After the military tried the medicines prepared by Zhuqing, they found that the medicines prepared by her prescription were significantly more effective than the previous ones. Liu Chengkang was even more full of praise for Zhuqing.
Princess Yuzhu is also very satisfied with Zhuqing's performance.
However, the war is approaching, and everyone's thoughts are focused on the upcoming war.
The enemy had been so aggressive before that we had already lost three or four cities. Although they were all little-known small towns, of course we had to not give up an inch of the border territory!
Moreover, the enemies were extremely cruel to the people in the cities they conquered. Therefore, after Princess Yuzhu almost recovered, she proposed that they must fight back in full force and drive the enemies out as soon as possible!
She appointed Kang Yizhi as the general and led 30,000 elite troops to stop the enemy. Lanxi asked herself to be the vanguard. She wanted to achieve military success early. Princess Yuzhu knew her thoughts and wanted to make those who were prejudiced against the female camp
After seeing the bravery and prowess of the female camp, the people nodded in agreement.
Zhuqing also asked to follow him to the battlefield.
The first city Kang Yizhi and the others went to was Ningyuan Town, a border town that had been battled by the enemy for a long time.
Here, because it has been impossible to attack for a long time, it is said that the second prince of Jin Man, Tiexizha, has become angry and plans to personally suppress the battle. He must capture Ningyuan Town and kill all the people in Ningyuan!
It is precisely because of the people in Ningyuan Town who would rather die than surrender that Princess Yu Zhu plans to fight a big victory here to boost their morale.
Kang Yizhi and the others traveled all night, and when they arrived at Ningyuan, they could hear the enemy's shouts of killing in the distance.
General Meng Nanchang, who was guarding the tower of Ningyuan Town, had bloodshot eyes, and his body was almost covered with dust and blood. Seeing Kang Yizhi, he became more energetic: "Master Kang, you are here, great!
"
"The enemy's offensive is too fierce. We have been on guard for seven days and seven nights. If there are no reinforcements, we have already agreed that we will die together with the enemy!" Meng Nanchang said, with a few strands of blood on his dry lips. He subconsciously said
He pursed his lips and licked away the blood streaks.
"General Meng, you've worked hard. Go down and rest for an hour, drink some water, eat something, and report to me on the enemy's situation later!" Kang Yizhi looked at his exhausted look and immediately ordered him and the guards to
All the soldiers in the city went down to rest first.
He personally led people to guard the city tower and ordered to shoot arrows first to suppress the approaching enemies.
The feather arrows they brought this time are all coated with Zhuqing's special medicine, which can poison the enemy hit by the arrow in an instant. In other words, as long as the enemy is hit, even if it is not a vital part, the enemy will be poisoned.
It is also necessary to die.
This relatively reduced the difficulty of shooting. For a time, thousands of arrows were fired from the towers in Ningyuan Town. The approaching enemies fell to the ground one after another after being hit by arrows, and died soon after.
Although the enemy was not afraid of death, such a quick death method still suppressed their offensive.
The coach who directed the attack was none other than Tie Xiza, the second prince of Jin Man.
"Your Highness, the enemy's arrows are poisonous! Almost all of our brothers who were hit by arrows died as soon as they hit the arrow! Daxia people are so hateful and despicable!" After hearing the report from his subordinates, Tiexiza was furious.
anger.
"Damn it, do they have reinforcements? Humph, no matter how many reinforcements there are, they are just lambs to be slaughtered in my eyes!" He raised his leg and overturned the tables and chairs in front of him.
"Since the arrow is poisonous, let's step back a little and give them a breather. Tonight, let's go find trouble with them again! I remember that the back mountain path in Ningyuan Town is ready, right? By then, we can
It's their fault!" Tiexizha laughed ferociously.
"Yes, we have already found out." His confidant Shi Moyan said.
"Listen to me. Those who are fighting should return to camp first and wait for orders. We will attack the enemy at the second watch in the evening!" Tiexizha gave the order, and the enemies who had been attacking fiercely retreated quickly.
The defenders of Ningyuan Town here could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Until Kang Yizhi's men came over, they had not had a good rest for seven days and nights.
At this moment, the enemy finally retreated, and they could finally rest for a while and catch their breath.
"Master Kang, your wave of arrows came just in time! This is how you should deal with them!" Meng Nanchang looked excited when he saw the enemy retreating.
"Well, our arrows are all filled with medicine! Those golden barbarians are too cruel and will not retaliate in kind. They don't know how powerful we are!" Kang Yizhi nodded and said.
"They retreated after a hail of arrows. It seemed a bit unlike their behavior!" Although Meng Nanchang was excited, he did not forget to remind Kang Yizhi.
"Well, what Master Meng reminds me is that these Jin Barbarians are said to be brave and unafraid of death. They would retreat so easily, fearing that there will be retaliation. We should proceed with caution!" Kang Yizhi was a comparison.
A person who is good at accepting reminders from others. He is not arrogant and domineering because he is valued by Princess Yuzhu.
"This is the topographic map of our Ningyuan Town, Mr. Kang, we can look at it in detail together." Seeing that Kang Yizhi was so easy to deal with, Meng Nanchang also took out the topographic map of Ningyuan Town and investigated it with Kang Yizhi.
Kang Yi had actually already studied the topographic map of Ningyuan Town before he came. But when he got here, of course he still had to look at what Meng Nanchang, the local defender, had to say.
"Master Kang, our Ningyuan Town is built on the back of a mountain, and the terrain is dangerous. Although it is not big, it can be regarded as the gateway fortress in our Pingxi area. If Ningyuan Town is captured by the enemy, then this Pingxi Mansion will be like a flat river.
The enemy is galloping." Meng Nanchang briefly introduced the terrain of Ningyuan Town to Kang Yizhi.
After Kang Yizhi heard him mention that Ningyuan Town was built on the mountain, he couldn't help but asked: "So, is there a trail leading in and out of the back mountain?"
Meng Nanchang nodded: "Yes, but I have sent people to control it. And the trails are steep and narrow, making it difficult to walk."
Kang Yizhi nodded, and then said: "In addition to the well-known trails, are there any other entrances and exits?"
Meng Nanchang hesitated and said: "I'm afraid only people who often go into the mountains to hunt and cut firewood will know about this. As far as the general knows, it seems that it no longer exists."
Kang Yizhi's face darkened: "This cannot be ignored. The Jin barbarians must have a plan for suddenly withdrawing their troops. Quickly, find the old hunter in the mountains and ask for answers. If the enemy sneak attacks from the back mountain, we have to guard against it!
"
Meng Nanchang was a little surprised, nodded and said: "Yes, I was negligent!"
At that moment, he immediately sent people to look for the hunters to come and question them.
Kang Yizhi was patrolling the city tower to comfort the wounded. At a glance, he saw Zhu Qing and others busy among the wounded.
