After a while, Zhang Yuanyan and others met up with everyone at the intersection.
The group returned to the dock.
It quickly got dark.
Wei Xiyin did not go home directly, but went to the camp.
Chang Ying and Qin Shan followed the girl, talking as they walked, "The number of zombies shot today has not yet been counted."
Following behind them, Gong Liulang, who was about to say goodbye to everyone, heard this and replied calmly, "About 15,000."
Everyone stopped immediately.
You have to know that there are no Yizhou soldiers on their side. There is chaos and dense monsters outside the city gate. Why did Gong Liulang report this number?
Zhang Yuanyan, who was standing next to Gong Liulang, couldn't help but ask curiously, "How did Liulangjun know this number?"
Gong Liulang glanced up at him and said, "The first deep pit held about 800 zombies, and then it gradually decreased. With four rolls of logs and rocks, there were three deep pits on each side of the city gate, so there were about 10,000 zombies in total."
"And there are only 3,000 arrows, 1,500 on each side. 500 will be replenished in the afternoon. Adding in the number of people killed, is it difficult to estimate the approximate number?"
There was silence all around.
Wei Xiyin nodded slightly. Gong Liulang was right. With so many people and such limited equipment, it was not difficult to estimate the approximate number.
This kid is weak and only has a good brain. He's idle anyway, so I might as well find him something to do later.
After all, Chu Yu is almost too busy all day.
Everyone separated at the entrance of the dock and went back to their homes to find their mothers.
Once you enter the camp, there are no outsiders.
Wei Xiyin asked about the situation in the granary.
"Everything is normal near the granary. There's no enemy attack, and no one has been spotted alive." Chang Ying said, "But the head of the Yamen soldiers just passed a few words to Cheng Xiu outside the city gate, saying he wanted to see the girl."
Wei Xiyin was not surprised at all and nodded, "It's probably because of the group of people waiting for him to take the food back.
"Have Cheng Xiu tell him that I approve. Instruct him to prepare a letter himself, and have the gentlemen take it to the guards stationed at the granary."
What's the point of seeing something that can be solved with just one sentence?
She added, "Tell him that the fort doesn't keep idle people. Everyone who comes here has to work."
If you eat her food, you have to work for her. If a group of ancestors comes, she won’t support them.
Chang Ying replied, "Yes."
After Qin Shan finished counting the things, he came over to report, "Girl, we have only 600 armor-piercing arrows left, and 30 sets of chevaux de frise stakes left."
Arrows are completely consumables. Used arrows are stained with zombie blood, so there are certain risks in recycling them.
Especially the armor-piercing arrows that penetrate the zombies' bodies, which are poisonous from beginning to end.
Wei Xiyin pondered for a long time, "In that case, tomorrow we will remove the archers and use all the long tassel spears to kill the enemy. The remaining arrows will be used by the crossbow carts."
She wondered, why not collect those arrows and try to disinfect them?
It's a good opportunity to see if the zombie virus can be eliminated, but we have to wait until Ling County is cleaned up before we can start preparing.
Suddenly I feel like there is still a lot to do.
Wei Xiyin looked up and looked left and right, only to find that Chu Yu did not follow.
"Where is Mr. Chu?"
A guard quickly replied, "Miss, Mr. Chu said he was hungry and would go to the public kitchen to eat first."
Wei Xiyin was helpless and decided to at least say hello before leaving.
Seeing that it was getting late, she finished explaining her affairs and took Wei Lang home.
Wei Lang had been separated from his sister for several days, and he chattered all the way, talking about what happened on the way to transport grain.
Well... nothing actually happened on the way.
"Sister, there are a lot of wild flowers blooming outside, and this one is very big, but my cousins won't let me pick it." Wei Lang pouted and said dissatisfiedly.
He wanted to pick two to give to his sister.
Wei Xiyin walked with her head down, thinking about tomorrow's action, and nodded perfunctorily, "It's right not to pick it. A lot of the land is stained with monster blood. Don't touch anything outside after you go out, understand?"
Wei Lang looked confused, "Oh."
When the brother and sister returned home, their grandfather and Wenkang had already had dinner.
Wu Bo was about to ask the servants to go to the public kitchen to bring food, but was stopped by Wei Xiyin.
It’s okay to just follow my grandfather to eat delicious food on a normal day, but since Mingjingtang has rules, we should naturally abide by them.
After Wei Xiyin took her brother to the main courtyard to pay their respects to her grandfather, she went out to the public kitchen for dinner.
She made a detour to visit the blacksmith shop.
Now all four furnaces are processing arrows. Looking at the bustling scene, it seems that they are not going to stop tonight.
Wei Ting saw her coming and stood up to greet her, saying, "We've already made another 500 arrows. By the time we go out tomorrow, we should have more than a thousand ready to use."
Wei Xiyin was very surprised, "So fast?"
You have to know that they are all handmade, and hundreds of them were made in just one afternoon.
Wei Ting smiled and said, "Rui An created a set of molds. After pouring steel into the molds, twenty arrows can be produced at a time."
If the furnace mouth was not too small to accommodate large molds, perhaps their efficiency would be even higher.
It seems that we have to start a new furnace.
"Rui An is really good." Wei Xiyin exclaimed, this little girl is amazing.
This way the archers can continue to fight tomorrow.
However, it seems that no one has discovered that Xie Ruian is a girl?
Otherwise, according to cousin Ting's personality, he would never call someone by their name like that.
Wei Xiyin therefore strongly suspected that there was something wrong with the tribesmen's eyes.
It was already late, and Wei Lang was crying out in hunger.
She quickly said goodbye to Wei Ting and took her brother to eat.
No mention of what happened afterwards.
…………
The next day, it was dawn.
A small team of guards walked out of the fort, explored the way first, and checked the situation outside the gate of Ling County.
