God's Daughter, Queen of Miraculous Medicine

When Mu Yanyu saw the jade pendant, he was shocked and quickly bowed and said, "So it's a token from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I'm sorry for offending you."

Li Qiang also hurriedly bowed his head and said, "County Lady, I was reckless. I hope you will forgive me."

Lu Tingyan put away the jade pendant and said, "It's okay. The situation is tense now, so it's only right for everyone to be cautious. As long as we can defend the city and wait for reinforcements to arrive, all misunderstandings are not worth mentioning."

Mu Yanyu nodded and said, "The county lady is very understanding. Since we know that reinforcements are coming, we must strengthen our defense and not slack off in the slightest."

Everyone responded and went to make their own arrangements.

However, after Li Qiang returned to his tent, he began to make plans. He thought, "If reinforcements arrive, my plan will be ruined. No, I have to find a way to destroy their defense."

So Li Qiang secretly summoned his confidants and plotted how to create chaos before the reinforcements arrived.

As for Lu Tingyan, although she appeared calm on the surface, she was also slightly worried in her heart.

She had a clear mind and knew Li Qiang's character very well. She knew that this man had evil intentions and was definitely not a good person.

I'm afraid this restless guy will do something weird again, which will be difficult to deal with.

So, Lu Tingyan decided to go find Mu Yanyu alone.

Along the way, she walked hurriedly, secretly thinking in her heart how to explain the situation to Mu Yanyu.

When they arrived at Mu Yanyu's tent, the guards at the door hurried forward to report: "General, the county lady is here to see you!" A deep and powerful response came from inside the tent: "Come in."

Lu Tingyan took a deep breath, lifted the curtain and walked in.

Seeing the visitor, Mu Yanyu nodded slightly and said, "I wonder why the county lady has come to see me at this moment?"

Lu Tingyan bowed and said straight to the point: "General, after today's meeting, I feel that Li Qiang is very suspicious."

Mu Yanyu thought for a moment after hearing this, then shook his head and said, "Lieutenant General Li has followed me for many years and has always been loyal to me. There shouldn't be any problem."

However, Lu Tingyan continued to persuade with a firm look on her face: "General, don't take it lightly. I hope you can send someone to secretly keep an eye on Lieutenant General Li, just in case."

Mu Yanyu looked at the woman in front of him, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes, and then he nodded and said: "What you said makes sense. Since you have doubts, it's always right to be cautious."

At this time, Lu Tingyan suddenly lowered her voice and said, "There is one more thing. I think the Liang army is very likely to launch a surprise attack tonight."

When Mu Yanyu heard this, his expression suddenly became serious and he asked, "Why do you think so?"

Lu Tingyan took a deep breath, calmed herself, and then methodically told Mu Yanyu her detailed analysis of the current situation and her well-considered judgment.

Her speech is clear and fluent, her logic is rigorous, and every point she makes is well-founded and convincing.

After she finished speaking, she paused for a moment, then continued solemnly: "General, if the enemy dares to attack us at night, I happen to have a ready-made poison here that can be used unexpectedly to make the enemy lose their ability to resist in an instant."

Mu Yanyu frowned slightly and asked with some concern: "Isn't it inappropriate to use poison? After all, we have always won with fair tactics..." His eyes fell on the porcelain bottle with some doubt.

Lu Tingyan quickly explained: "General, please rest assured that the poison I prepared will not kill people. It will only make people fall into a short coma. Moreover, if the enemy can detect the situation in time and retreat quickly, then the damage they suffer will be relatively less. In this way, we can effectively resist the enemy's attack without causing too much killing."

Hearing this, Mu Yanyu pondered for a moment and felt that what Lu Tingyan said made sense.

In this cruel battlefield, sometimes you really need some extraordinary means to win. So he nodded and agreed: "Well, on the battlefield, swords are blind and life and death are unpredictable. Then do as the county lady said. But this matter must be handled with caution and no news must be leaked."

Seeing that Mu Yanyu agreed, Lu Tingyan couldn't help but feel relieved, and then said: "General, regarding this matter of poisoning, I hope you don't tell other generals, so as to avoid the news being leaked accidentally and the enemy army being prepared after knowing it."

Mu Yanyu nodded solemnly and said, "Of course, this general understands the interests involved and will keep his mouth shut."

After receiving Mu Yanyu's affirmative answer, Lu Tingyan saluted him and said, "In that case, I will go back to prepare for the relevant matters. If there are any new situations or changes, I will report to the general as soon as possible." After that, she turned and left, and her figure gradually disappeared outside the tent.

As night fell, the entire camp was silent, with only the occasional footsteps of patrolling soldiers.

Suddenly, there was a slight noise in the distance. The soldier on guard immediately became alert and blew the warning horn.

"The Liang army is attacking!" The shouts instantly broke the silence of the night.

Mu Yanyu quickly climbed up the city wall and saw the dark mass of Liang troops rushing in like a tide.

"Shoot!" Mu Yanyu gave the order, and the soldiers on the tower fired thousands of arrows at the enemy. They coated the arrows with poison, lit torches and shot them at the enemy.

The soldiers of the Liang army who were rushing in the front were shot and fell one after another, but the soldiers behind them still rushed forward fearlessly.

However, not long after, those Liang army soldiers who were not hit by arrows began to feel dizzy and fell to the ground unconscious.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the generals of the Liang army were shocked and said, "How could the Chu army have such a strange method?"

Nurgu's eyes widened with anger, and he growled with gnashing teeth: "Mu Yanyu, I didn't expect that a gentleman like you would resort to such despicable and shameless means!"

One of his men beside him asked cautiously: "General, do we still need to continue the attack now?"

Nurgu gripped the hilt of the sword tightly in his hand, pondered for a moment, then swung his arm violently and shouted, "Retreat!"

As his orders were issued, the Liang army, which had been so aggressive, retreated quickly like a tide.

On this side, the Chu army camp was full of jubilation, and everyone's face was filled with the joy of victory.

After the battle, Mu Yanyu came to Lu Tingyan and praised her generously: "County Lady, we were able to repel the Liang army so easily this time, all thanks to you. If it weren't for your help, the outcome of this battle would have been unpredictable."

Lu Tingyan smiled slightly and responded modestly: "General, you are too kind. If it weren't for the bravery of the soldiers who fought bravely, how could my little trick work? In the end, it is because of everyone's concerted efforts that we have achieved today's victory."

After this battle, the morale of the Chu army was greatly boosted. The soldiers were all eager to go out again and achieve more merits.

On the other hand, the Liang army suffered heavy casualties and was severely damaged.
