Chapter 229: Literary Battle, Bai Li Wins

Bai Li thought for a moment, then said with a slight smile, "First, send out elite light cavalry to attack the pursuers under cover of night, dampen their spirit, and deter them from pursuing rashly.

At the same time, he ordered the army's craftsmen to quickly make siege equipment, pretend to attack the city, and confuse the defenders in the city.

In secret, spies were sent out to investigate the city's strengths and weaknesses and to find weak points in its defenses.

After the light cavalry successfully repel the pursuers, the entire army will unite and concentrate on attacking the weak points. After breaking the city, use the food and fodder in the city to replenish military supplies and turn the crisis into safety."

When everyone in the court heard this, they were all secretly amazed at Bai Li's clear thinking and clever response.

The envoy from Simon frowned and felt a little flustered, but he was still unwilling to admit defeat.

“Although what Marshal Bai said makes some sense, it is easy to talk about it on paper but extremely difficult to implement it in practice.

Let me ask you again, what will you do if the enemy sees through your plan and sets an ambush in advance?"

Bai Li responded calmly, "If the enemy sees through my plan, I will use their own tactics against them.

He pretended not to know of the ambush and deliberately sent light cavalry to lure the pursuers deeper into the encirclement.

After the main force of the enemy army enters the ambush circle, the ambushers will set up all directions to eliminate the pursuers first.

At the same time, he ordered the siege troops to speed up the attack, taking advantage of the fact that the defenders were weakened by the ambush and breaking through the city in one fell swoop."

The envoy from Simon Kingdom looked increasingly unsightly, with beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.

At this time, the Mongolian envoy finally spoke: "Marshal Bai is indeed worthy of his reputation. Envoy from Simon, I think you don't need to make things difficult for me anymore."

The envoy from Simon gritted his teeth secretly. Although he was unwilling to admit defeat, he could not find a reason to continue to make things difficult.

Suddenly, his eyes rolled as he came up with another plan: "Marshal Bai's military tactics are indeed formidable. Let's have another duel, focusing on medical skills. I've heard that Central Plains medicine is miraculous and can bring the dead back to life. If General Bai can cure a seriously ill patient within an hour, we'll be completely convinced and won't have to worry about it anymore."

Bai Li thought to himself that this envoy from Simon would not give up until he achieved his goal.

But she had some knowledge of medicine since she was young, and she carried various pills prepared by Doctor Mu with her. The space also had the most advanced medicines in the apocalypse. She accidentally found them when she entered the space the day before yesterday, so she was not afraid.

"Well, then please bring the patient."

You little brat, if I don’t make you convinced and admit defeat today, I will write her name Bai Li backwards!

With the emperor's permission, everyone moved to the imperial garden.

Soon, a patient with a pale face and weak breath was carried into the court.

The envoy from Simon Kingdom was secretly proud of himself. He had specially found this patient. This person had been coughing and spitting blood for years and was diagnosed as an incurable disease by doctors. Even the royal physician of Simon Kingdom was helpless. He didn't believe that Bai Li could cure him in just one hour.

Zhou Yu signaled the imperial physician to come forward and take Bai Li's pulse, thinking that if Bai Li couldn't be cured later, he would let the imperial physician help secretly.

Several imperial doctors came forward, but Simon ignored them. He was certain that no one could help a dying man unless a god came.

Several imperial doctors took turns feeling the patient's pulse, and then looked at his complexion, tongue coating, and eyelids. They looked at each other and shook their heads silently.

Zhou Yu was anxious, and even the imperial physician couldn't do anything. How could Bai Li, a military general, do it?

Bai Li looked around and saw the ministers whispering to each other. Although the voices were low, Bai Li could still hear them. They simply thought that Bai Li would definitely lose.

Bai Li glanced at Messenger Simon, walked forward calmly, pretended to take the patient's pulse, and observed the patient's complexion and tongue coating.

After thinking for a moment, she realized that this person seemed to have consumption, which is called pulmonary tuberculosis in the apocalypse. Experts had already developed an effective medicine for it, and it just happened to be available in her space.

In the end of the world, her organization distributed various medicines to members to put in their first aid kits, including a special medicine for treating tuberculosis.

She asked someone to prepare pen and ink, and casually wrote down a prescription for cough relief and lung moistening. The emperor immediately ordered the imperial physician to quickly prepare the medicine.

Han Yong, the Simon envoy, said, "For the sake of fairness, we should move the medicine furnace here so that everyone can witness it in person."

Zhou Yu waved his sleeves angrily, "Okay!"

Eunuch Li led his men to get busy and soon started decocting the medicine.

Time passed minute by minute, and everyone stared nervously at the bowl of simmering medicine.

An hour passed quickly, the medicine soup was ready, and Bai Li personally fed it to the patient.

Of course, during the feeding process, she secretly added some other powders into the medicine soup.

At first, the patient showed no reaction. The envoy from Simon State smiled mockingly, "Marshal Bai, it seems you're nothing special..."

However, before he could finish his words, the patient suddenly coughed a few times and spat out some black blood. Then his face gradually turned rosy and his breathing became much steadier.

There was disbelief at first, followed by a burst of exclamations.

The envoy from Simon State opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief.

He really couldn't figure out how Bai Li did it.

"This...how is this possible?"

At this time, the emperor spoke: "Envoy from the Simon Kingdom, Marshal Bai is superior to you in writing essays and poems, deploying troops, and even treating illnesses and saving lives. What else do you have to say?"

The Simon Kingdom envoy had no choice but to bow and salute: "Marshal Bai is extremely talented and wise. Our Simon Kingdom surrenders."

"Just admitting defeat isn't enough. You have to understand that I've come all the way here and been repeatedly harassed by your country. It's too frivolous for you to just admit defeat now!"

Bai Li was aggressive and refused to let go easily. He glared at Messenger Simon with sharp eyes full of mockery.

Envoy Simon looked embarrassed and sweating profusely, no longer having the arrogance he had before.

"Marshal Bai, I am Han Yong. Simon's national skills are inferior to mine, so I willingly admit defeat!"

After saying that, he bowed to Bai Li and gave a long bow.

Zhou Yu felt refreshed all over as he watched. The frustration he had just felt was finally released at this moment, and he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

Bai Li is really great. She is worthy of being the savior of the Great Zhou. She deserves the title of savior!

Seeing that the Simon envoy was still bowing and waiting for Bai Li's forgiveness, Zhou Yu deliberately turned his head to talk to Eunuch Li, pretending not to see it. He didn't want to help him out.

Seeing that he was so humble, Bai Li snorted before speaking.

"Since you're sincere in admitting defeat, let's forget it this time. In fact, whether it's a verbal or physical fight, none of you Simons are a match for our Great Zhou!"

That's crazy!

It’s also very infuriating!

But Han Yong was so angry that he rolled his eyes, but had no words to refute.

Upon seeing this, the Mongolian envoy gave a fake smile and stepped forward to rescue them.

"Marshal Bai is both civil and military, a woman who is as capable as a man. I admire her so much!"

"I wonder when Marshal Bai ever got married?"

Bai Li was stunned and looked up at Zhou Yu.

What does it mean?

Want to find a matchmaker for her?

Zhou Yu hadn't expected the Mongolian envoy to act this way. Before he could open his mouth, he heard him say, "If the information I know is true, Marshal Bai is still a free man and has not yet married."

so what?

Bai Li was at his ease, waiting for the next step.
