The morning sun shined on the walls of the city. The city was dyed red with blood. The whole city seemed to be dyed red by the blood, turning it into a city of blood.

Sunlight enveloped the Bloody City. This blood had the blood of the enemies and the warriors of the military region.

Helian Manqiu rubbed her head, "Uncle Yi, please prepare some white spirit wine and some salt water as well as some clean white cloth and cotton. The wounded soldiers shall be wiped clean with white wine and salt water. Even if there is no medicine, a clean white cloth will help them to recover. "

"Yes, Miss."

At this moment, the generals looked at Helian Manqiu with a whole new level of respect. Just now, Helian Manqiu had come up with a few ideas in succession, which forced them to pay close attention to them.

"Eber, there should be some lime here, right? What's the bond between the brick and the building?"

"Lime and clay."

"Find some lime and clay."

Tao Zheng and He looked at each other, but didn't ask for a reason. What was the use of it? Tao Chen glanced at each other, and the leader beside him rushed down to take care of it.

"Those planks, covered with clay and added with grass, are to be used as a battlements to block arrows, so that many of the arrows of the enemy can be collected. "In addition, you can also use some wooden planks and nail them into long nails. They can be used to make wooden boards, and then fixed in four corners with ropes. They can be used to throw and injure the enemy."

"Understood."

Several of the surrounding generals said in unison as they hurried to find someone to prepare the pill.

"When the lime is delivered and the poison is added, the boiling water will be used to splash out the enemies. The effect should be pretty good."

Several generals looked at Helian Manqiu with worshipful eyes. This move was too ruthless. Lime could have hurt people anyway. With the poison added on top of the boiling water, it was simply a deadly weapon.

"That's right, don't forget about the nails on the nails. They can be used to soak in the lime water."

"Young General, if you are in charge of defending the city, then whoever meets you will be in trouble."

Tao Zheng spoke out the words that were in everyone's heart. The way they looked at Helian Manqiu became more and more fervent. It was as if an old virgin man, who had spent his entire life alone, had seen the Seven Fairies.

"Young General, tell us your good idea." If only you had thought of this way, our brothers wouldn't have died so many times. Last night, we nearly had the Imperial Capital destroyed several times. "

"Let me think. Don't rush me."

Helian Manqiu closed her eyes and thought about what other methods she could use to defend the city.

"There's …"

She asked half a question. Originally, she wanted to ask if there was a catapult machine and if the red-clothed cannon was the best, but she didn't dare to ask. If there was no such thing in this foreign world's ancient era, then it would be suspicious.

"What kind of defensive equipment do you all have? What's the most powerful one?"

"The catapult, the crossbow, and the crossbow have all been destroyed, and the crossbow have been exhausted."

Helian Manqiu nodded. It seemed like she had been defending the city for more than half a month.

"Is there any bamboo board here? Or is it a thin, flexible iron board?"

"The Military Region is located in the north. There is no bamboo here, nor is there any iron wall."

"There must be a little tree, right? "You can also have cow skin."

"That's true, what's the use of young generals?"

"Do you have firecrackers in the Military Region?"

"Yes, there are shops in the city that buy this."

"How did you make the firecrackers here?"

However, his gaze was deep as he stared at Helian Manqiu: "I remember that Miss used to love setting off firecrackers."

"I … Although little sister likes to set off firecrackers, I don't know how to make them."

Helian Manqiu did not forget that at this moment, she was Helian Qingyu. She was no longer Helian Manqiu.

Helian Manqiu calmly replied. She knew that the question she had just asked might have aroused some suspicion. Although the body and the face were Helian Manqiu's, the soul had nothing in common with them.

It was like using milk to make a box filled with honey. Although it didn't look like anything out of the ordinary, if someone was careful, they would be able to see the minute differences. She was very familiar with Helian Manqiu. Perhaps she had already sensed something from her previous plans and questions.

"It's made from saltpeter and sulfur, inside a bamboo tube."

Helian Manqiu did not know how to make firecrackers. She did not know if it was appropriate, but Helian Manqiu had asked if there were firecrackers in the Military Region.

"Bring all of the firecrackers, preferably the materials needed to make the firecrackers. Bring the saltpeter and sulfur compound that caused the firecrackers to explode. Also, invite the craftsmen that made the firecrackers as well. I have great use for them."

"Young General, would you like to rest for a bit?"

What he was most worried about was still Helian Manqiu's body, which he had invited Lu Keyu over to treat Helian Manqiu's injuries. He also wanted to ask Lu Keyu about Helian Manqiu's injuries and the reason for her sudden soul awakening.

Helian Manqiu shook her head. She lay on the stretcher without moving. Her body was no longer in pain. The faint pain from her wounds was still tormenting her.

Fortunately, she was born into a military family, so she was able to endure these hardships while she was in the army.

He lifted his hand to wipe the cold sweat from the pain, "I have nothing to do, hurry and prepare what I want. Make more grass men, and support them with wooden frames in the middle. Also, isn't there a catapult and a bed crossbow? "Bring me over there to take a look.

He didn't intend to just wave his hand and let someone carry Helian Manqiu to the catapult and the bed crossbow. Because the city was being guarded in a rush and had used too many times, all of these things had already been scrapped. Another reason was that his attacks had been damaged and could no longer be used.

On the stretcher, Helian Manqiu circled the catapult and the bed crossbow a few times. She stretched out her hand to touch it and found that the bed crossbow was extremely heavy and had basically no repair value.

When he looked at the catapult, he could only shake his head. It seemed that this place was an era of cold weapons, and the weapons were still lagging behind. The catapult and the crossbow were both heavy and crude.

"The catapult can be repaired. Forget about the bed crossbow. Without the crossbow, it is useless even if it is repaired. And it's too heavy, Tao Zheng. Are all the catapults here? "

Upon hearing that the catapult could be repaired, the eyes of the generals emitted a faint red light, just like the evil spirits of hell, fiercely staring at Helian Manqiu.

The red light was because these people had endured for too long, their eyes already bloodshot.

They all knew that if the catapult was repaired properly, it would be much easier to defend the city, and the casualties among the soldiers would be reduced as well.

"Young General, can we repair it?"

"We can repair it. Who's in charge of repairing the catapult? Do you have any blueprints?"

Tao Zheng forced a smile and said: "Once the damage of the catapult is too great, there will be no repair value and it will not be repaired well." There aren't any blueprints either. These blueprints were all left behind in the past. They are the secret blueprints made by the imperial government, so how could we have them? "If it were not for the fact that the stone throwing machine is so precious, I would have used it to smash the barbarian."
