"Yeah!" Tong Zhifu nodded and looked towards the city gate.
"Looking at this movement, the rebels shouldn't come tonight."
A distance of 50 kilometers would take at least 5 hours even if you walked fast.
After five hours of traveling without eating or drinking, the rebels would be very tired by the time they arrived at the gate of Shiquan City.
Xiao Yunzhan is not stupid, so why would he let his soldiers be so tired when attacking the city?
The legal advisor followed Magistrate Tong's gaze and looked towards the city gate tower.
There are four or five times more soldiers on the city gate tower than before, and the city gate has been blocked tightly.
The gate of Shiquan City is higher than that of other cities, so it takes a lot of effort to attack it.
"Taking into account the rebels' time to rest and eat, the earliest they can attack the city is tomorrow at noon."
However, he guessed that the rebels would not attack the city at noon.
The sun was at its hottest at that time, and the rebels could not see the city wall clearly when they looked up.
Tong Zhifu pulled the corner of his lips,
"Nine out of ten times, he'll call me tomorrow afternoon. Wait."
He actually hoped that the rebels would attack now and kill Dong Wenfeng directly.
Thinking of killing Dong Wenfeng, Tong Zhifu's eyes dimmed slightly, and he lowered his eyelids to look at the bucket of saliva at his feet.
If you put a packet of poison in it, make it into steamed buns and give it to Dong Wenfeng to eat, wouldn't that just send him away?
He was now very sure that Dong Wenfeng would definitely kill him as long as he won the battle.
After thinking about it, Magistrate Tong smiled self-deprecatingly and shook his head.
He was thinking too simply. There was no way that madman Dong Wenfeng wouldn't be on guard against him.
If Dong Wenfeng let the soldiers eat the poisoned buns first, they would be the ones to lose their heads the next moment.
"Let's go back and steam the buns."
Prefect Tong bent down, suppressed his nausea, picked up the wood, and walked towards the prefectural government office under the moonlight.
The master frowned, suppressed the nausea in his heart, and quickly chased after him.
Late at night, in the kitchen of the prefectural government office...
“Ugh~~”
"Ugh~~ Ugh~~"
"Aww~~"
“.......”
The cook stood at the kitchen door with a frown on her face, muttering softly,
"Why is kneading dough like being pregnant? Is it really that disgusting?"
In the middle of the night, the prefect and his legal advisor suddenly woke her up and asked her to teach them how to knead dough and steam buns at the kitchen door.
She was familiar with kneading dough and it was something she could do easily. She wanted to go into the kitchen to knead the dough herself, but was stopped by the master.
I really don't understand why Magistrate Tong suddenly wanted to steam buns himself when there was such a severe water shortage.
The retching sounds in the kitchen continued for an entire hour...
.......
"This place is about 15 kilometers away from Shiquan City. Have a good rest for the night and continue your journey tomorrow morning."
Xiao Yunzhan raised his hand, signaling the large army to stop.
After a day and night of travel, it's time for the soldiers to have a good night's rest.
"All the spies on the road are gone. They have all retreated to Shiquan City. Dong Wenfeng should be ready for battle."
Lin Yiran stood on the three-wheeled motorcycle and looked towards the direction of Shiquan City.
During the day, you can still meet many refugees on the road, but by the evening, you almost don’t see any refugees.
It seems that Shiquan City is under lockdown and the people in the city cannot leave.
As for the people in the villages outside the city, those who could run away had already run away.
"That's right." Xiao Yunzhan nodded, jumped off the horse, looked up at Lin Yiran who was standing on the three-wheeled motorcycle,
"You have a good rest, and leave the rest to me."
Ranran made so many shields today, and he was worried that she didn't have enough energy.
He had never seen Ranran look so embarrassed when asking the God King for something.
I think Ranran must have paid a huge price.
He couldn't help Ranran in any other way, so he could only let her rest more.
"Let the soldiers have a good meal first."
Lin Yiran glanced at the space where more than half of the steamed buns, dumplings and sesame cakes were missing, and took a deep breath.
"Each person gets a meat bun, steamed bun, or sesame seed cake, and a bowl of vegetable and lean meat porridge."
The first time is new, the second time is familiar, Lin Yiran has become very experienced in negotiating prices.
The price of a 500ml bowl of vegetable and lean meat porridge has been negotiated down from 10 yuan per serving to 7 yuan per serving.
He bought 320,000 servings of vegetable and lean meat porridge at once. Even if it costs 7 yuan per serving, it would cost 2.24 million yuan.
This is a considerable expense.
Fortunately, the store owner was generous enough to know how to seize Lin Yiran, a big customer.
The store also gave away 200 boiled eggs, 200 steamed buns, 200 corn and pork dumplings, 20 bowls of mushroom and clams porridge, 20 bowls of yam and shrimp porridge, 20 bowls of corn and shrimp porridge, etc.
The shop owner gave Lin Yiran some of the food in his shop.
Lin Yiran kept the food given by the store and used it as dinner for the gluttons in the Xiao family.
Even though the store gave away a lot of food, the Xiao family could still eat it all.
Even the youngest Ling Hui can eat three bowls of porridge plus five steamed buns, 20 steamed dumplings, and five eggs...
Before Xiao Yunzhan could say anything, a row of endless food appeared in the middle of the long official road.
