Chapter 187 Horn

Su Chengnan asked Bingsan to get a piece of ice and then used a dagger to chisel it into pieces.

Liu Zi came over to ask, "What does this mean?"

"Gunpowder is tied to the end of a wooden arrow. After it is shot out at the usual speed, the gunpowder will explode in the air. If we hide broken ice or bamboo sticks like this in it, can we cause damage to the enemy like fairy flowers?"

The number of Beiling troops now is far less than that of the White Bear Country. If they cannot take advantage of other situations, it is only a matter of time before they are defeated.

Liuzi's eyes widened, as if he was shocked by what Su Chengnan said, "Miss, isn't your method a bit cruel?"

"This is a war! On the battlefield, if you are soft-hearted towards the enemy, you will lose your life and there will be no regrets." Su Chengnan said seriously.

"Yes! I was confused." Liuzi came to his senses instantly and began to look at the wooden arrow carefully to find a solution.

Liuzi pondered for a while, then said with a sad face, "If this thing is equipped with a sharp weapon, how can we solve the problem of distinguishing between friend and foe? After it is fired, it can't distinguish between friend and foe at all."

Su Chengnan had already thought about the problem he mentioned.

She curled her lips and smiled, "We don't need to equip all wooden arrows with this device. This problem can be easily solved when we are retreating or when the two armies have just started fighting and we are attacking unilaterally."

Liuzi's eyes lit up and he was happy: "Good idea! Then I know what to do, I'll give it a try. But if I use icicles, it can only be a backup option. The first choice is iron sheets or steel needles, but unfortunately..."

"Yes, but unfortunately Dayong's control over the Iron Cavalry is too strict. The two blacksmiths in the barracks are busy repairing weapons and have no time to deal with these things."

Su Chengnan comforted him: "Let's just do what we can do and don't complain about other things."

"Okay, I'll start working now."

Su Chengnan smiled and nodded, "Okay, I won't stay for long, you guys are busy."

"Okay! Take care, Miss. I'll have someone call you when the things are ready."

"I'll come and see it myself later, no need to bother."

"That's fine."

Liuzi smiled, not affected by the war at all.

Feeling. Maybe this is what craftsmen are like. As long as they have work to do, they can relieve all their worries.

She said hello to Sun Liangyuan and left the woodworking workshop first. She couldn't help with anything specific here and it would easily affect their work. Su Chengnan felt that these people would be more comfortable if she was not there.

Unfortunately, she was wrong.

In front of the young lady, these people seemed to have endless energy and tried their best to perform. If they were praised by her, they would be overjoyed.

When I went out, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

"It's snowing again?" She was stunned.

"Yes, young lady. Once the snow starts to fall again, there's no telling how long it will last. It's hard to say whether it's a good thing or a bad thing."

Bingsan caught up with him from behind. He bent down, scooped up a handful of snow, and wiped his hands left and right, cleaning the black dust on his hands. That was considered washing his hands.

"Diseases come from the mouth. You have to wash your hands thoroughly."

"It's okay. We live a rough life and don't care about these things." Bingsan waved his hands, crossed his two red, frozen palms, and stuffed them into the sleeves of his left and right hands.

"Wash your hands before you eat, otherwise don't eat!" Su Chengnan can't control everyone, but she has the obligation to remind the people around her.

"Okay, I'll go wash it when I get home."

"Um."

But Su Chengnan had just taken a few steps when he heard a burst of hurried horse hooves sounds behind him.

Several people stopped and turned back when they heard the sound.

"Military News -"

"Military News -"

"Mincheng is in danger!"

Su Chengnan's heart tightened. Mincheng? Zhao Jiyong?

Her eyes followed their figures all the way towards the big tent, only to see Lu Chaofeng hurriedly coming out of the tent, taking the letter from the leader, and turning around to walk inside with big strides.

"Let's go and take a look."

"Miss, isn't it inappropriate for us to go over there for important military information?"

"In this era, information is the most important thing. It is even more important than wealth! It is right in front of you. If you don't take the initiative to fight for it, you will always be at a disadvantage. Do you understand?"

After Su Chengnan finished speaking, she took the lead and walked forward without waiting for Bingsan to reply. Bingsan behind her was stunned looking at her back, feeling as if he had been enlightened and had a sense of sudden enlightenment.

"Miss, please wait for me. You are right! I am grateful for your advice." Bingsan chased after her and said seriously.

Su Chengnan nodded slightly, quickened his pace, and headed towards that end.

Woo——

The horn sounded.

Damn it! Why are these people here again? !

Su Chengnan started jogging against the flying snow, and soldiers suddenly rushed out from the tents around them, some of them running out without even putting on their shoes.

“Assemble! Assemble!”

"Hurry up, get your armor ready, and pick up your weapons!"

Someone blocked Su Chengnan's view, and the road ahead was crowded with people. Bingsan protected her carefully and had to slow down his pace.

“Get out of the way!”

"drive!"

Several horses ran out from the front, and the people sitting on them were Li Shanqi, Lu Chaofeng and others.

"General!" she shouted.

Li Shanqi looked at her without stopping, and shouted into the wind: "All soldiers, follow me to meet the enemy!"

"Yes! Yes! Yes..."

The deafening sound drowned Su Chengnan.

This time, Lu Chaofeng did not have time to stop. He just looked at her quickly and then rushed out following Li Shanqi.

However, Qingshan stayed.

"Miss, the prince asked me to escort you away first."

"I won't leave! What happened?"

"Miss, please don't embarrass me. The prince has issued a death order. If you insist on not leaving, don't blame me for taking action!"

Just as Qingshan was about to make a move, Su Chengnan took a step back: "Bingsan!"

"yes!"

Bingsan has been with Su Chengnan for some time, and the two of them have developed a tacit understanding through their daily interactions.

So when Qingshan was speaking, Bingsan saw Su Chengnan's hands behind his back secretly making a gesture towards him, and he knew it was time to take action.

"Bingsan! The young lady must go!"

"Stop talking nonsense. No one in our Su family is a deserter!"

"It will be too late if we don't leave now! They brought gunpowder this time!"

"What?!" Bingsan exclaimed.

Su Chengnan was also stunned.

To go or not to go suddenly became a dilemma.

She could choose not to leave, but how could she ensure that so many people in the Su family could live safely...
