he had foresight. Before leaving the village last time, he secretly asked Liu Laosan to dig a secret passage up the mountain for future emergencies.
I didn't expect it to be used so quickly.
Within Liangshan Dazhai.
During this period of time, Song Jiang and Wu Yong, commanding the minions from Qingfeng Mountain and Taohua Mountain, have launched several attacks on Liangshan Dazhai.
If it weren't for those bamboo arrow towers and the fierce resistance of the people on Shuibo Liang Mountain, I'm afraid the mountain stronghold would have been breached by Song Jiang's group long ago.
But even though they tried so hard to defend, they still couldn't slow down the attack of Song Jiang's group.
Originally, before Wu Zhi left, he had ordered Liu Laosan to build three bamboo arrow towers on each side of Liangshan Dazhai.
The three bamboo arrow towers on each side are arranged in a V shape.
The two arrow towers are in front and are used as the main offensive.
An arrow tower is at the rear for fire support.
Originally, this defense system was quite good.
As long as there are enough arrows on the arrow tower, Song Jiang's group of minions will not be able to invade the stronghold!
However, the bad thing is that under Song Jiang, there is a dog-headed military advisor named Wu Yong who can't shake the bottle half full.
Wu Yong, a wise man with many stars, is extremely good at the small and exquisite way.
Seeing before their eyes, the dozen or so bamboo arrow towers had created many obstacles for their attack.
So, he came up with a plan.
When the two sides were shooting arrows at each other, since Song Jiang's side was attacking from the rear, those archers not only could not take any advantage, but they would also cause heavy casualties to their own archers due to problems such as the angle of the upward shooting.
The strategy Wu used was to let the archers shoot rockets instead.
And the target of the attack was no longer the soldiers on the bamboo arrow towers, but the bottom of those arrow towers.
Wu Yong's strategy achieved great results as soon as it was implemented.
After a round of arrow rain, the three bamboo arrow towers standing in front of the gate of Liangshan Dazhai burst into flames.
As for the people in Dazhai, they were afraid of the other party's surprise attack, so they could only watch helplessly as the bamboo arrow towers were destroyed in the fire, but they were helpless.
At this point, the most powerful defensive facilities on Shuibo Liang Mountain have also failed.
As a result, the people on Liangshan Mountain had no choice but to engage in hand-to-hand bloody battles with the leaders and minions brought by Song Jiang.
Previously, due to those bamboo arrow towers, they not only delayed the attack of Song Jiang's group, but also caused them to lose nearly 2,000 troops.
Now, coupled with the desperate resistance of the leaders and soldiers on Shuibo Liangshan, Song Jiang and his group were helpless against Liangshan Dazhai for a while.
Just when the two groups were in a stalemate, Wu Zhi finally returned.
On Liangshan Mountain, there were originally not many combatable units, only three regiments, and they were not fully staffed.
Although in the later period, after the recruitment of Shenji Military Advisor Zhu Wu, one hundred more soldiers were added to each of their three regiments.
But the number of soldiers is still far from enough.
After the previous rounds of fighting, each group suffered considerable damage.
Now, the three regiments under the flower monk Lu Zhi, the leopard-headed Lin Chong, and the green-faced beast Yang Zhi have less than 300 people left in each regiment.
The total strength added together is just enough for a full regiment.
This also strengthened Wu Zhi's strategic policy of winning by cleverness.
After the leaders of the Juyi Hall briefly reported to Wu Zhi the casualties of the personnel under their respective jurisdictions, Wu Zhi let them go down to rest.
Keep your spirits up for the next battle that may happen at any time.
Only Liu Laosan, who was good at making instruments, was retained.
"Old Liu, our village is currently facing the biggest crisis since its establishment."
"If we fight head-on with Song Jiang and his gang, we will definitely suffer a loss."
"After all, we are currently severely short of soldiers, so I want to win by cleverness."
"And this so-called coincidence will probably fall on your shoulders, Liu Laosan."
Liu Laosan looked at Wu Zhi and knew with the solemn expression on his face that his next burden would definitely not be easy.
But all his life, he has relied on his craftsmanship to earn a living.
If you say that he can't lead troops to fight or charge into battle, then he has nothing to say.
After all, I have never practiced before, right?
But if he is asked to take on the task of manufacturing equipment, then he can pat his chest and guarantee that there will be absolutely no problem.
"Brother, if you need anything from me, just say it."
"As long as I can do it, I will never refuse."
Liu Laosan has been living in a state of confusion ever since he was kicked out of his master, Li Jie.
All day long, nothing but drinking and talking nonsense.
Life has neither goals nor motivation.
I thought I would spend my whole life just eating and waiting to die.
Unexpectedly, he met Wu Zhi.
Wu Zhi was not only extremely interested in the things he created, but also relied heavily on him.
This gave him the feeling that a hero had a place to play.
At the same time, as the things he built were gradually recognized by the leaders in the village, he also found a feeling of home here.
At this time, Wu Zhi had already set up a stage for him that could turn the tide.
Then he would never let Wu Zhi regret this decision.
Liu Laosan not only wants to use this stage to prove his ability.
At the same time, it also proved to his master that even without his master's guidance, even if he was kicked out by his master, he could still do an outstanding job in the craftsmanship.
