Chapter 96

"Miss, are we going to stay until Liaoshan Town is captured by the Liao Army?" Mo Qingchen asked.

"Why didn't you say that the imperial reinforcements arrived in time to repel the Liao army?" Luo Cheng poured the last mouthful of porridge into his mouth.Lieshan town was besieged by the Liao army for half a month, and the food stored in the town was consumed every day, and the rest could only last another 20 days at most.Therefore, the town has begun to limit the food supply, while in the military medical camp, each military doctor only has three bowls of rice porridge to supply every day.

Luo Cheng actually didn't want to waste food, but in order to show off, she would eat a bowl of rice porridge every day, and the other two bowls were for the seriously wounded and the two older military doctors.

"The Liao army surrounded Lieshan Town so tightly that not even a fly could fly out. How could they ask for reinforcements from the imperial court? This time the Liao State invaded the Luo Song Kingdom with great force. It was impossible to simply attack Lieshan Town. A place. Other towns bordering the Liao Kingdom should also have been attacked, and they are too busy to take care of themselves. It is impossible to allocate troops to help Lieshan Town." Mo Qingchen rarely had a long phone call to analyze the situation clearly, just to avoid Luo Cheng continuing Staying in Lieshan Town took risks.

"Hey," Luo Cheng sighed, and put down the bowl in his hand, "This time, Lieshan Town is more or less ominous."

"Miss, do you want to leave?" Mo Qingchen was not afraid of death, but he didn't want Luo Cheng to suffer the slightest harm.Although the Liao army blocked all the ways to leave, he believed that with the sword in his hand, he could protect Luo Cheng from this dangerous place.

Luo Cheng shook his head, "Wait a little longer! Although my character is destined to not be a kind-hearted person like a virgin, if I just leave the wounded soldiers and the people of Lieshan Town and run away by myself, my conscience will be disturbed I want to be with them till the end; I want to help them as little as I can.”

"Dangerous!" Mo Qingchen disapproved. If Lieshan Town was breached, Liao people's brutality would massacre Lieshan Town.At that time, escaping was three or four times more dangerous than sneaking away from the encirclement of the Liao army now.

"Don't worry! I'm afraid of death, and I won't sacrifice for others. Of course, I won't sacrifice you either." Luo Cheng promised with a slight smile.

Mo Qingchen's heart trembled when he heard the words, but the warmth that had just risen in his eyes was wiped out by Luo Cheng's next words.

"If you die, where can I find another capable, loyal and good-looking subordinate like you?"

Well, no matter what the reason is, in short, you still need me, and I will always be by your side!Mo Qingchen silently clenched his palms tightly.

Luo Cheng took out a random scroll from his belt and showed it to Mo Qingchen, "When it's really critical, we just need to tear the random scroll, and we can be teleported to a safe place."

Mo Qingchen once again lamented the magic of the props in Luo Cheng's hands, and his heart was finally relieved.

"Let's go, there's a lot to do today!"

The Liao army started another wave of attacks, and Luo Cheng became even more busy. After the feeding operation for the wounded soldiers with broken legs in the morning, the wounded were continuously sent to the wounded barracks, and Luo Cheng was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground.

"Miss, drink some water." Mo Qingchen brought the cup to Luo Cheng's mouth, and Luo Cheng drank water from Mo Qingchen's hand, moistened his dry throat, and couldn't help frowning, "The person who was injured today Why are there so many?"

"..." Mo Qingchen stayed by Luo Cheng's side all the time, not knowing the situation of the battle.

"Doctor Luo, the Liao army used the 'Thunderbolt Chariot', and all the brothers were injured." A slightly wounded soldier loudly explained Luo Cheng's confusion.

Thunderbolt?
Fearing that Luo Cheng would not understand what a thunderbolt car was, the wounded soldiers explained to Luo Cheng one after another: it turned out that the thunderbolt car was a large siege machine, and it used the principle of leverage to put a huge iron pestle on the wooden car. One end was tied with a rope, and a shovel was attached to the other end, about four feet square, filled with gravel and stones.When it is time to use it, push the thunderbolt car close to the city, and everyone pulls the rope hard, and the lever will bounce the stone at the other end into the air.In an instant, sand and stones flew and fell straight towards the top of the city, making it impossible for the Song soldiers to guard against them, breaking their arms and legs, and wailing...

As everyone talked, an intuitive image appeared in Luo Cheng's mind.Does this thing look familiar? !

Finally, Luo Cheng remembered that she had seen this thing in the Cultural and Historical Archives. "A kind of ancient chariot. It is equipped with a mechanism and throws stones. Because the sound is like thunder, it is named thunderbolt chariot." It was invented by Liu Ye, a counselor in Cao Cao's army.In the Battle of Guandu, Yuan Shaojun used high oars (that is, building oars, high platforms for defending or attacking the city), and Liu Ye used thunderbolt chariots to throw stones to destroy the high oars.

In ancient times when mechanical knowledge was lacking, thunderbolt chariots were a great weapon for siege, and it was almost difficult for the defender to resist the power of thunderbolt chariots.Seeing more and more wounded, and the sounds of the wounded moaning in pain, Luo Cheng couldn't bear it.

"Miss?" Mo Qingchen whispered worriedly, Luo Cheng's pale face was regarded as the result of overwork, and he stretched out his hands to support Luo Cheng's arms, "Take a break."

"No, I'm not tired." Luo Cheng took a deep breath, "Qingchen, help me give Xiao Wudi a word."

"Have Xiao Wudi order to tear down the bamboo fences at every house in the city, and then cut down the bamboo poles and carry them to the top of the city to defend against falling rocks from thunderbolt carts!"

Bamboo is the most abundant plant in Lieshan Town. Every resident will plant a few sticks of bamboo in the yard, and even use bamboo to weave a bamboo fence around the yard.These bamboo fences are quite densely spaced, full of elasticity, have a good rebound effect, and are simple, light, and easy to disassemble.After a while, the soldiers had moved all the bamboo fences and bamboo poles to the top of the city.

"Can these bamboos be useful?" Xiao Wudi asked suspiciously.

Mo Qingchen glanced at Xiao Wudi and didn't speak. Xiao Wudi could see his dissatisfaction with him from Lixue Ningshuang's eyes, because he doubted Luo Cheng's words.

Xiao Wudi sighed, in such a situation, a dead horse can only be treated as a living horse doctor.Deep down in his heart, Xiao Wudi still hoped that this method would work, that his soldiers would not be wasted anymore.

Just after the bamboo fence was set up, the Perak chariots under the city launched another round of offensive.The Liao army pulled the rope, and there was a loud bang, and the iron and wooden pestles of hundreds of Thunderbolt chariots flipped continuously. In an instant, dust billowed, and countless stones, big and small, flew straight to the top of the city.

All the soldiers on the city wall of Lieshan Town were pale, their limbs were weak, and almost lost the power to resist. They watched the stone fall and waited for the fate of being crushed to death by the stone.In the first two rounds of attacks, they were already terrified.

Xiao Wudi's eyes were almost protruding from their sockets, staring at the bigger and bigger stones, he couldn't help but pray that Luo Cheng's method would work.

Finally, the stone fell, and the bamboo fence erected at the top of the city also came into play.The stone fell on the fence, was immediately ejected by the elasticity of the bamboo, and rolled down to the bottom of the city wall. Instead, it smashed the Liao army's head and blood, making them cry for their fathers and mothers.

"Successful!" Xiao Wudi hit his right fist with his left palm and shouted happily.

"Great!" Song Jun cheered happily, they were no longer afraid of Liao Jun's thunderbolt chariot.

"Mr. Mo, thank Doctor Luo for me." Xiao Wudi said happily, for more than half a month, he had never laughed so freely.I didn't expect that the bamboo fences that are common everywhere in Lieshan Town can play a huge role in resisting the attack of the thunderbolt car, which is really incredible.In this way, Lieshan Town is sure to defend for a longer period of time, waiting for the reinforcements from the imperial court to arrive.

"..." Mo Qingchen nodded, turned and left.

"It's so cold!" Seeing Mo Qingchen's leaving back, Xiao Wudi muttered, beckoned to Liu Lianer, and gave him a few words in a low voice.

Luo Cheng had just bandaged the wound of a wounded man and rubbed his temples. His high concentration resulted in a headache.

"Doctor Luo, Doctor Luo."

"What's the matter?" Luo Cheng turned around and found that the person who called her was neither from the military medical camp nor the wounded, but a young man dressed as a servant. Looking at his clothes, he should be from the general's mansion.

The young man bowed to Luo Cheng, and said, "Doctor Luo, my fourth aunt is not feeling well, please come and treat her."

"Fourth concubine? General Xiao's fourth concubine?" Luo Cheng frowned and asked.

The youth replied, "Yes."

"Why is your fourth aunt uncomfortable?"

"Fourth aunt wakes up too early in the morning with weakness in her limbs and dizzy hair, but she has typhoid fever." The young man replied.

"You do know some medical principles. Since you know that Fourth Aunt has typhoid fever, you can prescribe some medicine for her. Why bother looking for me." Luo Cheng said flatly.

"No!" Luo Cheng said directly, "I still have to treat the wounded soldiers, so I don't have time to go to the general's mansion. The fourth aunt is just a minor illness, and you, a person with 'some medical skills', should be able to cure her. "

Pingping stared at the man in front of him, with an ordinary appearance and a humble attitude, but Luo Cheng always felt that there was a sense of disobedience when looking at him, as if what he saw was not his true face.

Luo Cheng thought of the strange poison that the third concubine had been poisoned by, his eyes flashed, and he was afraid that he would not be able to get away from this person.As the saying goes, "Doctors and poisons don't separate families", as far as his poisoning ability is concerned, this person's medical skills are probably not low, but I don't know why he would hide in the general's mansion as a servant?I don't know what his plan is.

"Doctor Luo, how can these wounded soldiers compare with Fourth Aunt?" the man said dissatisfied.

"Why can't it be compared? These people were injured to defend Lieshan Town. In my eyes, they are much more important than Fourth Aunt. Without their bloody battles, Fourth Aunt can still stay in the General's Mansion safely. For a little Are you making a fuss out of a minor ailment?" Luo Cheng refused coldly, "You go, I have to continue working!"

"Doctor Luo, the entire Lieshan Town is under the control of the general. If the fourth aunt tells the general that you refuse to treat her, do you think the general will spare you? Don't toast and refuse to eat, you will be punished!"

"Who are you going to drink as a fine, An Ming?"
