Mu Zhicheng has a relative who owns a fireworks factory, and he's going to book the entire factory tomorrow.
As for the steel armor, you can just go to the building materials market and buy explosion-proof steel sheets and cutting tools.
Anyway, these are the raw materials for the armor, and they're much cheaper than those from Mu Zhicheng Company.
After finishing all that, Chu Xiao checked the time and told Qin Yue Zhao that he was going to the morning market to buy grains and vegetables, and asked her to prepare to receive them.
Qin Yue Zhao didn't know what fireworks and firecrackers were. She was about to ask, but when she heard the deity say that something was wrong, she ultimately didn't ask.
After all, what the gods bestow is always the best.
At this moment, a figure scrambled up the cliff behind Liangcheng like a ghost, rushed back to the city gate, and suddenly knelt down at Qin Yue Zhao's feet, so excited that he was incoherent:
"Your Highness, General Nan has already led the main force and will arrive at the main battlefield of Liangcheng by tomorrow afternoon!"
Everyone present was shocked upon hearing this.
Huo Tingye, in particular, had argued with General Nan quite a bit in court before, and even fought with him over helping the Southern Frontier. General Nan declared that he would never let him get away with this.
Didn't expect they'd be coming to help out tomorrow?
Qin Yue Zhao also said excitedly, "I knew that General Nan was a man of great principle, not as muddle-headed as others said. When it comes to matters of principle, he still puts the safety of the country first!"
"Yes, Your Highness, we now have over 70,000 soldiers, plus General Nan's 100,000 troops, enough to fight the Northern Barbarians!"
"There's hope! Liangcheng is saved! The all-out effort is saved!"
Everyone was overjoyed.
Taking the opportunity, Qin Yuezhao said to General Huo, "Uncle, this is wonderful! General Nan is willing to help, so we will launch a surprise attack on the enemy camp tonight!"
"As long as we burn the enemy's supplies, we can attack from both sides with General Nan tomorrow and force the Northern Barbarian army to retreat."
Huo Tingye nodded.
"Yes! I'll arrange for archers to burn down the northern barbarian army's camp tonight, then send men to burn down the southern auxiliary camp. Let's learn guerrilla warfare from the gods!"
A group of people were assigning tasks in an orderly manner.
This mission, though simple, was also extremely dangerous.
The Northern Barbarian army was stationed thirty miles away from Liangcheng. Each of the northern and southern camps had a commander and four deputy commanders, with 80,000 soldiers. Therefore, there were many tents, and it was unclear which one contained the supplies.
Fortunately, the location of the stables is well-known.
The Huo family army could easily sneak past the numerous tents and launch a surprise attack on the stables.
Once the horses have scattered and fled, wrap the arrows with oil and shoot them directly at the enemy tents, burning them all.
Not long after, Deputy General Zheng Hu and Fourth-Rank General Ling Tianen split into two groups, each leading more than a hundred archers, and secretly climbed down from the Liangcheng city wall.
Dressed in camouflage cotton-padded clothes, they made their way towards the Northern Liang army's camp under the cover of moonlight and the mountains.
The camouflage clothing was similar in color to the yellow sand and trees, making it very easy to hide under the cover of night.
Things given by the gods are truly wonderful!
Qin Yue Zhao stood on the city wall, gazing intently in the direction of their message, silently praying in her heart.
I hope everyone can return safely.
More than an hour later, the two camps of the Northern Barbarian army on the left and right sides were set ablaze almost simultaneously.
Shouts filled the military camp. The Northern Barbarian army, still asleep, roared and howled as the Great Fire burned. The awakened enemy soldiers rushed out of the camp, saw the horses running wild, and tried to pull them back, but were knocked to the ground by the horses.
The stables were ablaze with flames, and the sounds of horses neighing and shouting echoed through the sky.
