However, he didn't know that the catapult was extremely important. He carefully supported Helian Manqiu as she got up.

"Hiss …"

Helian Manqiu sucked in a cold breath of air. It was so painful. Her whole body was aching, especially her wounds. The pain was unbearable. Cold sweat oozed out of his body, and he couldn't help but clench his fists.

The generals' eyes showed shame and heartache. As generals, they wanted their general's daughter, a girl, to help them defend the city.

Especially this girl. She was someone who had almost been killed and was currently bedridden.

Although they could not bear to do so, no one spoke as they stared at Helian Manqiu.

Every day, they would passively and expressionlessly hold on. They all knew in their hearts that it might be a few days later, or it might be tomorrow, or it might even be tonight that the Military Region would be breached.

The enemy's siege equipment was constantly being brought in, and they used up as little as possible.

The reinforcements from the enemy troops were also rushing towards the military region. They were unwilling to give up, and even if the military region was breached, it would still be breached by a hero like Gan Jianxuan.

All the generals were guilty of exterminating the Nine Clans. This cruel decree made the military state as one.

Only thirty thousand soldiers were defending this place, but it had been delayed by half a month to fight against two hundred thousand soldiers.

Helian Manqiu sat up and carefully circled the stone throwing machine a few times. She revealed a contemplative expression.

The gazes of the surrounding people contained some anticipation, but most of them were filled with doubt and curiosity.

After all, in their eyes, Helian Manqiu was only fourteen years old and still a young girl. No matter how smart she was, it was impossible for her to know much about city guards and military strategies, let alone the imperial court's secret catapult.

"Young General, the wind is strong here, you should return to the manor first."

"No need, just prepare a tent for me. I'll temporarily rest here and tell you how to make those things. When people come over, bring them to modify the catapult."

The generals hesitated for a moment before saying, "Young General, you've troubled yourself. You're severely injured, you shouldn't be toiling here. The duty of defending the city is to wait for the final general. It's actually Young General Lao who's dragged his injured body to come up with an idea."

A confident smile appeared on Helian Man's face as she drew a beautiful crescent moon-like curve with her lips. The surrounding generals were stunned.

From the looks of the surrounding generals, she could feel that her current appearance should be quite deadly. Otherwise, these uncles wouldn't have revealed their werewolf potential to a young general.

"Brothers, you are all very tired. Send a few people to keep watch and let us all rest. I think the enemy troops are also very tired. They have suffered heavy losses, so they should be able to be a bit more quiet." "Keep a close watch on the enemy troops. Tell them to get up if there is any movement."

The generals were touched, the soldiers were also touched. The young general was willing to call them "brothers", all the soldiers looked at Helian Manqiu on the sickbed with admiration.

"My current appearance can't be that everyone loves me, that the flowers are blooming and the fishes fall to the ground, right?"

She raised her hand and gently caressed her face. This skin was as smooth and tender as an egg that had just been cooked. No matter what her appearance was, just this skin could be said to be made of jade and ice.

His hands were slender and delicate, like bamboo shoots or green onions. It was just that they were lacking in beauty. His slender and soft hands were not the jade white color that he should have in his impression, but ivory. There were even many calluses on his hands.

"It seems that Helian Manqiu's hands are on par with mine. They are both martial artists. They are behind the family of generals."

Sighing, his identity after transcending over matched well with his previous life. He was from the same military family as his previous life, and he was the same as the wild girl.

"Yes, this lowly one will arrange it right away. Miss, please use the general's tent. Does the young general have any other orders?"

Tao Zheng's face turned red unnaturally.

"Let's hurry up with the production of those items and split them among the four gates. I heard that the east gate isn't too tight, am I right?"

"Outside the east gate, there are only the subordinates of Marquis Qing Tian. They didn't attack the city, but instead came to harass us at night. It's most likely a bluff, so it's the easiest."

"The easiest?"

All of the generals lowered their heads in silence.

The city walls were bustling with activity, the workplaces were bustling with activity. The machines that Helian Manqiu had told them about were out every second. Everyone knew that the military city had reached its most critical moment and was almost breached last night.

Their subordinates showed no mercy. If they were to attack, the entire military region would definitely be ravaged.

Everyone in the military state was prepared. Not only the men, but even the women were ready to fight.

What did it mean to have a worried expression on his face? In front of Helian Manqiu, he didn't need to hide his worries and worries. This young and extraordinary woman, upon seeing this tragic state, did not mourn nor panic nor did she feel surprised. Her calmness and calmness was so different from that of ordinary people, and many of the experienced generals were inferior to her.

Her wondrous methods and tactics were like those of someone with military authority, proficient in military books and books. Only a knowledgeable person would be able to come up with such an ingenious plan?

"All of these were picked out by the young general." All of these were picked out by the young general.

"You have come to meet the young general. This is the young lord of the garrison, the son of the general of Fringe City, the young general as well."

Everyone was secretly praising him. This young general's beauty surpassed even that of a beautiful woman. It was truly as the legends said; he was as beautiful as jade.

"This commoner pays his respects to the young general."

"There's no need to be so polite. Because I've injured the spies in the city, I can only lie here and talk to everyone."

Fortunately, his throat was in pain, so his voice was hoarse and low. No one could make out his original voice, not to mention that Helian Manqiu's voice was originally low and deep. Therefore, no one doubted him.

"Everyone, the situation of the Military Region is urgent. We have to trouble everyone to do our best to protect the Military Region. "Please listen to my command, and don't allow the fresh-looking barbarians to take even a single step into the military region!"

"Yes, I will follow the young general's instructions."

Everyone said the same thing. They all knew that the low and fresh were cruel and easy to kill. Which family didn't have a wife, children, or a wife?

Tao Zheng walked over: "The things that the young general wants have been prepared, and the firecrackers and gunpowder have also been delivered. I don't know how to handle them, young general?"

Helian Manqiu's eyes lit up. With gunpowder, things would be much easier. He beckoned Tao Zheng to come close to him, grabbed him by the collar, and whispered in his ear.

A flush rose to Tao Zheng's face, a warm breath in his ear, an itch in his mood. A faint and indistinct fragrance seeped into his nostrils, causing his blood to boil.

Others might not know Helian Manqiu's identity, but he had already seen through it. Being so close to Helian Manqiu at such a close distance, this posture and distance was somewhat ambiguous.

"Hur hur, since you've heard it clearly, then go and do it. I'll be there in a while."

"This lowly general obeys."

Tao Zheng's face turned even redder as he hastily bowed and retreated.

Helian Manqiu looked at Tao Zhaoying's handsome face and could not help but laugh. Ancient men really loved to be shy.
