Chapter 1621 Siege the City, Massive Attack [3]
Gao Lei laughed when he heard this and asked, "Don't you, the prefect, want to wait until all the medicinal materials are used up before sending them? That would delay the preparation of the medicine and kill many innocent soldiers, civilians and officials' family members."
It would be nice to give you insect attractant, but you still want to make use of our medicinal materials for free? What a sweet dream!
The words "military, civilian, official and family" shocked Magistrate Hao's heart. He hated himself for asking something he shouldn't have asked. He said, "The medicinal materials will be sent as soon as possible."
After saying that, he left quickly.
Niu DaBao only met Kuang and several Jin once. After knowing that they were all well, he hurried to defend the city.
Before leaving, he thanked Gao Lei: "Thank you for being here, thank you very much."
Gao Lei said: "You are working hard for the people in the city, so I will naturally take good care of your families. But as for the insect trap prescription, you need to work harder to let the soldiers know who gave them the credit." good."
Niu Dabao was not stupid. After hearing this, he said honestly: "Don't worry, old lady. Old Niu is very good at the job of raising his voice."
but……
Niu Dabao looked around, and after seeing that they were all members of the Gao Lei family, he asked quietly: "Old madam, has the letter over there been delivered? Are reinforcements coming?"
Although the Eagle Food Gang is relatively innocent, it is a gang after all, and it is still a gang that is working against the imperial court. Even if he helped send a rescue letter this time, as a military attache of the imperial court, he could not make any noise about it, even on the surface. It can only be said to be a letter asking for help sent by someone from the Lei family caravan.
Gao Lei said: "They are better at doing things than us. The letter must have been delivered, but we don't know when the reinforcements will come."
The generals of other Fucheng camps have their own cities to defend, and they have to consider how many troops they send to rescue them and how many troops they send to rescue them.
Niu Dabao was disappointed when he heard that, he glanced outside the door again, and said in a lower voice: "The Rong people have been just feinting for the past few days. They must have wanted to wait for the poisonous insect disease to break out in the city before they could attack Xing'an Mansion in one fell swoop. If they knew Now that we have insect traps, this poisonous insect disease will not break out. I am afraid that we will stop the feint attack and directly attack Xing'an Mansion."
He added: "The strength of the Rong people has been increasing in the past few days. Previously, there were only more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, but now there are more than 40,000."
In short, the situation is very unfavorable for Xing'an Prefecture. If the reinforcements do not come, Xing'an Prefecture will be destroyed and the people will be massacred!
Gao Lei frowned and asked, "I know what you're talking about. What do you want? Just tell me."
Niu Dabao paused, his face turned red and he was very ashamed, but he still looked at Gao Lei and Gu Jinli and said: "If the city is destroyed, please ask the old lady and Sanlang's wife to save my wife and children... They have suffered a lot with me. I want them alive."
Everyone has selfish motives, and so does he.
After meeting Kuang Shi, Wu Jin and the others, he felt even more sorry for them.
Sanlang left a lot of troops for the Gu family, and the Gao Lei family even had a Lei family caravan. If the city is destroyed, others may die, but they have a chance of survival, so Niu Dabao begs them.
Gao Lei frowned and wanted to scold Niu Dabao, but finally agreed: "Sure, I promise you, if the city is destroyed, I will let Master Yu and the others protect your wife and children from the city... Maybe I can't protect you, I won't I can guarantee it, so you’d better defend the city.”
However, without reinforcements, how can we defend with just over 2,000 troops? Not enough for the soldiers to kill.
However, Niu Dabao didn't say these words out loud. He was a soldier and said that these things would affect morale too much. Finally, he cupped his fists and saluted and said, "I will remember the old lady's words and leave."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Before going out, he caught a glimpse of Mr. Kuang holding the hardware, while Bao Fukang, the child, was holding Qijin and following him with Liujin.
Niu DaBao's eyes were red, he didn't dare to look more, and left quickly.
"Aunt Lei, I'm going to make medicine." Gu Jinli, who had been working on the background board, said.
Gao Lei glanced at her: "There are so many people, you don't need to get involved."
Then he asked strangely: "Looking at how calm you are, are you not worried about the Qin family boy at all?"
Gu Jinli was wronged: "Worry, how can you not worry. But worrying is useless and affects your mood. Instead of doing this, it is better not to think too much and make more poison. If the city is broken, you can kill a few more soldiers. Even if you die, you won’t lose money.”
Gao Lei was speechless, but when she looked at Gu Jinli, she looked very serious. She didn't look like she was joking. She sighed: "You can think about it. I am worried that if the city is destroyed, the families of the caravan brothers will be destroyed." What should we do?"
Gu Jinli smiled and said: "It's not that I, a junior, can think too openly, but it's better to be more open-minded than to cry."
Moreover, she has died once, and every day she lives now is in vain, that is... She and Brother Qin have only been married for a few months, and they have not even given birth to a child. It would be a pity if she really died.
She was fine when she didn't think about it, but after thinking about this, she felt bad and started to worry about Qin Sanlang...
After a while, she suppressed her uncomfortable emotions and said with a smile, "Junior is leaving."
"Wait a minute, I'll go with you. After you make the poison, give me a batch so that I can distribute it to the family members of the Lei family's caravan." Gao Lei is now following Gu Jinli, even though It was not stated clearly, but Gu Jinli knew that Gao Lei was afraid that the city would be too chaotic and her reputation would be harmed in the future, so he acted as an elder and followed her.
Gu Jinli smiled and said: "Okay, let's make lots of poison and poison the Rong people to death!"
Gao Lei laughed when she heard this. Although the two armies would be scolded for using poison in a confrontation, they were women. Do they need to make any big arguments in order to protect themselves?
No need at all, just poison the soldiers and beasts to death!
"Wujin, are you feeling better?" Gu Jinli asked Wujin, glanced at Bao Fukang, and said with a smile: "You must get better soon, or Brother Kang will cry again."
Bao Fukang's face turned red when he heard this, and he defended: "Madam, I didn't cry."
It’s not crying until the tears fall!
Gu Jinli smiled: "Okay, okay, I'm not crying, I just almost cried."
"Ah, here, Rourou~" A few months later, Qijin was able to speak. When he saw Gu Jinli, he knew that this smelly sister was a rich woman and would give him delicious food. He wanted to eat whenever he saw her.
Gu Jinli glanced at him and smiled like a spring breeze in March. He took out a candy from his purse and handed it to him: "Here, eat it, it's very sweet."
When Qijin saw the food, he was so happy that he stuffed it into his mouth. As a result, he cried out in pain: "Bah, bah, bah!"
Gao Lei looked helpless: "It's been so long and you still have time to entertain your children."
Gu Jinli said: "You have to live your life at all times. Since you are living your life, there is nothing wrong with teasing your children. Right Qijin."
"Woooooo~" Qijin ignored her and cried while hugging Bao Fukang.
The others laughed. Kuang poked Qijin's head and said, "I made you greedy. You should learn a lesson this time. Let's see if you dare to put anything in your mouth next time!"
Mrs. Han and her maid were about to come over to find Gu Jinli. When she saw this, she smiled, and her tense heart relaxed. She shouted from a distance: "Mrs. Gao, Aunt Niu, and younger sisters Qin, it turns out you are all here. Let me Easy to find.”
When he got closer, he said: "People from the two other courtyards have checked, and the women and children are fine here."
