Chapter 248 Test

There was dust flying in the distance.

The attack from the White Bear Country came faster than Su Chengnan had expected.

There was a cloth strip tied to the arrow feathers. Bingsan took it off and presented it to Su Chengnan with both hands.

"Miss, the White Bear Country has sent three thousand elite soldiers here. If we don't release them, they will attack immediately." He was anxious.

“Can’t let go!”

“Can’t let go!”

Su Chengnan and Zhong Yinghan shouted almost at the same time.

"Report!"

"The enemy is twenty miles away! About three thousand people!" A soldier hurried up.

"General, what should we do?" The soldier ran so fast that his hat fell off.

Zhong Yinghan shouted, "Why are you panicking? Everyone, be fully armed and on guard! Evacuate the people immediately!"

"Yes!" A soldier quickly turned around and went downstairs.

"Miss Su, you should go down first. It's dangerous here!" Zhong Yinghan said.

Su Chengnan looked into the distance with a worried look on his face, and after a moment's silence, he said, "We can't let them notice our hesitation. Guarding the city gate is the most important thing. I have another idea that may be of some use."

Zhong Yinghan was anxious, "What can we do?"

Su Chengnan pointed to the large area of ​​snow below the city and said, "If we sprinkle water on the snow, the road surface will freeze quickly in cold weather. They are mostly cavalry, so attacking at this time is our chance!"

Zhong Yinghan's eyes lit up, "Ice?!"

Su Chengnan nodded, "That's right, hurry up now, maybe there is still a chance!"

Zhong Yinghan waved his hand and said, "Someone, come here! Hurry up and find a water truck to sprinkle water outside the city!"

The soldier was puzzled, "Huh?"

"Hurry up! Find all the water wheels in the city, and hurry up! If you delay things, I will hold you accountable!"

"Yes, yes, I will do it immediately.

Su Chengnan turned around and said seriously, "General Zhong, the city gate is up to you. I will go down and organize the people to make some preparations. We used some equipment in Beiling before and it worked well. I have sent people to pull it."

Zhong Yinghan clasped his hands together and said, "Okay! Thank you very much!"

Su Chengnan hurried down the tower, and as he walked, he said to Bingsan: "Let everyone in the Su residence come out to help, everyone has experience."

"Okay!" Bing San bent his little finger and put it to his lips, blew a few whistles, and after a few seconds, the secret guards quickly came over.

"Miss."

"You two go back and ask everyone to come out and help. The second lady will take people to set up a logistics station in the city, and then go and ask Chen Gang to go to the city tower."

"Okay, I'll go now!"

"You two go to the City Lord's Mansion and ask those clerks to go to the carpentry workshop to help."

"Can your subordinates respond when I call them?" The secret guard hesitated.

"As long as the mountains are there, nothing can stop us."

"good."

Several people left quickly.

At the command, the whole city responded.

Everyone started moving quickly.

…

…

Located twenty miles outside Ningguta City.

Three thousand elite troops from the White Bear Country are stationed here.

Inside the tent.

"General, the second arrow has been shot, but the enemy has no reaction."

"Hmph, then kill a few guards and let the arrows get stained with blood." Sitting on the main seat in the tent was a vanguard general wearing armor and a circle of fox fur around his neck.

"But if that's the case, will they attack the second prince?" the man hesitated.

"They dare?!!"

”

Han Liping is a profit-seeking and timid person. He is holding our Second Prince hostage for the sake of more benefits. Even if I give him ten times the courage, I don't think he would dare to really attack the Second Prince. ”

"Could it be that something else happened in the city?"

The vanguard general frowned, thought for a few seconds, and said hesitantly: "It shouldn't be?"

Then he asked again, worriedly, "Have any spies come back to report?"

"No. There has been no news in the past few days. After the Second Prince organized that action, there has been no news since then."

"Find a way to get in touch with the people in the city and send someone to investigate!"

"Yes! I will go there immediately."

The White Bear Country launched this attack, on the one hand, because they had reached some unspeakable agreement with the capital, and on the other hand, because they thought Han Liping had designed to control the second prince.

Su Chengnan and his group were anomalies in Ningguta. They took control of the city too quickly and captured all those people in one fell swoop without letting anyone go, so the White Bear Kingdom did not know what exactly happened.

They could never have imagined that Han Liping, the leader of Ningguta, had been thrown into a dungeon and the atmosphere in the city had changed overnight.

"Report!" a voice came from outside the tent.

"Come in," he said loudly.

The soldier rushed in, "General, we found something!"

"explain!"

"There are many water wheels outside Ningguta City. They seem to be sprinkling water?" The soldier knelt on one knee.

"Not good!" The vanguard general frowned and slammed the table. "They want to freeze the road and hinder our cavalry's advance!"

“@%￥……￥!#%”

“These bastards!”

"General, how should we respond?" asked the soldier.

"Go, send someone to kill those people for me!"

"But if we take action first, the Second Prince might be in danger."

"Second Prince! Second Prince! What a trouble! I didn't agree with his plan at the time. He insisted that Han Liping could be won over as long as he was promised a huge profit. But I didn't expect that Han Liping would take the money but not do the job, and even got the Second Prince himself involved."

"Don't worry, General. At worst we can just..." The personal guard raised his hand and gestured, indicating that it would be better to go with the flow.

The vanguard general had a gloomy face and waved his hand, "Forget it, shoot another arrow! Then send someone to pull those waterwheelers back."

"Okay." The soldier left quickly.

…

Night was about to fall, and Ningguta was shrouded in fog in the evening, with the visible range obviously much lower than before.

On the city wall, everyone is on standby at all times.

The waterwheel moved quickly and had already run back and forth several times.

However, they were ordered not to go far and their range of movement must be strictly controlled within the range of large bows and crossbows.

"Report!"

"The enemy is moving!"

A soldier quickly reported this to Zhong Yinghan.

Upon hearing this, Zhong Yinghan immediately picked up the telescope hanging around his neck and looked.

Looking around to the left and right, he moved his sight horizontally and soon found the other person's figure.

"To our left, hurry up, blow the whistle and ask them to come back."

"yes!"

"Bows and crossbows ready!"

"yes!"

At the same time, the soldier blew the whistle, three long and two short, repeating it five times.

The waterwheel under the city received the signal, immediately stopped what they were doing, and quickly retreated.

“Gee—Gee!”

"rush--"

The sound of the White Bear Nation's iron hooves became louder and louder.

The raised dust mixed with the white mist, making it increasingly difficult to distinguish the exact number of people.

Zhong Yinghan didn't care about all this. He was worried that he had no chance to test the power of this large crossbow.

Now is the best time.

"Prepare!"

"Three, two, one!"

"Shoot!"
