Chapter 98 Siege
For these people, maybe I can do more!

Luo Cheng looked around, and although everyone was exhausted and wounded, the expressions on their faces were extremely determined, and their eyes were full of determination to protect their homeland.Luo Cheng was infected by everyone's emotions!

By the time Luo Cheng and Xiao Wudi sat down face to face, nearly an hour had passed.

"General Xiao, what do you want from me?"

"Doctor Luo, I don't like to beat around the bush. To put it bluntly, I hope you can help me defend the city." Xiao Wudi stared at Luo Cheng and made his request directly.

Luo Cheng froze for a moment. Although she decided to do something, she was still surprised and unbelievable when the supreme leader of Lieshan Town asked her face to face.

"I'm just a doctor." Luo Cheng said flatly.

"Doctor Luo's ability is outstanding, not only in terms of medical skills, but all of us have seen it with our eyes. The idea of ​​using bamboo fences to smash the thunderbolt chariots of the Liao army is beyond the imagination of ordinary people," Xiao Wudi stared at Luo Cheng closely, " Doctor Luo, get rid of it and help us, Lieshan Town has reached the moment of life and death!"

After finishing speaking, Xiao Wudi stood up and knelt down on one knee for Luo Cheng.

Luo Cheng hurriedly jumped to the side, "General Xiao, you killed Luo Cheng by doing this."

"Doctor Luo, I just want to express my determination to seek talents."

"You don't have to be like this, General, Luo Cheng will do his best to help you." Luo Cheng rolled her eyes inwardly, and was a little dissatisfied with Xiao Wudi's tricks on her, but since she promised him, then try to help him!In Luo Cheng's thinking, she was not helping Xiao Wudi, but helping the soldiers and civilians in the entire Lieshan Town.

Xiao Wudi stood up in satisfaction, seeing Luo Cheng's slightly depressed expression, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

"Doctor Luo, let's discuss the defense of Lieshan Town now..." Xiao Wudi called several of his lieutenants into the command post and began to discuss how to deal with the next round of Liao army's attack.

Several lieutenants have long known from Xiao Wudi that the expert who instructed them to use the bamboo fence to break the thunderbolt car is Luo Cheng, and has a very good attitude towards her, and will not neglect her because she is a young girl, even Mo Qing Chen Du was allowed to stay at the command post and listen to their discussions on how to defend against the enemy and other confidential matters.This made Luo Cheng feel less dissatisfied.

After midnight, the lieutenants walked out of the command post with satisfaction, and arranged according to the discussed strategy.Only Xiao Wudi, Liu Lianer, Luo Cheng and Mo Qingchen were left in the command post.

Luo Cheng covered his mouth with his left hand and yawned slightly.

"Sorry, the discussion is so late," Xiao Wudi was in high spirits, too excited to sleep. Many of the measures Luo Cheng proposed just now were very useful and could help them reduce the casualties of their own troops while repelling enemy attacks.In this way, their confidence in defending the city increased.

"If you're sleepy, go back and rest!"

Luo Cheng shook his head, took out four sour plums from his belt and distributed them to the other three.After Mo Qingchen got it, he threw it directly into his storage belt. Xiao Wudi and Liu Lianer took the green plum and looked at it for a long time in confusion. There are still green plums in this season?Is it Ome?Isn't it other fruits that look like green plums?

Liu Lian-er put the fruit into his mouth hesitantly, and bit it hard, oh~, by the Patriarch of Sanqing, it was so sour, his teeth were about to be soured!Liu Lianer covered his cheeks and looked at Luo Cheng with lingering fear.

Luo Cheng looked back innocently.

Liu Lian-er turned his gaze away, forget it, although he was so sour, it did have a vicious refreshing effect, at least his drowsiness was gone.

Xiao Wudi immediately put the fruit into his sleeves, thankful that he didn't eat it, otherwise, his beautiful teeth would be lost.

"General Xiao, I want something, can you prepare it for me?" Luo Cheng said.

"Just mention anything you need, and I'll send someone to deliver it to you." Xiao Wudi said generously.

Luo Cheng smiled and said, "It's not something expensive, as long as charcoal powder, saltpeter and sulfur are enough, the more the better."

"Charcoal powder, saltpeter, um, what is sulfur?" Xiao Wudi repeated the name of the material and asked in confusion.

Is there no sulfur in the dry continent?Luo Cheng tilted his head and thought about it, and then changed the way of saying, "Sulfur is green vitriol, which should be sold in pharmacies. It is used to treat wind and cold, and it can also nourish fire, help yang and laxative."

"Doctor Luo want to refine new medicine?" Xiao Wudi asked.

"Yes, I want to develop a new drug." Luo Cheng smiled slightly, shining like stars in the sky.

The judges must have guessed it, yes, Luo Cheng wants to make gunpowder.On Earth, gunpowder appeared in the history of Huaguo very early. In the late Tang Dynasty (904-906), gunpowder was used in warfare, such as gunpowder arrows. One of them was called "Flying Fire". The weapon is to use a trebuchet to throw gunpowder packets as an incendiary weapon.In the Song Dynasty, Kaifeng Prefecture, Tokyo (now Kaifeng, Henan Province) opened Guangbei Siege Works, including a department for the production of gunpowder. The book "Wu Jing Zong Yao" records three formulas of gunpowder, and the production of gunpowder has reached a considerable scale.In the Southern Song Dynasty, the use of gunpowder became more and more common, and firearms were further developed. Firearms such as Thunderbolt Cannon, Artillery, Rocket, and Shenhuo Flying Crow appeared one after another.Unfortunately, when it was passed down to the Qing Dynasty, because the emperor of the Qing Dynasty did not pay much attention to firearms and closed the country, the rapid development of firearms in the West led to the rapid development of firearms in the West, and finally entered the capital of China with improved firearms.It is indeed the greatest shame in the history of China.

Luo Cheng naturally also knew the formula of ancient gunpowder, but she had never practiced it. She didn't know whether she could prepare gunpowder, nor how effective the gunpowder she prepared was.Therefore, she decided to give the gunpowder to Xiao Wudi after the experiment yielded results.

Xiao Wudi's speed was very fast, and the next morning, the things Luo Cheng wanted were delivered to her room.However, in terms of quantity...

Daniel scratched the top of his head, and said embarrassedly, "Doctor Luo, the general told us to do our best to find these three things for you, but charcoal and saltpeter are okay, that green alum is simply too rare, we took the whole town Only so many pharmacies can find it!"

"Thank you!" Luo Cheng dejectedly dismissed the soldiers who brought materials from Daniel, looking at the hill-like piles of charcoal and saltpeter in the yard, and seeing that there was only one basket of green alum on the table, Luo Cheng sighed. .Hey, Goldfinger or something, I can't count on it!

The Liao army attacked Lieshan Town for a long time, and Yeluguang, as the commander, was furious. He ordered [-] elite soldiers to attack Lieshan Town himself.In front of the team, there are countless ladders.At this time, gunpowder and firearms had not yet been invented (Luo Cheng wanted to make them, but unfortunately the conditions did not allow it), and the main tool for siege was the ladder.The structure of the Liaoyuan State Cloud Ladder is simple. The ladder is nailed to a wooden board, and there are four wheels beside the wooden board. It is equipped with anti-shield, winch, grapple and other appliances.Each ladder was pushed and pulled by more than a dozen healthy soldiers, approaching the city wall, and other soldiers swarmed up, moving quickly.

Yeluguang gave an order, and there was a rumble in the Liao army. In a moment, hundreds of ladder trucks lined up and rushed towards the city.

Standing behind Xiao Wudi, Li Duidang, one of Xiao Wudi's lieutenants, watched the Liao army's ladder car approaching Lieshan Town like a storm, and said worriedly, "General, the Liao army is unstoppable. I'm afraid this battle will not be good. beat."

Xiao Wudi glanced at the city, and comforted Li Tuidang, "Don't worry, didn't we make perfect arrangements? We won't let Liaogou succeed."

He glanced towards the direction of the military medical camp, and all the precautionary measures were implemented in accordance with Luo Cheng's suggestion.It's a pity, if she were a man, I would definitely recommend her to the imperial court!

In just a few words, the Liao army's ladder carts had been pushed under the city wall, horns were sounded both above and below the city, and the fierce battle officially began.

As soon as the ladder leaned against the city wall, the soldiers of the Liao army rushed to climb up the wall.The first batch of Liao army soldiers were about to climb the wall, Xiao Wudi waved his right hand, and a strange scene appeared on the top of Lieshan Town.

I saw that an iron net had been erected on the city wall.This iron net is about 1.5 meters high, with a grid spacing of [-] centimeters, and it is covered with iron thorns and nails. People cannot pass through the middle, but it cannot prevent weapons such as swords, guns, swords and halberds from being assassinated from the inside.

This is one of the defensive measures Luo Cheng proposed to Xiao Wudi. She asked Xiao Wudi to gather all the blacksmiths in the town, and confiscated all the iron wire, copper wire and lead wire in the town, and started working overnight to weave a huge iron net. .Many people don't understand Luo Cheng's intentions. Now, barbed wire fences have been erected on top of the city, one after another, like countless iron fences covering the walls.In a blink of an eye, the entire city of Lieshan Town was wrapped in iron nets.

Many people saw such a scene and were confused. Both the Song Army and the Liao Army were shocked when they saw the series of barbed wire fences. They didn't understand why the Song Army had such a skill, until the Liao Army climbed up to the top of the city along the ladder truck. The barbed wire began to exert its power.

Originally, the Liao soldiers were scrambling to climb up the ladder bravely, but when the barbed wire was pulled up, it seemed to correspond to an idiom - the net of heaven and earth. Although the Liao soldiers were as agile as apes, they climbed to the top of the ladder under the cover of shields and iron armor. But it was blocked by barbed wire and could not climb to the top of the city.On the other hand, the Song army kept throwing stones and arrows from the mesh, and the arrows and stones flew down like rain.The Liao army could not jump to the top of the city, and lacked defense, they immediately rolled down like dumplings in a soup pot.In just one stick of incense, seven or eight thousand of the [-] Liao troops lost their lives.Under the city wall of Lieshan Town, corpses piled up like mountains.

Yeluguang saw that the situation was not good, and immediately ordered the archers to shoot arrows towards the city, but the Song army set up a shield, and the Liao army's arrows did not hit the Song army, but injured their own people.For a time, the number of casualties of the Liao army doubled.
