The garrison soldiers hurriedly took him off the horse, only to realize that his face was as white as paper, and he looked like he had lost too much blood.
Zhu Rong quickly ordered the garrison troops to send Xu Xiangli to the garrison to clean and bandage his wounds.
After a fuss, Zhu Rong looked at Yao Yao who was not getting off the horse and asked doubtfully: "Miss A Yao, how are you? Are you not injured?"
Yao Yao shook his head and said quickly: "No, no, I'm fine. I'm just tired. Just rest for a while."
Zhu Rong sighed in his heart, let alone a girl, even a man should be tired of being beaten.
He nodded: "Then I'll go take care of Brother Xu."
Yao Yao smiled with difficulty: "Okay, okay, Officer Xu is injured, but don't delay."
Seeing that Yao Yao was looking wrong, Gu Chen hurried up, helped her off the horse, and said worriedly: "A Yao, how are you? She's injured."
When his feet touched the ground, Yao Yao felt at ease. He moved his hands and feet before raising his eyebrows and smiling easily: "I'm exhausted."
Gu Chen glanced sideways at Yao Yao and snorted: "You deserve to die from exhaustion if I let you show off your talent."
Yao Yao wrinkled his nose and sneered: "Do you think I am willing to be stained with blood? If Xu Xiangli dies, the Fifth Beacon will be over and we won't be able to escape."
"Yes, yes, everything you said is right." Gu Chen stroked Yao Yao and said with a smile, "How is it? Can you still walk? Try taking a step."
Yao Yao grinned.
Taking a step or raising a leg is torture.
She had just been trapped in the siege of the Turks and her nerves were highly tense. She did not feel that her mind suddenly relaxed, and she realized that her legs were worn out by excessive exertion.
She sighed.
It seems that I still need to think about it and make a horse riding artifact to free my legs.
She took a step slowly, grinning in pain.
Gu Chen couldn't stand it any longer, so he knelt down and said, "Come here, I will carry you on my back."
Yao Yao grinned: "My legs hurt."
Gu Chen sighed helplessly and hugged Yao Yao sideways: "That's okay." He chuckled jokingly: "A Yao, you are taking advantage of me."
Yao Yao snorted: "Lao Gu, you are so attentive to me, maybe you are attracted to me."
Gu Chen stumbled, almost throwing Yao Yao to the ground, and the corners of his lips twitched: "Don't be ridiculous, I've fallen in love with you. When I see you, I feel like I see a brother. When I touch your hand, it's like touching mine." Like, why should I marry a brother of my own and go back and become a sworn sworn brother?"
Yao Yao gave Gu Chen a vicious look.
Meng Sui came over a few people away, and their expressions changed when they saw Gu Chen holding Yao Yao.
"A Yao, what's wrong with you?"
"A Yao, you are injured."
"A Yao, come here, let me see where the injury is."
Yao Yao looked at several people with a smile, his heart felt really warm, and his legs no longer hurt so much.
But as soon as Gu Chen opened his mouth, he was criticized. He raised his chin towards Yao Yao's leather boots, curled his lips and said sarcastically: "Our Yao was vomited by Ma Dian."
Meng Sui looked at each other a few times, with expressions of surprise and doubt.
Yao Yao kicked his legs and cursed angrily: "It was Xu Shuguan who vomited, and he was vomited by the horse."
When Gu Chen made such a fuss, it became an unclear case as to who Ma Dian was talking about. The garrison soldiers looked at Yao Yao and Xu Xiangli in the wrong way.
Xu Xiangli has been on the battlefield for a long time, and logically speaking, he should not be spit on by Ma Dian.
But even though Yao Yao was a girl, everyone saw her fierce tactics among the Turks just now, so she shouldn't be disgusted by Ma.
Yao Yao didn't bother to tell them anything. When he returned to his room, he fell down on the kang and rested for a long time before getting up to clean and bandage his wounds.
The battle started at dawn and ended at noon.
The sky was still sunny when we woke up in the morning, but now it has become gloomy. The clouds have gathered, blocking the sunshine. There is a bit of dampness and coldness in the dry air.
After the Turks retreated a mile, there was no other movement. They did not know that they were holding back an earth-shattering attack.
During lunch, Gu Chen knocked on the door and asked through the door: "A Yao, it's time to eat. Should I bring the food here, or should you go out to eat."
Yao Yao tidied up neatly, tied her hair tightly at the top, opened the door, took a look at the dark sky, and thought: "Let's go out to eat, and take a look at how Xu Guards and Zhu Guards discussed."
"You're healed. It doesn't hurt anymore." Gu Chen looked Yao Yao up and down and chuckled jokingly; "You healed really fast."
Meng Sui came over with a serious look on his face: "Lao Gu, you still have the heart to joke. If the Turks attack again, the Fifth Beacon will not be able to withstand it for long."
Gu Chen couldn't stand Meng Suige's serious face, and he couldn't stand Han Changmu's sullen expression.
He felt that life was already very bitter, so why should he look bitter and resentful?
Can a harmless joke kill someone?
Gu Chen glanced at Meng Suige coldly, ignored him, smiled at Yao Yao and asked, "Can you leave?" He rolled up his sleeves and continued teasing: "Do you want me to carry you over?"
Yao Yao grunted, raised his legs and left.
The fortress was quiet, and the smell of jade noodles was wafting in the air. The smell was so fragrant that it could make the gluttons in your stomach dizzy.
The people fighting this battle were exhausted, let alone Yujian noodles. Even if everyone was given a bowl of plain water, it would probably be as sweet as honey.
After finishing the Jade Noodles in a slurping manner, Xu Xiangli also recovered. The wound on his leg was bandaged and blood was no longer leaking out.
He tapped the desk with his finger, and although his words were slow and calm, there was a hint of bloodshed: "Although the messenger successfully got out, the Turks will definitely attack the fortress again, and we must be prepared in advance to meet the enemy. "
Zhu Rong nodded heavily: "Preparations must be made in advance, but there are only a few dozen garrison troops in the fort. In the battle just now, six more people were slightly injured, three were seriously injured, and three were killed. Our combat power is really insufficient. ."
After a moment of silence, Xu Xiangli suddenly slapped the desk hard, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said harshly: "Then just stick to it."
Yao Yao suddenly raised his head: "Guard Xu, the garrison is insufficient. Can we use agencies to make up for it?"
Having lived and died together once, Xu Xiangli naturally had trust and affection for Yao Yao, the person who saved him once. He looked at Yao Yao with gentle eyes like looking at his little daughter, gently Nodding, the title was changed to two more friendly words: "A Yao, you say."
Yao Yao smiled: "Guard Xu, I am not a member of the army, and the method I am thinking of may not be suitable for those who serve in the army." She concentrated for a moment: "If the Turks want to capture the fifth beacon, they must pass through the gate in front of the fort. For a section of the road, we might as well set up a few traps there and let the Turks destroy most of them first, then the rest will be easy to deal with."
Xu Xiangli became interested, tilted his head and asked, "What kind of mechanism are you setting up?"
Yao Yao thought about it: "I saw that there were crossbows with a very long range in the fort. The first wave of traps were made with crossbows filled with stone resin and fire. The second wave was on the ground in front of the fort. Dig a trap, lay it with nails and thorns, and use soft tendons to disperse the third wave." She paused: "If the three waves are set up like this, the Turks should lose a lot of troops."
After saying these words, several people fell into silence, neither agreeing nor objecting.
After a moment of silence, Zhu Rong shook his head: "These three waves of traps do sound good. The first and third waves are easy to set up, but the second wave requires digging traps in the open space, which is not difficult to do. There are Turks inside and outside. If we make the slightest move, we will be discovered by them. As soon as the fort gate is opened, they will definitely take the opportunity to attack."
Meng Suige also nodded: "Yes, the Turks must have guessed that the messenger ran out just now, and they will definitely take advantage of this period of time without reinforcements to launch an attack on us, and they will never leave anything for us. A breather.”
Gu Chen looked at Yao Yao's determined expression and spoke slowly: "A Yao, digging traps is naturally done at night, when others can't see it. It's easiest to do, but now the Turks obviously won't wait until late at night. Yes." He paused slightly, but smiled: "However, you never come up with useless ideas, so don't beat around the bush and just tell the truth."
Yao Yao smiled: "Lao Gu, you still know me best." She smiled easily: "If my prediction is correct, it will be foggy in less than two sticks of incense, and it will be heavy fog, let alone a mile. Outside, even if two people stand face to face, you can’t see their faces clearly.”
Xu Xiangli was surprised: "Ah Yao, can you still read the sky?"
Yao Yao pretended to be confused and smiled: "Celestial phenomenon? I don't know how to read it."
"Then how did you know it was going to be foggy?" Zhu Rong asked curiously.
Yao Yao pursed his lips and said jokingly: "It's written in the book, I believe it."
Several people suddenly fell down in anger.
Xu Xiangli did not delve into how Yao Yao knew there would be fog. He ordered the garrison to go out and watch the sky and report any abnormalities immediately.
Within a moment, the garrison hurried in and shouted: "Report to the garrison, it's foggy, it's foggy outside."
Several people's expressions suddenly changed, and they all stood up and boarded the fort.
Gray-white mist rose from the ground, mixed with gravel dust and dull water vapor.
A stream of earthy smell and dust hit the face, choking people and almost suffocating.
A telescope moved around among several people. After looking at it for a long time, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Sure enough, it was foggy, and it was heavy fog. Yao Yao's judgment was very accurate, but the only thing that was not accurate was that it was not that two people could not see their faces clearly when they were facing each other, but that they were face to face, so they could not see clearly. It's the nose, which is the eyes.
Yao Yao breathed a sigh of relief.
This is not fog. This is the haze she experienced in her previous life, okay?
Could it be that this haze was not unique to her previous life, but already existed in this unknown dynasty?
Xu Xiangli and Zhu Rong were overjoyed and arranged for the garrison to take advantage of the heavy fog to start setting up mechanisms.
