Du Wanwan, a military doctor, overworked herself to death. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself branded a 'calamity star'—hated by everyone, facing a forced exodus, and expel...
Chapter 181: Heavy crossbows and machine crossbows work together to defeat the enemy
"There's nothing much to say about this ungrateful bastard. Let your family take care of him tonight and send him to Yuxian's farm tomorrow morning." The old lady said, "Anyone who sees him should know better." "As for the carriage boy, make sure to find him and give him some money to shut him up."
The Chu family's master sat down dejectedly and nodded slightly: "Son, I understand."
When she heard that they were going to the farm in Yu County, the aunt felt a black screen before her eyes and passed out.
Chu Hanlan hugged her and cried silently.
She didn't know where the farm in Yu County was, but she knew in her heart that the old lady wanted to send her away for fear that she would affect Chu Hanfeng's marriage.
But she was not convinced in her heart. She had not done anything with Mr. Du, so why was he sending her away?
“Grandma! Please don’t send Lan’er away. I will be obedient in the future and never do anything wrong again.” Chu Hanlan kowtowed to the old lady, leaving a bump on her head. “Grandma! Please! Don’t let your granddaughter go. I will be obedient in the future.”
After all, she was the one who raised him. The old lady looked at her son, sighed, and glanced at him.
Uncle Chu understood that the old lady wanted him to give her a way out.
He looked at Chu Hanlan in disappointment: "Mother! The idea must have come from that bitch, send that bitch away! After all, Lan'er is the blood of the Chu family, just keep her and teach her slowly."
"well!"
The old lady took the steps, walked down, sighed deeply, said nothing, and turned into the bedroom.
The meaning was very clear, which was to tacitly agree with the words of the old man of the Chu family and allow Chu Hanlan to stay at home and not go to the farm in Yu County.
Chu Hanlan heaved a sigh of relief. As long as she wasn't sent away, she still had a chance. Even if Chu Hanfeng married into the family, she would definitely win that man's heart.
She just didn't believe that the Du family was impenetrable. If Chu Hanfeng could marry in, why couldn't she?
Mr. Du was a handsome man, and he spoke in a gentle and polite manner. Although he was wearing cloth, he had an imposing manner and was more handsome than any young man she had seen before.
He also knows how to run a business, and has such powerful guards around him, so he will definitely be a great man in the future. It was her fault that she was too credulous and thought that the people who came to escape from famine were not good people at all.
Only after meeting her did she realize that she was wrong, very wrong.
Among those who fled here to escape famine, there were also some people as talented as gold and jade, who were no less talented than the children of the noble families in Liangjun City.
Du Wanwan and Du Wenjun didn't care about how the Chu family was dealt with later. It was someone else's family affair and they had no need to know.
As long as the Chu family doesn't change people, they don't care about anything else.
Ye Tingxiao led the commando team, divided it into six teams, and set off in different directions.
Originally, Ye Yi and Ye Er each led a team to attack the Qizi army. Ye Zhenghai was worried that Ye Tingxiao had no reliable people around him, so he left Ye Yi and Ye Er with his son.
Fortunately, during the initial training, we also took into consideration that if something unexpected happened to the captain, someone would have to take over, so basically everyone was trained on how to lead the team.
Plus, they are all well-trained secret guards, so they have no problems with cooperation and coordination, or obeying orders in combat.
The six teams, equipped with crossbows and filled with hatred for the Qiezi army, rode on fast horses and moved separately.
The crossbow was flexible, small in size, easy to carry, and could be fired quickly. The six teams went out like a tiger descending from a mountain, and they completely defeated the Qizi army without any chance of resistance.
When Ye Zhenghai heard the news, he was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. The express delivery from the capital had arrived, which was eight hundred miles away, asking him to transport the heavy crossbows to the border town to cooperate with the border troops and inflict heavy damage on the enemy.
Ye Tingxiao received the news from his father, and led his men to launch a surprise attack all the way to the border town, where he worked with the border town's defenders to resist the foreign enemies.
He formulated a series of combat plans and deployments, which were highly appreciated by the defending general.
I feel that the prince of Pingyang Marquis's Mansion is indeed extraordinary. He looks gentle and handsome, but when he fights, he is unstoppable.
Especially the wolf following him, which is really a great helper. It can understand human language and can complete tasks that many people cannot accomplish.
The Qiezi army was attacked everywhere. They had no idea where these people came from and when the Wei Dynasty had invented such a powerful crossbow. They were really hard to defend against.
Even though there were not many people who attacked them, six of them were almost as powerful as sixty or six hundred.
As soon as the crossbows were fired, the soldiers fell down in droves. By the time they rushed over, the soldiers had already run away. They did have cavalry, but they did not have crossbows with such a long range.
By the time they released their arrows, the arrows had already come and penetrated their bodies. The arrows were short and sharp, with strong penetrating power, which showed how powerful the crossbow was.
Not to mention the heavy crossbow, which can still fire continuously, with a range of up to a thousand meters. Once fired, it can knock someone down from a distance.
What’s worse is that before these cavalrymen could figure out what was going on, the people in front fell down, and the people behind them couldn’t control their horses and fell down as well.
The soldiers of the Wei Dynasty not only used heavy crossbows, but also machine crossbows. The arrows were fired at them like rain, densely packed.
Soon, the outcome of a battle, the defeat, and the victory or defeat were clear at a glance.
Several major battles were fought, with heavy crossbows and machine crossbows working in coordination with each other, and the commandos coordinating with other armies, which broke the mentality of the generals.
The Qizi, who were about to advance into Liangjun City, were defeated by such tactical attacks and retreated back to their own territory.
According to Ye Tingxiao, they wanted to pursue the victory and attack the imperial capital of Qiezi, but Qiezi had already submitted a letter of surrender, so the Wei Dynasty had to cease fire.
The guard patted Ye Tingxiao's shoulder, smiling with tears in his eyes, "My Lord! This battle was a great success, and you are the main contributor. Without you and your men, and the weapons you brought, we, the Great Wei, would not have been able to defeat the enemy so quickly.
Hahaha! I’m back again, damn bastards, let’s see what they can use to fight me this time.”
After months of fighting, Ye Tingxiao didn't think too much, he just thought about his Wanwan. His illness has been cured, it's really cured without any medicine.
Wanwan's medicine is magical. It lasts for half a year. When the time is up, the effect of the medicine will automatically disappear and the body will recover its functions.
He finished the water that was given to him. Wanwan's water was like an elixir. Whenever he felt tired, exhausted, or sleepy, he would just drink a few sips of water and all the fatigue would be gone.
No wonder she said she couldn't give it to others to drink. The water was so magical that it really couldn't be given to anyone. It was his Wanwan's secret and couldn't be known by anyone.
The more people know, the more dangerous Wanwan will be.
His Wanwan was simply a fairy sent by God. Without his Wanwan, the war between Dawei and Qizi would have been impossible to end so quickly.
His fairy skills are too powerful, such a person is easily coveted, no wonder she wants to hide her achievements and fame. A person who knows how to restrain his edge can be seen to be very smart.
His daughter Wanwan is very smart and he likes her very much, to the core.
