Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At 4 p.m, when the Jin soldiers began a new round of siege, the soldiers on the city wall used bows and catapults to block as much as possible. Mu Yangling stood on the city wall and gestured for the people behind to open the lime packets and throw them out.

Although those hooligans often fought to extort people, they had never killed anyone. As soon as they came up, they saw arrows flying all over the place.

They even saw a soldier get pierced by arrows and falling at their feet right in front of them, his eyes still wide open. Because the wound of the arrow was small, although it had injured the soldier’s vital points, he did not die immediately. He even struggled to stand up to reach the bow and arrow beside him, but blood kept gushing out of his chest and mouth before he fell to the ground…

The military doctor behind carried the person down, but they knew that they could not save him. How could he still be alive after being shot through the heart?

The hooligans and guards’ enthusiasm was doused. Mu Yangling roared, “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and attack! Are you waiting for them to kill their way up the city wall?”

One of those people came back to his senses and hurriedly bent down to grab a lime packet before throwing it out. Mu Yangling widened her eyes and glared at him. “Open the slipknot, open the slipknot. It’s not enough to just grab a packet and throw it out!”

Those people opened the slipknots with trembling hands and threw them out. The lime packets drew a beautiful parabola in the air and scattered in all directions. As the lime fell into their eyes, the Jin soldiers couldn’t help but cry out. Since they were already within range and couldn’t see, they could only cover their heads and rush forward to open a path for their companions or

retreat…

Tudan snapped the arrow in his hand in anger and said hatefully, “The cunning and weak Han people actually thought of such a sinister method. Last night, they only threw lime at the warriors on the scaling ladder. Now, they actually threw lime down…”

“General, tell everyone to lower their heads and don’t look up as they charge forward. Same for the soldiers on the scaling ladder. Order them to lower their heads as much as possible…”

“Bullsh*t. How are they going to shoot arrows if they lower our heads? How are they going to attack the city gate tower if they lower their heads?” Tudan shouted angrily, but he had no better way. Looking at the soldiers being sent back continuously, he could only order everyone to lower their heads as they charge forward. This way, there would be fewer arrows shot at the city gate tower.

One had to know that it was not enough to wash away the lime in their eyes. Even if they used medicine, the affected soldier would not be able to go into battle in a short period of time. Furthermore, they did not have medicines on them. Who would have thought that the damned Han Chinese would be so shameless?

Mu Yangling also pulled a bow. Every time, she would fire three arrows at the same time. She would stand in front of the guards and hooligans and shoot. When those people saw that Mu Yangling, who was just a young lady, was so brave in killing the enemy and that the soldiers on the city wall were either injured or dead, they would not retreat unless they were seriously injured. For a moment, they felt ashamed…

A guard picked up the bow and arrow that had fallen to the ground and shot out an arrow first. With the first arrow, there would be a second…

The hooligans gritted their teeth and kept throwing the lime packets out. As the situation got some relief, the battalion commander following Mu Shi heaved a sigh of relief and said in a low voice, “Battalion Commander Mu, your daughter’s idea is good. Everyone should be able to rest tonight.” ■■But tomorrow’s attack will probably be even more intense.” Mu Shi said, “Go and order them to bury the pot and make rice now. Go to the city and find a butcher for me. Add as much meat as you can. Start preparing tomorrow morning’s meat buns now.”

The battalion commander also knew that since the Jin soldiers couldn’t take down the city today. Having suffered such a loss in silence, they would definitely go crazy tomorrow. Therefore, he really didn’t know if everyone could survive tomorrow.

Since that was the case, there was no need to save. He turned around and asked the logistics team to take the money to buy meat, so that everyone could have a good meal tonight.contemporary romance

Not only were there soldiers on the city gate tower, but there were also commoners who came to help. The injured soldiers were carried down by the commoners. There were also bows, arrows, stones, and other things that needed their help to transport up the city gate tower.

As the base camp of the West Camp was here, there were enough supplies even though there wasn’t much of anything else here. Therefore, Mu Shi waved his hand and ordered his men to prepare food for all the people who came to help. Yes, the ones who cooked were also the commoners, because the soldiers in charge of cooking had also gone up the city gate tower.

Only then did Mu Shi see that there were more than 30 large pots boiling water in the two rows below. That kind of large pot could boil 20 to 30 barrels of water. Mu Shi had never seen such a pot, but he had heard that some large clans would use such pots when they gathered for dinner during the New Year. Also, some rich families would serve porridge to the less fortunate using such pots.

At the side, many commoners carried out large pots that they used to boil water at home and busied themselves at the side. Those pots could only hold two to three buckets of water. These pots were what they used at home to boil water for a bath.

Mu Shi pointed at them in surprise and asked, “What are they doing?” He didn’t remember moving the kitchen here. Most importantly, there was no need to boil so much water to cook, right?

The guard said, “Miss ordered us to do this. I don’t understand either. When Mu Shi heard that it was his daughter who ordered it, his frown gradually relaxed. Other than being a little rash sometimes, his daughter rarely caused trouble.

Mu Shi looked up and saw Wu Jin entangled with the servants at home. He roared, “Go back and tell my father that if I’m not going back. If he comes looking for me again, I-I’ll shout.”

The servant did not understand Young Master’s words, but seeing his blood-red eyes, he did not dare to forcefully drag him back. He could only panic. “Young Master, please take pity on us and come back with us.” Mu Shi came over with a dark expression and asked, “What’s going on?” When the servant saw Mu Shi, he immediately trembled and hurriedly lowered his head before standing to the side. However, Wu Jin seemed to have seen his savior and quickly hid behind Mu Shi. He said, “Battalion Commander Mu, Miss Mu asked me to help. It’s just that my father is worried about me, so he wants to drag me back home.”

Mu Shi nodded slightly and said to the servant, “Go back and tell your master that Young Master Wu is a good person. Since he has the intention, let him stay. As long as the city’s defenses hold up, he will be fine.”

The servant could only go back with a long face.

Wu Jin became happy. “Battalion Commander Mu, what do you think I can do?” How could Mu Shi know what he could do? He said, “Do whatever Ah Ling wants you to do.”

“Miss Mu only asked me to be in charge of these people who boil water, but there’s no need for that at all. I just have to arrange it. Look, now that I’m free, what can I do? Just instruct me.”

Mu Shi thought for a moment and said, “Then help me get more people to carry the bows, swords, and spears in the storeroom up the city tower. Leave them in the building on the left. We’ll use them tomorrow.”

“You’re only using them tomorrow? Does that mean the other party won’t attack tonight?”

“We’ll see,” Mu Shi said vaguely and turned to go to the kitchen.

Since the attack on the city gate tower had already stopped, everyone sat on the ground to rest. Mu Yangling checked everyone’s wounds and counted the number of people.

She also knew that everyone would probably be able to rest tonight, but they had to be on guard against the other party’s surprise attack. Moreover, she was afraid that no one would be able to rest tomorrow and had to be on the city wall at all times.

After the food was ready, everyone took turns eating. Mu Yangling and the rest were the last batch to eat. Mu Shi scooped a big bowl for his daughter and sighed. “You shouldn’t have come. I wonder how your mother and the others are doing now.”

“Father, don’t worry. Song Zhi is a man of his word. As long as his family is safe, our family will be safe.” Mu Yangling ate.

Looking at Mu Yangling’s bowl and then at his own, Wu Jin was slightly speechless.

Mu Shi looked at his daughter and pondered. Mu Yangling looked up and asked, “Father, why are you looking at me?”

“Ah Ling, if I lure the enemy leader out, how confident are you in killing him?
