Chapter 36: Dark Arrows Are Hard to Defend

While the troops were making preparations, Shen Bing returned to the artillery division.

This is a bit of comfort, because the artillery division is obviously much safer than other units.

If you want to be safer, I'm afraid you can only transport on the second line with those female soldiers.

Not only is this impossible, but sometimes female soldiers are just as unsafe.

Just like Yang Ting and the strong women she controlled.

Shen Bing handed a healing cloth to Gao Cheren, which he got from Zhang Xuan.

The man in Gaoche looked back and saw that it was Shen Bing. He quickly took it with both hands: "Thank you, sir."

Shen Bing was a little embarrassed:

"I still want to thank you."

"If you hadn't sacrificed your life to save me last night, I would have been dead."

The man from Gaoche quickly replied:

"The villain was saved by the elder, and it is his duty to keep the elder safe."

"My lord, if you say that, you are just trying to offend the villain."

Shen Bing didn't talk much to Gaoche Ren. He would probably go on for a whole day and still not get anything out of it.

He asked Fatty Tun to get some water and clean the wound on Gao Che Man's shoulder, and then tied the healing cloth on it.

This healing cloth was worn by soldiers of the Qin army.

Its production is very simple, just two pieces of linen cloth mixed with some plant ash.

Plant ash can dry out and stop bleeding, just apply it to the wound and it's done.

If it rains, add a few layers of leaves or something to wrap it up.

Of course, this is only used by ordinary soldiers.

If you are not of a higher rank, the healing cloth you wear on your head will not contain plant ashes, but hair ashes.

The so-called graying means that the hair is burned to ashes, which is called blood charcoal in traditional Chinese medicine.

The production process is still a bit troublesome.

Collect human hair, remove impurities, wash and dry it, then place it in a clean cauldron to be simmered and carbonized.

The healing cloth produced in this way has a better hemostatic effect and can also disperse blood stasis.

It is said that this is what women used during menstruation in this era.

Shen Bing didn't know whether this was true or not, and planned to ask Yang Ting another day.

But of course, with Shen Bing's identity and status at this time, he couldn't get gray healing cloth. It would be good to have plant ash healing cloth.

After the bandage was properly bandaged, Gao Cheren looked around and whispered to Shen Bing:

"Sir, be careful, someone wants to harm you."

Shen Bing couldn't help but laugh:

"This is a battlefield."

"I am a gunnery operator, so naturally someone wants to harm me."

"And there are people who want to harm me every day..."

Gao Cheren interrupted Shen Bing:

"The villain is not talking about enemies."

"It's one of our own."

Shen Bing couldn't help but wonder: "One of our own?"

The high-car man nodded:

"The Zhao army that came last night was a little weird."

"Our army has two thousand-man troops in front, and we can actually allow a thousand Zhao troops to break through the military formation and kill the artillery division."

"If Zhao Jun breaks through with all his strength, is it still possible?"

"Is our army going to be defeated on the spot?"

Shen Bing gasped with a "chi" sound.

This is indeed a bit weird.

Even though the Zhao army was an elite force led by Wang Bai, it only numbered over a thousand people after all.

Is it possible that the Qin army was vegetarian?

How could they break out so easily...

Shen Bing recalled the battle formation last night, but after thinking about it for a long time, he still looked confused.

His mind was full of trebuchets, fire bombs, and burning enemy camps, and he had no idea about the deployment of the Qin army.

The high-cart man looked at both sides, picked up a branch, and quickly drew three frames on the ground.

And clicked on the last box.

Shen Bing immediately understood that that was the position of the gunner.

Then the high-carriage man wrote the words "Zhang" and "Tian" in the two front boxes in a crooked way.

This is not because Gao Che was literate. He had observed the flags and just "drawn" them at this time.

Shen Bing still doesn’t understand:

Zhang Xuan could not harm him and had no reason to harm him.

Even though I had some beef with Zhang Xuan before, I have put aside the past grudges after the torture.

What's more, Zhang Xuan was fined another one armor in this battle because the number of casualties among his subordinates exceeded the number of enemies killed.

How can Zhang Xuan harm himself?

If it’s not Zhang Xuan, it’s Tian Qui!

But what reason does Tian Qui have to harm himself?

When Shen Bing was confused, Gaocheren drew an arrow pointing to the right next to the word "field".

So Shen Bing was convinced.

Koreda was deliberately avoided by that guy commanding the army...

When Gao Cheren saw Shen Bing nodding, he smoothed the sketch on the ground with a few kicks.

After all, the other party is a 200-500-year-old lord with a title, and Shen Bing and Gao Che cannot afford to offend him.

Shen Bing thought a lot at this moment, but was denied by himself one by one.

Go to Yang Ting to sue Tian Bei?

This is just asking for trouble.

Combat is not static, and no one knows what the commander is thinking.

For example, the troops were pulled away from Tian Tian...

From Shen Bing's point of view, it was deliberately letting the enemy pass through the formation and finally using Zhao Bing to kill Shen Bing.

But Tian Fei only needed to find an excuse to excuse himself.

For example, avoid its sharp edges and surround it.

Another example is worrying about enemy reinforcements coming later.

Another example is the intention to counterattack the city gate, only to find that the city gate is closed...

All these are high-sounding and no one can criticize or question them.

But Shen Bing knew that was not the case.

Shen Bing secretly sighed that the world was really dangerous. Not only were the enemies in danger, but he himself was in danger as well.

As the saying goes, "It's easy to hide from an open gun but hard to guard against a hidden arrow."

The danger from the enemy is easy to say, but death at the hands of the enemy is acceptable.

But he was unable to prevent his own people from plotting against him, and he died unjustly.

If it hadn't been for Gao Cheren's reminder, I might have died without knowing what was going on.

After thinking about it, Shen Bing told Gao Cheren:

"Only you and I know about this..."

The high-carriage man raised his hands and replied: "I understand, little man."

While Shen Bing was feeling depressed, the horn sounded at the top of the city.

Upon hearing the news, the Qin army gathered under the city from all directions and prepared to go to Ma Tou Mountain.

This time Yang Ting selected 7,000 people to go for reinforcements.

Only more than 3,000 newly arrived reinforcements were left to garrison the city.

This is the limit of the number of troops the Qin army can send.

At the same time, thanks to Shen Bing's burning of Zhao Camp, he won the battle with very few casualties.

Then he persuaded Wang Bai to surrender to solve his worries.

Otherwise, it would be good if the Great Wall's troops could protect themselves.

Naturally, the artillery division also had to go out with the troops.

Yang Ting even made a special statement:

"Make more fire bombs quickly."

"When I get to Matou Mountain, I will burn Li Mu again!"

Then Shen Bing understood.

The reason why this little girl is so confident in her relationship with Li Mu is because of the trebuchets and fire bombs!

Shen Bing's guess was correct.

The reason why Yang Ting rushed to reinforce without thinking.

On the one hand, it was because he was eager to save his father.

On the other hand, her confidence was boosted by last night's big win.

At this time, Yang Ting had already forgotten all those "wonderful skills and tricks".

"The Qin army is not weak."

"Another attack from both sides."

"And our army also has trebuchets and flint bombs."

"No matter how strong the Ma Tou Mountain is, it will be burned to ashes!"



Although he said this, Shen Bing felt that things would not be so simple.

If Li Mu was so easy to deal with, then Zhao would have been destroyed several times.
